Chapter 383: The Tiger of the Gate, Knowing Everything
It's still Zheng Wang's old-fashioned gossip?
Standing at the Donghua Gate, Xu Xun, who was wearing a unicorn white brocade robe embroidered on his chest and back, stood with his hands in his hands, feeling quite relieved in his heart. In his opinion, this momentum also has to have the purpose of building momentum, that is, wave by wave step by step, and you have to find a good entry point, and last time Zheng Wang kept saying that Zhu Houzhao was born to his own daughter Wang's daughter, but this time there was a hell of a mother of the country, Zheng Niangniang, the level of this rumor-monger is too low, right? The only thing worth saying is that people also seized the opportunity of the Zhang family, the Marquis of Shouning, to think that the little emperor was also not waiting to see the Zhang family, and wanted to take advantage of his illness to kill him.
Xu Xun stood there thoughtfully, but behind him, a pair of eyes stared at him with admiration. I don't know how long it took, Xu Xun twisted his neck slightly, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the little general flag standing straight behind him staring at him, he was stunned for a moment and laughed, so he ordered someone to step forward.
"If you can catch that annihilation today, you should be the first to take credit."
The little general flag's face turned red, and then he knelt down on one knee and performed a military salute that could not be more standard: "It is all taught by adults, and the love of Lord Qian and Ma Qianhu, and I dare not take credit for my humble duties." ”
This standard of humility made Xu Xun even more embarrassed, waved his hand and ordered people to get up, and looked at this little general flag for a while, only then did he find that this young man had red lips and white teeth, and was extremely handsome, if he dressed up with some rouge gouache, others would inevitably mistake him for a woman. However, he looked at it twice, but the little general banner's face turned red for a while, and he suddenly raised his head and said: "My lord Mingjian, the lowly students look like this, but the lowly martial arts and riding skills are all excellent!" ”
"Did I say that you are not good at martial arts?" Xu Xun smiled slightly, and when he saw that the little general flag was stunned for a while, he smiled and said, "It's not a big deal to be a boy or a girl, I think that the king of Lanling was said to have a soft face back then, but it turned out that he was not a famous generation of famous generals on the battlefield?" ”
Xu Xun just said it casually, but the little general banner mistakenly thought that Xu Xun was using the king of Lanling to inspire himself, and he was even more excited for a while, and he couldn't speak. Seeing that his face turned red several times after seeing him, Xu Xun stopped teasing this young man, turned his head to face the palace, and then asked: "Your general banner should have been newly promoted, in the past, I often summoned officers above the general banner to discuss matters in the vanguard of the government army, and I shouldn't have seen you." ”
"Yes. Now that the avant-garde structure of the government army is gradually complete, there were also incompetent general banners and small banners before, so Lord Qian and Ma Qianhu have changed people three times before and after. The humble post was promoted to the general banner only half a month ago, and the fifty people under the leadership of the leader. ”
"Speaking of which, you haven't reported yourself yet."
Hearing Xu Xun ask such a question, Xiao Zongqi suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Humble Cao Mi!" ”
"Cao Mi ......" There has been no letter from the palace for a long time, Xu Xun and others are also waiting, and the surname Suo asked without looking back, "Since you have entered the avant-garde of the government army, you want to be a military household in your family, but since you were not in the regular army before, do you still have a father and brother in the military at home?" He asked casually, but he didn't answer for a long time, and he couldn't help but look back in amazement, but saw Cao Mi standing there with an embarrassed face, neither like what he said touched the hidden pain in his heart, nor like there was something unspeakable, but like something was punctured. Thinking that he had been deceived by a girl in the family, he sank his face.
"Why, is there anyone else in your family that you can't talk to?"
"No, no, no......"
Cao Mi hurriedly shook his head again and again, and after a while, he hesitated and said, "My father just asked me to stay in the capital to practice martial arts and study, and when the time comes, whether to enter the country or seek a military position, and then it depends on the situation." It was the first to see the young army recruited by the avant-garde of the government army, and after the training of the imperial army, all of them were awarded the people with swords, and I heard that the adults were strict in governing the army, and I was very envious, so I quietly hid from my father and his old man, and used the name of my uncle's family to register for the second batch of recruited young soldiers...... My lord, since he entered the vanguard of the government army, he has been diligent and hardworking, and he has never slacked off......"
If it weren't for Cao Mi who put martial arts training in front of his studies, Xu Xun would almost think that he had a reading seed mixed in the avant-garde of the government army. Crying and laughing, he had to put on a straight face and ask a few more questions, and when he asked the origin, the expression on his face was so strange and strange for a while.
I thought that this little guy was also a hereditary officer's son, but who knew that this was not a small one - this boy and girl Cao Mi was the second son of Cao Xiong, the deputy chief soldier of Yansui! No wonder you can distinguish so clearly when you check the ebony card in Dong'anlimen, and you can also react correctly when you encounter such an emergency.
"Thanks to your father's teaching!" Xu Xun nodded appreciatively, and seeing that Cao Mi was a little panicked, he smiled and said, "Don't panic, since you have entered the avant-garde of the government army, you are not lazy and exterminatory, but you are just hiding it from your father, and I will write to him when I go back?" This time, you have made such a great achievement, and when the time comes, you will not be rewarded, even if your father knows about it, he will only have a light on his face! ”
Now Xu Xun has established a deep relationship with Zhang Jun, the chief soldier of Xuanfu, and Zhuang Jian, the chief soldier of Datong, and Yang Yiqing, who served as the chief of the trilateral system of Yansui and Ningxia in Gansu this time, also has a good relationship with him, so since Cao Mi took the initiative to send it to the door, Xu Xun naturally would not push such an opportunity to his lips. When he saw that it was Ruisheng who came to deliver the decree, and said that Zhu Houzhao was still seeing him in the Chengqian Palace, he glanced back at Cao Mi, who was a little disappointed, and immediately asked with a smile: "Can the emperor mention the hero who found out the traitor who entered Dong'anmen without permission today?" ”
Rayson has not been in the palace for a day or two, and is naturally better at adapting than before. He glanced at Xu Xun, and then at Cao Mi, who was full of anticipation on his face, and then lowered his head and said: "The emperor mentioned it, saying that he can be so meticulous at a young age, and he will definitely be a promising talent in the future, and he also said that it is indeed right to hand over the defense of the palace city to the avant-garde of the government army." ”
Secretly praised Ruisheng's knowledge and interest, Xu Xun smiled and encouraged Cao Mi a few more words, and sent Cao Mi, who was red with excitement on his face, back to Dong'an Limen, he followed Ruisheng into Donghua Gate, and then said in a low voice: "Three days are not seen, Ruisheng, thanks to you and I singing and harmonizing, let me turn into a good talent again." ”
Latham is not by Xu Xun's side now, and it is rare to hear such a compliment, and I only feel happy in my heart. There were only a lot of people on the road, and he didn't look like he was too close to Xu Xun, until he turned into Xierchang Street, because he was close to the place where the royal car was, there were obviously fewer people, and he said that he had just been in front of the little emperor, Liu Jin and Gu Da were blocked by Qi Qi, and when he really entered the Chengqian Palace, he didn't say a word more, and sent people into the main hall and stood under the corridor.
Liu Jin and Gu Da said all the bad things, but they couldn't let Zhu Houzhao dispel the idea of the royal driver's personal trial, and as soon as Xu Xun arrived, the two couldn't help but drag him together. However, in the face of Zhu Houzhao, who had a bad face, Xu Xun listened to Ruisheng talk about the situation here, so he naturally would not go back to the old path of the two of them stupidly.
"It's just an insignificant little role, it's very easy for the emperor to personally interrogate, but if it really makes a big fuss, and the ministers make noise again, then it will be like Zheng Wang and others, and it will drag on for so long before the Fa is corrected, then the gains will outweigh the losses." Speaking of this calmly, seeing that Zhu Houzhao really hesitated, and Liu Jin and Gu Dayong were secretly giving him a thumbs up on the other side, he said with a smile, "The case was originally strange, and the first emperor traced it to an abrupt end halfway, but now that there is such an opportunity, and there is Gu Gonggong in the West Factory, I will go to check it down, and maybe there will be a good result." As for the trial of the exterminators, the Criminal Department has just replaced Jiao Butang, who knows the matter, and it is certainly appropriate for him to come to the trial. ”
Gu Dayong had the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, so he was naturally satisfied, and Liu Jin heard Xu Xun push Jiao Fang out, and the most unsettling worry was also gone for a while, and he immediately showed a smile, and everyone was happy. And Zhu Houzhao tilted his head and thought about it, feeling that Gu Dayong was credible, and Jiao Fang had also done a few things in recent times, so he nodded reluctantly.
"Forget it, then do as you say...... By the way, how is the Zheng San of the Shouning Marquis Mansion doing now? ”
After Zheng San snatched it out of the East Factory, Liu Jin, the internal official eunuch, directly put people in the prison of the internal official prison where Zhang Yu, Liu Wentai and others had been detained before. At this moment, when he heard the little emperor ask, he rushed in front of Gu Dayong and said with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty, everything has been tried. It was this guy who was greedy for the 10,000 taels of benefits of the annihilation businessman, so he helped the annihilation merchant to hide from the world and the sea with shoddy goods, and it was none of the business of Shou Ninghou. ”
"It's really none of Shou Ninghou's business?"
Zhu Houzhao frowned and asked, seeing that Liu Jin insisted that it had nothing to do with Shou Ninghou, he glanced at Gu Dayong again. Since Liu Jin said so, Gu Dayong naturally wouldn't offend Empress Dowager Zhang, so he didn't mention it. And Zhu Houzhao was silent for a while, and suddenly said lazily: "In this case, you two should step aside, one will go to interrogate the exterminator named Wang Xi, and the other will go to Jiao Fang of the Criminal Department to squeak...... By the way, don't forget to ask Jiao Fang, I promised Tang Yin and Xu Jing to return his fame and make him move faster. Xu Xun, you stay, I have something to discuss with you, the golden wire cage that was just made up before was smashed by me, you have to help me think about what to send to coax the queen mother......"
However, when Liu Jin and Gu Dayong went down, Zhu Houzhao put away the indifference on his face, stared at Xu Xun with a straight face and asked, "Xu Xun, tell me that Shou Ninghou was really completely wronged?" ”
