"It's Wang Kaimei and Lu Jianbai, the two of them were on duty yesterday, with Chen Zhenhui's group of people, I'm afraid they haven't slept all night!"

Qian Qianyi smiled, stretched out his hand to make a guest gesture, and said to Ma Shiying: "Please!" ”

Ma Shiying did not move, and glanced at the iron sign erected in front of the gate of the Military Affairs Department, which read, "Military and civilian people and other trespassing non-military affairs personnel will not be forgiven", and then raised his feet to enter.

This is almost separated from the Qianqing Palace by a few walls, originally just an ordinary house attached to it, about the original palace room to pile up sundries or eunuchs to rest, under Chen Zilong's efforts, the time is very short, but also to grab a large well-framed place for the national center to come out.

The main hall of the bright and dark four, on both sides is a long room for the housekeepers and the officials, everywhere there are lights and candles, and the utensils are all new furnishings to create a new one, not a high-quality wood, but the simplicity and generosity of the building, and the layout is very large, it is really a grand atmosphere that only has a center.

However, there are people running through the cabinet and the military affairs office, the cabinet is luxurious and more than flamboyant, just a long slippery straight to the top of the large bookshelf is not the military affairs office, and the military affairs office is simple, and the utensils are more attentive than the cabinet, when it is a house in the west hanging more than two people high wooden map is not the cabinet can compare, and the crown prince is still sending Western missionaries out, everywhere to explore and measure, preparing to make a large sand table wooden map along the river in the military affairs office...... This alone, even the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies is far from comparable.

From the Yongdao all the way forward, there were handymen in front of the main hall who had already seen it, and the two handymen opened the door curtain one left and one right, and someone shouted: "Lord Qian has arrived!" ”

"And Ma-sama!"

Qian Qianyi's face was pleasant, and he laughed and said: "Kaimei, see Bai, come out quickly, our Prime Minister and Minister of War can be regarded as here!" ”

Without saying a word, Ma Shiying has been damaged, which can be regarded as the reward of Ma Shiying's arrogant attitude just now.

The two people inside ignored Qian Qianyi's thoughts, and when they heard his words, there were two "oops" inside, and when they looked at it again, the two people in scarlet robes had already strode out!

Wang Jiayan and Lu Zhenfei are much later than Ma Shiying, one is in the early years of the Apocalypse, and the other is a Jinshi in the fifth year of the Apocalypse.

When they met, it was naturally Wang Jiayan and Lu Zhenfei who saluted first, and then said, "Did the old-timers just arrive?" Yesterday I inquired that I was still on the way, did I enter the city last night? ”

"No, I entered the city tonight, and then I came directly to the palace! The two of you, you don't have to be polite, you will be colleagues in the future, and you have to work together heartily! "Ma Shiying is much more polite to these two people, Wang Jiayan is already in the center, serving as a squire in the military department, Jian is in the heart of the emperor, and the defense of the Beijing division is the deputy Rong Zheng, but this officialdom is not weaker than Ma Shiying. This time, if it weren't for Shi Kefa's way, it would definitely become the main hall of the military department.

As for Lu Zhenfei, his qualifications and official positions are much weaker, but he has done a very good job in Huaifu, so Ma Shiying is particularly blue-eyed.

Hearing him say this, the two looked at each other, both of them seeing the meaning in each other's eyes.

Entering the city in the middle of the night, it was obviously a forcible opening of the city gate, and the domineering state was fully revealed. Not to mention anything, the city defense is also useless, if there are thieves or captives, deceive the door as the minister of state, isn't it a deception?

It was at this time that the two uncles who were in charge of the affairs of the capital and were responsible for the defense of the outer city of Nanjing were no longer allowed to be in the Military Affairs Department!

Lu Zhenfei asked tentatively: "Did the old-timers come with the superintendent?" ”

Ma Shiying looked up and smiled: "What kind of person am I when I see white?" Is there any minister who enters the pilgrimage and enters the capital with soldiers and horses? My superintendent has been left to Huang Degong, and Huang Chuangzi is quite effective in fighting and reliable. It is much better to strengthen him than to hand it over to the governor who will take over. What the old man brought was just more than 300 pro-soldiers, why, seeing that they were suspicious, what could they do to make a big rebellion? ”

"Of course, more than 300 soldiers can't do anything, but the old-timers, Yue Baixing sparsely took his own soldiers to hurry, entered the city in the middle of the night, and entered the palace in the unknown sky and forbade him to come to face the saint to see the driver, this diligence, the students are very impressed."

Lu Zhenfei's words, Piri Yangqiu, is actually very dissatisfied. It's just the first time we met, and the other party is the cardinal's figure, so it's not good to lose face.

They are all from Jiuzhen, and when he speaks, he is much better than Wang Jiayan.

"Hehe, how dare you, how dare you!"

Ma Shiying was also obviously aware of the dissatisfaction of the two military ministers. He also regretted it a little at this time, did he act too much? After all, it seems that the rules in Nanjing City are much bigger.

However, he is also a very arrogant person, Lu Zhenfei does not accuse but accuses, and Wang Jiayan's face became very ugly, and he raised his head at the moment and ignored it.

At this very embarrassing moment, Wu Weiye came in like a cat in a hurry, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he first asked for a sign, and then said with a smile: "Why are the ministers talking outside the door?" Called the handymen to see the joke! By the way, the emperor is already in the palace, since they are all outside, I see, let's go and wait for the drive! ”

As soon as he interrupted like this, the somewhat dignified atmosphere disappeared, everyone listened, and sure enough, they heard the sound of the cloud board, and it was indeed Chongzhen who had already gotten up and approached the court.

"Okay, let's go meet the saint."

Ma Shiying is the chief military minister, as soon as he spoke, everyone had nothing to say, and at the moment they were slightly dressed, led by Ma Shiying, and everyone rushed towards the Qianqing Palace together.

At this time, the sky is cloudy and bright, and the vision is not very clear, but when everyone rushed to the Qianqing Palace, it was already bright and transparent, and under the palace steps, there were full of eunuchs wearing Yuan Qing and Azure Trolling, and they saw the military ministers coming from a distance, and all the eunuchs bowed their heads and saluted the ministers together.

"This?"

It was the first time for Ma Shiying to see this kind of scene, and she was stunned for a while, but she actually stopped and didn't dare to continue walking.

"Lord Ma, please do it." Wu Weiye is the most shallow in terms of age and qualifications among the Minister of War, so after running, he is considered to be a miscellaneous member of the Minister of War, but fortunately, he is young and has good legs and feet, and it is not in the way of running a few steps, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said to Ma Shiying: "Now I and the crown prince have cut this generation, and now it is just a battle for sprinkling and sweeping, no matter how many official positions are given, it is not allowed to wear black yarn, nor is it allowed to fight against the minister." When you see that the petty officials can still be peaceful, when you see us, you can only carry out this battle and perform this salute. ”

"Good, good!"

Although he knew that the eunuch had been kicked out of the center of power, Ma Shiying was also extremely happy at this time. When he raised his feet to the front of the Qianqingmen Palace, he suddenly saw that the eunuch who led the lead was the former eunuch Lu Jiude of the Fengyang Prison Army, when he was in Fengyang, although Ma Shiying was in power and held the military power, and he was the arch guard of the half of the Jiangnan wall, but when facing Lu Jiude, he was still very polite with the eunuch of the prison army, and he had to send bribes frequently, otherwise, he could win or lose the battle if he won the battle.

Now this eunuch went to stand honestly in front of the temple gate, and when he saw him coming, he didn't even dare to raise his head.

Ma Shiying was very proud in his heart, glanced at Lu Jiude from the corner of his eye, and then calmed down until the door of the hall was opened, and Lu Jiude said loudly: "The holy car has arrived, and the ministers of military affairs kneel!" ”

"Wait, welcome the holy driver!"

"Flat, all come in!"

Ma Shiying has seen the driver several times, but he has never been summoned alone, and in today's situation, he has suddenly become a very important minister, even if he is not facing the saint alone, the tension in his heart is not comparable to when he saw the driver.

I got up in a hurry, I didn't know what I said, and then hurried in.

Chongzhen was already sitting on the golden platform in the bright room of the Qianqing Palace, and when he saw Ma Shiying coming in, he was also slightly surprised, and when the five military ministers all stood on the side of the golden platform, he spoke: "Mr. only returned to Nanjing last night?" ”

"Yes, after the edict was served, the starry night said, I didn't dare to delay, and yesterday I entered the city overnight."

"Very good, sir, really hard!"

Chongzhen was very happy. At this time of the imperial rule, it was not uncommon for government orders to be carried out and military orders were not smooth, and under the emperor's orders, there were many people who dared to disobey orders.

The scholar Li Jiantai did not dare to supervise the army, and even dared to attack the city on his own side, and slaughtered the city to vent his hatred.

Yu Yinggui, the squire of the military department, did not dare to serve as the governor of Shaanxi, and relied on not taking office.

With such various acts, there are countless victories, and they dare to disobey orders, not to mention that after taking orders, Starry Night rushed to contribute to the country. Therefore, after Chongzhen heard this, he was indeed very happy.

Seeing the emperor like this, Ma Shiying was naturally very proud, and just wanted to say something, but the corner of his eye was to see a young junior looking at himself with a smile, the weather was not very hot, but this young man was sweating on his head, under a black satin rattan hat with Dongzhu, on his forehead and face, there were beads of sweat the size of beans!

He is not much taller than ordinary people, but his shoulders are extremely broad, and his body is also very upright, so he looks heroic and beautiful.

The clothes are ordinary cyan arrow clothes, but there is a sword inlaid with rubies hanging from the waist, which seems to be a very precious treasure.

Looking at the face again, it is thick eyebrows and big eyes, the bridge of the nose is high, although the appearance is slightly similar to the current emperor, but looking at the temperament of the eyebrows, it is a little similar to Emperor Xuanzong.

This young man, who can calmly enter the hall with a sword, must be the crown prince Zhu Cihong!

Seeing that the other party was smiling and looking at himself, while hurriedly kneeling down and saluting, Ma Shiying secretly said in his heart: "No wonder everyone says that the crown prince resembles a Xuan Temple, and his heroic posture is extraordinary. ”

Ma Shiying secretly sighed in his heart, the crown prince was also busy turning sideways, not daring to accept the courtiers in front of the emperor, such a trouble, but Chongzhen also saw the crown prince who walked into the palace, and said with joy: "The crown prince and the prime minister and the minister of military affairs have arrived together, and it is really good luck today, I also have important things to announce to you!" ”
