Chapter 129: What a big backer
"Xie Hong, are you in such a hurry?" The group walked quickly on the city wall, and Zhengde suddenly asked.
When he went up to the city wall, Xie Hong was not in a hurry and was quite calm, but at the moment, he was in a hurry and walked in the front. From the report sent by Qian Ning before, Zhengde has some understanding of Xie Hong, and his calm demeanor is one of the characteristics of this interesting person, and the contact in the past two days has also confirmed this.
At the Lantern Festival meeting yesterday, it was clear that the situation was unfavorable, but Zhengde didn't see Xie Hong panic at all, but calmly turned defeat into victory, Zhu Houzhao didn't realize the mistakes in this, but he glanced at Xie Hong again. Therefore, seeing Xie Hong's anxiety at this time, he couldn't help but be a little curious.
"Hui Shou Gongzi ......" Zhengde's identity is not easy to disclose, so Xie Hong also followed Qian Ning and others to call him a pseudonym.
"Although there are not many Tartars here, the damage that these barbarians incarnated by beasts can cause is extremely ......" Xie Hong has not experienced it personally, and he is not an angry youth in later generations, and he has no prejudice against the young people, but he still has a deep understanding of the Tartars of this era through various information.
After the strong man, the Central Plains began to weaken in the cannibalism, and all kinds of aliens took advantage of the weakness and committed countless crimes in the Central Plains. Whether it was the Xiongnu, the Turks, the Mongols or the Manchus, these barbarians never regarded the people of the Central Plains as human beings, and 'two-legged sheep' was their most commonly used name.
Because they did not regard the people of the Central Plains as human beings, they would not be soft at all when they committed crimes, and in the process when some so-called experts whose morals were completely degraded in later generations once said, 'it is difficult to say whether it is sad or joyful', the blood and tears of the people of the Central Plains are full of blood and hatred in this era.
It has nothing to do with future generations, at least in this era, the Tartars, who are bloody beasts, have no connection with the Central Plains, and the only way to treat them is to pick up the sword and kill them all.
Fortunately, Xie Hong remembered that Zhengde was also a hardliner, and saying that these would not disobey the boss, but would be a good opportunity to take the opportunity to instill some of his own opinions to the boss. Xie Hong didn't think about controlling Zhengde, but the subtle influence was necessary.
Zhengde was deeply convinced by his accusation of citing the past to prove the present. Zhengde, or every normal person in the Ming Dynasty, has no good impression of the Tatars. In the more than 200 years from the founding of the Ming Dynasty to its demise, the war with the Tatars has never stopped. ”
"That's true, I've also inspected Baoan Prefecture, and the defense there is indeed far from being as good as here in Xuanfu City, and it's really dangerous if the Tartars kill it." Zhengde nodded, and also gave examples of circumstantial evidence.
Qian Ning and Gu Dayong did not disagree with Xie Hong's point of view, but they were still very speechless about Zhengde's words, Long Live Lord was obviously just playing in Baoan Prefecture for a few days, and most of the time was still watching street performers.
"By the way, Xie Hong, you are so well-informed, I ask you something."
"Your Majesty, please ask." Zhu Houzhao's classmates often have no head or brain, and sometimes they will teleport, as a qualified worker, Xie Hong has to work hard to adapt.
"Do you know what's going on with a big rock in your chest? Hit it so hard, the stones were broken, but the person was fine, I was in the capital, ...... it turned out that Baoanzhou aroused Zhengde's heart, "Also, I saw in Baoanzhou, the man swallowed the sword in his stomach, I asked him, he didn't say ......"
Xie Hong couldn't cry or laugh, Zhu Houzhao's nerves were really thick, and when he was obviously very nervous, he was also indignant just now, but in a blink of an eye, he began to ask why.
"The big stone on the chest is broken because the stone is very large and heavy, so the power on the mallet cannot be transmitted to the person......" Xie Hong was very helpless to explain the physics knowledge at first, and when he saw Zhengde nodding, he explained: "Swallowing the sword is simple, because his sword is retractable...... "Can you tell others about people's ability to eat."
"Telescopic? Will you do it? I want a handful too. Zhengde's eyes lit up when he heard this. He was still a child, after all, and his perception of the Tartars was hearsay, and his attention was easily diverted.
Okay, isn't it just a retractable sword, brother is the best at making toys, Xie Hong nodded, and said: "This is easy, when the tartars are repulsed, Weichen will make one for you when he goes back." ”
"Then it's decided, I'll have to find a way to get rid of the damn Tartar." Zhengde nodded contentedly, and then said hatefully, I don't know if his resentment is due to hatred for Tartar, or because he wants to get the toy quickly.
Being interrupted by him, Xie Hong was not so anxious, he looked up and saw that the group had already arrived at Andingmen.
Because there are enemies outside, the atmosphere here in Andingmen is much more tense than Gaoyuanmen, and there are a lot more soldiers. When Xie Hong looked around looking for Zhang Jun, someone suddenly shouted loudly and blocked the way of several people.
"The chief soldier is here to supervise the battle, and the idle people are not allowed to approach."
The whole road was unimpeded, and when he was suddenly shouted, Xie Hong was also stunned, and the person in front of him was dressed brightly, but he was dressed as a personal soldier.
Without waiting for Xie Hong to speak, the soldier sneered again: "Gongzi Xie doesn't guard the teahouse, or goes to spread rumors, what are you doing here?" Isn't it to be a tartar? ”
"Me? Rumor-mongering? "Xie Hong is confused, this person has a bad attitude, eighty percent is because he has a bad relationship with Zhang Jun, but we haven't done such a thing as spreading rumors, could it be that this pro-soldier was also infected by Zhengde? Otherwise, how can you talk without boundaries.
"Gongzi Xie, Ming people don't do dark things, don't you dare to admit what you have done? You ......"
This pro-soldier is Zhang Jun's pro-soldier leader Zhang Yang, who can be the leader of the pro-soldiers, and he is naturally Zhang Jun's confidant. He knew what Zhang Jun was worrying about recently, in addition to the bad account in the Four Seas Gambling House, there was another thing, that is, the military salary that Jiang Bin begged for.
That matter was not a big deal, it was only about 20,000 taels of silver, and Mr. Zhang's share in it was even less, compared to the 30,000 taels in the Four Seas Gambling House, it was not worth mentioning at all.
But after that, there were rumors in the army, saying that Xie Hong Xie Qianhu thought of the hard work of the border soldiers, and would rather sell a treasure like a piano than help everyone ask for military salaries. Such rumors, coupled with the appearance of Jiang Bin's subordinates, tens of thousands of soldiers in the city were convinced, and Zhang Zongbing became a gang of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and his prestige naturally plummeted.
Zhang Jun was so angry after he knew it, it was obvious that the kid surnamed Xie used old things to cheat money, and he put himself on a hard show, but he had to sell well when he got cheap, and even the military heart had to be bought. He was very angry at home, if it weren't for Xie Hong's background, he would have the heart to knock on the door.
Zhang Yang is his confidant, so he naturally knows the troubles of the head of the family, and he also has the mind to share the worries of the head of the family. Seeing that Xie Hong actually dared to lead someone to the city today, he couldn't help but sneer.
He has been angry for a long time, and he doesn't shy away from it, wow, wow, If there is such a misunderstanding, Xie Hong may explain a few words, now? Hehe, he didn't have that time, and he didn't bother to explain, now it's different from the past, my brother's real backer has come.
Xie Hong didn't say much, he turned his head directly, made a look, and summoned Qian Ning.
Touched the nail twice in front, Qian Ning was depressed, and secretly scolded Li Qianhu in his heart, I don't know how this idiot got it, Jinyiwei has no prestige in Xuanfu City, and he is not even as good as Xie Hong, who opened a teahouse.
At this time, seeing Xie Hong's eyes, he was even more annoyed. The status of the two was very different before, and the few times they contacted him, they were all orders from above, and Xie Hong had to run because of his orders. When he discussed with Gu Dayong, he only regarded Xie Hong as an ordinary craftsman, and felt that even if Xie Hong had other skills, it should not threaten his status.
Unexpectedly, Xie Hong and Zhengde fell in love like this as soon as they met, and after only one night's hard work, the status of the two had been reversed, how could Qian Ning have no mustard in his heart.
He had the intention of embarrassing Xie Hong, and wanted to pretend that he didn't see it, but Zhengde's gaze also followed, and Qian Ning had no choice but to take out his waist card and step forward. He was still a little worried in his heart, if this person didn't recognize it again, and then asked Xie Hong to make a move, then his face would be lost.
Qian Ning's worries were unnecessary, and before he could show his waist card, Zhang Yang was dumbfounded. When Qian Ning came to Xuanfu last time, he saw Zhang Jun, and Zhang Yang was also with him as the leader of the pro-soldiers, so he knew Qian Ning. Just now when he saw Xie Hong, the enemy, Zhang Yang didn't pay attention to the others, and when he saw Qian Ning, he couldn't help but be shocked.
Isn't this the money lady who came from the last time I was fighting? I heard that it was Jinyiwei Tongzhi, a celebrity in front of the emperor, why did he follow behind the surname Xie Hong like a follower? Isn't the surname Xie just a fictitious household? Zhang Yang was a little messy, and asked in a trembling voice, "Are you Lord Qian?" ”
"Where is Zhang Jun?" Seeing that Zhang Yang knew himself, Qian Ning was relieved and regained his previous prestige.
"I don't know if the adults are coming, I miss the distance, and I still hope to ......"
"Okay, don't be verbose, take the official to see Zhang Jun." was ignored twice, and it was easy to meet someone who knew the goods, and Qian Ning trembled doubly.
“…… Yes, sir, please mark it down. Zhang Yang bowed sideways to lead the way in front, and couldn't help but rejoice, the head of the family is wise, the kid surnamed Xie really can't be provoked, and the backer behind him is called more! There are still books, and there are also the same knowledge, this is exposed, who knows if there is anything that has not been revealed?
"When did Lord Qian come to Xuanfu? I don't know if it's going to end. Zhang Jun was on the city gate tower, and someone had already told him what happened here, knowing that Qian Ning was coming, he didn't care about his dislike for Xie Hong, so he greeted him from afar.
"Zhang Jun, the Tartars are just outside the city, why don't you send troops?" To Zhang Jun's surprise, among the group, the first person to speak was not Xie Hong, nor Qian Ning, but a teenager younger than Xie Hong.
was accused by such a child's name, of course Mr. Zhang's face couldn't hold it, and he said coldly: "Where did the ignorant child come from, in front of Lord Qian and the general, how can there be a place for you to talk." ”
Because he saw that this young man and Qian Ning Xie Hong came all the way, he didn't know the identity of the other party, and he didn't say anything too ugly, but just scolded. When he looked up and wanted to talk to Qian Ning again, he saw that the other party's face suddenly became extremely bad, Zhang Jun was shocked, could it be that this young man was someone close to Master Qian?
He asked tentatively, "......Who is this little boy?"
"Mr. Zhang, you just need to send troops quickly, and destroy this dynasty, and the rest of the things should not be known, so don't ask more." Channing snapped. He is not a wild man like Xie Hong, he is very familiar with the rules in the palace, so before Zhengde spoke, he subconsciously did not speak, but Zhang Jun was disrespectful, which made him angry, and he was not very polite when he spoke again.
Zhang Jun didn't want to offend Qian Ning, so he reluctantly suppressed the anger in his heart and explained: "Lord Qian doesn't know, Tartar has always been cunning, often using a small group of men and horses to lure the enemy deeper, and then attack and kill ...... with ambushes."
"That's the way you lost last year?" Zhengde added fuel to the fire again.
That defeat was a pain in Zhang Jun's heart, he usually hated people to mention it the most, but remembering Qian Ning's power, he reluctantly suppressed it, and continued: "It's not that the general will not send troops, but you have to reconnoiter carefully before you can ......"
Originally, seeing Zhang Jun's respectful appearance to Qian Ning, Xie Hong thought that he would happily agree, who would have thought that this person would still shirk, seeing that the Tartars outside the city had begun to move eastward, he was in a hurry, and said:
"Lord Zhang, the Tartars are already going to the east, even if there is an ambush, it can't be in the east, why don't you send troops to destroy this small army first, at least drive them away." Otherwise, the eastern security state is unprepared......"
"Presumptuous! Xie Hong, you are a thousand households, what qualifications do you have to speak here? Zhang Jun only thought that Xie Hong was Qian Ning's entourage, and he had just accumulated a lot of anger, and then suddenly erupted.
"Who said Xie Hong is not qualified to speak? What he says always makes sense. But Zhang Jun, you first lost the battle and lost your division, and now you are afraid of the enemy like a tiger, you should first ask yourself if you are qualified to be this general soldier! Zhengde is a good boss, and without waiting for Xie Hong to speak, he preemptively retorted.
When Zhang Jun failed miserably last time, Zhengde was still the prince, but Hongji had already let him get in touch with political affairs at that time, so he was quite impressed by this matter, and he said it at this time.
"Lord Qian, is this how you restrain your subordinates?" Zhang Jun was furious, he couldn't care about Qian Ning's power anymore, and said coldly: "The general still wants to watch the enemy, Lord Qian, please take care of yourself." ”
He didn't expect to be able to deal with Xie Hong for a long time, this person had good luck and a lot of backers, so it was really difficult to deal with. Just can't you provoke and can't hide? Zhang Jun simply sent off the guests, anyway, this battle has nothing to do with Jinyiwei, and Xie Hong or Qian Ning can't use this matter to attack him.
After Zhang Jun finished speaking, he waited to brush his sleeves and left, but saw that someone on the city tower suddenly stumbled up, and he looked at it, and the person who came was wearing a second-grade official uniform, it was the governor Zhang Nai! He was overjoyed, could it be that the Tartars really had other arrangements? Otherwise, with Governor Zhang's calmness, how could he be so out of shape.
Without waiting for him to turn around for a second thought, he saw Zhang Nai flick his official robe and bow down directly to the young man he had just reprimanded.
"Zhang Nai, the governor of the Xuanfu, saw His Majesty, and the minister heard that His Majesty was coming to the Xuanfu, it was really overjoyed, but His Majesty's body of ten thousand gold, how could he be so neglectful, the ancients said: The son of a daughter can't sit down...... "At the conference last night, Zhang Nai saw Zhengde, but he didn't have a chance to step forward, and it was easy to see him again today, and the exhortation that he held back his stomach was endless.
He was here to advise, but Zhang Jun was stunned.
The military generals of the Ming Dynasty suffered a great loss after the civil fort, and the court began to pay attention to the civil and military affairs, and the noble and the military were cheap. Therefore, although he is also a second-class general soldier, in fact, his authority is far worse than that of the governor, not to mention that the local military and political affairs are under the jurisdiction of the governor, and the power of the governor is naturally far greater than that of him.
Therefore, Zhang Nai didn't inform Zhang Jun of the matter of Zhengde Qiao's family at all, and Zhang Jun didn't have any Olympic aid in the court, so he didn't know that there was such a thing, how could he not be shocked at this time?
The emperor's appearance in Xuanfu was already surprising, and what shocked Zhang Jun even more was that Xie Hong's backer appeared again, and it was very big, it was actually the emperor, who is this Xie Hong? The illegitimate son of the former emperor, otherwise where did he come from so many and such a weighty backer?
