Chapter 20: Jahanru
On the eighteenth day of August in the year of Kuiwei, when the morning star in the sky had not yet fallen, the sound of drums and bells spread throughout the palace and outside, whether it was the eunuchs and palace maids, or the guards and brocade clothes, all of them hurriedly got up. Today is the day of the palace examination of the new science and technology jinshi, as a major event as a country and the sacrificial ceremony, everyone does not dare to relax in the slightest in a few days, even the ground in front of the palace gate has been swept several times with sprinkler water.
Sitting on a somewhat dilapidated bullock cart, listening to the crunch of the axles, After returning from Wanshou Temple on August 15, for the promise that may never be realized, Shi Lei has been forgetting to sleep and eating for a few days, writing a plan, and re-cracking all the things that I still remember about Daming in my head, hoping to see the clues of saving Daming, but, it is a pity that no matter from that aspect, wanting to save the current Daming is tantamount to picking stars in the sky and fishing for the moon in the sea。
"Young master, young master, it's time for us to get out of the car when we get to the gate of the imperial city." Shi Lei, who was falling asleep and returning to sleep, suddenly heard the screams outside the car, woke up suddenly, and at the same time opened the cart of the ox cart and bowed out.
Although the sky is still dark, but at this time at the entrance of the palace, it is already very lively, in addition to a group of Jinshi wearing blue Jinshi uniforms chatting in twos and threes, there are actually many hawkers, carrying food boxes in their hands, carrying flat shoulders on their shoulders, selling here.
Seeing the lively scene in front of him, Shi Lei, who was still a little sleepy, suddenly woke up, he originally thought that this should be a very solemn and solemn scene, even if it is not like a queue in the future or something, at least he should wait quietly, but he didn't expect it to be like this here.
"Brother Erdan, since you have arrived, you should go back first, I don't know when I will be able to come out, besides, my sister-in-law has just given birth, you should go back to take care of it." Although he was surprised in his heart, Shi Lei didn't take it seriously, and at the same time turned to Shi Erdan, who was driving the ox cart for him, and said.
"Ah, no, no, no, no need, young master, you don't have to worry about me, I'll just wait here, when I come, my father ordered, I will give you a car today." After listening to Shi Lei's words, Shi Erdan hurriedly shook his head and said.
As one of the people who grew up with Shi Lei since he was a child and is also one of the best people in the Shi family to him, Shi Lei has a natural sense of closeness to Shi Erdan in his heart, so after listening to Shi Erdan's words, he did not refute it, he knew what Fu Bo meant, Fu Bo hoped that he could carry Shi Erdan, after all, if Shi Erdan was in the Shi family, he was just a house slave, and if he followed Shi Lei, who was about to become an official, although he was also a slave, his identity was not comparable to that of the Shi family's slaves, and for this situation, Shi Lei, who has been in this world for a few years, has already expected it after he was admitted to the Jinshi.
"Well, since you don't go back, you'll go to the surrounding shops and drink tea, although it's August now, the sun is still relatively scorching." While speaking, Shi Lei took out a handful of copper coins from his sleeve, handed it to Shi Erdan, and then turned around and left.
Holding a handful of bright copper coins in his hand, although Shi Erdan wanted to say something, he never said it.
It was still dark, and Shi Lei didn't have any contact with other Jinshi, so when he got down from the ox cart, he went directly to a no-man's corner, wanting to recalculate the plan he thought of yesterday to see if there was any hope of success.
"Hey, this young brother is invited, in Xia Jia Hanru, a person from Jincheng, Shanxi, dare to ask the young brother is" Just when Shi Lei was making a plan, a greeting came from his ears, and when he heard the words, Shi Lei was stunned for a moment, and then he saw a person in a blue jinshi uniform, about forty years old, and a person with a bow on his back was standing in front of him, and, judging from the greeting he just had, this is a sober-minded person who knows the art of speaking very well.
"Ah, I don't dare to respect Brother Nian, in Xia Shilei, he is a person from the capital, but, dare to ask Brother Nian, have we ever seen it?" Although Shi Lei was polite, his heart was full of vigilance, after all, wouldn't you be surprised that someone suddenly stepped forward to talk to you?
"Ah, blame Jia for being presumptuous, Brother Shi may not have seen me, but I have seen Brother Shi, at the door of the Mid-Autumn Festival Wanshou Temple, Brother Shi just happened to talk with a few companions, and Jia followed behind Brother Shi, therefore, just now after seeing Brother Shi coming alone, I came to say hello to Brother Shi, after all, I waited for the same year that I was on the list at the same time, and in the future, there are still a lot of times when we need to support each other, and there is no harm in being able to know each other early."
This Jia Hanqing is definitely a thoughtful and good at observing words and feelings, Shi Lei's face just leaked a trace of strangeness, and he guessed what Shi Lei thought in his heart.
"Oh, ah, it turned out to be Brother Jia, I didn't expect Brother Jia's memory to be so good, I can remember it when I see him, my little brother is really ashamed!" Seeing this Jia Hanqing directly say the reason why he had seen him, Shi Lei knew that what he said to Zhu Weiyuan at that time must have been heard by this person, and this person is now so enthusiastic about wanting to get closer to him, it must also be the reason for those words, fortunately, he didn't say anything excessive at that time, and he was not afraid of being known.
With the addition of Jia Hanru, Shi Lei didn't have time to think about any plans, and began to talk with Jia Hanru, this talk, Shi Lei suddenly felt that this Jia Hanru was really unusual, not to mention the shortcomings of the current court, the understanding of the people's suffering, and even the advantages and disadvantages of several forces in the world, he also analyzed the head of the Tao, in addition to underestimating the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the rest are almost the same as Shi Lei, who understands the history of later generations, so that Shi Lei's wariness of him is slowly eliminated.
"So, Brother Shi, don't look at the current strength of the thieves, what do you say about the millions of soldiers, it is all rootless wood and sourceless water, it is only by virtue of his personal prestige that Kankan suppressed the unruly leaders under him, if at this time, someone can defeat him once in the front, then he is like a mud man in a puddle, quickly dissolving, but, unfortunately, the current court is not to mention defeating the thief, not even the person who dares to fight against the thief.
It's a pity that Zuo Liangyu has nearly 200,000 soldiers and horses, but he is mediocre and incompetent, he only knows how to preserve his strength, but he has no determination to fight the thieves. After chatting with Shi Lei for a short time, Jia Hanru said something about fighting against the peasant army.
After listening to Jia Hanru's words, Shi Lei's heart couldn't help but be surprised, what Jia Hanru said was indeed right, Li Zicheng looked really strong, but it was indeed vulnerable, after the defeat of Beijing City, and the Qing army that entered the customs After a fierce battle, the entire Dashun Group collapsed in an instant, faster than when he just started, he was defeated and retreated faster, and in the end, he actually died on the local armed forces, but unfortunately, it was not the emperor who saw this phenomenon in power above the court, the elder and the general, is a jinshi like him, Shi Lei said that he has to sigh at the impermanence of fate here.
"Oh, according to Brother Jia's words, the thief should be a paper tiger, but it's a pity that even if the imperial court wants to send troops to recruit the thief, it is already powerless, but I don't know what Brother Jia's good plan is." Shi Lei also sincerely sought advice.
"Paper tiger, okay, it is really an image to describe the thief like this, since Brother Shi wants to ask me about my strategy, there is only one way for my brother, that is, recruiting and training soldiers." Jia Hanqing praised Shi Lei's analogy before he said directly.
"Where to recruit troops and how to train them."
"The land of Guanzhong, since ancient times, is the backbone of China, with the wonder of a high house, in addition to since ancient times, this place is a place where soldiers must fight, so, the strength here, is the best soldier in the world, Qin Shi Black Armor Army, a war to destroy the Six Kingdoms, Tang Xuantian Army, fighting the princes of the Eighteen Roads, therefore, if you can recruit troops and buy horses in the land of Guanzhong, order to send a member of the army to train the army, not more than a year, when the training has been invincible in the world." After listening to Shi Lei's questioning, Jia Hanru didn't even think about it, so he said the solution.
After listening to Jia Hanru's words, if it wasn't for the wrong place, Shi Lei had a feeling of seeing Zhuge Liang doing "Longzhong Pair" in the thatched hut back then, if Shi Lei was Emperor Chongzhen, and heard such words, maybe the Ming Dynasty really rose again, but, it is a pity that Shi Lei is a powerless and powerless little jinshi, and Jia Hanru, who said this, can be seen from the fact that he was nearly forty years old and had just entered the Shi and the first, and it can be seen that this is also a ** silk without a background.
At this time, Shi Lei no longer has any defense against Jia Hanru in his heart, a person who can have this kind of insight and this kind of strategy will definitely not be a villain, besides, Shi Lei has nothing to do with him.
After there was no estrangement in his heart, Shi Lei also made up his mind to make this friend, and then, he saw him bow respectfully to Jia Hanru, and then said, "Brother Jia is knowledgeable, and his strategy is really the first person that the younger brother usually has ever seen. ”
"Ah, don't dare to be, don't dare to be, I am the one who heard Brother Shi's precise remarks, and only came here today, just to be able to get acquainted with Brother Shi, but, I didn't expect that I and Brother Shi would fall in love so much, it was really the fate of what I was waiting for!" While supporting Shi Lei, he explained.
The second chapter arrives, and it's not too late.
