"Come on, Brother Wang, passing by my Dongjiazhuang, I went in to sit down, and today the brothers drank a few glasses, and they didn't get drunk and didn't return.

The defense Lord Xu died of illness, and the officials of Shunxiang Fort went to the mourning hall to pay respects, and Wang Dou and Zhang Gui were no exception. It can be seen that Xu Zhongjun traveled extensively, and many officials not only in the state city, but also in the Acropolis. Xu Zucheng, the security officer of Baozhou City, also came in person, and shed tears in front of the mourning hall, which made the Xu family cry even more.

Unexpectedly, Baozhou Confucianism is Fu Mingqi also came, sent a pair of handwritten couplets, and mourned in front of the mourning hall, which was very enviable to the martial artists present.

Although he has not been formally appointed, Du Zhen already considers himself the defensive officer of Shunxiang Fort, and he is in charge of all the affairs of Shun Fort these times, and even Xu Zhongjun's funeral is also handled by him. At this point, Du Zhen did a good job, and handled things in an orderly manner, which made the ethics Xu Zucheng nod his head and greatly appreciated Du Zhen's ability.

In Xu Zucheng's view, Xu Zhongjun has always been his confidant, and Du Zhen is Xu Zhongjun's hand, so he is naturally regarded as a person of his own line, and he is usually respectful and polite to himself, and there is a lot of money for the New Year. Shunxiang Fort is in the hands of Du Zhen, and indirectly, it is also in his own hands. In his mind, this Du Zhen is already the best candidate to take over Shunxiangbao.

In Shunxiang Fort, Xu Zucheng saw Wang Dou who came to worship, he admired this young man very much, and he greatly comforted him at that time. At that time, Du Zhen also followed Xu Zucheng, and also praised Wang Dou in front of Xu Zucheng for a while. However, after the person, he looked at Wang Dou's gloomy gaze, intentionally or unintentionally, although Wang Dou's face was calm, but his heart was dark.

When Zhang Gui saw Xu Zucheng, he naturally tried his best to tie up Lord Ethics, but it can be clearly seen that although Lord Xu is also kind to him, he is far from being so close to Du Zhen, presumably the position of this defensive officer will definitely not be his turn Zhang Gui.

Coupled with Du Zhen's intentional or unintentional neglect of Zhang Gui, the arrogant appearance in front of him also made Zhang Gui resentful.

Xu Zucheng, Fu Mingqi and others went back on the same day, and Wang Dou and Zhang Gui and other officers of Shunxiang Fort stayed in the fort for several days.

In the past few days, Wang Dou can be said to have a very difficult life in Shunxiang Fort, not to mention that Du Zhen has a gloomy face towards him every day, that is, he is with his subordinates, such as Du Gong, Xiao Daxin, Wu Shan, every time he sees Wang Dou, he is always yin and yang, sneering.

Zhang Gui's face became redder the more he drank, and his eyes were bloodshot, while Wang Dou's eyes became sharper the more he drank, but his face was extremely blue.

Zhang Gui slammed the wine bowl on the table, and with a loud noise, a large piece of wine on the bowl spilled. The sound provoked the eyes of several people at the adjacent table, Zhang Tanggong waved his hand, and they continued to drink and eat meat.

Zhang Gui's face was flushed, and the short beard on his cheeks seemed to be in the halberd, and he scolded loudly with red eyes: "Du Zhen, what kind of thing is he?" Villain one! ”

He shouted: "Ungrateful, rat generation, without Lord Xu, he would be where he is today?" ”

"Lord Xu promoted him, see how he treated Lord Xu in the past. Now that the adult is dead, he can't wait to start plotting to seize the land and property of the orphans and widows of the Xu family again! ”

Wang Dou was shocked when he heard this, this was the first time he had heard the news. If so, this Du Zhen is too much.

Zhang Gui sneered: "In the past, when he was a hundred households, he held the position of a team officer, and he was like a dog in front of people, and he was also respectful in front of me. Now that it's reached, it's starting to be arrogant like a dog.

This seemed to involve the old grudge between Zhang Gui and Du Zhen, and Wang Dou just listened quietly.

The more Zhang Gui spoke, the more angry he became, and he shouted: "God is so unfair, in terms of qualifications, I am older than him Du Zhen, and in terms of ability, I will not be worse than him." Why can he be a defensive officer, but I can't? ”

He shouted loudly: "I don't dare to say what I will do with Shunxiang Fort after I become the defender, at least I will not be as narrow-minded as he is Du Zhen!" ”

Zhang Guidao: "A person like Brother Wang, if I become a defensive officer, I will definitely be reused." Needless to say, the position of the steward of Dongjiazhuang is yours, and the tun chief of Jingbian Fort is also let the elder brother concurrently serve as well. Now there are few people who can do things, and Dongjiazhuang is handed over to the elder brother, and the elder brother is also relieved! ”

Wang Dou said quietly: "I support you, brother." ”

He said to Han Chao: "Brother Han, you take some people to Shunxiang Fort to find out if this news is true." ”

The ROK solemnly agreed.

A few days later, there were constant rumors that Du Zhen, the temporary acting defense officer of Shunxiang Fort, said that Wang Dou, the official of Jingbian Fort, was outstanding, and intended to promote him to be reused.

The military households in Jingbian Fort also heard some rumors, everyone was flustered, they had just lived a good life under the leadership of Wang Dou, if Wang Dou was transferred, what would they do? Who knows what the new Shangguan is like.

The people in the fort are panicking, and these days the general flag official hall is full of military households in the fort who have come to listen to the news. Wang Dou only appeased the large and small military households in the fort, and the rumors were not credible, as the commander of Jingbian Fort, he would always be their commander.

Wang Dou let them just live and farm in peace in the castle, and let Qi Tianliang lead everyone to continue the autumn sowing without stopping.

……

On August 22, Han Zhong and Gao Shiyin also rushed over and asked Wang Dou if the news from Shunxiang Fort was true?

Wang Dou saw that Han Chao had returned from Shunxiang Fort, so he gathered a few henchmen to discuss the matter.

In Wang Dou's study, Han Zhong, Qi Tianliang, Yang Tong, Gao Shiyin, and Zhong Tiaoyang were all sitting upright, listening to Han Chao's report on what they had heard from Shunxiang Fort.

These people in the study are Wang Dou's henchmen in Jingbian Fort, as for Zhong Rong, he is a literati, and some things are inconvenient for him to hear. There are also Wang Tianxue and Li Maosen and others in the castle, who do not belong to Wang Dou's inner circle now.

Han Chao said: "The little one went to Shunbao for a few days, and according to the information that the little one heard, Lord Zhang Gui said that it was indeed the truth (). Xiao once listened to Wu Shan's words to his subordinates in the tea shop, saying that he would soon be transferred to Jingbian Fort to serve as the head of the tun, and then everyone would be transferred together, and everyone would eat and drink spicy. The little one also listened to Wu Shan's smug words, saying that the adults had offended him in the past, and now it was retribution and punishment, and he couldn't wait to see how the adults looked on the day of the transfer......"

There was a loud bang, but it was Han Zhong who kicked the chair in front of him away, and the chair flew against the wall, and it immediately fell apart.

He shouted and scolded: "What is Wu Shan? dedicated his sister-in-law to Du Zhen as a concubine, so he became Du Xiaoer's personal entourage, and he also deserved to be the commander of Jingbian Fort? This cowardly Lao Tzu wanted to beat him that day, what kind of bird is he, we work hard, and he dares to pick peaches? ”

Yang Tong and Qi Tianliang also shouted to Wang Dou: "My lord, this Jingbian Fort is our painstaking effort, every brick and tile, every acre of land, we have worked hard to build. If we transfer away, there will be nothing, and my lords should think of a way. ”

Zhong Tiaoyang sat silently, just looking at Wang Dou, Gao Shiyin next to him didn't say anything unexpectedly, just looked hideous, and didn't know what he was thinking.

Wang Dou sat calmly, and everyone below called for a long time, and finally quieted down, just looking at Wang Dou with his eyes to see what he did. In Jingbian Fort, Wang Douxiang is the backbone of everyone, and they only hope that Wang Dou will come up with an idea.

Wang Dou said lightly: "It's not impossible!" ”

With a porcelain cup in his hand, he stood up as if nothing had happened.

He walked back and forth in the study for a few steps, and suddenly sneered: "That Du really thinks that my Wang Dou is a person who can be rubbed by others." ”

There was a crisp sound, and it was Wang Dou who pinched the porcelain cup in his hand by mistake, and due to the excessive force, several pieces of porcelain were even deeply pierced into the flesh, and blood flowed out.

Wang Dou looked down at his hand for a while, he raised his head, his eyes were already gloomy and cold: "I will prove to him with facts that he is wrong!" ”
