Zhu Youzhang's consideration is half a month, and Zhang Ru has been quite idle in this half month, urging Ma Tongpao and Tu Hu to study in the Hou Mansion every day, and communicating with the two boys to communicate their thoughts by the way.

However, in the past half a month, Fan Tong, who heard the news, rushed back from Datong in a hurry, Zhang Ru asked him why he did not act without an order, and he said that I am the personal guard of the adult, and I will go wherever the adult goes.

For this upright man, Zhang Ru really couldn't get angry, and finally kicked Wang Zhou, the guy who leaked the secret, to Datong.

On the third day of the fifth month of the second year of Hongzhi, at the court meeting, Zhu Youzhu officially agreed to Zhang Ru's resignation as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and confirmed Mu Bin as the new commander of the Jinyi Guard.

That night, Mu Bin went to the Hou Mansion drunk and asked to see Zhang Ru by name.

Jiang Wei saw that he had drunk a lot, and persuaded: "Master Mu, you are drunk, let's go back and rest first!" ”

"Old Jiang, do you all already know the plans of the adults? Hehe, all the fucking ones are hiding from Lao Tzu, secretly wilting, even you, a well-known honest person, know that you rode on Lao Tzu's head to shit and pee. keeps saying that he is his own brother, his grandmother is a bear, you and Zhang Wenxuan are one of them, and they have never regarded Lao Tzu as their own. Mu Bin, who had a blush on his face, scolded, and spat on Jiang Wei's face.

Jiang Wei was quite spittle, and let Mu Bin grab him and scold, and he didn't speak, just stood there with his upper body straight.

Mu Bin scolded for a while, but he had no intention of leaving, but Jiang Wei was pulled by him and slowly walked into the Hou Mansion.

There were still a few paths away from the study, and Jiang Wei grabbed Mu Bin: "Master Mu, you are really drunk, Master Hou has already rested, or you will come back tomorrow!" ”

"Fuck off, Lao Tzu is now the commander of the Jinyi Guard, you are just a small thousand households, what qualifications do you have to say this to me. I want to see Zhang Wenxuan, and Lao Tzu wants to ask him if he regards the so-called ideal as a **** that anyone can go on. He easily put aside the cleanliness of the fall, and put everything on Lao Tzu, why! Mu Bin shouted loudly with bloodshot eyes.

Zhang Ru, who had already known about Mu Bin's arrival but avoided it, heard Mu Bin's scolding words clearly, and after a while, he heard Mu Bin's voice getting closer and closer to the study, and he had no choice but to walk out.

After only walking out for a dozen steps, I saw Mu Bin raising his hand and patting Jiang Wei's face, staggering and muttering nonsense.

Zhang Ru's face turned cold, and he walked over quickly.

As soon as he saw Zhang Ru appear, Mu Bin immediately came to his senses: "Zhang Wenxuan, tricked Lao Tzu into entering the East Division's room, and then said that he was going to do something in the prosperous Ming Dynasty, and now he has become a turtle." Lao Tzu beat you to death and let you lie to Lao Tzu. ”

Mu Bin, who was a little delirious by alcohol, raised his hand and aimed it at Zhang Ru's face, this slap was not fast, and Zhang Ru's skills could completely dodge it, but he didn't think about dodging it at all, but took this slap solidly.

This slap stunned everyone present, and then, Mu Bin stood in place with a sluggish expression, and Fan Tong raised his leg and kicked on Mu Bin's knee.

Zhang Ru said expressionlessly: "Jiang Wei, let him sober up." ”

Jiang Wei, who was lame, walked like a fly, and without saying a word, he carried a bucket of cold well water and poured it on his head, Mu Bin shivered, and sobered up a lot on the spot.

Zhang Ru had five bright red finger prints on his face, and you can imagine how heavy the slap was.

"Awake?" Zhang Ru asked stunned.

Mu Bin shook his head vigorously, then nodded.

"Jiang Wei, find him a dress, change his clothes and come to the study to see me." After speaking, Zhang Ru turned around and left.

Jiang Wei, who didn't have a good face for Mu Bin at all, coaxed Mu Bin to change his clothes, and after a while, Mu Bin, who put on dry clothes, was taken to the study.

As soon as a few people entered the study, Zhang Ru waved Fan Tong and Jiang Wei to go out, and then stared at Mu Bin, who was a little afraid to look at him: "You think I abandoned you?" You think I'm a shrunken turtle? ”

Mu Bin didn't speak, but the expression on his face was obviously acquiescing to Zhang Ru's statement.

Zhang Ru said again: "Do you think it is comfortable for me to press on your head, or is it comfortable for no one to press on your head?" I've always felt that I don't need to explain it too clearly to be able to understand, but I didn't expect that you still don't understand. ”

Mu Bin raised his head, stiffened his neck and said, "What don't you understand, what qualifications do I have to be the commander of this Jinyi Guard, all of this was created by you, my lord." I didn't do anything at all, but without saying a word, my lord asked His Majesty to give me the position of commander of the Jinyi Guard. Didn't the adults want to retreat? Adults dare to say that they don't want to retreat? ”

Zhang Ru shouted: "Of course I dare to say it! I occupy the three positions of the commander of the Jinyi Guard, the Governor of the Nine Sides, and the Marquis of Dingbian, aside from the title of the Marquis of Dingbian, let's just say that the Governor of the Nine Sides and the Commander of the Jinyi Guard, which position is not for guarding the heavy army! Your Majesty trusts me, but what about the courtiers? The matter of the ban on the sea has already made the ministers of the DPRK and China unhappy, and it is not one or two who want me to fall. Jinyiwei is the guard of the Son of Heaven, when His Majesty first ascended the throne, I, a close minister of the Son of Heaven, could occupy the position of the commander of Jinyiwei on the grounds of protecting His Majesty, but now that the dynasty is stable, what reason do I have to occupy this position?

Once those civil officials react, the military power of the Jinyi Guard in the capital and the important towns of the Nine Sides will be the shackles that can make me die without a place to be buried.

When the time comes, not to mention the so-called grand cause, it will be a great problem to live well. ”

"It's not what we said beforehand." Mu Bin still stubbornly insisted on his opinion.

Zhang Ru said angrily: "Everything is changing, and many things can't be looked at with the previous eyes." ”

Mu Bin said with a little disappointment: "Since the adults insist on leaving Jinyiwei, Mu Bin has nothing else to say. Don't worry, Jinyiwei is still the same Jinyiwei, but there is just one less Mu Bin. ”

Unexpectedly, because he didn't discuss with him in advance, he actually made Mu Bin feel upset, Zhang Ru said angrily: "What did you say? ”

"I'll resign tomorrow." Mu Bin said firmly.

"You don't believe me?"

"I don't know whether to believe it or not."

"What do you have to do with me to believe it."

"Why do you think Mu Bin has the ability to take charge of Jinyiwei? Aren't adults afraid that the situation that has been opened up with great difficulty will fall into a dead end again in my hands? Mu Bin wondered.

Zhang Ru said: "I believe in you, and please believe in me." To achieve the peaceful and prosperous times I have described, it will not take me alone. In fact, everything in Jinyiwei is on the right track, and you have the ability to manage Jinyiwei well. I can't do everything myself, I have to have someone to help me move towards that goal. ”

Mu Bin thought for a while and said, "My lord, I want to think about it." ”

Knowing that once this kind of thing has a knot, it will be difficult to make a decision in a short time, Zhang Ru did not force Mu Bin, and said gently: "Don't worry, you think about it slowly, and don't rush to say that you want to resign." ”

Mu Bin nodded in a trance, and then staggered outside.

The reason why there was an outbreak at this moment was not unrelated to the previous rejection of Wang Zhou and others. Everyone is Zhang Ru's confidant, but he is ostracized by others. But Zhang Ru talked to him, many things, for the so-called prosperous era of the Ming Dynasty, Mu Bin had a hard time.

Even if it is his own most confidant, he can't say it, so that the Jinyi Guard faction is clear. The old brothers of Dongsifang who supported Zhang Ru were disdainful of Mu Bin, and the emerging forces that supported Mu Bin secretly resented Zhang Ru.

The bearer of all this is Mu Bin alone.

So he needs a time to think about it, to think about where he should go in the future, how to think about the relationship between him and Zhang Ru, and whether he should be in charge of Jinyiwei.

The reason why he deliberately created such a situation as Jinyiwei at the beginning, Zhang Ru had his own considerations. At that time, he had already determined that once he wanted to embark on reform, he would inevitably stand on the opposite side of the civilian clique and the Xungui clique. As for Jinyiwei, who is his direct force, if there is such a person who sings against him and has a good relationship with civil officials, then there will be no resistance to the successful transition of Jinyiwei's commander in the future.

handed over the affairs of Beizhen Fusi to Mu Bin, and then let Mu Bin suppress the bandits, let Mu Bin train the newcomers behind, and deliberately let Mu Bin cultivate cronies. Even when he went to Suijingcha, he asked Mu Bin to cooperate with Wang Shu, the secretary of the ministry.

Invisibly, Mu Bin's impression to the civil officials and even the entire court is that he and Zhang Ru are inseparable, and there is a dislike between them.

And this effect is exactly what Zhang Ru wants most.

The conversation between the two was heard clearly by Jiang Wei and Fan Tong, who had been waiting nervously outside, until this moment, when they understood that they had misunderstood Mu Bin all along.

It is not easy for a person to maintain that heart after suddenly gaining power. However, there are too many people in this world who lose their hearts after suddenly gaining power, so Mu Bin has always maintained his original intention, which is precious.

Zhang Ru wanted him to agree on the spot, but unfortunately he just wanted to. He can't selfishly ask a brother with countless infamy to do what he doesn't want to do, and he can't ruthlessly let Mu Bin bear a lot of ups and downs alone.

In the future, these people around him are bound to be in charge alone.

Zhang Ru, who hadn't slept all night, had been thinking about whether he should put Mu Bin in danger, but unfortunately, until dawn, when the rooster sang, he couldn't come up with any result.

The trip to Nanjing is imminent, since the last time the people of the Wei State Mansion ate a closed door, it has been so long, and there has been no reaction from Nanjing at all.

The calmer it was, the more Zhang Ru didn't dare to take it lightly, and no one knew what kind of turbulent waves were behind the silence of the Wei State Mansion.
