Chapter Seventy-Four: Can You Afford to Mess With It?

Datong Town guards the eunuch's residence.

Zhang Zi'an had just taken a hot bath under the waiting of the two maidservants, and he was lying on the pit comfortably enjoying the pinch of the two little eunuchs, and at this time, another little eunuch came in to report: "Godfather, Deputy Chief Zhao said that there is something important to report to you in person." ”

"Zhao Santai?" Zhang Zi'an frowned and said, "Bacheng is for the sake of being beaten by Wang Pu, and the complaint is here." ”

The little eunuch said, "It must be." ”

"Go." Zhang Zi'an said, "Let him wait in the living room first." ”

"Yes."

The little eunuch answered.

Besides, Zhao Santai was led to the living room by the little eunuch, and waited for half an hour before he saw Zhang Zi'an lazily turning out from behind the screen. ”

Zhang Zi'an saw the whip marks on Zhao Santai's face, and immediately shouted: "Ouch, Mr. Zhao, what's wrong with you?" Don't have anything to do with your face? ”

"Father-in-law, don't laugh at it." Zhao Santai said bitterly, "This is a flower, this is all for Wang Pu to beat." ”

Zhang Zi'an's face sank, and he said in a gloomy voice: "So you are looking for our family to complain?" ”

Zhao Santai said: "Father-in-law, your old man has to make the decision for the last general, how can the last general say that he is also the deputy chief soldier of Datong Town, is he an errand under your old man's house, although he Wang Pu is a relative of the emperor, but he is the commander of the Beijing camp, no matter how long this hand is, he can't reach Datong, right?" As the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat a dog, father-in-law, Wang Pu didn't take you seriously. ”

"Shut up!" Zhang Zi'an said angrily, "If you want our family to say, the master of the horse will reward you with this whip and cheapen you!" Just because you are unconstitutional, full of feces, and do not lead troops to suppress thieves in the face of national disasters, but take the lead in going to the Shaolin abbot of the post-80s generation**, gathering crowds to make trouble, these two bad deeds, it is not too much to sentence you to be dismissed and investigated. ”

"Huh?" Zhao Santai fell to the ground and begged repeatedly, "Father-in-law save me." ”

"Our family can't save you, only you can save yourself." Zhang Zi'an walked a few steps, turned around and said in a cold tone, "What kind of master is the master of the horse, you know no less than our family, you weigh yourself carefully, can you afford to provoke it?" We advise you, take care of yourself, don't cause anything. ”

Zhao Santai hurriedly said: "Father-in-law, I ......"

Zhang Zi'an couldn't help Zhao Santai argue, and then said: "During the mourning period, if you cause something, no one will be able to save you." ”

After that, Zhang Zi'an ignored Zhao Santai and walked away.

When Zhang Zi'an walked away, Zhao Santai dared to muttered softly: "Dog eunuch, what is it, usually Lao Tzu has less money to honor you?" This will really be something, but he is cleaner than anyone else, isn't it just accepting Wang Pu's silver? You don't care about this, someone cares, Lao Tzu has to fight Wang Pu to the end! ”

Acting royal mansion.

The current acting king Zhu Chuanqi [the word fire should be added next to the word Qi before, but this word can't even be found in the Xinhua dictionary] is in his early forties, but in terms of generation, he is a generation later than Emperor Chongzhen.

When Emperor Hongwu first divided the feudal domains, most of the feudal kings of the towns led the army, and the Yongle Emperor relied on the army of the three towns of Yanjing to seize the world of the Jianwen Emperor.

Therefore, although Zhu Chuanqi is a prince, he can neither lead troops nor interfere in local government affairs.

This will Zhu Chuanqi already knew that Wang Pu made a big fuss about the Shaolin abbot after the 80s, and forcibly redeemed himself for Jiao Niang and Hong Xing, and was looking for the two Zhan Shi of the palace to discuss countermeasures. ”

"Zhao Santai?" Zhu Chuanqi asked the two Zhan Shi, "Wang Zhan Shi, Li Zhan Shi, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Wang Zhan said: "Zhao Santai is afraid that he is here to complain to the prince. ”

Li Zhan said: "Wang Pu has already set a name with Princess Changping, and he is already a royal prince, and according to the news from Jingshi, this guy is also very close to Zhou Yanru, the first assistant of the cabinet, and even the red prince in front of the long-lived lord seems to have something to do with him, and he thinks that it is best for the prince not to take this head for Zhao Santai at this time." ”

"Hmm." Zhu Chuanqi nodded and said, "This Wang Pu is a lawless lord, he even dares to resist the holy decree, and he dares to rob the law field, what else does he dare not do in this world?" After the 80s, the Shaolin abbot beat Zhao Santai and forcibly ransomed himself for Jiao Niang and Hongxing, which was just a trivial matter, and he couldn't worry about this kind of nonsense. ”

The two Zhan Shi clasped their fists at the same time and said, "The prince is wise." ”

"Go." Zhu Chuanqi said to the family who came to report the news, "You go to the concierge to reply, just say that this king has fallen asleep, let Zhao Santai come back another day." ”

Datong North Effect, Border Army Battalion.

It was late at night, it was already cold outside the tent, and the brazier in the tent could not resist the biting cold, and there were always more than a dozen veteran oils gathered in the tent of Zhao Xin, the president of Qian, to play money, although the court had not paid for more than half a year, and the soldiers were also shy, but there was really no other fun in the barracks except for playing money.

There is no trick, so you can only play white first, and you have to continue to play with money.

However, this gambling game is almost unbearable, Zhao Xin, who is sitting in the bank, has already played dozens of taels of silver for white strips, and after a full loss, there is finally a tall, Kong Wu powerful general shouted: "Boss Zhao, you owe dozens of taels of silver to the brothers, you can't still play white strips, right?" ”

"Go, go, go." Zhao Xin said impatiently, "Isn't it just a few dozen taels of silver, are you still afraid that Lao Tzu will not be able to pay it back?" ”

"Hey, we're afraid you'll pay the bill." The boss shouted, "These dozens of taels of silver are nothing to you, boss, but to the brothers, it is life-saving money, boss, the court has not been paid for more than half a year, and the lowly family still points to this bit of silver to buy rice for the pot." ”

"Damn, don't play." Zhao Xin pushed the dice cup forward, and then took out a silver ingot from his waist pocket and threw it on the table, and said angrily, "That's all, you can divide it yourself." ”

Kong Wu forcefully picked up the silver and flipped it, and shouted: "Boss Zhao, this is only five taels of silver, not enough to count." ”

"That's all." Zhao Xin said angrily, "If you want to take it, don't pull it down, anyway, Lao Tzu doesn't have any spare money, and the rest will be paid by the imperial court and then supplied to you." ”

"Hey, it's been boring." The boss shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I said that today, Boss Zhao, how can you be in the mood to eat the cauldron with the brothers, and you will not be able to open the pot if you dare to love it." ”

"yes." Another general also sighed, "We are all thousands of presidents, but we can't even support our wives and children, and then look at the soldiers of the general soldier Wang, a soldier will be paid five hundred taels of silver per person, and the scar face is also a thousand presidents, but he can redeem himself for the fans in the Shaolin abbot after the 80s!" This man is more than a man, and he must die! ”

Kong Wu said suddenly: "He's a damn ball, just don't mix it up in Datong, let's go to General Wang Bing!" ”

"Shut up!" Zhao Xin's face changed, and he shouted, "Tang Sheng, you listen to Lao Tzu, you can't talk nonsense." ”

"Afraid of what?" Tang Sheng shouted, "As the old saying goes, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, it is natural for soldiers to eat food, and now the imperial court can't send military salaries, what's wrong with brothers finding another way to live?" Besides, we are not hereditary military households, we can come and go when we want, who cares? ”

At this time, a general manager suddenly said: "To say, the imperial court must have paid a salary, but this salary must have made Zhao Santai, a dog thief, greedy for ink." ”

The other boss also coaxed: "That's it, let's go to him." ”

Tang Sheng rolled up his sleeves and shouted: "Everyone go back to the camp to gather more brothers, and now go to the munitions warehouse with Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will not believe that he can't find the silver!" ”

Zhao Xin hurriedly said: "Tang Sheng, you calm down, and a few of you don't come nonsense, gather people to make trouble, and lead troops to storm the munitions warehouse to conspire against it, that is to cut off your head." ”

"Lao Tzu is not afraid of death." Tang Sheng shouted, "The head is not lost but the bowl has a big scar, besides, the brothers can't even support themselves now, when they become soldiers, they still have the strength to live?" Go, go with Lao Tzu, Boss Zhao, if you're afraid of death, don't go. ”

"What are you talking about?" Zhao Sheng's face changed, he gritted his teeth, and suddenly shouted, "Lao Tzu has endured it for a long time, okay, since you want to make trouble, then ask for a surname to make a big fuss, you can't grab silver at all if you go to rob the military warehouse, you all go back and gather the brothers, and we will go directly to block Zhao Santai's general army." ”
