Chapter 406: The so-called villain
"What does Hu Zongxian boast about to me Wu Jie, and what is there to boast about?"
Wu Jie couldn't figure out why Zhao Wen said this, so he only said lightly: "Lord Hu should be the second grade of the dynasty and control the military and political affairs of the five southern provinces, and I, Wu Jie, am just a six-grade idle official." ”
Zhao Wen laughed loudly, his voice was as harsh as a supper, and he stopped talking, only drinking.
Suddenly, a soldier brought a bowl of deer blood to the stage and knelt in front of Hu Zongxian.
Hu Zongxian took the deer blood, drank it and shouted: "Happy, happy!" ”
"Mighty, mighty!" Another shout.
Suddenly, there were three cannon shots, and in an instant, all the shouts stopped, and the wilderness was silent, only the shouts just now still echoed in my ears.
The scorching sun was just right, and under the bright sun, the field was full of metal reflections on the armor, and the murderous aura rose to the sky.
Hu Zongxian suddenly slammed the bowl in his hand off the stage and scattered it into pieces.
Another drum sounded, and the previous hundred cavalry rushed to the bottom of the high platform. Then he jumped off his horse at the same time, and swarmed up with spears in his hand, as if he was about to drown Wu Jie.
Even the third elder screamed and slammed in front of Wu Jie.
And the entourage behind Wu Jie had pale faces one by one, and some of them were already paralyzed on the ground.
Then Zhao Wen didn't prevent Hu Zongxian from coming to such a hand, his lips trembled, and he couldn't speak.
Only Wu Jie took a deep breath and shouted: "Lord Hu, what does this mean?" ”
At this time, Hu Zongxian seemed to remember the existence of Wu Jie, and handed over a look to the heads of the group of warriors.
The warrior knelt down on one knee in front of Wu Jie, but there was no respect on his face, and shouted: "Governor Hu invites Lord Wu to go to the festival hall to speak!" ”
At this time, Zhao Wen came to his senses and shouted: "The thief is rude, the thief is rude!" But he was furious.
Hu Zongxian laughed and waved his sleeves: "That's it today, it's all gone!" ”
The governor of Zhejiang, the prefect of Hangzhou, and other local officials stood up at the same time and saluted respectfully. Say goodbye and leave.
In the laughter, Hu Zongxian walked up to Wu Jie and stretched out his hand to hold it: "Shizhen, when Jiajing was thirty-nine years old, Hu Mou saw you once in Xiyuan, but unfortunately he couldn't speak. It makes people happy. ”
Hu Zongxian's hand was very strong, he held it, and saw that there were a few drops of fresh deer blood on his tiger's mouth, Wu Jie felt tired in his heart.
When I met Hu Zongxian at the emperor's place, this guy had a good demeanor and was chic. But I don't want to be so domineering in the local area, and I don't give me any face.
After entering the Zhongjun Festival Hall and watching the tea, Hu Zongxian spoke to Wu Jie without a word, and his tone was very flat.
On the contrary, it was a smirk on Luo Longwen's face: "Lord Wu has just come to Hangzhou, long live the will to come down, but I don't know what the adults have to do?" ”
Didn't you ask knowingly, Wu Jie was annoyed in his heart: "Governor Hu, Your Majesty asked me to take a look at the situation at the front line. When I asked you when you will be able to use troops and when the war between eastern Zhejiang and Fujian will be completely resolved, please answer this question clearly. ”
Hu Zongxian still didn't speak, but Luo Longwen sighed: "Isn't it also for this reason that Luo was sent to Zhejiang by Yan Ge this time, the war in the southeast has been unresolved for a long time, and the state affairs are erosive, and it is indeed time to have to end it, and the time has come for the adults." However, these days. Luo acted under the tent of Lord Hu. But some problems were found. If you want to use soldiers, you still need some money and food. It's about to raise for a while. ”
Wu Jie said: "Didn't the imperial court set up a centimeter of gold and let the army set up its own checkpoints, why is there still a shortage of military salaries?" ”
Hu Zongxian slowly began: "It's also the right time for Lord Wu, Lord Su Wen knows how to manage money, and he is about to borrow from you, the accounts in the army are in the Governor's Palace, please help me take a look." ”…,
After that, without waiting for Wu Jie to agree, Luo Longwen shouted outside: "Come on, send Lord Wu to see the account book." ”
Wu Jiexin said: No matter what Hu Zongxian says, there is such a thing as accounts, and you can make plans after looking at it.
So he went out with the people in the house.
******************************************************
Beijing, Yuwang Mansion.
Tan Lun smiled: "According to the lower officials, the army that Hu Zongxian's subordinates can fight is only Qi Jiguang, but they can start here." ”
Gao Gong suddenly sneered: "Qi Jiguang, villain!" ”
This sentence was said very politely, and King Yu smiled: "What do you mean by Gao Xiang's words, but is it because Qi Jiguang is greedy for money and extravagant?" ”
Qi Jiguang is very good at fighting, but he loves money a little, and his daily use is extremely extravagant. It is rumored that Qi Jiguang only eats cabbage, and there are more than 30 dishes at each meal, all of which are delicacies from the mountains and seas, and one meal is enough for ordinary people for a year, even so, General Qi is still lamenting that there is no food to eat.
Gao Gong shook his head: "The ancients had a cloud: civil officials don't love money, military attaches are not afraid of death, and the world can be peaceful." It can be seen that the integrity of being a civilian official is the most important, but as long as a military general dares to go to the battlefield to fight the enemy and contribute to the country, he cannot be too harsh on integrity. Besides, the people in the southeast military camp, who is not rich, Governor Hu is much more greedy than Qi Jiguang. ”
At this time, Tan Lun sneered: "Gao Xiang said that Qi Jiguang was afraid of the inside?" ”
When he laughed, the prince couldn't help laughing, and he didn't even notice the high arch of his black face.
Qi Jiguang commanded tens of thousands of troops, and he shocked the southeast, but he panicked every time he heard that his wife had arrived. His subordinates were all unhappy, and they all said that they wanted to teach this "fierce woman" a lesson for the commander.
Qi Jiguang was provoked by his subordinates and ordered his soldiers to take his wife into the barracks. All the generals in the tent were brightly armoured and holding sharp blades, wanting to give his wife a dismount. After a while, his wife came to the camp tent, saw such a formation, but did not have the slightest fear, and shouted at Qi Jiguang: "What is the matter with calling me?"
When Qi Jiguang heard this, he was frightened, and said cautiously: "I specially invite Mrs. to parade." ”
Another time, Qi Jiguang couldn't stand the instigation of his subordinates, and rushed into the house to scare his wife with a sharp sword to boost his husband. At that time, his wife had just woken up from a nap, Qi Jiguang held the sword and shouted loudly to give himself strength, and his wife immediately roared: "What do you want to do with the sword?"
General Qi trembled with fright, his sword fell to the ground, and he hurriedly replied: "I want to kill a chicken for my wife to eat, so I shouted loudly." ”
When the lady heard this, she said, "Don't shout loudly when you kill chickens in the future." ”
After laughing, Gao Gong shook his head: "This is someone's private matter, and it's not easy for others to say anything." ”
Tan Lun: "Then why did Qi Jiguang become a villain again?" ”
Gao Gong said solemnly: "The prince and Lord Tan don't know that during this year's Spring Festival, this Qi Jiguang sent people into the capital with tens of thousands of taels of silver, and they moved around and sprinkled a lot of silver. He even went to Yan Song. Qi Jiguang was originally a subordinate of Hu Zongxian, but this time he bypassed Governor Hu and sold himself to seek wealth, in my opinion, his moral character is very poor. ”
Qi Jiguang's hand is purely a traitor, which is a taboo in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty.
Such a white-eyed wolf is despicable.
