Wang Lanping's face sank, and he shouted to Song Dali and the other generals, "What are you doing?" Put it away"

Turning against the court when there is no chance of winning at all is the next strategy.

Ma Shiying is a big victory this time, I'm afraid that your kid won't do it, as long as you do it, it will happen to be a permanent trouble.

"Dingnanhou, please, the old man will personally send you home"

Wang Lanping smiled and nodded, "Okay, it is also a life and death battle with the brothers in the garrison camp, can you say a few words to them alone?"

There is nothing unreasonable about this request, let's talk, it's useless to talk about anything, 150,000 people sandwich you in the middle, you can still go to the sky, drag you to death, starve you, trap you.

Wang Lanping asked the generals to come around, and instructed, "After I leave, you must not make trouble, you must use your brains first in case of trouble, don't fight with people at every turn, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, I will go to the city first to find out, plan slowly, see what they want to do, remember, don't make trouble, perform your duties, take care of the brothers, if there is an emergency, you can go to the Hou Mansion to find me"

Song Xian was a little worried, "But what if they want to poison you, otherwise, choose a few brothers from the Fengzi Battalion to follow."

Wang Lanping waved his hand, "No need, besides, I have no official or position now, and it is inconvenient to use the people in the garrison camp, who is the Marquis of Dingnan who eats and waits for death."

Song Dali said indifferently, "Whoever is the admiral, Lao Tzu is not convinced, Ma Ming, isn't it Ma Shiying's son, Lao Tzu has long wanted to kill him"

Wang Lanping smiled and patted Song Dali's chest, "You kid don't make trouble, Song Xian." You'll have to watch him, brothers. Take care"

Zheng Sen, Fang Guoan. Chen Wanliang, Cao Dingjiao, Song Xian, and Song Dali were displeased, but they had no choice but to bow their hands together and say gloomily, "Lord Hou take care!" ”

After some instructions, Wang Lanping followed Han Gonggong and Ma Shoufu into Nanjing City, and the champion army had 10,000 people. Under the escort of Wang Yongji's 50,000 troops, he went to the Xiangshan camp.

**

Entering Nanjing City, Wang Lanping, accompanied by Ma Shiying, returned to the Dingnan Hou Mansion, a farewell for two months, the mansion is still there, but it is already a matter of things, Wang Lanping's military power is gone, and the only thing left is this house.

Han Zanzhou went back to the palace to reply to the decree. Ma Shiying didn't stay, but when he left, he left a group of soldiers and horses and surrounded all sides of the Dingnan Hou Mansion. Just like when Wang Lanping sent troops to surround Ma Shiying's mansion, in Ma Shiying's eyes, this is called giving back to others in the way of others. Look at your kid who is still angry and traps you. Rush you to death, and then slowly torture you to death. If you don't have military power, it depends on what you do to fight with me, this Hongguang Dynasty is still my surname Ma.

Wang Lanping alone, holding on to the wall, went to the house, here has changed greatly, a mess, since Wang Lanping led the troops to Yangzhou, the people in the Dingnan Hou Mansion had to go their separate ways, and went to the master.

The courtyard was overgrown with weeds, and the furniture in the house was covered with a thick layer of dust.

Standing at the gate of the Hou Mansion, looking at the depression of the courtyard, Wang Lanping couldn't help but sigh with emotion, turned around, and came back here, it was really not tossing and not dying, the more he tossed, the faster he died.

At this time, several eunuchs came.

"Master Hou, this is the emperor's reward, put it here for you, five hundred taels of gold, one thousand brocades, you order, the small one is good to go back and hand over the decree"

The eunuchs did not enter the courtyard and put their things on the steps of the door.

Wang Lanping laughed at himself, it was really a tiger falling into Pingyang and being bullied by dogs, even these eunuchs don't take me seriously, Zhu Yousong, Zhu Yousong, Zhu Yousong, you turned your face too quickly, if I didn't fight to the death in Yangzhou, there would still be a place for you in Nanjing, on the contrary, not against you, but against whom.

"No need to order, there are a few little fathers-in-law" Wang Lanping waved his hand, but the two little eunuchs did not leave, seeing that it meant waiting for the reward.

Wang Lanping turned around and raised the crutches under his arm, "Get out!" ”

The two eunuchs were bored and fled with their heads in their hands.

Wang Lanping entered the courtyard, but a voice came from behind him.

"The prestige of the Marquis of Dingnan spread all over the world, and even the Prince of Tatar Qingyu had to retreat when he saw you, but he didn't expect to tease the two little eunuchs here, haha"

Wang Lanping looked back and saw that it was Zhang Huangyan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Qian Xiaole, the secretary of the Criminal Department, who were wearing red and first-grade official uniforms, without an entourage, and were standing outside the door watching with a smile.

These two were both promoted when Wang Lanping forcibly ruled that day, but on the day of farewell, the past is unbearable.

"How dare you come?" Wang Lanping propped his crutches on his chin and said with a smile, "You two are the first ones to come to see me."

The two of them were walking inside, and Zhang Huang said, "Why don't we dare to come, it's our sin to wait for not to go outside the city to greet us."

Just as the two of them were about to go inside again, they saw the soldiers guarding the door surrounding them together, "Two, the Hou Ye is heavy, and you must not trespass."

Zhang Huangyan's face sank, "Presumptuous, where are you soldiers, do you know our official uniforms?" ”

A soldier looked them up and down, and immediately put on a smile and said, "Recognize it, the first grade department of the heavenly official, forgive the little one who looked away for a while, two adults, see the cold"

Zhang Huangyan flicked his sleeves, "It's good to know it, don't let it go"

The soldier didn't move, he bent down and said, "I'm sorry, there is a decree from the saint, during the recuperation of the Marquis of Dingnan, no one is allowed to disturb, please don't let the little ones be difficult."

Qian Xiaole glared, "We are also outsiders?" Any idea who this is? This is Lord Zhang, the secretary of the Ministry of War, where are you soldiers? Oh, the people of the Nanjing garrison camp, the Marquis of Dingnan has just stepped down from the commandery, you dare to besiege his mansion, I ...... "I will go to the soldiers."

"Don't, Lord Qian, why bother to meet them in general, come, please please please inside" Wang Lanping spoke.

Although those soldiers wanted to stop them again, they didn't dare to open their mouths, and Wang Lanping's expression of not being angry and arrogant was really terrifying.

Zhang Huangyan looked for the stairs and went up, pushed away the soldiers and walked inside, and when they entered the door, the two of them hugged the gold and brocade placed at the door.

"Please, please," Wang Lanping kept the house on crutches.

Qian Xiaole hugged the brocade and walked as he walked, "These little eunuchs are too presumptuous, they don't even send the emperor's reward in, I will definitely find that Han Zanzhou and say, there is no more etiquette."

Wang Lanping led the way. Walking very slowly, he smiled with relief. "I can't do it, I'm unofficial now. Excuse me, be happy, walk, go in, don't say this ugly thing ahead, you have also seen it, there are only three of you and me in my house, and there is no one who brings tea and water, so take care of it."

Zhang Huangyan said angrily. "What? I won't even leave you a single one."

Wang Lanping shook his head, "Hey, fewer people are quieter"

The three of them had arrived at the door of the front hall, Zhang Huangyan pushed the door open, and with a creak, dust fluttered.

Spit! Spit!

Zhang Huangyan waved his hand, frowned, put the gold under his armpit, and helped Wang Lanping to the threshold. "Come, Master Hou, slow down"

The three of them entered the house, and Qian Xiaole hurriedly put down his things. I picked up the feather duster on the table and swept it on a few chairs in the hall.

"Master Hou, sit down and rest, or. I'm going to make some tea."

In the dignified Dingnan Hou Mansion, Shangshu personally boiled tea. It can be regarded as a strange story in the world.

Wang Lanping threw his cane aside, "Master Qian, sit down." You're here for tea, sit down."

The three of them laughed and sat together, but soon they noticed that two of the soldiers at the door had also come in and stood outside the hall.

Wang Lanping knew that he was afraid that the three of them would have some conspiracy inside, so he would not dare to leave even if he beat and scolded them.

So the three of them just talked casually, talking about everything, and the topics were all around Wang Lanping's injury, and they were even discussing whether to find a few subordinates, or the house was too calm, why couldn't the Hou Ye be injured like this, and he had to do everything himself.

There are some things, smart people don't need to say too thoroughly, everyone knows it, isn't it that Ma Shiying took advantage of the loss of Yangzhou to pull the emperor to suppress Wang Lanping, fools can see that this court seems to be going back to the era when Zhu Yousong just ascended the throne when Ma Shiying covered the sky with one hand, which is intolerable to any upright minister.

From Wang Lanping into the city to now, it has been more than half a day, except for these two, there has not been a Beijing official to visit, this is very revealing, Wang Lanping pushed them one by one to the top of the high officials, and now things are wrong, one by one has become a shrunken turtle, and he doesn't even dare to look at it, the emperor hasn't done anything to Wang Lanping, but these courtiers have all started their own little Jiujiu, for fear that once Ma Shiying is in power again, he will be implicated.

In the blink of an eye, it was already afternoon, the two Shangshu got up and left, Wang Lanping sent to the door with a cane, and after the two left, those soldiers returned to the outside of the house.

Closing the vermilion gate, Wang Lanping threw the crutch to the side, it turned out that all this was fake, and his injuries were almost healed.

In the Dingnan Hou Mansion, Wang Lanping was alone, dozens of rooms inside and out, he felt hungry in his stomach, and unconsciously came to the kitchen, the kitchen was also full of dust, this rummaged through that and searched, there was no food, Wang Lan was fighting in the parallel army, and he didn't pay much attention to food, but he looked around, except for a few rats in the corner, he didn't have any.

He had to turn back to the front yard, pick up his crutches again, and shouted to the door, "Hey, you guys, go, order a drink and food for me at Qingxi Restaurant"

Outside the house, they are still willing to do these things.

Dingnan Hou Mansion is located outside the Xi'an Gate of the Forbidden City, near Xuanwu Lake in the north, Xi'an Gate in the east, turn over the Fucheng Bridge in the south, a wall is separated by the Nanjing Garrison Yamen, but now it has nothing to do with him, and it is still the palace wall, the west side along the Xi'anmen Street is the glorious Han Palace, interestingly, this Han Mansion is also an empty house.

The first Han king of the Ming Dynasty, is the second son of the Yongle Emperor Zhu Gaoxu, Yongle Emperor Jing after the success, in Nanjing called the emperor, Zhu Gaoxu as the king of Han, let him go to Yunnan to the domain, but this kid thought that the military merits were great, has been seeking the position of the prince, refused to be a vassal, and so on the Yongle Emperor died, he rebelled, wanted to learn from his father, but did not expect to just toss a few days, was suppressed by Ming Xuanzong, Han King Zhu Gaoxu was imprisoned in Nanjing Xi'an Gate outside the Han Palace, not long after, the whole family was given to die, this palace has been empty, The imperial court never canonized the king of Han again.

Wang Lanping sat alone in the front yard of the tumbling and vomiting, thinking of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, thinking of the emperor who couldn't help him, and thinking of the generals who led the troops in various towns in the world.

Thinking about it, the courtyard door slowly opened, and two soldiers walked in with fragrant wine and food, and as they came in, Wang Lanping also heard that there seemed to be a lot of people outside the courtyard, chattering.

The soldiers were stacking wine and food on the stone table next to Wang Lanping, Wang Lanping raised his chin and asked, "Why is there a commotion outside?" ”

One of the soldiers stretched out his head to look out, then nodded, and sighed, "It seems that it is a girl who fled from Yangzhou, I heard that her family had a lawsuit, she sold herself, and wanted to make some money so that she could respond to the complaint of Tianfu."

When Wang Lanping heard it, it was from Yangzhou, could it be that he was the people who were expelled from Yangzhou City with Shi Kefa that day, if it was true, it would be regarded as a sin he had done.

At that moment, Wang Lanping wanted to get up and go out to have a look.

Another soldier had already set up the wine and food, and arched his hand, "Master Hou, you use it slowly, if you have any sends, you can order them at any time, and the little ones are waiting outside."

The two of them saw that Hou Ye seemed to be going out, and another interjected, "Hou Ye, what are you doing with these things, there are too many hard-working people, besides, this woman's family seems to have committed a life lawsuit."

Wang Lanping didn't listen to him, he walked out with a cane, a woman to the point of selling herself, it was really desperate, out of the courtyard gate, it was Xi'anmen Street, because this is the entrance and exit of Xi'an Gate in the imperial city, there are not many pedestrians.

Sure enough, there were more than ten people on the left side of the gate, and Wang Lanping looked through the gap between the crowd and saw a young girl kneeling on the side of the street leaning against the wall, but she couldn't see what she looked like.

Several soldiers stepped forward quickly and separated everyone, "Let let let let go, Hou Ye is here"

The people are afraid of officials, let alone a marquis, and they are busy making a lot of birds and beasts, but there is no one, a middle-aged woman about forty years old, with heavy makeup and a strong musk fragrance on her body.

When the middle-aged woman saw Wang Lanping coming, she hurriedly put on a smiling face, squatted down and made a salute, but quickly turned her head again, straightened her face, crossed her waist, and pointed at the girl who was still sobbing softly, domineering.

"Hey I said, girl, are you willing or not, fifty taels, I can be kind enough to help you for the sake of your poor brother, there is no store after this tree, and the whole Nanjing City is willing to pay this price for my mother Ding, you nod, and the silver will be sent immediately."

The girl cried into tears and kowtowed, "Auntie, I, I'm from a white family."

The middle-aged woman smiled, "It's really weird, it's too bad to call Hanako, girl, do you know how much a big girl in this city costs now?" Thirty taels of the sky, the old lady can give fifty taels, that is, the heart is kind, what a pity you waste this water spirit, in the future, follow my mother and me, wear gold and silver, you can enjoy it inexhaustibly, come on, I have brought the deed of sale, you press a handprint, and the silver will be delivered immediately" (to be continued.) )
