Chapter 548: The Prince's Thoughts
After taking the Xuanfu, there were a bunch of trivial matters.
Zhang Ke expelled almost all the original soldiers, and the local hooligans and ruffians and gangsters were also cleaned in the name of the White Lotus Sect bandits, and the ground in Xuanfu was clean.
However, there are also many problems, such as the lack of military protection, the need to train a new army, the lack of young and strong labor, and the need for a large number of immigrants. As for the reclamation of fields, the construction of water conservancy facilities, the re-inventory of the population, the compilation of yellow books, and so on.
Fortunately, Du Qing has rich experience, and almost all the two million taels of silver that Zhang Ke took out have been recovered, and another million stones of grain have been transported one after another.
With these things, Du Qing is fully capable of recruiting people and quickly restoring the vitality of the Xuan Mansion, and Zhang Ke is not worried. He set his sights on the more important town of Datong.
……
"Lord Zhang, tomorrow the prince will lead the army to Datong, and I will notify you in advance, the prince is ordered to patrol the border, and there are two things to check, the first is the number of people and horses in various places, and the second is the military reserves, you have to prepare the list. When the prince came, he would immediately offer it, of course, the prince would only investigate it himself to see if there were any discrepancies. ”
Zhu Chuanzhi said to Zhang Zongheng, the governor of Datong, in his tone, there was even a hint of teaching his subordinates. In the past, Zhu Chuanzhi definitely didn't have the courage to do so, not to mention the noble and martial arts, he was a small guerrilla, and he was too far away from the feudal officials.
But since Xiong Tingbi was killed in a daze, Zhu Chuanzhi was immediately different, he completely saw what kind of ruthless character the master he followed was, and he became bolder.
"Lord Zhang, the prince doesn't rub sand in his eyes, you must not learn Xiong Tingbi!"
Suck!
was taught a lesson by a vulgar martial artist, Zhang Zongheng's face sank, and his anger jumped to the top beam, but he still barely suppressed it. Barely squeezing out a smile.
"Thank you, Lord Zhu, for reminding me, and please return to King Anton. The lower officials must have worked hard to do it, but ......"
Zhu Chuanzhi raised his eyebrows, his face unhappy.
"What, does Lord Zhang still want to talk about the conditions?"
"Don't dare, don't dare!" Zhang Zongheng hurriedly smiled and said: "Master Zhu is also an old man in Xuanfu, you know the situation of Xuanda, Xiong Tingbi has made people panic all these years, and the accounts are chaotic everywhere, and if you want to figure it out, it is not something that can be done for a while." ”
Anyway, Xiong Tingbi has been rumored to be the head of the nine sides, and what kind of sin is pushed on him. There is no burden either.
But Zhu Chuanzhi didn't buy it, and sneered: "Master Zhang, as the governor of Datong, you are in charge of military affairs, how many soldiers you have, and how much food you have, all of which are your duties. If you don't know this, isn't it the same as not knowing how many bowls of rice you can eat? It's just a laugh! ”
"This!"
Zhang Zongheng gritted his teeth and scolded in his heart. Zhu Chuanzhi, shit, it's the villain's ambition! Helpless, the master standing behind this villain is too terrible. He also has to accompany the smiling face.
Quietly took out a stack of silver tickets from his sleeve and stuffed them into Zhu Chuanzhi's hand very naturally.
"Master Zhu, it's not easy to go all the way. Buy two bags of tea and drink it. ”
Zhu Chuanzhi peeked at it, and each one was two hundred taels, a total of ten. Two thousand!
It's really generous!
In the past, he gave gifts to civil officials, but when the governor actually gave him a gift, the sun came out of the west. Looking at the cute silver ticket, one word is cool! Two words, it's so cool!
Zhu Chuanzhi deliberately pretended to be high-minded and refuted Zhang Zongheng with righteous and stern words, but after thinking about it, he suppressed his thoughts again. After all, he still doesn't know what the prince is thinking, so don't mess things up.
"Lord Zhang is too polite, the lower officials try their best to plead to the prince, as for the result, it depends on the prince's thoughts, so I will leave first."
Zhu Chuanzhi got up, suddenly made a movement that no one could have imagined, stretched out his hand and patted Zhang Zongheng's shoulder. said with a smile: "Lord Zhang, the prince has always been magnanimous towards his own people, but for those who have ill intentions, he is even more polite, you have to think about what to do." Xia Guan has been in Xuanda for many years, so his eyes are bright, what tricks do he want to play, he doesn't need the prince, even I can't pass this level! ”
After finishing speaking, he walked away, leaving Zhang Zongheng standing stunned. The body was about to stand up and hadn't stood up yet, as if it had been pointed.
The subordinates were all startled, is this swollen, is it evil?
The housekeeper ran over and was about to help Zhang Zongheng, when suddenly, Zhang Zongheng grabbed the teacup on the table, threw it violently, and smashed it to pieces!
"Villain, Zhu Chuanzhi, who gave you the guts of the dog, dare to teach the old man a lesson! Too much deception, too much deception! Zhu Chuanzhi's lips trembled, and he was so angry that he was blue and purple.
In the past, when something like Zhu Chuanzhi came to visit him, he couldn't even enter the lobby, and he could get a snort, even if it was a great creation.
Okay, put your nose on your face, dare to say that the old man doesn't know how to eat a few bowls of dry rice, and is there such a bully?
Zhang Zongheng only felt a resentment in his stomach, constantly stirring, and it was about to explode. I dropped the teapot and the bowl, and I was still angry, and I dropped all the porcelain that could be broken in the room, like a madman, like a wild beast.
Just as he was furious, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside, and a teenager walked in.
I saw that this person was sixteen or seventeen years old, with a thin figure, a light blue Confucian shirt, a square scarf, and a Hanyu hairpin on his head. Looking at the face, it was suddenly amazing, the delicate facial features, especially the delicate skin, the tender almost out of the water, where is a man, it is better than countless women.
Seeing this person come in, Zhang Zongheng's face softened slightly.
"It's Zhen'er who is here, Dad is in a bad mood, you go down to study!"
The visitor smiled slightly, and suddenly felt ashamed.
"Dad, the child is here to explain your old age."
Zhang Zongheng frowned and said, "Zhen'er, my father is angry to death, just right, what insight do you have, just say it." ”
The person who came walked briskly, dodged the broken porcelain pieces all over the ground, sat opposite Zhang Zongheng, and smiled slightly.
"Dad, the child thinks that the moment is the life and death of your old man, if you bet on Bao'er, you will soar, if you bet wrong, you can only be in a different place."
"Hmm!"
Zhang Zongheng's eyes were deep, he thought for a long time, and asked hesitantly: "Zhen'er, can't Dad not bet on the treasure?" ”
The young man shook his head slightly, showed his teeth, and said with a smile: "Dad wants to please both sides?" That is, both sides are not pleased, as long as people divide the winners and losers, I am afraid that Daddy's fate will not be good. ”
Zhang Zongheng is not a fool, he has been in Jiubian for many years, and he doesn't know anything about Jin Shang, but he also knows something. From Zhang Ke's actions in Xuanfu, it can be seen that he must completely control Datong in his hands, which is tantamount to moving the lifeblood of the Jin merchants, and they will not give up.
In fact, someone has already found Zhang Zongheng and asked him to stumble on Zhang Ke, and he also sent 200,000 taels!
"Zhen'er, in fact, my father doesn't want to deal with those old Xi'er, but Zhang Ke is too underestimated by me, and he actually sent a Zhu Chuanzhi over, which is too deceitful!"
The young man suddenly sneered: "Dad, why are you so confused, King Anton sent Zhu Chuanzhi, but it has no deep meaning!" (To be continued......)
