The warship circled Zhoushan Island and returned to Dinghai Housu, Zhai Zhe was the newly appointed general of Zhejiang's anti-Japanese army, and Huang Binqing, as a general of Zhoushan, did not come to meet him, obviously not taking him seriously. Zhai Zhe, who is one level higher in the official rank, would be too cheap if he went to the island on his own.

The nearest warship was only five or six miles away from Zhoushan Island, and Zhai Zhe could see people the size of ants moving around on the island, and the "yellow" flag fluttering high on the island.

"This Huang Binqing, hehe!" Zhai Zhe snorted.

Several sailors behind him, Yang Zhigao, Feng Qin and others were waiting for his evaluation, but Zhai Zhe didn't say anything. It is self-evident that if Zhai Zhe is a stable and moderate general soldier like his predecessor Wang Zhiren, he and Huang Binqing still have the possibility of living together safely.

"My lord, I heard that General Wang was transferred to leave his post this time, and General Huang Shen has been aiming at the position of General Ning Shao, and he has secretly put a lot of effort into it." A sailor guerrilla observed the words and looked at the words, and interjected. The Ningshao Naval Division and the Zhoushan garrison were adjacent to each other, and the two sides had a lot of contacts on weekdays. Zhoushan's supplies need to be transported out of Ningbo Port, and Huang Binqing has given the garrison benefits to the guard on weekdays.

"I'm afraid he's a little unwilling!" The other garrison added fuel to the fire.

I heard that the original garrisons had been transferred to the battalion directly under the general army, and they had become barebones with only official positions and no real power.

"Let's go back!" Zhai Zhe turned around and entered the cabin.

He was not familiar with either the way of water warfare or maritime commerce, but if he had to do everything himself, wouldn't it be exhausting him to death. There are talents in the market, and what he has to do now is to recruit cadres, and he is slowly letting go of the drill like a foot soldier.

On Zhoushan Island, Huang Binqing watched the flagship of the Zhejiang Anti-Japanese General Army circle the island and leave quietly, feeling faintly uneasy in his heart, and secretly felt that he was a little excessive. A dismissed deputy general from the north suddenly came to be the chief soldier, and all the money he had spent all these years to catch maritime merchants was in vain, and he made such an outrageous move in his heart.

Whether it is Zhehai or Minhai, it is now the world of the Zheng family of Fujian, Huang Binqing didn't care too much about it, and three days later, he prepared a heavy gift and went ashore to meet Zhai Zhe, but he didn't expect Zhai Zhe to be there. Not only was Ning Shao's general army not there, but also the deputy general Xiao Zhiyan, a stunned guerrilla general ignored him in the General Army's Mansion.

This person is Meng Kang, Zuo Ruo is busy with the training of the army, he has a free time, and I heard the rumors of Huang Binqing, it is strange that he can give him a good face with his temper.

On the road from Hangzhou Mansion to Taicang, a group of strange-looking pedestrians hurried, including men in strong suits, scribes in cloth shirts, generals in leather boots, and one-armed retinues hidden in the crowd.

Zhai Zhe hurriedly put down the affairs in the army and went to Taicang to attend Zhang Pu's funeral.

Zhang Pu fell into the water more than a month ago, and his body was only fished out of Taihu Lake more than ten days later, and there was already a rancid smell. The servants identified Zhang Pu's identity through guò clothes, and the Wuxi prefect personally went to Taihu Lake to offer condolences. At first, everyone thought it was drowning, but later they examined the corpse, and there was chronic poison in its stomach. Before Zhang Pu left Nanjing, he had a secret meeting with Wu Changshi, and the news was quickly suppressed, and Zhang Pu's younger brother Zhang Cai hastily collected his brother's body and transported it back to his hometown in Taicang.

In the nearly month that followed, Zhang Cai avenged his brother. The Wuxi prefect arrested the captain who crossed Zhang Pu across the river in the rain that day, broke both of his legs, and did not ask what the results were. At the beginning, the Jiangnan Zhusheng was still in an uproar, when the news that Zhang Pu might have died of poisoning came out, the number of people who made trouble was less than half, and then seven or eight days later, Zhangjiamen was full of birds, and only occasionally some scholars came to worship.

The group rushed to Taicang in two days.

The Zhang family is a prominent family in Taicang, but the Zhang Pu family is not rich. Zhang Pu was originally born to the concubine of the Zhang family in Taicang, and he was unable to divide much family property. After he was promoted to the rank of sergeant, he did not serve as an official and had no savings in his family. Later, after gathering the societies to form the Restoration Society, due to the burden of fame, they became more self-conscious, and sprinkled more silver out and less into it.

Zhai Zhe asked all the way to Zhang Pu's door, the mourning flags swayed, and the sound of mourning music.

The steward of the Zhang family came to receive him, and Zhai Zhe took Xiao Zhiyan, Zong Mao, Ji Hong and others to the coffin to mourn Zhang Pu. The Zhang family did not have many guests, and some soldiers were there to help.

The red lacquered coffin was blocked within three or four steps of the door of the hall, and Zhang Pu's younger brother Zhang Cai wore linen and filial piety, and took Zhang Pu's two young sons to receive the guests who came to mourn.

This is the second time Zhai Zhe has attended an official funeral, and the previous time he and Zhang Cai's current identity are similar.

Regardless of whether Zhang Pu was poisoned or drowned, Zhai Zhe had no reason to extricate himself, and he never thought of doing so. On the battlefield or in court battles, the soles of the victor's boots will inevitably be stained with blood. After Lu Xiangsheng's death, Zhai Zhe himself did not appear, and he was much more cruel to this world.

When bowing, Zhai Zhe silently thought in his heart, "People always have to do what they can do, Mr. Tianru, you can rest in peace!" ”

Man must always do what he can! That's what he said to himself, too. Delusional to get unrealistic help, he once had such a dream, Lu Gong's death woke him up, fortunately he still had a chance, and he didn't lie here like Zhang Pu so soon. This is his blessing!

Zong Mao took out a gift box of 1,000 taels of silver full of white flowers and handed it to the steward, which was already a heavy gift for the Zhang family. When Zhang Pu was alive, countless people fought to loosen the silver website, and Zhang Pu didn't have a tael of it, and now he doesn't want it.

After the ceremony, the steward led Zhai Zhe to the side hall to rest, and the Zhang family did not expect that a military general who had little friendship would come to worship.

The steward went out, and only a few people were left in the living room.

"This is the funeral of the Jiangnan Fushe Chief." Zhai Zhe shook his head secretly, far less than Lu Gong's funeral scenery. Although people take tea and cool, it is too cold.

was secretly sighing about his kung fu, Zhang Cai led a middle-aged man into the door, the man was wearing a dark brown satin shirt, his eyes were slightly sunken, as shiny as a hungry wolf in the mountains and forests, and a small thick beard on his chin.

Zhang Cai stretched out his hand to introduce: "Chief Soldier Zhai, this is Lord Ma, the governor of Fengyang!" ”

Ma Shiying! Zhai Zhe was quite surprised, hurriedly stood up and saluted, and said, "Meet the Governor!" ”

"Mr. Zhai doesn't need to be polite, sit down and talk." Ma Shiying stretched out his hand to support him, and sat down as he spoke, and Xiao Zhiyan and the others consciously retreated.

Zhang Cai sat opposite the two, shook his head and smiled bitterly, his face was sad, "On weekdays, there are countless people who claim to be the protégés of their brothers, and now there are very few people who come to worship and mourn, Governor Ma sent his relatives to help twenty days ago, Zhai Zongbing is even more ignorant, and the lives of Jiangnan are chilling." ”

Ma Shiying and Zhai Zhe glanced at each other, and it was difficult to answer.

From the investigation of the suspicious points of the case after Zhang Puzhi's death to the handling of the funeral, the attitude of Jiangnan Shizi made Zhang Cai feel cold. Since everyone knew that Zhang Pu might have been poisoned by Wu Changshi, the threshold of the Zhang family was clear. As soon as Zhang Pu died, Wu Changshi became the only contact between the Fushe and the cabinet assistant Zhou Yanru.

Seeing that Zhang Cai was still chattering there, Ma Shiying waved his hand and said: "I can go from being a guilty person to sitting in the position of the governor of Fengyang, Mr. Tianru has done his best, and he should do his best for the funeral." ”

Zhai Zhe nodded, "Exactly." ”

He and Ma Shiying have indeed borrowed Zhang Pu's light, but Ma Shiying, as the governor of Fengyang, can do his best to impress him. To see how a person is, not by what he says, but by what he does. Ninety percent of Ma Shiying's kindness as the governor of Fengyang should be attributed to Ruan Dacheng, Ruan Dacheng is still the opponent of the Restoration Society, and what Ma Shiying can do is hundreds of times stronger than those so-called Restoration Scholars.

In the afternoon, there were forty or fifty people who were buried with the coffin, and Zhang Pu's funeral was all taken care of by Ma Shiying, and a funeral ended hastily.

When the coffin was put into the ground, Zhai Zhe and Ji Hong were relieved, and this matter passed like this. What is the truth, I'm afraid even the parties don't know, is it Zhang Pu who was poisoned by Wu Changshi or Zhang Pu who was drowned by Ji Hong? A qiē secret is attributed to the earth.

Several people stayed in Taicang for a night, and the next morning, Zhai Zhe said goodbye to Zhang Cai and Ma Shiying and embarked on the way home.

The return journey was not in a hurry, the group enjoyed the gorgeous **** of Taihu Lake while walking, and talked about Zhang Pu's funeral, Zhai Zhe said a sentence, "Every time you slaughter dogs in your life, you are mostly a reader!" Zhang Pu's death gave him a deeper understanding of the current situation of the Ming Dynasty.

Zong Mao said with a smile: "My lord, we are also a party of Donglin now!" ”

"I want to be a member of the Donglin Party, and others won't take us seriously. However, there are still some benefits to being regarded as a party in Donglin in Jiangnan. ”

Zong Mao sneered and said: "Why do the soldiers in the army spill their blood on the battlefield, and when they see the civil officials have to bow down on their knees, the gentry not only do not have to pay the land tax, but also take advantage of all kinds of benefits, the imperial court is too preferential to the scholars, so there will be today's decline." ”

"You're saying a good thing!" Zhai Zhe looked at Zong Mao with approving eyes. He knew that Zong Mao was smart and studious, but he didn't expect him to have such insight, "I'm thinking that you have been following me to manage your finances, you really have a talent, it's better to take the test for fame, maybe you can be useful in the future." ”

"What's the use of asking for the fame of that Raushzi," Zong Mao disdained, "Is it to be in the company of those plain corpse diners?" ”

Zhai Zhe smiled and said, "Well, before you break the rules of the Ming Dynasty, you still have to adapt to it." "He likes Zong Mao's sharpness, like he killed the Tumut tribe ten years ago without hesitation. Over the years, as he grew older, his position changed, and his actions gradually became calm, but he still had adventurous blood in his bones.

Ji Hong didn't talk much along the way, and Xiao Zhiyan didn't seem to be very interested in the scenery of this Jiangnan water town.

"Brother Xiao, how is this Jiangnan woman? If you see someone you like, marry it! Zhai Zhe was amused.

"I've been stuck in the barracks these days, and I haven't had a chance to try yet." Xiao Zhiyan laughed.

Ji Hong held back a sentence, "Has General Xiao heard of Qin Huai Bayan's reputation?" That's a first-class famous prostitute in Jiangnan. "He is in charge of the dark camp, and these people are no more familiar with Jiangnan than him.

"Is it famous?" Xiao Zhiyan was curious.

"Ji Hong, you are not timid, you are not afraid that I will go back to sue you!" Zong Mao snickered. He and Ji Hong are brothers-in-law, and they know that Ji Hong respects Wen Ying very much at home.

"If you don't walk on the banks of the Qinhuai River, you will come to the south of the Yangtze River in vain!" Zhai Zhe had also heard of the reputation there.
