Chapter 222: The Night of the Murder of Flowers and Candles in the Cave Room

Ji Gang smiled at Zhang Anshi.

Seeing that Zhang Anshi's face became more and more solemn.

But he said, "I want to know, right?" ”

Zhang Anshi was furious.

This Ji Gang has been reduced to a prisoner, but he still dares to joke in front of him.

I saw Ji Gang say: "It's a pity...... How can I let you know these things, which I will bring with me into the coffin? ”

Zhang Anshi then stood up, seemed to be too lazy to look at Ji Gang anymore, and said to Chen Li: "Don't kill you." ”

Chen Li will understand.

Zhang Anshi turned around directly, and Xu Bu walked out.

More than three hours have passed.

Chen Licai came in a hurry, wiped the fine sweat on his forehead, and said, "Master Hou, he confessed." ”

Zhang Anshi's eyes widened slightly, and he came to the spirit: "What do you say?" ”

"The so-called conspiracy is that the guards of Xifengkou have colluded with Ji Gang, and Ji Gang's people are lurking on the front line of Xifengkou, colluding with the Tatar Department and the Uliang Ha Department, and everyone is in one place, entering the pass from Xifengkou and attacking Hebei."

Zhang Anshi's pupils contracted, and then he said in surprise: "They have such courage? ”

Chen Li said: "Once the Tatar Ministry conspires with the Uliangha Ministry, the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

"yes." Zhang Anshi was also shocked, although he was prepared, but when he really heard the news, Zhang Anshi still felt uncomfortable.

Of course, he was convinced that these people could easily drive these Tartars out with Zhu Di's skills.

But it's one thing to get out, and the entry of the Tartars into the customs is a matter of misery in itself.

They marched into the army, but they hardly brought food and grass, and once they entered the Guansai, the land of Hebei, mostly plains, and the endless plundering that followed, what a terrible thing.

Since the Ming Dynasty, the number of Tatars entering the customs has been as many as a dozen times, and each time it has not shaken the national capital of the Ming Dynasty.

But every time the losses suffered were heavy, it can be described as thousands of miles of bare land, and the white bones are exposed in the wild.

At this time, Zhang Anshi's eyes were shining, and he sneered: "Ji Gang is so bold. ”

Zhang Anshi's hatred for Ji Gang in his heart is a little more!

"When I heard about this, I was also shocked, so I taught him a hard lesson."

Zhang Anshi took a deep breath and said, "Report to the imperial court immediately." As for this discipline...... These days, don't let him have a good life, come up with your means, as long as you don't die, everything else is fine. ”

Chen Li nodded, and he gritted his teeth with hatred towards Ji Gang.

Chen Li is a native of Beiping.

In other words, in this Nanjing city, there are many people from Beiping.

At the beginning, they were martyred and followed Zhu Di into Nanjing City, and now they are officials here, but Beiping is their hometown, even if this Nanjing City is very good. And many people have already brought their families here. But in any case, it is also their hometown.

Once the Tartars enter the customs, it will inevitably be a disastrous consequence.

…………

"Your Majesty, the thousand households are in a hurry."

Hearing the last two words, Zhu Di raised his eyebrows slightly, and immediately took over the report.

took a look at it, and then said angrily: "How dare Ji Gang?" ”

Zhu Di suddenly became angry, and Yi Shuha was also startled by the side, and looked at Zhu Di cautiously.

Zhu Di said angrily: "In such a collusion with the Tatars and the Uliangha, I still remember that he had merit, but now it seems that this person has lost his mind and gone crazy." ”

He also said cautiously: "Your Majesty ......"

Zhu Di snorted coldly and said: "If the Tartars really want to come, it is up to them, I originally planned to clean them up in one fell swoop, so ...... I had to hunt with them at the mouth of Xifeng and fight it out. ”

He also bowed and said nothing.

However, Zhu Di thought about it for a while with a cold face, and then said: "Summoning the generals of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, summoning Master Yao and Jin Zhong, the secretary of the military department, and Zhang Anshi." ”

Yisha hurriedly said: "The slave obeys the order." ”

Soon, one by one, important ministers appeared in the martial arts.

As for the battle plan of the Tatar Ministry, in fact, the Governor's Office and the Military Department of the Five Armies have drawn it up countless times.

Hearing that the Tartars were going to invade Hebei, the generals' mood was very high.

Because there are most Hebei people here, the governors are like this, and the generals are probably like this, and everyone asks for war.

Zhu Di issued an edict, Wenyuan Pavilion University Scholar, Jin Zhong, the secretary of the Ministry of War, accompanied the imperial driver, the prince supervised the country, and the five armies of the Governor's Mansion except for Xu Huizu, the Duke of Wei, stayed behind, and the Duke of Qi and the Duke of Chengguo followed the army.

All of a sudden, the five major battalions, the three thousand battalions, and the Shenji battalion were allocated one after another, and the prefectures and counties allocated money and grain to prepare for military supplies.

Of course, Zhang Anshi, according to the usual practice, wants to ask for war.

Everyone is asking for a fight, there's no reason why he shouldn't go.

Outcome...... Zhu Di really ordered Zhang Anshi's general.

The model battalion was ordered to go north and join the major battalions in Beiping.

Zhang Anshi was a little confused, he didn't like to fight and kill, originally he just meant to fight, why did His Majesty take it seriously!

But if you think about it, it makes sense for Zhu Di to do this.

Zhu Di's temperament, every time he recruits in person, it is like moving, bringing all the important people with him.

Fortunately, Zhu Zhanji has not grown up yet, if he is older, Zhu Di should take his grandson to the desert.

What's more, Zhu Di already had high expectations for the model battalion, and he hoped to test whether the model battalion could play a sufficient role in the battle against the Tartars.

Once it is proved that the model battalion can effectively suppress the Tartars' cavalry warfare methods, then in the future, it will become a matter of urgency to extend the model battalion to the base.

So this trip, Zhang Anshi has to go.

Zhang Anshi sighed, ended the meeting, he drooped his head, and listened to the movement behind him.

But it was Yao Guangxiao and Jin Zhong who said one by one: "Now it's okay, Your Majesty is personally recruiting, Amitabha, old Taoist, it seems that we are going to have a feast." ”

"I just don't know if there's fasting in this banquet."

"It's okay, it's okay, even if it's not, it's okay." Yao Guangxiao continued with his eyebrows: "Anyway, the Buddha is not in his heart, he can also burn the relics, this practice is good, it is better to master the fire when burning the relics, it's a big deal, the poor monk feeds the tiger with his body, eats it, the so-called I don't go to hell, who goes to hell, Amitabha." ”

Zhang Anshi couldn't help but turn his head and said strangely: "What, who is dead?" ”

Yao Guangxiao and Jin Zhong both looked at Zhang Anshi meaningfully, and Jin Zhong said: "No one died, but they drank happy wine." ”

Zhang Anshi came up with an answer in an instant, blinked and said, "The person you said about the happy wine, the person who set up the banquet, is it me?" ”

Yao Guangxiao and Jin Zhong both laughed, and Jin Zhong said: "It is worthy of Annanhou, it is really easy to understand, you see, didn't you give all the six gifts?" The wedding date is approaching, this trip is going to be with the royal driver, I see, if you don't finish your banquet, you won't be able to leave the capital. ”

Zhang Anshi felt that it was very reasonable, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Hey...... It seems that this is the case, if I leave without marriage, my sister has to strangle me, women are so troublesome. ”

Zhang Anshi thought of his own urgency, and he only had helplessness in his head.

In this world, the crown princess Zhang, who dares to say that she is troublesome?

That is, Zhang Anshi, an unobstructed guy, dares to open this mouth.

Yao Guangxiao and Jin Zhong couldn't help laughing again, this time Yao Guangxiao said: "Do you want to invite a monk to chant at the banquet, if there is a good omen, you will be able to give birth to a big fat boy in the coming year." ”

Jin Zhong immediately continued: "When I get married, I can ......"

Zhang Anshi hurriedly waved his hand: "Stop, stop, you don't have to, I prefer to be simple, I am tired of the two, I really don't want to go." ”

Really.

As soon as the news came out.

The crown princess Zhang immediately asked people to come to Zhang Anshi to see him.

Zhang looked at Zhang Anshi and said domineeringly: "What do you think of the girl of the Xu family?" ”

Zhang Anshi said awkwardly: "It's all up to Sister A." ”

Isn't this a pro-mention? What else can you see?

Zhang laughed angrily: "Look at you like this, you still know how to twist?" ”

After that, he took out a copy of Huang Lilai and threw it directly to Zhang Anshi: "Just two days, one is three days later, the ninth day of December, and the other is December 11th, all of which are good and auspicious days, you can do it yourself." ”

Zhang Anshi said embarrassedly: "The ninth day, the ninth day, it's a long time, this is a good sign." ”

Seeing that Zhang Anshi was so simple, Zhang sighed and said: "It shouldn't have been so hasty, but you are about to go to Beiping, and you may even have to go to the desert with you. My father and emperor have to defend themselves against the enemy, let alone us? ”

"It's not a family, I'm not at ease as a sister, my father died early, and we're left with my sister and brother to depend on each other, if I don't watch you become a family, I won't be able to sleep and eat all day! If something happens to you outside, then even if our Zhang family has great blessings, what's the use? ”

As she spoke, her eyes turned red and tears welled up in her eyes.

Zhang Anshi couldn't see his sister like this, so he had to hurriedly say: "Yes, yes, I also have this plan, a man's husband, how can there be a reason to not be a family?" Sister, I really want to get married, don't cry. ”

Zhang waited for Zhang Anshi's words, and was happy all of a sudden, and said: "If it is an ordinary woman, Sister still refuses you to marry, this girl of the Xu family is a real good daughter, she will be there in the future, and she will take care of the affairs of the family for you, and you will be down-to-earth outside." ”

"Okay, these six gifts have also been given, and I got married on the ninth day of the first month, I was indeed in a hurry, but there was no way, just like Fang just said, you don't have to worry about this, teach your brother-in-law to go and tell Wei Guogong, it is our two families who say yes, or it is Your Majesty who gives marriage. No matter what the reason, this pro has to be knotted. ”

Zhang Anshi nodded, and said, "Then I'll go and prepare a bride price." ”

Seeing that his younger brother was so honest, Zhang said in a good mood: "You don't have to worry about this, just worry about your brother-in-law." ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Will this be bad, I feel uncomfortable." ”

Zhang Shi suddenly stiffened his face again and said, "Then you go and do it." ”

"Forget it." Zhang Anshi shrugged: "I think about it, I'm still young, I'm afraid I don't know what to do about these things, or my brother-in-law is good at it, he has experience." ”

After the discussion was decided, Zhang's anger turned into joy.

Since Zhang Anshi doesn't have to worry about it, when he gets married, Zhang Anshi will only have one person, and Zhang Anshi will really be the shopkeeper.

Now there are thousands of households, but they are already busy.

Around the case of Ji Gang's collusion with the Tatar Ministry and the Uliangha Ministry, there are reports from various places every day.

The model battalion has also been transferred, and they first went to Zhenjiang in a boat, and then turned through the Grand Canal to Beiping to begin to deploy defenses.

The emperor personally marched, and the real departure date may be after the spring of the next year, but the mobilization of various armies and grain and grass needs to be carried out as soon as possible.

This time may take up to two or three months.

Farewell to the model battalion.

Immediately, the five major battalions were transferred one after another.

Nowadays, the river is full of ships, transporting grain and grass, as well as warships, which is magnificent.

On the night of the eighth day of the new year, Zhang Anshi was called.

The Zhang family mansion in Nanjing City has been renovated, and the whole mansion is full of lights.

Zhu Gaochi, who had recovered from his body, personally brought the eunuchs to Zhang Luo, and all the gifts had been prepared.

The royal relatives and nobles in the capital are also ready to go, which is obviously a carnival to please the East Palace.

The Son of Heaven also issued several edicts and gave many rewards.

Zhang Anshi only slept for two or three hours before he was dug up from the comfortable bed by several brothers.

Zhang Anshi looked at the gray sky outside the window with sleepy eyes, and said with an aggrieved face: "It's still early." ”

"Greet your relatives as soon as possible." Zhu Yong said: "Big brother, if it's too late, it's not appropriate." I heard that the Xu family's side is already ready. ”

Zhang Anshi said helplessly: "If only you didn't have to greet your relatives, just go directly to the cave room, I hate these red tapes the most." ”

Zhang Anshi said, Zhu Yong's three brothers scratched their heads together, they all smiled, and said in unison: "Big brother is right, we think so too." ”

When the time passed, the welcoming team set off, and the momentum was huge.

Zhu Gaochi was at Zhang's house, starting the etiquette of Zhang Luo's upcoming marriage in the church, and directing the eunuchs to prepare the banquet.

The Zhang family is in the back hall, and many people who have some connections with the Zhang family, these ladies and wives have already arrived, and they have been accompanying them in the back hall.

It's not lively for a while.

Zhu Zhanji didn't pay attention to it at this time, so he had to take his companion and hide in the corner, sitting under the steps, supporting his head, looking annoyed.

He seems to be worried about his uncle, and his uncle may not be able to grasp such a major event as getting married.

When Zhang Anshi took Xu Jingyi back, the wives came out one after another and looked at each other.

…………

Qixia Prison.

In this little cell.

Ji Gang was unkempt, at this time he was covered in blood, and after several days of continuous torture, his whole body was completely exhausted.

The bones of his legs, the flesh and skin turned out.

At this point, he leaned against the wall and lifted his tattered breeches, exposing the knee.

At the knees, the flesh has long since rotted and swollen with abscesses.

But he looked very calm, holding his very long little finger nails, which were now sharpened by him like a blade.

He carefully used the nail to pick at the abscess at the knee, and his eyes, behind the loose hair, stared at the abscess.

Little by little, the abscess was punctured, and pus and blood overflowed.

Call......

He suddenly muttered in a low voice, "The ninth day of the twelfth month...... The ninth ...... of the first month Marriageable...... It's a good day...... Good...... Ok and ......."

As he punctured the abscess, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, revealing a treacherous and eerie smile.

"Haha...... Ha ha...... Good day ......"

The captain outside, hearing the movement in the cell, patted the door outside and scolded, "Shut up." ”

Ji Gang didn't care, but said calmly: "There should be a happy event today." ”

"What does it have to do with you, a death row inmate?"

"Of course it does." Ji Gang actually grinned at this time: "Of course it is related...... Related......

His voice became softer and softer, until the captain outside couldn't hear it, but his breath did not stop, and he continued to say in a voice as low as a mosquito: "I, Ji Gang, turned over, just today...... Ha ha...... It's not easy, it's not easy...... I didn't think about it, but I finally survived......"

His eyes were red, and then, there was a sudden sharp edge in his eyes.

There was a sword-like light and shadow in his eyes.

…………

A young man walked through the doors of the instrument.

Eventually, we reached the depths of this house.

And in the depths of this, there are two people muttering at this time.

One of them, dressed in a Tatar fur jacket, had a full beard.

The other person was dressed as a businessman, wearing a cloth robe with a round neck.

When the young man saw them, he crossed his hands and saluted, "Two ...... of the world."

"Hmm." They both nodded at the young man.

"It's almost time, isn't it?" The Tatars glanced at the merchants.

Shang Jia smiled and said, "Ji Dudu, it's really clever. In my opinion......... It's time to get started. ”

The young man looked anxious: "My father is still in prison, and his life and death are unknown......"

"Don't worry...... the businessman-looking humane: "Ji Dudu can't die, and the emperor can't bear to die." ”

"Now is the time, let's all go ahead with the original plan." The Tatar didn't say anything, but said, "It's just after the ...... is done."

The young man said: "Please rest assured, the Ji family will repay the kindness." ”

"Okay."

The merchant and the Tatar looked at each other, as if they had made up their minds.

"Do it."

…………

Zhu Di has been restless for the past few days.

He always frowned, and he had already gone through the battle in his mind over and over again about the upcoming battle in Monan.

However, Zhu Di is in a good mood today.

He looked at Yishiha, who was standing on the side, with a smile and said, "Did Zhang Anshi take the kiss?" ”

"I've gone to pick it up, and at about this time, it's time to get married." Yisha frowned and smiled.

Zhu Di said: "It's not easy, watching the children around me get married one by one......"

Yisha said: "His Royal Highness King Yi has also gone, and he is very happy today." ”

Zhu Dihu said with a grimace: "No wonder I feel that there seems to be a pair of eyes missing in the palace today. ”

Yisha smiled and said, "His Royal Highness King Yi is only lively when he goes down." ”

Zhu Di was curious: "Why is this?" ”

"Your Majesty, you forgot." Yisha frowned and continued: "He is the best at being a gentleman on the beam. ”

When Zhu Di heard this, he laughed: "Damn, it makes sense." But it's also lost, you eunuch, what are you happy about, are the eunuchs going to the Qinglou? ”

Yisha said aggrievedly: "The so-called success does not have to be me, the slave maid is still happy to see someone else marry and enter the cave room." ”

Zhu Di only kept shaking his head and smiled: "Hmm...... I don't need to report anything today, this is a day of great joy, and I don't want those messy things to make me unhappy. ”

Yisha nodded, and then said: "Your Majesty is still unhappy about the doctor surnamed Zhou?" ”

Yisha asked cautiously.

Zhu Di said indifferently: "This is just a clown jumping off the beam, what is there to worry about?" Scold...... DID YOU KNOW...... ...... with the surname Zhou Why didn't I rush to deal with it? ”

He said, "Listen to the slave." ”

Zhu Di said casually: "If the surname Zhou is brought by the King of Han, I will be wary of one or two points, although the King of Han is stupid, but after all, he is a fighter, he has his strengths, the King of Han is suspicious, I will inevitably use thunderous means to completely suppress him, so as to teach him to never think about nothing." But my other son, what is he? Is he worthy of it? ”

Yisha listened, and his heart was pounding.

Zhu Di continued to say slowly: "This doctor surnamed Zhou, don't be in a hurry to investigate, I am still waiting, waiting for that son of a scumbag to come and ask for guilt." If he knows each other, before the spring of the next year, he will cry in front of me, and I will remember the love between father and son, but I can be lenient. If he still pretends to be nothing, this surnamed Zhou will have to be thoroughly investigated, and then he will ...... There's really no love at all. ”

Seeing that Zhu Di was cold, he hurriedly bowed down and said, "Your Majesty Shengming." ”

Zhu Di frowned unconsciously, and then said, "What I am afraid of is precisely that Ji Gang...... Ji Gang is a person...... I underestimated him at the beginning, and now that he has been caught, his henchmen are still at large, and even collude with the Tatars and Uliangha to make trouble, huh...... If I can't kill them all completely, I won't be reconciled. ”

Yisha hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, Zhang Anshi is loyal to the country, and he is worried about the king, and he is ......."

Zhu Di waved his hand: "The two of you, but you are singing and harmonizing, and you are also lost, I am not old yet, are you starting to think about retreating?" ”

As soon as these words came out, he was so frightened that he suddenly changed his color, and said hurriedly: "The slave doesn't have this mind. ”

Zhu Di smiled and said, "I actually know that you didn't mean that, but ah...... The evaluation of Zhang Anshi, whether it is good or bad, must be from the bottom of his heart, don't always be good because he is the prince's wife and brother, what kind of virtue is Zhang Anshi, I don't know? He has weaknesses as well as his strengths. Everyone has his shortcomings, but his strengths are beyond the reach of others. ”

After a pause, Zhu Di continued: "Okay, let's go to Zhang's house, bring me a message, ordinary people have to give gifts when they get married, and I don't have anything special to give, just give him 10,000 taels of silver." ”

Yisha calculated in his heart, his most reward was 500 gifts, and Zhang Anshi was 10,000 taels...... has been busy for so many years, and if you join his mother, one Zhang Anshi is equal to twenty of our family.

Yisha smiled and said: "The slave maid has long wanted to go, go and get some joy, the slave and maid are worried, now this palace is deserted, Your Majesty, you ......"

Zhu Di said: "I am alone, you don't have to care." ”

"Yes." Yisha said: "The slave and maid are gone." ”

……

Zhang's house is full of friends.

Zhang Anshi instructed Zhang San to remember to collect the money.

And all the etiquette must be recorded, and it is best to be in front of the guests, so as not to come across some goods that eat and drink for nothing.

When explaining this matter, Zhang Anshi's eyes slanted in the direction of Yao Guangxiao and Jin Zhong.

Zhang Sanying said: "Son, don't worry about it, go to the church to get married with peace of mind, the little one understands." ”

Zhang Anshi said: "If you are not your mother, if you are not confused on weekdays, do you still need me to explain?" I don't want to worry about it, but aren't I worried about the Zhang family's loss? ”

Zhang San was so scolded that he didn't dare to reply, so he had to respond aggrievedly.

On the other side, there was a humanitarian: "What about the groom official, what about the groom official, the auspicious time has come, and it is time to worship the church." ”

"It's coming, it's coming." Zhang Anshi hurriedly followed the sound.

After worshipping the church, everyone immediately made a noise to send Zhang Anshi into the cave room.

Zhang Anshi led the bride and entered the new house in the back hall, where the red candle was already rising.

The Wei Mansion is very atmospheric, and there are sixteen girls who accompany the marriage, all of them are very smart.

This made Zhang Anshi feel very emotional, the bride of the ancients was atmospheric, unlike his sister.

Zhang Anshi lifted the hood, and saw Xu Jingyi with makeup on her face, and lowered her eyes shyly at this time.

Zhang Anshi said: "Tired, let's eat some wine and food first." ”

"Hmm."

The outside is eaten by the guests, while the bride and groom eat and drink in the cave room, and this is the completion of the ceremony.

Xu Jingyi didn't have much appetite, so she only drank some wine lightly.

Zhang Anshi ate some and said, "Later, there may be something wrong." ”

"Hmm." Xu Jingyi said shyly: "I ...... I know. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "There may be some dangers, there is a disaster of blood and light. ”

Xu Jingyi pinned her pretty face to the side: "When I was in the boudoir, it was all arranged by my parents, but now that I am married to my husband, I am at the mercy of my husband." ”

Zhang Anshi said: "No, no, no, no, I can do it alone, I have to eat more, and only when I am full can I have strength." ”

A ...... alone

Xu Jingyi blinked, and under her long eyelashes, the pupils in her eyes showed suspicion.

This is a little different from what the mother-in-law of the Xu family taught, doesn't it mean...... Do you want two people?

Could it be ...... Mammas taught it wrong?

Zhang Anshi feasted on it, and then took a few sips of wine, and suddenly his face was red, and he suddenly became bold, and said: "Heroes in the world, only Your Majesty and I Zhang Anshi are also." ”

Xu Jingyi: "......"

"Alright, you go to sleep."

"I ...... I ......" Xu Jingyi said with a little shyness: "I'll serve my husband first." ”

At this moment, outside the cave room.

There was a sharp knock on the door.

Xu Jingyi was shocked again.

Zhang Anshi went to open the door.

Whoa......

Zhu Yong, Zhang Yuan, and Qiu Song rushed in.

Behind them, the figures are longing, and the black pressure is all people.

"Big brother, sure enough...... There's movement. ”

Zhu Yong said excitedly: "Chen Li's cowardice doesn't dare to call you, so I have to teach us to call the eldest brother, yo, this is not the sister of the Xu family......"

Zhang Anshi scolded: "Let's get down to business." ”

Zhu Yong said: "I found that there are traces of large-scale transportation on the river, and they are going to do it." ”

Zhang Anshi said excitedly: "I knew that Ji Gang's bastard had a backhand, did he summon it?" ”

"It's all called."

Zhang Anshi said excitedly: "Fuck it, brothers, all copy guys." ”

Outside the cave room, a group of men screamed excitedly, and drew their knives together: "Kill!" ”

Xu Jingyi: "......"
