Chapter 55: The Governor

After Liang Hong returned home from the lower court, he told his mother that he was now a Beijing official of the sixth grade.

Liang's mother was very happy, and said that her son had a future, and Liang Hong said to Liang's mother: "Mother, you have to find a matchmaker as soon as possible and go to Xu's mansion to propose marriage, now that the child has completed the commitment to be admitted to the Jinshi, Xu Ge Lao will inevitably abide by his promise and match Yaya Xu with me." ”

When Liang's mother heard Liang Hong say this, she hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, yes!" I'm going to find a matchmaker! Liang's mother then changed her clothes and immediately went out in a hurry.

Liang Hong looked at his mother so anxious, and knew in his heart that he was really in a hurry to hold his grandson, after all, he was nineteen years old this year.

Liang Hong waited for news at home, after all, the new science and technology jinshi became the editor of the Hanlin Academy, including Bangyan and Tanhua, they were first officials, at this time, the imperial court would give two months of vacation, after all, the children came from all over the country, and it was not enough to go home if there was less leave.

Although Liang Hong has also settled in the capital, he also has a routine holiday.

Liang Hong just took advantage of this time to do his life's major events and marry Yaya.

After waiting at home for a long time, Liang's mother came back, and she was happy, and said to Liang Hong as soon as she came in: "It's done, I followed the matchmaker, but I was secretly waiting for the matchmaker to come out outside, I didn't have time to wait for news at home, and then as soon as the matchmaker came out, she told me that it was done, I gave her the silver directly and sent her away."

Oops, my son is finally getting married! For my mother......"

Liang's mother said, she actually shed tears, Liang Hong hurried over and comforted: "Mother, when I didn't marry, you waited for me to marry, why are you still crying now?" Otherwise, this family business will be retired, as long as the mother is happy. ”

As soon as Liang's mother heard this, she was immediately annoyed, and she picked up the feather duster on the table and was about to smoke Liang Hong, but when Liang Hong was about to take a hit, Liang's mother slowly put it down again, Liang Hong opened her eyes and saw Liang's mother looking at herself with a relieved face.

Liang Hong was shocked and hurriedly said, "Mother, what's wrong?" The kid was joking just now, don't you don't fight, you hit me, right? ”

Liang's mother smiled, put down the feather duster, and finally said softly: "My son is also an official now, how can my mother still fight?" ”

Liang Hong hurriedly said: "No matter how official you are, then it's not your son?" You should fight back! ”

Liang's mother shook her head slightly, and said, "You are about to marry a daughter-in-law, and your daughter-in-law will take care of you in the future." ”

Liang's mother said, and walked to her room, and when Liang's mother returned to the room, Liang Hong was a little late-aware, and felt that his mother's previous back was a little lonely.

Liang Hong didn't know what was going on, and suddenly a sense of melancholy and sadness enveloped his heart.

It is also a coincidence that three days later, it will be the auspicious day of the zodiac. Liang Hong has an official body at this time, so he wants to change to a larger house to live in, after all, there are more people in the family, and there will be more maids and boys.

However, the wedding date came too quickly, and Liang Hong didn't have time to look at the new house for the time being.

Today is Liang Hong's happy day, Liang Hong rode a high-headed horse, with a team to welcome relatives, and went to Xu's mansion in a mighty way.

In Xu's mansion, Liang Hong personally welcomed Xu Miaoya into the sedan chair.

In front of Xu Qiushan and other people from the Xu family, Liang Hongtuan made a gesture, and then after preparing to leave, Xu Qiushan suddenly stopped him: "Ziming~"

Liang Hong hurriedly looked over: "Father-in-law! ”

And Xu Qiushan was already in some tears at this time: "Ziming, you want, you have to treat Yaya well!" ”

In front of Liang Hong, this is no longer a high-ranking and powerful member of the cabinet like a second assistant, but a real old father, Liang Hong felt Xu Qiushan's reluctance to his daughter, and a deep father's love.

Liang Hong immediately knelt down and kowtowed towards Xu Qiushan, and said, "Father-in-law, don't worry, I will treat Yaya well!" ”

"Okay, are you going?" Xu Qiushan's old face looked a little older.

After Liang Hong turned around, Xu Qiushan said to the middle-aged housekeeper beside him, "Help me to rest in the back." ”

Xu Miaoya was married back to the house, and according to custom, the groom had to accompany the guests to eat and drink well at the banquet, and only then was he allowed to go back to the cave room to rest in the evening.

Liang Hong drank a lot that day, and until the evening, he vomited twice.

Finally, in the evening, Liang Hong walked into his new house.

At this time, in the new room, he and Xu Miaoya had some etiquette in front of the cave room, and then the two shared the bed......

Liaodong, outside the city of Shenyang.

Shenyang is the provincial capital of Liaodong, and the city is high and strong.

At this time, Wu Zhenren had already taken other small cities outside the big city of Jinzhou, and they were already connected with Shenyang.

At this time, the Wuzhen people have surrounded Shenyang City, although Shenyang City is very large, more than Jinzhou, but at this time, Wuzhen Zhenren is not his clan to attack Shenyang, but has united many tribes, big and small, to attack Shenyang City together, and the total number of people has exceeded 200,000.

In the city of Shenyang, there are only less than 30,000 Dakang defenders, how to defend it, which is a hurdle for the defenders in the city.

"You should take the initiative!" At this time, in the governor's yamen of Shenyang City, the governor Zhang Shimao yelled at Wu Keshi, "The art of war is to pay attention to surprise!" General Wu, you are also a person who leads and knows soldiers, you should understand this? ”

Wu Keshi was unmoved, and said: "Lord Governor, although I have always been a military general who is controlled by Wenchen, but I can't obey your order this time, my lord, I will dare to say a word." ”

"You say!" Governor Zhang Shimao said.

"The last general, the last general thinks," Wu Keshi swallowed his throat, but still spoke, "My lord, you are purely on paper!" ”

"What?!" Governor Zhang Shimao was immediately furious, "You dare to insult Shangguan? Wu Keshi! ”

"My lord," Wu Keshi suddenly knelt on the ground, "My lord, the last general is not insulting Shangguan ......"

It's just that before he finished his words, he was suddenly scolded by Zhang Shimao: "You contradicted and insulted Shangguan, and now this official has decided to temporarily arrest you, and wait until the court has new instructions before letting you go!" ”

At this time, Wu Keshi was suddenly shocked, and he looked at Zhang Shimao incredulously: "Lord Governor, you can't do this!" - I know, you want to send someone to fight with the Wuzhen, and I don't agree, so you just found an excuse to arrest me, Zhang Shimao, you dog officer, you, Shenyang will follow you to the funeral! You dog, you don't want to die——! ”

"Now, insulting Shangguan is more sufficient!" Governor Zhang Shimao showed a triumphant smile on his face at this time, and at this time, there were already officers and soldiers of the governor's battalion who controlled Wu Keshi, and Zhang Shimao said: "Take him down!" ”

At the head of the north city of Shenyang City, in the Liaodong leading generals, the general second only to the chief soldier Wu Keshi is the deputy chief soldier Chen Yue, at this time he is standing at the head of the city watching the camp of the Wuzhen people under the city, at this time it is noon, the Wuzhen people have stopped attacking the city, and are burying the pot to make food.

A general was next to Chen Yue and said, "Dashuai, you said this time, can we win?" The Wuzhen people unite the various departments, there are 200,000 troops, and we only have 30,000 people! ”

Chen Yue said at this time: "If you want to say that it's okay to defend the city, let's not look at the only 30,000 defenders, but we all know since ancient times that it is easy to defend the city but difficult to attack the city!"

Although we only have 30,000 defenders, I think if we really defend the city, we will at least be half separated from our real people. ”

"Half open? But ...... "The general was obviously skeptical.

Chen Yue said: "With my experience in war, as long as the soldiers are willing to use their lives......"

It's just that before he finished speaking, suddenly a herald ran over and said to Chen Yue: "The governor has an urgent summons!" ”

Chen Yue was stunned, isn't defending the city the first priority at this time? What are you summoning yourself for at this time?

Although thinking like this, but in the Dakang Dynasty, the civilian officials have always restrained the generals, this Chen Yue has naturally been a soldier for so many years, and he still has the consciousness of respecting the civilian officials.

So he didn't ask, he said directly: "Okay, I'll go over!" So he said to the general just now: "You first pay attention to the movements of the Wuzhen people in the city, and I will go to the governor's yamen first." ”

The general hurriedly clenched his fists and said, "Yes, Dashuai!" ”

So Chen Yue followed the herald and strode straight towards the governor's yamen.

Not long after, he came to the governor's yamen, Chen Yue walked in directly, and met the current leader of Liaodong in the governor's office - Governor Zhang Shimao.

"This official summoned you here to tell the deputy chief soldier a military secret, and it is also a military mission, Deputy Chief Chen, do you have the determination to carry out this secret military mission?"

"But as long as the court and the officials have orders, as soldiers, we will obey the military orders!" Chen Yue immediately said impassionedly.

"Very good, Deputy Chief Chen, this officer sees that you are also a capable and responsible person! It's much better than that Wu Keshi. Governor Zhang Shimao said with a smile.

"Wu Dashuai? He...... What happened to him? Chen Yue couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, feeling that Wu Keshi, who had always been very cautious, couldn't offend the governor, right?

I can't offend if I think about it, after all, this is my direct boss!

"What's wrong with him?" Governor Zhang Shimao immediately couldn't suppress his anger and said, "He actually contradicted the official, not only that, but he also insulted the official, and the official has temporarily detained him and waited for new instructions from the imperial court." ”

"This ......" Chen Yue was a little confused, in the face of the large-scale attack of the Wuzhen people, how could he arrest the general all of a sudden, and the commander was changed before this battle, but the art of war was taboo, Chen Yue subconsciously wanted to intercede for Wu Keshi: "Lord Governor, the change of commander before this battle is a matter of military hearts, please think twice!" ”

Governor Zhang Shimao said with a nonchalant face: "Without him Zhang Butcher, I still eat pigs with hair?" Then he looked at Chen Yue with a kind face: "Isn't there still Chen Dashuai?" ”
