Ma Xianglin and Zheng Haizhu walked side by side, and after listening to her analysis, they were silent for a moment, and said: "Ye Gong has a heart. The Son of Heaven is even more measured, leaving me alive, so that I will not be separated from my mother, wife and daughter. ”

Zheng Haizhu listened to him sincerely, and said, "It's good that you can think like this."

The twilight was four, and the breath was even stronger, and the few brocade guards who followed behind them, although they were wrapped in their collars, also began to sniff their noses.

Zheng Haizhu didn't mean to go down the city wall, but turned back to Jinyiwei and said, "You guys are waiting here, I have something to say to General Ma." ”

Two figures, one tall and one short, continued to move westward.

When he arrived at the female wall facing the urn city, Zheng Haizhu stopped, pointed to the vast heaven and earth, and said: "I just asked the post chief, dozens of miles to the northwest, it is the seat of Xuanfu Town, where the Governor's Mansion and the General Soldier's Mansion are located. Less than 100 miles to the northwest, is Zhangjiakou. Between Zhangjiakou and Biansaiye Fox Ridge, there are three or four military forts. ”

"Wild Fox Ridge?"

"Well, that's where Genghis Khan destroyed the elite of the Jin Kingdom back then," Zheng Haizhu turned to the right front again, "Xianglin, look at the northeast direction, this is two hundred miles, it is the Kaiping Wei who retreated south during the time of Xuanzong." Therefore, Yehuling and Kaipingwei are each other's horns, guarding a large section of the border between Xuanfu Town and Beiyu, and Zhangjiakou is just on this border. But Zhangjiakou is now the wharf where the leaders of the Jin merchants are intertwined, and we have to find a place in the grassland to the north. ”

Ma Xianglin is a native of Sichuan, and even if he is stationed at Shanhaiguan in the east for a while, he is still very unfamiliar with the terrain and the distribution of military forts and guards in Xuanda Beisai.

But what made him a little confused was Zheng Haizhu's words.

"What do you mean by looking for a place to the north?"

"The newly opened tea and horse market," Zheng Haizhu turned around and stared at the general with doubts in his eyes, "Xianglin, Zhu Qianhu's heart is filthy and vicious, but when he came to climb me, some of his words were right. In this court, there are a few virtuous ministers, but there are more rotten people. We can't believe too much in those who live in the temple, especially in the first few years, but we are afraid that the party struggle will be more intense. We have to keep saving money for ourselves. Do you remember General Mao Wenlong, right? Although he had a good relationship with the chief soldier Zhang Chengyin, after he arrived in Dongjiang Town, the imperial court never gave enough money. He successively recruited young people from Liaodi to support them like a family, and at least half of the expenses were taken by his son from the dividends of our Haoming Trading Company. ”

Ma Xianglin realized: "You let me be Mao Wenlong of Xuanfu Town?" ”

"Yes," Zheng Haizhu said decisively, "otherwise? Later, if I really come up with a way to get the Son of Heaven to return the cavalry of Shanhaiguan to you, even if Governor Cui and Master Zhao ask for your salary, will the court definitely be able to give you enough? You and Zhang Mingshi are both people who have been imprisoned, and the team of the Qi family army back then, who had been so loyal and desperate in North Korea and Jizhen, could be slandered as 'begging for wages' by the imperial history of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China. ”

Ma Xianglin sighed heavily.

He put his forearm wearing a cowhide protector on the city wall, and his eyes fell on the urn city below the main city.

The urn city in the night is as quiet as a big well.

But in Ma Xianglin's view, the urn city of the black hole seemed to have become a sunny shooting range in an instant, and the Qi family soldiers who walked into the shooting range unguarded and waited for the imperial court to pay were shot to death by Ji Zhen soldiers, who were also Ming troops, in the bright sunshine.

Zheng Haizhu felt Ma Xianglin's depressed atmosphere, so he softened his tone and said, "Don't mention the past." Before I came back to Xuanfu this time, I went to meet Ye Xianggao through Yang Lian's guidance, and asked him for a handwritten letter to Cui Dudu. It's just a greeting and encouragement, but at least it can allow me and Cui Dudu to meet and talk. Xianglin, my plan is that you and Zhang Mingshi would better go to the military fort between Yehuling and Wanquan Youwei, close to Zhangjiakou, and take root first. At the same time, I have to find a way to persuade Cui Dudu to open a new wharf between Yehuling and Kaipingwei in the east, further north than Zhangjiakou, to save our military salaries. ”

Ma Xianglin's gaze left the secluded urn city and returned to Zheng Haizhu's face.

And a crescent moon rose from heaven, and it could not illuminate the faces of the people of the earth.

But Ma Xianglin knew that the woman's demeanor was just like the boat in Yuegang back then, with high spirits in the depths of Pingning.

She has never underestimated the sinister nature of the rivers and lakes and the court, but she will not be like those officialdom and battlefield defeats, and she will not be as lazy as those officialdom and battlefield defeats.

The current situation, which has caused many people to be resentful and discouraged, seems to her to be nothing more than fog barriers and ravines.

The fog barrier could not prevent the gulls from flying over the sea, and the ravines could not prevent the war horses from running through the Liaoyuan.

"Okay, it's up to you." Ma Xianglin said to his trusted best friend.

Suddenly, he remembered something, and his face, which had just been relaxed, was solemn again.

"Ah Zhu, that Grandpa Wei, do you want to use it as a helper?"

Zheng Haizhu said calmly: "Yes, I have an errand to run around after that, and I need the help of an old and spicy internal official." But Wang An is about to be promoted to the palm seal of the celebrant supervisor, and if I use those cronies who are known to the inner court and the outer court, I will become a handle for the official to attack Wang An. ”

Ma Xianglin said: "Your plan, I naturally won't beak." I just want to ask you, this person, but the palace he entered as an adult? ”

"Yes, he himself said that he was close to his age when he entered the palace. What's wrong? ”

Ma Xianglin hesitated slightly, but finally said bluntly: "I suspect him, and he is not a real eunuch." Adult men are different from the French style of castration of boys, and I also listened to Cui Wenjing, a native of Hebei. If it is a six- or seven-year-old boy, the family will crush the yang pill little by little, and the yang thing will not languish for a long time. However, if you are an adult when you enter the palace, you must remove the yang pill and the yang object together. I had a close relationship with Liu Shimin before, and he always carried incense pills on him to cover up the urine turmoil, because he drowned and leaked from time to time. ”

Zheng Haizhu said: "Liu Shimin does have a lot of incense on his body, but Wei Jinzhong is also a fragrance. ”

"But yesterday when I was on the road, in the field, I ordered the tooth pawn to secretly follow him once, and he was standing and peeing."

Zheng Haizhu's heart moved.

Sure enough, as he guessed, Wei Zhongxian may really be as recorded in the history of later generations, and still retains some of the physiological functions of men.

If the eunuch is cut off the whole penis, the urine will lose its access, and the way of excretion will be the same as that of a woman, squatting and peeing. If a eunuch is still standing and peeing, it means that he should still have a complete penis.

Seeing Zheng Haizhu's thoughtful look, Ma Xianglin said admittedly: "I know that you have always treated eunuchs as contemptuously as our men do for them. Even Liu Shimin, at the last moment, he still has a bit of a human appearance. But this Wei Jinzhong, I think he is different from Liu Shimin, he looks like a rat, I'm worried about ......"

"You're right," Zheng Haizhu interrupted him, "Wei Jinzhong is indeed a rat. Although Liu Shimin has been with me for so long, he and Wei Jinzhong are two kinds of people. Xianglin, don't worry, I know it in my heart. But what you tell me today may be of great use in the future. ”
