Chapter Seventy-One: Uncle Zhang
In the Jeju Prefecture, Jeju Taishou Zhang Shuye sat in the hall, Zhu Tong and Huang An stood at the foot of the steps, and there was also a Marquis Yu in the Liangzhong Shufu of the Beijing Daimyo Mansion standing on the side, and there was a man kneeling on the ground to complain in the hall, that is, He Tao, the arrest envoy who went to Yuncheng County to arrest Chao Gai and his gang in vain.
After He Tao said something, Uncle Zhang raised his head, stared at He Tao with a pair of sharp eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Is there any untruth? ”
When He Tao heard this, he hurriedly kowtowed to the ground, and hurriedly said: "The lower officials dare not deceive the lord of the mansion, that Chao Gai and a group of thieves have indeed gone to the Liangshan Mountain and fallen into the grass, and the lower officials are powerless to pursue and suppress, so they returned to Jeju to resume their lives." ”
"Then go down and take eighty rods for yourselves." Uncle Zhang's face was angry, and he waved his hand impatiently.
He Tao listened, raised his head with a frightened face, the three classes of officials in this mansion are all soldiers who followed the prefect in the past, and the spine staff is never soft, and the eighty spine canes must not lose most of their lives, He Tao hurriedly shouted: "Lord Fuzun, the lower officials have no merit and hard work, please spare your life." ”
"Humph! You are on a mission and you leaked the news but you don't know it, and you dare to say that you have worked hard and dragged it out. ”
Uncle Zhang scolded angrily, and a servant stepped forward and dragged the deflated He Tao out like a dead dog, and after a while, he heard bursts of heart-rending wails outside the hall.
At this time, the Marquis of the Daimyo Mansion was about to come out, and he hugged his fists at Uncle Zhang and said: "Lord Zhang, this matter is the order of Taishi Cai, please send troops immediately and go to Naliang Mountain to eliminate the thieves." ”
Uncle Zhang glanced at the Marquis Yu impatiently, and shouted: "Don't use Cai Jing's old thief to scare the mansion, how to act The mansion has its own plans, and you don't need a little Marquis Yu to point fingers." ”
That Yu Hou's scolded legs were like sifting chaff, looking at Zhang Shuye's murderous and sharp eyes like a falcon, he only felt like standing in a sea of corpses and blood.
In the third year of Daguan, Zhang Shuye impeached Prime Minister Cai Jing from his younger brother Zhang Kegong, Cai Jing was angry with Zhang Shuye, found out Zhang Shuye's small mistakes, and demoted him to the supervisor of Xi'an Grassland.
A few years later, he was recalled to Jingshi, all the way to the Ministry of Rites, Zhang Shuye was jealous of Cai Jing because of his strong demand to get rid of the disadvantages of "empty yellow", and was demoted to Haizhou as the governor, and was not transferred to Jeju until three years ago.
It is because Zhang Shuye and Cai Jing are inseparable opponents, and Zhang Shuye didn't want to care about the old thief's birthday, but Cai Jing took the will of the court to do things, and Zhang Shuye had to obey. was already angry, and at this time, this Yu Hou used Cai Jing to suppress Uncle Zhang, and naturally hit the muzzle of the gun.
Uncle Zhang turned his head at night, looked at Zhu Tong and Huang An at the bottom of the stairs, and said in a deep voice: "Which of the two of you went to Yuncheng County and wiped out the Shuibo Liangshan." ”
As soon as the words fell, he heard that Huang An, the deputy regimental training envoy, bowed down and said: "Lord Fuzun, Huang An is willing to go to Yuncheng County to share your worries." ”
When Uncle Zhang heard this, he raised his eyelids and said to Zhu Tong: "What does Zhu Tuanlian think?" ”
"Zhu is slightly ill today, and I am afraid that I will miss the major event of the Fuzun, so I should ask Huang Tuanlian to take a walk." When Zhu Tong heard this, he hurriedly bowed down and answered.
Zhu Tong glanced at Huang An without a trace, this Shuibo Liangshan seems to be easy to deal with, but it is not so simple to exterminate it, but it is said that Liangshan Bo is eight hundred miles across the water network, and its internal strife and undercurrent, broken head Gangmo, and desperate forests are as many as cow hairs, if there is no water army to help, it is difficult to move an inch.
Uncle Zhang listened to it at night, looked at Zhu Tong meaningfully, and after a while, he said to Huang An: "In this case, there will be a Huang Tuan training envoy to go through, I don't know how many military horses the Huang Tuan training envoy needs?" ”
"I don't have much ability to measure those mountains and grasses, and the lower officials only need a thousand soldiers and horses to exterminate them." Huang An responded with disdain, in his heart, Chao Gai, Wu Yong and others were just some reckless people, in addition to being bolder, they were so good that they could have other skills.
Zhu Tong heard this, and persuaded him: "Brother Huang, Zhu is a native of Yuncheng County, and Liangshan has also passed by in the past, among which the undercurrent is surging, the waterway is complicated, and a thousand soldiers and horses are not sure of victory. ”
"The so-called soldiers are bears and bears, and the Zhu regiment is used to leading a large team of men and horses to suppress bandits on weekdays, so naturally they don't know how to call it the art of war."
Huang An glanced at Zhu Tong with contempt in his eyes, although this person does not have much ability, but he is quite jealous, in the early years, he was the deputy regimental training envoy of Jeju, and after the previous regimental training envoy was transferred, it should be replaced by him, who knew that the later prefect Zhang Shuye reused Zhu Tong who came out of nowhere, and pressed him alive, Huang An has long been impatient with this.
Zhu Tong listened to it and said no more, Huang An's desire to replace himself was well known to everyone in Jeju Mansion, so he glanced at Huang An like a dead man and returned to his position.
"Since Huang Tuanlian is so confident, he will lead a thousand elite soldiers, and tomorrow he will send troops to Liangshan to suppress bandits." Uncle Zhang waved his hand at Huang An and said casually.
Huang An was ordered to retreat, and everyone in the palace also dispersed, but Zhu Tong was left behind by Uncle Zhang.
"In the past, when it came to suppressing bandits and quelling chaos, you Zhu Tong was the first to come out, not only did you not make a sound today, but you also shirked your physical discomfort, and the official asked you, if Zhu Saburo wrote to you again." Uncle Zhang glanced at Zhu Tong and said meaningfully.
Zhu Tong pondered for a moment, nodded helplessly, his face was as silent as water, Uncle Zhang's eyes were like torches, he couldn't hide it, and Zhu Tong didn't want to deceive this old man he respected from the bottom of his heart.
Uncle Zhang sighed heavily, looked at the eight-foot-long bearded man in front of him, and said with a complicated expression: "Zhu Tong, tell the truth to the old man, what does Zhu Saburo want to do?" ”
"Childe once said that if an adult asks this question one day, let Zhu answer that no matter in the past, now or in the future, Zhu Biao will not do anything that endangers the people of the community; A lot of things are involuntary, and I ask the boss to forgive me. Zhu Tong replied earnestly and earnestly.
"Do not endanger the people of the community...... Do not endanger the ...... of the people of the community"
Uncle Zhang heard this, muttered in his mouth, with inexplicable frustration in his voice, he always turned a blind eye to all kinds of things between Zhu Biao and Zhu Tong, just because he knew in his heart that Zhu Biao was a person, but some things were not something that an old man like him, who had served the court all his life, could agree with, and sighed in his heart: "Zhu Saburo only said that he would not harm the people of the society, which shows that he has no sense of identity with the Song Dynasty and today's officials, but people like him don't know what changes will be brought to the world." ”
After a while, Uncle Zhang raised his head and said to Zhu Tong: "I hope you can remember that you have always been a military general of the imperial court, not a general of Zhu Saburo." ”
