As Zhao Hu released the words that he wanted to recruit soldiers, Xishan began to become lively again.

Who doesn't know that the Changning Army has never expanded since half of its soldiers were cut in the fourteenth year of Wanli. Today, the news of the expansion of the army was finally released again, and everyone was gearing up and ready to join it and seek a good future for themselves.

As a result, the next request made everyone dumbfounded, "Officers above the rank of lieutenant general in the Changning Army can directly study, and the rest of the sergeants need to be assessed before they can enter." ”

In other words, first of all, you have to be a soldier to participate in this so-called admission.

The people who came here stopped doing it, and they were excited, and they gathered in front of the Xishan camp, so that these officials and masters could give an explanation.

"My lord, why don't you let us join the army, we want to join the army."

"Yes, is it wrong for us to want to defend our country? Let us in!! ”

"If they don't agree, let's go to Hou Ye and ask for help, is there anyone with me."

"Come out, come out ......"

“......”

Outside the camp, the shouts shook the sky, and the officers in the tent were uneasy.

In the big tent, Zhao Hu looked at Wang Zhong, who was calm and relaxed, and couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, "Lao Wang, this fire has burned your butt, why aren't you in a hurry at all"

Wang Zhong smiled, "What's the hurry?" When they shout tired, they will naturally leave. ”

"When is that going to happen, there are thousands of people out there."

Wang Zhong shook his head and smiled again, then covered his ears and walked straight to his big tent.

"Hey!" Zhao Hu sighed helplessly and walked quickly to the outside of the big tent.

"Commander Zhao!" The guards saluted when they saw him.

The onlookers knew that this was a big official, and their voices gradually became quieter.

Seeing this, Zhao Hu stepped on a high place in a few steps and shouted: "Fellow villagers, fathers, uncles and brothers.

This first batch of students is not going to recruit ordinary people, and will consider selecting the best from among you in the future. ”

As soon as the words fell, someone immediately took over the conversation: "When is the follow-up?" ”

The surrounding people echoed, "Yes, yes, we have to give a specific day, so that we can have a hope." ”

Zhao Hu recalled Zhang Yun's instructions and spoke again: "The short is one year, the long is three years, and please be patient." ”

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a commotion in the crowd, but it quickly subsided. Anyway, they've been waiting for two years, and it's not bad to wait another year or two.

During this time, they just exercised their bodies, but they heard that the recruitment of the Changning Army was very important for arm strength.

It's the same with everybody, as soon as one person takes the lead, a second person soon follows.

In the next moment, the originally bustling crowd dispersed.

Looking at the scattered crowd, Zhao Hu wiped the sweat on his head and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "I finally sent this group of ancestors away." ”

Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace.

In the palace, I saw Wanli sitting on the dragon chair, Feng Bao standing beside him, and Zhang Yun standing respectfully under the hall.

Wanli has matured a lot compared with five years ago, because Zhang Juzheng gave him some power, and Zhang Juzheng was not in the past three years, the experience of governing with his own hands made him more coercive between his gestures.

The same is true for Zhang Yun, who has become estranged from the emperor as he grows older and occupies a high position. There is no intimacy when the two of them sneaked out of the palace and slept on their feet.

In addition, Wanli, this kid often thinks about his daughter, Zhang Yun is a little bit of a kid to avoid him, this time there is really no way, so he entered the palace.

"Your Majesty, the ministers found that most of the military attachés of the Ming Dynasty, especially the low-level officers, could not read and write. The old minister wanted to recruit some students, teach them culture and military affairs, and enrich the armament of my Ming Dynasty. ”

Wanli nodded and said softly, "Yes." ”

Zhang Yun always paid attention to the changes in Wanli's expression. In the next moment, he then proposed: "The minister also wants to invite you to personally serve as the principal of this school." ”

He was originally going to be the principal himself, but as soon as he remembered the appearance of the students calling him the principal, a certain micro-gymnastics master would appear in his mind, and he shook his head again and again.

And if Wanli is the principal, there are other benefits, these students have become protégés of the Son of Heaven all of a sudden, and their status will also rise with the tide, and they can be directly awarded to officers at the general level as soon as they graduate.

However, Wanli didn't seem to be interested in this proposal, and he looked embarrassed: "This... I'm afraid it's not very convenient. ”

This principal is more or less an official position, and the emperor has sealed his official position, so it is estimated that only the ridiculous martial arts sect can do this kind of thing.

The situation was instantly deadlocked, and the room suddenly heard a pin drop.

After a long time, Wanli slowly spoke: "It's not a lot to let me be this principal, as long as you... Marry my daughter to my third prince. ”

Zhang Yun knew that this kid was going to say this again, didn't he just want to let himself support him to set up Concubine Zheng's son as the crown prince, and marrying his own daughter was just a means to entrap himself.

"Your Majesty, the little girl is stubborn, I'm afraid she won't be able to get into the eyes of the three princes." Zhang Yun hurriedly excused, "However, Your Majesty rest assured, the minister will definitely always be on His Majesty's side." ”

Although Zhang Yun did not let his daughter marry Zhu Changxun, he also indirectly showed his attitude.

Everything he has is given by Wanli, so he naturally has to rely on this eldest brother closely, if Wanli is hollowed out, his status will be worried.

"Good!!" Wanli got Zhang Yun's support, his serious expression became kind, and he said with a smile: "Then my Xiaojiu will marry your son, I rarely open my mouth twice a day, and this time I am not allowed to refuse." ”

"Your Majesty, the ninth princess is just over a year old, and Liang'er is afraid that she is older."

Wanli waved his hand again and again: "Who said that I married the eldest son, I want to marry her to your second son, Zhang Yu." ”

"The two were born in the same month, and it is also fate, you are not allowed to refuse."

Zhang Yun is like being hit by a big pie, if this second son can be a princess, it is a great thing, anyway, it is not the eldest son.

Although the status of the concubine in the Ming Dynasty was noble, he had no real power, so Zhang Yun had never wanted Princess Zhang Liangshang before.

Now that Zhang Yu is replaced, everything will be logical.

These nine princesses are the eldest daughters of Wanli and Zheng Guifei, in order to tie Zhang Yun to the Zheng family's warship, Zheng Guifei spared no effort, and even did not hesitate to marry her daughter to his second son.

After Wanli successfully sent her daughter, she naturally gritted her teeth and accepted the position of principal.

Feng Bao on the side wanted to speak, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed again. He is in his sixties this year, and it is time to say goodbye to his hometown.

Watching Wanli grow from a child to such a look, his tears couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Feng Daban, what's wrong with you?" Wanli noticed Feng Bao's strange appearance and asked out loud.

"Oh, the old slave is fine, I just remember some sad things from the past." Feng Bao squeezed out a smile and waved his hand, "Let the emperor and the marquis smile." ”

Zhang Yun looked at Feng Bao, who was aging Longzhong, and couldn't help but show a trace of unbearability in his eyes.

Previously, he also supported Zhang Cheng to suppress Feng Bao, but now it seems to be redundant.

Then there is no need to keep this sincerity.

After leaving the Qianqing Palace, Zhang Yun and Feng Bao walked side by side, and the atmosphere was dull and abnormal.

"Master Hou has become a lot more estranged from this old friend of our family." Feng Bao smiled and broke the silence.

"Father-in-law Feng, the kid will accompany you first.

In addition to that Zhang Cheng, if you have any candidate to replace you, even if you say it, I will also give him some care. ”

"Okay." Feng Bao responded lightly, and then sent a few more steps, "Let's get here, I will also send you here in the tenth year of Wanli." ”

Zhang Yun bowed his hand to Feng Bao, and then walked out slowly.

......

That night, Zhang Yun lay in bed, his mind full of what happened during the day.

Feng Bao gave him a lot of help during Zhang Juzheng's absence, and the two of them almost sparked because of their interests.

However, in the end, Feng Bao chose to give in, and the elder gave him too much help. Now, Zhang Yun has seen that Feng Bao's limit is approaching, and it will be a matter of the past two years at most.

"Alas, in the end I was too narrow-minded." Zhang Yun smiled bitterly, "It seems that in the future, I can only compensate Feng Bao's nephew who is not a weapon." ”

"Husband." A bone-chilling sound came and pulled him back to reality.

When he looked up, he saw Xu Xi wearing a nightdress as thin as silkworm yarn and white as snow, walking towards her slowly, as dazzling as a hibiscus out of water.

Between walking, it also brings bursts of fragrant wind.

"No, my husband is tired tonight." Zhang Yun was afraid of being aroused by this goblin, so he hurriedly refused.

"Oh." Xu Xi stepped directly over her husband and began to take off her clothes, revealing a large patch of snow-white skin.

"Gollum." Zhang Yun looked at his wife's beautiful figure, didn't dare to look at it more, and hurriedly closed his eyes.

Xu Xi soon only had one piece of underwear left, and then a pair of jade hands wrapped around her husband's neck, and said with a sigh of relief: "Hold me." ”

Zhang Yun reached out to hug her, and the two hugged each other intimately, and began to chat without saying a word.

"Lady, Yu'er was sold by me."

Xu Xi smiled and quipped, "Oh? Tell me who you sold to. ”

"Sold to the emperor, the emperor wants to marry the ninth princess to him."

"What?!" Xu Xi suddenly broke free from Zhang Yun's arms, "This... This, they are only more than a year old, how can this be. ”

Zhang Yun patted the stupid daughter-in-law's head: "It's not that you will get married right away, there are still more than ten years." ”

Xu Xi obediently lay back in her husband's arms: "Oh, I didn't expect this stinky boy to be so blessed to be able to marry a princess."

By the way, what about Hao'er, what about the purple-clothed sister? ”

Zhang Liang naturally wants to inherit his father's family business, and Zhang Yu is also a princess, leaving this son alone.

"Him, I have my own arrangements, rest assured, everyone has a share."

These sons Zhang Yun will pave the way for them, and it is up to them to get to where they can go.
