Ma Wensheng actually had a headache and the generals retaliated against him.

On the battlefield, fighting against foreign enemies such as the Jurchens, Tatars, and Warats, Ma Wensheng has never been afraid.

He can fight back with steel knives and spears, blood for blood, and tooth for tooth.

However, the retrenched generals were not his enemies. At least he doesn't see them as enemies.

It's good to have a brocade guard for personal protection. Save yourself on guarding against a brazen sneak attack.

Chang Feng said: "Ma Butang. The emperor attaches great importance to your safety and has given us an order, even if you eat, sleep, and go to the toilet, we will follow."

Ma Wensheng said with a smile: "Fortunately, I am old and don't like women, and there is only one bad old wife in the family."

"If only I had a few concubines. Messing with the concubine at night, didn't you let the people of your Jinyi Guard see the picture of the living spring in vain?"

"Let's go. Come with me."

Chang Feng entered the mansion with Xu Fatzi, Shi Wenyi, and Qian Ning. The rest of the brothers stood guard around the house.

Chang Feng followed Ma Wensheng to the hall.

He was stunned! This is the hall of the mansion of the military department?

Ma Wensheng's mansion was given by Emperor Hongzhi.

But Emperor Hongzhi ignored one point. The house is empty. There is no furnishings in it.

Ma Wensheng had no choice but to pay his own copper money and let the old servant go to the old goods yard in Nancheng to pick out some furnishings.

Without exception, it's all bargains.

The tables and chairs are made of poplar wood. It is moth-eaten and spotted. But it's pretty clean.

A pair of hats were placed on the table in front of the hall, all with shovels. The crack above resembles a snake that twists and turns.

There is a notch in the tea cup on the table.

However, the couplets hanging on both sides of the hall are strong and atmospheric.

The upper link is "Cuizhu makes bones for the soul lotus".

The next link is "the people's heart is lingering in the mirror".

This Zhongtang joint signature turned out to be "Yu Jiean"!

Yu Qian, No. Jie Nunnery.

In the second year of Jingtai, Ma Wen was promoted to a junior high school, and the teacher was Yu Qian. Yu Qian sent Ma Wensheng this painting and advised him to be a clean official.

Thirty-nine years have passed, and Ma Wensheng has never dared to forget the teachings of his teacher.

No matter where he goes to be an official, he always carries this pair of Zhongtang Lian.

After Emperor Chenghua became Yu Qian***, he could finally hang up this Zhongtang Lianzheng and brightly, and always encourage himself to introspect.

In short, the furnishings of the treasure house of the military department of this dynasty are far from being comparable to the thousands of Changfeng families.

Ma Wensheng sat down: "You eat on weekdays, I can't afford it here. Good guys, more than a hundred strong men. Eat me, I'll be hungry for half a year."

"I can't take care of the accommodation. My house is big enough. But there aren't that many futons."

Chang Feng gave up his hand: "The subordinate robes changed shifts in two shifts, and went home to sleep on a business trip. I also take care of my own meals."

Marven said, "Yes! Hungry. Ma Ping, let's set the table!"

It is not only personal protection, but also follows when eating. Chang Feng followed Ma Wensheng to the dining room.

Ma Wensheng has an old wife and two sons.

The eldest son, Ma Xuan, was sent to Sichuan as a person to be the county master.

The youngest son, Ma Jue, is a gentleman and idle. Marven was so angry that he cut off relations with him.

Neither of the two sons is in the house.

In the dining room, there is a broken table with moth-eaten bites.

Ma Wensheng and Mrs. Ma went to the table.

The servant Ma Ping served the meal. Two bowls of corn, plus a plate of fried cabbage, four pieces of bean curd, and a plate of salted shredded radish, are the dinner of the second-grade master and the second-grade edict.

It sounds quite tall. In fact, it is the Chinese cabbage of later generations.

Chang Feng felt sad for a while: Ma Butang didn't know that I and the robes were coming today, obviously it wasn't pretending to be poor to show us, it was really poor.

Ma Wensheng felt that the shabby food at home had lost the face of the main hall of his military department in front of Jinyiwei.

After all, Jin Yiwei is

One of the 26 guards of the pro-army, nominally under the command of the military department, Ma Wensheng was their top boss.

So Ma Wensheng said, "I'm tired of eating delicacies from the mountains and the sea. Change the flavor once in a while. Don't you hear a folk proverb that fish produces phlegm, and flesh produces fire? Woad and tofu to keep you safe?" Look at the book

Chang Feng hurriedly nodded: "The ministry is high."

After eating, Ma Wensheng started his nightlife.

Chenghua Dynasty's papier-mâché three pavilion old, clay sculpture six books, as soon as the night goes to the banquet, admires the thin horse, listens to Kunqu opera, and enjoys it to the fullest.

Ma Wensheng's nightlife is to review the documents reported by the provincial capital departments and health offices, and study the map.

Chang Feng is on duty tonight to protect Ma Wensheng.

He watched Ma Wensheng under a not-so-bright oil lamp, struggling to read the papers.

Chang Feng really can't stand it. He came to the door and instructed Shi Wenyi, "Go buy a few tall candles."

Not long after, Shi Wenyi bought back the high candle.

Chang Feng lit the high candle and placed it on Ma Wensheng's bookcase.

Ma Wensheng glanced up at Chang Feng, and then looked at the flickering high candle in the firelight: "This month's Lu rice and official salary have not been paid yet. I don't have any money for you."

Chang Feng had no choice but to say, "This high candle is a public property of Jinyiwei, and it doesn't need money."

Ma Wensheng stopped talking, and read the documents until the time of his son, and then went to the bedroom to rest.

Chang Feng was equipped with an embroidered spring knife and a scorpion crossbow on his waist, and he was guarding in front of the bedroom.

Over the years, he has been accustomed to copying the mansions of corrupt officials. I'm used to seeing those *** officials who are honest and honest and rich behind their backs.

He has never seen such a clean official as Ma Wensheng.

Today, Chang Feng has seen what a real Qing official is.

From ancient times to the present, Qing officials are rare, and capable ministers are even rarer.

Those who can be clean officials and ministers are usually called "the backbone of the country" by later generations.

In the long night of guarding Ma Wensheng, Chang Feng began to think. Think about what kind of person you want to be......

In the early morning of the next day, he escorted Ma Wensheng to the Fengtian Gate.

Marven ascended to the Guangting in front of Fengtianmen to participate in the early dynasty. Chang Feng stayed where he was.

Qian Ning walked over: "Master Chang, I'm here to pick up your value. Go back and rest."

Chang Feng made up his mind to do something for Ma Wensheng.

Jin Yiwei is the eyes and ears of the emperor. More than 1,000 households can hand the emperor a secret fold.

Chang Feng did not go home, but returned to Jinyiwei. He wrote Ma Wensheng's poverty into a secret fold and handed it to the palace.

In the next morning, in the palace.

Wynne walked in with a fold: "Your Majesty, there is often a dense fold in the wind."

Emperor Hongzhi said, "Oh? I sent him to protect Ma Wensheng and investigate the assassination. Could it be that he has already caught the assassin, and what kind of earth-shattering conspiracy is behind this assassination?"

Saying that, Emperor Hongzhi opened the secret fold.

After reading the secret fold, Emperor Hongzhi was shocked! He didn't expect his military department to be so poor.

Emperor Hongzhi looked sad, and he folded it to Huaien: "Look at it."

Wynne was shocked when he saw it: "It's the old slave who was negligent! I didn't take good care of the horse department."

"No wonder he went back to Beijing. The old slave asked him to eat and drink, and he pushed back and forth."

"The old slave still thinks that he is arrogant and doesn't want to get too close to the eunuch...... Blame him, he can't afford to pay for the banquet."

Emperor Hongzhi said, "Huai'en, you immediately go to the inner carrier warehouse to get five hundred taels of silver and give it to Ma Wensheng."

"This old man, if you have money, you probably can't afford to spend it. Take two hundred taels from them, and buy him some fine furnishings and send them."

"Oh yes, go to the treasury of the inner official and pick up three hundred candles and give them to him."

Wynne arched his hand, "Yes."

Emperor Hongzhi pointed to the secret fold again: "The secret folds handed over by the Jinyi Guard in the past are all impeachment folds."

"Chang Feng's errand is well deserved. Jin Yiwei is the eyes and ears of the emperor. Not only should you report the illegal affairs of hundreds of officials, but also report to the officials

good deeds."

"You tell Chang Feng. His future is far more than a small family."
