Chapter 154: The Heavenly Hung Army
Jiang Ning looked at the pitiful appearance of the jade man, his heart was inexplicably painful, and he frowned: "Is there something gossiping in the house?" ”
Zheng Fangrui's pear blossoms with rain roads;
"No, it's the slave family who feels uncomfortable.
said that he was ordered by the emperor to treat his wife, but his wife was very healthy at all.
The slave family still stays in the house with a dead face, and the food and clothing are all the master's, and they spend more.
But on weekdays, the old man doesn't look at the slave family much, and only when he asks the slave family to help, does he talk more.
If you want the slave family to see it, it's better to move out as soon as possible, so as to save the suspicion of the master. ”
"Don't!"
Jiang Ning turned his face blank, and then showed a wry smile:
"Heaven and earth conscience, I never thought that you would always be a part of this family.
You also said that your treatment on weekdays is very good, no worse than Yun'er and Luoxian.
What's more, if I really treat you as an outsider, I will always acquiesce to you being called master? ”
Zheng Fangrui burst into tears, wiped her tears, pursed her lips and said coquettishly: "But, the slave family is nameless and undivided." ”
When it came to this, Jiang Ning didn't know how to answer.
Zheng Fangrui stomped on her jade feet, turned her face and said angrily: "Forget it, the slave family won't talk about this, so as not to embarrass the old man and hate the slave family." ”
"Who said that, I definitely don't have this thought, and I won't hate Rui'er, and I won't do it for the rest of my life."
Jiang Ning swore an oath.
Zheng Fangrui's heart suddenly became sweet, and she snorted lightly: "Then count you, count you as if you can speak, the slave family is not uncomfortable." ”
"Don't feel uncomfortable, don't cry, look at you, how can you look like a lady.
Asked Wen Qing and they watched the joke. ”
Jiang Ning gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes for her.
Zheng Fangrui's cheeks were dyed with two touches of red, and she was suddenly startled, and quickly looked around.
I saw Bai Wenqing and the others looking at their noses and mouths, and counting ants with their heads down.
"It's all to blame, master!"
Zheng Fangrui only felt that she had no face to see people, and stepped on lotus feet and walked down the mountain quickly.
Jiang Ning shook his head and smiled: "Slow down, wait for the master." ”
Wu'an Hou Mansion.
Zheng Fangrui took a look at Meng Wanning, although she didn't find anything wrong, she still used silver needles to acupuncture.
It's not a cure, it's good to treat it as an ordinary conditioner.
Just as she was gently twisting the needle, Meng Wanning pursed her pink lips, and suddenly said:
"Sister Fangrui, do you like my cousin because he saved you?"
These days of getting along, she already knew Zheng Fangrui's identity and origin.
It is also easy to see the friendship of this goddess doctor for Jiang Ning.
Zheng Fangrui didn't expect Meng Wanning to suddenly ask like that, so she didn't tremble and pierced the silver needle into it.
A pretty face quickly blushed, and even the snow-white swan's neck was dyed a faint pink.
It's gorgeous.
"You, why would you suddenly ask that?"
Zheng Fangrui snorted embarrassedly.
"Oh, it's just curiosity. Anyway, there is no one else here, so you should be regarded as a private word in the boudoir. ”
"Well, how do you say that?"
Zheng Fangrui pondered for a while, lightly opened her lips, and said slowly:
"I was rescued by my master at the beginning, and I tried my best to be placed in the house, and I am really grateful.
But I don't like him that much, I just think maybe it's good to be a servant here for the rest of my life.
It wasn't until later that I went with him to Gangnam ......"
With Zheng Fangrui's narration, she herself slowly immersed herself, as if she had returned to that time.
Not to mention that Meng Wanning was fascinated by what she heard.
"You know, the master is not like an ordinary reader, or he is not like a reader a lot of the time.
The gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, but he does not know how many times he has returned to danger.
Many officials are not diligent in their work, and they do not distinguish between grains and grains. He is very keen to grow new crops.
Sometimes it's empty, and he often takes us to the backyard to plant it himself.
He was not as pedantic and stubborn as other scholars, but was very open-minded.
When I get along with him, I am very happy and relaxed.
You don't have to hold on to the beautiful shelves of everyone before, and you won't feel that you are the daughter of a lowly criminal official.
According to the old man's words, by the way, we are equal.
You may not think that when I am sad, he will coax me, even at the expense of bowing his head and smiling.
But he's obviously such a big official.
Ordinary people have long been arrogant when they reach his status, and they are upright, how can they take care of a little woman like us. ”
A happy and sweet smile slowly appeared on Zheng Fangrui's face.
Meng Wanning couldn't help but think of another person.
Xiao Huang, that is, Zhu Houzhao, the son of heaven of the Ming Dynasty.
He and Jiang Ning are really similar.
Perhaps that's why they were able to form such a royal friendship.
Inexplicably, the corners of Meng Wanning's mouth curled slightly, revealing a shallow smile.
Two days later.
The border troops of Datong, Xuanfu and Liaodong arrived in Beijing.
Each is led by a chief officer.
After the three of them temporarily stationed the army, they were received by Jiang Ning.
"General Xu Tai?"
Jiang Ning looked at the familiar tall and straight figure in front of him, and couldn't help but be stunned.
"The last general has seen the general!"
The chief military officer of Datong is none other than Xu Tai, the champion of martial arts, and now he is also an excellent general among the ranks of the Ming Dynasty.
And the rest of the Liaodong and Xuanfu chief military officers are also heroic and powerful young generals.
All in their thirties.
They are in such a high position at this age, which is the best evidence of the vitality of the Ming border army.
Jiang Ning met with the three of them, and after encouraging them, he immediately took them to the leopard room to meet Zhu Houzhao.
"Good, good! He is worthy of being the leader of my Ming border army. ”
Zhu Houzhao looked at Xu Tai and the three of them very excitedly, and stroked his palms and praised:
"Fighting with the Tartars for many years, defending the family and defending the country, is more imposing than the Beijing army!
The Beijing army is mighty, but it has no decent murderous aura, and it is afraid that people will be ashamed to laugh on the battlefield. ”
Now Zhu Houzhao can be regarded as a person who has personally experienced the war, and he is qualified to say this.
Jiang Ning smiled:
"Your Majesty, as soon as the national policy of the Beijing army and the border army taking turns to adjust the defense and garrison is released, sooner or later my Ming Dynasty will be able to have a million murderous elite troops.
In the meantime, under the leadership of His Majesty, he will be able to sweep the desert, recover Liaodong, and achieve the great achievements of Taizu Taizong! ”
"Haha, Jiang Qing is really very satisfied."
Zhu Houzhao smiled even more, and continued: "The soldiers of the border army of the three towns will be handed over to you for training. ”
"Command!
Please also give your majesty the name of the army! ”
Zhu Houzhao thought for a while and said: "Let's call it the 'Tianxiong Army', I hope to become the most elite pillar of my Ming Dynasty!" ”
"The minister will live up to His Majesty's trust!"
Jiang Ning said solemnly.
At this time, Xu Tai and the three of them suddenly stepped forward and saluted and hugged their fists:
"Your Majesty, when the Tatars entered the Kou, you were not afraid of danger, you came to Baishan Mountain in person, strategized, commanded my Ming soldiers to defeat the little prince, and annihilated tens of thousands of enemies, you can really be described as a famous general in the world!
It is with the brazenness of the ministers to ask His Majesty to serve as the general of the Tianxiong Army, command the departments of the three towns, and teach the reckless generals such as the ministers with the immortal art of war, so that the ministers can improve their ability to command the army and better serve Your Majesty and the court! ”
Seeing this scene, Jiang Ning smiled slightly.
That's what he whispered.
Because only in this way can this newly formed Tianxiong Army completely pull on the last insurance and stand tall in the court.
The general is the Son of Heaven and the emperor, just ask which one dares to impeach and which one dares to criticize!
Zhu Houzhao was quite moved when he heard it, but he subconsciously looked at Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning smiled and said:
"Your Majesty, you have been martial since you were a child, and you are well versed in the way of using soldiers. And General Xu Tai is a veteran general in the border army, who has been in battle for a long time and has rich experience.
At that time, the Tianxiong Army was established, with His Majesty's amazing strategy of war, and the generals' hard will on the battlefield, they will be able to train an invincible and invincible tiger and wolf army! ”
"Good!"
Zhu Houzhao was enthusiastically boiled by the words, as if he had seen the magnificent picture of personally commanding the Tianxiong Army on the battlefield in the coming days.
"I became the general of the Tianxiong Army."
Zhu Houzhao touched his chin with interest, and his eyes lit up and said:
"Well, I am a self-proclaimed mighty general. The name also needs to be changed, let's call it Zhu Shou.
When I make contributions on the battlefield in the future, I will also enter the town of Jue and the country, and I will be majestic! ”
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Jiang Ning twitched the corner of his mouth, but still praised against his will.
This is indeed something that Zhu Houzhao can do.
In fact, he did the same throughout history.
It's just that it's been many years ahead of time.
After personally encouraging Xu Tai and the three of them a few words, Zhu Houzhao sent them to retreat, leaving Jiang Ning alone to speak.
"Your Majesty, the minister is having something important to report, which is related to my Ming dynasty's national fortunes."
Jiang Ning took a few steps forward and whispered to Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao frowned, and hurriedly waved away a few little eunuchs standing on the side.
"Jiang Shiyu, what is it that can threaten my Ming national fortune?"
"Your Majesty is the son of the great tomorrow, and the safety of Your Majesty is related to the fortune of our dynasty.
Chen Dou dared to guess that Xi Rong and Zhou were the demons of the White Lotus Sect......"
