When Wang Qi led his troops back to the western territory of Daming Liaoxi, it was already late April, and the north wind was howling when he went, and the spring flowers were blooming when he came.

From a distance, the hill three miles west of Zhenjing Fort is already lush and green.

"The last general, Zhang Ju, led thousands of people from Zhenjing Fort, ten miles out of the fortress, to greet our ambassador!"

Zhenjing Fort garrisoned Zhang Ju, led the people in the fort, and went out of the fortress for ten miles, waiting for Wang Qi's return from afar.

On both sides of the road, there were soldiers kneeling on the ground, and behind them, looking from a distance, ragged family members, children, and the elderly were all there.

"Zhang Shoubei, what are you?" Wang Qi rode on the horse, looking at the scene in front of him, and was a little stunned for a while.

"My lord rashly went out of the fortress, fought more than 100 people at night and built slaves, and entered the enemy camp at night, beheaded the head of the enemy leader, and then contributed to the union of our dynasty and Horqin Mongolia, this! It is a heroic story that I have not seen in more than 100 years of the Ming Dynasty! ”

Zhang Ju knelt on the ground and held up a bowl of wine in his hand:

"This is, the heroic spirit of my Han family! Zhang Ju was deeply affected by the merit of the adult, more than 1,000 people in Zhenjing Fort were deeply affected by the merit of the adult, and millions of people in Liaodong of the Ming Dynasty were deeply affected by the merit of the adult! ”

"Your Excellency, please accept my waiting!" More than 1,000 people in Zhenjing Fort, after Zhang Ju's speech, bowed with a bang.

Wang Qi entered the grassland for less than a month, and the Ming Dynasty was wiped out for more than 100 years.

Not only did the entire Zhenjing Fort receive its favor, but the entire northern Ming Dynasty that stretched for thousands of miles had to be born and received Wang Qi's favor.

This is not a credit given by the imperial court, but a favor recognized and received by millions of people and soldiers of the frontier guards.

"Everyone, please get up quickly, I, Wang Qi, am just practicing my duties, there is no need to be like this," Wang Qi led his subordinates to turn over and dismount, and walked forward quickly, and Ah Jing, Zhang Ju and others helped him up: "Zhang Shoubei doesn't have to be like this." ”

"My lord, these are some gifts prepared for adults by the entire Zhenjing Fort, please smile!" After Zhang Ju got up, he took a plate of gold from the deputy general behind him, and at a glance, it was estimated that there were more than three hundred taels.

In terms of the geographical location of Zhenjing Fort and the duties it undertakes, three hundred taels of gold is already the income of more than 1,000 people who have not eaten or drunk for more than a year.

"Zhang Shoubei," Wang Qi stretched out his hand to hold the plate down, but did not take it, and said with a smile: "My merit is rewarded, I have my own court arrangement, you Zhenjingbao do this, I don't dare to accept it!" ”

"My lord, this is a little bit of heart from top to bottom, you can accept it!" Zhang Ju pounced and knelt down again, raising the tray in his hand high.

In fact, Zhang Ju is still a little selfish in doing this.

Wang Qi was recalled to Beijing by the holy decree, Zhang Ju already knew that when he went to the capital, Wang Qi would inevitably be added to the official rank, and it was not a problem to be crowned a Liaodong general soldier with his meritorious deeds, even if there were civil officials in it, he would definitely not speak out in such meritorious official positions.

Now the entire government and the opposition up and down have no opinion on Wang Qi's appointment as the commander-in-chief of Liaodong, and those who have opinions will definitely be drowned directly by the people of Liaodong.

Therefore, Zhang Ju is now equivalent to giving a gift to the future Liaodong General Army.

And, most importantly, Zhang Ju was the first-hand reception of Wang Qi's departure, and now he has something to receive his return from the Ming Dynasty military attaché.

With such honors and fate, it is not a problem for Zhang Ju to be promoted to any guerrilla general in the future to be the deputy commander-in-chief!

Wang Qi looked at Zhang Ju who was kneeling on the ground, and he roughly understood a little in his heart.

Although he has not yet received the will of the imperial court to recall, he also feels that it is not bad.

"That's it," Wang Qi stretched out his hand to hold a plate of gold, and then raised it from Zhang Ju's hand: "Since Lord Zhang is so loving, I can't refuse." ”

"This is what the adults deserve, and we are waiting for it!" When Zhang Ju saw Wang Qiken accept the gold, he immediately smiled.

"Since this gold is already mine, it will be at my disposal," Wang Qi waved the tray behind him: "Erbao, give it to those family members in the fort!" ”

"Yes, sir!" Qin Erbao bowed down to take it, led a few of his relatives, passed those soldiers, and walked directly to the side of his family, one or two per family, all of which were distributed.

"Thank you, sir!"

"Thank you, brother!"

"Lord Wang descended from heaven to immortals!"

"The reincarnation of a bodhisattva, saving suffering and relieving suffering."

The family members in the fort didn't dare to take it at first, but after one or two did, most of them reached out and took it.

Suddenly, the castle was filled with the sound of gratitude and bowing.

This is kindness, fame, and the basic plate in the future!

"The heart and planning of adults are really incomparable to our ordinary people," as long as Wang Qi is willing to accept it, how he uses it, Zhang Ju has no opinion, even if he throws it into the toilet, his goal has been achieved.

The friendship is here, and you can talk about anything in the future.

As for whether Wang Qi will take back the gold from his family after he leaves?

He is not so stingy, and he will not be so short-sighted.

If Wang Qi knows that he has a bad impression, why bother?

After everyone saluted, Zhang Ju welcomed Wang Qi and others into the castle.

After receiving the news of Wang Qi's return, Zhenjingbao prepared ingredients and drinks early to entertain the mission.

After a short time, Zhang Ju took Wang Qi to the only Sanjin courtyard in the center of the fort, Zhang Ju followed behind Wang Qi's side, always half a step behind, and his tone was unusually humble.

Here, it is a reception banquet prepared for him alone, a reception banquet for two people.

"My lord, please take a seat," Zhang Ju walked around the table, helped Wang Qi set out the chair, and stretched out his hand to sit down.

"Zhang Shoubei doesn't have to be so polite, sit down," Wang Qi sat down casually, and stretched out his hand to let Zhang Ju sit down.

The food on the table is not extravagant, it is exquisite, four dishes and one soup, and a pot of hot wine.

"My lord, I just received the decree of the imperial court yesterday, and the palace wants you to return to Beijing immediately after returning from Horqin, don't delay!" Zhang Ju got up and poured wine for Wang Qi.

"Oh?" Wang Qi nodded, his expression seemed to say, you left me to drink today, isn't it a protest?

Zhang Shoubei also poured himself a full drink, and saluted: "My lord, forgive me, the will of the imperial court only went to Guangning City, and the lower officials only learned about it by sending someone to investigate." ”

Wang Qi picked up the wine glass, drank a glass, and did not make a sound, he waited for Zhang Ju's words.

"According to the lower officials," Zhang Ju leaned forward, and his tone was protective: "In the court, some people have a lot of complaints about the adult's trip!" ”

"Ye Xianggao, Han Yi, or Yang Lian?" Wang Qi placed the wine glass on the table, his face expressionless.

"Hehe......" Zhang Ju immediately filled the empty wine glass for Wang Qi and added: "It's because after Mao Wenlong surrendered in southern Liaoning, some people want to deduct this basin on the heads of adults!" ”

"Of course!" Zhang Juyan's waist has been:

"What do the civil officials of the imperial court say, that's their business, as for Liaodong, don't worry, whether it's me Zhang Ju, or Na Luo Zheng, Zu Dashou, Qi Bingzhong, Liu Qu and others, there are only two words for adults, respect!! If there is an adult in Liaodong, then the slave can be destroyed, if the adult is not there, the battle situation will take a turn for the worse, even the imperial court cannot bear this consequence! At this time, whether it is Lord Jingluo Xiong or Governor Zuo, they must know it! ”
