Ding Yizhen has been in the Blue Dragon Club for a long time, and at this moment, the East Window incident happened, and he knew that he was going to die. But listening to Xiao Yan's meaning at this moment, she still has vitality, and she doesn't dare to hide anything at the moment.

Ding Yizhen said tremblingly: "There is a person who asks me to hide my superiority." ”

Zhang Yongjie asked, "Who and when?"

Na Ding Yizhen said: "It's the person next to Mr. Qian in the evening." ”

Zhang Yongjie shouted: "There are more people around me in the evening, who is it?"

Ding Yizhen said: "It was the time when Mr. Qian received the hydrangea, and there was only one person by Mr. Qian's side that time." ”

Zhang Yongjie frowned and said, "You mean He Yuankui?"

Ding Yizhen nodded and said: "It's this person, this person said that Master Qian wanted to hide the upper position and others to prevent being assassinated by that Zhao Qianli." ”

Zhang Yongjie really had this meaning, and said immediately: "It's a little interesting, you go on." ”

Ding Yizhen said: "He Yuankui said that Mr. Qian is busy with military affairs, and we will do these little things, and he also said that Mr. Qian will conduct a drill later, if even Mr. Qian himself can't find the upper position, it means that we are doing a good job." ”

Zhang Yongjie sneered and said, "You can speak, you keep talking." ”

Ding Yizhen continued: "Then He Yuankui said that it only takes one day for someone to come and pick up the position in person and go to a very safe place. So I sent three girls and a few servants out of the city from the south, wanting to confuse Zhao Qianli. ”

Although Ding Yizhen turned a corner to explain the problem, Zhang Yongjie, Xiao Yan, Li Ling and others were not stupid, and they all understood Ding Yizhen's words.

The implication is that Zhao Qianli has not yet arrived in Hangzhou at the moment, but it only takes one day for Zhao Qianli to rush to Hangzhou to pick up people.

And sending a few servants and three girls out of the city from the south was naturally to confuse Zhang Yongjie.

Ding Yizhen couldn't tell the ugly things he did in front of Xiao Yan at the moment, so he told the story around the corner.

(Note: I actually regret this scene, I should write that Ding Yizhen thinks that he has not betrayed his position, and he uses this remark as a motive or shield for his actions.) But this book is serialized, and the previous chapter was released yesterday, and it's too late to change it now. In the future, there will be an opportunity to revise this plot in the future and write this plot as 'intrigued'. ）

Zhang Yongjie fell into deep thought, this He Yuankui was obviously sent to the governor's yamen by himself, how did he know that he entered the archway to see Xiao Yan? What does he have to do with Zhao Qianli? Why did he help Zhao Qianli to harm Xiao Yan?

Zhang Yongjie remembered that He Yuankui had made these moves, he might not really go to the governor's yamen to report, maybe he had run away now. But Zhang Yongjie still tried to summon a soldier of the Sharp Knife Army to look for He Yuankui inside the governor's yamen.

The governor of the yamen had an errand servant who arranged two rooms for Zhang Yongjie, Xiao Yan and Li Ling, and the three of them felt tired and rested for a while.

The next day, Hu Butang dealt with military affairs in the morning, and in the afternoon, remembering Zhang Yongjie's strange behavior yesterday, he summoned Zhang Yongjie to the lobby for questioning.

Zhang Yongjie said to Xiao Yan: "Miss Xiao, the lord of the ministry summoned me, and you wait here." No matter how powerful Zhao Qianli is, he will never dare to make trouble in the governor's yamen. ”

Xiao Yan said: "Let's go to see Hu Butang together, and by the way, explain last night's events a little more clearly." ”

Zhang Yongjie felt a little embarrassed, and Li Ling followed: "Mr. Zhang Qian doesn't have to be embarrassed, it's not the first time we've met with the minister." ”

Zhang Yongjie remembered that Lord Mintang had handed over the 'Golden Dragon Key' to Li Ling and the others, and it seemed that they had already known each other, so they had no objections.

Li Ling told Hu Butang the ins and outs of last night's incident, and Hu Butang didn't say much, but said: "The affairs of the rivers and lakes, the rivers and lakes." It's just that at the moment, the Japanese are rampant, and the headquarters hopes that all sects and factions in the world can think about the overall situation, less infighting, and if they have extra energy, it is better to focus on the anti-Japanese war situation. ”

Li Ling nodded and said: "This is natural, our side really thinks like this, so we tolerate that Zhao Qianli in many ways." ”

Zhang Yongjie interjected at this time: "Lord Ministry, I think that this matter of the rivers and lakes cannot be done in the rivers and lakes. ”

Hu Butang glanced at Zhang Yongjie, smiled, and said, "What do you think?"

Zhang Yongjie said with a straight face: "Under this ordinary, it is not the king's land." This river and lake is not under our control, is it?"

Zhang Yongjie continued: "There are many disputes on the rivers and lakes, and they will flow like rivers of blood at every turn, destroying the laws of the imperial court, and they must be controlled. ”

Hu Butang smiled slightly and said, "I remember that you are also from the rivers and lakes, how can you have such an idea?"

Zhang Yongjie said: "I have been up and down in the rivers and lakes for a few years, but I will always remember that I am a person from the Ming Dynasty." What are the rivers and lakes? Can the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance fight against the Holy Lord? It is really against them. ”

Zhang Yongjie paused, and continued: "In the eyes of humble duties, this martial arts alliance leader is just a child's game, what kind of thing are they? ”

Zhang Yongjie continued: "Fang Cai, what did the Lord of the Ministry say that he hoped that all sects and factions in the world could think about the overall situation, I don't think it's right. ”

Hu Butang said: "Shouldn't we think about the overall situation?"

Zhang Yongjie said: "I'm not saying that this is wrong, but it shouldn't be in a hopeful tone." Hope, means to consult with others. And the imperial court should order those people in the rivers and lakes to cooperate with the overall situation of the anti-Japanese war, there is no room for negotiation. ”

Zhang Yongjie paused, glanced at Xiao Yan and Li Ling, and said: "No individual or organization can override the imperial court or harm the interests of the country. ”

Hu Butang said at this time: "What you said makes sense, but the major sects in the rivers and lakes have a long history, and the history of some sects is even older than my Ming Dynasty. It is not an overnight task to accomplish this, and we must not act recklessly. ”

Zhang Yongjie looked at Xiao Yan and wanted to say something, but finally held back and didn't say it.

Hu Butang said: "At this moment, there is no need to say these things anymore, two things. The first thing is that this Miss Xiao and Miss Li can't enter the Sharp Knife Army barracks, and this rule can't be broken. Second, I heard your words, this He Yuankui has a bit of a relationship with you. But this He Yuankui has a major relationship with the headquarters, so this person can't die for the time being. ”

The meaning of not being able to die for the time being, of course Zhang Yongjie knows. This means that you can trouble him, but you must not kill this person.

After all the arrangements were completed, the three of them left Hu Butang and wandered around the governor's yamen. Xiao Yan and Li Ling didn't say a word, Zhang Yongjie looked at the expressions of the two of them, and knew that they were a little worried about their safety.

Zhang Yongjie whispered: "Miss Xiao, don't worry, I am by your side, and I will never allow that Zhao Qianli to be presumptuous." ”

Xiao Yan didn't speak, Zhang Yongjie followed: "Our Sharp Knife Army has won several big battles in Fujian, and these are all commanded by Li Geng. So whether I go to Fujian or not has nothing to do with the overall situation. Let's go to Zhao Qianli now and settle the ledger with him. ”

Zhang Yongjie meant that the marching and combat issues of the Sharp Knife Army were all presided over by Li Geng, so he could not go back for the time being, but stay by Xiao Yan's side to protect her safety.

Li Ling sneered: "Zhang Qian is not ready to return to the barracks?"

Zhang Yongjie said: "If I don't deal with Zhao Qianli's affairs, I will have to not return to the barracks for the time being." ”

Li Ling said leisurely: "Then is your behavior considered lawlessness and not taking the court in your eyes?"

Li Ling said again: "I remember what some people said just now, no individual or organization can be above the imperial court, and in the blink of an eye, this person will first despise the imperial court and military law, aren't you contradicting yourself." ”

Zhang Yongjie glanced at Li Ling and did not argue with her. Time flowed like water, Zhang Yongjie and others spent two days in this governor's yamen, and the ministers said that they would hold a high-level military meeting on the front line, but due to some special circumstances, it was postponed for a few days.

On this day, several soldiers escorted Ma Lingyuan, the prefect of Hangzhou, to the governor's yamen. Zhang Yongjie remembered that Ma Lingyuan was also a very capable official, and he didn't know what he had done at the moment, so he was brought to the ministry in front of the lord.

Zhang Yongjie was quite interested, and immediately came to the door of the ministry, ready to listen secretly.

There was a Yang Gonggong who blocked a large business for the imperial court, and set up a silk business with the West to form a silk business of 500,000 horses to ease the imperial court's finances. Therefore, the imperial court implemented the national policy of 'changing rice to mulberry' in Zhejiang.

But the people were reluctant to let the people not plant rice and plant mulberry trees instead, and there were still some hateful landlords who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to annex the land, so things became more and more complicated.

In order to carry out the national policy of 'changing rice to mulberry', Ma Lingyuan actually took action to blow up the embankment, divert floods and flood the fertile fields, causing disasters to the people in the following counties.

Zhang Yongjie listened to it and felt that this Ma Ling was far too hateful, and he actually did this kind of thing. But I heard a lot of people arguing inside, and things were quite complicated. This national policy of 'changing rice to mulberry' could not be implemented, and the silk business with the West would be ruined, and the imperial court's finances would be further difficult.

This involves a lot of things, Zhang Yongjie listened to a few words and felt that his head was in a mess. Thinking of Hu Butang as the governor of Zhejiang and the governor of Zhejiang, he was not only in charge of the military and responsible for the great cause of fighting against the Japanese, but also supervised civil affairs and handled the government affairs of a province.

The burden on Hu Butang's body is really too heavy, and even he, a young and strong young man, sounds like a headache, let alone deal with it.

Zhang Yongjie was a little sympathetic to Lord Hu Butang at the moment, and secretly made up his mind that he would make less trouble for Lord Butang in the future.

Ma Lingyuan was executed, and on the day of the execution, Zhang Yongjie went to see it. Na Ma Ling was far from shouting or shouting, he was so young, but he did something wrong, so he paid the price for his evil deeds.

After another three days, the high-level military conference was finally held, at which Zhang Yongjie finally met the famous General Qi, General Yu and others. This group of generals is the mainstay of my Ming Dynasty's fight against the Japanese invaders.

Zhang Yongjie attended the meeting as an observer, and was only an observer, and was not qualified to speak.

The meeting decided to use Lord Hu Butang as a bait to lure the Japanese to come and attack and fight a big battle, and the battlefield was preset on the outskirts of Nanjing.

After the meeting, Hu Butang named Zhang Yongjie to stay alone, Zhang Yongjie thought that the master of the ministry wanted to leave him some secret mission, and he was still a little happy in his heart.

But the lord of the ministry took out an urgent letter from Fujian and handed it to Zhang Yongjie for review, and the content of the letter surprised Zhang Yongjie.

On the battlefield of Fujian, Li Geng fought a big defeat, losing more than 20,000 soldiers, and now there are only more than 4,000 people left in the sharp knife army, gathered in Longtai City, and could not hold out. Zhang Yongjie couldn't believe it.

Last month, Erkou Xu Hai led 50,000 troops to Fujian to attack the Sharp Knife Army. And he personally led 800 men and horses to drive Erkou Xu Hai from Fujian to Zhejiang. It stands to reason that although there are 40,000 people in the Wuming direction, the dragons are leaderless and scattered.

And according to the information provided by the lord of the ministry before, the sharp knife army has already recruited 30,000 people, and Li Geng has rich theoretical skills in the art of war.

Zhang Yongjie even questioned the authenticity of this letterhead for a while, but this is a letterhead written by Cao Gonggong himself, and no one dares to pass on false news in a military battle.

Hu Butang said: "Water is impermanent, and soldiers are impermanent. No one is an invincible god of war, and it is not terrible to lose a battle, but the reasons must be figured out, and someone must be held accountable. ”

Zhang Yongjie said: "This matter is the responsibility of the lowly duty, the lowly pursuit of Xu Hai to Zhejiang, should have returned to Fujian immediately, but he came to Hangzhou, broke away from the headquarters of the Sharp Knife Army, and asked the lord of the ministry to surrender." ”

Hu Butang said: "Of course, it is to reduce the guilt, but the headquarters allows you to rush to Fujian immediately and make meritorious contributions." ”

Zhang Yongjie said goodbye to Hu Butang, immediately went out, gathered the soldiers of the Sharp Knife Army, and prepared to return to Fujian, and saw Xiao Yan and Li Ling in a blink of an eye.

Zhang Yongjie was embarrassed, walked up to Xiao Yan, and said embarrassedly: "Miss Xiao, Fujian has lost the battle, and I am leaving again." ”

The meaning of leaving again means that Xiao Yan cannot be protected. Zhang Yongjie is very heartbroken at this point, this Xiao girl treats herself really well, I can't say it, but I have hardly done anything for her.

Zhang Yongjie said again: "Miss Xiao, you know the Lord of the Ministry, you might as well stay around the Lord of the Ministry, so that Zhao Qianli will not dare to be presumptuous." ”

Thinking that even if Zhao Qianli was rampant, he would not dare to make trouble around the minister, he would never have such courage, so Zhang Yongjie proposed.

Xiao Yan said with a smile: "Brother Zhang, don't worry about us, you go to Fujian well, the army is dangerous, you must be careful in everything." ”

Someone from the Sharp Knife Army went to the south gate of Hangzhou before, bought off the guards, found migrant workers, pried open hundreds of bricks, and dug out the golden moon gun, which had been handed back to Zhang Yongjie at this moment.

Zhang Yongjie remembered that there were still many things that had not been solved here, especially Xiao Yan's safety concern. But at this moment, there were unexpected changes in Fujian, and I couldn't care so much about it at the moment, so I had to return immediately.
