"This lieutenant, who among the civil and military officials of this dynasty doesn't know the favor shown to you by these two saints? What's more, you have turned the tide this time."
"Stop it, Mr. Wang. It is precisely because the two saints have given me unlimited trust that I cannot point fingers at the affairs of the direct army. If I rely on the grace of the two saints to meddle in things that have nothing to do with me, the two saints will What will you think of me?" Seeing Wang Ziteng trying to flatter him for a while, Jia Hui felt dizzy.
"But..." Wang Ziteng also understands this truth. He is also a senior official of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion. Naturally, he knows that the Shangzhi Qin Army is completely in the hands of the royal family and is independent of the court, the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion and the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion. As an army under the Ministry of War, no organization in the Da Qi court has the legal principles to command the Shangzhiqin army.
Unless the emperor ordered that the Shangzhiqin Army be placed under the command of someone, even a Taiwei who had not been granted the power to command the world's troops would never be able to get involved in the Shangzhiqin Army.
This can be regarded as one of the trump cards that Taizu Taizong gave to the Daqi royal family.
No matter how poor the combat effectiveness of this army is, it can still save the life of the emperor of the old Chen family by providing food, accommodation, and distribution to the seven armored loyalists raised by his wife.
Therefore, in the Shangzhiqin Army, ability is secondary, and loyalty is the most important.
loyalty!
Don’t you know what Wang Ziteng is?
"Besides, Mr. Wang, haven't I released the conditions for selection? If you have time to find a relationship with me, you might as well go to a martial arts gym and take classes seriously."
"Of course all this official knows is this." Wang Ziteng had a rare expression of unspeakable expression on his face.
"Just? What is just? Does Mr. Wang not even have the confidence to pass the exam?"
"That's not true. I, Wang, have been familiar with military literature since childhood and have experienced battle formations. There is no problem in passing the exam. But..." Wang Ziteng's face was full of tangles, "But... this... military merit of a lower official"
Ah, got it.
When Wang Ziteng mentioned military exploits, Jia Hui finally came to his senses.
This guy's military exploits are really dazzling.
When he first served as a general in Datong, he was pretty well behaved and made no mistakes, but he also had no achievements.
If you were an ordinary person, most of them would stay in the position of senior general step by step and get promoted gradually. However, Wang Ziteng, who rose to the rank of senior general thanks to his father's grace, didn't think so.
Since he was airborne, he had unknowingly offended all the veterans in Datong Town who were eyeing the position of general. Even his own subordinates didn't have many followers, so he urgently needed a great achievement. To prove that he is capable of taking the position of general.
Secondly, he is also the kind of person who risks his life and wants to make progress. The position of a general will naturally not allow him to realize his ambitions. This also requires a great achievement for him to be promoted.
However, this opportunity to achieve great achievements did not make him wait long. Jiang Shengqiu, the commander-in-chief of Datong at that time, finally gave himself and Datong Zhenqiu a further opportunity to encircle and annihilate the Chahar tribe.
It is still the Chahar tribe of the Great Yuan Khan Court!
Things are going very smoothly, and the direction of the war is basically in accordance with Jiang Sheng's plan. As long as the armies of the three towns successfully surround the Chahar tribe, they will only be waiting for them with artillery and arrows day and night.
But something unexpected happened.
According to the battle report that Jia Hui checked in the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, Wang Ziteng underestimated the enemy and went crazy. He wanted to imitate the ancient name and killed seven generals in and seven out, so he led thousands of his men towards the enemy to survive. Chahar, who was still blinded by desire, rushed to
The entire army was wiped out, and only a few old soldiers from the Jia and Wang families were left, leading Wang Ziteng himself to break out.
The Chahar tribe also took advantage of the complete annihilation of the Prince Teng tribe and when there was a gap in the Qi army's encirclement network, they successfully rushed out with their tribesmen and joined forces with the Grand Master Ombu Chuhu'er who came with the Tumote tribe to increase their troops. , and retreated calmly north to Xilinhot City.
Big defeat!
completely annihilated!
It directly offended the entire Datong Town, and indirectly offended Taiyuan Town and Ji Town!
Jia Hui felt that if Wang Ziteng offended her in the future, she wouldn't even have to take action herself. She could just transfer him to the three border towns and wait for Wang Ziteng to fall off his horse and die.
Although Wang Ziteng later gave him money to be transferred to the Beijing camp, and later followed Jia Hui during the Northern Expedition, he successfully annihilated a Mongol tribe with less than 5,000 people.
However, the previous defeat and annihilation of the entire army became a stain that Wang Ziteng could not wash away in his life.
Therefore, Wang Ziteng has no advantage in the competition with the generals in the border towns. It can even be said that he is at an absolute disadvantage. It can even be said that anyone whose military merit is on the passing line and whose results are almost the same or even slightly worse than him will win. The chance of being selected is even greater than that of Wang Ziteng!
No wonder I came to my place so early in the morning to have a hard time soaking.
"Tsk, speaking of the military merit king, you know the level of your military merit. Even if I submit your name to the emperor, those two saints will still have to adjust your files."
"Alas" Wang Ziteng slumped down on the chair in despair, another opportunity to reach the top was suddenly ruined by himself.
. . . . . .
The future is bleak and bleak, but life must go on.
Soon, Wang Ziteng adjusted his mentality before dinner, and drank wine with the two Shi brothers and Jia She as if to vent his anger. He successfully made Shi Ding and Jia She drink under the table, and was finally beaten again. Jia Hui drank wine until she vomited.
Seeing that the relationship between the heads of the four families was still so harmonious and that they were not unhappy because of the previous property division incident, Jia Mu was completely relieved.
During this period of time when she was getting along with the Queen and other old sisters, although she still insisted on some things, such as still being partial to her second son, she would no longer show disdain towards her eldest son, especially her eldest son Jia She.
Those old sisters of hers are right, the title is in the big house, and the honor for the rest of her life will be earned from the big house.
No matter how great his fortune is, his Baoyu is still less than ten years old now. Let’s wait until he grows up in the future!
After all, it was the Qiao Qiao Festival, and it was a rare day when my daughters were allowed to go out, so dinner was made much earlier. After I had eaten and drank enough, I looked at the clock and saw that it was not even seven o'clock.
Let’s go, let’s go out and play!
With an excited look on her face, Daiyu took Xiangyun and Yingchun's hands and ran towards the gate of the Duke's Mansion.
. . . . . .
Today, there is no curfew in Chang'an.
The vendors who usually only appeared during the day also lit up bright lanterns on their stalls at this time, lighting up most of Chang'an city from one street to another at one time!
"Ahem, Cuckoo"
"You cuckoo hammer, come down, we are all our own!"
Jia Hui patted the carriage next to him, and there was a rustling sound. Soon, two young couples wearing gorgeous but neat narrow-sleeved round-neck robes appeared in front of everyone.
"Big sister/Sister Yuan!" When Yingchun and Wang Xifeng saw the visitor, their eyes lit up, and they blurted out a long-lost call, which made Yuanchun, who was arranging his clothes, suddenly turn red.
"Second sister! Feng Yatou!" Yuanchun took the two of them into his arms.
The visitors were none other than Prince Yiyong and his wife, the Princess.
"My maid pays homage to the king, and pays homage to the princess!"
Hearing the name Yingchun, the others and Yuanchun were naturally not familiar enough to omit the etiquette, and quickly saluted the two.
"No gifts, no gifts. We are all family members. In private, please call me fourth brother. As for Yuan'er, whatever you call me before you get married is what you call me now." Chen Si waved his hand and said it doesn't matter. You can call me whatever you like. Call.
"Fourth brother~" Jia Hui put his hand on Chen Si's shoulder and winked at him.
"Hey - get away!" Chen Si was instantly disgusted and quickly pushed away Jia Hui's hand on his shoulder, jumped back and distanced himself from Jia Hui.
After Jia Hui made such a fuss, the girls' sense of restraint immediately disappeared when they saw the prince, but after all, they were not familiar with him, so they still felt a little strange.
"By the way, did you bring melons and fruits?"
"I brought it, there are two whole baskets!"
"It's done, Qujiangchi, let's go!"
. . . . . .
If the vendors on the street light up the street, then Qujiangchi can already be said to be brightly lit, as if it were daytime.
Since Da Qi did not regard Chang'an City as the capital, some of the former royal gardens in Chang'an City were opened to the common people.
However, these places were still allocated by Taizu to Jiaofangsi and Xiuyiwei. Xiuyiwei accounted for 70% of the income, while Jiaofangsi only had 30%.
These pavilions and pavilions are one of the most famous gold-selling caves in Chang'an and even the entire northwest.
In the entire northwest, the only one that can compete with the current Qujiang Pool is Pingkangfang, which has stood in Chang'an for more than 600 years.
However, it is precisely because of the historical issues left over from Pingkangfang that the audience range of Pingkangfang is far smaller than that of Qujiangchi.
Although Qujiang Pond is also like those in Pingkangfang, it is more of a theater and some high-end Qingyin troupes.
High-end cultural gatherings, tea parties, cocktail parties and other gatherings hosted by a court lady who has won the title of oiran.
Pavilions with three, four, or even five floors stand here. Candles are covered in lanterns, reflecting each other, making the entire Qujiang Pool look like a fairyland.
Today, all those traditional projects are closed.
In addition to the dissatisfaction of those die-hard regular patrons, it has received unanimous praise from high-ranking officials and dignitaries who came with Er Sheng Xi Lie. I heard that the head of the Jiaofang who made this decision has already made an internal decision to make a review in the next year of Beijing inspection. .
Today, as if Confucianism has died suddenly, there are so many girls in Qujiang Pool.
Under the protection of their own girls, the group finally arrived at the box they had reserved in advance.
The group's private room was on the third floor of the most luxurious flower building in Qujiang Pool. Although there are four floors in this flower building, it is a large banquet hall and is very empty. Today it is a social place for some people.
Jia Hui and Chen Si didn’t have any need to socialize during the Chinese Valentine’s Day, so they chose the small but more private private room on the third floor.
After all, people today have selectively forgotten the ethics, not that the ethics are really bad.
My own girl still has to take care of herself.
"Hu Ke, it's time." After entering the box, Chen Si collapsed on the mat on the floor, lying on it and breathing heavily.
"Oh yes, I feel more tired than fighting a battle. There are so many people today." Jia Hui also wiped the sweat from his face with a sweat towel and sat on the copper plate filled with ice cubes, leaning on the armrest. Beside the stove.
The two boys from the Shi family and Wang Ren from the Wang family also nodded with lingering fear. They were the ones responsible for opening the way just now, but in the end they were almost squeezed to death.
"Brother, look, Sister Feng, Feng and the others are there!" Jia Lian, who had opened the window to look out after entering, finally found Wang Xifeng, Yingchun and others by the Qujiang Pond.
Hearing this, Jia Hui and others quickly walked to the window and looked in the direction Jia Lian was pointing.
Today, the ground of Qujiang Pool belongs to the daughter's family, and the men like them are watching their sisters having fun freely in their own private rooms.
The first project is to harvest the fruits brought from home.
Those who have money use melons and fruits, and those who don’t have money go to the mountains to pick some wild fruits and hawthorns and throw them away.
According to legend, the seventh day of the seventh lunar month is the day when the Weaver Girl in heaven and the girl on earth met at the Magpie Bridge.
After the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl came into being, there was a begging ceremony.
On this night, the girls looked at the bright moon in the sky, the vast galaxy, and the colorful neon lights, and prayed to the stars that the magpies could help them build a bridge across the Milky Way to connect people on both sides of the Milky Way.
Therefore, they will also throw fruits, vegetables and other objects into the sky on this night to beg the Weaver Girl to bless them.
Pray that you can be as clever and smart as the Weaver Girl.
thump!
A big peach fell from the sky and fell into the water, causing a splash.
"Hi this little sister."
"Whose girl is this? Throwed so far"
"Hey, it must be three feet away, right?"
"More than that. Think about it, this was thrown into the sky and then fell into the water. It's like this and it's still three feet away from the shore."
"Yes, yes, and she just threw the peach so high."
Seeing the recognizable big peach in the farthest place, a group of little girls began to chatter and point at Lin Daiyu, who was wearing an emerald green long coat.
It's unimaginable, looking at Wen Wen Jingjing looking like she loves to cry, how can she be so strong?
If she were to punch him, would it be okay?
What a strange girl!
There was no need to throw away the melons and fruits, and there was no longer any status gap. The wealthy lady and the city girl instantly became close friends who talked about everything in front of the gossip. In one moment, millions of ducks worked together and started chattering. The discussion started, and the noise was so loud that even everyone in the private room on the third floor was knocked to the ground by the sound and quickly closed the windows.
"I remembered who he was!"
Suddenly, there was an exclamation from the crowd. In an instant, everyone fell silent, looking directly at the person just now, as if they wanted to eat her alive.
"That is the eldest daughter of Duke Lin Hai, the censor of Youqian City, and the cousin of Taiwei Jia!"
"What? Captain Jia's cousin? No wonder."
"Since she is Lieutenant Jia's cousin, it is normal. After all, she is a tiger in the general family."
"What are you talking about? Isn't the Lin family a civil servant?" A girl in commoner clothes was a little confused. She asked, "You are the censor of the capital. Isn't this a civil servant?"
"Don't you understand? In fact, the Lin family was a marquis during the previous dynasty, and Mr. Lin's father did not have the title. In other words, Mr. Lin also experienced the life of a general." A girl wearing a necklace He shook his fan, covered his mouth and explained to the commoner girl with a chuckle.
"Yes, yes, and besides, Mr. Lin's wife is the eldest daughter of the Duke of Rongguo. Both husband and wife are children of generals, so naturally, the girl from the Lin family is the daughter of a general."
I forgot to write it down yesterday, thank you book friend Fusheng Yueming for the tip!
