The middle-aged man was wearing a dark blue gown with gold thread rings embroidered on the cuffs. He had thin lips and a rather bitter look.
Judging from the redness of his cheeks at the moment, he obviously drank a lot of wine.
The middle-aged man walked up to Zheng Yu with three unsteady steps and asked with a slightly curled tongue:
"General Zheng, why are you making such a fuss?"
When Zheng Yu saw the middle-aged man, he immediately wiped away his previous angry look, clasped his hands and said respectfully:
"The steward of the Ming Dynasty told me that Xia Hougong, the commander of the White Tiger Camp who is stationed on the top of the mountain here, came to my camp and made nonsense, threatening to behead all of us and others."
The Ming Butler whom Zheng Yu refers to, whose real name is Ming Hong, is the internal affairs manager of Prince Feng's Mansion.
It is worth mentioning that the Ming steward of Prince Feng’s Mansion is different from the stewards Wu and Tao of Prince Feng’s Mansion, because since the establishment of Prince Feng’s Mansion, there has been only one steward responsible for all matters in the palace. This is not to say that the scale of Prince Feng’s Mansion is smaller than that of The reason why Prince Jin's palace is so small is mainly because in the heart of Prince Feng Xue Shitang, the only person around him who can be completely trusted and can arrange the internal affairs of the palace is Ming Hong.
From this, Minghong became the "only one" in Prince Feng's palace.
What follows is that Ming Hong's potential status is even higher than that of second- and second-grade generals like Zheng Yu.
Although Minghong never left his name in the official register of the Great Yan Dynasty, among all the soldiers and servants under King Feng, who would not be polite and respectful when meeting Minghong?
After listening to Zheng Yu's complaint, Ming Hong frowned slightly and narrowed his eyes to look at the strong man holding a knife directly in front of him.
After shaking his head to finally get rid of the erratic double image, Ming Hongcai stared at Xia Hougong and asked:
"Are you Xia Hougong?"
Xia Hougong has been stationed in the Chifeng Mountains with Zhu Mo for many years. Even if he has never met Ming Hong before, he has already known about him through word of mouth.
Greedy for money, lustful, evil-minded, insidious and cunning, using power to bully others...
All these highly derogatory adjectives have been used by some people to describe Minghong in private.
If there was no peace in the world and Minghong was the popular man in front of King Feng, given the jealous behavior of the 800,000-strong Shen family army, Xiahou Gong would have chosen a free moment to find Minghong with his sword and beheaded him with a wave of his hand. It’s a dog’s head!
In other words.
Just talking about the fact that the reputation is not correct gives Xiahou Gong enough reasons not to want to see Minghong.
So when faced with Minghong's question, Xia Hougong just nodded silently and answered his question.
"Bold! Butler Ming asked you a question, why didn't you answer!"
With Minghong's support, the deputy general Cao Jing immediately seemed to have a backbone and started barking at Xia Hougong at random.
Xia Hougong looked at Cao Jing coldly and asked instead of answering.
"I am a second-grade general, and he is a housekeeper with no official position. So what if I don't answer?"
"besides……"
"I have taught you a lesson before. The military values the respect of officials, especially the old and the young, more than the common people. If you yell at me again, I will punish you for the following crimes. ."
Xia Hougong's method of dealing with Cao Jing was very simple and crude. It doesn't matter what your dog's name is. I'll just say one thing back to you - I'm a senior official than you. If you beep again, I'll do it to you!
Cao Jing was so angry that he couldn't vent his anger, so he had to go home and seek help from his father like a son who was bullied outside.
Feeling Cao Jing's gaze, Zheng Yu thought about it and immediately said in the ear of Ming Hong, who looked ugly:
"Butler Ming, who doesn't know that you are a popular person in front of the prince? Not to mention a mere second-grade general, he is the first-grade general of our Xue family army. Don't you still have to clasp your fists and salute when he sees you?"
"Anyway, the general feels that the people from the Shen family are too arrogant, especially since they are on our territory. If you are interested in visiting Jinzhou one day, with their arrogance, Then I’m not allowed to poop or pee on your head?”
"Of course, when it comes to talking about it, you and I are considered servants working for Prince Feng, but as the old saying goes, whether he beats a dog depends on the owner."
"If today we fall into the hands of the Shen family army and word spreads, wouldn't Prince Feng be a head lower than Prince Jin in the hearts of the people of Dayan?"
"When the prince learns that this incident originated from today, you and I will become the eternal sinners of the entire Fengzhou!"
When Zheng Yu was fanning the flames in Minghong's ears, in order to make way for Minghong, where the crowd was divided into two halves, there was a camp tent curtain. Someone secretly opened a crack from the inside, and immediately two people poked out. Half a face.
Xiahou Gong practiced martial arts, and his level of cultivation was not low.
For those who practice martial arts, after tempering their bodies with true energy, their six senses and senses are often different from those of ordinary people.
Therefore, Xia Hougong, who had excellent eyesight, saw half of the faces with their probes retracted at a glance.
They are clearly two beautiful girls wearing heavy makeup!
As mentioned before, the world that Shen Liang lives in in this life has many similarities with the ancient Daxia Dynasty in his previous life in terms of cultural background, laws and regulations, currency, etc.
One of them is that unless there are special circumstances, military personnel of various countries are not allowed to be accompanied by their female relatives.
The tent where the two women were hiding at this time was the tent where Minghong was just now.
Or even if the owner of the camp is not Ming Hong, but Zheng Yu and other Xue family army officers, they should not be stationed in the camp with their female relatives.
In this way, Xia Hougong's three questions seem to be turning into four questions.
"Well, I know what's going on."
After listening to Zheng Yu's fussy reasoning, Ming Hong took two steps forward, took over the leadership from Zheng Yu, and formally started a verbal confrontation with Xia Hougong on behalf of the Xue Jiajun here.
"General Xiahou, why do you want to behead all the Xue family troops here?"
Xiahou Gong spoke briefly and concisely.
"Today is neither a holiday nor a post-war frivolity. Having such a big banquet and getting the entire battalion drunk is a serious violation of military laws and regulations. According to the laws of Dayan, his crime should be punished. However, my general sees that your army has not caused serious consequences. If there are consequences, as long as the officers in the camp accept the punishment of the rod, and then the person who ordered the banquet is beheaded, it will be over."
Minghong, who was angry and sober, chuckled softly.
"General Xiahou, does he know how many soldiers are in the camp here?"
Xia Hougong didn't even look at the people behind Ming Hong.
"Anyone who smells of alcohol will be punished."
Minghong clenched his fists when he heard this. After so many years with Prince Feng, this was the first time he encountered a dog who dared not give him face like this.
"Okay, then I will tell you clearly that the person who ordered the banquet today is none other than this butler. If you dare, come and chop off my head! I will no longer stop you, whether it is a rod punishment or not, and I will be powerless to stop you! "
As soon as these words came out, Zheng Yu did not forget to sneer and help:
"Butler Ming is Lord Feng's right-hand man. If you kill him, you may not be dead for a long time. I hope General Xiahou will think twice!"
