In the side room in the inner courtyard of the Dongchang Yamen, the candlelight is dim. Wu Zhong is half leaning on the bedside and chatting with Jiang Fa next to him. In his early years, he was known as the God of Killer in the world, but because of his low profile, few people know about him, and Jiang Fa is so good. Traveling around the world, I knew a little bit about his chivalry, and always believed that he was the famous swordsman in the world. Although Wuzhong did not admit or deny it, it did not affect the two of them becoming good friends.
Yes, Wuzhong is brave and has superb martial arts skills, but his personality is surly and a bit awkward. The only person who can have a serious conversation is Jiang Fa, and Jiang Fa has always regarded him as an idol and respected him. This time Wuzhong seriously injured him. Zi also came to take care of her. After all, it was not convenient for a girl like Song Luoyu to be around her all the time.
As they were talking, there was a commotion outside, and soon Tu Yuan, Jia Waixiong and other leaders of the Fourth Battalion of Dongchang and their attendants came in, naturally coming to visit Wuzhong.
"Although we didn't make much effort in this battle, the factory supervisor still gave us a silver reward and said that if we are successful in life, we must have all the fun and let us go out and have fun. Old Wu can't go because you look like this." After some pleasantries, Tu Yuan said with a smile.
"What do you mean, you were given a reward for not doing anything? I'm afraid you are stupid. This reward was for the last time I went out of the city to attack the Tatar camp. The factory supervisor said that the emperor paid one hundred thousand taels out of his own pocket, but it has not been divided yet. The factory "The governor has paid this in advance, so let's hurry up and have fun. In a few days, we may go out of the city to kill the Tatars." Jia Waixiong rolled his eyes at him, then looked at Tang Potian and said, "Master Tang, don't you think so?"
Tang Potian chuckled: "Low-key, low-key, look at Tu Yuan's bitchy mouth, just come and see Lao Wu. Isn't it irritating others by proposing to go out for fun? It's not authentic!"
Everyone laughed.
Wu Zhong sighed and rolled his eyes: "Looking for fun, there is nothing to find in the capital at this time. It's just a few sips in a tavern. I'm lying in bed and drinking whatever I want. I can drink as much as I want." No matter how much you drink, I won’t envy you, huh.”
"Envy" Jia Waixiong and several others looked at each other and laughed: "I always envy you when you lie still and have to be helped to pee." Everyone laughed again, Wuzhong cursed, and Li Muchian stepped forward to calm him down: "Okay, let's talk about it. Come on, don't make fun of Lao Wu for peeing." Everyone laughed again.
Wuzhong was too lazy to argue with them and yelled, "Go away and don't disturb my sleep." He then asked Jiang Fa: "Master Jiang, are you going to drink with them too?"
Jiang Fa shook his head: "The factory governor cannot be without people. I will stay with Master Chen (Chen Wangting), so I will not go with them." Wu Zhong nodded: "What's there to do when it's raining outside? Just stay here and I'll treat you to a nice drink. The royal wine in the palace is much better than the horse piss outside."
"Old Wu, you are still young." Tang Potian blinked: "Are we really just going out for a drink? Do you really think there is no fun in the city now? To tell you the truth, the factory supervisor has made a big deal today. Let’s go to Dashilar to play. It’s such a big world. I don’t have any wine or girls that I want…”
Ah, girl? Wuzhong couldn't sit still anymore, pointed at Jia Waixiong and said, "Help me up, I'm okay!"
When everyone burst into laughter, they saw Song Luoyu coming in with a basin of water, looking at Wuzhong with a puzzled look on his face and asking: "What are you okay with?"
"I,, I can't do it anymore." Wuzhong collapsed on the bed again, and everyone burst out laughing.
Wang Jiayan likes wine but he is not a big drinker. Moreover, he was invited to the Dongchang Yamen to drink with Chang Yu, but he really drank the good wine in Dongchang. In fact, it was just to show his attitude.
Although he served in the Ministry of War, he was actually a civil servant to the Governor of Beijing Camp. Civil servants and eunuchs had always been natural enemies, not to mention that they were incompatible with someone like Dongchang, who was a thorn in his side.
However, the actions of Chang Yu, the great eunuch of Dongchang, were very different from those of the powerful eunuchs of the past dynasties. He had almost no selfish desires. He did not do anything to cultivate party members to harm the loyal and good, harming the country and the people. Instead, he led troops to suppress bandits and kill the enemy with great achievements. He is good at fighting but also extremely low-key. He never directly confronts the courtiers. Even if you think he is bad and think that he is behind something, you have no evidence.
There are many types of courtiers, some are just waiting to die, and some are loyal to the emperor and will fight to the death for the country. Wang Jiayan is this kind. Although he doesn't like eunuchs, Chang Yu's personality charm makes him admire him endlessly.
After fighting side by side for several days, he was finally convinced. Coming to dinner as invited was actually a kind of recognition and acceptance. He was the first big shot in the court to have honest contact with the eunuch of Dongchang.
After a few side dishes and a few pots of good wine, Wu Mengming accompanied the guests, and the three of them drank together. After half an hour, Wang Jiayan was too drunk and left. Chang Yu walked to the Yamen Gate and returned to the inner hall to close the door and chat with Wu Mengming secretly.
"We got one hundred and forty-seven thousand taels of silver and more than four thousand stones of grain. All the accounts can be checked." Wu Mengming said in a low voice, looking at the little eunuch leisurely holding a teacup: "Your Majesty, factory supervisor, I have really taken advantage of my humble position this time." All the strength of the milk is used up."
Chang Yu smiled slightly and put down the teacup: "Whose naughty girl should I eat? That girl's naughty girl from Lantingyuan Cuihong in Dashilar?"
Forehead! Wu Mengming was shocked. Lantingyuan's Cuihong was his top secret, and the little eunuch actually knew it. Hey, Dongchang's secrets were really all-pervasive, and the little eunuch was also keeping a close eye on him.
"Look at the nervous virtue on your face, are you afraid that the governor will steal your dick?" Chang Yu chuckled and knocked on the table, "You took fifty thousand taels, and the rest will be discussed by the military department within three days. Rewards for meritorious deeds will be distributed to the officers and soldiers, and you will personally supervise them to prevent anyone from filling their own pockets and putting the food directly into the treasury."
Wu Mengming frowned when he heard this: "Mr. Factory Supervisor, this is not what we said before. Isn't 50,000 yuan for a humble position a bit too little?"
Chang Yu picked up the tea cup and blew in a faint smile: "Mr. Wu, as the old saying goes, he who is content is always happy. You can get fifty thousand taels just by talking. Are you still not satisfied? Then the officers and soldiers in the Beijing camp risked their lives to defend the city and even died in the battle. "You only got a few taels of this million yuan, not to mention the fame you earned." He said with a long sigh: "Even the governor didn't get even a tael of silver this time, but he was still in debt. What the hell am I doing?" Who should I go to to complain to?”
"What do you think, Mr. Factory Superintendent, why is he in debt?" Wu Mengming was confused.
Chang Yu sneered: "Mr. Wu, let's not talk about anything else, but can you handle it if the father-in-law turns around?"
Hey! Wu Mengming suddenly had a bitter look on his face. Hey, the little eunuch is too shady. Every time before doing something, he would draw all kinds of cakes for himself to lure him into the water. Then he would pinch himself every time when settling the bill. However, he still enjoyed it. This time again……
"Mr. Factory Supervisor, I am not an unscrupulous person even if I am humble. I will use half of my fifty thousand taels of silver to honor you. My father-in-law, you are helping me to resist." I cursed you secretly in my heart. Obviously, my father-in-law is. You came up with a crazy idea to ask me to be the guarantor, and now I have to spend money... What else did you say that I could make fifty thousand taels just by talking? You know, all the nobles in Beijing have been offended by you now, go to It can be said that he was walking on thin ice in the end. If one day the commander of the Jinyiwei had his hat taken off, those people could kill him.
Chang Yu didn't seem to appreciate it: "Mr. Wu, please speak clearly. The recent anti-corruption crackdown has been severe. How could you openly bribe me? Are you trying to frame me?"
Wu Mengming was speechless: "I made a mistake because of my humble position. I didn't show respect to you. I donated it to the Fourth Battalion of Dongchang as military expenses because of my humble position."
Oh, Mr. Wu is so generous. With your salary, you can actually spend tens of thousands of silver at once. It seems that Dongchang needs a thorough investigation. Chang Yu squinted.
Wu Mengming's eyes darkened, and he secretly said: "Mr. Factory Supervisor, open four for one, four for the east factory, one for the humble job. If it doesn't work, kill the humble job!"
On the way, Chang Yu gave Commander Wu a thumbs up.
Wu Mengming finally breathed a sigh of relief. He had already visited the ancestral graves of Chang Yu's family, but he was also a little worried about Zhou Kui, the old rogue: "He is the head of the country. It's really difficult to deal with the trouble if there is no food and salt."
"Master Wu, you are the commander of the Jinyiwei. Why are you becoming more timid? What's wrong with the king's father? Without the Queen's support, can he be better than you and I working together? Can he outplay Dongchang and Jinyiwei?"
Wu Mengming's face turned red: "But after all...if he sues us everywhere, I'm afraid..."
Moreover, Chang Yu rolled his eyes: "There is no proof. Does he have any proof in black and white? If there is any proof, we will take him one hundred thousand taels. Even if he does, don't forget, it is still a donation! What does his voluntary donation have to do with us?" If there is a fuss, this governor will immediately accuse him of slander, slander, and even bribery... This governor doesn't take him seriously at all. I dared to ask him for 100,000 taels of silver, so I wasn't afraid that he would cause trouble." .
Wu Mengming breathed a sigh of relief that the little eunuch was so domineering, and he was extremely impressed. He thought that he was shameless enough, but compared with the little eunuch, he was just learning to speak. Just thinking about how much scolding I received after working for a long time, and in the end almost all of it was working for the little eunuch, not to mention how sad it was.
Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: Shukeju
