Everyone knew this was a solution and acquiesced in Zhang Juzheng's decision. Afterwards, everyone talked and laughed about this matter for a while, and then began to review the official documents in front of them. A matter that stirred up the capital was settled so easily!
Now that the cabinet has received the news, there will naturally be news sent to Emperor Wanli. But when he received the news, he and Li Hanlin had finished a class and were taking a break.
When he was teaching just now, Emperor Wanli was always thinking about the result of the competition, so his mind was unstable and his learning effect was very poor, which made Li Hanlin very dissatisfied. However, Li Hanlin did not have the power of Zhang Juzheng, and he did not dare to deal with Emperor Wanli. He could only give gentle advice. Although Emperor Wanli agreed, his thoughts were still outside the palace, so Li Hanlin could only shake his head and sigh!
Emperor Wanli had just drank half a cup of tea and was wondering whether to call Zhang Jia in for questioning when he heard Zhang Jia's footsteps! He turned around and saw that Zhang Jia appeared in front of him with a happy face!
Emperor Wanli knew the result just by looking at his face, but he still asked eagerly: "Zhang Jia, how are you? Did you win?"
Zhang Jia nodded happily and said: "Long live Lord, we have indeed won! Master Liu didn't even get injured here, but he knocked down all the soldiers from the Fifth Army Camp opposite! It is said that every one of them was beaten with bruises on the nose and face. My head is broken and bleeding, it’s very miserable!”
Emperor Wanli said happily: "Tell me the details!"
Zhang Jia explained the specific situation in detail, as if he saw it on the spot! Emperor Wanli burst into laughter upon hearing this! After laughing, he said: "Liu Aiqing did what he said, and he will win if he says he will win! But those soldiers in the Fifth Army Camp were too pussy, and they were defeated so quickly!"
Zhang Jia also smiled and said: "Long live my lord, we can't blame the soldiers of the Fifth Army Camp for being useless. Master Liu and the others use strong bows and powerful crossbows! Although the crossbows have no arrows, they will still hurt when they are shot on people." Awesome! And I heard from the messenger that many people were directly hit by crossbow arrows and had broken bones, lying on the ground unable to get up! How can we win in this situation!"
Emperor Wanli did not listen to Zhang Jia's explanation, but said with a longing look on his face: "What a pity! If only I were here, I could see Liu Aiqing show off her power! Zhang Jia, do you think I will have an army commander in the future? Opportunity?"
Zhang Jia said: "My Lord Long Live has a body of ten thousand gold, how can he go to that place where the soldiers are fierce and dangerous! This kind of thing has to be taken care of by people like Mr. Liu. Lord Long Live just needs to sit back and wait for the news of victory!"
When Emperor Wanli heard this, he lay helplessly on the table and said, "I know, I know, it's really boring!"
Then he suddenly sat up straight and said: "Zhang Jia, since the competition is over, let's do the rest as we agreed!"
Zhang Jia immediately bowed and said: "I understand, I will go find Commander Liu now."
Emperor Wanli waved his hand and said: "Go, go, and invite Master Li to come in for class. After class, I plan to go to the martial arts school!"
Zhang Jia agreed and turned around to leave. Not long after he left, someone came into the study. Emperor Wanli thought it was Li Hanlin who came in, so he stood up to greet him, but found that the person who entered was Feng Bao!
Recognizing Feng Bao, Emperor Wanli relaxed his body and sat back in the chair, saying, "Why is Feng Daban here? Where is Master Li?"
After Feng Bao saluted, he said: "Long live my lord, because I have something important to report, I would like to ask Li Hanlin to wait for a moment."
Emperor Wanli said: "Is there anything important that we can't talk about until I finish class?"
Feng Baoyi said righteously: "Long live my lord, this is a major matter concerning your safety! I heard the news and rushed here!"
Emperor Wanli raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Really? Then come and listen!"
Although Emperor Wanli didn't know what Feng Bao was going to say, since his own safety was involved, he had to be more serious. Now Emperor Wanli has been working hard to practice martial arts for a period of time. He feels that he has made great progress and is eager to have a chance to try his skills.
Feng Bao said: "Long live my lord, do you know that Liu Haojia, the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei, led more than a hundred Jinyiwei to compete with the soldiers of the fifth army camp today?"
When Emperor Wanli heard that Feng Bao was talking about this matter, he immediately lost interest. He relaxed his body and said, "I know this matter! It's just a fight, nothing special!"
But Feng Bao said with a serious expression: "Long live Lord, if it was really just a fight, it would be a small matter, but Liu Haojia was so bold that he actually used a large number of crossbows in this fight! Although there were no casualties, the impact was It's extremely corrupt! This crossbow is an important weapon in the army. If you use it casually, it will make a bad start. I'm afraid the people below will imitate it and it will be difficult to control it! In the future..."
Before he could finish speaking, Emperor Wanli interrupted him and said, "Feng Daban, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
Feng Bao already felt that something was not right at this time, but in order to deal with Liu Haojia once and for all, he still said categorically: "Your Majesty should order someone to capture Liu Haojia, hand him over to a competent authority for interrogation, and convict him according to law!"
Emperor Wanli took a deep look at Feng Bao and said: "I know, I have sent Zhang Jia to handle this matter! Okay, Feng Daban, please step aside first and ask Master Li to come in and continue teaching!"
Feng Bao also wanted to ask Emperor Wanli how he planned to deal with this matter, but looking at Emperor Wanli's firm eyes he had to retreat unhappily. But he didn't know that the cautious Emperor Wanli had made another entry in his account book!
Then Li Hanlin walked into the imperial study and began to teach Emperor Wanli. However, Emperor Wanli was in a good mood after receiving the good news. He could concentrate while listening to the lecture, and he could even draw inferences from one example!
Although Li Hanlin didn't know what Zhang Jia and Feng Bao said just now that made Emperor Wanli so happy, for him, it was great news that Emperor Wanli could listen to the class seriously! So he also tried his best to explain the articles in the book to perfection, and for a while, the imperial study room was extremely harmonious!
Zhang Jia left the imperial study and called an eunuch over to ask: "How did you do what you were asked to do?"
The eunuch bowed and said: "In return, Commander Liu has been waiting for you in Beizhen Fusi since he received your message!"
Zhang Jia nodded with satisfaction and said: "Prepare the car and go directly to Beizhen Fusi!"
When Zhang Jia's carriage arrived at Fusi, Beizhen, Liu Shouyou, who had received the news, had already personally greeted him! He warmly welcomed Zhang Jia to the lobby, sent someone to serve tea, and then started chatting about the world.
