Liu Haojia took this opportunity to raise the wine bowl and toast everyone and said loudly: "Everyone, things don't happen overnight! If we want people to respect our generals, we must also show our own merits! And I believe we can go on step by step. , will always restore my Ming Dynasty to the heyday of its founding!" Kanshu La
His words again aroused everyone's applause. Even Qi Jiguang nodded repeatedly. The atmosphere was extremely lively for a while! Taking this opportunity, everyone raised their wine bowls to toast each other, and the big tent was very lively!
When the banquet was over, Qi Jiguang dismissed everyone, leaving one soldier alone, and then said to Liu Haojia: "Zhongen, you have great ambitions, but I am already old and can't do much! And because of the relationship between Enxiang and Enxiang, it is even harder to talk. , I just can’t even wave the flag and shout!”
Liu Haojia said hurriedly: "Master Qi, you are serious, you are our Ming Dynasty's Dinghai Shenzhen!"
Qi Jiguang shook his head and said: "What's wrong with Dinghaishenzhen? I won't say more, this man is my personal soldier, his surname is Qi, and his name is Qi Yuanzhi! From now on, let him be a personal soldier by your side, if anything happens If you need to contact me, you can ask him to come to me."
Liu Haojia was very surprised when he heard that Qi Jiguang recommended a personal soldier to him! Because the soldiers around the general are not ordinary soldiers, they must be the absolute confidants of the general! People like Liu Haojia are all orphans born from the Liu family's relatives and training.
Moreover, it is a taboo for military generals to directly recommend the soldiers around them to others! Who knows the identity of the person you recommended? What if one day I get some news and sell me out?
But Liu Haojia was sharp-minded and suddenly remembered that when Qi Jiguang introduced this person, he said that when he said his surname was Qi, he added an accent to the word "Qi"! Then he felt something in his heart and began to look at the young man carefully.
This young man looks to be about 20 years old. He is very energetic, strong and powerful! Just look at his stance and you can tell he has good martial arts skills! Then Liu Haojia focused on his face for a moment and then had a guess in his mind!
In Qi Jiguang's legendary life, there is also a characteristic that is much talked about, and that is henpecking! And it’s not just henpecked!
At that time, someone gave him an idea and said: "The general can defeat thousands of troops on the battlefield, so why are he afraid of his wife? Why don't he order his troops and horses to form an array, and then let his wife come to see him and give her a warning, maybe she will be afraid!" "
Qi Jiguang was delighted when he heard this and immediately adopted this method. After he ordered his troops and horses and rushed outside the house, he shouted to the panicked servant: "Call my wife to come out to see me!"
The servant ran through the door to report, but a moment later the lady swaggered out and shouted: "Why did you ask me to come out?"
Qi Jiguang was so frightened that he fell to his knees with a thud and said loudly: "Madam, please have a military parade!"
This allusion can be said to have been passed down to this day. At the same time, because of this allusion, Mrs. Qi was also listed as one of the top ten shrews in history!
It is said that the reason why Qi Jiguang was henpecked was that Mrs. Qi's family background was too high, and marrying Qi Jiguang was considered as a lower marriage! Another reason is that it is said that Mrs. Qi was extremely skilled in martial arts and could not be defeated by Qi Jiguang! But personally I think the first one is more likely!
However, because Qi Jiguang was extremely henpecked, he and his wife were not at odds with each other. He and his wife had children before, but they were all girls, and all of them died in infancy. But Mrs. Qi did not allow him to take concubines, so Qi Jiguang set up a concubine outside and gave birth to several sons.
According to Liu Haojia's thinking, this Qi Zhiyuan should be one of the children born outside the family. And the word "Qi" is just the consonant of the word "Qi".
Thinking of this, Liu Haojia felt that he had guessed the whole story, and then looked at Qi Jiguang, and sure enough he saw the anxiety, reluctance and expectation in his eyes! So he nodded and said, "Just let him stay with me!"
Sure enough, Qi Jiguang felt relieved as soon as he said these words! Then he took Qi Zhiyuan and said seriously: "Wu Ninghou is a great man in the world. You will definitely find a way out by following him in the future. It will be much better than staying under me! You don't even have a chance to get ahead with me." !」
Liu Haojia carefully studied the looks and gazes of the two people. He was sure that Qi Zhiyuan should know that he and Qi Zhiyuan
The relationship between following light. Because the way he looked at Qi Jiguang clearly contained complex emotions such as admiration, resentment, and respect!
This is not surprising. Qi Jiguang's military exploits are famous all over the world, so he is naturally respected by others! As his father, he should naturally be respected, but this world cannot tolerate illegitimate children. I'm afraid he has been criticized by others since he was a child, so it is normal to have some resentment towards Qi Jiguang!
Fortunately, after some struggle, Qi Zhiyuan still raised his hand and saluted and said, "Thank you for taking me in! I will do my best to serve you!"
Qi Jiguang also said: "Thank you so much, Mr. Hou! By the way, if there is any need for me in the future, Mr. Hou can just arrange for him to contact me directly!"
Later, when the two of them talked, they no longer used the honorific title, but used "you and me" instead, which shows that the emotions in their hearts were extremely high! However, Liu Haojia was helpless when looking at this situation. After all, there are always many helplessness in the world!
That night Qi Jiguang led people to stay overnight at Liu Haojia's camp. He and Qi Zhiyuan talked a lot overnight. They were both a little tired when they woke up in the morning, but fortunately both of them were emotionally stable.
Shortly after noon that day, the Qi family soldiers and horses from the brigade came to join them. From now on, Liu Haojia's side will have the advantage in military strength! And what satisfied him was that Zhang Jingping did not resist at all and honestly opened the city gate on time. Everything in Datong City was as usual!
When the Qi Jiajun from the brigade arrived, Zhang Jingping went out to greet them. If nothing else, at least he did it on the surface! Based on this, Liu Haojia will not touch the Zhang family again.
In the following days, Zhang Jingping gathered all his relatives and subordinates in Datong City and prepared to leave. Only then did Liu Haojia realize that he had not only gathered the people whose names were mentioned in the imperial edict, but also some people who were not mentioned in the imperial edict. They also seemed to be preparing to take them to the capital together!
His move surprised both Liu Haojia and Qi Jiguang! This clearly shows his intention to completely break away from Datong! But since Zhang Jingping has done a very good job, Liu Haojia will naturally not be stingy! He directly sent someone to give Zhang Jingping two of his name cards and two land deeds!
