News of the situation in Jizhou continued to spread. From Yongping to Jixian to the suburbs of the capital such as Miyun and Changping, the military camps originally belonging to the army were gradually taken back.
Inevitably, some people reported that Jinyiwei had caused serious troubles and even killed some wrong people.
All these were ignored by Zhu Houzhao.
At this level, Jizhou should break the old and build a new one.
The original letter from the Attendant to Yang Shangyi had received an answer. Seeing that Yang Shangyi had the conditions to succeed, the emperor was ready to take it to the cabinet for formal discussions with these people.
Wang Hao was summoned by the emperor before the Lantern Festival. In his opinion, the emperor was diligent in his work, even better than Taizong back then. To be honest, Zhu Dina was a lazy person, so he set up the cabinet.
Zhu Houzhao actually had inner motivation. He wanted to do these things well. It would be boring to stay in the palace, so he might as well discuss matters.
Wang Hao was born in Dongshan Town, Suzhou Prefecture, and was considered a prominent family in the local area. However, this aspiration came from his grandfather's business. Most of his father's generation also worked in this business. Only Wang Hao's father had a reputation and became the county magistrate. .
After so many generations of hard work, Wang Hao was finally born, and this time it was extraordinary. The top pick in high school became the emperor's teacher, and the Dongshan Wang family's status soared to the sky.
Wang Hao himself has four sons and five daughters. It can be said that his branches are flourishing.
However, none of them were particularly promising. It was just that the second son, Wang Yansu, was interested in military affairs, so he found a way to go to the military academy.
Logically speaking, his father is a cabinet minister, so this matter should not be difficult to solve.
But Wang Hao was not so polite. He was not willing to greet the emperor, nor was he willing to greet the Minister of War.
At one time, the relationship between Wang Yansu and his father and son was somewhat tense.
This matter was only resolved a year ago.
It was Zhu Houzhao who heard about it, so he gave him a quota from a related household.
Wang Yansu was particularly happy. He also idolized Wang Shouren of Governor Loop, and he felt that his path was similar to Wang Shouren's. After all, they both had an awesome father.
After Wang Hao received the imperial edict, he prepared to take a bath and enter the palace. While he was still changing, Wang Yansu came to see him. After seeing the ceremony, he said: "Father, your Majesty's imperial edict summoned Mr. Yangming to Beijing two years ago. I thought that he would definitely come to see him. Father."
"What are you thinking about?"
"My child has no other thoughts. He just wants to follow Mr. Yangming, even if he is a pawn."
"His Majesty has granted you permission to enter the military academy. It has only been a year. Are you ready to join the army?"
Wang Yansu was a little dissatisfied. Outsiders thought they were the sons of the elder, but in fact the old father was strict with them.
"When Mr. Yangming joined the army, he didn't even attend a day of military academy."
Wang Hao's expression was unhappy, "Wang Bo'an is very familiar with everything on the Nine Sides, and he is even more capable of arranging troops and formations without a teacher. How can you, a junior like you, understand it? If you are really free, go to the library garden." Read more about the art of war."
"father!"
Wang Yansu is already twenty-four, which is an advanced age among young people, but he has not yet accomplished much. The key is that he has a heart, and his old father always suppresses him.
"go back!"
Wang Yansu is so angry.
Go back to the backyard and vent your anger on the wooden pile.
His biological mother's surname was Hu. In addition to giving birth to him, Hu also had a son, Wang Yanling, and two daughters.
Mrs. Hu is the fourth person Wang Hao married, so this guy is so old, Wang Yansu is only in his early twenties, including Wang Yansu's two younger sisters, Wang Hui and Wang Yi, who are also the fourth and fifth.
"What are you angry about, second brother? Where is dad?"
Wang Yansu faced the wooden stake without looking back and said: "The decree has come from the palace, let's go to discuss the matter."
"Ah, it's so sudden. Did you say when you would be back?"
"Who can say for certain when the Emperor's meeting will take place?"
Wang Hui saw that his speech was a little rushed, so he asked with concern: "Second brother, did you say a few more words to dad again?"
Wang Yansu was holding back his anger, "I asked myself to join the army, and I didn't ask for any position because of my status as the son of the elder. I said I could just be a soldier, but I still said no. What do I want?"
The fifth king said, "Second brother has only been in the military academy for one year, why are you in such a hurry?"
"Your daughter's family is short-sighted. The most important thing for the emperor to clean up the border towns is this year. It is only this year that I can make great achievements. When the world is peaceful, I will learn to be like the Tang War God Li Jing. What's the point of having no use for it? ?”
Bang!
Wang Yansu pounded the wooden stake again.
Wang Hui and Wang Yi really don't care much about the affairs of the court. They only know that the emperor is young and promising. Of course, they have heard about some deeds, but they don't understand the details, so they can't say anything at the moment.
"...Then, what should we do?"
"Second brother." Wang Yi was the youngest and not sensible. She took out a delicate dagger from her sleeve and said, "Second brother, keep this."
Wang Yansu took it over and looked at the pattern on it, "Fifth sister, where did you get this good thing?"
"Second sister and I are here."
Wang Hao's eldest daughter married Xu Jin, a common scholar.
The second daughter married a man named Zhu Xizhao, who was also an official and worked in the military department of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Wang Yansu saw the exquisite patterns and fine workmanship on the dagger. After a while, she thought, "How can the second brother-in-law have such a good thing? Even our family has never seen it."
"It was also a gift from someone else. But the second brother-in-law likes literature but not martial arts, so he didn't care. I happened to be there, so I asked for it on my second brother's behalf."
"Oh." Wang Yansu blinked and seemed to understand, "Sure, then I will accept Fifth Sister's love."
When he pulled out the dagger, he saw that the lines of the blade were smooth and the edge was sharp and shiny. "It is indeed a good dagger!"
Looking at him, I became suspicious again.
"What's wrong?" Wang Hui asked, "What's wrong?"
"Tsk. Do you think he can have such a good thing?" Wang Yansu was amazed and explained: "In this big family, I am the only one who is good at wielding swords and guns. You don't think there is anything wrong with it, but I am at home and in the college. Including the ones I encountered outside, this is the first time I have seen such a good dagger. I am already the son of the elder... Fifth sister, do you know who gave it to my second brother-in-law? "
"I didn't ask."
"I'm afraid it's something from the palace."
"But the second brother-in-law...has never been summoned by His Majesty, right?"
Wang Yansu frowned, "That's why I say it's strange."
As he said this, he picked it up and looked through it again. Even more strangely, a thin piece of paper, only one width wide, fell out of the dagger.
"Huh? What is this?"
Wang Yansu bent down and picked it up. It didn't matter at first glance. After reading it, his scalp became tight because there were eight small characters written on it: start the army in February and act according to the plan.
These words hit his head somewhat, making him a little dazed.
In February, start an army?
What does it mean?
What does Zhu Xizhao want to do?
If such a thing really happened, what would his second sister do, and what would their family do?
"Dad...where's dad?!"
Wang Hui said: "Second brother, you are confused. Didn't you say that my father has entered the palace?"
"oops!"
Wang Yansu didn't care so much, turned around and ran away, he had to chase her.
At the same time, there was some movement in the palace.
Zhu Houzhao was originally going to meet with the cabinet members, but he was temporarily interrupted by Mao Yuwen, the commander of the Jinyiwei.
The emperor turned over the things he presented page by page, and the Nuan Pavilion became quieter and quieter.
"Is it King Shen or King Dai?" Zhu Houzhao's expression also changed and he became immersed.
"It's not certain yet." Mao Yuwen glanced at the emperor's face, "However, I think it's not important."
This guy is also a wonderful person, it doesn't matter, even if he gets involved, he will be dealt with.
"Don't make any noise for now and see what happens."
"yes!"
"Whether it's a battle of tricks or not, I don't believe that I can't do this!"
In the final analysis, there were only eight military towns, and they were cleared one by one.
"Send someone to see how long it will take Wang Shouren to arrive in the capital."
"Wei Chen obeys the order!"
