Wang Long and Li Hu were the general banner officers of a hundred households named Zhou Song. Each of them was in charge of about twenty people.
If they are willing to go to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, Chen Kan will naturally not treat them badly.
After promising that everyone would be promoted to one level, Chen Kan believed that their loyalty to him would reach its peak.
After dismissing the two of them, Chen Kan patted Shi Wen on the shoulder and said calmly: "As soon as His Majesty's imperial decree arrives, we will go to the Ministry of War to report it. Now, we have to humiliate you to stay in Jinyiwei for a few more days."
"Don't worry, sir, I'll save it."
Today's mission was successfully completed, and Chen Kan left the Jinyiwei with his hands behind his back.
After struggling for a while between going home, going to Fang Mansion, and going to Goulan to listen to music, Chen Kan finally decided to go to Fang Mansion.
Chen Kan didn't care about whether Xiu Yongle's grand ceremony and his return to local life were successful. The only thing he cared about was whether His Majesty was willing to marry the cute girl with big eyes to him. When Fang Xiaoru came back from his mission, he should have a confirmation.
But...it's still at least an hour before Fang Xiaoru's departure.
Going to Fang Mansion was in vain. After thinking about it for a while, Chen Kan headed towards the Qinhuai River Boat with a righteous look on his face.
Art needs soil to breed, and the creation of soil cannot be achieved without generous and elegant people like Chen Kan.
...
After an hour of art appreciation, Chen Kan suddenly remembered that there seemed to be something serious to do.
After getting off a small boat, Chen Kan thought hard and finally remembered that he hadn't eaten lunch yet.
"loss!"
"You don't even care about food. I won't come to this place next time."
"Bah, profiteer!"
Chen Kan took a step forward with satisfaction, turned a corner and walked towards Fang Mansion.
Thinking that he could have a meal at Fang Mansion, Chen Kan couldn't help but speed up his pace.
Chen Kan grabbed the time and came to Fang Mansion, and quite naturally ran into Fang Xiaoru who had just left work.
"snort!"
Fang Xiaoru glared at Chen Kan with an unkind expression, and then opened the door.
Chen Kan followed Fang Xiaoru like a bitch and said flatteringly: "Teacher, is it done?"
"No!"
"ah?"
When he heard that it didn't work, Chen Kan suddenly looked depressed, and his whole body seemed like an eggplant that had been beaten by frost, and he suddenly fell down.
Seeing Chen Kan's appearance, Fang Xiaoru found a bench and sat down, saying, "But His Majesty did not refuse!"
Chen Kan's eyes burst with hope: "Then what do you mean, Your Majesty?"
"Go out!"
Fang Xiaoru glanced at Chen Kan with disgust, and Chen Kan quickly ran into the room and poured out a cup of tea and handed it to him.
While squeezing Fang Xiaoru's shoulders, he said flatteringly: "Teacher, please think of a way. The student has never asked you for anything, but regarding the princess, the student is very worried."
Fang Xiaoru took the water and took a sip, then narrowed his eyes and enjoyed the moment of peace.
"I have two pieces of news, both related to the princess. Which one do you want to hear?"
"Focus on the left side and move three fingers to the shoulder and neck."
"Okay, okay, okay, okay!"
Chen Kan moved his left hand to the position where Fang Xiaoru said it and asked, "Is it good news?"
"Ah~"
Fang Xiaoru breathed a sigh of relief and responded: "One good news and one bad news, which one do you want to hear?"
"Bad news!"
Chen Kan did not hesitate and made his choice quickly.
Fang Xiaoru was stunned when he heard this and said with a smile: "The good news is that the princess will go to Linggu Temple to pray for His Majesty on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 14th."
Chen Kan couldn't help but roll his eyes, knowing that Fang Xiaoru would not play according to the routine.
But that girl can also recite sutras?
You should take the opportunity to run out and go crazy, right?
"What about the bad news?"
Chen Kan slightly increased his strength, and Fang Xiaoru's face suddenly showed a relieved expression.
He said calmly: "Bad news, the Marquis of Xiping will arrive in Beijing soon."
Chen Kan paused his hands and frowned: "Mu Sheng, what is he here for?"
But before Fang Xiaoru could speak, Chen Kan suddenly realized.
Zhu Yuelan in history was married to Mu Ying's fourth son, Mu Yu, and Mu Sheng was Mu Yu's elder brother.
This is a love rival.
King Muying of Qianning had four sons in total, the eldest son Mu Chun, the second son Mu Sheng, the third son Mu Ang, and the fourth son Mu Yu.
The eldest son Mu Chun died in the 31st year of Hongwu. Since he had no children, the title of Marquis of Xiping fell on Mu Ying's second son Mu Sheng.
Now, just two months after Zhu Di ascended the throne, Mu Sheng eagerly came to the capital to meet him. Even if he said that this was not a conspiracy, even a dog would not believe it.
"Teacher, if the student guessed correctly, King Qianning's youngest son is also here, right?"
Walking around to Fang Xiaoru, Chen Kan's face was filled with smiles.
"Hey! You little bastard."
Seeing that Chen Kan stopped being attentive after taking out the news from his mouth, Fang Xiaoru snorted dissatisfied.
Then he asked suspiciously: "How do you know?"
Chen Kan showed eight big white teeth and said with a smile: "You also said that these two pieces of news are related to the princess. The student thought that since the Marquis of Xiping came to Beijing to be related to the princess, he was just here to propose marriage to His Majesty."
"As far as the students know, the children of the Marquis of Xiping are all underage, and among the King of Qianning, only Mu Xin, the youngest son of the King of Qianning, has not yet married. If the Marquis of Xiping is not asking for his children, then he is asking for his younger brother. This is It’s easy to guess.”
After listening to Chen Kan's explanation, Fang Xiaoru laughed and scolded: "You little bastard is very clever. Okay, now that you know everything, get out of here."
"Hey hey hey, that student is leaving."
After getting the exact information, Chen Kan smiled and ran out of the room.
Just after leaving Fang Mansion, Chen Kan's brows wrinkled.
Judging from what Zhu Di meant, he wanted to compete fairly with Mu Xin.
Chen Kan's mouth felt bitter at the thought of having to compete with such a behemoth as the Mu family.
That was the Mu family, which had guarded Yunnan for generations and had hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers. They were truly a prince.
A small person like me can kill a lot of people just by stretching out their little thumb.
Fair competition, how to fight?
Chen Kan returned home with a sad face, locked himself in the room and couldn't help but sigh.
The Mu family is different from any opponent Chen Kan has ever faced.
Like Zhu Jixi and Ji Gang, Chen Kan could offend them without hesitation, and he could even muster the energy to fight with them.
The Mu family is different. The Mu family is not like Zhu Jixi. Zhu Jixi is just a stepping stone on Zhu Di's road to success. Zhu Di looked at him as an eyesore and found his hands to move him away. The role played by Chen Kan was those hands.
The Mu family is not like Ji Gang. Ji Gang is at best a dog raised by Zhu Di, and Chen Kan is not afraid of a dog.
But the Mu family... The Mu family was the real white jade pillar holding the sky in the Ming Dynasty. The purple golden beam that framed the sea in the southwest was like a divine needle that fixed the sea.
It can be said that without the Mu family guarding the southwest, the chieftains would have become independent long ago.
Zhu Di wants to fight with the Mu family by himself. Isn't this because he hopes that he will die early and be reborn?
