A sudden punch knocked Ji Gang blind.
The Jinyi captain brought by Ji Gang had a look of shock and anger on his face, and he rushed forward to fight Chen Kan's personal guards. Unfortunately, this time Chen Kan's personal guards came out in full force, and they were absolutely crushed in numbers.
What's more, the personal guards under Chen Kan have experienced countless battles. In terms of personal martial arts, they are not comparable to the senior soldiers of Jin Yiwei.
Soon, Jin Yiwei was pressed to the ground and rubbed by Chen Kan's personal guards, and his screams echoed through the sky.
As for Ji Gang, he looked at Chen Kan blankly and opened his mouth to say something.
But Chen Kan didn't give him a chance to react, and immediately punched him in the face a second time.
After receiving two punches in the blink of an eye, Ji Gang could no longer bear it no matter how much he scrupled.
His eyeballs were bloodshot, veins popped out on his forehead, and his fists were gradually gaining strength.
But the next second, a cold black iron pipe was pressed against his forehead.
"Don't move, I didn't turn off the insurance."
With the short blunderbuss pressed against his forehead, Ji Gang broke through in one second, and sweat suddenly broke out from his forehead.
He also has a short blunderbuss, but the key point is that he really doesn't dare to move it now.
Everyone in the world knows that Chen Kan is a bastard. Not only did he kill the prince and beat up the ministers, but he also killed 20,000 White Lotus cultists outside the capital city without blinking an eye.
He Ji Gang could be considered "experienced in hundreds of battles", and it was not like he had never killed high-ranking officials, but the few people he killed were like child's play in front of Chen Kan.
Although he was sure that Chen Kan would not kill him and did not dare to kill him, he really did not dare to bet on his life.
Seeing Ji Gang standing motionless with a stiff face, Chen Kan whispered: "Master Ji, if you let me beat you, you won't lose two pieces of meat. Can't you cooperate well?"
Ji Gang was furious, his eyes filled with overwhelming anger.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Chen Kan, do you have to do something absolutely right?"
Listening to Ji Gang's gritted teeth, Chen Kan didn't say much.
When he first came to the Ming Dynasty, Ji Gang was a towering figure to him, but as he established a firm foothold in the Ming Dynasty, Ji Gang was actually like that.
Of course, the main reason is that the two chose different paths.
Ji Gang chose to attach himself to Zhu Di and became Zhu Di's dog to eradicate dissidents.
Chen Kan also started his career relying on Zhu Di. There is nothing to say about this, but the background behind Chen Kan is there.
Although the Huaixi Party was in disarray, the leaders such as Lan Yu Fu Youde and Chen Huan were almost killed by Lao Zhu.
Youdao is that a lean camel is bigger than a horse. He is a middle- and low-level general from the distinguished lineage of Huaixi, but he still misses his old love.
Not to mention that Chen Kan also has Fang Xiaoru, a good scholar, as his teacher.
Therefore, no matter how he goes, his path cannot go astray.
In addition, he also has some abilities, so the Hou Mansion can prosper.
As for Ji Gang, even if it is now impossible for him to expand to the point of rebellion, the final outcome cannot escape the shackles of being cooked by a cunning rabbit and a dead lackey.
This is determined by his identity and the future situation of Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, why Chen Kan chose Ji Gang to establish his authority today instead of others is because he valued Ji Gang and had little background.
Others, whether Li Jinglong or Xu Jingchang, are all people with backgrounds, and it is not easy to explain when they beat Zhu Di.
As for Ji Gang, if he fights, he will fight. The worst he can do is let the Wucheng Bingma Division and Dongchang fight against the Jinyiwei.
While Chen Kan and Ji Gang were in a stalemate, the captain of the Wucheng Army and Horses Division also ran to the front of Ji Gang's house under the leadership of Shi Wen.
"We have been ordered by Lord Zhanshi Chen Kanchen of the East Palace Zhanshi Mansion to carry out a new round of rectification of the security of the capital. What happened here?"
A school captain yelled first, and then, as if he had just seen Chen Kan and Ji Gang, he shouted in an extremely exaggerated tone: "Master Marquis, Lord Ji, what are you going to do?"
After being called out by the captain, the other captains hurriedly saluted the two of them and said, "I've met the Marquis, I've met Lord Ji."
Ji Gang's teeth almost shattered after listening to the nonsense spoken by the captain of the Wucheng Army and Horses Division.
"Chen Kan, Lord Marquis, is it okay?"
Hearing Ji Gang's hateful tone, Chen Kan took back the short gun with a smile and waved to Wang Can.
"Okay, let's go!"
Chen Kan simply ignored Ji Gang's murderous eyes and walked away with his bodyguards.
When the captains of the Wucheng Military and Horse Division saw that Chen Kan had left, they immediately cast a look of pity on the Jinyi captains lying on the ground, and then continued their anti-gang and evil activities.
Ji Gang stared at Chen Kan's back, clenching his fists until his nails were embedded in his flesh without even realizing it.
He hates it.
If he had known today, when Chen Kan was in Jinyiwei, he should have directly found an opportunity to kill him.
Instead of just letting Chen Kan go, he suppressed him.
The house was burned down, his men were beaten, and even he himself received two punches. He was unwilling to accept it.
If I don’t take revenge for this, I swear I won’t be a human being!
Ji Gang secretly swore a poisonous oath in his heart, and Ji Gang's expression slowly calmed down.
Chen Kan, he must kill him, but not now.
...
After Chen Kan beat Ji Gang, he felt refreshed and returned home with his bodyguards swaggering through the city.
After beating Ji Gang, all he had to do next was to wait for the people from the Military and Horse Division of the Five Cities and the people in the capital to publicize the matter, and then let the People's Daily of the Ming Dynasty add fuel to the fire. Chen Kan had achieved his goal.
By then, the people in the capital and even the people all over the world will know that there is more than one King of Han in the Ming Dynasty who is opening up territory for the Ming Dynasty.
You will also know that there is another prince in the Ming Dynasty who is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness.
Not only did he order the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to punish evil and promote good, he also severely punished the King of Hell, which severely dealt a blow to the arrogance of the Jin Yiwei in the Ming Dynasty.
I would like to ask, do you love His Highness the Crown Prince who considers the people and the officials in this way?
Chen Kan returned home in high spirits, and Chang Ning came up to him with Fengyang in his arms, teasing with a smile on his face: "My husband is showing off his power today, Ji Gang is a sharp blade in the hands of the father, so you just If you beat him like this, aren't you afraid that your father will cause trouble for you?"
Chen Kan gave up indifferently: "If you talk nonsense and your Majesty wants to cause trouble, you are also causing trouble for His Highness the Crown Prince. As a husband, I have been ordered by His Highness the Crown Prince."
Hearing Chen Kan put the responsibility on Zhu Gaochi in one sentence, Chang Ning couldn't help but rolled his eyes and said angrily: "You are about to leave, and you still do this, are you afraid that the prince's brother will live too comfortably, right?"
"Madam, what you said is not right. My uncle is a prince. Since he is a prince, a comfortable life is not suitable for him. If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. If my uncle can't even handle such a small scene, , his position as prince has long been snatched away by his second uncle."
"If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight. Where did you hear this slang?"
Chang Ning was a little surprised. After all, there was no such thing as a crown in the Central Plains.
"Don't worry about where I heard it from. All in all, you can rest assured that your brother, the prince, is far from being as simple as the world sees."
Chen Kan said some random nonsense to Chang Ning, then walked around him towards the backyard.
Chang Ning tilted his head and thought for a moment, then without hesitation chose to hold the child and follow behind Chen Kan, and asked in a low voice: "Husband, our family has offended Ji Gang like this, we must make some preparations, can we just let it go?" Don’t you care?”
Chen Kan nodded as he walked and said: "Of course we have to prepare, otherwise I would have gone to Qinhuai River to drink flower wine. What do you think I will do when I come back?"
"What, say it again!!!"
"It hurts, it hurts, let go first, let go first!"
When his ears fell into Chang Ning's hands, even a hero like Chen Kan had to succumb to the woman's power.
Chang Ning twisted Chen Kan's ear and turned it around fiercely. Then he looked at Chen Kan with an unkind look and threatened: "Your concubine is coming back soon. How dare you go to drink flower wine? Believe it or not?" ...I..."
Chang Ning didn't say anything constructive for a long time. Chen Kan simply ignored him and ordered to the door: "Ask Xing Fang to come see me."
There was a buzzing sound outside the window, but no one was there.
Not long after, Xing Fang, Chen Kan's oldest subordinate, hurried to the Hou Mansion.
Xing Fang is still a small household in the Wucheng Army and Horses Division. Fang Xu, the little bannerman under Xing Fang's command, has now become the commanding officer of the Shenji Battalion. Even Huang Gou'er has now become a member of the Five Cities. The chief steward of the city's army and horse department.
The other Wang Long, Li Hu, Zhang San, Li Si, Zhang Dong... This series of countless old men under Chen Kan now also have their own talents.
Speaking of which, a thousand households did treat Xing Fang a bit badly.
But this was not because Chen Kan was unwilling to promote him, but because he had other uses in the Five Cities Military and Horse Division.
Now everyone in the world knows that Xu Yuan, Shi Wen, Chen An, Zhang Yong, Huang Gou'er and others from the Wucheng Army and Horses Division are Chen Kan's loyal fans.
But few people know that all the secrets of the Wucheng Army and Horses Division are controlled by a small Qianhu like Xing Fang.
It is no exaggeration to say that in terms of strength, Xing Fang is the most powerful person in the entire Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division.
Chen Kan didn't promote him, he just didn't want something to attract too much attention.
"Master Hou, are you looking for me?"
Chen Kan sat on the bench in the study with a golden sword, and Xing Fang stood in front of him, still as before, cautious for fear of making mistakes.
Chen Kan nodded, pointed to the stool beside him and said, "Sit!"
Xing Fang sat down with half his butt next to the bench, raised his head and asked, "I wonder if the Marquis has called his subordinates to come here. What are your orders?"
Chen Kan casually stopped and said, "You and I don't have to be so reserved."
"yes!"
Xing Fang responded verbally, but he was still as stretched as a string.
Seeing this, Chen Kan said nothing more and asked directly: "Do you know everything that happened in the capital today?"
Xing Fang nodded and asked, "Does the Marquis want his subordinates to use a secret line to deal with Jin Yiwei?"
"I'm not talking about dealing with them. I just want you to pay more attention to the movements of the Jin Yiwei. If you reach out, you'll cut off your hands, and if you stretch out your feet, you'll cut off your feet. There's no need to actively provoke them."
"Okay, I understand, my subordinate. Does the Marquis have any other instructions?"
"Well, not for now. If I think of it, I will ask someone to inform you."
"yes."
Xing Fang had a taciturn nature, and now that he had obtained the contents of the mission, he had no intention of staying any longer and stood up to leave.
Chen Kan sent him out of the study, thought for a while, and after confirming that nothing was missing, he came to the atrium and prepared to enjoy the happiness of heaven and man.
But just after holding Fengyang and playing around for a while, Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhanhe arrived hand in hand.
As a result, Chen Kan fell out of favor so gorgeously.
Fengyang struggled and rushed toward the two of them, but Chen Kanla couldn't hold him back.
Seeing the three of them having fun, Chen Kan couldn't help but touch his nose, returned to the backyard angrily, picked up a pen and started writing a letter.
This letter is written to Mu Sheng.
After all, Yunnan is Mu Sheng's place. Since he is going to Yunnan, it is necessary to tell Mu Sheng in advance.
But as he wrote this letter, Chen Kan always felt weird.
Ever since he became a marquis, he and Mu Sheng have always been on equal terms.
Now Mu Sheng's two sons married Zhu Di's two daughters back to Yunnan, and Chen Kan and Mu Sheng's sons became brothers-in-law.
Therefore, Chen Kan suddenly discovered that he was twice as short as Mu Sheng.
Fortunately...it's not a big problem!
Everyone can talk about their own affairs. Chen Kan calls Mu Sheng's two sons brother-in-law, and Mu Sheng's two sons call him uncle. Isn't that too much?
After writing the letter to Mu Sheng, Chen Kan originally planned to write a letter to the two chieftains in Tonghai. Chen Kan got along happily with them back then.
But when he picked up the pen, Chen Kan was too lazy to write.
After all, we have to meet each other when we go to Yunnan, so why should we write a letter? I won’t write any more!
After leaving the study, having a lively dinner, washing up and having an in-depth exchange of feelings with Chang Ning, Chen Kan fell into sleep.
...
...
At the third watch, Chen Kan was sleeping soundly when a panicked female voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Master Marquis, Master Marquis, something bad has happened, something bad has happened. The second lady was assassinated on the river..."
"What?"
Chen Kan stood up from the bed with a start. Chang Ning opened his eyes and looked at Chen Kan with a confused look on his face.
The couple didn't care about anything else at this time. They hurriedly got up, put on their clothes and ran out the door. They saw the matchmaker who was supposed to follow Yun Niang and listen to her, standing at the door covered in blood. The entire Hou Mansion was also brightly lit.
Chen Kan glanced at the panicked servants, frowned and said, "What's going on?"
With that said, he led the matchmaker towards the corner. When Chang Ning saw this, he softly spoke to comfort the servants who were on duty at night.
"Master Marquis, my servant and the second lady took a boat upstream from Mingzhou. They originally planned to rest at Guazhou Pier for a night, but the second lady missed home, so they thought of sailing under the moonlight. When they arrived at the Yangtze River Pier less than ten miles downstream, they met with a group of people. A merchant ship collided, and the merchant ship was full of assassins. Seeing that something was wrong, the second lady asked her slaves to jump off the ship and come to the capital for help. The second lady led Wu Di and the others to fight fiercely with the assassins. Life or death was unknown at this time, so please hurry up. Go to the rescue quickly..."
After hearing what the matchmaker said, Chen Kan couldn't help but feel extremely angry.
When the matchmaker was assassinated, Chen Kan could use his toes to figure out whose handiwork it was, and it was no one else but Ji Gang.
But Daming adheres to the rule of not bringing harm to the family, so Ji Gang doesn't want to mess around anymore.
