Early the next morning, Zhang Mingwei got up first and quietly went out to the outhouse. Unexpectedly, Zhu A'ao and Fei Zhen'e were already waiting here.
Seeing him coming out like this, strange smiles suddenly appeared on their faces.
When Zhang Mingwei saw this, he stopped playing lightly. He just told Zhu Nuao: "She was tired last night. Let her sleep more. I will go to the Jinyiwei Yamen to be busy first. We must send out troops today. I will give it to her when I get back. Let me elaborate on what I asked her to do last night!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuyao continued to show her weird smile and said, "I didn't expect that Mr. Sir is really considerate!"
Hearing this, Zhang Mingwei became serious and said seriously: "Since she is my woman, of course she must be considerate."
Having said this, he added: "Actually, she is also very pitiful. Her parents died when she was young, and she has no one to rely on. She relies solely on her own intelligence to survive in this world. It is really not easy!"
Hearing this, Zhu Ainao also became serious, nodded and said: "Don't worry, sir, when I asked her to serve last night, it was just to enable the Zhang family to have children as soon as possible, and of course I won't treat her badly."
In this era, there are three types of unfilial piety, the greatest of which is not having children. Moreover, the child's mortality rate is very high. As long as they are capable, they will definitely marry more to ensure they have offspring.
Of course, it is impossible to have three wives and four concubines, because there is usually only one wife.
On the bed in the back room, Chen Yuanyuan had actually woken up when Zhang Mingwei made any movement.
After secretly watching Zhang Mingwei go out quietly and hearing the conversation between him and the princess, Chen Yuanyuan's eyes suddenly turned red.
Others thought she lived a glamorous life, but how many people knew how hard her life was and how helpless she was!
To be honest, Chen Yuanyuan has certainly thought about it more than once, what will be her future destination?
Although she had also dreamed about it, in fact, she was very self-aware. No matter how beautiful and talented she was, she would only be sent around by those with power and money. It was impossible for her to make the decision on her own!
But now, she is already the woman of Duke Xingguo.
This Duke of Xingguo is young, talented, and powerful. From every aspect, he is the best husband.
But at this time, what makes Chen Yuanyuan most attracted to Duke Xingguo is not these, but the fact that Duke Xingguo understands her!
Therefore, although Chen Yuanyuan knew that in this mansion, she was definitely not the mistress, and her status was lower than Princess Kunxing. It can even be said that Fei Zhen'e's status should be a little higher than hers. However, with this opportunity now, what else is there to be dissatisfied with? If it spreads to the south of the Yangtze River, it will definitely be envied by people there!
Thinking this, Chen Yuanyuan's eyes were red, but she showed a silent smile with satisfaction.
………………
In the lobby of Jinyiwei Yamen, several people were already waiting for Duke Xingguo. They are Jin Zhensun, the commander of the Beijing Infantry Army, and Zhang Luofu, the commander of the Ma Army. There are also the eunuch Wang Erbiao, the eunuch who is responsible for the ceremony, and another one-eyed general, Ma Xianglin, who leads the white pole army.
The capital was still under martial law, but the emperor sent an order to them, asking them to come to the Jinyiwei Yamen and obey the orders of Jinyiwei's commander, Duke Xingguo.
Relatively speaking, Jin Zhensun, Zhang Luofu, and Wang Erbiao were better off, because they were either recommended by Zhang Mingwei or had spent some time with Zhang Mingwei.
However, Ma Xianglin has never dealt with Zhang Mingwei. After arriving at the capital in accordance with the order, what I heard most was the rumors about Duke Xingguo.
To be honest, he was really envious that Duke Xing was the Duke at such a young age. But when he heard that Duke Xing Guo dared to offend all the dignitaries in the capital for the sake of refugees, he still admired him sincerely. Ask yourself, he can't do it on his own.
Also, Duke Xingguo was able to solve the original case of Jiulian Bodhisattva and made Duke Cheng into a traitor. Ma Xianglin admires this very much. Without some ability, it is absolutely impossible to do it.
However, he had some objections to the fact that Duke Xing Guo had withdrawn all the Liao people into the pass and made a show of not fighting for Liaodong.
Thinking about the bloody battle at Hunhe River and the bloody battle of the White Army in Liaodong, this revenge has not yet been avenged!
Thinking of these, I finally waited for the arrival of Duke Xingguo.
Before he could introduce himself to Duke Xing, Zhang Mingwei walked up to him with a smile and said, "This must be the legendary Xiao Ma Chao, Ma Xianglin, the son of Qin Liangyu, the female general of the Ming Dynasty whom I most admire, right? "
Zhang Mingwei's title and official position are high, so it is not rude to call him by his first name. People in the military are not so particular.
Not to mention, when Zhang Mingwei opened his mouth, it was Xiao Ma Chao, and then the most admired female general of the Ming Dynasty. His opening remarks immediately made Ma Xianglin very fond of him, and he quickly clasped his fists and replied: "Don't dare, the last general is Bai The pole army and horse Xianglin!"
Of course Zhang Mingwei knew that. He reached out and patted Ma Xianglin on the shoulder and said with emotion: "You and your family have all served the country loyally for the Ming Dynasty. If the Ming Dynasty's military generals and nobles all follow your example and have one-tenth of your strength, this The world has been at peace for a long time!"
Without waiting for Ma Xianglin to be humble, he said as if he were familiar with the treasures of his family: "Not to mention that your mother led the troops to quell the She'an rebellion in the southwest, but now she is old and is still leading the troops to quell the rebellion. And your wife, who is also a member of the Ming Dynasty. He fought to the last drop of his blood and was loyal to the country. Not to mention, the bloody battle of Hunhe River demonstrated the military might of the Ming Dynasty and let the Jianlu know that the Ming Dynasty still had a strong army..."
Ma Xianglin didn't expect Zhang Mingwei to be so familiar with these things, and he also expressed admiration in his words, which made his favorable impression even stronger.
Later, when he heard Duke Xing mention the bloody battle at Hunhe River, he couldn't help but say, "My lord, there is something that I am secretly keeping in my mind, and I am a bit unhappy about it!"
"Oh?" Zhang Mingwei couldn't help but be a little surprised after hearing this.
From Ma Xianglin's tone, it seemed that he wanted to give himself some advice. But, haven’t we just met, so we have an opinion?
Thinking like this, he became a little curious and said with a smile: "If there is anything between you and me, just talk about it!"
After hearing this, Ma Xianglin showed gratitude, but then he said seriously: "My lord, why do you want to withdraw the soldiers and civilians of Liaodong into the pass? Is this how the imperial court is going to abandon Liaodong? The last general is incompetent, and he is willing to take the lead. Ganjun will fight Jianlu again to the death!"
After hearing this, Zhang Mingwei immediately understood what he meant.
But to be honest, he didn't think the white pole army would be of any use if it came out of seclusion!
In the bloody battle of Hunhe River, the Baigan Army and the Qi Family Army combined their pikemen and firearms soldiers to cause heavy casualties to Jianlu. In the end, the wild boar skin killed several fleeing generals, and had to call in the cannons on the top of Liaoyang City to bombard them. The Qi army had to finish the gunpowder and lead bullets, and it was considered a tragic victory.
In that battle, the Baigan Army became famous. But the Baigan Army that time should have been Shizhu's elite soldiers. Losing one battle was actually a very big blow to the Baigan Army.
You know, the troops of the Baigan Army are all from Shizhu, and all those who can fight in the first generation are dead. If a new one is formed, the combat effectiveness will naturally be not as good as before. Not to mention, after years of suppressing thieves, losses are naturally inevitable, so the quality of the white-pole army will only get worse and worse.
Zhang Mingwei was thinking about it. When Ma Xianglin saw that he was silent, he spoke again: "My lord, if you give up Liaodong, you will be impeached one day. Please think twice before you act!"
Hearing this, Zhang Mingwei came back to his senses and couldn't help being a little speechless. He immediately said: "Who said we would give up Liaodong?"
Upon hearing this, Ma Xianglin was a little confused, and immediately asked: "If Liaodong is not abandoned, why should the soldiers and civilians of Liaodong be withdrawn into the pass?"
After all, he is just a military commander and has been suppressing thieves. Therefore, he does not know much about Liaodong's strategy.
After hearing this, Zhang Mingwei turned around and walked back to the main seat. Before sitting down, he said to Ma Xianglin: "The purpose of withdrawing the soldiers and civilians of Liaodong into the pass is to deal with the Jianlu. In addition, I called you here to deal with the Liaodong Jianlu!"
Upon hearing this, Ma Xianglin knew that he had misunderstood Duke Xingguo. For a moment, I couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.
Zhang Mingwei looked at the few people in front of him and suddenly said seriously: "Now it has been found that there are profiteers selling iron and food on a large scale to Liaodong and informing Jianlu. The imperial court lost Liaodong, and even in the current situation of the Ming Dynasty, these profiteers have A great responsibility. Such profiteers are tantamount to conspiracy. Your Majesty has issued an order to investigate these profiteers and punish their nine tribes!"
These people don't know this. When I heard this, I couldn't help but be surprised.
Of course they knew how harmful it would be to resell iron and grain to Liaodong on a large scale and to inform Jianlu!
Therefore, upon hearing this, everyone was immediately furious.
Zhang Mingwei then took out the map that he had marked yesterday, showed it to several of them, explained the situation, and assigned tasks one by one.
At the end, he solemnly emphasized: "I have just mentioned the great power of these Shanxi merchants. Now that the capital is under martial law, the news in the city cannot be spread, and those Shanxi merchants must not know about it. You must also keep it secret. When we arrive, Whenever the local government announces something to be done, it must give these Shanxi merchants a thunderous blow and never let any of them escape!"
"General, I obey!" After hearing this, Ma Xianglin and others immediately shouted back with anger.
If we don’t put these borers in one pot, we would be so sorry for so many people who died!
So, after a detailed discussion, these people took the order and rushed to Shanxi with the army.
Zhou Wenzhen is also in their team, because there are believers there who might be able to use him.
When the people in the capital heard the news of the army's mobilization, they became even more panic-stricken, thinking that the bandits were really going to come to the capital soon.
After a busy day, Zhang Mingwei finally returned to his home in the evening.
Well, my steps were brisk, and I seemed to feel like I was returning home.
