Chapter 628-629 You have to protect your own people!

Chen Wu was the one who handed over the address. Even though he is now the first person besides Huang Run around the emperor's grandson, he has never forgotten this. There are eunuchs in the palace from all over the world, but only a few are powerful. I think

Among the twenty-four people brought back by the British Duke Zhang Fu from Jiaozhi, apart from the few who were favored by them, five or six people lost their lives silently, and the rest were working as messengers in various palaces.

Many of them have even become servants in the hallway.

The people who can be selected from the address and sent to the Ming Dynasty all have good facial features, but being able to look cleverly and be charming is not a talent brought from the mother's womb!

Therefore, after understanding Zhang Yue's intention of coming today, he immediately had an idea. At this moment, seeing Commander Wei frowning as if he was still hesitating, he coughed heavily, and then said with a smile:

"First, when Mr. Zhang went to Jiangnan, His Highness originally wanted to give you a few more people, but later because you wanted to hide your presence, he gave you four. Later, after hearing that the Japanese pirates invaded Songjiang Mansion that night, His Highness was still afraid.

It’s been a while. What’s more, Mr. Wan is going to Wala this time, so he needs to bring more people with him. I heard that the accompanying soldiers cost two hundred? In that case, let’s pick fifty people for the vanguard of the government army!”

Commander Wei is now in his early thirties and can be considered a very trusted general of Zhu Zhanji. Although he is very dissatisfied with Chen Wu's self-assertion, after listening to it, he thinks of Zhu Zhanji and Zhang Yue's previous visit here.

He got a taste of the situation. Anyway, this was Chen Wu's idea. He could blame it all on the eunuch, so why not give Zhang Yue some face? Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and nodded readily.

.

"In that case, please Sir Zhang and Sir Wan come with me."

Wan Shijie was watching Chen Wu talking to himself. Commander Wei's face was first suppressed and then raised, while Zhang Yue stood there smiling without even saying a few words. He couldn't help but be amazed in his heart. So, seeing that

A conductor ordered a strange combination of eunuchs to go ahead. He couldn't help but press the palms of his hands, thinking to himself that no wonder Zhang Yue had pulled him here in a hurry.

The interpersonal relationships in this capital are complicated, and he, who is so unrelated, really has a warm-hearted friend... No, he is a warm-hearted brother-in-law!

But Zhang Yue's heart was far from being as indifferent as he appeared on the surface. He originally just thought that the vanguard of the government army was also the Beijing guard, so he found a few familiar officers and recruited ten or eight reliable people with this face.

Problem, it would also be better to avoid an accident on the road if a civil official could not move his head on Wanshijie. Who knows, he would meet Chen Wu here by chance. This young eunuch did not wait.

He had arranged everything clearly, and his astuteness was simply amazing.

During the Hongwu period, the ten upper guards of the Beijing Guard and the twenty-two upper guards of the Beijing Guard took turns to guard the palace, so most of the real camps were outside the city. The avant-garde of the imperial army also accompanied Zhu Zhanji to practice military formations and practice martial arts.

Because of their reputation, the camps in the capital were larger than those of ordinary Jingwei, and the small school grounds were completely exclusive for their use. Therefore, Commander Wei only asked people to give orders. At this time, ten people were already standing on the east side of the small school grounds.

There were ten neat rows of people.

Chen Wu said it was fifty. Commander Wei thought that since he was doing favors, he might as well make it bigger, so he immediately selected a hundred elite soldiers. He patted his chest and confirmed that he would go back and handle the matter with the Ministry of War, which was not far away.

However, there was a man running over with great strides. When he got close, he knelt down on one knee and performed a military salute. When he saw Commander Wei nodding, he jumped up neatly.

"Master Zhang, I won the first place in the last competition!" Shi Heng's coat and military robe were no different from those of other sergeants, except that he wore a silver-trimmed futou on his head. Seeing Zhang Yue, he just smiled and praised,

Thinking of the news he had just heard, he could not hold back and simply said bluntly, "I heard that you are selecting people to go to Wala, how about me?"

Chen Wu clearly remembered everyone Zhu Zhanji had met and expressed appreciation for, so he naturally recognized Shi Heng. After all, after Zhang Yue returned to the military department, Zhu Zhanji only visited a few times, but every time

Every time, Shi Heng was ordered to accompany him. At that time, Shi Heng won the first place in the competition of his Qianhu Office. He still remembered what the emperor's grandson said at that time.

"The person Zhang Yue likes is really not bad!"

Even Faang Ling, whom the emperor's grandson sent away out of anger, turned out to be nothing more than a misunderstanding. Now he has been transferred to the East Palace as an official. Zhu Zhanji felt sorry for him for a while, but he was the one who was most moved.

Therefore, seeing Shi Heng making such a request rashly, he immediately shook his head angrily. After all, he was young and energetic, so how could Wala be a good place?

"Do you really want to go?" Seeing Shi Heng nodding his head without hesitation, Zhang Yue immediately hesitated. But thinking that this boy was skilled in martial arts and had extraordinary shooting skills, and he was only thinking about making achievements on the battlefield, he was able to stop him this time.

There's no chance of next time, so he nodded, "Well, after all, your skills haven't gone through a battle, so it's okay to hone them. However, you are now in the army, so you need Master Wei's nod, not to mention

His Royal Highness, the Emperor Taisun, has been kind to you, so what’s the use of just begging me?”

As soon as these words came out, not to mention Chen Wu, even Commander Wei was stunned. Although Zhang Yue did not agree explicitly, his meaning was clear. Commander Wei naturally would not stop a reckless Leng.

Boy, Chen Wu thought about it briefly and promised to go back and talk to Zhu Zhanji, but in his heart he had already classified Shi Heng as a brave and foolhardy one.

It should be noted that Zhang Yue recommended this person and always hoped that he would rise to the top. So in the vanguard of the government army, the first to get the better is always closer to the water. But now this kid has volunteered to go to dangerous places. Is it because he thinks his life is too long?

After such a thing was done, Wan Shijie, who had been standing nearby as a mute, had to come out and thank him repeatedly. Zhang Yue didn't want to stay too long, so he left in a hurry. When the vanguard of the army came out and mounted their horses, Wan Shijie drove his horse closer.

, asked the question that he had just been holding back for a while: "Whether you go to Qingzhou first or go to Jiangnan, even if you go to Xinghe, you will select people from the Beijing camp. Why would you think of the avant-garde of the government army this time? Then

After all, you are the emperor's grandson's personal soldier. If others find out, they will not gossip about you. On the contrary, Anyuanhou, who is in charge of the Beijing Camp, is your in-law. Isn't this more low-key?"

Zhang Yue casually grabbed the reins at this time, but he was thinking about the scene when Zhu Di brought Zhu Zhanji over that night. Zhu Di was not a strict emperor like Zhu Yuanzhang. He rarely went out of the palace at night to inspect various ministries, let alone deliberately

He took Zhu Zhanji with him. Even though he was upset after learning about the military report, he went out for a walk, but he rushed into the Ministry of War's Staff Department. Maybe it was Zhu Zhanji's instigation. So, he was absent-minded and asked again until Wanshijie.

, and then he came back to his senses.

"There are many hereditary officers in the Beijing camp. If there are rumors spread against me there, it will be even more troublesome to go there to transfer people. Besides, the person who goes there this time is you and not me. There is no guarantee that someone on the way will have other ideas. Besides,

The avant-garde of the imperial army is originally the Jingwei. His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun agreed. It is up to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to decide on the issue of Fu Zhengfa. It is hard for others to say anything. If possible, I would naturally want Zhou Bailing to accompany you, but it is a pity that he has already been promoted.

I’m still in Daning right now.”

Everyone thought that Anyuan Hou Liu Sheng had done evil to him, so it would be better for him to show up less at this time.

“Good things don’t go out and bad things spread thousands of miles. This is really an irrefutable principle!”

Forgetting this incident for a moment, Wanshijie could only shake his head in annoyance, and then burst out with such emotion. Along the way, their close friends and brother-in-law never said any more unnecessary words. When they turned in

Arriving at Liubu Hutong, Zhang Yue saw Wanshijie dismounting in front of the yamen of the Ministry of Rites. He threw the reins to a Zaoli and walked in. He gave another loud reminder.

"Get ready. When you come back, I'll treat you to the fresh stuff grown in my field!"

"I know, I'm not leaving today!"

Wanshijie waved his hand without looking back. After entering the door, he changed his face to a serious official expression, but in his heart was an unrelated thought - the fresh fruits grown in Zhang Yuetian.

Damn, this won’t kill people, right?

Zhang Qian asked Zheng He, Wang Jinghong and Yang Qing that day. Within a few days, he received various large packets of seeds. He was so busy with things that he gave them up without even a hint.

Zhang Yue. Although Zhang Yue was thinking about corn, peanuts, sweet potatoes, peppers, etc., he had difficulties facing these various seeds, so he had to go to the farm to find a few farming experts, and ordered them to slowly start testing.

He became the shopkeeper. After all, his poor agricultural knowledge was of little use here.

Moreover, judging from the appearance of those seeds, it seems that his favorite corn and pepper are not available, so he should try Western specialty crops...

As the nine gates were closed and the curfew drum sounded, the noisy and bustling capital during the day suddenly fell silent. Since the emperor fell ill, singing, singing and dancing stopped at the gates of the big houses in the city. On the contrary, officials visited each other more frequently.

However, there were not many visitors to the Zhang Mansion. After dinner, Zhang Yue went to check on Zhang Ji and Fang Jing, and by the way brought back a pile of essays and essays they had written during the day. He went back to the study and read through the thick paper.

He threw the folded paper aside and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

This imperial examination only takes a few days to review, but there are thousands of papers to look at. Whether you can win or not depends mostly on luck. In addition, one depends on the hand of calligraphy, and the other is whether the examiner can do it during the inspection.

Let him take a fancy to the paper on the spot. As for the third, it is whether he can write a stunning masterpiece. Zhang Jiu's article is already very popular. Although Fang Jing is a little immature, he has already done it.

It's considered outstanding, but I can't say whether I passed the exam or not.

They are peers now, and they will be sons and nephews in the future. Although he does not expect his son to rely on this stepping stone in the future, but he does not want to raise a dude who just lives on his father's inheritance. Thinking of this, he raised his head

When he turned his head, what he saw was Lian Sheng and Lian Hu winking back and forth.

"Ahem!" A cough brought the two people back to their spirits, and he asked sternly, "You two are married and have children now. The eldest brother is no longer young. You used to have separate relationships with the eldest brother and the second brother.

After making arrangements, I also plan to move a place for you."

Since Zhang Yue now has four of them, Niu Gan, and Peng Shisan always follows him every step of the way, Liansheng Lianhu has almost completely lost his job as a follower. He is mostly idle during the day, that is, serving in the study at night.

When they heard this, the two of them were shocked. You know, they can only read and write, but their martial arts skills are mediocre. They can't go out to be shopkeepers and do business. If Zhang Yue doesn't want them, they will change to something else.

What a good job, but it might be lost in the end!

"Master, we brothers don't have anything else, so just keep us by your side!"

"What's the point of waiting for pen and ink in the study? Can I be a servant for the rest of my life?"

Zhang Yue had already considered this matter in his mind, and naturally he would not continue to grind his teeth with the two of them at this time: "Liansheng, you have a stable temperament. Please pay more attention to the land I planted on Zhuangzi before. In addition, there are also my wife and I."

Several Zhuangzi will be handed over to you slowly. Lian Hu, you are smarter than your elder brother. Let’s go to the clan school for a while. From now on, it will be under your control. In addition to pen and ink books and various utensils, for now, I will

There is one thing. I will draw up a paper for you later. You can give it to the students to do it later. Then you can repay me with these. You have been with me for many years and have different feelings. I don’t want to give you any lengthy instructions.

You others."

He paused for a moment, and then emphasized his tone: "Any merit will be rewarded, and any fault will be punished. You just need to remember this."

Lian Sheng and Lian Hu did not expect that Zhang Yue had already planned it for the two of them. He stood there blankly for a while, and did not wake up until he heard the last words. After all, Lian Hu was smart and quickly pulled his eldest brother to kneel down and kowtow.

Immediately he said as if he was swearing: "Don't worry, young master, I will do my best and never let down the trust of the young master!"

"Young man, you must watch Zhuangzi carefully and don't let those bastards steal the money of the young master and the young mistress!"

Lian Hu's words sounded fine, but when he heard Lian Sheng's gruff assurance, Zhang Yue couldn't help laughing, and stepped forward angrily and nudged him with his toes. When the guy raised his head, he angrily

He scolded: "Don't be strict when doing things. If you just watch, those people will not be able to make money, and their minds will be in other places. In short, both of you should follow Gao Quan and learn from it. You even had family farming

Earth, now that you are literate again, it’s time to earn a good future for your descendants!”

Seeing that it was getting late, Zhang Yue couldn't help but feel funny when he saw that the two brothers were full of energy, so he stood up and prepared to go back to the house. After taking only two steps, he remembered something, turned around and hugged the thick stack of ink scrolls.

Then he went out. When he returned to the house, he saw Du Wan writing something on the Kang table, so he put the stack of things on the Kang table.

"My dear wife, this is the article manuscript written by Fourth Brother and Xiao Fang. If you are free during the day, please help me read it. Don't glare at me. I know you are not learning stereotypes. I just want you to read the ideas and counterpoints. In addition, there are also

There are their words. You are also Shen's favorite disciple. Today's examiners are all deeply influenced by the golden jade book. Fourth brother and Xiao Fang are both Shen Ti in Lin. Naturally, no one can compare with you in this aspect.

I'm more proficient. Lao Wan is leaving, and I have to make some preparations in the past few days. I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of them."

Du Wan originally wanted to say that Zhang Yue knew how to say it nicely, but when she heard the last sentence, her smile disappeared and she just nodded lightly. She didn't want Zhang Yue to take risks, but why did he
