Chapter 11 Welcoming the Young Master Jiang Qingzhi ate a little casually, then made the excuse of being tired and got up to go back to rest. His room was the most "luxurious" in the village. The bed, according to the owner, was more than 300 years old and had black bedheads. "Shi Tou, you stay outside and don't let anyone in." Jiang Qingzhi entered the room. Sun Chonglou was gnawing on half a roasted chicken, nodding with his mouth full of chicken, "Master, don't worry, I guarantee that not even a male fly can fly in." Foodie... Jiang Qingzhi entered the room and closed the door. He sat on the edge of the bed and closed his eyes. In my mind, the big cauldron was slowly spinning. Jiang Qingzhi waited nervously for the side with the words to come over.
How much longer can this war extend the country's destiny? The big tripod turned slowly, and Jiang Qingzhi wanted to kick it. When that side turned around, Jiang Qingzhi looked at it carefully. —. How much was it last time? years. Subtracting this number, the defeat of the main force of the Japanese pirates increased the Ming Dynasty's reign by years. Jiang Qingzhi sighed greedily, "Isn't this too little?" If we could land in Japan someday, how much longer would our country's life be? He was suddenly startled. The increase or decrease of a country's destiny is related to the overall national conditions. If Japan did not exist, the Ming Dynasty would have saved a lot of military expenses during the Wanli period. At least it can extend the country's life by another twenty years, right? Tsk! Jiang Qingzhi's eyes lit up, and he wished he could immediately lead his army across the sea to destroy Japan. correct. What about rewards? Jiang Qingzhi is looking forward to the prize. Something suddenly appeared in my mind. Jiang Qingzhi was stunned. "Fuck you!"
It turned out to be a flashlight. Can't you give me a sword? Jiang Qingzhi cursed inwardly with gnashing teeth. …… After the celebration banquet, the drunken Zhang Mao summoned Wang Yu and others for a secret meeting. "What is Qian Hu going to do?" "Could it be..." People made various guesses, all thinking it was related to the good news. The time has come to share the credit. Zhang Mao sat there, took a sip of the rough tea, and said, "I didn't send someone to deliver the victory report immediately because I wanted to discuss it with you." Everyone sat down, just like children sitting in a row, waiting to share the fruit. "Captain!" Wang Yu turned sideways. Deputy Captain Wang is probably going to compete for credit! Thinking of Wang Yu's attitude towards Jiang Qingzhi along the way, as well as his various overt and covert hostile actions, everyone felt nervous and most of them felt unfair for Jiang Qingzhi. But Wang Yu has a lot of say in the Qianhu Office. If he objects, it will be difficult for Zhang Mao to insist on his own way. "Go ahead." Zhang Mao nodded. Wang Yu said: "I think Jiang Maocai should also be included in the victory report!" What the hell! Is Vice Captain Wang drunk? Everyone was shocked. The same is true for Zhang Mao. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Wang Yu blushed, and then said sincerely: "To be honest, I was not convinced earlier, thinking how could a son-in-law's son be above us? But after this battle, I am convinced by Jiang Maocai." Wang Yu and Zhang Mao have a good relationship, but Wang Yu is well-educated and often acts arrogantly, as if he is a scholar and all of you are fools. In this thousand-household unit, Wang Yu never bowed his head to anyone. But today, he lowered his head for the first time in front of everyone. Zhang Mao coughed dryly. "What do you think?" Wang Yu said: "I think the first merit of this battle should go to Jiang Maocai!" After saying that, he looked at Zhang Mao nervously. Worried about being refuted.
Zhang Mao looked at him expressionlessly, then slowly looked at the generals. Everyone was silent. "Hahahaha!" Zhang Mao suddenly laughed, then waved his hand, "Show them the victory report." The clerk handed the prepared victory report to Wang Yu. Wang Yu took a closer look. The first contributor to this battle: Jiang Qingzhi from Suzhou! He looked up at Zhang Mao. "How?" Zhang Mao asked with a smile. "This is what we men should do!" Wang Yu laughed. "Hahahaha!" The loud laughter reached Jiang Qingzhi's ears, and he cursed, "What a bunch of drunkards!" In his hand was a rechargeable flashlight. I opened it casually. What the hell! That light... At this moment, the sun was almost setting, and Sun Chonglou outside was startled by the light projected through the crack in the door. "Master has become a god?!" …… Dozens of riders were galloping on the official road. When he arrived at the post station, Dou Jialan didn't even have time to rest and started asking questions first. "Have you heard any news about the Japanese pirates?" The postmaster did not dare to neglect these Jinyiwei and said respectfully: "They said they are nearby, but our Qianhu Suo has sent out troops." "Do you know where the prisoners who were exiled to Taizhou Prefecture went?" Dou Jialan asked softly, but the Jinyiwei had a bad reputation and the voice sounded like thunder in the ears of others. The postmaster was so nervous that he trembled a little under Dou Jialan's gaze. He said, "Yesterday, an idler said that he saw several prisoners following the army to the seaside." "Walk." Dou Jialan asked for the direction and continued on his journey with his subordinates.
It was not until the morning of the next day that Dou Jialan saw the village and finally breathed a sigh of relief. There was a sentry at the entrance of the village. He heard the sound of horse hooves and shouted, "Who is it?" When the Jinyiwei's attire came into view, the sentry was stunned. After verifying their identities, Dou Jialan asked, "Do you know where a prisoner named Jiang Qingzhi is?" In an instant, Dou Jialan saw anger in the soldier's eyes. Are these Jinyiwei here to arrest Jiang Maocai? The sergeant wanted to speak up for Jiang Qingzhi, but he was intimidated by the Jinyiwei's bad reputation, so he lowered his head and said, "Yes." "lead the way." Finally, the real culprit was found. All the fatigue from the journey seemed to come out, making Dou Jialan feel relaxed both physically and mentally. Deputy Captain Zhang Nian whispered: "Your Excellency is weak, I'm afraid that these killers will..." Dou Jialan's face was grim, "They are courting their own death!" There were many soldiers in the village. When they saw a group of Jinyiwei coming in with murderous intent, they could not help but hide to the sides. It was as if a group of plague gods had arrived. "just in front." The sergeant leading the way pointed to the yard ahead and said. I hope you are well... Dou Jialan walked out of the courtyard gate, feeling a rare surge of anxiety in his heart. "…The art of war begins with the mind." A clear young voice was heard. Then came a rude voice, "Maocai, I don't understand the art of mind, can you please explain it in a simple way? Hehe, sorry for the offense, I will give you that... thank you gift later. If it is not enough, I will burn three incense sticks for you every day and pray for you..." "I'm not dead yet! There's no need to burn incense." The young man's voice came again, causing a burst of laughter, and then the young man said: "For example, two generals are facing a group of Japanese pirates. One of the generals is full of selfish thoughts, while the other general only wants to protect the country and the people and serve the Ming Dynasty. You tell me, just you, stand up." The general from before stood up and scratched his head, "Maocai." "Tell me how this battle ended for these two generals." The general was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized. "Oh! I understand." "A general whose head is full of selfish thoughts will certainly be afraid of fighting, and may even avoid it. On the other hand, a general who only wants to protect the country and the people will certainly lead the troops... But Maocai will never be defeated no matter what!" Most of the generals understood, but their faces did not look very good. At the beginning of the war, their minds were full of selfish thoughts and they just wanted to avoid fighting. Then they all nodded in agreement. They were frightened by the threat of the Japanese pirates' vicious reputation over the years. Seeing that most of the generals looked embarrassed, Jiang Qingzhi could not help but scold, "A bunch of fools. We won a great victory in this battle, which shows that those Japanese pirates also have a head and two hands, and they also fled. Do they have three heads and six arms?" "But..." The general laughed innocently, "But there is only one person like Maocai!"
"Yes! It's a pity that Maocai's family background is not good. If he had a backer, he would definitely be able to rise to prominence after this battle." "Damn it! There are few good people who get promoted by relying on backers." Jiang Qingzhi also learned to be vulgar and cursed: "I'll summarize it for you." In an instant, the sounds of various armors colliding and stools falling over could be heard. Dou Jialan heard various voices outside the door, and a picture appeared in his mind: a group of generals stood up and stood respectfully following the young man's voice. It was as if a martial arts teacher was giving a lesson. But there is no way a martial arts teacher can make his disciples so respectful, right? Jiang Qingzhi said: "Civil officials are not greedy for money, and military generals are not afraid of death... That's it, there is no point in talking to you about this. In a word, when two meet on a narrow road, the brave one wins. If you can do this, I dare say that the Japanese pirates in the future will be terrified by the name of the Ming warriors!" "When two brave men meet in a narrow road, the bravest one wins!" Dou Jialan whispered, "Whose family is this young man from? He actually made an army general bow down to him like a disciple." Behind him, the soldier said in surprise: "It's Jiang Maocai you're looking for!" Dou Jialan: “…” This morning, Zhang Mao came reluctantly and asked Jiang Qingzhi to give lectures to the generals, and brought a thank-you gift - one hundred taels of silver and a fat sheep. The money was confiscated by Jiang Qingzhi, and the fat sheep was taken. Dou Jialan knocked on the door himself, and heard the young man inside say unhappily: "I said that you must not disturb me unless it is an emergency. Do you want to be punished by military law?" The door opens. Sun Chonglou said dissatisfiedly: "You wait... Master, it's the Jinyiwei!" In an instant, all the generals in the yard turned around. Flying fish suit! Embroidered spring knife! The notorious Jinyiwei surrounded a centurion and stood outside the door. A momentum made the generals change color. Who are you here to arrest? Everyone avoided it. Jiang Qingzhi, who was standing on the stairs, was inadvertently exposed. Dou Jialan turned his eyes and looked at Jiang Qingzhi. He looked pale and weak. She was dressed in plain clothes, and her hair was only casually done, but she exuded a carefree aura, as if she was somewhat out of tune with this world... It's also like standing outside this world and watching with cold eyes. Dou Jialan came to the conclusion in an instant. This is the emperor's cousin. Dou Jialan asked calmly, "May I ask the young man's name?"
Are they here to arrest Jiang Maocai? Zhang Mao and others felt a tightness in their hearts. Wang Yu gritted his teeth, various thoughts flashed through his mind, and finally they were reduced to one thought: to speak up for Jiang Maocai! But Jiang Qingzhi was already confused. The notorious Jinyiwei came to find him. But I have nothing to do with them! By the way, at this time, the Jinyiwei was headed by Lu Bing, the foster brother of Emperor Jiajing. Could it be that the Ye family from Suzhou found them to wipe out the root of the problem? But with the Jiang family's wealth, it's impossible for the Jinyiwei to be interested in it, right? So, could it be that the original body had done something that angered the heavens and the people... In just a moment, Jiang Qingzhi became discouraged. But after all, he had experienced many ups and downs in his previous life, so he nodded. "I am Jiang Qingzhi from Suzhou!" Having said that, Jiang Qingzhi prepared to go on. Just catch it! Kill me, maybe I can come back. "Maocai!" The generals' faces turned red and they were extremely angry. But because of the Jinyiwei's fierce reputation, he dared not stop them. But he still glared at Dou Jialan. I saw this beautiful female captain of the Jinyiwei take a deep breath. Get down on one knee. Bow down. salute. Dozens of Jinyiwei behind him knelt down in unison. Bow down. salute. "Jinyiwei Captain Dou Jialan, on the orders of His Majesty, is here to welcome the young master back to the capital!" ……
