Chapter 94 Domineering Early in the morning, Lu Wei was practicing boxing. Concubine Lu Jingfei once said that one does not need to be a capable relative by marriage, but one needs to be free of desires. The desirelessness here does not refer to ordinary desires. You can eat, drink, and play with women, but you cannot have political ambitions. Lu Wei once criticized his sister in his heart: Look at Cui Yuan, he was the relative of the previous emperor's previous emperor, now he is doing better than me, with unlimited glory. Look at me, the brother of the favorite concubine, I am doing as bad as a kitten. But no matter what, Lu Wei didn't dare to go against the wishes of his sister who had her own ideas and was very capable since childhood. In the morning, I would practice boxing, eat a hearty breakfast, and then go out for a walk. In the evening, I would make an appointment with someone, eat and drink, and play with women in a brothel... Days like this aren’t bad, are they? But when days are repeated too often, they become dull and boring. "The master did not go to the room of the newly bought beauty last night." "Tsk! You don't know this, do you?"
"Please advise me." Two servants were chatting nearby. "No matter how beautiful a woman is, if she does it every day..." the servant raised his eyebrows, "it's like touching her left hand with her right hand. How can she still have the interest?" "Oh! It's not fresh anymore." "No." The wealthy lifestyle that makes ordinary people envious and jealous seems unoriginal to the nobles. "master!" The steward is here. Lu Wei finished his training and felt that his skills had greatly improved. He couldn't help but feel very happy, "Speak." "Last night, a divine light descended from the sky over Prince Consort Cui's residence." What the hell! Lu Wei was stunned. "Old Cui is trying to make new buds grow on the old tree, and I am just trying to be as wild as a young man... Could it be that a remarkable child was born in the family?" "Then, there was a fire in Prince Consort Cui's study." The steward smiled evilly, "Master, Prince Consort Cui went to the palace early in the morning. He just came out with a pale face, ink marks all over his face, and a swollen forehead. He hurried back to the mansion. The door of Prince Consort Cui's mansion is now closed and no guests are allowed." "Tsk! Old Cui, oh Old Cui, you have finally come to this day?" Lu Wei was very happy. "The Queen asked me to be low-key back then, and I envied Cui Yuan's unlimited glory. Now it seems! The Queen is still far-sighted." "That's right. Our queen has had supernatural powers since she was young." The steward watched Lu Wei and his sister grow up, so he was qualified to say this, causing Lu Wei to point at him and say, "You, you." "The queen has given birth to a prince, what do we have to be afraid of?" The steward said with a smile, "By the way, sir, the manor has sent a lot of things, should the relatives send some as well?" "Of course I have to." Lu Wei thought for a moment, "It's almost the day of the Tiger Guards' drill. I'll send a gift today, and the first one will be to the Changwei Palace." The steward was startled, "The first one? Wouldn't it be too conspicuous?"
Lu Wei flexed his wrist and said, "I just want to let the people of the capital know the Lu family's attitude towards Chang Wei Bo." The steward suddenly covered his forehead and said, "I understand." The first gift from the Lu family was given to Jiang Qingzhi. To outsiders, this was ironclad evidence of the close relationship between King Jing and Jiang Qingzhi. Many times, wealth and honor can only be achieved through risk! …… The three hundred people came back. Looks miserable. The leading general apologized as soon as he returned. "I am incompetent." The generals were stunned, thinking that even if they failed, they shouldn't be so depressed, right? As the general spoke, everyone seemed to see a tragic picture. "…We just passed the corner of the mountain road, and I ordered people to be alert to places on the right where people could hide. But unexpectedly, Ye Bushou crawled out from the ground on the left side of the empty road, like a ghost…" Chen Ji led Ye Bu Shou to dig a pit on the left side of the empty road, and more than a hundred people hid in the pit. When the three hundred elite soldiers turned the corner, they habitually paid attention to the right side where they could hide. When the ambush on the left came suddenly, the three hundred elite soldiers were caught off guard. "They are fierce... They are not like my fellow Tiger Guards. They are fierce in swordsmanship, stronger, and more durable..." The general glanced at Jiang Qingzhi and said, "Brothers, I don't accept it." "Why are you dissatisfied?" Jiang Qingzhi asked. "Brothers said that it must be Lord Bo who practiced alone at night." The general hesitated, "Brothers also want to practice this way." "Three hundred people were defeated by more than a hundred people?" Zhu Xizhong found it unbelievable. The general lowered his head in frustration, "I led my men to retreat, and this journey...", his eyes flashed with fear, "Those bastards of Ye Bushou are like demons, and like maggots on the tarsal bone, they always appear from places we can't imagine... This journey is like half a lifetime for me." Everyone looked at Jiang Qingzhi and thought that their uncle had been practicing the night-time training recently, but no one took it seriously. Unexpectedly, he actually trained such a strong team. The night is not coming back. "Hello, uncle!" More than a hundred people were filled with murderous aura, yet they still looked energetic. However, the 300 elite soldiers on the side were now in low spirits. "My Tiger Guard Left Guard has finally taken shape." Jiang Qingzhi ordered: "Today the whole army will rest, slaughter pigs and sheep, except for those on duty, and no wine or meat will be allowed!" When the news spread, the whole army cheered. Jiang Qingzhi turned around and said to the generals: "The bowstring cannot be kept tight for long. The same is true for training soldiers. It should be relaxed and tensed alternately." "Yes." The generals accepted the advice.
Jiang Qingzhi turned and walked into the lobby, then suddenly turned back, "Why are you still following me?" The generals were embarrassed, and Zhu Xizhong said with a smile: "Qingzhi, how about another lesson?" Then, the sound of Jiang Qingzhi teaching could be heard in the hall. "...When two armies confront each other, or even when two countries confront each other, it is never a simple fight. From diplomacy, from food and fodder preparation, from the morale of the people, from the planning of the government..." Prince Yu came here secretly today without telling Prince Jing and the little girl. He stood outside the lobby and shook his head at the soldier guarding the gate, indicating that there was no need to report. When the sergeant saw Prince Yu turn around, the eunuch behind him took out a charcoal pencil and a brush, walked in front of Prince Yu, and bowed slightly. Prince Yu placed the paper on the eunuch's back, listened attentively, and then took notes... "…The way to fight a war is to gather information first. As the saying goes, knowing yourself and knowing your enemy will ensure victory in every battle. The asymmetric advantage of information can allow the side with the information advantage to gain a crushing advantage in the end when two evenly matched armies are at odds with each other." "...Scouts, also known as the Night Troops, are the most important part of an army. So I formed the Night Troops to prepare for seizing the initiative in future battles." "Uncle." "explain." "The spies from the grassland foreign tribes are also particularly vicious." Prince Yu raised his eyes, wanting to hear his uncle's response. Jiang Qingzhi chuckled from inside, "Haha!" Then he said: "When they encounter the Yebushou I trained, they only have one choice: either die or flee! Flee as far as you can." "Well said!" Prince Yu was at the age when he admired heroes, and his blood boiled when he heard these words. …… Exercise tomorrow. Yan Song asked someone to invite Lu Bing. "How is the training of the Tiger Guards' Left Guard going?" Lu Bing took a look and saw that Yan Shifan was not there. He shook his head and said, "Since that day, the Tiger Guards have been on high alert and there is no way to find out." "Even a good fighter from the Embroidered Uniform Guard isn't good enough?" Yan Song looked suspicious. Old dog... Lu Bing cursed inwardly, but said calmly: "Seven Jinyiwei were arrested for this. Jiang Qingzhi sent them to Jinyiwei and said that if they find any spies next time, they will be killed." "He was just threatening." Yan Song said with a smile. "You think I haven't tried?" Lu Bing gnashed his teeth and said, "The next day, three corpses were found outside the gate of my Jinyiwei!" …… Yan Shifan came in yawning, and when he came in he saw Lu Bing and Yan Song in silence. After finding out what happened, Yan Shifan said, "Anyone would be on high alert. Old Lu, if it were me, I would never send anyone to die."
"But we have no idea to what extent Jiang Qingzhi has trained the Huben Zuowei. How should we respond?" Lu Bing said. "In fact, you all forgot one thing." Yan Shifan and the other two looked at him before he said, "How was the exercise? Your Majesty, do you know how to judge it?" Lu Bing and Yan Song looked at each other and laughed. Yan Shifan rubbed the corner of his one-eyed eye and said, "Your Majesty is not familiar with the art of war, nor with the art of battle. Don't you just follow what those military heroes and warriors say?" "Yes!" Yan Song looked at his son lovingly, "Mobilize some people, pretend to be suspicious, and give a higher evaluation." "Your Majesty is extremely smart, but he loves to be suspicious. The more you pretend to be suspicious, the more your Majesty will wonder if the Tiger Guard Left Guard is just a figurehead." Lu Bing smiled. He sincerely praised: "Donglou is worthy of being the young elder." Yan Song was not ashamed, but proud. He stroked his beard and smiled, saying, "If this can be accomplished, I will have someone advise tomorrow that the Tiger Guards are not fit for purpose. All guards should train hard and not slack off." In a word: the purge of the guards failed. Then, everything remains the same. In this case, the generals in the army will inevitably feel favorable towards Yan Song's party and secretly hate the nosy Jiang Qingzhi. "This move is brilliant." Yan Shifan praised. The father and son smiled at each other. A gloomy look flashed across Lu Bing's eyes, and then he clapped his hands calmly and praised: "This move by Yuan Fu is extremely brilliant." On that day, the Taoist priest got up early and went to bed early, which was rare. On that day, Cui Yuan sent someone to pass a message to Yan Song. "The Prince Consort said that only by trampling Jiang Qingzhi into the mud can we vent our hatred." …… "The Tiger Guards' Left Guard will have their drill tomorrow." Lu Wei found himself a little nervous. After all, this was the first time that the Lu family tried to form an alliance with someone. In Lu Wei's view, if Jiang Qingzhi, an ally, succeeds in intervening in the army, he will have a bright future. If he fails, King Jing will lose the support of the army. …… "Madam San, the Tiger Guards will have a drill tomorrow." Xiang Jin entered the study. Mu Shu, who was reading a letter from his father, looked up and said, "I have asked Concubine Lu Jing to ask His Majesty to watch the battle tomorrow." Xiang Jin clasped his hands together and said, "Chang Wilbur is a good man. I hope he can make a big splash tomorrow." ……
The next day, early morning. Jiang Qingzhi had a big steamed bun for breakfast, a plate of meat and vegetables, and a bowl of soy milk. After eating, he felt the increasing vitality in this young body. "Uncle!" Fucheng and his servants lined up to see him off. "Such a big scene." Jiang Qingzhi smiled. Fu Cheng said solemnly: "Today is like going to war. I wish you good luck in military affairs!" The servants all said, "I wish you good luck in martial arts!" The atmosphere was electrifying. Jiang Qingzhi took a deep breath and looked up at the purple sky. "set off!" At the same time, Xiyuan. "Father, hurry up!" The eldest princess was dressed in men's clothes and stomped her feet outside the palace to urge them on. Emperor Jiajing came out, and after seeing his eldest daughter, his eyes softened. When he turned to his three sons, his face immediately became stern. "I have met my father." The prince took the lead in saluting. Emperor Jiajing nodded and asked them to stand up. Then he walked down the stairs first. He looked at the purple in the sky and whispered, "The Ming Dynasty has been dormant for too long. I have been dormant for too long. Qingzhi, don't let me down!" Behind him, the eunuch shouted: "Your Majesty, please go out!" …… Asking for votes. (End of this chapter)
