"It's not a defense, it's a general. -< >./-< >./" Wu Jie said. There are many more garrison officers than general officers, and it is a military position with real power. In fact, the military system of the Ming Dynasty was a bit chaotic. The border army, the garrison, the five-army governor's office, and the local garrison all had different establishments. People who were not part of the system could not tell the difference at all.
Wu Jiexin bought this large courtyard, and the number of people in the family suddenly increased, and for a while he could not find a useful servant. The quality of the concierges also varies greatly, which is frustrating.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Wu Jie¡¯s status did not go unnoticed, he was a seventh-ranking official in the prime minister¡¯s family, and in the Ming Dynasty, he was respected in literature and in military affairs. In addition, Li Chengliang was now just a small general, no wonder he was looked down upon by his own disciples.
Wu Jie felt a little strange about Li Chengliang's attitude. On the surface, it seems that it is a great kindness for me to transfer him from a place like Liaodong, which is a place where birds can't shit, to a rich place like Shanxi. But he knew that Li Chengliang's subsequent success was due to his work in Liaodong.
Now that I¡¯m being transferred to Shanxi, I¡¯m afraid there won¡¯t be any chance of getting ahead. The country has lost a strong man, and Li Chengliang has lost his future. It is inevitable that Wu Jie feels a little guilty.
But in order to be able to contain the Jurchens in the future, and for the sake of his own descendants, Wu Jie had to do this.
At the moment, I didn¡¯t want to see Li Chengliang anymore, so I went straight back to the study.
Seeing Wu Jie coming home, the family was naturally overjoyed.
After chatting with Mozi for a while and playing with his son and daughter for a long time, Lian Laosan came in cautiously and said, "Master, this villain is guilty. Please punish him according to family law."
As he was about to kneel down, Wu Jie had always had the temperament to help his relatives without asking for help. He quickly put down his daughter in his arms, helped him up, and said with a smile: "Don't be like this when you are old, you are an old man in the house. Wu I have never looked down upon you as a person. In my mind, you are Uncle Lian. I just offended a general, so let him kneel down."
Wu Jie didn¡¯t take Li Chengliang¡¯s matter to heart either. He didn't plan to meet him either, and planned to send someone over to send him away later.
Lian Laosan's eyes were slightly red: "The big boss said this, the villain can't bear it."
Mozi also smiled and said: "Uncle Lian, why are you like this? The barbarian named Li is at fault for this. You can't be blamed. Besides, no one asked him to kneel down. He knelt down in the flower hall for a whole day, and no one asked him to." Unstoppable."
"Li Chengliang wants to kneel on his own?" Wu Jie asked curiously.
Mozi: "Why not? The Liaodong people keep saying that they want to meet the grace minister and apologize in person. If they don't meet the master, they will kneel and die there." She covered her mouth and laughed softly: "The concierge said that the master is here. Xiyuan was on duty and had not returned home for some days. But Li Chengliang didn¡¯t believe it and said that the New Year was coming soon. How could Enxiang not come back? Huh, Enxiang, the eldest master is not a cabinet minister. Isn¡¯t this nonsense? Well, what will happen if others listen to it?"
Speaking of which. Mozi asked with some expectancy: "Will the master be on duty after the Chinese New Year when he returns home this time?"
Wu Jie: "I'm afraid it won't work. I'm busy with official duties, so Long Live only allowed me one night's leave. I have to go to Xiyuan early tomorrow morning!"
Mozi suddenly became depressed: "I didn't even ask you to spend New Year's Eve at home. This long live master is really unkind. Forget it, the master is a person who does big things, so Mozi went to bring Sister Tang with him. It¡¯s getting lively and lively.¡±
Wu Jiedie nodded and comforted her a few times guiltily, then turned back and asked Lian Laosan: "Old Lian, how did you get into trouble with Li Chengliang?"
Lian Laosan was a little embarrassed and said calmly: "Actually, it has nothing to do with the officer named Li. It was his soldiers who saw me boxing and made sarcastic comments next to me. I taught him a lesson."
Before Lian Lao San could finish speaking, Mozi smiled and said, "Master, please don't embarrass Uncle Lian. He can't even give you words. Chang Pu knows this best."
The calamus is the moth¡¯s personal maid, with sharp teeth and a sharp mouth.
She was originally the old man of this house, and she used to serve Zhao Wenhua¡¯s wife.
After Zhao Wenhua¡¯s home was ransacked. They were all taken into custody together.
When Wu Jie bought this yard, it was because there were too few people in his family and the place was large. For the purpose of doing good deeds, he redeemed more than 20 young, hard-working servants who were not related to Zhao Wenhua, giving them a way to survive and avoid being charged into the Jiaofang Department.
This calamus has grown up in Zhao Wenhua¡¯s house since he was a child, and he knows very well the rules of the house of dignitaries and nobles. Not willing to be a rough girl, she somehow endeared herself to the moth after entering the yard.
After all, Mozi doesn¡¯t know much about the details of this big yard, so he thinks this calamus is considerate to use.
Seeing that his eldest boss asked him to reply, Chang Pu felt a little proud at the moment, so he added more and more jealously: "Replying to the eldest boss, this Liaodong man surnamed Li is very rude. I heard that he has been supported by the eldest boss. This time I come here Come on, you have to understand some rules. If you are celebrating the New Year, Bingjing is indispensable. The cabinet level is 3,000 taels and upwards, the six ministers are about 3,000 taels, and the ministers and ministers are 2,000 taels. The eldest master is the same after all. A bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, someone who is close to the emperor, must move closer to the elders of the cabinet no matter what."
Seeing how tacky she said it, Wu Jie snorted: "Can this kind of thing be discussed?"
Chang Pu quickly apologized and said: "It's just that this guy surnamed Li doesn't understand this. Instead, he got more than a dozen baskets of things that are not compatible with Si Liu. There are pickles, dried fish, walnuts, etc., as well as flying dragons and hash toads. It¡¯s scary to look at, but where can I eat it? There are hundreds of kilograms of dried deer meat, wild boar meat, and pheasant. Savages are savages, who cares about these things!¡±
Wu Jie became more energetic. As a foodie, he was very interested in these things: "That's a good feeling. There are game and moths. Cook some for me later."
The moth covered his mouth again and laughed softly: "You don't know about the little calamus hooves, but the master really cares about these things."
Calamus stuck out her tongue: "How could this slave know?"
This sticking out tongue looks very cute, and Wu Jie doesn¡¯t want to blame this little girl anymore.
Seeing that the eldest master did not pursue the matter, Chang Pu suddenly became a little presumptuous: "The concierges saw that he was doing something shabby and probably couldn't get his door bag, so they just threw the things out and said that the eldest master was not here and asked him to come back another day." She said. But he knows that these days, the number of people visiting the great master's place is like a river of crucian carp, and it is a bit more lively than when Zhao Wenhua was here before. She didn't know what kind of official Wu Jie was, but he was probably taller and more prestigious than Mr. Zhao. These days. The concierges were so merciless in accepting door packages that they all made a fortune. Li Chengliang is so shabby, so naturally he can't look good.
"But here Li Chengliang just refused to give up and came here every day. He stayed in the flower hall to guard, saying that he had to thank the master in person, so he came here to guard every day. He also brought a dozen soldiers with him, chattering inside. Damn, he doesn't understand any rules. Uncle Lian likes to punch hard every morning and night, and his boxing set is slow. Somehow, the group of people saw it, made sarcastic remarks, and went up to fight with Uncle Lian. Apart from being arrogant, they don't have any skills, and Uncle Lian knocked them down with just three punches and two kicks."
"Later, Li Chengliang came out and fought Uncle Lian again, but there was no winner."
"Then, after knowing that Uncle Lian is your most trusted disciple, Li Chengliang led his men to kneel in the flower hall and said that he wanted to apologize to the great master in person. Now, he has even more reasons to stay in our house. "Calamus was indignant.
Wu Jie was surprised. He knew Lian Laosan's abilities, especially after he became a master of Tai Chi, he had many opponents. In today's world, I am afraid that only Qi Hu and Yu Long can compete with him, and not even Huang Jin can beat him.
I never expected that Li Chengliang¡¯s martial arts skills were so strong. This guy was indeed a famous warrior in the middle and late Ming Dynasty.
Wu Jie couldn't help but ask Lian Laosan: "Old Lian, how about Li Chengliang's martial arts skills? Can he be tied with you?"
Lian Laosan was a little embarrassed, but he still answered honestly: "Li Chengliang's martial arts is a bit strange. He likes to use his legs and has the characteristics of northern martial arts. However, his swipes are more unrestrained than northern martial arts. He is powerful and heavy. , although it is an outer sect skill, it has moved from the outside to the inside. It is considered the pinnacle of the outer sect. In fact, he and I both had a hand at that time. If we really let go and fight twenty or thirty moves inside, there is nothing he can do. However, His martial arts skills are really good, and he has practiced killing skills on the battlefield."
Wu Jiedie nodded: "I see, but even so, Li Chengliang's martial arts skills are still outstanding in the world."
After saying that he would not discuss the matter, he asked Lian Laosan to go down quickly and ask Guizhi to arrange food. He would enter Xiyuan early tomorrow morning, and he didn¡¯t know when he would be able to come out. I have to go out to meet a few important people in the evening, and I don't have time to waste on an irrelevant person like Li Chengliang.
He sent someone out to send Li Chengliang away, saying that he had returned home but was busy with official duties and could not spare time to meet with him. The gift given has been received, and the intention has been received. As for the holiday between Li Chengliang's soldiers and Lian Laosan, it's just a competition of martial arts, so it doesn't matter. Let Li Chengliang go to Shanxi to take up a post on his own, and he must not disappoint the court's expectations.
Not to mention, the game Li Chengliang sent was really good, and Wu Jie kept applauding after eating it.
The family has reunited for the New Year ahead of schedule.
After finishing the meal, Wu Jie ordered someone to prepare the sedan chair, changed into casual clothes, quietly walked out of the back door, and went to Shuisheng's place first.
Logically speaking, water?? is Wu Jie's disciple, there is no reason for him to visit Shui Sheng.
But time is urgent, and I heard that Shui Sheng is on duty these days and can't get away. The matter is urgent and he can't take care of so much.
Just a few steps out of the yard, Lian Laosan, who was outside the sedan, whispered at the window: "The eldest master has a tail, there are about six or seven people, and his martial arts seems to be pretty good."
Wu Jie's heart tightened: "Ignore them, keep walking, and find a way to get rid of the tail."
"Don't worry."
The sedan wheeled around in the alley for a long time, and finally shook off those tails.
We arrived at the place where the aquatic guards were on duty.
Shui Sheng was shocked when he saw his master. Before he could come up and kneel down, Wu Jie pulled him up and said, "Shui Sheng, time is running out. Let's cut off the long story. I'll tell you one sentence."
Shui Sheng: "My eldest brother, just tell me, Shui Sheng will go up to the mountain of swords and down to the sea of ??fire, no matter how hard he dies."
Wu Jie said solemnly: "In the past few days, the situation in the court has changed drastically. Please be careful. If there is any change here in the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, immediately lead troops to Xiyuan to pick me out. Yes. Now, how many people can you mobilize?"
Shui Sheng: "We can also mobilize around three hundred people."
Wu Jie: "Okay, that's it, let's go."
After saying that, without any nonsense, he turned around and left, preparing to go to Prince Yu's Mansion.
As soon as he came out, Lian Laosan came to report again: the tail was following again. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
