Li Jun went out for a while and did not return until Wanli and Zhu Youxiao had dinner to report.

"Long live the Lord, the children have inquired about some information." As he said that, Li Jun glanced at Zhu Youxiao who was eating obediently next to him. His eyes were a little strange. He also noticed the word "nephew" added by Zhu Youxiao just now.

"Say." Wanli swallowed a piece of meat jerky served by Concubine Zheng and ordered casually.

"Yes, long live the Lord." Li Jun cleared his throat: "Yu Xujiang had a son at an old age. He passed away in the Gengchen year (the eighth year of Wanli), leaving only a child over ten years old, named Yu Zigao. This Yu Zi

Although Gao is not as good as his father, he still has the true inheritance, and his martial arts skills are unrivaled. He just passed the martial arts examination last year. Because of his father's achievements, he attacked the guards and commanded the general affairs, and managed the army in Haitan (today's Pingtan). Now he has just taken office.

.”

"Qi Wuyi was younger than Yu Xujiang. He died in the year of Dinghai (the fifteenth year of Wanli), but he did not live as long as Yu Xujiang. He died at the age of sixty. Several of his sons had occupied some official positions due to their merits, but they did not learn

He has some of my father's skills, but one of his nephews, Qi Jin, has been fighting on the battlefield since he was a child. He is a ruthless warrior and has almost learned about 70% of his uncle's skills. He is currently ill in his hometown of Dingyuan, Anhui Province." As he said that, Li Jun continued

He glanced at Zhu Youxiao, his eyes were indescribably weird, but Zhu Youxiao pretended not to see anything and just ate his meal.

"You are all summoned to the palace to be my grandson's martial arts instructor." Wanli pondered for a while and felt there was nothing wrong with it, so he asked the eunuch next to him to draft the seal. To Wanli, these were just two generals and officers.

, it’s no big deal, if your grandson likes it, just summon him.

But this has a completely different meaning to Zhu Youxiao. It is the beginning of his dream and the cornerstone for training his trusted army. Yu Long Qihu's ability is self-evident. In this era, it is almost as powerful as a nuclear bomb. As a

Their successors, Yu Zigao and Qi Jin, are not much worse.

"I hope you won't disappoint me!" With a smile on his face, Zhu Youxiao began to think about his plan. He planned to thoroughly practice the saying that political power comes from the barrel of a gun, and the best

The way is to go inside the military and start from within. The reforms he plans to make in the future must be supported by the troops he has always trusted absolutely.

Only a general who can control the army has always been able to firmly control the army, and he, Zhu Youxiao, planned to be the marshal of the world's soldiers and horses.

"Haha, haven't I followed the old path of Zhengde?" Zhu Youxiao laughed, thinking of Zhu Houzhao, the famous Zhengde emperor in the history of the Ming Dynasty. "But my ambition is not something that a Wuzong can encompass."

Ming Shengzu is the temple title that Zhu Youxiao wants most, and his confidence lies in the complicated modern information in his mind.

"But I can only do this." Thinking about the information in his mind, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but sigh. There was very little information about the Ming Dynasty in those materials, only a few articles, and the rest were basically scientific and technological information and

Some strange texts and almost no major historical materials.

The only ones he had, combined with his own memory and used them, resulted in the current situation, in exchange for two people, Qi Jin and Yu Zigao. And the reason why he went to watch the selection competition this year was to ask Wanli for help.

He learned martial arts because he knew from the only historical data that next year would be the capital inspection, and all the courtiers were preparing, and no one came back to pay attention to his little moves.

As for why not next year? Next year is the year of Beijing Cha. Once Beijing Cha starts, many things will not be so easy to operate. By then, Wanli will probably not be in the mood to care about his little things, but will pay full attention to Jing Cha.

.No matter how indifferent Wanli is, he still has to pay attention to the situation in the imperial court.

"From now on, I can only rely on myself." Zhu Youxiao looked at the blue sky and white clouds silently: "Oh, by the way, there are also those things about the Ming Dynasty. With this book, I will feel a lot more relaxed."

Zhu Youxiao's prediction was correct. Regarding Wanli's summons of two generals and officers, none of the civil servants took any action, not even the usual words of advice. Next year will be the year of the imperial inspection, and everyone is preparing.

Everything is for power.

Although to the court, Wanli's edict was just a small matter, but to the parties involved, it was a huge matter.

It's like people are sitting at home, disaster falls from the sky, oh no, pies fall from the sky. Of course, for people who don't know, this is disaster.

In Dingyuan, Anhui Province, where the imperial edict first arrived, Qi Jin was living leisurely in his old house. Since General Wu Song resigned, he had been staying in his old house to recuperate. However, the state affairs were difficult, especially in Liaodong, where chaos was gradually rising.

The barbarians are constantly annexing and growing, but the princes of the imperial court are turning a blind eye, and the emperor is indifferent and is letting things go their own way.

How could all of this not worry Qi Jin, who was deeply influenced by Qi Jiguang? As a military general, he had a much deeper understanding of the combat power of the Ming Dynasty's army than those civil servants sitting in high halls. He really knew what the current military was like.

How bad it is. But there is nothing he can do. He is just a small general soldier and cannot have the slightest influence on the political situation. He can only think that when his health is better, he will ask himself to go out and serve for the imperial court.

Ming Dynasty will do its best.

However, the appearance of an imperial edict completely changed his fate.

"What, Ren Donggong's martial arts instruction?" Looking at the imperial edict in front of him, Qi Jin's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

When he first received the imperial edict, Qi Jin was excited. He thought that the imperial court was paying more attention to border affairs and was going to use them, veterans in Wubian, Liaodong. He was so excited that he didn't even care about his own poor health and planned to help the Ming Dynasty.

The country is dedicated to the whole country.

However, reality poured cold water on him. What the hell is the Eastern Palace Martial Arts Teaching? Qi Jin, as the heir to the famous marshal Qi Jiguang, has a high level of education, but he never figured out what kind of official position this was.

"My father-in-law, I wonder what the official position of the East Palace Martial Arts Instructor is?" Qi Jin smiled with a smile on his face and stuffed a letter of silver in his hand. Qi Jin not only obtained the true inheritance of his uncle in military affairs, but also in this aspect.

After weighing the weight of the silver in his hand, the eunuch's face looked better. Those who can be sent to other provinces to deliver orders are not related. Who wants to go to live in the open, especially if there is no mission, just a gift?

According to the imperial edict. Now there is some progress, but at least the trip is not in vain.

Therefore, the eunuch also said to Qi Jin in a friendly manner: "General Qi, the Zajia family is not very clear. I only heard that this seems to be the intention of His Highness the Emperor Taisun. No matter how many Zajia people know. Okay, Mr. Qi

Now that the order has been accepted, the Za family will return home."

"Don't worry, father-in-law. I'll prepare some wine for you in this poor house. Please give me a favor." Qi General Bing, who knew the true story of Qi Jiguang, could not let the eunuch go like this. He immediately suppressed the doubts in his heart and began to entertain.

The eunuch didn't refuse. He came all the way here and didn't take anything to eat. How could he be worthy of himself?

When the eunuch who conveyed the order to Qi Jin returned to the capital after eating and drinking, the eunuch who went to Fujian to convey the order was still running hard on the road. His distance was twice as long as that of the previous one. Waiting for the other party to return to the capital.

, he almost arrived at Haitan, Fujian (now Pingtan).

"Hey, with this shabby door lintel, it seems that the Zajia family's trip was in vain." After looking up at the front of the mansion, the eunuch had a look of unlucky look on his face, as did the two armored guards who came with him.

You're running in vain, and you probably won't get anything.

"East Palace Martial Arts Instructions." After Yu Zigao received the imperial edict, he was also confused like Qi Jin, but his life experience was more bumpy than Qi Jin's, and the city was a little deeper. He quietly pushed it with a calm face.

He passed by with a small bag of silver.

After the eunuch squeezed the silver taels in his hand, his expression immediately changed, as if he was about to get furious. He only had three taels of silver and was sending the beggar away!

Seeing this, Yu Zigao looked bitter and added more, but this still failed to satisfy the eunuch. And Yu Zigao could not give more. His father did not have as smooth an official career as Qi Jiguang.

He died early, and he was not good at managing things, so there was no way he could have more money to offer to the emperor.

"That's it, that's all, it's bad luck for the Za family, Yu Zigao, this is the intention of His Highness the Grandson of the East Palace. His Highness the Grandson is in a hurry. Remember to set off for the capital immediately. Let's go!" With a flick of his robe sleeves, the eunuch led two strong men.

Some left angrily.

"Run to the capital!" Upon hearing these words, Yu Zigao's face turned even more bitter. He looked like an old farmer who had been working all year round in the mountains and valleys of Fujian. He looked a little bit like the son of the first person to inherit martial arts.

Yu Zigao had no choice but to suffer. He had just won the martial arts examination last year, and then traveled thousands of miles back from the capital. Now he had only been in office for a few months, and things in the government had only begun to take shape, so he had to leave everything behind and rush to the capital again.

Capital, where are the travel expenses?

However, you have to go to the capital without travel expenses. Military generals are no better than civilian officials. How dare you try to resist the imperial edict? Fortunately, this time I am going to Beijing for official business, and there are inns where I can stay along the way, which reduces a large part of the expenses.

However, this is still not something that the Yu family, which is now somewhat dilapidated, can bear.

Not to mention that Yu Zigao is arranging for the victory with a grimace, our General Qi is much more leisurely, his family has a lot of money, and he has the help of his uncles and brothers. He is also a third-grade high-ranking official who retired from the position of General Soldier Wu Song.

He was much richer than Yu Zigao, and the distance was so close that the hardships he endured were much less.

However, Qi Jin did not stay at home and wait for Yu Zigao to go north. Instead, he rushed to the capital to inquire about the news. This strange imperial edict made him feel uneasy no matter how he read it. There had never been such a thing in the Ming Dynasty.

Letting a military general serve as the official of the East Palace, although it is only a temporary official title with no rank, no rank, no name and no distinction, it is enough to make countless civil servants jealous.

How many people wanted to get in touch with the East Palace but never had a chance. How could such a good opportunity come to these two reckless men? However, when they found out that this was the martial arts teacher they were looking for for His Highness Taisun, these civil servants felt doubtful in their hearts.

To balance it out. There is no other reason. I don’t know how long it will take until the grandson ascends the throne.

Although His Majesty looks fat, he is in good health and still has about ten years to live. Although the Prince is frail and sick, he is still young and has about ten years to live. This is twenty years. Twenty years from now, who knows what the grandson will still be?

Not a great-grandson. Even a great-grandson is still a great-grandson, but the investment cycle of twenty years means that the return time is too late. Even if two old officers in their 40s and 50s are on the line, it will be of no use.

This is the thinking of most civil servants. Twenty years later, those who are qualified to stand in line will either die or retire, so why should they care about the grandson who is not the grandson? Therefore, although our great grandson is favored, but
Chapter completed!
