"Song Shenjun, Shan Shenjiang, Cai Guerrilla, Qu Guerrilla and others are here."
While Jia Heng and Fan Yi were talking, Dong Qian entered the official hall and spoke.
Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "Call them in."
Not long after, Song Yuan, Shan Ming, Cai Quan, and Qu Guang entered the official hall. They greeted Jia Heng and said, "I have met the commander-in-chief."
Jia Heng waved his hand and said: "Follow me to the back hall."
In the back hall, several people sat down again.
Jia Heng took the lead in looking at Song Yuan and asked: "Have all the new soldiers in the camp settled into the camp?"
Song Yuan said loudly: "There are five hundred people in one camp, and the twelve camp leaders have been settled in the barracks. There are also some family members who are now living in Nancheng."
Jia Heng nodded and said: "Recently, the imperial court will strictly regulate the Beijing camp and strictly order the new soldiers not to leave the camp. They will first conduct new operational training."
He didn't save face for the prince yesterday, so he would take the opportunity to attack Guoyong camp if he didn't know it. If the Guoyong camp was rectified first by using the method of "selecting fronts", these newly recruited young men would definitely be eliminated in a short time.
Eliminate.
"The method of selecting the vanguard, eliminating the old and the weak, seems to have a high-sounding reason, but in the end it is a dispute in front of the emperor. At that time, it is the time to make a complete political cut, but it still depends on Wang Ziteng's thoughts." Jia Heng thought.
For old relatives like Wang Ziteng, you can't just say you don't want to go with them as soon as you meet someone. No one outside will believe you, and even if you say it, they will think that the in-laws' family is putting on a show for outsiders.
However, if there is dissension due to the rectification of the Beijing camp, and then participate in the impeachment, this will be a political enemy competing for interests.
This is also the reason why Emperor Chongping urged Wang Ziteng to reorganize the capital camp as soon as possible and compete with the Four Kings and Eight Dukes.
"New style of conduct?" Cai Quan said with confusion and surprise.
Several other people also cast their gazes over, a little confused.
Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "These twelve battalions of new troops will be trained using new drills. In three days, I will issue the drill rules to you, and I will also personally enter the camp to train the soldiers."
The so-called new drills are all the border police training methods he learned in his previous life, including physical training, discipline training, formations, military appearance, and communication orders...
He has also learned the art of stabbing and fighting.
Jia Heng's eyes were deep and he thought: "In fact, even without firearms, I can still guarantee to train an elite force, but it is not as effective as firearms."
It was a coincidence that Jia Heng and the generals from Guo Yong camp were discussing military training.
In Yongyefang, at Wang Ziteng's house, Wang Ziteng was also discussing with several of his confidants about rectifying the capital camp.
"Commander, when will the election be held? Which battalion will it start from?" Pang Shili, the general of the Yangwei Battalion, looked at Wang Ziteng and said.
Wang Ziteng pondered: "After the snow melts, we will start to organize it. As for which camp to start with?"
I was hesitant for a while.
It feels like every camp is a tough one.
Li Xun, the governor of Yaowu Camp, flashed his eyes and said: "Commander, why don't you start with my camp?"
Fang Ji nodded and said with a smile: "Commander Jie, this can be done. The commander of Yaowu Camp, Zeng Ji, is a former general of King Zhao. He is extremely old. There has been a discussion in the court to change the commander. If Commander Jie takes over this camp first,
Establishing prestige can give you a good start; this is the strategy of making things easy first and then making things difficult later."
Wang Ziteng's face paused slightly and he said: "Zeng Ji has been keeping a low profile in recent years. At the beginning, he took the path of the Prince of Nan'an County and was able to keep his position as commander-in-chief."
After he returned to Beijing, he began to make secret preparations after being urged by the palace. However, as he got to know some of the leading generals of the 12th Regiment and Battalion, he already felt that there were many difficulties.
Yao Guang said in a deep voice: "I thought, how about we rectify it from the Guoyong camp first?"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of several people suddenly changed.
Fang Ji frowned and objected: "Guo Yong's camp has just wiped out the three auxiliary bandits. It is the time when we have gained the trust of the Holy One. Yao Shen decided that this proposal is not feasible."
Yao Guang argued: "The Guoyong camp has just won a good fortune, but most of the soldiers in the camp are refugees. They can't even get enough food. How can they survive the decline of the front selection? The situation is about to use this to deter the other camps, so as to
Commander Zhangjie has strict military discipline and does not show favoritism."
Hearing this, Wang Ziteng's expression changed and his eyes were gloomy, but he once again thought of the unruly young man outside Shenjing City, and said coldly: "Guo Yong's camp cannot be moved for the time being, let's ignore him for now."
No matter how much he gritted his teeth with hatred at this moment, it would be hard to take this opportunity to make another powerful enemy.
Moreover, the emperor had great faith in the boy. The last time he mentioned the refugee joining the army in a circumstantial way, there was no trace of it.
Fang Ji agreed: "Commander Jie is right. Now let's just pretend that the Guoyong Camp does not exist. As long as we train the rest of the regiments, Guoyong Camp will be conspicuous there."
Wang Ziteng nodded, convinced, and said: "My son will be born in a few days. Let me first send an invitation to the generals in the camps to test the tone. If you don't cooperate, we will make further arguments later!"
Li Xun smiled and said: "Commander Jie, that's what Jia Heng is like. He used the matter of checking the vacancies to threaten the generals in the camp. Why doesn't Commander Jie follow his old wisdom?"
When Wang Ziteng heard this, his heart moved and he asked, "What do you mean?"
This matter was indeed unknown to Wang Ziteng.
Li Xun laughed and said: "Before Jia Heng went on the expedition, in the name of ordering troops, he investigated the situation of the lieutenants and generals in the army who were not using their quotas. Therefore, the generals and generals were often intimidated and threatened by him, so they obeyed his orders and all obeyed!"
Wang Ziteng frowned and said: "But I heard that he has the Emperor's Sword, and he uses it to command the generals, and the soldiers dare not resist. How can I compare with him?"
Mentioning the Emperor's Sword, Wang Ziteng's feeling of frustration became stronger and stronger. Even though he was the governor of the Beijing Camp, he was not given the sword by the Emperor, but a child of the Jia family was so trusted!
Fang Ji said in a deep voice: "The Commander-in-Chief is a governor of the capital camp. He was ordered by the Holy One to build a palace and build a palace. He established a large banner and commanded the generals and soldiers of the twelve battalions. His authority is no less than that of the Emperor's Sword!"
As soon as he said this, Prince Tenghu's eyes sparkled, and some pride surged in his heart. He praised: "Mr. Fang's words are true. I have been ordered by the emperor to command the twelve regiments and camps. If they dare not obey, the military law
Engage!”
After deciding to check the vacancies, he looked at Yao Guang and ordered: "General Yao, you and your men will secretly check the vacancies of the troops in the capital."
Yao Guang showed a wry smile and said: "This matter is very secretive. My subordinates are short of manpower and it is difficult to investigate. Even among the handsome men in my Fenwu camp, I don't know how many vacancies there are among them."
Li Xun said: "I heard that Jia Heng got the surrender of the governor Qianshi Lu He, so he knew all the details. But Commander Jiet, don't worry. I don't dare to say that I know all the details about Yaowu camp's short quota, but I also know the money."
Whose pocket has it all gone into?”
"who?"
"Qi Cheng was sent to the Prince of Nan'an County by Zeng Ji. The daily necessities of the Prince of Nan'an County are extravagant. If you don't drink the blood of the soldiers, how can you maintain the dignity?" Li Xun said coldly.
When Wang Ziteng heard this, his face turned dark. He knew that the water was very deep here.
How could the old prince of Nan'an County be so restless?
Fang Ji thought for a while and said: "Jie Shuai, why not wait until the day when Commander Ji is born and see what these generals and commanders who have come to serve will say?"
Wang Ziteng looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "General Yao, go ahead and investigate secretly. If that doesn't work, then attack Zeng Ji's Yaowu camp first!"
Due to the urgency of Emperor Chongping's urging, Wang Ziteng could not care much for a while and could only go through one camp at a time.
At the same time, with the return of Jia Heng to the capital and his promotion, the news began to spread throughout the entire city of Shenjing, occasionally mixed with the news that the emperor was urging the prince to reorganize the capital camp. The storm was about to come, and the undercurrent was surging.
The civil servants who had been arguing endlessly over the shortcomings of the Salt Reform also began to turn their attention to the Beijing camp.
…
…
Rongguofu, Lixiangyuan
Zhou Rui's family received a message from Baozhu and a post for Aunt Xue in Rongqing Hall, so they took the post to find Aunt Xue.
Entering the side room, he smiled and said, "How is my concubine?"
Aunt Xue smiled and said: "Okay, why are you here?"
With that said, he asked Zhou Rui's family to sit down.
Zhou Rui's family said with a smile: "Grandma Dongfu Heng said that the plum blossoms in Huifang Garden are in bloom, and she invited the old lady, madam, and Grandma Lian to come over and have a look."
Aunt Xue received the post from Zhou Rui's family, turned to look at Baochai on the side, and said softly: "My dear, brother Dongfu Heng's daughter-in-law said that the plum blossoms in Huifang Garden are in bloom. Let's go and have a look in the afternoon.
?”
Because Xue Pan made such a fuss yesterday, Aunt Xue was always a little embarrassed to meet Jia Heng, the leader of the Jia clan.
Baochai put down the storybook of "Three Kingdoms" in his hand, raised his face as white as pear snow, and said with a chuckle: "I've sent someone to send you a message, let's go and have a look. I'm feeling really depressed at home.
"
They sent someone to call her, but if she didn't go, it would be like resenting yesterday's incident. Besides, she was also a little curious about what kind of stunning beauty this Grandma Heng was, who caused such a big commotion in Dongfu.
Aunt Xue smiled and said: "It's the same principle."
Suddenly he remembered something and called Xiangling: "Go and get the flowers in the box."
Xiangling responded, and soon turned around from the curtain, holding a wooden box in her hand.
Zhou Rui's family smiled and looked at Xiang Ling. He saw the girl's soft eyebrows with a rouge mark on her face. She couldn't help but be stunned and said in surprise: "This girl looks a bit like Grandma Dongfu Heng.
"
After saying that, I felt speechless.
If this word spreads to Dongfu, wouldn't it be disrespectful to compare someone's wife with a little girl?
When Aunt Xue heard this, the smile on her face froze and she asked in surprise: "What do you mean?"
Zhou Rui's family quickly laughed and said: "It doesn't look very similar. I was wrong. At first glance, her features are soft and weak."
Aunt Xue's doubts were gone, she took the pearl flowers and said with a smile: "These are the fresh gauze flowers made in the palace. They were delivered this morning. There are twelve branches in total. No one in our family wears them. No."
If you want to give it to the girls, give two to each of the three girls in your family, leave two to Grandma Dongfu Heng, give two to Miss Lin with the remaining four, and give two to Feng."
Zhou Rui's family said with a smile: "Why didn't Miss Bao leave two branches?"
Aunt Xue smiled and said, "Baby girl, she never loves these pink flowers."
Zhou Rui's family smiled and agreed.
The Zhou Rui family first went to explore the spring, welcome the spring, celebrate the spring, and Sister Feng divided the flowers among the four courtyards, and then took other flowers to the small courtyard where Daiyu was.
In Daiyu's house, due to the warmth of the earth dragon, a fragrant fragrance like orchid and musk deer spreads in the air.
At this moment, Zijuan was talking to Daiyu.
"Girl, Grandma Heng from Dongfu said that the plum blossoms are blooming in Huifang Garden and she wants everyone to go enjoy the plum blossoms. Do you want to go, girl?" Zijuan brewed a cup of cheese tea, which was steaming with aroma.
Daiyu is sitting behind a book at the moment. The girl is wearing a sea blue collar, moon white background, sapphire blue bamboo leaf print satin face-breasted jacket, a pink stand-up collar tunic, and a white background embroidered pleated skirt. She is holding a writing brush.
Eucalyptus writing.
Of course, he was writing a letter home. After hearing this, he stared at Zijuan and said in a charming voice: "Go and see, plum blossoms only bloom like this all year round."
Zijuan smiled, came forward and put down the tea, saying: "Then you will have to wear thicker clothes later, be careful not to catch a cold."
Daiyu said softly: "What are you wearing so thickly? It's so cold to death."
The smile on Zijuan's face froze for a moment. The girl was very angry today. Since the letter came from Yangzhou this morning, she said some weird things.
I have some guesses in my mind, but I'm not sure yet.
Zijuan tentatively said: "Uncle Heng hasn't been here for a long time, miss..."
Daiyu glanced at Zijuan with her smoky eyebrows and said angrily: "If it's so boring, he's been here just once, so it's hard for you to think about him every day."
Zijuan's heart moved and she thought to herself, Wan'er is indeed here.
Speaking of which, before leaving, Jia Heng called Daiyu, asked her about food and drink, helped write letters, helped deliver letters home, and dealt with Baoyu's disturbance.
However, when I came back yesterday, I didn't even say a word of greeting. Of course, there were things about Xue Pan and Jia Lian in between, as well as things about Aunt Xue, Baochai and others.
While eating, I glanced at Daiyu, but said nothing more after that.
Then, this morning, I received a letter from Nanbian'er. Her father, Lin Ruhai, told Daiyu not to worry about Yangzhou and to discuss matters with Jia Heng more often.
But where can Daiyu go to find someone to discuss with?
No one can be found.
Generally speaking, people who are used to being passive will not take the initiative to take any step except for emotional internal friction.
When it fell on Daiyu, she didn't even know why she was angry.
Although Zijuan now knew that it was because of Jia Heng, she couldn't figure out what Daiyu was thinking, so she couldn't persuade her blindly. She just lowered her eyes and said nothing, pretending to be deaf and dumb, and waited to see what would happen.
"This is a letter from daddy. I just came this morning. I will bring it to him in the afternoon." Sure enough, when Zijuan stopped talking, after a while, Daiyu couldn't hold back her anger, but she took the initiative to speak.
road.
The envelope was sealed, and she didn't know what was written inside.
Daiyu didn't know what she was fussing about at this moment. There was no reason for her fussing. Even though she had just met again yesterday, she didn't say a word.
Then, when I received this letter today, for some reason, I suddenly felt unhappy everywhere.
Zijuan said softly: "Uncle Heng is so busy every day. He just came back yesterday and encountered that incident again. He may not think of the girl at the moment. If the girl is worried about the incident in the south, wait
I'll take the initiative to discuss this with Uncle Heng, so that the girl won't be worried every day."
Daiyu said "hmm" and was speechless.
At this moment, Xueyan from outside came in and whispered: "Girl, sister Zijuan, my wife's companion Zhou Rui's family is here."
Zijuan responded and quickly went out to look around. She smiled at Zhou Rui's family and said, "The girl is inside."
Zhou Rui's family came into the side room, smiled and said hello to Daiyu first.
Then he said: "Miss Lin, Aunt Xue asked me to send flowers."
Daiyu's face paused slightly, she took the box of palace flowers and saw four branches. She picked up one and played with it, and asked curiously: "What kind of flower is this?"
Zhou Rui's family smiled and said: "It's a palace flower. Aunt Xue is doing business in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so I give it to her. It's not a good thing."
"Do other girls have these flowers, or is it just me?" Daiyu suddenly asked.
Zhou Rui's family smiled and said: "We have all the girls."
Daiyu chuckled lightly, threw the palace flowers into the box, and said: "I just know, others won't give it to me if they don't choose the rest."
Zhou Ruijia's smile froze and she didn't dare to speak for a while.
Zijuan pulled Zhou Rui's family member and walked aside, and said softly: "Sister Zhou, the girl has been feeling unwell and angry for the past two days. I'm complaining to you."
The member of Zhou Rui's family smiled bitterly and said: "There are two more flowers here for Grandma Dongfu Heng. Miss Lin picked the leftovers. The styles of these flowers are all the same."
Zijuan complained again and said softly: "Sister Zhou, please leave two flowers here."
Zhou Rui's family hurried over.
Zijuan turned around at this time, walked up to Daiyu, and said softly: "Girl, there are four branches of the flower. Let the girl pick it first. The remaining two branches are planned to be given to Grandma Heng.
"
Daiyu: "..."
Hearing that the last two branches were for Grandma Heng, I felt a little annoyed for a moment.
"It's true... I'm making trouble unreasonably." Daiyu said with a faint look and a dull look.
Zijuan sighed and said softly: "Girl, don't feel guilty. I'm depressed. I don't know why. I won't tell you until I meet Uncle Heng."
Daiyu's starry eyes lowered slightly and she sighed softly.
