The Jingxi General's Mansion of the Qing Dynasty was located near Hongjue Temple on the east side of South Street in Xining City.
Hongjue Temple, once named Hongjue Temple by Emperor Yongle of the former Ming Dynasty, was the largest temple in Xining at that time.
Nowadays, due to the rise of Kumbum Monastery and Youning Monastery, Hongjue Temple has declined and become a subordinate temple of Labrang Monastery.
Surrounded by Zhang Sheng and others, Yuzhu mounted his horse again and formally led his army into the city.
After entering the city, Yuzhu noticed that the two long streets corresponding to the four city gates intersected in the center of the city, forming a cross-shaped structure.
Among them, there are many shops on both sides of Dongmen Street, and Han and Hu merchants with different appearances and costumes shuttle among them.
The moment he passed the two mighty stone lions in front of the General's Mansion, the subtle feeling of being able to wield the power of hundreds of miles came to Yu Shuai's mind again.
Hey, Kangxi ruled the capital, and his ministers were in charge of Xining. The feeling of being surrounded by subordinates as far as the eye could see was really wonderful!
In this Xining Acropolis where military and political affairs were integrated, Yuzhu, as General of Jingxi, was the undivided Tu Emperor.
To put it bluntly, Commander Yu can decide the life, death, honor and disgrace of everyone in this city with just one word!
The General's Mansion is composed of three large courtyards with five entrances in a row. After entering the Yimen, there are the lobby, second hall and third hall.
The third hall, also known as the Jieshuai Hall, is where Yuzhu works daily. Within the third hall, it is the residence of the family members, and outsiders are not allowed to enter.
Naturally, Yuzhu moved into the main room of the main courtyard, Cao Chun lived in the east wing next to him, and Xingrui and Hongmei occupied the east and west wings.
Liu Kan and Wendena were respectively placed in the official mansion attached to the general's mansion.
Yuzhu changed into casual clothes and just sat down to drink tea when Cao Chun came.
"Sir, are you tired? Can I help you rub your shoulders?" Cao Chun knelt down to salute and glanced at the jade pillar with his eyes full of eyes.
Yuzhu was extremely satisfied with Cao Chun's gentleness.
However, Yuzhu also understands the temperament of the little fox, who is always attentive to anything and will either commit adultery or steal!
When Cao Chun kneaded Yuzhu until she felt comfortable, Yuzhu asked her slowly, "What's the matter?"
Cao Chun waved his hand gently, and the maids in the room retreated one after another.
"Sir, I think I want to invite the doctor to come and take a look." Cao Chun leaned close to Yuzhu's ear, with rosy cheeks, and whispered an amazing news.
Yuzhu was slightly stunned, and then said with a happy smile: "Yes?"
"Well, I haven't changed my bath for three months." Cao Chun lowered his head, feeling shy and embarrassed.
Yuzhu laughed, took Cao Chun into his arms, and said with a smile: "It's better if you don't change it, it's better if you don't change it."
Baptizer is the name for a woman’s menstruation at this time.
Although Cao Chun's appearance is not as good as Xiuyun's, he is extraordinarily gentle and gentle towards Yuzhu, and he is daring to do anything.
The rules around Yuzhu are very strict. When there are people guarding the door, no one dares to break in without permission.
Cao Chun leaned into Yuzhu's arms and said in a tired voice: "Master, you have to give me lots of delicious food."
Yuzhu pursed his lips and smiled. The most endearing thing about Cao Chun is that he never pretends to be pretentious, and he can definitely satisfy any request he makes.
After the best gynecologist in Xining City was invited, the good news immediately spread in the general's mansion: the general's wife was pregnant!
When she heard that Cao Chun was pregnant, Hongmei, who had never been undressed, immediately smiled slightly. Her chance was finally coming.
The mistress was pregnant and would definitely not be able to serve the pillow. So that night, Hongmei was arranged to serve.
Hongmei is the reddest girl next to Li Si'er, so red that it turns purple.
However, Yuzhu had deliberately left her alone before and never touched her body.
The reason is actually very simple. Yuzhu knows very well that Hongmei is too cunning. If he spoils her, he will be in trouble.
Hongmei is also very powerful. She has been ignored by Yuzhu for so long, but she has never complained to anyone.
During dinner, all the civil and military officials in Xining gathered together in Hongbin Tower to entertain Yuzhu, his immediate superior.
When a person is in an officialdom, he cannot help himself.
Yuzhu, who had just arrived, had to give face to his subordinates, so he went to the banquet in person.
Xining is located in the northwest, and the local specialties are mainly meat.
Hand-caught mutton, dried flat fish, deep-fried clams, lamb tripe in clear soup, egg-white cordyceps chicken, steamed eggs with nostoc, beef with salsa, all kinds of local specialties filled a large table.
Among them, the dish that Yuzhu is most satisfied with is the beef with sauce. When you eat it, it is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The meat is fragrant and the aftertaste is still there.
After asking Zhang Sheng, Yuzhu knew how to do it.
Sand-filled beef uses beef or mutton and eggs as the main ingredients. When making it, beat the egg liquid and mix it well, spread it into egg skin, mince the beef and make it into meat filling. First, spread a layer of egg cake, put the beef filling,
Cover it with a layer of egg skin, cut it into small pieces, and fry it in a pan.
When we met for a drink for the first time, no one was familiar with Yuzhu's temper and character, and no one dared to get close to him.
However, when the show was about to end, Zhang Sheng took advantage of the fact that he was Han Yuan's younger brother and had an old relationship with Yuzhu, so he had the courage to approach Yuzhu's ear and whispered: "To be honest with you, Marshal Yu, the Qing Dynasty in this city is...
In the Yin Pavilion, all kinds of nobles from the Western Regions are quite interesting."
This is a ladder being handed over.
If Yuzhu is interested, the next event will be at Qingyin Pavilion.
Yuzhu shook his head slightly and whispered: "To be honest, brother, I don't like that one, really."
In Han Yuan's letter, he once mentioned that Yuzhu did not love Concubine, so Zhang Sheng added: "It is particularly popular in the official Bian's house in this city to beat the horse and hang her."
Yuzhu's eyes flashed slightly, hey, his subordinates were rushing to give him money.
The immediate superior and his subordinates are gambling and playing together. Who dares to win Yuzhu’s money?
No matter what era, subordinates who play cards and gamble with their superiors always have their pockets full of money, ready to lose.
The more you lose, the happier your boss will be and the more likely you are to be promoted.
After having had enough wine and food, Yuzhu returned to the general's mansion in a sedan chair with eight carriages.
In the east wing of Hongmei, there are lanterns and colored candles.
Yuzhu entered Hongmei's house smelling of alcohol.
"Sir, can I help you soak your feet?" Hongmei suppressed the joy in her heart and made a suggestion that satisfied Yuzhu.
After the ripe red plum became Yuzhu's woman, she showed an astonishing charm as water.
It is definitely not the fake name of an island country female artist, Yuzhu is sure of it.
In today's general's mansion, although Cao Chun is a serious general's wife, she is not a serious mistress of Xingrui and Hongmei.
The situation suddenly became delicate.
Although Cao Chun can take care of Xingrui and Hongmei, he is not as righteous as Xiuyun. After all, they are separated by a room.
On the morning of the second day, at Mao hour, the golden drum in front of the general's mansion was beating loudly.
Military generals stationed abroad have to come to the general's mansion every day to order Mao.
After the three-way drum sounded, Wendner, the pen-sticker of the General's Mansion, held the roster in his hand and began to call the names.
Because Wendner was calling the general's name, no matter whose name was called, he had to go out of duty, face Yuzhu's desk, and salute.
In the Qing Dynasty, wherever there was military control, military rules were extremely strict.
If a general loses his authority and his subordinates are disobedient when the battle comes, how can he not lose the battle?
After the roll call, Yuzhu, wearing a first-grade official uniform, slowly came out of the back hall.
As soon as Yuzhu showed up, Wujiang, who was close to him, shouted loudly: "Shuai Yu is here!"
"Please greet me, Marshal Yu." Everyone in the lobby, including Zhang Sheng, all went down and paid their respects respectfully.
Yuzhu stood in front of the handsome chair, raised his hand slightly, and said lightly: "That's all."
"嗻." The subordinates sang loudly together, and then stood up one after another and lined up on both sides.
Yuzhu sat down and took a look, and couldn't help but smile. In this hall, the officers of the Eight Banners of Manchuria and Mongolia were standing on the left side, and the officers of the Green Battalion were standing on the right side.
As for the rural soldiers officers of the volunteer camp, they could only stand in the open space outside the hall.
The rules of the imperial court are greater than heaven, and the distinction between officials and people is also as different as heaven and earth.
Zhang Sheng didn't want to say it was difficult when he was promoted to court on the first day of the General's Mansion. However, it was indeed difficult.
The daily rations and salaries for those stationed at the Eight Banners were distributed on a normal monthly basis.
Successive generals would not dare to deduct the bannermen's hard-core crops. At most, they could add more sand or less sand to the lumi.
However, after the previous general was transferred, it took almost five months for Yuzhu to take office.
As a result, the pension matters for the dozen Eight Banners soldiers who died in Gasnur have been delayed.
In the past few months, the families of the fallen soldiers have been able to survive by relying on the money collected by the bureaucracy every month.
Nowadays, the families of the fallen soldiers have exhausted their financial resources due to funeral arrangements. They can only shed tears every day, and they really can't put it off any longer.
Therefore, Zhang Sheng had no choice but to bite the bullet and report the matter to Yuzhu immediately.
Yuzhu left the flowery world of the capital and came to Xining, a small border town, to endure hardships. What was his purpose?
In a word, seize military power with all your heart!
The core of gaining military power is to cultivate a large number of trusted generals.
During military training at the small station, Yuan Weiting trained the three heroes of dragon, tiger and dog.
Dragon, Wang Shizhen; Tiger, Duan Qirui; Dog, Feng Guozhang.
Someone made a big joke and actually included Zhang Zuolin and listed him as the Four Beiyang Heroes.
Marshal Zhang was an outright bandit and had little connection with the Beiyang New Army.
General Yuzhu and all the officers looked at him extremely nervously, couldn't help but smile, and said decisively: "As long as the soldiers died in battle, regardless of the bannermen, they will be compensated with three hundred taels of silver."
The food, salary and benefits received by the Eight Banners soldiers and the Green Camp soldiers were several times different.
This is a rule set by the imperial court, and the jade pillar cannot be changed.
However, the court has no hard and fast regulations regarding the pension benefits for those killed in battle. The pension standards vary from place to place.
This is evident from the fact that the Qing government deliberately acted like a hooligan, giving preferential treatment to the living and useful officers and soldiers, while treating the fallen soldiers particularly poorly.
Yuzhu's statement immediately won the hearts of many people.
Zhang Sheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said loudly: "Shuai Yu is kind and merciful. I humbled myself and replaced my subordinates. I thank you for your great kindness." He took the initiative to go out and Zha Qian saluted.
"Thank you, Marshal Yu, for your great kindness." All the officers in the hall, regardless of the bannermen, sincerely expressed their gratitude.
