Three hundred and thirtieth chapters do not show off
The army that the housekeeper saw was actually the White Army led by Zhong Jinwei. After several days of traveling, Datong Mansion was already in sight.
Gu Baichuan was beside Zhong Jinwei. Seeing that there were more and more people on the road approaching Datong Mansion, he smiled and said to Zhong Jinwei: "Master Marquis, you are really powerful. Let each of us carry money, plus some
The silver carried on empty horses, instead of being escorted by carts, is really fast! No, Datong Mansion is located a few miles ahead."
Because Zhong Jinwei was in a hurry and thought it was too slow to escort them by car, he came up with this method. Each cavalryman could carry dozens of kilograms of things, which would not slow down their marching speed much.
Hearing Gu Baichuan's boast, he felt a little proud in his heart. He turned to look at him and smiled, then turned back to the other side and said to Ma Xianglin: "This is actually the credit of the White Pole Army! Do you think, if it were replaced by
As for the Xuanfu Army, am I brave enough to let them carry it? One of them disappeared today and none will be seen tomorrow. Maybe by the time we get to Datong, I, the bachelor imperial envoy, will be the only one left!"
People around Zhong Jinwei laughed when they heard what he said was humorous. However, they also agreed with Zhong Jinwei's statement. If it weren't for the strict discipline of the Baigan Army and the Chieftain Army, all the relatives and friends of the family would be in the hands of Qin Liangyu.
Not necessarily someone would do something like run away with money on their back.
"Master Hou, thank you for the award." Ma Xianglin smiled and felt a little proud, but he immediately replied humbly.
"Haha, there's no need to be modest, everyone has eyes to see it." Zhong Jinwei said, reaching out and patting Ma Xianglin beside him, then turned back and looked forward.
He found a long row of large cars parked in front of him, occupying most of the official road. Now he saw the army passing by, and they were hurriedly moving the cars and trying to park as far as the roadside.
Zhong Jinwei did not want to disturb the people so much. His army was all cavalry. As long as there were not many people standing side by side, they had to give way.[
"One person goes over, so they don't have to move. Tell the brothers in front to reduce the number of people abreast, as long as they can pass." Zhong Jinwei casually ordered Li Laosi behind him.
"Yes, Lord Marquis." Li Laosi didn't care whether Zhong Jinwei saw it or not, he clasped his fists and responded, then he pinched the horse's belly and rushed out, heading forward.
"The Marquis really loves the people like his own children!" Ma Xianglin was praised by Zhong Jinwei just now, but now he seized the opportunity and returned the favor immediately.
"Haha, we are just carrying the reins, but they have to make a mess of things. Why not do this easy thing." Zhong Jinwei was a little embarrassed and explained to Ma Xianglin.
"Master Marquis, compared with you, we are really ashamed!" Gu Baichuan couldn't help but feel a little ashamed after hearing Zhong Jinwei's simple thoughts and expressed his true feelings.
At this time, ordinary officials did not sound the gong to clear the way, but showed full official power, and they were already considered people-friendly officials who thought about the people. People with Zhong Jinwei's thinking were rare.
Even if civilization has advanced hundreds of years later, there will still be few people with this kind of thinking.
A bigger official, as long as he has this authority to mobilize, he will do things like clearing the way for police cars and closing roads. Zhong Jinwei has encountered this many times. He is quite disgusted with such things, so he subconsciously avoids doing these things himself.
thing.
When Li Laosi rushed to the front of the team, Xie Dong, a member of the Jinyi Guard Qianhu, who was in front, just asked a school captain to go and drive away the people. The army was coming soon, but they were still blocking the road. Did they not want to live or what?
"The Marquis has an order not to disturb the people. The number of cavalry troops marching abreast is reduced to three." Li Laosi stopped the captain and then shouted the order.
When Xie Dong saw that it was the leader of the entourage of Marquis Zhongxing delivering the order, he habitually turned his head to look at the position of Marquis Zhongxing behind him. This was the first time he had encountered such a thing. This could be regarded as an official giving way to the people, not to mention the dignified Marquis of the court.
This is something that even their Jin Yiwei has never experienced.
However, military orders were never false, and he had no choice but to obey them, so he had no choice but to instruct his troops to act in accordance with the military orders.
As soon as Li Laosi saw that the number of cavalry and pawns at the front of the team had begun to shrink, he urged his horse forward and soon reached the front of the team.
He saw a group of people in fur coats approaching him in front of the motorcade with fearful expressions. Some of them reached into their sleeves to pull something out, while others seemed to be kneeling on the ground.
Li Laosi couldn't help but feel a little funny, and with all his strength, he said loudly: "Marquis Zhongxing has given an order, so you don't need to panic. You don't need to move the car. If the army is out of date, just don't panic." [
As soon as he finished speaking, he found that the group of people approaching him froze there.
I saw some people with astonished faces and their mouths gaping open. Some people had just retracted their hands that had been inserted into their sleeves, holding a few pieces of broken silver and hanging them in the air. Some people had their knees slightly bent,
Keep the posture of wanting to kneel but not kneeling.
Did you hear it right? The army surrenders to the people? Is this the legendary teacher of benevolence and righteousness? Similar thoughts appeared in the minds of the stewards.
At this time, a young man rushed over from the side and shouted to Li Laosi: "Excuse me, is this the Marquis Zhongxing who was in Zhangjiakou before?"
Li Laosi was looking at it interestingly. When he heard what someone said, he looked up and saw that he didn't recognize the person, but he replied loudly and proudly: "There is only one Zhongxing Marquis in the court. The Marquis was on official business in Zhangjiakou."
"No wonder, I told you, Zhongxing Hou is a good official who makes decisions for the people. Now you can see it." Wang Yan also proudly said to the housekeepers.
When Li Laosi saw this young man praising his Marquis, he couldn't help but feel a little fond of this young man. He nodded slightly, then took the reins, turned his horse's head back towards Marquis Zhongxing and resumed his life.
"Actually, I have already seen that this must be the army of Marquis Zhongxing. Did you see that the general army does not wear rattan armor and carries long white pole spears? Did you see that this is to arrest the treasonous businessmen in Zhangjiakou?
The Mongolian army is really mighty!" Wang Yan admired as he looked at Li Laosi's cavalry approaching them from the back.
Only then did the housekeepers come to their senses and began to praise each other in whispers. Even though some housekeepers had seen a lot of the world, they had never seen an army that loved the people so much.
Wang Yan looked at it for a while, then turned back and said quickly: "What are you doing here? Why don't you guys stop as soon as possible so as not to disturb the army and horses?"
The housekeepers were waking up from a dream and kept saying: "Yes, yes, yes." In just such a short moment, as if Wang Yan had become their leader, they followed Wang Yan's words and turned back to the direction of the car, giving orders to those who were accompanying them.
The man went to deliver the message.
When the army approached, they discovered that walking in front of the team was actually the Jin Yiwei in Feiyu uniform. At this time, they also obeyed the order of Zhongxing Hou and reduced the number to three cavalry to march abreast.
When Uncle Cai saw the eyes of a guard looking towards them, he felt nervous and knelt down. When the other stewards saw this, they also knelt down, otherwise they would be too conspicuous.
When Wang Yan saw them kneeling, he misunderstood them and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, you should kneel down. Marquis Zhongxing treats the people well and we should respect him for his kindness." After saying this, he also knelt down.
All of a sudden, everyone in the convoy knelt down, waiting for the cavalry to pass by.
After Zhong Jinwei finished his instructions, he forgot about the matter and chatted with the people around him while controlling the speed of his horse.
When he approached the long convoy, he found that all the people in the convoy were kneeling, which was a bit strange. So he reined in the horse in front of the convoy, stopped the horse, turned around and asked Li Lao Si: "Lao Si, you let them
Kneel down?"
Asking the people to kneel down to welcome him was against his original intention, and Zhong Jinwei was a little unhappy.
"No, I didn't ask them to kneel." Li Laosi saw a hint of blame in Zhong Jinwei's eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved, and hurriedly explained.
Wang Yan happened to be kneeling nearby and heard the answers from Zhong Jinwei and Li Laosi. He looked up and saw that it was the Marquis of Zhongxing whom he had met in Zhangjiakou. He quickly said: "Master Marquis, it is the common people who kneel voluntarily. No matter what this person is,
It’s the general’s business.”
Zhong Jinwei looked over and found that the young man looked familiar, but couldn't remember it, so he asked, "I think I've seen you before?"
Wang Yan was overjoyed when he heard this. He didn't expect that the dignified Marquis Zhongxing still had an impression of him as a commoner, so he hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, the Marquis has a really good memory. The common people stopped the Marquis in Zhangjiakou and kowtowed too much."
Having said this, Zhong Jinwei remembered that he was the young man who rushed out of a shop to kowtow to himself after catching Fan Yongdou in Zhangjiakou.
Zhong Jinwei laughed and said jokingly: "Why, I'm addicted to kneeling. I remember telling you that there is gold under a man's knees. Get up. There is no need to kneel."
Wang Yan didn't take it seriously after hearing this, and said with a silly smile: "The Marquis is a good official who can make decisions for the people and loves the people like his own son. It is appropriate for him to kneel down."
The housekeepers also echoed at this time: "Yes, yes, the Marquis is a good official!"
Zhong Jinwei shook his hand and said again: "Get up, there is no need to kneel anymore." After saying that, he looked up at the long list of cars, then lowered his head and said: "What is on your car? Where are all these cars going?
?”
Uncle Cai had never had a chance to talk to the big shot just now. Now he seized the opportunity to answer first: "Master Marquis, the car is filled with grain, and it is being transported to..."
Just when he answered this, Uncle Cai suddenly remembered that the Marquis in front of him was the one who captured Fan Yongdou. If he knew that they wanted to transport the goods to Zhangjiakou for trading to Fan Yongdou, would he have arrested them too and convicted Fan Yongdou of being an accomplice?
crime?
Thinking of this, he couldn't answer anymore, his face began to turn pale and his forehead began to sweat.
Zhong Jinwei listened to half of what he said and did not continue. It was a bit strange, so he asked: "Where should it be transported?"
Gu Baichuan was a shrewd man, and he saw that this man seemed to be talking about taboo things that he couldn't say out loud. What they couldn't say out loud was to catch rapists and criminals.
He urged his horse to take a step forward and shouted loudly: "Master Marquis, if you ask a question, answer it truthfully."
