It would be great if this rain falls in the north!
In the lobby of the General Military Mansion, Chang Yu held a tea cup and looked at the pouring rain outside and couldn't help but sigh. There were Huang Degong, Lu Daqi and others beside him. Everyone had not dispersed after the luncheon, and they were drinking tea and discussing matters in the hall.
"Is there still a severe drought in the north?" Yuan Jixian asked, and Chang Yu nodded slightly: "It is slightly better than in previous years, but there is still insufficient rain."
"Now that things are getting better, God will be happy, and things will get better and better in the future." Lu Daqi stroked his beard and smiled lightly, and everyone looked at each other and smiled.
Chang Yu also laughed, stood up and walked to the door of the lobby: "Now the situation can only be said to be better for the time being. If the Tatars are unjust and the thieves are not eliminated, there will never be peace."
"With Lord Du Gong strategizing, those rogue Tatars are nothing more than grasshoppers after the autumn, and they won't be around for much longer." Ma Jinzhong, the king of flattery, said with a compliment. Chang Yu doesn't hate flatterers, or in other words, very few people do.
Flatterer: "We are no more than a mere commander. We have to work hard to defend our country, exterminate thieves and quell the chaos."
"It's raining at the wrong time." When everyone agreed with Chang Yu, Huang Degong walked to the entrance of the lobby and looked up at the sky and couldn't help but spat: "I've suffered so much."
This is the truth. Everyone didn't know what to say for a moment. Chang Yu patted him on the shoulder: "Sweat more on weekdays and bleed less in wartime."
Huang Degong tilted his head and glanced at Chang Yu: "Where did you get the words? They sound weird, but they make some sense."
Chang Yu burst out laughing, but the expressions on the faces of everyone behind him changed. This Huang Chuangzi was really rude, and there was no one who could talk to him in front of the big eunuch.
Several military generals hugged Chang Yu at the entrance of the lobby and looked at the pouring rain outside, complaining in various ways. Lu Daqi, Yuan Jixian and Xu Qiyuan in the hall were holding teacups and blowing on their faces with indifferent expressions. For civil servants, it was raining three times.
It was very artistic for the five of them to gather together and drink tea. Looking at the people standing at the door, the three of them had gentle smiles on their lips.
"Master Du Gong, Zuo Mengeng asks for an audience!"
At this moment, a soldier rushed over in a hurry. As soon as he finished speaking, all the civil and military faces in the hall changed, and they were all different and colorful.
Nowadays, the name Zuo Mengeng is a sensitive word.
As for the reason, everyone knows, why did the two old foxes come in such a hurry? Why did Huang Degong and Wang Tizhong come all the way with their troops? Why did the great eunuch and his Dongchang guards come? Why did Wang Yuncheng and Ma Jinzhong fight secretly?
What is the reason for the undercurrent in Wuchang City?
It’s all related to this name!
And everyone here knows how much the court and the eunuch want to kill his father and root him out!
But now he came uninvited, how brave he is.
What's this kid's plan?
"You are still young after all, you can't hold your breath," Lu Daqi shook his head slightly and looked at Yuan Jixian next to him and whispered.
Yuan Jixian smiled faintly: "With Liu Jingting by his side, how could he really lose his temper?"
Lu Daqi was startled and raised his eyebrows slightly: "Retreating in order to advance?"
"We'll find out after we take a look." Yuan Jixian stood up and looked outside the door. Chang Yu had already told Zuo Mengeng to come in.
Just as the two old foxes were muttering, Wang Yuncheng frowned and quietly exchanged glances with Ma Jinzhong. Even Wang Tizhong's expression was indescribable. Tu Yuan, who was talking to Wang Guangen, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Chang was the only one present whose expression remained unchanged.
Yu and Huang succeeded. They were still standing side by side at the entrance of the lobby, talking and looking at the heavy rain in the yard.
No one present knew that Chang Yu went to see Zuo Mengeng late last night. Even Wang Yuncheng was just doubtful and unsure, because in his understanding, if a powerful eunuch like Chang Yu wanted to see Zuo Mengeng, he would have to let him go.
He came over instead of going to the door in person. Secondly, although he had spies in the city, he did not dare to stare at Chang Yu and his party. The reason was too simple, because there were more spies from Dongchang and Jinyiwei in the city. If they were
If you find out that your people are following the eunuch, you're done for. You can't get away with it even if you jump into a shithole.
Just because I didn’t know that Chang Yu and Zuo Mengeng met, let alone what they said, Zuo Mengeng suddenly came to ask for a meeting today, which caused everyone to have various thoughts and speculations.
Zuo Menggeng, with a haggard face, stood in the hall in the rain and saluted Chang Yu: "I am humble, Zuo Menggeng pays homage to the Governor." The etiquette is thoughtful, neither humble nor overbearing.
Chang Yu smiled faintly and did not let him in immediately. Instead, he stared at him and asked: "General Zuo is not at home to observe his filial piety, why are you here?"
"Since ancient times, it is difficult to have both loyalty and filial piety. When the country is in crisis and the traitors are unjust, you should take it as your priority to share your worries, and come here to ask for help in humble positions." Zuo Menggeng spoke in just a few breaths, and his whole body was soaked. The people behind him were even more worried.
By playing the drum, is the eunuch establishing his authority? And his words made everyone frown even more.
Unexpectedly, Chang Yu said the next second: "I know it's great to help you take care of your worries, so come in and talk."
But even so, Zuo Mengeng had already become a drowned rat. However, his face was not what he should have been. He slowly walked into the lobby and bowed to Huang Degong: "Zuo Menggen has met Uncle Jingnan."
Huang Degong was startled: "Do you know me?"
Zuo Mengeng smiled faintly: "Who else can stand shoulder to shoulder with Lord Du Gong, besides Uncle Jingnan, who is so powerful!"
Huang Degong was startled for a second and then laughed loudly: "You flatter me so much, but you are a better person than your dead father."
...Everyone had three black lines on their foreheads. This guy's mouth is as good as your mother's at chatting. Even Chang Yu lowered his head and smiled bitterly.
However, Zuo Mengeng still had a faint smile on his face, and he went to greet Yuan Jixian and Lu Daqi. Then, under the introduction of Yuan Jixian, he greeted Xu Qiyuan, Wang Guangen, Wang Tizhong, Tu Yuan and others, and then greeted Ma Jinzhonghe.
Wang Yuncheng nodded slightly.
This was the first time they met after more than a month after the imperial court ordered to share the cake. The three of them had calm expressions, and outsiders had no idea what they were thinking in their hearts.
Everyone sat down again, and Chang Yu asked someone to bring a face cloth to wipe the rain off Zuo Mengeng's face, and poured him tea himself. This move made everyone more puzzled.
Zuo Mengeng's sudden visit was a surprise to them, and the eunuch's behavior was even more heart-wrenching.
The tea ceremony that followed was absolutely exciting, and some of it was really good to watch. Everyone was very excited and prepared to appreciate what bad idea Liu Jingting had given this boy from the Zuo family, and how the eunuch would deal with it, or how to deal with him.
.
However……
The picture they expected did not appear!
Zuo Mengeng went straight to the point and made a request that shocked everyone. He was going to quell the thief. He went to Bai Wang's old home, De'an, to quell the thief!
Although Baiwang was destroyed, the remaining evildoers continued, so Chang Yu stayed in the royal body to garrison Jiujiang, while Jin Shenghuan took charge of De'an to pursue the remaining evildoers.
However, De'an was deep in the mountains, and the thieves were very good at waging guerrilla warfare. Jin Shenghuan did not do much in De'an for several months, and then he was urgently transferred to Wuchang by Chang Yu.
Now that Zuo Menggeng actually proposed to go to De'an to suppress the bandits, everyone was absolutely shocked.
Because everyone knows that suppressing bandits is an excuse, and abstention is the real thing.
No more playing, no more fighting, no more taking away.
Zuo Liangyu, his biological father, waved away the foundation he had built in Wuchang. His departure was tantamount to giving up the struggle for power in Wuchang.
Well, the gecko cut off its tail to protect itself, that's cruel! Liu Jingting is really a first-rate strategist. Lu Daqi and Yuan Jixian looked at each other and smiled and shook their heads slightly, their faces full of admiration.
Wang Yuncheng and Ma Jinzhong also glanced at each other with surprise on their faces. They never dreamed that Zuo Mengeng would stop playing.
Should we say he is a prodigal, or should we say he is as wise as a fool?
It's just that he wants to leave. Is he going to leave? He won't play anymore. Will the chess player agree to let him go? After all, the dead old man Zuo is hated by the court. It won't be possible to dig out the corpse and whip it, but how can it be done?
Let you go away.
Everyone looked towards Chang Yu intentionally or unintentionally.
Chang Yu responded: "The De'an Mountain Green Water Show has great potential." Then he sighed: "Although the current situation is not in great chaos, it is really hateful that there are so many small gangs of thieves everywhere, causing chaos and chaos to the people's livelihood. When the order is sent to each place to crack down on bandits, we also take this opportunity to practice
Let’s train our troops.”
