The stars and moon outside the window are shining brightly, the clouds have gathered and the rain has dispersed...
Nestling in the man's broad arms, stroking his strong chest with her slender hands, Kinderman hesitated for a while before her throbbing subsided. Although such happiness made her taste good and addicted to it, she still couldn't help but said: "Lang
You are still young, so you should not indulge in things between men and women, otherwise you will damage your foundation and possibly your longevity."
The man around her not only makes her deeply in love, but also a supporter that she can rely on for the rest of her life. She wants to be long-lasting, but she doesn’t want him to die young because of his greed for happiness...
Fang Jun stretched out his hand to push aside her wet hair, revealing her snow-white and thin shoulders. He felt the unparalleled touch in his hands and said with a smile: "I am gifted and I should do my best to serve Her Majesty the Queen, even if I have to knock my bones and suck my marrow."
No matter what."
"Oh! You are such a thick-skinned person, you are not shy at all."
Kinderman's snow-white cheeks were as red as blood from shame. She was buried in the man's arms and did not dare to see anyone. She was so embarrassed that she hit the man's chest with her pink fist several times.
How can she resist such wolf-like words?
Fang Jun smiled and stroked her and asked, "Has Jin Famin ever been to Beijing?"
Kinderman leaned into Fang Jun's arms and found an increasingly comfortable position. He closed his eyes slightly, letting his skin touch her skin, and said softly: "I just entered the capital last night, and I left two thousand hualang with me outside the city.
Although there are not many in number, they are all warriors who are loyal to the Jin royal family and have strong combat power. They may not be enough for outdoor battles, but they can be used to launch surprise attacks at critical moments, so you can trust Lang Jun."
"Hwarang" is the imperial guard of the Kim royal family. It was originally commanded by Jin Deman's admirer Jin Yushin. Bang Jun launched the "Jinsheng Mutiny" and completely destroyed the foundation of the six tribes of Silla. The Kim royal family also suffered heavy losses.
No longer able to rule Silla, Jin Yuxin was also killed in battle.
Now, the "Hwarangs" who were scattered all over Silla were summoned by Jin Famin, and secretly arrived in Guanzhong via the "East Datang Company" business route by water and land, so that they could be driven by Fang Jun and prepare for emergencies...
Fang Jun said: "These men are either not needed, or they are needed to face the most elite Imperial Guards of the Tang Dynasty. Loss is inevitable... Aren't you afraid that they will all be lost in Chang'an and the whole army will be destroyed?"
This is almost the last bit of power that Kinderman can fully control. Once he dies in battle, he will have no ability to protect himself from now on.
It is extremely difficult for a woman living in a foreign country...
Her smooth face was pressed against the man's chest, and a strong and steady heartbeat could be heard in her ears. Kinderman closed her eyes and murmured like a dream: "Being in jail, it's like drifting with the tide, what can you do to protect yourself? Both of my sisters are committed to themselves.
Is there anything else you can’t bear to do with me? I just hope that you will take pity on us being in a foreign land and have no one to rely on, and can show you love and love and never let you down."
What else could Fang Jun say?
Whether these words are true or false, if a woman can do this, it is enough to gain his trust and love.
He immediately turned over and pressed Her Majesty the Queen under him. Hearing the woman's exclamations, he said, "Then let me serve Your Majesty well."
Kinderman's charming eyes were as silky as silk, and her hands were wrapped around her like a lotus root, and she bit her red lips.
Although her muscles and bones were weak, how could the majestic Queen of Silla be defeated without a fight?
*****
Just after Mao hour, when all the central government offices outside Chengtian Gate were on duty, Yuchi Gong came with a group of soldiers on horseback and rode straight to the gate of the Ministry of War.
The guard in front of the door came forward and smiled: "It turns out to be the Duke of E. May I ask why you are here..."
Before he finished speaking, he was kicked aside by Yu Chigong and strode into the Yamen. The accompanying soldiers guarded the door.
The yamen had just come on duty, and many officials were sitting in their respective rooms before they started working. They saw a commotion in the front hall. Yu Chigong, dressed in military uniform and wearing a helmet and armor, walked towards him with a black face and a sword on his waist, shouting noisily: "Zhang Xingcheng"
Where is it? If I don’t give you some clues today, do you think you don’t recognize the knife in my hand? Come out here!”
Oops, are feelings looking for trouble? The Ministry of War officials immediately became excited, their eyes were shining and they stretched their necks to watch the excitement.
Although Zhang Xingcheng had served as Minister of the Ministry of War for a long time, because the affairs of the Ministry were basically controlled by Cui Dunli and Guo Fushan, it was difficult for him to get involved. Regular operations such as personnel transfer and placement were not available at all, so there was no Zhang Xingcheng person in the Ministry of War.
Besides, with Fang Jun competing in front of him, who can take a liking to the "lucky" Zhang Xingcheng?
At this moment, not only was there no one to come to his rescue, but they were all holding back and waiting to see the joke...
Cui Dunli stood in front of the check-in window with a teacup in his hand, and took a slow sip of tea. He couldn't help but frown slightly as he watched Yu Chigong dashing all the way.
Behind him, Liu Shi, who was reporting to the ministry just now, also looked out the window and wondered: "When did Zhang Shangshu provoke this person?"
If it is said that the person most responsible for "being generous" in the court today is Fang Jun's well-known hammer, then before Fang Jun, this reputation was shared by Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong...
He is famous for his bad temper and refuses to give in when he is stubborn. Even His Majesty Li Er sometimes suffers from severe headaches.
Cui Dunli said with a smile: "Now that all the armies know the power of firearms, they are naturally eager for the firearms from the Foundry. However, the Foundry has been resuming work for a long time, but the firearms distributed to various armies are extremely limited. They have not been able to form an organizational structure and cannot be put into training and deployment. They
Can you not be in a hurry? Of course, the current situation is turbulent, and only those who have hidden plans and unwillingness will be eager to replenish their troops' combat strength. Duke Lu will be safe and indifferent. "
Who would be willing to step into this mess if they didn't want to seize power in the chaos and go further, fearing that others would avoid them?
Yuchi Gong's heart is clearly revealed...
Liu Shi was a little worried: "Among the firearms produced by the Foundry Bureau, seventy-eight out of ten were sent to the East Palace for Liuli. What should I do if Zhang Shangshu takes advantage of this?"
Cui Dunli turned his head, looked at this subordinate expressionlessly, and said calmly: "The most important thing for a man to stand in the world is a stance. When you choose your stance, you need to be firm and unswerving. Only in this way can you achieve a great career.
.As for which unit should be first equipped with firearms after they are produced, that is a matter for the Ministry of War. How can it be his turn to have Yu Chigong’s say?”
The head of the Liu family in Hedong has outstanding abilities, but his character is soft and his stance is not very firm. He needs to be beaten from time to time...
Liu Shi naturally understood the warning in Cui Dunli's words, and said with a wry smile: "The lower official has not wavered. It's just that although Yu Chigong can't control our ministry affairs, Zhang Shangshu can. After all, he is the chief officer of the Ministry of War."
It's a given that people have their reputations, so if they make too much noise, it won't look good.
Cui Dunli snorted coldly and said: "At that time, I will have a lawsuit with him, so you don't have to worry."
How could it be possible that he had no resentment against Zhang Xingcheng in his heart? Fang Jun was transferred. Regardless of his qualifications, ability, and status, he was the most suitable person to take over the post of Minister of War. But in the end, he was parachuted into a man who could only retreat and have no great ambitions.
He was naturally unhappy when the talented Zhang Xingcheng blocked the way.
When the official position reaches this level, wanting to go further is not only a matter of ability, but also a matter of opportunity. If you are blocked, it will be difficult to make an inch of progress in at least three to five years. It is even impossible to become one of the six departments in this life. For those who are dedicated to official career
Cui Dunli was full of resentment.
Therefore, as a descendant of Shandong, he followed Fang Jun closely and violated the orders of the Shandong family, which even caused his family to drift away from the Boling Cui family...
…
In the duty room, Zhang Xingcheng invited Yu Chigong to take a seat and said with a wry smile: "Why does the Duke of E have to come in person and cause a fuss? If you have anything to do, you can send someone to let him know. I will take care of it myself."
Fang Jun had military merit, and his title was the highest among the Dukes of the country. Therefore, he sat in the position of Minister of the Ministry of War. With his status, seniority and power, no one dared to be disrespectful.
But Zhang Xingcheng had no merit. He only stole the position of Minister of the Ministry of War because of his identity as a Shandong boy. Although he had great power, he was not strong enough after all. Facing a Zhenguan minister like Yu Chigong, he was a head short and did not dare to mess with him.
, even if people knock on the door noisily, they still swallow their anger.
I feel so aggrieved that even though I poured all the water into the Wei River, I still can't get it flowing smoothly, but I still have to force myself to smile...
Yuchi Gong didn't care about his mood at all. He slapped the table with his big hand like a cattail leaf fan, glared angrily, and shouted sternly: "Your Majesty has been back in Beijing for a long time, and it has been a long time since the Foundry Bureau resumed work. Why is it that my right guard is so late?"
Can't get replenishment of firearms? If the Guanlong incident happens again and we fail to deploy firearms in time, leading to the rampant thieves and His Majesty being in danger, will you, Zhang Xingcheng, bear this responsibility?"
This crime was so serious that Zhang Xingcheng was shocked and angry: "How could the Duke of E confuse right and wrong like this? I am just a minister of the Ministry of War, how can I influence the affairs of the court? If you come here today and have something to do, please let me know.
, you should do what you are expected to do, and please forgive me if you are unable to do so, but if you come to humiliate me, I will not accompany you."
Clay sculptures still have three parts of fire nature, not to mention he is a descendant of a noble family and the Minister of the Ministry of War?
Yuchi Gong had a dark face and nodded: "Okay, I'm not talking nonsense. Now that the foundry bureau has resumed work, the firearms required by the right marquis guard must be fully equipped within three days. Since the Eastern Expedition, my subordinates have suffered a lot of damage, and they have just been replenished.
Soldiers, but due to lack of firearms, they are unable to form a new army and train to prepare for war. Once His Majesty takes the blame, I cannot afford it. The responsibility must be on you."
Zhang Xingcheng laughed angrily, spread out his hands and said angrily: "The Duke of E is also a distinguished minister of the country and a veteran of the two dynasties. Do you really think that I hold the official position of Minister of the Ministry of War and that I alone have the final say in the Ministry of War? Isn't it true?
To tell you the truth, I have no idea how many firearms the Foundry produces in a day and which army the inventory is allocated to. Even if you complain to His Majesty, I will still say this."
It’s enough that I’ve been tortured all day long by these treacherous villains from the Ministry of War, and now I have to look at the faces of you generals who are in charge of the army. You can’t bully people like this, right?
Anyway, I don't want to lose face and don't care about embarrassment. If you want firearms, just go to court yourself.
I thought that this Minister of War was one of the six ministers, and was only one step away from joining the cabinet. Now I know that not only does he have no real power at all, but he is also a hard worker who takes the blame and gets scolded. If he had known that, why bother to fight for it?
