"My dear nephew, can you be more dignified when you enter the city?" Shi Zhongxin asked Yun Zheng in a low voice while avoiding Wen Yanbo.
"Uncle, it's not difficult to be prestigious. It's just my nephew's first time in Tokyo. If he gets too arrogant, will the officials be angry?" Although Yun Zheng plans to hang out with the martial artists in the future, there should be some
I still can't relax my vigilance.
Shi Zhongxin looked at the soldiers outside the military tent and sighed with nostalgia: "Among the generals, I am the only one who has ever seen the real warriors of the Song Dynasty. When our ancestors came in triumph from the east gate and went out from the west gate, the people in Tokyo City threw flowers.
Fruits were thrown, singing and dancing continued, the elders stopped the horses, and the younger ones held the wine, stretching for ten miles, the sound of fighting and fighting could not suppress the thundering cheers... What a glory... Nowadays, only the Donghua Gate roll call
Only those who have this honor...
My hair has turned gray when I want to see the army roam freely, but I can't find anyone who can live up to my expectations... Di Qing is arrogant and looks down on decadent families like us..."
Yun Zheng smiled and said: "It's simple. When I enter the city tomorrow, I will let the people of Tokyo see what a real son-in-law is. But I wonder if I am interested in leading the army into the city with my nephew?"
Shi Zhongxin said in surprise: "I'm so happy! If I can have this experience, my life will not be in vain."
Yun Zheng laughed heartily, took out the golden arrow given by the emperor from the table and threw it to Comrade Zhou: "Your Majesty has an order, take this arrow into Tokyo tomorrow.
The entire army is clad in armor, the war horses are covered with armor, the war elephants are painted, and additional war equipment is installed, the glory of Wu’s victorious army will amaze the world!”
Zhou Tong was overjoyed. After receiving the order arrow, he took the remaining nine military princes to prepare happily. They knew that there was a big problem between Yun Zheng and the civil servants, but it was none of their business and there was no need to worry about it.
As early as when they were in Guangnan, Yun Zheng had prepared a grand triumphal ceremony. Since they had a bad relationship with Wen Yanbo, they thought they had no chance to show it off. Unexpectedly, the general was now in a better mood and had to start the whole thing again.
, let these young people who dream of becoming famous all over the world revel.
Shi Zhongxin took Yun Zheng's hand in surprise and said: "If we can see the warrior again in Tokyo, I will die in peace."
Yun Zheng dragged Shi Zhongxin's hand and left the handsome tent, but did not invite Wen Yanbo. This made Wen Yanbo lose his face again. He found that Yun Zheng was really ignoring him now.
"Uncle, your Majesty's military parade is very particular. It can't just be Wu Shengjun performing a one-man show, but also the cooperation of talents from all walks of life. For example, the commentators in the crowd are indispensable. The people of the Song Dynasty have never seen real warriors. They need
Only if some knowledgeable people tell them about it will they understand. Only in this way can the martial arts spread."
"My dear nephew, we have plenty of people, but how to talk about it, let alone other people, I don't understand."
"..."
"Speak quickly, I'm so worried."
"Fortunately, my nephew has written some rhetoric. All you need to do is find someone to explain to the crowd according to these rhetoric. These people also need to know the meaning of various flags. I think we have a lot of such people, right?"
Shi Zhongxin glanced at the piece of paper handed over by Yun Zheng. It was all written in small regular script. The old man opened his eyes hard under the bright sun and didn't want to miss a single word.
"My dear nephew, please don't laugh when I tell you something. I'm wondering if I can get those juniors who have signed up to join the Wu Sheng Army to join in? For no other reason than to show my face in front of His Majesty, as long as this is done.
, everyone in the general family will accept your love."
Yun Zheng looked at the embarrassed old man and smiled and said: "Since they are on the roster of Wu Shengjun, they naturally need to return to the team. Monkey, go over there and check the roster. Those who do not arrive at three quarters of noon will be dealt with according to military law!"
Shi Zhongxin was shocked when he heard the words "martial law". How Yun Zheng killed people in Guangnan and Jiaozhi has been spread all over Tokyo. It is said that rivers of blood are not enough to describe. If his nephew committed a crime,
If you fail the military law, you might really be beheaded, so he quickly said: "They are all here, they are all here, there is no shortage of anyone."
When Wen Yanbo walked out of the commander's tent, he found that the originally silent military camp was already boiling. It seemed that every one of the ten thousand people in the army of 1,500 who had been detained by Yu Jing's request had been mobilized.
Lang Tanjing was bare-chested and was applying paint on the elephant with a colored pen. A huge green ghost face had appeared on the elephant's head. Groups of soldiers, guided by various flags, stood in the open space into nine giant shapes.
There was a phalanx, and the neighing of war horses was everywhere along the river. The cavalry was washing the horses, and specially pulled the manes of the horses into buns...
After the Marquis's lecture, the soldiers went back to their tents and took out their armors and wiped them carefully. They seemed to really intend to show their faces in front of the people of Tokyo.
Wen Yanbo laughed and said to himself: "Let's make trouble, let's make trouble. After tomorrow, there will be no chance."
Zhao Zhen, who was in the palace, looked at the secret fold in his hand and closed it with a chuckle. Chen Lin took the fold and locked it in a red lacquer box and continued to sit opposite the emperor without leaving. He knew that the emperor would definitely have something to say.
of.
"You said Yun Zheng and Wen Yanbo had a falling out. Is it true or false?"
"True! Even if it is false, it has become true now."
Zhao Zhen asked interestingly: "How can you see it?"
"Old slave has met a lot of people in these years, including all kinds of outstanding young people, but this is the first time for old slave to meet someone like Yun Zheng.
Young people all have a common problem, that is, they are arrogant because of their talents. Yun Zheng is almost the first among young people, and the problem of arrogance will become more prominent. Your Majesty, please don’t think that some young people are humble and self-possessed and do not have this problem.
On the contrary, the more such a person is, the more proud they are.
Yunzheng made great contributions to the Song Dynasty. This time, His Majesty made him a marquis in one fell swoop. There were many jealous people. The reason why people like Pang Ji, Han Qi, and Wen Yanbo remained calm was because Yunzheng's achievements were enough to match this.
title.
But those people have a problem. They like to polish hard stones before using them. This is also the tradition of civil servants. They have forgotten that Master Yunzheng is famous. Even if his mentor, a wise man from the mountains, is not counted, Mr. Peng Li alone is enough.
Yun Zheng's starting point is much higher than others. He is a high-achieving person and is top-notch in both civil and military fields. What's more, he has made unparalleled achievements in his youth. Huo Qubing is nothing more than that. You only need to think about Huo Qubing.
Whatever his temperament is, you will know who Yun Zheng is.
Concubine Shu's past history was investigated very clearly by veterans. Although she knew Yun Zheng and lived in the Yun family for a period of time when she was wandering abroad, she was nominally living in Su Xun's family.
I learned how to handle some business affairs at the Yun family, and it was said that it was very effective. That period was a disaster for Empress Shu, and it was also the turning point in Empress Shu's fate. She followed her father's instructions and wanted to become the most noble person in the country.
This is not surprising for a woman. In Yi Laonu's opinion, after she gives birth to Prince Xu, she will become the most noble woman in the world sooner or later. To achieve this goal through her own son, no one has anything to say. Mother
The value of having a child has been the same in ancient and modern times."
Zhao Zhen smiled and said: "I understand what you mean. Are you saying that for a person like Yun Zheng, dragging him into the harem is actually the biggest insult to him? Pang Ji and the others used the suspicion of Concubine Shu to be a melon field and plum blossom.
Yunzheng, it seems that you have chosen the wrong path."
Chen Lin said with a smile: "That's right. Once a person, especially a hero, becomes a relative, it will be the biggest blow to him. What's more, there is suspicion of being under the melon field. It would be strange if Yun Zheng was not furious.
His Majesty rejected the questions of those ministers. At this point, His Majesty had no responsibility, but pushed those ministers into an embarrassing situation, which made Yun Zheng even more angry! Poor person like him, don't be affected by this blow
It’s better to be discouraged.”
Zhao Zhen frowned and said, "Concubine Shu has been wronged this time. After all, her reputation has been damaged."
Chen Lin laughed loudly and said: "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu is your concubine. She deserves to be broken into pieces for the sake of the foundation of the Song Dynasty. What's more, as long as you are sure that Concubine Shu is innocent, the empress will not be wronged."
Zhao Zhen pretended to be angry and said: "Of course I am sure! You are the only old slave who dares to say anything wrong about Concubine Shu in front of me."
Chen Lin thought for a while and said: "Shi Zhongxin insisted on asking for the mission to reward the three armies from His Majesty. I don't know what his plan was. Did he want to drag Yun Zheng into the generals? They only have wealth and no real power.
It is impossible for a proud man like Yun Zheng to mix with them."
Zhao Zhen chuckled and said, "I really want to see how Yun Zheng fights back, and how Pang Ji and the others respond. I can predict that the court will be very lively in the future."
Chen Lin nodded and said: "The essence of the emperor's art lies in the word balance, and your majesty has already mastered its samadhi."
Seeing that the officials were chatting happily with their ancestors, Zou Tong slowly stepped forward to report: "Your Majesty, Wu Sheng's army is ready. Yun Zheng sent an envoy to report. Tomorrow at Yinshi, he will enter the city from Zhuque Gate to invite your Majesty to review."
Zhao Zhen looked at Yun Zheng's memorial and laughed: "Tomorrow at Yinshi, I will go to Jinmingchi to see how elite Wu Shengjun is! According to my decree, tomorrow the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will go to Jinmingchi to review Wu Shengjun!"
As the emperor's order was issued, the people from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division quickly spread the news throughout the city that the officials were going to review Wu Sheng's army. Tokyo City always reviews various armies, and the people have long been used to it, but this time is different.
People from the Military and Horse Division of the Five Cities repeatedly warned the people that Wu Sheng's army was different from the armies that had been inspected in the past. They were not allowed to approach or use obscene words, otherwise they would be in danger. This was a powerful army that was truly fought out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
Unable to be provoked, he would kill someone in anger.
These words were actually taught by Yun Zheng to Shi Zhongxin. The Five Cities Military and Horse Division has always been in the hands of nobles. Shi Zhongxin himself is the Commander-in-Chief of the Central City Military and Horse Division and the only Commander-in-Chief who can mobilize troops and horses, so he passed on this message
Talking is very convenient.
The people of Tokyo City are proud and do not believe in evil. How dare an army of thieves run wild in Tokyo City? So I plan to go there tomorrow to see if that army dares to kill me. Many libertines are ready to spit on them.
