Reincarnation of the powerful minister

Chapter 422 Said You Are His Righteous Sister

"No, absolutely not!"

Sure enough, as soon as he wanted to go to Bazhou, he was firmly opposed by Zhu Helin.

Su Yan insisted again and again, Zhu Helin was annoyed, pointed at him and said loudly: "It's not that I don't worry about your sister-in-law, nor is it to stop you from saving her, but I want you to weigh yourself! A scholar with great power, still wants to save people from the city captured by the rebel army? Isn’t this a meat bun beating a dog?”

This remark was too impolite, Su Yan was also a little annoyed, and retorted: "What's the matter with the scholar? Did I, the scholar, guard Yan'an City? Did I, the scholar, destroy the Wei family? Did I, the scholar, uproot the Vacuum Sect?" Started? I went to the battlefield with the Jingbei Army, did I drag anyone’s hind legs? Even if I was surrounded by heavy soldiers, I can retreat completely, so why look down on me! Also, I will hear from you again in the future With the words 'I have no strength to restrain a chicken', I'll throw a brick at your face!"

When Zhu Helin got along with Su Yan, he was well versed in the way that one trades off the other. When the other party was guilty and contradictory, he took advantage of the opportunity to take it down. Seeing the other party's fury now, he naturally gave up.He still had the airs of an emperor on his face, and he replied dully: "You dare! Besides, I'm not the only one who said that, so why just turn my face off...you said that yourself."

Su Yan plausibly said: "I say that I'm 'powerless', which is self-deprecating; others say that I am a personal attack!"

The double standard left Zhu Helin speechless, and said angrily: "If you can't do it, you can't do it. Gao Shuo can bring a team of Tiqi to rescue your sister, and you just stay in the capital and wait. I will send another person to investigate at King Yu's side. You are not allowed to go. If you have the ability, you resist the order and see if you can fly out of the city wall!"

In a fit of anger, Su Yan wanted to let the cat tickle him, but Lihua didn't cooperate, so she twisted back and threw herself at his chest, making him almost smoke from his orifices.

The tough way won't work, so Su Yan started to adopt a gentle policy, took a deep breath, and said in a gentle voice: "He Lin, I know you are doing it for my own good..."

"Don't, don't!" Zhu Helin stretched out his hand vigilantly to signal him to stop, "Even if it's broken, I won't allow you to take risks alone. It's okay to have Jing Hong chasing after you, but now he--by the way, you were a while ago It seems that he said what did he do?"

Su Yan said: "I asked Ah Zhui to go out of Beijing to do business."

"What are you doing?"

Su Yan answered vaguely: "Ah Zhui is going fast for running errands."

Zhu Helin didn't care much about the whereabouts of Jing Hongchai. Su Yan didn't want to say, so he didn't continue to ask, but was thinking about something that had been planned in his heart for a long time.

"Didn't we agree before that we should send an additional admiral to command the Xuanfu and Liaodong Jingqi who were transferred? Now that this frontier army has arrived in the capital, it can go to the battlefield at any time to wipe out the Wang's rebellious army. However, this admiral's military affairs It's hard to find generals," Zhu Helin said.

"No way, there are many famous generals, and there are always talents who are not inferior to the servants and General Qi." Su Yan searched hard in his mind to see if he could dig out a few more famous futures in the world.

Zhu Helin smiled but said, "Yu Chezhi nominated a few, but I'm not very satisfied. I have another candidate in my mind."

"Who does the emperor prefer?"

"This person's name is—" Zhu Helin casually wrote two words on the paper on the table, "Mu Xun."

...Who is this buddy?Never heard of it.Su Yan stared blankly at Zhu Helin, saw the sly gleam in his eyes, and suddenly realized: Put the rainwater from "Lin" next to the trees and turn it into "Mu"; Became "Xun". Isn't "Mu Xun" the reverse of the word "He Lin"?

This is to give my alias the title of admiral of military affairs, a disguised imperial conquest!

While admiring Emperor Xiaozhu's unrestrained imagination, Su Yan shook his head in ridicule: "No, absolutely not!"

"Qinghe, I know you're doing it for my own good." Zhu Helin said meanderingly with his sleeves in his hands.

"It's useless to slap me in the face with my words. At present, there are internal and external troubles, and all forces are eyeing the capital. As an emperor, how can you leave the palace so easily?"

"It's true that these tigers are eyeing tigers, but these tigers are just tools, and the people who raise them behind them never show their faces. Since the chess player is so scheming and cautious, I might as well create a good opportunity for him to be empty. If he doesn't enter the capital again, be careful." It was overthrown by those vassal kings who were just about to move."

Su Yan immediately understood Zhu Helin's train of thought, this is to sing an anti-empty city strategy, please enter the urn.The risk of this plan is no less than that of him who has no hands... Bah, it is a brave and resourceful scholar who broke into the Bazhou captured by the rebel army alone.

Zhu Helin put his hand on Su Yan's shoulder, bewitchingly said: "Going to Bazhou, there is 'General Mu Xun' escorting you, which will keep you safe. You go to rescue my sister, and he goes to capture and kill the Wang brothers. It's the best of both worlds, right? .”

It makes sense, I was speechless.

After thinking about it, Su Yan figured out two reasons - first, double standards are wrong, if he can take risks, so can others.Second, Zhu Helin is full of adventurous spirit in his bones. If he really understands and supports him, he shouldn't obliterate this quality.

Zhu Helin watched the subtle expression on Su Yan's face, and saw that the corners of his brows and eyes gradually showed approval, and a wave of enthusiasm and joy swept through his heart: I knew that Qinghe would understand me!Maybe he is the only one in the whole world who would not regard my behavior of leaving Beijing to fight under a pseudonym as absurd and willful...

"But I have a proviso." Su Yan turned his face sideways, met his gaze, with a serious expression, "I'm going to Bazhou, and I have to ask Mr. Yu Ge to recommend three military counselors to take with me. When formulating military plans If two of the counselors object, it must be implemented with caution; if all three object, the plan should be abandoned and a different approach should be taken. How about it?"

Zhu Helin knew that this was a way to prevent the generals of the first army from being inexperienced and self-willed.As the left servant of the Ministry of War, Yu Chezhi is proficient in military affairs, so the counselor he recommends must also be someone with insight in military affairs, so he nodded and said, "I promise you."

Only then did Su Yan let go of half of his heart, and said with emotion: "My family has a son who has just grown up, so he really should go out and practice."

Zhu Helin's ambition turned into a bad heart in an instant, and he gritted his teeth and pinched his itchy waist: "Who is your son? Do you really think you are a little mother?!"

Su Yan still doesn't know at this moment that he will pay a heavy price in bed for these words in the near future, regretting that he will go to the high hall of others because of his quick talk.

Datong Prefecture, Shanxi Province, Huairen County.

It was getting dark, King Yu got off his horse and hurried into the palace.Standing in the courtyard were two senior officials who were in charge of all affairs in the mansion, as well as a group of weeping maidservants and old maids, rushing forward to pay respects.

"Is there any news about the son?" King Yu asked face to face.

Left Chief Shi Cui Ti shook his head, his face was haggard: "I sifted through the city several times, but I didn't find any clues after three feet of digging. It seems that the son has been taken out of Huairen by the thieves and disappeared...My lord, you have to find a way to rescue him." Return to the world!"

With a sullen face, King Yu asked again: "Did the kidnapper leave any notes or messages for me? What he wants to do with Ajiu to blackmail me step by step, there must be an order."

Cui Changshi shook his head again: "I haven't seen the other party submit a letter or send a message."

An old lady who was in charge of taking care of the son ventured to add: "My lord, a lot of things are missing in the son's room. There are clothes, hair crowns, and a few toys that the son used to play with. I don't know if they were taken away by the kidnappers."

King Yu frowned and thought deeply, feeling that something was wrong with this matter.

People in Yifu waited eagerly for him to make up his mind.After pondering for a while, King Yu ordered: "The guards should continue to search inside and outside the city, and don't let go of any clues. This king will stay in the ancestral room, waiting for the other party to contact me and ask for a price!"

As a result, in the middle of the night, there was movement outside Shizi's room, and a shadow like light smoke floated in through the quietly opened door.

coming!

King Yu decided to give the other party a bad start, beat him to the ground first, and then negotiate a deal.With luck in his arms behind the door, he punched out, and the wind howled, and the power of the fist was like the Milky Way bursting its embankment and the stars rushing forward.

The opponent didn't dodge or dodge, just stretched out his fingers like a sword, and drew a virtual circle in mid-air.Thus, the force of the fist wind like the flow of stars in the Milky Way, like being sucked into the bottomless abyss in this circle, was easily resolved.

King Yu felt awe-inspiring, and felt that the opponent's skill was unfathomable, and that understated move coincided with the principle of heaven and earth's movement.

At present, he has only seen this state in one person——

"Jing Hong chasing after!"

When the name was blurted out, the other party flicked the torch in his hand, and the faint light illuminated half of the face under the cloak, and it was indeed Jing Hongchai.

King Yu subconsciously asked: "Qinghe is here?"

Jing Hong pursued, "No, I'm alone. My lord is still in the capital."

King Yu frowned: "The capital is in turmoil, what are you going to do if you don't guard Qinghe?"

Jing Hong flicked her fingers, and several sparks flew out from the fire, simultaneously igniting several wall lamps in the house. "Of course it's because of my lord's order. I arrived in Huairen ten days ago and temporarily settled in your palace, but no one in your palace can find me."

When he said this, King Yu immediately realized what was wrong: "You were in the palace at the time, how could Ah Ji lose it?"

Bazhou, which belongs to Beizhili, is the southern gate of Gyeonggi. After passing Bazhou and going north, you can see the outer wall of the capital within a few days.

The rebel army tried to break through this line of defense, but suffered several defeats in Wen'an, Baoding, and Bazhou areas. Qi Meng was seriously injured, Yang Hui was captured, and the forward troops were beaten to pieces and fled in all directions.

After Wang Wu and Wang Chen received the military report, they were furious, and they personally led hundreds of thousands of horses to rescue Bazhou, beating those local guards with low combat effectiveness to the point of disregarding their heads.

Qi Jingtang led his troops to suppress, and the Wang brothers were very good at picking soft persimmons, and retreated when they encountered hard stubble, and dealt with them in the counties and counties south of Gyeonggi, trying to consume the food and ammunition of the Ming army with a stretched front , drag down the opponent's morale.

No, I just fought a battle in Xiongxian County, Baoding Prefecture, and in a blink of an eye, I ran to Bazhou in the east, knocked down the ancient city wall with bricks in the earth, and directly entered the city. The first one to set fire to it was the state. In the city yamen, the second one burned was the old house of the former elder Jiao Yang.

Poor Mr. Jiao Ge was at least one person under ten thousand people, because he gambled on the wrong country, he was deprived of his title of bachelor by Emperor Jinglong, expelled from the cabinet, and released as an insignificant magistrate.He was so angry that he resigned from illness not long after and returned to his hometown, holding the thick coffin books he had earned as an official for decades, and prepared to become a rich man for the rest of his life.Unexpectedly, misfortune fell from the sky, the coffin was looted by the "rebels", and even the ancestral house was burned, so he was so angry that he vomited blood and died on the spot.

"Kill all the corrupt officials and go to Beijing to support the virtuous!"

The window was full of shaking torches and the sound of slogans one after another. The maid shivered in the corner and hugged Ruan Hongjiao's arm.

Because Ruan Hongjiao went out to discuss business, she was well-dressed. She was wearing a white and reddish Haitian Xia Liyi, covered with a sky-green bamboo green shirt, wearing a crown of emerald green leaves on her head, and a white gauze scarf on her face. It is eye-catching, and it is guessed that there must be a beautiful woman under the veil.

At this moment, the folds of Luoshan's shirt were pulled out nervously by the maid, but Ruan Hongjiao remained calm, and patted the back of the maid's hand reassuringly: "Don't worry, we'll hide and don't show up. Beijing."

But she faintly realized in her heart that the matter of Bazhou was not that simple.

The wealthy businessman who ordered two hundred shiweisu insisted that "Zhi Zeqing" was selling fake products, and made a big fuss in the Bazhou branch. As the big boss, she had to come here to check the truth.After an investigation, it was found that the goods had been dropped, and the monosodium glutamate extracted from five grains according to the formula given by Mr. Su had turned into local nitrate salt in Bazhou.

The color and shape of nitrate are similar to monosodium glutamate, and it also has some freshening effect, but it is poisonous, and excessive intake can be life-threatening.

Ruan Hongjiao suspected that this was commercial blackmail caused by malicious competition, so she reported to the government in Bazhou, and stayed in a wing room in the backyard of the branch, waiting for the state government to hear the case.

Unexpectedly, before the hall could be promoted, the official office was burned to ashes by a fire.

Right now Bazhou City is in the hands of the "rebels", and there are noises and cries everywhere, the caravan guards hired by Ruan Hongjiao saw that the situation was not good, so they took advantage of the chaos and slipped away.But fortunately, the rebels still pay attention to military discipline. They know that the common people are the foundation and cannot be killed and looted indiscriminately. Therefore, the people who suffer in the city are basically the guards, officials and wealthy households.

Ruan Hongjiao brought a sum of money with her when she went out this time, and there was also a lot of surplus in the branch.She packed all the silver and precious banknotes together and hid them in the wing room. She left some scraps of silver in the store to send off the rebel soldiers who came to search for money.

Sure enough, the soldiers who rushed into the store found a large bag of broken silver and left contentedly. The maid was thankful that the master had the foresight, but there were chaotic footsteps outside the house, as if surrounded by a large group of people.

The door of the wing room was knocked heavily, and seeing no one answered, the knocker kicked it open impatiently.The maid screamed and hid in the bed curtain.Ruan Hongjiao took a deep breath, stood up and faced the seven or eight big men who surrounded her, and said softly, "You guys, be merciful, speak slowly if you have something to say, a weak woman from my family, why bother to make such a big battle. "

"You are not a weak woman. Boss Ruan, known as the Goddess of Wealth, is a well-known figure even in the business circle of the capital." The middle-aged businessman who led the way was the one who made a big fuss in her branch, and he was gloating at the moment, " The rebel army collected money and food from the wealthy businessmen and gentry, and used it to do justice for the heavens and help the poor. Boss Ruan is a rich man, so how can he hide his secrets?"

Ruan Hongjiao knew that this time it would be inevitable to lose money and eliminate disasters, so she said very simply: "You don't need to say, boss Xu, I am willing to donate all the belongings around me, together with the contract of this shop, to the rebel army. I hope this good man... um , the general accepted it with a smile."

The leader of the rebel army known as "General" laughed loudly and said, "Since you donate sincerely, of course you have to pay, not only the money, but also a newcomer, how about it?"

Ruan Hongjiao's face changed slightly under the veil, and she still said softly: "General, please don't make fun of the servants. It is said that the rebel army has strict discipline. The two kings who lead the army are most forbidden to harass women from good families. How could the general knowingly commit a crime? Why don't you accept it?" With money, make a good relationship, and let the little girl live."

When she mentioned "the two great kings who lead the army", she made the leader frown, thinking of the methods of Wang Wu and Wang Chen, she was also a little apprehensive.But the woman in front of her looked like one of the best beauties in the world. If she missed this opportunity, she might not have such a good fortune again.

So the boss put his mind to one side and said: "Stop talking nonsense, sir, I also want money and people. It's a good thing to be here tonight. Tomorrow you will be the grandma of my family. You don't have to show your face to do business anymore. Why not good?"

"——Good ass!" There was an angry shout from outside the door, and then a pole placed outside the house flew in, hitting the boss in the back, knocking him to the ground.

The leader rolled on the ground, turned his head to see the figure at the door, his face was ashen, and called out: "General Wang Liu!"

Wang Chen was dressed in a military uniform, with bushy eyebrows and big eyes, he was very handsome and rough, his beard was shaved livid, he strode into the house, and cursed at him: "If you pay, you will pay, but you want to rob women, and put our brothers The announced discipline should be ignored? Then the military law will be dealt with, and the 10,000+ people in the rebel army will be warned!"

The boss knelt down and kowtowed to beg for mercy, scolding himself for being confused for a while, and promised never to do it again, and said that it was the female boss who seduced him in red and green.

Ruan Hongjiao didn't defend herself, just took out a handkerchief, pressed it to the corner of her eyes and wept sadly.

Wang Chen kicked the leader's heart again, and cursed: "Disgraceful! Take him down, severely punish the fifty army sticks, and tell the whole army, if anyone offends a commoner woman, he will be executed without mercy!"

The soldiers dragged away the offending leader.

Ruan Hongjiao wiped away her tears, and Tingting stepped forward to thank her.Wang Chen squinted his eyes and looked her up and down, that look made Ruan Hongjiao's heart tremble, and finally said: "I said you are his righteous sister, I think you are like his concubine."

Ruan Hongjiao was startled, and asked, "Who?"

Wang Chen sneered: "The old court elder, Su Yan, Su Qinghe."

Ruan Hongjiao's heart was so cold that when a basin of ice water was poured down her head, she said silently: "Master, I'm afraid my sister will hurt you this time!"I will try my best to save myself, and if I can't save it, I'd rather be broken than whole.I only hope that the young master will one day destroy the thieves and calm the chaos, and avenge me!
