Qi Ning felt that these clichéd etiquette were really troublesome, but there was no way to do it in his position. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info net

On the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, most families in the capital gather together, but the Jinyi Marquis Mansion began to make a Dharma field under the leadership of Master Jingwu from noon, and this time the Dharma field was placed, although the incident would not be too long, but it would continue until noon the next day, and it would last for twelve hours.

Qi Ning can only stay in Fachi during these twelve hours, staying at home, and all other things in the mansion, although Gu Qinghan is commanded behind the scenes, can only be handled by Han Shou, fortunately, the eldest uncle Gu Wenwen has not moved away from the Hou Mansion yet, and he helps take care of it, and everything is in order.

For Qi Ning, of course, these twelve hours were not very comfortable, listening to the chanting of the monks of the Great Light Temple, and he had to fall asleep from time to time.

Because of the new position, people began to come to worship early in the morning of the first day of the new year.

Those who come to worship will light a stick of incense and pay tribute, and those who are old and have high official positions will bow twice.

This time, Zhongyi Hou came in person, the King of Huainan sent the prince of Huainan to come, Wuxiang Hou Su Yu also rushed early this time, Jin Dao Hou also sent people, and the officials of the six departments also gave face, and the new position was not a grand event, but there were more officials who came on this day than during the funeral of Qijing.

Throughout the morning, there is an endless stream of people coming and going, Jinyi Hou's Mansion has not been so busy for some days, fortunately, there are many people in the mansion, and they are reluctant to come over, and they do not need to prepare a banquet to worship the new position, they are all coming to worship and have to leave, there is almost no gap from early in the morning to noon on the first day of the new year, although Qi Ning is strong, but every person who comes has to return the salute, and one morning down, it is really a little dizzy and tired.

Fortunately, after noon, everyone who should have come had come, and when the Dharma came to an end, the house invited a kind of monk to have a fasting meal, and Master Jingwu immediately led the monks to say goodbye.

In the next few days, there were a lot of visitors to the Jinyi Marquis's Mansion, Qi Ning got the holy decree to rebuild the Black Scale Camp, and many officials were naturally keenly aware that Emperor Yu had the intention to reuse the Jinyi Qi family, even if many officials had no friendship with Qi Ning, and even most of them had never met, but they still came to visit with large bags and small bags.

As long as you are in the officialdom, everyone knows that since the death of the first emperor, two major forces have appeared in the Great Chu court.

When the first emperor was in power, there was Sima Lan in the text, and there was a brocade in the martial arts, and the first emperor Wen Tao was very prestigious, which was enough to deter the Manchu courtiers, and the operation of the entire Great Chu was also very smooth.

However, after the death of the first emperor, the situation of the court changed, and Sima Lan, who was loyal and righteous, made the first contribution to the succession of the new monarch, and without the deterrence of the first emperor, although the king of Huainan did not take any advantage in the succession of the new monarch, nor did he dare to act rashly, but his voice and tone were obviously louder, he already had many henchmen in the government and the opposition, and now there are not a few officials who have defected to his sphere of influence.

The dispute between the two factions of Zhongyihou and the King of Huainan is not even a secret secret, and the parties on both sides are clearly distinguished, but for most officials of the two factions, no matter which faction they are in, it will not affect them to get along with Jinyihou.

Qi Jing passed away, the situation was unpredictable, and many people were secretly watching the jokes of the Marquis of Jinyi's mansion, but the next exhibition was beyond most people's expectations, and no one expected that Qi Ning, who was known as the fool in Jinyi, would step by step to the position of the leader of the Black Scale Battalion.

Although the Marquis of Jinyi is one of the four hereditary candidates, the title is honorable, and the officials of all sizes have three points of respect when they see it, but the Marquis who does not have real power in his hands is just good-looking on his face, just like Qi Ning only inherited the Marquis of Jinyi before, and the officials naturally dare not be too lazy in terms of face, but in their bones, it only ends here.

But once in real power, the weight of this marquis is very different.

What's more, since everyone knows that it is the emperor who has the intention to promote the Qi family, before the Qi family is involved in the dispute between the two parties, it is naturally an indispensable thing to first win over the friendship, in the officialdom, no one knows which cloud will rain, before it rains, it is human nature to be able to lay a foundation and leave a way out for yourself.

Therefore, the Jinyi Hou Mansion has been full of people coming and going for several days, so it is not lively.

After the sixth day of the first lunar month, Qi Ning eased down a little, but since that night, he has not spoken to Gu Qinghan for more than half a month, and Gu Qinghan almost never gave Qi Ning a chance to be alone again, which made Qi Ning always feel a little uncomfortable.

On the morning of the seventh day of the first month, Duan Canghai finally took the lead in returning to the Hou Mansion, Qi Ning got the news and immediately called over, this time not only Duan Canghai came back, but also brought seven or eight people over, seeing Qi Ning, several people knelt on the ground to worship, Duan Canghai looked dusty, and his already rough skin was now much rougher, and he smiled: "Master Hou, these are all the old brothers of the Black Scale Battalion, I will find them all back for you." ”

Qi Ning was stunned for a moment, Duan Canghai and Zhao Wushu had left the Hou Mansion for a long time, and the most important thing to rebuild the Black Scale Camp was, of course, to recruit people.

The Black Scale Battalion is different from ordinary teams, in Qi Ning's view, it is a special force in this era, of course, the selection of manpower must be refined, if the conditions are relaxed, at most it will only train an ordinary soldier and horse, and it is impossible to reach the height of the Black Scale Battalion back then, so this first step is the most important step to recruit manpower.

Duan Canghai had said that he would recall all the remaining remnants of the Black Scale Camp back then, but Qi Ning didn't think so.

After all, he couldn't believe that the rest of the Black Scale Camp was always looking forward to the reconstruction of the Black Scale Camp like Duan Canghai, and the dozens of people left in the Black Scale Camp back then were later promoted and appointed by the imperial court and assigned to various places.

"Mo Fukuan, General Wuwei Zhonglang, has resigned and is willing to come back to follow Hou Ye." Duan Cang pointed his finger to introduce a person, and the person immediately knelt on the ground and said in a loud voice: "Mo Fukuan to see the Hou Ye." ”

"Chen Dayou, lieutenant colonel Jian, has resigned."

"6 Kang, Captain Changshui, has resigned."

"Zhou Yunbin, General Lingjiang, is willing to follow and serve under the command of Hou Ye!"

Duan Cang howled at one person, and that person immediately knelt on one knee and bowed in front of Qi Ning, the youngest of these people was already thirty-six or seventeen years old, and the most was nearly fifty years old, but the waist board was straight, Qi Ning saw it in his eyes, and felt that these people were completely different from the temperament exuded by ordinary soldiers, they seemed more tenacious, and there was a fierce aura in their eyes that could not be concealed.

Qi Ning realized at this time that he had never seen the Black Scale Battalion charging into battle with his own eyes, although Duan Canghai and Zhao Wushu were from the Black Scale Battalion, but due to their identity, they were used to being respectful and obedient to themselves, so they might have really written something about the Black Scale Camp in their bones, but at this time, looking at these soldiers with a unique aura all over their bodies, he knew that the Black Scale Camp might be much stronger than he thought.

The breath on these people can only be experienced from blood and fire, and without the test of life and death, without the baptism of blood and fire, it is impossible to exud this fierce and even barbaric aura.

"Master Hou, these guys have all been assigned to serve as military attachés outside Beijing." Duan Canghai said: "I ran around a lot and found these guys, and some of them are busy with official business, and the resignation has been handed in, and when the military affairs in hand are handed over and the military department approves the resignation, they will immediately rush over to report." ”

Qi Ning personally helped several people up one by one, and said with a smile: "You are all officials, and you all have the ability and the future is immeasurable, has Duan Canghai made it clear to you that if you return to the Black Scale Camp, everything will have to start again, and I don't dare to guarantee that you will be promoted to official wealth." ”

"Master Hou, in the battle with the Blood Lan Army back then, we should all be dead." Among the people, Mo Fukuan's status before his resignation was the highest, "Gou survived, it was the three generals who instructed us, even if we left one person behind, we must wait until the day when the Black Scale Battalion was rebuilt." We've been waiting, and ...... The blood feud of the year cannot but be avenged. ”

6 said solemnly: "Master Hou, the last general is a rough man, and he just wants to ask Master Hou for one thing." ”

"You speak!"

"After the Black Scale Battalion has been trained, the last general hopes that one day, Master Hou can lead us into battle again, the last general has been inquiring all these years, and I heard that the Northern Han Blood Lan Army has always been there." 6 said: "If there is a chance to meet with the Blood Lan Army again, Hou Ye will definitely lead us to kill those dogs and kill a piece of armor, and other than that, the last general has no other requirements." ”

Qi Ning said with a smile: "I want to rebuild the Black Scale Army, of course I don't want this army to patrol the streets to catch thieves, if it is a dragon, it will travel for nine days, and if it is a tiger, it will be a small proud mountain, since it is the Black Scale Battalion, the final battlefield, of course, is the front line, what other teams can't do, the Black Scale Battalion will do it, and the city that other armies can't break, the Black Scale Battalion will ......!" After a pause, his eyes were like knives: "Others can't kill people, the Black Scale Battalion is here to kill!" ”

Qi Ning's voice was actually not high, and even a little calm and low, but it was this prosperity that made everyone's eyes light up, and they all hugged their fists and said: "I swore allegiance to the court and the Hou Ye!" ”

"You all just arrived in the capital, and it just so happens that I haven't had a good drink these days." Qi Ning smiled: "It just so happened that you guys came over, let's drink a lot today." Then he smiled and said, "You are all seniors, don't look at my young age, bully me at the wine table, I will declare personal vendettas." ”

Everyone was stunned, and then laughed in unison, and they all felt that this master was really funny, which was quite different from the serious and old-fashioned Qi family.
