Chapter 973: Return

A firecracker guard shouted: "You dogs come up and try it again, Lao Tzu is a shot to kill the northern captives, you are a hanger, dare to rush our convoy, I don't know how death is written?" ”

The Banner School was dumbfounded when they heard this, on the side of the Daming Jingshi, within Kisuke, there were actually people who opened fire on them with a fire hammer, and insulted them with such rude and rude words...... You must know that when the factory guards were in their prime, they always walked sideways in Beijing, and even the nobles and civil officials did not want to anger the factory guards, but now a group of businessmen and guards dared to point at their noses and scold!

"I remember that. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" The leader of the flag school said to the team manager with a gloomy face: "Today we are not well prepared, so we can only endure this breath first, but when I return to the capital, I will report to the top, and I am afraid that you will not be able to give an explanation at that time." ”

"Confess a ball!" The fire gun guard also seemed to have an identity, and he spat at the moment and scolded: "Lao Tzu's Beizhu has been wiped out, annoyed by our adults, you really don't even count a hanging, hurry up and get out of your mother, annoyed Lao Tzu, the fire gun hits you directly, kills you for a dog day, see if Lao Tzu will fight for you." ”

The face of the leader of the flag school changed greatly, and he only then remembered that he was not an ordinary businessman in front of him, he originally had a special identity, and doing business in the territory of the Ming Dynasty was also endured by the imperial court pinching his nose, which really angered these guys, even if the hutchison is not hard-topped, if he said that the person ran away, can the imperial court check and remember for a small general flag for himself?

I really didn't dare to say anything more at the moment, I glanced at the guard with the firearm hatefully, turned the horse's head and left, and the rest of the Jinyi Banner School also looked depressed, and quickly galloped away with their leader.

There are a lot of busy traders and passers-by around, and there are many farmers in the farmland who gather to see the excitement, everyone is raising their heads, opening their mouths, and twisting their heads, like a group of geese that are carried by their necks, and when they see the flag school eating and suffocating, everyone first looks at each other, and then there is a burst of cheers and laughter!

About from the founding of the Ming Dynasty to the present, the factory guard flag school has not won the hearts of the people, these guys are really the most hateful first-class people in the world, black hearts, black lungs and rotten intestines, of course the people hate them, even if they are businessmen from Beijing, which time to the capital is not scared? If something is wrong, take it down and catch it in the North Institute, it will be miserable, I am afraid that people will die in it, and the bones will be rotten, and the family may not be able to know!

"Thank you, thank you."

The guard with the firearm was proud, and he hugged his fists to thank the people around him, this man was grown, his face was dark, his chin was unshaven, and his roots were like iron, he looked like a very martial fighting man, but if he looked at it more closely, he was a young man in his early twenties...... Seeing the other party's age, Shi Kefa suddenly felt a little blushing.

"This little brother," Shi Congbin said to the big man's fire guard, "There is a silver ingot here, take it and drink two cups with your brothers, it can be regarded as my uncle and nephew to express gratitude." ”

Shi Congbin has about three taels of broken silver in his hand, which is also a big deal, which is worth half a year's income of ordinary people. Unexpectedly, the big man guard glanced at the silver, grinned and said: "Are these scattered pieces of silver enough, we have already booked a banquet for the guests upstairs in Baoding Mansion, and one table will cost four taels of silver......

As if he was afraid that Shi Congbin would not understand, the big man escort said: "Our team will arrive in Baoding in a day and a half, and the time will arrive in the afternoon and afternoon tomorrow...... It's a rare thing, when we're in the north, we don't drink all year round. ”

Shi Congbin was embarrassed to death, he didn't expect this guard to be such a straight intestine, as if he was very poor and stingy, and he was even more embarrassed when he saw that the people around him were grinning.

Of course, Shi Congbin has drunk a banquet of four taels of silver, and it is not uncommon for a dozen taels to eat a meal, but at this time, according to the purchasing power of silver, one tael of silver is about 650 yuan in later generations, and four taels of silver is equal to nearly 3,000 yuan for a meal, and it is also a very high-grade civilian-level banquet in later generations, Shi Congbin could not have imagined that these guards would be willing to spend so much money to "drink two cups"?

"Qin Bosheng, you fool, hurry up to the front escort team......" The steward of the caravan rushed over at this time, and with a smile, he drove the big man to escort him, and then explained to Shi Congbin: "The big man Qin looks mighty, but in fact, he is not twenty years old, he has no heart, he has no heart, he is not a brain, don't worry about Lord Shi." ”

"I can tell he's not very old." Shi Congbin smiled bitterly: "I just don't know why he looks down on this silver." ”

"That's the case......" The steward pondered for a moment and said: "Qin Bosheng has made military exploits, he has been a deputy squadron leader for less than a year, according to the rules of me and Yusheng business group training, he has three hundred and fifty acres of land on the grassland, in recent years, the military department has opened up millions of acres of land on the grassland, and next year there will be more, everywhere the acres of land are either planted beans, sorghum, millet, or ready to plant wheat, a large number of places to plant cotton, next year not only we spin our own cloth, but also sell lint, acres of income, in addition to most of the return to the public middle school, A small half will be allocated to the soldiers as a land grant...... Therefore, an officer like Qin Bosheng is not only not poor, but also very rich. ”

"I see, I see." Shi Congbin was dumbfounded when he heard this, and Shi Kefa on the side was no better.

The impression has always been that the soldiers are poor, to put it bluntly, whether it is the border soldiers or the guard army, they are all very poor, and even some military towns are treated too poorly, and the soldiers are not much better than beggars, and what the steward in front of him said is really appalling, a low-level officer has a dividend of more than 300 acres of land every year, and generally speaking, the wealth obtained by the status of a person is nothing more than that.

"Ordinary officers and men of our army also have 80 acres of land, and 50 acres of baggage."

This steward is really not shocking...... Shi Kefa thought about it, and said in his mouth: "The grassland is vast and sparsely populated, and Master Zhang is really generous. ”

"The acres of land are all opened...... the steward smiled: "If it weren't for that, how could the soldiers be so effective with their lives and fight with their lives?" Moreover, even if there are no acres of land, Qin Da's monthly income is six taels of silver, and there are always nearly 100 taels a year. ”

"This one is almost ......"

This is not too subversive, the treatment of Liaozhen has also been raised, ordinary horsemen have two or four a month, since Qin Bosheng is a small officer, nearly a hundred taels of silver a year is similar to the officers of Liaozhen.

……

Soon after the Shi family's uncle and nephew left Beijing, the news of Jinyiwei was reported to the East Factory, and the big stall leaders of the East Factory did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly reported to Wei Zhongxian.

Wei Zhongxian did not return to the palace at this time, these few days are the most critical time, almost all of his minions in the palace are now, from the celebrant to the Dongchang, and then to the governor of the capital, the Qianqing Palace steward brand These are Wei Zhongxian's henchmen, Wei Zhongxian is not going back, presiding over the plan, and the Hakka family in the palace has been monitoring in case someone takes advantage of the opportunity to make trouble. Every day, there will be a little eunuch wearing white leather boots back and forth between the palace and the outside of the palace, reporting the news of the palace to Wei Zhongxian's residence on the Ten Kings' Mansion Street, and Wei Zhongxian will also ask people to bring things outside to the palace by word of mouth, and spread them to the Hakka family.

It can be said that Wei Zhongxian has gained much more power than all the eunuchs before the Ming Dynasty, the main reason is both inside and outside, internally, there is a nurse like the Hakka who can interfere in the affairs of the palace, the dependence and trust of the Apocalypse on the Hakka family is almost like the feelings of his biological mother, and there is no older woman in the palace to preside over the palace affairs, how is Empress Zhang young, a little woman under the age of twenty, how is Wei Zhongxian and the Hakka clan the opponent of the alliance?

The palace is in control, and the outer dynasty has Dongchang and Jinyiwei as wings, plus the civil officials are divided because of the party dispute, a large number of civil officials are attached to Wei Zhongxian, which causes Wei Zhongxian's power in the foreign dynasty to skyrocket, and finally has the strength to compete with the behemoth of the Donglin Party, and after this protracted party dispute, it seems that Wei Zhongxian has won the final victory.

Wei Zhongxian was fat, ruddy, and full of qi when he spoke, unlike an ordinary eunuch who was injured, had a pale complexion, and spoke sharply and weakly.

After hearing the report, Wei Zhongxian waved his hand and said, "Since this is the case, let their uncle and nephew go." ”

Xu Xianchun on the side couldn't help but say: "Factory father, this is as arrogant as Yusheng, isn't it clear that he won't give us face?" Or will his subordinates lead people to chase them back? ”

"Chase back?" Wei Zhongxian smiled, and then said with a straight face: "Hurry up and get out, I heard that Yang Lian is not honest in prison, what are you going to do?" If it doesn't work well, I'll stop here and come again!" ”

Yang Lian was tortured, and he would have collapsed if he had been an ordinary person, but Yang Lian not only did not cross, but also asked the jailer for a pen and paper, and wrote a detailed statement of the situation.

Xu Xianchun's frightened soul flew away, and he quickly kowtowed to admit his mistake, Wei Zhongxian ignored him, and said to his nephew Wei Liangqing: "What's wrong with Ye Ge Lao?" ”

Wei Liangqing said resignedly: "I have been surrounded by some horns, asking people to scold inside, at first there were people climbing on the courtyard wall to scold us, and there has been no movement in the house in the past two days." ”

"Is Elder Ge going out?"

"I haven't been out for four or five days."

Ye Xianggao's mansion has been besieged for several days, and the eunuchs have found a handle under the advice of Wei Guanghui, Xu Dahua, Cui Chengxiu and others, and one of Ye Xianggao's nephews is also the imperial historian, and he is suspected of being corrupt and perverting the law.

The mansion of the dignified Shoufu was surrounded by a group of scoundrels in Beijing, the soldiers and horses of the five cities didn't care, of course, no one dared to take care of Daxing County and Shuntian Mansion, Ye Xianggao had already resigned from the three sparse places, but the Emperor of the Apocalypse had all approved the retention, Ye Xianggao had not continued to go up for the time being, Wei Zhongxian was a little uneasy in his heart, and said to Wei Liangqing: "You can't swallow water so tepid anymore, after a long time, there will be more people who can't see it, let's do such a thing, we have to solve it quickly." ”
