"It's rare to be idle for half a day, I wanted to accompany you well, but now I look at it, but I want to give up-" Yang Sichang said apologetically.

Lan Niang smiled slightly, and said softly: "The master is busy with big things, where is there a reason to delay on the woman, the master is gone, and when he comes back in the afternoon, the slave will play the piano with the master to relieve his boredom." ”

She is an extremely beautiful woman of equal length, just like a spiritual stone in front of the Buddha, she looks extraordinarily spiritual, and she is also elegant and pure to the extreme. But this smile is extremely charming and moving, and the eyebrows are full of mature and seductive charm.

Yang Sichang seemed to love her very much, spoiled her very much, laughed, and kissed her heavily on the face before leaving with a smile.

Looking at his back, the woman named Lan Niang pursed her lips and smiled softly, her expression full of sweet happiness.

……

Xuanda Governor's Office, in the signing room.

The signing room is usually where Shangguan's office is located, similar to the office of the big boss in later generations, but Yang Sichang spends very little time here. It's just that even if you use it less, this pomp and circumstance must not be lost. The area in the signing room is very large, the ground is polished very neatly, inlaid with tightly seamed bluestone slabs, tables, chairs, and arhat beds are all made of fine precious wood.

Yang Sichang is still wearing that wide robe with big sleeves, after all, it is not the official office time, but there is no need to wear it too formally. He sat upright in a chair behind the large desk and looked at the door.

Yang Mo, the housekeeper outside the door, had already led Dong Ce and the others to the middle hall very diligently, and smiled at Hou Fangyu in front of him: "Hou Gongzi, this is it." ”

Hou Fangyu nodded with a smile and said to Yang Mo: "There is labor." ”

He is naturally extremely reserved and personable, but with such capital, Dong Ce can't do this. He took out a big silver ingot weighing ten taels from his sleeve, and stuffed it into Yang Mo's hand as soon as he threw it into Yang Mo's hand, and said with a low smile: "Brother Lao, it's a little meaning, it's not a respect, and the brother takes it to drink tea." ”

The second steward in Yang Sichang's mansion has not yet reached the level where he can accumulate two thousand taels of silver like the house slave of the whip dynasty and Shen, and handed over ten taels of silver, which immediately made him smile and nod his head again and again. Although he didn't know where Dong Ce came from, but such an outstanding talent, and being able to give Hou Gongzi a good life, he thought that he had a lot of background, and he was so good, and his attitude suddenly became a little more affectionate.

Hou Fangyu looked at Dong Ce's behavior like this and did not speak. He disdains to do such things, will not do them, and there is no need to do them, but this does not mean that he does not understand Dong Ce's hardships and thoughts.

He took a light breath, pushed the door in, and Dong Ce went in with him. I saw that after Hou Fangyu saw Yang Sichang, his face was immediately full of sincere admiration, he took two quick steps, took a deep look, and said loudly: "The little nephew has seen my uncle." ”

Yang Sichang looked him up and down, and a warm smile appeared on his face, he actually got up in person, bypassed the table, helped Hou Fangyu up, and said with a smile: "The last time I saw the virtuous nephew, it was still in Beijing, I haven't seen him for many years, the virtuous nephew is already such a jade and gentle character, the old man is very relieved, he is very relieved!" ”

Hou Fangyu's face was full of panic, and he hurriedly said that he didn't dare.

The two talked politely for a while, and Yang Sichang asked Hou Xie again and something like that, and Hou Fangyu naturally said that everything was fine. As for how intimate it is, it can't be said in front of Dong Ce, and it's not right now, it's best to talk about some homely things during dinner.

Yang Sichang asked Hou Fangyu to sit down, and ordered the tea to be served, and when the subordinates retreated and closed the door, he looked at Dong Ce.

Dong Ce naturally knew what this meant, so he hurriedly took two steps forward, and fell to the ground very respectfully, and his knee hit the bluestone slab for a while. He said in a loud voice: "Xiaguan and the lower rock fort of North Hebei Province will be the garrison Dong Ce, and meet the central lord. ”

In order to win over the hearts of the Han people, the Ming Dynasty flattered the Song Dynasty from the beginning of its founding, such as the first regime established by the Red Turban Army from Zhu Yuanzhang, which was called the Song Dynasty. Many systems were also learned from the Song Dynasty, and of course there were many differences. The Song Dynasty was in charge of the military was the Privy Council, and the early Ming Dynasty was the Metropolitan Governor's Office, and in the later period, after the civil officials turned over, it was the Ministry of War that was in charge of the military power.

The military department is called the soldier, and Yang Sichang, the governor of Xuanda, the full name is the governor Xuanda, Shanxi and other military affairs and food and salary, in fact, it is not the specific title of the official position, but only the induction of his powers, to put it bluntly, it is to stipulate the scope of his management, and there is no rank. Therefore, the governors of all generations have to be crowned, which is their official position and rank. Not only the governor, but also the governor, they are usually the royal history of the third rank. For example, Yang Sichang is the left squire of the military department, and the left is the imperial history.

Among his official positions, the highest is the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of War, which is also the first person under the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and he is called the center by Dong Ce, which is a kind of elevated honorific title.

Sure enough, when Yang Sichang heard him say this, he was a little satisfied in his heart, looked him up and down, and said secretly: "Although he is a vulgar martial artist, he looks good, he can speak, and his attitude is very respectful." ”

He has been immersed in officialdom for decades, and he is already an extremely treacherous and cunning official, seeing Dong Ce's attitude, and listening to his official position, I roughly guessed his intention. There must be something to ask for.

Thinking about this, he also had a very high look at Dong Ce. But with this person being able to find Hou Fangyu's way, and following him to see him, he could see that he had some thoughts. However, what made him a little puzzled was that the official in charge of North Hebei Province was Liu Ruozai of the Northern Hebei Military Preparation Road, what could this Dong Ce do, how could he come to him directly?

Skipping the report, this is a taboo in officialdom.

He didn't let Dong Ce get up, but sat upright, looked at Dong Ce, and slowly said, "You came to see this official, what's the matter?" ”

But it was a businesslike tone, Hou Fangyu couldn't help but be a little anxious when he heard it next to him, and was about to speak, but Dong Ce said it first. He said loudly: "The lower officials have indeed reported important military intelligence when they come this time. ”

"Oh? Important military intelligence? Yang Sichang's face was a little solemn and he sat up straight.

Hou Fangyu knew that this Hanchen brother had always been resourceful, so he no longer worried about him, took a sip of tea, leaned back in the chair, and looked at him with a smile What moths he was going to make.

Dong Ce said in a deep voice: "So that the central lord will know that the Rock Fort is the garrison below, and my Rock Fort is only dozens of miles away from the side wall." It is the place where the Jiannu and the Chahar Tartars enter the Koukou, and there are often Tartars and suspicious people. It is the following officers who often lead their soldiers and patrol around in case of accidents. ”

Yang Sichang is good at infighting, power struggle, and is very interested in officialdom struggles and deceitful power dumping, and he is also extremely good at it. But he doesn't have the ability to govern for the people at all, let alone the ability to dominate one side, as a feudal official, the military and political commander's military talent, not only does he not have the ability to do this, but he also has no awareness and interest in this area, where does he know where the rock fort is? Therefore, after listening to Dong Ce's words, his face was expressionless.

In fact, I am already a little impatient in my heart, but there is always self-cultivation, and people are brought by Hou Fangyu, so I always have to give him some face.

He said lightly: "You are diligent in your duties, very diligent." ”

"Serving the country, the saints, and the central lord is the duty of the lower officials, and they dare not praise them as adults." Dong Ce was impassioned and said loudly: "Just five days ago, Xiaguan and others met a merchant on the road, claiming to be a cloth merchant, surnamed Sun Changcai, whose home is in Wuli Village, thirteen miles north of Yingzhou City, doing a cloth business, often going back and forth between Datong, Yingzhou and Yanghe. He spoke very neatly, and he did not panic when he saw the officers and soldiers cross-examining, and he seemed to have no doubts. It's just that Xia Guan is suspicious, he is not panicked, it seems that there is no flaw, and his heart is open, but in fact it is the biggest suspicion. Ordinary people and ordinary people, when they see officers and soldiers, how can they not panic? And he was just one man and two donkeys, but the donkey was tired and looked like he was going to die of exhaustion. If the cloth is being transported, and the cloth occupies a large space, and the transportation is not too much, and the weight is limited, how can the donkey be like this? ”

The following officials gave orders to search his luggage and baggage, but the thief named Sun Changcai changed his face greatly, and he pulled out a knife in the baggage and wanted to kill and escape. Fortunately, the subordinate officials had already taken precautions, subdued him, tied him up, and tortured him, but the guy was extremely tough, and while the subordinate officials were unprepared, he actually bit the poison hidden in his mouth and committed suicide by taking poison. The subordinates of the lower officials were so angry that they actually chopped their corpses into mud with knives, and they couldn't even see their faces. The lower officials were furious, and they had already been severely punished. ”

However, Xia Guan carefully examined his corpse, took off his hat, and found that the hair on this guy's head was quite short in the front and long in the back, and there were traces of shaving at the root of the hair. And the lower official also found five thousand taels of silver in his luggage! That's a staggering amount. His subordinates guessed that this thief should be a meticulous work sent by Jiannu, who specially carried a huge amount of silver taels to bribe me to spy on my Xuanda army. Its wolf ambition can be killed or punished! ”

The lower officials didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly escorted Yin Liang to Yanghe City, asking to see Lord Central. These silver coins are reckless and blunt, and they will never dare to dispose of them privately. The central lord is the pillar of the country, the pillar of the central court, the knowledge is a hundred times better than mine, these silver taels, handed over to the central lord to dispose of, the most suitable. Looking at what Dong Ce said there was impassioned, his feelings were sincere, and even his face turned red, and he said emotionally, as if he couldn't take out his heart. He also expressed his incomparable awe and great respect for Yang Sichang, and his incomparable resentment towards Jiannu, his emotions were so strong that Hou Fangyu could really feel it. He really admired Dong Ce, and said secretly: "Brother Hanchen is really pretending to be a cat like a cat, pretending to be a tiger like a tiger, talking about people when he sees people, and talking about ghosts when he sees ghosts, what is even more rare is that it took a while of effort to make up such a satisfactory statement, and what he said is also like the truth, this ability must be learned by a good student." ”
