Erdou was surprised, Emperor Chongzhen actually wanted to summon himself, and the eunuch was a little eunuch under the eunuch Wang Chengen, who led a few brocade guards to come to announce the edict. Here, there are many eunuchs who teach Wang Dou and others what to pay attention to in various rituals of meeting saints.

I don't know how much time passed, a eunuch came to pass Wang Dou to the platform to see the driver, Wang Dou hurriedly followed the eunuch, passed through the palace gates, and arrived at the Yuntai Gate of the Jianji Palace, he made a big bow according to the instructions of Fang Cai, and then knelt on the ground and waited.

Inside and outside the hall, there are many eunuchs and captains. Wang Dou felt that many pairs of eyes were focused on him. Then another eunuch came out to deliver a decree and let Wang Dou enter the palace.

Wang Dou entered the hall, walked a few steps, and saw a throne in front of him, he knelt down and kowtowed, and said loudly: "Minister, the security guard of Xuanfu Town commands Jidou." Knock on my majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live! ”

There was no movement for a long time, and after a long time, a young and tired voice sounded: "Lu Aiqing, this is what you call Wang Dou, right?" ”

Wang Dou heard Lu Xiangsheng's voice sound: "Back to the emperor, exactly."

The tired voice said again: "Wang Dou, you get up and speak."

Wang Dou said: "Thank you, Emperor."

He stood up and stole a glance around the front. I saw a young man wearing a bright yellow dragon robe sitting on the throne of the coiling dragon, and the throne was full of eunuchs standing on both sides. Lu Xiangsheng was dressed in the official uniform of the squire of the military department and stood respectfully to the side.

Wang Dou knew that the person sitting on the dragon throne was the current Emperor Chongzhen, and at that glance just now, he saw Chongzhen's appearance, and he was secretly surprised in his heart. Lu Xiangsheng was less than forty years old and his temples were gray, which made Wang Dou sigh, and Wang Dou saw that Emperor Chongzhen's temples were also gray, he ascended the throne at the age of seventeen, and he should not be thirty years old by now, so old. There was even a tiredness in his expression that radiated from the bottom of his heart, but he was just trying to support himself.

Chongzhen looked at Wang Dou carefully. He spoke: "Wang Dou, you are loyal and courageous. Listening to Ran, you trained soldiers and horses in Baoan Prefecture and governed Tuntian, which was quite effective. The heart is very relieved. ”

Wang Dou said: "This is all thanks to the blessing of the Holy Lord, and the teachings of the governors and the ministers of the Fuchen, and the ministers dare not speak out.

Such a person, think about the ending of Emperor Chongzhen in history, and then think about Li Zicheng after entering Beijing, he copied tens of millions of taels of silver from the officials and wealthy households in Beijing, and when the Qing soldiers broke through Jiangnan, the silver that was casually stolen from the house of a landlord and gentry was also 100,000, 200,000 taels.

Wang Dou sighed deeply, it's a pity.

When they arrived at the Huayuan Pavilion in Cuihua Garden, Emperor Chongzhen gave Lu Xiangsheng and Wang Dou wine and food, four side dishes, a bowl of brown rice, a pot of wine, and no meat. Look at the Emperor's side, no less. Wang Dou held the bowl, stunned and a little distracted.

Looking at Wang Dou's appearance, Chongzhen was a little strange: "Wang Dou, what's wrong with you?" ”

Lu Xiangsheng also coughed lightly beside him, reminding Wang Dou not to lose his temper.

Wang Dou sighed: "Weichen is thinking, Your Majesty, you are too bitter about yourself, you have to take care of the dragon body."

Chongzhen looked at Wang Dou in surprise for a while.

Coming out of the imperial garden, Lu Xiangsheng was still excited, the emperor comforted him, and gave him wine and food, Lu Xiangsheng felt that he was broken bones, and he could not repay the emperor's kindness. He explained to Wang Dou in detail: "The gentleman's grace is deep, the emperor values you so much, Wang Dou, you need to be diligent and do your duty, and live up to the grace of the saint."

Wang Dou said yes, and the two came out under the guidance of the eunuch, and suddenly saw a girl dressed in a palace on the opposite side; There were several palace maids around him, and when he saw this girl, Lu Xiangsheng hurriedly saluted and said: "Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Weichen Xuanda, has seen Princess Kunxing." ”

Wang Dou hurriedly followed behind him to perform dysentery, the girl was only eleven or twelve years old, but she was dignified and beautiful, her body was slender, and gave people a feeling of weakness, she smiled and returned the courtesy, saying that Lu Duchen was polite.

Seeing this girl and hearing Lu Xiangsheng's words to meet her, Wang Dou suddenly remembered the identity of this palace girl, who was Zhu Nenni, the princess of Changping of the Ming Dynasty, and was named Princess Kunxing at this time. ”

Maybe it was Lu Xiangsheng who played a role, and when Wang Dou went to the military department again on the second day, although the foreigner surnamed Liu had a black face, he still went through the relevant procedures for Wang Dou, so that he successfully received the official uniform, the letter of the body, the seal and other things, Wang Dou also heard him muttering a few words in a low voice: "It's really strange that a garrison has the support of Lu Shilang and has to be summoned by the emperor." ”

A few days later, Wang Dou returned to Baoanzhou City at this time, it was already Chongzhen's ten years of wax moon, not far from the New Year, the three thousand recruits in Shunxiang Fort had been trained, and their temperament had undergone earth-shaking changes. From a lazy, numb, and thin military household, he has become a warrior who shows heroism in his demeanor.

Looking at these trained recruits, Wang Dou was also very satisfied, and he thought about waiting for the New Year to start spring. It's time for them to go out and see the blood.

Before the New Year, Wang Dou held a grand military parade in Shunxiang Fort, and the flags were like clouds on the teaching field that day. The sound of "Wansheng" was overwhelming, Wang Dou and other officers drew their swords and pointed obliquely, and a neat queue stepped in front of them, and the neat footsteps represented a force, an invincible force.

Looking at the soldiers passing by, Wang Dou's heart was full of pride, and the five thousand elite soldiers had a lot to do in the world.
