(150 votes, there will be a change today, everyone who still has votes will vote for the late Tang Dynasty, ask for a subscription and a reward!) )
For Li Jing, Zhang Wanrong is very satisfied. Not to mention that Qingzhou saved his life, let's just say that the gifts that Li Jing gave him several times were quite generous, and the etiquette when they met was also very sufficient. He was very satisfied with such a young man, and it was natural for him to speak for him now.
Lei Gang also said: "I also think that Li Jing is just a young man with some character, and it is no problem to be loyal." Dengzhou's matter, he also said that it was something that the marshal had promised, so he wanted it. ”
"Li Jing should be quite reliable, after all, he first became a protégé of Cui Sima and Yu Gong, and later entered the unity camp of General Song Wen. Dealing with the Feng family and the Wang family, Li Jing also rushed to the front every time. Usually the money and food are lost, and they have never hesitated. "It's humane again.
Song Wei pondered for a long time before he said: "Li Jing is talented, and he is Cui Sima's protégé. It's just that his temperament is a little too rebellious, but it's okay now. I'm afraid, the stronger Li Jing's strength is, the more his temperament will be controlled. ”
Song Wei directly expressed the worries in his heart, and Li Jing's many performances now still show that he is a good person. However, his ability, as well as his temperament, made Song Wei feel an uncontrollable danger, so there were those difficulties. In the final analysis, Song Wei is not worried about Li Jing now, but about Li Jing in the future.
One mountain does not allow two tigers, on the territory of Ziqing Town, Wang Jingwu and Song Wei are two tigers fighting, seeing that Wang Jingwu is finally about to be defeated by Song Wei, at this time, how can Song Wei want to see the growth of a little tiger like Li Jing.
Everyone understood what Song Wei meant. This time. They don't have much to say.
However, Zhang Wanrong is not from the Shuai Mansion. Speaking of which, he and Song Wei are in a relationship of mutual domination and are on an equal footing.
He pinched his bearded round chin and chuckled: "The marshal's worries are not unreasonable, after all, Wang Jingwu is not at peace, and he has to prevent another Wang Jingwu." However, we think that this matter is actually very simple to solve. ”
"Oh, what's the solution?" Song Wei asked.
Zhang Wanrong smiled: "It's a pity that Li Jing already has a wife, otherwise if the handsome recruit Li Jing as the fast son-in-law of the East Bed." But everything is solved. ‘
Song Wei has no sons, only one daughter, who is just two eight years old, and is waiting for the word boudoir. Song Wei originally had sons, and he had three sons, but one was killed in battle during the Ping Pangxun Rebellion a few years ago, and the remaining two also died during the fight against Nanzhao. When he was old, he lost his son.
The others also understood the meaning of these words, and Li Jing's current performance was very loyal, but it was a little difficult to control. After all, although Li Jing is Cui Yunqing's protégé. It's still a little worse than Song Wei. But if Li Jing becomes Song Wei's son-in-law, it will be his own family. Don't worry about anything anymore.
"Why don't you let Li Jing divorce his wife and marry a handsome daughter?" The secretary proposed.
Song Wei didn't speak, he was a little moved, Li Jing's talent was amazing, but it was precisely because of Li Jing's amazement that Song Wei was a little worried about this too sharp knife. If Li Jing can really become his son-in-law, he will naturally be free from these troubles.
"It's going to be hard!" Lei Gang, who is more familiar with Li Jing, said: "Although Li Jing's wife is just an ordinary country girl, Li Jing is not the kind of person who will divorce his wife. ”
Song Wei frowned a little disappointed, Li Jing would not divorce his wife, so it was even more impossible for his daughter to be Li Jing's concubine.
Zhang Wanrong took in Song Wei's expressions before and after, and said with a smile at this time: "Li Jing refuses to divorce his wife, but he is a rare person with affection and righteousness, such a man is good." Dashuai, since it is not possible to let Li Jing be the handsome son-in-law, I still have a plan. ”
"Oh, what's the plan?"
"Dashuai can accept Li Jing as a righteous son!" Song Wei has no children now, but he has grandchildren, so he doesn't have to worry about the queen and so on, and he doesn't need to adopt a step-son. However, although there is no need to accept a nephew of the same clan as a stepson, it does not matter if you accept a righteous son.
In the late Tang Dynasty, it was not uncommon for military generals to accept their sons, and the generals of the Song Wei Forbidden Army were born in a family, but they did not accept their sons, and they used most of their sons and nephews. Now that Zhang Wanrong proposed, his eyes couldn't help but light up, if Li Jing became his adopted son, then he didn't have to worry about anything.
Later, Wang Jingwu was pacified, and with his mastery of Ziqing Town, even after the expiration of his term, it would not be a problem to continue to ask to serve as the envoy of Ziqing Pinglu Jiedu. He is now in his fifties, Li Jing is in his twenties, and he has become his adopted son, Li Jing's status is about to jump a lot, and he will soon become the young marshal of the Pinglu Army. When he dies in the future, he will let Li Jing serve as the envoy behind him, as soon as he closes his eyes, Li Jing will be the envoy of the festival.
Song Wei was a little excited, if Li Jing really became his adopted son, then there would be no such suspicion between father and son. Not only does he have one less opponent who makes him feel a sense of crisis all the time, but he also has an important boost. Li Jing and the elite of his Zhendong Army, Song Wei is in his eyes. Even the forbidden armies he commanded in the Shence Army were not much stronger than Li Jing's Zhendong Army. If Li Jing can really be accepted as a righteous son, Wang Jingwu's rebellion can be quelled at any time, and no one in Ziqing Town will dare to have any other thoughts.
For Li Jing, this is also a great good thing. After all, although Li Jing is capable, he lacks many things, he is only a farmer, with no family background and no prestige. Even if Li Jing is appreciated by the emperor now, the emperor is just a thirteen-year-old little emperor, and when he remembers Li Jing today, he will reward him, and he may forget it later. Although Li Jing has already made the position of Dengzhou Assassin, he is still far from being the commander of a town. And as long as Li Jing is willing to be his righteous son, he will immediately become the young marshal of Ziqing Town.
Zhang Wanrong could see that Song Wei's heart was moved, and the corners of his mouth were retracted and he smiled slightly. He made this proposal out of selfishness as well as out of public interest. This is a good proposition for both public and private. As a military supervisor, the most important duty is to help the imperial court control the local area, in addition to supervising the local feudal generals. And Ziqing Town finally wanted to get rid of the local power Wang Jingwu's tooth soldier group, at this time. He naturally didn't want to see Song Wei and Li Jing antagonistic to each other again. The generals are not in harmony. The result is inevitably turmoil in Ziqing Town. If you can't get it to the end, it's a war like this.
And out of selfishness, he actually likes Li Jing very much, especially after Zhang Chengye, whom he valued very much before, went to Li Jing's side, and often wrote to him to mention Li Jing's many benefits. Besides, Li Jing also saved his life, and he kept giving him all kinds of gifts, so polite to him. Zhang Wanrong often wants to help Li Jing.
If this matter is successful, not only Wang Jingwu's rebellion can be put down immediately, but even the hidden undercurrent in Ziqing Town can be eliminated. Besides, after Ziqing Town was pacified, his relationship with Song Wei was not as good as it is now, at that time, Li Jing had his help, and Shi Luli would be grateful to him, and he could stay more relaxed in Qingzhou.
"Jing Xiu, what do you think of this matter?" Song Wei turned his head and asked Deputy Marshal Kang Chengyu. In general. If the marshal is seriously ill or dies suddenly, the position left behind will be held by the deputy marshal or the Jiedu Sima. At present, Song Wei wants to accept Li Jing as his righteous son. This is not only a big deal for Song Wei, but also a big deal for the Pinglu Army and Ziqing Town. Li Jing is not an ordinary person, he is a handsome son, so in the entire Ziqing Town, his status is not the same. For the old brothers, Song Wei had to ask them.
Kang Chengyu is older than Song Wei, he is not greedy for the position that remains behind, with his age, it is difficult for him to take over this position. What's more, the Kang family had just had an incident a few years ago, and even if Song Wei gave him this position, the imperial court might not necessarily let him take over. What's more, there is no Li Jing, and there is also a Cui Yunqing who has great power in Ziqing Town. In this case, it is better to be a favor.
"If it can be done, it's a good thing, and I'm in favor of it." Kang Chengzhi said directly.
"If Ben Shuai accepts Li Jing as his adopted son, do you agree?" Song Wei looked at the others again.
The marshal, the deputy marshal and the supervising military envoy all agreed, and although Jiedu Sima was not there, he was Li Jing's teacher, so he would naturally agree. In this way, several people from the Shuaifu and the Military Supervision Yuan agreed, and what did these staff generals have to say, they naturally agreed at the moment.
Song Wei felt a lot more relaxed, and the stone that had been pressed in his heart finally landed, and at that moment, Ha Lu Ha Da Lu smiled and said: "Judge Lei, I bother you to go back to Dengzhou immediately, and go back to Qingzhou on the way first." Invite Cui Sima to go to Dengzhou together, and then invite King Zhao to meet Li Jing when he arrives in Dengzhou. ”
Ray just received this order, and hurried back that day. went to Qingzhou first, found Cui Yunqing and told her about it, Cui Yunqing was naturally surprised. After Li Jing half-forcibly seized the position of Dengzhou Assassin, Cui Yunqing was sandwiched between Li Jing and Song Wei, and felt a little troublesome.
On one side, Song Wei is both a boss and an ally, while Li Jing on the other side is his protégé. Li Jing and Song Wei are not in harmony, and he is the saddest thing first. Previously, after Li Jing obtained the position of assassin, he took out a lot of money, food, and ordnance to Song Wei, and Cui Yunqing was already a little happy, after all, this was Li Jing's repair and easing the relationship with Song Wei. Now Song Wei is going to accept Li Jing as his righteous son again, and this matter is finally developing in the direction of good luck.
On the same day, Cui Yunqing rushed to Dengzhou with Lei Gang. Seeing that Lei Gang went and returned, Li Jingben was still a little surprised. When he heard Cui Yunqing relay that Song Wei wanted to accept Li Jing as his adopted son, he was even more surprised.
Li Jing was still surprised, but Li Zhen, Li Liang, and Guo Chengan all stood up immediately and said loudly: "Junhou, this is a great thing, agree, of course you have to agree!" ”
At this time, Li Jing finally knew from Cui Yunqing's mouth that this matter was true, and after thinking about it a few times, Li Jing nodded and agreed.
On May 18, the 15th year of Xiantong, General Jinwu, Marquis of Wuning, the right servant of the school Shangshu, the envoy of the Lu Army Festival of Ziqingping, and Song Wei of Qingzhou Assassin Shi officially accepted the champion general, General Jinwu, Zhendong Hou, Zhendong Military Envoy, and Dengzhou Thorn Shi Li Jing as the righteous son!
When the news came out, the officers and men of the Zhendong Army were very happy.
In the late Tang Dynasty, it was a very common phenomenon to accept a righteous son, and no one would say that being a righteous son was an inferior situation. There are even some generals who have hundreds of righteous sons, and there are righteous sons in the fifth generation, that is, the elite troops under Li Ke of the Jin army, and the thirteen Taibao used by Li Ke, the king of Jin, and only one of them is his own son.
The handsome Song Wei accepted Li Jing as his son, and the two were just the right age, and their status was okay. What makes the soldiers of the Zhendong Army happy is that after Li Jing became Song Wei's righteous son, he is now the young marshal of Ziqing Town. Because Song Wei has no children, although he has several grandchildren, they are all very old and far away in Beijing.
The military envoy of the Zhendong Army, the assassin of Dengzhou, the protector of Anton, and the young marshal of the Pinglu Army!
The young marshal is equal to the future marshal of Ziqing Town.
The news spread to all parts of Dengzhou, and those ordinary people and wealthy families were also relieved. Previously, Li Jing's army landed in Dengzhou, and then Song Wen handed over the position of assassin to Li Jing, and took all the departments of Dengzhou away, which in their eyes, this is Li Jing's forcible seizure of Dengzhou. Now Song Dashuai is busy exterminating Wang Jingwu, and he has no time to take care of Shangdengzhou, but everyone is worried, what if Dashuai quells the rebellion in Ziqi and then brings his troops back? At that time, there was a war and chaos, and everyone didn't have anything to do.
No one expected that Song Dashuai would actually accept Li Jing as a righteous son, and now that Dashuai and the county marquis have become father and son, this battle will definitely not start. The ordinary people of Dengzhou and the wealthy families are all relieved.
When Song Wei announced the news in the camp of the rebellion, the morale of the Pinglu army was even higher. Because in this way, everyone felt that the end of the rebel army was just around the corner. Regarding Li Jing's sudden becoming a young marshal, the army leaders did not dare to have other ideas except for some envy. After all, Li Jing's prestige is there, and no one dares to provoke Li Jing, who holds such a strong army as the Zhendong Army.
In Zizhou City, Wang Jingwu's broken arm is almost good, and he has installed an iron hook, although it looks a little weird, but he is in a good mood these days. After escaping from Li Jing's men, he defeated the Pinglu army twice in succession. Although Zhang Chan suffered a defeat in the third time, he still killed nearly 2,000 enemies with 1,000 casualties against 1,000, which was a glorious defeat.
Recently, after the great drought in Shandong and Henan, there were famines, and many people were displaced, but Wang Jingwu took this opportunity to recruit enough young and strong men to serve as soldiers with only a little food.
At present, he has re-raised 30,000 horses, and just now he has also recruited dozens of bandits, mountain bandits, and horse thieves in Ziqi, adding up to 3,000 people. And just yesterday, the famous giant Hong Balang on both sides of the Yellow River led 800 horsemen to accept his surrender and belong to him, and the 800 horse thieves were formed as the hussar capital.
When he was happy, he suddenly got a report that Song Wei had accepted Li Jing as his righteous son, and Li Jing became the young marshal of Ziqing Town. (To be continued......)
