That person was none other than Gu Siyi, who had not been seen for many days.

Behind her, more than a dozen family members lined up in two rows in the courtyard, and there were maids and servants behind her, all kinds of people, hanging their hands respectfully,

Gu Siyi saw Chang Sihao, lowered his head, and said, "Chitose,"

Liu Jinwu saw Chang Sihao stunned, and laughed: "Please come inside,"

When the two of them arrived at the main hall, Chang Sihao saw that all kinds of furniture and supplies were selected by him when he went shopping some time ago, and asked, "Could this be your home?"

Liu Jinwu smiled: "It's not my family, it's your family,"

Chang Sihao said: "What kind of joke are you talking about,"

Liu Jinwu explained: "This house was originally one of Yan Song's many mansions in Beijing, after his downfall, the family property was sold out, and the small mansion was mostly bought by rich merchants, this place is larger, no one can afford to buy it, and it has been empty, the emperor wants to reward it to meritorious officials, it just so happens that you also need to have a place to live in Beijing, so I will give it to you, and those family members are also called casually, and all expenses are not your care,"

The two of them walked and watched, Gu Siyi accompanied each other after the fall, passed through the main hall, the small patio, and entered a courtyard, Chang Sihao was walking between, but seeing the courtyard wall connected to the house, Fangshan connected to the courtyard, there was a courtyard outside the courtyard, the courtyard was connected, very complicated and exquisite, and I couldn't help but sigh at the luxury of the Yan family, Liu Jinwu smiled: "There are too many courtyards, it is not easy to take care of them, and Sister Gu has been very busy these days," Gu Siyi said: "Jinwu, when will I go back to Xiyuan," Liu Jinwu smiled: " How can you leave here, sister, don't you understand, there is no you in this courtyard, how can it be called a big surprise," Gu Siyi covered his mouth and said: "You mean ......" His eyes looked at Chang Sihao, his eyes were slightly red, Liu Jinwu smiled and said: "You have to thank me for this, if I didn't push this matter in front of the emperor, my sister would have been in Xiyuan all her life, it would be very painful," Chang Sihao said happily: "It's okay now, sister, we should really celebrate," Liu Jinwu said: " Exactly, sister, what about the firecrackers I bought, take them out," Gu Siyi said: "In the warehouse, isn't that to be put off for the New Year," Liu Jinwu smiled: "Putting firecrackers is to be happy, don't put them when you are happy, when to put them, listen to me, come on,"

The three of them summoned the family yard to take the pole and hang the cannon, and not long after erecting two rows of more than ten thousand miles of red at the door, Liu Jinwu personally stepped forward to light it, and in an instant, there was a loud bang, the golden crack was born, and the whole alley was filled with gunsmoke, and it was very lively.

In the sound of firecrackers, Liu Jinwu retreated to the steps, stabbed Chang Sihao with the tip of his elbow, and shouted: "Big brother," Chang Sihao: "Ah," Liu Jinwu squeezed his eyes and smiled evilly: "Take advantage of this happy day, take Sister Gu into the room," Chang Sihao laughed and said: "Don't talk nonsense," Looking back, Gu Siyi under the door covered his ears with both hands, and his eyelashes were a little happy and wet, as if he hadn't heard anything, he looked at himself, and also looked back, smiled, and went to see the sparks of firecrackers again,

The next morning, Chang Sihao got up to eat breakfast, and was thinking about going to the Hundred Swords League to see, a family member handed over a name sticker, reporting that Lord Qi came to visit the house, Chang Sihao was a little surprised, and hurriedly came to the front yard, and saw Qi Jiguang wearing casual clothes and carrying a waist knife, and was waiting, hurriedly rushing out a few steps forward to give a salute, Qi Jiguang was also a little surprised, and saluted back: "How to work Chitose to greet him in person, it is really frustrating Yuan Jing," Chang Sihao said: " Why did Lord Qi say this, you are the pillar of the country, Chang Sihao has always admired it tightly, but unfortunately he didn't get it yesterday, and he still wanted to find a chance to meet the adult, but he didn't expect you to come first,"

Qi Jiguang waved his hand and thanked him: "What is the pillar of the country, don't dare to be, Yuan Jing has heard that Chitose is outside Datong City, led a hundred horsemen to rush to the camp, drive herds, break Dazhai, and bombard the Chinese army.

The corners of Chang Sihao's mouth twitched, his face turned colder, and he smiled lightly: "Praise your lord, please inside,"

"Please,"

The two walked side by side, Qi Jiguang noticed that the sycophant just now seemed to be shooting wrong, stabilized his mind, and said with a smile: "I remember seventeen years ago, I took the martial arts exam, entered the Beijing examination, and was just in time for me to attack Beijing, so I guarded the nine gates in the city to assist in the defense.

I saw Chang Sihao said lightly: "The Tartars are skilled in archers and horses, fighting on the open field, our army has little chance of winning, and taking the defensive position is the correct strategy,"

Qi Jiguang's eyes lit up slightly: " Chitose is really good at fighting and knowing the soldiers, in a word, at that time, there were a lot of empty salaries in the army, the number of soldiers was insufficient, and there was a lack of training, and unlike now, there are firecrackers, and artillery, some people ignore the situation in the army, and the courage of the blood and blood wants to send troops to fight against me, I twice wrote to Chen to say the benefits and disadvantages, and put forward a defensive strategy, fortunately, the first emperor agreed to adopt, so that the Beijing division could be preserved, and afterwards the people of the court praised the wisdom of the first emperor, but I was scolded by several main battles in the same period.

Chang Sihao thought that your mouth became fast, and said with a smile: "Being scolded by a few people, it is better than being complained by 10,000 people after the city is broken, you can't judge the situation, how can you be regarded as a soldier, the adults later went to Shandong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other places to rectify the defense, resist the Japanese and kill the enemy, in a few years, angrily seized Cen Gang, turned to Taizhou, raided Hengyu, fought Putian, beheaded more than 60,000 people, and finally swept away the Japanese in one fell swoop, the official was promoted to the general army, commanded the military affairs of Fujian, Zhejiang and Guangdong, and the name was spread all over the world, it can be said that he lived up to the ambition of the husband, and those martial arts that scolded you, where are they now?"

Qi Jiguang's deeds spread all over the countryside, everyone knows, especially the Taizhou Jiujie battles, the capture of Hong Kong and the island, the strange tricks, but also his life is proud, although he has long been accustomed to hearing praise, often Sihao mentioned it in person, his heart is still very happy, hurriedly shook his hand and thanked him, the two chatted all the way about the military, but there was a bit of speculation, and went straight to the back garden, Chang Sihao remembered that he missed the living room, and was embarrassed to turn back, so he led him to the garden side to view the warm pavilion and sit down,

The servant offered tea and retreated, Qi Jiguang took out an envelope and put it on the table, pushed it closer with a smile and said: "Chitose is happy to enter the new house, Yuan Jing has a little courtesy, it is not a respect, please also ask Chitose to accept it with a smile,"

There were four words written on the envelope: "One hundred and two Qin Guan," Chang Sihao didn't know what he meant, picked it up and opened it, only to see a thick pile of silver tickets inside, not to mention a hundred, and said in surprise: "Why do you have to be like this, you can't accept this gift," he said and put down the envelope and pushed it back,

The rules of officialdom, the gift of wealth can not see the light, need to be set in the bag, write a few words on the cover, point out the amount of money inside, this secret language official mostly uses classic poems, Qi Jiguang is a general, with the metaphor of the military shape of the soldier, the Qin Dynasty is the country of victory, with the danger of mountains and rivers, there are 20,000 people guarding the royal foot to a million elite soldiers, so it is called "one hundred and two Qin Pass" , Written here means to send 20,000 silver, originally with today's market, the gift money is already extremely heavy, I expect Chang Sihao to see it will be greatly shocked, I didn't expect the other party to feel nothing, but also open it and then push back, this move is too outrageous,

After he was stunned for a moment, he immediately smiled again: "This little meaning is naturally not enough to honor Chitose, but Yuan Jing has not been in Beijing for a while, and he doesn't have it at hand for a while, and he still hopes that Chitose will be forgiving, and he will be able to make up for it again in the future," he pushed the envelope over again, Chang Sihao pressed the back of his hand: "Isn't it too little in the bottom, adults quickly put it away, don't let Chang Sihao be embarrassed," Qi Jiguang hesitated slightly, swept his eyes away, and saw that the back of his hand was darker, his knuckles were thick, and the veins on it were vertical and horizontal, which seemed extremely powerful, and his heart fell to the bottom, and he laughed again:" Yuan Jing has been in the south for a long time, and he doesn't know the wind and rain in the capital, so he will inevitably be taken care of by Chitose in the future.

Chang Sihao stared at him and his eyes suddenly rose: "Lord Qi, people say that there is no famous general after Yue Fei, only I am the Ming Qi Jiguang, when I was in the army, what everyone talked about the most was the deeds of you and Lord Yu in the coastal anti-Japanese war, and I have always respected you as a hero who killed the enemy for the country, but after entering Beijing, I heard that you like to make friends with powerful people and give gifts everywhere, I didn't believe it, but I didn't expect it to be the case, it's really disappointing,"

Qi Jiguang looked at him stunned for a long time, his eyes fell to the ground, and he let out a self-deprecating wry smile: "Heroes and heroes...... Oh, now I can't protect myself, every day is like sitting on pins and needles, and it's just a joke to say that I am a hero,"

Chang Sihao said: "Where do you start with this?"

Qi Jiguang sighed: "Chitose can know my current official position," Chang Sihao said: "Isn't it the general army of the three provinces," Qi Jiguang shook his head: "I have now been transferred to the Beijing Division and become the deputy general of the Shenji Battalion," Chang Sihao was a little surprised: "So what," Qi Jiguang said: "The Shenji Battalion is one of the three major battalions of the Gongwei of the Beijing Division, on the surface, it is more beautiful than me as a general soldier in the south, but there is no real power in my hands, and most of the generals in the battalion are the sons and daughters of famous ministers. The royal family, these people carry cages and birds all day long without learning and no skills, and make the camp a miasma, I can't control the above, I can't command the below, and I can only be helpless in the middle.

Chang Sihao couldn't believe it: "Your Excellency has outstanding military achievements and is well-known at home, who dares to frame you,"

Qi Jiguang saw the angry expression on his face, and couldn't help but feel happy, and still sighed astringently: "Don't you dare to say the word framed, just think that there is a misunderstanding of me, and the emperor proposed to transfer me to Beijing for Wu Shilai, I have won many victories in the south, and I have heavy troops, which is not surprising to cause the courtiers to worry, but this person said that I was dissatisfied with the court, implying that I had antipathy, which was really out of nowhere, alas......"

Chang Sihao said: "He can't falsely accuse people of innocence out of thin air," Qi Jiguang respectfully invited him to take a seat, and then said: " Chitose did not know, I was calm in Zhejiang, heard that Fujian was in an emergency, so I urgently dispatched troops to go, the first battle took the most difficult bone to gnaw on Hengyu Island, it was originally the base camp of the Japanese invaders, because of the advantageous land, easy to defend and difficult to attack, had made the Fujian army suffer a lot, swept here, the army and the people were all rejoicing, after the victory, I held a celebration banquet on the seaside, the moon was bright and clean, everyone sat on the ground, looked at the sea and watched the waves, flat wine and meat, and ate happily......" He said that there were two points of happiness here, he took a long breath, and his face became full of loneliness: "I didn't expect that someone at the banquet was drunk at that time, saying that my military achievements were really great, enough to be a marquis, and the emperor only named a chief military officer, which was not enough, and all the generals agreed to say yes, I got up on a whim and sang a song of "Triumph Song", "

Chang Sihao said: "The song of victory must be impassioned,"

Qi Jiguang shook his head and sighed: "If it weren't for this song, it wouldn't have caused so many things," Chang Sihao said: "Isn't it that there are taboo words in the song," Qi Jiguang smiled bitterly: "Whether it is a taboo or not, Yuan Jing is not easy to say, this short song is not long, I will chant, please judge Chitose," a little salute, chanted:" All the people are united, the mountains can be shaken, but loyalty and righteousness, angry bullfighting, the Lord will kiss me, better than parents, violate military law, the body is not free, the order is clear, reward and punishment letters, go to the water and fire, dare to stay late, report to the Son of Heaven, save the head of Qian, kill all the slaves, find a feudal marquis,"

Chang Sihao was silent for a moment when he heard this, and said: "Sure enough, I am angry at the bullfight, Wu Shi came to pick your reason, and it must be in the word Fenghou,"

Qi Jiguang said: "Chitose is wise, Wu Shilai really grasped these two words and made a big fuss, saying that his subordinates were so vainly discussing the monarch's wrongs, I didn't reprimand him harshly, but chanted this song, which was really an excuse to express his dissatisfaction with the emperor, and even expanded the controversy, stirred the hearts of the army, and encouraged his subordinates to complain and make chaos,"

Chang Sihao smiled: "Then Lord Qi, do you have the intention of being a marquis?"

Qi Jiguang's face changed color, and he got up and said: "Chitose Mingjian, there is really no such intention, Yuan Jing has a warm blood, only to serve the country and the people, singing this song at the banquet, it is a moment of drunkenness, and the generals are happy for a while, how can it vent dissatisfaction and blame the emperor,"

Chang Sihao thought to himself: "When I went south to Pingwa, you wrote the poem "Fenghou is not my will, but I wish Hai Boping" to Shu Zhiming's heart, these two poems have already spread all over the north and south of the river, which one does not know, which one does not know, and now he is 'looking for a feudal marquis', is it not a contradiction, if you don't have this heart, you can never talk about it, why write poems and never leave the marquis," smiled and said: "Lord Qi doesn't have to be like this, I have also been in the army, which small flag does not want to be the general flag, which general does not want to be a general,"

Qi Jiguang listened, and his face was embarrassed,

Chang Sihao's eyelids fell slightly, and he said indifferently: "This is human nature, Wu Shilai chews the root of your tongue according to this, it is useless, why should adults exaggerate to the point of sitting on pins and needles,"

Qi Jiguang sighed: "He joined me not only this one, but also said that my Zhejiang soldiers were called 'Qi Family Army', which was even more rebellious, the whole world is not the king's land, the shore of the land is not the king's minister, the army is the army of the country, the army of the Son of Heaven, how can it be called the reason of the Qi family's army, once it is instigated, a yellow robe will be added, and the consequences will be unimaginable,"

Chang Sihao smiled and said: "Back then, Yue Fei's soldiers were called 'Yue's Army', and I didn't see Qin Hui reprimanding him with this, Wu Shilai couldn't help but pick it too crooked,"

Qi Jiguang's eyes lit up, and he turned around and said gratefully: "Chitose Ming, among the six subjects, there are mostly such villains who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, these officials are incompetent, they will only complain in vain, sell their reputation, others are bloody in front of the battle, but they are piecing together right and wrong in the back, no matter whether they win or defeat, there is always something for them to say,"

Chang Sihao is no longer what it used to be, as soon as he heard him say this, he looked like he had met a bosom friend, and his heart had already raised his vigilance, and he said indifferently: "I have also heard some things about the official, but I think that the emperor has his own judgment, and he will not let anyone tell right and wrong,"

Qi Jiguang said: "Yes, yes, according to Wu Shilai, no one paid attention to these words, but he was able to pass the ministerial meeting, which has to make people suspect that there is something else in it, I don't know much about him, these days, I have checked and found out some details, and then I feel that something is wrong,"
