Chapter 68: Lu Xiangsheng
When Deng Jian and Wang Cheng entered the public housing, they found that Zhang Jingyi was already writing a pen in the public housing.
Zhang Jingyi's handwriting is not very good, and it can even be described as a dog crawling.
But so what?
At least at this time, Deng Jian smiled and said, "The Baihu's handwriting is really well written."
Zhang Jing looked up at him and said with a stern face: "Of course, the words "Baihu" are well written. Who told you to be the chief flag?"
Deng Jian: "…"
"I'm telling you to come in to tell you something, that is, now starting from the beginning, the hundreds of households need to practice. Today we beat the people of the Dongchang. Although Your Majesty is willing to protect him, the Dongchang may also be able to treat him by his own way."
"Ah..." Wang Cheng couldn't help but worry: "What Baihu means is that they will also do whatever they want?"
Zhang Jing nodded: "It is very likely that Dongchang will suffer a loss? But... I think their revenge will not come so quickly. After all... if it is too early, it will seem that they are taking revenge."
This matter... Zhang Jingyi didn't dare to be careless. He knew that Wei Zhongxian would never disobey Emperor Tianqi, so he naturally didn't worry that Wei Zhongxian would dare to attack him.
But this does not mean that your Jinyiwei can practice, but their East Factory cannot practice.
"So... we have to be prepared and we need to train a elite soldier of hundreds of battles. Otherwise, we deserve it if we are confiscated."
"Training troops? This... I know a little bit, why don't I do it?" Deng Jian cheered up and immediately recommended himself.
"This..." Zhang Jingyi looked embarrassed.
"What?" Deng Jian glared: "Does the hundred households have any hidden secrets? I'm not afraid, you can say whatever you want."
Zhang Jing sighed in his heart and said, "Then General Deng Qi, don't blame me for speaking honestly. You are not worthy of training troops!"
Deng Jian's face suddenly turned red to his ears, and he couldn't help but mutter: "Don't be honest in the future, you can be more tactful. But I'm not bragging, the people in these hundred households are all crooked, and only Mr. Wang and Mr. Wang still know a little about the military tactics. If we don't come, who will come?"
yes.
This is the most headache.
Zhang Jingyi needs to cultivate a group of talents. The first thing is to make these lieutenants and strong men obey him. If they want to follow his words, they must first establish prestige and establish this prestige. Zhang Jingyi took the risk of offending Wei Zhongxian.
But it's not enough to follow the plan.
After all, even if he is a group of gentle sheep, no matter how devoted he is to him and bow his head, what is the use of him asking for a group of sheep?
What he wants is a pack of wolves.
But where can I find someone to train wolves?
The East Factory is eyeing it now, so we can't let these guys attack you. When the hometown is confiscated, the Jinyiwei households... I'm afraid they won't have the shame to continue doing it.
Zhang Jingyi couldn't help but sigh. At this time, he really needed talents. Although his two righteous brothers were devoted to him, their talents... he was unsure!
It’s not that these two people are useless, but that Zhang Jingyi has high requirements. After all, he has to raise a group of wolves in a short period of time to cope with possible hidden dangers in the future.
Just when Zhang Jingyi was frowning.
Suddenly, Jiang Jian hurried in and said, "A hundred households, there is a scholar outside asking for a visit."
"Scholar?" Zhang Jing immediately pulled down his face when he heard the scholar: "I am not a scholar... Who is this person?"
"He claimed that his surname was Lu and his name was Sheng."
Zhang Jingyi: “…”
Lu Xiangsheng?
Why did Lu Xiangsheng come to the capital?
Oh, yes, he seemed to have recommended him at the beginning. Could it be that His Majesty really cared about his recommendation and promoted Lu Xiang to official position?
This Lu Xiangsheng was a strange creature in the late Ming Dynasty. In short, it was very powerful.
Now Lu Xiangsheng is the prefect of Daming Prefecture, which is not far from the capital...
Yes, he must have recommended Lu Xiangsheng. Lu Xiangsheng has risen to the top. He heard that it was his recommendation, so he came excitedly to thank him.
This man is quite conscientious.
Zhang Jingyi immediately said happily: "Please, please hurry up."
Zhang Jingyi originally thought that Lu Xiangsheng must have been wearing a new official suit and a black hat, coming in in full spirit, and then greeting him happily.
This Lu Xiangsheng was originally a fifth-rank magistrate, but now he has risen to the top. I am afraid he is at least a fourth-rank official...
But……
Zhang Jingyi couldn't help but rub her eyes.
The person who came in was wearing a shabby Lun towel and a washed white Confucian shirt. How could he say that, he was very thin and looked very tired, as if he was overly indulging in desire. His face seemed to have not been washed for a long time, anyway... it was very shabby.
"Student Lu Xiangsheng met Zhang Baihu."
"Is it Magistrate Lu?" Zhang Jing joined together and greeted him with a smile. This is a legendary figure. Zhang Jingyi has always admired this person very much.
However, Lu Xiangsheng's face pulled down, showing a shame: "It's no longer the governor Lu."
"Oh?" Zhang Jing said: "I wonder if any promotion is now?"
Lu Xiangsheng was silent for a moment.
Then he said: "I have been dismissed from office!"
Zhang Jingyi: “…”
Damn it!
Stop... I'm in office!
Seeing Zhang Jingyi's face was shocked.
Lu Xiangsheng said seriously: "A few days ago, the student was a famous prefect. Although he had no achievements, he had no mistakes. But he didn't know when he violated the villain."
"Little man?" Zhang Jingyi felt that he was not smart enough.
"Yes, it was just a villain. Suddenly, it seemed like the world was in chaos. First, the Northern Zhili Administration Commission rebuked the students for their ineffective governance. The students were about to explain, but they expected that... there were seven or eight censors in the court who jointly submitted a memorial saying that the students were corrupt and abused the law in Daming Mansion. The students immediately prepared to submit a memorial to defend themselves. Then, this year, the Beijing Administrative Office gave the students the best..."
When Lu Xiangsheng talked about this, he became angry.
I, Lu Xiangsheng, was a good official. Although I was not lucky and couldn't become a Hanlin student, I was still a local parent. I thought my political achievements were pretty good, but I turned around and was attacked by a crowd of people, especially the Beijing Camp... In other words, the court's assessment of officials was directly decided, which was probably: I had poor abilities, bad morality, and poor morality.
Can Lu Xiangsheng endure it?
Lu Xiangsheng said this and looked indignant: "It's fine. The student hasn't figured out what's going on. Suddenly, the Dongchang sent a letter to the student and arrested the student directly to the capital. He asked the student in all kinds of questions. The student stayed in the Dongchang for seven days, but there was no result there. Just after the Dongchang came out, the Ministry of Personnel issued another note and told the student that because the student was a mediocre official, although no bad record was found,... since the student did not seem to have found any corruption and abuse of power, and the students had several entresponsible students in the court in the same year, so... although they did not punish them, they were still dismissed."
"Since entering the court, the students have governed one party for the court. They have never cared about the struggles in the court. They only want to benefit one party for their parents. But they never thought that they were so honest and well-behaved, but for some reason, they had committed this damn villain and ended up today."
"Ah..." Zhang Jing's eyes were straight, and for no reason, she felt guilty.
Villain? Which villain?
When he saw Lu Xiangsheng grinning his teeth, he seemed to be extremely angry. At this time, he wanted to call his two righteous brothers immediately and come to protect him quickly.
"I wonder who Mr. Lu Zhi... has Mr. Lu offended?"
"Who else?" Lu Xiangsheng clenched his fists, and the Vajra looked angry, gritting his teeth.
Zhang Jing shivered in her heart, is he here to seek revenge?
But he heard Lu Xiangsheng say, "Of course it's the eunuch Wei Zhongxian!"
Zhang Jingyi: “…”
Zhang Jing suddenly felt relieved.
At this time, I was still in the mood to joke in my heart: I don’t allow you to say that Eunuch Wei, he is my close friend.
Lu Xiangsheng continued: "It's not that Wei Zhongxian, who in the world has such ability to mobilize the East Factory, the Ministry of Personnel, so many censors, and even the General Secretary of the Northern Zhili?"
Zhang Jingyi said solemnly: "Well... Mr. Lu is indeed extremely wise... but I don't know why Mr. Lu came here?"
"There is only one reason." Lu Xiangsheng said seriously: "I have been dismissed from an official position, and now I am very down and want to go back to my hometown, but I just want to go back to work as a teacher. But today, I heard that Zhang Baihu actually attacked Dongchang with people, and Zhang Baihu is very brave. As the saying goes: repaying grievances with directness and repaying kindness with kindness. I came here especially because I admire Zhang Baihu and am willing to serve Zhang Baihu and repaying grievances with directness!"
