Because Wang Shichong, who was able to take care of the driver, also served as an envoy for Jiangdu palace supervisor, and he was mainly responsible for Jiangdu's military affairs in terms of local affairs, so his administrative office and county magistrate's office were in Jiangdu city.
Jiangdu has been a prosperous and prosperous place since ancient times, with developed commerce and trade, there are many residents in the city, and there are naturally many more pedestrians on the road than in ordinary county towns. With a thorn as thick as a wrist inserted into his back, he knelt under the steps of the gate of Wang Shichong’s Juncheng Mansion, shouting apologies for the thorn. Of course, the sensational effect was like throwing a bomb into the toilet—full of weight ! Almost in the blink of an eye, the surroundings of Qian Xiangmin and He Er became full of people watching the excitement, and the number was still increasing rapidly.
Of course, the most surprised ones were the guards at the gate of Jiangdu County’s Prime Minister’s Mansion. They all knew about Qian Xiangmin’s identity. When they saw a majestic court official suddenly take off his clothes and kneel in front of the door with thorns on his back, all the guards were inevitably wide-eyed. His eyes were full of confusion, so he quickly asked what Qian Xiangmin meant by doing this? Qian Xiangmin, on the other hand, was in distress, and he didn't even dare to call himself an official position. He just kowtowed and shouted: "Please tell my uncle Wang Shichong that Qian Xiangmin has come to plead guilty for his close friend Chen Yingliang! "
There were already huge crowds of people watching the people. Some servants tried to help Qian Xiangmin, but Qian Xiangmin struggled and refused. He just shouted to see Wang Shichong. The old Wang family who happened to be in the lobby were dumbfounded after hearing the report, and hurriedly surrounded Wang Shichong to check the situation. At the same time, people in the backyard who heard the noise in front also had to come out to check the situation, including Wang Shichong's wife.
Looking out of the gate, besides seeing the crowded crowd, Wang Shichong immediately saw Qian Xiangmin kneeling at the bottom of the steps with a braid on his back, and he hurried down to help Qian Xiangmin, surprised He asked: "Qian Canjun, what are you doing? You are a majestic court official, how can you behave like this?"
"Uncle Wang, you are wrong." Qian Xiangmin suppressed his embarrassment and corrected loudly: "My nephew is not visiting you as an official of the imperial court, but as a citizen of Henan County in the Sui Dynasty. I apologize to you!"
"Qian Joining the Army, what do you mean?" Wang Shichong was completely confused by Qian Xiangmin's correction. Wang Shiyun, Wang Shiwei and other members of the Wang family also looked at each other in blank dismay, not understanding what tricks Qian Xiangmin was playing.
"Uncle, please call my nephew's name Qian Xiangmin." Qian Xiangmin corrected loudly again, and said loudly: "As for why my nephew calls himself a junior? It's because my nephew and Chen Yingliang are from the same town in Henan County, and they lived in the East Friends who fought side by side during the Great War, lived and died together, are like brothers and sisters, and my nephew is of the same generation as him, so in front of you, uncle, you naturally have to call yourself a junior!"
"What do you mean?" Wang Shichong became even more confused, and said in doubt: "Even if you and Fushi Chen are of the same generation, but I am also of the same generation as him?"
"Wang Juncheng made a mistake again. Chen Yingliang is your junior, and will always be your junior!" Qian Xiangmin retorted loudly, but in his heart he scolded Chen Sangliang for being not only devoid of conscience, but also worse than a beast—even his distant niece You can do it!
"Why do I become more and more confused the more I listen to what you say?" Wang Shichong became even more confused, so he had to help Qian Xiangmin himself, and said, "Okay, let's not delve into the issue of seniority for now, don't kneel here , If you have something to say, go in and say it, don’t make it like this in public, what kind of words are you talking about?”
Wang Shichong, who dreamed that everyone in the world would kneel and crawl at his feet, seldom really helped someone get up. Our Qian Xiangmin joined the army but refused to accept it. He struggled to get up, and said loudly: "No! My nephew must I want to say here that my nephew will plead guilty to you on behalf of Chen Yingliang in front of the entire Jiangdu people, and plead guilty to you on behalf of Chen Yingliang!"
Wang Shichong couldn't help Qian Xiangmin after a few times, so he had no choice but to say in a fit of anger: "Okay, then you can kneel here if you like! Say, why are you pleading guilty to me for Chen Yingliang?! "
"For..." Qian Xiangmin hesitated as soon as he spoke, because there were too many Jiangdu people watching the excitement nearby, no matter how thick-skinned Qian Xiangmin was, he was too embarrassed to say too much in front of so many people. direct. But there is no way to go back to the business without pleading guilty. In desperation, Qian Xiangmin could only stammer and say: "Uncle, my nephew pleaded guilty to you on behalf of brother Chen Yingliang, because of the last Huaishui war..."
"Oops! Why is this envoy sent by Boy Chen so stupid? How dare you even say such things in public?"
Wang Shichong was taken aback, and said that Qian Xiangmin pleaded guilty for Chen Yingliang for all kinds of things that happened during the last Huaishui War, in exchange for sending troops to the north regardless of previous suspicions. When Duan Qian Xiangmin said, he quickly said: "So it's that matter, needless to say, I already knew about it!"
"Uncle, you already knew?" Finally it was Qian Xiangmin's turn to be surprised, he quickly raised his head, and asked in surprise, "You really already knew?"
"Understood, I understand." What Wang Shichong was afraid of was that Qian Xiangmin would reveal in public the intrigue he had with Chen Yingliang back then, using each other and framing each other. Got it, it's been so long, why do you still mention him?"
"It's no wonder that you can be the magistrate of Jiangdu County, and you can also serve as the supervisor of Jiangdu Palace. You really have a city mansion and a sense of style!" Qian Xiangmin admired Wang Shichong very much, and said in his heart that if such a bad thing happened to me, he wouldn't take that It's no wonder that the bastard was chopped up. This Wang Shichong knew it well a long time ago, but he can still bear it until now, which is amazing!
After admiring, Qian Xiangmin breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that since Wang Shichong knew about it, he wouldn't have to suffer too much this time. Reassured, Qian Xiangmin hurriedly kowtowed and said, "Uncle, since you already knew about it, my nephew will apologize to you on behalf of his brother Chen Yingliang. Please treat me as him and beat me up as you want. I beat him to death, and I am willing! Chen Yingliang is my brother, if he did something wrong, I will take the responsibility for him."
Sure enough, Wang Shichong smiled and said: "Okay, it's all in the past, what do you care about? Get up quickly, the old man doesn't care about it anymore."
"Uncle forgive me, my nephew can't forgive me yet." Qian Xiangmin still shook his head, and said respectfully: "Brother Chen asked me to apologize for him, he once said that only uncle you can forgive him personally, and forgive him in front of the whole world. For all his sins, my nephew can stand up for him, otherwise, my little nephew will never get up even if he kneels to death in front of you."
"Okay, okay." Wang Shichong had no choice but to say loudly with a wry smile: "Get up, I forgive him. I promise I won't pursue the wrong things he did before. Is this all right?"
"Thank you, Uncle." Qian Xiangmin, who said that he must suffer some hardships, was overjoyed, kowtowed again, and then struggled to stand up, but the kneeling time was a bit long, and Qian Xiangmin, who loves to put on airs, seriously lacked exercise His legs were a little numb, and he fell down when he stood halfway. Fortunately, Wang Shichong was in front of him, and he held him in time. Qian Xiangmin quickly thanked him and said, "Uncle Xie, by the way, Uncle Wang, you Are you planning to let my nephew pick up your daughter? Or send someone else to send her?"
"What do you mean? Why do I still not understand?" Wang Shichong was confused again.
"I didn't explain it clearly?" Qian Xiangmin was also confused, and asked suspiciously: "I'm asking, do you want me to bring Ling'ai Wang Xueji directly to Fushi Chen's side? Or do you arrange reliable personnel to take Ling Send love to Fushi Chen?"
"Why should I let Xue Ji go with you?" Wang Shichong blurted out in surprise.
"Wang Juncheng, you won't let your daughter go with us?" Qian Xiangmin was even more surprised, and blurted out: "But Fushi Chen counts the days, your daughter will be born next month? Don't you want your daughter to come with us?" Daughter staying in Jiangdu to have a baby?!"
With a bang, Wang Shichong's fist directly hit Qian Xiangmin's face, knocking Qian Xiangmin to the ground with one punch, and then Wang Shiyun, Wang Renze and other members of the Wang clan were also furious, and rushed up to Qian Xiangmin. It was just punching and kicking, and everyone shouted furiously, "Did the little thief Chen send you to plead guilty? Or did you send you to humiliate our Juncheng? Our Wang Juncheng's daughter is not married yet, how can she have a child?"
The passers-by and common people who were watching the excitement had already laughed, but Qian Xiangmin, who was beaten by the Wang family, screamed like a pig, "Wang Juncheng, please forgive me, Wang Juncheng, please forgive me. The person who said that your daughter is going to have a child is not a lowly official, but Chen Fufu!" Messenger! It was Chen Fushi who heard that your daughter, Miss Wang Xueji, was pregnant out of wedlock, so he sent me here... Oh, please! Please! I am hurting to death!"
The laughter of passers-by and ordinary people was like a wave, and countless people laughed directly to tears. Even the servants of Jiangdu County's Chengfu couldn't help covering their mouths and sniggering. Unable to stop, he hurriedly pushed away a group of relatives, grabbed Qian Xiangmin by the collar, and picked up Qian Xiangmin, who had been beaten bruised and swollen. First, he slapped Qian Xiangmin hard enough to shut up. With red eyes, he roared: "Go back and tell Chen Yingliang, the little thief! If he dares to talk nonsense again, slander and humiliate this official, even if his official position is higher than mine, and his power is greater than mine, I will also impeach him. Please The emperor asks the court to uphold justice for me!"
"Wang Juncheng, our Vice Envoy Chen didn't humiliate you." Qian Xiangmin, who was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, cried out to Min, and said with tears: "Wang Juncheng, your daughter was pregnant before marriage. We have already found out the news, and we will never... .”
Qian Xiangmin's tearful cry was interrupted by Wang Shichong's big slap, and the common people and passers-by who watched the excitement laughed so much that some of them fell to the ground. When he turned his head to look, he saw that Wang Shichong's wife was covering her face in front of the door and crying. Wang Shichong felt even more distressed when he saw it. He couldn't help kicking Qian Xiangmin again, and shouted with blood red eyes, " Put your mother's dog fart! Who said that my daughter was pregnant before marriage?"
Qian, who was about to be beaten to death, howled like a pig being slaughtered by the people, and cried out: "Wang Juncheng, you can't cover the fire with paper, why are you hiding it? Don't talk about your daughter in Jiangdu City, even our Qiaojun Yong The city knows."
Wang Shichong's wife burst into tears. In a fit of rage, she rushed forward and beat and kicked Qian Xiangmin herself, crying, "You man! You're talking nonsense! You're talking nonsense! Who said my daughter got pregnant before she was married?" ? Who said my daughter is going to give birth? My daughter is just sick and can’t go out for the time being. If you dare to tarnish her reputation, I will tear your mouth apart with my own hands!”
"Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Wang, don't be sad, don't be sad." Qian Xiangmin was completely beaten, so he could only shout: "Don't worry, your daughter is pregnant, but..."
"Fuck! Have you had enough?" Wang Shichong was completely mad, and picked up Qian Xiangmin again, grabbed Wang Renze's unsheathed sword, and raised the sword and shouted: "If you dare to say a word about my daughter, I will kill you now!"
Seeing Wang Shichong furious, and seeing the sharp sword raised above his head, Qian Xiangmin hurriedly shut up, while Wang Shichong yelled again: "Go back and tell Chen Yingliang, the little thief, I have made a deal with this Liangzi!" I will write a memorial to impeach him, and if the court doesn’t care, I will go to Pengcheng to find him and fight for my life!”
Qian Xiangmin, who was already bleeding from his head, also cried out, and said with great aggrievedness: "Wang Juncheng, why are you doing this? Our Deputy Minister Chen didn't say he was not responsible? He really couldn't get away, or sooner I came to kowtow to your father-in-law to apologize, and he also said that he is sorry for your daughter, but he will definitely be responsible to the end, even if it is a side room, she will not be wronged in the slightest."
Wang Shichong's angry expression froze on his face, and all the members of the Wang family present were dumbfounded. Wang Shichong's wife was also tongue-tied and forgot to cry, and then quickly recovered, tremblingly asked: "What do you mean? My daughter is pregnant , was it done by your Deputy Envoy Chen?"
Qian Xiangmin nodded with a mournful face, and said with snot and tears, "That's why he asked me to come and plead guilty, and by the way beg to marry Miss Wang, Mrs. Wang, Chen Yingliang is my fellow countryman and my brother, he can't get away Here, if you want to vent your anger, hit me, even kill me, whoever called me..., who called..., who called me and him are brothers?"
As he said that, Qian Xiangmin really burst into tears, but Wang Shichong's wife calmed down and asked suddenly, "How old is your deputy Chen? How many wives and concubines do you have? What is your official position? Do you have a title?"
"Our Vice Envoy Chen is only nineteen years old this year." Qian Xiangmin replied weeping, "He has only one wife who has never been married, and no other concubines. The governor of the county, the title is the Marquis of Xuchang personally conferred by the emperor."
Wang Shichong's wife, who was crying so hard just now, suddenly laughed, and complained with a smile: "Then you should tell me earlier? How about telling me clearly? Yes, you are in the right family and you are very similar in age. I promise... Wait a minute, you Fushi Chen What is your appearance? Is it ugly or handsome?"
"This..." Qian Xiangmin was a little dumbfounded, thinking how should I answer this? To be honest, Chen Yingliang is not as handsome as I am, so this marriage will be ruined immediately
"Mrs. Wang, please rest assured." Fortunately, Chen Yingliang also sent a more reliable little bandit soldier, He Er, who hurried up and replied truthfully: "Mrs. Wang, our Deputy Chen is from the 12th county of Henan Province." The handsome young man recognized by Jiaqiao County, even though he has already engaged in marriage, there are still many rich families who propose marriage, wanting to offer their daughters to our Deputy Chen as a concubine, but our Deputy Envoy is busy with official duties, so none of them agreed. Also, Wang Juncheng has also met our Deputy Chen, if you don’t believe me, you can ask him directly, if the little one dares to tell half a lie, you will kill the little one immediately!"
Wang Shichong's wife quickly turned her attention to Wang Shichong, but Wang Shichong was embarrassed and hesitant, finally nodded, and said, "Yes, Chen Yingliang is worthy of Xue Ji regardless of his appearance and family background, and I have also mentioned to him about Xue Ji. Ji's matter is that I don't know what medicine Xue Ji took wrongly, but she refused. Now it seems that she should be angry with that kid."
Of course, Wang Shichong's wife knew about her daughter's stubborn temper, and she suddenly realized why her daughter refused to confess the culprit—she was still angry! Then Wang Shichong's wife was not polite, and immediately ran back to her home to find her daughter to verify the facts, her footsteps seemed very brisk - although Wang Xueji could only be a partial house if she married Wang Xueji, but the result still made Wang Xueji have an unmarried child. A hundred times, it is enough to satisfy Wang Shichong's wife who was once completely desperate.
Wang Shichong's wife walked away briskly, but Qian Xiangmin, who was still grabbed by the collar by Wang Shichong, was still in fear, and asked Wang Shichong cautiously: "Wang Juncheng, what are you doing about your daughter and our Fushi Chen..., what are you going to do?" ?”
The onlookers stopped laughing long ago. Although there were still many passers-by with smiles on their faces, they no longer had the mocking and sneering expressions they had before, which made Wang Shichong feel a little better. After careful recollection, Wang Shichong quickly I realized that what happened today was a complete misunderstanding, and I blamed myself for interrupting Qian Xiangmin's words in a hurry. No wonder Qian Xiangmin didn't speak clearly, so the anger in my chest dissipated. Then Wang Shichong put down Qian Xiangmin, threw the sword back to Wang Renze, and shouted viciously, "Come in and tell me!"
"Thank you Wang Juncheng." Qian Xiangmin, whose face was covered with snot, saliva and blood, breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly ordered He Er to call other followers to bring proposal gifts, and went into the mansion with him to propose marriage.
Of course, the hard work of suppressing rebellion and banditry in the past few years is not in vain. Of course, Chen Sangliang, who even has to buy a mobile phone with public funds, is not very clean. There are 300 pieces of silk, 500 copper coins, and countless silks and satins, jewelry and clothing, as well as gold and silver jewelry, which are piled up in the front yard of Wang Shichong's mansion. After seeing this generous gift, the people who watched the excitement were envious. Wang Shichong also nodded slightly, and said to himself: "Stinky boy! You still have a little sincerity!"
"Brother, good thing." Even Wang Shiyun, who hated Chen Yingliang the most, came up and whispered in Wang Shichong's ear: "Although Chen Yingliang is hateful, his backing is strong, and he has a good relationship with him. It will only benefit us and not harm us.”
Wang Shichong nodded, and ordered in a low voice: "Send down the order and start preparing for the expedition immediately. When I have finished with Xue Ji, we will send troops to the north to wipe out Yan Xuanzheng."
…
Almost at the same time, the latest issue of the Mansion Newsletter was finally sent to Pengcheng, and to Chen Yingliang who was waiting hard. Seeing that the news of Sui Yang Emperor's northern tour of Shanxi finally appeared on the Mansion Newspaper, Chen Yingliang let out a long slack. He breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that his hard work during this time was not in vain, as long as history develops according to the normal track, he would have the hope of escaping from this hopeless Qingxu Shandong battlefield.
Under secret joy, Chen Yingliang hurriedly summoned Yuan Tiangang, Wei Zheng, Changsun Wuji, Ma Sanbao, Cheng Yaojin and other civil and military personnel, and ordered to immediately start preparations for the expedition, announcing that the main force would be dispatched to the north in the near future to attack Wagang, the lair of the Wagang Army. Village, and asked to prepare two months of food and grass in preparation for a long-term war.
The main team had been idle for a long time, Cheng Yaojin, Ma Sanbao, Kan Leng and other generals had been impatiently waiting for a long time, of course they were all smiles and high-fived when they heard Chen Yingliang's order. But Wei Zheng, Yuan Tiangang and other civil officials were a little confused, and they all asked Chen Yingliang: "Deputy envoy, isn't Wagang village too far away from Pengcheng? Is it necessary to prepare two months of food and grass?"
"Siege the stronghold to fight for aid, this time we will use the tactic of encircling the stronghold to fight for aid." Chen Yingliang said in a decent way: "Wagang bandits fled to Liang, Dong, and Xingyang counties, and occasionally fled to Jiyin county. If we go to their main force for a decisive battle, we will only be dragged around by them, and we are not sure if we are exhausted, so I plan to surround the Wagang thief's lair for a long time, take the family members of the traitors inside as hostages, and force the Wagang thief to return to the army Rescue the lair, we will fight head-on with ease and wait for work, and breaking the thief is easy!"
The tactic Chen Yingliang mentioned was very confusing and very operable. Of course Wei Zheng, Yuan Tiangang and others nodded their heads when they heard it, but they didn't notice that seventy miles away from the north of Wagangzhai, there was a It is the famous Baimadu! And after crossing the Yellow River from Baima, the Sui army in Qiaojun took Hanoi again, and it only took three days to set foot in Shanxi!
