In December of Chongzhen's 10th year, on the official road of the town’s guards, a guard of hundreds of people was advancing towards the capital, and the leader was Yang Shanlu. Because it is almost the New Year, he is a guerrilla general. By the end of the year, I will report to the Ministry of War.
And on the way, Yang Shanlu was still thinking about the affectionate words that a beautiful woman said to him when he left the General’s Mansion... And the two have also agreed that they will wait until the Chinese New Year to pick a good day. Marrying her to the door makes a certain wise girl very happy.
In addition, there were three large carriages full of them in the team that accompanies this time. The cars were also full of loads, but they were not loaded with gold and silver jewelry, but were all fruits and vegetables! What kind of crispy cucumbers, fresh and tender chicken feathers, and even eight or nine big green watermelons among them!
And this is the result of Yangshan Lute zone. You must know that the output of his four greenhouses is very good now, and these things are definitely very rare in this winter!
So this time I went to Beijing, I brought a little bit of early adopters to my father Yang Sichang, including the emperor Chongzhen aloft. After all, when his life was dying this time, Chongzhen also cared very much.
Zhenluwei is still a long way from the capital. It will take three or four days. After leaving Zhenluwei, we can see that there are severe droughts along the way, and the pedestrians are full of food, which makes people feel very heavy. of.
And Yang Shanlu also knew that this was just a natural disaster, and in the autumn of next year, Gou Danzi will enter the customs in large numbers, and a bloody catastrophe will be revealed! And that is the real severe test! So when he went to the capital this time, he also had to carefully discuss the countermeasures with his father.
Three days later, Yang Shanlu and his party finally arrived in the capital. It had been several months since the last time they came. However, he looked at this world-famous city, the district of the first good, and his mood was a bit heavy...
Compared with the last time, there are more refugees outside the city. As for the official road, there are still a continuous stream of refugees, all with the old and the young, all coming in one after another, hoping to come to the feet of the emperor to ask for a bite. Yes, but now the capital itself is barely maintained. Where can it afford such a large population? This can be seen from the soldiers guarding the city or the refugees entering the city.
"Master, do it well, give me a bite—" At this time, there was a seven or eight-year-old girl who was so dirty that she couldn't see her true colors. Seeing that Yang Shanlu was so popular, she came over to beg.
"Hey—" Yang Shanlu couldn't bear to look at it, and his tears almost fell. He asked Liu Dabangma to give her seven or eight fragrant white-faced buns, but before more refugees came over, Yang Shanlu would Quickly order the team to leave.
Because he knows very well that his relief is a drop in the bucket, and he cannot afford so many people. In other words, in the face of such natural and man-made disasters, he must first prepare for war, and after defeating the invasion of the dog tart, then he will be well managed. Minsheng...
Yang Shanlu entered from the Yongding Gate in the south, because seeing them all riding high-headed horses, the headed Yang Shanlu was in a red official robe. The officers and soldiers who defended the city did not dare to stop them, so they nodded and bowed. They put it in.
After entering the city, the situation was only a little better. Although the refugees were stopped outside the city, the pedestrians who were seen on the road were all old-fashioned and dressed. The drought has profoundly affected them. Every corner of Daming...
Of course, the Ming Dynasty was born three hundred years ago, and it has been polarized. Among them, there are many wealthy and wealthy families who have been smashed and swaggered through the city. In general, Zhumen has stinky wine and meat, and there are frozen bones on the road. A large number of refugees are frozen to death every day outside the city. Starved to death, those wealthy and wealthy families are still spending their time!
After Yang Shanlu saw this scene, his eyebrows were frowned, and there was still a long way to go to govern the people's livelihood and govern this country. Of course, as a traverser, there are great responsibilities and great responsibilities. I'm going to go for a long time, and I will search for it up and down!
After entering the city, Yang Shanlu's first stop was to go to the Ministry of War to report on his duties, first to do business affairs, and then do housework.
The Ministry of War is not far from the Honghu Temple, just past the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry. When Yang Shanlu brought dozens of guards, including Liu Dabangma, to the entrance of the Yamen, he saw five or six capable men gathered by the gate. When an official came, they gathered around together to promote something.
Yang Shanlu was a little puzzled when he saw it, and at this time these people had already surrounded him, and one of them was already very diligent and said: "The official can borrow interest and debts. My master has been in the business for a long time, and his capital and interests are good..."
Yang Shanlu ignored him, but Liu Dabangma glared and pushed him away.
But this person was still not discouraged, and continued to shout: "Don't miss it when you pass by, it's a rare opportunity..."
Even after Yang Shanlu arrived at the gate, he was stopped by a door officer and several guards. After seeing Yang Shanlu's military status, he was allowed to go.
But the guy who put the stamp money directly followed in, but the door official didn’t seem to pay any attention at all. This person followed Yang Shanlu for a long time, just like Yang Shanlu’s guard, he saw Yang Shanlu. There was really no response, and then he sweared and left.
It’s just that when Yang Shanlu saw it, he frowned and thought deeply. This is no ordinary place. This is the Ministry of War of a country, the country’s most important place, but there is such a phenomenon...
The place where Yang Shanlu is going is the Wu Xuan Qing Li Department of the Ministry of War. The Wu Xuan Qing Li Department is responsible for the appointment and dismissal of the officers of the Ming Dynasty, the assessment and awarding of honours, the promotion of rank, the transfer of personnel, and so on. The power is not small. Wai Lang, although he only has the official title of the fifth rank and from the fifth rank, he is a fat man and has great power.
At this time, Wu Xuanqing’s official duty room was guarded by a member of the surname Wang Wailang. At this moment, he was piercing Yang Shanlu's nose and piercing eyes. The reason is simple. Yang Shanlu's official document procedures are all right. It's him. I didn't understand the'rules' and didn't take care of him. This made this member of the foreign Lang Lei Ting furious... He really is a country bun, and he doesn't understand the rules at all.
Seeing this member Wailang reprimand Yang Shanlu, several other officials also quietly avoided.
But seeing this scene, Yang Shanlu frowned, and arranged such a thing in such an important place. It seems that he really needs to remind him of his father. As a Shangshu of the Ministry of War, although he doesn't care about the specifics anymore. It’s a business, but don’t let this kind of villain run wild...
Not to mention that all the ripping off is knocking on this young master? Believe it or not, this young master will knock you out of the nine hells
Then this member of the wailang is still alive and dead, and seeing Yang Shanlu is still not awake. Needless to say, this time, the clerk will have to deal with it carefully for a few days.
But at this moment, a sixth-rank master came over and frowned and said, "What's the noise?"
After this arrogant member Wailang saw the visitor, he suddenly changed his flattering expression and said with a smile: "It turns out that it is Brother Yang. It's not that the tubao from outside doesn't understand the rules. The officer is patiently teaching him. !"
And this person is Yang Shansong. Yang Shansong’s official position is one level lower than this Yuanwailang, but this Yuanwailang is very fond of him. After all, his identity is different. Who doesn’t know that this is the prince of Shangshu of the Ministry of War. What
As for Yang Shansong, he also enjoyed this kind of flattery. Just when he nodded happily, and then casually looked at the person who was being taught, he was suddenly stunned, and then his face began to change from red to blue, but when he waited In the end, he still gritted his teeth secretly, and said very enthusiastically to Yang Shanlu: "Hehe, when did you come, the third brother? And when you came to the Ministry of War, why didn't you say hello to your brother?"
Seeing Yang Shansong's completely different face from just now, his attitude was not only very enthusiastic, but even faintly low-pitched.
Then he looked at the stunned member Wai Lang, and said with some pity: "The soil bun you mentioned is my third brother, that is, the world-famous General Zhen Guo!"
"Ah!" This Yuanwailang was completely dumbfounded. He looked at Yang Shansong, and then at Yang Shanlu with a calm expression. He felt regretful in his heart... Everyone knows that Lord Shang Shu has a very powerful third son, but Who knew it was this one! It's alright now, luck is in sight!
However, this member of the foreign language can climb to this position, he can be regarded as a decisive person, even in the presence of so many people, he is determined to blame himself, and has the courage to do it on his own! He hurriedly said to Yang Shanlu: "Oh, the official has no eyes to know Mount Tai, and he ran into the third son, and ask the third son to forgive him!"
In order to show his sincerity, he even raised his hand directly, that is, he swiped two big ear scrapers for himself. His hands were proficient in accepting bribes, and he swiped the ear scrapers without any ambiguity. This is a crisp call!
And Yang Shanlu didn't dare to laugh when he saw it, but said faintly: "Really, did my debriefing assessment pass?"
"Ah, it's passed!" This member Wailang completed the formalities very quickly. The speed is so fast that there is no such thing as a few days of careful consideration at the beginning.
But even so, Yang Shanlu won't let him go. He just said indifferently: "By the way, I haven't kneeled for you yet!"
This is also the problem that this member of the foreigner picked up just now, saying that Yang Shanlu was domineering, and only saluted when he saw him, and didn't kneel down. Because the civil is noble and the military is cheap, a guerrilla general dare not kneel when he sees him? But now...
This Yuan Wailang has become a bitter melon face, and he even said: "No need! It's just a joke! If you don't believe me, it's like this." Said this Yuan Wailang tried to put on a joke. , Yang Shanlu knelt down with a plop, and then kept kowtow...
Well, after seeing such a scene, everyone around couldn't help laughing secretly. I knew today, so why bother? Only Yang Shansong, although there was a smile on his face, he felt a little bit of sorrow in his heart, and even he felt a little sympathetic to this foreigner...
This member of the Wailang was forced to be helpless and had no choice but to slap himself in the face in public, but why is he not like that? Thinking of his dignified Yang Mansion’s eldest son, who was born as a Jinshi, but was to be overwhelmed by this little mother, and even talked in a low voice, is there any reason for this...
But these Yang Shansong can only think about it in his heart, but on the surface he dared not reveal it at all.
After seeing Yang Shanlu teach this member of the foreign language, he said very affectionately: "Third brother, you are here this time, and Master Shang Shu also happens to be in the Ministry of War. Why don't you take you to see you as your brother."
"It won't work for you." Yang Shanlu doesn't know how to eat his style. After speaking, he has just left.
Seeing Yang Shanlu's indifferent attitude, Yang Shansong's face was twitched, but he looked at the surprised faces of the staff around him, and suddenly he smiled heartily: "My third brother, I still like to joke so much! This reminds me of that year! I thought that when I worked hard to educate him, cherish him, and see that he is talented in military affairs, I persuaded him to abandon his pen and go to the army, but now, I really made a name for it! "
"So that's it—" everyone around suddenly realized, and then there was a flattering voice: "Adults really are brothers and friendships, and they are wise eyes and beads, and they have cultivated a pillar for the country..." Such flattery made Yang Shansong They all feel very enjoyable, but in his heart he is thinking to himself, I don’t know what kind of moths will come out after the little girl meets his father...
