The Red Mansions

Chapter 762 Jia Heng: But, his Emperor Sword is not a decoration!
Jinling, Zhen's Manor

When Jia Heng and Chen Xiao came to the gate of Zhen's house, white filial cloths had already been hung on the porch in front of the gate and in the courtyard, and a series of spirit banners were set up, and the sound of wailing from inside and outside came from the courtyard, and At some point in time, another drizzle fell from the cloudy sky.

On both sides of a wide street along the Zhen family's mansion, road sacrifice sheds have been set up, and officials and celebrities who are familiar with the Zhen family in Jinling City come to hang sacrifices.

The Jia family also set up a sacrificial shed on the street, and people from Ningrong and Rongfu's literary generations came to hang offerings.

The carriages of dozens of guards of the Jinyi Mansion stopped, Jia Heng dressed in a python suit, and under the umbrella of the guards of the Jinyi Mansion, he and Chen Xiao came to the door of the Zhen family's mansion and stood there for a while.

At this moment, the middle door was wide open, and Zhen Jue, the son of Zhen Shao of the Zhen family, dressed in hemp and mourning, stood in front of the door to welcome the guests. When he saw Jia Heng, he rushed to welcome him.

"Uncle Yongning."

Jia Heng nodded, said his condolences, and asked, "Where's your father?"

Previously, Jiangnan Daying had met Zhen Shao once, but seeing her again today was already a funeral for the old lady of the Zhen family.

Zhen Jue said softly, "Father is still in the mourning hall."

In fact, it is a joy and mourning for Mrs. Zhen to go west with a crane in her eighties, but the grief of the Zhen family at this moment is more like worry about the future of the Zhen family.

Jia Heng looked solemn and didn't say much. He followed a servant into the room, and the guard in Jinyi Mansion behind him presented elegiac couplets and wreaths.

At this moment, the gatekeeper kept reporting the names of officials in Nanjing who came to pay respects and offer condolences behind him.

Jia Heng also entered the mourning hall under the guidance of Zhen Jue. At this moment, the mourning hall was hung with white cloth, and the members of the Zhen family in sackcloth and filial piety were already crying, while the men, women and children of the Zhen family knelt on the ground with mournful expressions and wept away their tears.

Along with Yibin from the mourning hall, Jia Heng's name came to express condolences. Zhen Yingjia, who was kneeling in front of the mourning hall holding a spirit tablet, raised her sad face and looked at the boy.

As for the little girl Zhen Xi who was standing behind Madam Zhen Zhu, her delicate body trembled slightly, and she pursed her lips with tears streaming down her cheeks because of the old matriarch's passing.

Apparently it was Tuogu who wrote the suicide note, which made the little girl realize that she would be entangled with the fate of that young man named Jia Heng in the future.

Jia Heng approached and burned a stick of incense towards the mourning hall, lowered his body and burned some paper in the brazier, with a silent expression on his face.

After finishing all this, Zhen Xuan went up to greet him, and invited Jia Heng to the tea room.

In the tea room, Jia Heng looked up at Zhen Xuan, and said in a low voice, "Uncle Zhen Shi, please mourn."

Zhen Xuan didn't see the unrestrained and unrestrained style in the past, with tears in his eyes and a sad face, he said softly: "Zi Yu, when the old lady left, she left you a letter, now in the hands of the princess, I will show it to you later."

Hearing this, Jia Heng sighed lightly and said, "What's the matter with the old lady?"

And while the two were talking, they only heard Mammy's voice from outside: "The princess is here."

Jia Heng followed the sound, only to see Princess Zhen Qing of Chu, who used to be as charming as spring flowers and autumn moons, now she changed into a beautiful and gorgeous vermilion dress, and put on a snow-white filial dress, with her hair tied like a cloud. A white beaded flower hairpin, there is no trace of makeup on her coquettish face, and her plain face is also stained with tears, her eyebrows and eyes are lingering with a sorrowful aura.

Well, this was the first time Jia Heng saw Zhen Qing's bare face, and she was a little dazed for a while.

Without him, the coquettishness has faded by five points, and it has become five points pure...

"Brother Heng, here we come." Zhen Qing looked at the young man with clear eyebrows and clear demeanor.

Because of Princess Chu Zhen Qing's high status, although she guarded the spirit of Old Madam Zhen, she did not stay in the mourning hall all the time.

Jia Heng suppressed a strange ripple in his heart, nodded, raised his eyes to look at Zhen Qing, and when his eyes met, he called softly: "Princess."

Zhen Qing looked at the young man with reddish eye circles, she took out a letter from her sleeve, and said in a charming voice with a little hoarseness, "Brother Heng, the old lady left you a letter last night. .”

Jia Heng nodded, took the letter, read it carefully, and his calm face, like the abyss of the ancient well, moved slightly.

The main point of the letter was to ask him to take good care of Zhen Xi, but nothing else was mentioned, and it didn't mention taking care of Zhen's family.

This Mrs. Zhen obviously knew about it, and it would be better not to say something.

Zhen Qing looked at the thoughtful young man opposite, and said softly: "Brother Heng, Sister Xi'er is still young, when she arrives in the capital, she will stay at my residence for a few days before sending her to your residence."

Jia Heng nodded and said: "The old matriarch has been worried about her children and grandchildren all her life."

Zhen Qing sighed and said, "Life is not easy for an old lady."

Jia Heng pondered for a moment, then looked at Zhen Qing and asked, "How did the old matriarch's funeral be arranged?"

"Pause for seven days, and accept sacrifices from relatives and friends. In addition, Master Zhiyun from Jiming Temple was invited to do water and land rituals. Mr. Feng Shui also picked an auspicious place." Zhen Qing explained.

The Zhen family is a well-known family in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is needless to say that the old lady Zhen was buried in a grand funeral.

Jia Heng was silent for a while, and didn't know what to say. At this time, there were too many people in Zhen's family, and she couldn't hug Zhen Qing to comfort her.

While talking, Zhen Yingjia also came from the mourning hall, stared at the young man opposite, and called, "Zi Yu."

Jia Heng looked up, seeing the closeness on Zhen Yingjia's face, and felt a little strange in his heart.

It can be said that after Mrs. Zhen's back and forth operations, the Zhen family almost regarded him as Zhen Xi's future husband-in-law.

He guessed...after ransacking the house, he not only transferred the belongings to the Jia family to hide, but also let the female family members take care of him.

Jia Heng and Zhen Yingjia expressed their condolences, and said: "Just now I heard something about the situation from the princess. The old lady is old and virtuous, and her life is a legend. It really makes me wait for the younger generation to look up at the mountain."

Although Mrs. Zhen is happy and mourning, it is not good to be in front of this person, saying that she is dying, and her destiny is countless.

Zhen Yingjia's eyes were slightly red, and she said softly: "Mother, she entered the palace to serve the nobles in the early years, and later raised our brothers, and she didn't enjoy a few days of blessings. When she was dying, the fourth brother had something like that again. I left with regret."

Jia Heng was silent for a moment, and comforted him: "Uncle Shi, don't be too sad. The old lady is open-minded. Although she misses her children and grandchildren, she also knows that children and grandchildren have their own blessings."

Zhen Yingjia: "..."

Children and grandchildren have their own blessings?
Zhen Yingjia settled down and asked, "Mother's last wish was to worry about that child Xi'er, don't you know Ziyu?"

At this time, Zhen Qing hurriedly said softly: "Father, Brother Heng has just accepted, Xi'er will return to Beijing with me when the time comes."

Jia Heng met Zhen Yingjia's gaze and nodded.

Zhen Yingjia looked closer and closer, and said, "Zi Yu, that kid Xi'er will trouble you from now on."

It's pitiful to say that, from beginning to end, Zhen Zhu didn't care about his own daughter at all. In other words, after the death of Mrs. Zhen, Zhen Zhu has become a sinner of the Zhen family.

Jia Heng and Zhen Yingjia were talking, and Zhen Qing was sitting beside her, watching the two talking, her eyes a little absent-minded.

After Xi'er passed by, if she wanted to see this bastard in Beijing, it would be all right. Presumably, the prince would also be happy to see her and this bastard... Well, she was thinking about something.

……

……

Jia Heng finished paying homage to Zhen's house, and left Zhen's house with a silent expression. Hundreds of households in brocade clothes hurriedly stepped forward to look back at Zhen's house, only to feel that the sky over Zhen's manor was covered with clouds, as if there was a thunderbolt hanging over it.

He got into the carriage with Chen Xiao, and drove away from Zhen's house with the carriage.

Chen Xiao said softly: "Just now Liu Jixian was looking for you, and said that Wang Shouqi from Yangzhou sent someone to pass a greeting card yesterday, and wanted to ask to see you. I'm not sure when you will be free."

"Let someone tell him that he's free these few days." Jia Heng said.

Chen Xiao nodded and replied softly.

Apparently, the girl had become Jia Heng's confidential secretary without knowing when.

Jia Heng pondered and said: "The Yan family will hold a funeral these few days, and the Yangzhou salt merchants will come to pay their respects. We will meet once at that time. If things go well, I will find Tan Jie, the minister of the household department in Nanjing, and several ministers from Yangzhou, to hold a meeting First, let the Yangzhou Salt Transportation Department make up for the shortfall, and use it as the army's salary."

When the old lady of the Zhen family passed away, not only the Yangzhou Salt Chamber of Commerce came to pay her respects, but Lin Ruhai and Qi Kun also came to Jinling.

Yangzhou Salt Affairs has been delayed for so long, and it is time to enter the topic of salt law reform.

Chen Xiao nodded and said, "Then don't we have to reorganize the army?"

Jia Heng looked at the young girl with a beautiful face, and said softly: "The whole army is a delicate matter. It will take at least a month to see the weather for the first time. After dinner, let's go to the Ministry of War first."

Judging from the military status of the soldiers and the distribution of salaries checked yesterday, Jiang Sucheng, the left servant of the Ministry of War, and Meng Guangyuan, the right servant of the Ministry of War, have made a lot of money over the years.

It's just that Marquis Annan is an old man, so he deliberately didn't mention the matter of the Ministry of War yesterday, because he clearly wanted to see him fight with civil servants.

Chen Xiao said in a low voice: "The Jiangnan camp has been corrupted for years, not only fattening up the generals, but also a lot of these civil servants who are greedy for ink."

Jia Heng said: "I am ready to impeach the two men again to the imperial court. In the afternoon, I will organize the army in the name of investigating the amount of military equipment, mules, horses and other military supplies that the second division of the arsenal sent to the Jiangnan camp. If there is a discrepancy between the two, it is necessary to impeach the two when they were acting as ministers, and there was chaos."

Rectifying the Jiangnan camp, adjusting the personnel of the generals and schools in the battalion, and taking the opportunity to recover the money of corrupt ink is only the first step of rectification. , training boats, water, land, soldiers and horses is the third step.

Before that, the account of the two ministers of the Nanjing Military Department also needs to be settled.

He had previously impeached the two men, but Jingli hadn't sent back the news, because Zhen Zhu's defeat had a lot to do with the two ministers of the Ministry of War. deal with so many people.

The eyes under Chen Xiaoxiu's eyebrows flickered, and he reminded: "These two ministers of the military department have been officials in the south of the Yangtze River for many years, and they have many students in the same year. No defense."

Make some troubles, and then let the officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the official censors, and the official officials in Nanjing transfer to Beijing, put pressure on Emperor Chongping, and even use the wealth of Jiangnan as a threat to make Emperor Chongping and Jia Heng make concessions.

"That's why I had to convince Marquis Annan first yesterday. Marquis Annan helped to appease some generals. There are still some who don't know the current affairs, so we just suppress them." Jia Heng said in a low voice with gloomy eyes.

No matter how well planned in advance, the entire army cannot be smooth sailing, and many people whose interests have been damaged will definitely try to make a big news in an attempt to make him die.

However, his Emperor Sword is not a decoration!

Chen Xiao thought for a while, worry appeared in his eyes, and he reminded: "Yangzhou salt merchants, Governor of Liangjiang, Jiangnan Daying, Ministry of War, will these parties be entangled?"

Jia Heng was silent for a moment, and said: "I thought about it before, but the forces of the several parties are now in a state of disunity and lack the foundation for cooperation. It might have been true to unite before, but it's too late now."

If several parties worked together to push him back from Jiangnan before he won the great victory in Haimen, he might have returned without success, but now the possibility of cooperation has been lost.

Shen Fang was dismissed and retained this time, and he was beaten severely. If he dared to play tricks, he would be seeking his own death.

Chen Xiao said softly: "Maybe it would be much better for the detective to keep a close eye on it."

Jia Heng nodded, and said softly: "The conditions discussed with Marquis Annan last night, Marquis Annan will definitely gather with those former generals, and it will definitely not go so smoothly. I think I have done my best, but it is not ruled out that some generals will not know At any rate, doing stupid things, I recently asked the Jinyi Mansion to closely monitor the commanders, commanders and other generals of the Five Guards of the Jiangnan Camp."

"Xiaoxiao's thinking is becoming more and more thoughtful." Jia Heng looked at the girl, gently took Chen Xiao's plain hand, and said in a low voice, "What a good wife."

Chen Xiaoyu was slightly annoyed, she broke away from Jia Heng's hand, and said: "What kind of help, you are talking nonsense."

Jia Heng didn't hold the girl's hand anymore, and said in a low voice: "I asked Liu Jixian to deliver a letter to the Jiangbei camp this morning. The soldiers and horses of the Jiangnan camp should be mobilized in two days after tomorrow. If you want to make a fuss, you can't turn the wind and waves."

But at this moment, he felt that the carriage stopped slightly.

Jia Heng's face paused slightly, he lifted the curtain of the car, and looked into the distance through the misty rain.

I saw a slim girl in a red skirt holding an umbrella on the side of the road, looking up, under the oil-paper umbrella was a pretty ruddy face, with joy in her eyes, she was quite independent, and the swifts were flying together artistic conception.

When Nan Ling saw Jia Heng's convoy, his eyes lit up, and he ran over quickly, not afraid of the guards of the Jinyi Mansion, he stretched out his hand and said, "Uncle Yongning."

However, he was blocked by Jinyi Mansion Guards.

Jia Heng lifted the curtain of the car, stared at the girl, and said to Li Shu who was riding a horse outside: "Let her come over and see what's going on."

After a while, Nan Ling was led to come forward, took an invitation card in his hand, and said softly: "Uncle Yongning, Madam would like to invite you to lunch, this is the invitation card."

Jia Heng's expression was slightly startled, and he reached out to take the invitation card. Under Nan Ling's loving gaze, he lowered his eyes to the invitation card in his hand, and read the text intently.

Jia Heng was silent for a while, looked at Chen Xiao who was at the side, and said in a clear voice: "Ye Nuan said that there is an important matter in Jiangnan Daying, and he held a banquet at Lijing Restaurant, and invited me over."

When he was in Yangzhou, Ye Nuan invited Jia Heng to a banquet, but Jia Heng declined, and now he invites him again in Jinling.

Jia Heng pondered for a moment, then instructed Li Shu who was the guard, "Go to Lijing Restaurant."

After thinking about it, he looked at Nan Ling who was walking on the slippery bluestone road, and said, "Let her get in the car and sit."

Hearing this, Nan Ling got into the carriage and looked at the young boy in the python suit sitting in the carriage, feeling like a deer, his cheeks flushed.

Jia Heng looked at the girl calmly, and asked, "How does your wife know that I'm in Zhen's house?"

"I guessed it." Nan Ling said softly, suddenly realized something, and quickly said: "The whole Jinling City knows about the old lady of the Zhen family."

In fact, she first went to Ningguo Mansion to inquire about the situation, and then came here again.

Jia Heng glanced at the girl's wet embroidered shoes, her face was pale, and she didn't say anything else.

Chen Ling looked at the young Nan Ling with bright eyebrows, and sighed softly in his heart.

As the wheels twitched, the carriage pushed through the hazy rain and fog, and drove towards Lijing Restaurant.

In the private room of Lijing Restaurant, Ye Nuan, the daughter of Marquis Annan, was wearing a red dress and was sitting by the window. Under her curled-up cloud bun, she looked out at the row upon row of buildings with her peach-like jade face. The bluestone road on the street is slippery and muddy, and there are few pedestrians.

Not far away was sitting a young woman wearing an indigo blue dress with a quiet demeanor, it was Gu Ruoqing.

Ye Nuan said with emotion in a soft voice: "The old lady of the Zhen family is gone, and the Zhen family is in turmoil."

Previously, the Zhen family relied entirely on their friendship with the Tian family. Once Mrs. Zhen left, people with a discerning eye could see that they would be liquidated by the palace.

Gu Ruoqing said in a low voice: "The Zhen family and the Tian family have a very close friendship, and they have enjoyed a lot of wealth and honor these years, so it's worth it."

Ye Nuan nodded, and said, "A gentleman's fortune will be cut in the fifth generation. The descendants of the Zhen family have no great achievements in the country. They should be content with enjoying the wealth for so long."

Compared with a family of martial arts like her Ye family, it is easier for the Zhen family to get rich. When the palace takes back the holy family, it will return to its original shape in an instant.

Gu Ruoqing said softly: "Even if the wealth does not exist, there are two concubines to take care of you, there is still a day of comeback, and besides... the Jia family."

At the end, his eyes flashed.

Ye Nuan lightly pursed her pink lips, and said with a gloomy gaze, "The Jia family is indeed thriving now. No one knows how far that Uncle Yongning will go until he is defeated."

It is not surprising that my father increased his bets on the Jia family, unless Yongning Bo suffered a big defeat, but then the Ye family in Jinling would not be involved.

While the two were discussing, a servant girl entered the box and said, "Ma'am, Uncle Yongning is here."

Ye Nuan said: "Ruoqing, follow me to meet you."

Gu Ruoqing nodded and stood up to greet her.

While talking, Jia Heng and Chen Xiao went up to the second floor.

Ye Nuan looked at the young man, with a sweet smile on his beautiful face, and said, "Uncle Yongning, you are here."

Jia Heng nodded and said, "Madam Ye has been waiting for a long time."

In addition to the invitation to have dinner at the Lijing Restaurant, the invitation also mentioned some changes of the generals of the Jiangnan Daying Army, otherwise, he really didn't have much interest in having too much contact with the widow of the Ye family.

Ye Nuan stretched out his hand to invite, and said, "Say it from Lixiang."

Jia Heng nodded, glanced at Gu Ruoqing, entered the box, and the two parties were divided into guests and hosts.

Ye Nuanyan was full of smiles on her beautiful face, her voice was round and smooth, and she said softly: "Uncle Yongning had a meal with father yesterday, I heard that we had a good conversation?"

"Ye Hou is a hero of the age and a pillar of the country. He is also quite distressed by the slack in military equipment and loose military discipline in the Jiangnan camp in recent years. However, due to his affection, he has many scruples in his actions, which is understandable." Jia Heng Picking up the teacup, he took a sip and said.

Ye Nuan sighed softly, and said: "It's rare that Uncle Yongning is so considerate of father. Father is getting older, and his heart has softened a lot. I went back to tell those old subordinates last night. I don't want many people to be furious. , thinking that Yongning Bo is too aggressive."

Last night, after Marquis Annan returned to the mansion, he talked with Zhao Jian, the commander of the Baotao Guard who had been waiting for a long time, and the others, and the veterans were very angry.

Jia Heng put down the teacup, glanced at Gu Ruoqing, and asked, "Wait a minute, Mrs. Ye, Miss Gu..."

Gu Ruoqing: "..."

She's in the way here, isn't she?

Ye Nuan couldn't help laughing, as if a hundred flowers were in full bloom, and said with a smile: "If Qing is not an outsider, she will not reveal the secret."

Jia Heng looked at Gu Ruoqing and said in a low voice, "Since Mrs. Ye said so, then it is."

Ye Nuan said: "A few people don't quite agree, saying that they have spent their whole lives in life for the court, and now they are swept away from the barracks, which is really chilling."

Jia Heng laughed lightly, but did not speak.

Ye Nuan's heart trembled, and when he looked at the young man with extremely young appearance, he felt a surge of fear in his heart.

This is the Minister of Military Aircraft?Don't be angry.

Jia Heng was silent for a moment, looked at Ye Nuan aggressively, and asked: "Mrs. Ye, who are these people, can you write down their names."

Ye Nuan paused for a moment when he heard the words, and said with a self-conscious smile, "Uncle Yongning, I can't say that, they are all uncles, I hope Uncle Yongning can forgive me."

Jia Heng nodded and said, "It's understandable."

Annan Hou Yezhen asked Ye Nuan to come over to report the news. Is this to use his hand to suppress the old department, or is there another intention?

And just as Jia Heng was thinking, Gu Ruoqing cast a pair of clear eyes on the young man, the cold eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about something.

Ye Nuan smiled, and said softly: "Okay, let's not talk about it, Uncle Yongning, let's have lunch first."

Jia Heng nodded and said nothing else.

……

……

Just when Jia Heng was going to Ye Nuan's banquet, in the back hall of the Ministry of War in Nanjing, in a spacious and elegantly furnished study room, Jiang Sucheng, the left servant of the Ministry of War, was sitting on the grand master's chair beside the small table, frowning , with a dignified look on his face.

On the side, Meng Guangyuan, the right servant of the Ministry of War, also had a sad look on his face.

On the pear wood chairs on both sides of the lower head, sit the four divisions of the Ministry of War, driving the Qingli Division, the Langzhong, Yuanwailang, the chief officer and other officials of the Ministry of War.

All the officials of the Ministry of War gathered in the back hall to discuss the impact on the Ministry of War after Yongning Bo took over the Jiangnan Camp.

The whole army of the Jiangnan camp involves all aspects, from military elections, vehicles to the arsenal, which are inextricably linked with the movements of the Jiangnan camp. In the past, everything related to battalion affairs was uploaded and distributed by the Ministry of War. A rich position, but now the person who oversees the army is Yongning Bo who holds the sword of the emperor.

There are many things that cannot be done without talking, and there is also the worry of being liquidated.

Meng Guangyuan said: "Old Jiang, Master Shen is now dismissed and retained. The one who led Zhenhai to win the battle, will the imperial court pursue the previous matter of Zhenhai's reorganization?"

Jiang Sucheng said softly: "You are worrying too much. The matter of suppressing the navy was all decided by Shen Jiefu alone. It has nothing to do with you and me. The Holy Majesty only decreed to punish Liangjiang Governor's Mansion earlier, which is in line with this! You and I have made no mistakes. Let Uncle Yongning catch him, even if he wants to slander, he will find no evidence."

Meng Guangyuan pondered and said: "The one who took over the Jiangnan camp, I heard that he planned to move the Jiangbei one over, check the vacancies, weed out the old and the weak, that's okay, if you want to check the military supplies and supplies over the years... you really need to be serious , it’s not a joke.”

There are 6 soldiers and horses in the Jiangnan camp, and the number of soldiers is occupied by generals, but the annual supply and replacement of military supplies and ordnance are all supplied and sold according to the amount of [-] people. fanny pack.

For example, ordnance, vehicles, banners, golden drums, etc. were all prepared by the Nanjing Ministry of War, and even the emptiness of the Jiangnan camp was blocked by the Ministry of War in advance, so that it turned a blind eye to the chaos of the Jiangnan camp.

Not to mention, the generals will be promoted and fill vacancies, and they will even send money to the masters of the Ministry of War to clear their joints.

Zhou Qing, the official secretary of the arsenal, furrowed his brows and said worriedly: "Master Meng's words are true, how can some old accounts be turned around randomly, and there are so many involved up and down."

Jiang Sucheng said: "Will that Yongning Bo turn over these old accounts?"

"It's hard to say." Meng Guangyuan shook his head, and said in a low voice: "Last time, we and Mr. Shen joined forces to give him a soft nail. Maybe this time he took the opportunity to explode."

Jiang Sucheng's expression darkened upon hearing this.

At this time, a middle-aged member whose face was seven to eight points similar to that of Jiang Sucheng said, "Brother, this Uncle Yongning doesn't see someone rubbing sand in his eyes. Last time in Huai'an Mansion, people from Ningguo Mansion resold some grain." , was whipped by him himself, and he is so cruel to his own family, so is there any need to say it to others?"

The man was Jiang Tingyu, the younger brother of Jiang Sucheng, who came to the Ministry of War to undertake an ordnance comprador for the Jiangnan Camp. Jia Heng suffered a disadvantage there.

When Jiang Sucheng heard the words, fear welled up in his heart, and he murmured: "Probably not, that Uncle Yongning may not be able to investigate, we don't want to scare ourselves."

A stern look flashed in Meng Guangyuan's eyes, and he said: "In my opinion, this Yongningbo is going to weed out the old generals in the Jiangnan camp. These people will definitely not sit still. Once there is trouble, there may be a turning point."

Jiang Sucheng's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and then he frowned again and said: "If this is the case, it's really not good to chase after him. The key is to look at Marquis Annan. If Marquis Annan helps to appease, nothing can be done, but According to the little official, Second Young Master Ye of Annan Hou's family took a boat to Weigang, Tongzhou early this morning to take up his post in the navy."

Hearing this, Meng Guangyuan's expression changed slightly, and he said in surprise, "Is this a discussion with that Yongning Bo?"

The two ministers of the Ministry of War were not fools, and they vaguely guessed that the Jia and Ye families had probably reached an agreement on the general direction of the army.

Jiang Sucheng said: "Marquis Annan doesn't want to confront Uncle Yongning, but the generals below have different ideas."

As the Minister of the Ministry of War, Jiang Sucheng has a good relationship with some generals of the Marquis of Annan, and has received some rumors.

Meng Guangyuan said: "If this is the case, can you..."

Jiang Sucheng waved his hand, interrupted Meng Guangyuan's words, and said: "There are some things that you just think about in your heart, be careful not to speak out."

If the generals mutiny and make trouble, the army will naturally fail, and the boy can only return home without a feather.
