Chapter 212 Summoned overnight (third update)
Zu Dashou naturally knew the seriousness of the matter, and it was impossible to reveal what the emperor said to outsiders. Otherwise, if the civil servants find out, the ones who will lose the most in the end will be the military attachés like him who are in high positions and have nothing to promote.
He stood next to his seat and said to Cao Wenzhao with a smile on his face: "According to His Majesty's instructions, Vice General Cao is summoned to the rear hall for an audience!"
When Cao Wenzhao heard this, he immediately stood up and felt a little excited. It is an honor to be summoned by His Majesty alone! What's more, judging from Zu Dashou's situation, it is probably a good thing.
Therefore, he did not dare to delay. Under the envious eyes of the generals, he straightened his appearance and walked quickly to the back hall.
Zu Dashou watched his back disappear at the door of the palace, then sat back in his seat. He did not look at the other generals, but looked down at the table in front of him, and began to think about the news he had just heard.
Outside the capital city, when the low-level officers outside Tiananmen lined up to return, the soldiers from the Beijing Camp and the Yuma Supervisor had already withdrawn from the camps of the King Qin's troops. Of course, except for the Ma Shilong camp.
So, to these junior officers, it felt like nothing was happening at all here in the camp. After entering the camp, they dispersed and realized something had happened.
However, what happened at Ma Shilong's military camp has nothing to do with them! They had a lot of things to say in their hearts, and even reached the point where they were conveying messages to their subordinates while eating.
After hearing about the Ming Dynasty Zhonglie Hall, those soldiers immediately forgot about what happened at Ma Shilong's barracks because of their own interests, and they were all immersed in the gossip about the Ming Dynasty Zhonglie Hall.
And Ma Shilong's servants like Xu Wenbo immediately realized something was wrong after entering the camp. Before they had time to feel what was wrong, they were urged by the Jin Yiwei captain behind them and came to the school grounds along the passage separated by the soldiers of the Beijing camp.
When they got here, they discovered that there was a senior general sitting on the general platform. Xu Wenbo happened to recognize him and was very surprised. Why was Marshal Man in the camp?
Naturally, he didn't know that Man Gui was no longer the commander-in-chief of Datong, but was knighted and officially became the admiral of the Beijing camp. He was puzzled and could only stand still and follow the order.
Man Gui also liked these low-level officers very much. He immediately repeated what he had said before and wanted to integrate these low-level officers into the Beijing camp.
Xu Wenbo listened silently. He found that his army was annexed, but he didn't feel any disgust at all. If you think about it carefully, you will understand the reason.
If it had been before yesterday, even if they entered the Beijing camp from the border army, there would not actually be much improvement in salary for people like them.
At least one thing they knew was that there had been no fighting in the Beijing camp all year round, and there was basically no difference between servants and ordinary soldiers in Ma Shilong's army. Some were treated differently depending on the distance between them and the generals, and then they had to work hard for those generals. Become a horse.
In this case, they might resist if the current situation arises. This is exactly what Ma Shilong relied on when he said what he said in Huangji Palace.
However, at this time, Xu Wenbo and the others had changed their minds since they learned about the Ming Zhongmartyang Hall in Tiananmen Square. Originally, they were worried about their status as domestic slaves, but now that they have the opportunity, they are naturally excited.
Another point is that they feel that the emperor is far better than they imagined, and Jingying will definitely be different from before. They hope to see how far their future can go in Jingying.
Man Gui did not expect that the recruitment of these low-level officers from Ma Shilong's servants would be so smooth! If you think about it carefully, you will understand what factors are at play.
Wanting to understand this, he couldn't help but turn his head and look in the direction of the Forbidden City. He once again admired the emperor for being able to deal with a commander-in-chief with a heavy army without any accidents. It was really amazing!
He looked up and saw that it was already getting late, so he went to meet Gao Shiyue, the eunuch of the Royal Horse Supervisor at the top of the Desheng Gate of the capital. The two of them ordered the withdrawal of troops, and they completed today's mission without any danger.
In Wuying Hall, Cao Wenzhao waited until dark before being returned to the front hall. At this time, the city gate was closed, and the emperor ordered them to rest in the city for one night and then leave the city with the emperor early tomorrow morning.
Hu Guang was really tired today. When he returned to the harem, he almost didn't want to talk. But tomorrow is New Year's Eve, another important day, and it is destined to be a busy day for him.
However, he didn't care about any of this. What he cares about is that there are nearly 100,000 King Qin troops outside the city, but he can't afford much supplies to reward them on New Year's Eve. The only thing that can be done is to reward me with pitiful supplies and a bowl of chicken soup for the soul. The quality of this bowl of chicken soup for the soul depends on Hu Guang's own ability, and the effect may be completely different.
In addition to these, I also prepared something else. Whether this thing can be successfully implemented is really very important.
Thinking of this, Hu Guang had to arrange the study room again. Sure enough, a box with a small lock was placed on the imperial desk.
He took out a key from his body, opened the lock and took out the contents. The top one was a memorial. He ignored it and put it aside first, and then looked at the rest carefully.
After looking over and over again, Hu Guang couldn't help but nod. Hu Zhengyan's craftsmanship is really not just for boasting. Who can imitate something of this level? After he felt confident, he picked up the memorial and read it.
After a while, after reading it, he frowned and thought for a while, and immediately issued an order: "Wen Tiren, the first assistant, Bi Ziyan, the minister of the Ministry of Hubu, and Xu Guangqi, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, have an audience!"
The eunuch serving beside him, Fang Zhenghua, was surprised when he heard this, and quickly reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the palace door has been locked!"
After hearing this, Hu Guang couldn't help but show a wry smile, nodded and said: "I know, but I don't have time to wait for tomorrow! A hundred thousand troops outside the city means a hundred thousand mouths. Once the army's food is used up, the capital will not have much leftover food supply. They consume!”
Upon hearing this, Fang Zhenghua felt helpless. The Ming Dynasty was so poor! He did not dare to delay any longer and immediately sent someone to deliver the order.
Wen Tiren, Bi Ziyan and Xu Guangqi saw that it was already dark, the palace door was locked, and the emperor sent someone to summon them, so they did not dare to neglect and hurried to the palace with the angel. At the same time, I was wondering why the emperor was so anxious!
Among them, Wen Tiren knew more and even thought more about it. He was afraid that something would happen to Ma Shilong's servants!
But when he saw the emperor and saw the emperor's calm face, he knew that he had thought wrong. So, he waited patiently for the emperor to speak.
