The happy life of a prodigal

But... No matter how I lie down, I don't feel comfortable in this tent.

This feeling is indescribable. In a word, it is still the same word - comfortable.

Fang Xiu lay down, and before he felt comfortable for a while, he heard a voice from outside the tent: "Lieutenant Liang Hu, please see General Fang!"

Liang Hu can be said to be the only school lieutenant that Fang Xiu is familiar with in this Yulin Guard.

Back then when I first came to Habayashi, he was the one who received me, and this tent... was also led by him.

Other than that, he, like himself, is a newcomer to this Habayashi guard.

The difference is that he is a pro-army Captain Habayashiwei who has made military achievements in the frontier and killed countless enemies.

And myself... because of reviewing the first name.

Chapter 76 Important things

In front of outsiders, one still needs to retain some image.

Fang Xiu got up in a hurry, sat on the chair, and then said: "Come in."

As soon as the words fell, a burly man with a scar on his face walked in.

After saluting, he said, "General Fang, I have something important to report to you in my humble position. I don't know if it's convenient for you, General?"

Although they only got along for half a month, Fang Xiu knew this Colonel Liang very well.

Fighting on the border for many years, this person has always been simple, disdainful of intrigue, let alone flattery, no matter what he does, he is extremely efficient and rarely talks nonsense.

It can be seen that the important matter in his mouth is definitely not easy to handle.

Although she thought so in her heart, she didn't show any expression on her face, she just said lightly: "Say."

Liang Hu raised his eyes, looked at Fang Xiu, and said: "The humble officer inspected the armory yesterday, and found that... the swords in the armory are not the same as those in the book."

Fang Xiu was slightly taken aback.

Hugh Mu yesterday, he was not the one who stayed on duty, why did he go to inspect the armory?

As if he knew what Fang Xiu was thinking, Liang Hu explained: "When I led the soldiers to practice, I felt that the weapons used in the drill were different from those used when I went to battle on the frontier, and they were much lighter.

So I made my own claim, found the record booklet, took a rest yesterday, dressed up as an ordinary soldier, sneaked into the armory, and checked it out. Sure enough, I found something strange...

However, the humble post did violate military discipline and was willing to suffer any punishment! "

The weapons in the pro-army arsenal are much lighter than the weapons used to kill the enemy in the frontier?

Fang Xiu was startled again, and then he immediately realized that a turbulent wave was set off in his heart.

The pro-army is the last barrier in front of the Great Chu Emperor. If there is a problem with the pro-army, let alone the arsenal in the far southwest and northwest borders.

This matter is more than important!

Fang Xiu's eyes were as deep as water, looked at Liang Hu, and said: "The matter of punishment will be discussed later, the general only asks you now, can you confirm the matter just now?"

With no expression on his face, Liang Hu clasped his hands and said, "Xiaozhi is willing to use his head as a guarantee!"

Fang Xiu fell into deep thought when he heard this.

Liang Hu stood upright in the tent, but also didn't say a word.

After a long time, Fang Xiu raised his eyes, looked at Liang Hu, and asked, "Is there any evidence?"

Liang Hu immediately said: "There is no need for evidence, as long as the general sends someone to the military equipment storehouse, and checks it according to the booklet."

Fang Xiu thought for a while, then asked again: "Have you told anyone else about this matter?"

Liang Hu said: "No."

Although he is a rough man who only knows how to go to battle to kill the enemy, he is also rough and fine.

There are many reasons, needless to say, also understand.

The Armament Library is under the control of Habayashi Guard, if something goes wrong, the people in Habayashi Guard will definitely be involved.

And Fang Xiu went to this Habayashi Guard together with him, and he only stayed in the camp all day long, and did not do anything else, so he definitely would not collude with the others.

If there is only one person who can be trusted in this Habayashi guard, that is this Zuo Zhonglang general—General Fang Xiufang!

Hearing what Liang Hu said, Fang Xiu fell silent again, and after a long time, he said: "This general knows about this matter, you can go down."

Liang Hu took a deep look at him, and cupped his hands: "Resign from the humble job!"

After he left, Fang Xiu lay back on the blanket again, but he could no longer comfortably close his eyes and meditate like before.

It's really that what Liang Hu said...is too important.

If he turned a blind eye, his conscience would be troubled.

After all, Chu State is now facing foreign enemies.

In the northern border, there are tribes of grasslands staring at each other, and in the northwest, there are alien races ready to move.

Even in the territory of Chu State, the chieftains in the southwest are not at all restless.

Military preparation... is the most important thing in a country. If there is a problem with military preparation, no matter how brave the soldiers of Chu State are, no matter how brave they are, they will only be "death" when they go to the battlefield.

It is no exaggeration to say...a defeat!

After tossing and turning for a long time, Fang Xiu still couldn't keep this matter in his heart, got up, walked to the desk, and took out a blank letterhead.

Grind and retouch the pen by yourself, sit at the desk, and think quietly.

............

After a long time, an anonymous letter without a signature was passed on to the eunuch Liu Cheng, the eunuch in charge of the supervisor of ceremonies, through the little eunuch Zhang Sheng.

Liu Cheng looked at the letter paper with the four words An Guo Zhi Ce written on it, his eyes were deep, and he didn't know what to write.

Zhang Sheng knelt down on the ground, trembling, not daring to make a sound.

After half a stick of incense passed, Liu Cheng raised his eyes, looked at Zhang Sheng who was still kneeling on the ground, and asked, "Where did you get this letter?"

Zhang Sheng said in a trembling voice: "Servant, servant doesn't know..."

When Liu Cheng heard this, he just kept silent and stared at him with cold eyes.

Finally, Zhang Sheng couldn't bear the pressure, he kowtowed his head heavily, and said in a trembling voice: "Your servant, I really don't know, my servant woke up yesterday and found that there was such a letter beside the bed. Besides, There is also a letter to the servant girl, which says...

It said, let the slave give this letter to the godfather, and let the godfather pass it on to His Majesty, if the slave does not do so, then kill the slave, there is no way for the slave..."

As he spoke, the tears couldn't stop falling.

Liu Cheng didn't take it seriously, he just waved his hand and said coldly, "Get lost!"

A soft word 'roll' fell on Zhang Sheng's ears like the sound of nature.

He kowtowed continuously until his head was bleeding, before he dared to turn around and crawl away.

Eunuchs, especially small eunuchs who have no power and authority and are not surrounded by big figures, have the least status and dignity in the palace.

Let’s say Zhang Sheng, since he was sent to the palace by his family when he was a child, he has been walking on eggshells all day long, and he has to be careful and serve him all the time.

If something goes wrong, it's inevitable that there will be a series of beatings, and this is just an extravagant hope.

Because in the palace, living is already happiness.

Of the 20 young eunuchs who entered the palace with him, only one survived, relying on this mentality of treading on thin ice in everything.

I thought I could live a good life by doing my own thing peacefully and not provoking others.

Unexpectedly, for no reason, disasters could happen.

Hey......

Climbing out of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, Zhang Sheng raised his head, looked at the bright sunshine, and only felt that his life...was in darkness.

After Zhang Sheng left, Liu Cheng looked at the letterhead in his hand, especially the four words 'The Policy of Safeguarding the Country'.

After hesitating for a long time, I still decided to give the letter... to His Majesty!

As the other pair of eyes and ears of His Majesty, he does not have the power to make decisions.

What can be done is to let His Majesty see more things that are usually invisible, and hear more voices that are usually not heard.

Although the origin of this letter is unknown, it must have been submitted by a high-ranking official.

Moreover, the contents of this letter, regardless of the words "An Guozhizhi", must know...it is definitely an important matter.

otherwise……

Why did the person who wrote the letter take the risk to bypass the court and deliver the letter directly to His Majesty?

Therefore, this letter...must be sent!

Chapter 77 The Chu Emperor Was Wrathful

Hall of Mental Cultivation, Nuan Pavilion.

Looking at the memorial in front of him, Emperor Chu frowned slightly.

This memorial was presented by Habayashi Wei You Zhonglang to Sun Teng, and the content was to impeach Zuo Zhonglang General Fangxiu.

Accusing him of the vegetarian meal in the corpse, he served for half a month, and he just stayed in the camp and slept all day long, and he never even asked about the soldiers' drills.

Generally speaking, this kind of matter cannot be passed on to the Emperor Chu, and the cabinet can make decisions after reading it.

But... Fang Xiu is the head of the review, ordered by His Majesty, and the only son of General Dingyuan An Pingbo.

This matter is not so simple, if His Majesty did not speak, no one can decide.

Looking at the memorial, Emperor Chu couldn't help but sighed.

At that time, Fang Xiu offered a strategy to stabilize the country, and he was extra merciful, and appointed him as Habayashi Guard Zuo Zhonglang.

But afterwards, no matter whether it was among the people or the court, there were quite a few criticisms about this appointment.

That said, that's about it.

Chu Huangquan pretended not to see it, but only hoped that this young man with Wang Zuozhi's talent would surprise him.

Half a month has passed, and there are no surprises, but quite a few shocks.

The imperial doctor he sent was hung up by him and stabbed with silver needles.

Now, another of his deputy is impeaching him.

If you turn a blind eye to it, you will inevitably fall into the mouth, and among the officials, there must be some people who are dissatisfied.

At that time, it may be too late to make amends.

Although he was very optimistic about Fang Xiu, the Emperor of Chu had no choice but to wave his hand, and ordered the waiter beside him to read: "Order someone to go to the Yulin Guard to deliver the decree, and let Zuo Zhonglang general Fang Xiu come to see me."

The attendant immediately bowed and saluted, "Yes, Your Majesty."

With that said, he left the Nuan Pavilion.

After he left, only Emperor Chu was left in the Nuan Pavilion.

Picking up the teacup, he took a sip, his brows were full of exhaustion.

As soon as the memorial was published in the southwest, there was a rebellion by the chieftain, and the local town sent [-] heavy troops to encircle and suppress [-] rebels, but they failed.

Not only did it fail, but more than [-] people were counter-killed, which is really a shame and a shame!

The Lord General pleaded guilty and has been dismissed from his official position, but he still can't explain the anger in his heart.

I think back then, Taizu lived his life as a soldier and horse, and only then did he have this great Chu world.

But now, in just over a hundred years, his descendants and grandchildren, even the small chieftain's rebellion, are unable to quell the rebellion.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help feeling guilty.

I'm really... sorry for my ancestors.

At this time, a figure walked in from the outside, without saying a word, he knelt down on the ground and saluted respectfully.

The movement is natural, as if it has become a habit.

This person is none other than the eunuch in charge of the chief inspector of ceremonies—Liu Cheng.

Liu Cheng lowered his head and said softly, "I have something important to report to Your Majesty."

Emperor Chu raised his eyes, glanced at him, then turned his eyes back to the memorial, and said lightly, "Say."
