[Red Mansion] Let's listen to a general's order

On this side, Ban Zhang picked up the cattail leaf fan, squatted on the ground and patiently controlled the heat regardless of his appearance.

Half a quarter of an hour later, he looked around cautiously, and when he saw no one was around, he poured the medicine from the pot into an empty bowl, then half-kneeled on the ground, and took out a pack of medicine wrapped in yellow paper from his soap boots. powder.

After hesitating for a while, Qian Zhangban gritted his teeth and poured all the medicine powder from the yellow paper into the medicine. It was clean and there was nothing left.

As soon as the white medicinal powder was poured into the jet-black soup, it immediately melted away without leaving any traces.

"Who is sneaking around there!?" A loud shout came from behind.

The head of Qian was terrified and tried to stay calm. Under the cover of his loose sleeves, he put away the yellow paper in his hand.

After he packed everything up and made sure there was nothing missing, Shi Shiran put his hands in his sleeves and stood up.

"Where are the wild dogs barking indiscriminately!" Qian Zhangban was the first to start, and squinted at him with disdain.

The soldier Shichang turned around in the Qian Zhang squad and recognized his identity when he saw his face.

However, he couldn't help becoming angry when he heard that the eunuch dared to insult him in public.

"Bah! So it's Mr. Qian Gong from Dongchang! No wonder I just saw such a sneaky figure from the back, hiding his head and showing his tail, so he doesn't look like a human being!" He deliberately emphasized the word "Gong Gong" and ridiculed Qian Zhangban as an eunuch with a mutilated body and no face to see others. .

Seeing this, the soldiers next to him laughed loudly with the same hatred.

"Good! Good!" Ban Zhang laughed angrily.

"I don't know the name of this elder, Gao? Our family will definitely have a good report in the future!" He said through gritted teeth, if he hadn't got "important things" to do now, he wouldn't waste time on these pawns, he wouldn't Just let things go lightly.

Ban Zhang cast a gloomy look at the soldiers in front of him, remembering their faces firmly.After he freed his hand, he would never stop until these muddy legs ruined the family.

The soldiers who laughed at Squad Qian were also terrified by the poisonous snake's eyes, and some of them began to regret that they had messed with the Squad Leader of Dongchang.

The name of a person, the shadow of a tree.After being "tempted" by thousands of "warriors" who rushed forward one after another, Dongchang successfully established the "notoriety" of revenge.

"Grandpa, I won't change my name if I'm going, and I won't change my surname when I'm sitting. Zhang Chao is under the command of General Shenwu!" Zhang Chao, the leader, was not afraid of getting into trouble, patted his chest, and said in an all-encompassing manner.

"Huh!" It's just that a little senior under the command of a miscellaneous general dares to mock himself! ?

Ban Zhang picked up the medicine, now is not the time to care about these pawns, and it is not too late to deal with them in the future.

"Hey! Stop!" Zhang Chao knew from the vicious snake-like eyes that Qian Zhangban looked at him just now, that he had formed a grudge against the Dongchang eunuch.

He was very annoyed at why he couldn't control his mouth. If it wasn't for his violent temper, he would have been the head of the village long ago!

But since those who shouldn't be offended have also been offended, according to the eunuch's stingy and vengeful character, he probably won't let him off easily, and Zhang Chao doesn't care about offending others even more severely.

Zhang Chao deliberately took a step forward, blocking Qian Zhangban's path with his spear.

"Password - Blood from Yanmen."

Ban Zhang was at a loss for words for a moment, he had just been dispatched from Beijing to the front line to support, he was not used to memorizing the passwords in the army, and he would be accompanied by other small gangs on weekdays, and when the patrolling soldiers saw that he was from Dongchang People (with a white face and no beard, no Adam's apple, you can tell they are servants at a glance), and they seldom come forward to question them.

The habit of passwords in the army changes day by day. Today, Commander Qian was thinking about the "big event" of the marshal's decoction.

Seeing this, Zhang Chao's eyes lit up, and his hand holding the long gun couldn't help but tighten.

The day before yesterday, the patrol team that caught the Dongchang fanzi who failed to match the password was his team, and he even shot and killed the fanzi who resisted arrest.

The other soldiers also remembered that incident and made up their minds.

Zhang Chao and the brothers around him who had been through life and death for several years looked at each other, understanding each other's thoughts.

Even though they have never seen Dongchang's methods with their own eyes, they have always heard a lot of them.Although my elder brothers are soldiers in the army, they live and eat in the camp, and they don't interfere with the Dongchang River, but if they are really hated by Dongchang, I'm afraid that the young and old in my family will suffer.

Forgetting the password in the army is a serious crime, ranging from beating thirty to severe, and beheading for public display. If there is any wrong behavior, the soldiers in charge of patrol have the right to behead first and then act.

What a sensitive person Qian Zhangban is, the moment Zhang Chao and others felt murderous, he had already sensed a bad premonition.

He took a step back quietly, thinking about how to get out.

At this moment, "What are you doing here?" Suddenly, a cold voice sounded from behind Qian Zhangban.

"The villain Qian Lu has met the factory owner." The head of Qian turned around with joy and worry and knelt down.

"I've seen the supervisor!" Zhang Chao and the others naturally recognized Feng Zizhi's appearance. Since Feng Zizhi appeared, they couldn't stab his subordinates to death in front of him, so they had no choice but to salute.

I saw Feng Zizhi wearing a gold-woven boa robe, a jade belt around his waist, and mink fur shoes on his feet. Behind him stood several servants dressed in Dongchang costumes.

He looked down at Qian Zhangban from a height, "Qian Lu, what are you doing in the back camp at this time?"

Qian Lu lowered his head, licked his lips nervously, and replied: "If you go back to the factory, the marshal's medicine has just been decocted, and the little one is about to take it for the marshal."

"Such a trivial matter as decocting medicine and holding medicine, do we need our head of the East Factory to do it himself?" Feng Zizhi said with no expression of joy or anger.

"Small one, the little one just wants to be loyal to the factory owner." Qian Lu said in a flattering way.

Feng Zizhi was noncommittal, turned to Zhang Chao and the others and asked, "What happened to you?"

"If you're going back to the prison army, when you're patrolling in a low-level position, you see this person acting sneaky and sneaky from a distance, so you go up to check. When you ask about the password in the army, this person can't answer, but he thinks he is Dongchang. I want to leave. I won't let it go, so the two sides are in a stalemate." Zhang Chao is not stupid, and most of the things are settled on his own side.

"Master Mingjian! What they said is all false!!" Qian Lu was anxious and shouted without regard to the rules.He has followed Feng Zizhi for many years, and he knows Feng Zizhi's behavior well. If he really believes what those little pawns say, he will punish him severely without mercy.

Feng Zizhi frowned in displeasure, he thought that after the incident the day before yesterday, people from his East Factory would never violate the military regulations again, and would ignore the military passwords.However, this Qian Lu is usually a cautious person, why would he knowingly commit a crime?and……

He glanced at the medicine bowl Qian Lu put on the ground. Wasn't Feng Yuxiang's adopted son doing the decoction and holding the medicine?

Qian Lu noticed that Feng Zizhi was looking at the medicine bowl in front of him. Although his face remained calm, a lot of cold sweat broke out on his forehead because of the ghost in his heart.

"Step, step, step, step."

Seeing the mink fur shoes with light golden texture approaching step by step, and finally stopped in front of him, Qian Lu didn't dare to raise his head again, and leaned down more and more, pressing his forehead to the ground tightly.

Feng Zizhi gently lifted Qian Lu's chin with the tip of his shoe, revealing his pale face.

"Yanmen is bleeding, the next sentence is, loyal to the Lord."

"You must remember the code words of the military aircraft. If you can't remember them, I will engrave them on your chest."

Qian Lu said with trembling lips: "I know, there will be no next time..."

After Feng Zizhi stared at him for a while, he said to Zhang Chao and the others beside him who did not dare to say a word: "You have done a good job. Our family will commend you to the lieutenant general for your dedication." Although he He was very unhappy that Zhang Chao and others caught his subordinates forgetting their passwords every time, but he would not demean himself to argue with Zhang Chao and others.

Zhang Chao and the others were overjoyed, they didn't expect them to lose face to Dongchang again and again, not only did the supervising army not give them small shoes to wear, but instead praised them more, and even spoke well to General He Qi for them!

"Thanks to the supervising army!" After Zhang Chao led his men to thank Feng Zizhi, he cupped his fists and said, "I have a duty to continue patrolling the camp!" Seeing the supervising army lecturing his subordinates, and getting the good words from the supervising army, what? I lost all face.If you don't leave at this time, do you still have to take Qian Lu away for interrogation and military law?Even if Zhang Chao's EQ is low, he will not be so rigid. Just because he has a bad temper and speaks indiscriminately, it doesn't mean he is stupid.

Feng Zizhi was very satisfied with Zhang Chao and others' understanding, nodded and said: "Go!"

After Zhang Chao and others saluted, they hurried away one by one.

Afterwards, looking at their backs, Feng Zizhi asked casually, "Isn't Feng Yuxiang's adopted son in charge of Marshal's decoction?"

Qian Lu's heartbeat slowed down a beat, and he pretended to be calm and said: "...When I passed by here just now, I saw that Xiao Yongzi seemed to have a bad stomach, so I cooked medicine for him for a while." Under the sleeves of his robe, several vein-like blood vessels had protruded from the backs of his hands.

"Unexpectedly, Xiao Yongzi didn't know if it was because of diarrhea. He hadn't returned for a long time, and the soup and medicine had already been cooked, so there was no delay. The villain planned to send the medicine to the marshal's main account, so that the marshal could take the medicine while it was hot ’” Qian Lu didn’t even bat an eye, and just opened his mouth to tell a lie.

"Master, Xiao Yongzi has always been strong and cautious, and he was fine in the morning, so how could he have eaten the wrong stomach for no reason!" behind Feng Zizhi, a servant who was also dressed as the head waiter questioned.

He is the godfather of Xiao Yongzi who was driven away by Qian Lu──Feng Yuxiang.

Feng Yuxiang looked at Qian Lu suspiciously. The suspicion was that Qian Lu had played some tricks on his adopted son in order to seize the opportunity to perform in front of the marshal and the factory owner.

Thinking of this, Feng Yuxiang couldn't help feeling angry.

A dignified class leader actually competed with the little guy below for an opportunity!Really shameless!Really brazen!

As expected of godfather and adopted son, the thoughts and ideas of the two fathers and sons are also the same.

However, not only the father and son, but also the other servants behind Feng Zizhi also had the same idea.

And this is exactly the effect Qian Lu wanted to create.

In this way, even if the owner of the factory knew that there must be inaccuracies in what he said, he would only think that he wanted to steal credit, suppress the younger generation, or deliberately save Feng Yuxiang's face, and would not think too much about it.

Qian Lu is not afraid that after Xiao Yongzi tells Feng Yuxiang the truth, Feng Yuxiang will tell the factory owner the truth afterwards.

Firstly, the factory officials are busy with their affairs, and there is no time and mood to listen to these "little things" about the struggles of the subordinates; secondly, now that Xiaoyongzi has "diarrhea", the "good intentions" of the money manager to prepare the Marshal's soup on his behalf are already in the factory. It was decided in front of the public that Feng Yuxiang would not get entangled in this matter again just to make fun of himself, and he would acquiesce in the loss of being dumb.

Although I had such a guess, the factory owner did not speak for a long time.

Qian Lu didn't dare to raise his head to observe Feng Zizhi's expression, so he could only lower his head deeply, so nervous that sweat was dripping from his forehead.

He suppressed the tension in his heart, and his brain turned rapidly, reflecting on his words and deeds just now, but there was something wrong with him.

Seeing that the soup and medicine started to warm up, Feng Zizhi said slowly: "The medicine is getting cold, we still have something to do at home, you should take the medicine to the marshal!"

call!Hearing this, Qian Lu breathed a sigh of relief.

It turned out that he was just hesitating whether to send the medicine to the marshal together, and almost got scared out of his wits!

"I'll send the medicine here, little one!" After Feng Zizhi agreed, Qian Lu picked up the medicine bowl, stepped back three steps respectfully, and then turned around and strode towards the main tent.

Feng Zizhi, who was about to leave, thought of Qian Lu's feeling of relief just now, and his long and narrow eyes couldn't help but squint slightly. No one knew what he was thinking, and no one dared to disturb him.

Suddenly, he raised his eyelids, and uttered two low voices from his throat: "Slow down!"

Qian Lu, who hadn't gone far, suddenly stopped.

Pfft!Pfft!

He began to slow down his breathing, but his heart beat faster and faster, blood rushed to his head, and his whole head began to make a "humming" sound.

Feng Zizhi passed him slowly, "Our family should go to the Marshal's! Otherwise, I'm afraid the bowl of medicine will not be finished until tomorrow morning! Feng Yuxiang, Jin Ying, Xiao Jingchang, Sun Hong, you should go to work first!"

"Yes, Mr. Factory." Those who were named responded in unison.

After Feng Zizhi passed Qian Lu by seven or eight steps, Qian Lu came to his senses, and quickly followed Feng Zizhi's pace with the medicine bowl in his hand.

At this time, his heart was beating wildly, his chest was tight and he was short of breath. While speculating whether the factory owner had discovered his little trick, he comforted himself by thinking that the factory owner had no doubts.

Qian Lu smiled wryly in his heart, if the factory owner came two more times, he probably died suddenly on the spot before the medicine bowl was delivered to the marshal's account.

At this time, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

But there is no turning back. Now that he has chosen, he has to continue even if he knows that the ending will be divided into five horses. Their factory owner is not a good-tempered person, and that... is not a good person either.

Most importantly, one infidelity is not tolerated a hundred times.

Even if he wanted to change his family now, the factory owner would not give him this chance.

and……

Nor can he change the court.

A flash of determination flashed across Qian Lu's downcast eyes.

Feng Zizhi kept an eye on Qian Lu while walking.

Feeling that Qian Lu was in a daze for a while before following up, he felt that something was wrong with Qian Lu.

Qian Lu is an old man in Dongchang. Before Feng Zizhi entered Dongchang, he had been rolling in Dongchang for many years.Although he is not particularly mature and prudent, he has a meticulous mind and has always been known for his shrewdness and sophistication.In Dongchang, a place where we are torn between civil and military officials externally, and internally with colleagues large and small, it stands still, making countless opponents daunting.How could such an old fox forget the password in the army?unless……

Feng Zizhi indifferently led Qian Lu and several small fans to put on tents one after another.

Unless, there is something big enough to occupy his whole mind, so that he can't take care of it, and he can't devote his mind to other places.

And this major event should be related to the medicine that Qian Lu was holding in his hand.Feng Zizhi reasoned calmly.

Finally someone couldn't help but want to attack Jingya?

emperor?Taishanghuang?King Zhongjing?King Zhongshun?Kang Hetai, a scholar of the Palace of Preserving Harmony?Martial Heroes University scholar Gao Gong?Minister of the Ministry of War Jiang Yan?The Wen family?The remnants of the Gongsun family?

The existence of Jingya hindered too many people.

Feng Zizhi concentrated his mind, his pace didn't slow down, and he cut out most of the suspected targets in his mind, leaving only seven candidates.

The first candidate is the current emperor.The emperor has long had the thought of hiding his bow and bow, but in the past he was afraid of falling into the mouth, saying that he couldn't tolerate the heroes, so he didn't have this idea.Now that Jingya defeated the Xiongnu coalition army and captured Hu Hanxie alive, the credit was so great that even if the emperor knew it was unsuccessful or if there was a slight leak, rumors would spread around the outside world, and the people's hearts would not be stable.

How can you allow others to snore on the side of the couch?Don't you see that in the past, Gao Wei, the empress of the Northern Qi Dynasty, at the price of sacrificing his own country, would rather collude with the enemy country and let thousands of soldiers die in vain on the battlefield than let Gao Changgong, the king of Lanling, a generation of war god, go back alive!Besides, people's hearts are separated by belly, how does the emperor know that Jing Ya is always loyal?As the saying goes: "Duke Zhou was afraid of the days of rumors, but Wang Mang was humble before usurping him. Xiang Shi died at the beginning, who knows if the truth will be true in his life?" If Jing Ya really turned against Zhou, then people will only act as an afterthought. Scolding the emperor for being soft-hearted, he didn't pay attention to the wolves, tigers and leopards around him.

The second candidate is the Supreme Emperor.Although the Supreme Emperor treats Jingya with great favor and trust, Feng Zizhi doesn't mind guessing the Supreme Emperor with the greatest maliciousness.It has always been the style of the royal family to cook rabbits to death.And he didn't believe that a cold-blooded emperor who could personally arrange to kill almost all his sons would give up a great opportunity to consolidate the imperial power because of small feelings.

As long as Jingya dies, the imperial court can justifiably take back the military power, and the military's dominance by one family will be formally broken.What the people on the dragon chair are most afraid of is that their subordinates will unite as one and become one, so how can they use their imperial skills! ?Over the years, because of Jing Ya's existence and the many times of using troops abroad, the court has allocated a lot of money and food to the military, and the military's power has continued to grow.Jing Ya is dead, and He Qi is old, so it doesn't matter how many years the military has been up and down.At that time, the unprotected military will be like a child in a busy market, afraid that it will be eaten up by the civil servants, and a group that may endanger the imperial power will be eliminated by the way.The previous emperors were not afraid of civil servants being fat. No matter how fat the civil servants were, they would only be slaughtered. It is not like military officers who, once they become strong, have the strength to lift the table and jump off the chessboard.
