Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 620
Ever since Li Hutou entered the Huwei Martial Arts Hall and met Emperor Wanli, he had a chance to be rich and had a bright future. First he was the general manager, and later he was the guard, and he was always ahead of his father Li Wenyuan.

Both the father and son of the Li family made great contributions to this rebellion in the capital, but what Li Wenyuan put down outside was Wumingbai's rebellion, the battle of catching chickens and chasing sheep, but Li Hutou and others in the palace escorted them, facing hundreds of people with a dozen people. Crazy thief, no matter from the significance or the degree of intensity can not be compared.

Coupled with Emperor Wanli's affection for Li Hutou in the past, this reward and promotion must be more generous than Li Wenyuan's, but Li Wenyuan will not be angry if the family is well-off, it's just a joke.

The three people in the room were actually quite tired, but they were all in a good mood. Lu Wancai took the folding fan and fanned it a few times, and asked Wang Tongdao with a smile:

"Don't just talk about us, what kind of reward did Brother Wang get this time?"

Wang Tong smiled and said:
"Your Majesty granted me the position of Commander of Jinyiwei, but it was just a verbal order."

"From now on, I will be called king brothers. Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the commander of Jinyiwei has never been so young. Congratulations, congratulations!!"

Lu Wancai congratulated with a smile, Wang Tong also nodded, and said:
"However, this appointment will have to wait until the chief assistant is selected. After another day of rest, I will return to Tianjin Wei the next day and receive the order in Tianjin!"

The appointment of the commander of Jinyiwei is a major event. The cabinet drafts, the supervisor of ceremonies approves the red, and the ministry publishes a document. Every procedure is indispensable, but Wang Tong is not in a hurry. He has stayed in Tianjin Wei for so many years.

".... The food and drinks from Zhenxing Building have been delivered..."

At this moment, Li Hutou yelled outside, and everyone stopped talking and walked out of the house.

Although Li Wenyuan's courtyard is narrow, there are Jinyiwei soldiers to help clean it every day. It is clean and tidy, and it is suitable for setting up two tables for banquets.

The Zhenxing building not only delivered the dishes, but also brought the tables, chairs and benches in a cart. The left and right were doing business for the master, with extra care. When Wang Tong and others came out, the tables, chairs and dishes were already set up. Covered with green gauze, there are several vertical lanterns on the side to illuminate the courtyard. There is also an incense burner in the corner, and the spices inside are used to smoke mosquitoes.

When Wang Tong came out, Li Tao and others also arrived. Chen Dahe's shoulders were already wrapped firmly with white cloth, and he also came together with his arms hanging. Wang Tong looked at him and said with a smile:

"Don't touch hair such as beef, mutton, fish and shrimp, lest the wound be damaged!"

Chen Dahe agreed, last night he was still on guard and waiting, but tonight everyone gathered together, feasting, talking and laughing. Although the generals of Huwei Army are young, they can't help but feel emotional.

Of course, the two tables of banquets were not only brought by Wang Tong from Tianjin Wei, Chen Sibao, Tang Sihai, Li Gui and Wang Si from Shuntian Mansion also greeted them, and now they have arrived, Tian Ronghao from the two hundred households It was also a big gathering of Wang Tong's relatives.

Although what happened last night was dangerous, everyone here benefited from it. The good days are coming soon, everyone is rejoicing and smiling, and the atmosphere is extremely happy.

Among the people present here, Tian Ronghao, a hundred households on South Street, probably had the highest position five years ago, but now he can only be regarded as the most ordinary. Everyone talked and laughed happily, and they were very cordial.

After Wang Tong entered the table, he saw Tian Ronghao also felt a little emotional. Back then, he was the most common soldier of Jinyiwei. He had to do all kinds of things to please Tian Baihu, and even gave away half of his father's property. Back then, he looked up to Tian Baihu. , but now it's turned upside down, the life situation is really impermanent.

"Tian Baihu, wait for me to go to your house once, pay homage to Uncle Tian, ​​and burn a few sticks of incense for his old man!"

Thinking of this, Wang Tong turned to Tian Baihu and said something to Tian Baihu. When Tian Baihu heard it, his body shook, but he got up and solemnly bowed and gave a big gift, and said:
"Thank you, my lord!"

Wang Tong smiled and nodded, but he was a little puzzled in his heart, thinking that he would not be worthy of receiving such a big gift because he missed his old feelings, but Lu Wancai next to him seemed serious, and came over and said in a low voice:
"Brother Wang, have you forgotten? Uncle Tian was an old servant who served Zhang Juzheng back then. Uncle Tian passed away, but everyone still looked at Zhang Juzheng's face. Now that Zhang Juzheng has gone, no one cares about him. Brother Wang, you go to pay homage. It is to add a talisman to him!"

Wang Tong couldn't help laughing, he really didn't expect this joint.

This night, everyone broke up happily.

************
On June 21, the martial law of the capital came into contact, and the streets became lively again. The people were shocked to find that the streets in the city had not suffered any damage. If there were not a few broken walls, I am afraid everyone You will think that the chaos of the night before was just a dream.

Thoughtful people can infer that after the chaos that night, the officers and soldiers in the city responded as quickly as possible to keep the chaos to a minimum.

Some people from outside the city came to the city and said that several places outside the city were severely damaged, hundreds of houses were burned down. It is said that when the riot broke out, the army from the Beijing camp was going to rescue them, but Xia Yuancheng, the deputy general of the Beijing camp, went to rescue them. I was reprimanded back, saying that the current situation is unstable, and soldiers and horses should not move rashly.

You look at Master Shen, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, seeing the chaos, he went to the homes of the nobles to persuade them to gather their families and go to the street, and cooperate with the officials and soldiers to quell the chaos and rescue. No wonder Xia Yuancheng is now in prison. Sure enough, he is a treacherous villain.

Taverns and teahouses are full of frothy discussions, most of which are just a few words from the eunuchs in the palace, saying that the Emperor Wanli was far-sighted, and the Empress Dowager made a judgment, summoning Wang Tong and other brave generals into the palace in advance, and smashing the evildoers and so on.

The news spread, apart from talking about Wang Tong, it was preaching that Shen Shixing, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, had great courage and courage, and summoned the family members of the noble and heroic families to quell the chaos. As for what Zhang Siwei, Minister of the Ministry of War did, it was just an official task assigned by the court Nothing to mention either.

The common people said so, but after a day, the opinions among the officials in the capital's scholars were quite different. In addition to praising the Wanli emperor Sheng Mingzong, the article said that Zhang Siwei was wise and brave, fearless in the face of danger, and calmed the chaos. Daming's Dinghaishenzhen.

People who understand the laws of the capital's political arena can easily judge something from the remarks of Qingliu scholars. They say that Zhang Siwei is wise and brave, and that he is the magic needle of Dinghai.

But this is also rare. Before Zhang Juzheng's Duoqing case, the official Qingliu often went up to criticize him, and he didn't suppress it until he used the method of thunder.

Zheng Zhang Siwei, as Zhang Juzheng's No. [-] apprentice party, has been hiding behind Zhang Juzheng all the time, and he was able to win the Qingliu public opinion to his side, which is really amazing.

After Wang Tong incensed Uncle Tian last night, he came back and washed up briefly before falling asleep. When he woke up, it was already broad daylight, and his shoulders were still a little tight, but the pain was not so sore. It must be that the medicinal wine had melted and had an effect.

Li Wenyuan had already gone out to be on duty, but Li Hutou got up early and ran to the South Street to play early. There was only Wang Tong in the yard, but there were three people waiting.

Wang Tong opened the door and went out to wash, but saw Yang Sichen waiting in the living room. Seeing him coming out, Yang Sichen quickly stood up and saluted. Wang Tong said with a smile:

"If Mr. Yang hadn't gone to Shen's Mansion, some things would not be perfect. It's really hard for Mr. Yang!"

No one knows how much chaos there will be that night. Wang Tong must mobilize all the power he can mobilize. The power of Chen Sibao and Tang Sihai's family must be taken into account, but whether it is someone from Shuntian Mansion or Jinyiwei I'm afraid it doesn't matter much, and it may even cause counterproductive effects.

But it's completely different when Minister of Rites Shen Shixing comes to the door, and besides other things, in the palace, Emperor Wanli asked about the candidate for the chief assistant.

Hearing this, Yang Sichen stood up with a wry smile, and looked at the two people around him. One was Xue Zhanye, a hundred household in Dongchang, and the other was a strange young eunuch. Xue Zhanye and the eunuch looked at each other. , Xue Zhanye said with a smile:

"Mr. Yang came first, he said first, and Eunuch Meng and I went outside to bask in the sun."

When the two went out, Yang Sichen took two steps forward and said:

"Master Shen has something to ask the students to pass to Master Wang. I am afraid that Zhang Siwei's first assistant position belongs to Zhang Siwei. If Zhang Siwei sits in this position, it may be a hindrance to Sir."

Hearing Yang Sichen's words, Wang Tong frowned, and said in a deep voice:
"Your Majesty once asked me in the palace who Shen Shixing and Zhang Siwei could be the chief assistant. Your Majesty also prefers Mr. Shen. Could it be that Mr. Shen misjudged..."

"Last night, Lord Shen's old friend came to inform us, saying that the scholar Qingliu and he were going to work together to promote Lord Zhang as the first assistant. Today, as expected, praises are popping up everywhere."

Wang Tong sneered and said:
"What is the noise of these scholars worth? Just ignore it."

"My lord, these words of officials and officials are really worthless. You can do things in Zhang Siwei's style. If you are not [-]% sure, how can he let these people make a fuss for him? Master Shen has no eyes and ears in the capital, but he also knows Zhang Siwei. These days, I have been walking around frequently with Wuqing Hou's family and Feng Bao, my lord, think about the meaning behind this."

Wang Tong frowned slowly, connecting internally and externally, relying on each other, the Empress Dowager and Feng Bao needed external support, if this was the condition, then they really had a lot of advantages over Shen Shixing, seeing Wang Tong's silence, Yang Sichen was a little anxious, Said eagerly:
"My lord is still in the capital, and I made plans that morning. Zhang Siwei can say a kind word for my lord in the court..."

If he reached an alliance with the Queen Mother and Feng Bao, what can he do, Wang Tong was a little annoyed, he gritted his teeth and said:

"I can do this even if Zhang Juzheng is so strong, what is he, Zhang Siwei!!"
