little emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 253 The Key
There are two memorials in front of Zhu Changluo, which are two invitations to war from the Ministry of War.One is by Shi Xing, Minister of the Ministry of War, and the other is by Song Yingchang, the left servant of the Ministry of War. The two memorials lead to the same goal through different routes, and they are all the main battles; Compared with the soaring arrogance that can be wiped out with a snap of the fingers, Song Yingchang's is so gray and inconspicuous.

But Shi Xing's copy of Zhu Changluo was only seen in half and then left aside, while Song Yingchang's copy was carefully read several times. Zhu Changluo's face looked gloomy and uncertain under the beating lights, but his expression remained calm. Even when Ye He came in, He didn't even notice.

Looking at Zhu Changluo, who was looking at the thick night outside the window, he looked back at Ye He, and suddenly smiled and said: "We have been preparing for so long, and this day is finally here."

Ye He reached out to pick up the memorial from the case, read it after a few glances, and frowned: "When are you going to fight?"

You don't need to talk too much when talking to Ye He, you can't hide the thoughts in your heart with just one look and one expression. Zhu Changluo lowered his eyelids, and his tone became deep and dignified: "Wartime waits for no one, not for a moment."

Ye He didn't speak, but frowned.The three major battalions have not been fully constructed, and it is not the best time to go out blindly.

As if he already knew what he was thinking, Zhu Changluo smiled clearly: "I don't need the three camps, I believe that many people are eager for this opportunity." Suddenly sighed: "Time, all I need now is time."

Ye He sighed. He knew how much thought Zhu Changluo had spent on this journey, how much resistance he had encountered, and all the things he had experienced before had passed without a trace. , and it is still like a bubble like a mirror flower, a moon in a water, and a mote of dust... It only bursts in an instant. Is this person ice-snow smart or a fool?Ye He, who was inexplicably angry, suddenly felt sad, turned his head away, snorted coldly, and suddenly remembered something: "Ma Gui and Xiong Tingbi have been arranged to the three camps, and Wu Weizhong is left, what are you going to do?"

Zhu Changluo's eyes flickered, and he said for a while, "Let Ma Gui take charge of the Fifth Army Battalion, and Xiong Tingbi take charge of the Xiaoqi Battalion."

For this appointment, Ye He, who had expected it, had no objection at all, and said in disbelief: "...Are you going to let Wu Weizhong take charge of Shenji Camp?"

Zhu Changluo burst out laughing, and Ye He, whose face was slightly red, was a little annoyed: "What do you want?"

"Shenji Battalion is our surprise soldier and ambush soldier. Its importance is self-evident. There is only one person who I can trust with."

Ye He was a little nervous, but pretended to ask casually: "...Who is it?"

After not hearing a human voice for a long time, Ye He looked up strangely, only to see Zhu Changluo looking at him with a half-smile.

The two of them stared silently, Ye He's eyes under the light were like a deep pool, black and shining, with a depth that could swallow everything; while Zhu Changluo's expression was calm, his sharpness was concealed, without any edges and corners, everything was done with a well-thought-out plan. clear.

"Then what about Wu Weizhong?"

Picking up Song Yingchang's memorabilia again, Zhu Changluo smiled and said, "General Wu is Qi Shaobao's subordinate, and he has a lot of experience in dealing with Japanese pirates. Naturally, I won't use my talents for nothing."

Ye He glanced at him and looked at his bright smile without any shadows. These things are already being settled, and there is no need for him to worry about it.Staring at the dark night sky outside the window, he found that there were no stars and no moon tonight, it was dark and confused, and suddenly he was upset.

Hearing the sigh, Zhu Changluo raised his head curiously, put down his hands, and saw Ye He frowning, looking straight into the distance, obviously worried.

"What are you thinking, so ecstatic?"

Seeing that Ye He ignored him, Zhu Changluo turned his head awkwardly, "Big Ye, it would be great if you were really my big brother."

Ye He turned his head and stared at him, and blurted out a word without thinking: "It's a good idea, I don't want a brother like you who doesn't even cherish his life."

Seeing Zhu Changluo's rapidly turning pale face, Ye He suddenly regretted it, but the words came out immediately. The thoughts that were suppressed in his heart were like a flood that had found an outlet, and could no longer be suppressed, almost growling: "You every day! Thinking so hard, have you ever thought about yourself?"

The eyes moved to the distance, the fire in the bottom of the eyes flickered and danced quietly, and the voice was ethereal and distant: "... As I said, I never worry about how long I can live, I am only afraid that I will not finish what I have to do." After finishing speaking With these words, Zhu Changluo's head suddenly sank, his tone became bleak, but his eyes, which no one saw, burst out with fiery light.

"Even if you lose my life, I will keep you safe."

This is a sentence whose tone is so flat that there is no fluctuation at all, but no one dares to ignore the endless firm determination contained in it.Looking at the graceful figure quickly disappearing into the darkness, Zhu Changluo suddenly smiled wryly. The poison in him has become an indelible obsession in this life. Although he is in danger, Ye He is not much better than himself...Suddenly remembered The tall figure of the instigator, Zhu Changluo's face suddenly became as cold as ice.

The lights in Uncle Li's mansion in the capital city were brightly lit, and a banquet was held in the flower hall. Delicious delicacies were served in flowing water, and the aroma of wine was overflowing among the toasts.

The host is Li Rusong, who has lived in Beijing for a long time and can't be more low-key. At this moment, he raised his glass high, smiled at one person and said, "Master Wu, Uncle Qi and my father have been friends for many years. Your name is even more familiar to me. I only hate us for being together." The south and the north are not allowed to get close, now that we have drunk this glass of wine, we are a family."

What Li Rusong said, let alone how Wu Weizhong felt when he heard it, but it was inexplicable surprise to the other senior officials present.

The first one who frowned was Shi Xing, Minister of the Ministry of War, and the second frowned was Song Yingchang, Minister of the Ministry of War; the two finally figured out that after a long time of drinking in Li's mansion today, it turned out that Li Rusong specially prepared a feast for Wu Weizhong... Realizing this point, Song Yingchang is fine, but Shi Xing looks unhappy.

Apart from Wu Weizhong, Li Rusong also invited Ma Gui, but not Xiong Tingbi; the strange thing is that Ma Gui didn't come, he just sent someone to the mansion to say something in person, the reason was that the military was busy and he would come to the mansion to thank him another day.Regarding this point, Li Rusong didn't take it seriously, his goal was very simple, and that was Wu Weizhong.

Glancing at Li Rusong who was smiling like a flower, Shi Xing, Minister of the Ministry of War, felt very sour.In terms of official rank, there is one person here, among all the people, I am undoubtedly the biggest and tallest one, but unfortunately the protagonist is not myself.Glancing at Song Yingchang, who was firmly seated in the third seat, and seeing that he still had such a dark face, thinking of all the things he didn't deal with in the past, Mr. Shi would not have to mention the conflict in his heart. It's so easy to offend, he won't come to this meeting today.

Wu Weizhong not only inherited Qi Jiguang's ability to train soldiers and fight wars, but also learned a lot from his old superior's ability to deal with personnel relations.This is also the secret of Qi Jiguang's sudden emergence and promotion to guerrilla general after the fall of Qi Jiguang.In a word, to be a man or an official is to know how to do things. This truth is universal no matter what dynasty you are in.

Faced with Li Rusong's flattery, Wu Weizhong naturally understood.Laughing heartily, he quickly stood up and touched the wine glass in his hand: "Uncle Li is a person who has always been admired in his heart. General Li is a tiger. Years ago, Ningxia rebelled against Weizhen on the frontier. The general's sharpness and determination, I only deserve to look up."

Seeing the two clapping hands and laughing, the wine was dry, and the pride was dry, as if they were the only heroes in the world.

Shi Xing looked at it coldly, unable to tell what it was like, the wine in his mouth had become sour and hard to swallow.This person is in a bad mood and feels that everything is an eyesore, his eyes are rolling around, and he has already thought of a way to get away from here, so that he can stay out of sight and out of mind from a distance.

Li Rubai, who was sitting next to accompany the guests, rolled his eyes wildly, seeing all this in his eyes, seeing his elder brother only talking with Wu Weizhong, and seeing Master Shi's expression as he was running fast on the ever-changing green road, he cried out inwardly. Miao, hurriedly took a glass of wine, and said to Shi Xing with a big tongue and a smile: "Come on, Master Shi, let's go together."

This is really not the most annoying, but more annoying... Staring at Li Rubai who approached with a hippie smile, Shi Xing's head suddenly became two big... Can he say that he doesn't like this guy very much?He came from the first class of six books, even if his father Li Chengliang was here, he had to address himself as an adult when he saw him, how could this kid dare to call himself brother and brother!

Although he was unhappy in every possible way, Shi Xing didn't show his face at all.

Being able to mix with six Shangshu, Shi Xing is naturally not a simple person.

In his opinion, there are no more than two types of children who have made meritorious service to the general family: one is very low-key, very humble, and can pretend to be a grandson than ordinary people. This kind is very arrogant and arrogant, like the second child of the sky and the third child, other than that, there is no place for him, and he can't wait to walk sideways; in the eyes of Shi Xing, the Li brothers take it for granted that they are the last kind.

Calmly pulling away the hand on his shoulder, Shi Xing smiled indifferently: "General Li is the dragon among men, Shi doesn't dare to climb high, so it's better to get rid of the title of brother."

dislike me?Dislike?Li Rubai, who was originally smiling, turned cold, and suddenly he said with a chuckle: "Master Shi said that after seeing how many drinks I drank, I didn't know the severity of my words, so I should be punished." Turning to look at Song Yingchang, he laughed a few times and said, "Master Song, can you show me some face, let's go one by one."

Shi Xing looked sideways to see how Song Yingchang would respond.Unexpectedly, Song Yingchang stood up, "I'm so overwhelmed." He was simple, direct and quick, and he drank his glass cleanly with his head up, and smiled at Li Rubai with the bottom of his glass, and gave Shi Xing a quiet look in his eyes. .

Regarding Song Yingchang's unexpected behavior, Shi Xing was almost sneering besides being dumbfounded.Da Ming has always paid attention to the use of literature to control martial arts, and he is not afraid of losing his identity when he calls a vulgar warrior a brother.Li Rubai was overjoyed, he stretched out his hand and patted Song Yingchang's shoulder vigorously, very affectionately.At this time, the conversation between Li Rusong and Wu Weizhong had officially entered the topic.

"Master Wu is able to win the favor of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince this time, and is especially promoted to enter the capital. He will definitely be on the rise in the future. My younger brother is here to congratulate in advance."

When this matter was mentioned, Wu Weizhong not only did not have a happy expression on his face, but was rather puzzled.His expression did not escape Li Rusong's eyes. He lifted the jug and poured a glass of wine, and asked intentionally or unintentionally: "Brother, does he have something on his mind? If you don't think brother is ignorant, what can you say? Brother is willing to help you." Brother, take a closer look."

Wu Weizhong glanced at him, stretched out his hand to avoid the glass of wine, and said with a wry smile: "Brother must know that I am not the only one transferred to Beijing this time..."

Li Rusong's eyes flickered, and he lowered his eyelids and said calmly, "Well, one is Ma Gui, the former general of Shanxi, and the other is a lieutenant under my father's account."

Wu Weizhong hummed noncommittally, and lowered his voice: "You know that both of these two have received transfer orders. Both of them have been transferred to the three major battalions of the capital. Ma Gui took over the fifth battalion, and Xiong Tingbi took over the Xiaoqi battalion."

This news was really unexpected, Li Rusong's expression changed, and he said in a solemn voice, "When did this happen?"

Wu Weizhong glanced at him, "It's this afternoon, I got the news from Mr. Yuge, and the decree will be issued immediately." Speaking of this, Wu Weizhong's face suddenly showed an unconcealable look of confusion: "But I am There is no arrangement, and Mr. Yu Ge doesn't know why."

Since the advent of the three major battalions of the capital, they have become so popular that they have attracted everyone's attention.At this time, Zhu Changluo arranged Ma Gui and Xiong Tingbi into the camp, but threw Wu Weizhong out, which made Li Rusong even more nervous.Thinking of the large number of letters that have flooded in from Liaodong these days, apart from describing the military situation in North Korea in great detail, at the same time, the old man's increasingly irritable mood reminded him that the matter is really at a critical point when.

But he signaled it openly and secretly, the prince clearly understood it in his heart, but he still kept his secretive attitude until now, which made Li Rusong feel depressed and suffocated.Wu Weizhong's appearance made him see hope, but this weird arrangement made him unable to guess its intention for a moment, what an annoying word.

At this moment, a family member hurried in from outside the hall.
