Ming Dynasty: The Rampant Crown Prince

Shanxi.

"Lord Commander, looking at the route of the thief army, it seems to be a feint."

In a military tent, a sturdy man in armor was bent over, looking at the sand table, which was a map of the western border city.

A deputy general held a thin wooden stick, pointed to the sand table and slowly analyzed: "Li Zicheng's department has been in Anyan, Shaanxi, and it is really difficult to move back and forth with Yangping, Shaanxi.

"They are like this, they robbed enough in Shaanxi, and they were chased by Sun Chuanting, so they ran to Shanxi, and when they grabbed enough, they were chased by us again, and they ran back to Shaanxi."

Yang Guozhu, the chief soldier of Shanxi (Chapter 63, wrote the wrong surname.

Yang Guozhu stood up, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, and said: "Shaanxi is Sun Chuanting's jurisdiction, we just need to manage Shanxi, the thief army dares to come and let them pay a heavy price, you take people to the border city near Shaanxi, garrison 20,000 horses, as soon as you find out the movement of the thief army, immediately exterminate it." "

The last general commands."

The lieutenant clenched his fists and withdrew.

Yang Guozhu then looked at Yan Siyin, the eunuch of the prison army, who was sitting leisurely drinking tea on the side, and frowned slightly.

This Yan Siyin relied on the fact that he was a prison sent by the palace, so he was powerful in Shanxi, and openly accepted bribes, which was really arrogant and hateful.

Although he was resentful in his heart, Yang Guozhu had no right to deal with Yan Siyin, not only that, but he also had to ask the eunuch Yan Siyin for everything.

Because, Yan Siyin is a prison sent by the Holy Lord, and he not only has the power to monitor the army, but also has the power to lead the troops when necessary.

"Father-in-law Yan, what do you think of this arrangement?"

Yang Guozhu asked with a smile, although he is the chief soldier of Shanxi and commands all the officers and soldiers, he also has to look at the face of the supervising army.

"You are the chief soldier, and I am not, how to deploy, how to fight, you have the final say."

Yan Siyin gouged out his ears, smiled nonchalantly, and said: "However, having said that, if you lose the battle, or if you mess around, use troops, and the deployment is not effective, I will report to the court and Your Majesty."

"So, what you're going to do, you'll see what you're going to do."

Yan Siyin said, his fingers flicked the teacup, and then knocked on the coffee table, the meaning was obvious, if he wanted him to say good things to His Majesty, he had to take some benefits, otherwise, he had to tell him something about everything.

This kind of thing, Yan Siyin also often does, even if you don't lose the battle, but you have no record, at this time, report to Your Majesty, a certain general soldier, useless soldiers, against the thief army, no gains, no courage and no strategy.

Normally, these words are sent to His Majesty's ears, and even if this general soldier is not punished, he is basically hopeless to rise.

"Father-in-law Yan, it's really hard to go back and forth to the barracks in recent days, it's a little bit here, please smile at it."

When Yang Guozhu saw Yan Siyin's pretending appearance, he really wanted to vomit, but he still endured it, took out a money bag from his arms, and sent it to the other party with a smile.

"Haha, it's easy to say."

Yan Siyin reached out and quickly took the money bag, weighed it in his hand, then put it into his arms with a smile, stood up, walked outside, just walked out of the tent, and looked back and smiled.

"As long as General Yang doesn't suffer defeat, you can do whatever you like, and when the time comes, I will definitely say more good things about you in front of Your Majesty."

After saying this, Yan Siyin left the barracks quickly.

"Hey..."

Yang Guozhu looked at the other party's back, shook his head again and again, the eunuchs sent out by this palace, what are they not doing, accepting bribes, throwing the pot, inviting the first place in merit, and starting a battle, this escape kung fu is even more unique.

After the battle was over, the kung fu of running out to pick up people's heads was even more unique.

In the afternoon, Zhang Guozhu was eating steamed buns while looking at the sand table, thinking about how to exterminate all the hidden thieves in Shanxi in one fell swoop.

"Lord Commander, the Jinyi Guard is here."

Just then, a herald ran in, a hint of surprise on his face.

"Jin Yiwei?"

Hearing this, Yang Guozhu was also suddenly shocked, who is Jinyiwei, the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, the minions, who specialize in arresting officials, and whoever the emperor wants to take, he uses Jinyiwei.

Moreover, now that the crown prince is in charge of the country, in a short period of time, there are many princes in the capital, and the ministers were arrested by Jinyiwei and beheaded, and he also knows these news.

"What are they doing here all of a sudden?"

Yang Guozhu couldn't help but feel a little flustered in his heart, and couldn't help but think: Jin Yiwei won't come to arrest him, don't you remember what happened?

Thinking about it, seven or eight brocade guards walked in, and one of the leaders was dressed in a green brocade costume and holding a booklet in his hand.

"This official Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi Baihu Lu Jian, on the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince, came to announce the Shanxi General Soldier Yang Guozhu."

He looked around, fixed his gaze on Yang Guozhu, and directly explained his intention.

"Yang Guozhu, the chief soldier of Shanxi, receives the order of His Royal Highness the Prince."

When Yang Guozhu heard this, he was slightly stunned, and immediately knelt down to accept the order.

"The palace learned that Yan Siyin, the supervisor of Shanxi, openly bribed local officials in Shanxi, looted the people's fat and people's ointment, and brought disaster to the country and the people.

After Lu Jian finished reading it, he handed down the booklet in his hand.

"Minister Yang Guozhu commands!"

After listening to the will, Yang Guozhu immediately showed a joyful smile on his face, and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Shengming!"

He had long seen that Yan Siyin was unhappy, but he had no right to deal with this person, but he didn't expect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to know about this person's evil deeds, and directly ordered the arrest of this person.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, as rumored to be, acted vigorously and decisively.

"Everyone, it's been a hard work along the way, come, a little meaning."

Yang Guozhu got up, immediately stepped forward, took out a money bag from his arms, and handed it over with a smile.

Although he was a martial artist, he was asked for so much money by Yan Siyin, and gradually, Yang Guozhu learned the way of being an official.

Seeing this, Lu Jian hesitated for a moment, and then put it away.

"Mr. Yang, take someone to arrest someone, let's move quickly, when it's over, I have to go back to my life, there are a lot of things."

Lu Jian doesn't talk nonsense, he is indeed in a hurry, and after returning to Beijing, he also has a lot of things to do.

......

After Yan Siyin left the barracks, he returned home, took out his money bag and opened it, showing a satisfied smile.

"This Yang Guozhu is good, every hint can understand its meaning, and it is fifty taels as soon as he gives it."

"Come on, bathe our house."

With a shrill shout, a maid walked in and began to serve him in a wide garment.

After bathing, Yan Siyin changed into clean clothes, walked out of the mansion again, and came directly to the county office.

As soon as the officials saw that it was Yan Siyin, they didn't dare to stop it, and let him shuttle in the county government, everyone knew that this person was from the palace, and they were all officials who did not enter the stream, of course they didn't dare to provoke.

"Yo... Eat too.

Yan Siyin came to the back hall of the county ya, kicked open the door of a room directly, and walked in with a swagger.

In the room, there were two people sitting, a middle-aged man in official uniform, and a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, who were sitting at the dining table.

"Grandpa Yan, what are you doing here?"

The door was suddenly kicked open, the two were startled, and the middle-aged man immediately protected his daughter behind him when he saw that it was Yan Siyin.

"Lord Ye, what about the filial piety money that our family is talking about?"

Yan Siyin walked to the dining table and sat down, touched the jade wrench on his thumb, and said with a smile.

"Father-in-law Yan, you will ask for a thousand taels for this opening, I am just a small county order, and my annual salary is only forty-five taels, how can I give you a thousand taels of filial piety money?"

Ye Fan had a bitter face, this Yan Siyin asked for filial piety money all over Shanxi, regardless of the size of the official position, he dared to ask for money, whether it was up to the governor or down to the county, without exception.

This time, Yan Siyin found him a few days ago and said that he wanted a thousand taels of filial piety money, how could he take it out.

"You must know that our family is from the palace, representing the saint, and we are not only here to supervise the army, but also to observe the people's feelings for Your Majesty."

Yan Siyin glanced at the girl behind Ye Fan with bad intentions, and said with a smile: "This filial piety money is not for our family, but for the saint, whether you give it or not, you can do it." "
