Do you know: I’m Xu Jiazi

The Duke's Mansion of Qi State,

The personal nanny is removing the hairpin for Princess Pingning.

"Princess, the Du family store came to deliver fashionable food to the house today. I chatted with the Du family for a while and got some interesting gossip."

Princess Pingning closed her eyes and said, "Say."

"The Du family said that they went to the Ningyuan Hou's Mansion yesterday and chatted with Aunt Chang of the Ningyuan Hou's family. They learned that the eldest sister of the Xu family brought an embroidery painting to the Gu family and the embroidery was perfect. She concentrated on studying it when she had nothing to do."

"Um"

"The Du family dared to ask for permission to take a look, and the eldest sister of the Xu family agreed."

"How about it? The Du family's embroidery workers are among the best in Bianjing. The eldest sister of the Xu family can make it clearer by letting them take a look."

"The Du family brought an old embroiderer with her. She said that she had seen this embroiderer several times! She said that in the early years, a skilled lady sent it to the Du family for consignment. Her needlework was unique, but she never used it again. Didn’t see it.”

"It's an interesting anecdote. After decades, I can see the same acupuncture technique again!"

"yes."

"Do you have any clues as to why the sons of the Xu family went to the Marquis Ningyuan's house?"

The personal nun used the acupuncture points on the princess's head to relieve the fatigue and pain of the scalp, and said:

"The servant asked the people below to spend some money and got some information from the fourth room of their house. It was said that the maid of the Xu family girl broke into the concubine's room and was going to be kidnapped by the concubine's people. The bodyguard brought by the Xu family The wife beat up the concubine and saved the maid."

"Huh? Is the Xu family in trouble because of this?"

"Of course you can't do such a trivial matter. The woman who kidnapped people is dead. The concubine went to cry and asked the healthy woman of the Xu family to pay for her life."

"Huh! I've messed up my dignity. Do you dare to touch the people in the master's courtyard and the concubine?"

"Yes. The Xu family brothers went to make a fuss, and finally handed it over to Mrs. Bai to handle it."

"Well, then the Xu family girl will be fine." Princess Pingning said,

Suddenly she was stunned, frowned and asked:

"How did the Xu family find out so quickly? Their two families are not close to each other."

"It is said that the Xu family brought two horses as a dowry, and the Xu family boy who came with the dowry before dawn rode to the Xu family to report the news."

Princess Pingning didn't say anything. Her personal maid knew what her girl was thinking.

If there were such natal brothers, the princess would not be so overbearing. When she was wronged, her natal brothers would naturally come forward to help.

If you don’t have any brothers from your mother’s side, you have to rely on yourself.

"Princess, my cousins ​​are coming to visit relatives these days, why don't you let Brother Heng go?"

"He's still young, so he shouldn't look at his cousins ​​less, so as not to distract him from studying."

"Yes, Princess, I understand."

After half an hour, the lights went out in the princess's room.

Someone sighed.

In the cold weather,

The moon and stars in the night sky are brighter.

The sun rises and the moon sets,

The night passed.

In the coldest morning,

Some people have already started setting up stalls on the street.

As the sky gets brighter,

In the cold air of Bianjing, people began to go shopping in a bustling manner.

There is a stove burning at a roadside stall, and the steam is steaming from the pot.

There are also vendors selling peach charms, door god paintings, and firecrackers.

Lanterns of various styles are hung on the scaffolding behind the roadside stalls.

There is an air of busyness and togetherness in the city.

at this time,

More than a dozen horses leave the city from Chaoyang Gate east of Bianjing

After leaving the city gate, he quickly picked up his horse.

Outside the city, the grass and trees are withered and yellow, and there is white frost everywhere.

Because there is no barrier from the city wall and the smoke of fireworks filling the streets,

After leaving the big city, the air suddenly became much colder.

Xu Zaijing rode on horseback and rushed to the station where the Tianwu Army was located with his father, eldest brother, and officials of the Zhou Dynasty.

I felt the difference in temperature as soon as I left the city.

He quickly covered his mouth, nose and chest with his cloak.

Fortunately, the station is only two miles away from Bianjing City, not very far.

After showing their tokens and verifying their identities, the troops entered the Tianwu Army's station.

It has been some time since Yong Yihou Xu Minghua took over the Tianwu Army.

There is no new official who takes office and makes a big fuss and replaces his own people.

Instead, simmer slowly.

The Xu family also refused to accept the benefits sent to them, making everyone think that he was also here to make money from the Forbidden Army.

But they didn't know that Xu Minghua turned over the bribes he received to the emperor.

While he was busy with the marriage of his eldest daughter and his nephew, he slowly found out the relationship behind the lieutenant general in the army through the invitations and drinks given by his soldiers and his disciples.

We also learned about the crimes of deducting soldiers' pay, drinking soldiers' blood, occupying civilian fields, and using soldiers for personal use.

At the same time, arrangements were made for the children of the Cao family, the Sun family, the Xu family, the Zhu family and other families to join the Tianwu Army, but most of their positions had a subtitle.

The senior officers were not replaced very often. After all, most of the senior officers were the children of noble generals, so there was no reason to change them, and it involved a lot.

On weekdays, the deputy general takes the lead in dealing with military officers, and they turn a blind eye to some matters as before.

Now that the pot has been heated up over a slow fire, Xu Minghua is ready to add more firewood to bring the pot to a boil.

Today, Xu Minghua and the Yasi handed over Xiu Mu's completed note, invited a senior official in charge of military discipline from the Yasi, and rode together to the headquarters of the Tianwu Army.

Boom, boom, boom!

The commander in the Tianwu Army station sounded the gathering drum.

Xu Zaijing stood behind his father and watched the generals of the Tianwu Army, one of the top four armies, gathering at a speed.

In his previous life, he was used to seeing his country's super handsome military parades and emergency rallies, and knew that there was nothing comparable on the earth at that time.

Nowadays, the Great Zhou Dynasty will naturally not look at the previous requirements of its own country's modern army.

But even if he lowered his demands, the speed at which the Tianwu Army gathered together after staying in the comfort zone of Bianjing for a long time was still jaw-droppingly slow.

The few sons who came back from following Xu Zaijing's father were doing better because of the hardships on the front line. During this period, they naturally tried every means to control the soldiers under their command, and their speed was okay.

But those who have been in Beijing for a long time may still be awake in a brothel somewhere in Bianjing.

Xu Zaijing saw the commanders of the six armies standing in front. One of them was wiping sweat. His legs were trembling as he stood. He entered the tent with a few breaths before the drum beat stopped.

When I clicked Mao, I found out that this person's surname was Bao.

The officers who were late or did not come were dealt with by Xu Minghua, and the vacant positions were used by the juniors who had good relations with the Xu family.

As for those who were good before, some were promoted, and some were directly deposed to the lower ranks.

Those who behaved recklessly were taken away by military disciplinary officers. Whether they lived or died depended on whether the people behind them were tough or not.

This move of the Tianwu Army not only put their own children in power, but also selected a few good lieutenants who could lead troops and added them to the Xu family's camp.

Xu Zaijing and his eldest brother also appeared in front of the army.

Get to know the lieutenants of the Tianwu Army.

Xu Zaijing had also heard from Gu Tingye before that he followed his father to the Gu family army to witness the scene, and now it was finally his turn to witness it.

The lieutenants in the army like to see this kind of scene, because getting to know these noble sons of generals early will be beneficial in the future.

However, combined with what Gu Tingye said before, what I see now, the gap between the two armies is still quite big.

But the time of taking over is different, so there is no need to compare.

Xu Minghua had to arrange the promotion, dismissal and punishment in the army, which would not be over for a while, while Xu Zaijing chatted with several cousins ​​about their feelings.

At noon, Xu Minghua and the generals of the Tianwu Army went to have lunch with the soldiers in the camp, accompanied by two brothers from the Xu family.

After eating, Xu Minghua still had to deal with the officers who had just arrived, and ordered the two brothers to go back first.

On the way out of camp.

Xu Zaijing rode on his horse and looked at the soldiers returning to the camp with smiles. Most of them came from Bianjing to complete the work for the officers, and sighed in his heart:

"Forces! That's it?"

Several soldiers passed by the two of them, walked a few steps quickly, and said: I heard others said that the lunch meal was several times richer than usual!

As he said this, the soldiers quickened their pace and walked towards the dining tent.

"Brother, do you think my father needs to do a martial arts performance and screen again?"

Xu Zaiduan also frowned, obviously not satisfied with the situation of the Tianwu Army:

"Martial arts requires monetary rewards. Now my father needs to hold on tighter to make things easier."

"Well, brother is right."

The two of them rode horses from Chaoyang Gate into Bianjing with their servants. The crowd became denser, so they could only slow down their speed.

Passers-by were also very eye-catching, and they gave way one after another when they saw these tall horses.

After passing the most crowded area of ​​the city gate, the horse's speed increased slightly.

But when we got near Pan Tower,

There were more people again.

At the end of the year, the business in Panlou in the southeast of the imperial city became more and more prosperous.

Many officials and wealthy people who returned to Bianjing from other places visited here, listened to operas on hook bars, and watched dances in brothels.

In some buildings, there will be four or five opera troupes singing.

The sound of gongs and drums can be heard from the roadside.

There are also people setting up stalls on the roadside performing arts and selling things, and the cheers and shouts are endless.

Naturally, the Xu family also slowed down their horses to avoid bumping into people.

At this time, there were sounds of struggling and screaming coming from the alley on the roadside.

Thanks to the big guys for the rewards!

Thank you readers for your support!
