Chapter 92 My name is Liu Wenzhong

"You still dare to come to the door? Do you think I dare not beat you?"

Zhao Wen put his hands on his hips, squinted his eyes, and stared at the middle-aged Confucian scholar.

The middle-aged Confucian scholar laughed lightly and said, "Do you know why I came here again?"

"I don't care why you came here, you just get out of here, far away." Zhao Wen ran down the steps, picked up the middle-aged Confucian scholar, and pushed him outside.

"You don't want to make a move." The middle-aged Confucian scholar dodged, broke free from Zhao Wen's hand, and quickly took two steps back.

Looking at the agile middle-aged Confucian scholar, Zhao Wen sneered and said, "I didn't expect you, an old dog, to be so skilled. Get out of here."

"Hehe, I just won't leave today." The Confucian scholar said in a deep voice.

"Uncle Liu? Why is it you?" Li Xiaoying stood at the gate, looking at the Confucian scholar in surprise.

The middle-aged Confucian scholar was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Li Xiaoying, and said in surprise, "You are?"

Li Xiaoying walked down the steps quickly and came directly in front of the Confucian scholar.

"It's me, I'm Li Xiaoying. My father is Li Qingwen, don't you know me?" Li Xiaoying asked urgently.

Zhao Wen pointed at the Confucian scholar, looked at Li Xiaoying in surprise, and said, "Do you know this old dog who knows nothing about heaven and earth?"

"What old dog, this is my father's close friend, who won the Juren together in the same year." Li Xiaoying gave Zhao Wen a blank look, and retorted.

When the Confucian scholar saw this, he immediately burst out laughing, "Who am I? It turns out to be Li Qingwen's daughter. Now, I haven't recognized you yet. Your father has defected to this kid too?"

"My father, my father, he..." Li Xiaoying said, tears gradually welled up in her eyes.

When the Confucian scholars saw this situation, they immediately understood.Years ago, he also knew that the Tartars had ravaged the land of Xuanfu.

It is estimated that my best friend has suffered misfortune in the turmoil.

The Confucian scholar sighed, and said slowly: "You have to mourn."

Seeing the familiarity of the two, Zhao Wen asked in surprise, "Xiaoying, do you really know him?"

Li Xiaoying wiped away her tears and said: "He was the same year as my father, and he won Juren together. He often came to my house to look for my father before, but he hasn't come in recent years."

"Yes, in recent years, my family has moved to the capital." The Confucian scholar said slowly. "I haven't seen you in the past few years. I didn't expect my best friend Li Qingwen to suffer misfortune. Sigh, the world is really impermanent."

Zhao Wen looked at the sad look on the Confucian scholar's face, and he didn't seem to be fake, so he said, "Your family has moved to the capital, but why are you here?"

The Confucian scholar waved his sleeves and said: "Nowadays, all the officials in the Manchu Dynasty are advocating that the current emperor is the king of saints. But is this really the case? Hehe, I don't want to talk about this matter. I don't bother to talk about it.

Today, the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty basically come from Donglin.But you know what the Donglin Party is like, so I won't say anything about it.

It's not too invincible to talk about it one by one, but it's not a fart when it comes to facts.I get angry when I mention them. "

Zhao Wen looked at the Confucian scholars jokingly, and said playfully, "What? I don't like him, or does he not like you?"

"Hmph, they're all a bunch of bastards, they're not good at planning." The middle-aged Confucian scholar flicked his sleeves, saying with envy.

"It's fine if you don't say it, but the more you talk about it, the more angry I get. A while ago, Liu Mao gave His Majesty an excuse in the military department. Guess what it is?" The Confucian scholar looked angry and didn't wait Zhao Wen reacted, and then continued: "The note he gave His Majesty is a note suggesting that Your Majesty abolish the Tianxia Post.

I really don't know what he thinks.The post station has such a long history of disadvantages, did it happen overnight?During the Jiajing Dynasty, the post station had become a good place for the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty to eat and take cards.But why did the officials at that time dare not propose to abolish the station?

There are too many ways here, if the post station is abolished, what will happen to the soldiers in those post stations?With their life lost, will they do unspeakable things? "

The Confucian scholar looked angry, "In order to show his loyalty to His Majesty, Liu Mao proposed to abolish the station. I really don't understand why His Majesty agreed? Such a big matter, without discussing it with the courtiers, just let it go." Let’s make a decision directly. Well, it’s really, it’s just a…”

The Confucian scholar looked distressed. Although he didn't say the last two words, Zhao Wen could tell from the Confucian scholar's mouth that the last two words were Hunjun.

Listening to the Confucian scholar's words, Zhao Wen paced slowly on the spot.

Sure enough, the inertia of history is still so huge.What should come is still coming. If the guess is right, Li Zicheng will also be on the stage of Daming.

"No, Chongzhen abolished the post station in the second year of Chongzhen. Now it is the first year of Chongzhen, why did this matter come a year earlier? What's going on?" Zhao Wen suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Could it be that something happened earlier because of my appearance?

Zhao Wen looked at the Confucian scholar and asked in a low voice: "Let's not talk about this first, I just want to ask you, what do you want to do here? Don't tell me that you just want to tell me these things? You scolded me before At that time, you didn't show me any face."

The Confucian scholar chuckled and said, "Didn't I not know that you were the guard of Longmen Castle? I came today because I actually wanted to join you."

"Follow me? Impossible, I won't want someone who calls me a dog." Zhao Wen turned around with a gloomy face.

Li Xiaoying hastily pulled the hem of Zhao Wen's clothes, leaned close to Zhao Wen's ear, and said in a low voice: "Brother Zhao, Uncle Liu's name is Liu Wenzhong. Don't look at Uncle Liu's nonchalant appearance. A man of real talent and learning.

At that time, with his talent and learning, even the number one scholar was no problem, but when he saw that the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty only cared about the position of the crown prince and did not care about the affairs of the world, he felt dissatisfied, so he closed his pen and no longer participated in the Spring Festival. .

Otherwise, with Uncle Liu's ability, a Jinshi would be easy to catch.Moreover, Uncle Liu is very proficient in numerology, and even some missionaries from the West who are proficient in numerology have to admire him. "

"What else? Are you telling the truth?" Zhao Wen turned his head, looked at the embarrassed Confucian scholar, and asked suspiciously.

Li Xiaoying said in a low voice: "Why am I lying to you, anyway, this man is very capable, my father has praised him several times in front of me before."

Zhao Wen looked at some Confucian scholars who were out of tune, and asked suspiciously: "You said before that Longmen Castle seems to be booming, but in fact it is burning with fire. Then do you have a solution?"

When Liu Wenzhong heard Zhao Wen's question, he felt happy, and immediately waved his hand and said, "This matter is difficult to say. It is not difficult to say."

"Oh? Why is it not difficult?" Zhao Wen looked at the Confucian scholar curiously.

"Hey, if you want to solve this matter, there are only two words."

"Which two words?"

"Just let it go!"

"What the hell? What do you mean by that? Why can't I understand?" Zhao Wen looked at Liu Wenzhong in a daze.

With his hands behind his back, Liu Wenzhong said with a serious face: "Nowadays there is civil unrest in Shaanxi, and the imperial army is encircling and suppressing it. But the civil unrest has not yet been resolved, but Liaodong Jiannu has raised troops to Shanhaiguan and invaded Ningjin. In addition, the Southwest The She'an Rebellion has not yet been settled, and now the imperial court is using troops everywhere.

However, there are only so many soldiers in the imperial court.You never know when it will be your turn.If someone is jealous of you, please tell your Majesty that the fifth-rank military strategy general Zhao Wen, who is guarding Longmen Castle in Xuanfu, is extremely brave, and his troops are powerful.You said, what would His Majesty think? "

Listening to Liu Wenzhong's words, Zhao Wen kept thinking about it.

What Liu Wenzhong said is not impossible, Zhao Wen also thought about this problem before.But after thinking for a long time, I couldn't think of a perfect answer, so I had to put this question on hold.

"Then what's the explanation for the two words?"

Chapter 93 Fan Zheng Brings Shanxi Merchants

Liu Wenzhong flicked his sleeves, coughed twice, cleared his throat, and said, "Do you know what's going on in the court today?"

"What does the current court situation have to do with me?"

"No, the situation in the court is closely related to you. Today, today's favorite minister is Cao Huachun, the chief inspector of ceremonies and the admiral of the East Factory.

Cao Huachun's words are extremely important in today's world. If you can follow Cao Huachun's path, you can avoid a lot of trouble. "

Liu Wenzhong stroked his beard lightly and said calmly.

Zhao Wenduan said: "Impossible, let me curry favor with a eunuch, it's impossible. Okay, don't talk about it. For Xiaoying's sake, I can take you in. Don't let me do this again in the future." carry."

"Hey, why don't you listen to persuasion. It's not good to be young and frivolous. It just let you live for a while, but didn't let you live forever." Liu Wenzhong became impatient when he heard that Zhao Wen didn't accept his opinion. .

"You are not young and frivolous, can you still be called a young man? That's enough, I won't talk to you anymore. I still have things to do." Zhao Wen waved his hand casually, and then said to Li Xiaoying: "You lead him first Familiarize yourself with the various things in Longmen Fort."

"Ugh!!!"

Liu Wenzhong looked at Zhao Wen's leaving back, slapped his thigh heavily, and sighed.

Li Xiaoying looked at Liu Wenzhong who had a resentful expression, and said with a smile, "Uncle Liu, don't worry about him, that's just how he is."

"Will he be able to do it? The entire Ming army is rotten. If he is ignored, what should we do if we encounter unspeakable things in the future?" Liu Wenzhong rubbed his face and sighed.

…………

Thousands of miles away from here, in Yinchuan Mansion, Ningxia Town, a young man wearing a hat and patched postman uniform looked at the Yinchuan post station with its closed gate, and frowned tightly.

"Hey, this is well done. Why did the imperial court want to close the station? Now that there is nothing to do, what should I do?"

This big man is Li Zicheng, but now he is still called Li Hongji.

"This errand that has been passed down from generation to generation, how can it be passed down to me? How can I meet my ancestors after I die?"

A gray-haired middle-aged man over half a century old was squatting by the gate of the inn, smoking dry cigarettes with a sad face.

Li Hongji looked at the middle-aged man, and asked suspiciously: "It's good, how can it be gone if it's gone?"

"Who knows, people in the world now say that today's son is a sage king who is rare in a thousand years. In my opinion, it's nothing more than that. Otherwise, how could the post station be abolished? Suddenly, the entire Ming Dynasty didn't know that there was How many postmen have lost their jobs. Alas!!!"

A puff of thick smoke spewed out of the middle-aged man's nose, and the creases on his face became a little more serious.

Li Hongji looked at the inn with the gate closed, heaved a long sigh, pulled the horse out of the inn, turned around and left.

There were originally more than 20 horses in this station, but when the news of the dismantling of the station came, they were all snatched up by the postmen in an instant.

Relying on his youth and strength, Li Hongji also snatched one.

This Yinchuan Prefecture is nearly a thousand miles away from Mizhi County. If you don't ride a horse, you don't know how long you will waste on the road.

After going back, it would be good to sell the horse for some silver, buy some land, and become a self-cultivator.

Li Hongji flicked the whip in his hand, and disappeared into the smoke and dust of Yinchuan Mansion.

"My lord, I got that glass mirror you mentioned for you."

Zhao Wenzheng was sitting in the hall, listening to Zhao Daniu and Song Hu report the recruit training situation to him, when Wang Liuqi hurried in from the outside.

"Really?" Zhao Wen stood up from his chair with a look of excitement.

Wang Liuqi nodded with surprise on his face, and then took out a palm-sized mirror from his arms.

Zhao Wen took the mirror, and his excitement gradually calmed down a bit.

"Not bad, not bad, Liuqi, I can't see that you are quite capable."

Looking at the palm-sized, clear glass mirror in his hand, Zhao Wen couldn't help but praise it.

"Hmph, he's an old man over fifty years old, and he's still so unsteady in his work." Seeing Wang Liuqi's expression of asking for credit, Zhao Daniu immediately felt uncomfortable.

"Da Niu, what are you talking about? Don't look at this small glass mirror in my hand. This thing is worth a lot of silver. It is estimated to be worth at least 50 taels." Zhao Wen stroked the mirror with a look on his face. Said joyfully.

When Zhao Daniu heard this, his eyes straightened, and he pointed at the glass mirror in Zhao Wen's hand in disbelief, "Is this thing really worth so much money? My lord, are you kidding me?"

Zhao Wen put away the mirror and said with a smile, "When have I ever lied to you? This mirror is really worth so much money."

"Oh my God, aren't we going to send it?" Zhao Daniu exclaimed, and hurriedly said to Wang Liuqi: "Hey, I was a little abrupt just now, I hope you don't have the same knowledge as me."

Zhao Wen looked at Zhao Daniu whose attitude had changed so much, and laughed and scolded: "No one is right, that's fine, you two go down first, I'm going to the glass kiln."

"My lord, according to the production process you gave, we also made a square mirror that is three feet square." Wang Liuqi bent over and walked slowly behind Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wen's face brightened, and he turned his head to look at Wang Liuqi, "Really? How is the effect of the mirror? Is the figure clear?"

"Go back to my lord, it's clear."

After hearing Wang Liuqi's affirmative tone, Zhao Wen was determined.

"The next step is to wait for Fan Zheng's group of Shanxi merchants." Zhao Wen squeezed his chin, squinted his eyes, and smiled at the corner of his mouth.

When Zhao Wen arrived at the glass kiln, he saw the crowd crowded in a small room, and exclaimed from time to time.

"My lord is here, my lord is here, get out of the way quickly." Wang Liuqi frowned as he looked at the small house full of people.

"My lord, this is the mirror."

Wang Liuqi pointed to the mirror on the table in the room, facing Zhao Wendao.

Zhao Wen looked in the mirror with a smile on his face.

He reached out and tapped on the mirror.

That crisp voice was so pleasant at this moment.

In fact, this mirror is not as smooth as the later generations, and the surface of the mirror is even slightly distorted.

But in the eyes of people in this era, it is an extraordinary existence.

"Put this mirror in a box filled with straw and move it to the garrison for me. It will be of great use to me."
