Prince Consort

King Gong has a good way of governing the army, and orders and prohibitions are only the most basic.It was rare for Xie Zean, the "imperial envoy", to come, and Prince Gong even showed his ability to look at the bottom of the box.

This is the strongest soldier in Daqing.

This review came in the evening.Xie Ze'an gave a short "speech" to the whole army. His voice was naturally not as loud as a warrior's, but when he said something, someone with a loudspeaker conveyed it down, and the words reached everyone's ears.

Since Xie Ze'an came, he didn't come empty-handed.In the blink of an eye, autumn and winter have already arrived, and the army should add another batch of cotton-padded clothes, and salt, oil, rice and grain should also be sent over.In the past, the conditions were not enough, and those who worked hard at the forefront lived the most difficult life. Now that there is surplus money everywhere, how can military expenses be saved.

Not extravagant, not wasteful, but good enough.No matter it is food, clothing, housing, and transportation, they all follow the "standards". Since there are basically no problems after the inspection, this "standard" naturally needs to be mentioned above the previous standards.Xie Ze'an didn't say much about the truth, but only talked about the aspects that will improve the welfare of the army in the future.The country is getting stronger and the people are getting richer. All of this is inseparable from the blood and sweat they shed on the border. The court has not forgotten them, and they will get the most appropriate arrangements when they go back.

If someone else announced these things, it would be suspected of recruiting the army, but everyone knew that Xie Zean was the son-in-law of the dynasty, and he was so good as Zhao Chongzhao that he could wear the same pair of trousers.His coming is equal to Zhao Chongzhao's bringing, and his meaning is equal to Zhao Chongzhao's meaning.Not to mention how much what he said can be realized, just saying "the court has not forgotten you" is enough to make many people cry.

That night, the whole army was served delicious broth and roast meat, and even a bowl of wine.The aroma floated far away, making the "outsiders" who heard the horn sound during the day and were waiting in full force swallow their saliva.Listening to the loud and neat military songs over there, many people turned their eyes red with envy, and cursed secretly, "Damn, when can we live like that." When people who understand Chinese speak Xie Zean's words After bringing it back, everyone was even more silent.

Not to mention the people in the army, even their common people don't have such good things!It is conceivable that if that "Xie Sanlang" hadn't told lies, the morale of the Daqing frontier army would have been even higher.

How can a person with confidence in his heart be afraid of fighting?Daqing will only get stronger and stronger!

Many foreigners who had been attached to Daqing in the early years slapped their thighs, and immediately sent envoys brazenly killing them to Tiger Jaw Pass to see the imperial envoy.

Xie Zean was drinking with people in the camp.Alcohol was originally banned in the army, but a group of old men held it back for so long, it was rare to lift the ban once, and they always found an excuse to drink to their heart's content, so one or two asked Prince Gong for favors, and wanted to come and exchange feelings with the imperial envoy .

Xie Ze'an had dealt with Yan Chong's people for so long at the beginning, and he still had some experience in getting along with warriors, and had a good time talking with them.

Xie Ze'an called himself a "treacherous minister", but in the eyes of many people, this was not the case.From the antifreeze medicine that Xie Zean presented to Zhao Chongzhao when he first met Zhao Chongzhao, to the cotton clothes that Xie Zean made later, everything is an indispensable "accessory" for them now.At the same time, Xie Ze'an engaged in shipping and farming, which made the army's salary improve day by day. Not only did they eat well and dress well, but the money they got back made other people's eyes envious!Not to mention that places such as agricultural cooperatives and newspaper residences have provided a large number of jobs for returning soldiers and generals, allowing them to earn a living after returning to their hometowns.

Counting one by one, many people no longer underestimate Xie Zean because of his age.

Someone got a little drunk and couldn't help wiping away tears: "Sanlang, ah, Sanlang, I don't know how many people's eyes are red after listening to your music."

Xie Ze'an didn't dare to take the credit: "I heard that from others."

Xie Ze'an heard too many things from others, and not many people believed what he said.Think about it too, for civil servants, these things are low-level after all, and few people will use them to promote them.

Then someone said: "One day we are here, the border will not be chaotic. We are gone, and there are our sons and grandsons. This land is ours, and we will not give up an inch!"

"Yes, not an inch!"

Xie Ze'an smiled slightly: "Then if someone else sends it with both hands, will we accept it?"

This time the voice became louder: "Take it! Of course I take it! Those who don't take it are the cowards!"

Xie Ze'an said: "Everyone has such courage, I can finally rest assured."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was outraged: "Hey, are you still worried that we have no courage? Are we blind when we guard the border for so many years?"

Some of the generals took the initiative to invite Ying, drew out their swords and wanted to show them to Xie Ze'an.

The sword dance in the army is no better than in the capital, and every move has a fierce killing intent.Matched with the general's rough figure, it is not a bit of a flair.

When he swung his sword back and stabbed towards the other side of the tent door, an orderly was about to lift the curtain to announce.The awe-inspiring sword energy was blown on the faces of everyone outside the door, and there was a sudden silence inside and outside the camp.

The rough general laughed, put his sword away and said, "I didn't expect a guest to come." He put the sword back into his waist, and bowed his hands to Xie Ze'an with dignity, "Xie Shangshu, the general will show his shame."

It was the "foreigner" envoys who were led by the messengers. After they surrendered to Daqing, they gradually settled here.Although the generals of the frontier army did not treat them coldly, they definitely did not treat them like this!Especially for this general who is careless by nature, he usually doesn't even give Prince Gong a lot of face!This guy can actually dance swords!

The envoys looked at each other in blank dismay, and soon had a higher opinion of Xie Ze'an.This "Xie Shangshu" who came from afar seems to be very remarkable!They couldn't help but look up.

At a glance, everyone involuntarily wrote surprise on their faces.This "shangshu" is much younger than they imagined, the Daqing court is no better than them, and the promotion of civil and military officials has rules to follow, how can there be such a small Shangshu!What's even more rare is that all the generals present seem to be convinced by him!

Weird!

The envoys came in such a hurry that they didn't understand Xie Ze'an's situation, so they could only look at the situation in front of them and go up to say hello: "I heard that the imperial envoy is coming, so we take the liberty to come to see the imperial envoy."

Xie Ze'an smiled at them: "There is no need to be so polite in the army. You can just call me Sanlang. Maybe I have drank wine with your leader, so we can be regarded as old friends. Say hello to your leader for me when you go back." Said After that, he asked someone to set up a banquet for the envoys, and recognized one by one which tribe they belonged to, and which young talents in the tribe should go south to serve the court.

Xie Ze'an's familiarity with the affiliated clan was shocking, and drinking and eating food was quite unpleasant.

In the army, it is not appropriate to hold a banquet until it is too late. After Xie Ze'an has achieved his goal, he will leave the banquet and return to the city.After entering Tiger Jaw City and returning to the palace, several familiar faces were waiting for him.Among them, the most familiar one is of course the black face of Mr. Yang. Even though he is getting older, Mr. Yang is still in good spirits.Smelling the faint smell of alcohol on Xie Ze'an's body, Old Yang snorted through his nose, and cursed: "It's fine to travel so far in a boat and car, and you're still drinking like a man, right?"

Xie Ze'an said: "They all cared about me and didn't let me drink too much. It's just a little bit. It's not a problem."

Elder Yang didn't believe him, and he insisted on taking his pulse before reluctantly letting him go.It's just that before leaving, he left a sentence: "Drink the medicine! Give me the medicine! Otherwise, I will make you look good."

Xie Zean smiled wryly.

Duan Wang was rather gloating: "Sanlang, you have offended Mr. Yang badly."

Mr. Tan warned: "Don't take it lightly, your body is the most important thing."

Prince Gong sneered at the side: "This guy is in good health, don't worry about it." He glanced up and down at Xie Ze'an, "Even if this kind of guy goes to the gate of hell a few times, he will crawl back. "

Xie Ze'an was not angry either: "Uncle Huang is right." Although his foundation is weaker than others, his will is much stronger than others, plus he usually pays attention to exercise, so there is no way he will make any trouble.

Prince Gong took the initiative to tell Tan Wuqiu what happened in the camp.

He is also a civil servant, and the treatment that others come to inspect is not as good as Xie Ze'an.The last time the guy named Du Wan came over, he barely peed his pants in fear, and ran away without even daring to enter the camp gate.The support Xie Zean received in the army was almost no less than that of his "Marshal".Even if Prince Gong doesn't want to admit it, it's fine, Xie Ze'an's reputation now seems to be catching up with that of "Linjun" back then, and it's not a problem to lead an army alone.

The three present here are all insiders. Prince Gong and Tan Wuqiu glanced at each other, and Tan Wuqiu said, "What you did in the army and the affiliated clan this time is too unscrupulous." Xie Ze'an shouldn't be the one to do this kind of kindness or prestige. It's not a good sign to be a master with great achievements. In ancient times, few powerful officials could have a good death.Tan Wuqiu said worriedly, "If Your Majesty becomes suspicious of you..."

Xie Ze'an smiled and said, "He won't."

Duan Wang mercilessly poured cold water on him: "Naturally not when the affection is strong, but what if the affection fades? As far as I know, my nephew is so easy to deceive, and almost let someone join forces with outsiders to kill you .”

Xie Ze'an said: "If the affection will fade, shouldn't you hold some things in your hands?"

Duan Wang was slightly taken aback.

Xie Ze'an smiled and said, "If I don't seize this power and take this merit, Zhao Chongzhao will be even more worried." His eyelashes drooped slightly, and after a while he raised his eyes to look at the three of Prince Gong, "Hesitation and fear and so on. , Your Majesty and I have never been short. We have come to this point, we don't want to be suspicious of each other anymore. Life is too short, why care so much. Even if one day it is as you said, Zhao Chongzhao and I will turn against each other , at least we once had a past where we trusted each other wholeheartedly."

Duan Wang said: "I didn't expect you to be the most innocent person."

Xie Ze'an said firmly: "I said that I am a gambler. I bet that I will win to the end, so I have no scruples."

Duan Wang fell silent.

Prince Gong said, "I'm not afraid of slipping my tongue when I say such big words."

Xie Ze'an smiled slightly and stopped talking.

Zhao Chongzhao, who was far away in the capital, seemed to sense something, stood up with his coat on, and couldn't help but read the letter he received in the evening.After Xie Ze'an left, he would write letters every day, and the letters were not too serious, most of them were lingering words of love.If someone like Xie Ze'an wants to make you feel sweet, how can there be any difficulty?What's more, as long as it is Xie Ze'an's letter, it is enough to make him edify him!

Tomorrow morning, ask the imperial dining room to make the recipe that San Lang sent in his letter, and he will also taste what San Lang has tasted!

Zhao Chongzhao thought happily, even the longing for the two months of separation was gone, and he fell asleep again with the short but tired words in the letter.
