rees covered with red leaves not far away. Of course, she would not tell the children that she had just walked around and was preoccupied with losing weight."the fourth aunt is much more beautiful tha...Yu Xiu returned to Yamen, the governor's mansion, and told her husband what she had seen and heard in Ningyuan.
Chen Bozong remembered what his wife said yesterday that after the monarch of Lingyuan County said goodbye, the princess spent some time alone with Princess Xiang. This morning, the princess refused to see her wife, but sent someone to invite Princess Xiang. Contact the younger brother again for something to get angry with the princess.
Chen Bozong vaguely understood.
just like some local officials want to give gifts to their father, people like the King of Xiang must also curry favor with the princess. The fourth younger brother is rough and upright, and he is very upright. I'm afraid he can't accept the princess's move.
Yu Xiu kept looking at her husband nervously and asked, "did you guess"
if anything else, Chen Bozong would tell her, but this is related to the princess "taking bribes", related to the princess's reputation, how can he say
only comforted: "the fourth brother has always had a hot temper, and the princess is not as willing to put up with him as we do, so it is inevitable to quarrel with each other for a long time." So in the evening I went to the Wei office to persuade my fourth brother to go and make amends for the princess. "
Yu Xiu is very worried about the young couple, but there is nothing he can do.
Chen Bozong: "after a rest in the afternoon, you can go to Ningyuan again after your hard work. You don't have to persuade the princess to calm down."
Yu Xiu nodded, she is also idle at home, as long as she can get the princess and her brother-in-law back together as soon as possible, not to mention two trips, she will be happy to run a broken leg.
husband and wife go their separate ways.
when the Yamen stopped taking legal action in the evening, Chen Bozong hastily changed into a regular suit, took only a boy and rode out of town.
since Chen Jingzong could not go home, Chen Jingzong set up a table case at the martial arts venue and asked the soldiers to queue up to count the problems of clothes, shoes and socks.
according to regulations, the health institute will provide each soldier with two sets of spring, autumn, summer and winter uniforms, as well as a set of armor. The clothes are accidentally broken, and the sewing and mending can be used, but if they have been worn for many years, the single clothes can be torn with a little effort, and there is no cotton in the cotton-padded clothes, it should be thrown away for a new one. Only when the soldiers wear delicious clothes and are in good health can they have the strength to exercise and cultivate the fields.
Fugui sat on the stool in charge of statistics, while Chen Jingzong kept an eye on people, in case anyone took advantage of other people's old clothes as their own, and received many sets of clothes in the future.
some of the officers in the upper ranks deduct their salaries, and not all the soldiers at the bottom are honest.
Xiang Baoshan came over, watched for a while, and motioned to Chen Jingzong to speak to one side.
"Shima, I know you love these soldiers and can't bear them to wear rags. How can we bear to do so" It's just that the military pay from the above is getting less and less year after year, and we can only spend it on the edge of the knife, which really doesn't take into account. "
Chen Jingzong looked at his serious face and was silent for a moment before showing an ugly smile: "it doesn't matter. I still have some savings that should be enough for this time." The emperor attaches great importance to me and sends me to the guard house. I will try my best to train 5,600 elite troops for the emperor! "
at first he had no choice but to pay for himself, but later he became impassioned, which was also in line with the impulsive loyalty of his old son-in-law and the emperor's son-in-law.
Xiang Baoshan was only amused.
fledgling officials, whether civil or military, may be like Chen Jingzong now, with the pure heart of serving the country with a loyal monarch. But before long, they will be splashed with a bucket of ice water by the old foxes of officialdom, and they will continue to be left out in the cold. If they want to get out of trouble, they can only collude with the old foxes.
he shook his head with a gesture of thinking for Chen Jingzong: "the horse loves soldiers like a son. I admire him very much. It's just that it's not a long-term plan to help the public in private. It's better for the horse to think more about himself."
Chen Jingzong seemed to listen. When Xiang Baoshan gave birth to a glimmer of hope that he might still be able to pull the horse over, he suddenly asked him, "can your excellency lend me some money" My own savings may not be enough. "

Xiang Baoshan:.
he hastened to find a beautiful excuse and turned away.
the soldiers in line looked at the two men from afar. They had been soldiers under Xiang Baoshan for so long that they all knew that Xiang Baoshan had come to persuade him not to send them new clothes. At this time, seeing that Xiang Baoshan clearly did not persuade him, some soldiers' eyes became wet.
Chen Jingzong returned to Fu Gui and noticed that there was a bloody whip wound on the wrist of the soldier who was handing the old clothes to Fu Gui for examination.
"how did you get hurt" Chen Jingzong rolled up his sleeves and could not refuse to ask.
the soldier was very tall, but he was emaciated and looked haggard. Seeing that Master Ma had sharp eyes, he dared not lie. He bowed his head and said, "yesterday, when I was working on Wangye's garden site, I accidentally dropped a piece of mahogany and was beaten twice by the royal supervisor."
all of the people behind him had just returned from there, all with angry faces.
they came to serve as soldiers in the guard station, because there were few wars in Lingzhou, and the king of Xiang and some officials enslaved them to do hard labor. If they were dissatisfied, they would be punished as deserters.
on days like this, they are not even as good as the boys of ordinary families. If they hadn't had relatives at home, they would have fled long ago!
"Master Sima, now that you are here, do we have to work outside again"
someone asked tentatively.
Chen Jingzong looked at the man who opened his mouth, then looked at the other soldiers who stared at him eagerly, and raised his voice, "what are you doing" Apart from taking care of the military field, I usually practice hard, and no one can be lazy! "
this sentence is sonorous and forceful, in exchange for a burst of high cheers from the soldiers!
outside the camp gate, Chen Bozong reported his identity to the guards, then stood by and waited for his fourth brother to come out.
Xiang Baoshan was about to return to the city. When he rode out, he caught a glimpse of a man with a jade face standing outside.
the guard promptly introduced: "Commander, this is the new governor of Lingzhou, Lord Chen!"
on hearing this, Xiang Baoshan hurriedly turned over and dismounted. Although his rank was higher than that of the governor, he should be controlled by the magistrate if anything happened to the prefecture.
after introducing himself, Xiang Baoshan asked, "are adults here to look for Ye Ma" Why don't you wait inside "
Chen Bozong said with a smile, "I'm looking for him for family affairs. Just talk about it here."
if Chen Jingzong said such serious words, Xiang Baoshan would only feel that Chen Jingzong was pretending, but the words came out of Chen Bozong's mouth, and a rough military attache of Xiang Baoshan could not help but be impressed by the Confucian elegance and humility of the first Yuan Lang.
of course, no matter how convinced he is, he will not join Chen GE's old camp for this. It is the most important thing to fill his own silver bag.
accompanied Chen Bozong for a while. Seeing Chen Jingzong coming, Xiang Baoshan said goodbye, thinking that he would report the matter to the King of Hunan later.
"what are you doing here"
Chen Jingzong asked impolitely, and Xiang Baoshan turned his head once.
Chen Bozong also put aside his modesty to outsiders and said in a cold voice, "you come with me."
Chen Jingzong snorted, but followed him out of the distance to make sure that no one could hear the conversation between the two brothers.
when choosing a place, Chen Bozong came straight to the point: "you are angry with the princess, but because the princess received a gift from the king of Xiang"
Chen Jingzong looked at him, but he didn't deny it, but he still had an impatient look on his face, but he explained the reason in a low voice.
Chen Bozong:.
Chen Jingzong: "this is between me and the princess. Don't worry about it. Just don't make trouble. By the way, since you're here today, come back three days later and get home from the show."ight to find your yard and hide in it all the time. In short, I have never soaked in Tangquan. You have aroused my interest. This time I must satisfy me."Huayang: "there are also three hundred guards...
