Chapter 108: Invitation by the Prince

But what surprised Zhou Yuji was that the general in front of him did not have the rage he expected. He knew it coldly and sent him away.
After a long time, Li Xiu let out a long sigh of relief after his eyes fixed on the list of ordnances in his hand.
He should be glad that he had discovered a mistake at this time, otherwise, the corruption would spread and sooner or later corrode the foundation of the Yongweiying Camp bit by bit.
In this case, if it is the day when the Yongwei Camp is really needed and you haven't noticed it yet, that is the real terror!
After thinking about it, Li Xiu couldn't help but feel helpless. He eliminated and reorganized elite soldiers and strong generals, and under his strict control, he could have such a bold thing. It is conceivable how decayed the other troops of the Ming Dynasty were.
As for these resold weapons, Li Xiu didn't have to think about it, he knew where they would fall.
After all, without huge profits, it is absolutely impossible to involve such a huge network of relationships.
Looking at the Ming Dynasty, only those who can give such great benefits are those huge merchants and gentry who are rich enough to compete with the country!
There is no need for the gentry and merchants in Jiangnan to go to the capital to spend money.
And history has clearly proved that there are many tyrants who are rich and unkind and even tyrants who are tyrant of the country.
Of course, no matter how rich the gentry is, if there is no power to help, it will not be able to break up such a huge network of relationships.
Although the Later Jin Tartars were so powerful that they even beat the world with their cavalry and shooting, and even had a great reputation for being less than ten thousand and invincible to the Jurchens, now, the Later Jin Dynasty's emphasis on firearms is not weaker than that of the Ming Dynasty!
At this point, Li Xiu sighed helplessly, internal and external troubles, natural and man-made disasters, looking around, there was a scene of a building that was about to fall, but there were countless borers inside, lying on the terminally ill body of the Ming Dynasty to suck blood!
In the past, although it was extremely clear, I had never had such a profound experience this time.
Nearby, near by your command!
And under such strict control!
Such something happened...
The lesson is profound!
After reflecting on himself for a long time, Li Xiu woke up from his thoughts. He tightened the hilt of the knife in his hand and stepped out. The guards beside him also followed him and surrounded him.
The knife has been unsheathed, and the Yongwei Camp tonight is destined to be uneasy!
...
More than half an hour later, Li Xiu walked out of the camp prison. Spotted blood stains were stained between the armor, and the gloomy eyebrows clearly proved that he was not calm at the moment.
"General, Dingguo Duke's Mansion has sent someone here and said that you are asking General, you will enter the mansion for a lecture."
At this time, a soldier rushed over and respectfully presented a beautifully decorated post in front of Li Xiu.
After the words came, Zhou Yuji and Erwazi, who were closely following Li Xiu, suddenly changed their expressions, and their eyes immediately gathered on Li Xiu.
"Reject him, just say that I am busy with military affairs!"
"Abide by the order!"
The soldiers took the order and left.
Li Xiu turned around and glanced at Zhou Yuji. Although he had never said anything, Zhou Yuji knew it instantly, held his fists and took the order, turned around and left.
"Brother Xiu, why did you refuse the invitation from the Duke Ding Mansion?"
While walking, Erwazi couldn't help but come up and ask.
This was heard, and Li Xiu stopped stepping and frowned and said, "Are you connected with the nobles?"
"ah?"
Erwazi was stunned. After reacting, he immediately waved his hands repeatedly: "How can you do it? Brother Xiu, what are you thinking? How could I have something to do with them!"
"We are not a member of the nobles yet, so don't have any contact with them for the time being! Just do your own thing with peace of mind!"
"I know, Brother Xiu, don't worry!"
Li Xiu waved his hand, looked down at the beautifully decorated post in his hand, but couldn't help but shake his head.
There are really few simple people in this Beijing court!
Even though the literary and nobles are now inferior to the martial arts, and even if the nobles have been lonely for a long time, the one-acre and three-point land in the capital is really complicated and has a lot of energy!
Not to mention reselling weapons and using inferior products as good ones, there are so many joints that need to be opened. Just because of the wise news, it should not be underestimated.
From discovery to arrest, and then to interrogation, it took only more than an hour, until late at night, and when I ordered martial law in the army and strictly prohibited going out, I could still get news so quickly and react!
This alone is enough to prove how huge the influence of these nobles who lived with the country in the capital was.
You should know that when Emperor Tianqi ordered the reorganization of the Yongwei Camp, Wei Zhongxian was fully responsible. Wei Zhongxian was not favored by the nobles. Under such circumstances, the Yongwei Camp would naturally have no chance to have the nobles.
Not to mention that since he took power, he has also cleaned up the entire Yongwei Battalion.
Under such circumstances, I could still reach in without any trace!
Li Xiu didn’t know whether to say they were powerful or they were stupid!
It is impolite to come but not go...
If you have a bad brain, you can stretch your claws across the boundary. It’s not just a matter of chopping off your claws!
Holding the invitation in his hand, Li Xiu looked indifferent, turned his head and looked at the direction of the palace, thought for a while, and then took a step. The personal guards followed him and headed towards the gate of the camp.
"Brother Xiu, are you going to enter the palace?"
Seeing Li Xiu's actions, Erwazi immediately called out.
"What's the matter?"
"Brother Xiu, wait a moment!"
Erwazi hurried away, and his voice was still recalling in the night sky.
Soon, Erwazi led a team of soldiers to come hurriedly.
"Brother Xiu, bring more people!"
Hearing this, Li Xiu was stunned, then patted Erwa's shoulder, and there was a hint of relief in the corner of his eyes.
It was late at night and the curfew had already arrived in the capital for a long time.
The streets were silent, without people, and the sound of beating people coming from the wind in the distance could be heard.
There were torches, and the flashing firelight shone through wherever the team went. Perhaps it was because Erwazi brought people to join in temporarily, so the accompanying soldiers were obviously more vigilant.
In fact, from the moment he stepped out of the camp, Li Xiu himself was also extremely vigilant.
The greedy head has to be wary of doing stupid things.
Shortly after leaving the camp, Li Xiu noticed the person who was following him.
This was not beyond Li Xiu's expectations, but after a while, the sudden arrival of several fast horses exceeded Li Xiu's surprise.
clang clang clang!
The blade was unsheathed, the army was lined up, and the soldiers were in a cold state, as if they had already locked in the few people who were racing on horseback.
"General, don't misunderstand it. The youngest one is the manager of the Duke of Dingguo. At the order of the head of the family, he invited the general into the palace for a lecture!"
Seeing this situation, several men were so scared that their faces were pale. The middle-aged man in charge subconsciously shouted.
"General, don't misunderstand that the youngest one is the manager of the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion. At the order of the head of the family, we invited the general into the mansion for a lecture!"
Chapter completed!
