The three of them sat and had a drink. Tang Jingchuan pushed the delicious food forward to Kang Fei, and asked him why he remembered to come to Huzhou to see me.

Kang Fei ate while saying vaguely: "Isn't this? Zeng Zizhong's wife and children exiled to Foshan? Although I don't recognize him, I'm not a relative, but I'm a native of my hometown. Old General Zhang Huan said he would escort his wife and children to Foshan. When I thought, Zeng Zizhong is from Jiangdu County, and I am also a commoner under Jiangdu County... Of course, the most important thing is that the veteran general is 82 years old this year. Brother Jingchuan, you know that the veteran general and I are also in the friendship of fighting together. It's not that the veteran general is old and still travels thousands of miles away... It's not that I cursed him behind my back, if I die on the road, there will be no one to collect the corpse."

When Tang Jingchuan and Pan Tianquan heard this, they looked at each other first, then solemnly pushed open the table, and the two of them gave Kang Fei a gift.

Kang Fei was startled and quickly put down his chopsticks, while chewing tea bamboo shoots. These are fresh and tender bamboo shoots produced in Tianmu Mountain. The bamboo shoots have a tea aroma and are extremely distinctive in taste.

"What are the two brothers doing?" Kang Fei stretched out his neck to swallow the bamboo shoots in his mouth, and then reached out to pull the two of them up.

Pan Tianquan was a little ashamed, "Zeng Zizhong is a senior in the imperial examination field, and he is honest and honest. He was imprisoned unjustly. As a Hanlin, I was helpless and could not even collect his body, let alone escorting his wife and children to Foshan... Compared with you, I am so ashamed."

This guy was still in the Hanlin period last year. On the sixth day of the first lunar month, Emperor Jiajing suddenly said during the grand court that "Is the regaining of Hetao? Is the fruits of the army famous? The fruits of the army have the strength to eat and the fruits of the foods have the excess, is it necessary to succeed?", which led to the great political turmoil at the beginning of the 27th year of Jiajing.

To be honest, Emperor Jiajing was already a very qualified emperor at this time. He had intended to recover Hetao before, but suddenly said this at the beginning of the year because he had no money.

The subsequent series of actions, including Zhu Wan's suppression of the Japanese, were actually under this premise.

The reason for regaining Hetao was that in the same year when Zeng Zizhong and Tang Jingchuan and others were on the list, Shanxi Governor Yang Shouqian engaged in military farming, and it was very successful and very vivid. Historical books say that the price of Jiubian Valley was [5 out of 10], and Yang Shouqian also opened a reward for beheading. A Tartar's head paid 50 taels of silver, and the situation at the border suddenly changed.

However, that was the Nine Borders, recognized by later experts, and the money bags that corrupt officials reached out. So, the big guys quickly worked together to promote Yang Shouqian, become the deputy chief envoy, and the governor Baoding.

Baoding is the Shuntian Prefecture in Northern Zhili, one of the two prefectures of Baoding Prefecture, and the governor of Baoding, which is the garrison of the capital, and not to mention the title of Deputy Chief Inspector, he was definitely promoted.

But the problem is, the unspoken rules of the officialdom, when people leave, tea is cold, Yang Shouqian leaves, what kind of farmland is going to be farmed, what kind of beheading is beheading? Stop making fun of it, just smile, the man is still waiting to get rich, and the farmland is going to prove that the food is worthless, how can he get rich? As for beheading fifty taels, this is, I’m sorry, I won’t leave Beijing for any salary, I’ll give you a discount... As for the corruption of the situation, hasn’t it been like this for 150 years? I haven’t seen it so badly, it’s just that the soldiers in the bottom class don’t wear pants.

Simply put, Yang Shouqian offended the people who reached out to the officialdom. Don’t be anxious. Don’t look at your promotion now. You want to mess with you. If you want to take it, you must give it first. Two years later, this guy was impeached by almost all officials and was beheaded and beheaded.

In this case, Emperor Jiajing suddenly discovered that it was easy to recover Hetao, but the Ministry of War’s budget could scare people at a glance...

To put it, it means that the child has a long story for his mother to say... In short, at the beginning of the year, Hanlin editor Pan Tianquan was demoted because he said a few words about Zeng Zizhong. Pan Tianquan's Pan family is a Huzhou family. The family is rich, unlike other poor Hanlin people. Therefore, he retired and ran home in anger.

He thought about it at this time that he resigned from office, which seemed noble, but in fact it would be useless. Looking at Dai Yuxian, although he was not old, his sentiment was tall, and he felt ashamed of himself.

When Kang Fei heard this, he couldn't help but say, Hanlin? Damn, Hanlin in the Ming Dynasty was known as the image of the emperor. Seeing you wearing a free scarf on your head, I thought you were a local rich man, but I didn't expect that you were a big boss!

Tang Jingchuan next to him sighed, "Zeng Zizhong and I are on the same list in the same year... At that time, everyone was full of energy. Lu Mingyan seemed to be yesterday, twenty years, twenty years, but he was beheaded in the market..." As he said that, tears in his tears, his shoulders shook.

When he cried like this, Kang Fei wanted to comfort him, and he complained in his heart that you big guys are all very emotional.

But he didn't know that Tang Jingchuan was a person who was hurt by his kindness. He was the first in the imperial examination back then and was a member. Later, he offended the boss. He was forced to retire and return home at the age of 24, and was idle at home... As he sighed, how many twenty years can life have in twenty years?

After crying for a while, he calmed down his emotions, wiped his tears, and said to Kang Fei: "I'll call you to laugh at my brother."

"Where can it be!" Kang Fei said quickly: "Wuwu may not be a true hero. How can I not be a husband? I know if the wind is roaring. When I look back, I look at Xiao Yutu. Old brother, you are a true hero, a true husband..."

He said, and tried harder than his thumb.

When Tang Jingchuan heard this, he wiped his tears and asked, "This poem has a bold spirit. Could it be Brother Chunlin's new work?"

Pan Tianquan next to him also applauded, "Wuruthless may not be a true hero. How can I not be a husband? It is indeed chewable and has a lot of aftertaste. It seems that Ling Zun, the leader of Yangzhou poetry world, is well-known..."

Kang Fei could only smile bitterly and said to himself [Lu Xun, I'm sorry!] while saying: "It's not a new work, this is my father's old work. I used to be a fool, and others have ridiculed him. To be honest, my father doesn't take office, probably because of my fault..."

Pan Tianquan couldn't help but applaud and sigh, "Ling Zunguo is a hero, so talented, but he is not for the court..." As he said that, he suddenly smiled bitterly, "It's better not to talk about this court now, come on, eat wine."

As the master, he frequently persuaded him to drink. Tang Jingchuan had something to do and refused to refuse the cup. The two of them soon got drunk.

Kang Fei could only smile bitterly when he looked at it, thinking that you two big guys got themselves drunk, but they didn't consider me... He turned around and looked at Zhang Dalang, "Brother Dalang..."

Zhang Dalang quickly said, "I'll go out and call the Pan family's people." As he said that, he went out, and suddenly the restaurant shopkeeper came. Seeing his master drunk, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "The head of the family has been drunk for the third time this month." As he said that, he called two servants from outside, one of whom carried the other, to get Pan Tianquan away, and then apologized to Kang Fei, "Master Gui has military affairs, so I dare not stay. Why not let a few servants give it away, okay?"

After hearing this, Kang Fei shook his hand and said, "Forget it." But although the butler asked, he insisted, arranged two cold sedan chairs and sent the person to the inn outside the city.

On the way, Zhang Dalang walked beside the sedan chair and said to Kang Fei: "The master is practicing soldiers in Yingzi Lake. That place is so big. I tell you, that place is weird. It is obviously Wu, but the locals speak Henan dialect. The people are strong. They practice sticks while arable land. If you want to recruit soldiers from the local area, it's a pity that the local tribe seems unwilling to do so. The master has never been able to recruit good soldiers and feels very distressed..."

His words told Tang Jingchuan the current situation.
