【Chapter 237】How to do whatever you want

(0237)

【Today's fourth update is delivered!】

"Mr. Wu, my subordinates say goodbye!"

After bowing his hand, Xu Xingxia said goodbye to Wu Haiming.

"Okay, OK, OK."

Wu Haiming responded a little stiffly, his face was not very good-looking.

Xu Xingxia turned around and walked all the way to the innermost part of the official residence. On the way, she met several Zhou Chaoshun's family members, who showed their identity and purpose, and they took Xu Xingxia directly into the back hall. Xu Xingxia looked around casually and found that wherever she passed, whether it was the architecture or the decoration, seemed dilapidated. Although Deng Rubai's residence was not very gorgeous, it was much better than Zhou Chaoshun.

At that time, the official residence structure was basically the front office and the rear residence. The official residence of the commander of the Zuotun Guard was also in this structure. Outside the three entry points, there were public areas. After the three entry points, it was a private area. It seemed that a psychic like Wu Haiming also had his own official residence. However, his official residence would not exist as an office place. Only the chief officer had such qualifications. Commander Tongzhi, command assistant, etc. were actually the deputy commander of the commander, who assisted the commander of the guard to handle official duties.

Zhou Chaoshun's residence looked a little dark on the side of the back hall. The surrounding colors were also a little dull. Obviously, his financial situation should not be very good. No matter what kind of high-ranking official he was, it would be a very troublesome thing if he was really sick. Many things could not be done by himself, which means that a lot of oil and water could not be retrieved. If he could not be retrieved, he would naturally not have a rich net worth. In addition to the medical expenses of illness, he would be unable to live in vain and would naturally be embarrassed.

At this level, there are still many ways to make money. Whether it is doing some business by yourself, or deducting money and food, or losing money and losing public funds, it is a good way to fill your own pockets. However, these things have to be done in person. After all, it is very dangerous to leave things that are shameful to outsiders to do. Moreover, there is a fierce Wu Haiming next to you, so it is even more impossible for Zhou Chaoshun to entrust them to outsiders to do.

In fact, with Zhou Chaoshun's situation, the best choice is to choose to retire and pass the position of commander commander to his son. Unfortunately, Zhou Chaoshun's eldest son did not grow up and could not succeed him. The Ming Dynasty stipulated that a man would be considered an adult at the age of thirteen. However, if a servant wants to succeed him, he must be 18 years old. This is a red line, which is difficult for ordinary people to break, and Zhou Chaoshun is of course no exception.

Zhou Chaoshun could not give up his position as the commander of the guard, even if he was very sick, he had to support him stubbornly. As long as he did not die, his position would not be replaced. As long as his eldest son was eighteen years old, he would win. At that time, even if he let go, the position of the commander of the guard of the Zuotun Guard would still belong to his Zhou family. Therefore, before this, he did not need to care about anything, but only needed to maintain his health. It is estimated that it was because of this that Wu Haiming could become the de facto leader of the Zuotun Guard.

Under the leadership of his family, Xu Xingxia slowly entered Zhou Chaoshun's bedroom. The light inside was darker, and it was difficult for people coming from outside to adapt for a while. It was quite difficult to see Zhou Chaoshun's face clearly. Even after adapting to the darkness, he could hardly see Zhou Chaoshun's face, and there was a tent between them. It was estimated that Zhou Chaoshun's condition was indeed quite serious and could not see people. The dark light was conducive to concealing his real condition.

"Xu Xingxia, a new thousand household in Zhenshuobao, will meet with the commander of the guard." Xu Xingxia stood one meter in front of the hospital bed, bent down and saluted, and said loudly. Every subordinate who came to visit Zhou Chaoshun responded at this distance, and of course he would not be an exception.

"No gifts, sit down and talk." Zhou Chaoshun spoke with a weak and intimate attitude. Due to the obstruction of the tent, Xu Xingxia could not see him. Judging from his voice, the commander of the Zuotun Guard was indeed not far from the time of departure. I hope he could hold on for a year or two. As long as he had not finally died, Wu Haiming would not be able to cover the sky with one hand. At least, with his own thousand households, Wu Haiming would not dare to do anything.

"Thank you, sir." Xu Xingxia agreed and sat down on the chair next to her. There were three chairs placed in the ward, all of which were used for those who were visiting the patient. It turned out that the number of chairs was as many as ten, and it could receive more than ten people at a time. However, in recent years, fewer and fewer people came to visit Zhou Chaoshun, and the number of chairs has also decreased. People's feelings and coldness and coldness in the world are inevitable.

On the hospital bed, Zhou Chaoshun looked at Xu Xingxia and didn't speak for a long time. It was not that he didn't want to say it, but that he didn't have the strength to say it. He didn't know where to start. This is the disadvantage of the military system of the garrison. An officer was obviously unable to take charge of his position, but due to hereditary relationship, most people could not replace them. It seemed that Chen Baiquan, a thousand households in Zhenshuobao, had not been able to replace him if his whole family had not died.

Why did war soldiers appear? I just wanted to bypass the hereditary system, which is a damn system, and establish another more practical military system. The hereditary system of the Wei army was formulated by Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, and the emperors behind did not dare to cancel it easily. Disrespect to Emperor Taizu, it would be easy to be attacked. The strength of the civil servant group is so strong that even the emperor could not resist it. Since he did not dare to cancel it, he had to go around it.

However, it is not easy to get around! The country cannot guarantee the money and food of the Wei Army. Even if it is a long-term arrears, the numbers on the books must be recognized. If it does not admit the account, the Wei Army will no longer be the national army, but a time bomb, which may explode at any time. It is difficult and difficult to have the Wei Army play a positive role, but the consequences of the Wei Army will be serious.

After a long time, Zhou Chaoshun accumulated the strength to speak and said weakly: "This time Zhenshuobao...ah...Xu Qianhu, Zuotunwei's hope will be placed on you. If there is a chance in the future...ah..."

He only said a few intermittent words, but did not say it again. Finally, he just sighed silently. If there was a chance in the future, he did not say anything. However, his basic meaning was already expressed in this sigh. Xu Xingxia, sitting opposite the hospital bed, could basically grasp Zhou Chaoshun's bitterness.

As the commander of Zuo Tun Guard, Zhou Chaoshun could only hold many things in his heart and could not say them easily. In fact, it would be unfair to push all the responsibilities on the head of Zuo Tun Guard. Everyone knows that this time Mo Rigen committed suicide and Ningxia Town suffered such a huge loss. The first thing to be responsible is the governor of Ningxia and the general officer of Ningxia. The lightest punishment should be dismissed from their posts and imprisoned for punishment.

However, the final result was to push a dead Qianhu out and bear all the guilt. Even if the others were guilty, they were just a drop in the bucket. At most, a few words were refuted, and the big storm was basically exposed. However, Qianhu was just a fifth-rank military officer, how much guilt can he bear? Unfortunately, Chen Baiquan was dead and his family was all dead, so naturally no one stood up to refute. Zhou Chaoshun, as the commander of the guard, was naturally powerless.

Of course, it is absolutely impossible to talk about Zhou Chaoshun's heart without any thoughts. He was wrongly accused of eating such a big dead cat, and he would be surprised if he had no emotions. Unfortunately, even if he had ideas or thoughts, what could he do? He was sick and could not even be a normal director, let alone argue with such a big matter. Wu Haiming must have read his jokes, and it would never be possible to stand up for Chen Baiquan.

Zhou Chaoshun could not like Xu Xingxia's arrival. After all, it was an outsider who stole his territory. The concept of the mountain in the military was very serious and very repulsive. The superior had never consulted his own opinions, so he directly assigned the thousand households of Zhenshuobao to another guard. It was not a good idea no matter how he thought about it! However, this was the direct order of the three-sided governor, and even the governor dared not say anything. He, a commander of the guard, dared not say anything? Even if he said it, what's the use?

Of course, if Zhou Chaoshun was very resistant to Xu Xingxia's arrival, it was not. After all, even the old demon Xu had vaguely heard of Xu Laomo who had been ill in bed for a long time. After learning that Xu Xingxia was about to serve as a thousand households in Zhenshuobao, he even sent people to collect Xu Xingxia's information. As a result, he couldn't tell if he didn't know it. He was shocked when he saw it. This old demon Xu was simply a murderous demon king. The number of Tartars who died at his hands was a little too high. Even celebrities like Mo Rigen and Tuoba Su fell in front of him.

Zuotun Guard has indeed been too weak in recent years. The weakest of the ten guards in Ningxia Town is probably the Zuotun Guard. This time he was beaten with a stick with a hard beating, and Zuotun Guard dared not say anything. If Xu Xingxia's arrival could bring some new atmosphere to Zuotun Guard, he would be more happy to see it. Anyway, Zuotun Guard has fallen to this point, and no matter how Xu Xingxia makes trouble, it will be worse than now. If he makes trouble for Zuotun Guard, even if he dies, he will feel a little bit of comfort.

"You do it well!" Zhou Chaoshun said weakly.

"Thank you sir! I will definitely give my all!" Xu Xingxia nodded and said.

Seeing that Zhou Chaoshun's complexion was indeed bad and he couldn't speak much, Xu Xingxia said goodbye. Wu Haiming had been waiting outside. Seeing Xu Xingxia coming out, Wu Haiming said with a smile: "Xu Qianhu, you are the first to come, the brothers of Zuotunwei have booked a banquet in Kuiyuan Building and invited Xu Qianhu to enjoy the scenery."
