Chapter 688 Help
The capital was the top priority of the Great Qi Dynasty. Tianjin Wei, Jizhou Wei, Changping Wei, Baoding Wei, Baoding Wei, Baoding Wei, Zhending Wu, Tongzhou Second Wei and Xishan Daying were the barriers to the capital.
Originally, in addition to the Five Great Camps of Zhending and the Second Camp of Tongzhou, there were people from Duke Ding of the Kingdom Xiao Changdun and Duke of the Kingdom Yang Feng in several other Dawei offices. Since the Daxiangguo Temple Incident, these wards have been adjusted and Yang Feng’s people have been cleared.
Since Xiao Ren and Zhou Zheng arrived in Baoding Mansion one after another, Xiao Changdun secretly brought the Baoding forward and Baoding defenders completely.
Wen Huai, the commander of Baoding Avant-garde, is the youngest son of Wen Min, Linjiang Hou. He is a brother who has been playing with Xiao Wei since childhood. Anyone with noble children is not as naughty as a child. Xiao Wei and his elder brother Xiao Yi are only two years apart. The brothers are most intimate, and the relationship between Ju Yuanhuai and Xiao Yi is also good.
Linjiang Marquis was also one of Xiaoyun's twenty-four generals. He was seriously injured and survived, but he left the root of illness. He passed away after three years of his founding in the court. He was less than forty years old when he died. The Linjiang Marquis Mansion had nothing but a title. Several children were still young, but a large group of relatives who came to surrender, waiting to get some benefits from the orphans and widows. Some elders even wanted the wife of Linjiang Marquis to return to her parents' home and hand over the children to her relatives for raising her. It is conceivable that she wanted to hold the children in her hands and gain more benefits.
Thanks to the help of the old Duke of Ding, Xiao Yuan, the orphan and widowed mother, he was able to overcome the difficulties. The 14-year-old eldest son of Linjiang Marquis successfully inherited the title and won the favor of a third-rank military officer for the youngest son Wen Huai, who was under the age of one year. This is considered the top among the honors of the nobles.
Decades later, Wen Huai, who was still in his infancy, is now the General Zhaowu and the commander of the Baoding vanguard.
The commander of the Baoding rear guard was named Yin Qun, who was the grandson of Chen Yu, the Marquis of Dingxi. The Marquis of Dingxi and his two sons died in Yunnan one after another. Mrs. Yin was not protected by his father and brother. The Yin family was snobbish and the Chen family lived like a year. By chance, she met Xiao Changdun's wife. The two became handkerchiefs. She often brought her two children to visit the Duke of Dingguo Mansion. The old people of the Yin family no longer dared to make things difficult for this helpless daughter-in-law, and began to cultivate Chen's son Yin Qun.
Wen was able to appreciate the favor of the Xiao family, and many people in the court knew about it, but not many people knew about the relationship between Yin Qun and the Xiao family. After all, it was just a matter between the wife of the back house, and the Yin family was unwilling to let people know about the fact that they had bullied the Chen family. Therefore, it was not until Yin Qun was transferred from the south to Baoding Prefecture that some people thought it was strange, and even thought that the Xiao family did not want to give people a handle and balance the power, so they transferred Yin Qun over.
Therefore, the Dragon and Tiger Guard came from the south to the north, but Xiao Yi only came to Baoding once. It was not that the Xiao family did not pay attention to Baoding Prefecture, but that there were Wen Huai and Yin Qun here.
Early this morning, Baoding Prefect Wu Shili brought the magistrate Tang Gang to Baoding Avant-garde. Wen Huai and Wu's prefect did not have much contact on weekdays, but because of a few trivial matters, people had scared the magistrate Tang.
Therefore, when the magistrate Tang saw Wen Huai, he kept wiping sweat. The scholar met a soldier and couldn't explain why he, a sesame and mung bean official, was pulled over by the magistrate Wu.
When the prefect Wu saw Wen Huai, he kept complaining.
"Commander Wen has been here for a while. I think I have heard of the name Qitiao Heroes. Alas, early this morning, Xiaguan got the news that Qitiao Heroes kidnapped Zhou Cheng, the grandson of Zhou Tongzhi of the Beijing Defense Department! Commander Wen, Xiaguan's life, life, and a group of people from the prefectural office, the prefectural office, the prefectural office, the county office, hundreds of people, the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the capital and the... "
The official position of the prefect of Wu was quite difficult. There was no way. Baoding Prefecture was too close to the capital. In the past, it was a fat man, and as long as he was the previous prefect in Baoding Prefecture, it would be safe to join the six ministries. But he was unlucky. Emperor Taizu died in the first year of his tenure! The Empress Dowager ruled the affairs from behind the curtain. The Shen family, Mei family, and the important officials who had a relationship with the Shen family were either exiled or demoted. The court was turbulent. Except for the legitimate royal family and nobles, the civil servants were almost completely changed. The connections that the prefect Wu finally made in the capital were gone at once.
As a result, the prefect Wu became the longest-time prefect in Baoding's history.
He has been here for eighteen years.
He is ready to retire and retire next year.
He didn't want to make any mistakes in this last year.
But the more I don’t want to make a mistake, the unlucky thing will come to me.
"Who? The Tongzhi of the Jingwei Department? What's wrong?" Wen Huai looked puzzled. How could a mere Tongzhi of the Jingwei Department scare the Prime Minister Wu like this?
Priest Wu wiped a handful of sweat on his forehead. He understood that Wen Huai didn't hear the point in his words.
"Commander Wen, this co-priest, his surname is Zhou." The prefect Wu kindly reminded.
The magistrate Tang, who was standing by, shrank his neck, had no choice. The place occupied by the Baoding vanguard should have been under his control. However, the garrison was not under his control. It is conceivable that there have been many troubles over the years. Those military men caused trouble and were relied on the county government for something, so he wanted to take care of it. Wen Huai made people scare him. After a while, when he saw Wen Huai, his calves trembled.
Now, seeing the appearance of the magistrate Wu, County Magistrate Tang was in a better mood.
Look, Master Wu was also afraid.
Wen Huai finally heard the point, the key point was the word "Zhou".
"There are so many people with the surname Zhou, but not all of them are royal families. Besides, even if they are really royal families, then tie them up. As long as they are willing to pay for redeem people, the seven heroes and other bastards will not really tear up the votes. Master Wu, you hundreds of people will not be dead." Wen Huai laughed.
"No, Commander Wen, General Wen, you are also from the capital. All the masters of the royal family camp in the capital... I heard that this Zhou Tongzhi, his ancestors were the first Zhou family to raise trouble with Taizu. Needless to say, although every family in the royal family camp has good fortune, there are not many people who really make up for the gap like Zhou Tongzhi. From this we can see that this young master Zhou Cheng, Zhou, is definitely not able to touch. Alas, it would be fine if he had an accident elsewhere, but he was in Baoding Prefecture. Commander Wen, the subordinate officials, on behalf of our three yamen, hundreds of people, please help."
Master Wu's eyes were red. This was not pretending, it was true.
He had no other hope, he just wanted to retire safely.
As long as he survives this year, he will be able to bring his wealth back to his hometown and be a farmer who enjoys peace and prosperity.
Alas, he heard from people who have been to the capital that Zhou Cheng is a person who can't afford to offend him in the capital. Who would have thought that he would come to Baoding? You can't die wherever you die, but you just died in Baoding.
This will make people live!
