The Red House starts from Liaodong

Chapter 106 Marriage
At some point in the capital, a rumor spread.

Haizhou used to be a large food storehouse for the old slave camp, and the food alone was worth millions of shi, and the weapons and armor were incalculable.

Think about it too, the logistics of the 10,000+ army, the old slave obtained from Liaoshenquan the materials that the imperial court originally saved to supply the entire Liaodong.

Therefore, many people believe it, and if they ask people around them, they can hear how Jinzhou's memorial was written.

Oh, 20 shi.

how is this possible.

According to the guidance of the same year, Han Hao played in the Metropolitan Procuratorate and asked for the promotion of Jinzhou's status many times. After hearing this rumor, his heart was shocked.

He is now tied too deeply with Jinzhou. If something happens to Jinzhou, he will also be implicated. No wonder he has a bad face.

One was worried, and the other hated Tang Qing'an for lying to him.

Chen Deyan came to him because of this matter, but he didn't want the other party to attack first, so he immediately showed a smile.

"Brother Han, may I ask how much bean grain there was before the fall of Liaoshen?"

Just one sentence made Han Hao wake up.

"Then tell me the real number, how much supplies did Tang Qing'an get from Haizhou?"

Han Hao invited Chen Deyan to sit down, and immediately asked again.

In his same year, Lu Zhongheng, the highest-ranking concubine, privately calculated for him, and there must be more than 20 shi.

But the millions of stones are definitely not true. Only the relevant people in Jinzhou know how much they got.

This is a pitfall. If one fails to deal with it, not only will Jinzhou be suspended, but Han Hao's future as a test censor will be affected.

Han Haoneng was a Jinshi in high school, and he was born in a hereditary military family. His vision is better than that of ordinary Jinshi. With Lu Zhongheng's guidance, he already knows it in his heart.

Tang Qing'an must have concealed the truth.

How could he not be clear about the bad habits of Liaodong generals.

Chen Deyan pondered.

Censor, the grade is very low, but the status is very important.

Very important.

When it came to the imperial court on local affairs, a memorandum from the censor could play a key role and change the outcome.

The status of the censor is very high, he is the most noble civil servant, even the elders of the cabinet dare to contradict, if any elder is impeached by the censor, according to the rules, he must go home and wait for the investigation. Only after the investigation is clear can he return to the cabinet , we can see its power.

Guangning Youtunwei has a censor, even if it is still a test censor, Tang Qing'an has already mentioned his third brother, and he must remember to win over this person in Beijing.

Both Han Hao and Tang Qing'an came from Guangning Youtunwei, they are naturally close, and both of them are the highest status people in Guangning Youtunwei.

Chen Deyan is Tang Qing'an's adopted brother, and he has been running around the capital for Jinzhou. Even if he is a white man, Han Hao is so polite to him and gives him three points of face.

"It is indeed more than 20 shi."

Hearing this, Han Hao had mixed feelings in his heart.

A trace of Jinzhou's trust in himself after all, this trust moved him, a trace of fear, Jinzhou is so bold, dare to conceal the battle report, it will implicate himself.

"Brother Han, you are also from Liao, and you know the suffering of Liao people." Chen Deyan sighed, as if he was also from Liao.

"The general has repeatedly asked the imperial court to help the Liao people and to send food, but have you heard the official document issued by the imperial court to the general?"

This official document did not pass through the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but Lu Zhongheng, a concubine who observed politics in the Imperial Academy, had seen it, so Han Hao also knew about it.

But he didn't answer, but waited for Chen Deyan's next words.

"Using the fees of the soldiers to support the people."

Chen Deyan closed his eyes in pain, then opened them, with a look of sorrow on his face, he sighed, "The imperial court actually gave up on the Liao people."

Ignoring Chen Deyan's pretentiousness, Han Hao frowned, what should Pansi do next.

"How much food did Tang Qing'an hide?"

"40 million stone."

Chen Deyan told the truth with a firm face.

"Jinzhou now has 50 people and 40 soldiers. The [-] shi of grain is only enough for Jinzhou to use for two months."

Han Hao looked at Chen Deyan with contempt.

This person has a lot of lies, but not much truth. As expected of a fellow from the Xue family, he is full of lies without changing his face.

Where did the 50 people in Jinzhou come from?Where did the 40 soldiers come from? How come [-] stones are only enough for two months?
Don't they all eat with their stomachs open, regardless of age?Even so, it will not be enough for two months.

"40 million stone."

Han Hao thought about this number, it's not too much, it can be reconciled.

"You really didn't lie to me?"

"Brother Han, you and I have known each other for more than half a year, in fact, I also know that I speak vulgarly and like to talk big, but I dare not lie to you about such a big matter.

My elder brother told me that before Donghai Fort started his family, he had been favored by Brother Han and his son, and now he needs Brother Han to take care of him in the court. The two families are actually one family.

So before my elder brother sent me to the capital, he told me that there is no need to hide the matter of Jinzhou from Brother Han, it's just my personality.

I was an apprentice in Xue's family since I was a child, and I learned a lot of tricks and tricks, so I didn't disclose it to you in advance. It's because of me, not because my brother deliberately deceived me. "

Han Hao's face looked better.

He knew that this person was a liar, and he also knew that Xue's family was a businessman's family, so he finally slacked off on Chen Deyan's self-deprecation.

Nine lies and one truth, the last heartfelt words also moved Han Hao a little, and he was reluctant to give up Jinzhou's great help in this regard.

So not too much to blame.

Chen Deyan looked at Han Hao's face, and knew that this person had been coaxed, and his heart fell to the ground.

This kid is getting harder and harder to coax.

Within a few days, Han Hao, together with Shangshu in the same year, asked the imperial court to send food to rescue 50 Liao people in Jinzhou.

After a heated debate with you back and forth.

The cabinet cannot withstand the vitality of the young censors, and the court really has no food to rescue hundreds of thousands of Liao people, so let Jinzhou take care of itself.

In other words, for the Liao people in Jinzhou, Jinzhou found a way to support themselves, and gave them the right to do things cheaply.

In the end, Tang Qing'an, the deputy general of Jinzhou, went to the shuffle and asked the court to send more soldiers, weapons, horses, ships, and food.

Jinzhou is well prepared, and next year it will go north to conquer the lost ground.

The issuance of such military orders, coupled with the method of besieging Wei and saving Zhao by the censors, finally suppressed the rumors in the capital.

Soon, the daughter of the capital married Jinzhou.

Tang Qing'an sneered when he learned that the old slave had sent an envoy to deliver the letter.

He has already learned from Beizhen that the old slave left the customs and united with his Mongolian allies to repel Lin Danhan and obtain countless fodder for cattle, horses and sheep.

Lin Danhan threw away his helmet and armor, retreated thousands of miles, and ran across the Laihe River before throwing off his pursuers.

Counting the days, when the old slave was fighting in the grassland, he still missed himself and preached his sufferings to those smugglers.

What originally stockpiled millions of shi in Haizhou, and countless armor and weapons, were all taken away by the general of Jinzhou.

Why do you have these supplies? The general of Jinzhou raises [-] elite soldiers.

These smuggling businessmen brought the old slave's words back to the capital.

If this matter hadn't been for the third younger brother to run for him in the capital, persuade the censor to come forward, and the nobles from various families to quell the rumors, the consequences would be disastrous.

Tang Qing'an was so frightened that he almost broke out in a cold sweat after reading the third brother's letter.

Up and down in Jinzhou, he has a very high prestige now, and he has become his voice, but he is not so high that he says rebellion, and the upper and lower will follow him to rebel.

As long as the imperial court asked him to return to Beijing to defend himself, he had no choice but to leave Jinzhou.

After all, he's only been in Golden State for less than a year.

Prestige needs to be maintained.

It takes time to grow.

According to Tang Qing'an's plan, he can protect himself within three years, he can listen to the instructions and not listen to the propaganda within five years, and he can only say his surname is Tang within ten years.

If the old slave doesn't make a move, it's all right, the attack is so ruthless.

It was only after returning to Shenyang that he began to use himself as a demon again.

"Cut off the messenger's nose and ears in public, and send it back to the old slave."

Tang Qing'an ordered that the envoy who was still holding the scepter outside the city was dragged off his horse by the Jinzhou soldiers, cut off his nose and ears outside the city, and let him go laughing.

The old slave's messenger's face was covered with blood, he was extremely ashamed and angry, and his hatred was overwhelming.

He has been serving as an envoy for the old slave for these years, even Mongolian Lin Dan Khan, no matter how hostile he is to the old slave, he would not dare to humiliate the old slave's envoy.

He never expected that he would receive such devastation in the small Golden State.

Going north next year was originally Tang Qing'an's plan. After receiving a letter from his third brother, he went along with the flow and went to the court.

In this way, he draws a clear line with the old slave and expresses his position to the court that he is wholeheartedly for the public.

And this opportunity for the old slave to come to his door just happened to gain the trust of the court.

The old slave has accumulated power for a long time, how could he think that someone would dare to provoke him like this.

Tang Qing'an was not afraid of his old slave.

Because Jia Lian also sent a letter, telling General Tang that he had worked so hard and found an opportunity to go to Macau, Hong Yi was relieved and was willing to sell cannons to Da Zhou.

As long as the Hongyi cannons arrive, Tang Qing'an will not be afraid even if the old servant leads an army to attack Jinzhou.

As for going north, everyone thought he would go north to attack Fuzhou. Although Fuzhou has a lot of land, it is still at the back and has not been in the plan for the past few years.

Terengganu.

pier.

A channel has been cleared, and the pier, which was already not enough, is getting more and more crowded with the rest of the ships.

But a group of sergeants with bright armor lined up neatly, and on the pier, ships with the Jinzhou flag monopolize this channel, waiting for the nobleman.

With such momentum, the rest of the ships could only line up honestly, not daring to make the slightest complaint, unloading and loading in crowded passageways elsewhere.

The eldest cousin Ding, the eldest cousin, Zhou Ji's family, Li Dun's family and other mother-in-law and daughter-in-law waited for the team from the capital in the shed.

Some soldiers went to buy melons, fruits, and snacks, and put them on the table in the shed to pass the time for these mothers-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Zhou Ji watched from time to time, he should have arrived.

Everyone waited anxiously, finally.

"I'm coming."

Someone with sharp eyes saw the carriage team from the capital.

Musical instruments sounded on the pier.

The mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law rushed up, and a bride with a phoenix crown and Xiapei, wearing a hipa, got into the sedan chair with the support of the maids.

The sedan chair was carried directly onto the big ship sent by Jinzhou, and then the sergeants lined up to board the ship.

"Tsk tsk, this is the bride of General Jinzhou."

On the pier, even the well-informed merchants had never seen such a wedding reception, and they were all amazed.

When the big ship from Jinzhou sailed away from the pier, the merchants chatted louder and louder.

"I heard that this is Teng's wife. The main wife is a lady from the Rongguo Mansion. Because she is too young, she stayed at home."

A businessman from the capital said to everyone.

"Wife Teng?"

Many people looked blank, and a few people explained that this was still a custom at the beginning of the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it has long been rare.

"It's a strange person after all, and getting married is also a strange thing."

Someone laughed.

Leng Zixing snorted and left here.

"This man is strange. Why is he angry?" The merchant was shocked, suspicious of the other party's background, and everyone did not dare to be self-willed, and continued to talk about the marriage of General Jinzhou, fearing that disaster would come out of their mouths.
