Chapter 244 Mr. Zhu

Not for a while, not for a long time.

For Kong Heizi's rigor, Wang Hua had experienced it before. It was he who learned the art from Kong Heizi after many years of training.In addition, he is a very self-disciplined person, the more he is like this, the happier Wang Hua is.Just imagine how can a person who is so profound in so many aspects not be self-disciplined?Otherwise don't say two lives, ten lives, it's useless.

Why did Kong Heizi become more fond of him the more he taught, and finally made an exception because this liking was for the Wang family, and the other one didn't want to have a good apprentice?

What about ordinary people?
But Wang Hua still said in Kong Heizi's ear: "Uncle Kong, take it easy on the first day, don't scare them."

Kong Heizi also said in a low voice: "Don't worry, let them think about it on the first day, and I will make them think about it very much in the future."

Thinking about it, Wang Hua felt a chill and hid aside.

On the first day, I really didn't scare these people.Although it is small and complex, some government soldiers set out before dawn because they lived in the mountains, and arrived at the county seat in the morning when the sun was very high.Therefore, in the middle of the afternoon application time, all must be disbanded.Another time for lunch was deducted, time was tight, Kong Heizi and the other generals mainly focused on explaining, and there was very little time for actual practice.

If it turned out that during the explanation, the government soldiers might not be able to concentrate, but now those weapons and armor are placed on the table, and there are horses behind them. Anyway, once the accounts are settled, the complete set is complete, so don't think about it without 34 guns.This still refers to the cheapest way to get it.

Even for the thirty or forty pennies, you have to pay attention to it, and it's Xue Rengui's apprentice who is teaching it personally.Now their mental state at this time is no better than that of Lu Ergou and the others.

One day passed.

The next day, Wang Hua got another good news. Liu Bingcao came back with many war horses.Obviously, after so many days, Liu Bingcao had suffered a lot. With a tired face, he saw Wang Hua approaching, and said, "No insult to the mission, I brought a 520 horse. Captain Wang, please take a look."

Wang Hua looked at it, and really didn't understand it, but looking at the appearance, it was not as tall as the war horse bestowed on him by Lao Wu, but each horse had a thick body, strong limbs, well-developed tendons, and thick coat.Looking at the tooth marks again, they are all between 12 and 15 years old.The normal lifespan of war horses in District 30 is [-] years, which means that these war horses are all young horses.

Wang Hua praised Liu Bingcao, only five thousand coins, the result has exceeded his expectations.

So many war horses occupy a lot of land, so Wang Hua asked the county magistrate to allocate a tidal flat and send special soldiers to guard and graze them.This requirement is easy to meet, but it still needs money, and grazing alone is not enough. The grassland area in Fanjun County is not much, so it is necessary to buy feed.But this is only a transition, once it is assigned to the various government soldiers, there will be no large grasslands, but there will still be a lot of small grasslands, and Wang Hua will be relieved of the burden.

But after the news came out, these government soldiers heard about it, and each of them became more confident.After harvesting during the day, almost every soldier of the government is still training himself at the entrance of the village in accordance with the teachings of several generals at night.

May is here, and there are a few guests from the county seat.

Wang Hua has just returned home, it should be called home, there is Xiao Yuzhen, and a middle-aged maidservant named Aunt Su.He sat down, Xiao Yuzhen made him a pot of tea, Wang Hua didn't care, let her do it if she wanted to.Being thirsty, I picked it up and took a sip.

The servant girl outside came in and reported that two people wanted to see him.

Wang Hua said, "Let them in."

When the guests entered the house, one guest Wang Hua knew, Wang Hua was still Wang Zihe, and he respected this person Wang Hua very much. A gentleman, a real gentleman. In the incident last time, he might be used as a gun by the old people in the family. The head is calling, and he may not know it until now.The other person was in his forties, with a thin face and a square face, but his eyes shone with wisdom.

Greeting each other, Wang Zihe introduced that person: "This is Zhu Xian, a guest of our Wang family."

"I've met Mr. Zhu," Wang Hua said indifferently. Keqing is a guest, and it is not unusual for the Wang family to have a few of them.Most of these retainers are composed of dissatisfied Confucian scholars. Since they have entered the eyes of the Wang family, it seems a bit wise.

After sitting down, Wang Hua asked, "May I ask why Wang Jun and Mr. Zhu are here?"

Wang Zihe replied: "I'm an old man. There are some points in the eight new songs that I still don't quite understand. I want to ask Captain Wang for advice. I will find an inn in Fanzheng and wait. I wonder if the captain can give me a thin noodle?"

This man is addicted to the piano.Even after chasing him to Fanjing County, he is not a life-and-death enemy, and with his talent, Wang Hua only needs to perform it once, and he can fully understand it.What's more, these tunes are not composed by himself, and Wang Hua will not go out of his way to cherish them.Nodding his head, he agreed.

Wang Zihe bowed deeply happily and said, "Thank you, Wang Jun."

Wang Hua helped him up, and he said, "There is one more thing. Our ancestors sent Mr. Zhu here, and they have some ideas to discuss with you."

Wang Hua wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he said, "Mr. Zhu, please tell me."

Now Hedong is not very far from Taiyuan, and Wang Hua doesn't want to offend too deeply.

"Wang Duwei should know the story of Duke Yuchi's return to Tang, right?"

It is Yuchi Jingde, a famous brave general in the Tang Dynasty.It turned out that it was Song Jingang's subordinates who assisted Song Jingang in attacking Tang Jinzhou and Huizhou, and defeated the Tang army, and captured Li Xiaoji, Dugu Huai'en, Yu Yun, Tang Jian and Liu Shirang, the chief of the army.His name once gave Li Yuan a headache when he heard it.But later he was defeated by Li Shimin and was surrendered by Li Shimin.Li Shimin treated him very well, and all the generals refused to accept it. Soon after, Li Shimin led 500 people to patrol the battlefield, but was trapped by Wang Shichong's general Shan Xiongxin.Yuchi Jingde jumped out of the horse in time, stabbed Shan Xiongxin and fell off the horse, and guarded Li Shimin to break out of the encirclement.Then he cooperated with Qu Tutong and defeated Wang Shichong. After the war, Li Shimin said to him in surprise: "Everyone said that you will betray me. The sky tempted me, which made me very clear-headed and treated you kindly. It came too soon."

From then on, he became Li Shimin's right-hand man.This man has one of his greatest skills, that is, he is good at avoiding the lance, which is the kind of weapon commonly used by the people of Tang Dynasty today. It captures the enemy's lance and stabs the enemy, a bit like Gusu Murong's reciprocating the other's body.Li Yuanji, king of Qi, is the original form of Li Yuanba in the novel, and he is also good at making horses, so he asked to compare with him.Yuchi Jingde dodged several times, Li Shimin saw that he was unhappy, and asked from the side: "Which is more difficult, avoiding the lance or seizing the lance?"

Yuchi Jingde said: "It is even more difficult to seize the lance."

"Then take it."

In a moment, the number one hero in the Sui and Tang Dynasties was taken away three times.Although Li Yuanji was amazed, he felt very ashamed in his heart.

Wang Hua nodded. He had read not only the official history, but also the Romance, several versions.How could the door gods of the Chinese people not know?
"Duke Yuchi and Taizu were also enemies at one time, but what happened later? Of course, our royal family does not have the guts to compare with Taizu, and we dare not treat Wang Duwei as Duke Yuchi for our own use."

Xiaoyu was really making tea with Aunt Su, the maidservant. Hearing this, she thought to herself, if you have the guts, I will immediately report to the emperor's grandma and destroy your Wang family.

But even Mr. Zhu was so wise, he didn't expect that the little girl making tea was a majestic princess, and he thought it was a little girl invited by Wang Hua, let alone pay attention to her expression.

In fact, it is also a helpless thing.Xiao Yuzhen was still young, and wanted to make Wang Hua like him more, but couldn't think of any way, so she watched how his wife did it.Began to learn to do housework, but very unsuccessfully.It was the first time I cooked a dish with Aunt Su, and after taking a bite, I was too embarrassed to do it myself.So she learned some simple tasks of making tea, but Wang Hua persuaded her not to persuade her, but she thought it would be an elegant thing for a princess to cook tea by hand, and it wasn't too much, so let her do it.

Mr. Zhu said again: "As Captain Wang himself said, there are no real friends and enemies. Just like in the Spring and Autumn Period, everyone is fighting. One day they may be enemies, but the next day they may be friends. In the past, certain things happened that made people Wang Duwei misunderstood, so today I came to Fanzhuan to say a word to Wang Duwei, according to the wishes of the ancestors of the Wang family and all the elders, from now on, the Wang family will regard Wang Duwei as a friend, a true friend."

Wang Hua said mockingly: "It seems that the Zheng family also said this sentence, um, they are really good friends."

Mr. Zhu was not angry, and smiled lightly, and said: "We didn't think of Captain Wang right away, so we immediately regarded our Wang family as friends, or Captain Wang said that no matter how good he said, we must do it. Do it for Wang Duwei." Look, Captain. I came here today to express my first goodwill. I heard that you bought some weapons and armor in Taiyuan Mansion. They were used to equip the soldiers in the mansion. Maybe because you didn’t have enough money, you didn’t buy all of them. These things, our royal family It is also prepared for you. Of course, with your character, you will not eat the food that comes from you, but it doesn’t matter. Our Wang family just pays in advance and asks you to organize the training of the soldiers immediately. After you get back the money, we will return it to our Wang family. Late."

It is impossible to hide the intention of this action from the eyes and ears of the Wang family.But Wang Hua said with a faint smile: "It's wrong, I still can't afford it. Besides, it's training now, and I'm not ready to fight right away. I'm not in a hurry."

"I'm really not in a hurry. Captain Wang didn't see the palace report from the imperial court. Didn't he think that the Turkic people might invade Hedong again at any time. Daizhou is also in the first place to bear the brunt. It's not because the training time is too late, but because they are afraid of a war. When the time comes, it will be too late for you to prepare.”

Wang Hua looked at him in surprise, it seems that the Wang family has talent.He said: "Mr. Zhu, this statement is wrong. If the Turkic people come to invade, at least tens of thousands of cavalry, what effect can my hundreds of soldiers play? The reason why I am doing this now is because the original situation in Zhechong Prefecture is not good. Great, let’s re-train the equipment. I’m still not in a hurry. Besides, it’s not necessary to invade Hedong, let alone Daizhou. Thank you for the kindness of the Wang family, but I can only say that I won’t accept the kindness if I accept it wholeheartedly.”

Mr. Zhu laughed and said: "Just for training, you are so aggressive. Maybe you can deceive outsiders, but you can really deceive people with discerning eyes. You obviously have a lot of intentions in this move, and it's not something that you can't see. Why dare you do it?" Don't dare to admit it?"

Hearing this, Wang Zihe was a little worried. Mr. Zhu's words were a little sharp, and Wang Hua's personality was fierce. He was really afraid that these two people would quarrel again.

But Wang Hua laughed and said, "What's the point if you recognize it? What's the point if you don't recognize it? It's just your family's kindness. No matter what the purpose is, I'm afraid now and dare not accept it, okay?"

"Success!" Mr. Zhu said angrily, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth again, and he said: "In addition to this matter this time, our Wang family also reached an agreement with the county magistrate Fanwan to provide [-] yuan of money to defend the city, and [-] yuan to protect the city. Give the money and let the county magistrate Fanjun repair the city wall again."

Wang Hua was taken aback for a moment, then couldn't laugh or cry.I don't want to get entangled with them, but if they use money to save the country, I just block it. The county magistrate will not listen to me in the case of the county, so he must be willing to accept the assistance of the Wang family this time.

But when the Wang family did this, Wang Hua had nothing to say. He gave out [-] yuan just to express his kindness. .

Nothing to say, but silence.

Mr. Zhu looked at Wang Hua's expression with satisfaction, and said: "Also, let me pass on another word, saying it is better to do it, but the seven surnames are huge, our Wang family is only at the end, and what we do is only our Wang family's duty." Something. Jun memorized a sentence, the seven surnames are the seven surnames, and the Wang family is the Wang family."

Wang Hua raised his head again, looked at him in surprise, thinking about the meaning behind this sentence, could it be that the Wang family and the Seven Surnames had conflicts.Today, Mr. Zhu has brought too much shock to himself.After a moment of silence, I had no choice but to say: "Okay, I hope your mansion really thinks so. I also have a word for you to bring back to the Wang family, just saying that I still don't want to be an enemy of your mansion. It’s as simple as that.”

"Jun's words made me very happy. But I have one more thing to say to you in private. This has nothing to do with the royal family and seniors."

"Please say."

"It's your marriage. This time, the nine daughters of King Xiang, the Missing Princess, are obviously disapproving of this marriage. The emperor is already old, and the prospect of this marriage is worrisome. And the young Princess is very young. I don't match you well. Why don't you find another way to think about it. For example, the little lady Wang in our house has a deep affection for you and is knowledgeable and reasonable. If you agree to this matter, I will definitely persuade my ancestors to make this marriage in secret and operate This matter broke up the marriage between the king and Xiang Wang. It can't be seen now, but after a few years, the situation may not be like this. And with the help of the seven surnames and the help of the Wang family, the future of the king is also bright. What do you think?"

Hearing what he said, even Wang Zihe looked forward to it. If that was the case, his poor little niece would have something to look forward to.

But Wang Hua almost laughed out loud. Mr. Zhu and Wang Hua could tell that he was a talent, but he also got his feet wet by the river, so he said this in front of others.He just pinches his nose, and it's not funny when he wants to laugh.

"Captain Wang, why this expression?" Mr. Zhu was still wondering.

Xiaoyu really made the tea, she pursed her mouth, Wang Hua was familiar with it, she was gritting her teeth.She came over and said, "Mr. Zhu, please have some tea."

After taking a sip of tea, Mr. Zhu spit it out immediately and said, "Why is this tea so bitter and salty?"

"You commoner, I made tea for you by myself, but you said it was bitter and salty!" The little girl said sharply, crossing her hands.Although she is young, she has watched the elders in the family a lot when they show off their power.

"Lonely?" Mr. Liu raised his head blankly.

Wang Hua finally laughed out loud and said, "That's right, she is the little princess. I think Mr. Zhu should drink this cup of tea obediently."
