"Young master, you also made your debut, test him, and take advantage of him if you can't teach him. The scholar next to Chen Mingxia was obviously quite favored, and he was a little presumptuous at this time, and he actually braved his master.

Chen Mingxia looked at the scholar, if he was told to admit defeat, he would be unwilling, he was stumped by a martial artist and spread it, he couldn't raise his head in his life, but he didn't give up, pestering Wang Pu to win or lose in three games, which is tantamount to cheating, and I am afraid that he will be despised even more.

The general is worthy of being a child of a famous family, and the collection of books at home must be precious and unique, and Xiaosheng does not dare to disagree. Chen Mingxia's words implied that this question came from the Wang family's book collection, not Wang Pu's knowledge, and the literati present also nodded, the Wang family is a wealthy family, how can the inheritance of hundreds of years be idle, and it is very reasonable to have a rare collection of ancient books in the family, Wang Pu only occasionally saw it in his own collection, and wrote it down, not necessarily much scholarly.

Even Wang Yan was secretly frightened where there was such a collection of books at home, it must be very secretive, and he didn't even know about his own personal servants.

"So you're throwing in the towel. Wang Pu naturally couldn't let Chen Mingxia say so lightly, and it was advisable to chase after the poor with the remaining Yong.

"Hmph. Chen Mingxia was annoyed in his heart, and suddenly had an idea, and said: "The solution to the problem recorded in this ancient book is very profound, and it is difficult to distinguish the truth from the false in a hurry. "

"Hmph, if you lose and run away, where will I go to find you. Otherwise, make a note to admit defeat and mortgage it to me. You are limited to reply within three months, you can send someone to send a letter to Yanmen Pass, or you can come in person, as long as it is proved that my solution to this problem is wrong, I will return the note to you, if you do not come within the time limit, I will paste the note on the gate of Yanmen Pass for the world to enjoy. "

"Three, the third master is so vicious. One of the maids in the back exclaimed, but fortunately Wang Pu didn't hear it, but the other maids nodded secretly when they heard it.

Chen

Mingxia's face turned blue and trembled, but in the end he still picked up the pen and wrote down the note, glared at Wang Pu viciously, took the paper with the solution written on it and brushed it away, Wang Pu took the note from Wang Lu's hand, took a closer look, and did not find the hidden mystery, it was very incomprehensible, this Chen Mingxia was actually a trustworthy gentleman, could it be that he was wrongly blamed just now. He didn't know that the Ming Dynasty was a one-man society, credit is not only morality, but also the capital of a life in the world, if Chen Mingxia does not keep his word, he will be ruined, relatives and friends will break off friendship with him, and he can only be incognito in this life, and die in a foreign land.

Wang Pu mistakenly thought that Chen Mingxia was a gentleman, and felt guilty, so he no longer made things difficult for the literati present, gave five yuan to each of the beaten scholars, and asked the soldiers to give up half of the room.

The next morning, Wang Pu and the others packed up and continued their journey, and there was a thin figure at the threshold of the post station, but it was a scholar with a swollen face. When Wang Pu came to him, the scholar made a long gesture and said, "Student Lin Changxing, I have seen General Wang. "

"Lin Changxing, what's the matter with you. "

"General Wang said last night that he wanted to hire Xixi, although the student is not talented, he came to apply. "Lin Changxing is a down-and-out talent, he was also one of the scholars who was beaten last night, he got five yuan for the soup and medicine, and he thought about it all night in bed, this Wang Pu was born in a wealthy family, but his demeanor was easy-going, and he did not have the unattainable demeanor of ordinary wealthy children. is only a weak crown in a high position, should be a young man with empty ambitions, but it is not easy to be easy-going, and it is even more rare that this son will not flinch when encountering problems, and he can expect to achieve something in the future. I noticed last night that Wang Pu was indeed missing a western seat, if he could stay with this son of the Hao family surnamed Wang to assist the humerus, wouldn't it be better than taking refuge in a distant relative.

"It's not impossible for you to stay with me and do things, but I don't like to talk about it. "

"Students don't talk too much. "

"However, why were you beaten last night, if you look down on the soldiers, I can't want you, my team must be united, and there must not be many internal factions, tearing each other down on the battlefield, that is the way to die. "

"Ahh Lin Changxing was greatly impressed when he heard this, and said in his heart that he was worthy of being a famous family, and he really had some skills. "The student's family was ruined by the soldiers, and the parents were mutilated, so . Before he finished speaking, he was already choked up.

"Oh, that's excusable, okay, just stay and be a staff officer, my soldiers are good soldiers, they won't harm the people, don't be prejudiced against them. "

"Yes, Xie Dongjia hires students. "

Wang Pu and his entourage arrived at Yanmen Pass at dusk, at this time the city gate was closed, the city wall was about six meters high, and the guards of Yanmen Pass above poked out their heads and asked, "Please report your name if you come." "

"The commander of the Yanmen guard is Wang Pu, his own brother. "

"I'm sorry, the boss is not here, so I'm going to look for him. He retracted his head, but did not command the gates to be opened to the right or left.

"The owner, it's not good. Lin Changxing muttered.

"No, it's because we're not good. Wang Pu said with a smile.

After waiting for half an hour, the night was getting dark, the cold wind was fierce, and more than 100 of Wang Pu's personal soldiers were already very impatient, and the noise of the team came and went. Wang Pu frowned and ordered: "During the march, no noise is allowed, and the violator will be punished with twenty military sticks." "

After another moment, the city gate opened with a babble, and the three officers led the small officials to meet them and report their official names, namely the commander Zhou Shixian, the commander of the Tongzhi Zhou Shixian, and the commander Huang Dadou and Zhang Han.

"It's not the right time for me to come, I guess everyone is eating and working, everyone came out to pick me up. Wang Pu smiled at Zhou Shixian.

The commander made me wait for this. Zhou Shixian hurriedly made a big gift.

Wang Pu nodded and entered the city gate, at this time there were already torches sporadically lit on the wall, and the figures of soldiers could be faintly seen in the firelight, and asked, "Where is the former commander?"

Zhou Shixian's face was embarrassed, he hesitated for a while, and replied: "Lord Gong, he, hunting in the North Peak, said that someone saw a grizzly bear there the day before yesterday, and wanted to call to present it to the governor, and Lord Sun also followed. "

"Nonsense, isn't the governor in Taiyuan, and he is not the official who should be in charge, why do you want to slap him. "

"This. Zhou Shixian looked up at the new official who was only weak and weak, and said in his heart, you have a good father who is the governor, so naturally you don't need to slap others.

"The officer who answered the door just now, call him, and I'm going to ask him. Wang Pu remembered that the cold wind had been blowing outside the city gate for half an hour, and he was also very dissatisfied, if this guy did it on purpose, he should have been whipped a few times.

Zhou Shixian looked puzzled, turned around and asked his colleagues, he was pulled aside by his colleagues and whispered, returned to salute and said: "Lord Huiwang, today's duty is Baihu Gaoli, he went to find Lord Gong, we listened to Shi Baihu's report, only to learn that the Lord was waiting in front of the pass, so he came late, I hope the Lord will forgive the sin." "

"I hope your sin will be forgiven. All the officials saluted in unison.

"What kind of sin is it that the one on duty has run away. Wang Pu said coldly.

"For dereliction of duty, death in wartime, and dismissal in peacetime. The governor replied.

Wang

Pu nodded, and said in his heart: "If you don't fix it, I will write the word Wang upside down." "

"I'm tired, arrange a place for me to rest. "

Wang Pu was arranged in a courtyard

on the hillside, the bricks and stones of the house are very thick, so the seemingly tall courtyard is not spacious, Wang Pu and the six maids are each assigned to a small room, but this is not the time to hide in the quilt to keep warm, he accompanied by Zhou Shixian to inspect the Yanmen Pass, and barely figured out the layout of the pass in the night.

The whole Yanmen Pass is surrounded by a six-meter-high wall in a diamond shape, the shorter diagonal is a valley, and the only road through the pass, and there is a tall tower in the distance, which can be used as a guard lookout.

"Look, Lord Wang, they're back. "

I saw a point of light in the distance, which gradually turned into a long dragon of firelight, and the former commander shouted loudly from afar: "Rabbit cubs, the bear has hit, come down and share the bear meat." "

All the soldiers on the wall cheered, threw their weapons one after another, and went down to share the bear meat, Wang Pushen frowned, watching the city coaxing a group of people to compete for bear meat. His predecessor, Lord Gong, laughed and enjoyed himself, shouting, "Keep the bear's paws for the governor, keep the bearskins for me, and the meat will be given to you, hahaha." "

The

soldiers' family members, a group of peasant women, also arrived when they heard the news, and took the bears into the water with pots and pans. Wang Pu closed his eyes, and couldn't bear to look directly at the dignified military land.

Lin Changxing said on the side: "No wonder our officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty can't beat Jiannu." "

"Hmph, I'm afraid that this rabble can't even defeat the thieves. Wang Pu sneered.

After everyone divided the bear meat and dispersed, Zhou Shixian stepped forward to report, and Wang Pu stepped forward to make a move.

"Nephew Wang Xian, my old Gong and

Ling Zun are old friends, but he forgot about my old Gong and didn't come to see me, hehe. The former commander laughed.

"Lord Gong, I am so interested, now that it is an eventful season, the rogues are making trouble in the south, and the east is in the north, and my Ming henchmen are still in trouble, but you are derelict here to fight wild beasts. Wang Pu angrily reprimanded.

"What do you mean, boy. was reprimanded by the juniors, and the former commander suddenly lowered his face, revealing a fierce look on his face.

"Hundred households are high, kneel down for me. Wang Pu didn't bother to pay attention to the old horseman, and shouted loudly.

Gao Baihu was secretly frightened, he couldn't imagine that this new official was so stern, and he hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"Gao Li, you left the guard without permission while on duty. He was dismissed according to the law, and his waist card was removed. "

Gao Li's face was like ashes, and he begged for mercy: "My lord, spare me this time, I don't dare." The words were already in tears. In the Ming Dynasty, the hundred households were hereditary martial arts, and the Gao family was passed down for nine generations.

Wang Pu couldn't help but feel a little pity when he saw Gao Li's gaffe, but then he thought about it, Ci is not in charge of the army, and if he does not set rules for military discipline today, this Yanmen army and horse cannot be trained into a strong army as soon as possible, and what will be used to resist the Donglu and Liukou in the future.

The former commander said angrily: "Boy, sooner or later you will provoke a mutiny and be hacked to death by your subordinates. "

"Hmph, Lord Gong, this rabble you brought out is a dead end when it comes to the battlefield. I am strict about military discipline because I want to train a crack soldier so that they can win and survive on the battlefield. "

"You stinking bunny knows what. I went out to fight bears so that my sons could eat some meat, the court was in arrears every year, and my soldiers were hungry every day because they couldn't eat enough. "

"Haha, your incompetence will make the soldiers not have enough to eat, no wonder you bring out such a rabble who will only go to the battlefield to die. Wang Pu said with a smile.

"You, you don't want to be rampant, my old Gong is not easy to mess with. The former commander pointed at Wang Pu, so angry that he almost wanted to draw his knife and cut it.

"I don't want to talk nonsense with you, if you are dissatisfied with my approach, let's go to the Ministry of War to fight a lawsuit, and Wang will accompany you at any time. Wang Pu said proudly.

The former commander remembered that Wang Pu's backstage was Wang Wei, the governor of the left capital, and he was stunned for a moment, and went to the military department to fight a lawsuit. I had no choice but to leave with my sleeves in a huff.

But it was said that Gao Li was walking home in despair, and the

news that he was dismissed by the new commander Wang had spread quickly, and his subordinates all gathered around him to salute him, Gao Li smiled miserably and said, "I am no longer your head." "

In the distance, the

crying of the lady in the house was faintly heard, and the high centrifugal was like a knife, and the man's tears flowed down uncontrollably.

"Boss, this official can't do it, what are you doing here, with our ability, it's not better than staying in this bird place. Xiaoqi Zhao Xiao said indignantly, Gao Baihu has always valued him very much, and promoted him from a small soldier to a small banner, so he can marry this beautiful daughter-in-law now, which can be regarded as a great favor to him.

"Where else can I go, is it a thief? These words silenced all the big men present.

"It's not that the new Wang Commander is the son of a big man's family, he won't be hungry in the future, it's good to be able to eat enough this year, boss, you have the ability, maybe you will make meritorious contributions on the battlefield in the future and resume your original position. "

"It's also a fucking meritorious service, you are stupid, the officials don't treat us as human beings at all, if you really want to go to the battlefield in the future, it is important to save your own life. "

Everyone said some words of comfort, but they didn't know the point, and Gao Li and his wife hugged and cried all night. Wang Pu was not idle that night, and he and his six maids checked the account books all night.

The next day, Wang Pu got up early to gather all the officials and went to the treasury to count the utensils, grain and grass one by one. There are 466 guards in Yanmen, most of them are old and weak, and the sturdy people who are suitable for serving in the army are only about 200, and the equipment is mostly rotten, and the grain is only for subsistence, and there is no surplus food for the exercise.

"Hell difficulty. Wang Pu secretly complained in his heart, originally thought that Yanmen Pass was the main road leading to the capital in the west of Shaanxi, Gansu and Shanxi, and that a lot of gold could be extracted from the commercial goods that cleared the customs, and the local military horses were at least fully equipped and could still be used. I read the account book last night to know that in recent years, the Shaanxi and Gansu soldiers have been in turmoil and natural disasters, and the trade of commercial goods has long been cut off, and the income of Yanmen is a lot less, but fortunately, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, Yanmen Pass is an important place after all, from the year of Wanli to the year of the Apocalypse, the silver has never been interrupted, and the silver in the treasury is piled up a lot, the predecessor Gong is a miser, and he is stunned to let everyone eat grass, and the saved money is stored in the treasury, only in and out, but the result is to make wedding clothes for others, into Wang Pu's pocket.
