Wang Pu in the late Ming Dynasty

At this time, a disciple came in to report, and a scholar came to the door to ask for a meeting. Qin Kunan took the post and took a look, Chen Mingxia, the word Baishi, the first year of Chongzhen in Liyang, Jiangnan, was startled, Qin Kunan likes to be vassal, but he can only make friends with some down-and-out talents, and it has always been a pity in his life that he can't be with serious scholars. Today, a Jiangnan scholar suddenly came to the door, but it was unprecedented, and he hurriedly said: "Hurry up, please." "

Scholars have always held themselves in high esteem, and the slightest carelessness in their words will make them angry. And even if it was just a person, there were many old friends in the same year behind him, colluding with each other, and there was also power, he didn't dare to hold it up, so he instructed the Qin family rooms present: "A guest of honor is here today, go out to greet you together, and Ling'er's matter will be discussed later." "

Chen Mingxia entered the gate of the Qin Mansion, and saw a group of men, women and children of the Qin family, and the master ran out to salute him, only thinking that it was funny, this Qin family had no rules and regulations, and was just a businessman who could not be on the stage, so he looked down on him a lot.

"Xiaosheng Chen Mingxia, a hundred histories, a person from Liyang, Jiangnan, has seen Master Qin. Although he looked down on the Qin family, he had a fatal thing in Wang Pu's hands, so he had to bow his head to show goodwill.

"Hahaha, Chen Juren is actually a young man, he is really young and promising, and he has to admire him, the old man has been admiring Jiangnan for a long time, and he said that Jiangnan is a great talent, and today I was finally fortunate to meet one. The name is well deserved, the name is well deserved. Qin Kunan was very excited, most of the old men he had befriended in the past were some old men, and he was about to die, the people of the Ming Dynasty worshiped prodigies, believing that the age of three was set at eighty, and the younger the middle lift, the more appreciated he could get, and the greater his official position in the future.

"Master Qin praised falsely, the student overheard some words about Brother Wang Pu, and the student dared to guarantee with his life, Brother Wang Pu would never do such bestiality, so he came to intercede. Chen Mingxia was designed by Wang Pu, and suffered a dumb loss, so he had to go thousands of miles to find his teacher Xu Guangqi to verify the topic, but Xu Guangqi glanced at Wang Pu's solution, and forgot to sleep and eat.

Chen Mingxia took this letter and wanted to cry without tears, but he felt that Uncle Shi was a bastard and didn't understand the world, he and Wang Pu were enemies, and he would not be humiliated if he sent a letter to the past, but it was not appropriate not to send it, after all, Uncle Shi had suffered a lot in the past few days in order to understand this problem, and this favor could not be repaid.

There is also that fateful thing, if Wang Pufa really sticks it under the city of Yanmen, his career and future will not be good, think about it, only ask Wang Pu to show goodwill, and then talk about it after this pass. Chen Mingxia went to Yanmen first, was told that Wang Pu was in Taiyuan, and when he found Taiyuan, he heard the rumors spread all over the city, and suddenly had a plan.

"My grandson is a decent person, that is impeccable, the rumors in the market are pure slander, Chen Juren has a heart. Qin Kunan hated to portray Wang Pu as a morally perfect person at this time, and tried his best to resolve the rumors.

Chen Mingxia was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart: There is no wind and no waves, how can there be rumors if there is no disgrace, a merchant's daughter and a martial artist are shameless, incorruptible and shameless people, hum, Hugh wants to deceive me, this matter must be divided into three points to ten points, as long as Wang Pu's dog is ruined, I can get out.

"I hit it off with Brother Wang Pu at first sight, and

today I only do two things, one is that I have an important thing to ask Brother Wang Pu to return, and the other is a handwritten letter written by Lord Xu, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, to Brother Wang Pu, and dragged the younger generation to send it to Brother Wang Pu in person. "

The rooms of the Qin Mansion looked at each other, it turned out that Wang Pu had dealings with high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Rites, and the Wang family was really a powerful wealthy family, but fortunately they stopped the Wei family that day, and did not let her go to Wang Pu Xingshi to ask for the guilt, and besides, this matter is not reasonable, and the other party is powerful and powerful, and it is not their own loss if they are stiff.

"Chen Juren sent the letter thousands of miles away, it is a real celebrity, and the old man will do the rest of the things, the old man will send someone to deliver this letter, as for the important thing. "

"This, Master Qin's enthusiasm is difficult, Xiaosheng is indeed a little tired, bothering your mansion, just begging the elders who are bothered by Brother Wang Pu to get that important thing, it is more secure. "

"That's how it should be. Qin Kunan did not doubt him.

Wang Pu was listening to Wang Yan read the

official documents sent from the Yanmen guard in the study at this time, he was more accustomed to reading simplified characters, and it was a headache to read traditional characters, so he asked Wang Yan to do Xiaomi and sort out these official documents. It is not difficult to see that Wang Yan is talented and intelligent, and after being in contact with Kumon for a long time, he can put forward some very useful suggestions, at first Wang Yan was still a little cautious, for fear of being accused of being a chicken Si Chen, but found that Wang Pu didn't care about it, and gradually became bolder, as if he had discovered a new world, and his body was shining brightly these days, and his unconsciously temperament was very different from before.

A few days ago, his father Wang Wei beat him severely with family law, and immediately set off for the capital, Wang Wei heard from his father-in-law Qin Kun'an that Wang Pu would enter the prediction that Jiannu would enter Koushanxi in the near future, and felt that this was a good opportunity for Jane to be in the emperor's heart, passing through the Yanmen guard, and saw Wang Pu's improved new armor in the warehouse, he was very surprised, took away one, and sent someone to Wang Pu to say that he was going to do a big thing in the capital, if everything went well, he could get the emperor's permission to raise a recruiting army in Yanmen. In the Ming Dynasty, the guards were equivalent to the militia, and the recruits were equivalent to the field army, which were more elite and not easy to underpay. This made Wang Pu look forward to it very much.

Menzi came in to report, saying that it was from the Qin family, Wang Pu was inexplicably uneasy, the rumors all over the city made him in an embarrassing situation, these days according to the maids, the family went out and someone pointed at him. Wang Pu has never figured out where this inexplicable rumor came from, could it be that he inadvertently did something taboo in the Ming Dynasty, so that it caused criticism.

It was the uncle who came, Wang Pu lay on the bed and gave him his hand with difficulty, and said, "Uncle, please sit down, I am inconvenient to move, please forgive me." He grinned bitterly.

"Is the wound on my back healed, and it's not far from getting out of bed and walking to be able to lie down. Uncle nodded and said, "An old friend of yours, Chen Mingxia Chen Juren, came to our house today to deliver a letter to Lord Xu, a left attendant of the Ministry of Rites. Saying that, he took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Wang Yan, Wang Yan accepted the letter, and glanced at Wang Pu with a puzzled face, she and Wang Pu were almost inseparable, how could she not know that Wang Pu had dealings with the waiter of the Ministry of Rites.

"Chen Mingxia, oh. I understood, he had come to ask for the paper, and to take it out. "

"Do you want to give it to him, wait, let's see what the letter says first. Wang Yan used his fingernails to open the letter, spread out the letter paper and read silently: "I heard that Wang Pu Xiaoyou is good at mathematics, I can't help but be happy, the way of learning is classless, and the weak crown can also be a teacher. Between the weak crown and the high position, it is necessary to know that Mu Xiu will destroy it in the forest wind, but the former residence is not arrogant, not doubled, the country has the way to prosper, the country has no way to tolerate its tacit enough, this ancient man taught sincerity not to deceive, fight the scene, never approach, Rong Yi respectful, and people do not fight, my heart is right, then the heart of heaven and earth is also right, my qi is smooth, then the qi of heaven and earth is also smooth. Therefore it works. The ultimate merit of this learning and the ability of a saint. "

"Good article, good word, this person is learned. Wang Yan said.

"Say something, don't read it to me, just say it. "

"Well, the first half of the letter is to worship you as a teacher, begging you to teach him mathematics, and the second half is to advise you to be cautious in your words and deeds, and not to fight with others. "

Wang Pu was very surprised, this person is obviously a high-ranking official of the Ministry of Rites but is interested in mathematics, it should be an amateur hobby, such a person should go to the Ministry of Industry, it can be seen that the Ming Dynasty can not know people well, and the use of talents is very inappropriate.

"Who is it?".

"Xu Guangqi, words first. "

"Ahh "

Chen Mingxia finally got his wish to get rid of Wang Pu's clutches, and after destroying the fatal piece of paper, he stayed in the Qin Mansion on the grounds of repaying his kindness, and gave some poems to the juniors of the Qin family.

Wei really felt sorry for his daughter, and because her daughter's unjustified disaster was really caused by her, she was deeply remorseful, Chen Mingxia's poems became Qin Jinling's life necessities like a life-saving straw, and under Wei's repeated pleas, Chen Mingxia promised to write a poem or word to Qin Jinling every day. Occasionally, Qin Jinling would give back poems, and two young men and women who had never met used poetry as a medium to complain to each other. Qin Kunan really likes Chen Juren, up and down, left and right like a virtuous son-in-law in his own mind, as long as the two of them are not alone, it is not in the way, because of the rumor incident, he has greatly strengthened the number of caretakers in the back garden, and it should be safe.

Just when Chen Mingxia and Qin Jinling were inside and outside the wall, and they were getting better, time was like an arrow, two months passed in a flash, Wang Pu was finally able to get out of bed, there was no light for a long time, and his whole body was snow-white and shiny.

With the assistance of Wang Yan, the Shenjia Battalion has been prepared, and 500 soldiers have been recruited one after another, most of whom are disaster victims and deserters. Together with the two hundred soldiers who could fight at the guard post and one hundred and fifty of his own soldiers, the total number was eight hundred and fifty. The military salary of the imperial court is not in arrears, but due to force majeure, the Shenjia battalion with a quota of 2,000 soldiers can actually only raise 1,400 soldiers, Wang Pu originally wanted to use all firearms, 1,000 musketeers, 100 artillerymen, 200 cavalry, and keep 50 personal soldiers for himself. However, in actual operation, it was found that the training process of musketeers was almost a gold-swallowing monster, not to mention that the logistics supply was a huge expense when going out in the future, unlike the cold weapons army, the swords and guns were rusty, and they could be used after grinding, but they only consumed food and horse grass, and the firearms-based army had to consume a lot of gunpowder, flint, and lead bullets in peacetime and wartime, as well as the grease and wax paper needed to make fixed charges in order to increase the rate of fire, and the craftsmen needed to make these materials, all of which cost silver. After repeated calculations by him and Wang Yan, they could only raise 300 musketeers, leaving 300 heavy infantry, 100 cavalry, 100 artillery and 50 personal soldiers.

Usually the heavy infantry also needs to be equipped with a supplementary soldier, but Wang Pu decided to cut corners in order to save money, and gave each infantry a wheelbarrow, a total of 600 wheelbarrows, 300 musketeers and heavy infantry each, and could carry baggage, especially heavy iron armor and Mo knives when marching. Of course, there is a price to pay for saving money, and without replenishment, the heavy infantry can only help each other to put on armor, and the time to put on armor is greatly extended, and once they are ambushed during the march or encounter a night attack, they will be very embarrassed. The wheelbarrow uses a large amount of solid wood, and entrusts the carpenters of the surrounding states and counties to make it, and the transportation of timber and finished products and labor costs almost spend all the money in the inventory, and the effect of saving money cannot be seen in the short term.

The wind blows the eggshells, the wealth is scattered, and the people are happy, this army is piled up with silver, and the army that Wang Pu has built with all his strength can be called gorgeous, and it is unknown whether it can fight. Wang Pu also emulated the People's Liberation Army of later generations, supervising the army to the team, each hundred team with a supervising army, but the imperial court is stricter on the recruitment of soldiers, will send down a supervising army, so Wang Pu himself privately appointed fake supervising army can only change the title, secretary, this is an official position that the imperial court does not have, so these nine secretaries do not lead the military salary, nominally Wang Pu hired staff, the secretary is the former broken settlement Liu Yishan, he learned to read and write simplified Chinese characters with amazing perseverance, the first in the examination subject, so that Wang Pushen is important, all the secretaries have learned to read and write simplified Chinese characters, usually help soldiers write letters, pay salaries, punish violators, and have the role of staff officers in wartime, holding real powerIn order to protect these valuable talents on the battlefield, Wang Pu also gave each of them two personal soldiers. Wang Pu didn't like the original hundred and thousand households, these hereditary officials were dull, not enterprising, embarrassed, only Gao Li was appointed as the captain of the military law, and concurrently served as the Yanmen guard hundred households. According to the "Regulations on Military Law (for Trial Implementation)" written by Wang Pu himself, the secretary can only punish small soldiers in accordance with the regulations, and the secretary only has the right to impeach if a general above the commander of a sentry violates military law. The secretary has the right to detain generals above the head of the sentry and below the general level, but the general officers above the rank of 1,000 can only be impeached.

On May 5th, Taiyuan City suddenly boiled, it was said that there was an official army outside the city passing by, and gradually the rumors went out of shape, saying that the emperor sent the Shenji Battalion to Pinglu County to suppress thieves, the people of Taiyuan City have been peaceful for a long time, they have never seen the famous Shenji Battalion, they usually listen to a lot of books, and the people who awaken their curiosity flocked to the city wall, but they ate a closed door, Taiyuan General Gong Wenda actually closed the city gate, and suddenly the crowd was excited, regardless of the soldiers' obstruction and rushed to the city wall, and finally lay on the battlements and saw a snow-white small snake from afar along the Fenshui to the south。
