Chapter 122 Chill
Hou Ruliang in the cabin sat silently, while Hu Yingjia opposite was also silent, only occasionally turning his head to look at the dust on the shore, and the two armies were ready to go.
This scene was unacceptable to Hou Ruliang, but he couldn't come up with anything.
Although he was the governor of Zhejiang, he was in charge of the army and dismounted his horse to manage the people, he did not control the prestige of the army. Hou Ruliang may be the least authoritative of so many governors of Zhejiang... He was even worse than Ruan E, who was suppressed by Hu Zongxian back then, and Wu Baipeng, who was uh, he might be able to compete with Zhao Zhenji.
Of course, Hou Ruliang knew that the court would soon have a resolution, and in this situation, there was no need to intervene.
However, there is actually another main reason. While Hou Ruliang was considering the identity of Mr. Fang, he guessed how Qian Yuan would react after the report.
Indeed, Qian Yuan and Wang Zhi are alliances, and the two are interdependent. The former relies on the latter to consolidate the position of the court, while the latter relies on the former to trade and even be awarded titles.
But the two are not a life-and-death relationship...at least before Wang Zhi actually raised the flag of rebellion.
As Qian Yuan’s confidant, Zhang San, the guerrilla general, was willing to attack the Ningbo Prefecture Office and wanted to steal Mr. Fang... Hou Ruliang guessed that it was either because there were other secrets between Qian Yuan and Wang Zhi that he didn’t know, or because of this Mr. Fang.
But no matter which reason it was, Hou Ruliang knew that Qian Yuan was afraid of hating him to the core. Although the other party only served in the Zhan Shi Mansion and was a major magistrate in the world, Hou Ruliang did not think he was qualified to be his opponent.
Relatively speaking, Hu Yingjia on the opposite side saw more clearly, which was derived from his own identity.
In fact, some people in the court vaguely realized that Zhao Wenhua, who was the Minister of Works, had a secret connection with Qian Yuan. The reason was very simple. After Yan Song passed away, Yan Party was strongest, such as Yan Maoqing, Dong Fen, and Tang Ruji, were all liquidated. Among the number of big figures, only two were able to escape unscathed.
One was Ouyang Bijin, who was the Minister of Personnel at the time, but this person was not a direct descendant of Yan Dang, with outstanding political achievements and a good reputation. He was regarded as Yan Dang mainly because he was Yan Song's brother-in-law.
The other is Zhao Wenhua, the Minister of Works. He was the backbone of Yan Dang and the one with the highest official rank at that time. He was also Yan Song's adopted son, and it is said that he is a mother-son-like Mrs. Ouyang.
Why can Zhao Wenhua escape?
Xu Jie made an action, but was stopped. During this period, Sui Yuan appeared.
And why did Qian Yuan take action?
It’s not because of the friendship we met in Southeast back then, right?
Hu Yingjia pursed his lips tightly. He could put Zhao Wenhua in the strict party and gather me among the Xu Jie's followers... Wouldn't he install chess pieces next to Wang Zhi?
Hou Ruliang looked at Hu Yingjia in surprise and put down the curtains, covering the shore, shouting and scolding each other was almost over, and he was ready to take a knife.
"Slightly cool."
June is the hottest season in the southeast, and you feel cold... Hou Ruliang's eyes moved and he didn't continue asking.
Hu Yingjia forced a smile, and looked at Hou Ruliang with a hint of speculation and suspicion. He thought deep in his heart, how many chess pieces did that person bury everywhere?
Zhang San was so bold and arrogant... Hu Yingjia was sure that Mr. Fang must be Qian Zhancai's man.
It is said that Fang Dun was once the leader of Xu Hai. When Hu Zongxian and Qian Yuan cleared the Japanese siege in the southeast, their main opponent was Xu Hai, and their greatest military achievements were to defeat Xu Hai in the Battle of Shangyu.
Hu Yingjia remembered the night when Xu Jie thought he was sure to win last year, when Qian Yuan led his guards to the sky and turned the tables in one fell swoop.
Zhang Juzheng could hide it from Xu Jie, Gao Gong, and even Li Mo, and Emperor Longqing, but he could not hide it from Hu Yingjia... He knew that Zhang Juzheng could not tell Qian Yuan.
What does this mean?
This shows that Qian Yuan is likely to have installed chess pieces within Xu Jie's party members and even in the Xiyuan.
The hands cage in the sleeves clenched into fists, and Hu Yingjia clearly noticed the sweat oozing out of his palms. Zhan Cai, what can you do in such a situation? What else can you do?
On the north bank of the Yongjiang River, facing the personal soldiers sent by Dong Yikui, Yang Wen, who looked like ice, personally drew out a long knife and sneered and slashed it down.
"Brother Yang is good at sword skills!"
The Qian family guards, who were also from the Qian family, cheered loudly and cut off the hair of the soldiers there with one knife.
He kicked the soldier away with one kick, Yang Wengui was scabbard, and waved to the general manager, "Let the four teams be ready, pay attention to the flag."
"Don't worry, Brother Yang, just choose Lu Peng's team. I'm very familiar with him!"
Although Zhang San, who was facing each other with Dong Yikui and Lu Peng's army, saw this scene clearly with a telescope and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Yang Wen has been repeatedly favored by the young master, but he is not a ungrateful wolf like Lu Bin!"
When Zhang San and Yang Wen knew that Qian Yuan had arrived at Songjiang Prefecture, which was separated by a sea, they were confident enough.
Break the face?
Sorry, we are not afraid of breaking up!
"Zhancai is really a very fast soldier." Hou Jigao, who was standing beside him, smiled and said, "Zhang San, you are also hiding it!"
"Young Master secretly left Beijing, this matter must be kept secret." Zhang San chuckled, "Let's see how Wang Bengu ended this time!"
"The key is Taiping County, Tan Qizhi."
Faced with Qian Rui's sudden interruption, Zhang San nodded, "Mr. Fang said that the young master has already sent someone to Taiping County."
Hou Jigao did not continue to speak, picked up the telescope and looked at the opposite array. Seeing Dong Yiyuan waving the whip with a pale face, Yang Wen proved his determination by cutting off the buns of soldiers on the side. Even if he broke up and fought, he would never let Wang Bengu and Dong Yikui search for Zhang San's troops.
Putting down the telescope, Hou Jigao turned his head slightly and looked at the scholar beside him with his peeking eyes. He looked quite old, half-white, tall, dark-skinned, and unable to hear his accent. He was very standard official language.
Hou Jigao speculated that this person should be related to Qian Yuan, and Zhang San was very respectful to him and even a little close to him...
Seeing Hou Jigao's gaze, Qian Rui smiled and bowed, "I heard about the name of Huating Longquan for a long time..."
"I dare not, I dare not, when I mention Huating Longquan, no one in the world knows the name of Longquan Gong."
"The young master founded Qingpu Hall, which should be Qingpu Longquan... However, in the 31st year of Jiajing, Qingpu County was abolished and joined Huating. The young master mentioned that he wanted to split it again." Zhang San said with a smile: "When Xu Hai attacked Jiaxing, the young master was trapped in Chongde. Hou Longquan led his troops to the south to help. The young master said that the two dragon springs merged and they would be able to turn the tide..."
Hou Jigao gave in humility and tentatively said: "I heard that Mr. Fang is from Yingtianfu?"
Qian Rui nodded slightly and sighed in his heart. Although the Hou family is not famous in Huating, they are also a big family. I don’t know if they have ever met before...
