Chapter 201 Qi Shuai Jiguang (Part [-])
As expected, all the generals looked at each other, and they were all surprised. A seven or eight-year-old child wrote to us Qi Shuai?

But Qi Jiguang continued: "There is one more thing, I don't know if you know: Gao Ge has no son, and his nephew was brought to the capital when he recovered."

At this moment, all the generals looked suddenly enlightened, and one of them said quickly, "Then I must have read it as a son... Commander, I think that the letter from Mr. Gao may not be his own intention." , but what Elder Gao Ge meant, right?"

Everyone also had an expression of "I think so too", and their eyes were all on Qi Jiguang's face, waiting for his next words.

Unexpectedly, Qi Jiguang showed a wry smile: "I know what you are thinking, but... I'm afraid not necessarily."

"Oh?"

"Why is that?"

"Why is the commander-in-chief so sure?"

Everyone raised doubts.

Qi Jiguang stretched out his hand, and the generals stopped talking immediately, then he frowned and said, "Because the matter he raised doesn't seem like something Elder Gao Ge would care about."

Seeing that the generals were still puzzled, Qi Jiguang explained: "Mr. Gao proposed in the letter that I hope that the commander-in-chief can do him a favor..."

All the generals first showed expressions of "it's true", but then they turned into doubts, obviously thinking of the age of this Mr. Gao—is there anything that needs Qi Shuai's help at this age?
Qi Jiguang himself also showed a wry smile: "This commander-in-chief will not play riddles with you anymore. Mr. Gao said in his letter that he was on a trip to the outskirts of Beijing before, and he was hit by a thief on the road, and he was able to save it after a narrow escape... Therefore, he plans to ask this commander-in-chief to help him. Train a group of servants to protect his safety."

Everyone was surprised, and one of the generals was a little dissatisfied: "What is the status of the commander, and the soldiers and horses he trains are the swords and shields of the country. Does this Mr. Gao think that the commander's training is just a child's play?"

Another person hesitated and said: "It doesn't matter what Mr. Gao thinks, the key is whether Mr. Gao Ge knew about this matter? If Mr. Gao Ge knew about it but didn't stop him, does that mean that Mr. Gao Ge didn't object to it? If the commander-in-chief refused If so, I'm afraid..."

Another person said: "So what if you refuse? Although Mr. Gao Ge is Mr. Ge, our commander-in-chief is also taken care of by Mr. Zhang Ge. Could it be that Mr. Gao Ge is embarrassing our commander because of such a trivial matter?"

"I'm afraid that Zhang Ge will always be in trouble." Wu Weizhong came out and explained: "Zhang Ge is always in charge of the military department, but who can not look at Gao Ge's old eyes from all the officials in the military department? He is also a heavenly official! One thing is, I heard that the elders Gao and Zhang have been colleagues for many years and have a very good relationship with each other, so why don't you think about it the other way..."

"Thinking about what?"

"In Zhang Ge's eyes, is it a big deal to help Mr. Gao train a few servants? If not, why would he compete with an old colleague of his cabinet minister for such a trivial matter? If this colleague It’s okay to be at odds with him all along, but he is someone who has a very close relationship with him, what choice will he make, do you even need to ask?”

At this time, Qi Jiguang nodded and said: "Wei Zhong's words are reasonable. Although Mr. Zhang Ge is important to me, it is because of his official business, not because of my close personal relationship with him. I am only a military general. In his eyes, it is impossible to be better than Gao Ge. Strong support in the old pavilion is important."

In fact, he only said half of what he said, because he knew that Zhang Ju had put in a lot of effort to bring Gao Gong back to the cabinet, and help him suppress Zhao Zhenji and evade Li Chunfang.Now that Li Chunfang and Zhao Zhenji are both present, it is impossible for Zhang Juzheng to have conflicts with Gao Gong because of his trivial matter.

In the end, he was just a military commander. For a civil official like Zhang Juzheng, it was fine to use him, but it was no big deal if he didn't use it. He didn't have to offend Gao Gong for it.What's more, Gao Gong's status in the court is not clear to these people under his command, how can he, Qi Jiguang, not know?

Hearing this, the general who was obviously a little bit upset before was a little discouraged: "Then the general really listens to such a mere yellow-mouthed kid? Biaoxia is really not convinced."

"Unconvinced?" Qi Jiguang chuckled and said, "There is nothing unconvinced."

The general was taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Why?"

Qi Jiguang said indifferently: "This Mr. Gao is right now, even if he doesn't rely on his uncle's face, I can only agree to ask me to do this."

Now not only the general was surprised, even Wu Weizhong was stunned, and asked: "Why did the commander make such a statement? If it wasn't for the sake of Mr. Gao Ge, how could he, an eight-year-old boy, be capable of being the commander-in-chief?"

"He deserves it, he deserves it." Qi Jiguang's eyes became darker, he glanced at the generals, and said: "The emperor has decided to let His Royal Highness the Prince go out to study in the cabinet, and has created a new position as the prince's companion, and to be the prince's companion." It is this Mr. Gao who is reading it. Right now he is a serious Imperial Academy prince accompanying a fake attendant to study for a bachelor."

The generals were shocked when they heard the words, Wu Weizhong opened his mouth wide, suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Could it be that this son is more powerful than Li Wenzheng, and he won the gold list at the age of eight?" It was only in the second year of Longqing, and I haven't heard of such a child prodigy entering the list, and the next gold list should be next year."

Qi Jiguang waved his hand and said: "He didn't enter the Imperial Academy because he was on the gold list, but he was registered in the Imperial Academy after the emperor specially arranged for the prince to accompany him to study. It is said that he was among the ministers and children with a copy of "Longwen Whip Shadow" Stand out... within a few days, this book is already expensive in Luoyang in the capital."

The generals were dumbfounded, Wu Weizhong frowned and said, "Commander, what does Nanjiang say?"

Nanjiang is Yang Wentong, and Nanjiang is his nickname.

Qi Jiguang said: "Nanjiang only said that the scholars in the capital had polarized evaluations of him. Some said he was a young genius, while others said he was just asking someone to catch him. But Nanjiang secretly asked a few friends in Jinyiwei for a few words, and they It is said that this Gao Shidu's words and deeds in the palace that day were really outstanding, not like a generation who is out of gold and jade and defeated among them."

At this point, all the generals were half-believing and did not dare to question again, only one general muttered: "If this is the case, Marshal, Biao Xia thinks it is a good thing to agree to his request."

Qi Jiguang's expression remained unchanged, and he asked calmly, "What's so good about it?"

The general said: "I am a prodigy in Ming Dynasty. There are very few Yi Yis. Since this child has been named a scholar at the age of eight, he has also become a close minister of the prince. In the future, as long as he is a high school scholar, his future will be limitless. In addition, He is the nephew of Mr. Gao Ge, so it should not be ignored...Even if it is not so far away, the commander should pay attention to the fact that he is with the prince every day."

Everyone understands the truth of this, and there is no need to explain it.

Qi Jiguang also nodded, thought for a while, and ordered: "In this case, the commander-in-chief agreed to this matter, Ye Bangrong, you make some preparations, and after a while, you will be in charge of training when Mr. Gao's people arrive. "

The general who spoke just now was Ye Bangrong in Qi Jiguang's mouth. He stood up in response, clasped his fists, and said, "Take the order."
