serious man in the red chamber

Chapter 147 The Resentment of Yizhong County King
Huifang Garden

With a "whoosh", the arrow directly penetrated into the red heart of the target.

Fifty steps away, Jia Hu took another arrow from his quiver, put it on the string, drew the bow to the full, aimed at the target, and hit the red heart of the opposite target with a "swoosh".

When he was young, the position of the red heart on the archery target was filled with feathered arrows. Jia Hu bent his bow and set his arrow again, and shot the last arrow.

At this time, Lin San came over and took out a letter from his sleeve: "Commander, a letter from Wang Ziteng."

Jia Hu took the letter and tore it open to read, with a smile on the corner of his mouth. The emperor approved Wang Ziteng's memorial, agreed to his resignation from the infantry yamen, appointed him as the deputy commander of the Jiangnan camp, and went south to suppress bandits.

In Jiangnan Camp, Wang Ziteng must be crazy about it. This is a real elite team. It may not be as good as the Yongwei Battalion and Frontier Army, but it is enough to sweep all local armies.

Also, this must be the old emperor's idea.

Thinking of this, Jia Hu couldn't help shaking his head and smiling wryly. Is he so confident that Wang Ziteng will defeat the elite of the Jiangnan camp?

You know, Jiangnan Daying has [-] elites.

This is not looking down on Wang Ziteng, but insulting him.

Jia Hu pondered for a moment, then sighed helplessly, the old emperor still planned to attack Jiangnan.

At this moment, a soldier hurried in and said, "Commander, Yang Dayong is here."

Jia Hu: "Oh? Where is he now?"

Guard: "In the lobby."

Jia Hu folded the letter and wiped it into his sleeve, "Let's go to the lobby."

Dragon Head Palace

bedroom side hall
A senior eunuch on duty held a bowl of tea and offered it to the sitting Prince Yizhong.

King Yizhong took the tea bowl and asked, "What the hell did Manager Xia do? He hasn't come back for so long."

The eunuch: "Back to the county king, the slave doesn't know. How about the slave find it?"

King Yizhong thought for a while, then waved his hand: "Forget it, I'll wait."

"Yes." The eunuch bowed and retreated.

I don't know how long it took, Yizhong County King got a little impatient, stood up abruptly, and wanted to walk to the bedroom.

The eunuch stretched out his hand to stop him: "Your Majesty, where are you going?"

King Yizhong looked at him: "Go to the bedroom."

Although the eunuch was respectful but uncompromising, he said to the King of Yizhong: "Your Majesty, it's not that you are a slave. It's because your ancestors have told you that without him, no one can step into the palace."

King Yizhong's eyes flashed: "Get out of the way!"

The big eunuch: "Well, if you have something urgent, go back first, and when the old ancestor comes back, I will tell the old ancestor?"

After hearing his words, the Yizhong County King's face sank, and he wanted to get angry, but he held back and asked: "Is your manager Xia hiding from me? I have been here four or five times since the Chinese New Year. He Not here. Is it because he has been absent that I have not been able to see the imperial grandfather?"

The eunuch immediately replied, "I don't understand what you are talking about."

Seeing that a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, King Yizhong didn't want to say anything, turned around and walked out.

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps came from the main hall, Yizhong County King was stunned for a moment, then walked quickly to the door of the hall, and looked in through the gap in the door.

I saw Xia Shouzhong helping King Zhongshun come out of the palace. King Yizhong's face became even more gloomy. He clenched his fists, turned around and left quickly.

Ningguo Mansion

hall
"Marshal, we can't let them connect like this anymore!"

Yang Dayong was a little excited, and said to Jia Hu who was sitting in the chief seat: "Except for the old battalion, the officers of the other battalions are waiting and watching. If this continues, the morale of the army will be unstable!"

Jia Hu shook his head.

Yang Dayong opened his eyes wide: "Why?"

Jia Hu: "Because they are indeed from the palace."

As if a thunderbolt passed through the air, Yang Dayong stood up in shock.

Jia Hu went on to say: "They didn't reveal their identities before, so we can use military law. It's too late now."

Yang Dayong's eyes flashed brightly: "Pretend not to know, give them a fight first!"

A look of relief flashed across Jia Hu's eyes, then he sighed and said: "Although I am the chief general of the Yongwei Battalion, and I also have the Secretary of the Ministry of War, I have no right to kill the generals under my command. There are still so many people. Don't Forgot, there is also a eunuch Zhao in the camp."

After a pause, "Now the matter has exploded. If something happens to them, what will the other generals think of me, and what will the soldiers below think? People are like water!"

Yang Dayong: "Just let them go on like this?"

Jia Hu: "The battle in the south will become bigger and bigger. Experienced generals are needed. I will personally recommend them and give them a chance to be promoted and make a fortune."

Yang Dayong gritted his teeth: "Okay! Let these people who eat and drink be arrogant for a while."

Jia Hu: "You have been working hard. By the way, how are those craftsmen?"

Yang Dayong: "I have fully adapted to the life in the military camp, and I am arranging for them to take apprentices."

"That's good!"

Jia Hu thought for a while, "Don't treat them badly in life, and don't be too harsh. You can give them more time to rest."

Yang Dayong: "Yes."

At this time, Lin San's voice came from outside the door: "Commander, hurry up."

Jia Hu raised his head: "Come in."

Lin San opened the door and came in, walked up to Jia Hu, took out a letter from his pocket and presented it.

Jia Hu took the letter and tore it open to read it, then smiled lightly. The letter from King Yizhong said two things. One was that he suspected that the Supreme Emperor had already woken up; The letter stated that Shui Rong had gone to Shandong and was probably hiding near Qufu.

The meaning behind the words was to ask Jia Hu to reveal the matter, and let the court send people to search in Qufu, with an attitude of wanting to make things big.

Moreover, the King of Yizhong seems to wish that this matter has something to do with the Kong family.

Jia Hu also felt a bit of resentment from it, the King of Yizhong County wanted the court to be in chaos!

What a stimulus this is!
Qufu?

It seems that Jiao Da's information is not wrong, but why does it involve the Kong family?
As long as he is attached to the Kong family, even the smallest things become big things.

This Yizhong County King is not a fuel-efficient lamp, he actually wants to use himself as a gunman, let himself bear the blame, and bear the anger of scholars all over the world.

Thinking of this, Jia Hu stood up and said to Yang Dayong, "Go back first."

"No!" Yang Dayong saluted, turned around and strode out.

Jia Hu asked Lin San again: "How long has it been since Mr. Jiao came back?"

Lin San: "Back to Commander, count today as thirteen days."

Jia Hu frowned: "It's been so long!"

Lin San went on to say: "He should still be in Tongzhou."

Jia Hu nodded, and Jiao Da received the news that Zhen Fu had sneaked back to Tongzhou again, so he took people there himself, but he didn't know if he got anything.

After such a long period of surveillance, Jia Hu probably guessed who Zhen Fu was in contact with, either the White Lotus Sect or the Manchu Tartars.

This kid is really brave, and he is not afraid of losing the entire Zhen family.
