I am the carpenter king

Emperor Tianqi looked at the Song brothers, smiled softly, and said, "You two, the food and drink are ready, I would like to offer you a toast! It is a great honor to meet two talented people today, you are welcome! "As he spoke, he drank the wine in the glass, and the smile on his face deepened.

Song Yingxing and the two of them looked at each other, and after cupping their hands to thank Emperor Tianqi, they began to eat and drink.As the saying goes, being courteous in everything is either rape or robbery, they are still wary of Emperor Tianqi.

"Actually, I invited the two of you here. First, I want to get to know the two talented people. Second, I want to know what happened at the entrance of the official department just now. Why did the two quarrel with the mere small official? I don't know if the two can tell each other. ?" Emperor Tianqi put down the wine glass in his hand and said with a smile.

Song Yingxing's eldest brother, Song Yingsheng, was more flexible than his younger brother, and he had already figured out in his heart that the luxuriously dressed white gentleman opposite him must belong to some family.Although the small officials of the official department are not popular, they are after all the official officials in charge of the official hats of the world's officials. In the eyes of the other party, they are just mere small officials.

Since it was expected that the other party's status was either rich or noble, and looking for his brother was just out of curiosity, Song Yingsheng's psychology was not so cautious.As for whether the other party wanted to trouble the officials, Song Yingsheng couldn't control that much. He was angry with the officials, and it would be best if he could vent his anger.

Having made up his mind, Song Yingsheng first shook his head with a wry smile, drank the wine in the glass, thought for a while, and put on a show.

The Emperor Tianqi on the side was not in a hurry, and looked at Song Yingsheng with great interest. Song Yingxing's name was naturally impressive, but Emperor Tianqi didn't know Song Yingsheng.But at this time, seeing Song Yinglong acting like this, he was very interested. It seems that Song Yingsheng is also an interesting person.

As if feeling that it was almost done, Song Yingsheng said slowly: "It's a long story, we two brothers are Fengxin people, and we studied in the private school run by our uncle since childhood, and our uncle was a Jinshi in the third year of Longqing. .Our Song family can be regarded as a heirloom of poems and books in the local area. Officials from generation to generation."

Seeing Song Yingsheng's proud look, Emperor Tianqi quickly complimented him, but Emperor Tianqi was not interested in these things, nor was he interested in what happened in front of the official department.Emperor Tianqi was only interested in Song Yingxing, but contact still had to go through a process, so he had no choice but to listen to Song Yingsheng explain everything. [

It turns out that in the 43rd year of Wanli, Song Yingxing and his brother Yingsheng went to Nanchang, the provincial capital, to take part in the Yimao Branch Examination.Among more than 1 candidates, 29-year-old Song Yingxing was the No.3 candidate in the province.Song Yinglong ranked sixth.Among all the students in Fengxin, only their brothers were elected, so they were called "Second Song Dynasty in Fengxin".

The success of the provincial examination encouraged the Song brothers, and they went to the capital to take the Bingchen examination in the autumn of that year, but they lost their names in Sunshan.They decided to try again next time. In order to prepare for the test, Song Yingsheng, Song Yingxing and others went to the ancient Bailudong Academy in Jiujiang Prefecture, Jiangxi Province for advanced studies.The 47th year of Wanli (1619) was the year of Shenzong's last examination during his reign.Brother Song Yingxing joined the capital with other candidates from Jiangxi, but the two brothers still failed to pass.

However, the two brothers still gave up their hearts. In the second year of Tianqi's scientific examination, the two brothers came to the capital for reference again, but I don't know if it was God's tricks, and the two brothers lost their names again.Originally, the two brothers wanted to study abroad in the capital, and they would come again in the fifth year of Tianqi.

Just with the passage of time.The two brothers' enthusiasm for the imperial examination gradually faded, and as they got older, they suddenly wanted to do something in the local area.So the two brothers came to the Ministry of Officials and asked the Ministry of Officials to release them as officials.

However, although the two brothers are juren, this juren is really not enough in the official department, and he has not even seen the head of the official department.When the little official met for the first time, he was very enthusiastic, but he secretly expressed his desire to ask for bribes.When the two brothers were in Beijing for a long time, how could they have so much money to bribe small officials?When I came for the second time.The little official suddenly became sneering and sarcastic, and only then did the scene just now happen.

After drinking the wine in the glass in one gulp, Song Yingsheng sighed naively, his face was full of loneliness, and said: "Things have come to this point, our brothers can be regarded as serving the country, and we are going back to our hometown. Maybe we will go back to the imperial examination next time." Will come. A man still wants to make contributions and contribute to the country."

Emperor Tianqi frowned immediately. Although Emperor Tianqi was very happy to get Song Yingxing, he heard the experience of the two brothers.Immediately, anger appeared on his face.

"Two brothers, I am very happy to see you as old friends today. I still have some contacts in the capital. Why don't you two stay in Panheng for a few days in the capital and let my younger brother clear it up for you?" Emperor Tianqi would not let go It would be a pity if someone like Song Yingxing gave up when these two left.

Song Yingxing and Song Yingsheng looked at each other, their faces full of caution. If what happened just now can be described as curiosity, why is that now?You have to know that the two of you have nothing to do with this young son, and the first time they exchanged shallow words, what exactly does the other party want to do?

Emperor Tianqi also felt that he seemed to be too anxious. Although he knew that he had made the other party suspicious, there was no change on Emperor Tianqi's face.Although there was an indifferent smile on his face, his heart was constantly turning, how to take these two people away?

Looking around, I can't reveal my identity here, is it true that I want to take these two people back?

"Bai Xiandi, we two brothers appreciate your kindness, but we will not bother you if you don't get rewarded! Today, I am very grateful for the hospitality of my virtuous brother, so I will leave now!" Song Yingsheng made up his mind. My idea, no matter what the other party's intentions are, the contact with Emperor Tianqi is over.

As long as you go out from here, the two brothers will pack up and go home. There are many things in the capital, so it's better to go back.If you come again, it will be Tianqi's five-year trial, so it's better to leave now.

Glancing at Wang Chengen beside him, Emperor Tianqi gave him a look, and sat on the chair without moving.Smiling, he said to the two people: "Two people, today's matter is because the little brother was abrupt, but you really don't think about it?"

"Thank you for your merits, I can't sleep or eat in peace! Thank you for your hospitality, I'm leaving!" After speaking, Song Yingsheng stood up, turned and walked outside.Song Yingxing on the one side was naturally looking forward to his elder brother's lead. In fact, he also felt a little weird in his heart, so he walked out without delay. [

Sitting there without moving, Emperor Tianqi smiled and played with the wine glass in his hand, while Wang Chengen on the side understood it, and two people followed him with just one look.

Stand up gently.Emperor Tianqi put down the wine glass in his hand, and said: "No one comes out today, let's go back to the palace!"

"My lord, what about those two people?" Wang Chengen could tell that Emperor Tianqi valued those two people, just like Lu Xiangsheng and Wen Zhengmeng everywhere.

After pondering for a while, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "Send these two people to the firearms factory. There is a yard there, which is the yard where I store books."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Although Wang Chengen was shocked in his heart, he didn't dare to show the slightest expression on his face. He just kept thinking in his heart, what is the difference between these two people?How could Emperor Tianqi attach so much importance to it.Not many people can get in that place.

Emperor Tianqi didn't delay and took his people back to the palace, but the Song brothers were not so lucky.

The two walked quickly back to the inn where they lived, packed up their things and left. Those who followed them were veterans, so it was naturally impossible for the two to find out.Originally, the two brothers were still a little nervous, but it wasn't until they left Beijing.The two of them didn't find anything, so they breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother, what do you think is the identity of that young man? Why is he so interested in our brother?" Just now, he couldn't open his mouth when his brother spoke, but now there are only two brothers left, Song Yingxing asked quickly.

"No matter what the reason is, we two brothers had better hide away. There are many dignitaries and dignitaries in the capital. If we get involved in any disputes, we two brothers will die without knowing why."

The two of them walked forward quickly while talking, but soon they had no choice but to leave, because several sturdy men appeared in front of them.The two brothers turned around in a hurry, but they were still a few big men.

"You two, don't make things difficult for us. Let's go with us! Both of you are scholars, we don't want to be rough!" Among these big men, two people came out and bowed to them.Said calmly.

Looking at the two people who came out, Song Yingsheng's complexion suddenly became ugly. He knew these two people, and they were the guards beside the luxuriously dressed young master.

Song Yingsheng and his younger brother Song Yingxing looked at each other, with a look of regret on their faces, and their eyes were full of disappointment.However, he still said to the leader: "What is your son's identity? Why did you take our brothers away? If you don't make it clear, our brothers will not go anywhere unless you kill us!"

The two leaders looked at each other with surprise on their faces, but neither of them took Song Yingsheng's words to heart.It is impossible for two frail scholars to do anything in front of them.But they also knew that the emperor didn't want to punish the crime, otherwise he wouldn't let himself come.If you can not be rough, two people will never be rough.

In fact, Song Yingsheng didn't know what to do, he was just betting that these people would not dare to kill people, so he should suppress them first, and then think of a way.

"You two, our young master invites you to go. There is no malice. As for the identity of our young master, we as servants dare not mention it. If you have the opportunity, you can ask my young master in person. I would like to advise you, follow me Let me go! This is the end of the matter, don't you two want to know what it is?" With a gentle smile on his face, the leader slowly approached the two of them.

"Brother, why don't you go and have a look with them, as long as we don't do anything outrageous." Song Yingxing frowned slightly. He always felt that things were not so simple. His brother was worried about him in the capital, and there was nothing on him worth arresting. of.

Hearing what his younger brother said, Song Yingsheng also nodded, he knew that the other party would never compromise.Now the two brothers have no other choice but to leave with these people.

Song Yingsheng and Song Yingxing were taken into a carriage. There was no car on the carriage, and the surrounding area was closed. After the curtain was drawn down, they couldn't see anything.The man who drove the car didn't seem to be on guard against the two brothers, neither blindfolded nor tied them up, which made the two of them even more suspicious.

You must know that there is only one kind of person in the world who does not need to keep secrets, and that is the dead. Has it reached the point where there is no need to keep secrets from the two of us?

The Ouchi bodyguard who was driving the car didn't have the time to talk to the two brothers. This was something Emperor Tianqi told him. As for what these two people thought, it had nothing to do with him.As for the confidentiality, they didn't take it to heart at all, let's talk about it if they can come out after entering!

There was no delay along the way, the carriage pulled the two people to a place, but the carriage failed to go in directly, and the two people were also asked to get out of the carriage.

This is a huge complex of buildings with beautiful pavilions.There are fields all around, but they are all barren now.The most eye-catching thing is not these, but those who are scattered around here.

In the distance were all the officers and soldiers in Ming armor, and Song Yingxing and Song Yingsheng recognized the guards at the door at a glance.Flying Fish wears the Xiuchun Sword. Few people in the Ming Dynasty would not recognize this kind of attire, and it was the famous Jinyiwei.

Now the two brothers were completely dumbfounded.What is this place?Originally thought that he would be taken to a house, but he didn't expect it to be like this.The two brothers, who were originally lucky, now had a look of embarrassment, and their hearts were ashamed.If you want to escape here, unless your two brothers have grown wings, don't even think about it.

"Stop! Report your identity!" Jin Yiwei stood at the door with a dark face.He said to the three people who came over.Although the soldiers outside had checked it, they didn't dare to be careless at all.

The guard hurried over, the rest of the people stayed outside, and he was the only one who could come in.After showing his badge to Jin Yiwei, he lowered his voice and said, "I sent these two people here by the emperor's decree!"

The guard in Jinyi nodded and said nothing, not because he was frightened by the emperor's name.Instead, he had already been notified that two people would send them over today.Glancing at the guard, Jin Yiwei said in a deep voice, "You can go back and deal with business. We have received an order. Just hand them over to me!"

The guard nodded, turned his head and said to Song Yingxing and the two of them, "I'll send you two here, see you later!" After speaking, he strode outside.

"Follow me!" The Jin Yiwei still had an expression on his face, calling Song Yingxing and the two to go inside.Don't say more than one word.

Brother Song Yingxing was not prepared for what was going to happen next, they didn't know what was waiting for them.

Although it was a big deal for the Song Yingxing brothers, no one in the capital cared about it at all.These days in the capital are very joyous, with constant celebrations and victories.

In Zunhua in the northwest, since the large troops of the Ming army entered Zunhua.The whole Zunhua city was boiling.The news of the victory of the Ming army had already spread, and the morale of the frontier army was greatly shaken.

In fact, most of the current Nine Sides are useless, and seven out of ten are gone.The soldiers fled, and the officers did not report.They took the opportunity to embezzle the soldiers' fields, as well as the military pay and rewards issued by the court.In some places it was even more serious, and officers forced soldiers to leave their homes.

The reason why Emperor Apocalypse did not mobilize the frontier troops to fight was also his worry. Most of the frontier troops now are occupied by guest troops.Once the transfer involves too much, it will never be moved unless it is absolutely necessary.

After a day's rest, Sun Chuanting led the Ming army to attack again, but Jiannu had already escaped from the hinterland of Ming Dynasty.The army was stationed in Santunying and Zunhua, waiting for the emperor's decree.

The Ming army was full of joy and celebration, but the coalition army of Jiannu and Mongolian Tartars was in bleak condition.In this expedition, the Mongols lost about 2 people, and the Jiannu lost about [-] people.

During the last battle, Nurhachi vomited blood and fell off his horse, and did not wake up until a day later.However, his face was still very pale, and his body seemed to be seriously damaged.The last time Shenyang City was defeated, Nurhachi fell seriously ill, and this time he vomited blood and fell from the horse.

For the 63-year-old Nurhachi, such a blow is already very serious.He is no longer the ambitious old wolf who can make money and fight well, but has embarked on the fate that all wolf heads must go, he is old.

After the coalition forces of Dajin and Mongolia withdrew from the territory of the Ming Dynasty, they set up camp on the grassland a hundred miles away.It was calm on the surface, but there were several undercurrents surging in the barracks.

For the Mongols, they were intimidated by Hou Jin because he was strong enough.Now that Nurhachi is in danger, their hearts are ready to move.But there is a more serious problem in front of us. This time, we failed to plunder the supplies for the winter. How will we survive this cold winter?

Every day, several people were paying attention to Nurhachi's camp, including Nurhachi's sons, and the one with the most complicated mood was Dabeile Daishan.Once again, his heart was aroused to compete for the Khan position. After all, Huang Taiji was dead, and there seemed to be no one who could compete with him.

Originally Nurhachi's eldest son was Aixinjueluo Chuying, but after Chuying died, Daishan became the legitimate heir.Nurhachi also inspected Dabeile Daishan, and was very satisfied with his ability, and at the same time won the trust of all brothers.

Looking up at the roof, Nurhachi's thoughts kept turning in his mind, and the past scenes kept replaying in his mind.This was the first time he looked at his life with the eyes of a bystander, and he could only sigh helplessly in the end.

"Father Khan, there's a letter from Tieling, it's from Abai." It was Big Beile Daishan who walked in, holding a letter in his hand, and said. (To be continued.
