I am the carpenter king

Chapter 594 Fang Congzhe's Choice

Looking up and down at Shen Quan, Wei Guogong nodded slowly, but still felt a little shocked in his heart.Although he had heard that Sun Chuanting was a man and his soldiers were elite soldiers, Wei Guogong was not too convinced.

However, seeing Shen Quan at this moment, Wei Guogong was still quite shocked. This calmness and calmness could not be found in his commanders.His eyes are bright, and he has a strong killing spirit on his body. He looks like a titan at first glance.Looking at the five hundred soldiers behind him, they stood there neatly, motionless, full of energy.

"Commander Shen, what do you have to say! If you can help, my country's father will definitely help." Wei Guogong looked at Shen Quan with a smile, and a flash of loneliness flashed in his heart, and there was a faint feeling in his heart.

Ever since Emperor Tianqi ascended the throne, he has attached great importance to military power, which is well known throughout the court.Now that Nanjing is also going to reform the military system, the overall combat power of the soldiers will definitely improve a lot. Originally, Duke Wei was very happy in his heart, but he had a faint feeling of something bad.

"Grandpa returning home, the general came to arrest people according to the imperial decree of the emperor. I don't know where the governor Luo of Jinyiwei is now?" Shen Quan actually didn't have much interest in talking to Wei Guogong. Finding Luo Sigong, with the cooperation of Jin Yiwei, it is no problem to arrest him.As for Wei Guogong, in Shen Quan's view, this is a person who will be reduced.

Throughout the Ming Dynasty, whether it was a civil servant or a general, it was all done for a lifetime.Only Wei Guogong was integrated from generation to generation, and the title is nothing, the key is military power.Although he was a commanding envoy, Shen Quan felt that after this incident, Emperor Tianqi would never put the general power in Wei Guogong's hands.

Seeing that Shen Quan didn't want to talk to him, Wei Guogong felt a little angry, but he still said calmly: "Dudu Luo is here, isn't it there?" Pointing at Luo Sigong who was walking over.Wei Guogong had a smile on his face.

Shen Quan hurriedly turned his head, saw Luo Sigong walking over, and after announcing the crime to Wei Guo, he strode thinking about Luo Sigong walking over.Coming to Luo Sigong's side, Shen Quan respectfully saluted and said, "Shen Quan is a lowly post. See Luo Dudu!"

Looking at Shen Quan in front of him, Luo Sigong was taken aback, who is this person?It seems a little familiar, as if I have seen it somewhere, but I still don't remember it.Seeing that he was dressed as a third-rank military officer, he was still quite different from himself, he frowned and said: "General Shen, please, I don't know why the general is looking for this governor?"

Luo Sigong is not in the mood and Shen Quan is not in the mood now, he just received a message.Emperor Apocalypse has arrived, and is now walking towards Nanjing City, and will arrive soon.I came here also to find Wei Guogong and go to pick him up together, so I can say that I was very nervous.

This time when I came to Nanjing, not only did my errands fail, but Zhou Jiamo died, so I can say that I suffered a crushing defeat.Luo Sigong himself is too embarrassed to say the credit for suppressing the rebellion.If it wasn't my own negligence, how could these things happen later?

Shen Quan naturally sensed Luo Sigong's attitude towards him.He didn't take it seriously, and said calmly, "Captain Luo, the general came here at the emperor's will. He came to Nanjing to arrest a few people. Before the general left, the emperor had an explanation, please Lord Luo help!"

Luo Sigong was slightly taken aback.Shen Quan's words were very blunt, but Luo Sigong thought it was normal.After all, he was repeating the words of Emperor Tianqi, if he was too polite, he would not be able to bear it.Since it was the will of Emperor Tianqi, Luo Sigong naturally did not dare to neglect it.After thinking for a while, he said, "General Shen, the emperor has already arrived outside the city of Nanjing. Shall we meet him first and then arrest the criminal?"

Luo Sigong didn't need to think about who Shen Quan wanted to arrest, he had already sent someone to arrest him.This arrest is also a credit, he doesn't want to throw it away.Shen Quan is now the king of Kouxian, and Luo Sigong is also very polite when speaking.

The emperor came, Shen Quan didn't expect Emperor Tianqi to come so fast, but he shook his head and said: "Lord Luo, the emperor's order to the last general is to arrest people, and nothing should be delayed. After the last general catches people, he will also I will give orders to His Majesty."

Taking a deep look at Shen Quan, Luo Sigong nodded, waved to Dang Han behind him, and said, "General Shen, the governor is going to pick him up, and let Dang Tongzhi take you with him for arresting people." The governor did not hide from General Shen, the rebel Jin Yiwei has already started arresting, maybe the same group of people as General Shen is going to arrest!" After speaking, Luo Sigong left with a mocking smile on his lips.

Shen Quan looked at Luo Sigong who was going away, and slowly shook his head, a thought suddenly flashed in his heart, this Luo Dudu might not be able to do it for long.Shaking his head, driving this thought out of his mind, Shen Quan walked towards Dang Han with a smile.

For Shen Quan's thoughts, Luo Sigong was not interested at all, he was thinking about Emperor Tianqi in his heart.Walking to Wei Guogong's side, he glanced at Chen Ling, and said with a smile, "So it's Eunuch Chen. I haven't seen you for many years. Eunuch Chen is still handsome!"

"Lord Luo, please don't make fun of our family. It's just the end of life. When you grow old, when you will be perfect." Chen Ling smiled and waved his hands. Naturally, he was no stranger to Luo Sigong, and he was less considerate when he spoke.

Wei Guogong on the side frowned, with a bit of helplessness on his face, and said with a smile: "Dudu Luo, isn't your business over there already? Why do you have the time to come here?"

Apologetically smiling at Chen Ling, Luo Sigong turned to Duke Wei with a serious face, and said in a deep voice, "Master Guo, the emperor has arrived and is coming here now, let's meet him!"

Wei Guogong was taken aback for a moment, the emperor is here?He was also a little apprehensive. He glanced at Chen Ling on one side, and said with a smile, "In that case, let's go pick him up. I wonder if Eunuch Chen can pass?"

He glanced blankly at Wei Guogong, the emperor is here, do you dare not go to pick him up?He waved the fly whisk in his hand, and said with a smile: "Wei Guogong is joking, the emperor is coming to Nanjing, how dare our family not pick him up?"

The three of them did not dare to delay any longer, and walked out together, preparing to meet Emperor Tianqi.

Fang Mansion is located near the noble imperial city in Nanjing, three streets away from Hongwumen in the outer imperial city.The entire house faces east and west, occupying most of the street.The Fang Mansion, which is full of traffic on weekdays, can be described as deserted at this time, the door is closed, and there is no one at the door.

In fact, the entire Fang Mansion has almost been evacuated, and the rest is just an empty shell.At this time Fang Shihong was kneeling outside the door of the ancestral hall, with tears all over his face, he said, "Father, go with your son! If you don't leave, it will be too late, and the arresters will come soon!"

crunch!The door of the ancestral hall was gently pushed open, and an old man came out with a cane in his hand.His hair is already gray, his beard is messy, and he looks a bit haggard. It is Fang Congzhe, a former scholar of the first minister of the cabinet.Looking at Fang Shihong who was kneeling on the ground, Fang Congzhe shook his body a few times and slowly closed his eyes.

Muddy tears flowed down from his shriveled eyes, and the crutch in his hand suddenly poked on the ground, saying: "I never thought that my Fang family would have such a day. The old man has been an official all his life, so he can't say that he is dedicated to the country and the country." People, you can be proud of your heart. I didn’t expect to be old and get the notoriety of a traitor. Fang Congzhe is ashamed of the emperor and the ancestors of the other party’s family!"

Fang Shihong looked at his old father, with anger flashing across his face, but more anxious.Glancing at Fang Fu beside him, he winked at him.In Fang Shihong's view, the old father should be kidnapped first, and the rest will be discussed later.

Taking out a small bottle with trembling hands, Fang Congzhe said with a smile: "Don't make any crooked ideas. Although I am old, I can't be manipulated by you if you want to. I, Fang Congzhe, cannot destroy your evil obstacle with my own hands. It is already heartbreaking. No end. Now I will definitely not go with you, this bottle contains Hedinghong, if you want to take me away by force, I will drink him now."

"Master, it's too late, let's go! If we wait any longer, we won't be able to leave!" Fang Fu looked at Fang Congzhe, then at Fang Shihong who was kneeling on the ground, and whispered in Fang Shihong's ear.

Fang Shihong looked at Fang Congzhe with red eyes, respectfully kowtowed to Fang Congzhe three times, a flash of determination flashed across his face, he turned and walked out.

Looking at Fang Shihong's leaving back, Fang Congzhe seemed to have exhausted all his strength, and fell limply.The crutch in his hand was thrown on the ground, and he leaned against the door frame.Tears kept dripping down, and he murmured to himself: "Ah, what a crime!"

"Master, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Now that things have happened, don't think about what you have. Maybe you will die tomorrow. The old slave made the master's favorite side dishes and asked the old slave to accompany the master for a few drinks. , just like before." An old man was holding a dinner plate with a jug of wine on it and two wine glasses.

Raising his head and looking at the old butler who had served him all his life, Fang Congzhe flashed a smile on his face and said, "At this time, why don't you leave? You will die if you stay here!"

"When the master saved me, I was just 26 years old. This year, the old slave is seventy-four, and it has been more than 40 years in a blink of an eye. The old slave should have died long ago. These 40 years have been picked up. Such a big Being old, death is not considered a small death, it is joy and mourning." The old man didn't care at all, and put the dinner plate on the ground, and there was no table.Picking up the flagon and getting two glasses of wine, I handed it to Fang Congzhe, and put the other glass in front of myself.

well!Sighing deeply, Fang Congzhe said helplessly: "At this moment, I really shouldn't think too much. Originally, I wanted to die, and this was the only thing I could do. But now I don't want to, I If I want to see the emperor, I will apologize to the emperor, no matter what, I will bear this crime!" (To be continued..)
