Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

Hu Shun: "Excuses are easy to find. Anyway, I came to the frontier army this time to inspect the military affairs of Jinyiwei. It is not difficult to find any case and investigate it for a year or so. As for cultivating a team in the army that can be dispatched at critical times It is also easy to use power. I, Jin Yiwei, have sent people to oversee the army, and I have installed many eyes and ears in the army. It is easy to be greedy for money. To put it bluntly, the old man has gained a lot of benefits from coming to Shaanxi this time. Soldiers love money, and it's not a taint, everyone does."

Su Mu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. Tomorrow my son-in-law will return to Xi'an to preside over the rural examination. It will be October when the job is finished. As for the news of the imperial court's Qingzhang military settlement, it is estimated that it will come down in the next year. This year, we will only I'm afraid I won't be able to go home."

Su Mu is quite confident about Jin Yiwei's means, and Hu Shun should be able to build a useful backbone in a short period of time.

The key is to find some excuse to stay, and if you stay for half a year to a year, you must find a big case.

As for who Hu Shun is going to mess with, Su Mu doesn't care!

The frontier army, or the military system of the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that no one is clean.Besides, they have nothing to do with Su Mu.

"So urgent?" Hu Shun was a little surprised and couldn't help asking.

Su Mu smiled wryly: "Master Taishan, don't be in a hurry. September is the rural examination. The journey is difficult, and there is no guarantee that it will be delayed. If you miss the date, it will affect the provincial examination in Shaanxi Province. My Sumu Even if the official career is over."

Indeed, how important is the provincial examination.If the day comes, and the chief examiner is not there, it will be a shocking event.

To put it bluntly, at that time, if the scholars in a province are angered, the court will pursue it.Changing to Hong Wunian, beheading your head would be considered light.

Hu Shun knew how powerful it was, and nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, yes, I must go back to Xi'an quickly."

Afterwards, the two discussed how to contact each other, and after a few words, Hu Shun left.

After Jin Yiwei left, Zhao Hulu came to report, saying that the Anhua Palace had heard that the Elder had come to Ningxia, and that they would hold a banquet in the Palace tomorrow night, inviting the Elder to come over for a drink.

At the same time, several commanders at the front line of the Ningxia frontier army are also in the invitation ranks, and they all want to get acquainted with the current number one scholar.

Su Mu will leave Ningxia tomorrow, he planned to leave early in the morning, but now he heard that King Anhua came to invite him, accompanied by all the generals of the frontier army, his heart moved.

Judging from the current political situation, Liu Jin has made Ma Wensheng and Liu Daxia leave the political arena sadly, and the next step is the fierce confrontation between the cabinet and Jiuqing and him.

Next, Liu Jian and Xie Qian should resign.

Liu Jin reformed the military household system, clearing up military land should be on the agenda.

It is speculated that King Anhua will take this opportunity to launch a rebellion at the beginning of next year at the latest.

In fact, in real history, King Anhua rebelled against Zhengde for four years.

However, in that time and space, Emperor Zhengde ascended the throne more than a year later.

However, with the intrusion of the butterfly Su Mu, King Anhua's rebellion will be a year earlier.

Su Mu smiled in his heart, next year will be the fourth year of Zhengde, but it is not the real fourth year of Zhengde. It seems that the inertia of history is really powerful.

He was anxious to go back to Xi'an, but he thought about it.Tomorrow, all the people who will go to Anhua Prince's Mansion for a banquet will be prominent figures in Ningxia City, who have witnessed the Anhua Prince's Rebellion.

As the person who advised Hu Shun behind the scenes, Su Mu felt that it would be good to have a closer look at relevant people.There is a saying in the art of war, if you know yourself and the enemy, you will be victorious in every battle.

So he nodded, accepted the post from Anhua Prince's Mansion, and asked Zhao Hulu to go back, saying that he would arrive tomorrow night.

On the second day, there was a whole day, and Su Mu was not idle, so he took a tour of Ningxia city and outside the city with his entourage, observing the terrain nearby.

Not to mention, the scenery in Ningxia is really good, and it deserves to be called the top south of the Yangtze River.

It's a pity that there is not enough time, and there are several famous scenic spots in later generations that I can't go to.

In the evening, the Anhua Palace is decorated with lanterns and festoons, full of guests.

The King of Anhua has been feuding Ningxia for more than 100 years, and the palace covers a very large area, including a rich land like the Yinchuan Basin.After several generations of operation, it has become a scale.The palace is extremely luxurious, and there are many items and utensils, even Su Mu, a well-informed modern person, can't name them.

Looking at the guards in the palace, they are fierce and arrogant, and they are more majestic than the guards in the palace.

As a future upstart in the political arena, Su Mu naturally received a high-level reception from King Anhua.

King Anhua is in his early fifties this year, and he is a fat man.According to Su Mu's knowledge, the people in Lao Zhu's family seem to have obesity genes, and there are many fat people.This person seems to have been washed out by alcohol, his eyes are a little swollen, and his speech is weak.

Such a petty character also wanted to rebel and become the emperor, so it is not surprising that he failed.

Looking at his face, Su Mu felt that this person was not worthy of attention.

At the same time, Su Mu also met Sun Jingwen, the chief staff member of the palace, who directed the rebellion of King Anhua.

However, after talking to him for a few words, Su Mu felt that this person's talents were limited, that is, he was just a poor scholar with no ambitions.This person was very respectful when he saw Su Mu, and even intentionally or unintentionally asked Su Mu what kind of questions would be asked in this session of the Shaanxi Provincial Examination.

Su Mu sneered in his heart, and automatically ignored him in his heart. This person's background is also very limited, and he doesn't seem to be a big deal.

At the same time, Jiang Han, the general soldier of Ningxia, and Li Zeng, the eunuch guarding Ningxia, also attended the meeting.

These two people were later chopped down by others during King Anhua's rebellion. These two people were not related to Su Mu, so he naturally didn't have the kindness to remind them to beware of King Anhua.Even if Su Mu said it, these two people would probably only treat him as a psychopath.

Jiang Zongbing looks like a bureaucrat, very mediocre.As for Eunuch Li, it is said that he was an old man from the Hongzhi Dynasty, almost 60 years old.Eunuchs are in poor health, especially when they are old.Throughout the banquet, the man looked groggy and out of energy.

After observing carefully for a long time, Su Mu came to a conclusion: these two people are also mediocre.

In fact, all kinds of people attending the meeting seemed ordinary, such as Ningxia Commander Zhou Ang, Commander Ding Guang and a large number of middle and senior military officers.

In comparison, it was Qiu Yue, the protagonist who quelled the Anhua Rebellion in real history, that made Su Mu's eyes shine.

This man is tall and has long arms. When looking at people, there is a cold light in his eyes occasionally, which makes people shudder.Such a character, no need to ask, must have rolled over in a sea of ​​corpses and blood, and he naturally carried a murderous aura on him.

Su Mu smiled in his heart: No wonder King Anhua and the others fell in the hands of Qiu Yue in the end. From the perspective of spirit, the two sides are not at the same level at all. King Anhua and others are not worthy of being Qiu Yue's opponents at all.

Wait, I can chat with Qiu Yue.When the King of Anhua is in chaos next year, this person will be a force that can be relied on.

Indeed, according to historical records, this Qiu Yue was indeed extraordinary.

This person is outstanding in martial arts, and his surname is not Qiu.He used to be an ordinary military household in Gansu.After going to the front line, because of his bravery in combat, he changed from an ordinary soldier to a high-ranking general abruptly, and became the confidant of the commander of the capital of Ningxia.

Later, Qiu Li died because he had no heirs.Seeing that the opportunity came, Qiu Yue resorted to adoptive means to adopt his dead boss as his son, then took Qiu Li's official position, changed his surname to Qiu, and became the great-grandmother of the Ningxia military.

Abandoning the surname given by his parents, even his ancestors, he is simply a villain in the eyes of the world.

For the sake of fame and fortune, this person can afford to let go, but he is a powerful character.

Although Su Mu disapproved of Qiu Yue, he had to admit that he stood out from the crowd in the Ningxia Army.

After drinking with everyone for a long time, talking a lot, and gaining a direct understanding of the upper class figures in Ningxia City, Su Mu's heart gradually stabilized.

At the beginning, Su Mu was still a little worried about whether Hu Shun could put an end to the Anhua Rebellion.Today, there is no such worry.

This group of people looks like a rabble at all. If Hu Shun acts according to his instructions, it should not be difficult to put down the chaos.

It also takes skill to be rebellious. Look at King Ning, who is so heroic when he is single, he is two blocks away from King Anhua and others.It's ridiculous that people in this world don't have self-knowledge. After staying in a low place like Ningxia for a long time, they thought that their destiny was in them, and they thought that they were heroes like Chengzu, and finally lost their lives for nothing.

In his heart, he had a crush on Qiu Yue, and Su Mu felt that he should find a chance to get acquainted with Qiu Yue.

Coincidentally, the most guerrilla general in Ningxia, Qiu Yue was also one of several leaders in the military, and he happened to be sitting next to Su Mu.

So, Su Mu raised his cup to respect him: "I have heard about the name of General Qiu for a long time, but I have never had a chance to get to know him. I am very happy to meet you today."

But he didn't want to, Qiu Yue said: "Editor Su is a guest from afar, there is no reason for you to come to respect the general, it should be me to respect you. Come, change a big bowl."

With a loud shout, a soldier ran over quickly, put two large bowls in front of the two of them, and poured two bowls full.

"Come on, let's get together because of fate. If editor Su thinks highly of the old enemy, then I will do it." After finishing speaking, he drank it down.

Su Mu didn't doubt him, thought it was just a soldier's boldness, so he drank it all in one gulp.

"Okay, Editor Su is really bold, come again."

Another full bowl of wine.

In this way, the two of them drank three large bowls, only then did Su Mu feel that something was wrong.This is not a toast, it is clearly trying to get me drunk on purpose!

Although the alcohol content in the Ming Dynasty was not high and Su Mu was in good health, but after pouring three full bowls, his head still felt faintly heavy.

Moreover, so much wine will swallow the stomach, and it will be very supportive.

There is doubt in my heart, isn't this a trick, what exactly does this Qiu Yue want to do?
