Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 90
The Minister of the Ministry of War is in charge of the world's military affairs, and the power is extremely heavy. Anyone who is not the emperor's heart cannot hold this position. Although the cabinet has the power to command all officials and assist the world, the Minister of the Ministry of War and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials can sit on an equal footing with the cabinet.

Wang Tong is not good at equestrian skills, he had to carefully stabilize his body and control his mount while galloping on the Jingshi Road, but he couldn't help thinking about it.

He and Tian Baihu rode not far away, and there were equestrian servants who had been waiting there a long time ago, leading the way forward.

At night in the capital, there were soldiers from the five city soldiers and horses looking for martial law in the city. Even nobles and officials who rode horses like this would be questioned.

However, servants on horseback kept meeting along the way. Occasionally, when they encountered the night duty team of Wucheng soldiers and horses, the servants running at the front would shout orders and show their credentials.

The patrol team of Wucheng soldiers and horses immediately stepped aside respectfully. Wang Tong looked at the servants on horseback. The movements of riding and shouting looked like servants who served others, which was completely the performance of elite cavalry.

Ever since the delicious restaurant met Emperor Wanli, Feng Bao, the eunuch who was in charge of the official seal, came to see it once, and then Zhang Juzheng, the chief assistant of the cabinet, came to see it once.

Ordinarily, if you want to have a relationship with Wang Tong, who has become the emperor's playmate, and if you are close to the condom, you should come to say hello around the Spring Festival.

Moreover, as Tan Lun's Minister of War, he belongs to those people in the court who can participate in the most confidential affairs. He should have known about Huwei Wuguan and himself, but why did he let himself go there until now.

That Tian Baihu said "Master Tan is dying", and let him pass when he was dying, it was even more puzzling.

At night, there are no pedestrians on the road, but there are a few brightly lit places along the road, where the singing, singing and swallow dancing, the horses run fast and don't care to see what's going on.

The road is clean, the cavalry has been running fast, and it didn't take much effort to reach the destination. There is a big lantern hanging in front of the Minister's Mansion of the Ministry of War, and some servants of the family are constantly looking back and forth at the door.

Seeing the cavalry approaching, someone shouted:
"Has anyone brought it?"

"People are coming!!"

After asking and answering, when they reached the door, the horses were reined in. The servants and Tian Baihu who were riding on the horses quickly turned over and got off the horses, but Wang Tong's movements were a little slower, and the servants who came with him urged "Hurry up" "Hurry up" a little impatiently. point".

They almost dragged Wang Tong towards the mansion, but Tian Baihu didn't follow, but politely said goodbye to these people:
"The person has already brought it, and I will go back first."

Wang Tong hurried all the way, and he could see that everyone in Tan Lun's house looked sad. After entering the inner hall, the servants who accompanied him bowed and retreated, and a burly man in his 40s stopped in front of him. The burly man looked at the appearance of a general, but he was wearing the clothes of a butler. When he saw Wang Tong, he clasped his fists in salute, stretched out his hand as a gesture of invitation, and then led in front.

"My master is not in good health after the Chinese New Year. He suddenly passed out while eating three days ago, and was unconscious for three whole days. Today, when it was getting dark, he suddenly woke up. He drank some porridge and felt better. He suddenly said that he wanted to see you. "

While speaking, he had already arrived at the door of the inner hall, and the housekeeper announced from the outside, and several women walked out of the door with their heads down and tears, and fled to the side room on the side.

When he was dying, Wang Tong was more and more confused about what he wanted to see him for, but now he can finally figure out that the other party did not have any malicious intentions.

After entering the bedroom, the housekeeper who led the way also stopped at the door. The aroma of traditional Chinese medicine in the inner hall was very strong, which made Wang Tong quite uncomfortable. The decoration of this bedroom is very simple. There are a few weapons hanging on the wall in the residence of civil servants. eccentric.

On the bed, an old man was wrapped in a quilt and sat leaning there. Seeing Wang Tong coming, he said with a smile:

"Wang Tong, please wait for a while, the old man will give orders first."

While speaking, he told the housekeeper standing at the door:
"Call Tan Bing and Tan Jian in, lest you have to lie by the window and in the corner to listen later..."

When the old man was talking, Wang Tong was also observing the old man's appearance. Tan Lun should be tall, but at this moment he looked quite thin. He smiled kindly, but it gave people a kind of pressure. This kind of pressure was different from what Wang Tong felt when he saw Feng Bao and Zhang Juzheng. Wang Tong couldn't figure it out.

Not long after, two ordinary-looking servants walked in with their heads bowed. The two men had tears on their faces. They hesitated for a moment when they entered the door, then knelt down on the ground, wailed loudly, kowtowed, and said in a crying voice:

"Master, master, this is really not..."

"Don't cry, the two of you are also on duty, there is nothing to explain. I called you two here to let you understand the records and report to the palace as soon as possible through Dongchang and Zhenfusi. What the official said, It is aboveboard, and there is nothing to hide from others, General Tan, it is convenient to write a few cases for the two of them."

Wang Tong bowed his head and remained silent, but he could understand this matter. Dongchang and Jin Yiwei had spies at the court minister's house.

"Wang Tong, you are very lucky. You are only 14 years old now, and you have already leaped through the Dragon Gate. There is no doubt that you will be successful in the future. I don't know how many scholars you will admire."

Wang Tong didn't know how to answer this question, so he had to lower his head even lower. Tan Lun smiled weakly and said slowly:

"I called you here, but I didn't mean that. I want to ask you something, Wang Tong, have you ever read military books?"

"The lower officer has not read it."

"That day, I saw that the training method in the martial arts hall is quite similar to Qi Zongbing's military training method. You are only fourteen this year, and your father is on duty every day, so you can't get in touch with it. How did you think of it? ?”

Wang Tong's head was lowered, but cold sweat gradually seeped out. It can't be said that this is the experience that he had been obsessed with in school in his previous life. He replied with a strong mind:
"Look at the ants under the tree. Their small bodies can carry things hundreds of times and thousands of times heavier than them. What they rely on is nothing more than the joint efforts of all people. It also reminds them of the battle. Thousands of people are fighting against the enemy. With the strength in one place, maybe we can win the battle with fewer enemies and more enemies..."

"...The ants under the tree... General Tan, did anyone say anything to Wang Tong when he came?"

"Reporting to the master, the people in our house don't talk too much."

"Hehe, at Wang Tong's age and background, you are too old to think too much, so just keep talking."

Could it be that there is something about the ants under the tree? Wang Tong was a little confused, but he continued:

"Standing in line and marching in unison is nothing more than getting people used to being a group, knowing how to advance and retreat with their companions. On the battlefield, tens of thousands of people are like one person. Respond quickly."

Speaking of this, Tan Lun suddenly coughed violently. Tan Bing, who was kneeling and recording over there, hurriedly stood up, picked up a bowl of medicine by the side, stroked Tan Lun's back, and fed a few with a spoon. After taking some medicine, Tan Lun stopped coughing, but he made up his mouth bitterly. After pushing it away, he said with a smile:

"Fortunately, you don't need to drink this bitter thing in the future, Tan Bing, go and remember it!!"

Tan Bing respectfully responded, and after turning around, the tears that had just stopped could not stop flowing down. Tan Jian, who was kneeling there, couldn't help but feel sad. Wang Tong looked up and found that Tan Lun's face was much better than before. Seeing this scene, Wang Tong's heart twitched, and he was no stranger to this state.

"The destiny is over, the old man should have returned to the light! Why are you crying? After decades of battles, have you seen fewer casualties? Tan died on the bed, and the fate is already deep. I don't cry, you cry What!!"

After scolding a few words, he asked calmly:

"Then why is this walking and running?"

"Back to Mr. Tan, walking and running are for the purpose of exercising the body, step by step, and then there are various movements, which are gradually strengthened, and at the end are the skills of martial arts. Practicing these is also to train the students to obey the instructions of the instructor. One last order, to be carried out without hesitation."

"When I was studying, I said that Su Hui was so-and-so, but I thought it was a lie. When I saw you today, I had to believe it."

Hearing Tan Lun's feeble evaluation, Wang Tong was sweating again. It was not a cold sweat of fear, but a face of shame. The above words indeed coincided with the art of war, but the way Wang Tong knew was from that life. What I learned in the training for newcomers and outreach training is that what you do at that time always has a meaning and an analysis of the truth. Even if it is useful or useless, you must speak clearly and clearly to make money.

Unexpectedly, these superficial and commonplace things were praised so much by Tan Lun, Minister of the Ministry of War. Wang Tong couldn't help feeling ashamed, but Tan Lun changed the subject and said leisurely:

"Li Chengliang, Qi Jiguang, and Yu Dayou are all famous generals in the world. Two are in the north and one is in the southeast. The Ida tribe is gradually declining, and the Japanese pirates are no longer infested. The world is going to be peaceful again... You can't just see the peace in front of you and do politics. People should be prepared for danger in times of peace, there are still tigers and wolves outside the frontier, and the dangers of the Japanese kingdom in the East China Sea still exist... Li Chengliang is too obsessed with wealth and pleasure, Qi and Yu are trapped in the court situation, and the actions of a few people stop here..."

The more Tan Lun said, the weaker he became. Tan Jiang from the outside walked in and was about to speak, but he stopped him with a wave of his hand, and said forcefully:

"Not to mention now, who is there in Ming Dynasty 20 years later? There is no one behind Qi and Yu. The children of Li Chengliang are nothing more than reckless men at best. Chen Lin from Guangdong Province is only a naval officer...Wang Tong, you are Daming's Famous General Seed, your martial arts gym is the martial arts of the Ming Dynasty, and the reason for the prosperity of the martial arts of the Ming Dynasty!!"

Wang Tong no longer bowed his head. He looked at Tan Lun, Minister of the Ministry of War on the sick bed. Wang Tong's body was not under his control, and he was trembling all the time.

Tan Bing and Tan Jian, who were recording there, also stopped writing and opened their mouths wide to look at Wang Tong over there. Just such a stronger kid, can he be worthy of this? ——
