I [Imperial] Am Not This Kind of Man

On the Jinwen Street in the east of Beijing, shops are gathering, the weather is gradually warming up, and business here is gradually getting lively.

Especially the shops selling pen and ink classics, because the spring festival is near, and the business is booming, even the shops with calligraphy and painting classics are also very lively. Every day we can see that a group of scholars can go in and out.

According to the rules, the second year after the new emperor's ascension, there must be an encore. In the past two years, the thrones have changed frequently, and the imperial examinations are more intensive than in previous years. For scholars, it is a great opportunity for the sky.

In the bustling atmosphere, only the storefront at the northern end of Jinwen Street was slightly neglected. Here are all shops of antique gold jade, this kind of shop, business has never been a high season and low season, what is particular about three years without opening and eating for three years.

In front of an antique shop called Xingluo Lou, shop buddies and shopkeepers were at the shop door, moved their chairs and basked in the sun, carrying book shops in the distance and talking freely.

There was a chat without a ride, and suddenly a middle-aged man walked quickly towards this side.

Men's clothes are ordinary, but with a coarse texture and two patches, the appearance is even more mediocre. The shopkeeper just glanced and knew that he could not be a customer of his own shop. But the man bowed his head and folded his hands in front of his chest. There seemed to be bulging, and along the way, although he tried hard to calm down, he inadvertently looked around and showed a hint of tension.

I'm here to sell things! And this picture looks like a thief. I don't know if I stole the dowry of my wife at home or stolen the stolen goods of others?

The treasurer of the treasurer has been soaked for decades, and has already cultivated a pair of golden eyes.

Before the man approached, he figured out most of his details.

He glanced at him, and the shop buddy next to him immediately appreciated and greeted him.

Not long afterwards, in the store of Xingluo House, the middle-aged man in gray clothes shivered and felt two pieces of glittering things from his arms.

The treasurer took it over and looked at it carefully. The tentacles are cold and shiny, and the texture seems to be two pieces of glazed glass, but it is rare to see such a transparent one, a turquoise green, like a beautiful jade, and a sea blue, just like a gem.

The glazed products are not rare at the moment, but they are so pure that they can clearly see the figure behind them, and their color is evenly bright, which is indeed rare.

The middle-aged man whispered, "This is something that is made in-house, which is definitely rare on the market. You always give a price."

Built? The shopkeeper flipped twice and did not see the built-in sign, but fortunately there is no sign, otherwise it is not easy to shoot. If the trace is erased, the integrity of the whole piece will be destroyed, and the value will be greatly reduced.

After appraisal, the shopkeeper inadvertently asked, "Do you still have it?"

"There are only two of them, there are no more." Said the middle-aged man.

In the end, the shopkeeper held out a hand: "Twenty-two."

After some bargaining, the two sides finally traded for 27 silver.

The middle-aged man suppressed the ecstasy, cleared the silver points, shoved them into his arms, and quickly slipped away.

The shop buddy couldn't help asking: "The shopkeeper, I'm afraid that this thing hasn't been so innocent ..." They are Beijing's time-honored brands, and general things are unwilling to be accepted.

The shopkeeper smiled. "It's not something innocent at first glance, but before Guangling Hou celebrated Mrs. Tai, the bonsai of Baishou peach that we customized in our house was lacking brightly colored things to decorate flower pots. Is n’t this setting appropriate? ”

The shop buddy thought about it, the bonsai was a hundred pieces of red jade carved shoutao, lined with green leaves, and this was inlaid underneath, which was not appropriate.

That's the number one big business in the store this year. It must be done decently, and the thing is cut, and you can't see the calendar. Immediately flattered: "The shopkeeper is wise."

*********

Qianyuan Hall.

Qin Nuo scattered the dynasty and summoned several courtiers routinely in the Qianyuan Hall.

The person in front of him is Zhan Ziping, the current commander of Pidongying. He is a resolute middle-aged man who was originally one of the deputy commanders. He is a rare bottom-level originator of this class of generals, not an honorable family member. Born and died in northern Xinjiang in the early years, he made a lot of contributions, climbing from an ordinary elementary school all the way to being a middle-ranking officer. He was watched by the Guo family and promoted to Pidongying. Although the Guo family was quite attracted to him, it was not irrelevant.

On the night of Qin Jian's rebellion, it was in time that he set aside any disorder, restrained his subordinates from participating in the rebellion, and went to the prime minister's office to report.

This move finally saved the lives of some people in Pidongying, so that the entire Pidongying would not disappear completely, but the internal cleaning was inevitable.

Because of his whistleblower, he temporarily assumed the position of deputy leader as deputy leader.

This promotion is actually quite sinister. The majority of Pidongying is the Guo family ’s dead party. This guy became an informer. Although the starting point was to be good for Pidongying, such things as whistleblower are definitely a despised job, especially among the warrior groups who worship iron loyalty .

This promotion of Queen Mother Huo has not further weakened Pidongying's plan to remove it. However, Qin Cong suddenly became seriously ill, and he did not care about these methods, so he did not follow up.

However, it was unexpected that although it was only a temporary commanding position, Zhan Ziping did a good job. There are very few objections in the camp, which shows its daily prestige.

Qin Nuo has seen relevant information. He put the rest of his colleagues in place, and he tried his best to rescue the colleagues who were unfortunately implicated in cleaning, even if they had a problem in the past. In the past two years, the running army has eaten up behind closed doors.

The humiliation of Dai Deyao in front of the camp of the soldiers was a common occurrence for him.

Moreover, most of his own puppets and possessions were used to support his colleague's family members who were involved in the death. There is still a rented house. For this reason, the DPRK and China talked a little about him, and even if they turned back in time, they were still arrogant with the chaos.

After Qin Nuo succeeded, he was officially promoted to the position of commander, and ordered to recruit new soldiers and expand the camp.

It was Qin Nuo's first step in the army to reorganize Dongying and use it for his own purposes.

Although the bureaucrats objected to his promotion of Dongying, he did not object too much after Huo Donglai took the lead in changing direction. After all, it has been more than two years since Qin Jian's rebellion, and now several cleanups in Pidongying, the Guo family's forces have long been wiped out.

Qin Nuo took over at this time, and then imposed grace.

Zhan Ziping congratulates and whispers a report on the recent expansion of Dongying. Qin Nuo listened, very satisfied.

"These days, two soldiers and horses originally deployed to the Northern and Southern Army will be withdrawn to Beijing."

Zhan Ziping shuddered, fell to his knees, and said sincerely: "Emperor's grace, there is nothing to be reported for Pit Dongying."

Most of the soldiers assigned to the Beidong and Beidong camps in the Beidong camp were filled into places such as the trapped camp, and were called by the death squads. Being able to be recalled today is undoubtedly a waste of life.

The soldiers dispatched in the past two years have been killed a lot, but to put it another way, after more than two years of life and death, the battlefield has not been killed. Almost all of them are the elite, which is what Qin Nuo needs now.

He hopes to restore Pidongying to an organization of about 60,000 this year, which is the most elite force he can hold in his hands.

After a few more words, Qin Nuo ordered him to step down.

Zhan Ziping came out of the hall. The sun outside the hall was extremely bright, and his calm and resolute face softened a little.

After so long in the cold winter, now there is finally a glimmer of light, how can people not be pleased?

Although the emperor was young, he had the image of a master. Up and down Pidongying, finally got back to the right path.

"Is General Zhan in a good mood today?"

A clear greeting sounded from the side. Zhan Ziping calmed down and turned his head, he bowed slightly, "General Cui, see you for a long time."

The other responded with a bow, and laughed, "It's been a long time."

"I heard that Pidongying has been expanding enrollment recently, and I have heard news in the south."

"Morning grace, regrouping." Zhan Zi said flatly.

What else did Cui Wei want to say? Xu Min came out in a hurry and smiled, "General Cui, the emperor summoned."

Cui Yan then Shi Shiran entered the Qianyuan Hall.

A young man with a long body stepped in from outside the hall, and Qin Nuo only felt bright.

Although it wasn't the first time I saw Cui Yun, I couldn't help but admire it.

He suddenly understood a little, why Qin Cong would have a gossip about the sleeves with the people before him.

Cui Weisheng was too outrageous. Qingxiujunya was like a snowy plum, and a pair of stars were slightly melancholic, but Gu Pan was naturally a kind of romantic borrowing. The dark red uniform of Pingxiying was worn on his body, which made his waist soft and graceful.

Cui Wei is the leader of the Pingxi Camp today. Among the five leaders of the Five Guards, the youngest one, the 21-year-old General Sanpin, is not unprecedented in the history of Da Zhou, and it is definitely rare.

Most of this achievement can be attributed to his background. Cui Wei's mother is the longest princess of Xining, and Jing Yaodi's only sister from the same mother, so in terms of pedigree, Cui Wei is Qin Nuo's cousin.

His father is Cui Jing, a Swiss father. The Cui family is also hereditary. It ’s just that compared to the same level of gate valves, the children are thinner, and have passed for several generations. Cui Jing himself was a well-known beautiful man in Beijing at that time. At first glance, the princess Xining, when she was a horse, the couple had a good relationship. It is a pity that Cui Jing died during the mission to Nan Chen. Xining long princess heard bad news, but pity she was pregnant with Rokko at that time. Before he died, he entrusted the emperor to take good care of his only son.

Emperor Jing Yao had always felt sorry for this younger sister, and immediately brought her four-year-old nephew into the palace and raised him under the queen's knees.

So Cui Wei grew up in a palace from an early age, and is no different from the prince.

He even said politely that, before the decent King Emperor Jing Yao, this nephew, Cui Wei, was a hundred times stronger than Qin Nuo's unlovable prince. Even Qin Xun couldn't compare them, maybe only Qin Ze, who was so favored, could barely compare it to one or two.

He has been with Qin Cong since he was a child. The two were playmates in childhood, and then read after enlightenment. Queen Mother Huo was also very fond of the child raised by one hand.

With this background, when he was an adult, he entered the military and went through training, and soon went straight up. Emperor Jing Yao loved him so much that he was promoted to lead the post in Pingxiying within a few years.

Even if Emperor Jing Yao was afraid that Cui Yi could not perform at Pingxiying, he specially assigned the waterway clearance authority of the two ports that originally belonged to the eastern part of Nanchen to Pingxiying.

Although the two ports are not the top places for commerce and trade, they are also located on transportation hubs. Relying on the water checkpoint cargo, Pingxiying earns gold every day, and every young person easily earns hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Therefore, while these fellows in the Shenze camp were still earning extra money by opening a battlefield, the Pingxi camp was already full, and they did not worry about equipping such things for military expenses at all.

Although the background is hard and the promotion is fast, after all, Cui Ye is too young, and his qualifications are a little difficult to convince the public.

So it didn't take long for him to take up the position, and he asked himself to go north, hoping to gain victory in the battlefield of Beishuo. But they were rejected by the empress at the same time. Beishuo's battlefield was too dangerous! In the past few years, many high-ranking generals in North Korea have been crushed there.

And Cui Wei refused to give up his plan to go to the battlefield. After weighing the two phases, he went to Zhennan General Mansion as a vice general.

Although Nan Chen was generally calmed down, the remaining forces separated from the counties in the south. In addition, there were still some local forces with a heart in their homeland who rebelled from time to time and needed repression. On the battlefield in the south, Da Zhou soldiers and horses have an absolute advantage, and there is no need to worry about his security issues.

Now, after practicing for several years, I have accumulated military achievements enough to convince the public before returning to Beijing.

"Chen Ying, leader of Chenping Xiying, see the emperor." Cui Ying kneeled on one knee.

Suddenly remembering the first meeting between the two, Qin Nuo was lost for a moment before he said: "Be flat, Cui Qing has worked hard in recent years."

Cui Wei stood up, smirking at the corner of his mouth, as if with affection: "On the South Chen battlefield, but some little thieves, what kind of hard work, if one day can be against the Beishu Tieqi sand field, competing for life and death, only then can he show his true skill . "

Cui Yun talked eloquently. He grew up in the palace from childhood to childhood. The emperor was never constrained. Whether Emperor Jing Yao or Qin Cong, it was the same in front of Qin Nuo.

Although he is not familiar with Qin Nuo, in his memory, this stupid guy is just the most humble prince. Except for that accident, the two met very little. But after that, he quickly left the court.

Qin Nuo laughed: "Cui Qing still remembers northern Xinjiang. I'm afraid the queen queen will not let it go. Brother Xiongquan knows it, and he won't agree to let you take risks."

Speaking of Qin Cong and Queen Mother Huo, Cui Wei felt sad for a while. He went to the southern battlefield and heard the news of the changes in the palace. He thought of returning to Beijing immediately. However, at the beginning, Queen Mother Huo thought it was not the right time and ordered him to rest in peace. Southern effectiveness. After that, the situation in Beijing began to be tense, and Nan Chen was rebellious. He was trapped in a war situation, and it was difficult to escape.

"Xun Zheng wanted to ask about this. In the past few years, Nanchen local rebellions have come one after another. Why?" Qin Nuo asked positively.

It was more than ten years since Da Zhou captured the capital of Nanchen, building the city of Pei. Pei Yu suppressed the place with a thunderous thunder, and he was able to help, and soon the Quartet Jingping and Nan Chen resistance were concentrated in the southernmost areas. Shire, there is still under the control of the puppet emperor.

After Beishuo invaded south, Pei Yue went north. North Korean general Yu Wenche assumed the position of General Zhennan and continued to attack the remaining forces of Nanchen. The battle was smooth at the beginning. The local forces in Nanchen were continually compressed. From the land of the six counties to the present, there are only two remaining counties. Of course, Chen Emperor opened up the power of the Uli country in the rear. That is another matter. Already.

However, with the rapid spread of news reports on the battlefield, Nan Chen's original counties and counties have begun to break out in recent years. These places, which have been under the control of Da Zhou for more than ten years, should reasonably be used to the new rulers.

Especially in these years, the court watched the Nan Chen Xiao court diminish more and more, and consciously Nan Chen took over for a long time, so he gradually converged on the policy of forced repression, calmed the gates of Nan Chen in many ways, and even the imperial examinations allowed Nan Chen Scholars participated. But policy easing has eased, but insurgency has increased?

Zhennan General's Mansion is now stationed in Jian'ou City, and 200,000 soldiers are enough to sweep over any force, but it still can't hold back the momentum of rebellion. Even Jianye's insurrection in the city broke out several times. Qin Nuo was surprised.

Da Zhou's suppression of the rebels was extremely harsh, and almost every kill was countless. From the memorial reported by the Southern Army every ten days, Qin Nuo frowned. Recently, due to the conquest of Nan Chen, Qin Nuo turned out all the reports of the years.

Although it is on the table, it is just a few words about the number of betrayal and rebellion. But behind every number, there is a **** slaughter.

He ordered the Ministry of Military Affairs to count the Nanchen Zoubao in recent years. It can be said that the number of rebellions has increased and the number of captures has also increased.

At first, he even suspected that General Zhennan's government was watching the war run out, thinking of gaining military merits and even killing good ones. However, at this time, Da Zhou's identification of military merits was very harsh. Such things as killing good and taking merits, occasionally luckily succeeded once, and so again and again, it is impossible.
