Chapter 1468 A pair of troublesome people

Ideals are full, but reality is skinny!

The two eunuchs from the Southern Ming Dynasty Army looked bitter and revenge when they saw Chen Xi. They looked like they were not good at it. Their straight eyebrows and eyes were full of evil looks made Wang He and Su Jingyang unconsciously stay away from him.

Judging from the two eunuchs in the military, it seems that Chen Xi has caused them to suffer. This is completely different from Su Jingyang and Wang He's mentality. In the eyes of Su, Wang and the soldiers in the army, being able to fight with Chen Xi was a blessing in eight lifetimes. Why did it become a bad thing when the two father-in-laws talked?

Chen Xi didn't care about Zhang Yong's complaint at all, and said with a smile: "Eunuch Zhang, you'd better investigate some things before you can talk about them... It was not because I asked you to be a military supervisor, and I was even ordered to be a military commander for the six provinces to be transferred without knowing it in advance. If Eunuch Zhang has any opinions, you might as well go to the capital city. Maybe you can go back to Beijing to enjoy your happiness by asking your Majesty for instructions?"

The way Chen Xi talks to Zhang Yong is simply a tit-for-tat! Don’t talk about etiquette, Chen Xi basically says something ugly. Even if Zhang Yong has a temper, it’s useless.

In other armies, even if the commander does not flatter the eunuchs in the military supervision, he must serve them as his ancestors, and he is afraid of their bad things. Only in Shenxi, the commander is the old man, and he can suppress the eunuchs in the military supervision without restraint. When he turns to divide his military achievements, he can just miss it. Then the eunuchs in the military supervision can return to the capital with a grand ceremony, get promoted and raise salary to the peak of his life.

Zhang Yong had already experienced it once. He wanted to buy some land in the south when he was working in Jiangxi, and from then on, he would be a local rich man. Now, he had just arrived in Jiangxi and had just recognized his two godsons and was about to borrow the power of Tumu Fort to make some money, but he was recruited by the court to send him to the southwest.

As for Liu Jin's even more unlucky, he was always coerced by Zhu Houzhao on the way to perform his duties, and his silver was spent all. Later, Xie Qian had been investigating the prince's affairs in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Liu Jin was worried every day. Fortunately, Xie Qian finally left. He was about to make up for his losses when he bought an official in the capital, but his official position was lost and he was arranged by the court to serve as a military supervisor in Chenxi.

How hard it is to be Chen Xi's military supervisor? He, the first person to follow Chen Xi out of Beijing, knew the best. He had been very angry with Chen Xi in the past, but he didn't expect that he would be Chen Xi's military supervisor again when he went to the battlefield.

But now Chen Xi's status has soared, and Liu Jin is far inferior to Chen Xi, but he doesn't want to flatter him, and even looks at him, which is quite like asking for trouble.

Zhang Yong said angrily: "Mr. Shen said this lightly. Go back to the capital? Humph, you have to be kind to your Majesty. Do you think Your Majesty can agree?"

Chen Xi spread his hands and smiled, and the meaning seemed to be saying, why don’t you try it? Maybe it will be done?

Now Zhang Yong and Liu Jin were even more angry. They chased the army, with only two carriages and a few followers around them, crossing mountains and ridges, and the food and drink cost was poor. In addition, the court gave them a deadline, for fear that there would be delays on the road and the court would pursue them. They didn't bother to enjoy the scenery and came to Chenxi. As a result, when they saw Chenxi, they complained a few times and wanted to vent, but Chenxi was ridiculed and ridiculed, and felt uncomfortable.

...

...

When he entered the central army's tent, Chen Xi asked someone to carry two large wooden boxes and handed them to Liu Jin and Zhang Yong respectively.

Because the two men's boxes were heavy, Zhang Yong and Liu Jin stepped forward to weigh it, and their eyes suddenly lit up. Obviously, they thought this was a bribe given to them by Chen Xi, which is commonly known as the "meeting gift".

Although the two were secretly happy, they looked arrogant on the surface. Because Chen Xi took the lead in giving in, they felt very proud and instantly had the urge to swear.

Chen Xi interrupted their reverie and pointed to the box and said, "There are many daily necessities inside, as well as two pairs of armor and embroidered spring swords... Now we are marching and fighting in places where we are unfamiliar, and often encounter battles. It is best to be fully armed so as not to lose our lives in a mess. After Eunuch Zhang and Eunuch Liu go back, you can check it yourself. As for how to take it away, look at your own..."

When Zhang Yong and Liu Jin heard this, they wanted to vomit blood. Chen Xi carried two boxes to "give gifts", and what they gave were these worthless things?

The two of them still had an expectation in their hearts. This was a trick used by Chen Xi to avoid criticism from the soldiers in the army. After returning, they opened it and put it in it, not armor, waist knives and daily necessities, but gold, silver and jewelry... With this idea, they didn't listen to the military meeting that night. In their opinion, this kind of meeting had no meaning. Wherever they marched and how to fight had nothing to do with them.

On the contrary, Su Jingyang, Wang He and others, with a learning attitude, basically remember whatever Chen Xi said. They knew that if they wanted to get military merits, they would not be able to do so without putting in their efforts.

As for Zhang Yong and Liu Jin, they were just bad students there, they were completely in the left ear and out of the right ear. Although the two were much higher in their knowledge than Wang He and Su Jingyang, they were not interested in listening to Chen Xi’s “nonsense”.

After the meeting, Chen Xi specially asked the two men to carry the boxes to help Zhang Yong and Liu Jin back to the tent. After the two eunuchs walked out of the tent, Yun Liu came to Chen Xi and asked in a low voice: "Sir, I don't know if there is anything else to hand over to the two supervisors..."

Chen Xi thought for a while and asked, "What else? It's already great to give some armor, weapons, rice and pickles. Their salary is not the responsibility of our officials... Why do you want to do so much if you have nothing to do?"

Yun Liu was actually a little afraid of eunuchs who acted strangely and liked to go to extremes in their work.

Because she used to be a Dongchang man, she was always under the command of eunuchs. Dongchang Mansion is usually the second-place eunuchs among the Silijians. In addition, the tutors, foremen, and office staff are also mostly served by eunuchs. If Zhang Yong becomes the eunuch of the East Factory in the future, she will be in trouble.

But in fact, she has now left the Dongchang system and just didn't realize it for the time being. In addition, Chen Xi often uses the Dongchang intelligence system, so she gives her the illusion of still working in the Dongchang.

Chen Xidao: "Guard Yun, what you have to do is to try to spy on the information. As for whom I need to give to and how many gifts I give, it has nothing to do with you... If you can do your best, I will also ask the court for your title!"

Yun Liu looked at Chenxi, wanting to speak but stopping, with a feeling of grievance.

She actually wanted to say that she didn't care about anything she asked for. What she cared about was that she and Xier could become Chen Xi's women and that the most important thing was to rely on in the future.

Even if you do well in the East Factory and become a top student, it is similar to Yu Niang's situation. At most, you can get a training office and do despicable chores. Where can you get the chance to get married and have children?

...

...

After the Central Army's tent completely dispersed, Chen Xi returned to the tent. At this time, he still brought Hui Niang and Li Jin by his side and flew with him.

As for Yunliu, she was not favored by Chen Xi along the way, let alone a woman like Xier who had not been accepted by Chen Xi.

Yun Liu came out of the Central Army's tent and before leaving the camp, he saw Xier waiting anxiously in front of their tent. Seeing Yun Liu, Xier quickly asked: "What are the instructions of sir?"

When facing her good sister, Yunliu always feels a little guilty because she knows that she is close to the water and has now become Chen Xi's woman, but Xi'er has never had a chance. Chen Xi said she wants to accept it, but she didn't give a letter. This time, they both worked diligently when they were doing things outside, but Chen Xi didn't seem to remember much of their contribution.

Yun Liu sighed: "Xi'er, sir, please let you and me continue to spy on information. There is no need to worry about other things, let alone give gifts. sir, sir, never give gifts to eunuchs in the military! "

Xier pouted and said, "If you don't give it, you won't give it, it seems like we want to give it..."
