According to the rules, there were 14 thousand households in the Jinyi personal army in the capital, but in fact there were only eight people stationed in the capital. Although the thousand households were only five grades, each of them were considered figures.

Qianhu Zhou Linbing is the commander of the Nancheng. Although Baihu Tian Ronghao is in his territory, he is extremely respectful in front of Zhou Linbing's house.

Tian Ronghao's mind changed rapidly. Why did he call him here so early? The jurisdiction in the north of the southern city is quite peaceful, and the people below are still restrained. There are no important changes recently. More importantly, he has never paid less money in his usual cases.

Moreover, after Liu Xinyong's deduction was found, now there are all powerful men. The lieutenant handed over the regular silver and money he received and then distributed it from it. This was a bit troublesome, but the income was 30% higher. In other words, the money handed over to Zhou Linbing was also much more.

Besides these, what else did he make? In the living room of Zhou Mansion, Tian Ronghao's face was extremely respectful, but he couldn't stop thinking about it.

If everything is normal, if everything is normal, why should I ask someone to come here in the early morning of the twelfth lunar month? Just as I was thinking, a medium-sized man came out, Tian Ronghao quickly greeted him and said to Master Zhou.

Zhou Linbing is a real family of Jinyi's personal military. It is said that his ancestors had followed Chengzu Zhu Di to the frontier several times, and sacrificed their lives to earn this future for their children and grandchildren. This has been passed down in the capital for almost two hundred years, and their relationships are mixed. They are considered to be a native of the land and a local snake in the capital.

Such familiar characters and familiar characters, even the commander of the Jinyiwei, should be treated politely and give them some face.

Zhou Linbing had a beard like a steel thorn on his face, and had a leopard head and eyes, but he spoke gently and thickly. As soon as he entered the living room, he said with a smile:

"Brother, Lao Tian, ​​just sit down, why are you still standing and waiting? Sit quickly!!"

Shangguan's politeness and attentiveness made Tian Ronghao even more nervous. He sat half of his butt on the chair. Zhou Linbing was kind in his face, but he was smiling secretly. Tian Ronghao's father was born as a slave for the boss. He was a slave and a son.

But he spoke gently and said:

"I was in a hurry to greet you today. Lao Tian hadn't had breakfast yet, so I didn't eat either. Come on, let's have some oil tea together..."

The cold sweat on Tian Ronghao's back had already oozed out, and he became even more frightened.

"Old Tian, ​​I heard from the brothers below that there is a captain named Wang Tong who is very diligent?"

After drinking oil tea, Tian Baihu was surprised when he heard his boss's inquiry, but his face was not fluctuating. He quickly replied:

"Yes, this September, the personal army who made up for his father's shortage is not very old, but he is a diligent person."

When the twelfth lunar month does not need to be on duty, I send a quick horse to call people from my home early in the morning. Of course, I would not ask such a simple matter. Tian Ronghao could hear the meaning of his boss's words and had already made up his mind. After he went back, he promoted Wang Tong to a small flag.

"The commander-in-chief Liu has said many times that, like today, Zi Shengming, during the prosperous times, Jinyi's personal army is the personal army of the emperor. You must be extra diligent. When you encounter those who do well, you must be willing to promote it."

"What the lord said is that even though Wang Tong has only been in a few months, everyone has seen his work and people. The official is ready to promote him to be a small flag."

Even if he is not prepared, he has to say that he is ready. At least he can help his father sweep the floor every day and give him a lot of money. He can be considered a sensible and tactful character. He will do this after the New Year.

It seems that the old news about Wang Tong and a certain eunuch may be true. Tian Baihu cursed in his heart, and it was not too early to say this, which made me embarrassed.

Hearing Tian Ronghao's promise, Qianhu Zhou Linbing did not nod, but instead sighed and said slowly:

"Wang Li sent to Macau, and it was also my official sign. I didn't expect that this year he would become ill and have experienced overwork and such talents went there. It's a pity. When the Japanese official told several thousand households that when Wang Li came back, he must be given a commission flag to repay his diligence."

Tian Baihu could no longer remain calm, and his whole body was shaken and he asked hurriedly:

"Sir, Wang Tong is less than fourteen years old this year, and it's only three months to make up for the vacancies..."

The general flag is different from the small flag. The general flag is already a rank-level role in the Jinyiwei, equivalent to a deputy household with real power and good fortune. There are countless people watching inside and outside. Ordinary one hundred households cannot make a decision, and only a thousand households can dominate.

In theory, there is a shortage of the two general banners of the 100 households, in addition to Liu Xinyong, Tian Ronghao's subordinates also have a shortage, but because there are too many people in the Guanshuo movement and the several parties are in a stalemate, Zhou Linbing simply suppressed it. Recently, there are rumors that this position is planned to be given to the nephew of the commander Tongzhi (the deputy of the commander).

But I didn't expect it to be for Wang Tong. The Jinyiwei in the capital had a very serious habit in the officialdom, and he kept seven points, but Zhou Linbing said this just now almost eight points.

Tian Ronghao said a few words, but saw Zhou Linbing's face becoming cold and hard. He knew Qianhu's temper. He didn't want others to disobey his opinions. He was promoted and had nothing to do with him, let alone Wang Tong knew how to do it.

"What the Lord Qianhu said is that Wang Tongmengmeng, and his father Wang Li has great kindness to our personal army. After the low-ranking position, he will bring the promotional documents and newspapers."

"There is no need to be after the New Year. The sooner the better. I will give the documents to my official in the morning and report to the Experience Department as soon as possible!"

Zhou Linbing said firmly. Tian Baihu was completely unable to touch his mind, but he quickly stood up and agreed and said goodbye to go out. Tian Ronghao's vest was already soaked in cold sweat.

When riding on the horse, Tian Ronghao had the time to think about what kind of person Wang Tong was. In fact, Zhou Linbing, a thousand-household family, took care of him, would he attract resentment if he collected so much money from the other party?

But after thinking about it, I felt relieved again. My son and Wang Tong seemed to be friends for ages, and there was still a favor.

Tian Baihu was thinking about it, and Qianhu Zhou Linbing was busy going out at home. His wife complained while bringing her waist-branded clothes:

"It's the Spring Festival, why are you still running around outside without caring about your family..."

"What does the woman know? Can the things that commander Liu assigned before dawn be a trivial matter? I have to report to you now, otherwise some will suffer!"

Qianhu Zhou Linbing scolded a few rough words and hurriedly got out.

Everyone is willing to do such promotions. From top to bottom, they are so anxious. Tian Baihu, Zhou Qianhu and all kinds of people are so busy that they don’t touch the ground. Instead, no one knows Wang Tong. As a result, the promotion is so happy that there is not even a person who goes to Wang Tong to sell favors.

Wang Tong and the rest of their hundred households knew nothing about this.
