Chapter 520 What a brainless person

The matter between Andongwei does seem to be very big because it involves the Prince Lu Mansion.

According to Yin Fengyi's report, the steward of the Lu Prince's Mansion accompanied Ni Chong to the Andongwei was actually the steward of the Lu Prince's Mansion, named Liu Renchu. According to the Ming Dynasty's relevant management regulations, the vassal kings and their relatives could not leave the fiefdom before they received the emperor's orders, and they were not allowed to leave the city. Otherwise, they would have to be punished for treason. Zhu Youjian, the former king of Tang, tried to go to the capital to serve the king because he led his troops to leave the fiefdom, but was ordered by Emperor Chongzhen and demoted to a commoner.

However, the housekeepers of the vassal king's mansion are not listed here. The housekeeper is an outsider and is not subject to the regulations on the management of the vassal kings. The housekeeper is generally a confidant of the vassal king, a confidant of the vassal king, and is deeply trusted by the vassal king. Therefore, if there is any major event in the vassal king's mansion, the housekeeper often sends the vassal king to deal with it. Everyone knows that the vassal king represents the vassal king's mansion. The vassal king's mansion comes and says that the vassal king attaches great importance to this matter.

It was precisely because of An Dongwei's affairs that Yin Fengyi had to ask Zhang Zhun for instructions. Yin Fengyi would not understand that Zhang Zhun wanted to rebel. Zhang Zhun would not understand that he would not understand that Zhang Zhun wanted to control An Dongwei. Zhang Zhun would not be polite to the vassal kings of the court, and that he would not understand that he would not understand that. However, at present, Yin Fengyi was a little confused whether he would take action against the Lu Mansion. On the ground of caution, he decided to report the matter first.

The strength of the Lu Prince Mansion is much greater than that of the Heng Prince Mansion, and its relationship with Emperor Chongzhen is much closer. In Yanzhou Prefecture, the Lu Prince Mansion is a complete court. The Lu Prince Mansion also controls most of the land and economic lifeline of the Yanzhou Prefecture. Some people have counted that at least 40% of the land in Yanzhou Prefecture belongs to the Lu Prince Mansion. If the business of Yanzhou Prefecture earns ten cents, at least four cents of the land belongs to the Lu Prince Mansion. It is conceivable that the strength of the Lu Prince Mansion is.

In Andongwei, the Lu Palace also has a large amount of land. The land in Yanzhou Prefecture could no longer satisfy the appetite of the Lu Palace, so it expanded to Qingzhou Prefecture. According to the most conservative estimate, the Lu Palace had at least 40,000 acres of land in Andongwei. This is also the reason why the Lu Palace was so anxious to interfere with Andongwei. Zhu Shouyou, the King of Lu, was unwilling to see his own 40,000 acres of land and was stolen by a group of poor military households. If they implemented the policy of dividing land according to the "Junior Field Order" of the Hu Ben Army, the losses of the Lu Palace in Andongwei would be too great.

In Zhang Zhun's eyes, An Dongwei's affairs were not very big, nothing extraordinary. The key to the matter was still in the Lu Palace. If you take the Lu Palace seriously, something would be very big. If you don't take the Lu Palace seriously, something would be nothing great. In Zhang Zhun's eyes, there was no Lu Palace at all, let alone a housekeeper who pretended to be a tiger's power.

"I'm going to Antonwei for a few days."

Zhang Zhun pondered for a moment and said lightly.

Yin Fengyi's ability is no problem in fighting. The battles of thousands of Ming troops led by Ni Chong are not opponents of the Min-name camp of the Hu Ben Army. The problem is that if Zhang Zhun does not deal with some political issues, the people below will not handle them well. Especially when it comes to the issue of the Lu Prince's Mansion. Zhang Zhun is still relatively clear about the strength of the Lu Prince's Mansion, and is definitely not comparable to that of the Heng Prince's Mansion.

Soon, Zhang Zhun took twenty snipers to board Li Jicheng's flagship again and headed towards Andongwei. Because there was no danger on this section of the route, even three escorted Cangshan ships were saved. After sailing for a day and a night, Zhang Zhun successfully arrived at Andongwei.

There is a wharf in Andongwei. Yin Fengyi has already controlled the wharf in advance and is waiting for Zhang Zhun's arrival on the wharf. Behind Yin Fengyi are the officers and soldiers of Minzi Battalion who are waiting for the troops. Judging from their expressions, they seem to be full of anger! You don't need to ask what the butler of the Lu Prince's Mansion brought it.

"Where is the butler of the Prince Lu's Mansion?" Zhang Zhun said straight to the point.

"Just opposite, that big fat man is." Yin Fengyi whispered.

Zhang Zhun looked up casually. On the opposite side of him, about fifty meters away, there was a big fat man watching his arrival impatiently. The clothes he was wearing were very expensive and were wearing a large amount of gold, silver, jewelry, and was afraid that others would not know that he was rich and powerful. Around him, there were about a hundred followers, all dressed brightly and full of spirits.

Zhang Zhun frowned quietly. The people in the Lu Palace were indeed majestic. Even a small housekeeper had so many followers. There was information that at least 40% of the wealth of Yanzhou Prefecture was concentrated in the hands of the Lu Palace. It seems that this number is very likely to be true. Now I am very short of money. Should I go to Yanzhou Prefecture for a walk?

"Are you the butler of the Lu Prince's Mansion?" Zhang Zhun asked calmly.

From Yin Fengyi's information, Zhang Zhun learned that the butler of the Lu Prince's Mansion was named Liu Renchu. When he saw this name in the information, he thought he was a literati, but unexpectedly, he looked like a slaughterer, all over his body was fat. If you want to talk about the weight of his body, this butler of the Lu Prince's Mansion was probably comparable to King Heng of Qingzhou Prefecture.

"I am the butler of the Lu Prince's Mansion." The fat man Liu Renchu ​​answered proudly.

It can be seen that he is full of arrogance and is very impatient. The word "I" reveals his mentality completely. As the housekeeper of the Lu Palace, wherever he goes, it represents the majesty of the Lu Palace and the majesty of the royal family. Therefore, Liu Renchu ​​has become accustomed to such domineering scenes. In his opinion, Zhang Zhun will definitely give him enough face to see the golden lacquer signboard of the Lu Palace.

In order to show that he valued family affection, Emperor Chongzhen was more inclined to the vassal kings. In the eyes of Emperor Chongzhen, the lineage of the Lu Prince's Mansion was relatively close. If anyone made King Lu unhappy, he sued Chongzhen for a lawsuit, Chongzhen would definitely favor King Lu. King Fu had caused so many things in Henan, and Chongzhen favored him, let alone the closer King Lu? This is also the reason why the Lu Prince's Mansion is powerful.

However, Zhang Zhun did not give Liu Renchu ​​any face at all. He even dared to expel the dignified prince, let alone the small butler? He was the dignified governor of the rear army governor's office. Even if he saw the legitimate prince, he would just give a simple salute. A small butler of the dignified prince dared to take control of himself and dared to despise him from a condescending manner. Isn't this seeking death?

"Liu Renchu, my lord is here, come up and salute quickly!"

Mo Yu shouted loudly.

"You want me to salute you?"

"I don't want you to salute me, it's already done."

Liu Renchu ​​may have been used to being arrogant, and without any hesitation, he directly responded. When he spoke, the fat on his chin was shaking, as if it would fall off at any time.

"Faith the boss!"

"It's time to fight!"

Mo Yu said expressionlessly.

"Want to hit me?"

"Who are you?"

"Did you take the prince seriously?"

I don’t know what medicine I took wrong, but Liu Renchu ​​was obviously not afraid of Mo Yu’s words, but became even more arrogant. He looked at Zhang Zhun with an indifferent and even contemptuous look. He was indeed used to being arrogant in normal times. As long as he carried out King Lu, he could shock everyone.

"Come!"

"Drag on!"

"Fight ten sticks first!"

Zhang Zhun shouted coldly.

The soldiers of the Tiger Army around him immediately stepped forward and dragged Liu Renchu ​​down.

Liu Renchu's entourages rushed up to steal people, but were tightly controlled by the Hu Ben Army's bayonet. These entourages also carried muskets, but they did not dare to shoot first. The reason was very simple. There were six or seven hundred people on the Hu Ben Army, and there were only one hundred and dozens on their side. If they really wanted to fight, they would definitely suffer. What they relied on was the majesty of the Lu Palace. Once the other party didn't care about the Lu Palace at all, they would immediately be helpless.

"Bang!"

A follower tried to rush up, but Zhang Zhun took a tiger gun and raised his hand and shot it.

The gunshots resounded through the sky, bringing a strong shock.

"Who dares to step forward!"

"Kill without any refusal!"

Zhang Zhun shouted coldly without thinking.

Look at me and I look at you. In the end, they all stood there obediently and didn't dare to move. Everyone could see that Zhang Zhun was definitely not intimidating. If they really went up, the Hu Ben Army would really shoot. The number of Hu Ben Army was more than five or six times that of theirs. It was really irrational to be a hero at this time.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

When the two sides confronted each other, the fatty butler had been pressed to the ground and executed the military stick. The two who were executed were the two hooligans and Brother Wei. Liu Mang liked the most. This fat man actually dared to be arrogant in front of Zhang Zhun. Isn’t this seeking death? Damn, today I beat you to death! I only saw him picking up the military stick as thick as his arm, hitting the butler of the fatty man’s palace hard one stick.

The heavy military stick fell down, and Liu Renchu ​​suddenly screamed like a pig, wailing. The fat on his face was twisted because of the pain. The fat on his butt was even more beaten to pieces. Liu Mang hated the other party in his heart, and he showed no mercy, and then he hit him again. Liu Renchu ​​could not do anything except wailing desperately. After ten sticks, Liu Renchu ​​was already dying, and his butt was completely opened and bloomed.

Zhang Zhun said coldly: "Are you still the butler of Prince Lu's Mansion?"

Liu Renchu ​​rolled his eyes helplessly, as if he was angry, but he was anxious and angry. He felt that he was bullied by Zhang Zhun. He couldn't help but say intermittently: "I... am... the housekeeper of the Lu Palace... I want to tell the prince... you..."

Zhang Zhun said coldly: "Are you still the butler? You have to tell the prince? Someone comes! Get another ten sticks!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Liu Mang immediately raised the military stick as thick as his arm and beat it hard again.

Liu Renchu ​​suddenly screamed like a pig slaughtering, screaming one after another. As the military stick fell, his butt was completely beaten to the point of blood. Every time the stick was lifted, it would bring a lot of blood. However, Liu Renchu ​​was in pain, but he never died of breath and did not fall into a coma. All of this was because he had too much fat on his body.

In fact, Liu Mang wanted to kill the other party with a military stick. He could vaguely feel Zhang Zhun's murderous intent. Zhang Zhun would definitely not blame him for killing this fat man. Therefore, he was absolutely merciless. Unfortunately, there was too much fat on Liu Renchu's body. Military sticks as thick as arms could not hit the vital points at all, and they were all hit on the fat meat. Unless you hit the head with a stick and directly open the watermelon. However, if that was the case, it would be too cruel.

After the ten sticks, Liu Renchu ​​lay on the ground and stopped moving. He could only enter and not vent his breath. He was also a pampered person in the Lu Palace. When did he get such a beating? It was already very good to be able to save a life. Now he finally woke up. What Zhang Zhun was trying to target was not him at all, but King Lu!

In other words, even if there are a hundred Kings of Lu here, he will only be beaten to death. Because Zhang Zhun wanted to use him to warn King Lu: Don’t interfere in anything in Qingzhou Prefecture, otherwise I will come to the door directly! If I can expel King Heng, I can expel you! Even, I will directly cut you with one knife! The reason why he is still alive is that he has nothing to do with King Lu.

Zhang Zhun asked coldly: "Are you the butler of the Lu Prince's Mansion?"

How dare Liu Renchu ​​say that he has something to do with the Prince Lu Mansion? He sniffled and cried, and shouted with all his strength: "No... I am not the housekeeper of the Prince Lu Mansion... I have nothing to do with the Prince Lu Mansion... I am pretending... I am pretending..."

Zhang Zhun said coldly: "The illegal and unruly people dare to pretend to be the housekeeper of the Prince Lu's Mansion! The crime is unforgivable! I miss you as the first offender, so I will spare your life! If I see you next time, I will beat you fifty military sticks!"

After saying that, Liu Mang and Brother Wei let go of their hands.

Liu Renchu, who saved his life, lay on the ground, with bloody butt on his butt, and felt like he was about to die. However, his heart was relieved. It seemed that his life had finally been saved. If he had known that he would have such an end, what would have happened to him? Zhang Zhun was really a ruthless person!

Zhang Zhun was indifferent at all and didn't even look at the other party. Whether Liu Renchu ​​was dead or alive, it didn't matter now. The information he wanted to pass on to the Lu Palace has been passed on. As for whether the Lu Palace can understand it, and whether it can accept it after understanding it, it is the matter of the Lu Palace. Anyway, he is not afraid of trouble. No matter how the Lu Palace takes action, he will follow it.

"Sir, Ni Chong is here."

Suddenly, Lu Yidian came to report.

Zhang Zhun frowned quietly and said calmly: "Please come here!"

Lu Yidian went out. After a moment, a thin and small officer came to Zhang Zhun. It was Shandong General Ni Chong. He and Liu Renchu ​​were exactly two extremes. Liu Renchu ​​was tall and big, with fat all over his body. He was a general, but he was black, thin and short, and he felt like a ground mouse that came out of somewhere. If he had achieved military achievements, a person like him could get the title of general, it would be a miracle in the world.

Of course, Ni Chong did not come by himself. He brought all the three thousand war soldiers under his command. The Ming army's combat soldiers were stationed at less than fifty feet away from the Hu Ben Army. These Ming army soldiers were also fully armed, and it was obvious that those who were good did not come by were not good. It was precisely because of the support of three thousand war soldiers that Ni Chong did not take Zhang Zhu seriously.

Zhang Zhun said coldly: "General Ni? A rare guest, a rare guest."

Ni Chong said coldly: "You and I are both generals, so don't be polite."

Zhang Zhun said coldly: "Since that's the case, what will General Ni come here to do?"

Ni Chong said bluntly: "Zhang Zhun, you are the general of Dongjiang Town. It's not your turn to interfere in An Dongwei's affairs, right?"

Zhang Zhun said casually: "Mo Yu, tell him, how many tits do I have?"

Mo Yu, who had been following him, immediately stepped forward and said loudly: "General Ni, my elders are the Grand Governor of the Army Governor's Office, the general officer of Dongjiang Town, and are also in charge of Laizhou Prefecture, Dengzhou Prefecture, and the military affairs of Dengzhou Prefecture, and the admiral of the Dengzhou Navy..."

Ni Chong said a little angrily: "So what? Zhang Zhun, I tell you that your hands cannot control Qingzhou Prefecture! The edict did not mention that you were also in charge of the military affairs of Qingzhou Prefecture!"

Zhang Zhun still looked careless and said coldly: "Mo Yu, tell him what does the Governor's Office in the Later Army do?"

Mo Yu immediately said in a thought: "General Ni, listen to the responsibilities of the governor's office of the rear army! The governor's office of the Five Army is divided into various garrisons except the commander-in-chief of the personal army in Beijing and the guards of the capital. All military officials, officials, local officials, and local officials will be reported to the prefecture, and the prefecture will be transferred to the Ministry of War for the selection. After selection, the prefecture will be issued to the Ministry of War. The chief officials will be awarded the award and grants to the Ministry of Personnel."

"Others such as military officials' edicts, training of water, land, infantry and cavalry, army's Qingge substitutes, salary, food, garrisons and equipment, boats, chariots, military information, border hinterland maps, firewood, chariots, firewood, chariots, and reeds, all matters will be transferred to relevant institutions for handling. Each government has only the power to command military forces, and the power to dispatch troops is in the Ministry of War. Whenever a war occurs, the emperor will order the general to be the commander and lead the soldiers and seals of the guards under the governor's office of the Five Army to go out to war. The army will return to the court and return to the guards..."

Ni Chong interrupted Mo Yu's words and said in anger: "Zhang Zhun, don't talk nonsense to me! Qingzhou Prefecture is not under your jurisdiction. It is a transcendence for you to appear here! I have the right to accuse you from the Ministry of War! The Ministry of War will hold you responsible! Antonwei's rebellion has seriously endangered the interests of the Prince of Lu's Mansion. You should consider it yourself!"

Zhang Zhun smiled slightly, glanced at Ni Chong with a squint, and said meaningfully: "Ni Chong, you said I would cross the line and I would be held accountable. Then, I ask you, have you transferred troops without authorization and received the approval of Zhu Dadian?"

Ni Chong was slightly suffocated, his eyes were a little annoyed, and then he said, "I... this is my business, don't worry."
To be continued...
