Chapter 17 Shocking Wine
(please collect)
Jiang Bin calmed down and continued, "I have a grudge against Wang Dan and Huang Tong about this. On the surface, they are still polite, but I know that sooner or later they will not let me go. I'm just waiting for an opportunity. By the way, have you heard about the Black Mountain Fort incident three months ago?"
Song Nan shook her head and said, "I haven't heard that I study at home all day long and don't listen to anything outside the window."
Jiang Bin nodded and said, "No wonder you don't know, and this matter has not been made public. Three months ago, according to the attack of the Black Mountain Fort 50 miles north of Weizhou City, more than 20 people were killed and injured, but the soldiers who guarded the Black Mountain Fort were under the jurisdiction of thousands of households in the north. Although the Tarots raided overnight, there were 50 or 60 people, more than 50 or 60, more than those who guarded Montenegro. The Ming army in the castle was several times, and casualties were inevitable. In fact, I happened to take a leave to meet friends in Datong Prefecture in those days, but Wang Dan, an old thief, put the matter on my head, saying that my army was not strict and the defense measures were improper, so that I could take advantage of it. In the past few days, the Examination Department of the Ministry of War is about to send someone to investigate this matter. I guess Touching it, I'm afraid I won't wear my hat for a long time. Hey, a group of villains just blame me for being too upright and offending them.
Song Nanxin said: It turns out that you are all mud bodhisattvas crossing the river, but you came to invite me to enter the army and promise me to be promoted to the position of 100 households. Isn't this a lie with your eyes open?
"Brother Song, I know what you think in your heart. You must think that it is too unreliable for me to invite you to join the army as an official. I admit that in terms of the current situation, it is indeed relatively difficult; but since last month in front of Song's house, I have thought you are a resourceful person. Jiang fighting desperately is not a problem, but he is playing tricks. I'm really less careful, so I sincerely invite you to work in my thousands of households. I just want to ask Brother Song to help me get a proper idea to tide over the difficulties. If you can help Song overcome the difficulties in front of you, Song will be very grateful.
Song Nan finally understood the reason why Jiang Bin stared at him. It turned out that he wanted to borrow his brain to help him find a way to stay away from the disaster. Song Nan couldn't help laughing. This matter was really unexpected.
"Jiang Qianhu is a little like going to the hospital in a hurry. How can I help with this? It's okay for you to ask me to pray for you with incense in front of the Bodhisattva. There's nothing else I can do. Song Nan smiled bitterly.
Jiang Bin grabbed Song Nan's arm and said, "No, I saw the ability of the Song brothers with my own eyes. In a few words, I forced the Song family to give silver, and before going to the Song government, I had thought of several possibilities and countermeasures. Song asked himself that I couldn't do this. Moreover, you are a scholar, and Song is a rough man. However, he also knows that the reader has a lot of tricks, otherwise why would he even ask Xu Maogong, a scholar, to give advice for him? It can be seen that it can't be done without military force and strategy. This is also the conclusion I have thought hard about for months. Brother Song should not refuse and help me think of a way.
Song Nan is ironic. This logic is really strange, but when you think about it, it seems that there is a little reason. Liu Xuande looked at Zhuge Kongming and Liu Bang for the world and asked Zhang Liang to assist him. Even the Liangshan bandits at the time of Zhao and Song Dynasty looked like a scholar and military teacher Wu Yong. It's nothing for this Jiang Qianhu to think so. It's a big fuss.
At this time, the status of generals in the Ming Dynasty was not as good as that of literary ministers, but in the minds of the military officers, they had a feeling of both contempt and inferiority with scholars. Most of the military officials showed disdain for the readers, and Jiang Bin was certainly the same; but this situation is different, Jiang Bin encountered the biggest test in his life, but he planned to solve this big trouble. When he accidentally met Song Nan's way to ask for family property in front of Song's house, he had to admit that his head was not easy to use. Thinking of his own troubles, he wanted to turn to Song Nan, although Song Nan was only an extraordinary scholar, and even It can be described as nothing, but in Jiang Bin's opinion, it is a treasure.
Of course, Song Nan did not know the complicated cause and effect. He was only surprised by the sudden turning point of the matter, but as far as Jiang Bin encountered, Song Nan was very willing to help a gang. After all, in general, Jiang Bin is a conscientious border general. If he did not lie, he would have his soldiers It is also a kind of care, and the behavior of Wang Dan, the commander of Weiwei, and Huang Tong, are typical acts of corrupt officials and tyrants. They ignore the safety of the border town of the Ming Dynasty, squeeze their soldiers, and then retaliate afterwards. Although Song Nan is not the kind of gentleman, why not be happy to punish evil and promote good?
Moreover, Song Nan can see Jiang Bin's eagerness. He believes that as long as he can help Jiang Bin tide over this difficult situation, Jiang Bin will be convinced of himself in the future. His current situation, even if he climbs to a military officer with a small official position as a friend, is a big turning point.
But the question is, did you help yourself? How to help? This needs to be carefully weighed. If you can't help Jiang Bin, you can put yourself in. This can't be done.
Song Nan frowned and got up to walk slowly and seriously thought about this matter. Jiang Bin looked at Song Nan eagerly and turned his head back and forth with Song Nan's figure. A majestic martial artist was like a helpless primary school student at this moment.
The footsteps sounded softly, and Aunt Fang came over with a new dish, put it on the table, and said with a smile, "You two talked passionately. What kind of military affairs are so important? Come and try the fried foie gras stir-fried by the slave family. This pot of carved wine is shipped from the south, which warms the stomach and does not hurt the body.
Jiang Bin pointed to his lips and whispered, "Be quiet. Brother Song is thinking about things. Put it down. Thank you."
Aunt Fang was stunned. This Jiang Qianhu had never ignored herself so much. Whenever she appeared, his greedy eyes kept turning on her body, but now she not only had to whisper, but she didn't even leave Song Nan's figure and regarded herself as nothing.
However, Aunt Fang was quickly relieved that she didn't cook in person to show anything, but because Jiang Bin often took care of the business, the sergeants below him often came to take care of the business. Cooking in person was just to satisfy Jiang Bin's vanity. He can't let him think wrong, but he doesn't have to be old-fashioned and ruthless. Interesting, after all, I show up to sell wine, and I'm not a little jasper, and I don't need to be so pretentious.
Song Nan stopped and twisted her head and wrinkled her nose and smelled it. When she saw the hot dishes, she quickly turned back to her seat, raised her chopsticks and picked up her hot goose liver in her mouth and chewed it. She repeatedly praised, "Auntie is so good at craft, delicious and tight. You can't eat these dishes in a big restaurant."
Aunt Fang's heart is very happy, and some people praise her natural use, not to mention a handsome little scholar.
Jiang Bin eagerly wanted to ask questions, but it was difficult for Aunt Fang to speak, and he was embarrassed to ask Aunt Fang to leave. Song Nan smiled and said, "Lord Qianhu, try this fried foie gras. Aunt Fang cooks herself, and we will be blessed."
Jiang Bin said carelessly, "Yes, yes, did you think of that...?"
Aunt Fang was very smart and knew that it was hindering Jiang Bin's speech here, so she asked them to turn around and leave slowly. Song Nan's admiration came to her ear: "It's delicious. It's really delicious. If you can eat such a delicious dish every day, it's worth dying."
Aunt Fang has a fever on her face: Is this Xiaoxiu implying something? Just now, I was almost hugged by him. His body smelled good, and I don't know what pancreas he used.
"Cousin, why are you blushing?" Qingli stood at the counter and leaned her neck and asked.
"Go, you live here and watch. I'm going to get a grape rack in the backyard. There are guests here, and your hands and eyes should be numb. Don't be distracted. Do you hear me?"
"Okay, you are my cousin, not my mother, how can you be so talky?" Qingli pouted and turned around, hiding under the counter to concentrate on the embroidery in her hand.
Jiang Bin watched Aunt Fang walk away and asked, "Brother Song, can you help me or not? What good can you think of?"
Song Nan chewed foie gras vaguely and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? It's not bad at this time. Try this delicious food first.
Jiang Bin patted his legs and said, "Oh, if you help me get through this disaster, I will treat you to foie gras every day."
Song Nan said with slanting eyes, "Do you eat the foie gras fried by Aunt Fang every day? Can you do it?"
Jiang Bin was dumbfounded and said, "That won't work. It doesn't matter if it happens once in a while. I want her to fire every day unless I marry her and go home, but how can people like me?"
Song Nan smiled and said, "It's good that you know. There is no good way about this matter for a while. I have a few questions to ask clearly. After asking clearly, I can slowly come up with a way. Are you so anxious to urge me? When I'm a thin donkey, will you pull out a big piece with a pat?"
Jiang Bin was stunned, scratched his head and smiled, "That's right. It's not that easy. Think slowly that since Brother Song has promised to help me, the big stone in my heart has fallen in half."
Song Nan said, "Why did I say I wanted to help you?"
Jiang Bin opened his mouth and was dull, and Song Nan laughed and said, "Come on, Jiang Qianhu thinks highly of me, Song Nan, how can I not be praised, but I have something to say first. If I come up with a way, I will join the army, and you should also keep your promise. I don't want to be a soldier next to me. In addition, I don't want the status of a military household, otherwise I All the children and grandchildren are going to war. If I can't think of a way, I'm useless with you, that is, I want to hang out with you, and I'm afraid you don't want to.
Jiang Bin nodded repeatedly and said, "Brother Song is quick to speak quickly. It's not too practical for me to protect myself. How can I promise anything? As for the identity of military households, the Song brothers can rest assured that the army is not all military households, and officials are not military households. After promotion, the military household status is also hereditary. Official, that's even more harmful."
Song Nan nodded and said, "That's the reason, but I'll ask you and answer. I want to know the whole story."
Jiang Bin said, "Brother Song, I know all about answering."
