The evil forces roaming the heavens

Chapter 1248 Tanluga: "Do you want my pearls?"

In the imperial city, candlelight flickered.
Lanterns were carried in the patrol, and the maids walked on tiptoe in the corridors.

In the study, Emperor Hongde looked at the battle report and slowly wrote a few names on the screen.
"Nan'e, has Jia Jue found out everything?"

Looking at the Jinyiwei commander in front of him, Emperor Hongde asked,

"Reporting to your majesty, I have already found out everything. Jia Jue's father is the ninth son of the twelve branches of the Jinling Jia family. He is the second son of a concubine. When he came of age, he separated from the family and married Liu. He had a son, this one. He passed the imperial examination at the age of nine. He is very intelligent. The master once said that he is a man of great talent!"

"This year, Jia Chang went out to do business in order to treat Liu's illness, but unfortunately he encountered mountain bandits and eventually died. He was captured by Lin County. He knew the news, but he never informed his mother Liu."

After hearing about Jia Jue's life, Emperor Hongde was also stunned.
Because in theory, Jia Jue is a good student. He passed the imperial examination at the age of nine. If he is lucky, he will probably be able to serve in the court in less than ten years.
But who could have known that under the outrageous manipulation of the Jia family of Rongguo Mansion, this young man actually ran to the battlefield to join the army, and even beat Daishan twice and made him flee in embarrassment.
The corners of his mouth twitched as he looked at the information. Emperor Hongde sighed and said, "The love he has for his mother is so strong. Could this be the talent that God has bestowed on my country?"

"Your Majesty, there are two strange stories circulating in Jinling. Jia Jue was penniless at first, but he bought a large courtyard with three entrances and exits by the Qinhuai River. At that time, the whole of Jinling was rumored to have a thief, and many wealthy families were robbed."

Nan E couldn't help but smile when he spoke to Emperor Hongde.
"Ok?"

Looking at Nan E suspiciously, Emperor Hongde asked in surprise, "Is it related to him?"

"I don't know, because I haven't found any clues about Jia Jue, but I think he seems to know this thief! Otherwise, it's impossible for him to have so much silver in just one month!"

Explaining to Emperor Hongde, Nan E, as the commander of the Jinyiwei, certainly did not believe in such a coincidence.
"So, our Jue brother seems to have quite a bit of the style of the Spring and Autumn Period!"

He laughed and Emperor Hongde couldn't help but tease.
"The second matter is about the Fifth Rank He Tongzhi. It's about the Wenxiang Sect. At that time, the Jinyiwei Qianhu once confronted a group of fierce bandits on the road, but because of the interruption of Ziwei Sheren's son, the other party retreated."

"The male members of He Tongzhi's family were executed, but the women were all spared. According to our Daqian law, they were exiled to the Jiaofangsi. According to the Liaodong Jinyiwei, the 300 people around Jia Jue seemed to be the same group of people who attacked and killed He Tongzhi's family."

Nan E became serious when speaking to Emperor Hongde.
"Ok?"

Hearing this, Emperor Hongde couldn't help but narrow his eyes and said, "He is an orphan and a widow with no one to protect him. It's normal for him to feel a sense of crisis. But without these people, he can't defeat Daishan! But this Jia family is really despicable!"

Although he was talking about the Jia family, Nan'e didn't dare to ask who the Emperor Hongde was talking about.
"I have also investigated the Jia family's affairs. Jia Jue once expressed his dissatisfaction with the Rong and Ning mansions at the clan meeting, and even injured Lai Da, the chief steward of the Rongguo Mansion."

Nan E couldn't help but explain to Emperor Hongde.
"Humph, this Jia family, who are supporting scholars in the imperial court, are having trouble, but they actually ask their relatives to send people out. They are truly a bunch of people who have no respect for the emperor or the father!"

He spoke angrily. Emperor Hongde was also very angry about the Jia family's behavior.
Among the four kings, eight dukes, and twelve marquises, every family has sent people to the frontier. Only the Jia family is so smart that they find relatives to replace them. Is Hongde blind? Can't he tell who is his own people?

If you dare to play like this now, he will dare to play like this with you when the emperor is gone!
"No one is perfect. It is normal to have some flaws. If he were flawless, I would not know whether he was loyal or treacherous!"

Thinking of Zhang Cheng's story, Emperor Hongde finally circled his name, with a glimmer in his eyes.
Because as long as they are not the emperor's men, it proves that they can be recruited.

"It is not a good thing for a young talent to be promoted too high. Tomorrow morning, the Ministry of Rites will discuss and confer the title of Fifth-Class Lady on his mother."

Emperor Hongde casually put down his pen and smiled.
Judging from Jia Jue's temper, protecting his mother in this way means he has grasped the direction of the reward!
Zhang Cheng had no idea what was happening in the capital, nor the news that the Jinyiwei was investigating Krieg. He was now focused on attacking Jinzhou.
But even if he knew, he wouldn't take it seriously.

After all, with Krieger here, even if something goes wrong, his mother's safety can be guaranteed. As for him, Zhang Cheng could only say one thing: Do you want to fight with me too?

In the night, on a slightly higher hill, the army was gathering.

Riding back quickly from the front, Krieg looked at Zhang Cheng with a determined look in his eyes. Looking at Krieg in front of him, Zhang Cheng turned his head and said, "At dawn, I will break into the city. If you can keep up, follow me. If you can't keep up, block the rear. In this battle, kill Shuerhazi and destroy the two blue flags."

Seeing Zhang Cheng say this, Tanluga doubted, "Can you really do it?"

"Can you do it? We'll talk about it after the war. If the situation is not right, you can run away!"

Looking at Tanluga calmly, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but chuckle.
He asked Tanluga to come just to shut Wang Ziteng's mouth. After all, it was too outrageous to attack Jinzhou with 5,000 people. Even if Feng Tang and Jiang Zining believed in his fighting ability, they would not dare to make such a decision. But it would be different if Tanluga's Mongolian cavalry were there.

"If you can really do this, I will give you the most beautiful pearl on the grassland as a marriage partner!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in front of him, Tanluga felt that this boy was brave enough and qualified to be his son-in-law.

"what?"

Looking at Tanluga suspiciously, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but be surprised.
I just want to be his boss, but he wants to be my father-in-law?

"Don't worry, my pearls are absolutely the most dazzling on the grassland."

When explaining to Zhang Cheng, Tanluga was afraid that he would not believe it, so he immediately spoke up.
After looking at Tanluga meaningfully, Zhang Cheng waved his hand.
When he stepped forward, Cao Wenzhao immediately handed over a mask to cover his face.
Putting it on his face, Zhang Cheng's aura immediately became extremely fierce, and the sense of oppression spread to the surroundings.

When the horses around were startled, Zhang Cheng looked at the sun rising not far away, and immediately swung the Liuhe spear in his hand and said, "Break the city!"

"Boom boom boom!"

The horses galloped forward, and five thousand recruiting soldiers rushed out immediately.

Looking at this scene in surprise, Tanluga now believed what Jiang Zining said.

In Jinzhou City, patrolling soldiers had just opened the city gates, waiting for people outside to come in, but in the next second, layers of smoke and dust rose in the distance.
Looking into the distance, when the Tartar was a little confused, he immediately shouted: "It's the cavalry, the cavalry is attacking the city!"

"Close the city gates! Damn it! Why haven't any scouts come back to report?"

The patrol officer roared hysterically.

However, they had no idea that Krieg had already killed all the scouts and outposts outside the city, and no one could escape back.
Leading the charge, Zhang Cheng, wearing a civil and military robe, pointed his spear forward, his eyes flashing with coldness as he said, "Why don't men take Wu Gou and take over the fifty states of Guanshan!"

"Please go to the Lingyan Pavilion for a moment. If you are a scholar, you will be a marquis."

"No one can stop me from being knighted, no one"

"Kill!"

Zhang Cheng roared angrily.

Just as he rushed forward first, the Tatar cavalry who came to block him were smashed away by his Liuhe spear.
