[Chapter 214] It is possible to be regarded as a scapegoat...

【Today's sixth update is delivered!】
Wang Qinian said repeatedly: "This is different, this is different. You don't know how deep the Jinyiwei's water is! Anyway, I can't bear it anymore! I really don't want to do this errand. If you really want to, I can find a way to make you a lieutenant! With your ability, it is not impossible to be promoted step by step in the future."
Xu Xingxia calmed down her smile and asked suspiciously: "Old Wang, are you saying true?"
Wang Qinian replied seriously: "Of course it's true. Have I ever joked with you?"
Xu Xingxia pondered for a moment, made up her mind, nodded and said, "Okay! Just help me make up for a lieutenant! Look at how much activity costs, I will pay for it myself. By the way, if I make up for the lieutenant of the Jinyiwei, can I continue to do it in the Ningxia vanguard?"
Wang Qinian looked around and whispered: "Xu Baihu, I will talk to you together, and I will not hide it from you. The lieutenant I have supplemented for you are all secret stakes, just nailed to various places to inquire about the news. In addition to the secret identity of the Jinyiwei, we also have a set of identities to cover up. Therefore, even if we supplement the lieutenant of the Jinyiwei, you can continue to do whatever you want. Even if you become the commander of the guard, it doesn't matter."
"But there are some bad things like this kind of stump. There are few opportunities for promotion, fewer opportunities for success, fewer opportunities for wealth, and very high dangers. Don't think that the people of the Jinyiwei are very glamorous, but in fact there are many people with poor life. There are different divisions of labor within the Jinyiwei. Undercover lurking is the most dangerous and the most difficult thing to make a fortune."
"Some Jinyiwei have been lurking undercover in the enemy country all their lives, living a worried life every day. Once the identity is exposed, the five horses will immediately end. No one knows when such a day will end. It is possible that the superiors will forget them at all. I have been undercover in the prairie for fifteen years, and I dare not even have a wife and children, for fear of the exposure of my identity that will implicate others. You said, can I not be decadent?"
Xu Xingxia patted Wang Qinian on the shoulder vigorously, pretending to be righteous and said, "Old Wang, don't worry, the country will not forget you..."
Seeing Wang Qinian's sarcastic look, Xu Xingxia had to change her words and said, "Okay, let's not talk about these unpleasant things. However, I am indeed very interested in joining the Jinyiwei. It doesn't matter if the stolen stakes are not important, just help me make up for it."
In fact, Xu Xingxia does not care much about whether it is a secret stump. What he needs is only the identity of the Jinyiwei. As long as he has a formal identity as an Jinyiwei, he can catch the chicken feathers and call on the world. Any secret stump is shameful, it is the life of others. When it comes to Xu Xingxia's hands, there is no such thing as a secret stump.
Wang Qinian nodded and said, "Since you have the will, you don't need money. I have worked in the Jinyiwei for the rest of my life. If I want to add a lieutenant, they have to give me some face. I guess there is no big problem. As for what you do after adding it, it depends on your own luck."
Xu Xingxia smiled and nodded to express his gratitude. What luck can he have after joining the Jinyiwei? Isn’t it just to bully people with the identity of Jinyiwei? Now he has enough strength to bully people, but unfortunately he lacks a legitimate reputation. If things get bigger, it will not be beneficial to him. After all, a small garrison and hundreds of households in Ningxia Town are just muddy in the soles of his feet, and they are not even paving stones.
However, if you have the identity of the Jinyiwei, it would be different. When you encounter unreasonable, you only need to highlight the identity of the Jinyiwei and have a reason to be open and upright. Do you need a reason to do business in the Jinyiwei? Of course, you don’t need it! If you are paralyzed, you will get out of the Jinyiwei. I will get out of the way! I will count three times, and if you don’t get out of the way, you will be arrested!
...
After coming out of Wang Qinian's grocery store, Xu Xingxia saw Minghao. The weather in August was already a little cold, and he had to cover himself with a quilt when he went to bed at night. However, Minghao was sweating profusely. It seemed that he had rushed back from outside, and probably had encountered something big. Sure enough, Minghao quickly stepped up and whispered beside him: "Sir, the situation outside seems to be not right..."
Xu Xingxia nodded and said calmly: "Don't hurry, just talk slowly."
Minghao took a few deep breaths and said with a little concern: "Sir, there are some crazy words outside, which is very bad for you..."
It turned out that all the places where the losses suffered in the south of Ningxia Town were complaining that someone deliberately pushed the Tartars to them. They were all complaining, saying that the Beacon Huoduan of Kalong Mountain was blocked by the Tartars' attack. If the Tartars were not blocked in Kalong Mountain and could not move forward, they would not turn south and launch an attack on the south of Ningxia Town. In other words, if the Tartars came in from the direction of Kalong Mountain, they would not have been caught off guard.
Such rumors do seem ridiculous and have no reason at all. However, such a ridiculous rumors have been circulated in many places in Ningxia Town. It is impossible to say that there is no black hand behind it. Moreover, in terms of the spreading speed and the transmission area, the black hand behind the scenes is quite powerful. People at this level of the guards cannot do it, only the general officers or Ningxia Metropolitan Office can do it.
What is the purpose of these rumors? Of course, it is to confuse the public, disrupt the situation, and point directly at the Fenghuodun of Kalongshan. If you just simply believe the rumors, you will definitely think that Fenghuodun of Kalongshan is the culprit of the great losses caused by Ningxia Town this time. The Tartars burned, killed and looted the masses because they encountered a blockade in Kalongshan. If the superiors want to investigate and find someone to behead them, just take the people from Fenghuodun of Kalongshan.
Hearing these ridiculous rumors, Yuan Chonghuan was the first to explode and said sharply: "What? How dare you say such things? Shameless! Too shameless! Could it be that when the Tartars came in, we can't resist? We still have to stretch our necks obediently and send them under the Tartars' butcher knife? We have seen shameless people, but never seen such shameless people!"
Xu Xingxia waved her hand and told Yuan Chonghuan to be calm. She said to Minghao: "What else is there? It doesn't matter. No matter what you hear, tell it truthfully!"
Minghao said hesitantly: "...I said I want to use you as a scapegoat!"
Xu Xingxia said disapprovingly: "I am a small family, but I am just a sixth-rank garbage military officer. Even if I hand over me, how can they pass the test?"
Minghao said worriedly: "I guess this is the rumor released by those who are interested. They may be thinking that if you hear such a rumor, you will definitely explode. Maybe you have to find the person above to make a fuss. As long as you make a fuss, you will have something to say. The Governor of the Three Borders is in Ningxia Town. When you make a fuss, you will show the Governor of the Governor."
Speaking of this, Minghao's expression was indeed a little nervous. He was indeed a little worried that Xu Xingxia would go to the *** for impulse. At this time, the three-sided governor's face was really unhappy. In anger, he might personally deal with Xu Xingxia. The power of the three-sided governor was too great, and Xu Xingxia could not withstand it at all. If Xu Xingxia was removed from office and investigated, was imprisoned and was even beheaded and confiscated, he would be finished with him.
At the beginning, Minghao decided to surrender to Xu Xingxia because he was interested in Xu Xingxia's ability and believed that following Xu Xingxia killing the Tartars would have a future and aspiration. Later facts showed that Xu Xingxia was indeed a person who did big things, and he always felt very satisfied. However, he still underestimated the darkness in Ningxia town. In order to hide his fault, they actually wanted to attack Xu Xingxia.
In the Kalong Mountain Canyon, Xu Xingxia and his white-clothed army annihilated nearly a thousand Tartars, and severely hit the arrogance of the Tatar Arrow God Mo Rigen. Such contributions were beyond the reach of a hundred years ahead and a hundred years later. If they were reported to the court, it would be enough to be a marquis. However, in Ningxia Town, it ended up as a scapegoat.
Yuan Chonghuan became more and more angry and said angrily and anxiously: "It's simply unreasonable! How can you do this? Is this world so dark? Black and white are inverted, right and wrong are not distinguished! No, I want to go to the three-sided governor to explain it clearly! He must have been blinded by the Xiaoxiao mouse below! I want to tell the truth!"
Xu Xingxia was both angry and funny. Yuan Chonghuan was really a straight-hearted and angry young man before entering the officialdom. If he entered the officialdom, he would have to suffer many blows before he would become what he would later. If you go to the three-sided governor to complain, you might have been beaten out before entering Ningxia City!
In real history, Yuan Chonghuan also built a temple for Wei Zhongxian. Although these were helpless and flexible actions, they might not really flatter Wei Zhongxian in his heart, but when it was later liquidated, it was also a serious crime. Even if it was not clearly stated, it would be remembered in his heart.
...
Three days later, Xu Xingxia received the official documents sent by Qianhu, and went to Ningxia City on August 28 to attend the review conference. It turned out that Huang Kezhang, the governor of the Three Borders of Shaanxi, had arrived in Ningxia City and was preparing to take the aftermath in person. There were many people participating in this review conference. Xu Xingxia is a celebrity in Ningxia Town, so he is naturally among them.
Although he was not very familiar with this Governor Huang Kezhang, Xu Xingxia could also guess that he should not be a gangster. The Governor of the Ming Dynasty was a very awesome position. It was said that it was the Sanbian, but in fact it commanded all the troops of the four military towns, including Gansu Town, Ningxia Town, Guyuan Town, Yansui Town, and the power to govern the government affairs in Shaanxi. Basically, this position is equivalent to the Northwest King of the Ming Dynasty. How could ordinary people achieve this position?
I wonder how this three-sided governor is planning to deal with the aftermath? Will he be really taken out as a scapegoat? What if the situation is so bad, will he rise up immediately? Xu Xingxia fell into deep thoughts.
