Zhu Youjian said: "It seems to be Xiong Tingbi. We have seen him in the Palace of Supreme Harmony."

Xiong Tingbi, a famous king of blame in the history of the Ming Dynasty, his experience is even more legendary than the story. He was Wu Jieyuan, but a Jinshi of Wen. He was polite to Liaodong three times in his life, and the blame was taken more than the other. The first governor of Liaodong, he was incompatible with the commander of Nanji Jing Yangqiao, and was impeached and cruel and easy to kill. He took a small blame and stepped down. The second time was even more innocent. Yang Hao's blind command led the Ming army to be defeated in the Battle of Sarhu. Xiong Tingbi succeeded as the governor of Liaodong, stabilizing the chaos after the defeat and consolidating the defense line. But Yang Hao's uncle Yang Yuan was strange.

Xiong Tingbi refused to guarantee that Yang Hao, who lost his troops and humiliated the country, joined forces with the Censor Feng Sanyuan, Grand Secretary Gu Qing, and Shangshu Yao Zongwen and others to impeach him. This time the blame was a little bit bigger and he was escorted to Beijing for interrogation. The third time was the most unlucky, Xiong Tingbi was in charge of Liaodong, and Wang Huazhen was in charge of Liaodong. The two were in conflict. Wang Huazhen was the main attacker, and Xiong Tingbi was the main attacker. The main attacker failed, and the blame was left to the person who was the main guard. The blame was too great. Xiong Tingbi lost his head and was also "passed on the nine sides". He was punished by the Ming Dynasty to the history of Chinese history that was unprecedented and no one came later.

Zhu Cheng slapped his head and said loudly: "I remember, Xiong Tingbi, who has been fond of martial arts since he was a child, was Jie Yuan, who was in the Huguang provincial military examination. The next year, he abandoned his civil service and passed the imperial examination. Last year, he was sent to Liaodong. The Jiannu thief Nuer Hachi attacked Shenyang and was defeated by him. Xiong Tingbi is capable of literary and military affairs and is a rare good general in the Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Youjian said: "Since Xiong Tingbi likes martial arts, why did he take the imperial examination as a Jinshi but not the top scholar in martial arts?"

Zhu Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "The treatment of Ming soldiers has always been very low. When they see civil officials, they are inferior. A seventh-rank civil official can even kill third-rank military generals. It was because Lord Xiong saw this that he abandoned martial arts and practiced literature. I guess he must have wanted to get a civil official position through civil servants, and then become a civil official in the military. In this way, his status becomes higher and he can command the army..."

Before Zhu Cheng finished speaking, he heard someone laughing and said, "Zhu Cheng and Zhu Qianhu, you are really my soulmate. It is worth drinking three cups of wine at what you just said."

It turned out that Zhu Cheng's bad habit of talking about people behind his back was finally caught on the spot this time, and Xiong Tingbi heard his words clearly.

Everyone turned around and looked at Xiong Tingbi carefully. They saw that he was tall and burly, with a black face, his eyes were as lightning, and a thick and short beard, just like a steel needle or iron wire, with a firm look slightly wild.

Xiong Tingbi smiled and said, "Zhu Qianhu, we have met several times in the court. You are so noble that you are so forgot about it."

Zhu Cheng was unwilling to have something to do with Xiong Tingbi because he knew that Xiong Da Heiguo would be spread to Jiubian soon, and what was the point of making friends with a dead man. But when he heard Xiong Tingbi's generous laughter, Zhu Cheng fell in love with this straightforward man and said, "So, then I will set up a table in the hotel at the entrance of the temple to apologize to Lord Xiong."

The group left the temple and came to an exquisite hotel and chose a elegant seat to drink and talk.

Halfway through the wine, Zhu Cheng suddenly said, "Now, the Liaodong is Yuan Yingtai Shou. This person is a man with high eyes and low skills. He will definitely be defeated. The court will think of you again. What are the plans of Lord Xiong?"

Xiong Tingbi said: "Of course, I am loyal to the country. Don't say that I am only fifty years old this year, even if I am eighty, I will agree happily. A real man should wear a horse with a corpse, so how can he be a horse that loves a house?"

Zhu Cheng was silent for a while and said, "I suggest that Lord Xiong do not go to Liaodong. Lord Xiong is the Chu Party, not the Donglin Group. The Donglin Party will not be assured that the power of the border will fall, and will definitely send people to restrain it. There are not many people in the Donglin Party who know the soldiers, and Li San is one of them. I am so embarrassed by me. I am afraid it will be difficult to rekindle. Now only Wang Huazhen dares to live in Liaodong lightly, so the Donglin Party will definitely propose that Wang Huazhen be the governor of Liaodong."

Xiong Tingbi said: "I know that Wang Huazhen is a man who is stubborn and never learns military books and war strategies, but he likes to speak wildly. According to his words, it is ridiculous and a pity that can be used to pacify Liao in one month and destroy Mongolia in two months. However, the governor of Liaodong is in charge of civil affairs and can at most counsel military affairs. I manage Liaodong and take charge of military affairs, and I am still his superior. When I go to Liaodong, I don't argue with him, but I just give him up and don't let him interfere in military affairs."

Zhu Cheng shook his head and said, "Mr. Xiong has also been the governor of Liaodong. Why did you forget the full name of the governor of Liaodong? It is called the governor of Liaodong. It is the governor of Liaodong. It can be completely in charge of military affairs. He is a member of the Donglin Party and the disciple of the chief assistant Ye Xianggao. He responded to the court. He advocated attacks. Although this kind of remarks is nonsense and absurd, it is deeply loved by the government and the people. Although your strategy to defend against the enemy is safe and correct, it is not likeable. The strategy of both of you is sent to the capital at the same time. Whose strategy is affirmed and whose strategy is rejected, it is unknown if you don't ask."

Xiong Tingbi said: "After all, I am the local chief, and Wang Huazhen still has to listen to me. If I don't give him troops, can he still attack the thief chief Nuer Hachi alone? If this is the case, I can lead officials from all over Liaodong to watch the show."

Zhu Cheng sighed: "You forgot that he is a member of the Donglin Party. The promotion of local officials is all about the Donglin Party. No one in the local area listens to you. Your power is undermined. I'm afraid the commander of the bare hands is not Wang Huazhen, but Master Xiong Tingbi."

Xiong Tingbi was scared and sweated in a cold sweat. The drunkenness just now disappeared.

Zhu Cheng continued: "Wang Huazhen has always been very fond of merit and despises the great enemy. After taking office, he will definitely attack Jiannu and compensate them all. This failure is indeed Wang Huazhen's responsibility, but don't forget that he has a good teacher named Ye Xianggao, the current chief minister of the cabinet, and will definitely come forward to protect him. However, this failure must be found to find someone to be responsible, and that person is you, the nominal highest military commander of Liaodong - the Liaodong General Xiong Tingbi, you are that sad scapegoat!"

Xiong Tingbi took a sip of wine in a depressed manner and said, "I don't believe that although the Donglin Party members are the same, they are all gentlemen and will not do such things. Besides, there is no place to reason in the world?"

Seeing that he could not persuade him, Zhu Cheng knew that he was devoted to the country and could not say that he was foolish and loyal, he said, "Mr. Xiong, I would like to ask you for something on behalf of the people of Liaodong."

Xiong Tingbi said: "Please tell me."

Zhu Cheng said sincerely: "Mr. Xiong, please remember that the thief chief Nuer Hachi is cruel by nature and is willing to kill. Once we capture our Ming territory, we will definitely start killing and massacre our Han people. As soon as you take office, you will mobilize the people of Liaodong to retreat to the pass. When Wang Huazhen was defeated, please do not be angry. Please, for the sake of the local people, you can retreat less than one mile. You must know that if you retreat less than one mile, you can protect the people of one mile."

After saying that, Zhu Cheng stood up and bowed deeply to Xiong Tingbi.

Xiong Tingbi hurriedly stood up and helped him, saying, "What's the matter here? As an official of the Ming Dynasty, I should do this, and I should do this."

Zhu Cheng said: "If Lord Xiong can protect the people of Liaodong, Zhu will lend a helping hand when you are in danger."

Xiong Tingbi didn't care, so he raised his glass to greet Zhu Cheng and said, "That's the case, I will thank you first."
