211 The Night Summons

Zu Dashou naturally knew the severity of the matter, and it was impossible to reveal what the emperor said to outsiders. Otherwise, if the civil servant knew about it, the ultimate loss of profit would be a military officer like him who was in a high position and had no promotion.

He stood beside his seat, and said to Cao Wenzhao with a smile on his face: "According to the oral order of Your Majesty, we will summon Deputy General Cao to meet in the back of the palace!"

When Cao Wenzhao heard this, he stood up immediately and was a little excited. Being summoned by His Majesty alone is also a kind of honor! What's more, judging from Zu Dashou's situation, it is likely that it is a good thing.

Therefore, he did not dare to delay. In the envious eyes of the generals, he sorted out his appearance and walked quickly towards the back hall.

Zu Dashou looked at his back disappearing from the hall gate before sitting back to his seat. He didn't look at the other generals, but just looked down at the desk in front of him, and began to think about the news he had just heard.

Outside the capital city, when the low-level officers outside Tiananmen came back in line, the soldiers from the Beijing camp and the Imperial Horse Supervisor had already withdrawn from the camps of the royal army. Of course, except for the camp of Ma Shilong.

Therefore, for these low-level officers, I felt that nothing happened at the camp. After entering the camp, they dispersed and realized that something had happened.

However, what does the matter of Ma Shilong’s military camp have to do with them! They have a lot of words to convey in their hearts, and they even reached the point of passing messages to their subordinates while having a meal.

After hearing about the matter of the Ming Zhonglietang, the soldiers were concerned about their own interests and immediately threw the things that happened in Ma Shilong's military camp behind them, and were all immersed in the gossip about the Ming Zhonglietang.

And Ma Shilong's servants like Xu Wenbo immediately found something wrong after entering the camp. Before they could feel something was wrong, they were urged by the Jinyiwei School Captain behind them and followed the passage isolated from the Beijing camp soldiers to the school ground.

When they arrived here, they found that there was a senior general sitting on the stage. Xu Wenbo happened to recognize him and was very surprised. Why was the general in the camp?

Naturally, he didn't know that Man Gui was no longer the general of Datong, but was granted title and officially became the admiral of the Beijing camp. He was puzzled and could only stand up with the order.

Man Gui also liked these low-level officers very much. He immediately repeated what he said before, and wanted to incorporate these low-level officers into the Beijing camp.

Xu Wenbo listened silently, and he found that his army was annexed, and he had no disgust. After thinking about it carefully, he understood the reason.

If it were before yesterday, even if they entered the Beijing camp from the border army, there would not be much higher treatment for them.

At least one thing they knew was that there was no war in the Jingying camp for many years, and there was basically no difference between the servants and ordinary soldiers in the Ma Shilong army. Some of them were treated differently from the distance of the relationship between the generals, and then they were treated as cows and horses for those generals.

In this case, if this situation occurs, they might resist, which is exactly where Ma Shilong relies on what he said in the Huangji Palace at that time.

However, at this time, Xu Wenbo and his friends had changed their minds since they learned about the news of the Ming Zhonglie Hall in Tiananmen Square. They were originally worried about their identity as slaves, but now they have the opportunity, so they are naturally moved.

Another point is that they think the emperor is much better than they imagined, and the Jingying will inevitably be different from before. They hope to see how far their future will be in the Jingying.

Man Gui didn't expect that the recruitment of these low-level officers in the Ma Shilong family ranks would be so smooth! If you think about it carefully, you will understand what factors are playing a role in it.

Thinking about this, he couldn't help but turn his head to look towards the Forbidden City, and once again admired the emperor. He actually solved a general with heavy troops in his hands without any accidents. It was amazing!

He looked up and saw that it was getting late, so he went to see Gao Shiyue, the eunuch in charge of the imperial horse supervisor at the head of the Deshengmen city of the capital. The two of them ordered the withdrawal of troops together, completing today's mission without any danger.

On the Wuying Palace, Cao Wenzhao was released back to the front hall after it was dark. At this time, the city gate was closed and the emperor had an order to let them rest in the city for one night and leave the city with the emperor tomorrow morning.

Hu Guang was really tired for a day today. When he returned to the harem, he almost didn't want to speak. But tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and it is another important day. For him, it is destined to be a busy day.

However, he didn't care about these. What he cared about was that there were nearly 100,000 soldiers outside the city, but he couldn't take out much supplies and rewarded them on New Year's Eve. The only thing he could do was to reward a little supplies that were pitifully small and then give a bowl of spiritual chicken soup. The quality of this bowl of spiritual chicken soup depends on Hu Guang's own ability, and the effect may be completely different.

In addition to these, I also prepared another thing. Whether this thing can be successfully implemented is really important.

Thinking of this, Hu Guang had to set up his imperial study again. Sure enough, a box with a small lock was placed on the imperial desk.

He took out a key from his body, opened the lock and took out the things inside. The top was a memorial. He ignored it and put it aside first, and then carefully looked at the rest.

After reading it over and over again, Hu Guang couldn't help but nod. Hu Zhengyan's craftsmanship is really not something he can use. Who can imitate this level of things? After he had a clear idea, he picked up the memorial and started reading it.

After a while, after reading it, he frowned and thought for a while, and immediately issued an order: "The chief minister Wen Tiren, Minister of Revenue Bi Ziyan, Minister of Rites Xu Guangqi, Minister of Rites!"

Fang Zhenghua, the eunuch who was serving him, was shocked when he heard this and quickly reminded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the palace gate is locked!"

When Hu Guang heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, nodded and said, "I know, but I don't have time to wait for tomorrow! The 100,000 troops outside the city are just 100,000. Once the food of the followers is used up, there will be not much remaining food in the capital for them to consume!"

When he heard this, Fang Zhenghua felt helpless. The Ming Dynasty was so poor! He did not dare to delay any more and immediately sent someone to pass the imperial edict.

Wen Tiren, Bi Ziyan and Xu Guangqi saw that it was dark and the palace gate was locked. The emperor sent someone to summon him, so he did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly followed the angel to the palace. At the same time, he wondered, the emperor was so anxious that he didn't know what it was for!

Among them, Wen Tiren knew a lot and even thought a little more, he was afraid that something would happen to Ma Shilong’s servants!
