Chapter 103 Jiajing Watching the Fun
Facing the questioning of Xuancheng Bo.

Yan Shaoting pretended to be crazy and shook his head, looking like he was carsick from traveling.

"Oops..."

"You're in a hurry to come back. I'm afraid your nephew is..."

Snapped.

Two big hands clasped Yan Shaoting's shoulders from behind at the same time.

Yan Shaoting glanced back, but couldn't tell which family of nobles in Beijing it was.

The Earl of Xuancheng also continued, "I heard that Qi Jiguang, who is strongly supported by my nephew, is leading troops in Zhejiang. He recently fought against the Japanese pirates in Huajie, Taizhou, and his military exploits are outstanding. It is cause for celebration."

Yan Shaoting lowered his head, glanced at the uncle quietly, and said in a muffled voice: "It seems to be like this..."

The Duke of Xuancheng added, "I heard that only three people died in Qi Jiguang's army in this battle. To avoid the court's suspicion, I just reported to the Ministry of War that 115 people were killed in the battle."

"Is there still this?"

Yan Shaoting raised his head and looked at the Earl of Xuancheng with innocent eyes. There was a puzzlement on his face and he blinked.

The Duke of Xuancheng widened his eyes and snorted, "My nephew is really a wonderful person."

Yan Shaoting could only smile awkwardly.

"We also heard that the boys from Lord Zhu's and Lord Zhang's families killed five and three enemies respectively this time?"

The Earl of Xuancheng stared at Yan Shaoting dimly, scrutinizing his every tiny movement.

When news came from Zhejiang about the shocking victory of Qi Jiguang's troops in the battle of Huajie, regardless of whether it was true or not, at least the noble families in Beijing could no longer sit still.

Especially after the gossip that Zhu Shitai killed five enemies and Zhang Yuangong killed three enemies spread to various families.

This kind of news came from far away Zhejiang. As soon as the Ministry of War received the military report, the rumor spread in the city at the same time. It was basically impossible to be false.

Regardless of how many soldiers of Qi Jiguang's army died in the battle, there is definitely no doubt about the number of heads beheaded by Zhu Shitai and Zhang Yuangong respectively.

Yan Shaoting's face was filled with shock: "Is it true? My brother-in-law actually killed five enemies?"

The Duke of Xuancheng sneered and stared at Yan Shaoting with a dim gaze.

He didn't say anything either. He just sat in front of Yan Shaoting, holding the machete that was who knows how old it was, staring at him quietly with his dark eyes.

Yan Shaoting sighed silently in his heart.

Today, this group of people sent people from the Military Department to Changping to look for me, lying that the Yan family was surrounded, and then this group of people were waiting for me at home in armor and carrying swords.

He knew that this group of people would be difficult to deal with today.

These people are all nobles of the Ming Dynasty. Now that Zhu Shitai and the other two have made military achievements in Zhejiang, they are naturally jealous.

They made such a fuss just to show their attitude.

They just wanted to share in the credit for Zhejiang's victory over the Japanese invaders.

For so many years, the nobles have been content with enjoying themselves.

But they are not fools.

Not a fool either.

Faced with Yan Shaoting's obvious deafness and dumbness, Xuancheng Bo and others were indignant.

"Stop talking nonsense!"

The face of the Duke of Xuancheng darkened, and the tetanus knife in his hand remained motionless.

Yan Shaoting's expression remained unchanged.

I know exactly what these people are thinking.

But if they don't say anything, then I'm just pretending to be deaf and dumb.

Seeing Yan Shaoting acting like a loach in a paddy field and not wanting to get involved, the Earl of Xuancheng felt angry and anxious.

"Good good!"

"Since nephew Yan is like this, let's talk it out."

Yan Shaoting smiled and said, "You are the elder, so the younger generation must listen to you."

But listening is just listening, not doing.

That's another matter.

The Duke of Xuancheng snorted coldly, “When Zhu Shitai and the other two guys went to the southeast, it was you who proposed it in front of His Majesty in Yuxi Palace.

Just because they neglected their martial arts doesn't mean that we have been doing nothing these years. Why can they go to the southeast but we can't?"

Yan Shaoting glanced at Lord Xuancheng and muttered, "Aren't they in Fangchun Tower in South City..."

After mumbling, Yan Shaoting looked at Lord Xuancheng with a pure face.

How about you take your men to Fangchunlou and fight for a prostitute?
Xuancheng Bo's face flushed with anger, and he said angrily, "Anyway, we can do what those three guys can do.

The Ming Dynasty has two capitals, thirteen provinces, and a million-strong army. It is our duty to guard the territory and protect Your Majesty.

Don't think that we have been in the capital for a long time and that we are enjoying a comfortable life. But as long as you, Yan Shaoting, can say a few words in front of His Majesty, who among us would be afraid to fight in the battlefield?"

A smile appeared on Yan Shaoting's face.

Look.

Doesn't this reveal the purpose?

I am embarrassed to say it myself, did you, the Earl of Xuancheng, go into the battlefield to kill the enemy?
It's obvious that he just wants to gild himself and gain military merit.

then.

Yan Shaoting leaned back and said quietly, "A few days ago, I heard from the Ministry of War that Datong and Xuanfu reported that the Anda tribe would probably send troops south this year. The Nine Frontiers are related to the Great Wall, and the two towns are even more related to the safety of the capital. Why not..."

If you have the guts, go to Jiubian and fight those wolf cubs on the grassland!
The Duke of Xuancheng's eyebrows jumped, his complexion improved, and he changed his tone, saying with a smile: "Look, look. Nephew, although we want to share the worries of the court and His Majesty, we can't disrupt the court's military and national strategies, right?
If we suddenly go to such an important place as Jiubian, wouldn't it be a mess?

We all think that Qi Jiguang is currently in Zhejiang to quell the Japanese invasion. And with Zhu Shitai and the other three guys here, why don't we go over there?
I think Qi Jiguang is quite good, he is good at fighting and is invincible. If the battle against the Japanese pirates in Zhejiang Province goes smoothly, we think the court will probably let Qi Jiguang continue to fight against the Japanese pirates in the southeast."

Where in the nine borders is as safe as the southeast?

Even if we cannot kill the Japanese and gain merit, we will still have somewhere to escape to.

If he were placed anywhere in the Nine Borders, once the war went against him, he would just have to wait to be hunted down by those damn wolf cubs on horseback.

Yan Shaoting kept smiling, but he was silent in his heart.

Change with the times and seize opportunities.

It all depends on this group of Ming nobles who have been passed down for hundreds of years.

Look at what they are planning.

The Japanese on the neighboring Japanese island can hear it!

Yan Shaoting turned his gaze and looked outside. Anger appeared on his face and he shouted, "Don't you want to work? Why don't you serve tea to all the uncles and brothers?"

outside the house.

The quails trembled all over and ran away quickly.

After Yan Shaoting's roar, the original atmosphere in the front hall of Yan's mansion was suddenly interrupted.

Yan Shaoting looked around at everyone present with a smile.

"My fellow uncles and brothers, you all know that I am only a fifth-rank official. Shouldn't matters like this be decided by His Majesty?"

……

"Humph!"

"I want to see how this kid will deal with these reckless men."

Xiyuan.

Ok Hee Palace.

Jiajing sat quietly in the Taotai as usual. Since receiving the news from outside, he has been smiling as if he was watching a show.

Lü Fang waited on the side and whispered, "They are also loyal and just want to help the country and His Majesty.

If Your Majesty doesn't want to use it, then just watch the fun.

After all... there aren't many opportunities to see Yan Shidu embarrassed and in trouble."

Jiajing looked at Lu Fang with a smile.

Point your finger.

The smile on his face grew wider.

"Hahahaha!"

"Then let's see how this kid can handle it this time."

"Let someone continue to explore."
