    The news that Emperor Tianqi ordered a retrial of Zhang Juzheng's case spread quickly throughout the capital. After being surprised, most people were happy.  Many rotten scholars who usually clamor are no longer talking at this time.  The news spread quickly, but the trial of the case was very low-key, as if everything was going on quietly.  In the following days, Emperor Tianqi did not issue any new imperial edicts, and the city of Beijing seemed to be quiet again and returned to its previous state.  It¡¯s just that many people understand that the quiet is short-lived. When the two cases are completed, the entire capital will once again stir up a storm. However, after what happened last time, no one should be too surprised this time.  Everything in Beijing is calm, and there doesn't seem to be much going on in Liaodong. Sun Chengzong has been staying in Shenyang Zhongwei for three days.  In three days, Sun Chengzong conducted a comprehensive inspection here and found that the people here were wealthy, the soldiers were elite, and the military discipline was strict. Wu Xiang was indeed a talent.  "My lord, the official is back!" When he came to Sun Chengzong's side, Xiong Tingbi hugged Sun Chengzong and said in a deep voice.  Sun Chengzong nodded slowly, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, Fei Bai. Come, sit down and drink tea!" "Thank you, sir!" Xiong Tingbi said with a smile after taking the tea handed over by Sun Chengzong.  After pondering for a moment, Sun Chengzong asked quite seriously: "How is it? Have you found out the matter?" "My lord, we have found out! There are about 60,000 people here, because the guard Wu Xiang is talented and the soldiers are also  Because they are elite, they are rarely harassed and robbed. The people here can farm with confidence, and the annual harvest is very good. The people here spend half of their annual income on taxes.  He even paid more. Except for the imperial court, all the rest was used as military rations. However, the military rations were not used so much. Wu Xiang sold all the remaining grains and converted them into money.  Buy the armor and weapons of the soldiers," Xiong Tingbi said with a serious expression.  Nodding slowly, Sun Chengzong sighed softly and said in a deep voice: "I have already guessed that this would be the case. The people of Liaodong also want to live a stable life. For this goal, they are willing to pay more.  By the way, who did Wu Xiang sell the food and grass to? " "My lord, it's Liu Che, the governor of Jiliao! Wu Xiang usually exchanges food with him, so here it is.  If you hand over the food, he will send it to you." Xiong Tingbi sighed deeply and said helplessly.  Sighing softly, Sun Chengzong said helplessly: "It was people like this who harmed the Ming Dynasty! Don't spread this matter, let's just pretend we don't know about it! It's not easy for Wu Xiang, let's be considerate.  "Yes, my lord, I understand!" Xiong Tingbi said with a smile as he hugged Sun Chengzong.  After thinking for a while with his hands behind his back, Sun Chengzong said in a deep voice: "We have been here for three days. Let's go say hello to Wu Xiang! Let's leave here and go to the next place!" When Sun Chengzong was about to leave, Shenyang  But a man came to He Shixian in the city. With the arrival of this man, He Shixian, who was bored, finally found something to do!  "General, there is someone outside who wants to see the general!" the soldier said loudly, clasping his fists at He Shixian.  ??Frowning slightly, He Shixian has been unhappy since Sun Chengzong and the others left Shenyang City.  He was not allowed to go to such a thing, saying that he was so virtuous and respected that he should be in charge of Shenyang City. Thinking of this, He Shixian couldn't help but feel angry.  Hearing that someone wanted to see him, Xiong Tingbi frowned and said unhappily: "Who is it?" "Back to the general, it's a general who calls himself Zhao Lejiao!" The soldier clasped his fists and said loudly.  He Shixian frowned when he heard this name. He had heard of this person before, but they were not from the same faction.  Before Sun Chengzong came to Liaodong, the army in Liaodong was roughly divided into three factions. There were two factions in Shenyang, one was led by Yang Yuan.  This faction relies on smuggling and collaborating with the enemy to obtain a large amount of money. The quality of the army's officers is poor, and their combat effectiveness is naturally not to be mentioned.  The second faction is the faction led by He Shixian. This faction is full of upright generals who dare to fight and are not afraid of death.  But they are always marginalized, and their equipment is extremely poor, but their combat effectiveness is the highest.  The last faction is the faction led by Yuan Yingtai, the former governor of Liaodong. Yuan Yingtai was a good official, but he didn't understand military affairs at all.  But here in Liaodong, if you don't control a little military power, you have no right to speak.  In order to have the right to speak, Yuan Yingtai also attracted some generals, but he didn't understand military affairs, so he had people to advise him!  This Zhao Lejiao was Yuan Yingtai's number one strategist. He was originally a general, but because he ran away from the battle, he became the commander-in-chief.  In fact, according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, Zhao Shujiao's crime is enough to be beheaded, but it is notHe knows who he found and saved his life.  For such people, He Shixian looked down upon them, and it could be said that he was very bored.  Since Sun Chengzong came to Liaodong, He Shixian was impressed by Sun Chengzong's ability and character, and He Shixian's faction naturally became Sun Chengzong's faction.  Yuan Yingtai's faction was mainly concentrated in Liaoyang, and was naturally accepted by Yang Lian, the newly appointed governor of Liaodong.  But Yang Lian seemed to feel that he did not need such people, so he naturally handed them over to Sun Chengzong.  In the army, the most admirable people are capable people. Sun Chengzong has simply become Zhuge Wuhou in this world.  The soldiers and generals were all in great admiration and naturally had no other ideas.  As for Yang Yuan's faction, most of the officers were arrested and more than 10,000 people were laid off. The rest were all merged into He Shixian's.  At this time, there were no factions in Liaodong, and everyone belonged to Sun Chengzong's faction.  Many people in the army looked down upon people like Zhao Shujiao. He didn't know what he was doing here at this time. After pondering for a while, He Shixian decided to let him in. He was bored anyway!  After glancing at the soldier, He Shixian said in a deep voice, "Let him in!" "Yes, General!" The soldier replied, then turned and walked out.  Not long after, I heard the sound of footsteps outside, and with the flash of figures, a person walked in quickly.  A middle-aged man in his forties walked in. He was not very tall or burly. He was wearing a Ming Dynasty military uniform and had a knife on his waist.  Looking at Zhao Shujiao walking in, He Shixian was slightly startled. Zhao Shujiao seemed to be different from before.  Before that, He Shixian had also met Zhao Shujiao. At that time, Zhao Shujiao always had a smile on his face, but it was just a common superficial smile.  He Shixian once suspected that Zhao Shujiao was not a military commander. Such a person looked like an insidious scholar.  After learning that Zhao Shujiao was a martial arts scholar in the 29th year of Wanli, He Shixian was full of disbelief.  How did such a timid, scholar-like guy become a martial arts scholar?  There is only one answer in He Shixian's mind, and that is that Zhao Shujiao cheated. This is another reason why He Shixian looks down on Zhao Shujiao.  But the person who appeared in front of He Shixian at this time was different. He was dressed in military uniform. He didn't have that smile on his face, but looked a little more serious.  Holding the handle of the knife with his right hand, he walked very steadily, and the look in his eyes was different. It was a kind of indifference, a kind of indifference that always ignored life and death.  At this moment, He Shixian knew that he had thought wrong about many things. There must be a reason why Zhao Shujiao was like that before. The current Zhao Shujiao was the real Zhao Shujiao.  "Zhao Shujiao, who is a humble official, has met General He!" Although Zhao Shujiao and He Shixian are about the same age, and may be a few years older than He Shixian, their official positions are quite different.  In the past, Zhao Shujiao was a staff general and He Shixian was the commander-in-chief. Now Zhao Shujiao has become the commander-in-chief and He Shixian has become a loyal and brave uncle. The difference is getting bigger and bigger!  Nodding slowly, He Shixian said in a deep voice: "General Zhao, please forgive me! We are old friends, there is no need to be so polite!"  That's it!" Zhao Shujiao said in a deep voice without changing the expression on his face.  Smiling indifferently, He Shixian said in a deep voice: "How can a person never have to memorize words in this life? It will get better in the future. Sit down!" After Zhao Shujiao sat down, He Shixian pondered for a moment and asked in a deep voice.  He said: "Brother Zhao, please don't be too harsh. Although we knew each other before, we were not familiar with each other. I just said it bluntly. I wonder what Brother Zhao has to do with your visit this time?" No matter who's age it is.  Damn, He Shixian is determined to occupy this position.  Holding a fist towards He Shixian, Zhao Shujiao said in a deep voice: "To be honest, brother, Zhao Shujiao is here to beg me this time! I hope I can help you. Although we didn't have a close relationship before, we have had some problems.  We met several times, and in the humble position in Liaodong, I can only find the general!" After a moment of thought, He Shixian hesitated and said: "Brother, I want to ask something that I shouldn't ask. I follow Mr. Yuan Yingtai, why are you here?  "Didn't Mr. Yuan Yingtai prepare a way for the wise brother?" "Brother, I won't hide it from you. Mr. Yuan did find a job for me, but I didn't go to me. He was a member of the Imperial Guard in the capital!"  After taking a breath, Zhao Shujiao said in a deep voice.  "The Imperial Guard in the capital is a good place. I wonder why Brother Zhao didn't go there?" He looked at Zhao Lijiao in confusion and asked in a deep voice.  In his opinion, people like Zhao Shujiao should go back to the capital, just in time to take care of themselves!  Faced with He Shixian's failure to protect himself, Zhao led the teacher and said in a deep voice: "General, if the emperor transfers you to the capital, would you be willing?" Without even thinking about it, He Shixian shook his head and fought hard in Liaodong.??, even if I am wrapped in horse leather, I will be straight in this life!  (To be continued.
