Chapter 52 The sudden arrival of Shen Jianzhong (Thanks to lzsg for the monthly ticket and book friend 0385 for the reward)
Looking at Wang Kangxin's departing back, Ye Mingsheng couldn't help laughing. It seemed that he had overestimated Wang Kangxin's methods. This guy had waited for him here on purpose, just wanting to talk to him and threaten him. It seemed that he was really at his wit's end now!
From Wang Kangxin's words, one can clearly feel that Wang Kangxin has already blamed himself for Li Wanshun's death, and hates Ye Mingsheng to the core, wishing to skin him alive and eat his flesh...
Despite this, Ye Mingsheng was not worried, even though the evidence of him embezzling money and taking credit for killing bandits was still in the hands of Wang Zhongsen and Wang Kangxin, his uncle and nephew.
Ye Mingsheng had already submitted the official document signed and endorsed by Wang Kangxin before leaving Ruishan County.
When Li Wanshun and Wang Kangxin were in Zhaowu Camp, they were inseparable, as close as brothers, and had a relationship as good as one person.
However, Ye Mingsheng really didn't believe that Wang Kangxin would perish along with him in order to avenge Li Wanshun!
Besides, he has now boarded Shen Jianzhong's ship. Even if it is to protect the credit for the surprise attack on Liujing, Shen Jianzhong will do something for him in the Supervisory Office and will not let him fail.
Therefore, even though Wang Kangxin had the upper hand, he could do almost nothing and could only watch helplessly...
As for who will cause trouble for whom once the matter is understood, it is really not certain!
Wang Kangxin wants his own life?
I, Temo, also want his head!
Ye Mingsheng greeted Ye Tie and others who were following behind him. He was not disturbed by Wang Kangxin and continued to inspect the defense measures on the top of Liujing City.
However, perhaps it was God who did not intend for him to finish his inspection of the city wall. He walked for about a quarter of an hour before receiving a message from Liu Shilin, saying that Shen Jianzhong had arrived and was waiting for him in the military camp.
Ye Mingsheng was surprised when he got the news, but he did not dare to delay and immediately returned to the military camp. He saw Liu Shilin accompanying Shen Jianzhong drinking tea in the tent.
"Master Shen, you are here!"
Looking at Shen Jianzhong who was still in high spirits on the main seat, Ye Mingsheng bowed and said:
"Well, I heard that you conquered Liujing, so I came to take a look." Shen Jianzhong said calmly with a smile on his face:
"Haha, you came here because you knew Xiang Yuanhui was coming with reinforcements and Liujing was safe!" Ye Mingsheng secretly complained in his heart.
Although he thought so in his heart, Ye Mingsheng still said very respectfully: "This time, thanks to Brother Liu's help, I was able to capture Liujing. If it weren't for Brother Liu's great help, I would have been driven out by the Gongdu army long ago."
Liu Shilin, who was standing aside, listened to Ye Mingsheng speaking well of himself to Shen Jianzhong, and a hint of joy immediately emerged on his handsome face. The resentment he had towards Ye Mingsheng because of the last scout incident also disappeared.
"Good! You all have made contributions in capturing Liujing, and the court will reward you!" Looking around, Shen Jianzhong nodded and said,
The three of them exchanged a few more pleasantries. Liu Shilin saw that Shen Jianzhong seemed to have something to say and wanted to talk to Ye Mingsheng alone. He then found a reason and left the tent, leaving the tent to Ye Mingsheng and Shen Jianzhong. As Liu Shilin left, Ye Mingsheng looked at Shen Jianzhong, quietly waiting for Shen Jianzhong's story.
"Mingsheng, do you know why I came to Liujing this time?" After a pause, Shen Jianzhong slowly said:
Ye Mingsheng thought for a while, but under Shen Jianzhong's gaze, he slowly shook his head. He really couldn't figure out why Shen Jianzhong came to Liujing at this time. Logically speaking, there should be nothing for him to do here.
"I came here specially to see you this time!" Seeing Ye Mingsheng shaking his head, Shen Jianzhong did not keep him in suspense and gave the answer directly.
Upon hearing this, Ye Mingsheng couldn't help but show some surprise on his face. Shen Jianzhong continued:
"Because of your success, I also successfully defeated Wang Zhongsen and took over Jin Yingquan's position. In a few days, I will return to Liaoyang to hand over to Jin Yingquan. I don't have time, so there are some things I want to tell you now!"
"Mingsheng, I have read your official documents in the Ministry of War. You are from Liaoyang, and your mother is from the Cui family of Liaoyang, right?" After saying this, Shen Jianzhong looked intently at Ye Mingsheng.
"Yes, my mother is from the branch of the sixth branch of the Cui family!" Although he was very confused and didn't understand why Shen Jianzhong asked this, Ye Mingsheng still told the truth:
After Ye Mingsheng finished speaking, a look of joy appeared on Shen Jianzhong's face, and he seemed to be very satisfied with the answer given by Ye Mingsheng.
Just when Ye Mingsheng's doubts became more and more intense and he couldn't help but ask, Shen Jianzhong said very seriously:
"Mingsheng, your chance has come. The Prime Minister has decided to recruit 30,000 soldiers in Liaoyang and train a new army called Zhenwu Army to be stationed in the eastern border!"
"Most of the Zhenwu Army's official positions will be held by military officers from the Zhaowu Camp, and the soldiers will be recruited locally in Liaoyang!"
Although Shen Jianzhong didn't say much, it was like a bomb that exploded in Ye Mingsheng's mind.
No wonder Shen Jianzhong cared so much about the relationship between his mother and Cui. So this is what he meant. Realizing Shen Jianzhong's purpose, Ye Mingsheng's face suddenly changed.
Although it is not clear yet what the purpose of Prime Minister Shangguan Hongyuan's training of the new army is, if what Shen Jianzhong said is true, then this will be the best news for him, although the potential risks are also great...
Seeing the change in Ye Mingsheng's expression, Shen Jianzhong knew that his student had realized the key to the matter. He nodded with satisfaction and continued:
"You have been under Xu Zhaojie's command for quite some time. You should know his character better than I do. You have tricked him this time. He will definitely not let you go. You can no longer stay in the Xuanwu Army."
"Even if you transfer to the Hujie Army or the Shenwu Army, as long as you stay in Luoan, Xu Zhaojie will always find a way to kill you, so leaving Luoan and joining the Zhenwu Army is Mingsheng's best opportunity!"
"I can tell you clearly that Wang Kangxin has decided to join the Zhenwu Army, but he is not as lucky as you to be related to the Cui family. With your relationship with the Cui family and your contribution in capturing Liujing this time, if you join the Zhenwu Army, you can have a bear tattooed on your official robe!" Shen Jianzhong said firmly:
