Chapter 2016 Why are you so late

Zhu Pingan watched Zhao Wenhua and Hu Zongxian leave hand in hand, and walked into the room under the guidance of the messenger.

Zhang Jingduan sat at the head of the room, followed by a group of civil and military officials. Some of them were known to Zhu Pingan, such as Li Tianchong, Yu Dayou, Lu Boring, and Tang Kekuan. Of course, there were many people whom Zhu Pingan did not know.

"Meet Mr. Zhang, I have met all the gentlemen and generals." Zhu Pingan bowed his hands and saluted Zhang Jing and others.

"Zihou, no need to be polite, please take a seat." Zhang Jing waved his hand and motioned for Zhu Pingan to take a seat.

There is only one empty seat here, and this empty seat is in the third place. Apart from Zhang Jing, there is only one person in front of him.

I don’t know this Zhu Pingan. He is about fifty years old, with a Chinese character and a serious face.

I am the right minister of the Nanjing Ministry of War and the governor of Zhejiang. If this person is ranked ahead of me, he must be a big shot.

Zhu Ping'an was about to sit down when Yu Dayou behind him stood up with fists in his hands to pay his respects, "Greetings to your lord, if you know that your lord is coming too, I will definitely come with him, so that you can have a good time along the way." "Please take care of me."

"General Yu is interested, sit down." Zhu Pingan smiled and nodded.

Zhu Ping'an had just sat down when he heard the boss next to him,

"The final appearance, Mr. Xiao Zhu is really a noble man. He has made us all wait for such a long time."

On the side. The boss looked at Zhu Pingan and said with some dissatisfaction.

Zhu Ping'an, you young man, you have only been the right minister of the Ministry of War and the governor of Zhejiang for a few days, and now you are drifting away? ! It’s such a big deal, but it’s so late! Let the Governor and I wait here for a while.

There are people outside the world, and there is heaven outside the world. You are the right minister of the Ministry of War and the governor of Zhejiang, and I am the left minister of the Ministry of War and the governor of Yingtian!

Although we are both deputy chiefs of the Yingtian War Department, with the same official rank, and both are of the third rank, but left and right, left and right, left is in front of right!

I, the left minister of the Ministry of War, are in front of you, the right minister of the Ministry of War. I am seated in front of you, and my position is also in front of you. When a minister is promoted to minister, it’s the left minister who is promoted to minister. You, the right minister, step aside!

Also, although we are both governors, I am the governor of Yingtian, you are just the governor of Zhejiang, and Yingtian is our accompanying capital of the Ming Dynasty. Governor Yingtian is naturally half as high as you, the provincial governor of this place. Level, naturally more powerful than you.

"Ahem, Mr. Tu, Zihou is in Shaoxing and is no closer than us, so it is normal for him to come later."

Zhang Jing, who was sitting on the throne, coughed lightly. Explained to Zhu Pingan.

"The distance is far? Yu Dayou is in Zhenhai, so he is much further away than Zhu Zihou. Yu Dayou has been here for an hour, and Zhu Zihou has just arrived late. I'm afraid the distance is not enough to explain it. . ”

Master Tu shook his head slightly and gave the example of Yu Dayou as counter-evidence to show that distance is not a problem.

"The last general was born in the army." Yu Dayou spoke up and wanted to explain to Zhu Pingan.

However, as soon as he started talking, he was interrupted by Master Tu with a look of displeasure.

"Shut up! Sir, what are you going to say?" Master Tu scolded Yu Dayou with a displeased and angry look.

Yu Dayou awkwardly held his fists in apology.

Tang Kekuan, Lu Ti and others present looked at Yu Dayou sympathetically and gave them moral support.

They are all used to this.

Today's daimyo are noble in civility and light in military affairs. Not to mention the left minister of the Ministry of War and the governor of Yingtian who scolded them, even the civil servants two or three levels lower than them could point their noses and scold them. Dayton.

Their military attaches, even if they are third or fourth grade, will dismount and salute when they meet the seventh grade magistrate.

Civil servants command military officers like them, and promotion, reward, demotion, and punishment are not matters that they just say a word.

Civil officials are promoted to governors, then to Taoist ministers, and then to governors. Military generals like them will never become Taoist ministers and governors no matter what.

These generals are just the commanders who manage the soldiers. No matter how many officials they are promoted to, they will only manage more soldiers.

The Taoist Governor is the commander in chief.

Even if their military generals eventually become high officials in the feudal territory due to their merit and status, they still have to stand obediently and listen to their instructions when meeting other Taoist ministers and governors.

Until the Ming Dynasty, almost two hundred years after the founding of the country, no military attaché has ever entered the cabinet.

After Master Tu reprimanded Yu Dayou, he continued, "I am not putting on airs, nor do I mean to embarrass the juniors, but the important affairs of the country lie in worship and the army. If everyone does not actively respect the governor's order, then the governor in the future will Your Majesty’s orders cannot be implemented, what if? Why destroy the Japanese pirates?”

“It’s true what Mr. Tu said, peace is late, I would like to apologize to the governor and all the generals.”

Zhu Ping’an stood up and said to Zhang Jing and himself. The Master Tu next to him and the generals below him all bowed their hands and apologized.

Then, Zhu Pingan gave a brief explanation, "After Pingan received the message from the Governor, he made arrangements immediately and came on horseback."

"Since Mr. Xiao Zhu came on horseback as soon as possible, considering the time, he shouldn't have been so late."

Master Tu said reluctantly.

"What Mr. Tu said is absolutely true. Ping An should have arrived about three quarters in advance. The reason for the delay was that Ping An and his party encountered a small group of people burning houses in a roadside village on the way. As the governor of Zhejiang, Pingan is responsible for protecting the country and the people. How can he see the Japanese pirates burning down the villages within the territory? Sitting back and watching, he commanded his fellow Zhejiang soldiers to attack from front to back and annihilated the Japanese pirates in one fell swoop. After wiping out the Japanese pirates, in order to avoid the plague, they burned the Japanese pirates' corpses. It took some time, so they arrived late. "< br>
Zhu Pingan briefly described the scene at that time and explained to everyone the reason why he was late.

"What? Master Zhu wiped out a group of Japanese pirates while he was on his way?! How many troops did the Japanese pirates have?"

"Real or false?"

"Master Zhu said that a group of Japanese pirates were annihilated. Is there any evidence?"

Everyone present was surprised after hearing this. They did not expect that Zhu Ping'an was on his way. He actually wiped out a small group of Japanese pirates.

“A total of thirty-six Japanese pirates were killed, and their heads were handed over to the front yard for registration and screening.”

“The messenger who was traveling with me also witnessed this with his own eyes. ”

Zhu Pingan said calmly.

"Is it as Lord Zhu said?" Zhang Jing ordered the messenger who had just brought Zhu Pingan to come and asked him again in front of everyone.

"It is indeed as Mr. Zhu said. Mr. Zhu commanded the Zhejiang army to divide into two groups, attack from the front and rear, and annihilate the Japanese pirates in one fell swoop. The Zhejiang army's firearms were powerful, and the thirty-six Japanese pirates had no power to fight back. All were annihilated.”

The messenger answered truthfully.

“Awesome!”

"Zhu Butang is so awesome. He killed thirty-six Japanese pirates along the way." Everyone was full of praise.
