Chapter 627 Unwilling

He put down the wine glass with a smile, and Zhu Jiancai praised a few more words, which made Zhang Gaoji feel like a close friend. The more they talked, the more they became more and more speculative. After three rounds of drinking, Zhang Gaoji mentioned the Nanyang incident.

"This time, I am the vanguard of the army. The general gave me the task of attacking Nanyang to support the battle in the Central Plains. I know that Nanyang was once the territory of the Marquis, and that the Marquis had stationed troops in Nanyang. I wonder what can the Marquis have to teach me in this war?"

"Haha, the deputy commander has said this. I was just making a fuss with a bunch of mud legs back then. I can compare with the might of my Daming Tian Army? Besides, the deputy commander has been successful in the battlefield for a long time, and it is not comparable to us. What kind of teaching is there?"

"The Marquis is too humble. Who in the world knows the reputation of the Marquis? Now that the general sent the Marquis to our army, he is also relying on the Marquis' ability to decide the world for the Ming Dynasty and fight for this battle. The Marquis should not keep it from being kept in the cusp." Seeing Zhu Jiancai beat him up, Zhang Gaoji smiled and shook his head.

Zhu Jiancai immediately said a few more humble words, then said: "The deputy commander said this, I pray that someone would refuse again, but I can explain first that the judgment of Zhongyuan is just my own opinion, just a counselor. If you have any wrong words, please forgive me."

"It's okay, the marquis just said that."

After drinking another sip of wine, Zhu Jiancai talked about the situation in Henan. After all, he was in Henan for a while and had fought with the Qing army many times. Regardless of the terrain and the situation of the enemy, Zhu Jiancai was far more familiar with the situation of other Ming generals.

As for the land of Nanyang, it was originally a place where he stationed his troops. It was not until Wang Zhiqing entered the Central Plains from the middle of the Sichuan. In order to allow Wang Zhiqing's troops to attract the main force of the Qing army and reduce the pressure for himself, Zhu Jiancai gave Nanyang to Wang Zhiqing.

Immediately, Zhu Jiancai did not hide it and explained the situation in Henan to Zhang Gaoji, especially to the details of Nanyang. This was a long time ago. Zhu Jiancai also took the cups, bowls, chopsticks on the table and drew a map. Zhang Gaoji looked at it with concentration and asked about unknown places. Zhu Jiancai explained it one by one without getting tired of it.

After more than an hour, Zhu Jian finished his speech. At this time, Zhang Gaoji couldn't help but sigh: "I heard the Marquis' explanation today, and I was really enlightened! I thank you here. When I took Nanyang, the Marquis will be the first to win this move today!"

"Where is where, the deputy coach is so serious." Zhu Jiancai smiled very modestly: "I Zhu someone was originally a military counselor, and planning for the deputy coach is a matter of his post. Moreover, after returning to the Ming Dynasty, I Zhu someone had not made any achievements, which is really uneasy. As long as I can help the deputy coach and the Ming Dynasty, these small things are worth mentioning."

"The Marquis is so noble, I admire him."

"Haha, this is over, come on, drink and drink."

The drink was drunk until midnight, and the drunk Zhu Jian refused Zhang Gaoji's kindness to stay overnight. He shook his body and said goodbye to leave after the other party's greeting.

Because he drank wine, Zhu Jiancai naturally could not ride a horse like before, so Zhang Gaoji specially prepared a sedan chair for him. Zhu Jiancai was not polite, and after thanking him, he helped him into the sedan chair, and then gradually disappeared into the night.

In about two minutes, Zhu Jiancai's sedan chair came to a courtyard not far from Zhang Gaoji, which was a temporary residence specially arranged for him. The sedan chair stopped, and Zhu Jiancai's personal guard quickly stepped forward and lifted the curtain. He was about to reach out to support Zhu Jiancai who had drunk too much. Zhu Jiancai shook his body and barely stood there. He walked a few steps a while ago. After entering the courtyard gate, Zhu Jiancai didn't expect that Zhu Jiancai suddenly fell off the guard's hand. He saw his steps were steady and his eyes were sharp, and he looked like he was drunk.

Walking into the room with great strides, a personal guard quickly brought tea, rinsed his mouth with tea, washed his face, and removed some alcohol from his body. Then Zhu Jiancai sat in the chair and thought quietly.

"Prince..."

"Um!?"

The personal guard had just let out a soft cry when he felt Zhu Jiancai's cold gaze shooting towards him. He immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly slapped his mouth hard.

"Hao...Hao..."

Zhu Jiancai's gaze gradually calmed down. He stared at the man and said, "Xiao Wu, you have been following me for a while. Now it is not as good as before. You need to be careful when speaking and acting. If you say something wrong in the future and do something wrong in the future, even I may not be able to protect you."

"Yes, yes, little understands... understand." Xiao Wu nodded repeatedly with sweat on his head.

After swallowing his saliva, Xiaowu asked: "The gift to Deputy Manager Zhang has been prepared. I wonder if it will be delivered tomorrow?"

"No need to send it." Zhu Jiancai waved his hand and said, "Please keep those things for now, and then make a decision after I give it to you in the future."

Although he looked a little surprised, Zhu Jiancai had told him to prepare first, and he would send it quietly the next day after seeing Zhang Gaoji today. But who would have thought that Zhu Jiancai had changed his mind again after drinking. But this is normal. After following Zhu Jiancai for a long time, Xiao Wu knew very well that this master's mind had changed a lot. Often what he said the day before changed the next day, not once or twice. Since Zhu Jiancai explained this, he could only call him true.

"You go down." Zhu Jiancai waved his hand. Xiao Wu opened his mouth and was about to say something, but in the end he just said yes, and then said goodbye and left.

After Xiao Wu left, Zhu Jiancai was alone in the room. He was still sitting quietly in the chair, putting his fingers on the chair ring and tapping it gently. He recalled the conversation with Zhang Gaoji today in his mind, thinking about whether he had said something wrong or something he had ignored.

After recalling it carefully, Zhu Jiancai confirmed that there was no problem and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

In the eyes of outsiders, Zhu Jiancai did well after returning to Ming Dynasty. At least his status and status are not low. Moreover, the act of disbanding his subordinates and allowing the court to deal with them has greatly reduced the vigilance of the court against him. Even Zhu Yicheng praised him in front of the court.

If there were no accidents, he, the mighty Marquis, would have been stable and would serve in the Governor's Office of the Five Army in the future. Although he would not lead troops directly, his power would not be small. When the country was restored, his Zhu family would be the founding father and hereditary nobleman. As long as his descendants did not defeat his family, it would be fine for the Zhu family to live in the country in the future.

If he was an ordinary person, it would be enough to reach this level. But is Zhu Jian an ordinary person? Of course not! You should know that he was a man of a magnificent position and almost had a magnificent position with the Qing Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty, and Yuan Qi. At his peak, he even had 500,000 troops and became kings.
