Emperor Hongzhi stared at Chen Zhong.

He was very clear about the battle in Jinzhou during the Chenghua period.

Although he was young at that time, the palace was extremely nervous. Even his father, who ignored the government, summoned ministers almost all night and agreed on a plan to attack.

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but sigh and said, "After that time, you will come to the capital?"

Chen Zhong shook his head and said, "No, after that, because of the escapist on his legs, the villain was incorporated into the auxiliary army. The three guards of Jianzhou rebelled. The villain was ordered to go to Liaodong to suppress the Jianzhou Jurchens. Although it was early spring at that time, Liaodong was particularly cold and the road was muddy and difficult to move. The villain was just a small man. He followed the army and killed the rebels in Jianzhou. In the snow, he surrounded and suppressed the rebels. The soldiers in front of him were killed for more than a month. The rebels in Jianzhou were almost destroyed, and the army returned."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded. This was the famous Chenghua Liting. During the Chenghua period, the Jurchens rebelled. These were originally Jurchens who were originally composed as Jianzhou Wei. In Liaodong, Emperor Chenghua issued an order to almost kill all the Jianzhou Jurchens.

The so-called court is the place where the Huns sacrificed their gods in ancient times, and it is also the military and political center of the Hun rulers. The petting court is the base camp to sweep away the enemy and sweep away his nest.

Emperor Hongzhi also had an impression of this battle. The mighty army set out from the capital and met with the border troops. After the battle, the news of the victory came. Emperor Chenghua was very happy and gave him a banquet for all officials.

At this time, Emperor Hongzhi looked at Chen Zhong's legs and said with a little curiosity: "If you have a disease on your legs, can you also carry food and grass?"

"Why can't it?" Chen Zhong said: "At that time, the old man was stronger than the soldiers in Beijing. The people in the Beijing camp could not bear the cold. When they arrived in Liaodong, they were too lazy to freeze and could not bear to move without kicking a few times. But the villain is different, the villain..."

When he said this, Zhu Houzhao suddenly said, "Oh, Jingying is so lazy, why do you say the same as Lao Fang?"

Fang Jifan: "..."

Is this considered being shot for no reason?

Emperor Hongzhi was also happy when he heard this. He looked back at Zhu Houzhao, and saw this guy's curly hair that made him look blind, and turned his eyes away with a tense face.

Emperor Hongzhi's eyes fell back to Chen Zhong and said, "Speaking of it, you are still a great hero."

Chen Zhong smiled and said, "What kind of heroes are these? Most of them have made meritorious contributions. When the court was plowed under the order, the army tried their best to attack and searched for the rebels of Jianzhou Jurchens. The pursuit was very urgent. At that time, the snow was three feet thick, and the wind blew on the face, like a knife. The army passed by, and there were no grass growing. I don't know how many heads were killed. The old man rushed to the car. After that, the Chenghua emperor rewarded the three armies more. I only got a few kilograms of jerky and a few taels of broken silver. The thousand households sympathized with me and my legs were not good. After reporting this, I allowed me to go back to the pass with the Beijing camp, change my nationality, and then I will settle down in this Beijing."

Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but sigh that he could not have such a legendary experience as such a person.

He had subconsciously sat down.

Chen Zhong was old, but he limped and took anthracite to burn it. A slight heat wave came to him. He grinned and said, "I can't bear to burn the heating. It's better to have this coal, but the old man is not afraid of the cold. Those who have been in Liaodong feel much warmer at any time when they arrive in Beijing. It's different for guests, so don't be frozen."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded with WeChat and felt the old man's kindness.

After pausing, he stared at Chen Zhong again and said, "Where are you in Beijing, how are you doing in Beijing?"

Chen Zhong suddenly felt sad.

After a while, he sighed and said, "It's different when I arrived in the capital. I had relatives in the capital, but no one cared about anyone. At that time, I was old and had poor legs and feet. What kind of errands could I do? Later, I worked as an updater in Qingpingfang. I stayed up all day and went out at night. I couldn't make any money every month and I barely served three meals. Look, this house was rented out, because it was simple, so the price was still cheap."

Emperor Hongzhi frowned and looked concerned: "You don't have a son?"

Chen Zhong shook his head.

Before, he was a military household, but no one was willing to marry his daughter to him. Although he arrived in the capital, who would like to be a disabled person?

Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "But I see you invested nine taels of silver in Ruyi Money House."

"This is..." Chen Zhong paused: "This is the silver that works hard. There are seven taels and three coins in Jinzhou and Dangping Jianzhou. The young man dared not spend a single son, and kept it. There are still one taels and seven taels and seven coins. It is the savings of more than 20 years. At that time, they said that silver could produce silver. The young man didn't believe it, but later he couldn't resist the people around him who made money, and they all talked about this benefit... The young man was still moved and invested in it with this little family and savings. He never thought that the killer of Thousand Knives was worse than the Tatars and the Jianzhou people."

Speaking of this, Chen Zhong's eyes turned red and he couldn't help but wipe his tears.

When he was young, Chen Zhong was also a man. When he heard that he looked red when he was fighting in Liaodong, he knew that he had also been passionate.

But now, he is already in his lingering years. Thinking of the situation, tears could not help but fall in his turbid eyes, and he couldn't help sobbing: "I heard that people ran away, and I suddenly felt hopeless in this life, so I thought... It's better to die clean, the way of heaven is unfair... I'm going to say that at that time, the old man didn't think about getting back the money, but just thought about it... Anyway, I don't know tomorrow, and I die if I die. The only regret is that I didn't die in Jinzhou or Liaodong with my robes. I have a name and name in the book of merit. I keep this useless body, and I will suffer such sins when I get old..."

A trace of unnatural flashed across Emperor Hongzhi's face, and he did not dare to touch Chen Zhong, so he staggered his eyes.

Chen Zhong covered his face and stubbornly let go: "But how could I know, hey... Emperor... the emperor actually caught the one who killed thousands of swords, released the list text, and asked everyone to take the documents to get the money back. I heard... families like us have returned all the money in full, but those wealthy families have only returned 60% to 70%... I also heard the news that in the palace... there are many royal relatives who have invested a large sum of money. The emperor was particularly kind and sympathized with the benefits of our common people. It would rather the emperor and the relatives themselves and their relatives have returned less money and suffer some losses, and there are many of us common people..."

Speaking of this, Chen Zhong's mouth couldn't help but tremble, and was so excited that he couldn't speak. He lowered his head and was sad and happy: "Your guest... You don't know. You can't believe it when you hear this news. When the old man really got the money back, he realized... it was not a dream. You, the old man was holding the money, and when he was holding the money, he thought that even in Jianzhou and Jinzhou, even if the old man was injured and had been a cripple all his life, it was worth it. This life was worth it. The old man was outside the pass, and he was desperately trying to defend the court and the country, the capital, and the nobles who were defending themselves, although he was usually arrogant, this time he never owed the old man."

Emperor Hongzhi suddenly felt a little wet in his eyes and fell into a long silence.

Zhu Houzhao shook her curls and couldn't help but feel awe.

Fang Jifan lowered his head and looked thoughtful.

The court did not owe you any money, you were so lucky.

If I had broken one leg, I would roll up the bed and go to the Daming Palace to eat his mother and drink his mother so that he could keep him for the rest of his life.

At this time, Chen Zhong changed his smile and continued, "When the money was returned, I had a little support for this life. Haha, speaking of this neighbor, when I heard the old man talking about the things about Jianzhou and Jinzhou, everyone felt impatient and talked a lot. Now, when everyone listened to the old man's old man and Jianzhou again, when they heard the good news from the army, they all applauded. Everyone knew the matter and knew that the court would not ignore us, the emperor and the nobles, even though they could not see us, they still had our hearts."

Emperor Hongzhi felt a thrill.

His eyes closed slightly.

This sentence...is too shocking for him.

The so-called court is the people in the world who manage it.

But do people in the world really have the same heart and virtue as the court?

All the people have their own thoughts. For these common people who work at sunrise and rest at sunset, the court is too far away and the emperor is too far away. Jinzhou and Jianzhou are even far away in the sky.

They don't care about these things, nor do they care about the people and things far away from the sky.

But……

Only this time, the return of the stolen goods... made many people suddenly feel the same as the court and began to understand the benefits and difficulties of the court. This... is a sign of unity and morality.

Emperor Hongzhi said with a faint look: "When I was young when I was Liting in Chenghua, I was still impressed. Many troops were sent to the capital. When I came back, many people were in rags and they suffered."

He held his hands on the charcoal basin, felt the heat in the charcoal basin, and felt warm, and then said, "As for the return of the stolen goods this time, I feel ashamed..."

I heard Emperor Hongzhi say that he is ashamed.

Chen Zhong looked at Emperor Hongzhi with gratitude.

Emperor Hongzhi claimed that he was from the Xishan Money House. He respected the people from the money house. Chen Zhong said earnestly: "No, the one who should be ashamed of is the little old man. He was deceived by the little old man himself. He was deceived by the little old man. It was all his fault. Thanks to you, if it weren't for you, we... would have to die. Yes, I heard that the palace and many nobles in the palace only refunded 60% of the money. The public was spreading this matter. Is this true?"

When Emperor Hongzhi heard this question, he finally found a little bit of anger in his eyes and said in a proud tone: "Of course, I lost more than 800,000 taels in the palace."

"Ah." Chen Zhong said in surprise: "So many, Zunke... How did Zunke know?"

Emperor Hongzhi looked at him with a certain look, stood up and said, "I will lose that 800,000 taels!"
