Chapter 758: Les Miserables

In Jin Yiwei's execution room, more than a dozen prisoners were tied to a bench.

Today the people arrived relatively neatly, and all of Ji Gang's confidantes were here.

Seeing these bloody prisoners, none of the people present changed color, and they were used to it for a long time.

Ji Gang sat by the edge of a pot of charcoal fire, and said with a smile: "This group of people have confessed, and we have made a contribution. Come here and bring in the wine and vegetables."

The food and drinks were brought in like water, and one of the dishes was hot pot, but the firepower of the small charcoal stove was not enough.

Ji Gang smiled and said: "The weather is getting colder, it should be warm, get some oil and boil it."

Zhuang Jing hurriedly said: "Then get some fire oil."

Fuel oil is a strategic material, but there is no shortage of Jinyiwei.

A big wooden barrel was brought in by a skinny Jin Yiwei. He lowered his head, scooped up a small amount of fire oil with a spoon, and poured it into the charcoal stove. Suddenly, black smoke rose and the flame blazed violently.

Pang Ying said with a smile: "This fierce fire oil is not bad, but the smoke and smell are a bit strong, and it is difficult to extinguish it when it is ignited."

Ji Gang squeezed his hands and said: "Everyone has worked hard during this time, come on, sit down, let us brothers have a good drink."

After everyone sat down, Wang Qian said in surprise, "My lord, is this the freshest dish?"

Ji Gang nodded, "Let's have a meal, then Fang Xing won't be rich, come on, drink!"

...

The autumn sunset is beautiful, it feels golden and golden, shining on the eaves, as if a piece of rice that is about to be harvested is planted on it.

But Fang Xing was not in a good mood.

In Taisun's mansion, a child whose height was only below Fang Xing's ribs, dressed in shabby clothes, and was obviously overweight was kneeling on the ground in a daze.

Fang Xing went in and saw this scene and asked, "Who is this?"

Zhu Zhanji was not there, Du Qian said, "This is a sergeant from Yingzhou Guard."

"A sergeant from Yingzhou Guard?"

Fang Xing picked up the child who looked at most seven or eight years old, and asked, "Who asked you to be a soldier?"

The child said blankly: "My lord, there is no one at home..."

Fang Xing looked up, just in time to see Zhu Zhanji coming in.

Zhu Zhanji waved his hand, and sighed after sitting down: "One of the child's father and uncle died in battle in the grassland, and the other died in Jiaozhi. According to military law, those people went to his house to check, but the family left A 70-year-old grandfather and him were taken down, and finally he was hooked away."

Fang Xing's heart was shocked, he touched the top of the child's head and asked, "What's your name?"

This might be the youngest sergeant in Ming Dynasty and said nah-na: "My lord, the younger one is called Yue Baoguo."

This person's parents must not be illiterate, the anger in Fang Xing's heart was rushing around.

"Is grandfather still there?"

Yue Baoguo said: "It's still there."

Zhu Zhanji said: "His grandfather, Yue Xingbin, learned about this and wrote a letter to the Ministry of War."

Fang Xing said sadly in his heart: "What about the Ministry of War?"

Zhu Zhanji shook his head and said: "Lord Jin is very sympathetic, and has already written to Grandpa Huang to expel his family."

The military household system of Ming Dynasty, once you are checked, as long as you die or cannot perform military service, the military will immediately contact the local government to continue to check the men in your family to supplement.

And this rule is so strict that it is almost unavoidable except for bribery and escape.

Fang Xing smiled bitterly and said: "Unless the sergeant of Ming Dynasty is a minister of the Ministry of War, he cannot be expelled. It depends on whether His Majesty is extrajudicial."

"I want to go to the memorial!"

...

After receiving Jin Zhong's memorial, Zhu Di sank like water after reading it.

"Your Majesty, please enter Xinghe Bo's memorial."

The eunuch carefully presented the memorial.

Zhu Di took it casually.

"...The two members of his family sacrificed their lives for the country. Isn't this loyal and good? However, Zhongliang has been scattered to this point. Isn't it chilling? Your Majesty, will there be anyone willing to serve the country after this?"

"Asshole!"

Zhu Di threw the memorial out, got up and circled on it.

Thinking of Fang Xing's last memorial,

Its purpose is clear: change the check-box system!

Zhu Di was a little annoyed, no, it should be shame and anger!

If this matter gets out, those common people will regard Gou Jun as fearful, where can they find the source of troops?

"Let Zhanji deal with this matter."

Zhu Di knows that change is not easy. With the enemy still existing on the northern grasslands, the reform of the military system must be cautious, otherwise, if there is a repetition, Daming will be in danger.

"Shuzi is ignorant!"

...

"Your Majesty, Lizi is ignorant!"

Huang Yan left proudly, and Du Qian graciously sent him out, leaving Fang Xing and Zhu Zhanji behind.

Zhu Zhanji said awkwardly: "Brother Dehua, this Yue Baoguo will be placed in the academy, right?"

Since she is the Empress of Zhongliang, she deserves preferential treatment.

Fang Xing nodded in agreement, and then said helplessly: "Military system reform must be cautious, I understand this truth, but it is one thing to be cautious, and another thing to be silent. Everyone delays, waits for decades, then Time is the real hard to return!"

Seeing Du Qian came back, Zhu Zhanji interrupted Fang Xing with a dry cough, and said, "I'll send someone to pick up his grandfather right away. Brother Dehua, you can take this child home."

So Fang Xing had an extra tail on the return trip.

When he arrived at the academy, Fang Xing called Ma Su and introduced him, "His name is Yue Baoguo, and he will be a disciple of the academy from now on. You can arrange someone to take care of him until his grandfather arrives."

Yue Baoguo turned around and looked at Fang Xing, his eyes were filled with horror.

"grown ups……"

The immature voice made Fang Xing a little sad, he said: "Don't call me some kind of adult here, call me the head of the mountain."

"The head of the mountain."

Yue Baoguo tugged at the sleeves that had already covered his hands, and said timidly: "The big... the mountain leader, the young ones can do the work, they can brush horses, grass and feed, and they can also wash clothes."

"This is an academy, you will be a student in the future, don't be petty, just call yourself a student in the future."

Ma Su didn't know the origin of this kid wearing a ridiculously large military uniform, but since it was arranged by Fang Xing, he would definitely take care of it.

Yue Baoguo looked at Fang Xing with a hint of dependence in his eyes.

This is a sensible and sensitive child. From the conversation in the Taisun's residence, he keenly realized that the most reliable person is Fang Xing.

Fang Xing comforted: "You can stay here with peace of mind. Someone will take care of your life every day, and Xi will also help you. If you have anything to do, go to the professors."

Yue Baoguo nodded, and after Fang Xing turned around, he knelt down on the ground, stared straight at Fang Xing's back, choked up... tears streaming down his face!

Fang Xing heard the voice, but didn't turn his head, and strode away hard-hearted.

A child who was a few years old was drafted into the army, God knows what he went through!

The sergeants of the local guards had long been free labor for the officials and local gentry. For such a young child, Fang Xing could imagine the pain he went through.

At a loss, parting, and then suffering.
