第五十二章王妃召见（上）(5/5)

                                                                                                            因军功觐见时，他于御前大谈兵法，深合周厚照心意，遂被留在身边，周厚照曾嬉称他为‘当世夏候敦’，确是当世之猛将也。有一次，姓周的在豹房内戏耍老虎。
                                                                                                                                                                谁知平日温顺的老虎突然性情大发，直扑姓周的。他忙呼身旁的钱宁救驾，钱宁畏惧不前，倒是江彬及时将老虎制服。
                                                                                                                                                                周厚照虽然嘴上逞能说‘吾自足办，安用尔’，心里却是十分感激。此后，江彬逐渐取代钱宁而得宠。
                                                                                                                                                                武宗更是毁京城中豹房西侧的鸣玉、积庆二坊民居，大肆营建‘义子府’，供江彬等人居住。这样的三人智勇组合，怎不令宁王忧心呢？“
