Daming Yinghua

Chapter 390 Jirang can make a fuss

After the Jingzhe, the spring breeze felt warm.

In the middle of the year, Zheng Haizhu and Wei Zhongxian were walking on the brick path of the Forbidden City towards the Wuying Palace under the sun.

As soon as they passed through a small spring garden with lush flowers and trees, they saw a red-robed official striding off the bridge in front of them.

The fierce and powerful momentum of the tiger seemed to shake the white marble lions on both sides.

"Mr. Yang." Zheng Haizhu greeted him and saluted.

Yang Lian, who came out of the Wuying Hall to face the Saint, stopped walking and his eyes, which were squinted by the sunlight, widened a little.

"Starting from today, I will no longer serve in the Inspectorate. Miss Zheng, don't you know?"

Zheng Haizhu met the bearded man's righteous and awe-inspiring gaze: "It's my fault, Master Yang. Before the beginning of spring, my words to the Holy Shang were confirmed so quickly. The Holy Shang and the elders really valued talented people. "

Wei Zhongxian on the side, his eyes were turning faster than the chicken feathers on the weather vane.

He looked at Yang Lian and then at Zheng Haizhu.

There are no secrets in the forbidden palace.

Previously, news came out from the Xinuang Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace in the north that Mrs. Zheng gave the idea to Lord Long live to send Yang Lian to Liaodong as an economic planner. The reason was that Yuan Yingtai, the governor in front of him and the one who carried the strategic plan, was originally a worker. The officials of the ministry can only make do with water control and building houses, but they are really unable to command the war. Thanks to powerful generals such as Po Tingxiang and Zou Chuxian guarding the east, the Tatars cannot keep up with military supplies and food. Otherwise, I am afraid that there will be another outbreak of Ming and Jin Dynasty last year. A large-scale battle.

At the end of the year, Yuan Yingtai passed away, and the positions of governor and manager became vacant.

In Wei Zhongxian's perception, Liaodong was a place of right and wrong, with the brutal and brutal Jianzhou Tatars and the entangled veteran generals. God often did not allow the fields to have good harvests. If you go there and become a frontier official, you can do whatever you want. If you ask your political opponents to find out what is wrong with you, even if you don't get beheaded by the Tatars, you will lose your official position in the Ming Dynasty.

Wei Zhongxian then felt that Zheng Haizhu was still a woman, petty-minded and vicious. It was obvious that even after more than a year, she was still angry and wanted to retaliate against Dong Lin, as if Yang Lian, a general, was sidelined.

When he met Yang Beard in the ban today, Wei Zhongxian muttered, "Hey, these two people who don't agree with each other are going to open fire."

Unexpectedly, Zheng Haizhu admitted happily, and Yang Lian's posture did not become more aggressive.

"Miss Zheng," Yang Lian held her sleeves behind her back, and although her brows were furrowed and serious, her tone revealed a frankness that was willing to hear the details, "Why do you recommend me to patrol Liaodong?"

Zheng Haizhu did not beat around the bush: "First, when Mr. Yang was the imperial censor, he wrote several times to advise on strategies to raise wages. It is easy to know the soldiers, but it is difficult to love them. Mr. Yang will not treat me harshly, the official of Ming Dynasty and Liaodong;

Secondly, the current councilor of Liaodong, Wang Huazhen, is a member of your Donglin family. The court wants to promote him to governor, so there should be no disagreement between you two;

Third, Master Huang Zunsu and Ma Xianglin wanted to preside over the reconstruction of Daning Town, and Wang Huazhen had always advocated appeasing the Mongolian Lin Dan Khan. You three Donglin sect members, from Daning to Guangning, from Mongolia to Liaodong, can make good plans to unite Mongolia to fight against the Jin Dynasty;

Fourth, Cui Jingrong, the official of the Ministry of War, is old and is about to become an official. Although Zhang Quan knows the military, he cannot be transferred back from Nanjing because of General Ma's old affairs. There is a strong wind in Beijing, and the imperial court wants to revive Xiong Tingbi. Mr. Xiong visited Liaodong many years ago and is familiar with local affairs. He has a good relationship with your senior Yu Yuli from Donglin. I don't believe that those young people who are just afraid of the world being in chaos, relying on rumors like farts, will make Master Xiong ignore the safety of the Ming Dynasty and restrict Donglin like you who guard Liaodong just because he is from Chu. "

As soon as Zheng Haizhu stopped to take a breath, Wei Zhongxian said with a smile as if he was trying to get close to her, "Madam, you are right, heroes cherish heroes."

Yang Lian's dagger-like gaze glared at him, making Wei Zhongxian tremble.

In this time and space, Zhu Changluo survived, and there was no such thing as the "Palace Relocation Case" in history. To this day, Yang and Wei have not actually interacted with each other in depth. Wei Zhongxian only sighed secretly in his heart, how could a civil servant with this big beard look more frightening than a commander of the Imperial Guard like Luo Sigong?

Yang Lian said solemnly: "Are you the Eunuch Wei whom Eunuch Wang arranged to take care of the eldest son of the emperor?"

Wei Zhongxian leaned over his shoulder: "Junmen is right."

Yang Lian turned to Zheng Haizhu: "Is this Eunuch Wei the same one who took tens of thousands of taels of silver from Prince Fu and returned to Beijing?"

"Exactly, asking King Fu to ask for money may not be easier than asking the Tatars to ask for life." Zheng Haizhu said.

Yang Lian clicked his tongue and felt the deep meaning in the woman's eyes.

The year before last, when Zhao Nanxing wanted to drive her away from the emperor and persuade the moderate Zou Yuanbiao, he mentioned this eunuch surnamed Wei, saying that the two had a close relationship and were afraid of causing trouble for the court.

But now it seems that Eunuch Wei has done nothing extraordinary. The Inspectorate also checked and found that the silver shipped back from Luoyang did indeed go into Taicang of the Ministry of Revenue, and was not sent to the emperor's inner treasury by these two people to seek credit and favor.

Yang Liansui nodded: "Then I would like to thank you two first. Miss Zheng has done something in Lu and Eunuch Wei in Luoyang, but in fact, in the end, Liao's salary will be paid. I will take my leave."

After Yang Lian's back disappeared, Wei Zhongxian let out a "chi" sound.

"It's disrespectful to the lady to say the same thing to a girl."

Zheng Haizhu looked at Wei Zhongxian: "I'm not the Queen Mother. What can I do if I want these civil servants to pay lip service to me for weeks?"

Then he said: "Old Wei, Yang Bearded is a nice person. It's not difficult to figure out. He is much better than those vicious swordsmen and pen officials. If we want to make a future in the Ming Dynasty, we should get along well with such ministers."

Wei Zhongxian took a few steps forward, touched the stubble on his chin that he had finally pulled out, and said sadly: "Well, Donglin is fighting against Qi Chuzhe anyway, and it has nothing to do with me. Madam, except for that bastard in the Li Jian That’s it.”

The two continued to go north and came to Yikun Palace.

In the second spring of the second year of Taichang, the Ming Empire changed the course of history. There was one less Li Xuanshi and one more Li Guifei in the harem.

Empress Xili, who raised the eldest prince Zhu Youxiao, was granted the title of noble concubine as she wished and lived in the Yikun Palace of Concubine Zheng.

In January, the emperor's eldest son Zhu Youxiao was also crowned prince, and the process of selecting the concubines of the East Palace officially began. Wei Zhongxian took the initiative to request orders on the grounds that he was familiar with Henan, and went to Zhengzhou, Luoyang and other places to escort beautiful women to Beijing.

Today, Wei Zhongxian came specially to listen to Concubine Li, a woman who claimed to be the mother of the prince, to be lectured.

After Ke Yinyue's stupid move to frame Zheng Haizhu and the sixth princess was exposed, the emperor also lost his temper with Concubine Li. Concubine Li didn't like Wei Zhongxian for a while.

Only because Eunuch Wei had a charming smile and a sweet mouth, and the most important thing was that he did not bring all kinds of rare things from outside the palace to honor the noble concubine, Concubine Li gradually started to have a good attitude toward Wei Zhongxian again.

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry. I'm bringing Mrs. Zheng with me. She's waiting outside the palace. She wants to see your Majesty and tell her about the important matter of repairing the land in Jisheng."
