Ming Dynasty man

282 Marriage
"Jimin is back, get up quickly!" Yuan Keli handed the child to Shen Ying, pulled up Li Jing and said with a smile: "The wife who knows you is Mo Ruo's wife. Said that the first thing you do when you come back is to come to see me as a teacher. Hahaha, it seems that the two of them really guessed right."

"Students are unfilial and make the teacher tired. How can we not see the teacher first when we come back?" Li Jing said hurriedly.

Yuan Keli smiled and waved his hands and said, "You are fine, and Ying'er and Huiyu are fine too! After you left, they came to serve me every day. Hehe! I am so blessed! I took in two daughters in my later years. Still dear!"

"Father, this is what a daughter should do. What's more, my husband is your student, and we serve you as a filial piety for my husband!" Shen Ying laughed.

Yuan Keli laughed loudly and said: "The thing that honors me the most is that I gave birth to these two little things. I am happy every day when I see these two little guys. Jimin, you haven't seen these two little guys yet, come on!" Come and see, it's much more fun than An Guo's childhood!"

Li Jing smiled wryly when he heard the words, saying that the common people love Yao'er, Yuan Keli's performance is too obvious, he used to like what Anguo likes, but now that he has a small one, he immediately put his attention on the young one.

Two or three-month-old babies can't tell who they look like, but the two children are carved in pink and jade, especially the way they tie their little hands to grab Yuan Keli's beard is really cute, no wonder Yuan Keli likes it so much.

After teasing the child for a while, Li Jing handed the child to Shen Ying and Zhu Huiyu and said, "Cao Wenzhao's wife has brought the child, and she should be home soon. You two should greet Madam Cao well when you go back, don't neglect her." her."

The two knew that Li Jing valued Cao Wenzhao very much. When Mrs. Cao came, it was not a matter of neglect or not, but to make Mrs. Cao a family member.

At the same time, the two also knew that Li Jing must have something to talk to Yuan Keli, so they hurriedly congratulated Yuan Keli and Li Jingfu, then took the child, turned and went into the back room.

Gently waving his hands to the two ladies, Li Jing turned around and helped Yuan Keli sit down, then poured Yuan Keli a cup of tea: "Sir, what do you think of this matter?"

Yuan Keli took a sip from the teacup, pondered for a while and said: "In my opinion, General Cao is determined to follow you. He is afraid that you will be suspicious, so he sent his wife and children to Pingyang Mansion."

Li Jing nodded slightly, sighed and said, "Cao Wenzhao is being paranoid, but that's fine, with me, he doesn't have to worry about the safety of his family."

Yuan Keli nodded lightly, and after a while suddenly said: "The emperor sent someone to visit your child, do you know?"

Li Jing was startled: "When did it happen?"

Yuan Keli said: "Half a month."

Li Jing nodded silently. Based on the distance and time, it seemed that the Battle of Datong had just ended, and as soon as the victory report arrived in Beijing, Zhu Youjian sent someone.

Seeing that Li Jing was silent, Yuan Keli murmured and said: "Jimin, there is something strange about this matter. The emperor sent people all the way to Pingyang Mansion, but he didn't give any orders. He only rewarded the two children with something and went back. Yes. During this time, I have been thinking about this matter, and I think the emperor may have a plan for your child."

"How do you say that?" Li Jingqi asked.

Yuan Keli said solemnly: "Afterwards, I asked Ying'er. The imperial envoy seemed to treat the two children indifferently, but he spent most of his time watching the second girl very carefully. He also asked about the birth date of the second girl. Ordinarily, the third boy should be valued more."

Li Jing hesitated for a moment and said: "The girl was born to Ying'er, and Ying'er is the main wife, so it shouldn't be a problem to value the second girl, right?"

Yuan Keli shook his head: "The prince is six years old, I suspect that the emperor has the idea of ​​marrying you."

When Li Jingwen heard this, Zhu Youjian was always worried that he would rebel. If his daughter became a princess in the future, as the father-in-law, he would have to keep his son-in-law's throne.

Shaking his head, Li Jing smiled wryly in his heart, why did Zhu Youjian focus on these useless things?
After pondering for a while, Li Jing suddenly smiled and said: "If the emperor wants to marry me, I think it's better to marry Princess Kunxing (Princess Changping) to Anguo. They are about the same age."

Yuan Keli laughed when he heard that, Li Jing seemed to be joking, but the meaning revealed in his words was extremely conceited. The meaning of this sentence was actually that Zhu Youjian wanted to get married and had to marry his daughter.

At the same time, another meaning was revealed, that is, marriage is acceptable to Li Jing.

After chatting for a few words, Li Jing took out the regulations for setting up the Rumors Department written by himself from his cuffs and handed it to Yuan Keli, "Please read, sir, this is a regulation that I have been thinking about, please help me check it."

Yuan Keli took it, opened it and looked at it carefully.

After reading it, Yuan Keli pondered and said: "It's just right to let those speech officials in the court do such a thing. However, I am worried that after these people control the Dibao and Tangbao, all the news in the world will come from them. It's going to be a mess."

Li Jing nodded slightly. He is still very clear about the importance of public opinion. No matter what dynasty or generation, whoever controls the direction of public opinion is equal to whoever controls the situation.

However, this is not what Li Jing considered. The main purpose of setting up the Rumors Department and the Facts Department is to make people tell the truth rather than good things.

If no one in a country speaks the truth, it will not be able to gain the sincere support of the people.

Gently tapping the paper in Yuan Keli's hand, Li Jing said: "Sir, this matter is easy to say, but it is very difficult to do it, especially now that we can't control the situation of the court at all, and the emperor can't listen to us." , and I don’t know whether this thing is feasible for the time being, so I plan to try it out in Pingyang Mansion first, and get some experience first.”

Yuan Keli pondered for a while, then nodded lightly and said: "Jimin, you are getting more and more stable in your work now. Okay, let's start a pilot project in Pingyang Mansion. Pingyang Mansion has opened a school for nearly three years, and we will learn from it. Select a group of people with good academic performance, and let this group of people run the newspaper you mentioned."

After a pause, Yuan Keli continued: "The functions of this department are somewhat similar to those of the Civil Affairs Administration. I think it should be merged into the jurisdiction of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and let Jun Yang be in charge of the chief. Jun Yang is serious in his work and can give him more courage. "

"Okay, the Bureau of Civil Affairs, the Bureau of Rumors, and the Bureau of Facts all play a supervisory role. To put it bluntly, they are supervisory officials. In the end, they all fall on the head of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. They can be integrated into a team for better management. Um... let Zhou Hengchen Write a memorial to the emperor and recommend Junyang as the co-magistrate of Pingyang Mansion. In the name of the imperial court, it will be more legitimate to do things." Li Jingjing nodded.

Yuan Keli smiled: "In this way, even if the emperor knows that our government orders are incompatible with the imperial court's, but after all, he is still under his rule, and he will feel much more comfortable."

Li Jing nodded slightly.

It is not so easy to set up a department. Manpower and material resources must be kept up, and there are too many things to prepare.

After finalizing the details with Yuan Keli, Li Jing ordered people to call Yu Leting, Fang Fang, Yang Liufeng and others.

Fang Fang and Yang Liufeng are in charge of the factory and the academy respectively. This time, a large number of people will be employed and a special printing factory will be set up. Naturally, these two people are inseparable from the preparatory work.

Yu Leting is the future chief executive of these departments, and all the details must be clearly explained. He is also one of the chief examiners when selecting candidates, so naturally he must be notified in place.

These three people are all from practical backgrounds, and their comprehension ability is far better than those nerds who only know how to read. After listening to Li Jing's explanation, they immediately understood the usefulness of the newly established department, and at the same time knew that this was Li Jing's preparation for the future. .

After understanding Li Jing's purpose, the three were very excited.

These three people are relatively clear about Li Jing's ambitions, but Li Jing has not made any special moves in the past few years, and they don't know what Li Jing is thinking, why he has not done anything when he has the strength to win the championship .

Only now did they know that Li Jing was planning to make a complete change for Daming.Because the action was too big, Li Jing had to find out a set of mature experience, and at the same time, prepare enough talents to come out.

Otherwise, even if he enters the court and takes charge of the court, there will be no one under his command.

Moreover, Li Jing used to focus on military affairs, economy and popular sentiment.

Now the overall situation of Pingyang Mansion has been decided. After a winter, the plague has completely disappeared. Due to Li Jing's series of strict measures, Pingyang Mansion has almost survived the plague. The people under the rule of Pingyang Mansion are grateful to Li Jing Feelings can be imagined.

Now Li Jing's prestige in Pingyang Mansion is much higher than that of the emperor, if Li Jing ascends to the top, all people will surely follow.

In addition, after Li Jing led his army to Datong, Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng, who fled into Taiyue Mountain, seized the opportunity of Li Jing's absence and led their troops to escape from Shanxi, joined other bandits in Henan, and then entered Hubei and other places.

At this point, Li Jing has no more ties and can devote all his energy to the layout.

When Li Jing had reserved enough manpower, it was time for him to act.

Thinking that once Li Jing takes charge of the court, all of them will be reused, and the blood of the few of them is surging for a while, and they are immediately full of energy.

As soon as these three people got excited, they directly put Yuan Keli and Li Jing aside.

Yuan Keli and Li Jing looked at each other and smiled wryly, so they had to drink tea while hiding.

After drinking a cup of tea, Yuan Keli suddenly smiled and said, "A few months ago, your uncle came to see me."

Li Jing was taken aback: "My uncle? Shen Qing or Shen Yi?"

"Shen Yi!" Yuan Keli said.

Li Jingning thought about it for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "Are you here for your ancestors and ancestors?"

Yuan Keli nodded, sighed, and said, "Your father-in-law is too cautious. It is said that he can arrange the affairs of Jizu and Jizong himself, but he just doesn't open his mouth. I guess, this time it is Shen Yi When I returned to Hongshanling, I found that my two sons were still working as coolies, and I couldn’t bear it, so I came to beg me.”

Li Jingwen listened silently. Back then, Shen Jizu and Shen Jizong were arbitrarily adjusting tax rates and oppressing the nearby villagers. Li Jing was so angry that he wanted to kill them. Because of Shen Zheng's begging, he spared them from death. .

　With the support of Haiqing who has a monthly pass in his hand, every click, recommendation, and reward from you is a great encouragement to me!
