(Second Update!) ）

Yu Hengjing half-squinted his peach blossom eyes, remembering the scene when the young official came to visit.

Last time, the young official sent a letter without a seal. This time, he sent a message.

That letter is the fulfillment of Yu Hengjing and Yu Shitai. This news is difficult, Yu Hengjing and Yu Shitai's difficulties.

The officials of the Yushitai are honest and honest, and it is common for them to be difficult or something, and Yu Hengjing has never been afraid.

Therefore, Jiangnan Mansion, he has to go to it anyway. As the prefect of the Imperial Historical Observatory, this is his duty that cannot be shirked.

From top to bottom, since the entourage officials of the political hall have been decided, the rest of the entourage officials must also be selected one after another.

Because of the dispute between Du Pre and Han Shiyuan, the scale of the emperor's tour this time was smaller than any previous time, just to avoid the loss of labor and money.

This time, the entourage was set at about 300 people, including the accompanying officials and servants, but not including the tiger soldiers who accompanied the guards.

That's a pretty thin number, so to speak. At this point, the emperors of the previous dynasties of Dading were different from the previous dynasties, or they were also the places where Dading was better than the previous dynasties.

The scale of the previous dynasty's patrol is very large, and the number of patrols is very large, the history books all record that "the west expedition to the east, there is no respite, the six palaces and civil and military officials are often more than 100,000 people, but it is not the provincial party to show righteousness." ”

The trip of the non-provincial party to show righteousness is the negative evaluation of the history books. Sometimes, there is a fine line between patrolling and tyranny. The grasp of this degree is particularly important. We must know the people's feelings. And you can't work the people and waste money, so the court has a quota of three hundred.

Such a scale cannot be regarded as extravagant.

Of the three hundred, the main ones were officials, attendants, and scribes, and the number of officials was no more than fifty. These 50 officials came from five provinces, nine temples and five prisons, and in fact, each official office produced only two or three officials, and they did not have much influence on court affairs.

Who are these 50 officials?

Gu Zhan and Zhang Mingde met, both in order to select a suitable accompanying official. All racked their brains. Because this thing is really not easy to do.

Following the emperor on tour is a recognition and an honor. For a lot of officials. This is a worthy stroke in their officialdom career.

Furthermore. Travel with a car. It means that there is a chance to appear in front of the emperor. For civil officials, if there is an opportunity, they can write a certain line of poetry or a certain pair. If you can get the emperor's appreciation, it means that the officials are prosperous.

For military generals, the same is true. The emperor patrols the fortunate, and the generals protect him, which gives him more time to get along with the emperor. Feelings are all from everywhere, if you get the emperor's favor, are you still worried about your official career in the future?

Therefore, in order to be able to follow the emperor's tour, the officials tried their best to let the chief officials of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites be selected. For a while, there were more officials who went to visit the Gu family and the Zhang family, and they all prepared heavy gifts.

In the face of such a purposeful visit, Gu Zhan's consistent principle is to refuse, and most of the posts are not accepted. But there are some officials' posts, but Gu Zhan can't help but accept them

These officials either have great power and reliance in the court, or have deep ties with the Gu family. For example, the post of Zhang Guiling, the secretary of the household department, and the post of the servant Cui Shao, similar to these officials, he wants to meet.

He took the posts, and Fu became busier than ever. Invisibly, Gu Yan was also busy. Ushering in and maintaining friendship has always been an important responsibility of the wife and concubine of the family.

Emperor Chongde's visit to the south of the Yangtze River made Gu Yan a little in a trance. In the previous life, the epidemic in Runzhou was raging, and Runzhou was close to Jiangnan Mansion, and the people of the whole country avoided it, of course, there was no emperor visiting Jiangnan.

She learned from Shen Du's mouth that the Shen family had a plan in Jiangnan for a long time, and the target was Qinyi, the Duke of Chengguo.

The matter planned by the Shen family is the matter of Jiangnan Silver Treasury, and the specific details are not said to Gu Yan, but they are very confident.

Shen Su and Shen Du's actions, Gu Yan was very clear. They said that they were very confident, which means that the matter is complete, and they are waiting for the emperor to visit Jiangnan.

With Gu Zhan here, Du Yu is there, and Shen Du is among the accompanying officials, which is expected.

As for the Jiangnan Silver Treasury...... Gu Yan didn't know much, and his biggest impression was that in the eighteenth year of Chongde's Sanchu Palace Change, Jiangnan Silver Treasury was to provide financial support for Zhu Xuanming's rebellion. In other words, Jiangnan has always been the backing of Zhu Xuanming's family, and it is a very reliable backing.

Time has changed in this life, and what happened in the previous life may not be accurate. But Zhu Xuanming has such a strong backing, she must remind Shen Du.

In the evening, she received news from Fu Xuan, thinking of the current situation of the Chengguo Mansion and Zhu Xuanming's personality, she thought of a possibility, and her trance gradually became clear.

When Shen Du came to Tongyin Xuan, Gu Yan told Shen Du about this possibility, which was a reminder and a help.

Shen Du looked at Shen Du in amazement, once again shocked by her sensitivity to the situation...... and admiration. Although Ah Bi is in the boudoir, she knows a lot, including the unpredictable situation of many officials, she can grasp it.

For example, he ignored the possibility she said at the moment.

"Ah Bi, you said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will prevent the emperor from going to Hangzhou? The prince intends to be in the Jiangnan Silver Vault? Shen Du said.

His plan in Jiangnan has been pushed countless times with his father Shen Su, and he has also listed all possible situations. Qin Yi would ask Zhu Xuanming for help, which was expected by them.

However, according to the secret guard of the East Palace, Zhu Xuanming did not agree to Qin Yi's invitation. Previously, they also lamented that Prince Dao had indeed become smart and did not take this disaster into account.

But after listening to Ah Bi's words, he realized that maybe they had missed something. It's not that the prince has become smarter, but that the prince's ambition is too big, so big that it is beyond their expectations.

Ah Bi said that the secret guards of the Fu family found out that Tang Xungang, the general of Jiangnan Wei, had just accepted a concubine and loved it very much.

This is news from the army, since the Fu family is much better informed than the Shen family. It is the news that Tang Xun accepted a concubine, which can be no more small, which can fully explain one thing: the relevant officials of Jiangnan Silver Treasury are not panicked.

Tang Xun is the general of Jiangnan Wei, and it is impossible for Jiangnan Yinku to bypass him. As far as Shen Du knew, Tang Xun also had half of the Jiangnan Silver Treasury in his hands. The emperor is about to visit the south of the Yangtze River, Tang Xun is still in the mood to take a concubine?

But he is indeed a concubine, and he loves it tightly, which is unusual.

Shen Du's face gradually became serious, and at this moment he didn't know that a large net laid in the East Palace had already covered his head.
