Liu Mingzhi looked at Li Zheng who was sitting on the dragon chair with a faint smile in shock!

Not only Liu Mingzhi was stunned, but the civil and military officials were also surprised, not knowing what the emperor had in mind!

Who doesn't know about the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, and who doesn't know? On the big red man in front of the emperor, one of the most favored courtiers can no longer find anyone to compare with except for Liu Mingzhi, the Duke of Dingguo!

It's just that the Duke of Dingguo, who is so favored, is going to be demoted by the emperor to the bitter cold north as an official!

Compared with the prosperous Dalong Jingshi, Yingzhou and Fuzhou, although they are border cities, not only is life in the border pass incomparable, but the comfort level is even worse than that of Jingshi!

According to the law, the governors of the two provinces should be the feudal officials of the second grade, perhaps a position that others cannot reach in their lives!

However, that's someone else, Liu Mingzhi is now in the position of the left waiter of the household department, and he is also a member of the second grade!

Who doesn't know the land of the Imperial City, the first product of the Jingguan!

It seems that the governor of the two provinces is the governor of the two provinces, but in fact it is no different from the bright rise and the secret descent!

Especially when there is a problem with the local officials' governance of the people's livelihood, the emperor is the first to blame the local governor, which can be said to be another layer of change compared to the left servant of the household department!

Many officials secretly wondered to themselves, could it be that Dingguo Gong's behavior of fishing for three days and drying nets for two days made His Majesty dissatisfied?

Could it be that the idea that he and the others had guessed before was wrong, His Majesty's acquiescence to Dingguo Gong going to court at any time was not to dilute Dingguo Gong's influence on the court!

It is to give the Duke of Guo an opportunity to reflect on himself, but the Duke of Ding Guo does not know His Majesty's deep meaning, which makes His Majesty's tolerance to the limit!

Many old foxes subconsciously glanced at Tong Sansi, the right minister, and secretly wondered why Tong Xiang just said that something happened in Yingzhou Mutual Market, and His Majesty wanted Dingguo Gong, who had just come to the court, to go to northern Xinjiang to serve as the governor of the two provinces!

Could it be that His Majesty has some unknown plans with Tong Xiang?

Tong Sansi noticed the eyes of his colleagues, and glanced at Li Zheng with a slight frown!

For a while, he couldn't guess the emperor's intentions, could it be that His Majesty borrowed the knife of the old minister to "kill" the sharp spirit of the Duke of Dingguo?

If so, wouldn't Dingguo Gong resent the old man?

All of a sudden, the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military thoughts were different, which can be described as mixed tastes, and many officials who had a good impression of Liu Mingzhi sighed secretly!

Sure enough, it is like a tiger with the king, and the rise and fall are only between the king's thoughts!

Long En's prosperous Dingguo Gong is like this, what will we do in the future?

In just a moment, the civil and military officials thought about it in a complicated way!

Liu Mingzhi clenched his fists tightly, with an inexplicable look on his face!

"The birds are all gone, and the good bow is hidden? The cunning rabbit dies, and the lackeys cook? Did I do something that made my father unhappy, so I was sent to the Northland as an official! ”

How do civil and military officials think, Liu Mingzhi also thinks!

"Father, the son dares to ask Yingzhou, what is the big thing in Fuzhou that needs to be dealt with by the son?"

"There is no one in the border market now, all because of the war between the Huyan Royal Court and the Shi Bisi Royal Court and Wu Guogong in Heshuo!"

"The matter of the mutual market involves taxes, which is the business of your household department, but Jiang Aiqing, the secretary of the household department, and Miao Aiqing, the right waiter, are old, and I can't bear to see him tired and traveling thousands of miles, so the matter of the mutual market can only fall on you, the young and talented left waiter!"

"Especially the mutual market is a matter under the jurisdiction of Zuo Shilang, so this matter belongs to you!"

"The matter of the mutual market should not be careless, and the matter of taxation is related to whether the training of 300,000 iron horsemen will be affected!"

"If there is a problem in the mutual market, there is no tax follow-up, and the treasury is empty and there is no support on the matter of training war horses, it will make all these years of painstaking and diligent government work in smoke!"

"Therefore, I hope that you can personally go around and deal with the affairs of the mutual market in northern Xinjiang to a successful conclusion, and the burden on you is very heavy on this trip to the north!"

Li Zheng's every sentence is expressed without leakage!

The mutual market is the duty of the household department, and taxation and trade are the responsibilities of Zuo Shilang, so it is a matter of course for Liu Mingzhi to go to northern Xinjiang!

Liu Mingzhi was silent for a moment, although Li Zheng's words were reasonable and well-founded, but Liu Mingzhi still couldn't understand Li Zheng's decision in his heart!

Although the matter of mutual market is the matter of the household department, the solution to the affairs of northern Xinjiang only requires the household department to guide the business travelers to northern Xinjiang to start trade with the two countries.

There is no need for the governors of the two provinces in northern Xinjiang to get involved!

The Ministry of Household only needs to dispatch a Household Department Langzhong or even a member of the Wai Lang to deal with this matter!

Why not drive a left-handed servant on the second grade!

Liu Mingzhi sighed secretly, his mind was racing! Mougins recalled the conversation between him and Qinglian after returning from the Western Expedition in his mind again!

"Lian'er, look at it, maybe in the near future, the princes and ministers who are in the second class will be transferred out of the capital by my father and the emperor in various names!"

"Why, husband?"

"The art of the emperor, the emperor degraded, the prince recalled, gather people's hearts!"

Recalling these in his mind, Liu Mingzhi carefully speculated about Li Zheng's abnormal behavior in the past two years, and his heart immediately understood!

It's just that I didn't calculate it by a thousand calculations, and the first person to pave the way for the prince turned out to be himself!

"Alas......."

Liu Mingzhi sighed silently and bowed: "Son-in-law Liu Mingzhi obeys the order!" ”

Seeing that Liu Mingzhi agreed, Li Zheng had a satisfied look in his eyes!

"Liu Aiqing, you are a young man, and the young man is in two classes with high spirits! The bitter cold in the north, not as prosperous as the capital, but also face the matter of unsuitable water and soil, but you did not hesitate to agree to this matter, which shows that you are loyal to the community! ”

"My move is a helpless move, Jiangshan Sheji is related to the stability of the people in the world, you can't be careless, you are so loyal to the king, I feel guilty! I can promise you a condition that is not too much! ”

Liu Mingzhi licked his dry lips and hesitated for a moment to look at Li Zheng longingly: "Father, the north is so far away, and it is extremely inconvenient for the retainers to drag their families with their mouths, can you give 300,000 taels of carriage and horse fare?" ”

Li Zheng's face stiffened with a faint smile, and he faintly darkened!

"Three hundred thousand taels?"

"It's really not okay, 200,000 taels will do!"

"I don't have a tael of silver, and the governors of the two provinces have their own treasury for food and clothing, what do you want so much silver for?"

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty also looked at Liu Mingzhi who opened his mouth in disbelief, 300,000 taels of silver for the carriage and horse fare, Dingguo Gong really dared to speak!

Many low-level officials even secretly pondered that it would be good if they could have 100,000 taels of silver for their extremely poor life, and what kind of official would they be if they had 300,000 taels of silver, wouldn't it be beautiful to return to their hometown and be a rich man!

"Then reward your sons with a hundred dancing girls and a thousand altars of wine!"

"Maidome? Wine? ”

"That's right, my father can't even give up this! You can't let your son not even have a pastime to entertain after dealing with official duties, right? Do you have to feed the grass for the oxen to plow the land? You can't treat your son as an agency who only knows how to work hard and doesn't know what fatigue is! ”

Li Zheng's darkened face put on a relaxed smile again.

Looking at Liu Dashao, he looked unhappy if he didn't give Maiji wine, and there was indescribable relaxation in his eyes!

"Yes, I will reward you with 100 Jiangnan singers, 100 dancing girls in the Western Regions, and 2,000 jars of various aged wines!"

"Thank you, father Emperor Longen, long live!"

"Don't rush to thank you yet, I'm not done yet!"

"Please forgive your sins!"

"Wine is a poison that pierces the intestines, and the color is a steel knife that scrapes bones, and it is too much! I reward you for your pastime, don't indulge in beauty, delay official business, be greedy for drinks, and delay your business! ”

"Erchen knows, thank you for your father's teachings!"
