As the general framework of the new dynasty was determined, before the big reward of the next day, Xu Changqing's mansion, including the marriage of Xu Changqing and Zhu Yujiao, was the first to be discussed.

No way.

If you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil, and salt are not at home.

At this time, although the new dynasty was beginning to embark on the track, it was in ruins, and it was not an exaggeration to say that the treasury was empty and could starve rats to death.

At this time, although Xu Changqing and the model army did not have too many people, only more than 15,000, there were still 30,000 auxiliary soldiers and people.

Coupled with tens of thousands of war horses, mules and horses, which are eaten and chewed every day, all of them are hung on the imperial court accounts, and the grandfathers of the model army cannot be allowed to eat too poorly and be dissatisfied, what an astronomical amount is this?

If you don't send these uncles away quickly, I'm afraid that everyone will drink the northwest wind during the Chinese New Year this year......

This also makes today's group of civil officials and nobles in Nanjing extraordinarily united, and everything is the best for Xu Changqing.

Xu Changqing didn't say anything, Shi Kefa and Ma Shiying quickly reached an agreement to give Xu Changqing a mansion of more than 50 acres near Fucheng Bridge where Li Wenzhong, the Duke of Cao Guogong, lived.

Including Zhu Yujiao's dowry, everyone was also generous one by one, shouting, 'You can't lose face in the heavenly family if you say anything.' ’

Xu Changqing was a little amused by this.

However, after thinking about it for a while, Xu Changqing did not embarrass them, and readily agreed.

Soon, everyone reached an agreement, and the marriage date of Xu Changqing and Zhu Yujiao was officially determined, which was set on September 29 at the end of the month, which is also a homonym that can be 'long and long'.

The second issue is the era name.

According to the convention, next year will be called the 'first year of Hongguang'.

But the situation is different at this time.

The imperial court has lost the era name for almost a year, so it simply directly determined this year as the first year of Hongguang.

In this regard, Xu Changqing also agreed.

Even in the future, all kinds of brainwashing are essential, but at this time?

When Xu Changqing and the bigwigs reached an agreement, the big reward officially began.

However, the rewards at this time are not comparable to yesterday's, they are all official positions below the squire and some small nobles, Xu Changqing just needs to show his face.

Xu Qihai happens to be among them.

After a while, a group of them came in, and at the end of the crowd, he saw Xu Changqing at the head of the right at a glance, and the whole person was about to explode with excitement.

He had known about Xu Changqing's cattle for a long time, but when he really saw Xu Changqing in this Chengtian Palace, in this palace of the highest level of the Ming Dynasty, he understood how big this gap was......

Even his grandfather Xu Hongji can only be ranked behind Xu Changqing......

Finally, I don't know how long I waited, but it was finally his turn.

Xu Qihai hurriedly knelt on the ground in a panic and respectfully accepted the order.

Not surprisingly, Xu Qihai was canonized as an 'auxiliary general' by the new dynasty, but he still did not have a clear position.

Xu Qihai subconsciously looked at Xu Changqing's upper, and said in his heart, I must find an opportunity to have a good chat with this uncle of my family.

In a few days, this uncle will marry Princess Kunxing, and he will have to bleed profusely.

Perhaps seeing Xu Qihai's inappropriateness, Xu Changqing suddenly smiled at this time, and said: "Emperor, everyone, at this time, the minister suddenly remembered some things. I Nanjing, although there is a Yangtze River natural barrier, but these days the minister also went to the riverside to see, the defense is seriously insufficient. I heard that in the area of the Yangtze River estuary, there are still many river bandits. The minister thought that several new camps could be set up in the section of the river embankment and the mouth of the river to ensure that our capital was foolproof. ”

"This ......"

As soon as Xu Changqing said this, the originally stable hall suddenly became low and restless, and no one could touch Xu Changqing's meaning.

The new emperor Zhu Cihong also became nervous all of a sudden, could it be that Xu Changqing wanted to garrison troops in Nanjing?

This......

Although Xu Changqing did not accept the proposal to reopen the Governor's Office of the Five Armies at this time, he was the first person in the military in essence.

Zhu Cihong didn't even dare to communicate with the ministers for a while, thought for a moment, and hurriedly said: "Haichenghou, what do you mean......"

How could Xu Changqing not know everyone's worries?

couldn't help but smile: "Emperor, what the minister means, these military camps, the regulations don't need to be too big, just block a few key fortresses." There is no need to have too many people, one battalion, two or three thousand people is enough. Chenjiapo Village outside the east gate of Chenjiapo Village, close to the river, the terrain is dangerous, but the mountain is flat, can be used as a pilot! ”

Xu Changqing has chosen a good place, and he said it so clearly, how dare everyone directly disobey Xu Changqing in public?

Shi Kefa said with a smile: "Haichenghou has excellent vision, this is very true. You can set up a pilot first, and if it is successful, you can roll it out. If there is a flaw, we will remedy it. ”

Ma Shiying and everyone were not far behind, and they echoed one after another.

Zhu Cihong saw that Xu Changqing did not open his mouth, but only started with a 'pilot', he was also a little relieved, and said with a busy smile: "Master Hou, then what do you mean, when will this pilot start, and who is better?" ”

Xu Changqing smiled and arched his hand: "Emperor, Xu Qihai, the grandson of the Duke of Wei, is young and steady, down-to-earth and loyal and filial, recommended by the ministers, Xu Qihai, can be a guerrilla and establish this battalion." It just so happens that this place is located outside the Jiangdong Gate, and it can also be named 'Jiangdong Camp'. ”

"Huh?"

After a while, Xu Qihai shuddered, this is what Xu Changqing meant, and the whole person didn't know how to react.

Xu Hongji was also a little dumbfounded.

What's going on?

When did this little second son catch Xu Changqing's line?

Xu Changqing actually threw out such a big olive branch at such a time......

Shi Kefa and Ma Shiying's faces also changed, Xu Changqing's sudden move was a bit ruthless!

Not to mention anything else, it was a big hole in their short-lived alliance in an instant.

And that's just the beginning.

In the future, this pilot will surely become the guide for the entire imperial court to 'bite'. Fire ......

The point is, you can't say no at all......

Zhu Cihong also touched something at this time, but it was definitely not as far-reaching and more overall than Shi Kefa, Ma Shiying and others thought, seeing that it was just a guerrilla job, and it was for the Wei State Mansion, and he thought that Xu Changqing was taking care of the clansmen, so he nodded with a smile and said: "Master Hou is very good, so let's do it." ”

"Guerrilla Xu, thank you."

Here, the little eunuch hurriedly came over to remind, Xu Qihai came back to his senses, and was busy kowtowing desperately with tears: "Minister Xu Qihai, thank you Lord Longen, long live my emperor, long live......

However, although he thanked Zhu Cihong, he frequently glanced at Xu Changqing, and simply regarded Xu Changqing as a reborn parent.

Don't think that the noble lineage can do whatever you want!

This is not the afterlife, there is family planning, and there is only one child in the family.

Xu Qihai has an eldest brother above, three younger brothers below, and more than a dozen cousins!

Rao is a great family in the Wei State Mansion, but it can only make him glamorous on the surface, but it is extremely difficult to really enter the office.

What kind of work did he do in Nanjing before?

is just in charge of Liu Lun and a few of their money-lending 'big brothers'.

This thing doesn't seem to be short of money, but ~, the big head has to be handed over to the family, and it has to be audited every quarter, not to mention, in the people, chrysanthemums are going to be scolded.

And Xu Qihai has also received a good education since he was a child, how can he be willing to be like this all his life?

At this time, Xu Changqing openly led him to the right path in this Chengtian Temple, and directly pushed him up, which is definitely no less than the grace of his parents to give birth to him!

Looking at Xu Qihai's excited appearance, Xu Hongji suddenly couldn't help but glance at Xu Yunzhen.

The two grandfathers of the north and south were a little indescribably silent for a while.

Their old Xu family, why did they have such a demon.

After the reward was completed and out of the imperial city, Xu Qihai couldn't wait to wash the chrysanthemums and give them to Xu Changqing.

Xu Qihai, who was crying like a child, Xu Changqing smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Virtuous nephew, your words are redundant." If your uncle and I saw that you were not successful and incompetent, how could I entrust such an important matter to you? Do a good job, show your skills, don't let people look down on you, lose our old Xu family! ”

Xu Qihai hurriedly wiped away his tears and nodded desperately: "Uncle, don't worry, if the little nephew can't do something, the little nephew will jump into the river, and you must not be embarrassed by your uncle!" ”

……

On the side of the imperial city, after going down to the court, Zhu Cihong was also thinking repeatedly about why Xu Changqing promoted Xu Qihai so abruptly on such an occasion.

But after thinking about it for a long time, he still didn't have a clue, he was still young and had too little experience.

It happened that Empress Zhou sent someone over to call him to dinner, and Zhu Cihong was clever and hurriedly rushed to Kunning Palace to ask his mother.

When she came to Kunning Palace, Queen Zhou's mood was obviously good.

She has not yet been officially canonized as the queen mother at this time, and she will have to wait for some time for the court to run first.

The mother and son chatted briefly, and Zhu Cihong told the matter.

"This ......"

Queen Zhou's willow eyebrows suddenly tufted, tightly tangled.

Zhu Cihong didn't dare to speak for a while, so he could only look at her carefully.

After a while, Queen Zhou had already explained the matter, and couldn't help shaking her head and laughing: "I thought I had looked at Xu Changqing high enough, but I didn't expect that I still underestimated him!" Xu Changqing is really a tiger and wolf! If it can't be used by my Ming Dynasty, it will become a great disaster in the future! ”

"Queen Mother, what does this mean?"

Zhu Cihong was still a little unable to turn around, and looked at Queen Zhou in fear.

How could he not know that Xu Changqing was terrifying? But at this time, Da Ming will never be able to leave Xu Changqing.

Otherwise, once there is an accident on Xu Changqing's side, the iron cavalry of the Qing army will be forced to the riverside in the blink of an eye.

Seeing that Zhu Cihong couldn't understand for a while, Empress Zhou didn't get angry, but patiently and carefully explained: "Emperor, do you think, why did Xu Changqing promote Xu Qihai so abruptly? And in the name of the pilot? ”

Zhu Cihong is a clever man, and he has already captured more things, but he is still missing a line, and he hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, you mean ......"

Queen Zhou couldn't help but smile when she saw that Zhu Cihong had begun to be transparent: "Promote Xu Qihai in public, if you are Xu Qihai, will you die for him Xu Changqing?" ”

Zhu Cihong hurriedly nodded.

Queen Zhou couldn't help sneering: "But who is Xu Qihai?" He is the descendant of the Duke of Wei! Xu Changqing promoted Xu Qihai, what did the other children of the Wei Mansion think? What will the other nobles think? Also, eighty percent of this pilot will be supported by the Wei State Mansion, and ninety percent will be successful. Then next, Xu Changqing is gone, every family, don't they have any ideas? Can they be twisted into a strand? ”

"This ......"

Zhu Cihong's cold sweat was already pouring down, and he trembled and said: "Queen Mother, this, isn't this the second peach killing the third soldier......"

"Huh."

Queen Zhou sneered: "What is it that two peaches kill three soldiers?" Xu Changqing, this is digging a bottomless pit! Even if he will leave Nanjing soon, I don't know how many people, even if they don't want to die, they will jump in desperately! If Bengong guessed correctly, this is just that Xu Changqing has just started to make a move! ”

“……”

Zhu Cihong was already trembling, and he suddenly felt that in front of Xu Changqing, he was almost stripped naked and mentally retarded......

How else to play?

Seeing him like this, Empress Zhou's complexion also eased, and she said with a smile: "Emperor, you are a good boy." Although he is not more shrewd than Xu Changqing, he is much more tolerant and benevolent than him. Xu Changqing is indeed about the same age as you, but what he has experienced is far more complicated and tragic than yours. Don't be discouraged, you are the Son of Heaven and the master of my Ming Dynasty, and you still have a long way to go in the future! In the past, you didn't like to learn those things that the teacher taught you, and the queen mother didn't blame you. Now, you know, how much to learn? ”

Zhu Cihong had gradually calmed down with Queen Zhou's warm tone at this time, and knelt on the ground in a regular manner: "Queen Mother, my son has been taught!" In the future, my son will definitely study hard, think hard, fight for, and regain the land and people lost by my Daming, and rejuvenate Daming! ”
