This is also for Wei Bao, because behind Wei Bao's grandfather, there is also the official title of a minister of the governor of coastal defense, the title is capped, and there is also the real power of the yamen, not to mention that more than half of the officials in the capital are promoted by Wei Bao, and actually control the Yanguan Yamen Metropolitan Procuratorate and the procuratorial organ Dali Temple, Wei Bao is equivalent to both the throat and the judiciary, and the weight of the officialdom in the capital has already surpassed Zhang Weixian.

Zhang Weixian is respected and belongs to the family because of his deep qualifications and the official title of the family with such a prominent and historical prestige as the British government.

Wei Bao is completely different, Wei Bao is popular.

Wei Bao didn't let himself get drunk, he socialized for more than an hour, and most of the time he took a sip, even if someone with good deeds caught him for a toast, Wei Bao also excused himself with sleepiness.

In addition, Zhang Weixian and Zhang Zhiji helped persuade him, so Wei Bao didn't drink much.

Because he wanted to rest early, as soon as he returned to the president's mansion, Wei Bao took a bath and slept under the service of several maids who stayed in the mansion.

The next day, the scene was very huge.

Not only was the Huangji Hall full of people, but even the large square outside was full of officials above the fourth grade in Beijing.

said that there were many Beijing officials, Wei Bao really believed it this time.

There were six or seven hundred people, who usually only get money at home and don't work, and all of them came to watch the ceremony.

There is nothing else to do today, specifically to talk about Duke Wei Baosheng.

First of all, starting from the Battle of Ningyuan, when it comes to the complete victory of the border army, Lord Wei only took 5,000 men and horses to break 150,000 Jiannu!

Wei Bao only reported 70,000, there was no false report, they were all Gaodi, Wang Zhichen, the Ministry of War, and then the cabinet, every time he passed through a person's mouth, he reported an extra 20,000 or 30,000, and finally 70,000 became 150,000.

Moreover, Wei Bao only sent more than 30,000 Jiannu heads, which also became 120,000 killed and 30,000 seriously injured.

All in all, in this battle, the Ming Dynasty won a complete victory, and all the main forces of Jiannu were reimbursed in the first battle, which is good, but the main force of Jiannu really does not have so many people.

Before commending Lord Wei, the first people to be commended were Wang Zhichen, Gao Di and other officials.

These people, Wei Bao does not feel exceptional, because he reported it.

Wang Zhichen served as the Jiliao Governor and the title of the Secretary of the Military Department, and Gao Di was promoted to the Secretary of the Military Department, not two of the Military Department of Shangshu, Gao Di was responsible for daily work, and Wang Zhichen was appointed as the Secretary of the Military Department It is customary to show that Jiliao's defense is important.

Although Wei Bao broke Jiannu, but Jiannu was not completely destroyed, Yizhou City, Guangning City, Shenyang City, these important cities are still in the hands of Jiannu, Jiannu's territory has not shrunk, so Jiannu is still the biggest hidden danger of the Ming Dynasty.

The most surprising thing for Wei Bao was that Wei Liangqing was named Su Ningbo because of his meritorious recommendation!

Lao Tzu was recommended by him Wei Liangqing?

This made Wei Bao very depressed, and he felt that half of his duke's aura was taken away in an instant.

Wei Bao knew that this was a move by Emperor Zhu Youxiao of the Apocalypse to appease Wei Zhongxian.

Wei Bao suddenly remembered again, it seems that in the original history, the only duke in Zhu Youxiao's hands was Wei Liangqing.

It seems that in the second half of the year, Wei Liangqing can get the opportunity to be crowned a duke because of the construction of the three major halls.

This is completely unbearable for Wei Bao, if that's the case, his title of Duke of Fuguo is more like a joke, as if he is the same as Wei Liangqing, he got it by nepotism, not his talent.

Others will definitely say that Duke Wei Baofeng is so great, Wei Liangqing didn't do anything, isn't he a duke, and he didn't rely on slapping Wei Zhongxian and the emperor's sycophants.

Zhu Youxiao's relatives sealed Liangqing Su Ningbo, gave a coupon, and gave Zhuangtian a thousand hectares.

After that, it was Wei Bao's turn, and Zhu Youxiao said in a loud voice with a red face: "Wei Aiqing, you are loyal to the country and have made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty, and I am now crowning you as the Duke of the Auxiliary Kingdom, rewarding 10,000 acres of fertile land and 10,000 taels of gold!" I hope you will make persistent efforts and make new contributions to the Ming Dynasty. ”

Wei Bao hurriedly knelt down to receive the order and thanks, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Weichen must serve the Ming Dynasty and His Majesty. And took the edict from the emperor, and received the canonization decree from Wei Zhongxian.

Then Wei Bao banged his head.

Last time, when Wei Bao was the marquis, the emperor rewarded him with 3,000 acres of fertile land.

Wei Bao doesn't want any fertile land, as long as the place is big.

Moreover, the good fields in the suburbs of Beijing and Beizhili are all owned.

So Wei Bao chose a large area of vacant land in Tongzhou and Xianghe.

Wei Bao just needs to be connected together.

Officials who do things can also be people, and since Lord Wei wants inferior land, he simply gave more than 20,000 acres.

Anyway, it's all ownerless wasteland, waiting for someone to develop it, whatever Wei Bao does.

Wei Bao got another 10,000 acres of land this time, and according to the last practice, the territory in the Xianghe area can be expanded by 70,000 or 80,000 acres!

Taken together, there can be nearly 100,000 acres of land.

It should all be connected to Hejian Province.

What is the concept of 100,000 acres of land in the Ming Dynasty.

The ruler is generally about 32 centimeters.

If calculated in this way, one mu should be more than 614.4 square meters.

One square kilometer is equal to one thousand meters multiplied by one kilometer, which is equal to one million square meters.

100,000 mu is equal to more than 61 million square meters, which is equal to more than 60 square kilometers.

It also means that Wei Bao has a large territory of more than 120 miles in the Xianghe area.

Such a huge manor is much larger than the capital.

Wei Bao likes to put a wall around the perimeter, and it becomes a small Weijiazhuang.

It won't be long before this piece of Wei Bao's territory will be known as the Auxiliary Prince's Grain Grange.

There is such a large piece of land, which is convenient for the tun army to tuntian, and can form a natural fortress in the key position of Beizhili.

If Wei Bao really had the intention to rebel, he didn't even need to use the Shandong Army and the Shanhaiguan Army, and the Fuguo Gongzi Grain Grange would be able to dispatch an army of 10,000 people to attack the Beijing Division.

In a large area of more than 120 miles, it is normal for tens of thousands of farmers to have it.

Everyone looked at Wei Bao's young appearance, and they all sighed that people were more popular than dead people, and Wei Bao, a poor boy in the township, rose in just one year, in fact, it was less than a year.

Wei Bao only entered the official career in April of the fifth year of the Apocalypse, and now it is only the first month of the sixth year of the Apocalypse, in fact, it has only been nine months, and he has gone from a seven-rank official to a grandfather and duke of a very human minister.

In order to show his love, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but gently pat Wei Bao on the shoulder twice.

Wei Bao is also a drama spirit, he has long hidden cool oil in his hand, he quickly wiped his eyes with his hand, and immediately burst into tears, and looked at Zhu Youxiao silently.

Zhu Youxiao was greatly moved, Zhu Youxiao has been the emperor for so long, but he has not seen the ministers crying, especially those Donglin Party ministers, who are always in tears at every turn.

But Zhu Youxiao has never seen a person cry so sadly, crying so really.

Those ministers cry, they know that they are acting at a glance, and it doesn't rain when it thunders, and sometimes Zhu Youxiao wants to laugh.

Now Zhu Youxiao was moved by Wei Bao, and hurriedly hugged Wei Bao's shoulders and said, "Okay, okay, Wei Aiqing, you are now the Duke of the Kingdom, the Auxiliary Duke of the Kingdom, Da Ming Zhuliang, pay attention to your manners." ”

When Wei Bao heard this, he hurriedly wiped his tears, but his eyes were still red, and his tears couldn't stop flowing, "Weichen obeys the order." ”

Zhu Youxiao smiled: "Okay, don't cry, I understand Aiqing's loyalty." ”

When all the ministers saw the emperor and Wei Bao embracing each other, they whispered, and they all secretly thought, Wei Bao will not be His Majesty's male favorite, right?

The Ming Dynasty was a relatively open period, and the ministers played too many tricks, and even popular to raise male actors, so there would be this kind of thinking.

If Wei Bao knew that the ministers thought so, he would probably be disgusted to death.

Fortunately, Wei Bao has made meritorious achievements, and everyone is jealous, and they will not spread this kind of rumors casually, because it is not against Wei Bao, but against the emperor, looking for death.

Wei Bao got down the royal stairs and stood back on the train.

Originally, Wei Bao was a marquis, and he was already standing high enough, but he could only stand in the second row.

Now Wei Bao is different, Wei Bao is a duke, ranked as a superb, and even has to stand in front of Gu Bingqian, the first auxiliary minister!

Wei Bao now has to stand with the British Duke Zhang Weixian and the Duke of Chengguo Zhu Chunchen, ranking third.

No, it should be the fourth, and Zhu Youzhen, who is still the king of faith, is also here.

Zhu Youzhen is difficult to get out of the house, and he usually avoids trouble in the house, for fear of giving Wei Zhongxian, who wants to trouble him, to tell the truth, and today the emperor asked him to come, so he had to go to court.

Wei Bao is one year older than Zhu Youzhen, Wei Bao is 16 years old this year, and Zhu Youzhen is only 15 years old this year.

When Wei Bao first met Zhu Youzhen last year, Zhu Youzhen was still a child, and this year's Zhu Youzhen is already a lot taller, similar to Wei Bao's height, or even slightly taller than Wei Bao, and he is already an adult.

Under the reminder of the eunuchs and the courtesy of the officials, Wei Bao came to Zhu Chunchen and stood still.

Zhu Chunchen said in a low voice: "Congratulations to the Duke of Fuguo, and congratulations to the Duke of England." ”

British Duke Zhang Weixian tried to keep calm, but he still couldn't help but raise his mouth in joy, Wei Bao stood in his row, and he was even happier than his own promotion.

"Thank you, thank you Brother Chunchen." British Minister Zhang Weixian said with a smile.

Zhu Chunchen said with a smile: "I was going to your house to drink yesterday, but I heard that there were too many people who went, and the Qianmen Street was blocked, so I didn't go, and let people send him to He Yi, my brother knows?" ”

The relationship between these princes, even the counts and the marquis, was very good, even closer and better than that between the feudal kings.

Due to his special status, the vassal king could not interact with the courtiers casually, and even the vassal kings could not move around casually.

The lords are different, most of them are rich and noble people, they have nothing to do after eating, or they have inherited some important positions, and they still belong to the officialdom sequence, not to mention moving around, running is nothing, just pay a little attention, don't say the wrong thing, don't be too prodigal.

Of course, if you're not interested in being an official like Zhang Zhiji, it's okay to be a prodigal wreck, and don't commit any criminal cases.

"Congratulations, Duke Fuguo." Zhu Youzhen's face was flushed, and he was going to congratulate, but he held back for a long time before he spoke.

Obviously, Zhu Youzhen was still a very introverted person during this period, even introverted to the extreme, a little stammering, unwilling to meet people's eyes, unwilling to make contact with people.

If it weren't for Wei Bao's military exploits and getting the title of duke, Zhu Youzhen wouldn't have planned to say hello to Wei Bao.

Zhu Youzhen's personality is introverted, self-serving, indecisive, and very sensitive, and it is very difficult for others to enter the heart of this kind of person.

"Thank you for the letter of the king, the letter of the prince can call me Wei Bao, we met last year, and I am still very impressed by the letter king." Wei Bao's eloquence is excellent, and he has long wanted to associate with King Xin, but he has no chance.

Wei Bao has been filming the senior agents of the Statistics Bureau to enter the side of Zhu Youxiao and Wei Zhongxian from the beginning of the layout of the people around Zhu Youxiao, and the layout is just as early.

Zhu Youzhen pursed his lips and smiled, as if he didn't plan to speak anymore.

If it is a person who reacts faster and talks more, he will definitely congratulate the British duke, you should think that Wei Bao is the son-in-law of the British duke, and the British duke is next to him, why not congratulate together.

But Zhu Youzhen didn't expect it, it seemed that Zhu Youzhen was very unfamiliar with the relationship between the DPRK and China, and it felt like a prisoner who was suddenly released and had to return to the prison immediately.

Wei Bao secretly thought, such a person will be the emperor of the great empire in the future, it is really inappropriate.

In terms of personality, Zhu Youzhen is indeed far worse than Zhu Youxiao.

Wei Bao couldn't figure out why the two people who grew up together had almost exactly the same growth environment, so why the personality gap was so big.

Although Zhu Youxiao likes to spend all his time at work, he is a talkative and cheerful person, unlike Zhu Youzhen, who is gloomy and gloomy, which makes people feel very uncomfortable.

"Anything else? I have nothing to do to retreat from the court, and I want to invite the auxiliary prince to dine with me today. Zhu Youxiao said.

It's not a big deal, and everyone doesn't want to talk about some trivial things on this kind of happy day when the auxiliary prince is promoted.

And I don't know why, since Wei Bao followed the early dynasty today, and Wei Bao was promoted to the Duke of Fuguo, everyone felt a supreme deterrent, and it seemed that the imperial power had been greatly strengthened at this moment.

How powerful Wei Bao is, Wei Bao's strength is all added to the imperial power.

So everybody will feel that way.

With Wei Bao here, they all felt a little depressed, and they didn't dare to speak casually, as if they were afraid of causing trouble.

There are also many people who seem to speak in front of Wei Bao, and they will seem to be very incompetent, seeing that Wei Bao went to Liaodong, Liaodong was beaten by Jiannu for more than ten years and immediately disappeared, what face do they have to say some trivial things in front of Wei Bao, isn't it in vain to make people laugh at their incompetence.

"Wechen has a book." British public Zhang Weixian said.

Everyone looked at the British public Zhang Weixian in surprise, and they didn't know what Wei Bao's father-in-law was going to say on this happy day.

Zhu Youxiao said: "The British public, please speak." ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen is old and weak, and I sincerely ask to resign from the post of Governor of Beijing." British public Zhang Weixian said.

All the courtiers and Zhu Youxiao were surprised, and only a few people who understood such as Wei Zhongxian seemed to have expected Zhang Weixian's thoughts.

People who understand know that Zhang Weixian's move is not to make people think that Wei Bao has too many troops, for fear of arousing unnecessary suspicion.

People who don't understand still think that Zhang Weixian is looking at his son-in-law and becoming a national prince, and wants to hand over Jingying to his son-in-law.

This is the important weapon of the Ming Dynasty, the prominent Beijing camp, and the elite of the Ming infantry army, how can it be handed over casually?

Wei Bao was already in charge of the Shandong Army, and if he got the Beijing camp, wouldn't it be possible to lose nearly half of the world's soldiers and horses?

What's more, Wei Bao still has the Daming Water Master in his hand.

Zhu Youxiao thought so, so he was a little unhappy, "British duke, it's not appropriate to talk about this at this time, I know, let's talk about it later." ”

Zhang Weixian said: "Your Majesty, please finish speaking, the old minister thinks that Chengguo Gong is suitable to take over the affairs of the Beijing camp." ”

As soon as Zhang Weixian said this, there was another uproar, and everyone understood Zhang Weixian's true intentions, and they all gave a thumbs up, admiring Zhang Weixian, and throwing away Jingying, which was nothing more than for his son-in-law, this is a public heart, and everyone can see Zhang Weixian's love for his family.

Zhu Chunchen hurriedly said: "British duke, aren't you rushing ducks to the shelves, Jingying has been in charge of the British government for generations, and it has always been good, everyone can see it, your British duke supported His Majesty to ascend the throne, from the dragon, you are not old now, you recommend me, what will the people of the world think of us as the government of the country?" I don't have the skills to take it. ”

Chengguo Gong Zhu Chunchen is not a talented person, a typical old gentleman, that is, he pays a little more attention to the image than a typical gentleman like Zhang Zhiji.

As soon as they heard Zhu Chunchen speak, it was the same as listening to the farmers in the township, everyone laughed, and they all knew that Zhu Chunchen, the Duke of Chengguo, was such a person, and they would not think that Zhu Chunchen was disrespectful to His Majesty or disrespectful to Zhang Weixian.

Even Zhu Youxiao smiled and said, "British duke, you heard it, right?" I understand your thoughts, you are worried that your son-in-law Wei Aiqing will be promoted to the Duke of the Auxiliary Kingdom, and you are afraid that people are worried that the two of you will join forces and have too much power, I have no intention of doing so, no matter whether there are villains who slander or not, I will not doubt the loyalty of the Duke of Britain and the Duke of the Auxiliary Kingdom, don't discuss this matter, the Duke of Britain will be in charge of the Beijing Camp, I am very relieved! ”

"My Emperor is wise!" The courtiers began to shout slogans and sycophants at the right time, which were all shouted a lot.

It's just that in the past few years, Zhu Youxiao has rarely come to the court, and the dynasty is to let everyone see that he is very healthy, and his health is fine, not to come out to manage the government, so the emperor does not make decisions, and everyone has no chance to say this slogan.

Now that the emperor can make up his mind directly, everyone feels that the situation of the Ming Dynasty will change from now on.

Zhang Weixian listened to the emperor's words, and his heart was warm, there was nothing more comfortable for the minister than the trust of the Son of Heaven.

"Your Majesty's care, the old minister is grateful, the old minister is really for the sake of old age and weakness, and he is afraid of delaying the major events of the court, so he resigned, the old minister has made up his mind, and I hope His Majesty will understand." Zhang Weixian insisted.

All the courtiers and emperors, Wei Zhongxian heard that Zhang Weixian was sincerely saying this.

This makes many people use their brains, the governor of Jingying is a real power.

Whoever holds the position of the governor of Jingying is equivalent to controlling the Jingshi!

No matter how many soldiers and horses there are outside, it is not as influential as the governor of Beijing, who has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses on the outskirts of Beijing.
