Even if he knew what the problem was, Zhang Lingyang couldn't think of an effective solution for a while.

In fact, everyone knows that Zhang Lingyang's subordinates are unavailable.

After all, Zhang Lingyang is a newcomer, and the ministers of the DPRK and China have not yet finished getting to know each other, let alone others.

"Let's hold back for the time being!" Thinking like this, Zhang Lingyang instructed Xiao Fuzi: "Xiao Fuzi, you should allocate 200,000 taels of silver from the internal treasury to the Ministry of Industry now, and let it be sure to build the Heart Nourishing Hall within a month." ”

"Yes, the minion will do it!" As he spoke, Xiaofuzi wanted to retreat.

"Wait!" As soon as Xiao Fuzi turned around, he was stopped by Zhang Lingyang again, "You go and order someone to draw up a decree, and say that from now on, all localities will resume paying tribute to the palace." ”

"Yes!" Seeing that Zhang Lingyang had no other arrangements, Xiaofuzi retreated.

Not long after Xiao Fuzi retreated, a little eunuch came in and reported: "Long live Lord Qiyu, the eunuch Feng Xi Feng has something to see!" ”

"Feng Xi? What did he come to me for? Zhang Lingyang said secretly in his heart.

This Feng Xi, Zhang Lingyang has met once. Although this person is a eunuch, his appearance is very rough, nine feet tall, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a heroic spirit, he does not look like a eunuch at all, but more like a military general who has been in the army for many years.

And this Feng Xi's martial arts are indeed good, ordinary three or five people are his opponents at all, and his sword skills are even more impressive, which is very important to Zhang Lingyang.

Thinking like this, Zhang Lingyang said, "Let him come in!" ”

"Yes!"

After a while, Feng Xi bowed and walked in: "Slave Xiao Xizi knocks on Long Live Lord!" ”

"Get up!" Zhang Lingyang said, "Looking for me at this time, but what's the matter? ”

Feng Xi replied: "Go back to the Long Live Lord, the horses that were paid tribute by Wara yesterday have arrived, I don't know if the Long Live Lord wants to go and see it?" ”

"Oh? How could Warat pay tribute to my Great Zhou? In Zhang Lingyang's consciousness, for the Central Plains Dynasty, the nomads in the north have always been great enemies, so he asked.

Feng Xi obviously knew about the amnesia of the Long Live Lord, so he explained: "When the first emperor was the emperor, he made three expeditions to Warat, forcing Warat to submit to my Great Zhou, and since then, Warat has paid tribute to my Great Zhou every year a batch of horses, cattle and sheep. ”

"I know, but I don't have time today, so I won't go, and I will tell you to go down, and the horses that Wara paid tribute will be well raised, and I will go to see it when I am free."

Actually, it's not that Zhang Lingyang doesn't want to go, but he doesn't know how to ride a horse at all. I went to the Imperial Horse Prison, but I was only greedy, so I might as well not go.

"In that case, the minion has retired!" Seeing that Zhang Lingyang was reluctant to go to the Imperial Horse Prison, Feng Xi wanted to retire.

"Wait!" Calling Feng Xi, Zhang Lingyang asked, "I intend to let you experience the position of the commander of the East Factory, I wonder if you have this intention?" ”

The reason why Zhang Lingyang said this was because apart from Feng Xi, he could not find other suitable candidates to serve as the commander of Dongchang in a short period of time.

Besides, since Wang Qin's death, the post of admiral of Dongchang has been vacant.

Among the eunuchs in the twenty-four yamen, countless people sharpened their heads and wanted to drill up, but these people Zhang Lingyun looked at inappropriately.

Seeing Feng Xi today, Zhang Lingyang felt that compared with others, Feng Xi was more suitable for this position, so he suddenly asked.

Although the Imperial Horse Eunuch is the most powerful department among the 24 Yamen except for the Celebrant Eunuch, the position of Admiral of Dongchang is the most powerful position except for the Celebrant Eunuch who holds the seal. Moreover, the commander of the East Factory is often the eunuch of the master of ceremonies, if he can become the governor of the East Factory, it means that he is only one step away from the eunuch of the master of ceremonies, how can Feng Xi not be moved?

"The slave bows to thank the emperor for his grace!" Without thinking about it, Feng Xi knelt to the end, and kept kowtowing to the ground, and his forehead was blue.

The corners of Zhang Lingyang's eyes jumped even more, and he had to dissuade him: "Get up, just do a good job in the future!" ”

"As for the Imperial Horse Warden?" After thinking about it, Zhang Lingyang said: "There is Xiaofuzi as the eunuch of the imperial horse eunuch, and you will be in the position of the eunuch of ceremonies and a eunuch of the pen!" ”

The reason for this arrangement, Zhang Lingyang naturally has his own concerns.

The authority of the commander of the Dongchang factory does not need to be elaborated, just talking about the existence of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, the reason why it can become the second only to the celebrant is because the Imperial Horse Supervisor is in charge of the military power and is responsible for the dispatch of the two armies of Long Xiangwei and Tiger Xiangwei.

And Zhang Lingyang naturally didn't feel at ease about handing over all the military power to the same person.

Although he did not become a eunuch with the seal of the master of ceremonies all of a sudden, Feng Xi felt a little short in his heart.

But Feng Xi also understood that Zhang Lingyang's promotion of himself was already a great reward, and he was naturally grateful.

The reason why Zhang Lingyang did not promote Feng Xi to the eunuch of the celebrant and the seal was because he wanted to leave this position to an old and respected person, and at the same time, he didn't want to concentrate all the power on one person.

You must know that the power of the governor of Dongchang is already not small, if he concurrently serves as the eunuch of the master of ceremonies, it is very likely that the result will not be lost, after all, the eunuch of the master of ceremonies is the head of the eunuchs, known as the 'internal minister'.

And Sun Sheng, the old eunuch who was dismissed at the beginning of Emperor Zhao Chenxi's ascension to power, is a good candidate.

Sun Shengnai was the eunuch of the seal of the former emperor Yongkang, and he was well-known among the eunuchs.

It was only because he was cautious and not good at greeting, and was not liked by Emperor Zhao Chenxi of Tai'an, and Wang Qin said bad things about Sun Sheng from time to time in his ear, so that Sun Sheng was finally deposed and sent to Xuzhou to see the imperial mausoleum.

Thinking of what Xiao Fuzi had said to him, after Feng Xi left, Zhang Lingyang immediately ordered someone to go to Xuzhou to pass on Sun Sheng's return to continue to serve as the eunuch of the celebrant and the seal of the seal.

By the time all this was processed, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

Zhang Lingyang also felt a little hungry, so he ordered someone to pass the meal.

When he was eating, he saw a eunuch from Cining Palace coming to ask for a meeting.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother invites Your Majesty to go to Cining Palace in the afternoon, saying that there is something to discuss with you."

"You go back and tell the Queen Mother, and you will say that after lunch, I will go over." As he spoke, Zhang Lingyang did not stop his chopsticks.

In fact, the emperor's food is not very luxurious, but it is just four meat and four vegetables.

As for the taste, it's still good, after all, the chefs in the imperial dining room are selected from all over the country, so how can the craftsmanship be poor?

During the meal, Zhang Lingyang's mind was not idle, thinking about whether to gather chefs from all over the country to Beijing and hold a chef competition?

Thinking of this, Zhang Lingyang didn't have the heart to eat, so he asked the little eunuch serving next to him, "Is Xiaofuzi back?" ”

The little eunuch replied: "Go back to Long Live Lord, Grandpa Fu has not come back yet." ”

Zhang Lingyang nodded noncommittally and didn't say anything.

After all, this chef competition is not something that can be done in a day or two.

After lunch, under the service of the palace maid, Zhang Lingyang changed into a set of cloud purple regular clothes before going to Cining Palace.

When he came to Cining Palace, Zhang Lingyang saw that Empress Dowager Xu was sitting on the bed, and a middle-aged woman in her forties wearing a crimson veil was sitting there and laughing with Empress Dowager Xu.

And next to the Empress Dowager Xu, there was a little girl in a pink skirt half-snuggled beside her.

The little girl is not very old, she looks like she is fifteen or sixteen years old.

Take a closer look, I saw this little girl with apricot face and peach cheeks, eyes with autumn water, and eyebrows like a crescent moon.

When Zhang Lingyang came in, the little girl was talking and laughing with the Queen Mother.

Zhang Lingyang raised his hand and made a silent motion, and did not let the eunuchs waiting outside pass it on, so he walked in by himself.

"Erchen has seen the queen mother!" Walking into the house, Zhang Lingyang saluted the Empress Dowager Xu, and then took care of himself on the bed next to the Empress Dowager.

And the little girl who was still snuggling up to the Queen Mother just now saw someone coming in, so she stood up, so nervous that she had nowhere to put her hands and feet.

Fortunately, the middle-aged woman sitting at the bottom got up and pulled the little girl, and then curtstooked: "The concubine Zhang has seen the emperor!" ”

"Get up!" Zhang Lingyang nodded, then looked at the Empress Dowager Xu next to him and asked, "I don't know why the queen mother called her sons?" ”

Empress Dowager Xu pulled the little girl to her side again, signaling her not to be afraid, and then pointed to the middle-aged woman under her with a smile and said, "This is your uncle Zhang." ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the little girl and said, "This is the third girl of your uncle's family, whose name is Wanming." ”
