Liang Wencheng patted his head and scolded: "If you want to die, when you see the governor of the capital, you will forget everything in this excitement," seeing Li Zicheng looking at him and smiling, he said: "Among the eight prefectures in Gansu, in addition to Huizhou, the remaining seven prefectures, there are at least two primary schools and one middle school in Fucheng, among which Lanzhou, Gongchang, Taozhou, and Longnan have realized that each county has primary and secondary schools, and it is advancing to Liangzhou, Ganzhou, and Suzhou. Vertex updates the fastest"

Li Zicheng nodded, although the development of education requires a lot of money, but the territory of the Heavenly Mandate Army has already issued paper money, as long as the paper money is stable, the pressure will not be too great.

"Among the five prefectures in Qinghai Province, Xining and Sanchuan have also achieved the goal of having primary and secondary schools in each county, and there are primary and secondary schools in Hainan, Haibei and Tongren, and there are primary and secondary schools in Fucheng," Liang Wencheng took a sip of tea and continued: "The development of new education in Sichuan is also very fast, Chengdu, Chongqing, Baoning, Shunqing, Longan, Luzhou, Tongchuan Prefecture, have established primary and secondary schools, and are advancing to their respective counties, and the rest of Kuizhou, Jiading, Zunyi, Songpan, Jianchang and other prefectures, as long as there are enough teachers, will soon establish schools in Fucheng." ”

Li Zicheng secretly rejoiced in his heart, Gansu, Qinghai, and Sichuan are all borderlands, and the promotion of new-style education can not only naturalize foreign races, but also help improve the quality of the people......

Shen Dao reported on the military affairs, in addition to Lanzhou and Xining, tens of thousands of reserve soldiers were trained, and the fifth battalion of Zhou Binbu was near the water, equipped with gunmen of four regiments.

At present, the Firearms Bureau still has more than 20,000 rifles, enough to equip four regiments.

However, what Li Zicheng is most interested in is that the Firearms Bureau has developed a grenade and has entered the stage of mass production!

The nemesis of the rifle of the Manifest Destiny Army seems to be the only shield, and with these grenades, the shield wall that can restrain the enemy army, the power of the rifle will be fully exerted......

Liang Wencheng also expressed his worries, one is the large-scale expansion of the army, the promotion of new education, the vigorous construction of cement avenues and other reasons, the daily deposit of silver in the Mandate of Heaven Governor's Mansion is only 100,000 taels, which is converted into paper money, that is, 100,000 yuan, and the paper money is currently only issued in Gansu and Qinghai provinces, should it be promoted to other provinces? Cui Wenxuan, vice president of Huaxia Bank, did not come to Xi'an this time because he was worried about money;

Second, in the places outside the Guan, whether it is the capital of Gansu Province or the governor's palace of Hexi, because the population is too small, the change of the local people's lifestyle is very slow, and only half of the people who have settled down are at most.

Li Zicheng narrowed his eyes slightly, the most urgent issue at the moment is still military development, paper money, such things as customs and foreign customs cannot involve too much energy, and it does not hurt to develop slowly, and only after the establishment of the new dynasty can more manpower and material resources be mobilized.

As for education, if it is to develop on a large scale, it is necessary to have a large number of teachers, and Li Zicheng has been holding on to it, and now he is vigorously developing education in order to reserve enough teachers for the future.

Ten years of trees, 100 years of people.

Talent is not a commodity, and it cannot be produced quickly through the assembly line!

Li Zicheng met the eager gazes of the two and said with a smile: "Wen Cheng, Shen Dao, what do you think about the future of the Heavenly Mandate Army and the current situation?" ”

Liang Wencheng and Shen Dao glanced at each other, lowered their heads and drank tea, and finally said: "On the way to Xi'an, my subordinates have already discussed with Lord Shen, the war in Shaanxi is over, and the governor of Dadu should be called emperor!" ”

"Emperor?" Li Zicheng was taken aback, he knew in his heart that sooner or later there would be such a day, but Liang Wencheng brought it up so quickly, he was still very surprised, too surprised!

Shen Dao hurriedly arched his hand and said, "My subordinates also think so, the Metropolitan Governor should be called the emperor!" ”

Li Zicheng drank two sips of tea, thought for a moment, suddenly raised his head, and said, "Why?" ”

"Dadu Governor, his subordinates have a heartfelt word," Shen Dao got up and bowed, "Today's Heavenly Mandate Army has already possessed five provinces, and one of the three points of the world has been established, after the Metropolitan Governor is proclaimed emperor, he can play the banner of the new dynasty and accelerate the collapse of the Ming Dynasty......"

Liang Wencheng also said: "The Metropolitan Governor, the number of Ming Qi has been exhausted, and the establishment of a new dynasty can gather the hearts of the people of the world!" ”

Shen Dao saw that Li Zicheng was silent, and said: "The most important thing is that today's Ming army, in front of the Heavenly Mandate Army, is already vulnerable, and the Metropolitan Governor can ...... the Northern Expedition to Beijing at any time."

Li Zicheng was silent, and said for a long time: "You guys retreat first, and we will discuss this matter later!" ”

"The Governor ......"

Li Zicheng waved his hand, let the two go down first, and then immediately summoned He Xiaomi, "Xiaomi, the flying pigeon passed the book to Chengdu, let Guo Shijun come to Xi'an immediately!" ”

"Yes, Grand Duke!"

After He Xiaomi left, Li Zicheng sat alone in the small hall, thinking for a long time, but still did not make a final decision.

"Governor, are you in there?" Suddenly there was a knock on the door outside the small hall.

Li Zicheng realized that the sky had darkened, carefully distinguished, the voice just now seemed to be very familiar, so he lit the oil lamp, opened the door and looked out, a familiar figure stood in front of the door, wanted to enter but could not, saw Li Zicheng, his face was obviously surprised, but he did not dare to throw himself into his arms.

"Xiaolan, come in and talk about something!" Li Zicheng waited for Xiaolan to enter the small hall, and then pointed to the door, Xiaolan hesitated for a moment, but closed the door with a red face, turned around and knelt down in front of Li Zicheng, "Governor, the eldest lady let the maid ......"

Before he finished speaking, he was already stopped by Li Zicheng and picked up, "Xiaolan doesn't need to be polite, I haven't seen you for a few years, let me see if Xiaolan has grown up!" ”

Xiao Lan was so embarrassed that she almost screamed, but after she stabilized her mind, she raised her head bravely, twisted the corners of her clothes with both hands, twisted her body, and her face was red, "Isn't the Metropolitan Governor...... The servant has long been ...... I've been an adult for a long time......"

"Oh, that's not what I'm talking about," Li Zicheng's head leaned over and sniffed at Xiaolan's neck, Xiaolan thought that Li Zicheng was going to kiss her mouth, and was just about to reach out to stop it, but she didn't watch out for being attacked by Li Zicheng's chest, "Xiaolan, I mean here, has you grown up here, well, it seems to have grown up a lot......"

Xiaolan was extremely ashamed, her face was annoyed, but she was secretly happy in her heart, and glanced at Li Zicheng, "Isn't the Metropolitan Governor already ......?"

"Ao, it's hard to accurately judge how much bigger it is through the cotton clothes," Li Zicheng didn't wait for Xiaolan to protect her chest, he had already put his big hand into Xiaolan's arms, and kissed her on the small mouth, "Xiaolan, do you miss me these days?" ”

"Think...... Ah no......" Xiaolan almost burrowed her head into Li Zicheng's cotton coat and made a muffled voice.

Li Zicheng sat down on the wooden chair, pressed Xiaolan on her thigh, and rubbed it on her face, "Xiaolan, I haven't been in Lanzhou in the past few years, but I've suffered you!" ”

"The maid is not bitter...... Xiaolan's nose was sour, and she almost dripped tears, she had already been subjected, so she naturally understood the meaning of "bitter" Chu, so she leaned into Li Zicheng's arms and closed her eyes obediently.

Li Zicheng lowered his head and pouted # to hold her lips, this time, she didn't leave for a long time, Xiaolan's body trembled slightly, but she didn't avoid it, she snorted, and later, she took the initiative to raise her arms, hooked Li Zicheng's neck, and hung her upper body up.

Xiaolan was obviously emotional, Xiao Xiangyu took the initiative to find a target, and Li Zicheng lowered his head while hugging her sideways. Xiaolan finally left Li Zicheng with her lips, and said carefully: "Dadu Governor, the ladies are waiting for Dadu Governor's dinner......

"Before dinner, an aperitif!" Li Zicheng said in his heart, don't you eat the steamed buns given for free? Although Xiaolan has no name, she is also one of the wives, that is, the king of heaven Lao Tzu knows, and Lao Tzu does not violate discipline!

He carried Xiaolan into the inner room, threw her on the kang bed, and moved the charcoal brazier outside to the kang, then returned to the kang and stripped Xiaolan's cotton clothes and pants......

After Li Zicheng released his passion on Xiaolan's body, he held her little face, "Xiaolan, are you comfortable?" ”

Xiaolan hugged Li Zicheng's back tightly, but there was a wry smile on her face, "Metropolitan Governor, if this matter is known by the eldest lady, don't pick up the ...... of the servant."

"Fool!" Li Zicheng pinched Xiaolan's tender face with his hand, "Do you think the eldest lady doesn't know?" ”

"What then? The servant ......" Xiaolan buried her head in Li Zicheng's chest, closed her eyes tightly, and her body was still hot, but she was trembling slightly, obviously frightened.

Li Zicheng knew Gao Guiying's thoughts, but he didn't say anything, picked up Xiaolan's face, pecked on her pale pink lips, and said with a smile: "This is the eldest lady who pities you, it seems that you are deeply liked by the eldest lady on weekdays!" ”

"Ah......" Xiaolan let out an exclamation, and then she was overjoyed, "Dadudu, is this true?" Thinking of the eldest lady arranging such a thing for herself, she was even more shy, her cheeks were already crimson, and a pair of small hands finally left Li Zicheng's body, covering her face and eyes, but peeked at Li Zicheng's face from between her fingers.

Li Zicheng took Xiaolan out of the small hall and came to the back house where the ladies lived, Gao Guiying had already taken the ladies and children to kneel to greet her, "The concubine (maid) knocks to see the governor!" ”

Li Zicheng hurried over to greet him, and first helped Gao Guiying up, "These days, I'm not around, but I've suffered Guiying!" ”

Li Song quickly got up and shouted: "Daddy is finally back, my mother often thinks about Daddy!" ”

Li Zicheng touched Li Song's head, "Is Song'er naughty?" Did you listen to your mother? ”

"Song'er is the most well-behaved, Song'er will help her mother wash her feet......"

"Song'er!" Gao Guiying was uneasy, but Li Zicheng laughed, "Song'er has been ...... for a long time"

Chen Qiudie was already cramped and uneasy, and she couldn't wait to throw herself into Li Zicheng's arms, but she was finally mature, and she couldn't compare to before, and she kept looking at Li Zicheng blankly after getting up, but she didn't dare to come over.

Li Zicheng caught a glimpse of Chen Qiudie, hurriedly greeted her, and held her little hand, "Butterfly is not in a position, you can do whatever you want!" ”

Chen Qiudie was stunned for a moment, then flew into Li Zicheng's arms, and muttered: "Die'er wants to be the governor of the capital......"

"Am I not coming back?" Li Zicheng hugged Chen Qiudie tightly in his arms, and gently patted her back with his right hand, as if comforting a wronged child.

Song Yulian stood far behind, and saw that the Metropolitan Governor was hugging Chen Qiudie, and there were two lines of tears on her face......

Li Zicheng let go of Chen Qiudie, and when he saw Wang Wanyu standing alone, he hurriedly walked over to hold her hand, and said to everyone: "It's cold outside, let's talk about it when you go home!" ”

"The Governor is right, let's go home and eat!" Song Yulian rushed back first, and after a while, she served a hot meal with Xiaomei and Xiaolan, the Li family had too many people, so they simply made two tables, Li Zicheng and his wife had a table, and the children had a table alone, served by Xiaomei and Xiaolan.
