Sun Chuanting can be promoted, no one doubts this. But it was a bit surprising that he was promoted to the feudal official who guarded the town at once.

However, at this point, Emperor Chongzhen was arbitrary and did not listen to the opinions of his ministers. After the announcement, the meeting was adjourned, but the first assistant Wen Tiren was left behind.

When there were only two monarchs and ministers left in the Wenhua Palace, Emperor Chongzhen asked with concern: "The governor of Fujian was removed, and He Qiaoyuan was appointed as the left servant of the household department and the imperial history of the left capital, sitting in Fujian, and the governor of Zhejiang, Fujian, and Guangdong, and opening the sea full-time, should it be implemented?" ”

Judging from the current situation, the most fierce opposition is the governor of Fujian, after the order was issued, this clear decree was issued, and it is estimated that everyone knows the real reason why Xiong Wencan left Fujian.

Wen Tiren thought for a while, shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, for the sake of safety, the minister thinks that it is better to make the world clear after the new governor of Fujian arrives and has a tacit understanding with Governor He." ”

Emperor Chongzhen listened, thought about it, and felt that he was a little anxious, so he nodded. Wen Tiren's idea of being prudent also reminded him, so he discussed again: "The opening of the sea ban should be based on Fujian in the early stage." However, the local soldiers and sailors in Fujian, I can't believe it. It's better to let Sun Chuanting bring some cronies and soldiers to go, so that someone can be used and things can be done easily. ”

"Your Majesty is wise, and the minister agrees!" Wen Tiren listened, nodded and responded, "It's just that Governor Sun was only a minister in Langzhong before, and then he has been resigning at home, I'm afraid there are no cronies and soldiers, right?" ”

This so-called cronie soldier, of course, is not just a dozen or hundred. In order to assist the governor in managing a province well, it is necessary to have a commander and a general with an army. Judging from Sun Chuanting's resume, there are no such conditions.

But Emperor Chongzhen didn't see it that way, he already had an idea in his heart, so he immediately replied: "After Liu Guoneng was recruited, I promised to take the position of guerrilla, and the previous idea was to use it to deal with the Tumochuan Mongolian tribe. Looking at it now, it can be allowed to select soldiers among the surrendered thieves, and then follow Sun Chuanting south. In this way, it is a guest army and has nothing to do with Fujian. And he and Sun Chuanting have made great contributions together, which can be regarded as familiarity, and there should be no problem. What does Wen Qing think? ”

Wen Tiren listened, thought about it, and bowed and said, "Your Majesty's arrangement is the safest!" ”

Emperor Chongzhen smiled when he heard this, then this matter is decided. In fact, he suddenly decided to send Liu Guoneng to lead the army to the south with Sun Chuanting, and there was another intention that he didn't say.

is that Liu Guoneng was forced to rebel by corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and his relationship with the gentry will not be very good. The same is true of his men. There is still a very important problem to be overcome in opening the sea ban, that is, tax evasion and tax evasion. This point, from He Qiaoyuan's estimation that the opening of the sea ban can bring tens of thousands of taels of silver and Zheng Zhilong's income gap of tens of millions of dollars a year, it can be estimated.

And the most serious tax evasion and tax evasion are actually the officials or those businessmen who have a relationship with the officials. If a peasant army is sent to collect taxes, this will certainly be much better than using the original official army to collect taxes.

When Sun Chuanting came to Beijing to thank him, he would be told to him again, and Fujian would almost be able to start work.

Wen Tiren returned to the cabinet according to Emperor Chongzhen's intentions. The content of the will was transmitted through the contact information in the chat group as soon as possible.

Outside the county seat of Dai County, Shanxi, there are still countless camp tents, but they are the banners of the official army. In one of the camps, the former court guerrilla general Liu Guoneng was a little depressed and poured tea to quench his thirst.

These days, there have been countless peasant troops who have surrendered, and as a new recruit, he is familiar with the details of the peasant army, so he was assigned a task, not only to guard those peasant troops, but also to hand over those peasant troops from the hands of the officials and soldiers one after another every day.

That's not all, because he was recruited, so when he was guarding the peasant army, he could often hear scolding such as "traitor, court eagle claw", which also made him depressed.

No, a little empty, he was very envious of Zhang Xianzhong. Although both of them were named guerrilla generals, Zhang Xianzhong didn't have to think that he was so busy, and he didn't have to listen to the scolding of his former brothers, so he was ordered by the imperial court to hug the thighs of the cabinet ministers.

He can know with his toes that if there is no accident, according to Zhang Xianzhong's ability to be a man, it is estimated that he will climb to the high branch of the cabinet assistants, which means that he will have a backer in the court in the future.

"Damn, Lao Tzu should have accepted a lot of righteous sons from him in the first place!" Liu Guoneng thought depressedly in his heart, "As long as there is a righteous son as capable as that Zhang Dingguo, I don't think it will be like this." ”

After thinking about it for a while, Liu Guoneng thought of Sun Chuanting again: "He has made such a great achievement, he should be rewarded!" He is the only one he knows who is an official. I hope he can be promoted, so that although he is not as good as Zhang Xianzhong, he can also have a backer! ”

He was thinking about Cao Cao, and Cao Cao came to him, only to hear his subordinates come in and tell him that Sun Chuanting had arrived.

When Liu Guoneng saw it, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly greeted him out in person and entertained Sun Chuanting's good students to the camp.

To his surprise, Sun Chuanting, who had always been expressionless, seemed to be in a good mood today, and there was a rare smile on his face.

Without waiting for him to speak, Sun Chuanting had already smiled and said to him: "The emperor has appointed this official as the deputy governor of Zuodu and Fujian, and the imperial court's will has been issued from Beijing. After receiving the holy decree, the official will enter Beijing to thank him and then go south! ”

As soon as Liu Guoneng heard that Sun Chuanting was going to Fujian, his heart suddenly chuckled, it was broken, and the backer he identified was unreliable!

However, he immediately came back to his senses, was taken aback again, and hurriedly showed a happy expression, and hugged his fists on the spot to say hello to Sun Chuanting, it turned out to be a feudal official, which was really a bit unexpected.

Sun Chuanting smiled and accepted it calmly, and then looked at Liu Guoneng for a while, and just when Liu Guoneng thought that there was something wrong with his face, he said: "The court has another will, promote you to Fujian general, and take office with this official." ”

"Ah, what?" Liu Guoneng couldn't imagine that there was such a good thing, so he actually promoted himself to a level, and subconsciously confirmed: "Fujian general? ”

Sun Chuanting smiled and nodded, and confirmed to him: "It's a Fujian general, and it's not empty-handed, the imperial court wants you to select elite leaders to go south among the thieves in custody." ”

Liu Guoneng's mouth opened wide when he heard this, which means that he was promoted to Fujian and transferred to Fujian, and he still has real power in his hands, and he is following Sun Chuanting, the governor of Fujian.

Hehe, wouldn't that be even better than Zhang Xianzhong!
