Zhou Dingcheng was anxious when he heard this: "Don't, I know you have a beautiful woman who can't be sold, but don't forget about me." I'm going to marry a wife a long time ago, can I wait until today? Let me tell you, Lao Zhou, when I was young, I was also surrounded by beautiful women. ”

Besides, he believed it. Zhou Dingcheng's painting skills are outstanding, and there will be no fewer people rushing to give him beautiful women. Artists were respected and had a high status in ancient times.

"Let's be serious, shouldn't I get you an official position, otherwise I won't be able to do a lot of things in the future." Moreover, it was only after seeing the files of these people that I faced this problem squarely.

Now Zhou Dingcheng manages these people by relying on the relationship with the situation, although no one dares to despise him, and he is convinced by his words, but after all, it is not a long-term thing.

However, he knew that Zhou Dingcheng was not addicted to official positions compared to him, and even had an instinctive resistance to official positions, so he was mixed up for a while.

"You know, you don't have to worry about this, I got it myself." Zhou Dingcheng said with a smile.

"You got it yourself?" Besides, he was surprised.

"Of course, if you don't go into the palace to do things, you can't always ask a friend to help me, Zhang Whale got me the title of counselor of the sixth guard of Jinyi, and I will hang it for the time being."

"Counsellor for military affairs? The title is not small. ”

Civilian officials are generally involved in the military with the title of Counsellor in military affairs, as is the case with some governors.

The counselor is not small, similar to the chief of staff of later generations, except that he is not a military attaché, but a civilian officer.

"I don't care what size it is, and I don't want any officials to do it, isn't it just to make things convenient." Zhou Dingcheng waved his hand, not caring about the authentic way.

Besides, nodding, it seems that Zhang Whale is really enthusiastic about his affairs, and this kind of thing doesn't need to bother him, just help him do it.

For Zhang Whale, I don't know how much of his dedication is because of Zhang Juzheng's relationship, and how much is the emperor's order, anyway, he is always helping him now, which is enough.

Xiao Nier and Zuo Ling talked to each other all night last night, and they only slept in the early hours of the morning, and Jiuniang and Murong Yanran never showed up again.

Besides, after breakfast, he then found the commander of the guards of the two prefectures, and told them that all of them would take a three-day vacation, and each person would be given twenty taels of silver, and those who liked to go shopping would go shopping, and those who liked to listen to operas would go to the theater, but there was only one point, they were never allowed to cause trouble outside, let alone go home at night.

The two guard commanders were overjoyed, they didn't expect that there would be rewards and vacations, although they were not distributed according to the level of their positions, but they received the rewards before they did anything, and they couldn't talk about anything else.

Besides, there was a pain in my heart, and when I shook my hand, it was almost 10,000 taels of silver, and the army really couldn't afford to raise it without a fixed high income. Although the emperor said that everything is reimbursed and there is no upper limit, he has no face to ask Zhang Whale for reimbursement of this kind of account. Fortunately, his pocket is still bulging, and it doesn't matter if he is generous once in a while.

He couldn't hide from this matter, after all, Ji Chang and they each had a reward at that time, and of course the guards of the two mansions would definitely know, if they didn't spend this money, wouldn't it show their level and thickness? There will definitely be a lot of discussion in the future.

Ji Chang felt sorry for him on the side, how many young people could earn it back if he threw so much money. If he had so much money, what kind of official would he be, and he would go home and enjoy his happiness.

What is the purpose of being an official, isn't it just to earn more money and live a good life after all? Ordinary officials are also in this ideological realm, and those who can love and dedicate themselves to their jobs are considered good officials.

Besides, Ji Chang has always seen everything he has done, since the preparation of the sixth guard, he has spent more than 200,000 taels of silver, and not only has he not deducted a penny, but he has also pasted tens of thousands of taels of silver, what is this picture.

Ji Chang couldn't figure it out. Besides, I can't figure it out, he didn't want to be an official at all, but was forced to go to Liangshan.

When the guards of the two prefectures heard the news of the vacation and silver reward, they immediately cheered, they liked to work under their hands, because they were bold and generous, and the Zhongshan Mansion and the Wucheng Hou Mansion did not have so much silver on them.

As for the problem of accommodation, besides, I also explained to them that for the time being, they will live like this, do not move the layout of the house, expand the stables, and the horses that are not used for the time being are still stored in the horse farm of the Beijing army, and then pick them up when needed.

After explaining these things, he got into the carriage and went to work in the sixth guard.

As soon as I entered the yamen, someone came to report, saying that Lord Liu had been invited.

Besides, I wondered, I don't know what Liu Shou is looking for him.

Recently, he has been busy training troops, and he has not bothered to pay attention to the affairs of the imperial court and the Jinyi Guard, even if he has pursued the three assassins before, he has not inquired about it again.

"Brother, why are you still wearing civilian clothes?" Liu Shouyou was stunned when he saw him.

"What's the matter, it's not a court meeting, why can't I wear civilian clothes?" Besides, I don't understand, he doesn't like to wear the official uniform of the commander of the Jinyi Guard every day to swagger around the city, he usually wears civilian clothes, and unless there are major occasions, it is normal for officials to wear civilian clothes.

"Don't you know, Lord Hai Ruihai is going to Jiangnan today, and all the officials have made an appointment to go outside the city gate for Lord Hai, I'm afraid you don't know, so I specially looked for you, come with me, but your casual clothes are a little not dignified." Liu Shou has a way.

"Lord Hai went to Jiangnan, why did the hundred officials walk outside the city gate?" Besides, I still don't understand.

"You, you really don't hear anything outside the window, you don't know such a big thing?"

Besides, shaking his head, he really didn't know. He is now only thinking about how to train the troops, and if there is a major event in the court, Zhang Juzheng should inform him.

"Yes, Lord Zhang may not have told you that Lord Zhang doesn't like Lord Hai."

Besides, it's just confused: "I said big brother, can you make it clear no, whether Lord Zhang likes it or not, what does it have to do with the fact that the hundred officials want to practice it for Lord Hai today?" ”

Zhang Juzheng doesn't like Hai Rui, and I know this, in Zhang Juzheng's mansion, Hai Rui is simply a taboo word, and everyone will avoid it, what is the reason for this, and it is not clear.

However, he admires Hai Rui very much, which comes from his previous life, just like the reason for worshiping Qi Jiguang.

Liu Shouyou saw that there was no one in the room, and then whispered: "You don't know, I heard that Lord Hai originally wanted to be promoted to the imperial history of the left capital, but he was stopped by Lord Zhang and failed to become a prince." ”

"It's impossible, it's too disparity." And I don't believe it.

Hai Rui turned out to be just an official of the Nanhai Division of the Ministry of Households, and it was impossible to be promoted to the deputy first-rank member of the imperial court at once, Zuodu Yushi.

Although the rights of the six Shangshu may be no worse than the Zuodu Imperial History, and the official Shangshu is above the Zuodu Imperial History, but according to the grade, the Zuodu Imperial History is the highest.

Of course, if someone is willing to change from the official department to the left capital imperial history because of this grade of reason, it must be a problem with the brain, legally speaking, the most powerful is the left capital imperial history, but the actual power is the official department of the book, which is directly related to the promotion and demotion of hundreds of officials.

This is just like in later generations, in all departments, whether it is the central or local, even in very small units, the status of the personnel department is always more special.

"What's impossible, your brother is only a five-grade person, isn't he also a commander." Liu Shouyou said with a smile.

Also, in retrospect, he was originally dressed in white, and he was suddenly promoted to the fifth grade, and then he was ordered to form the sixth guard of the Jinyi Guard, and he was also a deputy second-grade member.

"It's a pity, Lord Hai only has the emperor to appreciate him, but Lord Zhang is resolutely resistant, and the emperor has no choice but to compromise and send Lord Hai to patrol Jiangnan with the title of Imperial History. The hundred officials also served him outside the city for this reason. ”

"Oh." Besides, I finally got it.

He can't comment on this kind of thing, on the one hand, he admires the people, and on the other hand, he respects the most, so he can only say nothing.

"In fact, it's not just Lord Zhang who opposes the promotion of Hai Rui, there are a lot of people in the court who oppose Lord Hai as the imperial history of the left capital." Liu Shouyou gave a bowl of wine, and then said.

"Why?" Besides, he asked.

"Do you need to ask? No matter what Lord Hai Ruihai says, he is also a person who is angry with the former emperor, even if he is honest and honest, the matter of angry death of the former emperor cannot be regarded as meritorious, right? If you reuse him at this time, won't everyone follow suit in the future and aim to kill the emperor in anger? Liu Shouyou said angrily.

Besides, I laughed, this matter is indeed a little incomprehensible, it is said that the emperor was angry with the emperor, and the current emperor should be angry for the emperor, even if he does not punish the crime, he should also be dismissed and go home.

But what the emperor thinks in his heart, everyone also understands that the emperor was not angry to death, isn't he still the crown prince today? According to this reason, Hai Rui is of course meritorious, and it is a great merit, but he can only understand it, but he can't say it.

Everyone has an account in their hearts, of course, Hai Rui doesn't care about this, he is still the same, still has that temper.

"Therefore, this official also thinks that it is reasonable for Lord Zhang to oppose the reuse of Hai Rui, if Lord Hai really becomes the imperial history of the left capital, in the future, these imperial historians will all use all their resources to compete for the award of the emperor who is angry."

Besides, laughing, not to mention, it is not the first time that the emperor has been angry to death, it is said that Emperor Renzong was killed by Li Shimian, the priest of the prince at that time.

After Renzong's son Xuanzong succeeded to the throne, he heard that his father was angry with Li Shimian to death, Long Yan was furious, and sent Jinyi Wei to arrest Li Shimian and beat the beast to death with his own hands.

At that time, no one dared to advise, but Li Shimian happened to enter the court to do business, and when he heard that the emperor ordered him to be arrested, he took the initiative to join and came to the main hall to meet Xuanzong.

Xuanzong gritted his teeth and ordered Li Shimian to be stripped of his official uniform, and then * looked at the golden gourd on the hall, ready to kill Li Shimian in the hall with his own hands, but he still asked before he started, how did Li Shimian make the emperor angry to death?

Li Shimian replied calmly: The minister just wrote a letter to persuade the emperor to establish a prince as soon as possible.

After Xuanzong heard this, his anger immediately disappeared, and he ordered someone to re-dress Li Shimian in the four-grade official uniform, and everything was as before.
