The ceremony of presenting the prisoners was very successful, when the newly established Heavenly Soldier paratrooper squad jumped down from the sky in turn to open the umbrella bag, the atmosphere reached its peak, all the people surrendered, the mountain shouted long live, the voice soared into the sky, Zhu Yijun's chubby face was red with excitement, and the queen mother of the two palaces and the queen of the middle palace were also pretty, and the shock was beyond measure.

As the founder of the Heavenly Battalion, Zhang You was fortunate enough to accompany him, and he could see the situation clearly, and he could even feel that the three most noble women in the empire suddenly looked at him with strange eyes.

The identity of the concubine is not enough, and it is impossible to participate in the prisoner sacrifice ceremony, so Zhang You failed to meet Zheng Shufei, who was quite favored by Zhu Yijun when she first entered the palace, and naturally it was impossible to see Li Rongconcubine, who changed her name and surname.

After the prisoner sacrifice ceremony, the expected officialdom shock did not happen, only Wu Xiu, the magistrate of Zhongxiu County, Guangning, was corrupted and perverted the law, and was led by Zhao Pengcheng, who was newly promoted to Jinyi Wei Qianhu, to take off his black gauze hat and arrest him into Beizhen Fusi, and when he was imprisoned in the edict prison that night, he left a letter and committed suicide in fear of crime.

This is not due to the Sanjin "small courtyard" outside Li Chengliang's Bei'an Gate, which covers an area of nearly one acre, nor is it the father and son's five hundred taels of gold that work, it is really a Liaodong affair, relying on Li Chengliang a lot, Zhu Yijun can't make up his mind because of a dead Geng Zhong, and make people panic and officialdom.

This is the common problem of governing the country with courtesy, which is also the root of the culture of protecting officials and officials. It is indeed beneficial to be a man with the golden mean, and it is not surprising that if you govern the country with it, then it is not surprising that you will form a party for personal gain and accumulate many evils.

Geng Sun was a little puzzled, Zhang You told her that some things can't be taken too seriously, the result is the most important, isn't Wu Xiu, who killed Geng Zhong, dead? Qian Wugua was also rewarded by the emperor, and he was called a "true righteous man" for his righteous deeds, and he was sealed with a hundred households in brocade clothes. This can be regarded as acquiescing in Geng Zhong's grievances, but it is just to avoid material discussions, so Geng Zhong was not publicly rehabilitated.

Gewu Institute was finally officially "listed", and Zhang You finally took off his green official robe and changed into a cyan official robe embroidered with purple mandarin ducks, officially becoming a department-level official under the emperor's direct control. Of course, the level is still not high, in the words of later generations, there are many officials in the capital, such as his level, three bricks are stoned to death, and there must be at least one of them. The key is to directly manage this point, Gewu is subordinate to the celebrant supervisor, although the admiral is the eunuch Zhang Hong, he is a knowledgeable person, he only appeared once on the day of the "listing", and he did not interfere in affairs, and all decisions were pushed to Zhu Yijun.

From Zhu Yijun's deadline to the official "listing" of the institute, it lasted 14 days, during which Zhang You received a total of 73,238 taels of silver, of which Li Chengliang's small courtyard was worth 5,000 taels.

"Your Majesty, please see, this is a detailed record," in Cining Palace, after Zhang You finished reporting, he handed over the account book under the shocked eyes of Zhu Yijun, Li Caifeng Lanqi and others, and said: "The Gewu Institute has just opened, and there are all kinds of waste waiting to be revitalized, and Weichen is ready to leave five thousand taels of silver as start-up capital to recruit talents, purchase equipment, etc., and leave forty-three thousand two hundred and thirty-eight taels of silver, two thousand taels of gold, and ask His Majesty to send someone to bring them back to the inner treasury," he said and smiled: "It's too heavy, and it's not a matter to always let the captains of Jinyiwei guard it day and night." ”

"You kid has a way of making money, and you have made so much money in just a few days, aren't you afraid that those Ziyan officials will not be able to get along with you?"

At this moment, Empress Dowager Li had already taken the lead in recovering from the shock and asked with a smile.

Zhang You smiled and said: "Niangniang looks down on Weichen, this is not Weichen's own ability, but pretending to borrow His Majesty's dragon power, anyway, those who give gifts also have money, don't do it in vain, you can also improve the life of the harem. As for those officials, as long as Your Majesty doesn't blame Weichen, it's just that Weichen is infamous and doesn't hurt, I don't care. ”

Zhu Yijun nodded with satisfaction, and was about to speak, not wanting Empress Dowager Li to speak first: "This is a mistake, the ancients said, 'From thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift', mourning the mother of the world, should be an example for the world, and never refuse to accept the style of extravagance, opening a precedent for extravagance and waste." Of course, you have this filial piety, the mourning family is very pleased, as for those silver taels, it should be used where it is most needed, the emperor, the mourning family heard that they went to the northwest of Suishan to go to the drought, and took out 50,000 taels to help the victims. ”

Zhu Yijun was a little painful, but he didn't object, and happily agreed.

"Weichen has a suggestion, it is a good thing to help the victims, but it is better not to hand over the silver taels to those officials, but it is better to open a porridge shed outside the city in the name of the queen mother of the two palaces and the queen of the middle palace.

Empress Dowager Li and Zhu Yijun glanced at each other and praised: "This is a good idea, emperor, look at the mourning family, just follow Zicheng, right?" ”

is really a good person, and I know that I add Empress Dowager Chen and Empress Wang. Zhu Yijun nodded approvingly: "Since the queen mother has no opinion, the child should obey." After a pause, he asked Zhang You with a smile: "You kid did a good job, tell me, what reward do you want?" ”

"Your Majesty personally approves, but all the rewards are over, and the ministers are satisfied, and the rewards or something, forget it."

"Don't you really want it?" Zhu Yijun asked with a smile.

Zhang You shook his head, his face full of sincerity: "I really don't want it." ”

"Then forget it, I was still thinking about whether to give you a name like Jinyi Wei Qianhu, but now think about it, you have just been in Beijing for a month, and you have become an official of the seventh grade from a white body, which is fast enough, and if you reward it again, it will really not be good for you."

Zhang You was a little regretful, but a little moved.

"The emperor is very worried, however, if you don't reward you, the mourning family will reward your mother, according to your grade, give your mother seven grades, in addition, the new commander of the heavenly barracks, Zhang Rang's wife, is not your future mother-in-law, and also give three ladies to you. Now that the two of them are in Beijing, they turned around and told the two of them that they were lonely in the mourning palace, so let them enter the palace more often to accompany the mourning family. ”

This is a great honor, Zhang You didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly knelt down to thank him.

"In addition, hurry up and find an auspicious day, I will personally marry you and the daughter of the Zhang family!" Zhu Yijun also joked.

Next to Lan Qi and Wang Rong were already dumbfounded, this is Aiwu and Wu, right? This Zhang You is really amazing, not only does Long Live Lord like it, but now even the Queen Mother is rare for him, in terms of *favor* letter, I'm afraid that only Lord Yuanfu can compare, right?

After another thousand thanks, Empress Dowager Li suddenly yawned: "Emperor, you go and get busy with you, I didn't sleep well last night, I'm a little tired, Zicheng, you stay, the medicinal diet made last time is very useful, you can make some more for the mourning family." ”

Zhang You's heart moved, when will I make medicinal food for you?
