Wang Yongqiang, with his injured left arm, didn't seem to feel any pain at all, and was busy smiling from ear to ear all day long, and used one finger to make his subordinates go to northern Shaanxi to carry his family's private belongings and transport them to the place where he was working in southern Shaanxi.

Wang Huan has orally appointed him as the commander of Xi'an Soldiers and Horses, the commander of the town in southwest Shaanxi, and he has been named the Bo of Yan'an, and the pardon and cabinet documents have to be brought over when Wang Yingxiong returns from Zhaoqing.

This appointment, Wang Huan after careful consideration, Wang Yongqiang was transferred from his birthplace of northern Shaanxi, and came to Xi'an Zhencheng to serve as a soldier, ostensibly from a poor place to a relatively wealthy place to be an official, with great grace, but in fact, there is a hidden heart of prevention, after all, there is a governor above the commander, and the candidate for the governor of Shaanxi, Wang Huan is to arrange the old man of Kuizhou, Chongqing prefect Meng Zhiyu to do it.

Meng Zhiyu belongs to the capable officials, very capable, there are also talents who know the soldiers, in Chongqing Mansion to do the wind and water, the north of Chongqing Mansion and the border of Miaodi, for many years Han and Miao people have long-term armed conflicts, after Meng Zhiyu arrived, Daxing regimental training, armed with Wang Huan supplied weapons with a group of 3,000 people, clean and clean solution to the problem of Miao Min,

This force will follow Meng Zhiyu to Xi'an to take office, subordinate to the Fubiao battalion, not under the jurisdiction of the commander, and it is also a constraint on Wang Yongqiang, this is not Wang Huan's tricks, because there are too many examples of similar local warlords being unruly and capricious in the late Ming Dynasty, and they have to be guarded against.

And Gao Youcai, his situation is different from Wang Yongqiang, this person is a local native, a big tycoon, belongs to a big family, and is essentially different from the warlord, Wang Huan also gave him an official, appointed him as the commander of the town in Northwest Shaanxi, named Yu Linbo, raised it to the same status as Wang Yongqiang, and listened to orders under Meng Zhiyu's tent. Such an arrangement is tantamount to provoking subtle psychological changes between Wang and Gao, and there is a gap between them, and they will no longer be in a trap and fight against the imperial court.

The rest of the personnel arrangements were based on the official positions of the above three people, with Shaanxi people and those transferred from Sichuan accounting for half of them, and the shortage of officials in Sichuan as a result was recommended by Meng Zhiyu, Xu Tiezhu, Zhang Cheng and others, and they were selected and promoted from the Kuizhou military system to fill the positions in various yamen.

The position of the prefect of Chongqing, Xu Tiezhu strongly recommended Chen Kun to take over, Wang Huan thought about it for a while, and for the sake of the face of the late Chen Qiyu, he was accurate.

And Wang Huan's financial officer Ma Chongming, the first time rushed over from Shizhu, he took a large group of staff, Kuizhou Commercial Bank to open to Gansu and Shaanxi, the mutual market has been opened, a large number of business opportunities should be distributed under the monopoly of the government-run commercial bank, Wang Huan does not want such a large merchant as Jin Shang to appear on his own territory.

"We have a monopoly on the buying and selling of horses, and we are not allowed to deal with others; Salt, iron, cloth, these things must also be issued by the government to transport and buy and sell in large quantities, otherwise it will be regarded as smuggling, and it will be sentenced to imprisonment and confiscation. Wang Huan told Ma Chongming.

Ma Chongming's face is full of the unique cunning of businessmen, he has shares in Kuizhou Commercial Bank, the more the commercial bank earns, the greater his income, of course, he has to do a good job with one mind, backed by the government, it is simple and easy to do business as a red-top businessman, he has deep feelings.

"Don't worry, Kuizhou Commercial Bank is my lifeblood, and I will not flinch for the sake of the commercial bank!" Ma Chongming patted his chest and swore an oath: "There is no shortage of silver in Kuizhou, if you smash a lot of silver, you will be able to buy and sell in the mutual market immediately!" ”

Wang Yingxiong, who had been hiding in Hanzhong, rode over the Qinling Mountains to Xi'an on horseback in person, on the one hand, he sent food and grass supplies to Wang Huan, and on the other hand, he also had the meaning of flattering.

"Master Hou's merits are unparalleled!" When Wang Yingxiong saw Wang Huan, he trotted all the way over, bowed down, smiled flatteringly, and paid homage with the great gift of the lower official to meet the upper official: "The imperial court pillar country, when the old man sees the emperor and tells about this great victory, there must be a generous reward!" The title of the marquis is going to be upgraded again! ”

He has now regarded Wang Huan as the thickest thigh, and he will never let go if he hugs it tightly.

Wang Huan took him to see Meng Qiaofang and the others who were locked in the cage, and then inspected the heads of thousands of Dongyu, the heads of those people with money rat tails were completely different from ordinary people, but Wang Yingxiong still trembled and carefully examined them.

"Really, it's all true!" Wang Yingxiong rubbed his hands, his face flushed with excitement, and his gray beard floated upward: "Meng Qiaofang alone is worthy of all Li Chengdong's exploits in Guangdong, not to mention that there are so many Tartar heads, Master Hou, this miracle is simply boundless!" No, if the court doesn't reward him heavily, the old man won't do it even if he dies in the court! ”

Wang Huan smiled, took out a list, which was densely packed with hundreds of names, followed by the proposed official positions, and said to him: "This is the new military general Wenchen of Shaanxi and Sichuan, you take a look, if there is no problem, ask the court for an order, and perform the formalities." ”

Wang Yingxiong took it with both hands, didn't look at it, carefully folded it and put it in his sleeve pocket, and grinned: "The candidate decided by the Hou Ye, of course the old man agrees, don't look at it, I will take it away, I believe that the emperor will see the Hou Ye's such merits, Long Yan Dayue, of course, he will also approve the red seal." ”

Wang Huan nodded and said with a smile: "This is the best, the cabinet has worked hard from afar, and a good banquet has been prepared in the yamen, please move to the cabinet and have a cup of dust washing bar together." ”

Wang Yingxiong is in good spirits at happy events, and the crown prince's official title from the first rank seems to be beckoning to him not far in front, like a charming ******, lying on the couch with a jade body waiting for his arrival.

He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and happily followed Wang Huan, and after a few steps, he suddenly remembered something, blinked his eyes and whispered to Wang Huan: "Master Hou, there is one more thing, the old man almost forgot to say it." ”

Wang Huan turned his head to look at him, Wang Yingxiong looked embarrassed, and cautiously leaned in and whispered: "Princess Changping, who came with the old man, is temporarily staying in the post hall in the city at this moment, and the Hou Ye is afraid that he will have to be properly settled." ”

Wang Huan's head suddenly "buzzed" loudly.

Before Wang Yingxiong finished speaking, he continued with a self-conscious mouth: "The princess is in the stone pillar, following the two generals Qin Yiming and Qin Gongming, to learn the art of war and technical attack, and ordinary men can't endure the hardships, but she gritted her teeth and persevered, and her swordsmanship has been successful. She also formed an army of women, all widows or lone women who had fled from other places, and practiced in formation all day long, wearing armor and fighting, if not only one hand, maybe she would have to practice archery. ”

Wang Huan's mouth was wide open, dumbfounded, and he stood in place in a sluggish manner, unable to speak.

……

The cool breeze blows on the face, the night is rich, the climate in Guanzhong in early autumn is pleasant, the city under the Lishan Mountain is brightly lit, the people who cut off the braids eliminate the sores of the war all night, inside and outside the city, the people pick up the soil and carry the stones, burn bricks and tiles, rebuild the houses and courtyards, the area of the city on the northeast corner is divided into new residential areas, a large number of homeless people who have no houses to live in can build their own houses there in accordance with the area stipulated by the government, of course, the storefronts along the street are built by the government in a unified manner, and after they are built, they are rented out by the government for profit.

Outside the yamen of the former governor of Shaanxi, there is a very large courtyard, and the signboard of the post house is hung on the door, which is the place where officials from all over the country settle down in the town, and there are several courtyards inside, which is the upper hall with better conditions.

At this moment, under the bright moonlight, a team of white-armored soldiers of the Kuizhou Army's pro-guard team stood outside the door of an upper hall, standing guard guard, and the general leading the team was Ma Wannian, the captain of the pro-guard team.

Ma Wannian carried a long knife horizontally, wearing iron armor, majestic and incredible, with him and this team of soldiers, no one dared to approach this courtyard, even the servants who occasionally came in and out, they did not dare to lift their heads.

Ma Wannian's eyes looked around sternly, walking back and forth from time to time, the small place at the entrance of the courtyard was densely covered with his footprints, every once in a while, he glanced towards the courtyard, but his face was strange, smiling and slightly embarrassed, looking as if he was expecting something to happen, but he was afraid of what would happen.

In the courtyard, there are two small courtyards, behind the shadow wall, there are rockeries and green bamboos, there are pond lotus leaves, trees shade and green grass, with the breeze caressing, the candles in the room are swaying, and the figures are reflected on the window paper, quiet as home, warm into the heart.

Wang Huan seemed to be infected by Ma Wannian, lowered his head and walked back and forth behind the shadow wall several times, several times wanted to step in, but stopped, a generation of famous generals were majestic and calm, and they actually showed a bitter look on their faces, as if there was a thousand catties of weight under their feet, but they couldn't take that step.

Perhaps I heard the sound of footsteps outside, and the door of the main house in the courtyard suddenly opened, and as soon as the lights came on, four or five women with swords in their hands jumped out.
