"Great Minister, it's here!"

In the drizzle, a canopy boat leaned against the pier, and after a slight shock, the boatman tethered the rope on the pier, then pulled out the sampan and put it on the hull and the shore, then bowed his head and whispered to the hull: "The rain is still falling, please be careful." ”

"Hmm."

Inside the hull, there was a soft snort, and then there was a shaking, but a person came out of the middle of the cabin.

Ning silk robe, in the middle of summer to wear very fit, comfortable, a folding fan in the hand, painted autumn scenes, as if a fan, can bring a little autumn.

There are a lot of small things hanging on the waist strap purse pendant or something, and then with a cross-legged gauze hat, foundation official boots, and people are also jade-faced and vermilion lips, which is really full of the appearance of the champion from a family.

Such a person came out of the canopy boat, I am afraid that there are not more than 100 boats around, and there are many people who come down from the north and come up from the north to the south, and at this time, there are many people who can't help but look at this pretty scholar, and at a glance, there are many boat girls who are blushing...... This guest is really handsome.

was stared at like this, but Gu Gao didn't feel anything at all.

As a descendant of Gu Tinglin, a descendant of the Jiangnan family, a talented son of a young and talented person, and a famous person of the Donglin Restoration Society, with so many identities on his body, where is he not walking sideways in Jiangnan?

Don't say that they were surrounded by such a few people, when they were in Nanjing, when a group of their friends played on the river, there were thousands of onlookers!

On his face, there is always a little arrogance that cannot be erased, even if he rushes from Jiangnan to Qingjiang in a small boat at this time, he can never erase it while tossing and working hard.

"It's really strange that there is such a continuous drizzle in the middle of summer."

Standing at the bow of the boat and muttering, Gu Gao moved forward, behind him, there were several personal servants who followed, one of the tall strong men had already opened the huge oil umbrella, and was busy following at this time, blocking Gu Gao from the drizzle drifting obliquely.

Although he made a nonchalant look on his face, Gu Gao was also deeply surprised. Qingjiang here seems to have restored the prosperity of the year, and not only that, but it seems to be slightly exceeded.

There are many wharves and ports here in Qingjiang, there are hundreds of ships in the river bay here alone, among which there are many large ships with the scale of boats, and there are not many merchants who come and go from south to north, just such a place, it seems that you can hear the dialects of Daming all over the country.

Sichuan sound Chu language, Min sound Cantonese dialect.

Coupled with the three Wu and two Zhejiang, he really can't understand that he has been here in Qingjiang, and it is indeed the center of gravity of the north-south thoroughfare, especially the intersection of Caoyun, where the household department and the Ministry of Industry have branches here, and it is needless to say that it is lively and prosperous, but to such a point, it seems that it is really unimaginable.

Of course, he didn't understand that now that the Generalissimo's Mansion had money in his hands, the purchase of materials from all over the country had already been put on the journey, and this part was that there were a lot more ships to deliver goods.

As for the salt introduction to change the ticket introduction, it has attracted huge businessmen from all over the country to come, Huguang, Fujian and Zhejiang, at least hundreds of large businessmen with enough net worth rushed to come, at this time, large and small merchant ships, there are more than 1,000 ships for salt tickets.

Coupled with the normal commercial transportation between the north and the south, it is not surprising that even in the midst of such war, Qingjiang still maintains an unimaginable fleet here.

"I've seen Brother Chao, and Brother Chao, you're here too? Hey, and Gong Xiaosheng! ”

The Generalissimo's Mansion is actually at least about half.

This is also a matter of no choice, the young talents who can be used, those who are not so rigid, and those who can do something, are most likely the best in the re-establishment.

The extension of this Donglin Party is healthier than the Donglin Party at this time, and there are also some young scholars who are really worried about the country and the people and are willing to do something to help the people and serve the country.

Like the famous four sons, as well as the former main alliance of the past realms, who have special elders in a certain aspect, are now almost attracted by Zhu Cihong.

Of course, diehards like Huang Zongxi and Gu Gao, the crown prince didn't bother to recruit them.

Even if they can barely do it, in Zhu Cihong's opinion, they are also worthy?

In the next 20 years, Huang Zongxi will still be a shabu in the ideological world, but he is paranoid, and the collection of historical materials is also very biased, and many of them are simply made up.

The amount of history that this man and his apprentice Vance have fabricated is simply outrageous. The identity of King Xiangfu is obvious, but when Vance and others revised the history, they added all the rumors of wild history that were not righteous, and even deliberately distorted the facts.

At this time, Huang Zongxi fabricated a lot of Zhu Cihong's bad deeds, what kind of cruelty, drunkenness, etc., the compilation is vivid, this kind of behavior is very hateful, but it is very secretive, and it spreads slowly, and even Zhu Cihong has no choice.

Doing such a popular way also made Zhu Cihong very contemptuous of this later great Confucian thinker.

Fortunately, there are also many people who can do practical things.

Yu Huai and others praised the words in the Military Affairs Department and worked diligently. Fang used his wisdom to give birth to flowers, and the situation in Huaishang, especially the matter of Li Jin, was able to fight with the Donglin Party in Jiangnan and public opinion, and the contribution of this anti-water Donglin Houjin was really not small.

Of course, Fang Yizhi is also worried that his father is now under the rule of the Generalissimo's Mansion, and if there is any disagreement, I am afraid that his father will be affected.

Otherwise, if the matter of gold is reversed, he will be destroyed. At least, in the Donglin Restoration Society, he may not be able to gain a foothold. If you have the scruples of your father in front of you, you can at least explain it, and as for the degree of understanding that the comrades in the society can have, then we can only see the wisdom of others.

There are also Chen Mingxia, Zheng Yuanxun and others, who are now the right-hand men of the prince's side, and their strength is not small.

Even Gong Dingyu and Hou Fangyu, who later took refuge, the former is the head of the newly established Finance and Taxation Department, and the latter is in charge of the Department of Culture and Education, and the education in the army is also doing a good job.

From April to July, everything has changed, and it is only a hundred days.

Gu Gao's trip, in fact, had no arms, and the people he asked to see in private were Hou Fangyu and Zheng Yuanxun, who had a good personal relationship. The former has a good personal relationship, and the latter has always been anxious about people's difficulties, and he can be in the main alliance of the Restoration Society, which is based on his righteousness and extraordinary ability, as well as the good popularity formed by liking to help others.

Unexpectedly, except for Chen Mingxia, all the leading figures in the Restoration Society gathered on this small pier, and everyone was in a jade belt and scarlet robe...... The position of Si Zheng, the prince has been submitted to the emperor for permission, and he has been promoted to the third level, and now he is a high-ranking official of the third grade, how many people have entered the rank and the first, and the status that can only be had after at least 20 years of hard work, these people in front of him, who have served the prince for less than four months, have been easily obtained.

In the future, there will be major events in the national war, which are related to the life and death of the great tomorrow, and Zhu Cihong is not afraid that the current reward will be too much, and it will be difficult to continue in the future.

These subordinates of his, regardless of civil and military affairs, are afraid that there will be many people who will be crowned princes and marquis in the future.

Of course, in the future, apart from him, the crown prince, where can these officials and generals know? The Ming Dynasty attaches great importance to the civil official family, and the lord has not been lightly given for more than 100 years, and Li Chengliang's merits are not allowed to be hereditary even if he is an earl, Qi Jiguang has made great contributions, and he has not even fished out a count, it is just the hereditary position of a few brocade guards.

At present, everyone is already in a scarlet robe and jade belt, and if they want to rise to the first level of Shangshu of the second grade, I am afraid that there will be at least more than ten years to survive, so at this time, everyone's faces are full of ambition and very excited.

In contrast, Gu Gao, a child of the family, was still a white man, standing in a group of officials in scarlet robes, and as soon as the enthusiasm at the beginning was gone, the atmosphere became embarrassing.

"Ahem, Gu Zifang, what a coincidence that you came, we really have a good fortune today."

Which one of those present is not a seven-trick exquisite heart? As soon as the atmosphere was not right, Hou Fangyu stepped forward and said with a smile: "I just got a [***], what a coincidence that you came!" ”

It is a specialty of the Yangtze River, the meat is fat and tender, it is a delicacy that can be met but not sought, even if Gu Gao is a native of Wuxi, he has never eaten it a few times since he was a child.

At the moment, he also puffed up his head and said with a smile: "In this way, I really called my brother." ”

"Let's go, let's go." Gong Dingyu has always been wild and uninhibited, in official business, he is very attentive, but usually he is very crazy, this time he grabbed Gu Gao's arm, strode forward, and only said: "Hurry up, be careful Chen Mingxia They smelled the smell and rushed over to grab the food." By the way, Chen Baishi said, I am busy with official business, and I can't welcome you from afar, so I will meet in your room tonight to make amends. Although he is the military and political secretary, he is a positive third grade, and the crown prince also gave him the crown prince Shaobao, which can be regarded as our class leader...... You don't blame him. ”

"How dare the little brother?"

Gu Gao came here, firstly, because he had something to ask for, and secondly, he also had some burdens on his body, so he lacked confidence, and he didn't dare to return to the wildness he had when he was in Nanjing, so he trembled, listened to Gong Dingyu's words, and hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head, and only said: "Brother Baishi said this, it is too polite, and my brother can't afford it." ”

"Blind, what are you doing so politely," Gu Gao was like this, and everyone was also secretly laughing in their hearts, and they didn't speak at the moment, only Gong Dingyu stomped his feet in the mud, and said loudly: "Hurry up and get on the horse, it's important to eat [***]." ”

………… A group of talented people in the restoration society, who are also scarlet-robed officials, made such a fuss by the river, and the entire dock was stunned. In these years, as long as people who often go out, even businessmen, they know some of the names of the Donglin Restoration Society, and there are only a few suitable people, and many people recognize them as powerful officials in front of the prince, and their reputation is also loud, so as soon as everyone leaves, the entire riverside is full of discussions.

In the crowd, there was also a young man of about thirty, with a hard beard on his lips, medium height, slightly fat, the boat came from the north, not long after the Gu family's boat, the situation by the river, he also saw it clearly, at this time there was only a disdainful sneer on his face, and after Gu Gao and the others left, he subconsciously touched the beard between his lips, and then opened an oil-paper umbrella by himself, and quickly disappeared into the boundless rain.
