"Yes!"

The other party's reaction was of course expected, Feng Kaizhang's father was the current governor of Tianjin, Tianjin was an important seaway port, the shipping in the Yuan Dynasty was developed, Tianjin was already an important place, at the beginning of the dynasty, the shipping was still developed, and Tianjin was a very important strategic location.

However, after the opening of the Jihe River, the Beijing division and the south of the Cao Yun from the sea to the land transport, the time is long, the sea is scrapped, there are many people in the capital do not know that there is a ship from Tianjin to the south to go this sea route to go.

But after all, Wang Jiayan is a squire in the military department, and he usually pays attention to these road traffic, and he is very familiar with Feng Yuanbiao and Feng Yuanyang brothers, and he probably has heard of it before, so it is not surprising that he guessed it.

"Yes!" Feng Kaizhang looked like a well-trained son of a family in front of his elders, he stood under the two old men, and replied very similarly: "Father and uncle, that's what it means." Since October of the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, my father has been working on this matter. ”

"Oh?" Wang Jiayan asked with great concern: "How is it now?" ”

"My father prepared about 2,000 escort soldiers and horses, as well as 200 two-masted ships of 400 materials, and the holy driver set off from Beijing, at most five or six days to Tianjin, and from Tianjin all the way south to Beijing, the sea journey was 2,440, and the longest time is expected to be 20 days...... Everything was prepared, including the palace in Tianjin, the guards, the attendants, the ships and sailors, the distribution of food, and the doctors...... All this has been prepared, as long as the court decides, the holy car can set off at any time, dozens of days later, the Ming Jingshi is Nanjing. ”

"Hmm, hmm, good, great!"

At the beginning, Wang Jiayan was still unimpressed with the plans of the Feng family's uncles and nephews, as well as Li Banghua, Li Mingrui and others...... The thieves are still far away in Shaanxi, although Shanxi is empty, and it is a well-known fact that the thieves can easily hit the Beijing Division, but this process may be half a year or even a year, so long, can the imperial court think of a way to enrich the border towns such as Juyong Pass and Bauhinia Pass, block the thieves, or can transfer the soldiers of Guan Ning to come in and repel the thieves...... All this is still undecided, and it is still a bit early to talk about moving south?

But after hearing this, Wang Jiayan also admired the Feng uncle and nephew in front of him.

Unconsciously, they have secretly done so many things, he is also an old official, half-closed eyes to listen to Feng Kaizhang talk about Tianjin's preparations, and he also knows in his heart that he is indeed well prepared, as long as the emperor comes to Tianjin, everything will fall into place, and there is no need to spend too much at all.

"Very good, then, Xianqi is in Beijing, has he already divided the boss, explained clearly, and received support? As far as the old man knows, the emperor still wants to move south, but the emperor is unwilling to take this responsibility without the minister proposing it first. ”

"That's true." Feng Yuanbiao said on the side: "The emperor feels that he can't afford to discard the Jingshi, and the reputation in the history books of later generations is too ugly, so he would rather wait for the ministers to put forward the word first, and then he will allow it...... In that case, let's take the initiative. Speaking of this, he turned to Feng Kaizhang and asked, "This matter is very important, and you are afraid that you will not be able to convince too many people in the future, but someone will agree, right?" ”

In the past few days, under the operation of the Feng brothers and Li Banghua and other old ministers, a series of actions will be launched. And getting more support from people is also a warm-up when it is officially launched...... Even if it is not supported, it is okay not to be reactionary.

Seeing the expectant eyes of his uncle and Wang Jiayan, Feng Kaizhang just shook his head slowly, and after half a ring, he said: "Back to my uncle, my nephew has been the elder in the past few days, Chen Shoufu and Wei Cifu have never seen their nephews, but they have accepted the post, only saying that the matter of moving south is important, and they can't discuss it in the private house without authorization, so they refuse to meet." As for the rest of the cabinet members, they just refused to accept the post. ”

"Ugh." Feng Yuanbiao sighed, shook his head and said, "Since this is the case, then simply go straight to business...... Have you been to the Department of General Affairs? ”

"Go." As soon as he mentioned this, Feng Kaizhang's handsome face was full of anger: "My nephew went to the Tongzheng Division, indicating that it was the envoy sent by the Tianjin Governor to Beijing to deliver the fold, but as soon as the Lord Tongzheng saw that there were words on the watch seal that led thousands of people to Tongzhou to greet him, he had already handed the fold back, saying that it was absurd and informal, and it must not be handed into the palace, so the nephew worked in vain, and the fold was not handed over at all." ”

"Ridiculous, ridiculous!"

Feng Yuan blew his beard angrily and glared, and began to stomp his feet and scold.

Everyone present also smiled bitterly, this old temper is really old and strong, if it weren't for this, he would stay in the position of the secretary of the military department, and the efficiency would certainly be much better than the current Zhishi.

"Okay," Wang Jiayan, a guest, in turn, comforted Feng Yuanbiao: "After the year, the thieves will come to Shanxi, Zhibo Datong and Juyong, by that time, there will already be a trend of entering the house, and it is logical for the people of my generation to mention moving south, so don't be too anxious." ”

"That's it." Feng Yuanbiao stroked his beard and sighed, "State affairs are like this, I really don't know what to do in the future." ”

"When a monk strikes a bell for a day."

Speaking of now, Wang Jiayan only drank a few sips of tea and didn't even eat. However, none of them liked to socialize, so they stood up at the moment and said with a smile: "It's already dark, and the students are going to inspect the city defense." Now that there are probably not even a few hundred people in the city at night, how can this be done, and if there are lawbreakers entering and leaving the city, it will not become a joke. ”

"Recently, Beijing has been quite unstable...... Feng Yuanbiao has also heard some things, thought about it, pointed to Feng Kaizhang and Wei Yue under the seat, and said: "My nephew has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, he is good at riding and shooting, and he has also seen swordsmanship. That Wei Mou was the general commander of Xuanfeng, and the battle of Songshan was killed from tens of thousands of people, and there is no need to say much about martial arts. I see, how about the two of them go with you? ”

Wang Jiayan inspected the city defense this time, he was originally a military attache in Beijing and was not alarmed, he only planned to be alone, at most bring one or two family members to carry lanterns, since Feng Yuanbiao spoke, he had nothing to do, just smiled and said: "There are many places to be inspected tonight, brother Shi don't complain." ”

"Might as well be!" Feng Kaizhang smiled slightly, and said: "The little nephew can still bear this hardship, besides, look at the city defense of the capital, if the holy car sets off to leave the city, the little nephew should be accompanied by an escort, and the more prepared the better." ”

"Very good," Wang Jiayan admired this pragmatic attitude, looked out the window, and said with a smile: "The weather is not good, then, let's hurry up!" ”

……

……

The weather was indeed very bad, when Zhu Cihong left the palace, the sky was already dark, and the wind was blowing, and the chests of the people who blew were all cold.

It was already dark, and he had already been to the Qianqing Palace, and he had seen Chongzhen and Zhou Hou, and he stayed for a while before coming out. Tonight, you can expect a late delay, and it's going to be particularly exciting.

At this time, he had already changed his clothes, and not far from the Jinshui Bridge in Donghua Gate, a few men in strong suits came over, saluted on the spot, and said: "I've seen the master." ”

"No need to be polite."

Zhu Cihong's expression was grim, he raised his hand, and said, "How many old duans are there?" ”

"Back to the master," Li Gong was fully responsible for the matter, so he looked quite uneasy, and stepped forward to reply: "Since I found it in the afternoon, everyone has been to the house, and they are not at home. They all went out separately, and the ministers found a few places they frequented, but they were nowhere to be found. ”

"Did they bring guys?"

Because they often use their hands, and each person has a lot of people in his house, the various tools used by his hands are hidden in a few points in the city, and once someone uses them, they will know immediately.

"Brought it." Li Gong's expression was even more uneasy, and he replied: "Seventeen people, take a full set of guys." ”

"Damn it!" Zhu Cihong's face turned pale, and he said, "Why give it to them?" ”

"This ......"

Li Gong and the others hung their heads and did not answer, in fact, the situation in the East Palace has long been unstable, after all, as soon as you kill a lot, you will be bold, and this kind of thing is getting more and more daring, and you have killed and injured many people, and those big families are not vegetarians, and the companions of the defense hospital are very handy, so the more you do it, the stronger the violent atmosphere. And the situation of doing things on their own and being unwilling to obey orders is getting more and more serious.

Of course, there is another important reason, that is, because everyone is a hundred household officials, and Zhu Cihong is here, everyone obeys the command without any doubt, or the prince speaks, of course, there is no problem. But once there is a lack of instructions, or Zhu Cihong himself is not there, then the problem is big.

"yes, I see." Of course, Zhu Cihong also understands the truth, this was originally intentional by him, this small group lacks a real core leader, and the only core is him. Because before he really grasps it, there can't be a subordinate who can lead the overall situation on his behalf, otherwise, there is a danger that Tai'a will be reversed.

And now, except for these few who are out of control, his prestige in the army has been established, whether it is his decision, generous rewards, or the skills he has shown, plus his unquestionable position in law...... It has already been decided that this small armed group has been firmly held in his hands.

Now, it's time to promote a few core military attachés to command on his behalf, and in his absence, to be able to adapt and flexibly handle emergencies.

Just like the previous incident, if Li Gong was a higher-level military attaché, things might not be like this.

Several secret strongholds in the city, the command of ordinary operations, and the management of horse farms and other places outside the city are also professional responsible officers.

Of course, this is not the most important thing...... Zhu Cihong's eyes showed a trace of murderous intent that could not be hidden...... The most important thing now is to find those lawless people and punish them justly and without mercy!

Now, it is time to clean up military discipline and restrain the people with punishment!
