Lian Zining glanced at him with a smile and said, "Lao Hong, don't fight this piece of thought." Yes, all officials need to be supervised, and there is no military discipline, but it is definitely not a civilian official to supervise the civilian officials, and a civilian official to supervise the military generals. Investigations, case solving, arrests, and interrogations should be left to MI6! There is no need to mention a yamen of this nature. If I'm not afraid of your discomfort, I trust these old brothers who fight to the death more than civil officials. ”

Hong Chaojiao smiled bitterly: "Human nature, the lower officials understand." ”

"If only you understood." Lian Zining nodded: "You go down first, go to the side hall and wait, take a sip of tea, Shi Kai is sitting there." Later, the official will take you to see something. ”

"Skye? Director of the Works Department? "Hong Chaojiao is a little unclear.

Lian Zining smiled mysteriously: "It's a good thing." ”

"Then the next official will wait and see." Hong Chaojiao was about to retreat, but Lian Zining suddenly stopped him.

"Lao Hong, there may be a sentence that may be ugly, but I have to say it in front."

Lian Zining stared at Hong Chaojiao and said: "You are all officials appointed by me privately, not registered in the Ministry of Officials, and the power to appoint and dismiss you is in my hands, not the imperial court." I hope you remember this sentence, and I hope that your people can remember it. Got it? ”

Hong Chaojiao's heart sank, and he said to Lian Zining Zhengse: "Your Excellency's kindness, the lower officials are toothless and unforgettable, there is no second heart, and every day can be revealed!" ”

Lian Zining said lightly: "Let's go down 1"

Went out the door, walked two steps to the side, and crossed a small stone bridge. Bypassing a lotus pond, it is a side hall. The rain hits the water with a tinkling sound. The remnants of the lotus were scattered in the rain, and a few frogs could already be heard occasionally.

When Hong Chaojiao entered the side hall, he suddenly felt something, and when he looked back, he saw Li Tie, the counselor of MI6, and another person entering the study.

He suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart, as if something was about to happen.

It was Wang Chunji who came with Li Tie, who was in charge of the Propaganda Department. Lian Zining was also a little surprised when he saw him coming.

looked up and down, and saw that his face was full of red light, and he was also walking in the wind, obviously during this period of time, his hands were in power, and there were people at the bottom who obeyed orders, and he was quite proud, and his life was very good.

The two saluted, and Lian Zining first asked Wang Chunji, "What's the matter?" ”

Wang Chunji smiled: "My lord." The reason why Xia Guan came here this time was to report to the adults on the development of the Propaganda Department. ”

Lian Zining said to Li Tie: "You wait for a while." ”

Li Tie nodded yes.

Wang Chunji said: "According to the instructions of the adults, carry out a propaganda offensive with various places, and talk about it internally. Second, it is said to be external. Let's talk about the internal aspect first, and now the lower officials are stationed in each of the following counties, and there is one scribe. In charge of publicity work in various places, it is mainly responsible for three main tasks. First. In the academies, private schools, and societies in various places, a special wall has been set up. There are large paintings and a large number of poems and articles on it, promoting the exploits of adults and Wu Yijun. Second, there is a bulletin wall in front of the county government in various places, and the list is posted every day and changed from time to time to publicize the achievements of adults. The third is for the common people, now Xiaguan and others have arranged ten tunes, handed over to the troupes from all over the country, and gave them a death order, every month, these ten tunes must be performed for a round, if there is something that cannot be completed, the troupe will be disbanded directly! In this life, I will never sing again. ”

Lian Zining smiled: "You are really ruthless!" ”

Wang Chunji smiled: "If you don't be ruthless, you can't do it!" My lord, don't you know, as soon as our method came out, I really don't know how many people oppose it, the local crowds are raging, and there are many people who violate the yang and yin, and to deal with this kind of people, you have to deal with it ruthlessly. Well, now it's all honest, and none of them squeak. ”

Lian Zining smiled: "You have a set." ”

"Your Excellency is overrated." Wang Chunjile said: "Externally, it is mainly to establish opera troupes, opera gardens, and hire people to write books, all of which are aimed at the people. Our activity area is mainly concentrated in the core cities such as Liangjing, in addition, there are Tianjin, Jinan, Taiyuan, Kaifeng and other northern cities. Nowadays, there are more than 60 literati for our use, and the officials are all those who are down-and-out and nameless, but most of them have a few brushes under their hands. Most of these people are cynical and think very highly of themselves, but they have no ability at all, and they are destitute, so we first secretly approach them, gain trust, and then move them with affection, induce them to benefit, and easily make them work for me. ”

"Nowadays, about 20 of these people have built a theater troupe, and we have paid for them to build their own theaters, and they will perform regularly every day, all of which are written by themselves. Moreover, most of these drama groups now have MI6 people lurking in them, and they are also spying on the intelligence in the customs by the way. ”

"Hmm." Lian Zining nodded, knowing why the two of them came together.

"And those other people write a book every day, and the task we set for them is more than 100,000 words and a hundred taels of silver. if it is less than 100,000 words and more than 50,000 words, it shall be thirty taels of silver. At least 30,000 words, it is 20 taels of silver. In order to make money, these people write hard every day, and these days, they have written more than 80 books. ”

"More than 100,000 words and 100 taels, this is not a low value! It's much better than when I worked so hard to write that 'baby ning'. Lian Zining laughed.

"My lord, you Yunwen Yunwu is the number one person in the world, where can they compare with you!" Wang Chunji hurriedly said.

Lian Zining looked at him and suddenly smiled with relief: "It seems that it was really right to hand over this errand to you." If it weren't for you, it would be difficult for someone else to take on it. These methods you use are the official and you will never be able to think of them. ”

He was telling the truth, this Wang Chunji was thoughtful, just from the fact that he asked those literati to write their own scripts instead of using ready-made ones to act, after all, if it is the north and south of Beijing, the opera troupes in these big cities in the north are all performing the same drama, it will inevitably make people find out and give people a handle. If it is self-produced. It's fine, it's like the difference between imitation and copying. If you just imitate, it's easy to see the difference.

Sure enough, there is a specialization in the art industry. Lian Zining couldn't help but feel relieved, after so many years of hard work, he finally had some useful talents under his hands.

It's nice to feel like you don't have to worry about everything.

It's just some hearts that should be, but they still have to be after all!

Wang Chunji said again: "My lord, those scripts or something, the lower officials have brought them, can they be brought in for you to see?" ”

Lian Zining was also quite interested, and said, "Cheng." Take it! ”

"Yes!" Wang Chunji went out and gave an order, and the two guards came in with a big box, and when they opened the box, they saw that it was full of brand-new books, and I was afraid that there would be no more than 100 books.

Lian Zining picked up the top book and looked at it, the name was 'embroidered like Wu Yi Boyan History', seeing this name, Lian Zining couldn't help frowning, and his heart was very unhappy.

Wu Yi Boyan History?

Your uncle's!

He can accept some infamy about himself. Even stigma, but that doesn't mean he also wants to get his wife and concubine involved. Looking at the meaning of this book, it is clear that it is the story of himself and these women, and at first glance it is the kind of book with considerable color. Still embroidered? It can be seen that it is still illustrated, Nima, where did you get the prototype. You've seen it!

Wang Chunji observed his expression, and his heart tightened at the moment.

Lian Zining held back his anger and flipped it open. I looked behind me carefully, and the look on my face became very exciting.

The hero in this book is his Wu Yi Bo Lian Zi Ning Lian Master. He has had sex with more than 30 women in it, and the details are outrageously detailed, and the large number of erotic illustrations is vivid and beautiful. Some of the women's figures are hot, some are slender, some are slender, some are delicate, and so on, and the writing is also good, which makes people look red-faced, even if they are a little hot in the hearts of old rivers and lakes such as Lian Zining, if those lonely young women and girls in the boudoir see it, they are afraid that there is already a murmur of spring water below.

All in all, this is a top-notch × × book that will surely become popular on the Internet for future generations.

But the problem is that none of the women in it are known to Lian Zining.

In other words, Lian Zining and more than 30 women who don't know where he is constitute the hero and heroine of this book.

The occupations of these people can be said to be quite complex, there are famous prostitutes, actors, and good families, what makes Lian Zining's heart furry is - there is even a rabbit with fragrant buttocks and fragrant all over his body.

Lian Zining doesn't know what kind of emotions he should be now, is he angry, angry, or complacent and complacent? It doesn't seem to be either, and in the end it just came together into four words - crying and laughing.

"Whatever they write, anyway, no matter how you write it, you can't get rid of the image of a rich and handsome. Whether it is glamorous history or official history, real things or nonsense, after all, there is only something to be envied. Think about when I first read those obscene novels, I always think of those male pig's feet in the books, although they say that they are little white brains, but in fact, they are also envious? Nowadays, those who read this book see me in the book, and they are generally envious, jealous and hateful, right? ”

Lian Zining let out a long sigh, looking at this box of books, he had a very strange feeling in his heart, the person who wrote the book that day has now become the person in the book! The strangeness of life's encounters is really eye-popping.

It was also at this time that the feeling of being deeply integrated with this era and having no separation was also extraordinarily strong.

An extremely grotesque thought suddenly flashed in his heart--after a hundred years and a thousand years, if this book is handed down, will anyone force it to be destroyed?

I think there is.

He flipped through other books again, and found that it was roughly the same, there was a lot of nonsense, almost no serious business, and there was even a book called 'Wu Yibo's Fornication in Northern Xinjiang', which was simply ridiculous and nonsense. He found that if the limitations of their respective times were put aside, the imagination of these poor literati in the Ming Dynasty was no less than that of those Internet writers in later generations.

However, just because you write it this way doesn't mean you don't have any benefits.

The Ming Dynasty was an era of secularization of society, and the vast number of people definitely liked the images of Lian Zining in the book.

Lian Zining let out a long breath, glanced at Wang Chunji, and said with a smile: "These books of yours are a bit interesting." ”

Wang Chunji broke down in a cold sweat and said with a smile: "Don't dare, don't dare." The adults praised it falsely. ”

"There's nothing you don't dare, you're doing a good job." Lian Zining patted him on the shoulder. The conversation changed: "However, there has to be a degree in it." You can idle some imaginary people to come out, but in reality, these people don't have to be written. Got it? ”

Wang Chunji and other people like him naturally understood it, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, my lord, the official is awake." ”

Lian Zining nodded and waved his hand: "You go down!" ”

Wang Chunji replied and retreated, while Lian Zining ordered those books to be moved to the back house.

The idle people and others have all retreated. There were only two left, Lian Zining and Li Tie, he glanced at Li Tie, and said in a condensed voice: "After I leave, what is wrong?" ”

"If you go back to your lordship, there is nothing unusual, and the officials are all in peace, except for going back and forth between the military camp and their own homes, they don't even go out of the city gate. Miss Bai, who commanded the envoy in Xia, took a hunting trip with people and came back after hunting a tiger and three deer. It is said that the tiger was killed by Miss Bai's arrow in the eye, and it was rumored to be a beautiful talk for a while, and everyone knew that Commander Xia had made a great female general in the family...... There was a riot at the 10th Guard Station some time ago, but it was suppressed in time. More than 50 people were killed on the spot, and Commander Xia was furious and borrowed someone from MI6 to copy it. A total of more than 300 accomplices were asked, and all of them were beheaded......"

Li Tie was obviously prepared. I said it in detail, and it was very detailed. Lian Zining was not impatient, listened patiently, and nodded lightly from time to time.

He is such a thoughtful man, who is accustomed to seeing the big from the small, so that he can often deduce something from such trivial things.

After saying this, half an hour had passed, Lian Zining pondered for a moment and asked, "Over there of the White Lotus Sect, how is the situation?" ”

"The White Lotus Sect is now arrogant, and it is already in a pattern with the Jurchens and the generals of Liaobei. The general of Liaobei had 80,000 heavy troops in Alizhiweitun, and after the Jurchens suffered several losses, they no longer fought hard, but turned to besiege. The other Jurchen divisions attacked from all sides, and had already occupied the Vultures, Muli Jiwei, Alunwei and other places, plundering the Han people, looting grain and livestock, and strengthening themselves. The first Jurchen even approached Suwen Hewei, which was close to Fuyuwei, but then retreated. The White Lotus Sect is those guards who occupy the southern part of the territory of the Liaobei general, and these two forces have almost divided the entire Liaobei general's territory. Now the Ming army has been fully contracted, hiding in the city, but there are no troops outside the city. The general of Liaobei also had five slightly larger cities in his hands - Ali Zhiwei, Wu Zhiwei, Wu Zhiwei, Tashan Wei, and Suwen Hewei, with a total of 70,000 troops. ”

"Plus, there's a big deal." A smile hung on the corner of Li Tie's rare mouth: "There are some of us who have mixed into the White Lotus Sect. ”

"Oh? And what's going on? Lian Zining was puzzled and hurriedly asked.

Then Li Tie said the matter of Niu Evil, and said: "This guy is now renamed Niu Dazhang, but it is very popular, and the news I just got two days ago is that he is now the No. 1 cadre under the White Lotus Sect Incense Master Zhao Wouji, and he has a vanguard battalion of more than 5,000 people in his hands, and he is the most elite under Zhao Wouji." In the past two days, he has been following Zao Wou-Ki to Tuolunwei to attend the White Lotus Pope's meeting, and it is estimated that there will be big news in a few days. ”

"Good!" Lian Zining was overjoyed, suddenly stood up, and said excitedly: "Li Tie, Niu Dazhang has made a great contribution, and your MI6 has made a great contribution!" This official will definitely remember it clearly for you in his heart. ”

This is indeed a great variable that he didn't expect, originally he was still at a loss as to how to deal with the White Lotus Sect, but now, with an internal response, and it is an internal response with a high status, there are many things that are much easier to do, and the thoughts in front of him are also suddenly clear.

"Your Excellency praised it." Li Tie hurriedly said humbly: "Then now, how should Niu Dazhang act?" ”

"This?" Lian Zining pondered for a moment and said categorically: "Don't give him orders!" You give Niu Dazhang a message, make him forget that he is a member of the Wu Yijun, and regard himself as a member of the White Lotus Sect, honestly do his duty, what should he do, and take loyalty to the White Lotus Sect as his own responsibility. Tell him that the better he does and the higher he climbs, it is the greatest reward for his own officials and Wu Yijun! ”

He paused, and said with a gloomy face: "When necessary, we can even make some losses to make Niu Dazhang make contributions." ”

"Yes, I see." For Lian Zining's thoughts. Li Tiexin understood and hurriedly responded.

"Don't contact Niu Dazhang easily. lest his identity be revealed. Tell him that it's not a very important thing. Don't take the initiative to contact and protect yourself. In addition, in the future, it shall not be mentioned in the Niu Dazhang, and it shall be replaced by No. 1. ”

"Yes!"

Lian Zining said again: "Strengthen the monitoring of those three parties, and in addition, send additional people to keep an eye on Fu Yuwei for me." ”

"Fu Yuwei?"

"That's right." Lian Zining smiled coldly: "The territory under the jurisdiction of the general of Liaobei is close to Fuyuwei, and that Great Khan has always been an ambitious master. He will definitely not let go of this opportunity, it depends on when he wants to intervene! I can't say it, this person is still trying to calculate me! ”

Li Tie responded and said, "My lord, you explained the matter of the investigation under the mark, and you are also a little eyebrows." ”

"Oh?" Lian Zining frowned, and said, "In our jurisdiction, we have also mixed into the White Lotus Sect?" ”

Li Tie nodded with a somewhat ugly face: "Not only did they get in, but there were quite a few." After receiving the order from the adults, he immediately sent capable men to infiltrate various places, search carefully, and inquire and listen. Sure enough, a lot of clues were found, especially among the untouchables. ”

"Then catch it!"

A murderous aura flashed on Lian Zining's face, and he said categorically: "After you catch it." One solution to Zhenyuan Mansion! The judge will judge them himself, but I will see with my own eyes. He gave them seed for the fields, and houses for the ploughing of the oxen. Let them get rid of their status as untouchables, not only are they not grateful to their officials, but they are colluding with those White Lotus Sect traitors and want to cause trouble? Want to rebel?! Don't they believe in some kind of childless mother, vacuum hometown? Okay, this official will fulfill them! Let them go to their vacuum home! ”

These words were so murderous that Li Tie couldn't help but shudder when he heard it.

"You just tell your subordinates to do this, but there is one thing that you have to do yourself." Lian Zining beckoned, whispered to Li Tie, and said, "You must supervise this matter yourself, understand?" ”

Li Tie's face was heard several times, but a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he said: "I'm awake under the mark, don't worry!" ”

"Hmm." Lian Zining nodded deeply and let Li Tie retreat.

After a while, Lian Zining, surrounded by a group of guards, took Hong Chaojiao and Shi Kai out of the General's Mansion and went straight to the Mining Supervision Bureau.

―――――――― Dividing Line――――――

In the past, the central Jurchen town of Haixi was far away from the town of Yuanfu, and it was Salhu.

The county seat of Salhu has been completed, the city is high and the pond is deep, and the county seat in the Guannai is a completely different form.

The whole county seat is not big, only about two miles long, less than one and a half miles wide, and its size is about the same as a slightly larger town in Guannei, compared with a general county seat, such as Le× Ling × County, where Lian Zining once stayed, there is a considerable gap. But the city wall is four zhang high, the thickness of about two zhang, are repaired with rammed earth mixed with specially fired bricks, the female wall above, the corner tower, the city pass saucer mouth are all available, there is a circle of moat with three zhang wide outside the city, the inside is to attract the living water, at this time the spring ice and snow melt, the water rises sharply, the moat water flows in a hurry, and there are some fish from time to time.

On the periphery of the city, about 100 meters away from the city itself, a battle fortress was built in the northeast, northwest, southeast, and southwest directions. The battle fortress is not large, only twenty meters in diameter, but the city wall is also three zhang high, crouching there like a giant beast. Such a battle fort is enough to accommodate 200 soldiers, and with the defenders on the city wall, as long as there is sufficient food, a thousand households with more than 1,700 troops stationed in Salhu is enough to support five or six times the enemy's siege for more than a month.

It is easy to see that this city was built in full accordance with military needs.

In fact, it is precisely like this, Salhu is in a key position. If you look at the map, you will find that this is the easternmost point of the entire area controlled by the Wu Yi Army, and further east are the wild Jurchens and other ethnic minorities in the endless dense forests on the north bank of the Songjiang River, these ethnic minorities are powerful and fierce, and some have even established a regime like a small kingdom. The place where Salhu was guarded was to guard against them.

The former commander of the 18th Guard, Zhang Qiu, lived up to Lian Zining's personal entrustment, and perfected the project very carefully, and more than 10,000 people took almost half a year to complete the project, which is also a miracle. (To be continued.) )
