Emperor Chongzhen looked at Zhou Yingqiu with some amusement, and said slowly: "I didn't expect Aiqing to know so much about the talents in the world, so I don't need to check the old files of the ministry." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Okay! The person I am looking for is called Xu Guangqi, I don't know if Aiqing has heard of it? ”

Hearing Emperor Guangqi's words, Zhou Yingqiu's heart sank slightly, he knew that he was afraid that he was in trouble. Sure enough, when he heard Emperor Guangqi's question, he was stunned, Xu Guangqi, who is this person?

The officials in charge of the world in the Ministry of Officials, I don't know how many names are ringing in my ears every day, if it is not for the officials of the court, it is difficult to enter Zhou Yingqiu's heart. Besides, Xu Guangqi is a person who likes to study more than being an official, and such a person has never been in a high position, how can Zhou Yingqiu remember it.

As soon as he wanted to ask to check the files, Zhou Yingqiu saw Emperor Chongzhen's playful smile, and suddenly remembered what he had just said, and suddenly blushed, and said with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty, wait a minute, the minister will go and let people check." ”

Emperor Chongzhen nodded noncommittally, it seems that he can't wait for this old guy to resign by himself, and he has to find a way to let him get out of here. This is a ministry, with such a fool, what kind of good officials can be elected?

Thinking of this, Zhou Yingqiu thought of Wei Zhongxian, and it seemed that Wei Zhongxian couldn't keep it.

Not long after, a scribe from the Ministry of Officials came in with a dossier and said to Zhou Yingqiu: "My lord, I found it." ”

Before Zhou Yingqiu could speak, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't wait to say, "Read." ”

The scribe glanced at Emperor Chongzhen and thought to himself, what is the identity of this young man? How dare you speak like this. subconsciously glanced at Zhou Yingqiu beside him, and in his impression, this adult has a great official authority. But at this time, Zhou Yingqiu stood aside, said a word, and glanced at himself from time to time.

Seeing the appearance of the scribe, Emperor Chongzhen frowned slightly, at this time, Emperor Chongzhen's heart was anxious to know where Xu Guangqi was, and he had no patience. Besides, he was just a scribe, and Emperor Chongzhen didn't even bother to look at it, and he wouldn't have any patience to look at his expression.

Seeing the appearance of Emperor Chongzhen, Wang Chengen suddenly came to the side of the scribe, took the file in his hand and opened it, and read: "Xu Guangqi, the word is first, and he is from Shanghai County, Songjiang Prefecture, Nanzhili. In the thirty-second year of Wanli, the last official position was Henan Province Imperial History Training Tongzhou, and he had resigned due to illness. ”

Because he knew that Emperor Chongzhen was anxious, Wang Chengen did not procrastinate, and after confirming that it was Xu Guangqi's file, he read the last one.

After listening to Wang Chengen's words, Emperor Chongzhen frowned once, only knowing that he was from Shanghai, but no one knew where he was now.

"Your Majesty, the old slave has a note." Wang Chengen saw the appearance of Emperor Chongzhen, and knew that this emperor was unhappy again, so he hurriedly offered a flattering word.

"Say." Listening to Wang Chengen's words, Emperor Chongzhen was immediately overjoyed, he must find Xu Guangqi as soon as possible, and if he finds it a day earlier, his chances of turning the tables will increase a lot.

The old slave thought that this Lord Xu was serving in Beitong Prefecture, and he was leaving his post due to illness, so he thought that he would return to Shanghai County to recuperate. Or is it to recuperate in Beitongzhou, but Jinyi Wei can check this person, but I don't know after His Majesty finds him? Although Wang Chengen didn't know why Emperor Chongzhen valued this Xu Guangqi so much, as long as the emperor valued him, he couldn't help but be a lot more polite to Xu Guangqi.

Emperor Chongzhen nodded slowly, and what Wang Chengen said made sense, so he said to a guard beside him: "Go and find Tian Ergeng." ”

Although Tian Ergeng is Wei Zhongxian's person, one of the five biao, known as Wei Zhongxian's eldest child, Emperor Chongzhen did not take him to heart. It's just a minion, who makes himself unhappy, and doesn't have his good fruit to eat.

It didn't take long for Tian Ergeng to come to the Yamen of the Ministry of Officials, at this time this military attache can be said to be a servant of the dust, it seems that this commander is very busy during this time! Or in other words, he spent time in fear, Emperor Chongzhen imprisoned Wei Zhongxian, and Tian Ergeng was also shocked three times a day.

Hearing Emperor Chongzhen's summons, Tian Ergeng didn't dare to delay in the slightest, and now he is anxious to save his life, it would be best if Emperor Chongzhen could open the net. The ministers of Jinyi Wei are different from the ministers, they are similar to the eunuchs, all of them are the emperor's domestic slaves.

The emperor wants them to die, which is much simpler than executing the minister, and it is basically a matter of one sentence.

"The ministers and the guards are all commanding Tian Ergeng, see my emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live." Tian Ergeng came to Emperor Chongzhen and respectfully saluted.

"Tian Aiqing, get up! Looking at your dusty appearance, I think I'm very tired these days! Emperor Chongzhen looked at Tian Ergeng with a smile and said in a relaxed tone.

"Wechen is ashamed." Tian Ergeng listened to Emperor Chongzhen's words and hurriedly knelt down, it can be said that it is a high honor for a Jinyi guard like him to be praised by Emperor Chongzhen.

"Sit down and talk." Seeing him sit down, Emperor Chongzhen said slowly: "I want to find someone who I don't know if you have any good way?" ”

"It's easy to do! issued a sea fishing document, and Jin Yiwei has countless agents in various places, and he will definitely be caught. After finishing speaking, Tian Ergeng found that the atmosphere in the hall was a little wrong.

As if sensing that Emperor Chongzhen's attitude was wrong, Tian Ergeng set his eyes on Wang Chengen, who was standing aside. Among these people present, he was able to talk to Wang Chengen, and he was an enemy with these Wenchen since the birth of Jinyiwei. The eunuchs will help more or less, of course, falling into the well is another matter.

"I'm not trying to catch him, but I'm looking for him to be useful, it's just that it's too slow through normal channels, and I want to ask you what you can do." Emperor Chongzhen motioned for Wang Chengen to hand Xu Guangqi's file to Tian Ergeng, and said with a smile.

After knowing that he had thought wrong, Tian Ergeng was also a little embarrassed, and after saying that he was ashamed, he looked at Xu Guangqi's file. There are very few records of Xu Guangqi in this regard, only a few strokes, which can be described as extremely simple.

Although I don't know what Emperor Chongzhen is looking for this unknown Xu Guangqi to do, this is not what he should ask, as the emperor's minion often asks less and does more.

Putting down the file in his hand, Tian Ergeng pondered for a moment and said, "It won't be too difficult to find this Lord Xu. Since he knew that his last term was in Beitongzhou, it would be easy to do. The minister can send someone to Beitongzhou overnight, I believe that someone there should know where he is, and His Majesty will leave this matter to the minister! ”

Emperor Chongzhen looked at Tian Ergeng, and he was still very satisfied in his heart, looking at Tian Ergeng's attitude was quite serious, and now it depends on his ability. Dare to pack tickets in such a short time, I believe there are some means.

"In this way, after finding Xu Guangqi, he will be ordered to enter Beijing immediately." Emperor Chongzhen nodded to Tian Ergeng, agreeing with his method, and then turned to Wang Chengen and said, "After Xu Guangqi comes, take him into the palace, don't stop him." ”

"It's Your Majesty, the minister will do it!" At this time, Tian Ergeng was secretly happy in his heart, if this matter was done well, it would obviously leave a good impression on Emperor Chongzhen, and maybe he could go further.

Seeing Tian Ergeng's impatient appearance, Emperor Chongzhen didn't speak, just smiled and nodded at him. Glancing at Zhou Yingqiu next to him, Emperor Chongzhen said to Wang Chengen: "Let's go!" Return to the palace. ”

Without waiting for Zhou Yingqiu to see the ceremony, Emperor Chongzhen left, believing that he could understand the meaning of his words, what Emperor Chongzhen had to do now was to choose a suitable official secretary. For this person who is in charge of the world's official hat, you must pick and choose well.

Seeing that Emperor Chongzhen had left, Zhou Yingqiu and Tian Ergeng glanced at each other, their eyes full of worry.

Tianjin Wei, Niujia Village.

Niujia Village is a very ordinary village on the border of Weibian, Tianjin, and like all villages, there are people who rest at sunrise and sunset. It's different from many other villages, because the people here have happy smiles on their faces.

All the people in Niujia Village are tenants, because the land in Niujia Village belongs to one person, and the village does not know what his name is, and everyone calls him Xu Laohan.

Although the years have not been very good, but because Xu Laohan does not collect rent, and the government does not come here to collect taxes, this makes the village here live very well. Although it is not rich, it is also worry-free.

Xu Laohan is very good at farming, although he doesn't look like an old man in the countryside, he brought something called sweet potato, the yield is very high, and basically every family in Niujia Village has been planting sweet potatoes in recent years. Listening to Xu Laohan, once the entire Ming Dynasty is planted with sweet potatoes, then no one in the Ming Dynasty will be hungry.

The common people can't understand Xu Laohan's big ambition, but they also know that it is a good thing and a great merit that no one is hungry, and they are more in awe of Xu Laohan.

At this time, the sun has finished the day's road and is about to set, and the smoke of cooking is also wafting in the mountain village, making this mountain village seem quiet and serene.

At this moment, there was a sudden dust not far away, and a team of horses quickly ran towards the village. I didn't know how the group was dressed until I ran in, but after seeing it, all the village names hurriedly closed the door and stopped leaving the house.

There are only a dozen people in this pair, wearing flying fish suits, embroidered spring knives on their waists, and they are serious eight hundred brocade guard captains. After the group of people came to the village, they all grabbed their horses, and the leader of them said: "Smash open the door and ask, where does Xu Guangqi live?" ”

"Yes, Senho-sama." The people who followed behind him quickly turned over and dismounted, came to the door of the house, and slammed the fence door vigorously, while shouting loudly: "Come out, I have something to ask you, otherwise we will go in." ”

Under the repeated urging of Jin Yiwei, the door of the house slowly opened, and an old farmer in his fifties walked out, trembling and came to the door. kowtowed to Jinyiwei and these people, and said cautiously: "My lord, Xiao Lao'er didn't break the law, I don't know why I was looking for Xiao Lao'er?" ”
