Chapter 732: What is a vassal king?

The prince with only one word in the title is the most valuable, and the status of the prince who has been divided since the founding of the country is obviously different, but it is only different. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the palace, the leader of the eunuchs is called the leading eunuch, and the word eunuch is just called the king behind closed doors, and if you want to take it outside, this title is not counted.

The palace does not have the power to recruit eunuchs, all of them are allocated by the imperial court, this eunuch is almost the foreman leader sent by the palace, of course, what this eunuch does is also monitoring and spying, the Ming court is wary of the vassal kings in various places to a certain extent, even if it is now the appearance of raising pigs, but still arrange people to keep an eye on it.

Although this eunuch is also humble and polite in front of the masters of the palace, even when he sees the concubine of this generation of Wang Shizi, he must be respectful and polite.

But the top and bottom didn't dare to get carried away because of this politeness, that is, the matter of Jiajing Year, there were two county kings because of the scandalous things that the eunuchs around them sued them, one was forced to deal with the crime, and the other was forced to commit suicide.

The acting king said angrily, "add chaos", but this Liu Gengsu had to invite in, the eunuchs in the palaces everywhere will not be too old, because of the frequent changes, almost three or four years to change a group of people, this Liu Gengsu is in his thirties, thin and lean, but after coming in, he gave greetings to the acting king, the princess and the prince.

"Hurry up and report something, there are important matters to discuss here"

The princess said impatiently, Liu Gengsu agreed, then raised her head and stood up straight, the acting king squinted her eyes, on weekdays, Liu Gengsu said everything with a smile, why is he so cold today.

"The prince is a thousand years old, the princess is a mother, the prince is a prince, the slave and maid of the Huang family business house already know about it today, please prince a thousand years old, how do you want to deal with this matter?"

The princess, who was already a little annoyed by Liu Gengsu's sudden attitude of not being soft or hard, was the first to speak:

"This kind of thing, is it also what you, a slave, can intervene in, don't forget your duty, get down, even if someone in the palace supports you, the palace can also do family law to you."

Liu Gengsu's face froze, but a sneer appeared, and he immediately said:

"Our family went out tonight, but we were called to our father-in-law, and I told the prince and the princess here that if there is anything wrong with the Huang family's firm, our family will have to write an excerpt to go to Beijing, and the Ming Dynasty palace and the Tartars have already colluded."

It is already a self-proclaimed family, what is the duty of this, but the three members of the Wang family, but they can't say a word, hearing a commotion on the side, the prince of the acting king accidentally touched the tea bowl at hand on the ground, but the thick carpet on the ground was not broken, and the eunuchs and palace maids who were waiting outside didn't even have a probe to see, so it can be seen that Liu Gengsu has already ordered.

“…… Father-in-law Liu, you also have a 10% dry stock in the commercial bank, and Father-in-law Liu has tens of thousands of taels in the past three or four years..."

"Why don't we know, but there are receipts, but there are vouchers, don't keep an account book at home, just come here to spew blood, our family knows a lot of things, for example, a certain county king covets the beauty of the daughter of the distant branch clan, and marries a concubine, for example, a certain county king likes male style and forces a few boys to death......"

Liu Gengsu has only been on an errand in the Acting Wangfu, he knows what the county king, presumably it is the sons of the acting king, so to speak, the faces of the acting king and his wife have changed, Liu Gengsu has been on an errand here for a long time, although it is also the same as the previous rules, giving such and such benefits, but there are also a lot of private and important things to know, these things are really going to the Beijing Division, I am afraid that the upper and lower parts of the acting king's mansion, together with the several county kings who have been divided, will be taken away and imprisoned, and it is not impossible to be ordered to commit suicide.

Brocade clothes and jade food, rich and noble life, to suddenly have nothing, how can people stand it, the expressions of the three kings changed, and in the end, the king laughed dryly, and said:

"Gonggong Liu is joking here again, the Huang family firm's miscellaneous things are hiding from this king, and today I learned that naturally I can't condone it, Wang Tong punished it, if there is someone who is put back, this king will not be soft."

"Lord ......"

As soon as the princess said a word, she was forced back by the stern gaze of the acting king, but the acting prince who shrank aside endured it for a long time, and still spoke:

"Gonggong Liu, he Wang Tong is just a Jinyi guard commander Tongzhi, the acting prince is the prince, you, and ......"

Liu Gengsu had already lowered his head, made a respectful appearance again, and said softly there:

"The prince is a thousand years old, the princess and the princess, the slave and maid have finished their report, so they will retire first"

After saying this, when he stepped back, he seemed to be answering, and he said as if talking to himself:

"Datong is just a rural place, if you stay here for a long time, your horizons will be small, I don't know how big the world is, what kind of character Wang Tong is......"

After Liu Gengsu pushed it out, although the hall was still warm, it seemed to be much colder, and the three people in the hall were speechless.

Liu Gengsu's godfather is Xu Wen, the supervisor of Datong Town, which is also the practice of eunuchs sent abroad, in addition to having a foundation in the palace, he always has to have a relationship with the person with the highest official rank outside, and put a godfather, Datong Town Supervisor is naturally the highest status in each position, but Liu Gengsu worshiped this Xu Wen in the palace, and after Xu Wen was released, he was directly arranged in the palace.

One of the king's favorite concubines was ordered to commit suicide because she was not allowed to be a woman, and a woman died in the palace, and the magistrates generally pretended not to know, and God knows what disgusting and dirty things were involved.

But the news spread quickly, this pet Ji surnamed Zhi, is the sister of the Huang family business house shopkeeper Zhi Wanchang, of course, the real sister and the fake sister don't know, this is also a rumor in the market, everyone knows that Zhi Wanchang climbed up in the Huang family business house because of this relationship.

Originally, the revenge of the Dai Wangfu that everyone expected was not a move, but the Dai Wangfu itself dealt with the people who had a relationship with the Huang family firm.

What does this mean, the acting king's mansion bowed to Wang Tong, no, to be more precise, it was the acting king's mansion kowtowing to Wang Tong, what kind of energy does this Qincha have, and it can actually do this.

Speculation is all kind, but everyone doesn't dare to have any luck, everyone understands why the most powerful governor of Xuanda has not behaved after Wang Tong took office, it seems that he already knows what kind of character Wang Tong is, and he is really an old fox.

Wang Tong's orders in Datong City, have been the most complete and efficient implementation, the Huang family firm in the city and outside the city accumulated military assets with a cart sent to Datong right guard, some unwanted materials are sold on the spot, the price is only seventy percent of the market price, Shanxi is a place of heavy business, businessmen are well-thought-in, the seventy percent of the price can show that everyone has a big cheap to earn, when selling, Taiyuan Mansion and Pingyang Mansion have businessmen rushed over, it didn't take much effort to be snatched up, no one dared to ask for the store, afraid of something repeated, But this cargo is loved by everyone.

Instead of selling goods, the blacksmith shop and the carpenter of the craftsman's shop under the Huang family firm were also requisitioned, and the craftsmen went to Datong Youwei together, but no one cared about this.

At the end of November, the weather is getting colder, Wang Tong also got the news that the Huwei army has entered Taiyuan Mansion, more than a month, this march is decent, if you count the time to assemble and raise materials, it is very fast.

However, Tianjin Wei has accumulated a large amount of materials, and there are four-horse carts with much stronger weight capacity than ordinary carriages, so it will naturally be very fast.

The 20,000 soldiers and horses on the Jizhen side are estimated to be about twenty days later than the Huwei Army, which is also good, making people sigh at the elite soldiers and horses trained by Qi Jiguang.

With this news, Wang Tong also rushed to Datong right guard to preside over military affairs, the deputy general Ma Dong had already gone there a month ago, Qin sent off, Datong City officials had to go to see off, according to the regulations, on behalf of the Wangfu also sent a messenger.

After saying those etiquette and congratulatory words, Wang Tong replied according to etiquette, and added another sentence:

"Although this official is not in Datong City, he is still the governor of Datong, please remember."

Some people were stunned, some people understood, Datong Governor Mei Wenjin was going to rush to Datong's right guard in half a month according to the rules, but he understood, and hurriedly said:

"Please rest assured, everyone here will save it."

Wang Tong nodded, went out and got on the horse, the guards were already ready, and a cadre of people kicked the dust away, saying that everyone understands, but in fact there are still people who don't understand, so they have to ask at this time.

“…… Qin Cha said that he was not in Datong, and all the rules should be according to his time, otherwise he would come back and clean up his guilt......"

This is what everyone understands, and everyone is awe-inspiring.

No one dares to kill people in the street, and no one dares to rebel at will, because everyone knows the authority of the imperial court and the power of the imperial court.

In the territory controlled by the Ota tribe on the steppe, especially in the core of the city of Naturalization, the bandits and horse thieves of the steppe would never appear here, which was also a sign of deterrence and strength, even though it was one of the most prosperous trade routes on the steppe.

However, the news that the caravan of the Ming Dynasty and the caravan of the Alta Department had been looted had begun to spread, and in the eyes of outsiders, this was a sign of the weakening of the strength and authority of the Alta Ministry, and horse thieves began to gather, and even small tribes gathered to see if they could make some gains here.

The grassland north of the border wall of Datong Town was even more chaotic, and the cavalry of the Alta Division was dispatched more frequently......
