Because of the pregnancy of Sister Chiyo, I am afraid that this trip to Yunnan will not be possible, but why did Uncle Guo just bring Sister Chiyo by his side, to put it bluntly, it is also for the sake of the heir, now that he has it, it can be regarded as a complete merit, so he left Sister Chiyo in Guangzhou, and left two thousand Kyushu soldiers with her. On this day, Uncle Guo finally set out from Guangzhou and went to Yunnan with 3,000 Kyushu soldiers and more than 2,000 newly recruited Franc mercenaries.

For the departure of the national uncle, the prefect of Guangzhou, Bo Jie, was surprised and delighted, he is now also a benefit, this time in Beijing, the examination must be a superior, the official uniform must be able to change into a scarlet robe, if nothing else, it should be sent to Hu Guangyou to participate in politics, compared to his brother Bo Jia, who was a waiter in the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, but he has more real power, if he is lucky, he may not participate in politics for a few years, and he can also move up, and taste the taste of a political envoy or governor.

However, Uncle Guo has been staying in Guangzhou is also a piece of Bo Zhifu's heart, and they all know that Uncle Guo is a person who can toss, in case something happens in Guangzhou, his dream of being promoted to become rich will not be realized, and the current overall situation, but stability overshadows everything, so Uncle Guo is extremely happy to leave him.

When sending off the officials, the local elders would stop the sedan chair and take off the boots on the hands of the outgoing officials on the spot and raise them high, meaning that they would not go to stay in office.

I have to say that the language and art of the Celestial Empire are above all countries, like the resignation of an official. It's called hanging up boots, like local scholars making trouble, it's called broken boots, like keeping outgoing officials, it's called taking off boots......

Governor Bo is still very capable, and Uncle Guo is in Guangzhou, so he can be regarded as picking everyone to make a fortune. Therefore, the prefect of Bo used a small trick and advocated a plan on the day that Uncle Guo left Guangzhou. Thousands of people in Guangzhou City are empty, and the crowd of people who keep the national uncle and the governor are discharged for more than ten miles, and the local elders are not putting incense on the table. It was to set up a banquet, either a lion dance, or a gong and drum, one after another white-haired elders holding wine bowls, or tears or howling, to stop the governor, and then someone stepped forward to rip off Uncle Guo's boots......

The good official is not a fool, he naturally knows about this boot ceremony, but he didn't expect that there are so many people, he is not a person who likes to drink very much. However, at this moment, it is like a play, you do it, you have to do it. If you don't do it, you have to do it, you can only sing hard, and if you don't go halfway, you are already handsome and red, and you are full of alcohol......

It was a whole day out of town. It can be regarded as leaving an anecdote in the "Guangzhou Mansion Chronicles", saying: In the spring of the fifteenth year of Wanli, Zheng Guofan, the governor of the five armies, traveled, and the people of Guangzhou took off their boots to send each other, took off their boots and left their love, the local elders wept for wine, tens of thousands of people flocked to it, and the crowd stretched for more than ten miles, and the things that had not been seen in the Chengben Dynasty were also ......

Kuang Yongmei, the governor of the capital, waited for a whole day, and finally sent Uncle Guo away, and it was a long sigh of relief, and he said that he finally sent this ancestor away, so he thought about returning to Beijing, as for the little eunuch Li En next to him, he stayed and occupied the position of the eunuch in Guangzhou, and he also got this position after drilling holes for a long time.

Before leaving, he called Li En, and Haosheng instructed: Li En, godfather, I have also been active for a long time to find this errand for you, you should know that you are the eunuch of Guangzhou City and the manager of Zhuchi, in order to earn money for the ancestors in the palace, and Hugh has to bear the hard work of the ancestors...... Ancestor Admiral Dongchang, there are many eyes and ears, although you are cautious in doing things, godfather, I want to remind you again, you should reach out, you should not reach out......

At this point, the meaning is still unfinished, but Kuang Gonggong is not talking, although Li En is young, he is also a top-notch person, and he knelt on the ground with a puff and said: "Godfather is at ease, the son will definitely earn money for the godfather and the ancestors, if there are two hearts, the sky will hit five thunders." ”

Kuang Yongmei nodded with satisfaction, a smile appeared on her white and fat face, she bent down and stretched out her hand to help him up, and then sighed again, "I don't know how Lu Shou's little cub is by Uncle Guo's side." Next to him, Li En lowered his head and supported Kuang's father-in-law's arm, but in his heart, he wished that Lu was hit by that kid and his uncle was chopped off with a knife, so as to save his godfather's favor.

These two eunuchs naturally didn't know that the father-in-law of the little furnace had already been the person of the imperial concubine, in the words of later generations, that is, undercover, how could he suffer from the uncle who knew it!

Gossip aside, Uncle Guo traveled all the way through the state, and in early March, he entered Yunnan.

The first generation of Qianguo Gong is the adopted son of Emperor Taizu, posthumously presented to the King of Qianning, the descendants of the era of guarding Yunnan, his family is based on the green lake, generations of willow herding horses, increase the pavilions and pavilions, gradually become a huge building complex, the market is commonly known as Mu Wangfu.

It is said that the Duke of Qianguo is a super-grade Guogong, and there is the seal of the general of Zhengnan cast by Zhu Gaochi of Renzong at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

However, this generation of Qianguo Gong is a special case, this person is both high-flying and timid as a mouse, he once whipped Zuojiang Bingbei Yang Yinqiu, this Yang Yinqiu is a dignified Jinshi background, a Wenchen, countless in the same year, he did this It is equivalent to slapping Wenchen, and as a result, he was impeached and had to give up the position of Guogong to his son, and as a result, his son was not angry, Tusi rebelled to break the city, and even lost the seal of the house, so he was imprisoned, and he had to sit in the position of Qianguo Gong again, It wasn't until the year of the Apocalypse that he unloaded the burden of this Duke of Qianguo to the eldest grandson Mu Qiyuan.

And when the obedient official went out of Beijing, he went out of Beijing in the name of quelling the rebellion in Yunnan, that is, he was actually an angel, which is the so-called title of hanging Qin.

Coupled with the Yongchangwei rebellion, the Duke of Qianguo was charged, so he was able to pull down his face, personally went out of the city to greet Uncle Guo, and welcomed Uncle Guo to his own Guogong Mansion.

The obedient official respects him as a senior, and he goes out of the city to greet him, of course, to give this face, the two sides are very happy to talk with the guest and the host, and in the evening the mansion of the Qianguo Mansion held a grand banquet to wash the dust for the uncle of the country.

The obedient officials at the table were a little strange, why didn't they see Yunnan Governor Xiao Sixue. Qian Guogong couldn't help but snort coldly, to be honest, he and Xiao Sixue's concept of governance are completely different, and he is a scholar and martial artist, so he naturally can't get together, but he won't say Xiao Sixue's small words at this time, so he will take care of him. The obedient official saw that he was reluctant to talk about it, and when he smiled, he also saw some civil and military posture that was not in the right way. I didn't mention it.

On the second day, he personally asked Qianguo Gong for two people, the commanders of the former Tengchong and Yao'an battalions. Liu Ling, Deng Zilong.

Liu Ling, whose real name is Gong Ling, the word is shou, the number is provincial, a native of Nanchang, Jiangxi, and the son of Gong (Liu) Xian, a general during the Jiajing period. A famous general in the late Ming Dynasty, known as "Liu Dadao". He has experienced Pingmian Kou, Pingluo Xiong, Pingbei Korea, and Pingbo chieftains. Pinglu, hundreds of battles of all sizes, prestige shocked the sea, "History of the Ming Dynasty" praised it as "the most courageous of the generals", can make the iron knife 120 catties. Immediately rotated like flying, the world called "Liu Dadao", later generations known as "the first fierce general of the late Ming Dynasty", a lifetime of outstanding military achievements, died in the battle of Salhu.

Deng Zilong, the word Wuqiao. The Tiger Crown Daoist, a native of Fengcheng, Jiajing was recruited as a civilian to fight against the Japanese Invaders, and the official was the deputy chief soldier. In the twenty-sixth year of Wanli, the Lingshui army aided the Korean anti-Japanese resistance, and the Korean control made Yi Sunsin as the forward, fought fiercely with the Japanese army in the South China Sea of Busan, and the courage was strong when he was over 70 years old, he fought straight forward, killed the enemy without counting, and Shunchen went to the rescue and died in battle, and the Korean people set up the Dragon Temple to commemorate. Good calligraphy, happy chanting, there is a collection of poems "Hengge Collection" and the art of war "Formation Zhizhi".

These two people are both fierce generals who have gone down in history, and they are also the officers of the renegade battalion, so Uncle Guo naturally wanted to summon them to ask for clarification.

Qian Guogong was a little embarrassed to hear him name these two people, but he was also an old fox, since the court let the sixteen-year-old young uncle in front of him the prime minister of Yunnan to quell the rebellion, he was naturally anxious, his family has been in town for generations, and there is no benefit if the credit is high, and if something happens, he will be punished by the court.

Therefore, he sent someone to find Liu Deng and the others, and when the obedient official looked at the two, he immediately laughed in his heart, no wonder the face of this Qianguo Duke was embarrassed, and now one of the two of them is white, and the other is a big-headed soldier.

Liu Wei was impeached for corruption before, and he had already been deprived of office, and Deng Zilong was the inducement of Yongchangwei's rebellion.

However, in this case, he Zheng Guofan just took advantage of this to gather the two fierce generals, and immediately took out two photos of the military officers from his arms, threw them one by one, and used them as guerrilla generals.

These two fierce generals were surprised and delighted, especially Deng Zilong, it is not an exaggeration to say that he was a guilty person, and now he suddenly gave it to the guerrilla general, how can he not be surprised?

Therefore, the cost of buying the fierce general brother of the Ming Dynasty is greater than that of buying Fusang, such as the fierce general brother of Fusang, giving a garrison or a hundred households or something, it is terrible, and the fart who wants to be happy is upside down, but the fierce general brother who bought the Ming Dynasty, as soon as the obedient official raised his hand, he was from the three guerrillas, this was still when the two of them were very down, and when they changed the usual, if you don't come up with a general soldier, people are not rare at all.

But at this time, the two were indeed smashed, the two are also old acquaintances, and they have confronted each other for a long time, as the saying goes, the person who understands you is often your opponent, the two glanced at each other, knew each other, and immediately went to court to salute, "Humble and listen to the dispatch of the metropolitan governor." ”

Successfully took these two people under his command, and the obedient official carefully asked about the strength of the two battalions of Tengchong and Yao'an, and what powerful Tusi were around Yongchangwei, and who hooked up with the Burmese side...... One by one, but everything is very detailed, ask carefully.

Next to the Duke of Qianguo looked at him coldly, he is a worldly military minister, and he still has a hand in fighting, only then did he find out that this uncle is the governor of the capital, and he is not a layman, but he is also determined for a while, if this uncle has an accident in Yunnan, he will inevitably be affected, if this uncle succeeds in counterinsurgency, he has no merit, then there is hard work, so the interests of the two are temporarily the same.

Here, the uncle and grandfather gathered the generals in Yunnan and prepared grain and grass, and temporarily pressed the table.

It is said that in Ningbo Mansion, at the end of the 14th year of Wanli, Shen Bang, the governor of Ningbo Special Region and the right deputy envoy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, led a cadre of officials such as Zou Ranguan and Wu Yuan, the governor of Ningbo Prefecture, to personally go door-to-door to give tax refunds to merchants, which immediately frightened the merchants of Ningbo Mansion.

The interim measures of Ningbo Mansion promulgated by Lord Shen Bang before had made the entire Ningbo people forget the benefits of this Qingtian Lord and scolded, but. We have to say that human nature is really so sad sometimes, just like the later Tartar Qing court without a head, so inhumane, but then gave a little sweetness that will never be given, and suddenly people forget the previous shame, and I can't wait to be grateful to Dade to praise Sheng Shi Mingjun.

This kind of behavior. In fact, it is a slap to a sweet date, and sadly, the vast majority of people eat this set.

Therefore, Master Shen almost charged taxes for farting before. At this time, a tax refund suddenly came, and the businessmen were immediately uneasy, but Shen Bang didn't care what these businessmen thought. is still a commercial bank to personally tax refund, the attitude can be described as lovely, this is a dignified three-product master, it really gives the businessmen enough face.

Most of the merchants in this era have read books, and some of them thought of Ouyang Xiu, the Duke of Wenzhong in the Song Dynasty, who said: Those who are now a big country have inexhaustible goods, and they are jealous of the profits of the big merchants, and would rather make useless and accumulate into rotten soil, what is it? Therefore, the good businessmen are sorcerers, and they do not hesitate to lure the peddlers. The goodness of the great country is a sorcerer, and he does not hesitate to lure the big businessmen, which is also a technique of benefiting the businessmen and taking a small number of things.

What does this mean? It means that the court is profitable, and the money should not be handed over to the treasury to "accumulate into rotten soil", but should be shared with the people and merchants. This makes the businessman more willing to pay taxes.

Tossed by Master Shen's method of slapping and sweetening dates, the businessmen of Ningbo Mansion immediately became grateful to Dade, and forgot that they had scolded Master Shen before, and they all praised Master Shen for his high style and selflessness.

Immediately, Master Shen used another trick. New Year's money, firewood money, cold food money, children's money, and patch money were distributed to ordinary people...... Although it is impossible to have much money, it is indeed more than enough for the people to go back and buy meat to eat.

These methods are nothing more than obedient officials teaching their own teachers, who will not put on a show when politicians in later generations celebrate the New Year? Why don't you shake hands with the peasants, are you embarrassed to say that you are an official?

Therefore, Shen Bang has a good reputation in Ningbo Mansion, and he has become a Qingtian lord again, and he is also a Qingtian lord who has not been seen in a hundred years.

For a time, Ningbo City praised Master Shen, incidentally, Uncle Guo also received countless praises, which made the Jinghai Hou Mansion up and down the face glorious, like Wang Hu, before Ningbo Xiucai made trouble and said that if you want Chai Miqiang, kill Zheng Guozhang first, Wang Hu, who was still a groom at that time, led a group of servants to beat those tongue chewers on the street, but now? What is the situation?

Sometimes Wang Hu, who is in charge, can't help but learn the tone of a scholar, and the time is also fate.

At the beginning of the new year, as the Marquis of Jinghai's mansion, it was naturally very busy, and all kinds of officials came to the door, but among these people, there was one person, with a square face and squinted eyes, with a money rat tail, and asked to see the head of the backyard, but he wanted to see Tong Xueyue'er, the sister of the commander of Jianzhou Wei, who admitted that he was a slave of the master of the moon.

It is said that today's Hou Mansion is decent, and the body is also erected, as the saying goes, once you enter the Hou Gate, it is as deep as the sea, and the woman in the back house of this Hou Mansion, is that what anyone can see?

However, Aunt Ai, who is in charge of the backyard, is sympathetic to Xue Yue'er's hometown, and she is a straight woman, considering that she is still Uncle Ning Yuan's daughter, so she is extra gracious, so she allowed the slave to ask to see Xue Yue'er.

If the maid next to Aunt Ai didn't understand, she couldn't help but ask, this seems to be out of order! Aunt Ai naturally didn't tell the maid next to her, she saw that this servant had a gold pendant hanging from his waist that was immediately sealed, that thing was bought by her at the beginning, and it was specially used to reward people for good officials outside.

Xue Yue'er naturally can't meet people in the inner house, and now there are many women in the inner house, and they will also attract tongues, she met people in a side hall.

"Slave Yan Worm Year, please say hello to the moon master." The old man with the money rat tail knelt down for Xue Yue'er, Xue Yue'er knew Yan Worm Nian, and he could be used in front of his brother Nu'er Hachi, so he said lightly: "Get up!" My brother asked you to rush to Ningbo, what's the matter? ”

Yan Wormian knelt on the ground and didn't get up, but he looked left and right with his eyes, Xue Yue'er was raised in Li Chengliang's Earl's Mansion since she was a child, how could she not know what this meant, at the moment Liu Mei frowned slightly, and said: "Xiu Belly Pocket and Xiang Liu'er are my intimate maids, and they will inevitably serve Lord Hou in the future, if you have anything to say, just say it!" ”

Xiu belly pocket is to serve Xue Yue'er when she was a child, but Xiang Liu'er was the ninth elder of the Li family, Li Runan lost to Zheng Guofan, Uncle Guo didn't want it, but Li Runan was embarrassed to pay the debt, and personally gave it to Uncle Guo, Uncle Guo looked at this girl and looked like a flower and moon, no wonder Li Runan won a bet with Li Rumei, but there was no shortage of beauties around him, and he had been idle, and then Xue Yue'er came to him, he felt that Xiang Liu'er was also from the Earl's Palace, so he allocated Xiang Liu'er to Xue Yue'er.

These two people are now used by Xue Yue'er, and the show belly pocket is especially full of confidence, as long as Hou Ye comes to Miss's yard and serves by himself, he will finally have the opportunity to let Hou Ye sleep by himself, if it is good luck, pregnant with Hou Ye's species, it is easy to raise Cheng Aunt Cheng, Xiang Liu'er is a little worried, she came out under the hands of the countess, first she was pestered by Li Rumei, the fifth child of the Li family, and the old lady was asked to go, and then, Li Rumei bet and lost to Li Runan, and then Li Runan bet lost to Uncle Zheng Guo...... Therefore, she really has no confidence in her heart.

When she heard Tong Xueyue'er say this, she was immediately moved, and felt that the young lady was amiable and respectable, so she had the heart to die.

The two maids have different minds, but they are both loyal to their own young lady to the next level, in the terms of later games, the original favorability was two and a half stars, and this will become three stars of favorability, and it has risen.

Yan Wormian, who was kneeling in front of him, saw Xue Yue'er say this, and he didn't dare to take it big, and immediately said: "General Zhenguo asked the slave to come to Ningbo to tell the master of the moon that the third lady of Mobei gave birth to a son in Beijing...... The slave got the news that day, and the next day he hurried to Ningbo. ”

Tong Xueyue'er was shocked in her heart, Hou Ye ...... Have a firstborn son?

Although she had an idea in her heart, she couldn't show it obviously, and said lightly at the moment: "So, what does my brother mean?" ”

Yan Wormian raised his head with a smirk on his face and said, "General Zhenguo means that he wants to ask the Moon Master, do you want to fight?" If you want to fight, please ask the lady to come to Ningbo, and always give birth to the blood of the Hou Ye, when the time comes, Niluhan (female straight language, the meaning of Chinese painting, that is, the slave of the Ming Dynasty) is so big, can not give the little master a place to stand! ”

Tong Xueyue'er's face immediately turned purple, she got up in a moment, walked to Yan Worm Nian in a few steps, raised her hand and gave him a big mouth, "Dog minion, did you say this too!" ”

She and Xitara mother and daughter serve the uncle of the country together, how can such things be publicized? At this time, it actually came out of the mouth of the slave in front of her, can Xue Yue'er not be angry! ……)
