"I don't stop being a national prince, I really owe him the old Zhu family. When I took a concubine, the emperor got married, I was an angel, I guarded the cave room when he entered the cave room, and I didn't see Yu'er and Xue'er until the next day after they passed the door. Today is Wen Xin's door, I have to come to choose a horse for the princess, alas, Wen Xin has suffered too much for me, I have to go back early if I say anything today, I can't let an immortal worship the hall for me and enter the cave room, right? ”

Yang Ling held his chin in his hand, propped his elbows on the table, and with a harmless and kind expression, he watched every school-age young man on stage report his identity and family background, and perform a talent on the spot, neither nodding nor shaking his head.

Shou Ninghou and Bi Gonggong didn't know that this grandfather didn't say a word, but they looked like they were smiling, they were not satisfied, so they had to come forward on behalf of the chief election officer and decide on their own selection personnel, anyway, this is the first batch of interviews, and it is still very early before the results of the general election, Yang Ling no longer continued to shake his head, and the selection conditions were relaxed a lot, and after a while, more than ten people who passed the primary election were led to the back hall.

Gao Wenxin is very understanding, she understands that she can be allowed to be a flat wife by the young lady, more than half of the reason is that she cured Yang Ling's chronic illness, and Yu'er and Xue'er will not be dissatisfied with this. But although they are sisters with a few people, it is impossible to say that there is no pimple in their hearts in this kind of thing.

If Yang Ling makes a big fanfare, relatives and friends, and all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty come to congratulate, especially if he is now in the position of the Duke of the Kingdom, and the Emperor will also give him a gift if he marries his wife, Yutangchun and the two of them don't say anything, and it is strange that they don't make a sour heart in their hearts. Therefore, Gao Wenxin repeatedly said to Yang Ling that she had already entered the door, and there was no reason to marry again, so she simply made up for the ceremony of the husband and wife's visit.

Yang Ling is now married into the door with two wives and two concubines, but there has never been a real happy event, including this time Gao Wenxin entered as a flat wife, unless he accepts his wife again in this life, it is a thought, Yang Ling expects that it will be impossible to marry a wife again, since he does not do much marriage, Wenxin has these scruples, he simply did not notify his subordinates, and only handed a message to Han Wei, Yang Yunlong, Yang Shen and other relatives and friends, and asked them to come to the door to drink.

In half an hour, they should almost set off for Yang's Mansion, discuss with them in a while, or disperse first, how to choose these little hairy children is like that, either they are naïve and young, if there is really a young man who is old, he looks at it and is full of scheming and does not like people.

Thinking of this, Yang Ling yawned boredly, his mouth was not closed, and the guy standing in front of the stage immediately bent down and saluted, and asked blankly, "My lord, what do you want to ask?" ”

"I asked", is this eyesight still a horse? As soon as Yang Ling waved his hand, he only said one sentence, and the lofty ambition and beautiful blueprint of this good young man were all in vain: "Go down!" ”

Yang Ling ignored the person's face as if he was mourning, and whispered to Shou Ninghou and Bi Gonggong: "Zhang Houye, Bi Gonggong, I see that it is not early, and after seeing twenty or thirty people, it will almost stop, and I will continue to choose again, how about it?" ”

The two hurriedly arched their hands and said: "Listen to the orders of the national prince."

Yang Ling noticed that a personal soldier on the left side of the stage quietly gestured to him, so he nodded and said, "Okay, the two of you are affected, I'll go and make it easier."

He used the excuse to slip off the stage. When the man saw Yang Ling get off the stage, he turned around and walked away first, there were many large and small rooms in the 'Zhuwang Pavilion', and the two of them arrived at a secluded house one after the other, and the inseparable Liu Dabang mallet stood at the door, and Yang Ling flashed into the room.

This person's name is Xia Xiaowen, he has been following Yang Ling's personal soldiers since the Shenji Battalion, and after so many days of training and edification, he has long been a one-sided figure, and he is responsible for quite a lot of things under Yang Ling.

He said in a low voice: "Grandpa, Liu Jin has asked for the holy decree, and the inner factory has really been reassigned to the supervision of the celebrity, Liu Jin is now sitting in a sixteen-lift sedan chair, and is leading people to catch up with Xishan, and it seems that he will take over all the affairs of the inner factory by surprise immediately."

Yang Ling smiled slightly: "It's all up to him." Big stall head, what did Governor Wu say? ”

Xia Xiaowen also smiled and said: "The factory supervisor said that everything is ready, and he is looking forward to Liu Gonggong to take over this mess, and he, the new factory supervisor, has suffered a lot with his grandfather, so he just took this opportunity to take a break and go home with his grandson."

Yang Ling laughed, thought for a while, and said: "Lord Cheng must have received the news that I am safe and sound now, and immediately send another order, telling her not to enter Beijing, Lord Yu is now in Yangzhou, let Yu Yong go to see her, do the things that should be handed over, and then return to Jinling immediately, Jiangnan is the focus of our future development, and we must not lose it." ”

Xia Xiaowen hurriedly said: "Yes, the people and horses of the six northern provinces were handed over early, and Old Man Han cut off all contact with the inner factory since yesterday, and the news from the north and your orders will be carried out through the contact channels we established in the military post."

Yang Ling just nodded slightly.

The forces controlled by the inner factory have now been divided into two, the seven southern provinces are handed over to Cheng Qiyun, and the six northern provinces are handed over to Han Lin, and these two major parts include political forces, economic organizations, and secret armed operations, and there are specific responsible personnel in all aspects.

Yang Ling, the focus of the six northern provinces, was placed in Liaodong, and he didn't want to make money in this area, and even at the beginning, in order to quickly open up the situation, a large part of the money made by the inner factory in Jiangnan was invested here, and he did not hesitate to let his eyes and ears spread all over Liaodong and Saiwai, and firmly rooted in this land, just because he knew the threat from China's internal body, such as from the north.

He knew that for the Ming Dynasty, the threat to the future was the Jurchens, but since he came to this era, the world has undergone a little change, and due to his efforts, the development of the Tatars, Warats, Uliangha and Jurchens has deviated from the original history, and the future is uncertain.

No one knows whether the future overlord of the steppe will come from the Jianzhou Jurchens, or whether the current Tatar, Warat and other tribes have a sparse number of small tribes, due to fate, with a few pairs of armor, thirty or fifty people finally became the co-lord of the world. If you can't find a clear opponent, you can only strengthen yourself on the one hand, and weaken the possible enemy on the other hand, and eliminate the danger invisibly.

In order to strengthen himself, it is not feasible to carry out drastic reforms, and he is not sure that he will come up with various concrete national policies that are feasible for the present era.

If you are eager to advance and be the vanguard of reform, you will either be divided by the counterattack forces, or the policy will be too idealistic and turn into a great leap forward that will bring disaster to the country and the people. Boiling frogs in warm water will not cause too much social turmoil, and this kind of reform can have a deep social foundation, and will not find a series of irreconcilable contradictions and conflicts after a rapid march, causing more violent social problems, but in this case, it will take much longer, so you can't accidentally pass these nomads outside the gate. China's danger has come from the north since ancient times, and Yang Ling's efforts here are no less than the attention to the lifting of the ban on the opening of the sea in the south of the Yangtze River.

Yang Ling's use of soldiers has always been that the soldiers and horses have not moved, and the 'grain and grass' go first. In a major campaign, there will never be a whim, relying on some inspiration to drive hundreds of thousands of troops, and pour the country's financial resources to fight an unprepared battle.

If the real decisive battle takes only one month, these preliminary preparations may take a year or even a few years, so that he can seize the opportunity and win the victory.

Xia Xiaowen saw that Yang Ling had no other orders, so he retreated and passed on the order. Yang Ling stopped and let out a long breath: Very good, Liu Jin has already made a move, all my strength has to temporarily enter the stinging period, let this Liu Gonggong perform well without fear, if he doesn't let him jump out and make a big move, he can't let everyone betray his relatives and leave him, and he will be fatal with one blow.

In this way, there is no need to imagine at all, it can be expected that it will cause a disaster to the people and the bureaucrats, but this temporary sacrifice is necessary, if you really fight with him for decades, that kind of soft consumption will be even more fatal, and the long pain is better than the short pain!

On the ancient city of Jimingyi, the cannon that he lit with his own hands, and the stumps and broken arms that flew up in response to the sound, appeared in front of him one by one, Yang Ling shook his head, shook the distracting thoughts in his heart, and walked out to the big stick mallet waiting at the door and said: "Go, ask the people who have passed the primary election in the back hall to write down their calendars and hand them over to Grandpa Bi, and then go back and wait for the notice, and we will go back to the house in a while."

After the "Pavilion of the Kings", across the courtyard, the promising young people who passed the primary selection smiled lovely, greeted each other, laughed heartily from time to time, and hooked their shoulders one by one, looking at the appearance, as if they were biological brothers.

It's just that there are dozens of brothers in this courtyard, and there is only one princess to be married in the Ming Dynasty. If it weren't for the fact that dozens of pairs of eyes were staring, the hand that could not be tied on the neck of the 'brother' would be pinched down, strangled one less and one less.

Yo, another one came in, and the candidate colt looked at it carefully, and a vigilant light suddenly shot out of his eyes, "This kid is more beautiful than me, mother, you have the ability to take the top prize, and you are too shameless to be a colt with us."

At that moment, three more people entered, and one behind him, dressed in a man's robe, was a man in his thirties, not like a conscript. The two in front of him, one tall and one short, are not very old, but the eldest of the family is called a handsome!

Pink makeup, picturesque eyebrows, such a beautiful young man, looking at the entire Beijing Division, I can't find a few, they are also candidates? Do I still have a chance? Damn, you have the ability to take the top prize, and you are too shameless to grab the horse with us.

The two princesses dressed in men's clothes immediately became enemies of the people, and everyone was jealous and hateful, and the gentleness and open-mindedness that pretended to be were all gone. They were all fifteen or sixteen-year-old teenagers, and they didn't have deep scheming, and immediately some people couldn't hold back and started to cause trouble.

"Oh, how can there be such a strong smell of fat powder in life, the eight characters are light, and I was raised as a girl since I was a child, right? , such a person is also embarrassed to choose a colt? Can a princess look down on such a dead shemale? You all say".

"Haha, don't say that, maybe the two little brothers were going to go to the hall to choose a father-in-law, and they accidentally walked through the wrong door." These two teenagers are too threatening to everyone, and all the competitors temporarily stand in the same camp and begin to unite with the outside world.

Yongchun was full of interest and wanted to see which boy in the crowd was so lucky that he might become her brother-in-law, when he suddenly heard such harsh words, he was stunned at first, and then he guessed from the hostile eyes of everyone that the object of ridicule was actually his own sisters.

Princess Yongchun stretched out her index finger and pointed at the tip of her nose, and said in disbelief: "Are you talking about me?" Shemale? Am I a shemale? ”

"Hey, hey, haha", the ridiculous laughter suddenly angered Yongchun, she stared at the almond eyes, and scolded: "Presumptuous, you are so bold, you dare to talk to your father-in-law like this, do you want to slap your mouth?" ”

"Hahaha, are you fourteen, little brother, come to choose a colt with a milky voice, the hair hasn't grown yet, right?" Mai's second son of the owner of Mai's garment workshop, Mai Ziwei, frowned and said.

It's just a contemptuous word, but this Mai Ershao has caused a big disaster.

The one in front of her is a princess, and she is the little princess of Yongchun in her cardamom years. The body has just developed, the shallow path is embarrassing, just a few stalks of fragrant grass, I don't know why Xiao Yongchun, who has long hair there, even ran to ask her sister in fright and fright the day before yesterday, and now she is so sensitive to this sentence "The hair has not grown yet" is so sensitive that she can't be more sensitive.

Yongchun's face was as red as chicken blood, his two apricot eyes were round, and he scolded sharply: "You filthy dog! Looking for a fight! ”

Don't look at her as a little girl's family, she bows and beats in the palace on weekdays, she is very lively, her surname is the most like Zhu Houzhao among the three brothers and sisters, and from time to time she practices two flower fists and embroidered legs with the palace guards, the palace guards like this little princess very much, and she has the heart to teach her, but she is just fun, how can she really practice that thing.

It's rare that this little princess has a sweet mouth, and one by one 'Master Zhang' and 'Master Li', those guards racked their brains to think of some Yin damage tricks that specifically attack other people's vital joints and pass them on to her, which can be regarded as the most primitive women's self-defense technique.

She stepped forward, her slender palm thrust into it, and there was a 'Erlong grabbing the pearl, and two pointed fingers pierced Mai Ershao's eyes, so bluffing that Mai Ziwei raised his hand to stop it. Princess Yongchun's left hand was clenched, and she took the opportunity to take the opportunity to take a look at the man's chest and abdomen is a 'tiger digging out the heart', this time the strength is not great, but it is hitting between the chest and abdominal diaphragm, and the place where the sun meridians that martial artists often say is concentrated, all of a sudden Mai Ershao curled up on the ground like a me, his limbs twitched, and he couldn't breathe.
