Zhu Ping'an took the wooden box in surprise, but Guo Chai's eyes were still as clear as stars, and there was no fear at all. The old man next to him still looked emotional, and there was more relief in his expression.

There was nothing more than a stack of paper sticks in the wooden box, Zhu Ping'an hurriedly looked through a few, and his face gradually became solemn. There are only a few dozen paper sticks, and after checking a cup of tea, Zhu Ping'an exhaled a heavy breath and put the paper sticks back into the wooden box.

"What is the ...... of the prince's move?"

"This is the general account of all the manpower and industries under the command of the prince in Shandong at present, as well as the detailed list and account books, the villain has been sorted out with the shopkeeper Shen, and can be sent to the house at any time!"

"Earlier, the Lord once set up a Sihai Warehouse in Jingshi, which was all managed by Mr. Yin. The prince was very relieved when he learned about it, because of the tense situation at that time, the father-in-law did not dare to interact too much with the adults, so he could only order the villain and others to help. Then the battle of Julu began, the adults sent people to create public opinion in Beijing, and the villain was not talented, so he was ordered by his father-in-law to help with all his might, and then a group of Qingliu led by He Fengsheng in the court was also specially arranged by the prince-in-law! ”

Guo Chai's words were undoubtedly like a bombshell, which immediately shook Zhu Ping'an and the other three into a buzz. For a long time, Zhu Ping'an and others thought that the original plan of the Jingshi was seamless, and the group attacks in the court were all because of Zhou Yanru, but they didn't expect that the operator behind this qiē turned out to be Wang Chengen. His every move, including the inconspicuous things in the Sihai Warehouse, has been all seen by Wang Chengen, if he has the heart to clean himself up, it is simply easy.

There are also these lists and inventories, is this just a huge intelligence network densely spread in Shandong? If the guess is correct, Guo Chai's actions in the past few days are the effect of this huge intelligence network. It is ubiquitous in the civilian and military sectors, where can this be built in a day!

But why did Wang Chengen hand these over to himself, this gift is a little too big!

"What Wang Gonggong means is that if Lord Zhu is too interested in collecting news in Shandong, he can use these manpower and industry. Mr. Yin is quite familiar with this matter, so he might as well entrust it to him, and integrate the Sihai Warehouse with these industries, which will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. Also, my father-in-law also asked the adults not to think too much, the relationship between the father-in-law and the adults will naturally tell you in the future, but now is really not the time. ”

For a while, it was Guo Chai who whispered. And Zhu Ping'an, Yin Shigang, Cao Wuxian and the other three completely fell into a state of chaos.

"This is Shen Mingxian Shen, the chief minister in charge of Shandong affairs under the command of the prince, who has been resident in Shandong for more than ten years, and is quite familiar with the local government, people's feelings, and personnel, and can be Mr. Yin's deputy to handle all affairs. Of course, the specific arrangement depends on the meaning of the adult! ”

"The adult controls the four guards in one fell swoop, and it is imperative to explain the reason to the imperial court, and the specific wording should be clear to the adult, and the villain will not say much. On the contrary, it is the candidate for the next four guards, the adults have to come up with a charter, Yue Jinfeng, Qiu Ze and others can be of great use, after reporting the list to the Jingshi, the guild will find a way to arrange, adults don't have to worry about ......! ”

Guo chased the eloquent talk of no one on the side, and there was no silence after he followed Zhu Ping'an, which made Zhu Ping'an wonder for a while if this was the cold-faced brocade guard who followed him.

In the end, Guo Chai cleared his throat and deliberately looked outside the door, the guards in the courtyard were dozens of steps away from the door, Guo Chai walked two steps and said: "The father-in-law specially instructed the villain to remind the adult." In the past, Zhu Sheng offered advice to Taizu, 'building a high wall, accumulating grain, and slowly becoming king'. Today, it is still a wise saying, and my father-in-law advises adults to 'build a high wall, accumulate grain, and move with the trend', and there will definitely be something to do in the future! ”

Shen Mingxian saw that Guo chased after speaking, and immediately picked it up, "The villain's shop is in Dengzhou City, and the villain will be bothering in the house for a few days these days, please consider it with Mr. Yin, and the villain can deliver all the detailed account books." And explain the affairs in detail to the adults and Mr. Yin. ”

After the two finished speaking, they took a few steps back in unison and bowed down to wait for Zhu Ping'an's orders.

Zhu Ping'an was stunned for a long time, and then nodded, "The prince's kindness and kindness, keep peace in mind, and in the future, I will have to worry about the two of you." ”

Guo Chai and Shen Mingxian retired at this time.

The two went out and just got down the steps, but Shen Mingxian stumbled and almost fell. Guo chased his hand quickly, and grabbed him, but saw that Shen Mingxian couldn't help himself, his lips trembled, but he couldn't say a word.

Seeing this, Guo Chai hurriedly helped him out of the courtyard, and when he got outside, he patted Shen Mingxian's back, and Shen Mingxian breathed a sigh of relief. But in an instant, he almost burst into tears.

"Like, too much!" Shen Mingxian couldn't stop muttering to himself, "God is pitiful, my father-in-law didn't deceive me and others, the head of the family still has descendants." At such an age, he is already a second-grade high-ranking official, and my Shen family is hopeful! ”

Guo Chai's smile appeared on his face, and in an instant, it was like a spring breeze blowing away the frost covering the surface. "My father has a spirit in the sky, and he can also smile at Jiuquan!"

……

And the three people in the study, none of them made a sound, just looked at each other, looking at the small wooden box on the table, as if it weighed a thousand pounds at the moment.

Zhu Ping'an looked at Yin Shigang and Cao Wuxian, and said with a wry smile helplessly: "Don't ask me, I'm as confused as you!" ”

Yin Shigang licked his somewhat dry lips, swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, and tapped his forehead with the folding fan in his hand. "Well, adults don't have to worry too much, depending on the meaning of the prince, it should be sincere to help, otherwise he will never trust each other with this, and all the things in the capital are enough to prove that he has no ill will towards adults!"

Cao Wuxian groaned, hugged his head and sighed, "Damn Guo Chai, don't say anything, let the little master grow a pimple in my heart, and I feel uncomfortable!" ”

The three of them laughed at each other when they heard this, after all, this secret will be revealed sooner or later, so it's better to solve the problem in front of them first.

The four guards of Dengzhou died so many officers at once, and there must always be a name to report to the imperial court. Of course, the specific statement is naturally Zhu Ping'an's own statement. It's easy to say, Jin Yiwei has some ironclad evidence of the corruption of the four guards, and he is the personality of Emperor Chongzhen, who can't rub sand in his eyes, and these people can't escape death. It can be added that the conspiracy of these people was exposed, and in order to oppose Zhu Ping'an's rectification of Dengzhou's military affairs, they did not hesitate to encourage the soldiers to launch a mutiny. If you want to hear it, there is nothing to say, anyway, there are Zhou Yanru and Wang Chengen sitting in the center and the inner court, and Zhu Ping'an's move will definitely not be affected in any way.

The chapter was handed over to Yin Shigang to write. Write it down as the candidates for the new commanders of Da Songwei, Jinghaiwei and Chengshanwei Sanwei. Zhu Ping'an's idea was that Yue Jinfeng, Qiu Ze and Li Rujing each led a guard. Yue Jinfeng and Qiu Ze are naturally speechless, the two have followed Zhu Ping'an for some years, and they are robes that crawled out of the pile of dead people in the giant deer, this is even more rewarded by the imperial court, they are all officials of the third grade, and the official position of a commander is merely a commander, and the imperial court will naturally not be stingy. In addition, there are two positions: the commander of the Yamen of the Metropolitan Division and the commander of the secretary.

Yue Jinfeng and others still lacked qualifications, so Yang Dekai and Tong Wanjun made up for it. Yang Dekai already has an official position, plus Lu Xiangsheng's face, a commander from the second rank of the same knowledge can not run, Tong Wanjun has been in the position of a general for more than ten years, this time just by taking advantage of the chaos to be promoted to the commander of the officer, of course, in view of the current shortage of naval talents, he also has to concurrently serve as the general of the Denglai Naval Division.

As a civil official, Yin Shigang's experience in the Yamen is definitely his.

The only one who was a little hesitant was Li Rujing. This person has been confirmed to be from a rogue background, and his heart and loyalty have made others a little suspicious. But Zhu Ping'an did give him a package ticket, and seeing Zhu Ping'an's confident appearance, Yin Shigang and Cao Wuxian couldn't say anything, so they could only secretly strengthen the monitoring of this person.

The only thing that is difficult to do is the blind Shen Ke, after the battle of Julu, the court rewarded meritorious deeds, Shen Ke got a five-grade official position of a thousand households, Zhu Ping'an originally intended to promote him to the commander of the first guard, but Shen Ke was unwilling to leave, preferring to stay in Zhu Ping'an's left and right as a personal guard. Zhu Ping'an had no choice but to use him and Wang Jinfa as the left and right thousands of households in the family team around him.

As for Hong Fatzi, Guo Chai, He Changshui, Mafu Wang and others, they have other appointments, and for the time being, they can only put up the main framework of the Dusi Yamen first, and the others will be slowly improved.

But that's it, someone still found Zhu Ping'an for the first time, and this person was Li Rujing.

"Your Excellency really wants to appoint me as the commander of Jing Haiwei?" As soon as Li Rujing entered the door, he asked directly without saying a word.

Zhu Ping'an put down the inventory presented by Guo Chai who was reading in detail in his hand, and nodded, "In the battle of Julu, you made military achievements, the imperial court rewarded you, and gave you the position of five products and thousands of households. ”

Li Rujing's face flushed, "But, but I ......!" ”

"You're a rogue, aren't you? Or Zhang Xianzhong's adopted son? Zhu Ping'an simply spoke it out for him.

Li Rujing's body trembled and nodded heavily.

"So what does it matter? Except for me, a few of your good brothers who were born and died know. What's more, during the Battle of Julu, I didn't use Li Rujing's name to ask for credit for you, but I used another name? ”

"Another name?"

"That's right, this name is - Li Dingguo!"

"Li Dingguo!" Li Rujing read this name, and was a little distracted for a while. "Aren't you afraid that I will pull up the ranks and join the rebels? Raise the banner to rebel? ”

Zhu Ping'an smiled confidently, "No!" Tapping Li Rujing with his finger, "Because I think you already know the pride of fighting for the country, this is a sense of honor and pride that others can't comprehend, just like I told you at the beginning, it is in your heart, nothing can replace it!" ”

Zhu Ping'an patted his chest, "You might as well ask yourself, are you still staying in those rogues now?" Every day, they burn thousands of miles and live happily, but they are all based on the suffering of the people. I also know that you are also forced to rebel, the officials force the people to rebel, and there is really no way out to gather people to rebel. But since he wants to rebel, he will go to the righteous and righteous teacher to save the people from fire and water. Could it be that like Zhang Xianzhong, he plundered the city, slaughtered the city at every turn, shed rivers of blood, and fed on human flesh was the work of the righteous army? Tell me for yourself, does this father-in-law of yours still deserve the title of leader of the rebel army? ”

Zhu Ping'an patted Li Rujing's shoulder, "When you encounter a difficult choice, you might as well ask your heart, which road is the most important thing in your heart, even if you go wrong, you have no regrets, and your husband walks the world and the world, isn't it just to seek peace of mind?" ”

Li Rujing was suddenly stunned by Zhu Ping'an's series of questions that had already been answered, and for a long time, his throat squirmed twice, and his painful expression gradually relaxed, and he knelt down in front of Zhu Ping'an.

"From today on, Li Rujing is dead, there is only one person in the world, Li Dingguo, Dingguo is willing to fight the world with a seven-foot body, although he has no regrets in death!" R1152
