The turmoil in Beijing, as well as the business war on the East Road, are all concerned by the government and the opposition, and the officials and generals of Xuanda Zhuzhen are naturally no exception. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the jurisdiction, the defense of Shanxi Town includes the places of Taiyuan Prefecture, but the general army has always been stationed in Jiening Wuguan, and only the governor generally stays in Taiyuan City.

The Datong Town Defense Area includes Datong Mansion, borders Xiawu Mountain in the south, and borders Shanxi Town with Yanmen Pass.

Xuanfu Town, east to Longmen, close to the place of the plug outside the full set, west of Datong Town Tianchengwei is not far away, Tianchengwei to the west, is Yang Hewei, and Yanghe City, and has always been the place where the governor of Xuanda is stationed.

In addition to Ji Shiwei, the governor of Xuanda, Zhu Zhifeng, the governor of Xuanfu, Cai Maode, the governor of Shanxi, and Wei Jingyuan, the governor of Datong, either just took office, or not long after taking office, or have not yet arrived, they have their own reactions to the affairs of the East Road and Jingshi.

I don't know if Wang Dou's luck is good or bad, among the local governors in the late Ming Dynasty, they are relatively honest and open-minded, and the three governors who are the most loyal to the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Zhifeng, Cai Maode, and Wei Jingyu, all concentrated in the three towns of Xuanda.

In history, after Li Zicheng advanced, these three governors all committed suicide and martyrdom, but they were the general soldiers of the three towns of Xuanda, except for Zhou Yuji, and the eunuchs who guarded the town, surrendered one by one, and hundreds of thousands of troops did not let go of a single shot, and laid down their arms without shame.

These three governors, among which Zhu Zhifeng, the governor of Xuanfu, has a strong temperament and iron bones, and as soon as he came to power in history, he impeached and imprisoned Tang Yu, the chief soldier who bent the law for bribes, of course, he also has a greater desire for power and a stronger desire for control.

Zhu Zhifeng was born in the fifth year of the Apocalypse, and had been a magistrate in Shandong, and after taking office as the governor of Xuanzhen, he was ambitious, and intended to return the town to a bright and blue sky.

He presided over the compilation of the town's enlistment book day and night. He was also very concerned about Yang Guozhu's new army fields and had a stern warning. Any officer or general who dares to strike at the new army will be mercilessly impeached and eliminated.

Under his strict supervision and audit, corruption in Xuanzhen was controlled, of course. He also inevitably offended a large number of people, and many officials and generals hated him to the core. Behind his back, he secretly scolded Zhu Zhifeng for being Zhu Heitian and Zhu peeling his skin.

Wang Douwei is famous, and the newly appointed Governor Zhu naturally knows that the relevant intelligence collection has collected more than a sack, and he even summoned the East Road soldiers to prepare Ma Guoxi for a detailed discussion, and wooed Wang Dou from Ma Guoxi. The proposal of the Ming Dynasty to do his best is very much appreciated.

He also had the confidence to appease Wang Dou well, so that the governor of Xuanzhen and the general soldier would become a local civil and military match. A model for the imperial court.

After the rumors of Jingshi reached Xuanzhen, he was quite angry, and despite the persuasion of his staff and the letters of his former officials, he resolutely wrote to the court and tried his best to defend Wang Dou.

When the news of Wang Dou's joint border army came to the news, he was also angry, and wrote to the court, reprimanding Wang Dou, saying that he had a grievance, and he should not be so coerced by the court, trapping the saint in injustice, and solemnly stating that he was not right about things and people, and he was upright.

When everyone tried to cut off foreign goods from entering the East Road, Governor Zhu was also angry, and severely condemned the profiteers for harming the locality.

For a while, everyone looked sideways, in the early days of the dynasty, it was good for businessmen to be untouchables, but now, how powerful are businessmen? Even the first assistant of the first cabinet has successively people from merchant families, and their words can be described as shocking.

In addition, because many caravans entering the East Road have encountered various criminals, and the people below are in disobedience, Governor Zhu was angry, and personally led a battalion to escort some salt and tea into the East Road, even if the major merchants were monstrous, they did not dare to openly kill the governor of a town and intercept his team.

When the news of Wang Dou's sealing came, Governor Zhu immediately sent a messenger to the East Road General's Mansion to congratulate him, saying that the Marquis of Yongning would return soon, and Benfu was full of expectations for working with the Marquis of Yongning, and he had just congratulated Wang Dou after scolding him.

For a time, he was not afraid of this heaven and earth, and he was not even afraid of death, and he only called the upright two hundred and five, and all parties were helpless.

Everywhere Governor Zhu went, it can be said that ghosts and gods were scattered, and no one dared to approach, but there were fewer and fewer people close to him, and he was quite alone.

Of course, after this incident, the military and people of the East Road have a very good impression of Governor Zhu, and Emperor Chongzhen admires it very much.

Shanxi Governor Cai Maode, once served as Liaodong Ningqian military preparation right to participate in politics, during the battle of Jinzhou, it is also regarded as killing the enemy side by side with Wang Dou, forming a deep comradeship, but also in Ningyuan, and Wang Dou discussed Buddhist theories, he took Wang Shouren as an idol, thrifty and self-disciplined, and always looked like a humble gentleman.

He arrived early, was peaceful, and added the credit of the Battle of Jinzhou, at this time he was promoted one step higher, became the governor of Shanxi Town, and he was still on the way to Taiyuan, and he only said one sentence to the battle between the merchants and the officials behind him and the East Road: "General Wang has a strong temperament, but he has great merit in the country, and he should not be treated like this." ”

He believes that the two sides should value peace, and if there is a stalemate, it will not be beneficial to each other, especially everyone should block the East Road, which should not be, and call for harmony to prevail.

Datong Governor Wei Jingyi, like Zhu Zhifeng, is quite principled in his bones, the same fair and honest, and does not enforce the law.

He even impeached the first assistant Zhou Yanru, impeached Zeng Chuqing, the servant of the ministry, and opposed the proposal of the cardinal Yang Sichang to extort salaries.

However, unlike Zhu Zhifeng, who has a dark face all day long, he is quite gentle, with a constant smile on his face on weekdays, and secretly, he is known as a smiling tiger.

At this time, Wei Jingyu also took office not long ago, he had no good impression of the local businessman Jia Haoqiang, and he also admired Wang Dou's southern and northern wars and tried his best for the country, of course, Wang Dou contacted the border army and made noise about the Beijing division, and Zhu Zhifeng, he was unhappy in his heart.

He spoke quite attentively, only faintly pointed out this point on the fold, but his attitude was very clear, saying that everyone and all officials jointly blocked the east road, which was inappropriate, and he said: "The national disaster is here, we should be in the same boat, what is so?" ”

Of course. The three of them are quite concerned about the outcome of the business battle between the East Road and the various families.

Even this uproar slowly spread to Zhongzhou and Jiangnan, all walks of life. Same concern.

Faintly, the king of Jin in Taiyuan, the acting king of Datong, and the king of the valley in Xuanzhen. Quite dissatisfied with Wang Dou.

Accompanied by many local civil and military generals, all over the country. In particular, the deputy chief soldier of Xuanfu Town, the "secretary officer", all commanded Zhang Guowei, and he was even more schadenfreude, and when he met people, he talked about the righteous and helpful, and the unrighteous was unhelpful, and Wang Dou was also too arrogant and domineering. There should be such a newspaper.

However, although he was happy, he did not participate in these activities, and perhaps Wang Dou slashed and killed on the East Road back then, leaving a shadow on him. Once he was bitten by a snake, he was afraid of the well rope for ten years, and he didn't dare to act openly anymore.

There is also Du Xun, the eunuch guarding Xuanfu Town, who is also sneering at Wang Dou, if Wang Dou is really as everyone said, his various financial routes are not broken? He has only arrived in Xuanfu Town not long ago, and he is receiving all kinds of red envelopes and dry stocks, and he is very happy to receive them, and he will be gone in the future?

Eunuchs can't be officials, can't marry wives, and are more excited about wealth, and it is difficult to understand their love for gold and silver, plus the big eunuchs in the palace Wang Yumin, Qi Benzheng, Zheng Zhihui and others, the local eunuch Liu Yuanbin was degraded or died because of Wang Dou, these people are good friends with Du Xun, and it is strange that they can have a good impression of Wang Dou.

In mid-November, Yanghe, the residence of the governor of Xuanda.

Ji Shiwei sat in the study and muttered, the current matter of Donglu made him worried, for him, Wang Dou, the importance of his son-in-law, had surpassed his sons, so if something happened to Wang Doudonglu, he did not want to see it.

It's just that......

Ji Shiwei sighed, but he sighed that as the governor, he wanted to help with the affairs of the East Road, but he was also more than willing to do it.

Not long ago, Ji Shiwei received the result of the court push and was appointed as the governor of the three towns of Xuanda, how high-spirited he was at that time.

However, soon, after Ji Shiwei arrived in Yanghe, he encountered the feeling of powerlessness when he was in charge of the army, the local powerful forces were too heavy, and all parties violated the yang and yin, and it was difficult to do anything, and the only way to do it was to be with the light.

And now, it is impossible to be with the light, all parties and their sons-in-law are in danger of tearing their faces, and all kinds of open guns and hidden arrows are coming one after another, and the power of the businessman is so great, which makes him even more shocked.

Once when everyone besieged the East Road, he was worried and confused, let a merchant who was good friends with him, led a caravan, escorted salt and tea, and wanted to enter the East Road, but he didn't expect that the caravan set off from Yanghe City not long ago, and before it approached Xuanfu Town, the caravan personnel were slaughtered by the "Outer Mongolians".

The businessman who was good friends with him was even put into a sack and trampled to death with a horse's hooves, and when he saw his corpse, he didn't dare to confirm that the pile of meat was the shopkeeper who talked and laughed with him on weekdays?

He was angry and wanted to investigate, but before he could act, impeachment attacks from all sides had already come one after another, which made him anxious.

After this time, the power of collusion between officials and businessmen, he deeply understood, over the past hundred years, how huge the power they operated, so he was the governor of Xuanda, if he fought against it, he had the feeling of being a mantis arm.

Sometimes he had an impulse in his heart to persuade his son-in-law not to go against those merchants, and then this thought was deeply suppressed by him.

He knows his son-in-law's temper, is he a man who is willing to give up?

If he led the main army back, it would be the time when blood flowed everywhere, and he couldn't help but shudder when he thought about it.

If this is the case, can he, the governor, still deserve it?

and the three governors, all of whom are not easy to match, are also one of the reasons for his headaches.

Perhaps, he is really not suitable for survival in officialdom, think about the eleventh year of Chongzhen, because of his daughter's elopement, he called his son-in-law Wang Dou to speak, and the son-in-law said: "...... As for the status of the military officer of the lower officials, in the current eventful autumn of the Ming Dynasty, a military general who can lead troops to fight may not be worse than the literati, and the governor may not be able to use the lower officials in the future. ”

"Who knows what the future holds? Perhaps one day, the Governor will think that it was a wise decision to let Junjiao follow me. ”

Yes, it is indeed a wise choice to let her daughter follow Wang Dou.

It's just that as Wang Dou's status becomes more expensive, and now he lives in Yongninghou, Ji Shiwei has a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart, that country woman Xie Xiuniang has a steady stream of rewards, but her own daughter has no reward title, which is not fair.

How noble is the status of his daughter, just because of a name, how can she be willing to bend the wife of the residents?

It's just that no matter how unwilling he is, he has secretly gotten the news that for Xie Xiuniang, his son-in-law even refused the princess, alas, it is really stubborn.

Of course, Ji Shiwei still appreciates this, what about the princess, if she wants to enter the Wang's house, she has to line up behind her daughter.

He suddenly made up his mind that even if the governor quit, he would collect more evidence of the crimes of those profiteers for his son-in-law, so that he could act justifiably in the future.

It's a big deal that he resigned and returned to the field afterwards, and concentrated on urging his daughter to have a son.

After making up his mind, Ji Shiwei suddenly felt relaxed, and at the same time felt self-pity in his heart, could he only rely on his son-in-law to eat?

Cheap people are bitter in their hearts.

Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly the housekeeper came to report, and the eldest young master asked to see him.

Ji Shiwei's spirits were lifted, and his eldest son Ji Boqing still satisfied him, and he will soon be transferred from the position of the magistrate of Guangchang County to Ulzhou as the governor, which can be described as a strong year.

Not long after, not long after turning thirty, the dignified Ji Boqing entered the study, and a whisper came from the room: "...... The fifth sister wants to go further, but her brother-in-law ......"

After a quiet while, Ji Shiwei's thunderous voice suddenly came, and there was a teacup and other rattles: "This beast is really angry with the old man...... The family is unfortunate, out of this evil obstacle! (To be continued.) )
