Holding the holy decree in his hand, Sun Chengzong's body trembled very much, and he deeply understood what this holy decree represented. The Emperor of the Apocalypse not only approved the recital, but also expressed his support and trust in Sun Chengzong.

Thinking of the young face of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Sun Chengzong's heart was full of mixed feelings, and he knew what kind of path he had in front of him.

The people in the room were all looking at Sun Chengzong, obviously he didn't say anything if he didn't speak. Xiong Tingbi and He Shixian's faces were full of joy, but Chen Hong on the side was expressionless, and no one knew what the big eunuch was thinking.

Seeing what Sun Chengzong was going to say, Chen Hong shook his head gently, glanced back at the young eunuch beside him, and said in a very stern tone: "If someone asks what you are doing in Liaodong?" What do you say? ”

"Back to the ancestors, the slave and maid said that the emperor sent the slave and maid to the ancestor to explain some things!" The young eunuch smiled flatteringly, and said in an unusually respectful voice.

Taking a deep look at the young eunuch, Chen Hong nodded noncommittally, and said with a calm face: "Now that it is snowing heavily, the way back is not easy, so you can stay in Liaodong!" Follow our family first, and wait until the snow melts next spring before going back. Our family will explain to Chen Lin, and I won't be able to treat you badly after I go back. But if you go outside and chew your tongue, don't blame us! ”

The young eunuch's body trembled suddenly, and his face showed a look of fear, and Ai Ai said: "Ancestor rest assured, don't dare to borrow two brave slaves and maids!" ”

Waving his hand, Chen Hong said expressionlessly: "It's good to know, you go down!" ”

"Slave and maid retire!" The young eunuch bowed respectfully, bowed and withdrew.

When the young eunuch left, Chen Hong walked to a chair and sat down, his face was suddenly full of smiles, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen. Now if you have anything to say, don't hesitate to say it! I don't care if we listen to it here! ”

"Grandpa Chen is joking, with Grandpa Chen here, things will definitely go more smoothly!" Xiong Tingbi looked at Chen Hong with a smile and said in a gentle tone.

Several people sat down, and Sun Chengzong had regained his previous indifference, but his face was still a little worried. Said: "Ladies and gentlemen, the emperor's decree has arrived, and this is the emperor's trust in us. The restructuring of Liaodong is related to the imperial court, and we must not slack off. Speaking of this, Sun Chengzong's face became extremely serious, and he said resolutely: "If the restructuring of Liaodong fails, I'm afraid we will all have to go home to farm, and we have a negative grace." If it happens, it will be the merit of thousands of generations. We're all going to go down in history. ”

The expressions of several people became serious, He Shixian's body trembled a little, but Chen Hong on the side was still expressionless.

"Gonggong Chen, the eunuch of Sanbao can be said to be the most famous eunuch, if this thing is done, the old man believes that Gonggong Chen's name will also be recorded in the annals of history. Maybe he can be named after the eunuch of the Three Treasures, so the old man hopes that his father-in-law will put more effort into it! Turning his gaze on Chen Hong's body, Sun Chengzong said with a sincere face.

Listened to Sun Chengzong's words. Chen Hong was suddenly a little moved, but soon returned to normal. He glanced at a few people. He said in a deep voice: "Our family doesn't dare to think about what Lord Sun said, after all, our family is His Majesty's slave." What His Majesty asks our family to do, our family will definitely not have a second word. Don't worry, our family will do our best! ”

"Although we have blocked the news, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and we must find a way. There are also some people in the capital. I'm afraid that when the time comes, I will take the opportunity to make trouble, if something happens here in Liaodong, it will be very bad! Xiong Tingbi's face was gloomy, he had been miserable by those officials in the court for so many years, and he still had palpitations until now.

nodded approvingly. Sun Chengzong also knew how much resistance there was to this matter, and he was facing these generals in Liaodong. Changing the system of guards to a conscription system directly confronts these generals, cutting off their financial routes, and these people are definitely looking for trouble. If there are people in the capital to help the trouble, things will definitely become very tricky.

"Don't worry about the adults in the capital, the emperor has prepared Jingcha this year, and those people don't have the time to take care of Liaodong's affairs. They should be anxious now, Master Sun doesn't have to think about them, just think about how to face the affairs of Liaodong! Chen Hong on the side said lightly, with a smile on his face.

Looking at Chen Hong in a daze, Sun Chengzong said in surprise: "Father-in-law Chen, although the matter of Jingcha was mentioned in the newspaper, it was not too detailed. If your father-in-law has any news, you might as well hear it, maybe it will help you. ”

Nodding slowly, Chen Hong said with a serious face: "It has spread in the capital, and all the officials are busy with this matter. There is more news from the palace, and the emperor is not only investigating the officials in the capital this time, but also the top priority of the six departments, and no one will put their minds on our side. ”

Sun Chengzong breathed a deep sigh of relief, and he also knew in his heart that this was probably the intention of the Emperor of the Apocalypse. First, you can check the officials in the court, and secondly, you can reduce a little trouble for your side.

"In that case, it's much easier to do, but should this matter be done until the beginning of spring or now?" Looking at Sun Chengzong inquiringly, Xiong Tingbi asked hesitantly.

Nodding solemnly, Sun Chengzong pondered for a long time, shook his head gently, and said in a deep voice: "Things should be done sooner rather than later, while there are no tartars to make trouble in winter, we can let go and do it." Because of the season, we will have a lot less resistance to get things done. ”

"Since that's the case, let's do what the marshal says, and let's start discussing how to do it!" Xiong Tingbi also nodded in agreement, and said in a resolute tone.

In the winter of the first year of the Apocalypse, Liaodong launched a reform that the Ming Dynasty had seen for a hundred years, changing the guard system to a conscription system. In later history, this restructuring is regarded as the beginning of the great reform of the Apocalypse.

When Liaodong was preparing for restructuring, the counterinsurgency in Yunnan was also underway, and unlike when he first came to Yunnan, Sun Chuanting was in a very bad mood at this time.

Looking at the map in front of him, Sun Chuanting glanced back at Zhu Xieyuan, the political envoy of Yunnan, and said in a low voice: "Lord Zhu, please tell me the truth of the matter!" ”

Nodding with a serious face, Zhu Xieyuan's face flashed with worry, and he said in a deep voice: "Shuixi Xuanfu made the An clan rebel, and the current Shuixi Xuanfu envoy is named An Wei, who succeeded to the throne in the forty-third year of Wanli. He was only eight years old when he succeeded to the throne, and his mother, Luxury Shehui, was in charge of the washing business, but the actual power was in the hands of Yasu's uncle, An Bangyan. In addition, the mother of the Shuixi Xuanfu Envoy is the younger sister of the Yongning Xuanfu Envoy Xuan Chongming of this rebellion, so the official is worried that they will collude with each other, and if that is the case, things will become very tricky. ”

"There is no need to worry about this, and if they are colluding with each other, then why not meet up and rebel together? This shows that there is also discord between them, and there are differences and conflicts of interests. If one day they collude with each other, there is only one reason, that is, we have been forced to do nothing! Yuan Keli on the side had a light face, smiled indifferently, and said softly.

Nodding in agreement, Sun Chuanting also thought so, and looked at Zhu Xieyuan again, Sun Chuanting continued: "According to what your Excellency just said, this rebellion was led by An Bangyan. So where are they hitting now? Has things gotten out of control? ”

"An Bangyan was a rebellion that began in November, and forty-eight Miao tribes echoed it, and on the day of the rebellion, An Bangyan captured Bijie. Then the division of troops captured Anshun, and Song Wanhua, the Tusi of Hongbian, also followed and captured Longli at the same time. Now An Bangyan is besieging Guiyang with more than 100,000 troops, and the situation is very critical! Zhu Xieyuan unfolded a map, and after hanging up the map, he said with a serious face.

The people in the big tent all had gloomy faces, and everyone knew that Guiyang could not be lost, and if Guiyang was lost, Guizhou would be finished.

After a slight sigh, Sun Chuanting said hesitantly: "Master Zhu, can Guiyang hold out for a month?" After we have eliminated the rebellion here in Yongning, are we waving our army to rescue Guiyang? ”

Everyone's eyes were focused on Zhu Xieyuan, if it was like what Sun Chuanting said, things would be simple.

Zhu Xieyuan lowered his head and pondered, the affairs of Guiyang should be under the jurisdiction of Guizhou Province, and the Ming Dynasty and the three capitals and thirteen provinces were all divided. As a political envoy to Sichuan, he really can't interfere in Guizhou. However, seeing the rebels in Guizhou growing, Zhu Xieyuan's heart was also very uneasy.

After a while, Zhu Xieyuan shook his head slowly, and said in a low tone: "Lord Sun, Guiyang and Chengdu are different, although they only have 3,000 soldiers, but Chengdu can hold on for half a year, but Guiyang cannot." ”

Why not, Zhu Xieyuan didn't say, but everyone knew it in their hearts. Chengdu has the king of Shu, and all the grain and grass are supplied by Shu, not to mention that it has been half a year, and there may not be problems in three or five years. There is not so much grain and grass in Guiyang City, and if it is besieged for a month, the city will probably have to eat grass roots and gnaw tree bark.

Slammed his fist on the table, Sun Chuanting sighed deeply, he was very depressed now. The dignified Ming Dynasty, being forced to such a situation by these Biansai Tusi, is really unbearable.

seemed to see Sun Chuanting's thoughts, Yuan Keli on the side smiled, and said in a deep voice: "Lord Sun doesn't have to be like this, if things are easy to do, why did you and I come here?" The emperor values you so much, you have to understand the emperor's hard work. ”

Hearing Yuan Keli's words, Sun Chuanting was slightly stunned, but immediately reflected that the Emperor of the Apocalypse sent him, I am afraid that it was to pacify the southwest border. Thinking about it like this, Sun Chuanting suddenly brightened.
