Zhang Zhang shook his head, gently took Ruo Chen's hand, and said lightly, "I know what you think in your heart." The father-in-law did something wrong and should be punished, but he didn't have to overreact. ”

Ruochen cried out with a "wow", it is conceivable that she must have been under great pressure these days, maybe it was her mother Song Xiuniang, or the official in charge of civil affairs, Ge Ximeng and others, although everyone didn't say it clearly, but they all looked at Ruochen with wide eyes, seeing how she, the "housemother", handled the affairs of her mother's family.

Ruochen was originally sitting next to Zhang Li, but at this moment he buried his head in Zhang Li's arms and cried bitterly.

Zhang Zhang gently stroked Ruochen's hair, and said softly: "The country has national laws, and the family has family rules. Everything is done according to the law, I remember the first time I lowered the purchase price, the punishment should be a fine, right? ”

Ruochen sobbed and said, "Yes! But people outside don't say it, they must be thinking in their hearts that how can they punish themselves, isn't it going through the motions? ”

Zhang Zhang bowed slightly, indeed, in these years, people like Zhang Li's "monarch level" pay attention to a "family world", and everyone acquiesces to this. Zhang Li punished his father-in-law's money, isn't that for show?

Zhang Zhang pondered for a moment and said to Ruo Chen: "I know that you care about my reputation and don't want others to gossip about me." However, as you know, I have always promoted the rule of law, not the rule of man. The Son of Heaven broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people - this has been said for thousands of years, but it is unique to do it. ”

Zhang Li smiled bitterly and said self-deprecatingly: "I'm afraid, I can't do it myself!" ”

Ruochen stopped crying and raised his head to look at Zhang Li. Said: "Didn't you say it last time, step by step. Take your time? I wondered if my father had broken the rules, and I would punish him severely. So that others can see ......."

Zhang Zhang shook his head and said lightly: "What is justice?" Naturally, it is the same treatment, no matter who is the offender. If the father-in-law breaks the rules, then punish him according to the rules, that's all. ”

Ruochen frowned and said, "Is there a penalty for silver?" My father just paid the fine, and I'm afraid the others will gossip! ”

Zhang Zhang said softly, obviously what Ruochen said also made sense. Of course, the ultimate goal of the rule of tension is to "rule the country according to law", but when I say this in these years, the ghost believes it - hmm. I guess I don't even believe in ghosts......

For example, democracy and freedom can only be gradually instilled in the common people when the wisdom of the people has been developed, and in the current situation, the common people cannot even eat enough, and advocating this can only be regarded as madness.

Zhang Liwei groaned slightly, then thought about it and said: "Hmm, Chen Zhengcao, the commander of the Tuanshan Water Division, has been complaining to me, saying that there are too few gunboats in our Naval Division. He has never dared to start a war with Zheng Zhilong's fleet. In this way, the confiscated silver in the future will be earmarked for the use of the sailors to purchase gunboats. Your father's fines. Just buy a small gunboat with 400 materials, and the name is "British Gong"! ”

"Huh?! Fines to buy gunboats? Still in your father's name? Ruochen was startled and blurted out.

Zhang Zhang nodded. Said solemnly: "In the future, the fines and silver will be handled according to this rule, and the regimental landscape division will be specially developed." Father-in-law's incident is known all over the city, right? The 400-gauge gunboat still belonged to small boats. It's only tens of thousands of taels of silver, so that he can spend his own money to buy a lesson. In the future, you must no longer violate the regulations of Tuanshan Fort. ”

Ruochen thought about it for a while, and quickly turned his worries into joy, and said in a low voice: "This method is good!" One father was also punished, and the other bought gunboat big guys can also be seen, it's really the best of both worlds! ”

Zhang Li rubbed his temples and said, "I also said that I would go home and rest, but how could I rest?" ”

Ruochen glanced at the tension on his face full of wind and frost, and gently touched tension's hand with some distress, and said, "I'll cook it myself today, and get you a few side dishes, right?" ”

Zhang Zhang smiled and said, "Okay, I haven't eaten your food for a long time." ”

The two talked for a long time, and finally Zhang Zhang came out of the house and went to the Jinzhou Chamber, while Ruochen was preparing dinner at home.

……

In the Jinzhou Council Hall, Kang Xing'an, who had not appeared for a long time, was standing solemnly in front of the hall with a respectful face, waiting for the arrival of tension.

This time Zhang Zhang returned to Jinzhou, it can be said that one of the most direct reasons is to come to see Anzi, and to see the person brought by Anzi-

On the right side of Kang Xing'an, there is also a person standing down, this person looks like he is in his thirties, with a plump torso, straight eyebrows, thin and long curved eyes, a slightly red complexion, a handful of beards under his chin fluttering slightly, and the whole person looks quite energetic.

"Mr. Yan, Lord Zhang just returned to Jinzhou today, and he named and wanted to summon you, so it can be seen that there is no lie below, right?" Kang Xingan looked at Mr. Yan with a smile on his face.

From the fifth year of Chongzhen to the current ninth year of Chongzhen, for four years, Anzi has been sent outside by Zhang Li to attract talents. At the beginning, Song Yingxing took half a year, because there was an official appointment from the imperial court, so it was not too troublesome. Then Anzi infiltrated the peasant army Zhang Xianzhong's department and successfully "rebelled" against the young Li Dingguo, which took a year.

The task assigned to him by Zhang Li at the beginning was to find three people - three people who Zhang Li thought were the most admirable, the least should be buried, and the most worthy of being reused in the late Ming Dynasty.

Song Yingxing was an outstanding scientist in the late Ming Dynasty, and he was probably a person like Yuan Longping, and his utility is needless to say;

Li Dingguo was not too brilliant in the Chongzhen Dynasty, but in the Southern Ming Dynasty after the death of the Ming Dynasty, with his own strength, it can almost be said that he beat the Manchu Tartars everywhere in the southwest corner.

The regent Dolgon, who was in charge of Beijing at that time in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, was repeatedly beaten by Li Dingguo and sent a killer Wu Sangui, but unfortunately Wu Gonggong, ah, no, the king of Pingxi was also repeatedly defeated. Dolgon had almost made a decision to abandon the seven southwestern provinces at that time, but unfortunately in the end, due to the betrayal of traitors, Li Dingguo had to leave Burma and finally died of illness.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Li Dingguo was good at attacking, but another person was good at defending.

Historical records record that there were many people who guarded at the end of the Ming Dynasty, such as Yuan Chonghuan and Shi Kefa. Both of them are in high positions and both hold great powers, so perhaps they may still lack the ability to turn the tide of the situation. The deceased is gone, at least neither of them has defected to the enemy, and they are a hundred times stronger than Wu Sangui, Hong Chengchou, and Kong Youde.

However, there is one person whose ability is far superior to that of Yuan Dudu and Shi Gebu!

He was not a high-ranking official, and he didn't even have a regular army under his command, because he refused to "shave his hair and change clothes", and led the righteous people to resist the Manchus and hold the city......

Kang Xingan glanced at Mr. Yan, who was a person, and couldn't help muttering again in his heart: Why does Lord Zhang value him so much?

The thirteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty have countless heroes and heroes, why does Lord Zhang only value a half-old child Li Dingguo, a broken Mr. Yan? (To be continued.) )
