How many years have you not been home? I don't remember how much I still have an impression of that home, and I don't have much memory of it anyway. But after all, it is a home, and it is a place of heart.

Special train, this term is very special, especially a kind of power, the white crane does not want, but can not be without.

Zheng Wupin Daming's internal scribe Bai Minghe Lord...... Positive five products!

When I saw this telegram, everyone up and down the yamen of the Shaanxi Political Department seemed to be directly frozen by minus 100 degrees. What a big official, of course, for ordinary people, this is no longer a petty official, but for the chief secretary, it is a petty official.

But after the five products, add the word white crane, and the taste changes.

"him is the fifth grade!" The political envoy Zuo Bu threw away the telegram, pointed to the people below and said: "If you come to the capital, you must go to Xuzhou first, and then go west." Bai Minghe's car must be all trains to give way, so all the way non-stop, at most two days and two nights to be able to get to Xi'an Fu Station, tell the Xi'an prefect, let him think about what to do. ”

What to do, what else to do, just welcome.

"Or you and I will personally go to greet it, not to say welcome the white crane, only to welcome the two princesses and a queen, after all, the railway from Xi'an Mansion to Hanzhong, without the white crane nodding, we Shaanxi can't save it. Not to mention the consumption of so many manpower, material resources, and financial resources, even you can't make up enough steel. The right-hand political envoy said a word beside him.

Before the political envoy of Zuo Bu could speak, a fellow acquaintance said: "Two adults, the Dusi Yamen will definitely go to greet you." Bai Minghe and the military attaches are very good, and the Shaanxi Dusi has been in charge of the railway for many years, and the silver is visible. Moreover, the Dusi Yamen advocated that the railway should be built to the north first. ”

"Okay, go and greet you." The political envoy of Zuo Bu had no choice but to refuse.

Seeing this situation, most of the people in the yamen were ready to greet them. But this scale can't be too large, it's almost enough to arrange the chief officer, and the rest of the officials will be counted.

The white crane played the banner of going home to save relatives, and only stayed at home for four days. These four days are still counted as consecutive days, that is, three nights. You must know that there is a cement road more than 400 miles long to the west of Xi'an Prefecture, and this road makes a special bend in the middle of the road. It is only less than five miles away from the mansion of the Bai family in Guanzhong.

Then a small road was built in those five miles, and it went directly to the door of the Bai family's mansion in Guanzhong.

With the train, the life of the Ming people has changed, from Shaanxi to the capital, it only takes two days and two nights, which was unimaginable before, which represents a faster pace.

Two days later, the special train of Shiramei Crane arrived.

Shira-nayakuzu got out of the car first and let the people who greeted him take a look. Everyone was taken aback, Bai Minghe was dressed too strangely, and his hair was short, only more than an inch long, and he was wearing a pair of tight linen trousers, and then a short cotton coat was tied in the pants, and he was wearing a pair of black leather shoes on his feet.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the white crane of the lower official is polite here." Got off the train. The white-named crane bowed.

"Don't talk nonsense, this set of vanity is better saved by you. You'll be home in a moment. I don't know if the old lady of your Bai family will beat you, but your mother will definitely cry. The governor of Shaanxi smiled and scolded and greeted him.

Bai Minghe also smiled: "Overseas, it's easier to live if you wear lighter, you must know that if your hair is messed up on the ship, it will be fatal, and the soldiers over there in Nanyang have cut their hair short, who can stand sweating every day." This dress. It's a lot easier, and I'm not used to wearing a long shirt. ”

"It doesn't matter about the clothes, anyway, no one can say anything about you if you don't punish you."

After exchanging salutes with several officials, Bai Minghe motioned for his family to return to Baifu first. Go to the yamen to chat by yourself.

But the officials were unwilling, they had to salute the two princesses and a queen, which was considered to be welcome, although there was no need to kneel, but they thought that the number of greetings could not be saved.

didn't enter the yamen of the political secretary, and Bai Minghe was not polite, and sat directly on the main seat, and Wang Cheng stood next to him.

"In a word, in order to go west or south, I have read the relevant paperwork on the train, and in my opinion, to the south. The reason is very simple, the Shu Road is beaten, this must be done, once the Shu Road is beaten, then the southwest will not be a poor place, and it will be easier to manage. ”

Bai Minghe's straightforward opening made the officials present have nothing to do.

After all, even if they hadn't dealt with the white crane, they had heard of the white crane doing things. Simple and straightforward.

If you can't do it, if you can't do it, you can't do it. I won't go around in so many circles, and even if it doesn't work, I'll give you a reason.

Shirana Crane took out a simple sketch and put it on the table.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is my advice to the Ministry of Works. Build the main road first, take the east-west, north-south as the main line, first protect the territory of our Ming Dynasty, and then expand. Beijing to Lanzhou, Xi'an to Lanzhou, Lanzhou to Hami, Hami to Turpan. To the north, it is the capital to Shenyang, Shenyang ......"

Shimana Crane told the lines on the map one by one.

Strictly speaking, the Ming Dynasty completed these railways in five stages and over a period of fifteen years.

The first step is the main line, the second step is the strategic trunk line, the third step is the capital trunk line, which is to connect all the provincial capitals of Daming, and then the fourth step is the branch line of the important commercial state capitals, and then the branch line of all the state capitals of Daming, with a plan of 15 years, the construction of the railway in Daming will be preliminarily completed.

"Anyway, it is estimated that this is also recognized by Yu Taishi, and we have nothing to say in Shaanxi."

The Shaanxi capital wants to fight for the railway from here to the west, so that it is of great strategic significance to Xijing, which is designated as one of the five capitals, otherwise what will Xijing do.

"Ladies and gentlemen, in fact, I am not here for official business, and I am not here to return to Nanjing. Now that I've handed in an errand, I can say that I'm not responsible for it, and I'm idle for the time being. There are still some small things to deal with, and after they are dealt with, we will talk about it. ”

The white crane is still young, so does this have the heart to retreat?

Several officials looked at each other, and they all didn't believe Bai Minghe's words, and of course not all of them didn't believe it.

"Okay,You're afraid of trouble.,Anyway, it's very convenient to have a Tianyin machine now.,It's not like before I don't know what to do.,A piece of music is handed over.,There will definitely be no reply for a few months.,Now the music can be handed over once a day.,Ask about major things.,It's much better than before.。

Only those who are willing to do things will have such thoughts.

For some chronic officials, they suddenly find that their lives are too fast-paced. This makes many people a little unbearable.

"Bai Minghe, I heard that Tianyin Machine has an idea to open it to the people, allowing the people to use it to pass on family letters."

"I really don't know, no one told me about this, but it's a good thing to think about it. In fact, this time I have been at sea for two years, and now I want to go home quickly. ”

There is no longer any stay, this white-named crane wants to go home and enter filial piety, and no one can stop him.

After Bai Minghe left, Zuo Bu's political envoy said: "Bai Minghe is afraid that he doesn't want to take care of these miscellaneous matters, otherwise he will leave Beijing in a hurry in this cabinet re-election." ”

"The white crane itself is not suitable for officialdom, he is too straight." The governor of Shaanxi also said.

Only according to the envoy said: "The white crane is afraid of high merit, and he carries the identity of a Byzantine prince, don't underestimate this identity, at least it is also an ally recognized by our Ming Dynasty, and at worst, he is the hegemon of the European side." Some people say that the white crane is a loyal minister, but I didn't believe it before, but now I do. ”

"Why?" Several people asked.

"He is loyal to the Han family, and he has a pure heart......

I can't say it anymore, and if I continue to talk about it, I will step on the red line, but fortunately, the Ming Dynasty does not prosper the literary prison, which is a hundred times better than what the Qing Dynasty.

However, the governor of Shaanxi said: "If the white-named crane is born two or three hundred years earlier, it will be really interesting." ”

The people around him looked at him and said in their hearts, you crazy person, you dare to say such things. The white crane was born two or three hundred years early, and it is estimated that he can torture the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty to madness, and there will be the current Ming Dynasty there, which has crossed the red line.

No one dared to pay attention to the governor of Shaanxi anymore and took his leave one after another.

On the other side, Bai Minghe rode back to the Bai Mansion in Guanzhong, in Daming, the merchant has the size of the merchant's house, and the first-grade official naturally has the first-grade official, the Bai Clan's mansion is not considered a violation, and it is given as the identity of the Earl of the White Crane, which is about five times larger than before.

In front of the huge archway that is three feet high and has a reinforced concrete building, the white crane respectfully kowtows three times.

In front of the Bai family, Wu Anjun Bai Qi's God of War Shrine, kowtowed three times.

Then in front of the Bai family's mansion, Bai Minghe kowtowed three more times and shouted: "Bai's descendants are not young, Bai Minghe ......" and then there was a 300-word speech, which Qinghe wrote for him, this is the rule of a big family, and it is also a kind of courtesy, because Bai Minghe has been away from home for three years, and there is no news at all.

The old lady of the Bai family, Bai Minghe's grandmother sat in the main hall with a smile on her face, waiting for Bai Minghe to enter the house and kowtow to her.

And the mother of the white crane sat on the sidelines and wiped her tears.

In the main hall of the Bai family, the arrangement of this seat made the Bai family very embarrassed, and finally placed two chairs on it, one for Bai Minghe's grandmother, the person with the highest rank in the Bai family. Then the other one was given to Angela.

To say why? This is the emperor, the emperor of the Byzantine Empire, who dares to let an emperor sit at the bottom, even if he respects the elders. If Angela refuses, the old lady will kneel for her.

The white crane is in the house, blindfolded, I don't know how to give a salute, according to the rules, he wants to kowtow to his grandmother, but Angela, what are you sitting next to, don't you kowtow to you, you are not afraid of losing your life. Bai Minghe stretched out his hand and moved: "Angela, come and kowtow to my grandmother with me!" ”

Hearing this, the old lady of the Bai family's face sank, and she lifted her head and covered her face with a stick. While scolding: "You kid, do you know the rules, let Banzai kowtow to my old woman, you are not afraid that I will be thundered immediately." (To be continued......)
