Chapter 521: Break and Stand

Half an hour later, the closed door of the office was finally opened.

Wei Zheng, the governor of Shanxi, with a smile of victory, was the first to walk out of the office.

Zhang Yan, the queen of Yi'an, who has always been known for her coldness, lowered her head and followed closely behind Wei Zheng.

Seeing this, you don't have to guess that everyone knows that Wei Zheng has succeeded. Therefore, before Wei Zheng walked in front of everyone, Zhou Shuyuan raised his fists and congratulated Wei Zheng.

"Congratulations to the handsome, hugging the beauty...... I hope that the marshal can continue to work hard and let us see the little marshal as soon as possible...... Only in this way can your foundation continue to prosper. ”

Compared with Zhang Yan, Wei Zheng's skin is much thicker. Therefore, as soon as Zhou Shuyuan finished speaking, Wei Zheng scolded with a smile: "Okay, you are a military, I'm not in a hurry as a handsome, what are you anxious about...... If you have the ability, you can also find a lady as beautiful as me......"

After some teasing, the smile on Wei Zheng's face was also covered by Yan SΓΉ.

Commanded at Zhou Shuyuan and Sun Chengzong: "Military, Chief of Staff, you should have seen the result...... Ben Shuai decided to make a quick decision, and five days later, he held a big wedding with Zhang Yan and Le An. You should know exactly what to do......"

"Ben Shuai's purpose is only twofold: first, to minimize the impact of this incident on our Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, and to ensure the stable development of Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces. Second, slap Chongzhen and the court hard. Let the imperial court know that calculating my Wei Zheng is definitely the most confused decision in their lives......"

Less than a day later, Wei Zheng, the governor of Shanxi and the marshal of the Tiger and Leopard Army, announced that he would hold a big wedding in five days. It's like a gust of wind. It spread within the city of Datong. And at a very fast speed, it spread to the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi, and even to all parts of the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, the news of this upcoming wedding is so fast. On the one hand, it is because of Wei Zheng's special status. On the other hand, it is because of the weirdness of the content of this big wedding news.

Everyone knows that the imperial court announced to the world a month ago. Giving Princess Le'an to Wei Zheng in marriage and getting a dowry of a total of five million taels of silver from Wei Zheng is like selling a princess in the imperial court.

In this case, after the news of Wei Zheng's big wedding spread, everyone's first reaction was that Wei Zheng was about to marry Princess Le'an, who he exchanged for five million taels of silver.

However, the news of Wei Zheng's upcoming wedding told the people of the world that Wei Zheng was going to marry two ladies at one time in his upcoming wedding......

Among the two ladies, one of the ladies is Princess Le'an. There is no doubt about that. Otherwise, the relationship between Wei Zheng and the imperial court had just eased. And because of this, they will break up.

So who is the other person besides Princess Le'an? Who has such a good fortune to follow the princess and marry the most powerful young man in the entire Ming Dynasty, except for being the emperor?

The Governor's Office did not give a clear answer to this question, but left it to everyone's private speculation and inference......

At this moment, Zhang Yan, director of the Department of Education, took out five million taels of silver without authorization to support the news of the imperial court, and the news of Wei Zheng's upcoming wedding quickly spread in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces.

In the face of this news, from the very beginning, the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi opposed Zhang Yan and Le'an coming out as officials, and handed over so much silver to the gentry and landlords who were managed by two women, just like wolves smelling fish......

In the face of this good news and bad news for Wei Zheng, the entire Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces fell directly into chaos. Of course, this confusion only refers to the official gentry and landlords from all over the country.

As for those ordinary people, after getting the news in advance that their great benefactor Wei Zheng was about to hold a big wedding, their thoughts were all attracted by this good news. I didn't have any extra energy, and I didn't want to pay attention to this news, which was very unfavorable to Wei Zheng......

Therefore, the seemingly chaotic situation in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces is actually within the control of the Governor's Palace.

Of course, at this time, some people may ask, since the Governor's Office has already had a concrete solution, why not immediately announce it, only to watch the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi fall into local chaos?

In fact, this is Wei Zheng's deliberate......

In this case, perhaps in one sentence, the purpose of Wei Zheng can be said very vividly, that is, the four words 'break and then stand'.

Through the chaos within the control of the governor's palace, I can see in one fell swoop which people in the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi are restless people and who can continue to be used by me. In this way, the hidden dangers of Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces will be solved at one time, so that the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi will completely become their own foundation.

Therefore, in the face of the increasingly fierce situation in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, Wei Zheng said directly: "If these people are willing to come out and make trouble, let them make trouble." When the time comes, Ben Shuai must let them understand a truth. At this time, whoever jumps the most happily will fall harder when the time comes......

As the day of Wei Zheng's wedding gets closer and closer, the small-scale chaos that occurred in various places has invisibly turned into a condemnation of Wei Zheng.

Of course, in these denunciations of diphtheria, without exception, there is the shadow of the imperial court.

On the night before Wei Zheng's wedding, Zhou Shuyuan and Sun Chengzong entered the study of the Governor's Mansion directly under Wei Zheng's order.

Looking at Wei Zheng, who was sitting firmly in Diaoyutai from beginning to end, Sun Chengzong was admired, and hurriedly reported: "Dashuai, in order to ensure the smooth progress of tomorrow's wedding, I have withdrawn the strength of an entire infantry division from the surrounding area of Datong and secretly entered Datong City..."

"As long as those little ones come up on the day of your wedding, I promise, they will be accused by us before they go out on the street..."

As soon as Sun Chengzong finished speaking, Zhou Shuyuan followed up and reported: "Marshal, the riots in all the areas controlled by my Tiger and Leopard Army have been counted. I have recorded all the local civil and military officials who played a role in promoting and even supporting this riot...."

"Not only that, Lord Wang, you have also selected more than three hundred grassroots civil and military officials from all over the country, who can be appointed and promoted at any time... As long as you give an order, these civil and military officials who are not of the same mind as us can be exchanged for them in no time......"

Wei Zheng nodded and affirmed: "We must not show mercy to these people, we must change what should be replaced, and we must not joke with our roots in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces..."

After finishing speaking, Wei Zheng continued to ask: "How are you preparing for tomorrow's wedding... Strategist, when do you plan to announce to everyone the news that this handsome marshal is marrying Empress Yi'an......"

Speaking of this, the tired expression on Zhou Shuyuan's face because he had been busy for several days was directly swept away. Not only that, but there was also a smile full of weirdness on his face.

Under the simultaneous gaze of Wei Zheng and Sun Chengzong, Zhou Shuyuan, who was smiling, replied decisively.

"Marshal, Chief of Staff, I intend to announce this news when the imperial court envoy arrives."

"I've received a message from the Imperial Court... The imperial court has sent a member of the royal family to attend the wedding of the marshal tomorrow with the emperor's holy decree..."

"There is no doubt that in the whole wedding, the time when the imperial court sent to read the holy decree was the most lively. In this case, only at this time can the news of the marshal's imminent marriage to the queen be made public, so that the purpose of slapping the face of the court can really be achieved..."

"I think I can..." Before Wei Zheng could speak, Sun Chengzong took the first step to speak.

"Although the court still doesn't know the news that the marshal is about to marry Empress Yi'an, when the marshal and the princess are marrying, marrying another person at the same time is already a slap in the face of the court in a certain way."

"In this case, if we can add fuel and vinegar and slap the court again, it will be an unprecedented humiliation for the court or for Emperor Chongzhen."

"Because, after this matter is made public from our mouths, Emperor Chongzhen will become a ruthless person who can even betray his sister-in-law and sister for silver..."

"Of course, while slapping the face of the imperial court and Emperor Chongzhen, he also slapped the face of the gentry and landlords in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, who are making trouble in the local area."

"Let them see what kind of court they have been pursuing..."

In the case of the same opinion of the two subordinates, Wei Zheng certainly would not have other ideas.

So, under the simultaneous gaze of the two pairs of eyes, he opened his mouth without thinking.

"In that case, then do as the military advisor says... However, Ben Shuai has a request, in the news you are about to announce, the focus of the attack can only be on the official gentry and landlords of the imperial court and the entire cholera in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, and the impact of the news on Zhang Yan must be reduced to the minimum. ”

"Please rest assured, Dashuai....Tomorrow, you will be the groom's official with peace of mind, and we will handle all other things. I promise to give you a special wedding..."

Since the Shanxi Governor's Mansion was relocated to Datong Mansion by Wei Zheng, Datong City, where the Governor's Mansion is located, has undergone two large-scale expansions in just two years.

In terms of scale alone, although Datong City is not as good as Beijing, it is not even comparable to Taiyuan City. However, the prosperity of Datong City is definitely above Taiyuan City.

A large number of merchants gathered in Datong City, coupled with the strong economic strength of the Governor's Palace. In just one night, Nuoda's Datong City has completely changed.

All kinds of festive red cloth lanterns are hung almost all over the streets and alleys.

As far as the eye can see, the fiery Datong City has turned into a sea of red in one night. (To be continued......)
