Sun Chengzong is the governor of Shaanxi, the governor is in charge of civil affairs, and the governor is in charge of the military.

In fact, Sun Chengzong had already seen the secret decree brought by the angel and knew that he would be promoted to the governor of Shaanxi immediately, but this appointment decree was postponed for a while, and the reason here is a bit complicated.

After Sun Chengzong read the secret letter of the Son of Heaven, the expression on his face became extremely strange, and he pondered for a long time, and handed the secret letter of the Son of Heaven to his confidant Mao Yuanyi, Mao Yuanyi was indeed very capable and helped him solve a lot of troubles, and was regarded by him as his left and right arms.

After Mao Yuanyi read the secret letter of the Son of Heaven, he also had a strange expression, pondered for a while, and then sighed with his long beard under his chin, the emperor can grasp people's hearts so clearly, how old is this? This emperor's mental skill is so powerful that people have to admire.

"Dong Weng, we really can't do this kind of thing, and it's true that only Qiu Ba like Cao Wenzhao is suitable."

Sun Chengzong nodded and sighed, after the war, the local reorganization and construction, to appease the displaced people, need a lot of money and grain, the court can't take out so much money at all, the emperor also told him bluntly in the secret letter, and a lot of money, grain and character are in the hands of those landlords and old wealth, gentry and tyrants rape businessmen, if he comes forward, those stingy guys who want money and don't want to die will definitely give him some money like sending a child, and he doesn't need to come forward at all, people are giving it away for nothing.

In the face of the word "free delivery", how embarrassed is he to open his mouth, and the backer of these guys is the civil official group, moving them is equivalent to moving the cake of the civil official group, and it is strange that those civil officials don't look for him to work hard?

Although he is also a civil official, to be honest, he is a little different from the civil officials of the Donglin Party, at least he is not so black-bellied, everyone is an official in the same dynasty, he can't erase this face, he really can't play with food, Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng and other civil officials can't play either, the only one suitable for playing is Qiu Ba, who is as vulgar as Cao Wenzhao.

Of course, he is still very grateful to the Son of Heaven in his heart, the Son of Heaven took him out to clear up the relationship, and let Cao Wenzhao do the work of offending people, and he only reaped benefits on the side, not only him, but the civil officials and people in the entire Shaanxi Province owe Cao Wenzhao a great favor.

That night, Sun Chengzong called all his henchmen and cronies, discussed in the house for a night, and the next morning, under the banner of clearing the remnants of the people's army and inspecting various places, he led the Xi'an army out of the city with a black face.

The news of Governor Sun's blackface departure was quietly spread by people with good intentions, and soon spread throughout Xi'an Mansion, causing all kinds of rumors to fly all over the sky, and the more acceptable explanation is that Governor Sun did this to express his dissatisfaction with the Son of Heaven, and at the same time deliberately threw Cao Wenzhao's face.

In this crackdown on the civilian army, all the meritorious soldiers were rewarded, except for the rewards of Sun Chengzong and Cao Wenzhao, which made people a little stunned, the others were basically satisfactory.

Sun Chengzong was unexpectedly not promoted to the governor of Shaanxi, and still held the military position of the governor, Cao Wenzhao turned positive, promoted from the deputy general army of Guangping to the chief military officer, and really took charge of the army, he also had the merit of clearing and suppressing, although the promotion of the general military officer was a bit fast, but it was also so-so to say that it was reasonable, and he was also sealed as the deputy governor of Xi'an Prefecture, what is this? Is it the moderation of Sun Chengzong? The emperor is not afraid of chilling Lord Sun's heart?

Anyway, this explanation is quite reasonable, the emperor's mind is playing the art of balance, Sun Chengzong is resentful, under the pretext of purging the remnants of the people's army and patrolling the province, it is normal to throw his face to Cao Wenzhao, Cao Wenzhao has become a backstabber, and the Son of Heaven has also borne the infamy of the faint king.

Cao Wenzhao also had a strange expression on his face after reading the secret letter written by the Son of Heaven, and once doubted whether the Son of Heaven wanted to trap him, but fortunately, Qin Wentao, who had joined the army, explained on the side, so he dispelled the doubts in his heart and happily led his Guangping army to Xi'an Mansion.

Qin Wentao is one of Li Xin's classmates and friends, but he was unlucky, he failed repeatedly in the exam, and only took the exam to show his talents, and he was unsatisfactory, Li Xin and Cao Bianjiao had a very good personal relationship, and introduced him to a few classmates and friends who were not satisfied, and Cao Bianjiao accepted them, and served as a military record and staff member in the wolf camp, which was also approved by Zhu Jianen.

Zhu Jian also gave Cao Bianjiao a penetration, as long as his uncle Cao Wenzhao is loyal and has made meritorious contributions, he will be reused, and he will be in charge of an army alone, Cao Bianjiao is grateful and at the same time introduced Qin Wentao to his uncle Cao Wenzhao, the commander of the first army, how can there be no staff around him who can make suggestions?

In fact, who doesn't want to recruit staff to help with advice from a military general who can take charge of an army alone? It's just that the Ming Dynasty emphasizes literature over martial arts, civil officials are born with a high level of military generals, and they have always been on the wrong path with military generals, neither of them is happy, it is difficult to urinate a pot, even if the military generals want to recruit a desirable staff, it is very difficult, Qin Wentao's arrival naturally makes Cao Wenzhao happy and reused.

Qin Wentao has guessed a lot of secrets that outsiders don't know in the conversation with his friend Li Xin, he can be sure that the uncle and nephew of the Cao family are very trusted and reused by the Son of Heaven, and he will fly in the future, and he has a heart to work hard, and now he is very unsatisfactory, the family is almost unable to open the pot, helping Cao Wenzhao is also equivalent to helping himself, now Li Xin and Cao Bianjiao have given him a chance, how can he miss it, and naturally do his best to assist Cao Wenzhao.

Cao Wenzhao led the Guangping army into the city of Xi'an, the local gentry and strong businessmen even if they were not happy with him, they had to greet him with a smile, and set up a grand banquet to entertain him, no way, Sun Chengzong took the Xi'an army away, the defense of Xi'an Mansion depended on Cao Wenzhao and his Guangping army, the people's army was defeated, but they fled in all directions, ran to the mountains to become the king of the mountain, and robbed the house everywhere, causing a lot of threat to the caravan, in case Cao Wenzhao was annoyed, he picked his son and left, who dared to guarantee that those robbers and rangers would not rush into the territory of Xi'an Mansion to kill people and set fire to rob?

The gentry and powerful businessmen of Xi'an Mansion held a banquet to solemnly entertain Cao Wenzhao and a cadre of his generals, not only delicious and delicious entertainment, but also gave beauties, and gave 50,000 taels of silver, 200,000 catties of grain, sugar-coated shells bombarded Cao Dai in a daze, almost unable to distinguish between east and west, north and south.

A group of gentry and powerful businessmen are generous enough to make a move this time, if it is another general, in another period, it is worth giving you two pieces of silver and a little food, don't know what to do.

They are raising funds to send money, and each person will share more than 100 taels of silver and a few hundred catties of food, which is not as good as the cost of their hospitality and wine, but some people's psychology is a little dark, and they would rather throw it away than give it to you in vain, and the life and death of others are a matter of concern.

"Hahaha......" drunk and red-faced, the drunk Cao Wenzhao grinned and laughed, he accepted a few beauties, but the silver was pushed back, and he didn't say anything, with the support of several beauties, he patted his ass and left.

All the gentry and powerful businessmen present looked at each other, surnamed Cao, what do you mean?
