While taking stock of the acres of land and the hidden population, the prefectures, counties, prefectures, and townships under the Beizhili Prefecture devoted their energies mainly to resuming production and spring ploughing.

In order to make effective use of the existing production materials in the territory, the newly appointed township heads and village heads of the established local villages will organize the production of the local people in a unified manner, and important production tools such as ploughing cattle and ploughs and rakes will also be distributed by the local governments as a whole.

It's just that due to the limitations of the thinking of the local people, the sweet potatoes and corn and other crops introduced by foreign monks such as Tang Ruowang are not recognized by the people of Beizhili.

Song Guangkun did not use force to force these new production crops, but asked Li Xingzhi for instructions, suggesting that they should be planted in the Huangzhuang under Beizhili, and these crops should be promoted after the harvest is obtained.

Li Xingzhi thought so, because according to the report of Zhang Chengyu, the new eunuch of the seal of the celebrant supervisor, the imperial village to which Beizhili belonged was about 37,555 hectares, which means that the nearly 4 million acres of land that nominally belonged to the Yongli Emperor were actually Li Xingzhi's personal now.

Planting crops such as sweet potatoes and corn on their own land will naturally not cause a backlash among the people, on the contrary, many people have followed suit because they saw that Huangzhuang actually planted these crops.

Of course, while restoring local agriculture, the governor yamen also encouraged the local people to raise pigs, cattle, chickens, ducks and other poultry and livestock, and assured the local government that all the livestock raised by the common people would be purchased by the imperial court at market prices, and the imperial court would also provide corresponding preferential policies for those who were large farmers.

Resuming production, encouraging farming, and building a Miyun manufacturing base, so many things, a thousand things, are not something that can be done overnight, with Song Guangkun, Wang Hui and Feng Quan, who is bent on performing in front of Li Xingzhi, Li Xingzhi simply made a hands-off shopkeeper, just asking Jinyiwei to command Ma Sande to pay attention, because he has more important things to deal with.

In order to celebrate the change of the Son of Heaven, it has been said that the Shaanxi deputy general Gao Jie, the deputy general of Jizhou, Bai Guangen, the president of Jingying, the president of Jingying, Hu Dawei, the general soldier of Xuanda, and the Tianjin general Liu Guangyong, who escaped in Nanyang, and Jiang Xiang, the general of Datong, and Zhang Renxue, the general of Henan, all received the holy decree of the imperial court to see His Majesty in Beijing, and even Xu Dingguo, the deputy general of Shanxi, also sent his second son, Shanxi guerrilla Xu Erji, to Beijing to congratulate.

The people who can survive in this troubled era at the end of the Ming Dynasty and can still sit in the position of deputy general and general soldier of a town are naturally people with clear minds, and they know that the Son of Yongli is just a puppet pushed by Li Xingzi in the foreground, so after seeing the emperor in Beijing, they gathered in Li Xingzhi's prime minister's mansion.

"The last general is late, and I ask the prime minister for forgiveness."

As soon as they entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, Gao Jie and the others knelt on one knee, clasped their hands into fists, and gave a military salute to Li Xingzhi, who was sitting in the middle of the lobby.

"Xu Erji, the Son of Heaven has changed the Yuan, why didn't your father enter Beijing by edict? Does he want to emulate Wu Sangui? ”

Li Xing looked around at the people, when the court meeting, he had already seen these people, so he still had some knowledge of these generals who entered Beijing.

"The prime minister forgives the sins, when the prime minister first raised troops to enter Beijing, the father of the last general wanted to attach the prime minister's tail and send troops to Beijing, but Sun Chuanting did not dare to leave his post without permission, and now He Renlong, Zheng Jiadong, Li Guoqi and others led the army into Shaanxi, and my father did not dare to leave Taiyuan half a step."

Xu Erji sincerely knelt on the lobby in fear, and cursed his father Xu Dingguo's ancestors for three generations in his heart, is there such a pit as you? I was vacillating between the Yongli court and the king of southern Lu, and I was afraid that the Shandong army would enter the Jin, so I actually asked my son to take the blame for you.

"So your father is still a loyal minister of the prime minister, so you will stay in the capital division, the prime minister's mansion, and there is still a deputy commander of the guard, I don't know if the guerrilla is willing to give in?"

Talking to people who understand, Li Xingzhi doesn't want to pretend anymore, Gao Jie, Hu Dawei and others can go to their mansion to meet them, which shows that these people have agreed to be included in the Jingbei Army system, and if they still talk about what kind of loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty are, it will only make these generals feel disobedient.

"The last general received the order, and being able to serve the prime minister is a blessing that the last general has cultivated for eight lifetimes."

Xu Erji had a bitter face and smiled, he knew that this deputy commander of the guard would become Li Xingzhi's hostage, but he couldn't think of any reason to prevaricate at all.

"General Liu, please hurry up, it's really a life where you don't meet, when Li Jiashan said goodbye, I didn't think that the two of us would see each other again."

Whether Xu Dingguo is sincere or fake, Li Xingzhi doesn't care anymore, because Jiang Xiang, the general soldier of Datong, is kneeling in front of him at the moment, and the Jingbei Army can enter Shanxi at any time, so Li Xingzhi got up at the moment, walked down the steps, came to Liu Guangyong, and helped him up with his own hands.

"After the last general and the tiger general died in the battle of Lu Duchen, they were completely chilled by the imperial court, the former heard from General Meng that Lu Zhixian and the Liu brothers had already served in the army, and the last general and the tiger general gave up Wang Qiaonian to return to Beijing, and then only the prime minister's order must be obeyed."

Liu Guangyong is also full of emotion, three years ago he was still a general of the imperial court, Li Xingzhi is just a small bandit leader, but now things are wrong, the thieves who were besieged in Lijiashan by themselves have become the actual controller of the Ming Dynasty, but he can't raise the slightest jealousy, the reason is that Li Xingzhi's record makes him unreachable.

"Good...... Okay, it's okay to have Brother Liu's words, Brother Liu will rest in Beijing for a while, and when our army is rested, the prime minister will raise a large army, completely eliminate Li Zicheng, and avenge Brother Ling. ”

After comforting Liu Guangyong, Li Xingzhi exchanged pleasantries with the general soldiers of various towns who had a relationship with Xiangyang, such as Meng Ruhu and Hu Dawei, and finally turned his attention to Gao Jie, Bai Guangen and Jiang Xiang.

Gao Jie is also a strange person in history, he was a fellow villager of Li Zicheng, and he was also one of the generals of the peasant army who rebelled with Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong.

After Gao Ying's death, Li Zicheng took over the throne of the king, because there was no talent in the army who was proficient in arithmetic documents, he let his wife Xing take charge of the money and food of the righteous army, Chongzhen for seven years, the peasant army besieged Longzhou, two months, Li Zicheng suspected Gao Jie and Longzhou guard He Renlong colluded, so he ordered him to stay in the barracks.

Gao Jie is not only burly, but also quite handsome, Xing's every day in the camp to check the grain, this back and forth, and Gao Jie hooked up, later, Gao Jie was afraid that this matter would be discovered by Li Zicheng, simply did not do two endlessly, surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, therefore, Gao Jie became one of the most hated Ming generals in Li Zicheng's life.

"General Gao, why is it too late?"

Of course, Li Xingzhi would not ask in front of so many people whether Xing's first hooked up with Gao Jie, or whether Gao Jie was bold enough to climb onto Xing's bed by himself, but asked with a smile.

Gao Jie was also single, and he didn't say anything to admire Prime Minister Huwei, but replied: "The last general is cornered, don't vote for the prime minister?" Is it possible to turn around and vote for Li Zicheng? ”
