Wu Mengqian and Fang Wenzhao sang and harmonized.

At first glance, they are two self-cleaning humerus loyalists.

Zhou Xian knows that these two coercion are completely pulling calves with themselves.

Since the Huaixi General Army has been involved, it is reasonable for them not to collect money?

Zhou Xian paused and said, "Are you sure it's the Huaixi General Soldier?" ”

"It's true, Chitose Ye can send someone to Tianjin Wei to verify, and many officials were present at the time of the incident."

Zhou Xian stood up.

One meaningful glance at the two, and then left.

Yu Jinshan said in a flat tone: "Please, Master Chitose has an explanation, and he will not torture the two in the future." ”

It was drizzling outside.

Zhou Xian, who was returning to the palace, had already begun to think about how to rectify the nest of the Donglin Party in the south of the Ming Dynasty.

Yang Taixu? Yan Bingyun?

Yang Taixu is the secretary of the military department of Jinling City, and when Emperor Zhu Youzhen of Chongzhen was in power, he paid homage to the cabinet of the capital Jinling City.

That guy's official character is almost rotten to the bone.

The people complained about him greatly.

However, he is such a ruthless big man, and his background in the Ming and Huai regions is extremely strong.

And the wings are also quite plump.

Yan Bingyun is the chief soldier of Huaixi.

This guy also has a lot of power, and almost manages the military affairs of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions.

In the last years of the Ming Dynasty, the forbidden army in Beijing could not stop the emperor's command.

Not to mention the general soldiers who are stationed outside.

Although the status of the Huaixi general army is not as good as that of the other eight border towns of the Ming Dynasty.

But he also learned the essence of the decay of the nine sides of the Ming Dynasty.

That is, he has regarded all the military households in the Huaixi region as his vassals.

Zhou appeared to have a specific processing mindset.

If this matter involves the son of Yan Bingyun and Yang Taixu, then directly go ashore with Zhao Yanpei and hand it over to the Supervision Envoy and the Criminal Department to be responsible.

But now it seems that there is the participation of the Huaixi General Army.

Then the matter of Tianjin Wei and Jiaozhou Bay will also find a clue.

So, further up the case, there are still people.

Whoever it is, then we have to try to get the answer.

If the person sitting in the imperial city at this time is Emperor Chongzhen.

He didn't dare to move those powerful people rashly.

It's not why, it's just that I'm afraid of the military power in Yan Bingyun's hands.

But Zhou Xian didn't eat that set at all.

After Zhou Xian was imprisoned, he had already supported Lu Delin's Jin Wuwei.

and tempered the original lazy Praetorian Guard into a tiger army.

Especially the Praetorian Guards of the Imperial City, Zhou Xian directly replaced Jia Weikun and supported his nephew Liu Yuzhou.

Yan Mingtai, the secretary of the military department, also asked Zhou Xian to arrange a left squire for him.

Now it has also become a thin ice, cautious.

To a large extent, Yan Mingtai will not be cautious.

Moreover, Zhou Xian felt that Yan Mingtai's nature was not bad.

Therefore, Zhou Xian also reused him as much as possible.

So to put it bluntly, Zhou Xian is now in the south of the Ming Dynasty, and there is no one he dare not move.

What about the Ming Dynasty?

Wu Sangui and Zuo Liangyu, now Zhou Xian doesn't dare to move......

Those two old yin ratios are really too stable!!

But even so, Zhou Xian did not plan to send the Praetorian Guards to Huaixi to talk about Bingyun.

Because the current 20,000 Jin Wuwei lost half of them when they attacked Ge Yan.

The remaining Jin Wuwei is now stationed in Liaoyang City with Hong Chengchou.

And the 20,000 Praetorian Guards were brought to Xuanfu by Liu Yuzhou and 10,000.

The situation over there is also what Zhou Xian is most concerned about at present.

After all, Liu Yuzhou was ordered to enter Mongolia at any time to help Gegemu quell the rebellion.

Now, there are only 10,000 Janissaries stationed in the city of Beijing.

This cannot be arbitrarily deployed.

The current situation in the court, although those Donglin Party members are respectful and respectful on the surface, Chitose is long and Chitose is short.

But once they find that the imperial capital is empty, they will inevitably instigate Huaixi's Yan Bingyun to mess up.

Today's Ming Dynasty is most afraid of peasant uprisings and military riots.

There had been a mutiny of the army in Xuanfu Wucheng before, and now the Central Plains region is still staging a situation of invading the army.

Now, we can't let the disaster cause the wall.

There is another very important factor.

The two guys in the boss of the Pacification Division obviously didn't tell the truth.

If you listen to them and directly convict Yan Bingyun, it would be too frivolous and reckless.

So after weighing the pros and cons, Zhou Xian decided to send someone to secretly investigate the case.

In particular, the focus is on exploring the family of Yan Bingyun and Yang Taixu, the gate valve of Lianghuai.

Zhou Xian returned to the Qianqing Palace.

The first thing he did was to send a secret message to Cao Zhengchun and ask him to investigate the Yang family.

It's no wonder that when Xu Xianchun caught Zhao Yanpei before, Zhao Yanpei shouted "Go find Yang Gongzi".

Before, Jin Yiwei and Zhou Xian both guessed the identity of Yang Gongzi.

Now it has surfaced, and that person is Yang Yingxiong.

This Yang Yingxiong had been in Jinling City before.

Naturally, it depends on the relationship between his father Yang Taixu.

Then he returned to Huaixi, the family's home base.

The water in the Huaixi area is very deep.

We'll have to look into this slowly.

Early the next morning, Zhou Xian summoned hundreds of officials in the Qianqing Palace.

Hou Lianhui has something to do with his voice.

Sun Chengzong, the chief assistant of the cabinet, took the lead in taking out a booklet: "Chitose Lord, this is the list of the dead of Jin Wuwei who went to Liaoyang City to fight outside Liaoyang this time, as well as the number of pensions from the imperial court. ”

Hou Lian would present the roster to the imperial case in front of Zhou Xian.

Zhou Xian glanced at it, and the amount of bereavement required reached one million taels.

In other words, a dead Jin Wuwei can receive a bereavement pension of two hundred taels of silver.

That translates to 2.3 million.

Is that much?

During the Ming Dynasty, such a single soldier pension was already very expensive.

But in Zhou Xian's opinion, this is not much!

He had arranged for Han Shu to send six million taels of silver to Liaoyang City.

Now there are four million left.

Zhou Xian thought of this, and said in a deep voice: "Zhou Guangkai." ”

"The minister is here."

"The pension for the front-line casualties will be raised to four million taels, which will be allocated by Liaoyang City from within the military salary, and this decree will be paid one by one on the day it reaches Liaoyang."

"Yes."

"Chitose, what about Liaoyang City's military salary?" Sun Chengzong frowned and said.

"I will ask Yan Taiqing to allocate seven million military silver to Liaoyang City, in addition to one million two hundred thousand stone grain, and after three days, the military salary, grain and grass will be smoothly transported."

"Yes."

Sun Chengzong bowed slightly, and his heart was shocked.

More than 5,000 soldiers who died in battle were given a pension of 4 million taels of silver.

This is a large-scale gesture that has never been seen in the past.

You must know that at this time, the Ming Dynasty has long been overstretched, and the wind is leaking at both ends.

But this move will undoubtedly brush a wave of military morale.

Brush a wave of public opinion!

"What else is going on?"

Xu Rongbing said: "Qi Yu is a thousand years old, and Weichen has something to play." ”

"Lord Xu, please speak."

"On the orders of His Royal Highness, Weichen has joined forces with Sun Xianggong to divide the sub-sections and administrative jurisdiction of the official road."

"This is the specific list, please take a look at it."
