The New Year is approaching, and Zhu Huixian arranges for Yingniang to be responsible for purchasing New Year's goods.

But there is a big thing that makes Zhu Huixian and Yingniang feel that they must be solved.

That's the ancestral hall.

If there is no ancestral hall, how can you worship your ancestors?

In the past, if you don't set up an ancestral hall, you can still say it.

But now that Yang Chengying has been crowned king, how can he not build a temple.

When Yang Chengying returned to the inner courtyard, Zhu Huixian asked him to make up his mind.

Yang Chengying was also speechless for a while.

He came through time.

At the time of the crossing, both parents were still there. After all these years, although I don't know about my parents, I can't write their names on the tablet.

After crossing over, he was a small military family in Shenyang, and his parents died early.

Shenyang was captured by Nurhachi, and the military roster was destroyed long ago.

Yang Chengying also had no way of knowing the names of his parents.

"Otherwise, write the names of my grandfather and great-grandfather on the tablet."

Yang Chengying only remembered the name of his grandfather and grandfather's father before he crossed over.

The concept of family has weakened much in the 21st century.

"What about the spiritual position of the in-laws?" Zhu Huixian asked.

"Well, what's this......" Yang Chengying thought for a moment and said, "Maybe...... Maybe they are still alive, or they may hide in the deep mountains and old forests, so they don't set up tablets. ”

"Okay." Zhu Huixian said.

So, the ancestral hall was opened, people cleaned it, packed up the worship utensils, and set up a tablet.

Soon after, the rewards of the imperial court also arrived at the palace.

Yang Cheng received it, took it to the ancestral tablet, and burned the sacrificial text of the reward.

was looking at the burning flames, but heard the high potential outside:

"The king, the owner of the village under the princess's name asks for an audience."

Yang Chengying turned around and walked out, and saw Gao Qiqian holding the gift in his hand.

Gao Qiqian was very knowledgeable, presented the post and accounts, and unfolded the post.

Yang Chengying put his hands behind his back, looked down, and saw that it was written:

"Guo Taining, the owner of the princess's mansion, invited the king, the princess Wanfu Jin'an, and the prince and county lord Jin'an......"

This was followed by a large section of auspicious words.

Then there's the detailed list.

Yang Chengying looked at the cat: "Call Guo Taining in." ”

The little guy hurried to call.

A moment later, Guo Taining came in and kowtowed in the courtyard to say goodbye.

Yang Cheng ordered someone to help him up and asked, "How long have you been walking since you came to Shenyang from Guannei?" ”

"Back to the king's words, this year's snow is heavy, and it has snowed several feet deep. Originally, it was okay to walk on a snowy day, but I didn't want to suddenly melt the snow, and it was difficult to walk on the road, so I was delayed for some days. ”

Guo Taining replied: "After walking for a month and eight days, I finally arrived in Shenyang. ”

"Out of Shanhaiguan, did you encounter a post station to rest and eat?"

Yang Chengying asked again.

"Yes, there is a post every twenty miles. There are express delivery shops every ten miles, and it is very convenient to eat and stay. ”

Guo Taining said with a smile.

"In other words, your consumption along the way is actually not too large."

Yang Chengying asked with a straight face: "So, why is there so little food on the list!" ”

A team like this for the princess can get free food and drink at the inn.

The food consumed is counted on Yang Chengying's head.

Moreover, Li Guoying once went to several manors in the princess's mansion and found that the crops were growing gratifyingly.

How could it have changed all of a sudden.

Guo Taining hurriedly took two steps forward and reported: "King, it's really strange this year. In September, it snowed heavily, and many people were injured with their houses and food. ”

"You're not lying?" Yang Chengying deceived him.

"How dare the grass people lie in front of the king, this is indeed the case."

Guo Taining said: "The king doesn't know, not only the Zhuangzi under the name of the princess, but even the Zhuangzi under the name of the noble. ”

"Even you are like this, how should the landless people live?"

Yang Chengying sighed.

"Well, who's to say it isn't." Guo Taining said, "It is said that the imperial court apportioned the silver taels to the nobles to suppress the thieves, and the nobles cried poor one by one.

Some nobles even bought the clothes of the poor to wear on their bodies, and for a time, beggars were everywhere inside and outside the capital. ”

Yang Chengying listened to it and almost burst into laughter.

When Li Guoying was ordered by him to go to the capital to collect cash, he encountered this incident.

It is said that Zhou Kui, as the national abbot, only took out 5,000 taels of silver, and afterwards Queen Zhou privately gave Zhou Kui 3,000 taels.

In fact, Yang Chengying once sent You Shihun to check that Zhou Kuiguang's cellar in the capital was at least 560,000 silver taels.

It is really a moth of the country.

"You go down first and have a good rest, and I'll call you if there's something."

Yang Chengying sent Guo Taining away, and ordered someone to invite Fan Wencheng to come.

Before Fan Wencheng came, Yang Cheng responded to Gao Qi and said: "Father-in-law Gao, you are also a talented person, you can't go back to the imperial court."

It's better to go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on an errand and help me deal with officials of the imperial court. ”

Gao Qiqian was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "King, our family is a eunuch, how can we do the work of a minister." ”

"I don't care about that here, I only care about one thing, and get the errand done."

Yang Chengying said: "We will deal with a lot of officials in the capital in the future, and we have to rely on you to deal with it for me." ”

"Well, our family...... This one...... It's really not suitable. ”

Gao Qiqian is really worried that those who do things look down on him.

Moreover, he can't read a single big word, so how can he have the ability to do errands.

"This matter is so decided, after the year, I will explain to Ning after I finish, and you will go to him to listen to the errand."

Yang Chengying said: "I will send you a fortune according to the corresponding rank, and you don't always treat yourself as a eunuch."

To the outside world, I am an upright foreign affairs officer, and if anyone dares to look down on you, they will look down on me. ”

"That's it, then let's give it a try."

Gao Qiqian knew that Yang Chengying didn't need eunuchs here, and if he wanted to live a comfortable life in the future, he had to rely on his own efforts.

Because he saw Fan Wencheng coming, Yang Chengying asked Gao Qiqian to go down first.

Rise up and dive and retreat.

"The King."

"Mr. Fan, I thought of something and felt that I had to discuss it with you."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

"I found that there are still many landless people in Guannai. I plan to go to the imperial court and allow me to issue a reclamation order, so that people from all over the country can go to Liaodong to open up wasteland and cultivate land. ”

Yang Chengying said: "In addition to material rewards, there is also the full cooperation of post stations along the way to ensure that people do not freeze to death or starve to death on the road." ”

"That's a good idea, my lord."

Fan Wencheng said: "But it can't be carried out in winter, the winter in Liaodong is too cold, which is not conducive to long-distance travel.

It should be released in the summer, preferably just after the rainy season, for long walks. ”

"You're very thoughtful, I think so, you draft a note first."

Yang Chengying said: "After waiting for the year, I will let Gao Qiqian take it and go to the court to ask for his life." ”

"Yes, my lord." Fan Wencheng said with his fists clenched.

Fan Wencheng was indeed thoughtful, and he had to confirm the rights of land in western Liaoning, southern Liaoning, and Shenyang before starting to reclaim it, so that it would not be easy to form a conflict of interest.

Yang Chengying thought that maybe he could take advantage of this gap to develop new means of transportation.

For example, steam locomotives.
