As for the two uncles and nephews of Li Hongji and Li Jin, the soldiers of Mengcheng.

After the three of them were summoned by the imperial court, they all hurried towards Jingshi.

On the way to Beijing, Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting and Hong Chengchou inquired about some things about the new emperor.

They all knew that the seventeen-year-old new emperor Zhu Youzhen had killed Wei Zhongxian in public, and he was a decisive 'tyrant'.

But.

They never imagined that the new emperor would still be a little nervous.

Why did he just say two sentences, and even Emperor Taizu said it?

You must know that the three of them are all Jinshi of the Sage Book, and they don't really believe in any ghosts and gods.

However, at this time, the emperor's face could not be refuted, and the three of them pretended to be calm and did it again.

"You are all the pillars of the Ming Dynasty, and now that the crisis is lurking, I can no longer wait for you to slowly experience growth, so I want to promote you quickly!" Zhu Youzhen watched the changes in the expressions of the three of them, and felt that he must have understood the grace of knowing the encounter.

"Hong Chengchou!" Zhu Youzhen said loudly.

Hong Chengchou hurriedly stepped forward and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, the minister is here!" ”

"Alas, flat, flat!" Zhu Youzhen waved his hand, first let Hong Chengchou get up, and then said: "Now there are many loopholes in the defense around the Beijing Division, I have appointed you as the governor of Beizhili, and concurrently serve as the trilateral review envoy, increase the rank of secretary of the military department, give Shang Fang the sword, and immediately consolidate the defense of the Jingshi generation." ”

Hong Chengchou's face was flushed, and his heart was full of passion!

This series of appointments is the top local military and political governor of the Ming Dynasty.

According to common sense, if Hong Chengchou, the governor of the grain council, does not have much merit, he may not be able to mix with this position and grade for the rest of his life.

is basically equivalent to modern times, a young deputy director, who became a provincial governor and a regional general.

"The ministers are shallow, and the qualifications are insufficient, I'm afraid ......" Hong Chengchou was extremely excited in his heart, but he still wanted to excuse himself.

Generally speaking, this is the practice in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty.

Who knows, Zhu Youzhen didn't give him a chance to shirk nonsense at all.

"Needless to say, you are capable, I believe! Moreover, when Taizu dreamed, he also said that you have great talents, and if you are not in the position of governor, you can't give full play to your talents! Zhu Youzhen's extraordinary wave of his hand directly moved Hong Chengchou.

"Knowing the grace of encounter, the minister will definitely break his bones to repay the country's kindness!" Hong Chengchou said.

"Okay, I believe that you must be a good loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty." Zhu Youzhen smiled meaningfully.

Hong Chengchou has the ability, but he can't stand the test of life and death, so he stays in Jingshi, and Zhu Youzhen personally looks at him.

Then, Zhu Youzhen looked at Lu Xiangsheng again and said loudly.

"Lu Aiqing, I heard that you are extraordinary in martial arts, and you have the courage of ten thousand people?"

Although Lu Xiangsheng is a jinshi, he looks like a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and his whole body is full of fierceness, and I heard that he can dance like the wind on a horse with a big knife.

"Chen has learned some martial arts, and he can barely deal with one or two thieves." Lu Xiangsheng said modestly.

Zhu Youzhen nodded, for Lu Xiangsheng, a loyal and brave civil and military all-rounder, he must be even more careful.

"I have appointed Yuan Keli as the governor of Liaodong to lead the defense of Liaoxi, Phi Dao and other places, but if you want to attack the territory of Jiannu, it is not enough to rely on them, I have decided to form an artillery and naval division of the New Guards Army, temporarily located in Denglai, and you will prepare for the drill." Zhu Youzhen said.

Lu Xiangsheng arched his hand and hurriedly said, "The minister obeys the order!" ”

"I appointed you as the governor of Denglai, concurrently the minister of trade and trade in Beiyang, and the rank of secretary of the military department, so as to fully control the maritime trade with Korea and prevent Korea from being attacked and infiltrated by Jiannu." Zhu Youzhen said.

According to historical development, after the start of Chongzhen, the Emperor Taiji of the Later Jin Dynasty had already begun to prepare to clean up Dongjiang Town and North Korea, and Zhu Youzhen had to prepare early.

Although he activated Yuan Keli and prepared to strengthen the strength of Mao Wenlong in Dongjiang Town, it was still far from enough after all.

"Obey orders!" Lu Xiangsheng replied with tears in his eyes.

God open your eyes!

His Lu Xiangsheng's enthusiasm for serving the country is finally going to be played!

The governor of Denglai, as well as the newly established minister of Beiyang trade, were also second only to the governor and the governor, the top feudal officials.

In the end, Zhu Youzhen looked at Sun Chuanting again.

For Sun Chuanting, Zhu Youzhen not only has a heart of love and talent, but also a little more distressed.

Sun Chuanting in history was forced to death by Emperor Chongzhen.

In an impossible battle of Tongguan, Sun Chuanting knew that he couldn't do it, but he still obeyed Chongzhen's orders and used his loyal ministers to prove Emperor Chongzhen's stupidity.

"Sun Aiqing, I appointed you as the governor of Shaanxi, concurrently served as the governor of Shaanxi, Gansu and Yanning, added the rank of squire of the military department, and gave Shang Fang the sword!"

Zhu Youzhen clearly remembered that the peasant uprising in northern Shaanxi, which destroyed the Ming Dynasty, occurred a year later.

As the most barren area, the people of Shaanxi have been crushed by the Ming Dynasty and even the dregs are about to be broken.

At this time, except for the absolutely loyal Sun Chuanting, who can go to Shaanxi to save the situation, no one can.

After all, the only way to solve the problem of famine and food shortage in Shaanxi was to deal with the local wealthy merchants and the wealthier vassal kings.

"The people of Shaanxi are bitter, for the sake of the people, I will also send the inner court to investigate the embezzlement of the Qin clan and other clans, when you are in Shaanxi, if you are short of food, then discuss it with Cao Huachun, the eunuch I sent." Zhu Youzhen said with a smile.

"Obey orders!"

Sun Chuanting's heart was more or less uncomfortable.

He could understand what the emperor meant, which was nothing more than to find an excuse to force the vassal kings to take the silver and land.

Sun Chuanting, the governor of Shaanxi, once he unites with the eunuchs, he will definitely rectify whoever he wants, and he can't say a word about them.

"Oh, by the way, when you get to Shaanxi, go find someone for me." Zhu Youzhen suddenly thought of something, and said to Sun Chuanting.

"Your Majesty, who are you looking for?" Sun Chuanting asked.

"He should be called Li Hongji now, or Li Hongji." Zhu Youzhen was a little unsure.

The famous King Li Zicheng, that was later changed to his name.

"Your Majesty, is this person in the army, or in the government?" Sun Chuanting asked again.

"It should be regarded as in the official mansion, he is the post guard of Ningxia Weiyi Station, and his name was also mentioned when Taizu dreamed." Zhu Youzhen said flickeringly.

Sun Chuanting was puzzled, but he didn't dare to say anything.

The emperor who is the king of a country is outrageous enough to promote these four or five officials.

If you personally promote a post boy, it is simply a bit appalling.

However, a sentence of Taizu made Zhu Youzhen speak confidently, and no one dared to persuade him.
