Ma Huanxi respectfully lit a stick of sandalwood and slowly poured the boiled hot water into the teapot. After the fragrance came out, he carefully lifted the teapot and poured two exquisite tea poisons into it. Prepare the utensil and select
Water, fire, waiting for soup, adding tea, brewing, brewing tea, all kinds of postures are beautiful.
Zhu Hengjia secretly praised: This slave has such good means.
The tea is good tea, Huizhou Usnea; the water is good water, water without roots; the utensils are good utensils, blue and white Sanskrit teapots, teacups, exquisite Cizhou official kiln; the artistic conception is good artistic conception, one king, one concubine, one eunuch,
One person gets the spirit, two people get the fun, and the three get the taste. Burning incense and drinking tea, the mind is pure and the spirit is happy.
It's a pity that the tea drinkers are not in the mood.
"Alas!" Zhu Hengjia put down the tea cup.
"Why is the prince worried?" Huang Wan asked gently.
Zhu Hengjia did not answer, but looked dullly at the box on the imperial desk. Inside the box was the secret record of Tao Cheng, the commander of Jinyiwei. A while ago, Zhu Hengjia felt that Tao Cheng had done a good job and promoted him from the governor to the commander.
Things.
If Zhu Hengjia didn't tell him, Huang Wan would never ask.
"How about I, my concubine, play a musical instrument for the prince?"
"Yeah"
Listening to the melodious music, Zhu Hengjia's mind flew to the box sent by Tao Cheng. The secrets in the box were extraordinary.
The first one, Dingbei Bo Fan Youxian, after pacifying the Mo family in Xincheng, received 300,000 taels of silver from the Mo family, but only handed over 50,000 taels.
When he first read this secret book, Zhu Hengjia was so angry. If you seize 300,000 taels, you can just steal 100,000 taels for yourself and leave 200,000 taels for the orphan. Or you can greed for half and leave half for the orphan.
Okay. How dare you covet 250,000 taels and leave only 50,000 taels for me!
Black, too dark!
It's useless to be angry. Fan Youxian is an old man of Jingfan, and he made great achievements when he supported it.
Yang Guowei's cousin was Zhu Hengjia's Concubine Chen Shu, but when everyone was discussing supporting Zhu Hengjia, Yang Guowei was a little hesitant and didn't dare to do it. Fan Youxian was so angry that he pulled out a steel knife and put it on Yang Guowei's neck, saying, "Why don't you follow us?"
If we support the establishment of Jingjiang King Supervisory Kingdom together, I will chop off your heads. This forced Yang Guowei to keep saying, I support it, I will definitely support it.
Such a great achievement! Are you going to punish the meritorious officials for a mere two hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver? What can you do if you make the meritorious officials feel cold? This can't be done. Besides, it was not Fan Youxian who was greedy for the two hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver, but
If you and a dozen generals are corrupt together, you can't convict these dozen people at the same time. Will Liuzhou Town be able to fight a war? So this matter really can't be done.
Since he couldn't do it, Zhu Hengjia could only pretend not to know. But he felt sour in his stomach again, so after learning that Yan Zungao would hand over all the seizures, he immediately promoted Yan Zungao to the rank of commander-in-chief, and deliberately did so in front of the generals, mainly because
Praising Yan Zungao in front of Fan Youxian: "If everyone is like Yan Zungao, why worry about the world being uncertain?"
"Oh! I don't know if Lao Fan understands it?" Zhu Hengjia thought.
In the second copy, Yuan Mingzhang, the prefect of Pingle, was lustful and had more than thirty wives and concubines.
Damn, there are only six Gu, and Jia Wan'er is just seven fairies. You actually have several times more than Gu! The most important thing is where does the living expenses come from?
Qiu Ziqi, the prefect of Nanning, whose family was extremely wealthy, actually spent a thousand taels of silver on a random meal.
Damn it, one thousand taels a day, doesn’t it cost more than 300,000 taels a year? How many soldiers can you support alone?
Zhu Hengjia kept a small account for them in his mind: the source of the huge wealth is unknown.
However, for now, we can only give in.
Zhu Hengjia is still plotting rebellion. Very few serious scholars seek refuge with him. Those who come are all crooked. It is easy to kill them both. Where can you find someone to help you govern Pingle, Nanning? Moreover, Yuan Mingzhang is in Pingle.
The preparation of food, grass and baggage is quite effective, but Qiu Ziqi is resisting Li Bao in Nanning, and Chen Shizhong is a native soldier and bandit. How can he be punished immediately when he is hiring people?
Therefore, this matter cannot be done. Things like rectifying the administration of officials can only be done after Guangxi is pacified and the imperial examination is opened.
In the third part, Sha Dingzhou, the chieftain of Yunnan, rebelled and drove Mu Tianbo, Duke of Guizhou, from Kunming to Chuxiong.
There is nothing we can do about this matter at the moment. Guangxi has not been defeated yet, and Yunnan is beyond its reach.
What if Sicheng Cen and Sha Dingzhou collude? It’s a headache.
The fourth copy??
The fifth copy??
The sixth copy??
Zhu Hengjia is not in the mood for tea.

"The minister Jin Yiwei commanded Qian Shi Tao Cheng to visit the country to supervise the country."
"Ma Jixiang, the imperial envoy of Jin Yiwei, visited the country to supervise the country."
"No need to be polite. Tao Qing, you are an old man alone, so you don't need to be polite; Ma Qing, your uncle has read it and your writing is very good," Zhu Hengjia said lightly.
Ma Jixiang, originally a surrendered general from Ding Kui Chu, was a famous handsome man in the Ming Dynasty. He was born with a dignified appearance and extraordinary appearance.
But Zhu Hengjia came through time and knew about Ma Jixiang's dark history. Historically, Emperor Yongli Zhu Youlang saw that Ma Jixiang looked like a loyal minister and had the merit of supporting him, so he made him Wen'an Marquis and Si Piaohui. As a result, he wielded power from top to bottom.
, caused chaos in the government, and was known as "Emperor Ma". After Emperor Yongli fled to Yunnan, he saw that King Sun Kewang of Qin was so powerful that he immediately abandoned Emperor Yongli and went to Sun Kewang, and even forced Emperor Yongli to abdicate with Sun Kewang. Later, King Li Dingguo of Jin drove
After Sun Kewang escaped, Emperor Yongli turned over and wanted to kill him. Seeing that the situation was not good, he defected to Li Dingguo again. Emperor Yongli could not do anything to him. The most annoying thing was that when the Qing army entered Yunnan, Emperor Yongli originally
He planned to flee to Sichuan, but Ma Jixiang was worried that the prestige of Sichuan Governor Wen An was too high and that he would steal his position, so he forced Emperor Yongli to flee south to Burma. As a result, the Southern Ming army was disorganized and surrendered to the Qing army.
p>
How could Zhu Hengjia dare to reuse such a person? So Yan Zungao and other demoted generals were promoted. Only Ma Jixiang stayed in the military camp to eat free food, euphemistically called military counselor.
However, Ma was also lucky. During this time, Zhu Hengjia asked Tao Cheng to form the Jin Yiwei. Tao Cheng was a royal school captain. He was good at wielding swords and guns, but was bad at writing and ink. Jin Yiwei, at best, is the eyes and ears of the royal family, at worst.
The point is that it is not easy to do this job. It not only requires collecting intelligence, but also analyzing intelligence. Staffing, organizational management, use of funds, etc. It is impossible to do it without knowledge. Tao Cheng worked for a few days, complained endlessly, and asked Zhu Hengjia to send some
Give him a scholar. Zhu Hengjia would not be able to find anyone for a while. Seeing that Ma Jixiang was idle, he asked Ma Jixiang to go to Tao Cheng's place to recycle the waste. No, he entrusted him with an important task.
Unexpectedly, Ma Jixiang was actually very talented in being a spy. He handled the Jinyiwei affairs in a tight and orderly manner, collected comprehensive information about the various chieftains in Guangxi, and made great contributions. However, Ma Jixiang did not like to take credit, and gave all the credit to Tao.
Cheng. Tao Cheng was so happy that he kept praising him.
Ma Jixiang also gave Zhu Hengjia "Preparation for the Construction of Jinyi Weishu", which explained how the secret service system should be established, how many divisions and offices it should have, and what their respective functions were;
Carry out activities in the controlled area; how to instigate enemy personnel; how to collect intelligence; how to contact the special agents? Write it clearly and clearly.
Zhu Hengjia looked at Ma Jixiang's comments and sighed repeatedly. He never thought that Ma Jixiang was really a good spy! As for Ma Jixiang's bad character, treacherous and insidious? Haha, the only thing that can be used is his treachery. If he is not treacherous, he will not do well.
Zhu Hengjia was secretly proud of his vision and asked Ma Jixiang to be the envoy of Jinyiwei Town to help Tao Cheng run the errand.
"Tao Qing, Sun Qing, you and I have read this, how much money does it cost to form a royal guard?"
"Reporting to the Supervisor State, the initial construction requires 80,000 taels of silver, and from now on it will require 50,000 taels of silver each year."
"It's accurate!"
