After leaving Wei Zhongxian's mansion, Zhang Jixian rushed straight to the Meridian Gate with 15 carts of jewelry without stopping, and with great fanfare, asked to see Emperor Tianqi.

Of these 15 carts, ten carts were for the emperor and five carts were for King Xin. But now King Xin still lived in the palace, so he brought them together. In this way, the battle became somewhat spectacular.

As for the fact that he brought it with him blatantly and confidently, it was because it was not to flatter the emperor, but was dedicated to the emperor in an upright and dignified manner. The war seizures during Mao Wenlong's conquest were the tribute that the emperor deserved from the conquered. This was a tribute that the emperor deserved.

This is an honor, because in these years, it has been the Ming Dynasty's external appeasement reward, and it has never received tribute from the conquered.

Originally, at Empress Zhang's insistence, the emperor tried to distance himself from his own family to prevent his relatives from harming the people by relying on his position as empress. Then, through the use of a domestic slave who made a mistake, some wanton and reckless behavior came into being.

The story of the father who was forced to return to his hometown.

But this elder brother was calm and capable. Apart from fighting with the little fat man, he did not do any bad things. He stayed in the capital, but he was also cold and indifferent to him. Unless Zhang Jixian asked for a meeting, he would not be summoned at all.

In fact, the kind-hearted Tianqi is still a little unnatural about this matter, and from time to time he takes the initiative to call this uncle to accompany his sister.

It was legitimate to ask for an audience today, and Tianqi was eager to understand the situation, so he handed the notebook in. After a while, a young eunuch came out to welcome him in.

The current eunuchs and maids are extremely close to the people who restored the Liao army in Dongjiang Town. They all know that Mao Shuai wants to build an ancestral hall for the men who died in the battle and a place for them to retire. How can they not be grateful?

?

No, the little eunuch who led the way kept talking about how handsome Mao was, and also took the initiative to quietly reveal the emperor's mood. This was actually very crucial.

When Zhang Jixian told him that Eunuch Wei had approved the land, Mao Shuai had allocated 300,000 yuan, and asked Mr. Wei Shizhong of the Ministry of Industry to supervise the work, and would start building the ancestral hall in the spring, and would invest another million to buy land for everyone to cultivate and provide for their retirement, this

The little eunuch burst into tears with joy, and within a short time, the great news spread throughout the palace.

It’s no wonder that the eunuchs and maids cried excitedly, because when the eunuchs and maids of various dynasties got old, their fate was very miserable. The first one was to be accepted by their relatives. There were a very small number of eunuchs who could return to their hometowns for retirement. They were also lucky ones, because eunuchs

After entering the palace, they were treated as a shame by their families and treated as aliens who were neither men nor women. If it weren't for the little money the eunuchs brought with them after leaving the palace, or because they had previously worked for the benefit of their family members and relatives, they would not have been accepted by their families.

The second type is to live in various places and do hard labor.

This is the fate of most eunuchs. They belong to the lowest level. After leaving the palace, they can only go to the temples scattered in the capital to do some work and coolies. They are all things within their ability. If they can't move anymore, they can burn incense and worship Buddha until the end of their lives.

end.

The elderly palace maids are the most miserable. The only way to survive is to go to a nunnery or a Taoist temple. Those who are not taken in have no choice but to beg on the streets and eventually die of cold and hunger.

Now everything is fine. Mao Shuai has invested money to build a retirement home for everyone, and bought 100,000 acres of fertile land for everyone to rely on. He finally has support in his heart. Why don't all the palace maids and eunuchs cry with joy?

Entering the study, Zhang Jixian felt that the study was a bit cold when he was paying his respects to Tianqi. When he knelt on the ground, his knees did not feel the warmth of Earth Dragon.

Seeing the expression of Zhang Jixian who quietly touched the ground, Tianqi explained with a smile: "The state is in a difficult situation. The profits of the business that Mao Shuai created have not really come up yet. The results have already gone somewhere. I can save money here."

Just save some money."

Tianqi is quite frugal and does not treat his daily life extravagantly. Especially at this time, it is somewhat different from history. In history, Tianqi was forced by Donglin to be completely ignored, and the actual eunuchs who helped him regain the imperial power had not yet truly formed a force.

, Tianqi can only be a carpenter unwillingly.

But at this time, Mao Wenlong kicked down several Donglin backbones in his last court battle, causing Donglin to lose several important positions, and the Lonely Chen Party began to show its signs.

The eunuch party who was ready to move took advantage of this opportunity to show their ferocity and snatched several key positions at once. For example, Gu Bingqian occupied the Ministry of Rites and entered the cabinet, Wei Guangwei also occupied the Ministry of Personnel, and Wei Shizhong of the Lonely Chen Party occupied the Ministry of Works.

In this way, the six departments that were originally controlled by Donglin and were weatherproof were taken away from three key departments. In addition, the Ministry of War was concurrently held by Sun Chengzong, and the four key departments all supported the emperor. Therefore, the current Tianqi has begun to waste the carpenter.

That dead-end job began to have a say in the governance of the country, which was not possible in the previous life.

Zhang Jixian kowtowed and expressed his gratitude to the emperor for his diligence and frugality with a sad expression.

Tianqi smiled and said: "We are all members of the same family. Get up and sit down. After you finish reporting on Mongolia, go back and see your sister."

As soon as he heard that he was allowed to see his sister, Zhang Jixian grinned. He was most afraid of seeing his sister. Every time he was not talking about family matters, it was simply to admonish him as an elder brother. He was nagging endlessly and his face was dark and ugly.

.If this were at home, my brother would have stepped in already, but now he can't do it. He is the queen of the world. Not only can he not talk back to his brother, but he also won't let him get up, so he just kneels and listens.

That is simply the most terrible punishment in the world. Thinking about the fact that he will be sentenced again soon, Zhang Jixian's head will be as big as one or three.

Looking at Zhang Jixian's bitter face, Tianqi laughed, and then said leisurely: "Don't be like that, we are all members of the same family. In fact, every time you were sent out of the palace, your sister would turn around and cry quietly, and she would often wake up at night.

I'm afraid that you will be bullied by others because of her suppression. Alas - poor queen for her hard work."

Tianqi and Queen Zhang have always had a very good relationship. No matter how Hakka and Wei Zhongxian tried to sow discord and encouraged him to establish a new queen, Tianqi remained unmoved. This was also done by Queen Zhang.

Hearing what his brother-in-law said about the cause and effect, Zhang Jixian was stunned for a long time before he realized how difficult it was for his sister. He couldn't help but shed tears just thinking about it.

Tianqi persuaded: "It's good to know that the Queen has good intentions. After we finish talking about the business, I will accompany you to see the Queen to ensure that you will not be bullied by the Queen." Then he said proudly: "This time you will not be bullied.

Capital. I was originally a dandy in the capital, but now I am fighting in battle. Although I have no title, Mao Shuai also praised you all in his book and mentioned your contribution. You have really made great contributions to the country. I am preparing rewards in the future.

In military honors, I will specially reward you with a job, and then I will actually reward you with an earl. When the time comes, the queen will be happy. If the queen is happy, I will be happy."

After receiving such a promise, Zhang Jixian almost fainted with joy. This is not a matter of title, this is a matter of his achievements being recognized. At the same time, here, he also gained the emperor's approval for Mao Wenlong's war against Duoyan tribe.

, this is a great thing.
