Chapter 521: Break and then stand
Half an hour later, the closed door of the office was finally opened...
Wei Zheng, the governor of Shanxi and Shaanxi, walked out of the office with a victorious smile.
Queen Yi'an, who has always been known for her coldness, lowered her head and followed Wei Zheng tightly.
Seeing this, you don’t have to guess that Wei Zheng succeeded. So, before Wei Zheng could even walk in front of everyone, Zhou Shuyuan picked up his fists and congratulated Wei Zheng.
"Congratulations to the Grandmaster, I'm holding the beauty back... I hope Grandmaster can continue to work hard and let us see the young coach as soon as possible... Only in this way, Grandmaster, your foundation can continue to prosper."
Compared with Zhang Yan, Wei Zheng's face was much thicker. So, just after Zhou Shuyuan finished speaking, Wei Zheng laughed and scolded: "Okay, military, I, the general, are not in a hurry. Why are you anxious... If you have the ability, you can also find a lady as beautiful as me..."
After some teasing, the smile on Wei Zheng's face was also covered with seriousness.
He ordered Zhou Shuyuan and Sun Chengzong: "Military, Chief of Staff, you should have seen it... I decided to fight quickly and decide five days later. You should be very clear about how to do it..."
"The general has only two goals: First, reduce the impact of this matter on our Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces to the lowest level, and ensure the stable development of Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces. Second, slap Chongzhen and the court hard. Let the court know that calculating Wei Zheng is definitely the most confused decision in their lives..."
In less than a day, Wei Zheng, the governor of Shanxi and the commander of the Tiger and Leopard Army, will hold a wedding in five days. It is like a gust of wind, spreading in Datong City. It spreads to Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, and even to various parts of the Ming Dynasty at a very fast speed.
Of course, the reason why the news of this upcoming wedding was conveyed so quickly is because of Wei Zheng's special identity. On the other hand, it is because of the strangeness of the content of this wedding news.
Everyone knows that the court gave Princess Le'an to Wei Zheng a month ago and received a betrothal gift of 5 million taels of silver from Wei Zheng, just like the court selling princesses.
Under such circumstances, after the news of Wei Zheng's wedding spread, everyone's first reaction was that Wei Zheng was about to marry Princess Le'an, who had received five million taels of silver.
However, the news that Wei Zheng was about to get married is told by the people of the world that Wei Zheng would marry two wives at one time in the upcoming wedding...
Among the two ladies, one of them is Princess Le'an. There is no doubt about this. Otherwise, the relationship between Wei Zheng and the court that had just eased would break up again.
Then who is the other person except Princess Le'an? Who has such a good fortune to marry the most powerful young man in the Ming Dynasty, except the emperor of the current dynasty?
The Governor's Office did not give a clear answer to this question, but let everyone make guesses and infer...
At this moment, Zhang Yan, director of the Education Department, took out five million taels of silver to support the court without authorization, and followed the news of Wei Zheng's upcoming wedding, and quickly spread in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces.
Faced with this news, Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces opposed Zhang Yan and Le'an from the beginning, and handed over so much money to the officials, gentry and landlords who were in charge of the two women. They were like wolves smelling fishy smells, biting this reason and writing to the Governor's Office, asking the Governor's Office to strictly investigate Zhang Yan and Le'an...
Faced with this news that Wei Zheng had profit and bad news, the entire Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces were directly in chaos. Of course, this chaos only refers to the officials, gentry, landlords who were born in the old masters in various places.
As for those ordinary people, after receiving the news that their benefactor Wei Zheng was about to hold a wedding in advance, their ideas were all attracted by this good news. They had neither extra energy nor wanted to pay attention to this news that was very unfavorable to Wei Zheng...
Therefore, the seemingly very chaotic situations in the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi are actually within the control of the Governor's Office.
Of course, at this time, someone may ask, since the Governor's Office has already had a specific solution, why not immediately announce it, but watch the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi fall into local chaos?
In fact, this was Wei Zheng’s purpose...
In this case, perhaps in one sentence, we can express the purpose of Wei Zheng very vividly, that is, the four words "break and then establish".
Through this chaos within the control of the Governor's Office, we can see clearly who are restless and who can continue to use it for me in the two provinces of Shanxi and Shaanxi. Thus, we can solve the hidden dangers of Shanxi and Shaanxi at one time, and make Shanxi and Shaanxi completely their foundation.
Therefore, facing the increasingly serious situation in the Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces, Wei Zheng directly spoke: "These people are willing to come out to make trouble, so let them make trouble. At that time, I will definitely let them understand a truth. At this time, whoever dances the most happily, will fall more ruthlessly...
As time goes by, the day of Wei Zheng's wedding gets closer and closer, the small-scale chaos that occurred in various places has become an invisible condemnation of Wei Zheng.
Of course, in these condemned diphtheria, without exception, there is a shadow of the imperial court.
On the night before Wei Zheng's wedding, Zhou Shuyuan and Sun Chengzong entered the study room of the Governor's Mansion under the order of Wei Zheng.
Looking at Wei Zheng, who was sitting firmly on Diaoyutai from beginning to end, Sun Chengzong was impressed and quickly reported: "Master, in order to ensure the smooth progress of tomorrow's wedding, I have drained a whole infantry division from the surrounding areas of Datong and secretly entered Datong City..."
"As long as those little girls emerge on the day of your wedding, Dashuai, I promise that they will be controlled by us before they even walked on the street..."
As soon as Sun Chengzong finished speaking, Zhou Shuyuan followed and reported: "Master, the riots in all areas controlled by our Tiger and Leopard Army have been counted. I have recorded all local civil and military officials who have played a role in promoting and even supporting this riot..."
"Not only that, Lord Wang, you have also selected more than 300 grassroots civil and military officials from all over the country. You can appoint and promote them at any time... As long as you give the order from the command of the Grand Commander, these civil and military officials who are not the same as us can immediately exchange them for nothing..."
Wei Zheng nodded and affirmed: "You must not show mercy to these people. You must change what you should change. You must not joke about our foundation in Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces..."
After saying that, Wei Zheng continued to ask: "How are you preparing for tomorrow's wedding? Military advisor, when do you plan to announce to everyone that the news that this commander-in-chief married Empress Yi'an..."
Speaking of this, Zhou Shuyuan's face was swept away by the tired expression that had been busy for several days. Not only that, there was also a strange smile on his face.
With Wei Zheng and Sun Chengzong looking at each other, Zhou Shuyuan, who was smiling, replied decisively.
"Master General, Chief of Staff, I plan to announce this news when the imperial envoy arrives."
"I have received a message from the court... The court has sent a royal family member to attend the Grand Marshal's wedding tomorrow with the emperor's imperial edict..."
"There is no doubt that during the entire wedding, the imperial envoy read out the imperial edict was the most lively. In this case, only by making the news that the general was about to marry the queen public can we truly achieve the goal of slapping the court..."
"I think it's OK..." Before Wei Zheng could speak, Sun Chengzong took the lead.
"Although the court does not know that the general is about to marry Empress Yi'an, when the general is having a wedding with the princess, marrying another person at the same time is to a certain extent, it is already considered as a slap in the court."
"In this case, if we can add fuel to the fire and slap the court again, it will be an unprecedented humiliation for both the court and Emperor Chongzhen."
"Because, after this matter was made public from our mouths, Emperor Chongzhen would become a ruthless person who could betray his sister-in-law and sister for money..."
"Of course, while attacking the court and Emperor Chongzhen, they also attacked the officials, gentry and landlords who were in trouble in the local areas."
"Let them see what kind of court they have been pursuing..."
With the two subordinates' opinions the same, Wei Zheng certainly would not have any other ideas.
So, while watching the two eyes at the same time, he spoke without thinking.
"Since that's the case, then follow the military advisor's words... However, I have a requirement. In the news you are about to announce, the targets of the targets of the government and the entire cholera of the court and the Shanxi provinces. We must reduce the impact on Zhang Yan to the minimum level in the news."
"Please rest assured by Dashang... Tomorrow, you will be the groom's officer with peace of mind, and we will leave all other things to you. I guarantee that you will have a unique wedding for Dashang..."
Since the Shanxi and Shaanxi Governor's Office was moved to Datong Prefecture by Wei Zheng, Datong City, where the Governor's Office is located, has undergone two large-scale expansions in just two years.
In terms of scale alone, although Datong City is not as good as the capital, and even Taiyuan City is not as prosperous as Taiyuan City. However, the prosperity of Datong City is definitely above Taiyuan City.
A large number of merchants living in Datong City, coupled with the strong economic strength of the Governor's Office, had completely changed in just one night.
Various festive red cloth lanterns were almost hung all over the streets and alleys.
