Chapter 544 Will Your Highness Enter Taiyuan City?

According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, local officials are not allowed to leave the territory without orders.

The arrival of the magistrates of the three counties in Taiyuan Prefecture made Zhu Yunxi, who had been ostentatiously trying to let everyone know of his arrival, somewhat unexpected as expected.

The Jinyiwei officers and soldiers who opened the way have already given way to the two sides on the official road.

Zhu Yunxi held the reins and let the horses under him go forward.

Holding the reins in hand, he followed Gao Yangzhi, and said in a low voice: "Could it be that Jing Chuanhou is going to sneak into Taiyuan City from the secret road with soldiers and horses?"

Capture the thief first, and capture the king first. If Zhu Yunqi asked Zhang Hui to dig the tunnel in Taiyuan City, it was not for him to escape from Taiyuan City, then the only thing left is to let people outside the city escape the attention of those in Taiyuan City. He entered the city silently.

A soldier who suddenly appeared in the city of Taiyuan could do many things.

Before the people in the city react, they can refer to the list given by Zhu Yunqi and arrest them one by one.

Zhu Yunxi looked sideways at Gao Yangzhi: "It seems that the second brother Gu is becoming more and more wise now."

Gao Yangzhi smiled.

It would be best if Zhu Yunqi could keep doing this, otherwise, the more intelligent he is, the less likely he will be able to survive.

This was deeply hidden in Gao Yangzhi's heart, and he whispered: "Your Highness, the officials from the three counties are here."

Before the official road.

The officials of Qi County, Taigu County, and Xugou County in Taiyuan Prefecture were already full of glory, and they stepped forward hand in hand with a respectful and humble demeanor.

"I am the county magistrate of Qi County, Taiyuan Prefecture."

"I am the county magistrate of Taigu County, Taiyuan Prefecture."

"I am the county magistrate of Xugou County, Taiyuan Prefecture."

"See His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun."

"Chen and others see His Royal Highness the Grandson."

Led by the magistrates of the three counties, a group of officials from the three counties bowed in front of Zhu Yunxi's horse.

Looking at the group of blowflies in front of him, Zhu Yunxi showed a smile on his face.

He turned the whip in his hand: "Get up."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

The county magistrate of the three counties got up and looked up at Zhu Yunxi who was sitting on horseback, with excitement and nervousness in his eyes.

The county magistrate of Qi County, with a bunch of smiles on his face, bowed his waist and cupped his hands and said: "Master Qi County Magistrate, in the name of the prefect of Taiyuan, I respectfully ask you to escort Your Highness into Taiyuan City."

An order from Taiyuan Prefecture?

Zhu Yunxi glanced sideways at Gao Yangzhi beside him.

Gao Yangzhi immediately smiled at the magistrate of Qi County and said, "Taiyuan Mansion is loyal and respectful, and it actually asked you three counties to invite you together."

With the order of Taiyuan Prefecture, the county magistrates of the three counties can naturally go abroad to meet each other.

The county magistrate of Taigu County stepped forward and explained: "Taiyuan Prefecture heard the news that Taisun patrolled Shanxi Road in the north and headed for the border gate of Datong. At this time, it was early winter, and the border gate was covered with heavy snow. Prepare the food, grass and cotton clothes needed by the army, and when the army and horses are dressed, the Dusi Yamen will order the Taiyuan guards and horses to open the way and escort His Highness to the Datong border."

"Taiyuan Mansion has a heart."

Zhu Yunxi folded his hands on the horse's back, looked down, and spoke calmly.

The county magistrate of Xugou County nodded and said: "The chief envoy heard that His Highness is coming to Taiyuan, and has rushed back from Baode to Taiyuan City. The commander of the capital has already finished his inspection of Zhenwuwei and Yanmen Pass from Daizhou in advance, and returned to Taiyuan City."

Baode is located in the northwest corner of Taiyuan Prefecture, the Yellow River is just outside the city, and Daofugu County, Shaanxi Province is opposite.

Zhenwuwei and Yanmenguan are both in Daizhou, and to the north is the Xiawushan section of the Great Wall.

Shanxi Dao, one civil, one military, two chief officials of the three divisions, are actually rushing back to Taiyuan City.

Zhu Yunxi turned his eyes and said softly: "Gu is just passing through Shanxi Road. Why do you ask the third division to put down military affairs and go back just for Gu."

The county magistrate of Qi County said: "Your Highness is the body of a thousand gold. We are the foundation of the country. This time, we are out of Beijing to make a northern tour. Shanxi has traveled thousands of miles to the capital. The third minister has not been in Beijing for a long time. I would like to take this opportunity to ask His Royal Highness."

Zhu Yunxi patted the back of his hand that was pressed down with his fingers, and stared at the county magistrates of the three counties of Taiyuan Prefecture indifferently.

There are no mistakes or omissions in these rhetoric and explanations.

I am the grandson of the Emperor Jian Guo, and the old man has given me the will to restrain the local civil and military affairs. The chief officer of the third division of Shanxi Dao knew that I was coming, and he wanted to come to see him out of emotion, reason and politics.

just.

These people, as soon as they meet, they will let themselves go to Taiyuan City, and they even appointed three county magistrates to wait for them.

Knowing the current situation in Shanxi Road, it was hard for Zhu Yunxi not to think that the county magistrates of these three counties had already voted for thieves.

As a matter of fact, the chief envoy of Shanxi Province and the commander of the capital who are rushing back to Taiyuan City are probably inextricably linked with the thieves.

Tap tap tap.

The sound of hooves came from behind.

Before Cao Zhenren arrived, his rough voice had already passed.

"The headquarters goes north to Datong. If you don't enter the city, the local government only needs to prepare the food and grass needed for the army."

When Cao Zhen spoke, his voice was as loud as a battle drum in an army formation, humming deafeningly.

Wearing armor, he rode up to the front of the team, sat on the horse's back, held the whip in both hands, clasped his fists and said, "Your Highness, since the people from Taiyuan Mansion are here, you can tell them to tell the Shanxi Chief Envoy to serve for our troops." Prepare food and grass for a month, and send it to Datong."

The expressions on the faces of the magistrates of the three counties present moved slightly.

Now the entire Shanxi Province knows that since the emperor's grandson entered Shanxi Province, every local government that passed by had to prepare food and grass for him for three to five days.

But now Jingchuan Hou Cao Zhen wanted Shanxi Road to raise food and grass for a whole month.

This does not seem to be for the purpose of the northern tour, but the appearance of going out to conquer.

The county magistrate of Qi County said slowly: "The Marquis of Jingchuan wants to use food and grass for one month. It may be difficult for Shanxi Road to raise funds for a while, and it will take time to make adjustments. I think that I will send a letter to Taiyuan City today, and wait for His Royal Highness to enter the city for a while. Rest for a few days, but you can raise enough food and grass for the army."

Cao Zhen's face was serious, and he hummed: "The army is out, and the speed of the soldiers is precious, how can they be delayed by food and grass. Wait for Shanxi Road..."

His voice suddenly cut off.

Zhu Yunxi raised a hand, glanced at Cao Zhen, and told him to bow his head immediately.

And Zhu Yunxi looked at the magistrates of the three counties in front of him.

"The lonely third uncle, is he in Taiyuan City now?"

The county magistrate of Qi County replied immediately: "His Royal Highness Prince Jin has not left the city recently."

As he spoke, the county magistrate of Taiyuan Prefecture raised his head and looked suspiciously at the emperor's grandson on horseback.

Zhu Yunxi's eyes showed thinking, and he said softly: "I just remembered that Uncle San Wang's birthday is coming soon."

Jin Wang Zhu's birthday is on November [-]th.

Count the days, and it's almost here.

And Zhu Yunxi knew this very well.

However, the county magistrate of Qi County thought that Zhu Yunxi didn't know the exact date, so his eyes suddenly lit up: "Returning to Your Highness, King Jin's birthday is on November [-]th, so it's almost coming soon."

The county magistrate of Taigu County immediately said, "Your Highness is in Taiyuan this time, so you can go to the city to rest for a few days, and then go north to Datong Pass after King Jin's birthday."

Zhu Yunxi patted the back of his hands lightly: "It's been a long time since I saw Uncle Three Wang."

The county magistrate of Xugou County looked at Zhu Yunxi's appearance and thought it meant to stay in Taiyuan City for a while, waiting for King Jin's birthday.

He couldn't help smiling and said, "Your Highness, go to the city and rest for a while."

Zhu Yunxi smiled, and looked at the magistrate of Xugou County with deep eyes: "Let's go first."

Immediately, he lightly twitched his horsewhip, and the horse under him stepped on its hooves again.

The officials from the three counties immediately stepped aside.

Looking at Zhu Yunxi, who did not say whether he wanted to enter Taiyuan City until the end, in front of everyone, surrounded by a group of northern patrol officials and Jinyiwei officers and soldiers, walking north on the official road, the magistrates of the three counties silently looked at each other With one glance, they all urged the people below to lead their horses over, and fell far behind the northern patrol officials to follow the large team.

"The magistrates of the three counties may be involved, but they may just follow orders."

On the official road to Taiyuan City, in front of the team advancing again, Gao Yangzhi said with a gloomy gaze.

Wang Xinling echoed in a low voice at the side: "According to past knowledge, the county magistrates of the three counties are not considered to be assertive people, presumably they should act according to orders."

Gao Yangzhi turned his head to look at this young fellow apprentice with a smile on his face.

He couldn't help thinking of another person.

Zou Xueyu, the magistrate of Yingtian.

Gao Yangzhi opened his mouth and said: "Taiyuan Mansion is the Daoist Office of Shanxi Province. There are not only Taiyuan Government Offices in the three counties, but also the Third Division, Xuezheng and other departments. Whatever the yamen says, the county magistrate below Taiyuan Mansion Everyone has to listen."

He thought back to the time when he brought Zou Xueyu and others back to Beijing from Jiaozhi Road, and everyone was divided into different positions.Zou Xueyu took the job of the prefect of Yingtian. At the beginning, he was ambitious, wanting to replicate the successful experience of Jiaozhi Dao to Yingtianfu.

Just a matter of building a new Shangyuanmen Wharf and excavating a new waterway in Xuanwu Lake made Zou Xueyu run into obstacles everywhere, asking for help from every yamen.

In the end, he had no choice but to cry to the cabinet and find himself, so that this matter could go on.

Zhu Yunxi looked at Fusun Cheng, Fusi Town of Jinyiwei North Town, who was guarding beside him.

Sun Cheng said immediately: "The county magistrate of Qi County was transferred from outside and took office only last year. The county magistrates of Taigu County and Xugou County have been officials in Shanxi Province for a long time, and they have a close relationship with Shanxi Province's political envoy Si Zuo to participate in politics."

Gao Yangzhi turned his head and looked over, frowned and said, "What kind of person is the Shanxi Provincial Governor Si Zuo who participates in politics?"

Sun Cheng glanced sideways, nodded and said, "Guo Yuchuang, the chief envoy of Shanxi Province, has been serving as an official in Shanxi Province. When the imperial court was preparing to open the central government, he was in charge of negotiating with Shanxi merchants in Shanxi Province."

"researched?"

Zhu Yunxi looked at the end of the official road in the north, his eyes moved quietly.

Gao Yangzhi and Wang Xinling looked over at the same time.

It is obvious that Guo Yuchuang played a certain role in it if Sun Cheng could specifically mention the old matter of the opening-up system.

Sun Cheng nodded and said: "Before His Royal Highness the officials of the Third Department of Shanxi Province entered Shanxi this time, the ministers and others had already sent to Han Yingtian to transfer the secret files, and then went to the Jinyiwei Hundred Households in Taiyuan City and Zhang Hui's place to inquire. few."

Zhu Yunxi clenched the whip and reins tightly in his hand: "Guo Yuchuang cast a thief?"

Sun Cheng replied: "At the time when the imperial court decided to open the middle system, not all Shanxi merchants could participate. Although Guo Yuchuang was a lowly official at the time, but because he had the power to verify Shanxi merchants, he finally handed over to him. More than half of the list of Shanxi merchants established by the imperial court was determined by him."

Zhu Yunxi hummed twice, his gaze became longer.

"So, we, Zuo Canzheng, must be respected in Taiyuan City."

This is very interesting.

No matter at the beginning of the country, the imperial court wanted to implement the middle-level system to raise food and grass for the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the frontier army. There is a kindness in it.

Gao Yangzhi said quietly: "Since His Highness is going to enter Taiyuan City, this Guo is participating in politics, I really want to meet him."

Zhu Yunxi sneered and said: "Cao Zhen said that we will not enter the city this time, and we always have to ask people from Shanxi Road to invite us three times and five times before we can enter Taiyuan City."

Gao Yangzhi asked: "Jing Chuanhou and his troops won't enter the city?"

Zhu Yunxi turned his head, looked at Gao Yangzhi, with a smile on his face: "Let him lead someone into the tunnel."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Gao Yangzhi suddenly laughed.

Falling aside, Cao Zhen, the Marquis of Jingchuan, who was in armor and commanded thousands of troops, couldn't help but rolled his eyes at the cabinet ministers.

……

The laughter from the front of the line carried to the back.

The magistrates of the three counties of Taiyuan Prefecture rode side by side on horseback.

The county magistrate of Qi County looked at the colorful Beijing officials in the northern patrol team in front of him, and sighed quietly: "You said, can His Highness Taisun enter Taiyuan City?"

The county magistrate of Xugou County sighed: "The order from the superior is always to send the grandson to Taiyuan City. As for whether His Highness wants to enter Taiyuan City, that is not something I can say."

The magistrate of Taigu County glanced at the magistrate of Xugou County, then at the magistrate of Qixian County: "Let's do our own thing well, after this errand is over, we can also go back to our respective homes and seal it to go home for the New Year. "

"That also needs to be able to live a stable life this year."

Last year, Hong Wu was transferred to be the county magistrate of Qi County in 27 years, with a dreamy chuckle on his face.

……

"Let the third child enter the city!"

Under the night, in the cellar of the small courtyard between the Li Mansion compound and Jin Wang Mansion in Taiyuan City.

Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhang Hui who came out of the tunnel, and spoke immediately.

Zhang Hui stuck the candle in his hand on the wall beside him, looked down to the left and right, and reached out to pat the dust on his body.

Then he raised his head and looked at Zhu Yunqi, who had an anxious face: "What's wrong? What happened?"

Zhu Yunwen frowned and said: "The gang of rebels and the Tatars have joined forces. These days, the gang of Shanxi merchants and people from the White Lotus Sect have been entering the city one after another. If they all come in, Taiyuan City will be destroyed by then. But there will be blood everywhere."

Zhang Hui curled his lips: "It's also the blood of the rebels."

Zhu Yunwen glared at Zhang Hui with a look of anxiety on his face.

Zhang Hui was a little surprised by his appearance for a while, wondering what kind of muscle this master had committed.

These days, I lead people to dig tunnels under Taiyuan City every day, and I can wash off several kilograms of soil from myself when I wash up every day.

Zhang Hui narrowed his eyes and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with you?"

Zhu Yunwen hesitated a little, his face blushed quietly.

I saw him whisper shyly: "My wife is pregnant..."

"what?"

Zhang Hui's eyes widened and his mouth opened, his face full of shock.

"Why does your wife have it?"

Zhu Yunwen stared at Zhang Hui with an idiot's eyes: "Of course it's because of me!"
