Daming heir

A heaven-shaking glory and wealth were now in front of Mahamu.

The price is just to bow his proud head to Ming Dynasty and bow his head to Ming Dynasty.

Zhenyuan Pass Yamen.

In front of the hall, the wind and snow were blowing, but the coldness was blocked by the stove under the hall.

Fan Chong clasped his hands together, and the green robe on his body hung down naturally, fluttering gently in the warm wind as a few people squeezed in from the front of the hall.

He spoke slowly, his tone calm and unruffled.

"The edict: The Ming Dynasty hopes to be safe, and it will dominate the world. The world is so big that the land outside the pass can be compared with King Mahamu."

With an absolutely calm yet majestic sense of speech, Fan Chong silently recited the contents of the imperial edict of the Ming Emperor Taisun that he placed in front of Mahamu.

Mahamu's eye sockets continued to shrink, and then suddenly widened.

His breathing began to slow down until he felt like he was suffocating.

Regardless of the content that states that the Ming Dynasty will give all the lands outside the Pass to itself, even Fang Yinhong's Baoyin of the Emperor Taisun of the Ming Dynasty Supervisor cannot be faked.

His body had become stiff, but he still raised his neck bit by bit, his eyes fixed on the calm-looking Fan Chong in front of him.

"This is real?"

After a while, Mahamu made a hoarse and urgent question in his throat.

Hu Yongning, the governor of Zhenyuan Pass, who was standing in front of the hall, was also suspicious.

The treasure seal of Taisun Fang cannot be faked.

Is all this true?
Fan Chong opened his arms again and walked to Mahamu.

Mahamu stood up hesitantly.

Fan Chong immediately smiled and said: "Who dares to cheat?"

Bang!
Mahamu opened his arms and hugged Fan Chong heavily.

"friend!"

"From now on, you will be my most sincere and inseparable friend, Mahamu!"

……

"friend?"

"Brother Hu, how much money do you think friends are worth?"

Still at the Zhenyuan Pass office, in the back office conservatory, Fan Chong stood by the window, looking at the falling snow outside, never looking back, asking quietly.

Hu Yongning, the governor of Zhenyuan Pass, who was standing behind him, nodded slightly.

"I think we need to discuss first what kind of friend this is."

Fan Chong put his hand on his chin, frowning slightly, as if he was estimating the price, and then slowly said: "The friendship between me and Mahamu is probably only worth half a carrot. "

It seemed like a joke was being told.

But Hu Yongning, who was standing behind Fan Chong, had a tense expression.

After thinking about it again and again, he couldn't help but stepped forward and whispered: "Shaoqing, you used a carrot to carve the grandson's treasure seal privately and lied in front of Mahamu. If His Highness knows about it afterwards, I'm afraid there will be disaster..."

Fan Chong stretched out his hand.

Outside the window, a crystal snowflake fell into his palm.

But it quickly melted into the palm of my hand and turned into a crystal drop of water.

Fan Chong shook his head, turned around and looked at Hu Yongning in front of him: "Governor Hu, why are you here?"

"Shaoqing has the emperor's order and is here to discuss the establishment of a mutual trade agreement with the Oara tribe."

"Do not."

Fan Chong still shook his head and sneered: "I am here to drain the last drop of blood from the Oara tribe and grind the last bone of the Oara tribe into bone powder for the imperial court!"

Hu Yongning felt a little uneasy: "But Mahamu will not really join our court just because of the fake... edict that Shaoqing came up with."

"Then let's give him the benefits he can get now!"

Fan Chong's eyes darkened in an instant, and there was a faint light in his eyes.

Hu Yongning raised his head and met Fan Chong's eyes: "Why would Shaoqing risk his own life to commit such an act of transgression?"

Fan Chong looked calmly at Hu Yongning, who puffed out his chest, straightened his neck, and stared at him intently.

"What if I say it's for the Ming Dynasty?"

……

Less and more.

Before it gets dark.

It is located in Yuanguan Pass, Zhenyuan Pass, Ningxia Prefecture, Shaanxi Province, Ming Dynasty.

Since the official document was issued by the customs office, grain, grass and weapons have been continuously hoarded here and sent to the residence of the envoys of the Oara tribe.

What's surprising is that no one cares about the entire Zhenyuan Gate.

In the meantime, only Zhenyuanguan General Yamen sent people to the Guansuo Yamen to inquire, and then there was no further action.

……

Yingtian City is three thousand miles away.

The Waijinchuanmen Longwan Pier, which used to be bustling and crowded in the past, has never been cleared and blocked by the government, but it has calmed down in a rare way.

It can even be described as neutral.

On the huge pier, around the trestles extending from the shore into the river, there were only a dozen official ships of various sizes parked sparsely.

The countless merchant ships, boatmen, sailors, laborers and household servants who collected commercial taxes in Tianfu were no longer seen in the past.

now.

It was noon, and the sun was shining brightly in the sky, but because it was winter, there was not much warmth.

Only staying in a sheltered place for a long time can make people feel warm.

At this time, a group of more than dozens of large and small warships appeared on the river from the lower reaches.

The warship stopped at the riverside not far from the pier, lowered its sails, dropped its anchor, and slowly stopped.

Only the huge treasure ship, after lowering its twelve sails that could cover the sky, relied on inertia and the help of the small boats on the pier to slowly enter the pier.

Bang.

On the trestle, as the treasure ship docked, a series of dull sounds were made.

The sailors on the ship threw the thick ropes off the trestle and asked the sailors on the trestle to tie them and fix them on the stacks.

An inclined ladder was pushed from the pier to the trestle, and then slowly leaned against the treasure ship's hull.

At this time, someone on the trestle shouted loudly to inform the people on the treasure ship that everything was ready.

Subsequently.

Under the watchful eyes of several officials from the Ministry of Etiquette and sailors on the dock who had been waiting here for a long time.

I saw several flags erected on the treasure ship.

"Deputy General of the Ming Dynasty's Eastern Expedition Army."

"Walking in the Wenhua Palace of the Ming Dynasty."

"The left minister of the Ministry of War of the Ming Dynasty."

The flag holder first lowers the treasure ship.

Finally, a young man wearing a third-grade red robe and a snow-white cloak was seen standing on the edge of the treasure ship.

Under everyone's gaze, he stepped on the ladder and stepped off the treasure ship to the trestle step by step.then.

The officials of the Ministry of Etiquette, who had been waiting here for a long time, immediately nodded and walked forward with smiles on their faces.

"Your Majesty, I would like to pay my respects to the Iron Scholar."

After leaving Beijing for several years, Tie Xuan finally returned from crossing the sea. His eyes took a deep look at the Yingtian City Wall not far away.

Then his eyes slowly dropped to the officials of the Ministry of Etiquette in front of him.

Tie Xuan smiled and raised his hand slightly: "Without courtesy, please get up. We are all on errands for the imperial court, so there is no need to be so polite. Please get up quickly."

However, none of the officials from the Ministry of Rites present dared to be rude.

Although the young red-robed official in front of him had only raised three official flags just now.

But there is an official flag that has just been sealed and has not yet been delivered, which is the most important thing.

"I heard that Xuanchen has many merits, wisdom and talents, and he is a great scholar of Wuying Palace."

The emperor's always brief and straightforward decree that he just announced to the court this morning is still clearly engraved in the minds of the officials of the Ministry of Rites.

Who dares to neglect the upstart in front of him?

Nowadays, everyone in the imperial court knows that although the official rank of the great scholar in the imperial court is not high, it is only the fifth rank, but it is the prerequisite for joining the cabinet.

Non-majors cannot join the cabinet.

This is already the default rule in the court.

Although His Majesty has not yet issued an order for Tie Xuan to be appointed to the cabinet, who doesn't know that he is waiting for General Tie Xuan's achievements in the past few years to be revealed one by one in the court.

Then, the decree will be officially issued and Tie Xuan will be appointed to the cabinet.

Moreover, after the spring begins, Duke Founder and Duke Cao will return to Beijing.

After those two returned to Beijing, they became the princes of the Jin Dynasty.

This time Tie Xuan returned to Beijing from the Eastern Expedition army first, which was also considered as a front-line stand.

To praise Tie Xuan in the court and make him join the cabinet is equivalent to paving the way for Duke Founder and Duke Cao to be promoted to the title of county prince.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites did not dare to slack off anymore. They bowed one after another and said in unison: "I thank you, Bachelor Tie."

The smile on Tie Xuan's face has never disappeared since he got off the boat.

The officials of the Ministry of Etiquette all stood up.

He just continued: "I have troubled you all to wait here for a long time. When the Japanese officials are busy reporting their duties in the past few days, I will treat you to a banquet to express my gratitude."

Everyone declined.

It was true that they did not dare to neglect Tie Xuan, but no one dared to have a close relationship with Tie Xuan.

Who doesn't know that the man in front of him has been in Yingzhou for several years, but with his scholarly heart, he has earned a reputation as a butcher for himself.

As long as they think of Tie Xuan's name, who wouldn't have an image of corpses and rivers of blood on the four streets of Yingzhou appearing in front of their eyes.

This young man can be awarded the title of Grand Bachelor of Wuyingdian, and may even join the cabinet soon.The reason why there is such a reward is actually due to the countless Japanese lives in the four provinces of Yingzhou.

The leader of the Ministry of Etiquette, the Qing Dynasty Officials Division, stepped forward with a smile on his face and said: "Scholar Tie has many matters to deal with when he returns to the capital. In addition, since the bachelor returns after several years, the imperial court will definitely give him another reward. Entrusted with important tasks. We dare not delay the bachelor's rest. If we tire the bachelor by then, it will be our fault."

After this person finished speaking, someone on the side immediately said, "The bachelor should enter the city. According to the rules, the bachelor will stay at Fanlin Temple outside Bei'anmen today.

It's just that His Majesty's imperial grace has issued a verbal order, requiring the bachelor to enter the Taisheji Altar before the palace gate closes tonight and meet at court tomorrow. "

Even if there is no news.

But just because Tie Xuan was allowed to return to Beijing and live in Taishe Ji today, it is enough to show that he will definitely join the cabinet in the future.

The person who lived in Taisheji after returning to Beijing last time was Gao Yangzhi, the youngest cabinet minister of the Ming Dynasty who entered Beijing.

Tie Xuan, however, has been away from Ying Tian for a long time, so naturally he doesn't know about Gao Yangzhi.

After hearing this, he couldn't help but frown: "Your Majesty's move..."

He did not dare to say that the emperor's arrangement was inconsistent with the rules and regulations.

But the meaning is clear.

The doctor from the Department of Ceremony and Cleaning smiled and waved his hand: "Don't worry, bachelor. The last time Gaoge Lao returned to Beijing, he lived in Taisheji."

After saying that, he gave Tie Xuan a meaningful look.

Tie Hyun understood the other person's eyes.

This is a hint that he will soon join the cabinet and become a member of the Ming Dynasty cabinet.

Tie Xuan smiled slightly: "Can you enter the palace before the palace door is locked?"

The Minister of Ceremony and Cleaning nodded: "Your Majesty's kindness is so great. Bachelors should keep it in mind."

Tie Xuan hummed and raised his hands towards the imperial city: "I will remember this and will not dare to forget the emperor's kindness."

Seeing that Tie Xuan understood, the doctor of the Ceremony and Cleaning Department stretched out his hand: "Bachelor, let's enter the city."

"Enter the city!"

……

"Now that I have come back and entered this Yingtian City, I will no longer act as recklessly as Yingzhou. I must think twice before doing anything."

Xie Jin, who deliberately finished his official duties at the cabinet early today, left Ren Hengtai and others who had long seen through him, and left the palace to the newspaper office under the east city wall.

In the backyard of the newspaper office, a pavilion was built under the apricot tree that had lost all its leaves but was growing stronger.

Relying on the stove in the pavilion, Xie Jin and Tie Xuan, who rushed here, never felt cold.

Tie Xuan nodded, picked up the tea cup in front of him, and warmed his stomach with the tea soup.

"Today at the dock, someone from the Ministry of Rites hinted to me that after returning to Beijing, I will be appointed to the cabinet soon. Is this true?"

Xie Jin looked at the bare apricot tree and smiled: "Do you want to join the cabinet?"

Tie Xuan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "Restricted!"

"Restraint?"

Tie Xuan glanced at Jie Jin lightly: "Since you joined the cabinet, how long have you not left Yingtian City?"

Jie Jin blinked and suddenly laughed.

Tie Xuan didn't respond. He just watched Xie Jin laugh enough and slowly stopped laughing.

At this time, Xie Jin slapped the table, and then pointed at Tie Xuan: "I know that it is impossible for someone like you who has been fooling around for several years to sit in the cabinet. Tell me, this time there is something wrong What are your thoughts? Let me tell you in advance that although His Majesty and the Crown Prince have not stated it explicitly, they probably intend to have you join the cabinet."

"Your Majesty and the Crown Prince?" Tie Xuan frowned slightly.

Xie Jin explained: "You have not forgotten that your Majesty added you the Grand Bachelor of Wuyingdian. Now in the cabinet, Duke Wei, Duke of Liang, and Marquis of Xiping are also added as Grand Bachelors of Wuyingdian."

Tie Xuan's eyes flickered: "Your Majesty and the Crown Prince intend to ask me to go to the army to monitor the armies?"

"If my guess is correct, this is probably the plan." Xie Jin turned the tea cup in his hand and said slowly: "You have been in the Eastern Expedition Army for many years, you are familiar with military affairs, and you are the left minister of the Ministry of War. I ask you to supervise the various affairs. The military is also a reasonable thing.

After all, even if His Majesty and the Prince are extremely confident about the army, the proper rules still need to be slowly established now.Just like the Jin Yiwei supervising all officials. "

Tie Xuan's brows furrowed even more: "But Jin Yiwei is not under the control of the Governor's Mansion."

Jie Jin glanced at Tie Xuan, who was full of doubts, shook his head, and said, "Since you don't want to join the cabinet, what are your plans next?"

Tie Xuan thought about it silently.

Then he said: "I have some ideas at the moment, but I haven't sorted them out yet."

"but……"

"The general direction is either the nine sides or the implementation of the New Deal in local areas."
