Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 628

Since Wang Tong placed Sanshui Wang's daughter Pearl and her youngest son in Tianjin Wei, Shen Wang came to Tianjin Wei regularly to visit his wife and children, but he never met Wang Tong of Tianjin Wei.

Even though his wife and children were like hostages in Tianjin Wei, Wang Tong didn't force him to do anything, so Shen Wang just pretended to be stupid and passed away vaguely.

Wang Tong's coercion of Shen Wang is also to ensure the basic safety of the merchant ships who come to Tianjin Wei to trade at sea. Pirates will not harass Tianjin Wei's port. Although the wife and children are precious, when it comes to life and death, the ruthless role is not something that cannot be abandoned.

Both parties pretended that the other party did not exist, and maintained the illusion of peace, but they didn't know why Shen Wang was so eager to see him.

"I'll see him tomorrow."

Wang Tong pondered for a while and didn't know why, so he simply put this aside, and said to Cai Nan again:

"After the rescue in the palace, His Majesty said that I was promoted to be the commander of the Jinyiwei Capital, but after leaving the capital, the capital sent a message that Zhang Siwei, Minister of the Ministry of War, was appointed as the chief assistant of the cabinet..."

After saying this, Wang Tong leaned back in his chair. In his own mansion, he was always much more casual than outside. There was a deep tired look on his face.

Hearing his words, Cai Nan pondered for a while, shook his head and said:
"My lord wants to do all this, I'm afraid there are still some obstacles."

"There are indeed obstacles. With His Majesty's confidant to me, I got this position. I look like Lu Bing, a force that plays a decisive role in the court. Zhang Siwei wants to be Zhang Juzheng's second, and he is the same in the court. How can I tolerate me?" go up!"

Not only did he look tired, but his voice was weak, but he spoke calmly. Cai Nan also smiled, and said:
"If our guess is correct, Zhang Siwei wants to be Zhang Juzheng's second, and the Empress Dowager and Eunuch Feng will also support him. In this way, the Empress Dowager and Eunuch Feng may also block your progress. road."

Wang Tong was silent for a while, shook his head and said in a low voice:

"It's really boring to work hard, fight life and death, and be suppressed by people's suspicion at the end..."

The room fell silent, Cai Nan cleared his throat, and said:
"Your Excellency has made such great achievements, it is impossible that there will be no rewards in the palace. There is no position for the commander of Jinyiwei. There will always be a real-time commander and acquaintance. When you arrive in Beijing, it will be convenient for you to contact the Long Live God. different."

There are often a certain honorable person, a student of a certain high school, who has the title of Commander of the Jinyiwei on him, the title of commander and acquaintance, and some people are directly the title of the commander of the Jinyiwei, but these are all vain positions, more like Yu's title of title sounds good, but he has no real power, and has nothing to do with Jin Yiwei.

Jinyiwei from top to bottom, at the top is the commander of the Jinyiwei, below are the two commanders of the Jinyiwei, and at the bottom are the two commanders of the Jinyiwei, each position has a fixed number of people and cannot be increased or decreased. The real high-level officials who command and control the practice.

Wang Tong originally had the real position of a thousand households of the Jinyiwei, and he also had the false title of commander and acquaintance. If he was promoted within the Jinyiwei, only the commander of the Jinyiwei would be able to repay this great achievement, but the Queen Mother and others categorically forbade it. , that is, the commander acquaintance.

Wang Tong thought this position was boring, but in the eyes of outsiders, this position was already a remarkable military position of relatives and nobles, with great power.

The atmosphere in the room was somewhat dull, Wang Tong bowed his head for a while, and said:
"Eunuch Cai heard something from them. This time, two groups of people assassinated me on the way. Although I am careless about the remnants of the Sanyang Sect, it is expected, but this other group The self-proclaimed Sanyang Sect really makes people wonder, who else regards me as a thorn in the side?"

When Wang Tong said this, he couldn't help laughing, but the laughter was extremely cold, without any warmth. Cai Nan's face became serious, and he said in a deep voice:
"In the government and in the opposition, there are too many people who don't want to see adults come to Beijing..."

"The officer will find out!!"

Wang Tong said something firmly.

**************
Zhang Juzheng, the chief assistant of the cabinet, died of illness, and the Sanyang Sect riot in the palace and Beijing. Everything subsided. When the Wenyuan Pavilion met, everyone found that there seemed to be no change, except that the position of the chief assistant of the cabinet was replaced by Zhang Siwei, and the position of Minister of the Ministry of War was changed. It's just Wu Dui, everything else is as usual.

"Your Majesty, the position of Commander of Jinyiwei is now vacant. Luo Sigong, the commander of Jinyiwei, is loyal, diligent, gentle and kind, and has many meritorious deeds. He is rightly serving as Commander. Your Majesty, please order!?"

Chief Assistant Zhang Siwei bowed down and said in a solemn voice.

Emperor Wanli was close to Wang Tong, and the adults in the cabinet and the eunuchs present, except for Zhang Cheng and Shen Shixing, had no such relationship.

Luo Sigong, the commander of the Jinyiwei, is naturally not an unknown person. All the bigwigs in the house who are a little bit more informed know who this person is. Luo Sigong has served in the Jinyiwei for five generations. The first generation is a hundred households. Already with the status of a thousand households, Luo Sigong's father is the commander of Jin Yiwei, so it can be said that the Luo family is the family of Jin Yiwei.

This kind of people may not have any intertwined relationship, but after several generations of Jinyiwei, they are familiar with all aspects in the capital, and everyone gives them some face.

Luo Sigong and others have been passed down from generation to generation, and when they do errands and things, they are very careful. They will not offend people or miss errands. No one can find fault with him, they can only praise him.

What's more, Luo Sigong is from a family of Jinyiwei, Jinyiwei Nanbei Town Fusi, experienced the division, the capital and various branches of thousands of households in the local area, he felt that this was his own family, and he was always in a high position. Do it, everyone can accept it.

Compared to Luo Sigong who can accept everything, Wang Tong is just a rising upstart. This Ping An brand has offended many civil and military officials who have property in the capital. He has just made a name for himself in the capital. Kicked out of the capital and thrown to Tianjin Wei.

When he went to Tianjin Wei, he set up cards on the canal to collect taxes, which offended people who hadn't been offended before. What's more, his family had been the lowest-ranking school captains and warriors for several generations. No one would want to climb on everyone's head.

Besides, he has been boxing and kicking in Tianjin Wei all these years. Jin Yiwei in the capital and the local government has never had any contact with him, and he is not familiar with him. I heard occasionally that it was Ge Qianhu who was killed by Wang Tong in the Qin Pavilion. The news of beatings, no one would feel close to such a person.

This was the case with the Imperial Guards, and so was the bigwigs in the court. Wang Tong was the emperor's confidant, but he was too ruthless in his eyes, and he was domineering.

Wang Tong set up cards on the canal to collect taxes, and people with fame and fame could not be exempted from taxation. He also opened up seas to promote maritime trade. In one place, an additional 1205 million taels of gold and silver can be sent to the palace every year, and Tianjin Wei is still thriving, and he has won several brilliant victories outside the Great Wall.

How can a military officer who can manage the locality so prosperously and amass so much wealth, but whose words and deeds are very different from those of literati, and even quite deviate from him, how can everyone be kind to him.

Although Zhang Siwei has just become the chief assistant of the cabinet, his prestige has not been established, and everyone does not respect him very much, but there is no objection to making Luo Sigong the commander of Jinyiwei.

On June 27, Zhang Siwei gave a presentation at the court meeting. When he said it, Emperor Wanli's face was indifferent, but he looked around at the ministers in the room. Shen Shixing bowed his head slightly. A big man in such a position must I will not rashly stand out on such occasions again.

The queen mother has already confirmed her intentions, and the foreign court has such a unified attitude. Before Zhang Siwei's memorial was presented, everything was a foregone conclusion.

It was only a few days before the thrilling incident in the palace. Emperor Wanli clearly remembered his promise to Wang Tong. After the blood station, he personally told Wang Tong that he would let Wang Tong be the commander of Jinyiwei. Call Wang Tong "Du Tang".He is the son of heaven, the so-called golden words, he made promises to his cronies who have the grace to save lives, but he couldn't keep them.

Emperor Wanli seemed to have a fire burning in his heart, but there was no change of expression on his face, he had to be patient and wait, he could let others know that he had resentment, but don't let others know that he had resentment.

After hearing the Queen Mother's message from Feng Bao, Emperor Wanli lost his temper and did not reply to any letter for two whole days. In the end, Zhang Cheng said to Emperor Wanli in private:

"Prince Lu is the brother of Lord Long Live..."

After hearing this sentence, Emperor Wanli was silent for a long time, and then calmly returned to the words of the Palace of Compassion, saying that he had agreed to this matter, that is, from this night onwards, Emperor Wanli would no longer live exclusively with Concubine Zheng , Li Depin's side, Wang Huang's side also occasionally stay overnight.

"Luo Sigong is a good person. After the cabinet vote is drafted, let's submit it to the Supervisor of Etiquette!"

Emperor Wanli said indifferently. After he finished speaking, Zhang Siwei raised his head slightly, looked at Emperor Wanli with a little surprise, knelt down again, and praised:

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"Wang Tong has made great contributions. He has been promoted to the Commander of Jinyiwei, and Zhang Aiqing will draft a ticket!"

Emperor Wanli's tone didn't change, but he stared at Zhang Siwei who was kneeling there. Since Luo Sigong gave way, the rest would not give way. Without hesitation, Zhang Siwei knelt down again solemnly, and said:
"The minister leads the order."

All the people in the room looked at each other, thinking about each other, Xiao Zhang was the chief assistant, it seemed no different from when Da Zhang was there, the emperor had to obey, seeing this scene, everyone understood what to do in the future.
