Until he walked out of the palace, Gao Pragmatic couldn't fully understand what Princess Yongning meant by handing over the fief to him, but he didn't bother to think about it, anyway, it was always a good thing to have a disaster relief fund, and he planned to participate in it himself, and in this case, it would be better in the name of the princess - no matter who you say has bad intentions, at least the princess of Daming can't be a rebel who wants to buy the people's hearts, right? She's not a prince or anything, and she doesn't believe a three-year-old child when she says it.

Overall, this matter is just an episode for Gao Shishi, and he will have something important to do soon.

Early the next morning, the celebrant sent a holy decree to the cabinet, specially appointed the Zhan Mansion Zuo Chunfang Zuo Shuzi and the Hanlin Yuan to be the envoy with full power for the affairs of the Shunyi King, and went north to preside over the canonization of all matters related to the canonization;

The edict ordered Zheng Luo, the governor of Xuanda, to transfer troops to protect the envoys and cooperate with the canonization;

The edict ordered Gao Wenjian, the governor of the three sides of Shaanxi, to guard the border pass and cooperate with the canonization matters;

The edict ordered Wanquan Division, Shanxi Xingdu Division, Shanxi Metropolitan Division and other towns to mobilize troops and horses to respond at any time;

The edict ordered Liang Menglong, the governor of Jiliao, Qi Jiguang, the general soldier of Jizhen, and the general soldier of Liaodong to be on guard at all times, monitor the movements of the Mongolian Chahar, Duoyan, Taining and other departments, and report at any time.

……

Zhang Siwei didn't say anything after reading it, and let them all go, but when he redrafted the edict, he added an extra sentence after Gao Shishi's article "going north to preside over the canonization of all matters": "Decide on the spot."

Then after thinking about it, he personally wrote four private letters and sent them to Zheng Luo, Xiao Daheng, Jia Yingyuan, and Xin Yingqian.

Of these four people, Zheng Luo is the governor of Xuanda, Xiao Daheng is the governor of Xuanfu, Jia Yingyuan is the governor of Datong, and Xin Yingqian is the governor of Shanxi.

Zheng Luo is a native of Hebei, but he has served in Shanxi for a long time, and politically belongs to the faction of Wang Chonggu and Zhang Siwei, and the situation of the other three is similar, although they are not from Shanxi, they have been officials in Shanxi for many years, and they have long been a typical Jin Party - in other words, it is difficult for the Jin Party to work long in Shanxi if it is not for this period.

The only difference between these four feudal officials is that Zheng Luo is a Jinshi in the thirty-fifth year of Jiajing, while the other three are Jinshi in the forty-first year of Jiajing.

Zheng Luo didn't mention it before, and the other three subjects in the same year were the examiners of Yuan Wei.

Yuan Wei is a famous prime minister of Qingzi, adhering to the fine tradition of the Ming Dynasty prodigies, he was also a prodigy when he was a child.

In the past, when Yuan Wei was ten years old, he followed his father to Qingdao in his hometown to watch the county order trial. Because others are small, they stand at the front. Seeing that he was focused and extraordinary, the county commander asked, "Who is this?" ”

His father replied, "This is a student dog." The county magistrate heard him call himself a student and knew that he was a scholar, so he asked again: "Is Ling Lang ever right?" Father Yuan replied: "Fang has not studied for a long time. ”

At this time, the county commander saw two white cranes flying in the sky above the Taoist temple, so he came out with a pair: "Double cranes flying on the Sanqing Palace." Yuan Wei replied: "Six dragons in the five-colored clouds." ”

The county magistrate couldn't help but say loudly to Xuezheng on the side: "Good answer!" Well answered! ”

Xuezheng is more strict, then said: "I can only say that he uses it well, this is the use of Lin Honggong's words in the 'five-color cloud car driving six dragons', just a word change, I think he just read this poem." The county magistrate smiled: "It's not easy. ”

Then the county order gave Yuan Wei a couplet: "Cast the son in all directions and open six sides." ”

Yuan Wei immediately said again: "My husband is virtuous and talented." ”

At this moment, even Xuezheng had to admire Xiao Yuan Wei's answers, and praised him: "This prodigy too!" ”

The story of hurting Zhongyong did not happen to Yuan Wei, this old man went all the way to the end, in the sixteenth year of Jiajing, he participated in the township test and won the second place. The following year, he won the first place in the examination.

When it came to the palace examination, the cabinet initially proposed Lu Shidao as the champion, and Jiajing Yubi was approved as the fifth place in the second class, and Yuan Wei was the first. It's a pity that when Wenhuadian read the volume later, because Yuan Weiyan was too straightforward, he changed it to the third and promoted Mao Zan to the first.

But no matter what, Yuan Wei's text is in place. There is a very famous couplet, many of which have been changed to the protagonist to be used, in fact, it is a wonderful pair of Yuan Wei, and the pair is written like this:

Luoshui Xuangui Chu Xianrui, Yin number nine, Yang number nine, nine hundred and eighty-one numbers, the number is through the Tao, the Tao is the beginning of the Tianzun, a sincere feeling;

Qishan Danfeng two are auspicious, male chirps six, female chirps six, six six thirty-six sounds, the sound is heard in the sky. Born Emperor Jiajing, longevity is boundless.

However, the two biggest characteristics of this person are not that he is good at writing green words, but that he is both good at selecting talents and jealous of talents.

There are a lot of jealous things, so let's not talk about it for the time being, and talk about selecting talents.

Just now, these three feudal officials are said to have earned face for Jiajing's forty-one years of gold list, which is enough to prove Yuan Ge's ability to select talents, but if you talk about the other three people he selected, then Xiao Daheng and the other three will be compared.

Because the other three are Shen Shixing, Wang Xijue, and Yu Youding.

Wang Xijue is still guarding filial piety in his hometown, so let's not mention it first, Shen Shixing and Yu Youding are the two elders of the pavilion today.

What does this mean? Of course, first of all, it represents Yuan Ge's ability to select talents in the past, but secondly, it represents the three feudal officials of the Jin Party, who are actually the same year as Shen Shixing and Yu Youding.

If it were ordinary Jin Party members—referring to those Shanxi officials—then Zhang Siwei might not have to write a letter to "say hello" at all, because they were also Gao Party and Shixue Party, and since Gao Shishi had passed with the title of plenipotentiary envoy, they would definitely cooperate vigorously.

But Xiao Daheng and the three of them are the same year as Shen Shixing and Yu Youding, so we have to pay attention to it, although usually they should at least not hold back Gao Shixing, but what if, Shen Shixing or Yu Youding personally wrote to ask them for help?

Zhang Siwei had to guard against this, especially in the Shanxi territory, and he would never tolerate any mistakes.

He was secretly arranging here, and Gao Pragmatic was not idle, and he also began to arrange it in the open and in the dark.

Cao Gan was still on the way back, but it didn't mean that he ordered the other subordinates of the Jinghua Trading Company not to move, he first sent the people of the Jinghua Trading Company to quickly report to Hannaji, saying that he was about to come to Tumut as a plenipotentiary envoy to preside over the canonization of the matter, so that he could secretly mobilize people and horses to control his territory, especially the all-important Dabansheng City.

Then crossed Cao Gan, mobilized the cavalry in Xuan, Da, and Shanxi, plus some of the cavalry trained in Jizhen, and put them together for selection, and selected 3,000 people as the escort soldiers for their trip.

These 3,000 horsemen were equipped with muskets that had not yet been installed by the imperial court, but because they were transferred near Gyeonggi, Gao pragmatic hesitated for a while, and finally did not dare to deploy artillery.

The artillery will definitely be asked for in the end, but it is estimated that it will be "borrowed" - after arriving in Datong, please ask Xuanda Sanzhen to allocate a batch of Jinghua-made artillery for him to use, anyway, they are all their own products, if there is a loss, he will definitely be able to compensate for it.

Since he contacted Han Naji, of course Zhong Jin Hatun also had to send someone to contact him, and Gao Pragmatic also relied on his big face, and asked his senior brother Wu Dui for a handwritten letter - this big Sima is Zhong Jin Hatun's "father-in-law", and his face is high and pragmatic and does not need to be in vain.

After these things are done, Gao Pragmatic only needs to wait. One is to wait for Cao Gan to return, but to wait for the Jingying to select and transfer the elite - he is an envoy to the Qin, and he has done such a major event as canonization, no matter how useless the Jingying is, he has to transfer some goods to him as a guard of honor for the Qincha, right?

However, Gao Pragmatism has a big face in the end, Zhu Yingzhen, Zhang Yuangong and others heard that it was him who sent Tumut, and they didn't wait for Gao Pragmatism to find them, and they took the initiative to go to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies one by one to turn over their military registration, and seriously transferred 500 "elite cavalry" to each of them.

It's hard to say whether the elite is elite or not, but these 1,000 cavalry are really good just by looking at the image, and they are more powerful than Gao Shishi's own cavalry - the Gao family cavalry only wears a piece of armor, and this batch of "elite cavalry" is fully armed.

Zhu Yingzhen and Zhang Yuangong came to ask for merit after finishing this matter, and praised these thousand cavalry as rare in the sky and unique in the ground, in short, it is to express a meaning: This is all depending on your Gao Longwen's face, change to someone else, let alone a thousand cavalry, two hundred cavalry to them, love it or not, and it is still casually transferred, how can it be like this?

Gao Pragmatic found that although the two of them came together this time, the "errand" of dedication mainly fell on Zhang Yuangong's head, and Gao Pragmatic understood what was going on with a roll of his eyes - Zhang Rong had just died, and Zhang Yuangong had not yet attacked the knighthood.

The attack of the Ming Dynasty was not inherited by Lao Tzu as soon as he died, and his son immediately inherited it, and it had to go through a period of investigation, and during this time period, if there was any illegal and unscrupulous thing, this lord would not be able to attack if it was not good.

As for the length of the inspection period, it is possible that some people will finish the work in a year and a half, while some people will investigate for ten years, or even longer.

Of course, Zhang Yuangong didn't want to be examined for ten years, so it was normal to be courteous in front of a close minister like Gao Shishi.

But for this kind of thing, Gao Pragmatic couldn't give him any letters, and only said something like "good intentions, thank you and thank you", which made Zhang Yuangong's heart go up and down.

When he finally left, he almost couldn't help but remind him, but fortunately, Zhu Yingzhen saw the opportunity quickly and interrupted with his words.

When he got out of the Gao Mansion, Zhang Yuangong asked Zhu Yingzhen why he didn't let him speak, Zhu Yingzhen shook his head and said: "Who is the truth, he knows what kind of fart you want to put out as soon as your ass is cocked, why do you bother to do this?" It should be yours, it will be yours after all, and you can't run. Instead of worrying about what he doesn't understand what you mean, you should think about how to make him happier. ”

Zhang Yuangong sighed: "You are right, I am too anxious...... But the cavalry we can pull out—I mean, barely passable, that's all, how can I make him happy?" ”

Zhu Yingzhen thought for a while and said, "Seeing that there are Gao family riders gathered over there in Xinzhai, I heard that they don't have cannons." ”

"You mean to ......" Zhang Yuangong's eyes lit up: "Let's bring more cannons and give them to him when the time comes?" ”

"Clever!"
