You can't help but let people look around, right?

Now there is really no place in Weijiazhuang for people to take a look at casually.

Because the whole Weijiazhuang, from people's clothing and style, to education, to production.

It's very different from Daming!

And his avatar everywhere, propaganda slogans everywhere.

If you want to talk about the cult of personality, the cult of personality in the area ruled by the Heaven and Earth Society is not comparable to Wei Zhongxian's kind of cultivation of a few ancestral halls.

Wei Bao finally persuaded Wei Zhongxian not to build his personal ancestral hall, and to build the ancestral hall is also placed with the emperor's statue.

When the time comes, he must not be convicted of deception and treason?

"That's okay, Weijiazhuang has been to our family, but it's been more than a year, and it's been good at the beginning, more than a year, with Master Wei's ability, it must have changed a lot." Liu Chao was also interested when he heard this.

Hu Liangfu and Ji Yong, the two great eunuchs, were also interested.

Where to go to fight the autumn breeze, this is the favorite thing of their high-ranking officials and eunuchs.

Wei Bao saw that what a few people said was in full swing, and there was no way to pretend not to hear it, so he laughed dryly: "It's not that adults and a few grand fathers are not welcome, but they are really poor and remote, and they are afraid of polluting the eyes of nobles." Or go directly to Shanhaiguan, there is a hall of heaven and earth business, the conditions are much better than in the countryside, if it is not to visit my parents, I don't want to go to the countryside, we are full of refugees, I am a kind-hearted person, someone asks to go to Weijiazhuang, I usually take it in. How many people have no food to eat, seeing that Lord Gao and several grand dukes and other court officials are not allowed to cry together, when the time comes, not only did they not play anything, but they blocked a few nobles and made trouble, and my sin was great. ”

Gao Di and a few big eunuchs listened to Wei Bao's words, dispelled a lot of enthusiasm, although a little suspicious that Wei Bao said too exaggerated, but they didn't think deeply, they felt that Wei Bao's territory was not just the countryside, the countryside, in fact, there was nothing to see, since going to Shanhaiguan was also equivalent to going to Wei Bao's territory, and there was nothing to go to the countryside.

Wei Bao hurriedly added: "Lord Gao, several grand fathers, when you arrive at Shanhaiguan, let you see that my hospitality is definitely not lighter than those local gentry." ”

Gao Di and several big eunuchs listened to Wei Bao say this, and they were all happy, obedient and listened to the sound, and heard what Wei Bao meant.

"Lord Wei has always been generous, and his heroic name is famous all over the world, who doesn't know?" Hu Liangfu smiled and patted his ass and said: "Lord Wei's affairs, in the palace, the big guys are all rushing to do errands for Lord Wei, and there are heavy rewards every time." ”

"Yes, if Your Majesty has any will to pass on to Lord Wei, who won't rush to go? Anyone who can't grab it will be sad for days. Ji Yong also smiled.

Gao Di and Liu Chao also smiled and nodded yes, and several people praised Wei Bao.

"I heard that Lord Wei has millions of people in his hands? The Liao people all ran to Master Wei? Gaudi asked suddenly.

Wei Bao was shocked again, secretly thinking that Gao Di's ability was indeed higher than that of these big eunuchs, and he asked about some critical topics.

"It's a lot of people, and I haven't seriously calculated that there should be 180,000 people, and it's not as exaggerated as millions. There are so many people, it's a big difficulty to eat, and I don't know how many people will starve to death every month! In this year, if anyone can manage a full meal, the poor people in the world can come! It's useless to have a lot of people! There are so many places for people to grow the land, look at the current year, either drought or flood, or earthquake, the days have not happened! Wei Bao said lightly.

Gao Di nodded when he heard this, "It's true, only the fertile land in the south of the Ming Dynasty is a good field, and in the north, there are many people, it's useless!" Master Wei is so kind-hearted, and it is difficult for a kind-hearted person to save a lot of money. ”

"That's right, people can't be too kind-hearted, if someone goes to Weijiazhuang in the future, Lord Wei will not take them all, there is no benefit, and it is said that Lord Wei, you are desperately recruiting people, I am afraid that I will suspect that Lord Wei has any intentions." Liu Chao kindly reminded him.

Wei Bao knew that Liu Chao had good intentions, this kind of rumor had been spread for a long time, Liu Chao was the chief eunuch in the palace, and the people around the emperor must have heard a lot, and Liu Chao had heard it, not to mention what they had heard in the entire Ming Dynasty and the local gentry.

Wei Bao shouted injustice: "Father-in-law Liu, we are the most familiar with us, right?" You know me, you also know the military, what can you do if you want some mud legs that can't eat enough? These people can't read a single word, what else can they do except eat? Am I just pure kindness, and I can't bear to see people freeze to death and starve to death? Follow me, not to mention that you can get through, it's better than being in Liaodong before, either being killed by Jiannu, or being squeezed to death by those big families who only know how to collect tenants, I just can't bear it. ”

"I know, I know, why don't I know about Liaodong?" Liu Chao said with a smile: "Whenever I hear someone say something about Master Wei, I will help to bring it up." ”

"Thank you, Grandpa Liu!" Wei Bao hurriedly thanked.

Ji Yong and Hu Liangfu also took the opportunity to sell well, and they both said that they didn't say a lot about Wei Bao outside, especially in front of His Majesty.

Wei Bao hurriedly thanked them one by one.

"It's just, Master Wei, you have taken away so many Liao people, and I'm afraid that no one has planted the land in Liaodong, right? Those big families in Liaodong must be angry! I don't know if it will affect the marriage between Master Wei and the Wu family this time? Liu Chao looked casual.

seems to be thinking about Wei Bao, but in fact, he is sowing discord.

What eunuchs like to do the most is to either make money, or sow right and wrong and sow discord!

These people are a bunch of mentally and physically unsound people.

"Probably not, at least not on the surface." Gao Di analyzed: "Lord Wei is the prison army personally appointed by His Majesty, and he is in charge of them!" Besides, Lord Wei is a big celebrity in front of His Majesty, they don't look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha, right? Also, how prestigious is the Wu family in Liaoxi? If you don't look at Lord Wei's face, you have to look at Lord Wu Xiang's face, right? ”

Liu Chao nodded, "Then the generals of Jiliao must give face even more, after all, Master Wei is a disciple of Inspector Sun." ”

Wei Bao didn't wait for Gao Di to speak, and took the lead in saying, "This is really not good. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Liu Chaoqi said: "Who dares not to give face to Master Wei?" Isn't that just not giving Inspector Sun face? ”

Liu Chaoyi came because he was interested.

Second, because of the meaning, there is a contradiction in this.

Third, because the purpose of their visit was originally to get rid of Sun Chengzong, this is the right thing!

Therefore, I was very interested in this topic, and my thin voice couldn't help but rise a lot.

Wei Bao shook his head, unwilling to say it.

In fact, Wei Bao wanted to get closer to Gao Di and the three great eunuchs, on the surface he was on their side, not on Sun Chengzong's side!

Otherwise, Wei Bao actually didn't care very much about whether Sun Chengzong and the Jiliao generals under Sun Chengzong would support him!

Wei Bao only cares about how much benefit he can get.

Otherwise, Wei Bao also has an indifferent attitude towards whether Sun Chengzong can continue to guard Liaodong.

In fact, whoever guards the town is the same, as long as he does not send troops recklessly, as long as he can call the Ming court to supply food and salary on time, he can gain a foothold in Liaodong.

It is not difficult to establish a foothold in Liaodong.

In the original history, until the eve of the fall of Chongzhen, the entire Ming Dynasty had collapsed and collapsed, and Shanhaiguan was still in the hands of the Ming army.

At that time, the rivers and mountains of the Ming Dynasty had already rotted away and no longer existed, didn't they still hold half of Liaodong?

Therefore, Wei Bao didn't care who was in charge of Liaodong at all.

As for Sun Chengzong's personal help, in fact, Sun Chengzong has already completed the task.

Now Wei Bao is already a member of the Zhengsipin Imperial Court, and has a friendship with the emperor, and also married the daughter of the British Duke Zhang Weixian, who is the son-in-law of the British Mansion.

With these profound political backgrounds, there is no help with or without Sun Chengzong, a teacher.

The current situation is reversed, Wei Bao does not need to rely on Inspector Sun, and Inspector Sun actually has a lot of things, but he has to rely on Wei Bao in turn.

Because Sun Chengzong doesn't have Wei Bao's connections and doesn't have as much money as Wei Bao, if he wants to do something, he won't have any way without relying on this student.

Gao Di didn't plan to say it, but when he saw Wei Bao starting, he said, "Lord Wei's concerns are not unreasonable. ”

"Oh? Tell me about it, how dare they not buy the face of the Inspector? Liu Chao continued to fan the flames with great interest.

In fact, Gao Di and Liu Chao also had similar thoughts, and they also wanted to provoke the relationship between Wei Bao and Sun Chengzong.

Gao Di pondered his words a little and said: "This is something that shouldn't have been said, but we are both good friends, so I'll just say a few words, Master Wei, are you okay?" ’

"It's okay, it's okay, Master Gao and Zai Xia are also teachers and friends, say whatever you want to say." Wei Bao laughed.

Gao Di then twisted his beard with a smile, and pretended to be a master and analyzed: "According to me, the attitude of the people under the Inspector completely depends on the Inspector!" I'm not afraid that the people under the Inspector will snub Master Wei, but I'm afraid that the Inspector himself won't treat Master Wei very well this time, I'm afraid that I will already have a dislike for a long time! Don't forget, Master Wei came with me this time, I, the Ji Liao Jingluo, and Lord Sun's position as the superintendent originally meant the same thing, how could one mountain accommodate two tigers? That's what we think, Master Inspector, doesn't he think so, what's more, the imperial court asked us to disarm, can they not hear about it? So I deduce that this trip to Shanhaiguan, the big families in Liaodong may be superficial, and the generals of Jiliao are likely to be too lazy to even do it, and it is difficult to say how many people come to participate in the marriage between Lord Wei and Miss Wu! ”

Liu Chao, Hu Liangfu and Ji Yong, the three great eunuchs, listened to Gao Di's thoughtful, thorough, and comprehensive analysis, and they all praised it and nodded in agreement.

"Master Wei, if you are a prison soldier and there are not a few generals from Jiliao, it will be very unsightly." Hu Liangfu had a bit of a tone of playing right and wrong, but he had an expression of concern for Wei Bao.

Wei Bao smiled: "I'm also worried, so I have already sent a post, asking them to come to Shanhaiguan to discuss matters, discuss matters first, and then attend my wedding, and the two will be together to see if they can come." ”

Gao Di, Liu Chao, Hu Liangfu and Ji Yong heard this, their eyebrows raised at the same time, and their expressions lit up.

I've secretly seen thick skin, it's really rare to see such thick skin, use this method to let people come to your wedding?

Are you Lord Wei so short of gift money?

Master Wei is naturally not for tens of thousands of taels of gifts, with Wei Bao's net worth, what he lacks is tens of millions of taels or hundreds of millions of taels of silver, and tens of thousands of taels of silver are nothing.

The key Wei Bao is also the same as Gao Di thought, I am afraid that the scene will not look good at that time.

"Then what if after the discussion, Jiliao's generals are all gone, and they still don't come to participate in Lord Wei's marriage?" Ji Yong asked.

"That's unlikely, right? Isn't that a clear show of not giving face to Lord Wei? I think it's unlikely. Hu Liangfu shook his head and said.

The eunuchs usually speak, and they don't all call themselves our family, only when they talk about it.

In fact, if you don't treat the other party as a eunuch, a eunuch is no different from a normal person in normal times.

They want to be men, but they are actually similar to women.

Wei Bao felt that if the eunuchs were treated as women, it would not be tiring to interact with the eunuchs.

"It's not good to say, I think it's still Lord Gao who is right, those people at the bottom, don't they mean to look at Sun Chengzong?" Liu Chaodao: "If Sun Chengzong is determined to embarrass us, relying on himself as the emperor and not taking us seriously, what can we do with him?" At most, write a book and participate in him! Sun Chengzong can't be moved! If Your Majesty is determined to ask Sun Chengzong to go down, won't he just make a holy decree? Why bother? ”

Wei Bao knew that whether it was Wei Zhongxian or Emperor Zhu Youxiao, who was persuaded by Wei Zhongxian, they all wanted Sun Chengzong to retreat in the face of difficulties, take the initiative to resign, take the initiative to return to his hometown, and forcibly dismiss Sun Chengzong's official, and the people of the world will definitely speak, it is not good-looking, and it is not easy to do.

If it weren't for such a great difficulty, Wei Zhongxian would not have used Wei Bao at the beginning, if he could help remove Sun Chengzong from power, and then cut the border army of Jiliao and Liaodong in western Liaodong into 100,000 people, and then make some contributions to the war in Liaodong, he would have given Wei Bao the position of governor of Haiphong Yamen.

The position of the governor of the Yamen, the governor of Haiphong, what a temptation, is a high-ranking official, absolute real power, an excellent position, and holding in his hand, who doesn't want the vast and prosperous places of Hejian Mansion, Cangzhou Mansion, Shandong and Denglai?

The most important thing is that this important place connects the north and the south, and whoever gets such a position, the connection between the south and the north is in the hands of the governor of Haiphong.

What a power that is.

Gao Di, Hu Liangfu, and Ji Yong all nodded in agreement with Liu Chao's analysis.

Wei Bao also perfunctorily agreed a few words, and then looked worried, and it was difficult to be a person in the middle.

Wei Bao's appearance, a few of them are embarrassed to keep provoking and squeezing the relationship between Wei Bao and Sun Chengzong.

Gao Di, Liu Chao, Hu Liangfu and Ji Yong all felt that Master Wei was too difficult, and Master Wei was the most difficult person.

After getting along for a long time, they don't treat Wei Bao as an outsider anymore, and they don't say that they completely treat Wei Bao as their own or anything.

Anyway, he doesn't treat Wei Bao as a hairless child who can't do things well, and really treats Wei Bao as a colleague in officialdom.

Before arriving at Shanhaiguan, just arrived at Funingwei, the grand welcome pomp began.

There are not only people from the Wu family, but also people with the names of heaven and earth, as well as the gentry and big families along the way, in the territory of western Liaoning, who dares not to give face to the Wu family and the Wei family?

Only there was no welcoming team from the Jiliao Governor's Mansion, and there was not even a single person.

This couldn't help but make Wei Bao even more worried, I don't know if Sun Chengzong will see him this time.

Seeing himself must be seen, because he is a prisoner, appointed by the imperial court, and has a public office, but he is not just a disciple of Sun Chengzong.

Wei Bao is afraid that it will not be good for Sun Chengzong to turn his face with him.

Wei Bao didn't write a letter to Sun Chengzong during this time, and he wrote more than a dozen letters before and after, all of which were written by himself, but Sun Chengzong never replied to a letter.

Wei Bao never understood what Sun Chengzong's thoughts were now.

Writing a letter to Sun Chengzong, Wei Bao has considered it, and he has always written in such a tone as a neutral faction and biased towards Donglin.

And not to believe in the capacity of leaning towards the eunuchs.

Wei Bao also has to rely on, after all, he once saved Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou!

Based on this article alone, who dares to say that Wei Bao is a hardcore eunuch? Who dares to say that Wei Bao does not have a good relationship with the Donglin Party,

Moreover, Wei Bao was originally awarded the title of bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and it was also the name of Zhu Yanxi, the minister of the Donglin Party, who personally helped him.

Therefore, in the eyes of many Donglin parties, Wei Bao is not a member of the eunuch party.

But even so, Sun Chengzong still did not reply to Wei Bao.

Originally, I could almost arrive at Shanhaiguan from Yongping Mansion in one day, and this way is a big official road!

All of them have been rebuilt with the cement of the Heaven and Earth Firm, and all of them are roads donated by the Heaven and Earth Firm, so it can be said that the entire Ming Dynasty cannot find such a good official road.

So when it's all horses and wagons, it's normal to arrive on a day.

But there are too many big families along the way, too enthusiastic, and they are all big families in western Liaoning, so they can't be lazy.

I can only rest in Funingwei and continue to set off tomorrow.

One was eating and drinking, and the next day at noon the same operation.

Mixed with these corrupt officials and corrupt officials, it seems that every day is spent soaked in wine and meat.

At this time, Wei Bao really experienced what is the life of Jiuchi Meat Forest.

Originally, according to the meaning of Gao Di, Liu Chao, Hu Liangfu and Ji Yong, they had to play in Funingwei for two days before leaving.

Wei Bao said that there were still a few days before the auspicious day of the zodiac picked by Wu Xiang, and the people of the Wu family had been urging, and Wu Sanfeng kept saying that he would go to Shanhaiguan first.

Wei Bao persuaded and persuaded him, saying that Shanhaiguan was more fun and the conditions were better, so he persuaded a few people to go on the road.

Departing in the middle of the afternoon, the convoy traveled very fast, and finally arrived at Shanhaiguan at dusk.

I haven't seen this majestic and heroic first level in the world for a while.

Wei Bao looked at Shanhaiguan from afar, and suddenly had a very familiar and intimate feeling.
