After Wang Yingzhi lowered his head and listened to the words brought by Zhang Daojun, he supported himself on the ground with his hands and wanted to get up, but he couldn't stand up in a trance.

Xu Congzhi, who participated in politics, and Shangguan Xun, the magistrate of Shunyi, hurriedly stepped forward to help him get up, and Wang Yingzhi said to Xu Congzhi uneasily.

"My heart is in turmoil, prepare the carriage and horse for me, I want to rush back to Zunhua as soon as possible, wait for the order of the imperial court, and hand over all the matters. Shunyi's matter, and I also bothered to invite Xu to participate in politics to finish. ”

Xu Congzhi took several county officials out of the city gate and sent away Wang Yingzhi, who didn't want to stay for a moment.

After the remaining Jinyi guards in the county government watched the civil officials and officials hug Wang Yingzhi and leave, the commander Zhang Daojun turned back to look at the remaining Jinyi Wei officials and said: "Except for Xu Baihu and Ye Baihu, the others will go to wait outside the hall first, Your Majesty has a will for the two." ”

Cui Yingyuan and Yang Huan, the two deputy hundred households, could only reluctantly withdraw from the county government hall, and after seeing that no one else was present, Zhang Daojun immediately put down the majesty of Shangguan.

He greeted Xu Xianchun with a smile on his face and said, "Lord Xu hasn't seen you for a long time, and your demeanor is better than before..."

Xu Xianchun was not unaccustomed to Zhang Daojun's overtures, and after he accepted it calmly, he said: "Zhang Daojun, please declare Your Majesty's will, we have been looking forward to it for a long time." ”

Zhang Daojun glanced at Ye Qi, who was standing beside Xu Xianchun and had been silent, before he said to Xu Xianchun: "Then please accept the will..."

Xu Xianchun was a little excited in his heart, and Chongzhen asked him to include other states and counties in Shuntian Mansion into the scope of the investigation, which obviously showed that he had passed the emperor's test and became a close confidant of His Majesty.

However, it is obvious that his status in the emperor's mind is still inferior to Ye Qi, who was simply promoted by His Majesty from the Huangzhuang Zhuangke.

From assisting in the clean-up of military cantonments, to independently presiding over the "cultivators have their fields" program. Ye Qi suddenly became a rookie in the brocade guard.

Zhang Daojun, whose name is deep, is the son of Zhang Quan, the governor of Liaodong, and his grandfather Zhang Wudian served as the secretary of the military department, which can be said to be a generation of official eunuchs.

However, Zhang Daojun had no talent for reading, and his father committed suicide after the fall of Liaoyang City, losing the possibility of coming out in the imperial examination. Therefore, by virtue of his father's loyalty to state affairs, he was awarded the opportunity to command the affairs of the Jinyi Guard, and to be in charge of the affairs of the guard, and turned to the military official.

Zhang Daojun was good friends with Yang Weiyuan, a well-known eunuch, and had a good relationship with Tian Ergeng. However, he has not been given a chance to reuse it all this time.

His sister Zhang Fengyi was the main room of Ma Xianglin, the envoy of Shizhu Xuanwei, although Shizhu Xuanwei Division was loyal to the Ming Dynasty, assisted the imperial court to quell Yang Yinglong in Banzhou, and went north to Liaodong to fight with Jiannu in the bloody battle of the Hunhe River, so Shizhu "White Pole Soldiers" are famous all over the world.

However, the strong combat effectiveness of Shizhu Tusi has also aroused the vigilance of some civil officials, not to mention the innocent death of the former Tu Sima Qiancheng at the hands of eunuchs, which makes them afraid of another Houjin in the southwest hinterland of the Ming Dynasty.

While suppressing the stone pillar's move to restore its combat strength, they also got close to Yongning Tusi Yu Chongming and tried to make soil with soil.

As a result, the father and son of the luxury family, who had long been dissent, took the opportunity to occupy Chongqing, and the rebellion of luxury Chongming in southern Sichuan broke out.

Although Shizhu Xuanwei immediately showed his loyalty to the imperial court after the rebellion in southern Sichuan, it was impossible for the suspicion of civil officials to disappear so quickly, so Zhang Daojun had already severed contact with his sister in order to avoid suspicion.

Zhang Daojun also knows that he does not have any outstanding talent in literary affairs, and as a military general, if you want to make meritorious contributions, you must go to the battlefield.

Today, there are only two places where the Ming generals can make contributions, one is Liaodong, and the other is Chuangui.

Although the Zhang family has a lot of family members, if they want to go to Liaodong to fight Jiannu, it is still a little worse. And when he went south to Sichuan, he was afraid that because of his in-law relationship with Shizhu Xuanwei Division, he would be rejected by those civil and military generals in Sichuan and Guizhou.

In hesitation, he saw that after Chongzhen came to power, Jinyiwei's power rose sharply, so he paid attention to his identity as Jinyiwei.

If Jinyi Weizhong wants to gain the attention of the emperor, if it is according to the past, it will naturally rely on handling major political cases that shake the government and the opposition.

But now, Zhang Daojun found that as long as he could promote the new policy promulgated by Chongzhen, he could also be valued by the emperor.

Compared with framing the party, it involves dangerous party disputes, and it is obviously safer to do good things for the emperor.

And Yang Weiyuan and others have been careful to keep a low profile since Wei Zhongxian stepped down. But after Wen Zhenmeng was expelled from the capital, their minds began to move again.

Yang Weiyuan and others believe that Chongzhen has no good impression of the Donglin party, but just lacks an excuse to expel these partymen from the court.

And as long as these Donglin Party members are expelled from the court, then those officials who think about overturning the case for the Donglin Party all day long can stop, and their crimes in these cases will not be liquidated.

Yang Weiyuan naturally couldn't convince them, and several Jinyi Wei leaders who had already defected to the emperor shifted their attention to Zhang Daojun.

They believe that after Zhang Daojun is a famous minister, he is also a high-level official of Jinyiwei, and he can undoubtedly gain more trust from the emperor by coming forward to accuse the Donglin Party members in the court.

Zhang Daojun doesn't think it's a good thing that he has a grudge with the Donglin Party at this time. Therefore, he simply went through the door of Tian Ergeng and Wang Dehua, left the capital, and went to Shunyi to pass the decree and observe the situation of Shunyi's land reform for Chongzhen.

Zhang Daojun took out an envelope sealed with wax from his arms, handed it to Ye Qi and said with a pleasant face: "This is the 'cultivator has his own land plan' conceived by His Majesty, Your Majesty said, you can take this as a reference, test it in Shunyi first, and if you have any problems, you can write to the capital at any time to report it." ”

Ye Qi took the thick envelope, his mind felt blank, he didn't expect that the emperor would attach so much importance to the words of such a humble person from a banker's background.

If it was said that he was only promoted by Chongzhen before, he was grateful and loyal. So now he really has a little bit of a feeling in his heart, and he wants to be in a state of mind for the emperor's career.

After the completion of the reform of Huangzhuang, he was ordered to investigate Juntun, and during this period, he also had some understanding of the Mintian in Shunyi.

Therefore, on the basis of how to carry out the military reform, he also proposed to the emperor that the nobles of the wealthy families should suppress the annexation of land.

As an emperor who was able to return the land of the imperial village to the guard, Ye Qi fantasized that maybe Chongzhen could strike at the nobles and magnates who were crazy about annexing the land and let them restrain their actions.

Even as an ordinary person, Ye Qi felt that the world was much worse than before, there were fewer vendors on the road, fewer regular customers came to restaurants, and the faces of the residents in the city gradually disappeared from smiles.

The chatter of merchants from other places in the restaurant is no longer the news that the goods in some place can be sold at a good price, but the news of thieves and the like in such and such places.

Ye Qi thought that in order to restore the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty to its former prosperity, it was not enough to clean up the encroached land in Juntun, what was needed was to let most people have a piece of land to live on and change the current situation of homeless people everywhere.

Ye Qi actually didn't think that the emperor could listen to his words from a small citizen, after all, there were so many national pillars of the country who were rich and wealthy above the court.

In the eyes of the small people, the scholars who can enter the court as officials are all stars in the sky, as long as His Majesty notices that the survival of the small people is not easy, and let those star monarchs care about the suffering of the people, the world of the Ming Dynasty will eventually get better.

However, the emperor's reaction exceeded his expectations, not only agreeing with his idea, launching the plan of 'the cultivator has his field', but also putting him in charge of this plan, which made Ye Qi feel sincerely afraid.

"In fact, the lowly position is shallow in knowledge, and it seems that some talents are insufficient to independently preside over this 'cultivator has his land' plan. Since His Majesty has sent Lord Zhang to supervise this plan, it is better to take Lord Zhang as the leader, and he is willing to assist from the side. Ye Qi, who received Chongzhen's letter, was terrified in his heart, so he asked Zhang Daojun for instructions.

A hint of joy flashed in Zhang Daojun's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. can preside over the plan that is valued by the emperor, and if you can succeed, you will definitely be appreciated by Chongzhen.

But he couldn't accept Ye Qi's kindness, as Ye Qi, who had already entered Chongzhen's sight, he enjoyed the power to do things, which was a power that most Jinyi Wei officers did not have.

So it seems that Ye Qi is only a hundred households now, but as long as he is a member of Jinyiwei, he knows that he has a great future.

Zhang Daojun didn't want to offend a future upstart in Jinyiwei because of this, and with Chongzhen's shrewdness, he wanted to take the credit of others, and if he was not good, he would leak the stuffing.

Zhang Daojun shook his head and said with a smile: "Ye Baihu said that he laughed, His Majesty's edict, how can we tamper with it in private." Ye Baihu, you will remember in the future, we are His Majesty's Jinyi Guard, not someone's Jinyi Guard. Therefore, whatever Your Majesty says, we will do, and we must not be clever ourselves. ”

Ye Qi suddenly came to his senses and hurriedly confessed and thanked Zhang Daojun. Ye Qimo rubbed the letter in his hand, thinking about opening it here? Or go back and open it again.

When the three Jinyi guards were talking in the hall, Xu Congzhi, who participated in politics, had already returned with the county officials of Shunyi, Sanhe, and Pinggu counties.

After sending off the governor, Xu Congzhi, who returned from outside the city gate, had already made a case in his heart.

Due to the disappearance of the fish scale atlas, the ownership of the Shunyi fields has become a confused account. If these Jinyi guards are really allowed to clear their land according to the money and grain inventory, then Pinggu and Sanhe counties may also have to follow the precedent of Shunyi, and it will be really a big mess in the world.

Xu Congzhi made up his mind, he wanted to fool up today's meeting first, first understand the current situation of the gentry in the three counties, and then discuss the matter of clearing the fields with these Jinyi guards.
