Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 228
Unexpectedly, the call was so urgent that Zheng Sen didn't do any preparations before he wanted to see him at first.But what to pay attention to when meeting the saint, the servant who led him into the palace also explained it on the way.

"Zheng Sen, a native of southern Hokkien, kowtows to my emperor, long live, long live, long live!"

On the cloud platform, when Zheng Sen saw Emperor Chongzhen, he knelt down and shouted loudly before he could see clearly.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at him as soon as he saw him, because he knew that the young man in front of him was one of the two most famous people who fought against Jianlu after his death.It is also because he regained the senior officials, and the evaluation in later generations is higher than him.

But at this moment, looking at Zheng Sen, he really couldn't see that this kid would have such a high achievement in the future.

After Zheng Sen finished seeing the ceremony, Emperor Chongzhen said kindly: "Pingshen!"

After hearing this, Zheng Sen got up immediately, with his hands drooping, his head lowered, and he kept the facial details explained by the servant.

Emperor Chongzhen could see that Zheng Sen's hands were shaking a little. Obviously, he was too excited about meeting the saint for the first time.

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen said with a smile: "Do you know why I summoned you to Beijing in an expedited [-] miles?"

The answer to this question, Zheng Sen has always wanted to know since the moment he received the decree.Hearing this at this moment, he immediately forgot the servant's order, raised his head, looked at Emperor Chongzhen, and replied curiously: "Why?"

It wasn't until this time that he saw clearly that the current emperor seemed to be older than he imagined!
Emperor Chongzhen looked at him and said with a smile: "Because I have received a treasure reminder from Emperor Taizu, you will be one of my loyal ministers and generals. Therefore, I will naturally call you all to my side as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Zheng Sen was immediately excited.

Emperor Taizu reminds the current emperor that he is a loyal minister and good general?This was approved by Emperor Taizu!

When he thought of this, he was really overjoyed!What else can be more sure of yourself than Emperor Taizu's positive comments on himself?

Those who look down on themselves, those who think they are dudes, those who think they are only rich, and those who worry about their future, come and listen, this is what Emperor Taizu said!

At this moment, Zheng Sen suddenly didn't know what to say?

I don't even know where to put my hands!
In short, he was very excited.

In the end, all Zheng Sen could think of was to kneel down and shout: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help laughing again when he saw him like this.

On Zheng Sen's body, he couldn't feel the characteristics of those old fritters, he just felt immature!Compared with those old fritters, I really want to deal with such people.

"Stay flat!" Emperor Chongzhen ordered again.

After hearing this, Zheng Sen got up again.

After he stood up, Emperor Chongzhen said to him: "I want to see your talent first. If you do well, I will reuse it in the future!"

Hearing this, Zheng Sen quickly raised his head, and excitedly said to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, please tell me that as long as the grassroots can do it, they must do it well!"

Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, it's good to have this ambition. I will temporarily designate you as the General Banner of Jinyiwei, and lead a team of Jinyiwei to go south to Yangzhou to take charge of more than 2000 million taels of silver over there. Collaborate to purchase supplies for the imperial court and transport the capital. I will explain the details to you later, would you like to?"

When Zheng Sen heard this, he couldn't help but froze.

Although compared to other people who rushed for eight hundred miles, the reward he got was not high.However, Jinyiwei is the emperor's pro-army, and he is the most trusted by the emperor, and his Jinyiwei general banner is not the kind that only receives a salary in vain, but a team of Jinyiwei will really obey him.

The most important thing is that the emperor said that he was going to be in charge of the purchase of more than 2000 million taels of silver. This amount was so large that even he, a son of a rich family, was very surprised.

How much trust did the emperor have to hand over so much money to him?

And the emperor also said that this is just a test of himself to see if he can handle the errands well!

If you finish this matter well, you will definitely be no worse than others when it comes to awarding rewards!

Thinking of this, he quickly nodded and said, "Yes, yes, I am willing!"

Having said this, Zheng Sen came to his senses, this is not in line with the etiquette of meeting the emperor, so he quickly knelt down and said: "Craftsman...the humble minister...the general will be willing!"

Seeing this scene, Emperor Chongzhen smiled happily.

Perhaps it was Emperor Chongzhen who had always been kind and pleasant, which made Zheng Sen feel kind, and felt that he was a little incoherent, so he also smirked.

Emperor Chongzhen once again motioned to Zheng Senping, and then said to him with a smile: "Your matter is very important this time. I can tell you that there will be a big war in the north soon. Whether you can stabilize the situation depends on your ability." It is impossible to purchase supplies, grain and grass from the south and send them to the capital in time. Do you understand?"

"Understood, understood!" Zheng Sen nodded again and again after getting up.

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen confessed: "Although you are young, you were named by Emperor Taizu after all. Therefore, I believe you can do well. I hope that through this matter, you can prove your talent to everyone, regardless of What means can be used to complete the task I entrusted to you, and then I will use you again in the future, and others will have nothing to say!"

"Definitely, definitely!" Zheng Sen seemed to be a respondent, and he would only reply simply.

When Emperor Chongzhen saw him, he looked up at the sky, and said with a smile: "It's getting late today, so I won't repeat myself. Someone will tell you the specific details later. I grant you the right to keep a secret report. If you have any questions, you can report them directly to me!"

For Zheng Sen, the power of secret rehearsal is a legendary power, and even many officials in the frontier may not have it.I didn't expect him to have it, so I nodded again and again.

Excited, he didn't know how he got to the station.

"My lord, what did the emperor say? My lord, my lord..."

The steward called for many times before calling Zheng Sen back to his senses.But to be precise, he was also giggling when he regained his senses, and didn't answer the manager's question.

Looking at him like this, the steward knew that something was definitely going on.Although he was very curious, he followed his temper and waited for his young master to recover.

After a while, Zheng Sen finally recovered a little bit of normalcy, and then said to the steward: "Quickly, tell the family about me, let my father, my mother, and those uncles see that I am not a playboy!"

When the steward heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "My lord, you haven't said anything about the palace yet!"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Sen asked in surprise, "Didn't I say that? Well, listen..."

After speaking, he relayed all the words that Emperor Chongzhen had said to him, and the steward was dumbfounded.

After regaining his senses, he immediately suggested: "My lord, you should write a letter yourself to announce the good news to your family!"

After a pause, he thought for a while and added: "The errand you want to do must be done beautifully and make the emperor happy. It is best to let the master send someone over, and it is best to use some necessary connections. .”

On the Jiangnan side, there are many people who go to sea.And those who want to go to sea must not bypass the Zheng family.In this way, the Zheng family will definitely get twice the result with half the effort if they let them do things.

"No, I can do it myself!" Zheng Sen refused directly when he heard it, "I'll let you all see if you underestimated me before!"

"..." After hearing this, the steward couldn't help being speechless.

After thinking for a while, he still reminded: "My lord, what if things go wrong? Wouldn't that be a disappointment to the grace! Also, you should also know what it's like in the officialdom today. The more than 2000 million taels I don't know how many people are watching, although I don't know the specific regulations, but with such a big piece of fat, do you think you can do it with your age and experience? I think even the master should be trembling."

Hearing this, Zheng Sen fell silent.

Although he was excited and wanted to flex his muscles.However, more than 2000 million taels, the amount of money absolutely shocked him.

By the way, the emperor also explained that no matter what method he uses, he must get things done.

That is to say, even if I rely on the help of my family, as long as I can get things done, it is my ability!
Thinking of this, Zheng Sen finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll talk about this in the letter."

Seeing that the young master listened to advice on this important matter, the manager was also very happy, so he quickly said: "The villain will go and arrange manpower, and when the young master has written the letter, he will send it back to Fujian as soon as possible!"

By the early morning of the next day, the family letter was sent out immediately.Zheng Sen, on the other hand, reported to the Jinyiwei yamen, and was warmly received by Li Ruolian, the commander of the Jinyiwei.

The Jinyiwei under Zheng Sen were all selected by Li Ruolian himself.Not for the sake of the Zheng family, in fact, Li Ruolian doesn't even know the specific situation of the Zheng family.Because Jinyiwei is basically active in the capital, and rarely expands to all parts of the country.

Of course, this will not be the case in the future.Since he took office, it has been slowly changing, but it still takes time.

The reason why Zheng Sen was treated with such a high standard was because of Emperor Chongzhen's confession.For the more than 2000 million taels of silver, no matter how important it is, it cannot be overemphasized.

On the next day, Emperor Chongzhen finally discussed the specific regulations.

The Ministry of Household Affairs, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Xichang, and Jinyiwei sent people, together with the Dongchang already in Yangzhou, to be responsible for purchasing materials and sending them to the capital.

Among them, the representative of Jinyiwei is Zheng Sen, the general banner.Although he had the lowest rank, Emperor Chongzhen let him take charge of the matter regardless of other people's objections.

Before leaving, Emperor Chongzhen summoned Zheng Sen again alone, and explained to him: "In the past few days, I have received many memorials from Jiangnan, all of which are impeaching Dongchang Wang Dehua for his misdeeds. Therefore, you must go there as soon as possible. Yangzhou, spend the money as soon as possible, the deal is done, and there will be fewer memorials like this!"
