Donggong Ce [Rebirth]

When major events happen in central Beijing and southeast, Yandi can always hear some news.

Not to mention Fengzhang who holds the Tiangang Guard.

Xie Gui lost a few laps these days, but fortunately, Feng Zhang forced him to drink medicine, and his condition began to improve gradually.

As a result, as soon as June entered, Yandi became hot again.It was sunny and rainy for a few days, Xie Gui couldn't bear it, and fell ill again.Fortunately, I am not seriously ill, just take a little rest.

Documents from Tiangangwei and Tianyi Society flew in like snowflakes, and by the time he put down his pen, it was already time for dinner.

He sat in a daze for a while, only to realize that at some point, there was a bowl of porridge and a few dishes of side dishes on the table.

Xie Gui squinted his eyes and looked at Feng Zhang who was sitting opposite.

Feng Zhang also put down his pen and looked at him.

After he found out that Xie Gui didn't like to drink medicine, Feng Zhang didn't stop doing it. He added a desk to Xie Gui, and dealt with paperwork with Xie Gui every day, and he would not leave until he finished drinking the medicine.

"hungry?"

Xie Gui looked away, didn't bother to pay attention to him, and continued to work hard.

There are more documents on his desk than Feng Zhang's.Feng Zhang never asked more questions, and maintained a strange tacit understanding.

Xie Gui didn't have time to rest at all.

It was a coincidence that the matter between the Seventh Prince and Yingren was revealed.

The Ying people who had not moved for hundreds of years suddenly invaded, and there were many people in the court who were suspicious.

But when Wanghai County's defenders were fighting with Yingren, a school lieutenant was attacked by Yingren's back arrow.The doctor pulled out the arrow, and on the arrow was the emblem of Shun's army.

The captain thought he was being attacked by his own people, so he investigated thoroughly in a rage, but found that the matter was not simple, so he panicked and reported it to his immediate superior.

After reporting it layer by layer, there will always be people who are suspicious, someone will always notice, and someone will always be afraid.

The school lieutenant later died in battle, and it can be said that there is no proof of his death.But the military newspaper was actually presented to the emperor.

Feng Shen died unjustly.

Xie Gui has been with Feng Yuan, and knows that this matter has his handiwork.Feng Shen was indeed reselling salt and iron to the Ying people, but he was not stupid enough to sell the arrowheads used by Daysun's defenders.

In a fit of rage, the emperor replaced all the officials in the three southeast counties, and the southeast was in need of employment.

Wei Chu was born in the southeast, with the influence of Tianyi Society, his life is safe, but when it comes to human relationships, Xie Gui needs to pass on letters and give him advice.

Xie Gui asked him to train poor youngsters, all of whom were preparing to enter the three counties' government offices.

In addition, Xie Gui also planned to let Feng Yuan take the blame and make a fortune.

There are good horses and ore iron in Yandi.The county yamen was subdued by King Yan, and the people who took care of the iron ore were timid. They had already found an opportunity to hand over the right to build it back.

But Tiangangwei reported that the ore and iron in Yandi can be used as a farm tool, but it can't be used for other things, and it is easy to be damaged.

This is not too difficult for Xie Gui.If the ore and iron in Yandi can't be used, then the three counties in the southeast will be used.Anyway, Feng Yuan will reach out to the southeast in the past two years, so let him take the blame.

The Tianyi Society has already been involved, so there is no reason to withdraw.

Xie Gui ordered Wei Chu to send people into the county government office, and at the same time directly issued orders to the members of the Tianyi Club to secretly intercept high-quality ore and iron, and open workshops for construction.

With the imperial decree, the officialdom in the entire southeast was completely rebuilt.

However, the imperial decree is one thing, and what the people below do is another.The emperor worshiped the heavens and ancestors every year, praying for good weather, and he never saw that the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were as sincere as him.

Young people from poor families come from low backgrounds, and they can only do the most common jobs in the county government office, between scholars and civilians.Knowing the ways of the world, he can enjoy himself among the people below, and can cut off the sight of the county government officials.

This is the purpose of Xie Gui.They are Xie Gui's hands, dripping water through rocks, accumulating little by little, bringing in the ore and iron from the southeast little by little, and embezzling them for their own use.

Wei Chu selected three to 400 people.According to Xie Gui's instructions, he collected the relatives and family circumstances of each young man, no matter how big or small, into a book one by one, and sent it to Xie Gui.The list unfolded and was dragged from the table to Xie Gui's feet.

According to Wei Chu's records, Xie Gui sketched out the names one by one and assigned them a suitable position, when Feng Zhang suddenly heard Feng Zhang say: "Those who are too smart can't be used."

Xie Gui was startled, and immediately realized.

Some smart teenagers, after being polished by the county government, tend to pretend to be smart and leak information.

He waited for Feng Zhang's next sentence.Unexpectedly, Feng Zhang just said something so nonchalant, then picked up the tea bowl, and went to read his idle books.

Xie Gui: "..."

He ticked two more names, was startled again, and looked at Feng Zhang.

He knows everything.

The words finally came out: "Your Highness, what do you think of this matter?"

Xie Gui didn't explain clearly, but Feng Zhang was very clear: "You are very courageous, you dare to dig something from the hands of the father. However," he paused, "this king also wants to do the same."

Xie Gui was slightly surprised, but he heard Feng Zhang say leisurely: "I was comfortable when I was young, no matter how nonsense I am, my father will have to recognize me."

Xie Gui didn't know much about his childhood.Feng Zhang told him one by one, Xie Gui was dumbfounded.

What sneaked into Chaolu Palace and set it on fire to present a memorial to ask for another crown prince, almost burning the entire Chaolu Palace to ashes.

He also fought with other princes, and beat Feng Yuan until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, just because Feng Yuan spoke disrespectfully to the former empress.

Fengzhang misses the days of mischief when he was a child: "My father sent me a bodyguard back then, to protect my safety on the surface, but in fact teach me martial arts. Every day when my father didn't wake up, I was taken out to practice martial arts .I didn’t beat the third child to death on the spot, so I’m still sane.”

Since he was a child, Xie Gui only devoted himself to studying and became an official in the court.He has only heard of such extraordinary things, but never personally performed them.

Thinking of Feng Yuan's embarrassment after being beaten to the ground, he couldn't help but smile.

Feng Zhang casually flipped through two more pages, threw the book back on the table, and got up.

"As far as the southeast is concerned, you can do as you like. If there is anything you can't handle, you can ask Tiangangwei to tell Mr. Han. As for the capital, I have this king watching over it, and there will be no big waves. Let the third child have fun first."

He walked out, and suddenly turned around and told Xie Gui: "Remember to drink the medicine."

Xie Gui was still in a daze just now, he stroked his forehead upon hearing this.

-

The matter of beating Ying people is always difficult and simple.

The Yingren came back aggressively, but they knew it was only temporary, after all, the supplies and reinforcements were far away.Therefore, after going ashore, they burned, killed and looted, and wherever they went, there were mourners everywhere.

Fortunately, however, only Haiphong collapsed.The court responded in time, Feng Yuan marched with elite soldiers, directly killed the three counties in the southeast, and blocked the Ying people back within the three counties.

At the end of June and the beginning of July, the main force of the Ying people had been wiped out, leaving only some rogues.

Under Feng Yuan's supervision, the coastal defenses of the three counties in the southeast were re-established, and manpower and materials were redeployed.

As for how many of them were placed in it, it is not known.

The skilled craftsmen of the three counties also fled during the war, and there were not many left.Feng Yuan learned that the master of Tianyi Society happened to be in the southeast, so he personally came to apologize and asked him to come out of the mountain.

Under the call of Tianyi Society, craftsmen gradually returned.Feng Yuan was grateful, so he prepared generous gifts for Tianyi Society, and personally ordered the craftsmen of Tianyi Society to enter the county government.

Ping Wang Fengyuan deeply understands righteousness and is able to reform himself, which was praised by the whole court.

Wei Chu and Xie Gui have been staying together for a long time, and they are also vengeful, remembering how he angered the craftsmen of Tianyi Society, they became very angry.

Just let Feng Yuan go like this?What are you kidding?Where does he put the face of the Palace Master of Tianyi Society?

Wei Chu's mind, which was dull in the world, finally opened up for a while.

He strictly followed Xie Gui's instructions, on the surface he half pushed and half agreed, but in fact he unceremoniously placed the poor boy into the county government office.

Feng Yuan was so focused on taking over the business left by the Seventh Prince, that he didn't even notice that right under his nose, Tianyi Club kept intercepting high-quality ore and iron, and started a workshop secretly.

A small part of the fine iron weapons obtained was kept and transported to Yandi by water; most of them were sold into silver coins, which flowed into the name of King Yan continuously.

As for the actual shortfalls of the three counties in the southeast, they were all carried by Feng Yuan.
