Lin Xiangdong looked at Jiang Guang and said, picking up the chopsticks, and smilingly said, "Shangshu Jiang should still use it. Do you want to eat some together?"

Jiang Guangyue's expression became more and more severe, and said, "When will Governor Li arrive? I want to bring him."

Li Hengbing has been appointed by the court and serves as the governor of Nanzhili.

Lin Xiangdong ate the dish and said, "Based on the schedule, it should be in Suzhou."

If Southern Zhili accounts for 60% of the Ming Dynasty, then Suzhou accounts for 60% of the Southern Zhili, which shows the importance of Suzhou.

Jiang Guangyue silently said, "The Duke of Wei still has many people in Nanjing, and the army is his. I am still identifying it. Don't move around in a short period of time."

Duke of Wei, Xu Wenjue, Duke of Wei guarded Nanjing for generations and took control of the military power of Nanjing with the Minister of War.

Lin Xiangdong took another sip of wine and said, "The court is undergoing a change in the military system. Li Zicheng from the northwest has been wiped out. The news I have received is that Cao Wen ordered General Cao to serve as General Nanzhili. You may not know Zhang Yitan. He served as Deputy General Yingtian. Five thousand people should have been in Suzhou. Shi Kefa's 10,000 people are in Anqing, which is enough to suppress all the changes in Nanzhili."

Jiang Guangyue listened and knew that this had been planned for a long time.

After thinking about it for a while, he said, "What else do you want me to do?"

This time it was Lin Xiangdong's turn to remain silent. After a moment, he smiled and said, "How dare I ask Shangshu Jiang? Everything is Governor Li, he has the final say."

Jiang Guangyue nodded, raised his hand, and turned around and left.

Lin Xiangdong touched his chin, and when Jiang Guangyue left, he said to himself: "It seems that we must find more reliable people. This Shangshu Jiang doesn't seem to be a fellow traveler..."

At the same time, the two people came out of the Zhou family's ticket, quietly avoided the crowd, and came to a hidden courtyard.

As soon as they entered the door, someone asked, “Did you get it?”

One of them took out a account book and said, "The ticket number has been prepared for a long time, and we got it as soon as we entered. These are the information of people who deposited large amounts of money in the Zhou ticket number in Nanzhili. Many of them may be under the name of others, and they have to be investigated."

"Go in first, and let's talk about it when the adults come back."

"yes."

On the other side, Nanjing Palace, the Sili Supervisor.

The eunuch of the Silijian, also known as the eunuch in charge, was bent and looked at the person in front of him with some restraint.

This is an old eunuch, who is from the same period as Wang An. Who is Wang An? That is the one who promoted Wei Zhongxian!

The old eunuch said lightly: "Do you know, what did Zheng Xibo send you here?"

Chen An hurriedly said, "I know. I have already walked around Nanjing and have recruited many talents, which are of great use."

The old eunuch held his hands in his arms, expressionless, and said, "Give me five days to find out which ones are opposed to the reform of the court, who are dissatisfied with the Zhengxibo, who are ill-intentioned... Do you understand what our family means?"

Chen An's scalp was numb and said hurriedly: "I understand. Don't worry, father-in-law, I guarantee that my father-in-law is satisfied, and that the monk Xibo is happy, and that he will never let down his grace for promoting me!"

The old eunuch nodded lightly and said, "I will stay in the palace this year. If you do it well, it will naturally have your benefits. If you don't do it well, you will know the consequences more than me."

Chen An's neck cold and said, "Yes, I know."

Under the bustling atmosphere of Nanzhili, no one knew that the Jinyiwei had been doing things quietly and was getting more and more prepared.

At this time, the capital was no less lively than in Nanzhili.

Zhou Zheng’s reforms and reforms have touched the interests of many people. Zhou Yanru’s silence was also exchanged for Zhou Zheng’s promise not to fight for power with him. Even a prime minister is difficult to remain silent, and others can imagine it.

The West Gate.

Zhang Heyi stood in front of Zhou Zheng with a solemn expression and said, "Sir, Wu Sangui and others bypassed Chengdu. It seems that they are going to Guizhou. Guizhou Governor Wang Sanshan does not have much military strength, and it is hard to say whether Guiyang can be defended. Moreover, we do not have many reinforcements to support, and Yunnan does not have many troops..."

The Ming Dynasty's garrison system had long collapsed, and the local garrisons were useless. Since Jiajing, all the battles were mainly ‘recruitment’, rather than ready-made troops.

Therefore, not to mention the most severely affected Guizhou, which is nine out of ten families, even Yunnan, cannot draw any troops to fight against rebel generals such as Wu Sangui, and must be selected from the 200,000 troops in the northwest.

Zhou Zheng nodded slightly and said to himself: "Wu Sangui's move is really good. From Guizhou to Yunnan, you can see Guangdong and Guangxi nearby. When you retreat, you can enter Annan, Myanmar. It's really a carp that enters the sea..."

Zhang Heyi sneered and said, "What kind of carp is he? They are all rebellious, and sooner or later they will be rectified!"

Zhou Zheng did not have these intentions and said, "I read Jiandou's official documents, and as he said, there will be one general in Shaanxi, Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan, and Huguang, with 20,000 troops each, just to prevent accidents, and completely end the unsolved situation in the northwest for more than ten years!"

Zhang Heyi listened and hesitated, saying, "Sir, if a 100,000 army is stationed in the northwest, we will not have many available. After all, there are still 50,000 people who will return to Liaodong."

Zhou Zheng has drawn too many troops from Liaodong. Liaodong is now very "empty". If it weren't for the big winter and Jianlu were extremely weak, Zhou Zheng might not have dared to do this!

There are 100,000 in the northwest and 50,000 in the Liaodong, and only 50,000 in the left, and there are still eight provinces, which is indeed a bit difficult.

Zhou Zhengdao: "I have thought about it a long time ago and continue to recruit soldiers."

Zhang Heyi said: "Sir, our financial resources are already tight. If we want to continue recruiting, we may be under a lot of pressure."

There were even 20 million taels of silver a year when the mountains and rivers were broken and the reforms continued to make money and food!

Zhou Zheng also had a headache and said, "This time, I should be able to copy a lot, fill some, which is enough for next year's expenses. The next year, I will borrow money, use the national treasury as a guarantee, issue bonds to the world, and borrow eight million a year, which is almost the same."

Zhang Heyi's mouth moved and she didn't say anything.

Now the Ming Dynasty treasury is less than 4 million yuan per year, and borrows eight million yuan per year to eat the food for the first time. Sooner or later, something big will happen!

After Zhou Zheng finished speaking this, he suddenly said, "What do you say in the palace?"

Yao Tongshun, who was next to him, replied, "Sir, the emperor is a little resistant, he has no objection, nor has he agreed."

If you don't agree, that's objection.

Zhou Zheng asked Zhu Cilang to add reform content to the sacrificial text in the ancestral temple where the sacrifice was worshipped.

Zhou Zheng picked up the teacup and said, "Go to the Ministry of War and send Cao Huachun into the palace."

Zhang Heyi opened his eyes, then shook his head and sighed: "If Cao Huachun was sent to the palace, our emperor would not be able to sleep well tonight..."

...

Zhang Heyi is the Minister of War, and his actual power is greater than that of the Minister of Shang Dynasty Li Banghua. He insisted on mentioning others, but no one could stop him.
