Come to Daming with military supplies

In Yangjiazhuang.

Xiao Feng has already rushed back and reported all the first words he said before and after the meeting with Jin Ying.

If Jin Ying was present at this moment, he would be very surprised.The company commander Xiao Feng who said he didn't take Zhongdanhou seriously, was so respectful and careful when he saw Yang Chendong.

"You did a good job, go down and have a good rest." Yang Chendong, who was very satisfied with Xiao Feng's performance, watched him leave with a smile.He knew that with this meeting, Zhu Qiyu would agree to himself even if he didn't agree. In this way, the Yang Family Bank has been recognized by the royal family, and its development and growth will be just around the corner.

Of course, with Yang Chendong's wisdom, it is impossible not to think about Zhu Qiyu's future settlement.Just wanting to kill himself is undoubtedly nothing more than a fool's dream, and let the other party be happy for a while, and when the Yang Family Bank really grows, it will be too late to regret it.

"Humang, send a message to Kaohsiung in Chixian City immediately, so that all the gold stored in his city and the gold looted at sea these days will be transported to the capital. It will be of great use to me." Yang Chendong gave the order after thinking.

The matter of the Yang family bank will soon become clear. In contrast, this is a profitable business.With money, there is a foundation for development, and with money, you can do many things you want to do.Right now, he was humming a ditty and walking towards the backyard, where there were four beautiful ladies who were all looking forward to his appearance.

Chapter 177 The Great General Yang Chendong

In the main hall of the imperial palace, all the officials came here to discuss matters early in the morning.

In the so-called discussion, there is still only one topic, and that is the question of who will lead the army to fight Oala.

In yesterday's court hall, Xu Youzhen, Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, recommended that the loyal marquis Yang Chendong lead the army to fight, Zhu Qiyu did not agree in the hall, but gave the ministers a day.By early this morning, this issue had become the first thing to be resolved.

Just last night, there was another battle report from the front line. Wu Qingbo Shi Heng, the admiral and commander-in-chief, retreated towards Datong with less than [-] defeated troops. In the land of no one, people usually pass Juyongguan and rush straight to the capital.

In other words, seven days at the slowest, and four days at the fastest, the enemy army will arrive before the capital. If the capital is still unprepared, then wait to be breached, and everyone is waiting to be captured or killed.

The situation is so severe that the leader must be decided.After Jin Ying announced the news she received last night in front of all the courtiers, there were people in the entire court hall who were frightened, restless, and even pale.

Civil officials use their mouths, while military officials use their swords.

In peacetime, all etiquette and law come first, and reason is the most important thing.Naturally, a situation of emphasizing literature and restraining martial arts will form.

However, once an emergency situation arises, reasoning will not make sense. To reason with the enemy is like telling the tiger in the mountains to switch to vegetarianism. How ridiculous it is.

Seeing that the war was inevitable, the civil official group naturally shut their mouths. On the contrary, they showed a look of fear and fear, talking freely about past events, quoting the past and discussing the present, completely like two people.

Who is not afraid of death?Under Lien Chan's losing streak, the Wala army has put a huge pressure on the heads of the officials, which can really be described as a change in color.

Under such circumstances, since there is a recommended candidate, everyone is of course full of praise.At that moment, Minister Yiming of the Ministry of War proposed that Yang Chendong, the loyal marquis, should lead the army. The new minister was a little scared, fearing that if there was no suitable candidate, Daizong would let him lead the army to fight. If that was the case, what would it be like to die What is the difference?

With the Ministry of War Shangshu taking the lead, the other courtiers followed suit, and at this moment it looked like a dead horse was being treated as a living horse doctor.Not only the ministers, but also the father and son Hu Wei and Hu Changning who held opposing opinions yesterday are among the ministers who support it at this moment.Not only did they support Yang Chendong to lead the army, but they also demanded that he be given great power and weight. They also said that if the military power cannot be unified, countless variables may appear on the battlefield.

Obviously, when the Hu family returned home yesterday, Yang Chendong's words moved the Hu family and his son, and they would have the change they have today.

The ministers almost overwhelmingly supported Yang Chendong, and Zhu Qiyu, who was seated on the dragon chair, knew that the general situation could not be changed, so the court ordered someone to pass the decree to Yang Chendong to go to the court to listen to the order.At this moment, the newly enthroned emperor had clearly made up his mind.

In Yangjiazhuang, Yang Chendong was wearing a black gauze hat, a tunic collar shirt, a python-shaped pattern printed on the patch on his chest, and a belt around his waist. He looked like a military third-rank official sitting in the main hall.

Hu Yan, Qiaoyin, Xueniangzi, Xiangniangzi, and Yang Duo were pointing at the side, and would cover their mouths with their hands and chuckle from time to time. Obviously, this was the first time they had met Yang Chendong, who looked so sanctimonious.

"Well, is there something wrong with that?" Seeing the curious and unpredictable eyes of the five girls, Yang Chendong finally couldn't help asking if something went wrong.

"No, it's pretty good. I used to see my grandfather and father dressed like this when they went to court, but I never thought that Liu Lang would have this day, so I was very curious." Hu Yan covered her mouth and chuckled while shaking her head , I wanted to pretend to be serious and comment, but no matter how I looked at it, there was a smile on my face, which I couldn't hide.

To say that there is really nothing wrong with Yang Chendong's attire, he can only be blamed for his young age, he dressed so formally when he was less than 20 years old, and gave the girls a feeling that he was too solemn to be ridiculous.

"Is there really no problem?" Yang Chendong asked in disbelief, scanning the girls one by one, obviously not believing what Hu Yan said just now.

"It's really no problem." Seeing Yang Chendong's disbelief, the seventh sister Yang Duo stood up, "It's just because you don't wear court clothes less, and everyone is not used to it."

"Yes, I'm not used to it either. Forget it, I won't wear it anymore. Come on, take it off for the young master." Yang Chendong also felt uncomfortable after wearing these, so he simply decided to throw them away.As he spoke, he really took off the courtier.

Qiaoyin stepped forward to help while having doubts, "Liulang, do you really want to take it off? Didn't you say that the emperor will send a decree to invite you into the palace in a while?"

"It's true to enter the palace, who stipulates that you must wear court clothes to enter the palace? It's so awkward, it's better not to wear it." Yang Chendong smiled and shook his head, but he was thinking in his heart that he had no idea of ​​being a minister of the Ming Dynasty. , why keep their rules.Having said that, if I own a large warehouse, I can’t even do this little bit of mastery, and I don’t have this little freedom, then it’s too pitiful.

Yang Chendong felt extremely comfortable after taking off his court clothes and putting on a green clothes again, he couldn't help laughing and said, "That's right, it's more important not to do anything yourself. You also remember, Unless it’s an important occasion, you can wear whatever you want in normal times, and wear whatever you want to be comfortable. Life is only a few decades, so don’t be too hard on yourself.”

As soon as he got back into a new Tsing Yi, the eunuch came outside the Yangjiazhuang, please enter the palace immediately, the emperor and all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty are waiting for him.

Humang had already brought the ready horse. Yang Chendong turned over swiftly and waved to the girls behind him in a very chic manner. Go to the capital.

Watching her husband leave, when she couldn't see her shadow, Hu Yan put on a big sister look, turned to Qiaoyin and the third daughter and said: "Liu Lang is gone, according to his order last night, we also have to go immediately." Take action. In this way, the second younger sister Qiaoyin will stay in Yangjiazhuang to preside over the overall situation, and the third younger lady Xue and the fourth younger lady Xiang will go to the capital, and we will buy any cheap houses and fields and register them truthfully."

"Listen to elder sister's orders." Qiaoyin, Shao Yuxue, and Dong Hanxiang quickly agreed.Yang Duo and his daughter were left behind, watching everyone get busy with envy.At this time, her thinking is also undergoing a change. In her eyes, women are no longer just women who know how to care for their husbands and children, and go deep into the boudoir. They can actually do many things.

On the court hall, the ministers have been standing here for a long time.Some courtiers who were more anxious looked out of the palace more than once, as if they were waiting for something.

While the ministers were looking forward to it, a eunuch's typical drake voice sounded, "The loyal and courageous prince will meet you at the palace."

"Here we come, we come." Hearing the shout, all the ministers straightened their skirts and stood in place.Even Zhu Qiyu, who was seated on the dragon chair, subconsciously arranged a dragon robe, looking out of the hall with piercing eyes.

In the anticipation of everyone, Yang Chendong in Tsing Yi came to the Golden Luan Hall with big strides.

The last time I came to the Golden Luan Hall, it was the second day after entering the capital, and I beat Wang Gou and beat the Dengwen Drum to enjoy the treatment.This time, compared to before, there was less tension and apprehension.

The imperial court has long stipulated that one must wear the corresponding official uniform to enter the palace, but at this time, Yang Chendong entered the imperial court in a green suit, but no one said anything. They acted as if they hadn't seen it.

"My minister Yang Chendong pays homage to the emperor, my emperor is ten thousand" Yang Chendong entered the hall, and when he came to a place more than ten steps away from the emperor's throne, he bowed and knelt down.

After Yang Chendong knelt down in front of him, Zhu Qiyu raised his hand and said, "Okay, let's get up and talk."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Even though he did not like the ceremony of kneeling down very much, there were some etiquettes that could not be abolished in front of all the officials and above the court.After agreeing, Yang Chendong stood up slowly. When he stood up, he was already standing there like a javelin.

Hu Changning, who stood among the officials, had practiced martial arts since he was a child, and had some kung fu in his hands.At this moment, when he saw Yang Chendong's performance, he couldn't help thinking that his son-in-law also seemed to be a practicing family son, and his strength should not be weak, but why didn't he find out before?

Yang Chendong stood on the spot, and Zhu Qiyu, who didn't know much about kung fu, naturally couldn't see Yang Chendong's reality, but just felt that Zhongdanhou was very energetic standing there.

"Loyal and courageous, this time I announced you to enter the palace to discuss matters. I think you know what's going on, right? Now that the Oirat army is threatening the capital, the ministers have recommended you to lead the army. I also believe in loyal and courageous men, but I don't know if you can Are you willing to do your duty for the country? Share your worries for the king?" Although Jin Ying had been sent to discuss with Yang Chendong privately before.But at this moment, the procedures that should be followed still have to be followed.

"I am willing to do my duty for the country, share the worries for the king, and do my best for the safety and prosperity of Ming Dynasty." Anyone can say beautiful words, and at this moment Yang Chendong also made a perfect confrontation between the monarch and his ministers.

"Okay!" Hearing that Yang Chendong agreed so happily, Zhu Qiyu was overjoyed, "The loyal and courageous marquis accepted the title and named him General Hussars. .”

Since it needs to be reused, and at this critical time, it is natural to be promoted to a higher level. As for the restraint of the whole city's soldiers and horses, it is naturally because the military situation is urgent and the matter is urgent. right.Zhu Qiyu is clear in his heart, this is a major event related to the battle of life and death, of course it cannot be sloppy.

Chapter 178

"I accept the decree, thank you." Yang Chendong knelt twice and bowed twice.

Just receiving the order without making any guarantees, Zhu Qiyu sighed in his heart, knowing that it is not enough to just give military power at this moment, and it is time to speak out the conditions agreed in advance.Otherwise, it is just as dangerous if you just work and don't work hard.

His eyes glanced at the group of officials first, and then fell on Yang Chendong, "This time, Wala invaded the border and approached the capital, making the capital dangerous and everyone in danger. I heard that the price of grain has skyrocketed for a while, and the value of gold and silver The fact that a large area has shrunk has caused panic among the people. Feeling this, I believe that this is not only the reason for the new defeat of Yingzong, but also has a lot to do with the looting of private merchants. Therefore, I decided to open a bank among the people. Loyal and courageous, I want to entrust you with great responsibility and ask you to stabilize the price of the capital in the shortest possible time, I wonder if it can be done?"

Let's talk about the situation in the capital first, and don't forget to tell the story of Yingzong's defeat. Then he mentioned the establishment of a private bank and asked Yang Chendong for his opinion.The occurrence of this scene made the ministers feel that they were not able to cope.

Only Yang Chendong looked indifferent, he had expected such a result a long time ago, this was originally a negotiated matter.As Zhu Qiyu thought, if he only gave himself military power and no other benefits, he might also defend the capital, but that's all.But if he gets enough benefits, he will fight this battle well.

Kneeling and worshiping three times, this time Yang Chendong finally showed a little gratitude on his face, "I am willing to build a bank and make due contributions to the economic development of Ming Dynasty and the stability of the country. At the same time, I want to change the name of the bank to Yang Family The bank will pay 200 million taels of silver to the national treasury every year for commercial tax, and please grant the emperor's permission."
