"Your Majesty, Gubei's mouth is very jealous, and he is not afraid of hardships and dangers. He has made great achievements. Just now, Feng Xinqun did not know the key points, but he speculated that Your Majesty's punishment is also a matter of right. However, Feng Rixian's words also have some truths. Wang Tong has thousands of elite soldiers and a place for health and wealth in Tianjin, but he has not married yet. This is really strange. Zhang Siwei's slow speech, but the focus of his words is that he has not married yet. The people in the cabinet looked at each other. Shen Shixing took a step back and bowed his head without saying a word. Since the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet and Minister of Rites, Shen Shixing has spoken little and is extremely low-key. It is normal for Shen Shixing to express his opinion in this matter, and everyone does not care about it.

"There are many rumors in the capital. Wang Tong is engaged in military affairs every day, and is extremely frugal in private. He is a young man with high status and power, but he does this. "Extraordinary people often have extraordinary ambitions. Tianjin Wei is now rich and wealthy, and it is also an important place in the capital. Your Majesty," said Zhang Siwei, a Grand Secretary of the Cabinet and Minister of War. However, everyone understood the meaning of the words. Everyone did not respond and looked at Emperor Wanli.

"My dear ministers, it's too difficult for Wang Tong to do things. If he enjoys it, he will definitely not be able to escape the name of being arrogant and extravagant. But how can he have extraordinary ambitions when doing things for me diligently and thrifty?" Emperor Wanli said in a muffled voice, and Zhang Siwei bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I just remembered that Wang Tong is now in an important position and commands the troops, and the details should be paid attention to!" "I know Zhang Aiqing's sincerity for the country. I have to worry about this matter. Needless to say, the ministers in the court were unwilling to talk about Wang Tong with Emperor Wanli after repeated incidents, not to mention that Zhang Siwei, the Minister of War, talked about it completely casually.

Everyone just skipped this topic.

"Your Majesty, the one-whip method has been tried. The Ministry of Revenue has already established a method. I would like to ask Your Majesty to make a decision today." After the court dispersed, the ministers in the hall dispersed. Emperor Wanli patted his forehead with his hand and sighed tiredly. Just now, the departments discussed the implementation of the one-whip method, and what they said was extremely boring.

How many acres of land are there, how much Dingkou is there, how much money can be paid, how much silver can be paid, and the collection is integrated. Who is the focus of each small province and holds accountable? It is expected that the silver can be collected.

After the scattered court rules, the ministers of the foreign court left on a fixed route, and the Silijian also returned to the duty station to handle the matter. The only eunuch who was qualified to stay here was the accompanying eunuch.

There is this at present.

The qualified eunuch Zhang Cheng, the eunuch who was in charge of the Sili Supervisor, and Feng Bao, the eunuch who was free to stay or stay. Seeing the little eunuchs serving him also left the hall.

Feng Bao smiled and said, "Ma Ziqiang is so brave today that he actually proposed to abolish border troops and retired in March. He really didn't care about Jizhen, Xuanfu, and the border areas near the grasslands in the north of Zhili. The military expenditure is almost four million taels a year. With the great victory outside Gubeikou, Altan Khan and Korchin tribes suffered heavy damage, and the pressure on border towns has also been greatly reduced. You can consider abolishing troops and saving military expenses.

Usually, this topic can be said to be a forbidden area, six cabinet ministries, court and local government officials, who have to benefit from this military expenditure. Whoever says that the layoffs will cut off everyone's financial path and become the target of public criticism. Whoever is willing to do such a thing can only be raised by officials like Ma Ziqiang, who is about to retire and return home, and in the context of a great victory in the frontier.

However, after Ma Ziqiang said a few words, everyone did not respond, so it was left alone.

Feng Bao spoke, Zhang Cheng nodded with a smile, and Emperor Wanli still had a gloomy face. Feng Bao folded up several copies and said again: "Don't be angry. These civil servants are afraid of the military generals' great achievements. They always say things that are not good, otherwise they will not show their ability. The Queen Mother knows Wang Tong's merits. You don't have to take the little noise from the censors below to take a moment of rest. After I went to the room to finish these few words, Feng Bao took the note and changed his eyes with Zhang Cheng before going out. When Feng Bao went out, there were no outsiders in the hall except for the little eunuchs who served far away. Zhang Cheng stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to rest again, or go back to the palace in a sedan chair?"

Wanli stood up silently, stretched out his hands and feet, and said, "I have been sore these days. I will not be in a sedan chair today, so I will walk to Concubine Zheng."

Zheng Shupin was promoted to imperial concubine and still debated fiercely outside the palace, but Emperor Wanli ignored what was said outside, and the palace had already started to follow the imperial concubine's rules.

The weather is still quite cold. The emperor wants to get rid of the poison and there are a lot of things to buy. He is busy here. Emperor Wanli stood by the bronze furnace next to the imperial seat and said in a deep voice: "Parent Zhang, I will pass on my will. Wang Tong won great achievements. I will let the censors be quiet. I will not be happy. I will do so many depressing things. It is inexplicable!" Zhang Cheng, who was walking over with a cloak, bowed and agreed, and secretly entrusted Wang Tong to go out of the frontier as a bait to lure the rebels into the bait. He fought hard and suffered casualties but did not have any military rewards. Emperor Wanli

The emperor felt a little guilty, but the censors in the capital suddenly began to attack Xu Wangtong in February. Zhang Cheng served Emperor Wanli with a big cloak and said with a smile: "Wansui Mou, the censors who spoke this time are much less than the few times, which means that they are not all confused by books!" Hearing this, Emperor Wanli sneered and said disdainfully: "It's just that he opened a shop in Tianjin. It's a bit of a slutty word. He also said that his own books are books of sages, and he has been entangled with these irrelevant things all day long. I really don't know where the books have gone."

After answering a few words, Emperor Wanli felt much better. While tidying up the velvet, Zhang Cheng paused and said, "Yei Sheng, what Zhang Siwei of the Ministry of War makes sense.

Wang Tong is so old, but he has always been so miserable. His father has been almost five years, and even if he is filial, he will be married. Living like this always makes people feel strange. If there is such a censor, it will be troublesome!" Emperor Wanli did not respond, but just walked out on his own. Zhang Cheng hurriedly followed. Emperor Wanli took a few steps before whispering: "Wang Tong said that if he gets married at this time, he will be involved with whom he married, but now

If there is anybody here, if this is delayed by this involvement, Emperor Wanli stopped and continued to walk forward. Zhang Cheng felt a little regretful and hurriedly followed, but heard Emperor Wanli whisper: "Wang Tong is so loyal, but the couplet cannot repay anything, it's true." In February, the capital Qingliu's memorial on Wang Tong was silently over, and all the news reached Tianjin Wei. Yang Sichen, who had been uneasy, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Xu Guangguo also sent someone to send a list. This list was all low-ranking officials among the Censorate, Hanlin Academy, Imperial College and the six ministers. These people are so-called pure and simple figures. Among them, there are also precious and noble figures. The people on this list are silent.

This time, Xu Guang and the State Council did a lot of effort. Half of the people on the list had their names drawn circles. It was also noted that these people had many industries in Tianjin Wei and benefited a lot, while the rest were Xu Guangguo and they had contacts.

"It's really not expensive to have a liushizi. The Imperial College Priest has only received 130 taels of silver, and he actually stood by our side."

After seeing this order, Wang Tong said with a smile.

On February 12th, the Huwei Army recruited new recruits from various places to replenish the team. After the two regiments drew new Huodi soldiers, the battalions reorganized the organization.

The personnel were not a big problem. The soldiers and chariots all saw Huo Di's killing on the battlefield. They knew that being able to become Huo Di soldiers was equivalent to a single pattern. Everyone was enthusiastic, and it was much easier to choose the best. However, the fire sharp manufacturing in Jiangfang did not keep up, and it only took more than 200 poles to be built in a month.

It was not intentional delay. The hydraulic machinery in Jiangfang was insufficient. Now the river water is frozen, mainly by using animal power, and the efficiency is greatly reduced.

If you also need to ensure quality, you will naturally not be able to get faster.

However, the Huo Di soldier training began, and Wang Tong attached great importance to it and must come to watch it in person. He got up in the morning and speeded up the processing of all matters. He arranged for personal guards to prepare and rode a horse to the schoolyard to watch it, but he had not yet left.

But someone came to the door with a post.

When things collided, military affairs were of course the first priority. Everyone knew that no one in Tianjin Wei had such a great face to delay Wang Tong's work, but when asked about his intentions, he could only put people in.

"Mr. Qi held a banquet at Linhai Pavilion at noon?" Wang Tong was stunned when he saw the invitation. Unexpectedly, it was Qi Jiguang, the general of Ji Town, who invited him to invite him. This was really a bit sudden. Wang Tong returned directly on the battlefield outside Gubeikou. At this time, the victory was spread throughout the world. Everything was settled, and the two sides had no need to meet him. They came to invite him at this time, but they didn't know what the intention was. Wang Tong could not refuse such people, and he had to arrange for the Fire Lock Soldiers to practice as usual, and he was preparing to go to the banquet.

Wang Tong knew about Qi Jiguang's visit to Tianjin Wei. He originally thought he was just going to inspect military affairs in the military camp of Sun Zhibin, but he did not expect to come and invite him to the banquet.

Linhai Pavilion is not on the sea, but is located in the south of the bell tower in Tianjin Acropolis. It is a very secluded and elegant place. When Wang Tong arrived in front of the door, he was actually guarding the Tianjin Governor General Sun Zhibin. The specifications of this gatehouse were too high. When both parties greeted each other, Sun Zhibin smiled and said, "Please welcome the Grandmaster Wang to the second floor of the Grandmaster. "
