Chapter 204: The Evil Forces in Liaodong
The name Zhongxian is really good, both loyal and virtuous.
It must be admitted that the school boy is quite talented.
Of course, the names of Liangchen and Liangqing are also good, Master Wu is worthy of the two chickens and a pound of pork.
Eunuch Wei told the second uncle the importance of changing his name. The second uncle could understand it, but he had used the name Li Jinzhong for more than 20 years and suddenly changed his name back to his original surname. He was also called Zhongxian, a noble name. It was inevitable that he would not adapt to it for a while.
"Good minister, who were the people just now?"
The second uncle is not a fool. He knows that the old and old father-in-law who were extremely enthusiastic about him and sincerely invited him to work must not be for the sake of his face, but for his nephew who became the chief magistrate of Jiangnan.
"Dad said in his early years that when my grandfather was alive, he often said that there were three bowls of noodles in life, one was human face, two was affection, and three was scenes." Eunuch Wei told the story of these three bowls of noodles to his second uncle. The face of a carefree person comes from love, and the scene of having face comes naturally.
The second uncle heard a lot of teachings, but the old man recalled that his father, who was ignorant of his big words, seemed to have never given them this truth back then.
"You don't have to pay attention to these things, your nephew will go and repay the favor."
Although the units were rejected, Eunuch Wei still had to ask his second uncle what attitude he had towards returning to the East Palace. If he was unwilling to go, his nephew certainly had ten thousand ideas, and he had to respect the old man's ideas and bet him!
But he was thinking too much, and his second uncle himself suggested that he wanted to go back to the East Palace.
"Empress Li is very nice to me, and the school brother treats me well, and it is not very hard to cook the stove. I am used to being with Lao Han, so I have to transfer somewhere else, which is a little uncomfortable." Uncle Second said that Empress Li treats him well, and the most important thing is that he really can't bear to leave the school brother.
"Then go back to the East Palace." Eunuch Wei nodded.
"Maybe go back?"
The second uncle hesitated and expressed his true thoughts, that was, he was worried that the East Palace would not accept him again.
"Last time when Lao Han came to see me, he said that I was very angry about this, and Eunuch Wang blamed me very much, so I was afraid that I would not be able to go back." Uncle Second looked worried.
"Uncle, don't think too much, I'll talk to you on my side."
Eunuch Wei adjusted his standing posture and asked the savage to shoot an arrow in Taiwan. Although the injury was not serious, it had healed after Liu Xiuying's treatment. However, in order to arrive in the capital earlier, he rushed to the road for more than half a month, which caused Scar to not recover completely.
When I was doing business last night, the scar on my butt became very itchy, so my father-in-law asked Shouning to scratch it for him, but the girl was interested.
While he was sleeping, he secretly tied his scar, which resulted in the old scar that my father-in-law was about to take off and turned into a new scar. He was so angry.
My nephew said this, but the second uncle was still worried. He said, "I have committed such a big deal, I am afraid I can't listen to you."
"Don't worry, I will listen to me."
Eunuch Wei smiled and comforted the second uncle not to think too much. This matter was bound to him. The joke is that if Zhu Changluo did not accept his second uncle, Eunuch Wei would immediately bring someone to collect the debt. Let's see if the prince is shameless.
Zhu Changluo must not have any objection to spend more than 100,000 taels of money to buy a monthly salary of one and a half taels.
Seeing that my nephew was so sure, I thought that the prisoners would give my nephew face so much. The concubine and the princess's mansion also valued her nephew. The second uncle thought that there should be no problem, so he felt at ease.
He is really worried about losing his job.
Tian Ergeng came over and said that the procedures for the second uncle's release from prison had been completed. Eunuch Wei took it and looked at it, and found that the name had been changed to Wei Zhongxian.
"You guys pack up these things for Eunuch Wei." Tian Ergeng ordered the prison guards to clean up the gift box with half of the room left, and prepare to let the second uncle take it away.
Eunuch Wei smiled and said that these things were divided by the brothers in the prison, and that they should regard them as the New Year gifts they had given to their brothers. Tian Ergeng was not a pretentious person, so he thanked the prisoners with a smile.
According to the rules of the court, all yamen will be sealed tomorrow afternoon, and the New Year holiday will be 15 days. So in the past few days, the staff in each yamen, including the Zhaozhu, actually have no intention of going to work, and are busy preparing New Year's goods.
Not to mention, it was a pity that the guards of the Imperial Prison left, and they missed them too.
When Liu Qiao was not here, Eunuch Wei ignored the procedure of greeting the Northern Governor. After making an appointment with Tian Ergeng for a New Year visit, he took his second uncle out of the imperial prison.
The second uncle walked out of the gate in a relaxed mood. Seeing dozens of strong men outside, he was stunned. Eunuch Wei hurriedly told him that these people were his subordinates and elite officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty Imperial Army.
The second uncle kept nodding. My nephew was really promising. He was so good at doing this scene, much better than his uncle. He immediately told his nephew to be a job for the emperor and to be proud of the old Wei family. He also said that he didn't know what the dog thief Yang Lian was thinking about harming the good ministers.
"You don't care about Yang Lian's uncle, let's talk about it after the New Year."
After looking at the sky, Eunuch Wei saw that it was still early, he wanted to take his second uncle to have a meal. The uncle and nephew made a pot of wine, which was a reunion after a long separation.
The second uncle was speechless and was about to get on the carriage that his nephew prepared for him, but a few riders ran over.
The visitor was Li Yongzhen from the East Factory. He had just come from the South Lobby and brought a letter, but it was not from the South Lobby, but from Zhang Guoji outside the Pass.
Zhang Guoji is the future father-in-law of the school brother. When Eunuch Wei met this person at Yang Hao outside the pass, he knew that he and Jiang Fangyin wanted to do fur and ginseng business outside the pass, so he joined the company and the three of them jointly set up a store "Wei Fuji".
At first, because of Dong Ge and Yang Hao, Wei Fuji had the Yehe business route. Later, Yang Hao got off the stage, and Yehe also cut off Wei Fuji's supply due to Jianzhou suppression, so Wei Fuji's business was much worse.
After Jiang Fangyin left Liaodong and joined Eunuch Wei, the store's business became even worse, but Zhang Guoji still supported it alone because all his wealth was bet outside the pass, and the loss of closing the store was too great.
Because Eunuch Wei was busy in the south, he didn't take much care of Zhang Guoji. He only asked Li Yongzhen and Chen Mo to help Zhang Guoji build a good relationship in the capital, saving Zhang Guoji unnecessary trouble.
Speaking of which, my father-in-law and Zhang Guoji had not met for more than three years, so I was quite surprised to hear Li Yongzhen say that Zhang Guoji had a letter.
After reading the letter, my face changed slightly.
"What?" Li Yongzhen didn't know the content of the letter. Seeing that there was something strange about Eunuch Wei's face, he couldn't help but worry.
"It's nothing, I just want to fight against evil."
The father-in-law said something inexplicable and handed the letter to Li Yongzhen.
The letter was sent by Zhang Guoji, but the news in the letter was handed over by Dong Ge of Yehe's tribe, about the black-faced old man Nurhaci.
Six months ago, Nurhaci proclaimed himself "the lord of the female direct country's Jianzhou Wei and the governor of the barbarians", and was then called "the king of Jianzhou and other places". Three months ago, Khalkha Mongolia gave Nurhaci the title of "Kundulun Khan".
These are actually nothing. The Governor of Ji Liao and the Governor of Liaodong are both aware of this, but they both reported to the court that Nurhaci "followed the order", so what is the master and what is the king, and what is the Khan, is just a joke in the eyes of these governors and governors.
However, Dongge told Eunuch Wei very surely that Nurhaci was going to rebel against the Ming Dynasty because he was planning to establish the country on New Year's Day, with the country being called "Da Jin" and the year being called Tianming, and he claimed to be "the wise khan of the nations."
