Liangchen nodded, he understood the implicit meaning of Li Yongzhen's words.

In the eyes of the emperor, the eunuchs recruit soldiers privately and civil servants privately, the nature of the eunuchs is different.

The emperor can tolerate the former, but he will never tolerate the latter.

After all, one is a slave and the other is a foreign minister. The two cannot be compared with each other.

Moreover, the fundamental reason for Gao Huai's private entrusted soldiers is to maintain mining and collect taxes, so that they can provide a steady stream of money to be imported into Da Nei. Therefore, Liangchen believed that this matter should have been supported by Wanli. Otherwise, Gao Huai would not be able to act so unscrupulously, and it would be even more impossible for General Ma Lin to be dismissed from office because of a memorial from Li Chengliang.

If he talks a thousand words and ten thousand, he will support whoever can get money for Wanli. On the contrary, he will continue to "neglect the government".

However, Gao Huai's private entrusting soldier gave Liang Chen an inspiration. If he could start a mine one day, he would be able to train a private soldier in the name of protecting the mine and collecting taxes.

Good ministers urgently need this matter of training. Yu Gong, Sarhu, ten years later, and if Yi Yi still dies so unlucky, then the old Wei family must have a vote with Chongzhen.

For the sake of the second uncle, the eldest brother and his younger brother will not be killed by Chongzhen, so the good minister must have an army that is only followed by his horse.

The power comes from the barrel of a gun, and it is the truth of any dynasty or generation.

In order to confirm the possibility of private placement of soldiers, Liangchen wanted to ask Li Yongzhen if the mining tax authorities in various places could recruit soldiers in private.

At this time, a man walked out of the station and stopped them in a very sharp voice, "Stop, who are you?" His voice sounded too sharp.

The hundred households who led Liangchen and the others to come immediately stepped forward and whispered to the man. After hearing this, the latter looked at Liangchen and Wang Tiqian beside him in surprise.

This man is also a eunuch named Kong Zhen. He is one of the two internal magistrates who came to Liaodong with Gao Huai, and the other is Zhang Hu.

Both of them were Gao Huai’s confidants. Before they followed Gao Huai, they were all unknown little firemen in the palace. They are now big figures in Liaodong.

Kong Zhen was in charge of the business of the tax yamen and Fuyang store, while Zhang Hu was in charge of the tax soldiers and several mines. Not only did they make a lot of money, they also held duties in the inner court.

This is also a good fate. The two of them hugged Gao Huai's thighs, which is what they are today. Otherwise, I'm afraid they are still a little fireman in the palace.

When he looked at the good minister, Kong Zhen was not doing anything. When his eyes fell on Wang Tiqian, he was shocked and almost ran over.

"Eunuch Wang, when did you come out?" Kong Zhen asked in surprise.

Kong Zhen recognized Wang Tiqian because Wang Tiqian was very famous in the palace in the early years. After all, he was able to read the Four Books and Five Classics as well as he was, and he was considered a eunuch who read the entire book extensively. There were not many in the palace.

When Wang Tiqian was in the Military Staff Bureau, Kong Zhen was a fireman in the adjacent needlework bureau. When the two met, Wang Tiqian had already followed him. Later, he was transferred to Kunning Palace to be the eunuch of the Empress. At that time, many small firemen, including Kong Zhen, were envious.

But unexpectedly, Wang Tiqian later got imprisoned because he offended the Empress. Kong Zhen himself also took Gao Huai's way and was taken to Liaodong to start a mine. In short, the two had not met for ten years.

"But the emperor asked you to come?"

Kong Zhen thought that Wang Tigan was the envoy who came to the imperial order, so he only regarded Wei Liangchen as the one who followed Wang Tigan. After all, Wei Liangchen looked too young. The Shanhaiguan Army had become such a big deal, so the emperor could not send such a stingy boy to come here.

Wang Tigan shook his head and told Kong Zhen that the envoy this time was not him, but the boy standing beside him.

"Who are you?"

Kong Zhen was very surprised. Although he rarely returned to Beijing after he came to Liaodong with Eunuch Gao, it did not mean that he did not know the popular people in the inner court. However, after searching in his mind for a long time, he never remembered that there was such a young man around the emperor.

Seeing this, Wang Tigan whispered to Kong Zhen that Wei Liangchen was not a member of the inner court, but he couldn't tell who he was. He just said a few words in a vague way, but he vaguely pointed to the concubine's side.

Kong Zhen immediately realized when he heard this. Seeing Liangchen's eyes were completely different from those before, and his attitude was very respectful.

Liangchen was anxious to see Gao Huai, and then rushed to Shanhaiguan, without intending to waste time in Yongping, so he asked Kong Zhen: "Eunuch Gao is inside?"

"Here." Kong Zhen nodded.

Liangchen waved his hand and said, "Take me to meet Eunuch Gao."

"Please follow me."

Kong Zhen did not dare to neglect Wei Liangchen. Although he didn't know what the other party was, since he was sent by the emperor and had something to do with the imperial concubine, he was sure to be cautious.

This time, there was a mutiny in Shanhaiguan. After fleeing to Yongping, Kong Zhen was actually worried that Gao Huai would be punished by the emperor for this.

He and Gao Huai are grasshoppers on the same rope. If Gao Huai falls, his good life will come to an end. By then, it is the best end to be able to save your life. It is probably more difficult to save the money you have saved over the years than climbing to the sky.

On this day, Kong Zhen was really worried. He advised Gao Huai not to stay in Yongping and should go to Beijing to meet the emperor immediately, so that he could still save him. However, Gao Huai did not dare to go to Beijing and hid in Yongping Post and was in panic all day long.

Gao Huai was like this, Kong Zhen and others were even more frightened. Now that someone has come to the palace, the incident can be said to be beyond the control of Gao Huai.

Therefore, Kong Zhen did not dare to offend Wei Liangchen, who was very young, and even wondered whether he could get on the line for this new nobleman through Wang Tigan. If Eunuch Gao really couldn't protect himself, it would be considered as leaving a way out for him.

Tian Gang and Li Wei did not follow in, but stayed outside. Kong Zhen was a versatile person. With a look, someone came to greet Tian Gang and Li Wei.

After Liangchen and Wang Tigan entered the post station, they found that there were more than a dozen men in the post station. These men looked stronger than those outside, and they looked very alert when they looked at people. They thought they were Gao Huai's personal guards, and they might even be raising dead soldiers.

"Eunuch Gao is inside, let me go in and report it!" Kong Zhen said as he was about to enter the house and spread it, but he heard the sound of broken bowls coming from inside, and then a sound came out.

"It's fine if the Qiu Bajia in Qiantunwei is making noise. If our family doesn't bother with them, Wang Bangcai and Li Huoyang dare to shout and kill us!... The joke is such a big joke. Our family has been in Liao for ten years and has no credit and has worked hard. I want to see if the emperor believes in them or me!"
