"The Emperor is under the blessing of the Heavens. The edict says: First Emperor Gao drove the Tawau to the north. He has restored the orthodox clothing of the Divine Lands and obtained the blessings of the heavens and the earth. He even has the prosperity of his heirs. The current descendants of Vassal State of Lu were all gone, replaced by filial piety. Upper Scrub please reclaim 1 square, do not fear 9 sides bitter cold. When we heard this, we were quite comforted, and thus, we bestowed the title of with the ability to protect the thousands of families, bestowing them with actual duties and heritages. I hope you will be diligent and take me as an example to the world. "Here it is."

"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"

After the ceremony, Zhu Yisu was not even a little bit excited, because the Xinping Fort was a huge pit of fire!

The Xinping Fort was located at the northernmost corner of the Datong Town, right at the foot of the Great Wall. A few steps to the east was Xuan Mansion Town, and it was one of the three Mashi s the imperial government opened.

One could imagine how deep the water was.

He suspected that if he jumped too high and displeased the emperor, he would arrange for the father and son pair to enter Xinping Fort. The reason for Xinping Fort was because they were extremely wealthy, and were the money bags for the Datong Town 'family of generals. If he were to take over the position of Xinping Fort as a thousand men, it would be equivalent to being roasted on fire.

After dealing with these guards and family of generals, they still had to consider the matter of the northern barbarians, the invaders of the Horse Bandit.

Zhu Yisu didn't know yet, Emperor Wanli only casually asked Qian Hu whether there were any vacancies on the side of the door. After learning that there hadn't been any Qian Hu in the past five years of Xinping Fort, he conveniently filled him in. Perhaps, even Emperor Wanli didn't know the exact location of the Xinping Fort. Since he knew that it was in the Datong Town, it shouldn't be too far away from it.

Accompanying secret service of the Ming Dynasty were the official uniforms, printed letters, and passed them to Zhu Yisu. Zhu Yisu returned to his room to change his clothes, while Angel Liu Shimin was arranged to eat tea in his main room. He chatted with Old Man Liu, who was wearing a qilin suit. They were chatting very harmoniously.

Although Liu Shimin was a eunuch, he was the official fourth rank of Yanqing Guards. At the age of sixteen, he had a strange dream. He executed his own sentence in the palace and entered the palace in the second year of his life.

Being chosen as a disciple by Chief Eunuch Chen Jing, this Chen Jing did not care whether he used Espionage Agency or not. In the Ming dynasty, where outstanding eunuchs gathered, Chen Jing held only eight words: "the law of ancestors, the principle of sage". He was clean and quiet, he did not disturb the officials nor harm the people, he never abused his power, he only tried to correct the shortcomings of the times, and was called "Buddha".

And Liu Shimin Wei Wei Institute senior officer family background, I also read a lot of poetry books. Although he had become a eunuch, Chen Li had taken a fancy to him because of his good name. Therefore, his reputation in the court was also very good.

"His Majesty was delighted to have such a wise man in the clan for a few days. It was unknown what unforeseen event placed the State Dedicating Lieutenant in the Xinping Fort. The State Dedicating Lieutenant was an example given by the clan, if they were unlucky enough to lose their Xinping Fort. The sect leader of the Under Heaven Sect will definitely be disappointed, and will still need Old Lord's help. "

Old Master Liu stroked his beard and laughed: "Sir Liu is relieved. If we exchange the Xinping Fort for 35, I believe we would be much safer. With State Dedicating Lieutenant as a student, it was enough to suppress the internal world. As for the Northern Elder's Horse Bandit, this little old man can't do anything about it. "

"That's good too. After State Dedicating Lieutenant has made some achievements, we can help out to upgrade the State Dedicating Lieutenant to the Shandong City Guards Institution. At least, we can be considered to have returned Prince Lu's lineage. This way, when the flag of the State Dedicating Lieutenant is set up, the other sects will be able to follow suit and take responsibility for the court. "

Each of them had the Espionage Agency as their leader, while the other had the secret service of the Ming Dynasty as their chief. Due to Chen Xiang being a great eunuch who abided by his duty, there wasn't much enmity between the two.

Currently, many officials in the imperial court still wanted to bring Liu Shimin to the position of General of the Espionage Agency factory to reproduce Chen Li's aura and spy agency when he was still alive. Of course, Chen Xi did not abuse his authority when he was in charge of Espionage Agency, which was what the civil officials liked to see the most.

It was a pity that the authority to command the Espionage Agency factory was in the hands of the emperor, and the civil officials could not make a decision. If he could make the decision, Zhu Family would be in danger.

The two of them then chatted about Second Elder Brother Zhu. Liu Shimin was slightly curious and asked: "Why is the son of the State Dedicating Lieutenant so naughty? What puzzled us was that the State Dedicating Lieutenant seemed to hold his son in high regard. "

"To tell you the truth, for Second Elder Brother Zhu, State Dedicating Lieutenant almost risked his life with this old man." As Liu Old Lord spoke, he forced a smile and recounted the matter of Second Elder Brother Zhu's near death, then continued, "Second Elder Brother Zhu is not like what Lord Liu saw. After all, he was used to saving money in the past, so this child can still suffer. What was even more rare was that because of the saving grace that the Lee Family young lady had given him, she would often go to the Lee Family to help out with some idle time while she was reading. Today, when we cut the wheat, Second Elder Brother Zhu was also brought here by Little Flag Hee Chong. "

Seeing Liu Shimin's curiosity, Liu Shugang picked out some interesting things about Second Elder Brother Zhu and said: "According to State Dedicating Lieutenant, Second Elder Brother Zhu can now recite 4 books and 5 scriptures, and can interpret sentences. Second Elder Brother Zhu is a person of pure filial piety, his culinary skills are excellent and filial to the State Dedicating Lieutenant, and he has become the talk of the village. "

Nodding his head, Liu Shimin let out a soft sigh. He turned to Old Man Liu and talked about what he had heard along the way.

There were some things that were inappropriate to say. He was the minister, so even though this old man had retired secret service of the Ming Dynasty, he still had it. The two had Chen Jing, a good eunuch, mediating between them. However, their positions were fundamentally opposed to each other.

At this time, after Second Elder Brother Zhu took a bath and changed his clothes, Zhao Qi combed his hair. His face was filled with joy, he did not expect the emperor to be so generous, a small State Dedicating Lieutenant could actually exchange for a genuine fifth stage official.

Even if it was just a fake job, their family would still be able to profit. Firstly, he could get rid of the constraints of the Imperial Clan Court and gain his freedom. Secondly, the fifth rank officials also had salaries, which was no lower than that of the State Dedicating Lieutenant s.

"Second brother, now that the old master has been bestowed the position of a thousand households by His Majesty, this old servant feels that it's time to find two maids to command the second brother. Like this job of combing my hair, does second brother want this old servant or do you want to use a charming servant girl? "

Was there even a need to choose? After tying up his hair, Second Elder Brother Zhu looked at himself in the bronze mirror and smiled, "You should also find a few so that you can be a housekeeper. "It's best to find a successor for my father, since I'm the only son in the family. If I have a younger brother and sister, I wouldn't be alone."

"Second brother is filial and filial. Master has a fifth rank official body now and no one can manage the inner chamber. It is not good for me to take care of relations with colleagues."

Second Elder Brother Zhu only smiled when he heard this. Zhu Yisu was restricted by Imperial Clan Court in the past, so let alone marrying a concubine, he had even lost the right to take her in as a concubine. Now, even if he objected, it would be useless. He might as well tell Zhao Qi earlier and express his attitude.

He was now the eldest son. Even if he were to have a son in the future, what was the use of having a son. If he couldn't even suppress his little brother, who was around ten years old, then he would be a failure.

One of them was wearing a white, sleeveless, moon-white, sleeveless silk dress. His hair was tied behind his head with a green ribbon. In his hand was a folding fan, which was Second Elder Brother Zhu's current attire.

A thousand households of the Acropolis are on horseback and leading the army. They are in charge of the territory of about one township, and they are completely reliant on the army for their righteousness. One of them was wearing a blue official uniform. He wore a jade belt, fine boots, and a black gauze hat. It was Zhu Yisu's current disguise.

It was all thanks to Old Man Liu's consideration of bringing the family's chef over that Zhu Yisu was able to lay out the dishes that could be seen through.

On the table, other than Liu Shimin, Zhu Yisu, and Old Master Liu, there were also Daizhou Zhizhou who rushed over upon hearing the news. Even Yan Men's Qian Hu rushed over as well.

When the King learned of the Son of Heaven's decree, he could not sit idly by and ignore it. He also sent someone to send him a gift for a total of 1,000 taels of silver. There were two ox-carts as well. The oxen were under the control of the government, and each of them was registered. Not to mention slaughtering them, they were even farmed in the spring for three days.

Second Elder Brother Zhu brought a pair of ears with him. Unless someone asked him a question, he would keep his eyes and nose open and his mouth open. Even the tasty dishes were untouched, and he carefully tried to figure out the art of these officialdom veterans' conversations.

The few people at the table were having their first meeting, but they were having a great time chatting. The topic of conversation was endless, as if they knew each other and were old friends.

Liu Shimin, a three-year-old eunuch, was not as feminine as the other eunuchs. On the other hand, he was humble, just like a literary man full of poetic talent.

There were only a few people that were eunuchs with Ming Dynasty. One of them was that his parents could not support him, and he sold him to the palace with a single slash. This made up the majority, and he was unwilling to grow up without problems in his heart. Ever since he was young, He Yue and a bunch of eunuch had been taught by the warriors of Hanlin Academy.

The second kind was someone who could not survive in society after growing up and would cut himself off to enter the palace to work as a laborer. For example, Wei Zhongxian. If he lost the gamble, after losing his wife and daughter, he might as well cut himself off.

History had proven that Wei Zhongxian's decision was wise, as he had some use for Ming Dynasty. The most direct example was when he controlled the imperial government and forcefully suppressed the Donglin Party. No matter how poor the imperial government was, they still had the money to pay him.

Even before Emperor Chong Zhen died, he was lamenting that with Wei Zhongxian here, he wouldn't be reduced to such a state. I feel a little Cao Cao soldier defeat Red Cliff, sighing over Guo Jia's taste?

The third type of eunuch, which was more miserable, was appointed by the criminal. The famous one is 3 treasure eunuch Zheng He, originally called Ma 3 treasure. The in the early Ming dynasty went back to chaos, and after calming down, it was dealt with according to the rules.

Different from the three above, Liu Shimin was born of a high family, but he cut himself off, so he naturally didn't have any problems with it. He didn't like people calling him father-in-law, and he liked dealing with people with a normal attitude.

There were many eunuchs in the palace, and only a small group of people could rise up and call themselves eunuchs. Having no son was their greatest regret. Therefore, the eunuchs would only adopt eunuch, who was pleasing to the eye, as their own disciple. In fact, they entrusted him with the love of a successor.

This Liu Shimin was from Chen Jing, and he had a good reputation as an angel this time around. Moreover, Yanmen Institute's thousand households did not have the moral integrity a scholar should have. Adding to that, Liu Shimin was originally a disciple of the Acropolis Academy, so he started flattering Liu Shimin one after the other.

Second Elder Brother Zhu listened for a long time before he roughly understood Liu Shimin's past. In the later generation, he had never even heard of Chen Jing, not to mention Liu Shimin, one of Chen Jing's disciples. The ones who heard the most were Cao Huachun, Yu Hua Tian, Liu Jin, Wei Zhongxian and other important figures. Wei Zhongxian was about to appear on stage. He reckoned that Liu Shimin, who had a good reputation, would be in trouble.

Liu Shimin curiously looked at Second Elder Brother Zhu a few times, Second Elder Brother Zhu saw the blisters on the palm of his hand, in his heart, he understood. He decided to go back and tell Emperor Wanli. Perhaps, he could even make the emperor happy.

What the Emperor needed now was reliable good news. Good news could make the Emperor happy, and then he could recuperate.
