Chapter 1780 Under Dongshan
The meeting ended.
Lu Zhengyuan was quickly surrounded again. He had become the Secretary-General of the Fiefdom Management and Planning Administration, which can be said to be a truly high-power position!
In the current background of Your Majesty's massive enfeoffment, it is unknown how many fiefdoms will be granted in the future. The prince has already begun to supervise the country. The other princes are approaching the age of weak crowns and may all be crowned kings...
Will it also be under the supervision of the General Administration at that time?
Lu Zhengyuan's power will be very great!
No one can stop his popularity, especially the nobles with fiefdoms who cannot be offended. If you can make friends with him, you must make friends with him.
Many courtiers gathered around and clasped their fists to express their congratulations.
Lu Zhengyuan originally had a normal complexion, but his expression changed immediately after seeing these people.
"I, the pastor, cannot bear your congratulations, but I can bear your curses!"
After saying that, he threw up his sleeves and left.
"this……"
"Why...why are you so arrogant?"
Everyone looked at each other in shock.
"We intended to make friends with him and ease him, but what we got in exchange was alienation... Could it be that he just doesn't rely on others?"
"I am a popular person in front of His Majesty and a hero of Daning, so why would you care?"
"You will not end well if you offend Mr. Lu. Although Wu Cheng went to Jiangzhou to become an inspector and censor, which seemed to be a promotion, it won't take long before he will end up losing his life as an official!"
Everyone nodded.
Looking at Lu Zhengyuan's arrogant attitude, maybe he can really do such a thing...
"He will definitely take revenge. The mention just now is a hint!"
"As long as we and others unite, we have nothing to fear, not to mention we still have Mr. Xue..."
"Yes, Master Xue!"
Thinking of this, everyone quickened their pace and surrounded Xue Qing.
"Lord Xue, stay!"
"Master Xue, I have something to ask you."
Seeing this scene, Xue Qing's heart trembled.
Lu Zhengyuan is not a human son, and this is harming me. Instead of stopping, he walks even faster...
You have to avoid suspicion.
I want to avoid suspicion even more!
How else can you live longer?
It was really a waste of time to invite him to drink, Xue Qing reprimanded in his heart...
At this moment, Lu Zhengyuan, who had just left the court, went to take office, accompanied by Zhao Nanxing, the second assistant, and Peng Fang, the official minister.
The General Administration of Land Management and Planning established a new government office outside the palace to the east of Daning Gate.
The six government offices of the imperial court were located on both sides of Daning Gate, which shows its status. Within a few steps, you can reach the Ministry of War.
Hu Biao stood at the door of the Ministry of War Yamen and looked out. He and Lu Zhengyuan came to Daning together. These two people were really helping each other.
Hu Biao is also the sixth son. He was once the chief officer of the Liang State Procuratorate and a close confidant of Zhu Zhen. He came to Daning and was highly regarded by Fei Tian. Now he is in charge of the Secret Intelligence Agency of the Ministry of War.
It's been a few days since Lu Zhengyuan came back, but he hasn't come to visit... It's not because the relationship between the two has become indifferent, but because he avoids suspicion!
Both of their identities are different from when they first came to Daning, especially since he is still the chief of the Secret Intelligence Service, so we need to pay more attention...
Mr. Lu is really prosperous!
Hu Biao couldn't help but sigh.
Standing at the Yamen of the Ministry of War, you can see the Yamen of the General Administration of Fiefdom Management and Planning.
This name is extremely convoluted, but it does not affect its rights at all, and it is not much better than the six...
"What are you looking at?"
"Master Fei."
Hu Biao hurriedly turned around, and the person calling him was Master Fei, the Minister of the Ministry of War.
He didn't dare to neglect.
This person is an evergreen tree in Daning. He was the first minister of the Ministry of War in the founding dynasty of Daning, and he remains so until now.
He was only in his forties at that time, and now he is eighty in his fifties. It would be no problem to continue working for more than ten years. The ministers changed several times, but he still firmly held the position of minister.
Fei Tian frowned and asked, "What? Do you want to join Mr. Lu?"
"How come?"
Hu Biao said hurriedly: "In Daning, you are the only supporter of Xiaguan!"
His admiration for Fei Tian comes from the bottom of his heart. What kind of old man can gamble with His Majesty's opening of the market?
What Fei Tian is most proud of is not that he has been the Minister of the Ministry of War for so many years, but that he has a plaque given by the emperor as the Gambling King of Daning...
"That's pretty much it."
Fei Tian said: "When Mr. Lu officially takes office, I will take you around..."
"Coming!"
While talking.
Lu Zhengyuan and others had already walked over, and many officials in front of the yamen of the Fiefdom Administration bowed to greet them.
"The yamen's airs have been set up. I don't know how many people are waiting for you to take office."
Zhao Nanxing smiled and said: "The first thing you will do when you take office is to seal off the fiefdom... Your Majesty has already told you, right?"
As the former concurrent minister, Zhao Nanxing and Lu Zhengyuan began to hand over...
"Have you read that agreement?"
"Looked at it."
"Your responsibilities are very heavy, and fiefdom management is no small matter."
"That is."
Looking at Lu Zhengyuan's expression, Zhao Nanxing knew that he had understood the holy meaning.
Surrounded by everyone, Lu Zhengyuan entered the Yamen and officially took office...
At this moment, Guan Ning also drove out of Shangjing City and headed east, finally entering Dongshan.
Dongshan is where the imperial mausoleums of the previous dynasties were located and is also the famous Coal Mountain.
Emperor Longjing of the previous dynasty had issued a coal ban. He believed that digging coal everywhere and digging mountains would destroy the dragon's veins, cut off the dragon's veins, and destroy the country's destiny...
It's even more impossible to dig coal in Dongshan. Wouldn't that be breaking ground on our ancestors?
What is ironic is that the powerful people were digging coal in Dongshan without telling him. It was not discovered by Guan Ning until the early days of the new dynasty. At that time, his relatives, the Yang family, got involved and hired laborers from the north to dig coal.
The profits from this are too great.
In order to make profits, they did not hesitate to offend the power of Heaven. They could deceive Emperor Longjing, but they could not deceive him, the new emperor.
When Guan Ning found out, he was furious and beheaded his uncles and cousins one by one.
At this moment, the coal ban was lifted, and the General Administration of Mines was established to be responsible for all matters related to the establishment of coal mines, supervision of mining, and other related matters.
As Dongshan has the largest coal reserves, he naturally couldn't let it go. At first, it aroused great opposition, saying that it would disturb the previous emperor and make trouble on Emperor Longjing's head.
