There are three gates on the south side of the planned Bianliang City.
The first gate from east to west is called "Dingding Gate" - this name is "over the top" as soon as you hear it.
On the right side of Dingdingmen Street is the old county seat of Junyi County, and on the left side, the first square from south to north is called "Xuanjiao Square".
There are more than 100 homes planned in the square, which are already occupied and have obtained building permits.
On March 20th, the sky was a little gloomy, with drizzle coming and going.
Tian Cao Zuocheng Yang Ming came to the missionary workshop as a guest.
There is a resident named "Lezhuang" in the square who works as a junior assistant officer in the Huyi Xiaowei Mansion. When Chen Jin escorted the Queen of Yang to Liang County, Lezhuang was the driver of the car. He was related to Yangming, a distant branch of the Yang family.
very good.
"The Queen has given birth to a baby boy." After entering Le's house, Yang and Le left the rest of the crowd behind and sat across from each other chatting about the new things they had heard.
"It's not easy for Queen Hui to have endured for so many years. In fact, she is about the same age as Mr. Liang, and they are suitable for a long-term companionship." After saying this, Lezhuang apologized, got up and went to the front yard to get some dried fruits and a bottle of wine.
.
"Oh? Bian Liangchun?" Yang Ming poured a small bowl, smelled it, and asked with a smile: "Where did you get the money?"
"To be honest with Menghua, the Huyi Schoolmaster's Mansion looks inconspicuous, but it actually has many benefits." Lezhuang said: "In the first month, Duan Mobo gave me two horses, five cows, and fifty sheep.
I didn’t even know where to put it, so I finally asked an acquaintance to help sell it.”
"You are an eighth-grade official and don't want to buy a house?" Yang Ming asked.
Lezhuang pointed to the house and said: "Other people have money to build a house, but they can't get the land. I have no money. The queen still remembered the old things, mentioned it in front of Mr. Liang, and got the land that night.
, I’m stupid for not asking for money. How could I build this house without the Queen’s gift and just relying on my savings? As for buying a manor, it won’t be possible for a while.”
As an eighth-rank official in the Huyi Xiaowei Mansion and with a house in Lifang, Bianliang, the horseman Lezhuang can be said to have jumped up the ranks and established a firm foothold. He has obtained things that others cannot get in their lifetime. The reason is just that the key to that year
It’s time to be the driver.
This is opportunity.
"If you're short of money, I'll lend you some," Yang Ming said.
Although he is from the Yang clan, the Yang family is too big. After more than a hundred years of inheritance, it is impossible for everyone with the surname Yang to be rich and noble. There are also three, six or nine grades within the family. Unfortunately, Yang Ming is the "nine"
, for people like him, the main line will use them occasionally. If the ability is not good, they will not be as good as Dian Ji, a foreigner in the manor, and there are even people who have difficulty in food and clothing.
Lezhuang was a groom, driver, and guard, with extraordinary martial arts skills. His status was lower than that of Yangming, but not too much lower. The two had a very good relationship.
Later, they were both selected and followed Yang Xianrong to Beijing, and their relationship became even better.
Borrowing money is a trivial matter.
"Okay." Lezhuang thought for a moment and did not refuse.
"Who is building a new house next door to your house?" Yang Ming asked.
Now every person who builds a house in Bianliang City is worthy of attention. Soon, his identity will be revealed, and people will try to figure out what virtues and abilities he has, and how he can build a house before others.
"Does Menghua still remember Wang Bing?" Lezhuang asked.
Yang Ming was a little surprised: "It's him!"
"I have also heard that I can't do it accurately." Lezhuang said: "Xuzhou Mi Shijun is a loyal and loyal man. When the Wang family of Donghai approached him, he softened his heart and helped to negotiate an agreement. A while ago, Wang Bing personally led the Tianshi Dao rebellion.
Sanqian Buqu went north to Donglai, Changguang, and won four battles and four victories, capturing and killing thousands of demons. This self-effective act won the forgiveness of Duke Liang."
Active self-efficacy is definitely much better than forced self-efficacy.
In the past, Liang Chen, the lieutenant of Nanyang, was beaten to the bottom and committed suicide in front of the army in Beicheng, Heyang. He died in battle within a few months.
Wang Bing took the initiative to take the action of his family, but he was much better than Liang Chen.
"How do you know?" Yang Ming couldn't hold back.
As Tian Cao Shangshu Zuo Cheng, he has never heard of it. How do you know?
"In the past ten days or so, many people from Qingzhou and Xuzhou have come to Dingdingmen Street. You will know if you ask around." Lezhuang said with a smile: "When Liang Gong married a wife, many people from various tribes in Xuzhou came. There was even an unknown person.
The well-known local tycoon Daoshi sent his tribesmen to give him gifts. Liang Gong still remembers this. This time Daoshi selected 200 elite soldiers to join the army. Liang Gong directly incorporated them into the Luoyan Army and promised to Daoshi.
Purchase land and build a house in 'Xuanrenfang' in the north."
Yang Ming thought about it and sighed: "We will go to camp when we arrive."
When Mr. Liang gets married, it makes sense that someone from Xuzhou comes to give gifts. After all, the township party is the party. But you are a small local tycoon who has nothing to do with Mr. Liang, so what kind of gift do you want to give? Are you qualified to give gifts?
Precisely because this matter was widely circulated and discussed by many people, it was relatively rare, so Mr. Liang remembered it. I guess Mrs. Yu also made fun of it, so the opportunity suddenly came.
I have to say, some people really sharpen their heads and work hard, I admire them.
"Liang Gong is from Xuzhou, so he will definitely reuse the Qingxu scholars." Lezhuang said: "Now there are many Donghai people in Liang Palace, and there will be many Qingxu people in Bianliang in the future. Has King Tian Cao, Shangshu, come back?"
Tian Cao Shangshu Wang Xuan, an authentic native of Xuzhou Langya country, has great influence in Qingzhou and Xuzhou. After Qingzhou was pacified last year, Wang Xuan stayed in the town for a long time, and his main job was to win over the wealthy families of Qingzhou.
Can you still not see what Liang Gong was thinking when he made such an appointment?
"When I came back, I also brought with me a lot of Qingzhou's 'junyans'. Each of them has a good foundation and must be hired according to their talents." Yang Ming said: "On the contrary, most of the disciples who came to Bianliang with Yushi Youcheng Wang Pou were from humble backgrounds, powerful and even poor people.
.This old man is quite interesting. Perhaps the disciple who feels that he has no foundation will be more grateful for his support, which will be beneficial to his family in the future."
Lezhuang nodded slowly, and then sighed: "Liang Gong's territory is getting bigger and bigger, but the power of the generals and subordinates is getting more and more complicated. Sometimes I can't tell which factions there are."
Yang Ming laughed when she heard this.
As for the factions, they are not yet fully formed. Up to now, they are still slowly integrating and dividing. I don’t know how many years it will take for this process to end.
For now, the only relatively clear faction is the Yingchuan clique. The Hebei clique is actually a little fuzzy, not cohesive enough, and relatively loose.
Liang Fen, the Minister of Civil Affairs, had just arrived. He was still in the process of integrating the Kansai scholars, and it was still early to form a faction.
Nowadays, there is a large influx of Qingxu scholars, and this faction is even just a sprout.
The above is divided by region.
If we look at people, Yu Chen and Lu Zhi may have some partisans.
Wang Yan also has one, but half of his followers are in the Luoyang court and half are in the general's palace, which is not as good as the first two.
If further divided according to their origins, they can be divided into Liang Gong Cong Laorou Faction, Sima Yue Old Tribe Faction, and "foreign relative" faction.
If divided by job title...
It's too much trouble, why bother?
The only thing that is clear is that Duke Liang is the arbiter recognized by all forces. There is no second person in the Bianliang military and political group. Once Duke Liang is unfortunate, no one can accept this huge force, and it will only fall apart.
.
People like Yu Chen, Lu Zhi, Wang Yan and others can deeply understand this, so they are willing to sit down and talk with Liang Gong no matter what.
No one can afford the consequences of fragmentation.
"Don't think too much." Yang Ming took a big sip of wine and said with a smile: "The matter of the queen giving birth to a child is extremely important. Don't spread it outside. Duke Liang wants to be shameless. The queen is not really 'Mrs. Sheep.'
If something happens, it will be a big trouble. After a while, someone from the Sun family in Le'an will come to Beijing and I can contact you."
"Why don't Menghua come by himself?" Lezhuang asked curiously.
"It's inconvenient." Yang Ming said with a bitter smile.
Lezhuang understands.
The Sun family of Le'an is the maternal clan of Queen Hui, and is considered an important fulcrum of the Taiyang family in the Qingzhou area. However, this family is not so much a member of the Taiyang family as it is the support of Queen Hui and the Yang family.
The Sun family of Le'an did not kill the three queens who married Wang Jun. This is because the big family has this confidence.
However, they intervened in Hebei through their in-laws, the Leling Shi family, etc. This group had assembled four to five thousand soldiers and horses, and went north to command Li Zhong to suppress the rebellion in Hebei. Yes, there were gentry in Hebei who were dissatisfied with Liang Gong's elevation of the status of warriors and rebelled angrily.
.
After hearing that Liu Kun had fled to Tuoba Xianbei territory, he was afraid of being killed, so he sneaked back to Zhongshan, recruited troops, and tried to do something.
Generally speaking, the situation in Hebei is not as stable as the year after Shile was pacified.
Liang Gong did not have any direct troops in Hebei, they were all conscripted soldiers from various wealthy families. This situation seemed to have made Shi Le see an opportunity and ambitiously tried to return to Changshan.
At this time, it is necessary for these relatively close descendants of the wealthy families to take the initiative to share their worries for Mr. Liang. This is actually a rare opportunity for these wealthy families themselves.
After Yang and Le drank a pot of wine, they parted ways to say goodbye.
Yang Ming rode a donkey and headed north along Dingdingmen Street until he reached the north bank of Daliang Canal before turning west.
Along the way, I did hear a lot of Qingzhou and Xuzhou accents.
These people gathered in groups, looking around at this huge city that was in the process of being built, and marveled at the wooden signs erected everywhere, which often stated where this place was.
A capital city with a very formal political power, which made their expectations even higher.
The first stop for Qingxu scholars after coming to Bianliang was often the royal residence in Shangshanfang, which was the residence of Tian Cao Shangshu Wang Xuan.
