Not long after, the entire capital was in action. There were tables of flowing tables, and the banquets were all the hundreds of families and the general flags of the personal army. These people were also enjoying the food. Wherever there was food, they would be there, and they would eat short people.

People are short-spoken, so they are naturally applauding Xu Chang.

And those military officers of the thousand-level households will naturally help lobby. In fact, once mobilized, the Xu family's strength will be fully exerted.

After all, the Xu family controls the Royal Academy, and many prominent figures in the personal army have experienced many children in the Royal Academy. In a sense, these people naturally have interests with the Xu family, and are relatives of the royal family at this time.

We were everywhere and lobbying everywhere under the guise of Xu Qianhu, just to tell everyone that Xu Qianhu wanted to be the commander, and everyone had to work hard for this matter.

A large sum of money was moved out on Ruyifang. It is said that a new workshop was built on the Tianjin Manufacturing Bureau, specializing in selling weapons. Officials of the army all had shares according to their grade, and some were large shares.

Some small shares, as long as they are officials, have a share of their own hands.

The Xu family takes the lead in doing business, and the profits are completely reassuring. Everyone is naturally very happy to pay dividends for nothing.

At this time, Zhu Chen, the commander of the Jinyiwei, and several co-prime ministers, had a difficult life.

First, someone talked about love, Jinwu Guard, Wuxiang Guard, Yulin Guard... In short, if everyone deals with him, they will inevitably come to the door, saying that the commander-in-chief who has been vacant this time should be the most suitable for Xu Chang to come.

Isn’t everyone just asking for money when becoming an official? The Xu family is the God of Wealth. Isn’t that good to let him come out and make money with everyone? As for Wu Qianhu, you can wait a little longer, there will be opportunities in the future.

Zhu Chen is not a fool. When he saw these people lobbying, he knew what was going on. The reason why he didn't want Xu Chang to be promoted to Assistant was because Xu Chang's threat was too great. This guy is now quite popular with the emperor's heart, which is even more terrifying.

What's wrong is that it has been so popular recently. I don't know how many people from Beizhen Prefecture want to go to the Road and Political Bureau to handle the work. He is a thousand households, but he is more popular than Zhu Chen, the commander.

In addition, Xu Chang's promotion speed is too fast. If he doesn't jail him with the assistant, in a few years, wouldn't he kick him down and replace him?

Therefore, he would rather tolerate Wu Pei than tolerate Xu Chang, and wanted Xu Chang to be promoted to Assistant, unless he was a commander.

With this thought, for all the lobbyists, they naturally make an official voice, but others are not fools. They come to plead with mercy. This is polite. I hope you can give you some face. As a result, you make an official voice, which means you don’t give it at all.

Face is here.

These senior officials in the pro-military system value face the most. When they see that what they say is not good, their smiling face is reciprocated and their faces are naturally not good-looking.

What are you? Aren’t you the old man from the Xingwang Mansion? When you were still in Hubei, my ancestors had already made achievements in the founding of the country and the Jingnan Campaign for three generations!

Zhu Chen's mood was naturally getting worse and worse. It didn't matter if he offended one or two, but there were too many people who came to lobby, so he refused to let go, which was equivalent to offending everyone.

What made Zhu Chen even more depressed was that immediately afterwards, an important person came to the door.

The person who came was Wang Cheng. Wang Cheng was a very straightforward person. He asked someone to carry a box and said it was a gift. In front of Zhu Chen, the box opened, and the silver light shone in an instant, but it was full of boxes.

Ingot silver.

"Commander Zhu, I hate the most. These silvers are not given to you by me, but by Xu Chang and Xu Qianhu. He works in the Weizhong and takes care of you, so I let me

Send this little worthless thing, do you want to count it? The total is 10,000 taels of silver. If you save it, you will be short of weight and ask me for it."

Zhu Chen was stunned. Naturally, his first thought was to refuse flatly, but he would not succeed directly. It would be fine if he offended others. Anyway, he would not worry about debt. After all, he was also the commander of the Jinyiwei, but offending Wang Cheng would be equivalent to offending him.

If the Empress Dowager, even the Empress Dowager dislikes you, will there be good results in the future?

He was thinking of various reasons and excuses.

Wang Cheng was obviously not interested in listening to his nonsense, so he shook his fan and said, "Okay, my business has been done, I have fulfilled my mission. Now I feel relieved. This box will be left here, see you again."

He turned around and left without looking back, unable to stop him.

Zhu Chen looked at the box in amazement, his mind was a little overwhelmed.

He suddenly realized that this matter was a bit big. The problem now was not to stop Xu Chang from being promoted, but whether he could continue to do it.

In fact, like Zhu Chen, Wang Zuo, Chen Yin and others face the same troubles. They really want to help Wu Pei, but the problem is that they can't offend everyone just by pulling Wu Pei.

After all, they are not Zhu Chen. They are now facing Zhu Chen. If Zhu Chen sees the wind and gets involved with these people, they hit it off, but they push themselves and others to the king!

On the contrary, the few of them, the co-prime ministers and the assistants, whether they can continue to save the things they are now is a matter of two things.

At this point, it is obvious that there is only one way to lose the pawns and protect the car, but if you really want to lose the pawns and protect the car, your face is a little unresolved.

Wu Pei was also heartbroken now, and he was anxious. Many people came to him. First, they called Wu Qianhu, you have a lot of prospects, and they were young, and they would definitely be able to reach the top in the future. After a turn of the topic, they would immediately say

, But now, don't join in the fun, it's boring. Xu Chang and Xu Qianhu have already spoken out. Think about it, your saints have Xu Changgao, and you can have a son of a rank-in official, wave your hand

, Can you squander hundreds of thousands of dollars? After all, they are old and time doesn't wait for anyone, but your time is all about it. If you are willing to be a human being, this face will be owed to you. What are the benefits in the future? Naturally

It's easy to say.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Song, the chief officer of the Nanzhen Prefecture Department, also came to the door, looked at him with a cold face, and said, "When you were in the Qianhu City, you were aware of some things. Everyone came out of Xingwang Mansion.

Yes, there is no need for your family to kill each other. Also, the scholar you killed by your son has already helped you settle the matter. Everyone will think that this has not happened in the future. Okay, that's all,

You think about it yourself.”

Wu Pei was really crying and thought that this rank would be obtained. Who knew that in the end, such a thing happened. Now he has become more entangled and cautious. It is not scary to expose that little thing. After all, he is happy.

The old people in the royal palace, but the problem is that so many people are now looking at themselves like tigers and wolves. Once they are stabbed out, maybe many people will take the opportunity to step on themselves. At that time, the officers will definitely have no hope.

Now, I don’t know whether these thousand households can be kept or not.

Of course, the palace naturally needs to be managed.

In the Great Gaoxuan Palace, Huang Jin would report some of his usual news to Jiajing as usual.

Jiajing was wearing Taoist clothes and sat cross-legged on the cushion, and then heard Huang Jin say, "Your Majesty, Yongfeng Bo, has been running around for the Xu family recently, but has won over many personal military officers and waved flags and shouted for him. The thousand-house Wu

Pei also seems to have the intention of retreating from difficulties. As for the commander Zhu Chen, he doesn't say anything now."

"Is that true?" Jiajing smiled faintly, opened his eyes and said, "Where is the Xu family's father and son?"

Huang Jin said: "The father and son hold banquets everywhere, invite people to drink, and if they don't come if they have something to do, they will come to the door in person, for fear that others won't come. In the past few days, there are flowing tables everywhere in the capital, and the military officers of the army want to hide.

I can't hide it. Many people are drunk on duty in recent days."

Jiajing couldn't help laughing: "Why, I thought I could buy people with a meal of wine and food. This father and son are sometimes really smart, sometimes really stupid."

Huang Jin said awkwardly: "Your Majesty is wise."

In fact, it was not Jiajing, but Huang Jin. Xu Qian had already prepared the situation on Huang Jin. There was such a big strife outside, and he was so excited that he was trying to win over the military officers everywhere, which was heard in Jiajing's ears. After all, it was not very nice.

Even if Your Majesty does not arouse suspicion, it is hard to guarantee that he will not be disgusted. He will connect with the emperor and pull people everywhere. How many heads do you have?

However, Huang Jin solved this problem cleverly. The first thing he mentioned was Wang Cheng, saying that Wang Cheng went out to pull the head. Who is Wang Cheng? Wang Cheng was the empress dowager's younger brother and Jiajing's uncle. He went out.

He pulled people out and went out to connect with each other, so naturally he would not make Jiajing suspicious. After all, Wang Cheng's current life was all due to the empress dowager. When he came out to do things, it was equivalent to the empress dowager going out to do things. Everyone may not be able to see Wang Cheng's face.

It is the queen mother and the face of her own emperor.

The Xu family and his son only said that they held a big banquet and covered up some details. This was called Jiajing's eyes. Instead of feeling alert, he felt a little cute and ridiculous.

"In this way, Xu Chang's promotion to deputy chief is a foregone conclusion. Bo Yongfeng is really a scattered person. This kind of thing is also a smack. You should prepare to draft an order. The order must be sent out at any time.

I ordered Xu Chang to be the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei and make him loyal."

"Also, why did the Hanlin not plan to attack the Tatars? If you have time to go to the Hanlin to urge them, these people are becoming increasingly lazy."

"Yes, I'll ask now. Does Your Majesty have any instructions?"

Jiajing had already closed his eyes, and in the old monk sat down, he exhaled a few breaths of turbid air, and waved his hand impatiently. Huang Jin understood and carefully retreated out.
