Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Hongchang, my eldest brother has left me without worries. As long as you promise me one thing, I will be responsible for persuading Xiuer to give up the inheritance rights of Lang Son Palace." Nguyen Phu Ajiang thought more than Guan Chongguang. Seeing Zhou Shixiong quietly  And Hui guessed what he was thinking, so she chose a showdown.

    "Auntie, Hongchang has no intention of seizing Lang Son Mansion. If auntie wants Hongchang to support his adopted brother, Hongchang will not hesitate." Either the politician is shameless or not thick enough. Before anyone said you were a thief, Zhou Shixiong jumped out.  Confessed.

    "Hongchang, don't be anxious. I don't mean to blame you. Nowadays, no one in Lang Son can hold up the facade except you. You'd better listen to what I have to say." Ruan Phu Ajiang was amused by Zhou Shixiong's childishness.  After a while, she became more confident that Zhou Shixiong would agree to her conditions.

    "Auntie, please tell me." Zhou Shixiong shut his mouth honestly and listened to Ruan Phu Ajiang's conditions.

    "I will spend three years building the mausoleum for my eldest brother. If you can destroy the Ruan Phuc clan within these three years, I will give you all the forces left by King Ping'an to help you seize the throne of the Northern Dynasty." Ruan Phuc.  Ajiang said it very seriously, but Zhou Shixiong didn't feel cold at all.  If Zheng Song was really powerful, how could he be killed by his younger brother Zheng Du? Zhou Shixiong guessed that Ruan Phuoc was deceiving him.

    "Why, Hongchang doesn't believe in me?" Zhou Shixiong didn't know how to hide his emotions at all, and Ruan Fu Ajiang saw it right away.

    "Auntie, it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. You should know that my original intention is just to take the road and will not take root in Jiaozhi. The throne of the Northern and Southern Dynasties does not appeal to me." Zhou Shixiong evaded the important and reiterated his consistent opinion.

    "Hongchang, it is not difficult to build a ship and go to sea. With your current worth, it is easy to buy a few sea-going ships. But why do you sacrifice the near and far away and insist on training sailors to build sea-going ships yourself? This is somewhat contrary to your idea of ??avoiding trouble overseas!"  Nguyen Phu A Giang unceremoniously exposed Zhou Shixiong's ulterior motives and was preparing to build his own kingdom overseas.

    "Auntie, there's nothing I can do about it. With so many people following me, Hongchang can't just think about his own family. When there are too many people, things get difficult." To be honest, Zhou Shixiong suddenly realized that he seemed to have done something wrong.  , if you can complete the idea of ??going to sea by buying a few sea-going ships, why do you have to build them yourself, which is so time-consuming and labor-intensive?

    "Yes, the army alone has more than ten thousand people. If you want to transport so many people to sea, you will definitely not be able to do it without hundreds of large ships. You can only build it yourself. But has Hongchang ever thought about it? If he does not control a seaport, this  Where to put hundreds of big ships? If you don¡¯t have stable financial resources, how can you build so many big ships? The most important thing is, if you don¡¯t have a force of your own, how can you support these shipbuilding craftsmen, sailors and soldiers?"

    Zhou Shixiong was about to say a few words, but Ruan Phu Ajiang waved his hand to stop him, "Don't mention Lang Son Prefecture. There are less than 200,000 people in Lang Son Prefecture. Even if you let them all, they still won't be able to meet your needs. Guang Ninh  Not to mention the government, it would be great if the government of 100,000 people can feed itself, and they have no chance of developing outward."

    Zhou Shixiong understood that Ruan Fu Ajiang had already considered the excuses he might give, and at the same time reminded him that although Jiaozhi is a grain-producing land, its population is really small. Even if Zhou Shixiong wanted to develop stably, he would not be able to do so.  Many people helped him with his work.  It seems that it is impossible not to fight!

    "Okay, Hong Chang is willing to accept my aunt's conditions, defeat the Nguyen Phuoc family within three years, and avenge my aunt for my adoptive father." For the sake of labor, Zhou Shixiong must accept Nguyen Phuoc Ajiang's conditions. As for those legendary forces, Zhou Shixiong  He has no hope, he just wants to plunder the people under the Ruan Phuc clan and work for himself!

    ¡°In two days, I will take Xiu Er and her son to Le Clan Villa, and Lang Son House will be handed over to you.¡± After Nguyen Phuc A Giang explained the funeral affairs, Zhou Shixiong went to the ancestral hall in Naizhai to offer incense to Nguyen Phuc and keep vigil for seven days.

    On October 20, shocking news came out of Lang Son Mansion again.  After negotiations, Lang Son Palace was willing to return Tuyen Quang Palace to Nguyen Phuc, on the condition that Nguyen Phuc and his allies agreed that Ji Hong Chang would take over as the head of Lang Son Palace and promised not to interfere with the ownership of Bac Giu Palace.

    Why change the palace owner?  Because the former head of the palace Nguyen Phuc Bao died suddenly, Nguyen Phuc Bao's widow Le Xiu expressed her willingness to pass the position of head of Lang Son Palace to Ji Hongchang, the adopted son of Nguyen Phuc Bao.  A few days later, Fan Ganji, the head of Taiyuan Prefecture, expressed his opinion and supported Ji Hongchang's appointment as the head of Lang Son Prefecture.  And reiterated that Taiyuan Province and Lang Son Province are allies.

    The head of Beizhi Mansion, Zheng Lisheng, also made a similar statement, but did not mention allies.  The head of Quang Ninh Palace, Chen Nhat Yin, congratulated Ji Hongchang on taking over as the head of the palace and offered a reward for the murderer of Nguyen Phuc Bao.  Lang Son's enemies Nguyen Phuc and Zheng Zai both recognized the legitimacy of Ji Hongchang's succession. The opinions of others are not important. At best, it is the icing on the cake.

    On the eighth day of November, Ji Hongchang officially held an inauguration ceremony. The heads of the three allied palaces came to congratulate him in person. Nguyen Phuc family sent Nguyen Phuc Shou¡¯s eldest son Nguyen Phuc Chi to observe the ceremony as an envoy., I am not worried at all whether Lang Son Palace will take Nguyen Phuc Chi¡¯s birthday gift package to Nguyen Phuc.

    "Sir, the heads of the four clans and the two wealthy businessmen are already outside the door. Do you want them to come in and pay their respects?" Gao Fu started his career and once again served as the chief steward of Lang Son Palace. This time, his title of steward did not include the title of "waifu".  Prefix, high rise.

    "How much money did you receive as gifts to speak for them like this?" Zhou Shixiong asked without raising his head while sitting behind the public case in the main hall, writing something.

    "The master is joking. How dare you collect money randomly? These people not only sent gifts, but also presented the books to the master. Only then do you dare to speak for them." Gao Fu is not afraid of Ji Hongchang, he knows this  The new palace master is an easy-going young man. As long as you do things well, he doesn't mind if you are greedy for a little money.

    "Registration book? Who gave them the idea?" Zhou Shixiong put down his pen, stretched, and said with a smile, "It must have been the old trickster Nong Xiaogao who came up with it. Others don't have this idea. Pass it in."

    After Son Ngoc Minh became the commander of the army, under the operation of Nguyen Phuc Bao, the Khmer people on the mountain and the foot of the mountain were merged. Cholb became the clan leader, and the Khmer people became the largest clan in Lang Son Province.  He was the one walking in the front.  Followed closely was Nong Hieu Chi, because he was the first to surrender to Nguyen Phuc Bao. Although the Dai ethnic group was now in dire straits, they still squeezed out the Nong ethnic group and the Chinese ethnic group to become the second largest ethnic group in Lang Son Province.

    Nong Baishui, the leader of the Nong tribe, is about thirty years old and is the newly appointed leader. The old leader passed away some time ago and he is the eldest grandson of the old leader.  The actual power of the Nong clan ranks second in Lang Son Palace, and they can only rank third in front of the palace lord. It is really because they have no discernment.

    The fourth one is naturally the Hua clan. The Hua clan has no clan leader. Lin Junqing is the current chief elder, and it looks like he won¡¯t live long.

    The two wealthy businessmen are both relatives of Nguyen Phuc Bao. One is Nguyen Phuc Bao's younger brother Nguyen Phuc Kim Yong, and the other is Li Xiu's brother Li Manlin.  This was the first time for these two Zhou Shixiong to meet. It was said that they could become wealthy businessmen. It was because the wealthy businessmen sent to Lang Son Prefecture from various provinces sold their businesses one after another. They took advantage of them and became wealthy businessmen.  It is conceivable that these two are not capable masters.

    "Greetings to the master of the palace!" The six of them knelt down and kowtowed as soon as they entered the house without waiting for Gao Fu to sing. Zhou Shixiong was very emotional. Three years ago, these guys didn't even look down on his adoptive father. Now they treat him as a newcomer.  Officials don't dare to be disrespectful, which shows that the way of mercy is worse than anything else.

    "Get up." Zhou Shixiong let them kneel for a few minutes before raising his head to signal Gao Fu. Gao Fu shouted in his most arrogant tone.  The six panic-stricken bosses were kneeling, as if they were being granted amnesty, and they were tremblingly grateful.

    "Do you know why you are punished to kneel?" Zhou Shixiong asked, looking at the few people who dared not sit in full chairs.

    Several people quickly stood up and replied, "I don't know."

    "Sit down and talk. You have never dealt with me. It doesn't matter if you don't know my temper, but how can you be so rash about dedicating books? You must know that the entire Northern Vietnam Dynasty is watching Lang Son Palace. If I take office as soon as  If I just accept your books, what will other people think? Regardless of whether your intention in dedicating the books is good or bad, donating the books without the consent of this government is definitely not to please this government, you know!"

    Of course Zhou Shixiong wanted to collect these books, but he couldn't.  In this era, dedicating books was tantamount to becoming a vassal, similar to selling oneself into slavery.  There has just been such a big incident in Lang Son Palace. If these books are collected, it means that Lang Son Palace is all in the hands of the new owner, which will definitely scare many people.  Zhou Shixiong doesn't want to be in the limelight now, so a low-key life is his best choice.

    "Master, please forgive me. You guys know what to do." Qiaoerbu was so frightened by Zhou Shixiong that he could not speak. Nong Xiaozhi was more frightened at least, so he spoke out and confessed to Zhou Shixiong in time. Others  The people then knelt down and kowtowed again.

    "Sit down and talk. I've punished you just now. That's it. If you are determined to join me, you don't have to make such a gesture. In the future, you can help me manage Lang Son House so that everyone can live a good life.  That's the right thing to do." Zhou Shixiong sat in the leadership position again and was in a very good mood. No wonder some people say that only when something is lost can one learn to cherish it.

    "Thank you, Palace Master." Several people finally felt relieved and thanked him repeatedly.

    "You are the heads of various clans. It would be rude not to have an official position. This government has specially given you and me a ninth-grade governor. When you see officials in the government in the future, you do not need to pay homage." Zhou Shixiong knocked a few times and threw a bone over.  Turning these heads of family members into subordinate officials will make it easier to manage them in the future.

    "Thank you, Palace Master." These clan chiefs and wealthy merchants did not expect that the new Palace Master would reward them with official positions, so they kowtowed excitedly again. Zhou Shixiong was worried that they would break the floor tiles, so he quickly ordered them to kneel down and stop tossing around here.

    Gao Fu sent these people off and returned to the main hall, and said with a smile, "Master, these people are so happy that they insist on giving the little one a treat, and they received fifty taels of silver."

      "It seems that Gao Fu's housekeeper has taken a liking to it. How about you give me these fifty taels to make him famous? How about I reward you with an official position?" Zhou Shixiong saw Gao Fu's thoughts and joked with a smile.
