Chapter 390 389 Vaccination

That night, some people held banquets to celebrate, while others drank to relieve their sorrows, and all of them were drunk.

However, Wei Guangde did not go out again after returning home today.

This is the capital, the territory of the East Factory and the Jinyiwei. Going out to drink and celebrate at this time does not consider the feelings of the person in the West Garden.

The news brought by Chen Ju today is not only about the enfeoffment of King Jing, but also the emperor's approval of Yu Dayou's transfer to Guizhou as a garrison lieutenant general.

Originally, Wei Guangde wanted Yu Dayou to go to Huguang, but he did not expect that he would be kicked to Guizhou in the end.

However, Wei Guangde did not forget to send a message to Yu Dayou who was still in Datong, after all, the dust had settled.

Although he could not be directly reinstated and continue to be the general officer, the position of a general officer was not low.

In fact, the position of the general officer was only set up according to needs during wartime. Many provinces in the south where there was no war did not have the position of general at all, and all local garrisons were managed by the Dusi Yamen.

After dinner, Wei Guangde wrote a letter in the study and asked Zhang Ji to arrange for someone to send it to Datong and give it to Yu Dayou. Only then was today's work completely done and he could rest.

In the next few days, it was not known whether the Jingwang Mansion or the Yan family had accepted their fate and did not make any obstructive moves.

The memorial sent back to the cabinet by the Silijian went through the procedures smoothly. The Ministry of War received the documents sent by the cabinet and quickly drafted an official document to activate Yu Dayou as the left-wing lieutenant general of Guizhou and sent it to Datong. After receiving the memorial, the Ministry of Rites immediately contacted the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Households and the Jingwang Mansion to discuss the matter of the Jingwang's enfeoffment.

A few days later, Wei Guangde heard the news that after several discussions, the planned De'an Jingwang Mansion had a preliminary plan, which was to rebuild it on the original site of the Shouwang Mansion.

Speaking of which, the Jingwang was already the third king to be enfeoffed in De'an.

In fact, the Shouwang Mansion was originally supposed to be the residence of Qi Wang Zhu Youqi, but this prince left after a few years in the fiefdom. The vacant palace made Shouwang Zhu Youqi think about it and asked the court to change the fiefdom.

Now, the vacant Prince's Mansion is about to welcome its third owner, Jing Wang Zhu Zaizhen. The previous two princes were exiled without heirs, so it is natural that the feng shui of the palace needs to be adjusted.

The Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of Works all agreed to the reconstruction of Jingwang Mansion.

As long as it does not exceed the rules, the Ministry of Rites will certainly not care, and the Ministry of Households only hopes to save money. They will naturally not disagree with the other party's agreement to only renovate and adjust the feng shui of the palace. After all, most of the buildings will be preserved, and the Ministry of Works will naturally not object to new projects, and they hope that the changes will be as big as possible.

In short, at this time, the opinions in the court were surprisingly consistent, that is, to complete the preparations for Jingwang's enfeoffment as soon as possible and send him out of Beijing as soon as possible.

Now many officials below can't wait any longer, and they are looking for opportunities to contact Chen Yiqin, Yin Shizhan and other officials of Prince Yu's Mansion. Gao Gong's house is also crowded with people.

As for Wei Guangde, he has received a lot of invitations to visit him recently, and Wei Guangde can only pick and choose some to reply.

The sudden turn of events made Wei Guangde hesitate again. The idea of ​​being sent out when Altan Khan invaded the country has gradually faded.

Gao Gong also revealed the news to him that the war was won, so there was no need to worry about anything.

More than half a month later, a dusty big man walked into Wei Guangde's house.

When the big man entered the door, Wei Guangde got the news and hurried out to greet him.

"Uncle Yu, you have worked hard on the way."

Wei Guangde stepped forward and bowed.

The visitor was Yu Dayou who returned to the capital from Datong. After receiving the transfer order from the Ministry of War, he packed his luggage and said goodbye to Li Wenjin and Liu Han.

"It's not about hardship or not, it's just this fate."

Yu Dayou said, and when Wei Guangde gave up his position and asked him to go first, Yu Dayou waved his hand again, "This is your home. I am grateful for your help this time, otherwise I would still be eating sand in the border town."

"No, no, it's all due. Uncle Yu fought for the country at the border, and he deserved it."

Wei Guangde smiled hurriedly.

After the two entered the living room and sat down, Yu Dayou said again: "I have to stay in the capital for two days this time, I'm sorry to bother you."

"You're welcome, my nephew would love it."

Wei Guangde said hurriedly.

Yu Dayou still can't adapt to choosing to surrender to Wei Guangde, but he didn't choose to regret it. He said: "I have to go to the Lu family tomorrow. What's the situation of the Lu family now?"

"I have asked someone to prepare a banquet, and we will eat and talk later."

Wei Guangde smiled.

"After receiving your letter, Mingju also wrote me a letter a few days later. I haven't contacted him for several years. He told me that you asked him for the position. Damn, the Ministry of War actually transferred me to Guizhou."

"There are mountains and ravines over there. Those who were sent there before were not useful. The Ministry of War really can't find a famous general."

Wei Guangde also heard about the calculations of the Ministry of War. Guizhou is almost the world of Tusi. The officials sent by the court can only control the surrounding areas of prefectures and counties.

And most of those Tusi are not obedient to the king and make trouble at any time. When the officers and soldiers arrived, they immediately hid in the mountains. There was nothing they could do. In the end, they could only appease them.

In fact, Huang Guangsheng wanted to keep Yu Dayou in Huguang at the beginning, but once some things were done, it was difficult to control them later.

"That's fine. I heard that the people over there are pretty and pretty. I'm going to go over this time and see how powerful they are."

Yu Dayou went straight to him after entering the capital. Wei Guangde was still very satisfied. He had not learned the tricks of officialdom. Now he found an inn in the city to settle down, and then found an auspicious day to visit him. He still had the same temperament as a soldier, straight to the point. Such a person Easy to deal with and reliable.

"There's no rush. The generals in Guizhou are just a transition. It's really difficult for the toasts in the southwest to make trouble, but that's it. If it weren't for the complicated terrain there, they would have been wiped out countless times."

Wei Guangde smiled and continued: "When the time comes, I will find an opportunity to transfer you back to Zhejiang or Guangdong. I heard that the Japanese pirates have been making a lot of noise recently. Hu Zongxian can't control it. The most terrible thing is that they seem to have been beaten in Zhejiang. I’m scared, and now I’m moving my target to Fujian and Guangdong.”

Wei Guangde knew that in the end he went to the coast to exterminate the Japanese pirates, but it was not clear how he left Datong and returned.

Since in history, Yu Dayou was originally involved in the battle to exterminate Japanese pirates, this time he sent someone to Guizhou, and he had to find a way to transfer him to exterminate Japanese pirates.

However, Yu Dayou is from Fujian, and the court has a system. It seems that Yu Dayou cannot return to Fujian.

Zhejiang, let's forget it. It's under Hu Zongxian's nose, and I'm afraid something will go wrong again. Relatively speaking, teasing Yu Dayou to go to Guangdong is the best choice.

In the current Ming Dynasty, Wei Guangde knew only a limited number of people. Zhang Juzheng and Yu Dayou were the only ones who knew that Yan Shifan was finally beheaded. It is not clear how Yan Song died, but it seems that he was not punished.

Yu Dayou settled down at Wei Guangde's house and went to Lu Mansion to pay homage to Lu Bing the next day.

When Yu Dayou was in prison, Lu Bing took Lu Yi to see Yu Dayou. He was also aware of the direction of the court these days. Although he was a little surprised that Yu Dayou appeared in the capital so quickly, he was not surprised.

But no matter how the wind in the court turns, it seems that everything will be fine for the Lu family.

When Lu Bing was alive, he had always strictly prohibited the Lu family from getting close to the two kings. The reason was actually known to everyone.

In the beginning, the main reason why the Lu family was in panic after Lu Bing's death was that they were worried that no matter who came to power, the two kings would eventually be angry with the Lu family. After all, the Lu family was just the courtiers of Emperor Jiajing and did not choose to take sides. They even kept no contact with each other. attitude.

But soon after Lu Bing's death, news spread that the Lu family had turned to King Yu because he had had private contact with Wei Guangde.

After King Yu personally went to the Lu Mansion to express his condolences, the rumors seemed to be confirmed. In a short period of time, they became the talk of the capital after dinner, but it was not long before they were replaced by new gossip.

Well now, Emperor Jiajing has announced the future heir to the throne. The Lu family is on the side of King Yu. Not only does it have no disadvantages, but it has many benefits.

Knowing that Yu Dayou was temporarily living in Wei Guangde's house, Lu Yi was not surprised. Without Yu Dayou, Lu Bing would not pay attention to Wei Guangde, a new scholar.

After that, Yu Dayou had to find time to go to the Ministry of War to collect his official certificate and seal, and prepare to go to Guizhou to take up his post. But did this have anything to do with Wei Guangde? The day after Yu Dayou moved into the Wei family, Wei Guangde sent Zhang Ji to make an appointment with Gao Gong, Chen Yiqin and others. Meet.

It was still the restaurant near the backyard of the palace, but the only people who came were Gao Gong and Li Fang, the eunuch next to Prince Yu.

"The dust has finally settled. Come on, let's drink this glass of wine."

Now Gao Gong and Wei Guangde are the representatives of Prince Yu's Palace in the court, people who are looking for trouble. Originally, Wei Guangde only planned to invite Chen Yiqin from the Palace to come out. The main thing was to talk about precautions, but he didn't expect Prince Yu to directly ask the people around him. The eunuch Li Fang called him over, which shows that he attaches great importance to Wei Guangde.

Li Fang said with a smile at this time: "Actually, on the day the news came out, His Highness wanted to invite the two gentlemen to the palace to celebrate together, but he was worried. So, since Mr. Wei Guangde made an appointment today, Your Highness sent me here."

When Li Fang said the word "worry", she raised her index finger and pointed to the sky.

"That's how it should be."

Wei Guangde nodded and smiled: "When I heard the news from the palace that day, I just asked someone to send a note, but I didn't dare to invite everyone to come out for a gathering."

"I had a drink with my colleagues that day to celebrate. Although I didn't say it explicitly, everyone should know it."

Gao Gong also smiled at this moment and said: "Zhang Juzheng, he should have learned the news from Mr. Xu Ge."

"After being on tenterhooks for so long, I can finally feel at ease."

Li Fang smiled and picked up the wine flask and filled Gao Gong and Wei Guangde with drinks. Even though Wei Guangde tried to stop them in a hurry, he couldn't stop them.

"Qing Su, Shandai, I am pouring wine for you two on behalf of His Royal Highness King Yu. His Highness specifically told me before I left."

After Gao Gong and Wei Guangde were filled with wine, he poured wine into his own glass.

When he put down the wine bottle, his smile had already disappeared, and he said with a sad and angry look: "Shan Loi does not work in the palace, and I don't know the situation in the palace. Your Highness has lived a hard life these years."

Gao Gong nodded at this moment, then smiled and said: "It's all over, why do you still mention those things?" ’

"Yes, it's all over."

Li Fang also put away her serious expression and returned to a smile.

However, Wei Guangde shook his head inappropriately at this time and said: "Today I invited Brother Su Qing and Eunuch Li to come here, firstly to celebrate, and secondly for this matter."

"Um?"

Li Fang's smile gradually disappeared at this time, and she looked at Wei Guangde with a surprised face, not quite understanding the meaning of his words.

Emperor Jiajing had already made his meaning very clear. King Jing was enfeoffed in De'an Prefecture, so there was nothing to worry about.

However, Gao Gong on the side understood the meaning of Wei Guangde's words, which was to remind them.

"Yu Dayou came back from Datong yesterday and stayed at my place. Today, he went to Lu Mansion to pay condolences."

Wei Guangde continued.

Gao Gong nodded, then turned to Li Fang and said, "Eunuch Li, you are with His Highness, and all his food and use are handed over to you."

"Could it be."

Li Fang now understood what Wei Guangde meant. After the incident with Lu Bing, Wei Guangde specifically reminded them to pay attention to food and use safety.

However, at this time, Li Fang still felt a little incredible.

"Old Li, a journey of a hundred miles begins with a single step. It's time to play around and not make any mistakes, or you will end up with failure."

Gao Gong certainly knew the seriousness of the matter. Seeing that Li Fang was still a little unconvinced, he hurriedly reminded: "Now the only chance for a comeback seems to be that His Highness is ill. You must take this matter seriously. Shandai's reminder is very important. It's not time to relax yet."

Speaking of this, Gao Gong suddenly lowered his voice, as if he was afraid that his voice would be heard, and said: "Be careful of the desperate dog jumping over the wall."

At this time, Gao Gong raised Wei Guangde's ability to a higher level in his heart.

I used to think that this young man was okay. He not only knew the general situation, but also had a lot of ways and a long-term vision. Now it seems that the word "cautious" should be added.

Even more "cautious" than Prince Yu.

Up to now, he has not heard anyone say a word of reminder, not even Chen Yiqin.

Now, whether it is the people around Gao Gong or the people who stayed in the palace, they are in a happy mood these days, almost ecstatic, because they bet on the right bet.

Although most people thought that Prince Yu should take the throne, they did not lend a helping hand at that time when Prince Yu's mansion was in the most difficult time.

For a while, Gao Gong could feel the strong despair revealed by Prince Yu, and he was even desperate. It was only after he had the will to die that he gradually came out of this emotion.

Before contacting Wei Guangde, the entire Prince Yu's mansion seemed to be sliding into the abyss, and no matter how hard he tried to reverse the situation, it would not work.

However, it seems that it was after contacting Wei Guangde that the situation began to change.

"In the past few days, I was just as happy as everyone else. I only thought of it when General Yu went to Lu's mansion, so I hurried to remind everyone"
