If officials who want to accomplish something in the Chongzhen Dynasty have no corresponding talents and have not formed a scale, they will not be able to open up the situation at all.

Against the backdrop of frequent disasters in various places, serious land annexation, and the imperial power did not go to the countryside, the state's control on taxation has been continuously weakened, and any change related to the national economy and people's livelihood will cause serious trouble.

With the three-year temporary stabilization period, Emperor Chongzhen wanted to build and cultivate the political group of the "Imperial Party" and become the backbone of checks and balances in the court and promote the reform of the new policy.

The political group of the Imperial Party can come from all over the Ming Dynasty, with honors, powerful people, gentry, landlords, and poor families.

However, if you want to be selected into the imperial party, you will be either young or have a bad career in addition to being talented and loyal.

Young means strong ability to accept new things or new ideas.

If your career is not going well, it means you can calm down, accept new ideas, and induce changes little by little.

"Mr. Yan doesn't have to be so nervous."

Wang Chengen smiled and looked at Yan Yingyuan who was tense, and said as he walked: "This time the emperor summoned him, he was called to see you.

When we arrive at the Ganqing Gate, what the emperor asks and what Mr. Yan answers, but we must not forget the etiquette in the palace that we teach you."

"I'm sorry, Eunuch."

Yan Yingyuan exclaimed lightly, squeezed out a smile, and said, "Students are much better now, and students keep in mind the etiquette in the palace."

Seeing that Yan Yingyuan had recovered a lot, a hint of praise flashed in Wang Chengen's eyes. Although he didn't know why his emperor knew Yan Yingyuan from a poor family, Yan Yingyuan's performance was still quite good.

If an ordinary student was summoned to the palace for no reason to meet the emperor of the dynasty, he would be afraid that he would be silly.

Looking at the Ganqing Sect in front of him, Wang Chengen couldn't help but speed up. In the past few days, his emperor was either in Wenhua Hall or in the Military Affairs Office, dealing with various government affairs. Even if he had to rest in the night, he did not return to the harem. Just rest in the Ganqing Palace.

Although he stayed by his own emperor's side and served for not long, he had to travel back and forth to Silijian, inner factories, several imperial villages and other places every day to do what the emperor had told him, but Wang Chengen could clearly feel that the court was outside. The situation here is gradually calming down.

"Your Majesty...you have a rest and have a cup of tea."

Han Zanzhou looked worried, holding a cup of tea, looking at Emperor Chongzhen who was busy with Fu'an, and advised: "You have processed more than a dozen memorials, so it's time to take a break..."

"It's really long-winded."

Emperor Chongzhen put down his pen and frowned and said, "Don't I know how my health is? Don't you advise me at any time and bring it."

"Yes, the emperor's dragon spirit and tiger are fierce, but he still needs to rest."

Han Zanzhou smiled and handed the teacup, saying, "These days, the emperor worked hard day and night, and when he was tired, he would sleep in the Ganqing Palace. I am a servant..."

Emperor Chongzhen, who was drinking tea, listened to what Han Zanzhou said, and felt secretly in his heart. No wonder the emperors of all generations favored the close servants around him so much.

Under the feudal imperial system, whoever stays by the emperor for the longest time is this group of castrated eunuchs and eunuchs. After spending a long time together, as long as they can speak and know how to observe their words and expressions, they will definitely trust more.

"I, Wang Cheng'en, pay homage to the emperor."

As Emperor Chongzhen sighed, Wang Chengen's voice rang outside the hall: "According to the emperor's order, Tongzhou student Yan Yingyuan came to the palace to meet him."

‘Yan Yingyuan, who resisted the Three Dukes of Qing Dynasty, found it?!’

Emperor Chongzhen raised his eyebrows slightly, put down the teacup in his hand, and said aloud: "Come in."

Familiar with the history of the late Ming Dynasty, he knew that the heroes of anti-Qing emerged during this period from the Jiashen Rebellion to the several regimes representing the Ming Dynasty.

Yan Yingyuan, a native of Tongzhou, Zhili, took office as the Jiangyin Dianshi in the 14th year of Chongzhen. Before the Qing Dynasty launched a large-scale southward movement, no one knew the name of Yan Yingyuan.

It was not until the military groups of the Qing Dynasty flags headed by Duoduo that went south and attacked the Jiangyin area. The three anti-Qing Dukes headed by Yan Yingyuan united the people of Jiangyin, causing considerable casualties in the Qing Dynasty. Yan Yingyuan, Chen Mingyu, and Feng Houdunzhi

The name should also be left in history for this battle.

"Student Yan Yingyuan, pay homage to Your Majesty!"

Yan Yingyuan, who followed Wang Chengen into the office, lowered his head, tried to restrain his inner tension, and bowed to Emperor Chongzhen and said loudly.

"Quick...no gifts."

Emperor Chongzhen, who was calming his mind, reached out and signaled that under Han Zanzhou, Wang Chengen's surprise gaze, he stood up and walked towards Yan Yingyuan.

"Yan Yingyuan, I heard that you were invading the country and attacking him. In Tongzhou, a group of 100 people were organized to be brave and powerful?" Emperor Chongzhen smiled and asked, "Don't be so nervous when I see me. Lift my head up.

With such courage, you shouldn't be nervous when you see me, right?"

"yes."

Yan Yingyuan first bowed, then raised his head, faced Emperor Chongzhen's gaze, and said: "The students did organize a hundred brave men, but in the end they were assigned to the transfer team responsible for food and grass.

The Jianlu were rampant and dared to invade the important places in the Ming Dynasty. It was a damn existence. It was all because of the stupidity of the students and failed to make any progress in the imperial examinations, otherwise..."

"Don't be upset about these."

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "It seems good to be able to obtain the status of a student in my opinion. Yan Yingyuan, I have something I want to ask you to do.

If I can do it well, I can summon you into the Military Affairs Office to share my worries and the country’s worries.”

"I wish to die for Your Majesty!"

When Yan Yingyuan heard this, he didn't care what Emperor Chongzhen wanted to give him any errands, so he bowed and said.

"Only by living can I share my worries."

Emperor Chongzhen walked up, pulled Yan Yingyuan up, and said, "I want you to go to Fuzhou, Fujian to find a kind of crop that has been rumored. I heard that this thing is grown in Fuzhou.

This product is sweet and has a very high yield per mu. If you find this product, you will bring all the people who promote this product, together with the crops, back to the capital.

On the way back to Beijing, I went to Jiangyin and looked for two scholars named Chen Mingyu and Feng Houdun. If this matter can be done well, I will definitely reward you.

When I go to Jiangnan, I will give you a small banner official in the Jinyiwei to facilitate your assignment. However, you must know how to hide your name and write down what you see along the way and feel touched. After returning to the capital, you will report it to me.

”

"Here!"

He asked Yan Yingyuan to go to Jiangnan. It was the decision made by Emperor Chongzhen after careful consideration. First, he was looking for sweet potatoes to cultivate good varieties suitable for the Ming Dynasty. Second, he also brought Chen Mingyu and Feng Houdun back to the capital, and third, he was asking Yan Yingyuan to be good.

Let’s see what happens from the north to the south of the Yangtze River, what conflicts exist, and what are the local governments, so that I can better understand the gaps and problems between the north and south of the Ming Dynasty in the future.
