Before the Jingnan Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang enfeoffed his older and more strong sons to the north, and later generations often called these princes Kings of Sai. The novel was updated very fast and stable,

However, the endings of these kings are different. King Yan Zhu Di usurped the throne of his nephew Zhu Yunwen and ascended the throne to become the Emperor Yongle; King Ning Zhu Quan was swept by Zhu Di and rebelled together, but after the matter was completed, he lost the three guards of Duoyan and was thrown into the fiefdom of Nanchang, Jiangxi, and died in depression. Although King Gu and King Dai were still in Datong of Xuanfu, they had long become idle kings who were living a life of life. The first generation of Liao kings who crossed the sea to Nanjing in the second year of Jianwen was moved to Jiangling Mansion, Zhang Juzheng's hometown, after the Jingnan period. At present, the Liao king has been deposed as a commoner, so the title of King Liao is still empty.

Now, in the northwest corner of Guangning City, Liaodong, the Liao palace was only left with the foundation of the original under the changes of two hundred years. Because of its high terrain, people call it Wanzi Mountain, and it is spread by rumors, called Wancui Mountain or Wanzi Mountain. As for why such a Wanzi Mountain was used, no one in Guangning could tell the reason. Only people privately rumored that Zhu Zhi, the first Liao king, might have had a little strange ambition. Because this was the foundation of the former royal palace, even if the traces of the old days were gone, occasionally literati and poets came here to pay tribute. Even local scholars often chose to gather here.

After all, although there are joint tombs of several emperors and empresses of the Liao Dynasty outside the city, after all, you may encounter various troubles when you go out for a trip, and how can you be as safe as the city?

Liaodong faces Mongolia and Jurchens, and there is a martial spirit. The atmosphere of studying for imperial examinations is far less than that in the southeast, and even Henan and Shaanxi are more stable than here. Nowadays, when spring is in full bloom, the Wanzi Mountain is just a little green, and almost everyone is wearing swords. What they may not spit out is a sage, but the Liaodong general Li Dashui, who has not yet returned from Liaoyang, won a great victory in Gule Village, and which generals were assigned to a certain place.

And at this moment, among the five or six teams, the young man who was walking in the front reached the top, also turned around and smiled at the others: "There are so many governments in Guangning City that are shocking. In addition to the Liaodong Inspector Censor and the Deputy General Officer Office, the Liaodong Metropolitan Office is in Liaoyang, with the Liaodong General Officer Office, which is under the command of the left guerrillas, then Guangning Guard, Guangning Left Guard, Guangning Right Guard, Guangning Central Guard, Guangning Beiyu Duguan, Guangning Beiyu Duguan, Houtun Beiyu, plus the Liaodong Governor's Office, and the Censor Branch Office, all kinds of offices will occupy half of the city."

The person who spoke was Wang Fulin. After they left Shanhaiguan, the road was easier and the road was also easier. Compared to the previous marching roads that often crossed mountains and ridges, the journey was much easier. As everyone walked along the way, they saw that the posture of the forts and villages near the walls of Jizhen was even more than that of the villages. It can even be said that after entering Liaodong, normal villages and towns were not as good as those of this forts and villages. Among the farmers who farmed, nine out of ten were military-owned. Therefore, everything here was under military control. There was no prefecture or county structure at all, only various acropolis, or thousands of households, and hundreds of households.

And this experience was achieved after entering Guangning City.

There are six gates in Guangning City, east, south and north, east gate, Yong'an Gate, southeast gate, Ying'an Gate, southeast gate, Ying'en Gate, to the west, Gongzhen Gate and the west gate, to the north, Jingyuan Gate, and tall corner towers are built on all sides of the city. As Wang Fulin just said, Guangning City is densely filled with yamen, and the most magnificent among them is naturally the Liaodong General Mansion. Perhaps because it was established during the Zhengtong period, Zhou Gu found that the Liao Palace was a palace rule in the past. Therefore, the Liao Palace was not rebuilt on the spot, but was built in the southeast corner of the city. After repairing by a general, it is now incomparable in Guangning City.

However, the Liaodong General Li Chengliang is not in Guangning City now. This is not just because the newly established system in the first year of Longqing, which is exactly the same as the generals who were stationed in the autumn day of Ningxia, Shanxi and other places. It is set to be in the winter month, that is, November every year, the Liaodong General moved to Liaoyang to dispatch defense, support Haizhou and Shenyang, and return to Guangning in the beginning of spring; but because in October of the previous year, the Jianzhou Jurchen Commander Wang Gao colluded with the Tumote people and the Taining Guyang among the three guards of Duoyan. Li Chengliang personally led his army to attack. Although he defeated Wang Gao and captured Gule Village, he had not yet returned. Not only Li Chengliang, but also Zhang Xueyan, the governor of Liaodong, had not returned.

According to the information found after Wang Fulin and others entered the city, now, after Li Chengliang broke the Gule Village, he should be on his way from Liaoyang to Guangning. Since the master was not here, they were happy to walk around and dismiss the people and search for the news. In a few days, he and Xiaobei and his uncle and nephew of the Shen family transferred the doors of the various offices in the city together.

Among them, the Censorship Branch Office of Guangning City can be said to be one of the few yamen along the way with civil servants.

Wang Fulin and his party had just visited outside the inspection branch. Wang Fulin, who had experienced a lot and knew the operation of the government office, had a chat with the menzi for a while, and found out that the official position of the sub-scheduling road was full of patrols, Dongning Road, Liaohai, and also handled the military preparations for military farming in Guangning and other places, and was the deputy envoy of the Shandong Criminal Bureau. There were 27 words in total, which was so long. This was also the characteristic of many Ming Dynasty located at the critical junction of border towns, and the sub-scheduling roads.

At first glance, it seems difficult to understand that the official in Liaodong has the title of Shandong. However, just think about the fact that Ye Junyao's sub-scheduling road was also affiliated with the Zhejiang Censorate. This is one of the new inventions of the Ming Dynasty. The sub-scheduling roads in the north and south Zhili were sent to the inspectors of the major governors in the surrounding areas. Therefore, it is completely under the military control of Liaodong. The sub-scheduling roads, the sub-scheduling roads and the military preparation roads are sent to the Shandong Censors and the Shandong Censors. However, in terms of administration, it is directly managed by the Liaodong Governors. Moreover, the sub-scheduling roads lead the soldiers near Guangning, and the sub-scheduling roads lead the soldiers near Liaoyang.

Therefore, officials who are not polygamous and experienced are simply unable to serve as the dock in Liaodong.

In addition to them, there are also magistrates in Guangning City, magistrates in charge of grain, magistrates in Fumin, and ambassadors of the Taxation Department, and gurus of the Ministry of Revenue. They are all nominally affiliated with Shandong. The same is true for the three-class and six-house servants in these civil affairs offices. They are specialized in various taxes.

Chen Maoxue cares more about the government office, but Confucianism. At this moment, he answered Wang Fulin's words and said: "There are many government offices. Confucianism is very abandoned. There are almost no people in Guangning Wei School. Although students may not be all staying in Confucianism these days. But to this extent, the students are almost unaware of it, but it is really rare."

Hearing Chen Maoxue's words, although Chen Yourong didn't even get a scholar, almost all of his elders and peers in his family had been students. He could naturally guess what his uncle was thinking, and he couldn't help but retort: ​​"Uncle, that's not what he said. Liaodong was originally a military household, with few private households. In addition, the area was bitter and cold, and it was not as rich as the Southeast. Of course, there were few families who could afford scholars. Even if they were a student, they were not so free since they were in the military. Not to mention anything else, the current Liaodong general Li Dashui was not a student at the age of 40 and had no money to go to the capital to assassinate the military position of the hereditary commander. The result was that the Liaodong inspector paid the money to the censor at that time? Now when the flowers are blooming in spring, maybe those poor students from poor families still had to help work in the fields, which might be really abandoning their studies."

When Wang Fulin saw Chen Maoxue being beaten by Chen Yourong, he laughed rather than angry. He immediately thought of the scene when he met Wang Daoguan by the Fengle River. When Wang Daoguan was with him, he often contradicted Wang Daoguan. The two of them didn't look like uncles and nephews. After all, his nephew didn't look like nephews. However, Chen Yourong was always more like nephews than him. Sure enough, the next moment, Chen Yourong, who saw his uncle but smiled, quickly apologized. Chen Maoxue began to knock on his nephews. He watched with a smile and grabbed Xiaobei's hand, and quietly stepped back to a relatively clean big stone aside.

Since leaving Shanhaiguan, Xiaobei saw Wang Fulin's words and deeds in his eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange: "Since you entered Liaodong, you have been asking about the Marshal Li. Why is he afraid that he has a reputation for killing others and is difficult to get along with?"

"I am not going to work with this Liaodong Governor Li, two not going to be trying to challenge the Liaodong Censor, three not going to be a clerk to the road, three not being a separate guard and patrol soldiers to prepare for the road, I am just an ordinary young Jinshi, why are you worried about getting along with people?" Wang Fulin knew that Xiaobei was caring about him, but even if he was close to his wife, he couldn't say too much. He smiled and said, "Although he can't see Marshal Qi, he will be invincible with his uncle's reputation. But I think my uncle was also in Liaodong when he inspected Ji Liao and Liaodong. I was afraid that he would make a grudge but didn't tell me. Now I'm sure there is no holiday, so I can rest assured."

"Uncle valued you so much. If you really have a holiday with others, will you not remind you? You just lied to me with your eyes open and you will lie to me, and you won't say anything if you don't say it!"

Xiaobei snorted coldly in anger, suddenly his ears moved and his eyes quickly looked in the other direction. Sure enough, a group of four people appeared from the corner of a small path, just looking towards them. A young man in his early twenties, tall, high cheekbones, deep-sinking eyes were bright, and his jaw was filled with thick black beards. The other three people behind him seemed to be followers. When he saw the costumes of several people from Wang Fulin, he obviously frowned, and then walked straight forward.

"You guys don't look like Guangning natives, where did they come from?"

Chen Yourong was dissatisfied with such a condescending tone, but Chen Maoxue stopped him from rashly trying to answer. Seeing that Wang Fulin nodded slightly, it was obvious that he was asking the older him to contact the other party, Chen Maoxue did not refuse and immediately walked forward: "I am from Xuancheng, Ningguo Prefecture, Nanzhili. I failed the imperial examination now, so I took my nephew and a few friends to the border town for a walk, and I also traveled more."

"Friend?" People came and went to Wang Fulin and Xiaobei, their eyes fell on his and Xiaobei's swords, and then looked at the uncle and nephew of the Shen family. Seeing that all four of them were wearing swords, and the two servants were also carrying weapons, he sneered, "I heard that most scholars in the south were powerless, but they didn't expect to show off the sword when they went out. Can you use this sword? If you know how to use it, use two tricks to show me."

Faced with such a frivolous tone, Chen Yourong's face turned red, but seeing that Chen Maoxue and Wang Fulin were both fine, even Xiaobei looked calm and composed. He couldn't help but suppress his anger, hoping that his uncle would use some real skills to let the other party see. But to his surprise, Chen Maoxue actually untied the sword and sent it to the young man.

"I heard from the young master's tone. I should be a master of this. Why not let me open my eyes?"

ps: There are many statements about whether the Liaodong General Office is in Liaoyang or Guangning. I have explained the explanation (to be continued.)
