After traveling through time, I became Han Zhang’s grandson?

The idea of ​​​​"clearing the land" across the country was decided by Han Ming and the other two in the evening, and the full consent to implement this work content was approved by Emperor Yingzong the next day.

After finishing the matters related to the Secretariat and the Privy Council, Han Ming rushed home without stopping and wrote down the additional tasks assigned to the next salt inspection team.

At this time, King Huan Zhao Ceying and his entourage had just finished reviewing the entire salt administration in the Jianghuai area.

Just as Gu Tingye was about to complete the rectification of the Xiang army in the Jianghuai area, Han Ming's secret letter was delivered to King Huan through Yongzeng's salt gang channel.

Looking at Han Ming's eloquent Thousand Character Essay, Prince Huan Zhao Ceying, Sheng Changbai, and Liang Han couldn't help but smile bitterly, thinking that this guy was going too far.

"What's this called?!"

"Just now, he was almost assassinated in the street because of the salt business, and now he wants us to survey the land. Isn't this asking for our lives?"

Although Gu Tingye suffered minor injuries due to the previous assassination attempt, it gave Han Ming and others as well as the deposed Emperor Zhao Zonghao an excuse.

So when the Bian Jing coup was over and the imperial edict arrived to promote Zhao Ceying to King Huan and Gu Tingye to the commander-in-chief of the Palace Front, they were still confused.

Only after Emperor Yingzong's appeasement order arrived did they begin to understand Han Ming's intentions and plans.

Listening to Gu Tingye's complaints, Prince Huan, Sheng Changbai and others couldn't help laughing.

"Zhong Huai, stop complaining. No matter how tiring the land survey is, it's the job of His Highness and me. It's not your turn as a Palace Guard to get involved."

"You should think carefully about how to write back to comfort Sixth Sister."

Sheng Changbai finally revealed a hint of mockery on his face and teased Gu Tingye.

As soon as the words fell, Prince Huan, Liang Han and others laughed out loud, looking at Gu Tingye, the new noble, who was a little embarrassed.

"This is the right thing to do. If Sixth Brother-in-law doesn't know where to start, I can ask my wife to comfort Sixth Sister for you."

Since Liang Han integrated into Han Ming's circle, he has also demonstrated certain ability in managing finances, which has impressed King Huan, Sheng Changbai and others.

"Forget it. If there's anything, I'll discuss it with Sixth Miss in person."

Gu Tingye was a little helpless. The fight between Han Ming and Zhao Zonghao had implicated several of them, and also made Sheng Minglan, who was concerned about him, a little worried and angry.

Whether it was Han Ming or Gu Tingye, both were deeply remembered by this young woman, and she even labeled them as "snakes and rats from the same nest".

Han Ming didn't care. After all, everyone saw through his character and he had been scolded so much that it almost circled the earth.

Gu Tingye is different, he really cares about Sheng Minglan.

Although there are not all the conspiracies and tricks in the original drama, the people are deceived so much that Minglan can see the other party's sincerity.

But now, under Han Ming's wanton interference, there is a trace of affection between the two of them.

Because of Sheng Minglan's anger, Gu Tingye's hair turned white with worry, and he sat in the local military office every day to curse Han Ming.

"Don't worry, Miss Sheng Liu is so considerate, she will definitely not bother with you too much."

Since Zhao Ceying was enthroned as King Huan, his whole state has changed, or it can be said that he is full of motivation.

Now the world belongs to his father and the future belongs to him. In the past, he dared not speak out about the various problems of the Song Dynasty, but now he can let go and do a great job.

Han Ming's private message of "land survey" and Emperor Yingzong's tacit approval made Zhao Ceying feel that the world was changing.

"Actually... I'm actually looking forward to her quarreling with me..."

Gu Tingye smiled awkwardly, which made King Huan and others stunned. Then they couldn't help but burst into laughter and pointed at each other.

"Gu Erlang, you are such a good person!"

Prince Huan Zhao Ceying clapped his hands twice and smiled.

"Your Highness, I think our progress is too slow. How about I bring the newly trained troops to support you, and we can survey the land openly and honestly?"

Gu Tingye was also a little anxious, wanting to finish his business quickly and return to Beijing to see his beauty.

Fortunately, Han Ming was not here. If he had heard this, he would definitely give the other party a thumbs up, saying "Zhong Huai is the one who understands me"!

"Father and Marquis Han suggest that we should be more cautious. After all, the assassination in the salt administration happened before. If we make a big fuss and cause a stir in the city, we'll be in trouble!"

King Huan Zhao Ceying looked serious and decided to play it safe first.

"In that case, His Highness needs even more protection."

Although Gu Tingye was extremely anxious, he also understood the priorities. He suppressed his inner anxiety and spoke in a deep voice.

"We can't have too many people, and since the salt administration has been thoroughly investigated, the local authorities will definitely be keeping a close eye on our whereabouts."

"In this case, it will probably be difficult to survey the land privately!"

Sheng Changbai immediately got into the state and analyzed their situation.

"Although it's difficult, there are still loopholes to be exploited."

Liang Han's mind works quickly now, and because he used to be idle, his ideas are always different from those of people like Sheng Changbai who have strict family education, and they are very unconventional.

"What's your idea, Rokuro?"

King Huan is now very fortunate that he has met a large number of talented people since he came to Beijing. Among them, the two he trusts and is most satisfied with are Han Ming and Gu Tingye.

Now he has a large number of so-called Han Party members supporting him, including Sheng Changbai, Liang Han, Wang Jiefu, Sima Junshi, etc.

"Now that the salt administration review is complete, we should leave Jianghuai and head towards Liangzhe and Huguang."

"But we have Marquis Gu among us. Marquis Gu needs to reorganize the local garrison. So we have the first excuse to stay in Jianghuai without arousing suspicion."

Liang Han put forward his idea with a serious expression, which made Sheng Changbai and Gu Tingye beside him nod with a smile, agreeing with him.

"Also, the person sent by Marquis Han today is the leader of the salt gang in the Jianghuai area. I heard he is the younger brother of Yong Zeng, the Marquis's personal attendant."

"Perhaps Marquis Han intended for him to come here to assist us in surveying the land."

"In this way, we can say that we have a complete understanding of the situation in the Jianghuai region and can deal with any situation."

Liang Han's suggestion made Sheng Changbai very satisfied. After all, for Liang Han, who once indulged in flowers, to be able to study hard and have his own political ideas was a sign of maturity.

"What do you think of Liu Lang's idea?"

Prince Huan could also see Liang Han's plasticity, but at present, Sheng Changbai was still the best civil official in his Prince Huan's palace.

"Your Highness, Liu Lang's method is feasible and relatively safe."

"Of course, in addition to this, we can also use the excuse of the court's new salt tax system reform as an excuse to openly and thoroughly investigate the government's inventory and account books."

Sheng Changbai quickly came up with a supplementary solution, which made King Huan and others nod in agreement.

"Also, since we have local people to guide us, we might as well split our forces into three groups."

Sheng Changbai seemed to have thought of something and quickly spoke to everyone.

"Divide the troops into three groups?!"

King Huan and the other two frowned and began to think.

"Yes, His Royal Highness Prince Huan will be the main commander along the way, and his main mission is to inspect the rectification of the Xiang army with Zhong Huai."

"This will effectively attract the attention of the majority, maintain apparent stability, and also allow Zhong Huai to better protect His Highness."

"The second route is led by Liu Lang, who will mainly use the reforms to the new salt law to distract the attention of the local government."

"Finally, Yongan and I will conduct a secret investigation together, taking them by surprise and thoroughly understanding the situation of the Jianghuai land!"

King Huan was very satisfied with Sheng Changbai's plan of "dividing the troops into three routes" and could not help but praise him highly.

"As expected of a talent that even Marquis Han praised and recommended, Zecheng is truly amazing!"

King Huan Zhao Ceying raised his thumbs in praise.

"Since that's the case, let's follow Zecheng's plan. We'll have a good rest tonight, and tomorrow we'll all go out and have a good fight with the officials and gentry in the Jianghuai area!"

Zhao Ceying's eyes flashed, and an inexplicable sense of oppression emanated from him.

Sheng Changbai and the others quickly bowed and replied in unison, "We will obey your Highness's orders!"
