The heat of summer has been blown away by the golden wind that keeps blowing, and it has come to mid-September, the fourth year of the Great Ming Dynasty. During this period, Tang Feng and other generals in Liaodong were paying attention to two things, but none of these two things that made them worry about at all times happened as they expected. One thing was the reaction of the Jurchens. When they thought that the Jin army, who had lost Jinzhou City and defeated by them while defending the city, would not give up. With the Jurchens' personality, they would definitely send troops to attack again in a short time. Therefore, during these days, Liaodong was ready to fight with the enemy at all times, but they did not wait for the Jin soldiers and soldiers, and they did not hear any news from them again.

Although the Jin soldiers did not invade this time, the arrangements of the upper and lower parts of Liaodong were a little lost, but this was not a good thing. But another thing that could not satisfy the soldiers' wishes was not so good, that is, who should fill the gap in the Liaodong rule? It was similar to Tang Feng's idea. Many people thought that when Wang Huazhen died, the court would regain Sun Chengzong when there was no one available for a while, and he would return to guard Liaodong. However, this was beyond everyone's expectations. For more than a month, the court had only scolded the generals for not knowing to protect the commander, and then there was no future. He did not mention who would take over the position of Liaodong rule. Fortunately, Tang Feng's position in the hearts of the soldiers has been improved, and he also showed some of his talents in the battle of Jinzhou, so he could take on all his responsibilities temporarily, but this did not last long. After all, he did not have a reputation.

If the reputation is not right, the words are not right, and if the words are not right, the things will not be done. For a region like Liaodong with an important strategic position, it is indeed inappropriate that there is no legitimate commander. Tang Feng, Yuan Chonghuan and others have really complained for a long time, but since the court did not give orders, they had no choice but to wait like this, and it took more than a month to wait.

Standing in the yard, looking at the sunset in the sky, Tang Feng had a gentle smile on his lips. He shrank into his sleeves and held a letter, which was written by Liu Hui from Beijing. Originally, Tang Feng did not understand the meaning of "a letter from home is worth ten thousand gold" written in the poem of Lao Du, but now he understands it. For a soldier who has been guarding the border for a long time and cannot meet his relatives, what else can care and greetings be more precious than his family?

After Liu Hui arrived in the capital, she sent many family letters to Tang Feng. In addition to her longing for him, she also used her daily trivial matters and some anecdotes in the capital to Tang Feng, so that he could understand that although he was not by his side, his heart was always with him. Whenever he received these beautiful letters, Tang Feng would always smile in the yard, think about the not-long time of reunion with Liu Hui, think about the collision that year, and the rescue by the river.

Thinking of the bow in the wedding hall... When Tang Feng was immersed in this gentle thought, a voice came over: "Sir, the court has a new order!" But it was Lu An who received a notice from the people sent by Yuan Chonghuan and came to report. When Tang Feng heard the news that he had been waiting for a long time, he finally arrived. He immediately walked out of his thoughts. While rectifying his clothes, he said: "But has the position of Liaodong ruler been set? Will Lord Sun rise again?"

"It's unknown how to do this humble position. Lord Yuan just asked him to send a message and ask him to go to the command post quickly." Lu An replied. Then he said strangely: "Sir, Sun Chengzong has a rift with Eunuch Wei and others. Why do you still want to let him come back to take charge of military power?" This question has been hidden in his heart for many days, and it was not until today that he asked.

Tang Feng smiled and said, "Yes, Sun Chengzong is our opponent, but you have always heard an old saying, "The cunning rabbit dies, the lackeys cook; the birds are gone, and the good bows are hidden." Isn't it? If he were not here, how could Eunuch Wei value me? So for the sake of his own consideration, I don't want Sun Chengzong to continue to hold military power in Liaodong so soon." Tang Feng had already thought about this answer earlier, because Lu An came to Liaodong because he was framed by someone, so he was deeply touched by this answer. This answer just happened to touch him. Sure enough, after hearing this, Lu An immediately smiled suddenly, and admired Tang Feng's meticulous thoughts even more. He did not realize that as he spent more and more time with Tang Feng, he had slowly regarded him as his master.

When he arrived at the command post, Tang Feng saw Yuan Chonghuan and others among them. The one sitting at the top was a thin eunuch, who was holding a volume of imperial edicts in his hand. Seeing that this posture was more grand than when Wang Huazhen came to serve as the Liaodong magistrate. Seeing that Tang Feng had also arrived, the eunuch stood up and said in a majestic voice: "Under the imperial edict, everyone will accept the imperial edict!"

Tang Feng had never encountered such a grand scene. After a moment of dazing, he knelt down like others and waited for the eunuch in front to read the order. "In accordance with the will of heaven, the emperor's edict said..." A long imperial edict was read in the eunuch's ups and downs tone. These gorgeous words and neatly and confrontational words made Tang Feng's head wide. But he could still judge that the true meaning of the imperial edict had not yet come out, so he could only continue to listen with his spirit and energy. Until he heard the eunuch chanting, "The land of Liaodong is the gateway to the country. We must be careful. Now, Gao Di, the Minister of War, is appointed as the governor of Liaodong, to command all military and political affairs. I hope that all the ministers and employed should assist us carefully to strengthen our country's power and strengthen our border defense...", he realized the central idea in the imperial edict.

When Tang Feng thought that the last person who came was still not Sun Chengzong, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed. After killing Wang Huazhen, he came a Gaodi. I wonder if this person is also a guy who doesn't know military affairs and can only point fingers. Should he think of another way to get Sun Chengzong back to Liaodong?

Tang Feng and the Liaodong generals who listened to this order were very unhappy, but they did not know that the eunuch party and mass officials who were in charge of the government for this position of Liaodong's rule were also very much in painstaking.

When Wang Huazhen's body was transported to the capital, it did not attract much attention. He was originally a pawn of the eunuch party, and they had a sense of precaution against it before. Since they died, it would be fine. But then they found a problem in front of them, that is, who should be sent to replace Wang Huazhen? The truly powerful people in the eunuch party could not be willing to go to Liaodong to suffer this. Others were still inexperienced and could not suppress the generals in Liaodong at all, so they had no choice but to drag the matter down.

However, the land of Liaodong was too critical. Even if the eunuch party members did not make a decision, the Emperor Tianqi, as the emperor, would not completely ignore it. Although he was obsessed with building some more exquisite woodworking objects recently. After waiting for two days, there was no reply. Tianqi simply called Wei Zhongxian into the palace and ordered him to choose a suitable candidate as soon as possible. If there was no suitable person, he would restore Sun Chengzong who was already living in the capital. Obviously, after this period of calm, Tianqi had already doubted the previous impeachment of Sun Chengzong by the eunuch party. In addition, he had a deep teacher-student relationship with Sun Chengzong, so he quickly re-trustred Sun Chengzong.

After hearing Tianqi's words, Wei Zhongxian was also a little anxious. He finally pulled Sun Chengzong from the position of Liaodong's military power. How could he let him go back again? So that night he gathered his most trusted accomplices to ask them for advice. After hearing Wei Zhongxian's retelling the emperor's meaning, the eunuchs naturally did not dare to take it lightly anymore. One of them whispered: "Duke, the following officials think that there is a very suitable candidate in Liaodong now, that is, the military supervisor Tang Feng. I heard that he has received the attention of many generals in Liaodong and is promoted by his father-in-law. I think if he holds Liaodong's military power because of his father-in-law, he will definitely be grateful to his father-in-law and do his best to do his best."

"Well, what Chen Wei said is not without reason. Our family actually forgot about this person. He has been in Liaodong for some time and just promoted him to use it for us." Wei Zhongxian said in agreement.

"Don't be honest!" As soon as he saw Wei Zhongxian, he was about to make a conclusion. Cui Chengxiu hurriedly stopped him, "This Tang Feng is indeed ours, and he has some foundation in Liaodong. However, he is just a small official from a county magistrate. Now he is just a sixth-rank military supervisor. In less than a year, he promoted him to a senior official to a second-rank official. I am afraid that others will disobey. The officials think this method is absolutely not feasible!"

Some other officials who were either jealous of Tang Feng like Cui Chengxiu, or were really moved by his words also echoed: "Mr. Cui is right. Tang Feng is not enough to convince the public, whether he is old or experienced, or talented, prestige is enough to convince the public. He is indeed not the candidate for the Liaodong Strategies." Seeing that everyone said this, Wei Zhongxian said that Tang Feng was not a sudden rise, so he listened to their intentions and eliminated Tang Feng. Until then, Cui Chengxiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, he could not let Tang Feng become a backbone of the eunuch party so quickly, thus threatening his position.

Then everyone mentioned some candidates, but they were not trustworthy people of the eunuch party, and they were even somewhat unmistakable with the Donglin party, or had difficulty conquering the public with the qualifications, and it was impossible to suppress the more than 100,000 troops in Liaodong. For a moment, everyone didn't know what to do. Wei Zhongxian was also a little impatient and said coldly: "Now the power of the court is in our hands. Is it so troublesome to choose such a Liaodong governor? It's really unreasonable to worry about other people's ideas! If there is no suitable candidate, our family will let Tang Feng take this position. Although he lacks qualifications, as long as our family supports him in the future, there will be no problem."
