The fate of being disrespectful to the old man is so tragic. Since you dare to criticize me and are unwilling to eat locusts, you might as well just go and eat prison food. It seems that you won’t be able to eat many prison meals.
"Your Highness, I think Zhang Xin, the right deputy of the Imperial Censor, may be useful!"
Yesterday I formed a cabinet that is close to me, and today I was able to appoint two ministers. These two days have been really smooth sailing.
People are in high spirits when happy events happen, and Xue Guoguan looks happy, and his attitude becomes more and more respectful to the prince who knows how to repay his kindness.
The prince may be well versed in officialdom. As long as he complies with the prince's wishes, the prince will leave all vacancy matters to him.
In this way, the relationship between the monarch and his ministers can be greatly eased, which can be said to be a good strategy for uniting one's will.
"As long as this person handles official business and is strict with himself, he will be as recommended by the chief assistant, and the conditions for joining the job will be the same as before!"
As a prince, there is no need to ask everyone's resume in detail. As long as Xue Shoufu thinks it is suitable, he can try it out.
Anyway, the pot has been prepared, and the only thing left is to take the blame...
Zhang Xin happens to be from Ye County, where Yaoji plans to build a city and mine.
But this guy, like Xie Yijin who "doesn't serve the two masters", has once again set the lower limit of integrity for the world.
Among those who welcomed the "Master of the Qing Dynasty" there was also such a number one, a famous second minister in a certain history.
At this time, the eunuch outside the palace stepped forward and reported loudly: "Your Highness, Yan Jizu has given you the specified amount of money within one stick of incense!"
None of them expected that things would go so smoothly. They thought they would spend this morning watching the governor "catching wind and shadows" while dancing with his net bag. However, after Yan Jizu's previous failures, he gradually mastered the essentials of catching insects with his net bag. It was useless. A few times and you're done.
"Announce your presence!"
This is not a waste, he learns quite quickly!
As the saying goes: The governor catches bugs and makes a big difference in doing things!
"Your Majesty Yan Jizu lived up to his sacred mandate and caught a dragonfly and two locusts within a stick of incense, and they are already in this cloth pocket!"
Although the governor of Shandong was sweating profusely, he didn't care much. Returning in triumph was the right way. If it took a long time, even if he could complete the task assigned by the prince, there was no guarantee that he would not be rewarded with a big bowl of fried locusts...
Yaoji didn't care at all what kind of insect the governor caught, and summarized his previous decision to him: "Well, I don't need to read it. I believe what Aiqing said. I must have gone through some personal experience." After the experience, Aiqing also has a clear understanding of the efficacy of net bags, right? Just now, after discussing with all Aiqing, I decided that the imperial court would pay for the construction of one million net bags, and all of them would be distributed to the people in Shandong under Aiqing's jurisdiction. , to help me, Da Ming Zimin, defeat the insect plague that has been raging for a long time."
In Yaoji's strategy, even if Beizhili is spared first, Shandong must be stabilized first. If such an important strategic location is lost due to natural disasters, it will be difficult to recover it in the future. Heavy.
As long as this outpost for attacking the Qing army's territory is consolidated, the Liaodong Peninsula can be attacked by sea from here. It is very close on the road, and the Ming Dynasty navy still has the advantage. Even if the army cannot win, it can still run back.
If it doesn't work once, just do it twice. If it doesn't work twice, do it N times. Find a few more weakly defended places to land. The Ming army does not need to face the main force of the Qing army. They copy Mao Wenlong's tactics, which is to rob, burn, and cause disaster. you!
The coastline of the Liaodong Peninsula is extremely winding and there are many islands. The Qing army is extremely powerful if it wants to achieve a comprehensive defense.
The Ming Navy's navy was flexible and could launch attacks around the clock in the summer, gathering thousands of troops to focus on one place.
Madan!
No matter how useless his men are, if thousands of fully armed foot-picking idiots go to attack a few villages, why can't they be defeated?
There is no money and no food?
If there is no food, don’t you girls have it?
No matter what it is, as long as you can grab it on the ship, you can exchange it for cash!
If you throw away this palace's pot, don't even think about Huang Taiji's pot...
Yan Jizu no longer wanted to go out to catch insects, and hurriedly thanked him: "I have been using this thing for a long time, and I deeply feel that although this thing has a simple structure, it is very powerful. Even dragonflies cannot escape from the net, and it is extremely fast to catch locusts. Your Highness is so kind to the people of Shandong." People, I have nothing to repay, so I would like to thank the holy grace for the millions of people in Shandong!"
Yesterday, we implemented the policy of using work to build cities, mines, and salt fields, and today we plan to distribute one million net bags to fight the locust plague. In this way, the prince is quite kind to himself, and he has never heard that his land has received such a rich gift.
With these favorable government decrees and a lot of money, he went back to take up his post, and finally his stay in the Ministry of Punishment's prison was not in vain.
But Yan Jizu had lived in that place once, and he didn't want to live there a second time in his life. God knows whether he could come out alive.
After hearing this, the flatterer became bored. Yaoji waved his hands calmly: "Yan Aiqing, please forgive me without paying any courtesy. As the prince, it is my duty to save the people from fire and water. I watch the love." You are sweating a lot, is it because the weather is hot and you wear too many clothes?"
This guy had exercised too much just now and was fat. When he came in to report, he was already sweating down his face. When he thanked him, his sweat dripped onto the floor in the hall.
Yan Jizu didn't know the meaning of the prince's question. For the sake of safety, he hurriedly made a self-examination: "I have always been lazy, so I am fat and weak, which leads to constant sweating. From tomorrow on, I will definitely cultivate my body and mind and exercise frequently!"
The prince only allowed himself to catch one dragonfly and two locusts within one stick of incense. If the number doubled, something big would happen. With my slightly fat figure, I'm afraid I won't be able to recover until the afternoon.
If they can't communicate, the consequence will be eating a big bowl of fried locusts. Yan Jizu was scared when he thought of this...
"It doesn't matter, the weather is hot and hot. Not to mention that Yan Aiqing just caught insects, all the ai Qings in the palace will be sweating even if they run around the square outside the palace twice. The hot weather is one thing, and the thick court clothes are another. Let's do it like this , I gave you two sets of new clothes, but in the sweltering heat, the wet clothes wrapped around you taste rancid."
Not only Baiguan, but also Yaoji had to wear two layers of clothes on such a hot day, wrapping them up like rice dumplings, which was extremely uncomfortable.
Although the palace maid was fanning her tightly behind her, the air inside her clothes could not circulate easily, and there were many people standing in front of her, so Yaoji continued to sweat.
Yan Jizu was said to be extremely embarrassed, but it was indeed the case. Everyone wore at least two sets of clothes, inside and outside. After sweating all morning, in the afternoon, whenever there was a slight breeze, the hall was filled with the smell of the sweat of a group of big men. .
It's not summer yet. By then, coupled with some people's sweaty feet, the smell is beyond imagination. Yaoji thinks that his office environment is almost the same as that of ordinary people outside the imperial city. In terms of taste, it is basically the same. Luzi's - strong and tangy!
If I don't change this, then I really can't live. Such a "kind and cute" little newbie will be suffocated to death by a group of "full of vitality" idiots sooner or later...
"I thought that the weather would be so hot even before summer arrives, and all the civil and military officials would already be sweating. If it is extremely hot, and all of you dear ministers come to court and wear such thick court clothes, you will definitely feel extremely tormented. I would like to do this for all the officials. The official has made two sets of cool and refreshing summer clothes. I wonder what you all think of it? Come to the court and circulate the clothes pattern I made to you all!"
Keeping you cool is secondary. The main thing is that I'm afraid that I will die from the smell of cumin armpits and stinky feet. That will set a historical record for crossing the world.
This topic is much easier than being greedy for ink. Everyone can speak freely. As long as the price is not expensive, any suggestions can be considered.
In the Ming Dynasty, civil and military officials were all issued the same style of clothing regardless of their variety, and were divided only by grade.
Official uniforms are divided into court uniforms, official uniforms, regular uniforms, and official uniforms...
Court uniforms are the most formal official uniforms and are only worn during major festivals, presentations, imperial edicts, and transmissions. The Chiluo robe on the upper body is a slight modification based on Hanfu. The beam crown on the head is a symbol of different grades (it means that wearing the hat is like being pierced through the brain). The first grade has seven vertical beams.
In addition, there is also a derivative type of court dress, which is the "public court dress", which is the plus luxury version of court dress. It is the court dress worn by meritorious people after they are knighted. Its main feature is the "general commander's helmet" equipped with face shields on both sides, inlaid with gold rims and painted with splendid patterns. There is also a spiral lightning rod on the helmet, with a red tassel inserted at the top!
The official uniform is what all the officials wear when they pay homage to the prince. Of course, you can wear it even if you don't pay homage. Because there are no patches on the chest, everyone's clothes are almost the same. Except for a few ministers and ministers who have nothing to do, Yaoji has to wear it. Without Yang Jinchao reminding them, it would be difficult to tell who is who and what level the other party is.
This is due to the fact that the marks used to distinguish grades in the public server are fancy. The first rank uses large single flowers with a diameter of five inches, the second rank uses small single flowers with a diameter of three inches, and the third rank uses two inches of loose flowers without branches and leaves. It is called How can Yaoji have time to look at the flowers with his designs that deceive his grandson? Therefore, public uniforms are far less easy to identify than regular uniforms.
Regular uniforms are the official uniforms that officials wear when working in the yamen. They are well-known because of the chest patch. Civil servants are naturally the first-grade crane, the second-grade golden pheasant, and the third-grade peacock. If everyone wears it to go to court, they will wear the fourth-grade uniform according to their rank. Yunyan and Buzi are all waiting outside the palace. If they are not summoned, Yaoji will not be seen for the time being.
The gift suit is a python suit. The pattern of the giant python on the clothes is actually similar to that of a dragon, so it is highly praised by the losers. Anyone who has made great achievements or is favored by the emperor, whether he is an official or a servant, will beg the emperor to give him a python suit. Even if you don't wear clothes, hanging them at home will exude supreme glory...
Everyone wears the same public clothes, not to mention people. Yao Ji is far away and can’t even tell each other’s rank. It’s so hot and I’m embarrassed to ask everyone to wear regular clothes. Last night I saw Xi’er’s new clothes. Clothes, I came up with this idea after thinking about it.
"Your Highness is kind and considerate of your ministers!"
Xue Guoguan hasn't thought about the suggestion for a new official uniform yet, but he doesn't delay in flattering him first.
