Taipusi Qing is also a high-ranking member of the third rank. He is not promoted quickly. He may still lack some professional ability, but it will be fine if he just puts it aside and sharpens it for two years. Besides, Xue Guoguan does not care about after-sales service.
Yaoji didn't bother to listen to his explanation, so he interrupted and ordered: "Okay, there's no need to elaborate, just follow Aiqing's recommendation!"
Ye Chuchun!
This name is awesome!
A famous second minister!
The frost and wind make it difficult for the old leaves to be tolerated in the fields.
When it rains during the Lantern Festival, all people complain about the early spring.
This couplet is the common people mocking his extraordinary ability to make money...
Liu Zhifeng was distracted by his own sex, and it almost turned into a self-reflection meeting. Yaoji had to correct himself: "Where did you just talk about? Oh, yes, the new official uniform. It seems that you are very resistant to it. I also feel that it is useless to say more. After all, practice brings true knowledge! Yan Jizu, after lunch, I will send someone from the Shangyi Supervisor to make you new clothes. Aiqing will wear this suit to court in the afternoon. For all you dear friends to appreciate!"
As a prince, if you have nothing to do, you can just play with the governor, how carefree and comfortable you are.
Having said that, even if something happens, you can still play with it. What can you do to me?
Ah~hahahaha...
Before the ill-fated governor could agree, Yaoji continued without even a moment's pause: "One more thing. Although Xiangcheng Bo Li Guozhen is the commander-in-chief of the Beijing camp and the right-hand governor of the Fifth Army Commandery, he doesn't want to make progress. He has been punished for his neglect of military equipment, corruption and bending of the law, which has harmed the people. However, the safety of Jifu is very important, and these two positions cannot be left vacant. I would like to send Sun Yingyuan, the chief soldier of the Yongwei Battalion, to take over. We will take advantage of the situation to prepare the Beijing camp and strengthen the military strength. Dear Sirs, Do you have any opinions?"
When it comes to the extremely important military power, it is not up to the chief assistant to recommend it. Yaoji can directly place his own people on it, and you can just cheer by him. If his claws are extended too long, he will be chopped off.
Theoretically, both the Governor's Office and the Ministry of War of the Five Armies must obey the emperor's orders, and because of the monarch's tight grasp of military power, the Governor's Office and the Ministry of War control each other and are not subordinate to each other. The Governor's Office of the Five Armies only has the power to coordinate and command troops but has no power to mobilize troops. , the Ministry of War only has the power to mobilize troops but not to command them.
In an urgent matter, Yaoji asked Babaili to rush to deliver the imperial edict to Hong Chengchou without going through the Ministry of War at all, let alone asking the opinion of the Fifth Army Governor's Office in advance.
Governor Hong Chengchou received the imperial edict and saw the urgent contents in it. Even if he did not get the seal of the Ministry of War at the same time, he had to lead his troops back to the court immediately, otherwise something big would happen.
That was 130,000 troops, the last field force of the Ming Dynasty. If the entire army was wiped out in the Jinzhou area, it would take at least five or six years to recover.
Even if the worst outcome occurs, even if the capital is lost, the organic withdrawal of these troops to Shandong can significantly delay the Qing army's southward movement.
Yaoji doesn't have the ability of other time travellers. It only takes three months to build a victorious army, which can beat the opponent's "Qing King Master" to shit. That's even more Yuri than Yuri...
The East Palace Guards that Zhou Yuji set out to form cannot be relied on in a short period of time, let alone confront the braids.
It takes one year to form an army, and three years to form an army. Without two or three years of rigorous training, if you dream of being able to pull out a bloody battle, the result will be a mess.
As for Zu Dashou's Jinzhou City, defend it as long as you can, delay it as long as you can, and retreat south if you can't.
For the sake of a Jinzhou city, 130,000 horses were lost. Whether it was a loss or a gain, anyone could calculate this account!
The previous matter was completely a trivial matter, and I couldn't get involved in it, but when it came to military matters, Chen Xinjia, the Secretary of the Ministry of War, had something to say. He went out and said: "Your Highness, I know a little about this person. He has good military management and is proficient in the art of war. , went south to suppress the bandits, repeatedly performed extraordinary feats, and once defeated the bandit army, the emperor praised him favorably."
Making a more objective and positive positive evaluation is one thing, but more importantly, on the other hand, if you object, choose one of the three fates of Liu Zhifeng, Li Juesi, and Lin Yuji, which correspond to becoming an official, confiscating your home, or eating locusts!
Even if you get the lightest punishment and someone intercedes, you still have to overcome the psychological barrier. After eating half a bowl of locusts at one time, Lin Shangshu is so happy that he hasn't finished his meal yet.
Xue Guoguan would not let Chen Xinjia be the Minister of the Ministry of War in vain. If Chen Xinjia did not sit on the ground long enough, it would not even be enough to get back the capital, let alone make a net profit.
"Does the Chief Assistant have any objections?"
If he is considered the first in command, then the chief assistant is the second in command of the empire. In view of Xue Guoguan's character, as long as he is given enough "dog food", he will be as obedient as a pug. Although he is not obedient around the clock, it is almost enough.
If this second-in-command is really talented and learned, he might be able to become the first-in-command if he works hard, like Zhang Juzheng and Emperor Shenzong. But expecting Xue Guoguan to compete with Zhang Juzheng is just a daydream. I am afraid that even he himself does not have such extravagant hopes. When he reaches Wen Tiren's level, he will be elated.
"I second what Chen Shangshu said!"
The prince was angry and had just appointed Liu Zhifeng to the official position. The new Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Punishment was recommended by himself.
At this juncture, Xue Guoguan would certainly not be stupid enough to get himself into trouble and directly interfere with this personnel appointment involving military power.
If the prince already has his favorite candidate, but he rashly reaches out to the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army, it may cause the prince's displeasure.
I recommended three ministers today. If I charged five thousand taels per person, I think it would have been enough.
After receiving so many benefits from the prince, it would be a bit unkind to be greedy.
Wei Zhaocheng, the left minister of the Ministry of War, and Li Rixuan, the right minister of the Ministry of War, looked at each other. It seemed that they had other ideas. However, due to the experiences of the three ministers before, they swallowed their words forcefully. Without a complete strategy and complete assurance, it would be extremely unwise to directly confront the prince.
Sun Yingyuan comes from the emperor's own army, and his resume does not have too many flaws. Exaggerating the flaws that are already insignificant does not seem to be very convincing. The prince may also see that he is deliberately finding faults. It is really not worth the gain, so we need to consider the long term. , look for another opportunity to start.
"If there is no objection, then it is settled!"
Yaoji is very polite to ask for everyone's opinions, but it does not mean that he is asking the ministers to agree with what he said. Whoever dares to make trouble will be rewarded with a big bowl of fried locusts. If you are still not satisfied, either Being promoted to an official position or having your home confiscated.
Honest officials get the treatment of the former, while corrupt officials get the fate of the latter. One is to go home as soon as possible, and the other is to hit the road as soon as possible. This can be regarded as each getting what he needs under the new situation.
The reason why the blame-shifting father was being played around by the ministers and he still couldn't deal with it was because he had insufficient IQ and he had no countermeasures.
If the ministers are not afraid of the emperor, what authority does the emperor have?
He talks like farts and still calls him emperor?
Yao Ji can't care how the blame-shifting father is bullied by the ministers. Anyway, he can't stand this coward. If anyone dares to take his own words as fart, then give it a try.
Compared with becoming an official, confiscating a house, and eating locusts, the real nirvana hidden in the prince's crotch has not yet been unveiled, which will make your whole family happy...
The ministers did not agree with the style of the new official uniform, thinking it was too unrestrained, and the discussion reached noon with no results. Yaoji was no longer anxious and directly announced the adjournment of the meeting for dinner. Lunch is braised noodles, and the braised sauce looks like the one that served the people from Yongwei Camp last night. It is just freshly made and definitely not leftover. Even if it is leftover, it will definitely not be enough to eat.
There are no spareribs anymore, too much meat, and you feel sleepy in the afternoon. If you dare to take a nap during the court meeting, or even fall asleep standing up, you are not far away from being appointed to the official position. However, the braised sauce and noodles based on lean pork, as well as the refreshing cucumber shreds are enough, and everyone can eat them. There are also various pickles as accompaniments to the rice.
The bowls, plates, chopsticks, and spoons used by each person are engraved with the name of the user. They are reserved for exclusive use and will not be eaten together. Even the seats are fixed. The names on the chairs of officials whose homes were confiscated and officials who were promoted to official positions will naturally be engraved with their names. When the chamberlains make changes to wait for new people to come and sit, the things they have used are disposed of and will not be used by their successors.
Although the common people usually eat Braised Noodles for lunch, the palace's cooking method of Braised Noodles is still very particular. Especially after the imperial chef obtained the recipe from the fairy world, the food he made was able to stimulate the appetite of all the officials, and each person would eat two or three. Bowls are a normal thing. Besides, if you don’t eat at noon, you really won’t be able to bear it in the afternoon.
The court meeting continued at 1:15 p.m., but before the topic of unrestrained official uniforms could be reopened, one official fainted from heatstroke. The reason was simply too hot, too much clothing, and not moving in place for two consecutive days. After standing for a long time, my physical strength was exhausted, and when I was exposed to the sun, I collapsed.
Yaoji sent the imperial doctor over to check, and then said with compassion for the officials: "I have sent people to build a pergola to escape the heat. It is expected to be completed tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. If you, my beloved, are exposed to the sun continuously, your body will naturally not be able to support it."
From now on, if you go to court every day, it will take at least five or six hours a day. Except for the generals, there are not many civil servants who can resist. It is estimated that those standing outside the palace and sunbathing will be burned.
Shenzong was influenced by his godfather Zhang Juzheng and never fell in love with the court from the beginning to the end. Guangzong, who inherited the great unification, wanted to go to court, but he had no choice but to lose his beauty. Xizong is also the master of Tianqi Tank. He has no interest in the court meeting, so he might as well work in the back mansion. Sizong is diligent, but the problem is that his IQ is in arrears. Without the help of Nine Thousand Years Old, the scapegoat father was tortured by the ministers once in the last court, and he still enjoyed it.
This is really a thousand times that I have loved you and abused me. I treat you like my first love~!
"I am deeply grateful, Your Highness, for your forgiveness!"
Xue Guoguan immediately led the ministers to thank the prince for his kindness. This was indeed a beneficial and harmless thing for the ministers.
It's not the hottest time of the year yet. If it's really hot, all the colleagues outside will be fainted by this method of sunbathing.
With a pergola, this is much better. Although it may be a tent without a private enclosure and not a fixed porch, it is still much better than being directly exposed to the sun.
