Huang Xiao said: "I have almost learned the theoretical knowledge of flying. I will arrange for people to build a temporary landing airport on the way to Liaodong. When I learn how to fly, I will drive directly from the capital and arrive on the same day. You can go back and forth in a day or two at most!”
Zhang Yan said happily: "That's really great! This way it doesn't waste time. This arrangement is much better than the previous one!"
Huang Xiao smiled and nodded, and Zhang Yan said: "When the time comes, you can test fly first. Well, Zhen'er has said it many times, you have to satisfy her!"
Huang Xiao smiled strangely: "Sister-in-law, don't you want it? I have to satisfy my sister-in-law first!"
Zhang Yan felt that Huang Xiao's smile was a little weird, but she didn't know why. She nodded and said, "Of course I think so too, let's get together then!"
Huang Xiao chuckled.
At that moment, Huang Xiao explained the situation clearly and asked the guards to send Yueniang back to Dahuang Village. Yueniang sent the people out. The oil was the first batch and led the construction team to find an open and suitable place every two hundred miles along the way. A temporary airport will be built in the area and people will be stationed there.
The second batch set off with some other supplies and went directly to Dalinghe Fort in Liaodong, and agreed with Sun Chengzong on the arrival time.
Now, Liu Cheng and his wife are in Zhangjiakou, Liu Ping is in Tianjin Wei, Wang Ergou is in Liaodong, Chen Jiawu is in Shaanxi, and Zhang Fugen is in Huaiyuan.
Of the officers and soldiers of the two battalions A and B, only two sentries of the B battalion are left in the capital.
Therefore, Yueniang has to take charge of matters in Dahuang Village.
The training of the Beijing camp, the guarding of the palace, and the training of new recruits all dispersed the two sentry horses.
Fortunately, since the last bombardment of the capital, no one has jumped out to act like a monster.
Moreover, after the officials handed over the stolen money, they became much more honest for the time being.
Huang Xiao also continued to summon the knowledgeable people among them, and after frank and detailed discussions, many people changed their minds on the spot!
For example, Li Banghua, the left minister of the Ministry of War, was a native of Zhengu Village, Pangu, Jishui, Jiangxi. He and his father Li Tingjian passed the provincial examination in the 31st year of Wanli (1603).
The father and son encouraged each other, wore civilian clothes, and walked to the capital to participate in the examination.
Later, Li Bang became a Jinshi in Huazhong and became the magistrate of Jingxian County. He was an honest official and had outstanding achievements in governing the local area. He got an excellent grade in the assessment of the Ministry of Personnel...
During the clearing of dirty money at this time, Li Banghua had a breeze in his sleeves and emerged from the mud without being stained, which made Huang Xiao look at him with suspicion.
Moreover, Huang Xiao knew that this man would do many great things in the Chongzhen Dynasty in the future. For example, when Jian Nu besieged the capital, he led his troops to stand outside the capital to resist the enemy despite his illness, showing extraordinary courage!
In times of crisis, one month before the city was breached, he secretly informed Emperor Chongzhen with a wise vision, asking the prince to move to Nanjing to supervise the country. He also proposed that King Ding and King Yong be enfeoffed to Taiping and Ningguo to protect them. Beijing.
However, Emperor Chongzhen was indecisive, and when Guang Shiheng reported Li Banghua and secretly summoned others, the matter was leaked, so Emperor Chongzhen abandoned Li Banghua's suggestion!
If Li Banghua's plan had been followed, perhaps history would not be like this.
At least if the prince is in Nanjing, it means that the general rule is still there!
It is definitely much better than King Fu's kind of thing that can't support the wall with mud, and its appeal is not the same.
But history has no ifs!
After the city was broken, Li Banghua died heroically for his country!
In the Ming Dynasty, Banghua was posthumously given the title of Taibao, Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and his posthumous title of Zhongwen.
Later, Manqing gave him the posthumous title "Zhongsu"!
His younger brother, Li Bangmei, guarded Ganzhou during the Southern Ming Dynasty. When the city fell, he cursed the Qing army and died. He was a loyal man throughout the family!
For such loyal and martyrs, Huang Xiao was moved by emotion and rationality. In the past few days, he had been talking to these officials in the capital almost every day, and achieved very good results.
They also dealt with some officials, such as Li Chunye, the former Minister of the Ministry of War. He had committed a large amount of corruption and had other evil deeds. Zhang Yan and Huang Xiao ordered him to be executed and his house ransacked. Li Banghua was promoted to the post of Minister of the Ministry of War instead!
Li Ruogui, the colleague of Jinyiwei, Ni Yuanlu, Minister of Household Affairs of the Chongzhen Dynasty, Fan Jingwen, Minister of Industry, Meng Zhaoxiang, the Right Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Ling Yiqu, Minister of Dali Temple, etc. all died with Li Banghua. There were many such loyal ministers, and Huang Xiao only selected some talented and capable ministers. A representative conversation was held.
Huang Xiao still likes to use the people he cultivates, their thoughts are closer to his!
But the governance of the imperial court also requires these experienced ministers.
Therefore, after Huang Xiao and Zhang Yan discussed it, they took a drastic step and dismissed and convicted the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of War, and the original Shangshu among the six ministries.
And promoted Li Banghua to the Minister of War, and Fan Jingwen to the Right Minister of the Ministry of Industry, while Wang Zheng, a hero of Dahuangzhuang, was appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Industry!
Song Yingxing is the left minister of the Ministry of Industry! The two were appointed vice presidents of the Daming Academy of Sciences respectively, and Fan Jingwen was actually in charge of the affairs of the Ministry of Industry!
Ni Yuanlu was promoted to the position of left minister of the household department, and Meng Zhaoxiang was promoted to the left minister of the criminal department.
Ling Yiqu was directly promoted to the minister of Dali Temple. This man was selfless, strong-willed and dared to give advice! Dali Temple is also responsible for reviewing cases and interpreting laws. Ling Yiqu is a suitable candidate!
After some operations, the situation in the court suddenly changed.
Huang Xiao and Zhang Yan are no longer the only ones waving the flag and shouting with Zuo Guangdou!
After seeking Zuo Guangdou's opinion, he was appointed as Zuo Deputy Capital Censor.
As a result, Huang Xiao and Zhang Yan have relatively little free time!
At least you don't have to review a large number of memorials every day.
And under Huang Xiao's high pressure, the operational efficiency of the court has also been significantly improved.
Zhang Yan was very pleased with this and fully supported it.
After delivering the order, Huang Xiao sighed.
"It's finally a lot easier. Wait until Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, Zuo Maodi, Bi Maokang, Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Yuanhua and others gather in the capital. Haha, we have so many loyal ministers and famous generals, outstanding scientific talents, plus Dahuangzhuang's soldiers. Horses and talents, from now on, just lie down and have a rest!"
Zhang Yan chuckled and said, "You are just lazy!"
Huang Xiao chuckled, "I can't help it, I'm such a lazy person and I can't change it!"
Zhang Yan asked: "Why did you recruit big rebels like Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong?"
Huang Xiao smiled and said: "Of course they are useful. Great rebels are also talented people. Besides, they are about the same age as us now and are ordinary Ming people. In the future, they will have no chance to become great rebels." Oh, is my sister-in-law angry that they ruined Ming Dynasty?"
Zhang Yan smiled lightly and said: "That's not the case. They are not to blame for the demise of the Ming Dynasty. Even if there was no Li Zicheng, there would still be Zhang Zicheng and Wang Zicheng. I'm just curious."
Huang Xiaodao: "Let's talk about this later!"
Zhang Yan rolled her eyes at Huang Xiao and did not ask further questions.
"Nowadays, according to feedback from various places, the distribution of Daming Daily is very unsmooth. Many places have not even received it. Even if it has been received, it has not been disseminated. This matter is really troublesome." Huang Xiao said angrily.
Zhang Yan comforted: "Don't be anxious, the situation has slowly opened up now! Let's wait for time to ferment! Didn't Xiong Tingbi report to Fang Yizhi of Tongcheng and spontaneously publicize this situation just because he read the newspaper? There will definitely be more and more in the future!”
Huang Xiaodao: "This Fang Yizhi is a talented person! The Fang family in Tongcheng is not simple. His father is also a famous Confucian general in history. And this time they can take the initiative to reduce taxes in accordance with our policies. This should be rewarded. We have to spread the word!”
Zhang Yan nodded and said: "You can take care of this. Such ministers must be reused and rewarded!"
"Sister-in-law, there is something else we need to discuss!" Huang Xiao said.
Zhang Yan nodded.
Since the last discussion, Huang Xiao has gradually reduced the amount of time the two of them spend alone together, but this is unavoidable. Instead, it feels like they are deceiving others.
