He Yi smiled helplessly and said: "You are asking this, Mr. Cheng, because you are pretending that the imperial edict is to destroy the nine tribes. How many heads are there in Wansheng to dare to make this joke with you?"
Cheng Jing nodded involuntarily, that's right, no one would be crazy enough to make a joke by pretending to preach an imperial edict.
But Cheng Jing still had questions: "I used to be a eunuch in charge of the internal affairs department, and then I was transferred to Nanjing as a deputy guard eunuch. Can I just jump to the position of a doctor in the Ministry of War?"
He Yi replied: "It's not that Mr. Cheng doesn't understand the Holy One. Since the Holy One dares to issue an edict, he can naturally smooth out the joints involved. Mr. Cheng can just go to the Ministry of War and take up his post with peace of mind.
Let's close the door and say something from the bottom of our hearts. Now, from the minister to the minister, to the doctor, almost all the people in the Ministry of War are close followers of the emperor.
Therefore, when Duke Cheng takes up a post in the Ministry of War, you don’t have to worry about anything. Your Majesty will take care of everything that needs to be considered. "
When Cheng Jing heard this, he no longer hesitated. He hurriedly turned to the west and knelt down, thanking Heaven with tears in his eyes.
Cheng Jing finally calmed down and sat down with He Yi again.
Cheng Jing calmed down and asked curiously: "Xueshi He, why did the Holy One suddenly think of vindicating me?"
Cheng Jing also knew that the emperor would not give him such a great favor without any reason. It was too unexpected.
Therefore, there must be someone noble behind the matter. Cheng Jing needs to understand the cause and effect. This huge favor must be repaid.
He Yi said with a smile: "Master Cheng, don't worry too much. It was Princess Qi who stood up for you and suggested to the Holy One that you regain your status as a civil servant.
The Holy Spirit follows what is good, so he should immediately accept it.
But as long as Mr. Cheng understands it in his heart, there is no need to tell others about it. After all, once word spreads, it is inevitable that some young people will slander the princess for interfering in political affairs. "
Hearing this, Cheng Jing nodded repeatedly and told Cheng Kai: "The kindness that the Holy Lord and the Princess have shown to my father and son is as high as the mountains and as deep as the sea. My son must be loyal and sincere in order to repay your kindness."
After thanking the saint for his grace, Cheng Jing asked curiously: "May I ask Bachelor He, who are the more than ten maids and servants you brought?"
He Yi said with a smile: "Oh, you know Li Jin? The Holy One sent him to North Korea before and bought back more than a thousand maids and servants. The dozen or so people brought by Wan Sheng are the same ones that the Holy One and the princess bought back from Li Jin He was selected from among the people and specially given to Brother Shunqing."
Cheng Jing had questions again: "Did the Holy One specifically give it to Xiao'er? Is this the case for other Jinshi as well?"
He Yi shook his head: "No, no, no, no one else has it. It was specially given to Brother Shun by the Holy One. The reason why the Holy One ordered Wansheng to come in person was to deliver the edict. The most important thing was to specifically tell Mr. Cheng that he must Pay special attention to Brother Shunqing's physical condition.
There are no outsiders here. Let me tell you plainly, Wan Sheng. The Holy Master is afraid that the younger generation will attack his cronies, especially Cheng Gong, one of the few former ministers of Xidi, so he must be extra careful. "
When Cheng Jing heard this, he frowned. He Yi's words contained a lot of information.
According to the Holy Spirit, if Cheng Kai becomes a Jinshi, it is very likely that he will be passed away at a young age?
According to unwritten rules, in most cases, officials protect each other, which is especially obvious among civil servants.
As for civil servants, this was the first time that Cheng Jing had heard of officials harming each other to the point of personal destruction.
Will the struggle between the two emperors rise to such a fierce level?
But Cheng Jing then thought about it and realized that the good thing was that the emperor really valued his father and son. In fact, after all is said and done, Cheng Kai is just an ordinary Jinshi. This year, there are many young talents in their twenties who have won the Jinshi. There is even a monster like Wang Xian who won the Jinshi at the age of seventeen.
The emperor actually gave more than ten maids and servants in one go because he was worried about Cheng Kai's safety, which is really heart-warming.
And for fear that he would not take it seriously, He Yi was specially sent to deliver the message in person.
Just because He Yi is one year younger than his own son shouldn't make him look down upon. He is not only the emperor's favorite bachelor of Youchunfang and the son-in-law of An Guogong Xu Heng, but most importantly, he is also the unofficial mentor of the newly born prince. There is great hope that one day he will be promoted to become an emperor master.
Anyone who is not blind can see that the emperor is sincerely cultivating He Yi as his future chief minister.
Cheng Jing also took another look: the emperor was afraid that a traitor like San Yang would appear again, which would harm the country and the people, so as soon as he ascended the throne, he tried his best to cultivate an auxiliary team for the future prince.
He Yiman was only twenty-five years old, so he could have been with the newly born prince for forty or fifty years.
There is also Wang Xian, who has just been awarded the Jinshi. He is only seventeen years old and is the first among the top two in the emperor's hand-picked list. I am afraid that he will soon rise to prominence.
The more Cheng Jing thought about it, the more he forced He Yi to stay for lunch. After the guests and hosts had enjoyed themselves, they sent him off enthusiastically.
…
Huang Pu was not so comfortable. Because he had been in and out of the Wala camp many times as an envoy, the task of dealing with the leaders of Wala this time fell on Huang Pu.
Huang Pu came to the small courtyard where Boyan Timur was imprisoned. Boyan Timur had been on tenterhooks for the past two days, fearing that he would be punished by the emperor.
When I saw Huang Pu arriving today, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
The two parties are old acquaintances and had a good relationship before. At first, Boyan Timur humbly asked for advice, and Huang Pu gave some advice, so Boyan Timur was able to lead his troops to leave Beijing early and finally return to Oara safely.
In line with the principle of keeping a tightrope, Huang Pu first read out the emperor's will, and then pretended to 'reprimand' Boyan Timur, which was considered to have completed the errands assigned by the emperor.
Then he comforted Boyan Timur and Amasangchi successively, and after comforting them, they were officially declared free.
…
It wasn't until night that Zhu Qiyu dragged his exhausted body back home, then lay on the bed and stopped moving.
It was going well, but because of the fuss made by Zhu Qizhen's family, another day was wasted.
Zhu Qiyu was lying on the bed and began to take stock and summarize the recent situation.
First of all, the purpose and key word of all my recent actions is two words: reconciliation.
A temporary reconciliation was achieved with Wala: Ye Xian had already caught them, Boyan Timur and Amasangchi were let go, the blockade on their tribes was lifted, and tribute was resumed.
Reconciliation with Xuanzong's trusted ministers: Except for Sanyang who was officially denied, Yu Qian, Nian Fu, Wang Ao and others were all given decent positions and no longer bothered others.
Reconciliation with orthodox trusted ministers: We should still reuse famous orthodox ministers such as Wang Ji and Chen Mao, and no longer be suspicious of each other and internal friction.
Reconcile with the old ministers of Xidi: completely rehabilitate and respect them, and put them into high use. Yu Shan and Yu Gang are also about to be promoted to minister-level officials.
Reconciliation with the eunuchs in the inner court: Even Zhu Qizhen's trusted eunuchs Jin Ying, Xing'an, Cao Jixiang, Chen Xiang and others were given enough dignity.
In short, those who could be reconciled were temporarily reconciled.
After the reconciliation, there will be a period of peace-of-mind reforms.
At the same time, this is also a stage of reaccumulation of contradictions.
After two or three years, Ming Dynasty regained its vitality after a certain period of recuperation.
By that time, the conflicts had almost accumulated again, and the war between the North and the South started again, and it was almost time for Cao Jixiang to rebel.
