In Wenyuan Pavilion, a distribution of power happened as quietly as in early spring.
Ren Hengtai, Xie Jin, and Gao Yangzhi, with their subtext hidden in a few words, tacitly and peacefully divided the power in Wenyuan Pavilion clearly.
As the first person to receive the emperor's oral order to lead the Wenyuan Pavilion and supervise the New Deal, Ren Hengtai was indisputably the first to join the Wenyuan Pavilion and began to lead the Wenyuan Pavilion and the imperial pavilion. experience.
As a person who has always been a member of the Wenyuan Pavilion and signed the imperial memorials, Xie Jin is also the second person in the Wenyuan Pavilion after Ren Hengtai as a walker of the Wenhua Palace and a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy.
As for Gao Yangzhi, the youngest feudal official in the empire, naturally he could only sit on the round stool with him because of his official qualifications.
On the couch, in front of piles of memorials.
Xie Jin played the role of distributing state affairs tasks. Top priority matters, such as today's changes in the court in Yingtian City and the northern border expedition that had already begun, were sent to Ren Hengtai in advance.
As for the affairs of the fourteen divisions and yamen of the Ming Dynasty, they were kept by Xie Jin, and the affairs of the Tianxia Prefecture and counties were then sent to Gao Yangzhi's hands.
Gao Yangzhi was a little uncomfortable with it, and felt a little uneasy looking at the affairs of local prefectures and counties that were ten times the size of Jiaozhi Road.
He entered the capital yesterday, and before he even received the decree, he was already in the Wenyuan Pavilion drafting matters submitted by officials from all over the world, which really made him a little frightened.
Even though it must have been explained in the palace, it does not comply with the rules of the court.
"The magistrate of Huan County, Qingyang Prefecture, requested the court to collect cotton, cloth and other materials to prepare for the winter this year and for the use of border residents and border military guards. I wonder how the court should respond to such a petition?"
Gao Yangzhi picked up the first memorial, read it from beginning to end, thought for a few times, and finally chose to ask.
At this moment, Jie Jin was lowering his head to review the votes and prepare to annotate the memorial in hand. Hearing this, he couldn't help but smile, then he stopped and looked up at Ren Hengtai opposite.
Ren Hengtai was reviewing the plan to fill the vacancies in the imperial court sent by the official department. When he heard the inquiries, he noticed the attention and put down his pen and raised his head.
He reviewed the situation for a moment, frowned and said: "Where did the border people and border troops come from in Qingyang Mansion? To the north are the Ningxia Guards and the Yulin Guards guarding the north gate of Shaanxi Road. Under the rule, the Anbian Station is also allocated food and grass by the Shaanxi Xingdu Si Yamen Supplies. Where did they get their faces!”
Ren Hengtai, who entered the Wenyuan Pavilion on his first day, had unknowingly acquired the majesty of an imperial civil servant.
Gao Yangzhi was still thinking about Ren Hengtai's suggestions and what could be regarded as official teachings.
Xie Jin looked at Bai Yuxiu on the side with a smile: "Bring him the memorial that Shaanxi Dao recently requested."
Ren Hengtai continued to point out: "It is not easy in the court, and the local government never considers it. The court needs to worry about the fourteen prefectures and counties in the world, but the local government only needs to take care of the people under it. If you can get more from the court, If they get one point, they will be able to live a better life and achieve more political achievements. At this time, the court must have a clear vision and know the local foundations, and cannot be fooled by them without a memorial. "
This is a rule of thumb.
He raised his head high, arched his hands and cupped his hands, which meant that he had memorized everything.
At this time, Bai Yuxiu had already taken various memorials from Shaanxi Province from last year to the present from the eucalyptus tablet rack and sent them to Gao Yangzhi.
He even carefully separated out several memorials from Qingyang Prefecture and surrounding prefectures and counties.
Gao Yangzhi took the memorial and after reading several copies, his face became a little ugly.
"Is the Qingyang Mansion the same from top to bottom? What is going to happen in March?"
Xie Jin chuckled: "No one else can complain about suffering. No matter whether they are suffering or not, they must always let the court know that they are suffering."
Ren Hengtai frowned, shook his head and said: "Let's make an endorsement on the ticket. Qin Tianjian mentioned it a few days ago that there will probably be a severe cold this winter. Please give me a discount of 30% to prepare for emergencies. If nothing happens, you can Send it to the border army on the spot for use. After His Majesty approves it, it will be reported to the Shaanxi Xingdu Division for notification."
After finishing speaking, Ren Hengtai paused and thought for a moment, then looked sideways at Jie Jin opposite.
"Spring Breeze, Ren Ge's words are to protect the country. You should learn more and listen more in the future." Xie Jin spoke softly and taught earnestly.
Gao Yangzhi followed the good advice and wrote down Ren Hengtai's voting opinions word for word on the memorial to Huan County of Qingyang Prefecture.
Afterwards, the three of them continued to vote for the memorial.
Many state affairs still need to be drafted one by one before the few remaining officials in Beijing enter the palace and sent to the Holy See.
Bai Yuxiu and Wang Xinling called the officials from Wenyuan Pavilion to come forward to serve them, and then they quietly exited the main hall.
"Senior, why do you think your husband gave up the top spot in Wenyuan Pavilion? This Wenyuan Pavilion was clearly the one that your husband walked in first."
When he got outside, Wang Xinling saw that there was no one around, so he frowned in the corner and started fighting with Mr. Bai Yuxiu.
Bai Yuxiu had a smile on his face. He was very satisfied with this junior who had taken over the official position he had vacated in the General Affairs Office.
Bai Yuxiu said softly: "It is an indisputable fact that Mr. Ren has been in Wenyuan Pavilion for several years, but what about being above the court? Ren Ge is always a bachelor and the minister of the Ministry of Rites. Your Majesty wants him to enter Wenyuan Pavilion. Is it because he wants him?" Falling behind Mr. So, where are the country’s rules?”
Wang Xinling curled his lips and said: "It should be Zhai Butang who has entered Wenyuan Pavilion, but it turns out that the person from the Ministry of Rites is here."
"Your Majesty...or rather..." Bai Yuxiu obviously paused twice, but in the end he did not speak out. Instead, he changed his mouth and said: "The speech that Mr. Ren Ge made in front of the Meridian Gate that day was probably his speech." Probably the reason why I can enter Wenyuan Pavilion."
The young governor was still unhappy, probably because he felt that his husband was the best in the world.
Bai Yuxiu got in front of her junior student, suppressed the words that came to her lips, and said comfortingly: "You have to understand, the height of the seat in the court is not necessarily the same as the seat. He said that in Wenyuan Pavilion now, Can you say that the old man of Ren Pavilion is the dominant one and he is the master of everything? If that were the case, Gao Yangzhi would not be able to enter Wenyuan Pavilion in advance without the will today."
Wang Xinling suddenly became quiet, and after a while, his eyes flashed with light.
When he raised his head, there was already a smile on his face: "The palace must maintain balance in Wenyuan Pavilion! The old master of Ren Pavilion is in charge of Wenyuan Pavilion, but with Mr. Gao and Senior Senior here, it is impossible for Wen Yuan Pavilion to be Yuan Pavilion has become a one-spoken institution. And Mr. Gao and Senior Senior Highness have the trust of His Highness, so matters in the court can be assured."
Bai Yuxiu nodded, but then shook his head: "There is one more thing, you probably forgot."
"One more thing?"
The young governor's face showed confusion.
Bai Yuxiu explained: "The imperial court is now implementing the New Deal. Where did the New Deal come from? It seems that Ren Ge always leads Wenyuan Pavilion, but under the New Deal, how heavy will be the responsibilities and burdens on his shoulders? Can you Have you ever thought about how many scoldings will be made in the world after the implementation of the New Deal?
In Wenyuan Pavilion today, the gentleman and the seniors treated Ren Pavilion with such courtesy, they also knew what was going on here. To say it's respect, it's better to say it's the gratitude from my husband and senior to Mr. Ren Ge. "
Wang Xinling opened his mouth with a look of realization on his face.
Bai Yuxiu stretched out her finger and pointed on Wang Xinling's forehead, smiled and shook her head: "You are Senior Chunfeng and don't know about the affairs of Qingyang Mansion?
A few months ago, many memorials in the imperial court were copied and sent to Chunfeng Academy. This was the intention of His Highness Taisun. Earlier, it was already determined that what happened in Wenyuan Pavilion today was
You and I still have a lot to learn from your husband and Senior Chunfeng. "
Bai Yuxiu sighed for the last time.
It seems to be expressing his shallow official experience, and also seems to be lamenting when he will be able to step into Wenyuan Pavilion from the youngest feudal official in the empire like Senior Chunfeng.
Wang Xinling's eyes were completely confused.
Everything he heard at this moment was really hard for him to digest.
In the end, with a trace of pure longing, I could only turn my head and look sideways at the hazy main hall of Wenyuan Pavilion behind the window paper.
…
Dawn is rising.
A new day slowly arrives in Yingtian City.
Today, the number of officials in Beijing who can enter the Meridian Gate can be described as sparse.
The officials in the six departments, five temples and three Dharma departments are relatively neat, but when it comes to the ministers, young ministers and other officials below, they are already very few.
After passing through Fengtian Gate, the officials headed towards the Huagai Hall where today's meeting will be held.
At this time, there will be scenes that make people laugh uncontrollably and laugh out loud.
The officials who entered the palace to attend the court meeting today were the most tidy among the officials who were promoted from the third-rank position of Shanglin Yuanjian just two years ago.
A large group of people, wearing a first-grade crane red robe and led by Yuan Sutai, the supervisor of Shanglinyuan, looked like the first yamen of the Ming Dynasty, holding their heads high and looking out of place with the surrounding colleagues in the DPRK.
Ren Hengtai, the Minister of Rites, was on duty at Wenyuan Pavilion, and Zhai Shan, the Minister of Official Affairs, was still recuperating in the Imperial Hospital.
The only people walking in front of the civil officials were Yu Xin, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and Wang Jun, the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. Behind them were the Zhengyintang officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the General Affairs Office.
Yuan Sutai did not move forward, and just silently led the officials from Shanglinyuan Prison to follow the crowd, but his eyes looked around from time to time.
Then, Yuan Sutai looked intently at another group of people in the middle of the crowd who were incompatible with the officials in the DPRK.
It was the group of craftsmen led by the great craftsman Zhang Ergong who joined the government.
Zhang Ergong, who is in the seventh-grade green robe, and a group of craftsmen in the ninth-grade green robe, can be recognized at a glance among the crowd.
They looked somewhat slovenly, and each piece of their official robes still had indentations, indicating that they rarely wore official robes on weekdays.
With his dark cheeks and palms covered with scars and calluses, he was clearly wearing official robes, but he did not look like an imperial official.
Yuan Sutai looked sideways at the Shanglinyuan prison officer beside him.
The other party immediately moved to Zhang Ergong and others.
After a while, Zhang Ergong seemed a little frightened and led his craftsmen to merge with the officials of Shanglinyuan Supervisor.
Zhang Ergong was very nervous at the moment. In front of him, Linyuan Supervisor Yuan Sutai's red crane robe was covered with water, which made him breathless just looking at it.
But he also felt a little curious about Yuan Sutai, who was wearing the red crane robe but never walked in the front.
Yuan Sutai was more calm than Zhang Ergong, and said softly: "I heard that the master craftsman has been traveling frequently in three places recently, and it is very hard. There are countless things to do in the country, so the master craftsman still needs to take good care of his own body."
Such personal words made Zhang Ergong feel at a loss for a while.
Zhang Ergong hurriedly raised his hands, lowered his head and whispered: "I... I am thinking of you, Inspector Xie Yuan. It's just that there are too many things to do. If you don't do them today, you will have to do more tomorrow, and you will be even more tired."
Yuan Sutai showed surprise on his face. He glanced at the officials from Shanglinyuan who were also surprised and couldn't help laughing twice: "In the court, you are the only one who can say that you are tired so directly. You are the only one who can say that you are tired." You are qualified to say this."
Zhang Ergong didn't know how to answer, so he could only keep nodding his head. He felt that this was not good, so he started to shake his head.
Yuan Sutai turned his eyes and changed the topic: "I heard... the master craftsman's steam ship is almost ready? I wonder how powerful that new ship can be?"
As soon as professional matters were mentioned, Zhang Ergong's eyes suddenly lit up.
The speed of his answer also increased: "Back to prison, the steam ship will be launched in two months. I am thinking about going downstream from the Longjiang Shipyard to Songjiang Prefecture.
If nothing happens, let the steam ship go to sea and go to Hangzhou. If nothing happened, he rushed to Jiaozhi Road.
After a round of back and forth, it will probably take until the end of the year to determine whether there are still any changes that need to be made.
It will probably take until this time next year to finalize the specifications and technology of the steam seagoing ships, and new steam seagoing ships will not be launched until the end of next year. "
Yuan Sutai was not in a hurry, and just listened quietly to Zhang Ergong's introduction to the steam ship.
After finishing talking about the construction period and arrangements, Zhang Ergong swallowed his saliva and continued proactively: "Now, according to the plan of the subordinates, this steam ship can carry three thousand materials. When the steam ship returns from Jiaozhi Road this year, Later, Xiaguan and others planned to increase the load to 5,000 materials.
Wooden sea ships have too many limitations. Xiaguan and others are still studying how to further increase the load capacity of sea-going ships and ensure that sea-going ships can tread flat ground on the ocean.
Bigger ships, more stable ships. Xiaguan and others hope that the imperial court will soon have large ships with tens of thousands of materials, and even ships with tens of thousands of materials can be built by Xiaguan and others.
If so, the imperial court could also build it into a warship. If there is trouble overseas, just a steam ship, full of officers and soldiers, is enough to quell the turmoil. "
As Zhang Ergong spoke out precise numbers one by one, the eyes of Yuan Sutai and others began to shine.
The large ship with five thousand materials is already comparable to the largest treasure ship in the hands of the imperial court today.
Even three thousand materials is a rare carrying capacity for ships traveling between Jiaozhi Road and Yingtian.
And most of the sea-going ships, such as those owned by the Zhongshan Prince's Mansion who were in charge of sea-going freight, only had one thousand or two thousand materials. Even if there are three thousand or four thousand materials, they are still few ships.
Now, Zhang Ergong has directly launched a ship with three thousand materials, and will strive to increase this number to five thousand materials next year, comparable to the Ming Dynasty's treasure ships.
He even predicted without any false pretense that in the future the Ming Dynasty would be able to build large ships with tens of thousands of materials from their hands.
A large ship worth tens of thousands of dollars, loaded with officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, going to sea to suppress the unrest?
Although Yuan Sutai is the supervisor of Shanglinyuan, his words here only made his blood surge for a moment.
