Mei Kejia looked back at Hangzhou outside the city. From the eleventh year of Hongzhi to here, eight years passed by in the blink of an eye.
Over the years, he has been close to various officials in Zhejiang, cultivated his own strength, and expanded his business overseas. It can be said that there are thousands of people working for him, but he himself is also working hard.
His family members were all in the capital, and there was always the most trusted eunuch in the Forbidden City in Zhejiang.
In fact, if you spend too many days like this, you will feel that you are aimless and meaningless.
"Master Mei is one of the richest people in Hangzhou, but he couldn't bear to buy a decent carriage all the way back to Beijing?"
The person who spoke was a young and beautiful girl in her prime, wearing a goose-yellow skirt, with a pair of small mouths that were extremely curved. A few strands of soft hair were combed in front of her forehead, and her big eyes were open, which seemed a bit lively.
As for the carriage she mentioned, it was indeed a bit shabby. Not to mention the paint peeling off, the seats inside were all worn black, and it was not impressive at all.
"The oil seller combs her hair with water, and the meat seller gnaws the bones. Of the money I earn, very few of it belongs to me."
"You can't leave nothing for me, right?"
"Of course there will be some left. But from that person on down, who wouldn't want to see everyone share in it?"
"If you feel tired, you don't have to do it."
"……good."
Mei Kejia left Hangzhou,
Yang Yiqing also left the capital at about the same time, followed by Yang Shangyi, Zhou Shangwen, Zhang Yong and others.
However, the brothers under Zhou Shangwen, Yu Zichu, Tan Wenyi, and Chang Dacheng, were left behind. They had received orders to go to Zhejiang, Fujian, and Jiangxi respectively to serve as capital commanders.
As for the brothers they each brought with them, the court did not go into detail. As long as the names were reported, they would all be approved.
Zhou Shangwen and his four remaining brothers, Sun Xilie, Liu Jiangjie, Shi Dahuai and Xu Zhenan, went to Datong. He has the imperial edict and the seal of the Ministry of War, but other than that, he can only pretend to have courage.
Next, he will serve as the commander of the Ming Dynasty cavalry.
Compared with the excitement of his four brothers, Zhou Shangwen was actually cautious.
Shi Dahuai and Xu Zhenan were so proud of themselves while riding their horses all the way. They felt that their eldest brother Zhou Shangwen was not an ordinary person. In the past, the platform was not good, but now he has 20,000 cavalry. Isn't that a vast world to roam at will?
On the other hand, Sun Xilie would accompany Zhou Shangwen to say a few words along the way, but he didn't understand it at first.
Until Zhou Shangwen said, "Soldiers are deceitful." , he only understood these eight words. In fact, the person involved may feel that the burden is as heavy as a mountain. When will war be a sure thing?
No one in Jingli from top to bottom thinks that you will lose. This kind of battle is the most difficult to fight.
…
"Soldiers are deceitful. Therefore, they show their inability when they are able; they show their inability when they use them; they show how far they are when they are close; they show how close they are when they are far."
In the library of the military academy, the teenage Han Twelve Lang and the bearded Xu Guan were studying together. The two were so different in size...it was actually a bit funny.
The person who taught them was an old general who used to follow Wang Yue. Because the academy needed a teacher, Wang Yue arranged for him to come in at that time to provide some care for an old subordinate.
….
Wang Yue is not a very particular person. When he was the Minister of the Ministry of War, he had indeed done a few things of abusing power for personal gain.
But fortunately, he came down from the battlefield after all, and he was surrounded by Wang Yue, so it was okay to teach him something.
The old gentleman liked Xu Guan more. Although he looked tall and rough and could not read well, Xu Guan was a very powerful warrior. There was no requirement to study for such a person these days, which meant that the emperor had strange ideas.
This made Han Twelve Lang very unconvinced. Although he could read better and memorize things more familiarly, the old man always looked at him with both noses and eyes.
As for this sentence, he was not flattering at all, but
As for Xu Guan, he has an elm-headed head. "Soldiers are deceitful, and then they start to remember."
In the end, the old man comforted him and said, "General Xu has grown up after all. When it comes to studying, it is best to start from childhood. At Twelve Lang's age, he should be able to memorize an article after reading it three or five times. .”
Xu Guan scratched his head and secretly glanced at Han Twelve Lang who pursed his lips tightly and had a face as cold as frost. He doesn't want to either...
At the end of the day, he went to find Twelve Lang to go home, but Twelve Lang hid in the academy's library and refused to leave.
"I am good at memorizing because I am young. You are good at kungfu because you are strong. This old gentleman just looks down on me!"
Xu Guan knelt down and said, "I don't mean that, so don't think too much about it."
"I think it's there." Twelve Lang stuffed a mouthful of steamed buns into his mouth, "Let's go. I want to read this "Northwestern War Chronicle". I'm not as big as you, but dad said that we should use this place for war. "
His finger also pointed at his head.
"I'm so excited to read these crappy books..." Xu Guan was really impressed. He felt like he had a big head after just reading for a while. If it weren't for the imperial edict, he wouldn't want to stay in this damn place all day long.
Especially today, many people went to the border again.
Xu Guan felt a little bored... He also wanted to go, but it was really not interesting here.
Han Twelve Lang seemed to feel something. He looked at Xu Guan's back and shouted: "Hey, how about I practice with you for a while?"
He meant well.
Unexpectedly, Xu Guan said in disgust: "If we don't meet our opponents, the gap will be too big and it will be boring to play."
"you!"
Twelve Lang chewed the steamed bun hard. If he couldn't beat him, he would have wanted to do it!
…
…
Zhu Houzhao was looking at the memorial left by Yang Yiqing before he left.
As for the selection of the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, you can raise your opinions as long as you have any. So that's okay.
"Liang Shuhou and Liang Shuhou worked together as agents of Guan Mu Farm in the early years, and we should be familiar with each other. In addition, he is the Minister of Civil Affairs and has a good relationship with the cabinet. For him, he can't offend both sides. He is indeed the best person. selection."
Zhu Houzhao can still figure out the key to this.
Liu Jin responded, "That's right. But I heard your Majesty say that Minister Liang is very upright, and all matters regarding Zhejiang and Fujian are only money."
"Your brain also understands my thoughts. Do you have any good candidates for the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian?"
"I would like to thank Your Majesty for your praise. I don't dare to say good things. I will just remind you. Has Your Majesty ever thought of... raising someone from the local area?"
….
"Wang Dehua (Wang Qiong)?" Zhu Houzhao frowned, clicked his tongue, and really started to think in his heart.
If Liang Shuhou is decent, then Wang Qiong is extremely strange and will use whatever method works. It's not impossible to use him...
"I'll think about it."
After a while, Wang Hao and Han Wen handed the sign to the attendant's room, and then entered the palace to see the emperor.
When they opened their mouths, they recommended Yang Tinghe again.
This made Zhu Houzhao keenly feel the smell of party struggle. Except for Yang Yiqing, he almost threw a suggestion over, but he actually wanted to get along. Everyone else really has their own thoughts.
Even if it was Liu Jin, why did he mention Wang Qiong? This kind of eunuch can also do good things to people without any reason.
"...The situation in Zhejiang and Fujian will definitely be chaotic and complicated in the future. The imperial court must send a capable minister who handles matters in a clear and orderly manner. Jiefu has been able to handle matters since he joined the Military Aircraft Department and can often quickly grasp the key points of affairs. Moreover, he is a potential official. Old minister."
Zhu Houzhao stood at the door with his hands behind his back, not sitting on the dragon chair. He was looking outside and thinking carefully.
Throwing out a governor of Zhejiang and Fujian... actually caused a fight among all parties. The longer this matter is delayed, as long as it is uncertain, the minds of all parties will be on it. Even Wang Qiong will care about Beijing every day, not Zhejiang.
It is actually not terrible for ministers to fight with each other
, the so-called lack of factions in the party is full of strange things. The key lies in how an emperor guides and controls.
As for Zhu Houzhao, he has a bottom line, that is, he cannot win...the court did not make the best choice.
Thinking like this, he actually already had a calculation in his mind.
"Where is the husband himself? Have you talked to him? What did he say?"
Han Wen took a step forward and said, "As long as it is a holy will, mountains of swords will go up and seas of fire will fall. Jiefu will definitely take His Majesty's decree as the standard!"
That means there was no discussion.
Zhu Houzhao thought about these people carefully and found that each has its own advantages and disadvantages. "Mr. Wang, Mr. Han. I will tell you everything in front of you two. Yang Jiefu is not suitable for the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian."
Wang Hao and Han Wen looked at each other and said, "Your Majesty, please give me your instructions."
"In the eleventh year of Hongzhi, Qi Kuan, the chief envoy of Shandong Province, invaded and seized the land of the people. Jie Fu was slow and too gentle in taking office in Qingzhou Prefecture. In the end, I went to supervise and sent Shandong eunuchs to guard the site, and progress was made. . Now the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian needs more forceful measures. How can Jiefu do it? If Shandong is okay, sending someone there will only take a few days. But Zhejiang and Fujian are still far away, and I, the emperor, can only Afraid of being out of reach. So to a large extent it depends on the person himself.”
Neither Wang Hao nor Han Wen expected that the emperor would remember this.
In fact, Zhu Houzhao was mainly concerned that he would be at odds with Wang Qiong. The two have not met now, so he cannot predict the future, but even based on his current personality, he can infer it.
Until then, no one has to blame but the emperor himself. The most important thing for an emperor is to use the right people.
As for the reason he said, neither Wang nor Han could argue with it, because the opening of the sea was a big deal. The emperor didn't trust a person. If you insist on saying good things about him, something went wrong in the end... This is not fun. Son.
….
So the nature of this matter suddenly changed at this time. I could recommend it casually before, but now I can’t. The brain must be alive and not frozen.
"Mr. Yang Ge also recommended someone to me, the minister of the Ministry of Personnel."
"Liang Shuhou?"
"good."
"Shuhou is indeed qualified to be a capital official." Wang Hao said this.
The implication is that it is easy to be affected by lakes wherever you go. Those corrupt officials and subordinate staff will not talk to you about the way of a gentleman at all.
"That's okay. I think Liang Shuhou's biggest unsuitability is that his official position is too small. As the emperor, I am considering opening up the sea. As I said earlier, the court will show off the momentum of a lion fighting a rabbit and send A minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs obviously does not have all the power of the imperial court. Besides, the northwest uses the cabinet minister, but the southeast does not, which makes some people think that the southeast is less important."
"No! I don't want this! I will show my fangs for them to see from the beginning. It's all good to support the imperial court's policies. If you don't support it, you have to keep your head in your belt and be prepared to die or die!"
Speaking of this, Zhu Houzhao clenched his fists. To a certain extent, it is now a game for the brave. If you dare to be aggressive, we will do it. Don’t you dare? Just wait!
So his eyes were actually looking at Wang Hao.
Wang Hao was a little surprised. He was not afraid, but he was really surprised. "Your Majesty... a humble minister is no better than an uncle. If it delays important events..."
"No, you forgot someone." Zhu Houzhao's mouth curved, "It must have been several years. He shocked you and me as soon as he made his move. Only you can trust him. , let him go."
"one person?"
"Wang Shouren."
As soon as this name appeared, Wang Hao's mind immediately recalled their experience when they captured Zhang Tao in the northwest together.
