After Hai Rui returned to the court, he once again launched a pursuit of Xu Jie. If Xu Jie did not return his land, Hai Rui would not give up. Dai Fengxiang, the young minister of Yuanma Temple under the Ministry of War, was the same Dai Fengxiang who impeached Hai Rui. Hai Rui didn't even mention it and was not prepared to make a fuss with them.
Hai Rui can clearly distinguish the importance.
Hai Rui only asked Xu Jie to return the land.
Xu Jie Xu Huating, Huating County was renamed Xujiahui. Hai Rui pursued and went straight to the key point. The fields were the foundation of the Xu family and the means of production of the Xu family. If Xu Jie's fields were not taken away, Xu Jie would control the production. With the help of the information, they can rely on the land to make strong personal dependence on the tenants and homeless people, and then control the power and cause harm to one party.
But the matter of returning the land requires specific regulations, otherwise the matter of returning the land will become Xu Jie returning the land to Xu Jie.
Xu Zhenming inherited Ma Yilong's mantle. Zhu Yijun vividly remembered the land reclamation and occupation in Shanyin, Zhejiang that was eventually occupied. He often said, "That is my farm!"
The imperial court ordered the land to be returned, and Xu Jie must return it. After the land is returned, it becomes official land. Then Xu Jie can use his connections and power to return these acres to his own name at a very small price. Maybe for a short period of two or three years, the surname was not Xu, but after five or six years, after the storm subsided, the surname would definitely still be Xu.
Hai Rui summed up his past in his hometown in Qiongzhou. There is no clear distinction between clear and turbid currents in this world. The bad thing about the Ming Dynasty is that there is me among you, and you among me. Please give me convenience today. , I will make it easier for you tomorrow, you help me, I will help you, we are all good friends.
The regulations for returning the land that Hai Rui presented were very succinct: Hai Rui requested to continue to open the sea.
In this memorial, Hai Rui sharply criticized the Yuegang switch in the first year of Longqing. It was just a twitching switch, a switch that was afraid of wolves before and tigers behind, looking forward and backward, a switch that was done but only done. A little bit of change can only be a switch, not an opening to the sea at all!
Only the trade on the Ming Dynasty sea opened a small and insignificant gap.
The geographical environment of Yuegang is not good. The harbor is small, the water is shallow and there are many reefs. It can handle more than 200 three-masted merchant ships a day. This is the limit. Overseas four-masted sailing ships can only be towed in and out of the port by barges, not deep water. The harbor is not considered a good harbor. There are too many rocks, making it difficult for ships to dock and easily sinking.
We should look for a good port to open the sea, so the starting point of Zheng He's voyages to the West, Liujiagang in Suzhou and the Huangpu River in Songjiang Prefecture, became a good starting point. Songjiang Prefecture is a thoroughfare to nine provinces. Department stores are convenient for distribution, which is conducive to commerce and trade.
Since we want to open the sea, we must either not open it, close the Yue Harbor directly, close the country, and turn a deaf ear to what is happening outside the window; or we must completely open the sea, look for good harbors, encourage commerce, and make up for the public and private deficits.
If you want to do it, do it to the end. If you hesitate and stop moving forward, what is the point of opening up the sea?
The nine provinces leading to Songjiang Prefecture are the first good ports of the Ming Dynasty. If a municipal shipping department is set up in Songjiang Prefecture and the sea is completely opened, it will involve a problem. Without military preparation, the Ming Dynasty Navy will have no combat power at all.
Therefore, the regulations set up by Hai Rui in the memorial were to return the land to the military garrison and to the inspection department. The acres of land returned to the army to provide food and salary for the Navy, and to instruct Yu Dayou to go to Songjiang Prefecture to serve as the admiral of coastal defense and supervise the affairs. The Ming Navy planned to build a shipyard and recruit shipwrights to build new ships.
Hai Rui's memorial can be summed up in one sentence: to thin the Xu family, to fatten the world.
This is indeed a great national interest, so it naturally requires careful planning.
Zhang Juzheng saw Hai Rui's "Recording the Unfinished Matters of Xu Jie's Occupation and Reconnaissance in Preparation for the Planning of Public Security". It seemed that Hai Rui was pursuing Xu Jie with a personal grudge. However, Zhang Juzheng, a serious old official, could see through it at a glance. He fell into Hai Rui's trick and asked Xu Jie to return to the farm. It was just an excuse to kick open the small gap in the Ming Dynasty and open the door.
Things in the world are subject to change. Hai Rui had previously done very bad things, worked hard without caring about his own life, was a little too extreme and unkind, and could not succeed in attracting resentment.
A gentleman handles things with experience and power. Hai Rui could not adapt to changing circumstances before. He sought treatment too hastily and made changes too suddenly. Even if the situation was not strong, it would be difficult to achieve anything.
After going through the ups and downs of Hai Rui during the Longqing period, Hai Gangfeng, who was born in Juren, still retained his straightforward side, but he also knew how to be devious.
After Hai Rui returned to Beijing this time, the "In order to maintain public security" was just a vision plan. He is a person who is willing to bend down to do things. For example, the first step is to restore Yu Dayou's position and transfer him to Songjiang Mansion for rectification. Prepare coastal defense and train the navy. After the navy is established, build a shipyard to build ships for the navy and merchant ships.
"Let's talk about the feast." Zhu Yijun did not want the result immediately. Instead, he asked Zhang Juzheng to plan carefully and prepare carefully. If he wants to do it, he should do his best. If he doesn't do it, he should not even mention it.
"I retire." Hai Rui was not a bachelor of banquets, so he left the Wenhua Hall.
"Your Majesty, Hai Zongxian is the number one critic in the world and has a stubborn spirit. Why not let Hai Zongxian come?" Zhang Juzheng still had something he didn't want to figure out and wanted Hai Rui to teach instead.
Upon hearing this, Hai Rui immediately bowed his head and said: "I am a scholar, how can I be the emperor's teacher? There is a distinction between seniority and inferiority, old and young. I have no knowledge, so let Yuan Fu do it."
Hai Rui had talked with Yang Bo! Yang Bo told Hai Rui that he was wary of Mr. Yuan Fu getting rid of the banquet. It would be better for Mr. Yuan Fu to enjoy this credit alone.
It is a beautiful thing to give a feast to His Majesty.
Zhu Yijun smiled and said: "In that case, let's do it Mr. Yuanfu."
Want to escape? Don’t even think about it!
"I will help your majesty clear up your doubts." Zhang Juzheng bowed his head and said.
Zhu Yijun smiled and asked: "Are you going to talk about the Analects of Confucius today?"
"Your Majesty, why don't you talk about the Emperor Jian Tu?" Zhang Juzheng asked tentatively.
"Let's talk about the Analects first." Zhu Yijun waved his hand. He eagerly wanted to learn the books of sages and sages. He loved learning!
"I obey the decree."
…
After the banquet was over, Zhu Yijun took Feng Bao and Zhang Hong to the Qianqing Palace. On the road, Zhu Yijun suddenly stopped and whispered: "Feng Daban, the eight sons of the emperor's grandfather, only his father is alive?"
Feng Bao trembled, bowed his head and said, "It's true."
Jiajing took a side branch into the palace and fought for so long about saying that his father was his father. Later, Jiajing was assassinated by a palace maid, and the southern patrol was forced to return to the palace by the fire. It would be good if he could save himself. It would be difficult for him to protect his son and daughter.
Of Jiajing's five daughters, only two survived to get married. Of the eight sons and five daughters, only the eldest princess of Ning'an is still alive.
This premature death rate is obviously not normal. If it were normal, the Central Plains would be extinct in just a few generations.
"Zhang Daban, did you hear it too?" Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Hong and asked.
"I must do my best to protect His Majesty!" Zhang Hong said with a very solemn expression. He was qualified to be the eunuch of Qianqing Palace because of his meritorious service in capturing Wang Jinglong. His first duty is to protect His Majesty within three feet and prevent His Majesty from being put in danger. within the situation.
Zhang Hong had said this once before when he walked into Qianqing Palace from Langxia's house. If he said it again this time, he would be prepared to die in front of His Majesty.
"Feng Daban, will the sweet potatoes in our fields be harvested tomorrow?" Zhu Yijun asked Feng Bao about his work.
During this period of time, apart from biting people in the Wenhua Palace, Feng Bao focused all his attention on protecting the potato seedlings in the Baoqi Palace. Those potato seedlings were the treasures in His Majesty's palm, and he was very fond of them and could not be careless.
"Scholar Xu said that it will be harvest time tomorrow." Feng Bao said with great certainty.
"Tomorrow, let the courtiers go with me to Baoqi Hall to collect food." Zhu Yijun shook his sleeves, strode forward, and said in a distant and firm voice: "No matter what kind of monsters, ghosts, monsters, or monsters, they can't stop me. bring it on!"
A life of humiliation is worse than death. For Zhu Yijun, he would rather die a heroic death and live even though he is dead.
In recent months, the fish in Taiye Pond have suffered a lot, and it is all the fault of Feng Bao, a traitor.
Feng Bao prepared a finger-long short nail with a rope for His Majesty's slingshot. Zhu Yijun's slingshot was already very accurate. He went to Taiye Pond to fish with the slingshot all day long, and he hit three or four out of nine, which is famous for his reputation. : Training dynamic target.
He is also strong enough to draw a 30-pound light bamboo bow, and has already begun training on the light bamboo bow. However, due to his age, his light bow training will take more than two hundred days.
In the early morning of the next day, in mid-August, the late summer sunshine was extremely dazzling and even a bit hot. Zhu Yijun got up early. After having breakfast, he changed into short brown clothes. Short brown means made of coarse linen clothes. The top and trousers are worn to facilitate work. The casual clothes worn by the poor and servants when working are completely different from the long robes worn by the Confucian scholars.
Zhu Yijun put on a straw hat and headed towards the Xuanwu Gate with a group of people cheering in front and back.
Hai Rui was stunned when he saw the little emperor's short brown attire. Is this how the Ming Dynasty's supreme emperor should dress? Didn’t the Ministry of Rites launch a ritual debate on this issue?
But when Hai Rui thought about Lu Shusheng, he felt it was reasonable. Lu Shusheng himself was not doing justice, so how could he persuade the emperor to behave so recklessly?
Hai Rui is duty-bound to protect the Three Cardinal Guidelines and Five Constant Virtues in His Majesty's heart!
"I will pay my respects to Your Majesty. Is Your Majesty's bow okay?" The ministers paid homage again.
Zhu Yijun waved his little hand and said: "Without courtesy, gentlemen, please come with us."
The door of Shanglin Garden slowly opened, and Zhu Yijun walked into Jingshan step by step. Baoqi Hall was still low, and the glass in the sun room had been removed, allowing the sunlight to fully penetrate. Some of the heart-shaped leaves of the potato seedlings were already somewhat Withered and yellow, but still lush and green.
Those who travel a hundred miles are only half a mile away, and they are most likely to fail when they are only one step away from success. Feng Bao simply stayed in Baoqi Hall yesterday, and Langxia’s family is still in the forbidden city. This Baoqi Hall simply belongs to Lin Yuan Feng Bao was extremely cautious in order to ensure that nothing happened to Baoqi Palace.
There are about 200 fans in Dongchang, and there are more than 100 Tiqi guarding the outside of Shanglin Garden.
Even when the cowardly Tatar army came, a few of his teeth had to be broken.
As Zhu Yijun walked, he said to the ministers behind him: "Potatoes, sweet potatoes, etc. are usually harvested 25 to 30 days after the seedlings are planted. This has a lot to do with the light and ground temperature. If the light is sufficient, the ground temperature will be The sweet potato tubers will accumulate and gain weight rapidly only when the temperature is above 21 degrees. Forty days after planting, the number of underground tubers and the foundation have been determined. The vine weight and leaf surface need to be pruned from time to time from sixty to ninety days after planting. Topping.”
"Spring sweet potatoes must be harvested before cold dew; summer sweet potatoes for seed storage must be harvested before frost; sweet potatoes for storage must be harvested before frost."
Zhu Yijun talked about the sweet potato field, then came to the right and stood there. The five acres of land were all seedlings that had not been pinched or passivated by high temperature. He took the hoe and walked down under the shocked eyes of the officials. field.
Zhu Yijun cut off the cane neatly with his hands and feet, and dug out a whole sweet potato seedling. He picked up the root, patted the soil off the sweet potato seedling, and threw it aside.
Xu Zhenming took the farmers and young eunuchs to start harvesting in the fields.
The emperor led a scholar-official Xu Zhenming and a dozen farmers and eunuchs in short brown clothes to work in the fields. A group of scholar-officials, dressed in silk and satin with animals embroidered on their chests, stood at the edge of the field and watched the little emperor peeling sweet potatoes with his hands.
This scene made Hai Rui feel a little at a loss.
Zhu Yijun is very good at farm work. Although he is only ten years old, he has been practicing martial arts for more than half a year. His body is already strong and he can still do all the work in the fields.
"Feng Bao! You've collected everything, what did you ask us to collect!" Zhu Yijun screamed angrily!
Feng Bao grabs it!
Feng Bao and other young eunuchs took advantage of the fact that they were adults and had sufficient strength. They collected and accepted the little emperor's position. Feng Bao did not accept all of them, but paid attention to leaving some, which made the little emperor feel very involved. !
Feng Bao pushed up his straw hat and said cheerfully: "Your Majesty said this, I don't know what your Majesty is talking about."
As soon as he said this, Feng Bao moved faster and took away another plant from the little emperor's ridge. Zhu Yijun stopped talking and speeded up his hands.
Sweet potatoes with soil are piled up on the ridges of the fields. After being dug out of the soil, they have to be removed from the soil, weighed, and harvested.
A hundred and ten people working on five acres of land were able to dig out all the sweet potatoes in the soil in less than half an hour.
Zhu Yijun didn't stop at all, and took the people to the field on the left again. Here, they were all fighting and killing the potato seedlings that had been passivated by high temperature. They had to be extra careful when putting them away.
The civil and military courtiers standing on the dry shore also put on short brown clothes. High-end humiliation is often the simplest and most direct way. In terms of dignity, who in the world can be as noble as the emperor. The emperor wore short brown clothes and worked in the fields. , can the civil and military courtiers watch helplessly?
The emperor is the supreme emperor, and he is still married to farmers and mulberry trees, and it is not just a show.
These civil and military courtiers could only try their best to find short brown ones, put them on, and quickly follow them to the fields.
Virtue: Practicing the principles gained through practice.
But Zhu Yijun didn't ask anyone to prepare short browns for the civil and military courtiers. As soon as several courtiers saw the little emperor's dress, they knew that the emperor was going to the fields, and immediately sent people to get short browns. If they didn't have any at home, they immediately went to buy them. Absolutely You can't find the short brown before harvesting is finished.
Hai Rui was the quickest to find the short brown. He lived in poverty, and the short brown was used in his daily life in Qiongzhou. After returning to Beijing, he had it at home.
The fields on the left were harvested quickly, leaving a few courtiers who could not find the short brown and stood on the dry bank, feeling particularly embarrassed.
It is clear at a glance who is virtuous and who is ungrateful.
Among them, Lu Shusheng, the minister of the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Dynasty, and Wan Shihe, the right minister, were not found, and the left and right censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate were not found. The four of them stood at the edge of the field, extremely embarrassed.
There is strength in numbers, and soon the sweet potatoes are harvested.
Xu Zhenming led a group of young eunuchs to weigh carefully. After half an hour of weighing, Xu Zhenming came to the emperor with a small book and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the right side has been beaten without pinching. Fifteen thousand and thirty-two kilograms. After counting the left field, the total was twenty-five thousand and fifty-three kilograms. According to the 50% discount, the yield per mu of the right field is 600 kilograms, and the yield per mu of the left field is one thousand kilograms."
Ge Shouli asked doubtfully: "Whatever it is is what it is, why do we need to calculate it at a 50% discount?"
Hai Rui looked at Ge Shouli's confused face and said helplessly, "Give it a heavy blow."
Ge Shouli, who doesn't farm, doesn't quite understand why he needs to calculate, but Hai Rui has already figured it out.
"That's it." Ge Shouli suddenly realized.
Others didn't know, so they would just keep their questions in their hearts, waiting for someone to ask for advice when there was no one around. It would be better for Ge Shouli, not knowing he would really ask.
Zhu Yijun smiled and explained: "That's a good question, Mr. Ge."
For food like sweet potatoes, the conversion standard must be determined from the beginning. Otherwise, dry weight and fresh weight will be mixed up later, and the wings of this sweet potato will be broken before it takes off.
Sometimes, the court really needs people like Ge Shouli to ask questions that others don't ask.
Zhu Yijun continued: "We cut the sweet potatoes into strips and dried them in the sun. The dry weight was only a little more than one-fifth of the original weight. Therefore, calculating at a 50% discount, the yield per mu on the right is 600 kilograms, which is five stones. On the left, the yield of one thousand catties per mu is about eight stones."
"Luo Gongchen didn't lie to me, but the dozens of stones he said were fresh weight, and the five or eight stones per mu we talked about were dry weight."
"With so many people taking care of these ten acres of land, it can be said that the weather is smooth, disease-free and disaster-free. The little yellow gatekeepers want to kill every aphid. If it is cultivated by private people, the yield per mu will still be reduced. Even if it is reduced by more than half, sweet potatoes , is also the first among hybrid plants, and has the most important purpose of rescuing famine."
Zhu Yijun held up a sweet potato the size of an adult's fist in his left hand, and a potato the size of a child's fist in his right hand. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. This smile soon spread and turned into a harvest smile.
Sweet potatoes and potatoes are both hybrid crops. Hybrid crops are not cash crops like leeks. Hybrid crops are also food crops, but they are not as dominant as wheat and rice. Sweet potatoes and potatoes supplement the diversity of Ming Dynasty food crops. Its positioning is Save the famine.
Hai Rui looked at the piles of sweet potatoes and immediately understood the importance of this food. He bowed his head with emotion and said: "If there is not enough grain, there will be insufficient food. If there is insufficient food, the people will not be able to survive. Farming, food and clothing It is the first task of the king's government."
"Every time of famine, in a land with narrow mountains and seas, the soil is barren and the people are poor. God has given me little rain and it is difficult to get up from all directions. Then famine comes, and the hungry people cry out for food. I congratulate Your Majesty. I congratulate you on the great Ming Dynasty. "
"I congratulate Your Majesty and the Ming Dynasty!" Upon hearing this, the ministers quickly bowed their heads and saluted. Isn't this Hai Rui a direct minister? Why did you come back to Beijing this time, and instead of admonishing His Majesty to follow the right path, you are still here taking the lead in singing praises!
The reason why Hai Rui wanted to go to the "Public Security Shu" was not because Emperor Jiajing was obsessed with mystical cultivation and had not been in court for more than 20 years, so he spoke out to remonstrate with him.
"Your Majesty, the potatoes and sweet potatoes in Xiyuan have also been harvested." Zhang Hong, wearing short brown shorts, ran very fast, panting heavily and bowed his head to report.
Xiyuan is the place where Emperor Jiajing devoted himself to mystical cultivation. It is a large area such as Taiye Lake, Beihai, Zhonghai, and Nanhai. To the west of Wansui Mountain, there are two roads, Zhishan Gate and Taiye Bridge, which lead to Qionghua Island in the lake. .
There is Guanghan Palace on the island. After the Renyin Palace Incident, Emperor Jiajing, who was almost strangled to death by his maid, moved to Guanghan Palace in Xiyuan. The rest of the place is covered with water. Only Taiye Bridge and Chengguang Palace can reach the island. .
After the Renyin Palace incident, Yan Song worked as an errand in the Chengguang Palace outside Taiye Bridge for a long time.
For twenty years, Emperor Jiajing lived deep in Xiyuan. He did not live in the forbidden city of the palace, but in the garden outside the palace - Xiyuan.
Zhu Yijun turned Baiguoyuan into a nursery and Baoqi Palace in Shanglin Garden, at the foot of Meishan Mountain, but this does not mean that he put all his chips in one basket. Baoqi Palace was in the Ming Dynasty and was a target; Xiyuan The large gardens of Qionghua Island are in the dark, and the layout is the same as that under Jingshan Mountain.
"How was the harvest?" Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Hong and asked.
Zhang Hong took out a small book and reported the statistical data. In terms of dry weight, the yield of undetoxified potato seedlings per mu was five stones, that of pinched and killed potato seedlings was eight stones, and that of potatoes under Jingshan Mountain. The output is roughly the same.
Zhang Juzheng had Feng Bao as a source of accurate information in the palace. He didn't even know that Xiyuan was also farming, let alone others who could only receive some vague information.
The little emperor was so cautious that even when farming in the palace, he arranged for many people to take care of it, and the guards were so tight, he actually opened a spare field in Xiyuan to prevent things from going wrong in Jingshan Baoqi Palace.
Zhang Juzheng didn't think this was Feng Bao's idea at all. In the past six months or so, Zhang Juzheng had had a lot of contact with His Majesty the Emperor. It was obvious that it was the handiwork of the little emperor. Who was the little emperor guarding against? It goes without saying that he was guarding against someone in the middle. bad thing.
The Chief Minister of the Ming Dynasty thought for a long time, and it seemed that he was also on the list of precautions, because he did not know that there was another Baoqi Hall in Xiyuan.
Who did this cunning rabbit's three acupoints learn from?
Zhang Juzheng thought about it for a long time and seemed to have learned it from himself...
Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "Very good, very good. I, Liang Deyouchong, have assumed the supreme position and relied on the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs at home and abroad. This is a good thing to save famine and a happy event for our Ming Dynasty. Feng Daban, twenty-seven Each of the courtiers weighs five kilograms of sweet potatoes and brings them back."
The reward is a sweet potato in the hands of the emperor, and all twenty-seven courtiers have a share.
"Thank you for your grace." The ministers thanked them again. The reward was not worth much. According to the dry weight, it was the value of a pound of rice. However, it was grown by the emperor himself, so it was of great significance.
Zhu Yijun looked at Xu Zhenming. Xu Zhenming looked at the piles of sweet potatoes and was so happy that he didn't even notice that the little emperor was looking at him.
Feng Bao poked Xu Zhenming gently. Xu Zhenming was a little confused, and then he suddenly realized. He went to Baoqi Hall, took a memorial and returned it, handed it to Zhang Juzheng and said: "Mr. Yuan Fu, this is written by your Majesty." "The Emphasis on Agriculture, Sangwu, Bending, and the Construction of the Baoqi Division".
Zhu Yijun looked at Xu Zhenming, a little helpless. This was a memorial to Xu Zhenming. It was indeed instructed by him as the emperor. Baoqisi specializes in agricultural research, including agricultural tools, fertilizers, farming, four seasons, and plant protection. , animal husbandry, and crop improvement, etc.
But can we say that this was ordered by the emperor? !
Can't you say you wrote it yourself? !
Xu Zhenming had carefully considered these words. Good reputation should be attributed to oneself, bad reputation should be attributed to oneself, and self-esteem should be selfish. Xu Zhenming cannot do such a thing. Since it is His Majesty's idea, it naturally means that no matter who inherits this kindness in the future , all thanks to His Majesty’s kindness.
Moreover, in the memorial, the location of Baoqisi was within the Xiyuan (Royal Garden). If Xu Zhenming said his idea, someone would have to believe it.
The reason why Zhu Yijun relied on Xu Zhenming's hand to complete this proposal was that he had not yet taken charge of the government, so he could only go in this circle. It makes sense to go in such a circle. This is political leeway, and everyone has room to advance and retreat. As for not being able to get off stage.
Zhang Juzheng disagreed, and he was refuting Xu Zhenming, not His Majesty the Emperor.
As a result, Xu Zhenming directly said that it was the emperor's order, and the room for advancement and retreat was completely eliminated.
Xu Zhenming is a talented person who knows nothing but farming.
Zhang Juzheng took the memorial and read it for a moment, bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, after Rong Chen understands it, before the evening drum, he will post a floating ticket on the memorial and the court will discuss this matter."
Zhang Juzheng has no intention of looking down on His Majesty's edict. Even if it is expressed through Xu Zhenming, Zhang Juzheng will go through all the procedures and treat it with caution.
Zhang Juzheng is not Yan Song, Xu Jie, or Gao Gong. He has no political heir. What he hopes most is that His Majesty the Emperor can become a capable person, lead the Ming Dynasty out of the quagmire, restore its vitality, and revive the Ming Dynasty.
Seeing that His Majesty the Emperor was willing to do things and could accomplish them, he was so happy that it was too late, so how could he stop him.
Zhang Juzheng needed to make sure that the eunuchs in the palace did not lie to the emperor.
As for Baoqisi's expenses, Zhang Cheng and Luo Gongchen just brought back a large sum of silver from the emperor's southern treasury, which was enough.
"Your Majesty, I would like to invite Qi Jiguang, who has moved to Anbo, to return to the capital and lead Fanmiao to take charge of farming in the three towns." Zhang Juzheng put away Xu Zhenming's memorial and bowed his head.
Qi Jiguang was a side general, so how could he return to Beijing easily? However, His Majesty gave Qi Jiguang the status of Qian Anbo, and Qi Jiguang transformed into Wu Xun. Then Qi Jiguang could return to Beijing at any time. Although Wu Xun has declined, a noble is still a noble. Wu Xun's local appointment is called guest service, which means he is a guest in other places.
With Qi Jiguang's status as Wu Xun, he can return to Beijing at any time.
Zhang Juzheng requested an order to allow Qi Jiguang to return to the capital, mainly because of the matter of promoting generals in the capital camp. When the time came, neither Wu Baipeng, the left minister of the Ministry of War, nor Yang Wen, the deputy commander-in-chief, were suitable to be president (summarize and judge the matter) , and Qi Jiguang is suitable.
To put it more clearly, Yang Wen and Wu Baipeng could not suppress so many thorns, so they had to invite Qi Shuai back to suppress the battle.
Ge Shouli immediately stood up, bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, I would like to ask Ma Fang, the former Datong military officer, to return to Beijing and lead Fan Miao to preside over the plowing of Datong."
Qi Jiguang can fight, and so can Ma Fang of the Jin Party!
Ma Fang's identity is actually very embarrassing. He was robbed when he was a child and fled back as a young man. As a returnee from the south, he was not trusted in the era of fierce conflict between the Ming Dynasty and the Tatars from the 32nd to the 45th year of Jiajing. , Ma Fang started from one side and climbed up step by step by virtue of his military exploits. If Emperor Jiajing had not come forward to say that he was not as brave as Ma Fang, Ma Fang would not have been able to reach the position of chief military officer so smoothly.
Lord Ma has three eyes, he is Ma Fang, a tough guy with eyes on the back of his head.
Ge Shouli was straightforward, but he kept in mind what Yang Bo told him. He held high the banner of honoring the power of the Lord. Zhang Juzheng wanted to do something, and the Jin Party followed suit.
Zhang Juzheng did well, and it was natural for him to do it well. The Jin Party has achieved something, and that is a respectful heart.
Zhang Juzheng was silent for a moment and said: "What Mr. Ge said is reasonable. The wasteland on the border is reclaimed. The land is already barren and water conservancy is inconvenient. It is just right to cultivate sweet potatoes to save the famine. Xuanfu Datong should also cultivate it to fill the border area. The truth.”
Zhang Juzheng needs the Jin Party or other parties to maintain balance, at least maintain a superficial balance, start a family and start a business. In the Ming Dynasty, a man became a man at the age of fifteen, and he was married at the age of twenty. , you can't fully govern until you are twenty years old.
In the past ten years, Zhang Juzheng could not establish a single-minded family, otherwise, even if Zhang Juzheng didn't want to, there would still be people pushing him forward.
In Yuan Fu's position, one step back would lead to a bottomless abyss, and one step further would lead to an eternal sycophant.
Hai Rui thought for a while and bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, I think we should invite Yu Dayou to come to Beijing to bring in potato seedlings and farm them to cultivate his sharpness."
Yu Dayou came to Beijing for the ambition of opening the sea in Hai Rui's "In order to maintain public security". Opening the sea will cause a lot of troubles. The knife is not sharp enough, and it is impossible to open the sea safely.
"Then each will write a memorial and discuss it at the court tomorrow." Zhu Yijun waved his little hand and said, "That's it for today. I'm going back to the palace to practice martial arts."
Zhu Yijun looked at the pile of sweet potatoes and felt happy.
"I respectfully send you off to Your Majesty." The ministers greeted each other. The twenty-seven courtiers in the power center of the Ming Dynasty today are really insulting to the gentlemen. However, these sweet potatoes are the first among hybrid plants and the most important thing to save famine. We will talk about this in the future. You can also say, I will participate in the famine relief!
It was night, the Wenchang Pavilion in the study room of the Quanchu Guild Hall was brightly lit. Zhang Juzheng was sitting in the first place, Yang Bo was sitting on the left, and Hai Rui was sitting on the right.
"I invite you two to come today because I have something to say. Taizai Yang has submitted a petition to resign, and Lu Shusheng has also submitted a petition to resign. There are six ministers and two ministers are vacant." Zhang Juzheng explained concisely and concisely that he had called both Yang Bo and Hai Rui today. The intention to go to the Quan Chu Guild Hall.
It's not that Hai Rui has much say, but that Hai Rui has a good reputation. Let Hai Rui be a witness. If the official is dissatisfied with this round of personnel changes, Hai Rui's seeing is believing. He finally has someone else to prove it. two.
The whole city of the province was criticized one after another, making everyone look disgraced. Zhang Juzheng agreed to Hai Rui's return to the court, and also had some thoughts of taking advantage of Hai Rui.
Politics is this cold-blooded game.
"Is it true that Yang Dazai won't stay any longer?" Zhang Juzheng looked at Yang Bo and asked quite sincerely.
Please give me a monthly ticket, wow! ! ! ! ! !
