After sending the letter to Nurhachi to Baiyulou for a file and sending it to Liaodong, Gao Shishi did not have time to spare, first dealt with several batches of officials who sent people to listen to the source, took a break after lunch, and went to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies in the afternoon to discuss with Zhu Yingzhen and others.

The daily life of court officials is often like this, picking out a few important items in a large number of things to grasp. Gao Pragmatic's current situation is of course a little more complicated than that of ordinary officials, but in the final analysis, his own job is to serve as a political servant, so the two parts of the Praetorian Guard and the Production and Construction Corps are his most basic work tasks, and they belong to the project of "no room for error".

It was not his own idea to come to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armed Forces today, but a request made by the Governor's Office of the Five Armed Forces, which is said to be a troublesome matter that "if the high palace cannot be secured, the five governments will be helpless."

Okay, a good leader is to be able to help his subordinates solve big troubles that they can't solve on their own, and Gao Pragmatic has this awareness.

Yang Bing, the uncle of Zhangwu Bo Yang Bing, who is the governor of Jingying Rongzheng, has no arrogance, and personally welcomed the assistant Jingying Rongzheng Gao pragmatic at the gate of the Zhongjun Governor's Mansion, Gao Shiran smiled politely, and Shi Shiran entered the gate of Zhongfu with the appearance of a master.

People who are not familiar with the special system of the Ming Dynasty are afraid that it is difficult to understand why the second-in-command is tougher than the first-in-command, who is the governor and who is the assistant.

Yang Bing obviously has no such doubts, he is completely aware of his status - he is just a mascot, where can he really take his turn? Not to mention that the real power of Gao Shipra, the "assistant", is at least ten times greater than him, even if several other governors of the five prefectures, such as Xu Wenbi, Zhu Yingzhen, Zhang Yuangong and others, no matter which one stands up and speaks, they are much better than him.

Why?

Hey, he is the grandfather of the country, and the other two are also Hou Ye, so they are naturally better than his uncle! This is an era in which the achievements of the ancestors determine the status of the descendants, and you have to obey it, and you have to obey it if you don't accept it.

If you really can't accept it, you go to the imperial examination! If you have the ability to dominate the Toad Palace with the same pragmatism, then you can also change it, but this way is not suitable for Xungui, then two words, anyway, I haven't heard of any Xungui family out of Jinshi Master or even Zhuangyuan Wenquxing.

Yang Bing welcomed Gao Pragmatic to the outside of the White Tiger Hall, Zhu Yingzhen and Zhang Yuangong had already greeted them at the door, and when they saw Gao Pragmatic coming in, they all smiled and came over to salute.

However, at this time, Gao Pragmatic can't let them salute first, after all, Guogong is the top of the foreign surname Xungui, and the number of courtesies that should be there must be, so Gao Pragmatic raised his hand first: "Two grandfathers, all marquis, uncles, pragmatic and late, Wan begging Haihan." ”

Today, Dingguo Gong Xu Wenbi is not there, and Zhu Yingzhen has the highest status, so he hurriedly responded on behalf of everyone: "Eh, where is the palace guard, it turns out that we have something to worry about the palace guard, and if we want to say 'Wan Qi Haihan', it should also be us." Besides, Gong Bao has definitely been busy with everything recently, and I am grateful to be able to take the time to come. ”

Hey? Zhu Yingzhen's style of speaking today is a little wrong. He usually looks like he is intimate with himself, and he speaks and acts very naturally, why is he so polite today?

Gao Pragmatic's heart moved, but thinking about what they said before that there was a big trouble, he was relieved, in short, listen to them first and then see what the trouble was.

"Grandpa Guo is polite...... Gao pragmatic changed his words: "But these days are indeed a little busy, and we are not outsiders, so don't waste too much time and be polite, let's go in and get down to business." ”

Zhu Yingzhen and the others glanced at each other, and hurriedly invited Gao Shishi into the White Tiger Festival Hall.

At this point, Gao Pragmatic can't "look like a master", and the rules that the court should have must have. So Yang Bing, the governor of Jingying Rongzheng, sat on the first throne, Gao pragmatic sat on the second seat a little next to him, and the other four governors sat on both sides.

However, Uncle Zhang Wubo first explained to Gao Shishi: "Dingguo Gong has been in poor health recently, and he has been recuperating in another hospital on the outskirts of Beijing, so he can't come today, so he asked me to apologize to Gao Gongbao......"

Gao pragmatic nodded: "I know the situation of Dingguo Gong, and I sent someone to send a few medicines over a few days ago, there is no need to say much about this matter, I just wish Grandpa Guo a speedy recovery." ”

Xu Wenbi's physical condition has not been very good, and it is not that he has any serious illness, but he has some congenital asthma, and it is easy to cause it every time he changes to a new environment.

In this case, the Chinese medicine doctor did not pay much attention to what he said, but according to his thinking in his previous life, it is probably that this person's respiratory tract is more prone to allergies, and an allergy causes asthma, which leads to problems such as dyspnea. As long as this situation is well maintained, death will not occur, but it is necessary to avoid running around as much as possible, and it is best to stay in a familiar environment to isolate allergens.

It is estimated that the imperial doctor of the Tai Hospital and the famous doctor invited by his family should have told him these precautions, so he has rarely moved around recently, and he will not come forward in person for things that are not extremely important, and if he can't do it, he will send a representative. For example, there is also his representative present today, that is, Xu Xizhen, who Gao Shishi is very familiar with - he is the eldest grandson of Xu Wenbi. However, because he had neither a knighthood nor an official position, he could only accompany the last seat.

After gossiping, Gao pragmatic glanced around at the nobles and asked, "Okay, what's the trouble, let's hear it." ”

Well, getting straight to the point, it's very pragmatic.

However, all of you here and Gao Pragmatic are old acquaintances, and they are very familiar with this style, so they don't feel awkward.

Several people glanced at each other, and Zhu Yingzhen spoke: "That's the case, the Production and Construction Corps has gradually been on the road, but there is a trouble right now...... Truth-seeking, do you know that the location of the emperor's Shou Palace has been decided? ”

"You know, what's wrong?" Gao Pragmatism is a little unclear.

It is normal for the emperor to repair the Shou Palace early, especially Zhu Yijun has experienced the embarrassment that his father Emperor Mu Zong has no place to bury him for a while, so his Shou Palace was built very early, as if he started planning when he was twenty years old. Now it has been delayed for so long to start construction, and it is already because of the continuous war. Now that it was easy to stop fighting for the time being, the matter was immediately put on the agenda by the courtiers - the courtiers also felt that the situation like Mu Zong was not very good, and the faces of the courtiers could not be hung up.

And speaking of which, at that time, Mu Zong also thanked his father Emperor Jiajing for his father Emperor Xingxian to build a longevity palace in Tianshou Mountain, and in the end he did not move the tomb of Emperor Xingxian from Hubei, so this longevity palace has been empty. Later, Mu Zong died, no one in the court dared to come up with ideas, and it was too late to build a new longevity palace.

So, the grandson lived in the longevity palace that his father originally prepared for his grandfather.

This...... I'm afraid that Gao Gong will dare to shoot this board, after all, in the Ming Dynasty, which is very ancestral in the imperial court, few important ministers dare to say that they want to "change the law and move in time".

Zhu Yingzhen coughed dryly, and said a little hesitantly: "This, it stands to reason that for such a thing as the emperor's repair of the Shou Palace, it is natural for the Beijing camp to make some efforts." However, to seek the truth, you once said at the time of the establishment of the Production and Construction Corps that in the future, you can't always let the imperial court summon these people in vain, and the money that should be issued will always be distributed, otherwise there is no difference between this Production and Construction Corps and the Beijing camp in the past...... "Okay Chinese right

Oh, I see.

As soon as Zhu Yingzhen mentioned this, Gao Pragmatic guessed what was going on. It must be that the emperor needs to employ people in Xiushou Palace, and the Ministry of Industry directly issued an order in accordance with the "tradition" of the past to recruit craftsmen from the Beijing camp to repair Shou Palace.

Some people may ask: The Ministry of Industry is not the Ministry of War, so why does it transfer people from the Beijing battalion to do things?

If you want to expand on this situation, it is more complicated, but it can be said more simply. Probably because the previous Beijing camp had no status anyway, it was often transferred by the imperial court to do projects, and there were all kinds of miscellaneous work, such as repairing the emperor's mausoleum, low-end such as digging out the manure pit, important such as repairing the city wall, and secondary such as paving the road, anyway, Jingying has done everything.

But it doesn't mean anything about having done it, the key is that there are two things that are miserable.

At the beginning, to mobilize them, the Ministry of Industry first needed to consult the emperor, and then the emperor ordered it to the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of War issued an order, and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies would transfer troops to do things. Later, there may be too many such things, such as dredging the sewers in the capital, which also requires the emperor, and the emperor of course feels annoyed, so these processes are slowly simplified, and they are directly ordered by the Ministry of Industry, and the default rules are gradually formed.

The second point is that the Ministry of Industry asked Jingying to do the project, and in most cases it did not pay for the project. Because according to everyone's understanding, you already have a military salary in Beijing, and now you are idle, and doing the project itself is also a task given to you by the imperial court, why do you need to take another sum of silver?

This made Jingying very unlucky, because although the imperial court paid money to Jingying, which is true, most of the salary did not belong to the nature of "salary", and theoretically it was mainly for changing clothes, maintaining ordnance, and maintaining military camp facilities. As for the real salary of the military salary, it is actually very little, because there is a large amount of land in the Beijing camp, which is used to raise soldiers according to Zhu Yuanzhang's conception back then.

As for whether these lands are now raising soldiers or nobles, or even raising a large number of hereditary officers, I'm sorry, the imperial court doesn't ask about this......

So every time the Beijing camp was transferred to start a big job, the unlucky ones were the people below. Not only do they not get paid most of the time, but they even have to bring their own dry food to work, and only occasionally when the amount of work is too heavy, or when the time to deliver the project is very tight and they need to work in shifts, the imperial court will give a little salary as a subsidy - this discretion, if there is half of the normal wage in the market, then the people in Beijing can burn high incense to celebrate.

However, this situation was broken after Gao Pragmatic established the new Production and Construction Corps, because according to Gao Pragmatic's regulations, no matter what work the Production and Construction Corps does, it must consider the issue of income - at least you can't lose money.

This is a bit troublesome, although Zhu Yingzhen and others actually don't care about the Ministry of Industry calling the Production and Construction Corps, because they have long been used to it, and to be honest, it is not them who are unlucky.

But now it is different, the nature of the production and construction corps is different from that of the Beijing camp in the past, and it now needs to be accounted! Gao pragmatic stipulated that the production and construction corps should implement a set of revenue and expenditure management processes similar to those in the Jinghua system, and this account should be handed over to the military department for review and approval—of course, it was actually handed over to him, the assistant director of the Beijing Battalion, for approval and approval.

In this way, the Ministry of Industry directly called the people of the Production and Construction Corps to repair the Shou Palace, and the biggest trouble was that Gao Pragmatic was stuck here, without his approval, Zhu Yingzhen and they did not dare to release people at all, otherwise the accounts would not be matched at that time, and Gao Pragmatic would dare to let them post their own money.

Everything else is easy to say, how can you bear to post money yourself? So Zhu Yingzhen and the others discussed and discussed, but in the end they could only report the problem to Gao Pragmatic.

We really can't figure it out, so let's go to the Ministry of War and fight a lawsuit with the Ministry of Industry.

Originally, after Zhu Yingzhen explained this matter, he was a little worried that Gao Pragmatic would not intervene directly, because the style of civil officials has always been like this: I just have to explain the task, if you military ministers can't do it well, it is your own incompetence.

However, Gao Pragmatic's reaction was much more than the nobles expected, Gao Pragmatic not only did not shirk, but nodded again and again, praising "Good! It is very good that you can strictly adhere to the system and regulations of the Production and Construction Corps, and the headquarters is very pleased. ”

Although Gao Shishi smiled, because he did not call himself "I" this time, but changed to "Motobudo", which means that he is now starting to talk about business as an assistant Jingying Rongzheng, so all the nobles also subconsciously sat up straight, looking like they were listening to the teachings.

However, everyone still has no bottom in their hearts: although praise is good, this thing is worthless, and the key is that Gao Pragmatic is unwilling to directly help solve the problem.

Knowing what the nobles were, of course, they would not be disappointed, but after a moment of silence, he smiled and said: "You may think that this matter only needs to be negotiated with the Ministry of Industry, but this idea is a big mistake, the key to this matter is not actually in the Ministry of Industry, nor in the Ministry of War. ”

All the nobles were stunned, and Zhang Yuangong interjected: "Where is that?" Then he asked himself and added: "Do you want to find the cabinet?" ”

Gao pragmatic shook his head: "The cabinet will definitely report to the past, but the most important thing is the emperor." ”

Everyone suddenly realized, and listened to Gao Pragmatic add: "Originally, the transfer of people from Beijing to start a big project had to be approved by the emperor, and this time the Ministry of Industry was transferred for the purpose of repairing the Shou Palace...... As long as the emperor understands the difficulties of the Production and Construction Corps and is willing to support the restructuring of the Production and Construction Corps, then this matter will naturally take a turn for the worse, and even change the past process and establish a new set of methods. ”

Zhang Wubo Yang Bing didn't want to speak, but he was signaled by Zhu Yingzhen and Zhang Yuangong's eyes, and had to stand up and ask sensitive topics, he coughed dryly, and asked embarrassedly: "Gong Bao's words are reasonable." But this matter ...... Well, after all, it's for the emperor to repair the longevity palace, and it stands to reason that we should do it......"

, that's not what you're talking about, and that's not what you're asking.

Gao pragmatic interrupted directly: "Uncle does he want to ask: The production and construction corps actually has to collect money for the emperor's longevity palace before he is willing to start construction, will the emperor be angry because of this?" ”

"Uh......" Yang Bing hesitated for a moment, and said with an embarrassed smile: "This, Gong Bao really ...... Sure enough, the eyes of the law are like torches. ”

Gao pragmatically smiled and said lightly: "You can rest assured, since the new system is determined by the Ministry of Education, the responsibility of convincing the emperor should naturally be borne by the Ministry of Education." ”
