Chapter 187: Persuasion
"Buy a Caesar?"
After Zhao Shizhen came back, Chen Mu listened to him talk to him with great interest about buying a Caesar to make, so he held his stomach and laughed for a long time, waving his hand and saying: "It's not suitable, it's not suitable, Chen is a dignified Son of Heaven of the Ming Dynasty and is an earl, what kind of Caesar should be in the place where the bird doesn't lay eggs, and it's seven or eight hundred thousand taels of silver, why don't you have that money?" ”
The mechanics unit is quite contemplative, and plans to spend money to buy himself a Caesar...... Chen Mu pondered, isn't that the big leader among the seven tribal chiefs?
"That's their emperor!"
Zhao Shizhen's eyes lit up: "If Dashuai is their Caesar, wouldn't it be easier to control them?" ”
"Then even if it is the emperor, it is up to our emperor to do it, and then talk about it...... Have you ever seen an emperor canonized by the presiding officer of a monastery? ”
"If this matter is reported to the cabinet, the next time the saliva of the court speaker can drown Chen, Zou Zhixian." Chen Mu picked his chin: "Did you say it?" ”
"Huh?" Zou Yuanbiao was wandering outside the world, and nodded instinctively: "Yes, yes, what did the big handsome just say?" ”
Seeing that Chen Mu ignored him, he smiled and said, "Just now, the official was thinking about managing the affairs of the county, and he didn't listen carefully, what Caesar?" ”
Chen Mu rolled his eyes angrily.
Zou Yuanbiao is really tired, the affairs in the county are endless, the autonomy of the villages has only been a few months, and there are a large number of people who are too lazy to farm and sell their land to others and go to the county seat to covet pleasures.
He has a solution, land annexation is not a bad thing, but it needs the permission of the military government yamen - to reorganize these idle people, march to those borderless lands in the north, continue to absorb more aborigines, and cultivate more land.
It's not that everyone who sells their land is greedy for pleasure, some people are simply dissatisfied with the status quo, and everywhere there will be such people, but these people make up a larger proportion of Asian immigrants.
Some immigrants have been in the village for two months and know how to fly birds, so their minds are idle, thinking that it is similar to being a soldier anyway, why not just find a way to join the Beiyang Army, and maybe be an officer to glorify their ancestors.
There is no one in the Ming Dynasty who is more positive than the Beiyang Army, and they are surrounded by vivid examples of changing fate, and this enthusiasm also affects a considerable proportion of immigrants.
Chen Mu moved his fingers, and Zhao Shizhen willingly relayed the news he got from Fu Ge'er to Zou Yuanbiao.
In the process of Zhao Shizhen's narration, you can find that Zou Bald's face has changed and changed.
"The marshal just asked, if the marshal sends such a letter to the imperial court, and the military government strives to give this title to the emperor concurrently, what will be the reaction of the imperial court."
Zou Yuanbiao's demeanor was very solemn, and he even stood up from the chair of the military yamen, buttoned his black gauze hat upright, and turned sideways to the west where the imperial court was located. ”
"How the adults of the court will answer, I don't know, but this matter is not appropriate, since the time of the three emperors and five emperors, to the Qin Dynasty to pass on the jade seal of the country, 'ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang', to the first Han Dynasty and there is 'heaven and man induction' said, Your Majesty said that the 'Son of Heaven' is to respect God, the current official hall of the three people, I am afraid they do not believe in God."
As soon as Zou Yuanbiao's voice fell, Chen Mu and Zhao Shizhen said in unison, surprised: "You don't believe it either?" ”
"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and below is the people of the Son of Heaven, the ancestor said that there is a permanence in heaven, neither for the survival of Yao nor for the destruction, but on the contrary, it is humane and promising, and it is used to control the mandate of heaven, what does it matter to God?" Zou Yuanbiao said and arched his hand to Chen Mu: "How many gods has the handsome man sealed?" ”
Chen Mu hurriedly waved his hand: "I don't have it, don't talk nonsense." That's all I wrote to the cabinet, and the cabinet reported to His Majesty, Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and whoever is a god is a god. ”
"Huh...... Scold...... Scold! ”
Zhao Shizhen let out a very perfunctory smirk, if it was all sealed by His Majesty, it would be very hard to seal hundreds of gods.
Zou Yuanbiao was noncommittal to Chen Mu's words, he felt that it was probably because he was far away from the rivers and lakes, he had never been close to the real court officials, and he had no experience in local governance, and he was almost hit by the board when he established the power center recently, and he had almost no fear of the imperial court.
And the atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty, and the almost outrageous tolerance of civil officials, said that Jiajingye's confused old man Hai is still alive and well, what is he afraid of?
"Zhao Jun's 'Caesar', saying that he is a king is just a joke, looking at his selection is like a leader, not to mention that there is a leader in this world who can be bought with money? It's just the leader, how can He De be the title and bear the name of His Majesty? ”
The more Zou Bald said, the more impassioned he became, and even used gestures later.
"If the marshal returns this book to the country, it will be a great insult to the country, even if others don't say it, we and the other five gentlemen will ......."
Chen Mu sat on the chair and listened, the ice wall of the Yamen had just been replaced with new ice and it was still a little cold, he was covered with a thin blanket of aborigines, his elbows supported the armrests of the chair as a fulcrum, his palms were put together and he slowly grinded, and when he heard the movements of his hands stopped, he raised his head and said, "How are you five gentlemen?" ”
The atmosphere is a bit solemn.
Zou Yuanbiao's movements paused very unnaturally, he closed his mouth and stared, and his outstretched arm slowly withdrew his last two hands and clasped his fists in front of him: "I am saying that I want to wait for the five gentlemen, and I also want to admonish the handsome!" ”
Chen Mu was very satisfied with this answer, it seemed that Zou Zhixian was not bald, but indeed stronger.
It's not that Zou Bald is instigated, it's just that he suddenly remembered that although the world is big, there seems to be no place for it to stand except for the Oriental Military Mansion - he doesn't want to be re-elected as the magistrate.
"I thought you were going to impeach me, okay, you will have more and more dealings with Europeans in the future, don't think about these things for Chen, what Caesar and the king are useless and vain, if Chen is greedy for false fame, please ask Your Majesty to make me the invincible generalissimo of the universe before going to sea."
To be honest, Chen Mu himself was surprised that he didn't feel ashamed at all when he said such a stupid word.
Zhao Shizhen, Zou Yuanbiao: ???
Zou Yuanbiao asked: "Marshal, this marshal, they are all second- and third-grade martial arts, what are you doing with this thing?" ”
In the early years, there was a marshal in the Ming Dynasty, and the Marshal of Zhuyi was set up under the Privy Council, but later it was changed to the governor of Chengdu.
Zhao Shizhen's reaction was very interesting, he first wrinkled his nose as if he smelled something, and then pouted: "This doesn't sound like an official position, like a cannon name." ”
General Zhenshuo, the invincible marshal, sounds quite good.
Zhao Shizhen said: "Dashuai, when we research new artillery, let's call it this." ”
Chen Mu nodded noncommittally, the naming of the artillery is an empty word now, there may be no substantial progress in the artillery in the next few decades, and small improvements cannot be called upgrading, Zhao Shizhen likes to let him want to go whatever he wants.
"But you write down this elector and, Caesar, the elector leader that Zou Zhixian just said, when the overall situation in Asia is decided, Daming should find his place in Europa, this elect leader is very interesting."
When Chen Mu said this, it was Zhao Shizhen's turn to be stunned, and he asked, "Isn't the marshal not going to let the emperor take this title?" ”
"Of course, whoever wants to do it, we can consider taking the canonization right for Your Majesty next."
