Later, a palace maid and eunuch brought dishes, and they were all delicious, among which there were many dishes that Zhu Linmiao recognized, but I didn't see a plate with a cost of less than three taels.

Even the wooden table for setting the dishes is finely carved from the finest golden silk nanmu, and the patterns are mostly decorated with false gold, which is obviously expensive.

Sure enough, there is money! Zhu Linmiao nodded secretly in her heart, today's banquet alone is enough to build a Galen warship of more than 100 tons.

Thinking of this, his sense of urgency to recover the more prosperous Nan Zhili immediately increased a few points. With the land of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, that is, the current Nanzhili to Zhejiang, it can be regarded as getting the money bag and granary of the Ming Dynasty.

Even the key products exported overseas - silk, tea, porcelain and the like - are also highly produced here. Ningbo and Shanghai are extremely important foreign trade ports.

He was thinking in his heart that after straightening out the taxes in Zhejiang, he would be able to start a few more warships of more than 500 tons, and suddenly the piano in the hall gradually rose, and a group of graceful dancers entered and danced with the music.

At first, Zhu Linmiao only cared about eating with the music, and occasionally exchanged a few words with Zhu Yihai, but after a while, he noticed that the atmosphere in the hall was a little strange.

The officers of the Long Wei Army were fine, eating, drinking, and laughing happily, while the Zhejiang officials seemed to be preoccupied, and from time to time they exchanged heads and ears, or came to the vicinity of the Long Wei officers and whispered to ask something.

He frowned, and was about to ask King Lu if there was anything wrong, when he saw Guo Gaozhi, the "servant of the Ministry of Officials" in Zhejiang, and a few people beside him glanced at each other, as if he had made a lot of determination, and walked up to Zhu Linmiao with a glass.

"His Royal Highness is an immortal hero, a pillar of the Ming Dynasty, and the world admires ......"

Guo Gaozhi praised Zhu Linmiao up and down, and then added, "The lower officials have the courage to pay tribute to His Royal Highness on behalf of the courtiers." "The post of secretary of the Zhejiang Domain Ministry is vacant, and he is barely qualified to represent these officials.

Zhu Linmiao picked up the wine glass and was about to drink it, but saw that Guo Gaozhi was only holding the wine glass, and praised Longwu again.

Zhu Linmiao sniffed the wine in the cup, and was pondering what he meant, when a Zhejiang official stood up with a cup in his hand, "What Lord Guo said is extremely true, the first emperor was a martial artist, a hero, and he also had a lot of kindness to me in Zhejiang. ”

"Yes, yes, in the early years of Longwu, the first emperor issued an edict to make His Royal Highness King Lu return to the domain, and at that time, there were traitors who obstructed it, and it has been delayed to this day."

Another official bowed his hand out of thin air in the direction of Tianxing Mansion and continued: "The first emperor is gracious, not only is it extremely important for His Royal Highness King Lu to suffer from the rebellious ministers, so that His Royal Highness is still in Zhejiang, but also shows the world that Fujian and Zhejiang have no distinction between each other, and the courtiers can continue to hold the same official position in the imperial court......

His words were met with immediate approval.

Only then did Zhu Linmiao understand what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd, it turned out that he wanted to compete for a high position and re-enter the center of power in the Taizheng Dynasty. Seeing that these people cooperated tacitly and spoke in unison, it should have been discussed a long time ago.

Also, when it comes to one's own career, it is necessary to reach a united front as soon as possible.

Zhu Linmiao shook her head in her heart.

Not to mention the large number of officials in the Zhejiang Domain, it is also a complete court structure, and it is impossible to fully cram into the political system of the Taizheng Dynasty, even if they are reluctantly allowed to resume their original duties in Tianxing Mansion, there will be many problems.

First of all, there is party strife, and there will inevitably be a struggle between the Zhejiang Party and the officials of the former Thai Expedition for their own interests. Historically, the Ming Dynasty died in party struggle, and he must not sit idly by and watch the soil of the party appear.

Secondly, these Zhejiang officials have no understanding of the new policies of the Thai Expeditionary Dynasty, whether it is the reform of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry, the new tax and price policies of the Ministry of Households, the establishment of the new Propaganda Department, or the transformation of the old Ming army into the police, and the adjustment of the official system, etc., which of them can take it?

In the end, it is not a superfluous person who occupies a position, so that the decree is wasted.

This kind of thing is related to the stability of the court and the future development of the Ming Dynasty, and we must not get used to the bad mistakes of these people. Zhu Linmiao drank the wine in the cup first, and then smiled and signaled the officials to be quiet, and pretended not to understand what they meant, and said with a pleasant face: "The first emperor was wise, and it was a last resort to hang outside the court at the beginning, but now that he has returned to orthodoxy, he naturally does not distinguish between each other, and you are still the courtiers of the Taizheng Dynasty." ”

When everyone heard what the auxiliary king said, they all thought that he had compromised. There is no dissatisfaction in my heart, we have connected almost all the ministers of Zhejiang, and no matter how capable he is, he will not dare to disobey the will of so many people.

I only heard Zhu Linmiao continue: "Originally, I planned to let the Ministry of Officials make specific arrangements for the Zhejiang Propaganda Department, but since everyone has talked about it, then I will disclose some in advance." ”

He first looked at Qian Sule, "Lord Qian, this time you have made meritorious efforts to advise and be promoted to the post of political envoy of Zhejiang." ”

The officials in Zhejiang were stunned when they heard the words - the political envoy?! Qian Sule was originally a "cabinet scholar", although he was a five-rank official, but he was in charge of real power. Now he has been "promoted" to a second-rank political envoy, and it seems that he has been promoted several levels in a row, but he has changed from a central official to a local official.

Before Qian Sule came back to his senses, he heard Zhu Linmiao continue: "Zhang Mingzhen, the former admiral of the water division, was promoted to the commander of the Zhejiang capital. "This is also promoted from the second grade.

"Xiong Rulin, Lord Xiong was promoted to the post of Zhejiang Inspector." It is also promoted from the fifth rank of the cabinet "cabinet scholar" to the third grade.

"Zhang Huangyan, the former imperial historian of the capital, was promoted to the commander of the capital......

"Zheng Zunqian, the former governor of the left capital, was promoted to the ...... of the political envoy of Zhejiang"

"The former Zuodu Yushi Zhang Congyi was promoted......

“……”

He only remembered that some of the more well-known officials had assigned them all the main posts in Zhejiang, and the others could only deal with the past with one sentence, "The rest will be arranged by the officials."

Among them, except for Zhang Huangyan, who was seriously promoted by two levels, the rest have become Zhejiang magistrates, but most of them have been upgraded.

After a moment of silence, the bottom finally broke out, and first an official in his sixties walked out and said in a loud voice: "Your Highness, this is not the intention of the first emperor, I am afraid that the people of Zhejiang will not be convinced!" ”

Someone next to him immediately answered: "Yes, the first emperor said, 'You can hold the same official position in the imperial court', but now no one in Zhejiang can enter the court." ”

"His Royal Highness King Lu is sincere to return to the vassal, I didn't expect the court to treat us like this......"

"The bones of the first emperor are not cold......"

Seeing this, Zhu Linmiao smiled coldly, glanced at the ministers, and said in a deep voice: "When the first emperor issued the edict, did you ever be so righteous and awe-inspiring?

"That's right, the first emperor said that 'you can hold the same official position', but it was in the first year of Longwu. If at that time, you are righteous and straightforward, so that the Zhejiang domain will be edicted, and the power of Fujian and Zhejiang will be united, Boluo will not be able to easily cross Qiantang, occupy Zhejiang, and commit Fujing!

"Perhaps, the first emperor will not be harmed by the captives!"

He took a deep breath and raised his voice, "The opportunity was in front of you, what did you all do then?!"

"Since there was no edict at that time, what is the benefit of mentioning the edict of the emperor now?"
