Chapter 917: There are a few people in the world

Chapter 917: There are a few people in the world

Since the beginning of this year, there has been an earthquake in Nanjing, followed by an earthquake in Beijing, and the number of earthquakes of all sizes in two consecutive months has been no less than seven or eight times. In addition, Xuande had such a fuss in the early years, so the theory of moving the capital that had been discontinued in the DPRK and China was gradually thrown out by some people. After all, in the eyes of everyone, Jinling was originally the fundamental place of the Ming Dynasty, and it was much more important than today's Jingshi.

But this matter was in a lot of uproar when the fire in the three major halls was in the first place, and then the official was exiled for the crime, and the matter was over, and now there is not such a big momentum, Zhu Zhanji just reprimanded a few people sharply, and the matter was suppressed. But immediately after, some people raised the matter of Nanjing officials' dereliction of duty. Among them, Zhao Meng missed writing official documents because he was drunk, and Li Qing failed to control a group of troublesome soldiers because he was in charge of the military department, so he was also impeached. Not only that, but one of the most daring imperial historians directly quoted the contents of the two private letters, and for a while, those Nanjing officials who had long faded out of people's sight suddenly appeared in front of the courtiers again.

Nowadays, in addition to a few Shangshu in Nanjing, there are several old Shangshu such as Zhang Ben and Guo Zi, who have already been Zhishi, which can be regarded as a real pension base camp. Compared with those who are already idle, Li Qing made the young emperor disgusted because he repeatedly advised Zhu Zhanji to go on a less safari, so compared with the impeachment of Zhao Qian, there were more people who targeted Li Qing. After all, Li Qing had worked in several yamen such as the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War, and his strict nature offended many people. What I didn't expect was that after the overwhelming recital entered the palace, there was no follow-up, and when it finally flowed out again through the cabinet a few days later, there were a lot of harshly worded Zhu criticisms on it. As for the imperial history that was the most outstanding at the beginning, he was directly demoted to Qiongzhou Mansion.

Just when the newcomers wanted to knock down the old people and make sure they vacated their seats, King Yue didn't survive until the day when the dust settled. He never thought that before the palace was built, he would be driven away in a miserable and miserable manner. On the day he entered the palace to bid farewell to the Empress Dowager Zhang, he made enough gestures and kowtowed and shed tears, but in exchange for only his mother's shaking head and sighing, he finally had to pull a long figure out of the palace under the sunset in the west. Coincidentally, when he was about to arrive at Donghua Gate, he met Zhang Yue, who was coming out of the Wenhua Palace. At this moment, the two pairs of eyes looked at each other, and sparks suddenly appeared.

Compared with the princes of the Tang and Song dynasties, the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty were more than a step higher in terms of status and other treatment, so Zhang Yue was very meticulous in saluting and bowing, and then retreated to the side to make way. However, King Yue didn't mean to leave, but walked straight over, because he smiled and said: "Lord Zhang, it's a coincidence, there is a Yue character in your name, and there is also a Yue character in the title of this domain." I don't know if it's because one mountain in the middle of the court can't tolerate two crossings, and less than a year after you came back from Jiaoluan, this domain is going to be a domain. ”

There are eunuchs behind King Yue, and Zhang Yue himself also has a small eunuch who leads the way, so those sabre-rattling words are not suitable for this time to say, he remembered what Yang Shiqi and others said when they took the table word for themselves, so he said unhurriedly: "Your Royal Highness said this joke, in fact, aside from the meaning of the place name expressed by the Yue character, there is a way that the extreme of things must be reversed, and the water is full of overflow, this Yue word is a little too much, so Yang Ge Lao and the two Shen Bachelors gave me the meaning of the table word that day, and they intentionally took the Yuan Festival." , that is, I want to be able to have a beginning and an end, and be honest and self-restrained, so there is no one mountain that cannot be crossed. ”

Compared with knowledge, although King Yue has now sent two more instructors and left the pavilion to study very early, he is a vassal king with golden branches and jade leaves, how can he spend so much effort on these things. Therefore, being blocked back by Zhang Yue's words, he could only glance at Zhang Yue fiercely, and then said with a pun: "Master Zhang is a young man who has three official residences, and it is rare to look at ancient and modern times." Just too conspicuous will inevitably become the target of public criticism, please be more lenient when governing, and don't lose the way of forgiveness. ”

In this way, Zhang Yue naturally accepted it with a smile, but when he watched King Yue leave the palace surrounded by a large group of eunuchs from afar, he knew in his heart that unless there was a big change, the younger brother of the Son of Heaven and his mother would not be able to come back. He had heard that there had been changes in the history books on Yingzong's accession to the throne, and everyone said that the queen mother wanted to establish King Xiang, but later Yingzong ascended the throne. Under the Ming system, the young lord will never have a good impact on the whole world, so the top priority is not so much about those changes, but so that Zhu Zhanji can live well.

He had already written to Feng Yuanming, but the problem was that he was not sure if he could find him, and he didn't know if this doctor, who had once been a imperial doctor, and now was practicing medicine in the vast grassland to save people, and was even known as a holy doctor, had any breakthrough experience.

The verbal confrontation between King Yue and Zhang Yue was in the palace, so naturally it quickly reached Zhu Zhanji's ears. These three words and two words are just that the king of Yue is a little dissatisfied with Zhang Yue, or he is full of resentment about leaving Beijing to become a vassal, but the emperor naturally will not simply look at it like this. Just a few days ago, Dongchang just reported that Chen Shan had some suspicious behavior in the accident at the end of last year, and although he did not summon anyone to question him face-to-face, he also paid a lot of attention. These days, the impeachment of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate continues, and he pressed the fold at the same time to make people question, and as a result, Zhang Ying was found, and he couldn't help but be disappointed in his heart.

Among the speakers in the East Palace, except for the two who were imprisoned before, Chen Shan and Zhang Ying were the most likely, so after he ascended the throne, he transferred people to the cabinet, but he didn't expect that the two had not yet gained a firm foothold, so they had conflicts with Yang Shiqi and other old ministers on major policies, and then even secretly fought constantly. He was very disgusted with the abolition of the public because of his private affairs, and he soon withdrew from the cabinet, one went to Nanjing, and the other was in charge of the inner study hall, but he didn't expect that in the end, the two were still not giving up.

"How many people in the world have the highest public heart?"

With a sigh, he said to Wang Jin, who had reported the matter on the side: "Send someone to Nanjing and bring a few words to Zhang Ying." Let's just say that I still remember the love he had for the study at the beginning, and asked him not to force me to do sad things. Also, you go to see Zhang Yue and say that this Dragon Boat Festival shooting Liu Zhen was not enjoyable, and he will go to Xiyuan to shoot hunting on a certain day, let him prepare and prepare, and he, the squire of the military department, will also show his hand. I heard that the batch of students in martial arts has made some progress, so I want to pick twenty of them, and I want to see what they are capable of! ”

Wang Jin hurriedly responded, and then remembered the matter of asking Zhang Yue when he saw him a while ago, and said with a smile: "There is another matter, the matter of the reclassification of the twenty-four yamen is small and the matter of Fan Gonggong Jin Gonggong Lu Gonggong has been discussed, but a few days ago, it happened that Zheng Gonggong, the official supervisor, was seriously ill, although the imperial doctor has been going to take a look, it seems that it can't last long." It must be known that Gonggong Zheng was the most useful person of Emperor Taizong back then, and he has repeatedly made outstanding achievements in going to sea, isn't it ......"

"Zheng He......" Zhu Zhanji suddenly remembered the fold that Zhang Yue handed over before, and the reason why he did not approve it for a long time was because Zhang Yue said that he wanted to customize the system of opening the sea, and the system of the navy was as clear as the system of the guard, so he was worried about the reaction of the ministers, so he delayed mentioning it, at this time, since Wang Jin only said Zheng He, he nodded after a little thought and said, "Zheng He has traveled overseas for many years, and his merits must be rewarded. ”

As soon as these words came out, Wang Jin hurriedly thanked him, and when he withdrew from the Qianqing Palace, he was also excited in his heart. Naturally, eunuchs are inevitably inclined to each other, but Zheng He, who is about to die, can give such titles, which is naturally an incentive for others. Moreover, Zhang Yue can speak fairly for Zheng He, who has not a deep friendship, let alone with others.

"Gonggong Zheng, I just hope you can get through this time...... This work on the sea, the younger generation in the palace still has to be carried by you. ”

Without the inner study hall, the rest of the eunuchs did not have the good fortune of their group of friends, so they had to try to see if they could get out of the fleet that went to the West.

And when Zhang Yue got the news from Wang Jin, he was also very happy. Therefore, Wang Jin explained the words that should be explained clearly, saying that he was going to Zheng Mansion to take a look first, and when he brought Zheng He good news, he also personally delivered it to the door. As soon as the people left, he went back to the room and stretched his waist, and sent someone to Wushu to send a letter, asking Shi Heng to pick a twenty people out to prepare to come to Rixiyuan to shoot hunting, and then he pulled his legs and went to Xu Kuo's place.

As soon as he entered the house, he saw that there was an empty wall in the huge room, Xu Kuo was directing a few soaps to stick something on the wall, he couldn't help but be a little strange, and only after he stepped forward did he find that it was a shrunken chart, and his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he hurriedly asked: "Old Xu, when was this drawn?" ”

"When? This is what I dug out of the box, not the latest chart they brought back this time, but I felt that it was a pity that this sketch map was abandoned, so I simply hung it up. I just didn't expect that the surrounding Fanbang barbarians were small enough, and they were all slap-sized places, so it was no wonder that they retreated when they saw those Shenwei ships. ”

Zhang Yue is a person who has seen those satellite surveying and mapping maps in later generations, and naturally knows that this nautical chart is quite rough, and it is completely inaccurate and inaccurate, but he is completely black about the scale and orientation of the map, and he can't take out the extremely unreliable direction to bluff people, so he saw Xu Kuo looking at the map with mixed feelings, but fortunately today's civil officials are still quite convincing, even Xu Kuo, who is a lot older, can accept those things in the West. Thinking that he had already distributed all the seeds sent by Wang Jinghong, there seemed to be corn and potatoes among them, but he was not sure whether he had discovered America, and he couldn't help but look at the huge sea chart with fascination.

"Although the four divisions of the Ministry of War, the Department of Staff, the Department of Driving, the Department of Military Selection, the Department of Arsenal, and the Department of Espionage are under the Department of Staff, if they are really duties, they are actually separated, and I think they can be separated in the future." Zhang Yue thought that sooner or later he would have to leave the military department, and couldn't help but say to Xu Kuo next to him, "Moreover, if the Shenwei Ship and the Shenwei Guard can become a system and survive forever like the Guard, I think these two should be separated from the ordinary military selection arsenal and set up a separate division." ”

"Are you so sure that you can move the emperor and the ministers? You must know that there are many criticisms of these two nowadays, not to mention the establishment of a special department in the Ministry of War, which is equivalent to making this a system. Even the household department will think that you are troublesome, after all, one more Lang and one more outsider are in charge, which is one more money...... Although this is not a lot of money! ”

Xu Kuo and Zhang Yue's personal relationship is already very good now, at this time he couldn't help but joke, seeing that Zhang Yue was thinking about it seriously, he coughed dryly: "If Huang Laoshangshu can work for a few more years, it will be okay, but unfortunately he is also old." At the beginning, because Jian Xia was old, the emperor relieved the ministry and concentrated on planning major events, only pre-meeting, but I was afraid that he would not be able to work for long and would follow the same to solve the ministry affairs. However, after all, he has been in the diplomatic relationship for too long, and his understanding of the DPRK-China aircraft service is not as good as that of others, so he is afraid that he will have to retreat to Nanjing. If there is anything you might as well discuss with him now, lest it be too late to plan later. ”

"What, what wind did Xu Lao hear?"

"It's not a rumor. When I went to the household department to run errands that day, Huang Laoshangshu sent me out of the house, but I stumbled and almost tripped over. Later, a soap Li also said that Huang Laoshangshu had been in Jiaolu for a long time, his legs and feet were inconvenient, and his body was difficult to adapt to the climate in the north. It's not that you don't know how abrasive it is to go to the morning every morning, cold in winter and hot in summer, and you can't survive if you are not in good health. ”

So, it's likely that the head of the household is going to be vacant again?

Zhang Yue had a very good impression of Huang Fu, but when he thought of this trembling old man, who had to take care of complicated household affairs with difficulty, and had to go to court with these young people regardless of the wind or rain, he couldn't help but shake his head. No matter what good muscles and bones you boil, I am afraid that they will be exhausted in Jiaolu for more than ten years. Only like Yang Shiqi can survive day after day, as if he is tireless.

After discussing military affairs with Xu Kuo for a while, Zhang Yue took his leave. When it was time to disperse, when he came out of the yamen, he saw the man who was smiling and leading the horse to stand, and when he was stunned, he was overjoyed and had to go forward, and immediately the man jumped down neatly. The two of you look at me, after all, they are afraid to come to the yamen of the six ministries where people come and go, so they only say a few words of greeting and go back to the yamen to go through the paperwork and various procedures, and then leave together. It wasn't until they entered the Wugong Hutong and dismounted in front of the Du Mansion that the two of them each stretched out their hands, but they clasped their hands.

"You're finally back!"

"It's back, and it almost didn't freeze me to death! Yuan Festival, have a good drink tonight, I have to get you and my father-in-law drunk, my alcohol consumption has increased greatly now! ”
