Chapter 218: I Want a Helper!

"Your Majesty!"

Zhu Jie hurriedly said, "Wu Sangui's ability is naturally undoubted, but the minister is worried that you will execute his father Wu Xiang and cause his rebellion, when the time comes, if Wu Sangui really rebels against the water and introduces the Qing army into Guanzhong, the 100,000 Qing army will be difficult for the imperial court to control......

"This ......"

Chongzhen hesitated for a moment and replied: "Forget it, Zhu Aiqing, the so-called suspicious people don't need to be used, don't be suspicious in employing people, let's do this for the time being, and wait for Sun Chuanting to return to Beijing before making plans." ”

Zhu Jie's face was speechless, specially, at this time, you think that you don't doubt the use of people, and the suspects don't use them, why didn't you give Yuan Chonghuan enough trust at the beginning? Why don't you give Lu Xiangsheng enough trust? Why don't you give Hong Chengchou enough trust? At this critical juncture, you choose to trust Wu Sangui, it's really a special brain in water!

However, the emperor is the emperor after all, no matter how unwilling Zhu Jie is, his little thin arm can't twist Chongzhen's thigh......

"Passed the decree, crowned Zhu Jie as the governor of Henan, led the Tongzhou Town under his command to send troops to Henan, encircled and suppressed Li Zicheng's thieves, Henan and the surrounding prefectures and counties should be military and political affairs, all by Zhu Jie acted cheaply, Zhu Jie arrived in Japan, Sun Chuanting immediately returned to Beijing, crowned the crown prince Taibao, and served as the governor of Gyeonggi military affairs! Zhu Aiqing, what else do you have to say? ”

The governor of Henan, that is the feudal official of Zheng Erpin, in history, there has never been a general in his early twenties who held such a prominent official position! However, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces did not have that unconvinced, relying on Zhu Jie's ability, as the governor of Henan, there was absolutely nothing excessive, and everyone only had envy and jealousy in their hearts, who made the family have great ability?

Zhu Jie hesitated for a moment and replied: "Your Majesty, this time the emperor went on the expedition, the minister only brought 30,000 soldiers to the expedition, and his subordinates urgently needed talents for military affairs, and asked the emperor to issue an order to transfer some capable ministers and officials to accompany the army to counsel military affairs......"

Chongzhen nodded and replied: "I just said, Henan's military and political affairs, all paid to you, counselor military affairs, as long as you fancy which, whatever you transfer, the military department, the official department, and the household department are not allowed to stop, and they can work together, the civil officials from the fourth grade, the military generals are under the third grade, all can be appointed first, and then report to the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War, and I will immediately issue a letter of seal......

All the ministers gasped, according to the imperial court official system, the imperial court officials can recommend talents to the imperial court and serve as official positions, this is okay, and they can even directly recommend a cloth cloth to serve as the prefect or even the third division; However, as the emperor said to Zhu Jie today, I have never seen it, Zhu Jie can directly appoint officials, although the follow-up needs to be reported to the imperial court for review, but this is already remarkable, that is the power to hold the lifeblood of the promotion of officials, even if it is a secretary of the ministry, there is no such power!

"Your Majesty, this ...... Is this excessive, the imperial court has never had such a regulation, the officials recommended by Lord Zhu Jie to be appointed are outstanding, but if they are mediocre, they are ......"

Ni Yuanlu hurriedly stopped.

"Okay, Ni Aiqing, don't say it, it's a matter of urgency, Zhu Aiqing led 30,000 soldiers to encircle and suppress Li Zicheng among the 200,000, if I don't give him special power, how can I do it all? Otherwise, let you lead 30,000 soldiers to exterminate the thieves, and I will give you the same power, and even the power to appoint governors, how can I ......"

Chongzhen was impatient.

Ni Yuanlu's face turned dark, wiped it, let me replace Zhu Jie to encircle and suppress Li Zicheng? Isn't that a joke? If I had that ability, it wouldn't be the head of the household, it should be the head of the war, so I'd better rest......

"Your Majesty, the minister asked for the transfer of the Qintian Supervisor Zheng Tang Ruowang to accompany the army to the military affairs of the counselor, to manage the firearms affairs of the army, and to be transferred to the military affairs of Song Yingxing, the governor of Bozhou, Nanzhili, to accompany the military affairs of the army, and concurrently serve as the Tongzhi of Kaifeng Prefecture, and to manage the food and salary; Transferred to the Hanlin Academy, Fang Yizhi was appointed as a counselor of the army for military affairs, recruited Jiangnan celebrities Gu Yanwu and Huang Zongxi, and Zhu Zhiyu entered the military camp to serve! ”

Zhu Jie immediately said a series of names.

Chongzhen felt that his mind was a little swollen, and he didn't know where Zhu Jie had recruited these people, except for one Tang Ruowang who knew it because he was a foreigner, the other people were not very clear, even if Zhu Jie wanted to transfer people, he was looking for some people with real talent and real learning, these people were either Western barbarians, or state and county officials, and the remaining few people were not even officials, just Bai Ding, only this Zhu Zhiyu was still a character!

Chongzhen was very impressed by Zhu Zhiyu, two years ago, Chongzhen once again asked the officials to recommend talents, at that time, the ministers publicly recommended this Zhu Zhiyu first in civil and military affairs, and he was a romantic figure with both civil and military skills, but unfortunately, this person just did not want to enter the court as an official, and it was when he was in the prime of life, he retired to the mountains and forests......

Chongzhen rubbed his temples and asked, "Zhu Aiqing, these people you are talking about are really great talents in the country and the country?" Except for this Zhu Zhiyu and Tang Ruowang, I haven't even heard of anyone else! ”

Zhu Jie said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the so-called art industry has a specialization, these people may not be the great talents of governing the country and the country, but in their respective fields, they are definitely outstanding figures, the ministers have not stopped looking for masters from the people these days, just like the first master of the characters can be met but not sought, but these people's talents are definitely enough - Tang Ruowang is proficient in arithmetic and calendar; Song Yingxing is proficient in equipment, mining, and other crafts; Huang Zongxi is also a master of arithmetic, and several other people are also rare talents, let them enter the hall and enter the temple to stabilize the world, it may be difficult for them, but they build guns, repair warships, open mines, and manage military affairs, each of them is a leader, if the minister wants to succeed in this trip, it is inseparable from their ......"

"In this case, I will be allowed to play, these people in the court, immediately let the officials be transferred, far away from the rivers and lakes, seven hundred miles of expedited, special personnel to recruit! As long as you recommend it, I will definitely find a way to dig it up for you! ”

Chongzhen gritted his teeth and whispered.

"We're thanking you, Lord Longen!"

Zhu Jie hurriedly thanked him.

"Zhu Jie, how long do you have to prepare before you can send troops?"

Chongzhen asked again.

Zhu Jie said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the ministers have begun to prepare for the expedition in the past few days, after all, the plague into Henan is a sure thing, how can I not prepare early, return to Tongzhou today, rectify the army, tomorrow at noon, the minister can send troops, the cavalry is led by Shu Xinchen Yang Chengzu, advance lightly, and approach Kaifeng, the minister led the infantry down the canal by boat, went straight to Jining, and then landed from Jining, ready to attack Li Zicheng's flank!" ”
