Things in the court were going on in a very orderly manner, which made Zhu Youxiao breathe a sigh of relief.

At present, this is already the best result for Zhu Youxiao, proving that what he did before was not in vain, and these courtiers are at least capable.

Especially the few cabinet scholars I selected, they really did things beautifully. Although he has not been in power for a long time, he has already straightened out everything, which is a rare ability.

This also proves that Zhu Youxiao's vision is accurate, but there is still a bit of a headache in front of him. Because I am so good at doing things, I am progressing very quickly.

For example, Shen Tingyun, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, asked Zhu Youxiao to go back to rest before, on the one hand, because Shen Tingyun really needed to rest, and he was too busy these days; On the other hand, Zhu Youxiao also hoped that Shen Tingyun would slow down the progress a little, his progress was too fast.

Looking at Shen Tingyun, who came to him again this time, Zhu Youxiao had a big head. Shen Tingyun is really desperate to do things, the key is to do things too fast.

Zhu Youxiao didn't want him to do things so quickly at all, because some things still needed to be dealt with further, but he couldn't say that to Shen Tingyun.

People do things with their hearts, and they can't dampen their enthusiasm.

"Shen Aiqing, I have read all these things you proposed. But I think, isn't your progress a little faster? In this case, there may be some rush, and if there is something unsatisfactory, it will not be good. Zhu Youxiao smiled gently, and there was no other thought on his face.

I don't know if I really didn't understand what Zhu Youxiao meant or pretended to be stupid, Shen Tingyun hurriedly bowed down and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the ministers have already prepared properly, and all aspects have been conceived." If there is something wrong, you can change it now. ”

Zhu Youxiao sighed helplessly, looking at Shen Tingyun's appearance, he also knew that it would be impossible for him not to do it.

In fact, Zhu Youxiao wanted to focus on the internal affairs government first, but now that Shen Tingyun has proposed it, then do as he says.

So Zhu Youxiao nodded, and said with a gentle face: "Then Aiqing will do it, but Aiqing still has to pay attention to rest." ”

Shen Tingyun straightened his back, bowed respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will get things done as soon as possible." ”

Obviously, he didn't listen to his words, and Zhu Youxiao said helplessly: "Since that's the case, then Aiqing will go and get busy." ”

As he spoke, Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and motioned for Shen Tingyun to step back.

"The minister retired." Shen Tingyun agreed, took a few steps back, and then turned around and walked outside.

Looking at Shen Tingyun's back, Zhu Youxiao sighed helplessly, it was still quite tiring to deal with such a courtier.

Turning his head to look at Chen Hong, Zhu Youxiao said, "You go to the Ministry of Industry and explain, let them speed up some progress." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. The slave and maid will go at once. Chen Hong said respectfully.

In Shen Tingyun's arrangement, he is about to prepare to start the exam. In fact, the site of the college has only just been completed.

And now that the academy has not yet been completed, Shen Tingyun has already begun to prepare for the exam. This time, the scale of the exam is bound to not be too large, because it is a voluntary test.

It's not that many people won't want to attend, but the news won't reach that far.

Information in this era is not so developed, and many people are estimated to be unable to catch up with this exam. You must know that when you enter Beijing to take the exam, sometimes you even have to leave a year in advance.

Therefore, the scale of the academy's enrollment this time will inevitably not be very large, and most of the people selected are near Beijing.

So why is Shen Tingyun so anxious?

Zhu Youxiao can guess some of this reason. Because there will be an imperial examination in the third year of the Apocalypse, Shen Tingyun is obviously ready to show his skills in that imperial examination, so he is so anxious, and he has a feeling that time is not waiting, for fear that his academy will be overturned at any time.

However, Zhu Youxiao couldn't say anything, although he knew in his heart that this was impossible.

Of course, there is another aspect, that is, I am not very optimistic about Shen Tingyun, a student of the academy.

Because the rules of the imperial examination are there, the test is the Bagu Wen. Even with Shen Tingyun and others, the students in the academy may not be able to achieve anything.

Because the students of the academy have to learn a lot of other subject knowledge in addition to studying Bagu Wen, they need a new path to advancement. The Internal Affairs Office is actually prepared by Zhu Youxiao for these academy students, which is a way for them to rise.

After leaving the college, he entered the Ministry of Internal Affairs; After working in the Ministry of Internal Affairs for a few years, he went directly to officialdom. In this way, the official career promotion of the students of these academies will be very fast, bypassing the blockade of the imperial examination by the way, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

There will be another group of them who will go out and establish new academies as seeds.

Standing up, Zhu Youxiao sighed.

He really didn't like the feeling of being in a hurry, there was a feeling that the rhythm was disrupted. But there is no way, the courtiers below are urgent, and they are too rushed.

Just as Zhu Youxiao was about to take a break, someone walked in outside

Zhu Youxiao glanced at it, it was the eunuch Fang Zhenghua who served him.

There is a very obvious place where the status of the eunuch in the palace is very obvious, that is, whether he is qualified to serve the emperor in shifts.

When he has this qualification, his status will naturally come up.

In order to show that he valued the other party's Zhenghua, Zhu Youxiao also lined him up. Now that Chen Hong is out, it is normal for Fang Zhenghua to come in and serve.

Glancing at Fang Zhenghua, Zhu Youxiao's face was a little unpleasant and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Looking at Zhu Youxiao's face and hearing his voice, Fang Zhenghua was a little scared, and he really didn't know whether to say it or not.

However, Fang Zhenghua thought about it and still said stubbornly: "Emperor, the cabinet of Xu Ge is here. ”

Zhu Youxiao suddenly smiled bitterly.

Just walked a Shen Tingyun, and now there is another Xu Guangqi, this matter is over.

"Alright, let him in." Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said.

Anyway, I'm already in a bad mood, so I just let them tell everything, otherwise it will be very uncomfortable to put it in my heart.

"Yes, Emperor."

Soon Xu Guangqi walked in from outside.

Looking at Xu Guangqi's dusty appearance, Zhu Youxiao knew that something was wrong with him.

The most critical point is that Xu Guangqi's appearance must be from the Baigong Academy, which means that the matter has something to do with the Baigong Academy.

It must not be a trivial matter for Xu Guangqi to run over in such a hurry.

"Aiqing, sit down and have a cup of tea." Zhu Youxiao looked at Xu Guangqi and said, and at the same time said to Fang Zhenghua on the side: "Sit down, and give Xu Aiqing a cup of tea." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xu Guangqi said.

After Xu Guangqi sat down and took a sip of tea, Zhu Youxiao asked, "Aiqing is so eager to come over, but is there anything in a hurry?" Or did you say something? ”

"Your Majesty, nothing happened. But the minister does have something. Xu Guangqi nodded and continued: "The minister came here this time to ask His Majesty for a yamen, and I hope Your Majesty can approve it." ”

After hearing this. Zhu Youxiao had a big head for a while.

Want a yamen?

Is this yamen so easy to get?

Listening to Xu Guangqi's meaning, this yamen is definitely not an ordinary yamen.

So Zhu Youxiao asked cautiously: "I don't know which yamen Aiqing wants?" ”

"Your Majesty, it's Wang Gongchang." Xu Guangqi's tone was firm and his expression was solemn.

Hearing the name Wang Gongchang, Zhu Youxiao felt his head buzz.

Wang Gongchang didn't sound very eye-catching, but this was not an ordinary place, nor was it an ordinary yamen. And more importantly, this Wang Gong factory, which is owned by the Ministry of Industry.

"I don't know which yamen Aiqing wants Wang Gongchang to belong to?" Zhu Youxiao asked tentatively.

In fact, Zhu Youxiao had already guessed that no one except Baigongfang would ask for Wang Gongchang.

Bi Maokang didn't dare to ask for Wang Gongchang by himself, the reason was actually very simple, because his weight was not enough, and there was no way to open this mouth.

The establishment of this place in Wang Gongchang is very early, which can be traced back to the Yongle period.

When it was first established, although Wang Gong Factory was subordinate to the Ministry of Industry, it was said that it was in the palace, because Wang Gong Factory had a eunuch who supervised the factory.

Wang Gong factory can produce a large amount of gunpowder every day, and the perennial storage of gunpowder is also very large, and it is specially used for the Beijing camp.

After these years of development, Wang Gong factory has long been gone.

Because of the decline of Beijing, other supporting industries naturally declined, and the power also completely fell into the hands of the Ministry of Industry.

Moving a Wang Gong factory, it is not as simple as it seems. Because once you move Wang Gongchang, then you have to move the Ordnance Bureau.

Although each region has its own armory bureau, they usually make some swords and other things; All firearms were manufactured in the Ordnance Bureau in the capital.

Once he moves Wang Gongchang, it will inevitably cut the Ordnance Bureau, which will involve a power struggle.

Whoever holds power in his hands is unwilling to let go.

But looking at Xu Guangqi, Zhu Youxiao didn't know what to say, and if he refused, he would definitely not be able to say it, and even if he asked him to wait, Zhu Youxiao couldn't speak.

Xu Guangqi will not know what he brought up this matter for, and everyone knows his relationship with Baigongyuan.

Now that Xu Guangqi is still leaving Wang Gongchang for the sake of the Baigong Institute, many people will not think that Xu Guangqi is for the country and the public, but will think that he is taking power.

You must know that Xu Guangqi is now a member of the cabinet of the second auxiliary university, and he will not be unaware of the consequences of doing this, but he still did it.

Xu Guangqi is not for himself.

In fact, Zhu Youxiao also knew that it would be more appropriate to give Wang Gongchang to the Baigong Institute.

From the official aspect, the Baigong Institute is responsible for scientific research, and Wang Gong Factory is responsible for manufacturing, which is more conducive to management and R&D and manufacturing if they are grouped together, which is similar to the factories under the research institute in later generations.

From a personal point of view, Zhu Youxiao wanted to get Wang Gongchang back. To put it bluntly, it is to collect power.

But it's really hard to do this, and the key is that there are too many things going on now. There are things about the Ministry of Internal Affairs, things about the academy, and now there is another thing about Wang Gongchang, and they are all so eager.

"I know about it." Zhu Youxiao nodded and said.
