Chapter 288: The minister is old and cautious
Zuo Zongyi walked into the hall slowly, the more times like this, the more he had to be steady.
From the moment he stepped into the threshold, he felt that the eyes of His Majesty and the princes fell on him like a tide, and his face was very calm, but in fact, he was ......
What to do? Should the old man take the left foot first, or the right foot?
He glanced up slightly, then quickly lowered his head and walked cautiously forward.
Yan Chengjin tilted his head slightly, and saw Zuo Zongyi step by step, slowly walking to the C position of the main hall.
Just like a deer performing in front of a female deer, even the footsteps, rhythm and saluting posture are so elegant and professional that they attract people's attention.
"Minister Zuo Zongyi, see Your Majesty!"
Zuo Zongyi saluted Emperor Hongzhi.
Emperor Hongzhi asked puzzledly: "Why did Zuo Qing's family come back?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, the ministers transferred troops from Guangzhou Mansion, and Hainan sent back good news, and Wang Shouren pacified the Li Chaos."
Emperor Hongzhi's heart trembled violently, and he held the dragon head on the throne, this is too fast, right? How to calm down......
"Could it be that the good news is wrong, there are no 100,000 people in Li Chao at all?" Qin Hong's mouth opened in surprise, only in this way could Wang Shouren be explained to pacify the Li Rebellion within a month.
Li Dongyang and Ma Wensheng were equally shocked, and it took four years for the Miru Rebellion to be quelled by the imperial court.
In contrast, Li Chao is too fast.
Zuo Zongyi knew that they didn't believe it: "This is an urgent report from Wang Shouren, and Your Majesty and the princes will know it at a glance." ”
Mu Bin hurriedly presented the urgent performance.
Emperor Hongzhi opened the sparse music, looked at the ten lines at a glance, eagerly looked at the content of the sparse music, and saw Wang Shouren privately collecting troops and horses, faintly angry, but with 30,000 troops to defeat the 100,000 soldiers and horses of the Li people, and very happy, when he closed the sparse music, his mood was extremely complicated.
Xiao Jing read out the urgent.
Yan Chengjin listened quietly.
Wang Shouren pacified the Li chaos, which did not shock him, what really moved his heart was that Wang Shouren opened an altar to give a lecture in Hainan.
Did he come to his senses?
Wang Shouren's mental learning was slow to understand because he stayed in the capital.
I went to Hainan to have a different experience, maybe it made him suddenly open, it is better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles, this is the truth.
I wonder if Your Majesty will punish Wang Shouren for his crimes?
This time, Wang Shouren's military exploits are enough to be knighted, but it is also a big crime to privately collect soldiers and horses.
Yan Chengjin took a step forward and walked to the center of the main hall: "Your Majesty, Wang Shouren was forced to collect troops and horses, and now that the chaos in Hainan has been calmed, please don't blame Your Majesty." ”
At the beginning of the dynasty, Lan Yu had recruited soldiers and horses privately.
But after winning the battle, Zhu Yuanzhang did not punish him according to the law of Daming.
Emperor Hongzhi stiffened his face, and it was indeed difficult to decide whether he would succeed or fail.
Li Dongyang stood up and said, "Your Majesty, it's better to offset the merits and demerits, right?" ”
"Nope."
Yan Chengjin's palms were full of sweat, if Wang Shouren was gradually moved away by His Majesty and could not be reused, it would be a big loss for the Ming Dynasty.
Zuo Zongyi sighed, Wang Shouren has this ability, why don't you wait for him to transfer troops to Hainan, in that case, the knighthood is a sure thing.
The ministers whispered privately that Xie Qian was Wang Hua's friend and wanted to say a few words for Wang Shouren.
Yan Chengjin calculated carefully, and was ready to tell the benefits of Hainan pioneering, and put the merits on Wang Shouren.
At this time, Emperor Hongzhi had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth: "Wang Shouren pacified the Li chaos, and his merits and demerits were compensated, but he investigated and dealt with seventy-six corrupt officials and corrupt officials, which is also a great achievement!"
What is Wang Shouren's position? ”
Xiao Jing on the side hurriedly said: "Strictly speaking, it is the head of the Criminal Department, and it is six grades, ten stones of rice, and twelve taels of silver." ”
Wang Shouren's chief instructor in Beijing is only Yu Lu, and there is no official anecdote.
"Promote Wang Shouren to be the Langzhong of the Criminal Department, and he will be promoted with the official!"
Li Dongyang, Xie Qian and others secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and in just two years, they were promoted to two grades, which is comparable to sitting on an egret to the sky.
There are many talented people in the government and the opposition, and their official positions are limited, and the chances of promotion are extremely small.
Li Dongyang and the three of them all have a deep understanding of this.
They were all officials in the Chenghua period, but they were only reused in the Hongzhi Dynasty.
Like Wang Shouren, it is rare to upgrade a product every year.
The two couldn't help but look at Yan Chengjin, every time he recommended Wang Shouren, he would be promoted, saying that it was lucky, which I dare not agree.
If you go to Hainan instead, you might die there.
Liu Jian's face was full of sorrow: "So many corrupt officials have been found, Your Majesty, you should send someone to Hainan to serve now." ”
"The minister has something to say!" Yan Chengjin continued: "I beg Your Majesty's permission to make Hainan independent and no longer under the jurisdiction of the Guangdong Political Envoy.
This Li rebellion was due to the fact that the whip was out of reach, which led to the breeding of greedy officials. ”
The Ming Dynasty despised Hainan, although the territory of Hainan was larger than that of a political envoy, but it was under the jurisdiction of the political envoy of Guangdong.
In other words, today's Hainan is a city in Guangdong, which is very backward.
"Establish a new political envoy? How many additional positions are needed! How can the barren land of Hainan be worthy of this? ”
Qin Hong asked with a stiff face.
"Chen dares to bet ten gold medals to avoid death, and ten years later, Hainan will be richer than Zhejiang." Yan Chengjin is colorful.
Emperor Hongzhi's shocked face was all shown on his face, and he was too lazy to hide it.
Hainan, but the land of exile?
That kind of place is desolate and bleak, what confidence is more abundant than that?
Li Dongyang and others were also shocked.
The land of Zhejiang is extremely rich, if there is one more Zhejiang, the national strength of the Ming Dynasty is not the same.
Don't worry, the minister is always cautious.
Yan Chengjin's complexion did not change, if in the future generations, he would not have such confidence to boast about Haikou.
But now it is an agrarian society, and whoever produces more grain has a big fist.
Hainan deserves it!
Three a year, which is equivalent to opening an accelerator.
Then some workshops from Liangxiang were moved to Hainan to start trading by the sea.
"Yan Qing's family, when you speak in the court, you have to think twice before acting, you can't be carried away by the gold medal for avoiding death." Emperor Hongzhi pulled down his face and kindly advised.
"Your Majesty is reluctant?"
Qin Hong smiled: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks you can try, this move will be beneficial to my Ming Dynasty." ”
The ministers nodded their heads.
Hainan can really be rich, it has been rich for a long time, why has it become a place of exile since all dynasties.
Even Liu Jian nodded.
Seeing this, Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "Let's take a look first, and make Hainan independent of the Guangdong political envoys."
As for the bet, there is no need for it. ”
Your Majesty wants to leave a way back for Yan Chengjin.
Dai Shan breathed a sigh of relief and motioned to Yan Chengjin to return to the team of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
"It's not child's play to separate Hainan, the cabinet and Jiuqing stay to discuss with me, Yan Chengjin, you also stay, and retreat from the dynasty!" Emperor Hongzhi said.
After independence, it is necessary to set up three divisions: the Metropolitan Command and Envoy Division, the Undertaking and Announcing Political Envoy Division, and the Procuratorial Envoy Division.
It means that many official positions will be created.
After retreating, only hand-picked officials remained in the main hall.
Liu Jian began to recommend fellow villagers, and Li Dongyang also began to recommend.
Emperor Hongzhi looked at Dai Shan and Yan Chengjin and said, "You can't help but send a supervisor to supervise the imperial history, who do you two think is suitable?" ”
"Fang Xue!"
"Fang Xue!"
Yan Chengjin and the two said together.
After the shortcomings of Yansui's border army, Fang Xue's ability was unanimously recognized by the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Out of the palace, Yan Chengjin wrote a letter and ordered someone to send it to Liangxiang.
Let Wang Busui arrange a large number of iron tools to be shipped to Hainan.
Hainan now only lacks iron tools for farming, as well as cattle, and with these two, the matter of land reclamation can be easily solved.
……
Li Fu,
Li Zhaoxian was a little confused: "Sister, if you are a man, what do you want to do?" ”
"Brother, what's the ...... So abrupt? "The man has strange things on his body, and Li Qing'e's cheeks are red.
"Brother thought about it for several days, but he couldn't think of it, it seems to be as Lord Yan said......"
Li Zhao wanted to ask his father first, but his father hadn't gone down to court yet.
He decided to go to Liangxiang to find out.
After arriving in Liangxiang, I saw large ships parked at the dock, carrying iron tools to the boats.
"Looking for work? Let's go, there's no shortage of Mr. Accounts here. The foreman saw that the scholar was depressed and reprimanded.
"I ...... I'll look at the compass. ”
