There are two candidates for the military department.

Zuo Zongyi, the left attendant of the military department, and Chai Sheng, the secretary of the Nanjing military department.

According to His Majesty's custom, he was usually promoted from the head of the department to the rank of Shangshu.

But Zuo Zongyi is supervising the construction of the Great Wall, guarding the border of Alxa, and holding two positions, so only Chai Sheng is left.

Emperor Hongzhi suddenly asked, "Can Liu Daxia still be able to eat?" ”

The expression of the hundred officials froze on his face, Your Majesty should not want to restart Liu Daxia, right?

Yan Chengjin took a sip secretly, in the eyes of His Majesty, there is really no real retirement, as a worker, he has been a worker all his life...

It is extremely common to return to the old ministers of the former court, Wang Shu is over eighty years old, and he was pulled out by the imperial court for use.

In comparison, Liu Daxia, who is in his sixties, is still relatively young.

There was silence in the hall.

At this time, the official said to Chang Zhongzhong: "The minister and Liu Gong have some correspondence, and between the lines, Liu Gong is in good health." ”

When Liu Daxia left office, he was a squire in the military department, and it was logical for him to serve as the secretary of the headquarters.

"Your Majesty, why don't you let the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department fill the position?" Li Dongyang said.

Yan Chengjin wanted his father to serve as his first choice, and let the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department serve as the second choice.

Liu Daxia is the last option.

The matter of his trading with Liu Daxia for Zheng He's navigation charts, if it is turned out by Jinyiwei, it will collapse.

"The virtuous do not avoid relatives, and the minister recommends his father Yan Kesong, who has repeatedly made great contributions to the border and served as the secretary of the military department, which is more than enough." Yan Chengjin bowed and ignored the surrounding gazes.

Although the virtuous don't avoid kissing, but you're too close, right?

Emperor Hongzhi shook the corners of his mouth, the three sides needed guards, and he didn't want to adjust Yan Kesong to return to Beijing.

Secondly, Yan Kesong, as a Marquis of Anding, has a knighthood, and is appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of War, so his authority will not reach the sky.

"Your Majesty, even if Liu Daxia is enabled, Yan Kesong can't be transferred back to the capital."

"Yes, a person with a knighthood, how can he be appointed to the six ministries, Yan Chengjin, you are the imperial history of the capital, don't you know?"

The two officials of the six sections said one after another.

Emperor Hongzhi rubbed the armrest of the dragon chair with his palm, and suddenly, he raised his head, and a firm look flashed in his eyes: "Spread my will and enable Liu Daxia!" ”

Yan Chengjin's face was stiff, and Liu Daxia was lonely, at best, he took a long vacation.

Liu Jian and others bowed down, unanimously agreed with Liu Daxia's political achievements, and after retiring from the court, they returned to the cabinet to draft the decree.

Charcoal can only be sent to the Ministry of War to escort to Liaodong.

After being on duty, Yan Chengjin hesitated whether he needed to write a letter to Liu Daxia and ask him not to accept His Majesty.

Once his deal with Liu Daxia is revealed, perhaps, it will affect his entry into the cabinet.

In the capital, anthracite spread rapidly, and the charcoal seller became a coal seller.

The gentry hated the trouble of going to Liangxiang to receive anthracite, so they simply bought it from the coal seller and spent a transportation money.

On the chessboard street, the crowd gathers together, which is particularly lively, like watching a play in a pear orchard.

Yan Chengjin didn't hear the sound of singing, and asked He Neng through the sedan curtain: "What are you doing over there?" ”

He Neng was so excited that his voice raised several degrees: "Young master, there are many strange things over there, do you want to get off the sedan chair and take a look?" ”

Where there are many people, the young master has never gotten there.

"Don't go, you tell Young Master Ben what it is."

"There is a big snake, a big snake, the villain promises, the young master has never seen such a big snake." How can he add: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also here!" ”

How can this dog thing, obviously want to see it, and come to lure him.

Yan Chengjin entrusted Jinyiwei to clear the scene, and Ye Zhun took a few people to expel all the onlookers, and only then did he look through the sedan chair from afar.

There is really a big snake, wrapped around the neck of a fan, much smaller than the previous life, he saw in the zoo.

In the cage on the side, there are also green monkeys, macaws, sloths, forest snakes, etc.

Because of the strangeness, so many people have been incurred.

Fanren was three points dazed and seven points panicked, and when he saw that the guests were expelled, Jinyiwei surrounded him again.

Zhu Houzhao gritted his tiger teeth and said unhappily: "Who asked you to expel the people?" Hongu is happy to see it! ”

The dog prince slipped out of the palace again, Ye Zhun's cheeks twitched, and he said with a smile: "What Lord Yan ordered, his subordinates also acted on orders." ”

Zhu Houzhao turned around, and on the crowded street, he found Yan Chengjin's sedan chair and walked over happily.

"Old Gao, how about this palace invite this person to relieve the empress dowager's boredom?"

"The Queen Mother likes to watch dramas, she may not like this person, don't disturb His Royal Highness, the minister is gone."

Putting down the sedan curtain, Yan Chengjin fell into deep thought, walked to the street of Qipan Street, and saw a person holding a collar in his hand, teasing a blind bear.

When he returned to the house, he ordered someone to find Wang Busui.

Rushing back from Liangxiang, Wang Busui trotted into the courtyard out of breath: "Young master, are you looking for me?" ”

"Why are there more people and strange monkeys in the capital?"

Wang Busui said with a smile: "After the opening of the sea ban, the Fan people brought a lot of strange things, more in Tianjin Weigang, the young master likes it, the villain is invited to the house?" ”

It has been a period of time since the sea was opened, and many people came to Daming, but he had heard people say that he was from Austria.

Yan Chengjin touched his chin, it seems that the invasion of alien species is more serious than imagined.

The green monkey is the origin of an incurable disease.

Once he becomes ill, even Wang Ji is helpless.

After all, there is a risk of carrying germs in overseas cross-border trade, and if it is not controlled, it will become a disaster.

For the sake of safety, I must advise His Majesty and order the doctor of Huimin Pharmacy to go to Tianjin Health for testing and pass the examination before entering the country.

"Buy all the living things in the capital and in the hands of the Fanren."

Wang Busui secretly said: "The villain will do it." ”

"Young master, there is a letter written by Master Cheng Minzheng." Menzi walked into the main hall.

Yan Chengjin asked He Neng to open the letter and read it again, and North Korea borrowed 150,000 people to serve.

Once the assembly is completed, arrange for ships to cross the sea and land on the land of the Ming Dynasty.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

Yan Chengjin ran ten laps, changed into a clean scarlet robe, and entered the palace to face the saint.

When he arrived at Dongnuan Pavilion, he pulled out the letter in his cuffs: "Your Majesty, the 150,000 troops of North Korea are ready to enter the country." ”

Emperor Hongzhi's eyelids lowered, and he drooped again, "Yesterday, I also received Cheng Minzheng's recital. ”

"There is a risk of employing forced labor, and you need to be cautious when entering the country, and the ministers are allowed to set up supervision customs in Tianjin." Yan Chengjin Road.

The Ming Dynasty has always closed off the country, and the only overseas jurisdiction is the city department.

The city department is only in charge of the overseas tributary city changes.

But unlike customs, alien species will be inspected and detained, and only war materials will be inspected.

Nowadays, trade along the southeast coast is frequent, and without customs controls, it is not known what kind of situation will become of flooding.

Han Wen sneered: "Lord Yan gives silver? Nowadays, silver is required everywhere, and if Lord Yan can bring down the price of rice, it is called ability. ”

That's how the treasury has been kept up.

Li Dongyang took the lead and set up the Overseas Supervision Department in Tianjinwei, which was equivalent to setting up a yamen.

For a while, Yan Chengjin did not know how to explain the importance of alien species invasion.

Liangxiang devoted himself to shipbuilding and maintaining overseas trade, and vigorously excavated coal, and if he took another step, he would be torn to the egg.

"There is no silver in Liangxiang, Lord Han laughed."

Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "For today's plan, I can only wait for Li Qianhu to come back with silver, and hope that there will really be a silver mine in the island country." ”
