Chapter 468: Reluctantly Invited
Seeing that there were three opinions on the location of the salt farm, Zhao Yu was not worried but happy, so that the problem could be discussed, not to gang up to make a small hill, and the problem can only be checked and filled in after full 'discussion' to select the best plan. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info But he still has hidden worries in his heart, when his subordinates raised questions in a meeting in his previous life, the 'big boss' who was the decision-maker often did not participate in the debate, but just listened to the arguments of the small executives below, and waited until the heat was almost over before he would speak and make a final decision.
Just now Qi Yaqing announced the three site selection plans, and Wen Tianxiang immediately expressed his opinion, which is actually not in line with the rules of officialdom. Zhao Hao can't say that he doesn't understand the rules, but it is precisely because of his personality, he is radical, active, likes to take big ideas, do big things, but don't care about the consequences. However, it also shows that Wen Tianxiang lacks the strength of a court secondary, and is not calm and smooth enough, if he does not change his temper, he will inevitably still be isolated by his colleagues.
From Zhao Hao's point of view, Lu Xiufu is also not sophisticated enough. After Wen Tianxiang expressed his opinion, he also followed up to express his opinion, which in the eyes of ordinary people is nothing more than because he was worried that Wen Tianxiang would steal the limelight of his first assistant, so he was in a hurry to express his position, which made people feel stingy. And he thought that it was actually just Lu Xiufu's knee-jerk reaction, because he had a conservative personality, followed the rules, didn't like to be aggressive, and was worried about failure, so he hoped to learn from the original mature experience. He was also worried that he and his ministers would be 'misled' by Wen Tianxiang's opinion, so he wanted to stop it.
The two first assistants have opposite personalities, if they can cooperate with each other but complement each other, they may also be able to achieve the good story of Duan's 'house plotting to be broken'. Seeing that Xu Zongren and Ying Jieyan were much older and more slippery, seeing that things were about to fall into the impasse of embarrassment and embarrassment for the emperor, they immediately cooperated with each other and put forward a third opinion. Although this will make the two first assistants may be dissatisfied, but they have relieved the siege for the emperor and everyone, and in disguise they have taken over the right to make decisions and handed them back to His Majesty, maintaining Zhao Yu's authority.
Sure enough, with the statements of the two old men, the scene became active again, and everyone started a debate, both those who supported Wen Tianxiang, those who strongly supported Lu Xiufu, and of course those who held a neutral attitude, but with the deepening of the debate, as well as the further comparison of several candidates, the opinions gradually unified, and the overall view of the majority of people's tendency to build a field in the Changhua Army, the two first assistants were no longer stubborn, and gradually softened.
"Your Majesty, the construction of the salt field is the key to solving the problem of financial endowment, it is better to make a decision sooner rather than later, and please make a decision!" The controversy came to an end, and at this time, Qi Yaqing, who was in charge of the construction of the salt plant, got up again and started.
"The site of Yazhou is the place where the slang people lived, and the Han and slang sides have been in dispute for hundreds of years. Although there is nothing to do for the time being, if you rush in, it may still lead to fights and even riots, so it is not advisable to rush in, but to wait for the future to deliberate. In addition, since there are skilled salt-drying craftsmen in Danzhou, we can pay a lot of money to move to the Changhua Army to teach the method of salt-drying and guide the construction of salt farms, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone! Zhao Yu said with a deep sigh, "To sum up, I think that the salt field is the most suitable for the Changhua Army!" ”
In fact, Zhao Yu already belonged in his heart, and where Qi Yaqing reported, he recalled that in the previous life, the largest Yinggehai salt field in Hainan was built in the current Yazhou, and the second Dongfeng salt field was in the Changhua military area. The place where I learned about the salt drying method through a visit is in Danzhou, and I think that the other two places are still producing, but this has become a 'world intangible heritage', which must have no future, and it is directly passed. The Han slang contradiction has been around for a long time, and it is not easy to resolve it at one time, and now if you act rashly, you will inevitably fall into the dilemma of fighting on both internal and external fronts, and you can only temporarily abandon Yazhou and wait for the opportunity to appear.
"Your Majesty is clear-cut, and the ministers obey the order!" Lu Xiufu and Wen Tianxiang glanced at each other, the foreman got up and saluted together, the little emperor said clearly, but he did not completely deny the opinions of the two, it can be said that it gave them face, and what people said is also reasonable, so there is nothing to say.
"Since this is the case, then immediately the first army of the army will go to Changhua in advance to clear the roads, build houses, and repair and guard against them. All the enemy soldiers captured in the Battle of Yashan were assigned to the salt works as salt workers, and they were to be served in hard labor to atone for their sins, and they must arrive within 20 days, and they must be completed before the arrival of the rainy season in May. Zhao Yu said.
"The minister's decree, if there is any delay, be willing to accept the guilt!" Qi Yaqing immediately got up to receive the order after hearing this.
"Prime Minister Lu and Minister Wen, this matter is widely implicated, you must properly coordinate and deal with it, and deploy capable and upright officials to take charge of the salt farm." Zhao Yu turned to the two prime ministers and said.
"The minister's decree will live up to His Majesty's expectations!" The two saluted again.
"Your Majesty......" When the matter of the salt field was discussed, and the ministers sat down again, ready to discuss the next topic, Zhang Shijie suddenly stood up and saluted, but he wanted to speak and stopped.
"The cardinal still has objections?" When it was just discussed, Zhang Shijie probably knew that this matter was not his own strength, and he didn't participate too much, but the matter decided that he seemed to have something to say, which made Zhao Yu very strange and asked.
"Your Majesty, the minister has a reluctant request!" Zhang Shijie hesitated for a moment, seemed to have made up his mind, and saluted again.
"The cardinal has everything you can say!" His strange attitude made Zhao Yu even more puzzled, and he couldn't think of anything so difficult for Zhang Shijie to say for a while.
"Your Majesty, in the Battle of Yashan, the ministers left their duties without authorization, causing the whole army to be in turmoil, so that many generals thought that the general trend had gone and asked for surrender, and then Your Majesty bravely turned the tide into victory, defeated the enemy, and captured the rebel army one after another." Zhang Shijie said, "The minister also knows that these rebel troops will be severely punished according to the law, but they have fought thousands of miles with the court, and they are loyal, brave and good at fighting, and have repeatedly made war exploits. This time, one wrong step will lead to a place of no return, and the minister ...... The minister thought that if they were convicted, could His Majesty open the net, pardon their sins, and let them return to the army to serve His Majesty! ”
"Oh, that's it!" Zhao Yu frowned when he heard this, Zhang Shijie really gave himself a problem. He knew that these troops would defect from the imperial court at the time of crisis and be beheaded according to the law, but as soon as the war ended, he ordered them to be disarmed and detained for the sake of the stable army, and after returning to Qiongzhou, he was still locked up with the captured Yuan army in the garrison of the Destroying Front Army......
