Chapter 600: Supervising the Central Plains (1)
The second assistant, the scholar of the Jianji Palace and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, the prince's wife Fu, the sword of Shang Fang, the banner of the king's order, and the assistant minister!
"Wow"
As soon as they heard Chongzhen's appointment, at this moment, a group of ministers suddenly couldn't hold back.
Ren Jifu, Jianji Hall Scholar and Scholar of the Ministry of Rites, Prince and Prince, this is a position that many ministers can't dream of.
Just gave Liu Ximing such a young man in his early twenties today?
None of these ministers considered Liu Xi's decision to go to the Central Plains to supervise the teacher, and the first thing that came to their minds was not convinced.
Why, on qualifications, on ability, when will it be Liu Xi's turn.
However, the strange thing is that although many ministers are all slandered in their hearts, no one is eager to jump out to oppose it.
originally belonged to the imperial court, but the Donglin Party was silent at the moment.
At this time, Liu Zongzhou had been reinstated as the imperial history of the left capital of the Imperial Procuratorate, and he stood silently at the forefront of the courtiers at this moment.
The three brothers Huang Zongxi and Huang Zonghui are all his personal disciples, and all three of them are good friends with Liu Ximing.
Especially Huang Zonghui, he only needs to wear a pair of pants with Liu Ximing, with this relationship, how can Liu Zongzhou make it difficult for Liu Ximing.
What's more, a little different from the ordinary Donglin Party, although Liu Zongzhou is also Nan Bowan among the bar elites, and he is also pedantic and conservative, he has never wavered in his loyalty to the monarch.
Now that Liu Ximing is willing to go to the big fire pit in the Central Plains, at least it shows that people are loyal to the king, and there is no need to stop it in this case.
Liu Zongzhou didn't speak, and a group of people in the Donglin behind him also put out the fire.
As for the other courtiers, since the death of Yang Sichang, Yao Minggong has reluctantly served as the leader of the Chu Party, but he is also old, and he has been in office last year, and now he is still counting on Liu Ximing's little incense to save his life.
Not to mention officials from Sichuan, Shaanxi, etc.
However, a few young imperial historians of the Qi Party in the Metropolitan Procuratorate have not yet noticed that something is wrong, and they are eager to come out and make a name for themselves.
Who knew that at this time, Zhou Yanru, the first assistant who was standing at the forefront of the courtiers, suddenly coughed twice, and directly stood up slowly, holding his hand and arching his hand: "Your Majesty uses people well, and the minister also thinks that Xin Anbo is the best candidate to supervise the Central Plains, as for serving as the second assistant, although Xin Anbo is still young, it doesn't matter." ”
Zhou Yanru looked at a red-robed official with a long face and short beard not far from him, and smiled at everyone again: "Wei Shiling is extremely talented, Your Majesty can be entrusted with reuse without his qualifications. The new Amber has made great contributions, and this time he went to save the crisis, and no matter how he served, it was not too much. ”
Wei Shiling is Wei Zaode, and this guy can be regarded as a legend of the Chongzhen Dynasty.
Chongzhen was only the champion in thirteen years, and this year, because of the siege of Jinzhou and Ningyuan, in order to avoid the support of the Ming army, he specially sent soldiers and horses to harass Gyeonggi, so Chongzhen consulted the courtiers about military affairs.
It was at this time that Wei Zaode successfully won Chongzhen's trust with a three-inch incorruptible tongue, and was directly promoted from the Hanlin Academy of Liupin to a scholar of Dongge University, and successfully entered the cabinet.
In the future, this cattle man will go further and become the last first assistant of the Ming Dynasty.
Liu Ximing couldn't help but sigh at the time, who told people to do a good job, but he wouldn't be willing to let him do it, and it was too unworthy to get a lucky name for nothing.
It's a pity that Wei Zaode's character is as bad as Chongzhen's ability to recognize people, Li Zicheng just entered the Beijing Division, and this Shoufu went to seek an official in a hurry, which can be described as a model of shameless literati in the late Ming Dynasty.
"But, after all, you still have to push it, right?" , such a sentence came out of the queue direction of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and I don't know who said it.
Zhou Yanru pretended to glance casually in the direction where the voice came from, and said with a smile: "Tingtui is only used when there are many candidates, and now any of the ministers are willing to take over the great task of suppressing thieves in the Central Plains, if there is, please stand up, and the old man will naturally ask Your Majesty Tingtui." ”
As soon as these words came out, there was silence in the Imperial Palace.
The Central Plains is now erosive, and everyone avoids it, who wants to go there.
Zhou Yanru is the first assistant after all, as soon as he opened his mouth, he basically put the matter on the ground, Chongzhen looked at the court with satisfaction, and felt more and more that he was doing the right thing.
Immediately, he looked at Liu Ximing and said: "I have all the things that the Qing family has said, and when you choose the soldiers and horses from the Beijing camp, I will personally do it for you, and I wish you good news as soon as possible." ”
Liu Ximing stepped forward and bowed his hands, "The minister will live up to His Majesty's high expectations!" ”
In the crowd, Huang Zonghui and Du Liangji glanced at each other in the air, and their eyes were full of excitement.
~~~
In the Beijing camp.
Dressed in a big red python robe, Liu Ximing, who was majestic and majestic, strode into the garrison of the Beijing camp army surrounded by Zhou Yuji, Jiang Deshen and other generals.
Zhou Yuji, who was usually majestic and silent, looked a little complicated at this time, Liu Ximing observed everyone's faces while walking, and couldn't help but laugh when he saw him like this;
"Why, Cui Rong knows the purpose of this pavilion?"
"Hehe, the matter of Uncle's promotion to the elder of the Pavilion is now spread all over the capital, and the news that you are going to the Central Plains Inspector is also known to everyone, even if the news is not well-informed, it will not be unaware."
Since he fought a few battles with Liu Ximing, and was later transferred by him to help, seeing that Liu Ximing's official became bigger and bigger, and the more he became more and more obedient, Zhou Yuji naturally regarded himself as Liu Ximing's disciple.
This title is still good, Qi Jiguang still called himself a little lackey Qi in front of Zhang Juzheng, which shows that in front of the powerful, dignity is worthless.
Liu Ximing looked at Zhou Yuji with a smile, "Since you know that this pavilion is going to the Central Plains Governor, then you also know that Your Majesty has allowed me to dispatch 5,000 soldiers from the Beijing camp, are you willing to go or unwilling to go?" ”
"Hehe, the elder of the pavilion has a call, and the subordinates are going to the soup to rush over."
Zhou Yuji hurriedly expressed his attitude, but as soon as he finished speaking, he hesitated again:
"It's just that the door is a little puzzled, the Central Plains is now erosive, and the officers and soldiers have almost no combat power at all, why should the elder jump into it now, this matter is not only confusing to the door, but the other generals are also a little worried."
Hearing this, Liu Ximing pretended to be unhappy and glanced at Jiang Deshen, the general who was following him, "What, you all think so?" ”
"Hey, hey, where is the elder going to be with his subordinates, but his subordinates haven't thought so."
Zhou Yuji immediately slapped Jiang Deshen on the door of his head, "Bastard boy, are you dismantling my platform in front of the elder pavilion?" ”
"How dare the kid", Jiang Deshen hurriedly shouted.
Liu Ximing didn't laugh angrily, "Hahaha, a bunch of bastards." ”
That is, knowing that Liu Ximing is kind, Zhou Yuji dares to make such a move.
Closely followed by a group of generals such as the Shenji Battalion and the 3,000 Battalion, they were envious and gloating when they saw this scene.
What I envy is that Zhou Yuji and others have such a close relationship with Liu Ximing, a big celebrity, and the schadenfreude is naturally a matter of the Central Plains, and Liu Ximing will never come here to take a casual look.
With outsiders present, Liu Ximing was not overconfident, and immediately he stroked his beard and said:
"I am the minister of state, and I am trusted by His Majesty, of course I must try my best to be loyal at this time, but you don't need to panic, the Central Plains is not hopeless."
He looked at Zhou Yuji and said, "Do you remember the last time we waited for an ambush on Jianyu?" ”
"Cao Yanluo?" , Zhou Yuji blurted out in surprise.
"Hehe, exactly, Cao Zongbing and Shao Zongbing still have a lot of elite soldiers, as long as they can use the strategy properly, they may not be able to maintain the vitality of the Central Plains."
Zhou Yuji and the others were relieved at this time, it's good that your old man is prepared.
After such a while, Liu Ximing and the others had already entered the military camp and schoolyard, and Zhou Yuji had already gathered the 7,000 soldiers who followed the battle last time and waited for Liu Ximing's lecture.
On the school field where the flag was displayed, Liu Ximing strode to the front desk, looking at the crowd under the stage, he took a deep breath and said:
"Soldiers, thanks to the trust of Your Majesty, the pavilion led the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp to the Central Plains to supervise the division, the Beijing camp is located at the foot of the Son of Heaven, the world is favored by the emperor, now is the time for you to serve......"
After saying the righteous and awe-inspiring words, Liu Ximing smiled and said:
"After the official words are finished, let's talk a little privately, I am familiar with many of the soldiers present, and I don't say much nonsense, you just think about it yourself, have you ever suffered a loss with me? This time, there are only 5,000 places in the south, and I am willing to go to the camp to sign up. ”
"Hahaha, the elder is mighty!"
As Liu Ximing expected, this group of soldiers in the Beijing camp was carefully selected by Liu Ximing, and they had already been infiltrated into a sieve by Jiang Deshen and others, and when they heard Liu Ximing's down-to-earth words, they immediately burst into laughter.
Many people shouted on the spot, "I am willing to fight with the elder of the pavilion!" ”
Liu Ximing turned his head to look at Zhou Yuji and the others, as if he was thinking about something, and waited for a moment before saying to everyone:
"This time I went to the Central Plains, Cui Rong will definitely follow me, as for Jiang Shen, you will stay in Beijing this time."
"Huh?"
Jiang Deshen was shocked, he thought that Liu Ximing would take this opportunity to take away all the soldiers in the Beijing camp who had been brought over with great difficulty, but he didn't expect to let himself and others stay, why is this?
