Yu Dayou's funeral was very grand, and Zhu Yijun also gave Yu Dayou enough grief after his death, but even so, Zhu Yijun was still in a very bad mood, and Yu Dayou's death made Zhu Yijun feel more urgent.

"Your Majesty, it's time to eat!"

Zhang Whale glanced at Zhu Yijun with some concern, bowed down and said.

Glancing at Zhang Whale, Zhu Yijun nodded, and then said, "Take it!" ”

Zhu Yijun has been trying his best to adjust his mood in the past few days, although Yu Dayou's death made Zhu Yijun very sad, but there are still some things that have to be done, such as choosing a new admiral for Zuo Long Wuwei.

This candidate must be chosen from among the young people, Zhu Yijun thought about it for a long time, and finally felt that Zhang Weixian was quite suitable.

Good background, British government, ability is also good, plus young, spent in the school palace. In the past few years, I have followed Liu Xian in Beijing, and my growth is not bad, and it is reasonable to improve one step.

Zhu Yijun didn't bother too much, and soon gave the holy decree and sent it directly to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.

There is nothing to hesitate about in this matter, Yu Dayou trained Zuo Long Wuwei, but the commander of Zuo Long Wuwei can't rely on veterans, otherwise he will have to be replaced in a few years. It's time for Zhang Weixian to come to the forefront, and Zhu Yijun is very optimistic about it.

There was nothing else to do a year ago, and Zhu Yijun relaxed.

Accompanying Queen Wang every day, since she became pregnant, she has been careful inside and outside the palace. Now that she is pregnant, Zhu Yijun also wants to accompany her more while she has nothing to do during the New Year, and fulfill her responsibilities as a husband.

These days, Queen Wang's mood is still good, although her body is inevitably tormented, but Queen Wang can feel Zhu Yijun's love for herself, and she can also feel his love for the child in her belly.

During the whole Chinese New Year, nothing happened to the imperial court, and everything was peaceful.

"My lord, General Ma has gone!"

Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Whale, was slightly stunned, then smiled bitterly, shook his head helplessly, and sighed, there are some things in this world that are really helpless. As soon as Yu Dayou left, Ma Fang went again, when people are strong and poor!

survived the winter, and after the New Year, he still didn't hold on, and Ma Fang also died.

Zhu Yijun waved his hand and said, "Order the cabinet to treat the funeral!" ”

This time Zhu Yijun didn't go to Mafu, but there were a lot of rewards, Ma Fang's nickname, Zhu Yijun also gave Wu Yi, and chased Pingxihou, which was considered a mourning honor for Ma Fang. Ma Fang's death made Zhu Yijun's mood worse again.

This time, Zhu Yijun needs to find a new admiral for the Xiying in the Beijing camp, and the Xiying is no better than Zuolong Wuwei.

The west camp was trained by Ma Fang, mainly aimed at the grassland cavalry, with the successive expansion in recent years, the west camp has 15,000 cavalry. In recent years, Zhu Yijun has invested a lot in this area, and the effect is also very good.

Originally, this time in the Warat incident, Zhu Yijun was going to let Ma Fang take Xiying to the grassland for a spin.

Now that the person is dead, it is difficult to find Ma Fang's successor, you need to understand the grassland, and have fought with the Warat people, otherwise it is really terrible for a layman to command an insider. Zhu Yijun's first thought was Qi Jiguang, but when he thought of his Qi family's army, Zhu Yijun hesitated a little.

Qi Jiguang is naturally no problem in commanding Xiying, but what about his Qi family's army?

Now Liaodong is still inseparable from him, if he is allowed to enter Beijing, will the Qi family army be abolished? For the sake of Xiying, Zhu Yijun was reluctant to abolish the Qi family army with brilliant combat effectiveness, which made him have to think about this matter.

Zhu Yijun thought about it, and this matter had to fall on Xu Wenchang in the end.

"Go and get Xu Wenchang for me!" Zhu Yijun glanced at Zhang Whale and spoke.

Xu Wenchang is basically tired of being with Hai Rui these days, and during the Chinese New Year, other people's families are happy, and these two lonely old men are together with each other, but there is also some comfort. It's a pleasure to study the new Daxin County together.

Hearing the emperor's call, Xu Wenchang naturally did not dare to delay, and followed Zhang Whale to the palace.

The two of them are very familiar with each other, and Zhu Yijun is not polite, and said directly: "Xu Aiqing, Ma Fang and Ma Aiqing left me, and in less than a month, I lost two of my favorite generals." Now that there is a vacancy in Jingying and Xiying, I don't know who Aiqing thinks can be the successor? ”

Xu Wenchang was stunned for a moment, it turned out that the emperor asked this, and then said with a smile: "The emperor just let Qi Jiguang enter Beijing." ”

After looking at Xu Wenchang, Zhu Yijun didn't expect Xu Wenchang to actually let himself be transferred back to Qi Jiguang, and after glancing at Xu Wenchang, Zhu Yijun hesitated and said: "Qi Jiguang is in Jiliao, transfer him back, what should the Qi family army do?" ”

Listening to Zhu Yijun's words, Xu Wenchang suddenly smiled, looked at Zhu Yijun and said, "Your Majesty, if the army not led by Qi Jiguang is called the Qi family's army!" ”

Zhu Yijun was stunned when he heard it, well, he seemed to have made this mistake.

"The Qi army refers to the Qi army in the southeast when the Japanese resisted the Japanese, and the main soldiers came from Yiwu, that is, the famous Yiwu soldiers, and there were also called Zhejiang troops. After the pacification of the southeastern Japanese invaders, most of this Zhejiang army remained in Zhejiang. ”

"According to age, these Zhejiang troops are at least forty or fifty years old, and the young ones are estimated to be about forty, and they can't fight for a long time."

"Now the Jiliao army commanded by Qi Jiguang in Jiliao is actually the first year of Longqing, and it is recommended that Qi Jiguang, Yu Dayou and others train the soldiers in the Jimen area, but after the court discussion, it was decided to appoint only Qi Jiguang."

"So the imperial court appointed Qi Jiguang as the deputy general of the Shenji Battalion, at that time Tan Lun had just recruited 30,000 infantry in Liao and Ji, and 3,000 soldiers in Zhejiang, and the imperial court handed over these people to Qi Jiguang for training."

"Later, the imperial court appointed Qi Jiguang as the chief soldier of Jiliao, with the title of governor, and trained soldiers in Jizhou, Changping, Baoding and other places, and officials below the chief officer were controlled by Qi Jiguang."

"The current Jiliao Army, although most of them were trained by Qi Jiguang, they cannot be called the Qi Family Army. If you have to say it, it is the 3,000 people who came from Zhejiang, and the rest are all Jiliao troops. ”

"But this is also where I admire Qi Jiguang, he is now more and more like a famous general."

Zhu Yijun was stunned for a moment, looked at Xu Wenchang, and asked with a smile: "What do you mean by this?" ”

"Back then, Qi Jiguang went to the southeast to pacify the Japanese invaders, but he suffered a defeat, and in the end he had no choice but to run to recruit conscripts. Look at the current Qi Jiguang, who is it for, who is used, and it can also fight. ”

"What kind of virtue did those Jiliao troops have at the beginning, and what they look like now, it's a world of difference!"

Zhu Yijun smiled and nodded, but still refuted Xu Wenchang and said: "Qi Jiguang has made progress, but he was in the southeast back then, and he didn't have time to train him, what he needed at that time was to be able to pull out and fight." ”

"Qi Jiguang went to Jiliao, it really took a lot of time to train."

Xu Wenchang also nodded approvingly: "Of course, there is also a relationship with the imperial court, at that time, the imperial court had no money to give, and now the imperial court has money." Not to mention anything else, when Zhang Ge was old in those years, Qi Jiguang's military salary was never in arrears. ”

"Reward for merit, that's not a discount at all, and even give more, this world is what Qi Jiguang can do."

Zhu Yijun could hear the sadness in Xu Wenchang's tone, and obviously he thought of Hu Zongxian again. Like Qi Jiguang, Hu Zongxian also relied on the powerful to do things, but one person was Yan Song, and the other was Zhang Juzheng.

In fact, Zhu Yijun is also very uncomfortable in this matter, but sometimes, some things, really make you so helpless.

"Not anymore!" Zhu Yijun glanced at Xu Wenchang and said with a smile: "This kind of thing will definitely not happen." ”

Xu Wenchang glanced at Zhu Yijun and laughed as well, and the more he laughed, the louder he became.

Although the topic deviated while chatting, Zhu Yijun knew that the matter of transferring Qi Jiguang to Beijing could be regarded as settled. The holy decree was soon issued, and Qi Jiguang was transferred to the governor of the western camp of the Beijing camp.

As for Qi Jiguang's successor, in Xu Wenchang's words, it is enough to find someone under Qi Jiguang.

Although Liaodong is chaotic now, Li Chengliang can still deal with it, since Qi Jiguang pacified Dong Fox, there is no big threat to the land of Jiliao. The problem now is that the Northwest Warat, who canonized the son of the third lady, is rude.

There will be chaos over there, it will inevitably affect the northwest, if Ma Fang is here, then you can send Ma Fang, now that Ma Fang is dead, then the northwest needs a strong man to go over.

Who is this strongman? Of course it's Qi Jiguang!

ordered Qi Jiguang to enter Beijing, and Zhu Yijun breathed a sigh of relief, and the western camp of the Beijing camp could be considered to be stable.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the imperial court resumed its work, but in fact there was still nothing to do. Although Zhu Yijun did a lot of things last year, the actual big policy, that is, the Yang Shiyin, and the smuggling of salt case are nothing.

It's nothing more than investigating a case of illegal salt and killing some people, and even the case of the Arsenal Department of the Ministry of War is not comparable.

Although the Arsenal Division's side has been separated, in fact, it is just a change in the imperial court organization, coupled with Pan Jitao's ability, everything is now on the right track. I heard that I am working on a hydraulic press recently, and it seems that it is about to succeed.

Although Yangshiyin is a big deal, and the tax department has also been set up, it is not time to collect the field tax, and there is nothing to see now.

However, there is one thing that gives Zhu Yijun a headache, that is, his younger brother Zhu Yijun.

Zhu Yihua's title is King Lu, which has long been decided, but he is not small this year, and it is time to open the mansion. This Zhu Yijun doesn't care, but once the mansion is opened, he needs to be rewarded with land and money.

In addition, Empress Dowager Li is preparing for her son's wedding recently, which must be another big expense.

Zhu Yijun has been thinking about it recently, how to let him spend less, it's not easy to save some money by himself!
