Chapter 16: The Team
After sending Xu Guangqi away, Zhu Cijiong hurriedly returned to the imperial study, since he wanted to use the exchange method to arrange his team to the sixth department of the Beijing Division, then the appointment and dismissal of the officials who had already been approved by the red could not be sent down, and he had to stay and bargain with the eunuchs!
Fortunately, Zhu Youzhen and Sun Chengzong were still busy reviewing other memorabilia, and the approved ones were all put aside, and they hadn't had time to send them to the ministries.
The two of them were a little inexplicable when they saw Zhu Cijiong go and return, and Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, couldn't help but ask: "What does the emperor have to say?" “
Zhu Cijiong pretended to be bored and rummaged around, and then said innocently: "Listen to my teacher Xu Guangqi, Bi Maokang, Sun Yuanhua, Wang Zheng, and Song Yingxing are not bad, they have nothing to do now, it's a pity, I want to arrange a few errands for them in the sixth department." “
Well, as soon as he became a divine teacher, he began to cultivate his own power, who doesn't know that these people are all friends of Xu Guangqi.
Xu Guangqi was really shot while lying down, the key is that he didn't know that he had been shot!
Of course, Sun Chengzong would not think that this was what Zhu Cijiong meant, can a five-year-old child have the idea of supporting his cronies? It's definitely Xu Guangqi's idea!
He thought about it for a while, and asked tentatively: "I don't know what errand the emperor wants to arrange for them, except for Song Yingxing, who is a lifter, the others are all from Jinshi, and their original positions are not low." “
Zhu Cijiong replied indifferently: "Bi Maokang will arrange a squire for him, and Sun Yuanhua can go to the Ministry of War to be a man and take care of weapons; Wang Zheng asked him to be a man in the Ministry of Works, in charge of the controller; As for Song Yingxing, let him be a secretary under Wang Zheng. “
When Sun Chengzong heard this, he weighed it, except that Bi Maokang was a positive third grade, Sun Yuanhua and Wang Zheng only had positive five grades, and Song Yingxing only had nine grades, this request was not too much, but this had to be agreed by the eunuch party, Sun Yuanhua could say that Sun Chengzong was the secretary of the military department, and he was arranged casually, but the other three people were not easy to say, the Ministry of Industry is now the world of the eunuch party.
So, he reminded: "The Ministry of War is a good arrangement, but on the Ministry of Industry, I'm afraid the eunuchs won't agree!" “
Zhu Cijiong pretended to be angry and said: "Haven't these appointments and dismissals been sent yet?" If they dare to disagree, I will keep these twists and turns, so that their people will not be able to be officials. “
Sun Chengzong only said that this was a child's angry words, and he didn't care much, he proposed: "Your Majesty, why don't you find Zhou Yingqiu and Wu Chunfu to come and discuss?" “
Discuss it, discuss it, and they don't dare to disagree, if they tear their faces, everyone will be sad.
So, Zhu Cijiong issued an order to announce that Zhou Yingqiu and Wu Chunfu were discussing the main hall of the Qianqing Palace. ”
Zhou Yingqiu and Wu Chunfu received the order, and they were really cold in their hearts, for fear that Sun Chengzong and Zhu Youzhen would take the opportunity to clean them up. But the emperor's will has to be obeyed, and resisting the will is a capital crime, if they dare to resist the will, then there is no need to make excuses, and it is all for nothing to pull out and cut it directly.
Zhou Yingqiu and Wu Chunfu came to the Qianqing Palace nervously, and soon found that they were completely wrong, the emperor didn't call them to find fault with them at all, the emperor or Sun Chengzong actually came to them to discuss the appointment and dismissal of officials!
Zhu Cijiong's meaning is very simple, I can pass all of your appointments and dismissals of officials, and in return, don't object to a few people I mention.
Everyone discussed for an hour in a friendly atmosphere, Zhou Yingqiu and Wu Chunfu agreed to the appointment and dismissal of Bi Maokang and the other four people very interestingly, in exchange, Zhu Cijiong also agreed to approve all the excerpts of their appointment and dismissal of officials, in fact, they did not agree to the excerpts and also approved all the excerpts, but Zhou Yingqiu and Wu Chunfu did not know.
In the end, Bi Maokang and the other four arranged their positions according to Zhu Cijiong's intentions:
Bi Maokang served as the right waiter of the Ministry of Industry, and he was the third product;
Wang Zheng served as the Ministry of Industry to clean up the official Shi Langzhong, and was the fifth product;
Sun Yuanhua served as the commander of the arsenal of the Ministry of War, and he was the fifth product;
Song Yingxing served as the secretary of the Ministry of Industry.
After this discussion, the eunuchs gradually relaxed their vigilance, those core members were no longer sad, and even Wei Zhongxian entered the palace to see the little emperor under the protection of Tian Ergeng, Luo Yangxing did not ambush him at the palace gate, and everything seemed to have returned to the reign of Ming Xizong.
Every morning in the court, the little emperor Zhu Cijiong sat there without saying a word, as if he was not interested in the government at all. Sun Chengzong did not launch the Donglin Party to impeach the eunuch party, and he was not angry, as if he was a good man. Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, stood there like a sculpture and never spoke.
There is no imaginary rivalry, and there is no imaginary purge, the little emperor doesn't pay attention to the government at all, not to mention that he didn't speak in the early dynasty, and it was even more exaggerated in the early dynasty, and all the things that were reviewed and folded were handed over to Zhu Youzhen and Sun Chengzong, and he himself mixed with close ministers such as the emperor Xu Guangqi and Bi Maokang all day long, and he didn't know whether he was studying or playing.
The eunuch thought that the matter was over like this, and the little emperor also had the same virtue as Ming Xizong, so he didn't want to care about them at all, as long as he didn't take the initiative to provoke him, he would be fine.
Of course, this matter will not be settled like this, Sun Chengzong never thought of letting the eunuch party go, he is secretly collecting information about the eunuch party members, as long as Yuan Keli and Qin Liangyu are in place, he will let Wei Zhongxian understand why the flowers are so popular.
Zhu Cijiong was not playing, after Bi Maokang and others arrived one after another, he convened a small meeting of all his cronies and preliminarily determined the responsibilities of each person. At the same time, with the cooperation of Xu Guangqi, he performed a 'miracle', which made a few cronies stunned, really thinking that he was a fairy descending to earth.
At this point, his team is finally in place, and the responsibilities of each person are also clear:
Xu Guangqi, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites and a scholar of Dongge University, is responsible for 'invention and creation', that is, the transformation of the military knowledge in Zhu Cijiong's mind into textual things and drawings, which are similar to the printers we use now, but in the process of 'printing', he has eaten all the content of 'printing'.
Bi Maokang, the right attendant of the Ministry of Works, is temporarily responsible for collecting all the firearms information of the Ming Dynasty, and he does not need to design the flintlock pistol, as long as the time comes, the drawings will naturally appear in Zhu Cijiong's mind, and then teach him to do it, Zhu Cijiong mainly wants to guide him to make a series. After all, it is impossible for the army to be armed only with ordinary long-barreled flintlock pistols, long and short, single-shot, multi-shot, etc. Just like in modern armies, it is impossible to be armed only with rifles, pistols, machine guns, submachine guns must be there. As long as the first flintlock pistol is made, it is not very complicated to transform it into various other types according to its principles.
Wang Zheng was mainly responsible for collecting information on various handmade machine tools, and Zhu Cijiong wanted to find something similar to the original machine tool in his mind, and then guide him to make it.
Zhu Cijiong was ready to slowly guide him to summarize the theory of artillery warfare, and slowly apply modern artillery theories such as ballistics, coordinates, fixed-point killing, and intensive attacks to actual combat.
Song Yingxing, secretary of the Ministry of Industry, is mainly responsible for manufacturing, equivalent to the current director of the production plant, and he has a large group of craftsmen under him, Zhu Cijiong and Xu Guangqi and others can directly find him if they want to do anything.
The last one is Cao Huachun, the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch Bingbi, who is a professional eunuch with formal training, both civil and military, loyal and reliable, unlike Wei Zhongxian, who became a monk halfway, who is illiterate, treacherous and cunning. After a few days of observation, Zhu Cijiong felt that his loyalty was not faked, but from the heart, and he slowly regarded him as his cronies, after all, after cleaning up Wei Zhongxian, someone would have to take care of Dongchang and Jinyiwei for him, Cao Huachun was a very suitable person.
