Chapter 362 The emperor's way of employing people is to come when he is summoned and to go when he is gone
At the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, he suffered from the Japanese invaders, and patrolling the sea to catch the Japanese became a common errand for the meritorious generals, and after Zhu Di ascended the throne, he immediately sent Zheng He to lead the naval army to Japan, and finally let Ashikaga Yoshimitsu bow down to the vassals, so this coastal area also stopped for a while. It wasn't until a few years ago that Japan once again interrupted the tribute and vassals, and the Japanese were rampant again, but those strongholds and supply bases that had just become the climate were uprooted in Zhang You's sweep.
The overseer who accompanied the ship was to go to the West many times with Zheng He, and at the same time, Wang Jinghong, an experienced internal official and eunuch, compared with those eunuchs who often asked for bribes and pointed fingers, he got along well with the generals and colonels along the way. At this moment, after Zhu Di saw a group of generals in the Fengtian Hall of the West Palace, each with a reward, he met this henchman alone in Renshou Palace, and left a straightforward question on the head.
"What do you think of Zhang Yu's talent?"
Compared with Zheng He, who entered the palace of Yan at a young age, Wang Jinghong, who entered the palace late, although he also went to the West to envoy to various countries, his reputation has never been obvious. However, when he first established the crown prince, he once supported Zhu Gaochi, and he would make a few more turns and think carefully about everything, and after hearing this, he said cautiously: "General Zhang is cautious in his soldiers, never arrogant, and is quite well received among the generals. ”
"If you want to listen to these words, I might as well go and watch the song! I want to listen to your perception and ask what you think of this person. ”
Although he couldn't see the emperor's face with his head down, based on this impatient tone alone, Wang Jinghong knew that Zhu Di was a little annoyed. After a moment of silence, he simply said honestly: "General Zhang is bold and bold, maybe because he always shows too much selfless relationship, and the minister always feels that he is scheming. The minister heard that when he was in Jiaozhi, he once went to the Duke of Qianguo to transport things at the invitation of the Marquis of Fengcheng, and was rescued by the woman of Wuyi halfway, and later married back to make a side room. The woman was the daughter of Tusi, and she was a big matchmaker made by the Duke of Qianguo, but at that time he seemed to have forgotten that the original partner at home had been guarding the empty house for many years. ”
Hearing that the Son of Heaven above did not move, he continued: "He was transferred back to Beijing from Jiaozhi, and the boat of the King of Han was rampant, and the side room he brought back fell into the water, and the result was that his nephew Zhang Yue sent someone to rescue him, although he didn't know if his people couldn't save it or didn't save it, but he didn't mention it to the emperor afterwards. Before, his brother Zhang Xin offended the Jinyi Guard, who was originally allowed to return to his hometown, but he did not rush into Beijing, but let his son and nephew come forward to do it, and he quietly returned to Jiaozhi, taking care of his brother at one end, and accumulating merit and promotion without a sound. Therefore, the minister thought that this person was extremely tolerant. ”
Wang Jinghong didn't have any deep hatred with Zhang You, he wanted to take out these things one by one and say, but he knew that Zhu Di was suspicious, and the emperors he knew must have known, so he simply said all these things that should be said, so as to save the suspicion after the Son of Heaven was promoted, and it would be even worse at that time. And in his opinion, it is really not a good thing that the emperor trusts the Zhang family too much. Sure enough, after saying this, Zhu Di didn't ask anything more, but waved his hand and ordered him to step back.
"Suddenly come without being surprised, and add without anger for no reason...... Almost all of the promising people in the Zhang family are carved out of a mold, so in this way, Zhang You can bear nothing wrong, at least it is better than the unproductive mania. It's time to transfer Zhang Fu back from Xuanfu so that he can reunite his husband and wife and his father and son to reunite and raise them well. ”
Zhu Di muttered to himself, and then suddenly remembered something, and found the report sent by the political envoy of Shandong Province from the desk and presented by the cabinet. After reading it from beginning to end again, he thought about it for a while, and then casually mentioned a simple quasi-word on it with a red pen, and then called a little eunuch.
"Go to Wenyuan Pavilion to pass the decree, and ask Yang Rongjin Youzi to draw up the details of the reward and submit it to me. Also, you went to Zhang's house to spread my message: It's been a few months, and there hasn't been a single note delivered, which is really unusual. After reading the "Analects", there are also "Shangshu" and "Spring and Autumn", in short, regardless of the four books and five classics, they will be sent immediately after three days! According to my original words, not a word is missing! ”
Although the little eunuch said that he was less than twenty, he was also a person who had been in front of the emperor for two years, so naturally he would not stupidly ask which Zhang family to pass the decree. When he said yes and was about to go out quickly, he heard another voice from above, and when he was about to stop, he found that the emperor was ordering others. Rao was like this, but he still couldn't help but prick up his ears and listen carefully.
"Go to the imperial supervisor and instruct Zhang Qian, in the name of Wang Guifei, to reward the Duchess of the British Kingdom and the Duchess of the Kingdom of Qianguo with ten horses of cloud satin, and then let him go to Qingshou Temple to light the lantern...... Is it because the hospital raises so many people to eat dry food, they can't help the illness of the queen and Zhang Guifei at the beginning, they can't help the stubborn disease of me, and now there is no way to ...... Wang Guifei's illness."
The roar behind the little eunuch didn't dare to listen anymore, and hurriedly walked out of the main hall, and when he got outside, he ran towards Wenyuan Pavilion like a gust of wind, but there was an inexplicable worry in his heart. Since beating the princess and the princess, the illness is getting worse day by day, and the emperor's temper is getting more and more irritable.
Because Mrs. Wang knew that Zhang You's father and son were back, the Zhang family must have a lot of things, so she left Zhang Yue and Du Juan for lunch, and had to let them go back early. After leaving the British Mansion and getting into the carriage, Zhang Yue was about to say something, but as soon as the car turned, he felt Du Juan gently grab his hand and quickly turn his head.
"Shouldn't Lord Meng come back?"
Du Juan was so straightforward that Zhang Yue couldn't help but be stunned. After being silent for a while, he smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Meng would do such a thing at the beginning, which shows that he is unwilling to be lonely. After all, the Marquis of Baoding, Ju Chaopin, is in charge of the Governor's Mansion of the Left Army, and he is still the brother of the Marquis of Baoding, how can he be willing to be a civilian? If he only relied on that merit to make a comeback, I am worried that he will plunge into the succession, and then it will not only be his own group that will suffer, even if it is the Marquis of Baoding......"
"In that case, I will go to the Baoding Marquis Mansion tomorrow to meet the eldest sister." Du Juan has a neat and neat temperament, even if she makes up her mind, "The eldest sister is the chief daughter-in-law of the Meng family, and there are some things that Baoding Hou should not hide from her." Although the eldest uncle did not say it explicitly, the meaning of the words was already very clear, and Lord Meng was still the commander of the guards in the mountains. The Baoding Marquis has always been impartial, and there will always be a charter for what to do in the future. ”
Hearing Du Juan say this, he felt that the hand holding him trembled slightly, Zhang Yue couldn't help but stretch out his other hand to hold it gently, but he couldn't help but think about it in his heart. The emperor has always had the disposition of not rubbing sand in his eyes, and the people who have been discarded and used are unreasonable to suddenly pull it out again, even if Meng Xian has made meritorious service - as long as Zhu Di is willing, great merit can become small merit, or even simply become excessive; So, why did the emperor, who was obviously deeply disgusted with Meng Xian, change his mind?
Can't help but intercede? Or is there something else at all...... Or do you want to see the reaction of the Marquis of Baoding? That is the Yongle Emperor, who is famous for his thirst for killing, but not the Kangxi who allowed Jiulong to take over the heir and sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and wanted the name of Renjun with all his heart! If it's really because of the big trouble, I'm afraid I don't know how many heads will fall to the ground.
Due to the victorious return of Zhang You and Zhang Chao's father and son, although the door of Zhang's house is not full of lights, there are few people who clean the front of the door, and deliberately hang red lanterns on the gatehouse. When Zhang You and Zhang Chao and his son brought more than ten accompanying family members into the alley and dismounted in front of the door, the porters immediately stepped forward to lead the horses and greet Dao'an, which was a lively atmosphere.
Because everything went smoothly when he faced the saint, Zhang You was in a very good mood at this time, and he reversed his harsh words to Zhang Chao outside, and after getting off the horse, he actually praised the eldest son for his proper behavior before he got off the horse. Zhang Chao was accustomed to his father's two-sided face in the first three days outside, and he was first sneering, and then he became happy. Just as he was about to enter through the west corner gate, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a car coming from the other side of the road, and after a closer look, he found that it was his own, and quickly stopped. Sure enough, when the carriage came to a stop and a person jumped down, he immediately rushed forward.
"Third brother!"
"Big brother!"
Zhang You turned his head at this time, and when he saw the two brothers smiling and smiling, he stopped and waited for them to step forward. He was not a Taoist gentleman with a straight face, he wanted to stand up in the army, but now when he saw his younger nephew, he suddenly returned to his old appearance. smiled and patted Zhang Yue's arms, he nodded very gratifyingly: "You are not only well-read, but also good when you encounter major events, many people in the army praise you for being clever last time!" This time, Chao'er and I cleaned up Dongfan Island, and there was nothing else to bring back, only a box of messy medicinal herbs. I heard that it is an aphrodisiac tonic, so I will give it to you when I turn around! ”
Du Juan also walked over at this time, and when he heard this last sentence, his face suddenly turned crimson. At this moment, only the sound of horses' hooves was heard, and then a fast horse carrying a man galloped towards him. Before he could stop, the rider on horseback suddenly jumped off the ground, dressed as a eunuch. The visitor looked around, and then walked towards Zhang Yue.
"Lord Xiao Zhang, the emperor has an edict."
The Zhang family, who were originally in a group, were stunned when they heard this simple sentence. A group of people hurriedly gathered for a while, and finally let the little eunuch who delivered the decree into the courtyard. After listening to the original words of the Son of Heaven, which obviously had not been changed in any way, Zhang Yue couldn't help but glance at Du Juan, and just as she happened to look at it, the four eyes were entangled for a while before letting go.
Thanks to Du Zhen, he once reminded the emperor that he was always on a whim, and he occasionally wrote a lot of manuscripts when he was free. You know, he is stealing half a day of leisure today, and in the next few days, he is about to fight in the ring with the two big men of the Ministry of War, Shangshu and the Ministry of Industry, but he has no free time at all, if he is not prepared at all, what will he present to the Son of Heaven in three days?
Come as soon as you are called, and go when you are lingering, this is really the emperor's way of employing people!
