Chapter 873: Prevarication and hard work, the doctor is difficult to do

Guo Jin is cautious, so he boiled up his qualifications to the servant of the ministry, but he was not as popular as Zhang Yue, who was twice as young as him, but he was not yet old and confused. To pick out the candidates to pick up the driver, Yang Pu and Zhang Xin proposed by Yang Shiqi, one is a transparent person who does not hum, and the other is an old slippery head who shrinks his head when he should shrink his head, it can be said that these two people stay in the capital, and they are not of much use. Thinking that he had already given away the power of the officials with both hands, it was actually the same whether to stay or not, so he quickly made a decision.

Rushing ahead of Zhang Yue, he said without hesitation: "Now that there are many things in the military department, Zhang Shilang can't get out of his body even if he is afraid, so I'll go." It's just that the affairs of the ministry can't be completely delayed, and there must be a proper person to take care of it. ”

Zhang Yue knew that he couldn't leave the capital at this moment, so he didn't mean to compete with Guo Jin at all, but after hearing Guo Jin say this, he stopped, and he turned his head to one side, who knew that Guo Jin was looking at him. After being stunned for a moment, he suddenly realized, and he didn't need to pretend to be full of bitterness: "Guo Shilang, Feng Shilang of the Ministry of War is still sick now, and there are many people in it, I can't be busy with a military department, how can I still act as an officer?" ”

"Originally, the acting officials department was the most suitable for Jin Shangshu of the Criminal Department, but Jin Shangshu suddenly fell ill a few days ago, and there was no one in the Criminal Department, let alone the Household Department. Now that the election of officials is suspended, that is, some ordinary promotions, Zhang Shilang only needs to report the maintenance in a timely manner, and he does not need to ask about everything. ”

Yang Pu rarely said so many words in one breath, and when he finished speaking, he picked up the tea and never said a word again. And Zhu Yong never did political affairs, naturally just sat and didn't speak, and Zhang Xin, the Marquis of Longping, had his eyes half-open and half-closed, as if he was asleep. Zhang Yue looked at it, and finally had to look at Yang Shiqi, but Yang Shiqi also nodded at him.

"You don't have to go to the Ministry of Officials to take care of things, let the Ministry of Officials Wen Xuan Shi Lang send a brief section of the machine to you every day, and you will send it to Wenyuan Pavilion at a glance. Now I don't want anything else, just don't overstock. ”

was able to make Yang Shiqi, who has always been diligent in government and public service, say that it would be good if there was no backlog, Zhang Yue naturally couldn't find a reason to object, so he had to reluctantly agree. Everyone discussed the accompanying escorts, departure time, state and county arrangements along the way, etc., and generally discussed them properly, Yang Shiqi stood up and saluted Zhang Xin and others solemnly: "If something is extraordinary, I will do my best in Beijing, and please prepare well and be careful on the road." ”

Seeing Yang Shiqi say this, Zhu Yong and Zhang Yue had to salute at the same time. And the two Wen and Yiwu over there understood the importance of it, and they also solemnly agreed. Because Zhu Yong and Zhang Xin still had to arrange military affairs, they left together, Yang Pu also returned to the cabinet first, Guo Jin saw that he didn't understand this situation, and hurriedly retreated, Yang Shiqi saw that Zhang Yue was only standing still, so he smiled at him.

"You wait a little longer, the master of ceremonies, Fan Jin, and the two will come over."

After the previous incident in the inner study hall, the internal officials are no longer as beautiful as the Yongle Dynasty, but this does not mean that great eunuchs like Fan Hong, Jin Ying, and Wang Jin are less favored, not to mention that it is inconvenient for foreign ministers to enter the inner palace after all, so at such a critical moment, these two people are naturally indispensable. Therefore, just seeing Cao Jixiang and another young eunuch leaving in a hurry, Zhang Yue knew that they were in a hurry to report the news, and at this time, he followed Yang Shiqi's meaning and sat down and waited with peace of mind.

Finally, Fan Hong and Jin Ying both rushed over, but left Cao Jixiang and the eunuch outside to guard. Fan Hong glanced at the Zuo Chunfang Si Zhilang who was still recording in the corner, and then coughed lightly and said: "Now that the city is full of wind and rain, it is also a big responsibility for the Jingshi to stay behind, so we have to pay more attention to Yang Ge Lao and Zhang Shilang." Especially Zhang Shilang, in addition to military affairs, we also want to mention the affairs of the War Bureau. Localities such as the Ordnance Supervision and the Gunpowder Factory have lieutenant commanders, and now it seems that such an important place as the War Bureau cannot be all inspected by internal officials, but by competent personnel sent by the Ministry of War and Industry. ”

Since the Yongle Emperor Zhu Di began, because he was not worried about the civil and military officials, he gradually set up admirals and eunuchs in various important positions as surveillance, however, first Huang Yan and others colluded with King Zhao, and then Wang Zhen made trouble in the inner study, and now although the military war bureau has not yet been clarified, the corruption and fraud in the interior are shocking, even if Fan Jin and the two are naturally towards the internal officials, they are also a little afraid.

"Since Father-in-law Fan mentioned it, then I also want to say a few words. The Ministry of Works' ordnance supervision has made craftsmen far lower than the military bureau, but now whether it is firearms or other weapons, whether it is the efficiency of construction or the power of new weapons, it is much higher than that of the military bureau, why is this? It's just because there are rewards and punishments in the ordnance superintendent, and there is less exploitation, and the craftsmen have hope, and they can report any problems to the top. The reason why there was such a big mistake in the military battle this time, but it has not come out until now, is naturally that the lower head is pressed too hard, so the upper head is completely blinded. It is said that it is deceived and hidden, and what I am afraid of is that I am so arrogant that I don't even hide it, but I don't know anything. ”

Zhang Yue had probed the wind when he went to the Shenji Camp with Li Cheng, the director of the Ministry of Works, and learned that the War Bureau was extremely powerful in deducting the craftsman Lu Mi, and he turned a deaf ear to the previous reward and punishment system, and his heart was already extremely angry. Seeing that Fan Hong and Jin Ying both looked a little unnatural, he accentuated his tone.

"The armament is unusual, not to mention that since the founding of the country, the army has been the heaviest firearm, and even more so after Emperor Taizong set up the Shenji Battalion. Whether it is a sword or a firearm, it is made by craftsmen, and if it is a little sloppy, the sword will become scrap metal, and the firearm will most likely explode, not to mention what happened last night. ”

Yang Shiqi is a traditional scholar, and he was a little surprised that Zhang Yue raised the military weapons to such a height, but the two of them are both civil ministers, and in front of Fan Hong Jinying, he naturally wants to defend one or two, so he echoed two sentences. Sure enough, Jin Ying also sighed: "What Yang Pavilion Old Zhang Shilang said is that our family and Father-in-law Fan will also take responsibility." In addition, it is the matter of King Liang. Although the Queen Mother woke up in the morning, her spirit was very bad, so she didn't dare to report last night's movements, but she couldn't hide it. We just want to ask Zhang Shilang, isn't your wife and sister in curing diseases......"

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Yue shook his head, and then smiled bitterly: "This thing is not proper, medical skills are originally years of accumulated kung fu." She has some reputation among the ladies in the capital, in fact, it is just because she is more convenient than those doctors and doctors to enter the house, and there is no need to avoid anything, naturally compared to the doctors, she is separated by a wall, but if you really want to talk about needles and medicines, where can you compare to these senior imperial doctors in the Tai Hospital? Moreover, the Queen Mother is a noble person, and she is stunned in her heart, and it is inevitable that something will go wrong. ”

Jin Ying originally had the idea of beating a dead horse as a live horse doctor, but when she heard Zhang Yue's words, she retreated. And Fan Hong shook his head directly: "After all, she is a halfway monk, if her master is here, it will be almost ......."

Zhang Yue's heart tightened, and he didn't pick up the stubble. And Yang Shiqi naturally wouldn't take this risk, just looking at the appearance of Jin Fan and the others, he became more and more worried - even if the matter calmed down this time, if the queen mother had any three longs and two shortcomings, the emperor would definitely be furious when he came back, and he would not be able to shirk the blame as a left-behind minister, and the worst thing was that he was afraid that the time would come to ask for the guilt and the city would be full of wind and rain. But this is just a tacit act, and I can only keep my mouth shut.

Fan Hong Jinying deliberately came together, and the gist was naturally not just the military battle bureau under the control of the inner court. It must be known that now King Liang has been placed under house arrest in the mansion, although Jinyi Weidong Factory can't do anything to the prince of Tangtang, but the people under him have already held a lot, and after being tortured overnight, they have pried open a lot of mouths that are not so loyal and unyielding. So, after explaining the progress of the trial, although the brows of the two celebrant supervisors were still furrowed, they were a little relieved.

"Whether it is the fraud of the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War, the conspiracy to bring cotton armor into the city, or the entrainment of gunpowder in the imperial city and so on, and even the troublesome matter in the inner study hall before, there is a real reason now. That's all it takes...... Alas, not much more. There is only one, King Liang is actually on a hunger strike, and since he was escorted back to the mansion last night, he has not drunk or eaten, and no one can persuade him at this time. Before the emperor came back, he categorically couldn't let him just toss himself, so the two of us could only come to ask for an idea. Yang Ge is the most old and serious person, and Master Zhang is the most scheming, so he must help think of a way. ”

Forget about other things, how to think about this kind of thing!

Zhang Yue only felt that his head was big, but Fan Hong and Jin Ying, the two eunuchs who were not young, did it, and they actually bowed to the ground against him and Yang Shiqi, and they couldn't get up so bent over! Yang Shiqi pinched his eyebrows vigorously, and said in a very uncertain tone: "Or, you will go and see the Yuan Festival?" If you can do it, it's best, and if you can't, it's none of your business. ”

Not to mention that Yuan Fang deliberately asked his father to bring a message, even if he didn't have this message, he would easily take himself out this time, and he wouldn't easily jump in again. After all, it's not the same thing to find out once in a while and to investigate and deal with it in person. So, he quickly thought about it in his mind, and then he came up with a way to damage it.

"It's better to let Wuding Marquis Guo Xuan go, and he will come forward to persuade him to make meritorious contributions. After all, he is an uncle and nephew, if he can make King Liang dispel the intention of death, the Guo family will naturally be able to tolerate one or two when he returns. ”

Before Zhang Yue finished speaking, Jin Ying suddenly straightened up, his eyes lit up, and he actually hit his left hand with his right fist: "If you can't, this time the matter will make a big fuss, and the title of the Guo family will be put aside, what about himself and the other children?" ”

"It's good, but I don't know if Guo Cong was forced to death by King Liang." Fan Hong reminded him coldly.

"Yes and what? People are dead, for the sake of themselves and the rest of the people, you have to try! ”

Jin Ying gave Zhang Yue a thumbs up as she spoke, and she didn't have time to delay any longer, so she pulled Fan Hong and hurried away after giving the salute. Yang Shiqi, who was relieved, was afraid that these two people would come back with something, and encouraged Zhang Yue to say two words such as those who are capable and work hard, and immediately walked fast, not at all like an old man in his sixties. As a result, Zhang Yue became the last one.

From the Wenhua Hall to the Donghua Gate, it is very close, but it is just a cup of tea to the tall city tower. Before going out, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the extremely conspicuous Renshou Palace not far to the north, thinking that Zhu Ning had really suffered these days. Jin Ying mentioned something, if he went to talk to Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu would probably agree with his mouth - that little girl was only afraid that Sister Ning who had been thinking about herself for a long time - but he couldn't take this risk, and it was expected that Zhu Ning would never want Xiao Wu to get involved.

To cure the royal family, a bad one will cure the dead! Doctors and craftsmen are rare talents in this era, but the former is still of higher status, but it is inevitable that they will be called by the powerful, as for the latter, it is simply like lowly servitude, no wonder the folk skills in the later period have been continuously improved, but various military technologies have collapsed.

Along the Donghua Gate, the East Shangzhong Gate and the Dong'an Gate came out, Zhang Yue and his entourage rendezvous, got on the horse and walked along the half side of the street along the fire road, and was intercepted by someone. Seeing Hu Qi with an anxious face, Zhang Yue suddenly felt a sigh in his heart, and hurriedly went forward immediately. After the two horses happened to misplace, Hu Qi lowered his voice and said, "My lord, last night's live mouth has been interrogated." The subordinates didn't dare to delay, so they went straight to the yamen, and found that you were not there, so they waited around here. ”

"Needless to say, go back to the yamen!"

The news of the fire in the palace shocked the dignitaries and dignitaries in the capital, and the nobles who had been living happily in the newly built gardens on the east and west shores of Shichahai moved back to the old mansion almost immediately, except for Mrs. Wang, her children and a wife and concubine who remained untouched in the English Park. The original house was too small, and the ancestral hall and so on were built here, so she naturally wouldn't make a fuss because of a little movement, not to mention that the ancestor worship was half a month later, and there was a pregnant aunt waiting to give birth.

Early this morning, Rong Shan brought the news that the Beicheng Soldiers and Horses attacked a house in the Houtoutang Hutong of the Dingguo Mansion at night, and at noon, more accurate news came again, saying that the Soldiers and Horses Division got the information that it was a thief, and the soldiers and horses commanded the greedy merit, but it turned out to be King Liang. Although the people have been sent back, the soldiers and horses have been banned, and the commander of the soldiers and horses is even more panicked. It's just that both Rong Shan, who reported the report, and Mrs. Wang, who listened to things, fell into silence for a long time after asking and answering for a while.

Just as Rong Shan outside the door was about to say goodbye, a daughter-in-law outside hurriedly ran over, and seeing that something was still going on here, she hesitated for a moment before stepping forward, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Qiyu, Zhang Shilang's Mansion sent someone to report the news, and the third young grandmother is happy again." ”

Mrs. Wang, who was meditating with her eyes closed, opened her eyes suddenly, and after a little thought, she stood up, her face full of joy: "Brother Yue's daughter-in-law is really blessed, go to the library to pick out a few gifts, especially the high-grade bird's nest you just get...... Wait, get your stuff ready, then go get the car ready, I'll go see her myself. ”

Everyone in the family knew that Mrs. Wang liked Du Juan, so she didn't care, and although Rong Shan immediately retired after hearing this, he knew in his heart that although the Zhang family would not be false when he sent someone to report the good news, it should be the drunkard's intention not to drink. Only the elders and the young are there, and there must be a good excuse for Mrs. Wang to go in person.

Having said that, that young grandmother is indeed a blessed person, and what is even more valuable is that she has a good way to govern her family and teach her children well. This time, whether it is a boy or a girl, the people in the third room of the Zhang family are becoming more and more prosperous, which is really gratifying.
