Although Emperor Chongzhen knew the story of Nan Juyi's rectification of coastal defense in Fujian and the defeat of the Dutch colonizer fleet, he did not understand it in such detail, and when he was in Tongzhou a few days ago, he also met Nan Juyi, and he had a good impression of him.

Although there were serious internal and external troubles in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, even so, when facing the Western colonizers who came across the ocean, they did not arrogantly and completely close off the country, nor did they show the slightest servile grace and humiliation.

On the contrary, even in the case of successive failed battles against Jianyu outside the Northeast Pass, they still fought a naval battle with the Dutch on the southeast coast with great vigour, and won a brilliant victory, so that the Dutch colonists only dared to establish a settlement trade point on Dongfan Island, that is, the southern tip of the island of Taiwan, and did not dare to peep into the coast of Guangdong and Fujian.

At the same time, the defeat of the Dutch also made the Portuguese and Spaniards afraid to harass the southeast coast of Chinese mainland.

These stories have been known as early as when the Chongzhen Emperor is still in the next generation, and now when he hears Cheng Jiming calmly, he has a different feeling.

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen looked at Shoufu Li Guoyi and said, "Does Shoufu have any objections to Nan Juyi's taking over as the governor of Zhili?" ”

Li Guoyi, the first assistant of the cabinet, also knew about Nan Juyi, so he thought about it and thought it was appropriate, so he said: "The minister thinks that Nan Juyi has served as a governor, understands military affairs, and has served as a waiter in the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households, and is familiar with the situation in the court. There is no objection from the minister. ”

After listening to Li Guowei, Emperor Chongzhen looked at Sun Chengzong and Zhang Weixian, who had not spoken, and when they saw this, they both said: "The minister has no objection." ”

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen said: "Since this is the case, then pass on my will to grant Sun Chengzong, the secretary of the military department, the minister of military aircraft, and the scholar of Wuyingdian University, to resign from the post of governor of Zhili, and the position will be immediately taken over by Nan Juyi, the governor of the Kuraba of the household department. ”

The people in the palace agreed on the successor of the governor of Zhili, and then they had to find a successor for the household servant and the governor of Cangchang, plus the vacant left waiter of the criminal department due to Hui Shiyang's appointment in Zhejiang, and Fu Zonglong's vacant position such as the right imperial history of the right capital when he went to the Wutang, also need to be agreed one by one, so the entire afternoon was spent on the personnel arrangements of the imperial court in the near future.

He Ru favored the meritorious work of supervising the construction of the Deling Mausoleum, and the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites was promoted to the left attendant of the Criminal Department, and He Fengsheng took over as the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites.

Bi Maoliang, the head of the household department, took over as the governor of the warehouse of the household department, and went out of Tongzhou, and Liu Yiding of the household department was promoted to the head of the household department, and continued to supervise the general bureau of the household department Baoyuan and the minting factory, and was responsible for the minting and issuance of Chongzhen silver dollars.

Today's Chongzhen silver dollar has been gradually popularized in Gyeonggi, Jiubian and Jiangnan, and is used by soldiers and soldiers, officials and officials, and households in Jiangnan to purchase grain and cloth, including taxes collected by the imperial court.

Of course, people who understand know that the Chongzhen silver dollar is not a sterling silver with full color, and it is not as valuable as the sterling silver of the same weight, but this understanding person cannot prevent a Chongzhen silver dollar of one yuan from being regarded as a silver flower or two.

In addition, the Chongzhen silver dollar is well-cast, the pattern is exquisite, and it is much more convenient to carry and use and even calculate than the direct use of silver in the past, so once it was launched, it soon became popular.

Historically, silver was used to pay, and merchants had to prepare a reamer specially used to divide the silver, as well as a silver scale to weigh the silver.

If it is a slightly larger transaction, both the buyer and the seller must bring their own reamers and silver scales, and in order to verify the fineness and even prevent the silver from being filled with lead and fraudulent, the silver must be turned into silver, and then divided and weighed.

This is a very troublesome thing.

And now there is the Chongzhen silver dollar, especially the Chongzhen silver coin with various sizes such as circles, angles, and points, which is a larger value and more convenient to carry, and it is also an unprecedented convenience for industrial and commercial trade.

Bi Maoliang and Liu Yiding, who have made great contributions to the design, minting and promotion of Chongzhen silver dollars, are naturally more favored by Emperor Chongzhen, and now they have the opportunity to naturally promote and reuse.

As for Fu Zonglong's vacant right capital imperial history, it was replaced by Liu Hongxun, the former Zhan Shifu Zuo Yude.

He Fengsheng and Liu Hongxun were both famous ministers of the Chongzhen Dynasty in the late Ming Dynasty, and both served as cabinet ministers, among which Liu Hongxun was the first assistant of the cabinet.

Now Emperor Chongzhen convened his ministers to agree on the candidates for various positions in the imperial court, and these two people, as in history, were soon elected again.

Liu Hongxun was in the position of Zuo Yude in the Zhan Shifu, and was dismissed from office by Wei Zhongxian and his party and returned to his hometown.

Historically, soon after Emperor Chongzhen eliminated Wei Zhongxian's party, he reinstated and reappointed all the officials who dared to impeach Wei Zhongxian's party and returned home because of this.

Among them are He Fengsheng and Liu Hongxun, and as soon as these two people came back, they were given important responsibilities by Emperor Chongzhen, among which Liu Hongxun was from the idle position of Zuo Yude in Zhan Shifu, and he ascended to the sky in one step, and directly became the secretary of the Ministry of Rites and a scholar of Dongge University, and soon became the first assistant of the cabinet.

And this Emperor Chongzhen in this life is not so easy to be impulsive, knowing that this kind of person with a resounding reputation but little practical political experience, even if he is talented, he cannot suddenly give a heavy responsibility, and he knows Xu Guangqi's character and official virtue and his rare Western learning talent, so he gave Xu Guangqi the position of the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Liu Hongxun of course lost the opportunity to ascend to the sky with the position of the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

He Fengsheng became a cabinet minister of the Chongzhen Dynasty in history, but he did not make much achievements, ups and downs many times, and finally returned home after being dismissed, the only thing that showed his discipline was that when he faced the rogues, he organized the township soldiers to resist in his hometown, and finally committed suicide in defeat.

Among the late Ming scholars and doctors who were full of hypocrites, these two people could be regarded as the late Ming Dynasty scholars whose conduct and ethics were still online.

Therefore, in addition to arranging the candidates he wanted to arrange, Emperor Chongzhen did not deny the nomination and recommendation of these two people by the ministers and officials of the Ministry of Shangshu, but accepted their recommendations.

For today's Emperor Chongzhen, it is very important to rectify finances and build military warfare, but it is also indispensable to clean up people's hearts, especially to clean up the hearts of the people in the world.

Listening to the advice of the court's important ministers and appointing officials with a good reputation and reputation among the scholars is also a job that must be done well.

Of course, there are some people whose current reputation is soaring, but which has been proven by later history to be nothing more than hypocrites who deceive the world and steal their reputation, such as Qian Qianyi and others, who will not be reused in any way.

There are many Donglin Party members, but the "Donglin Party Leader" like Qian Qianyi, who refuses to commit suicide by throwing himself into the water under the pretext of "the water is too cold", and shaves his hair and braids under the pretext of "itchy scalp", is really the best among the shameless scum.

Such a person, no matter how many court ministers recommend him to be reinstated, this Emperor Chongzhen will definitely not appoint him now.

Emperor Chongzhen and the ministers agreed on each candidate, the cabinet of the scholars worked hard to write, soon, a series of holy decrees were drafted, Emperor Chongzhen read it, by the scholars directly sent to the master of ceremonies and the cabinet with the seal, quickly sent to the relevant yamen, as well as the hands of the parties.
