"The emperor is going to work as a carpenter for a while?" In the Dongnuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace, Wei Zhongxian made a courteous suggestion.

Apocalypse shook his head and sighed, saying, "How can you have such a mind now!" ”

The second year of the Apocalypse is really a very unsmooth year for the emperor who is less than twenty, just the beginning of the year is a large-scale attack by the Donglu, Guangning was conquered, more than 100,000 troops were completely annihilated, the general deputy general to the guerrilla brave general died again, Liaozhen only left a place in Liaoxi, the rest of the land was lost, the remnants of the soldiers and horses in Liaoxi only had more than 50,000 people, the dynasty was shaken, the people were panicked, and the palace was also very uneasy.

Fortunately, only a small number of soldiers and horses were left in the east to besiege the Thirteen Mountains, and most of the main forces of the Eight Banners withdrew to Liaodong, which also made Tianqi breathe a sigh of relief, and then adjusted the civil and military officials in Liaoxi and allocated soldiers and horses and salaries, Sun Chengzong was Tianqi's favorite candidate for Liaodong Economic Strategy...... With the respect of the cabinet department, Tianqi believes that at least within a few years, the Liao affairs will no longer be worried, as for when the entire territory of Liaodong can be recovered, Tianqi is very pragmatic, and has not thought about this issue for the time being.

Just after May, the situation in western Liaoning gradually stabilized, the apocalypse is concerned about the thirteen mountains of more than 100,000 soldiers and civilians, he will order the eunuchs to pray in the palace of the high emperor every day, and he himself also fasts and prays, hoping that God can have mercy on the Ming Dynasty, can make the civil and military officials at the border pass do their jobs solidly, and the soldiers can inspire blood sincerity and rescue these more than 100,000 people from the Thirteen Mountains, and at this time, Wang Xinyi's performance came from Datong, and directly stunned the apocalypse!

Wei Zhongxian was about to persuade again, but the person who saw the celebrant brought in a few manuscripts, and the one that was placed at the top was naturally Sun Chengzong's.

"Oh, Mr. Sun is here." Tianqi sat down in front of the desk and began to read Sun Chengzong's manuscript.

The young emperor's expression is very focused, and it can even be said that he is concentrated, which is different from what later generations imagined, Apocalypse does love to work as a carpenter, but just as many people in later generations also have hobbies, this hobby of Apocalypse is the same as that later generations of otaku like to make models, just a pastime for more than 10,000.

In the Apocalypse in just a few years of the emperor's time, the emperor's imperial Wenhua Hall has a lot of records of learning scriptures and righteousness, and there are not a lot of imperial approvals for reviewing border matters, after the middle of the Apocalypse, the emperor sees things more and more clearly, and deals with things more and more maturely, at least in the seven years or so of the Apocalypse, the overall strategic posture of the Ming Dynasty has not only not deteriorated, but has improved, and many people feel that if the Apocalypse can live to the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, the emperor is unlikely to hang himself in Jingshan, and the Ming Dynasty may not lose the country, and it is unlikely that the Jianyu will get the world.

As for the so-called Ming Shi who died in Wanli and Tianqi by the Donglin Party later, that is a rumor that is not cheeky at all.

Wei Zhongxian stood beside the emperor, at this time, he was very interesting and did not speak, the emperor had trust in him, but Wei Zhongxian knew that this trust could not be squandered at will.

"Mr. Sun is Mr. Sun after all." Tianqi stretched his eyebrows, and as soon as he saw half of it, he said to Wei Zhongxian with a smile on his face: "Big companion, Mr. Sun said that Wang Zaijin only took advantage of his tongue, and the rest had no real talent. ”

Wei Zhongxian hurriedly said: "Mr. Sun is Gao Ming, the slave maid also said the same thing before leaving Beijing, Wang Zaijin seems to be able to save national funds, but in fact, the people are uneasy, and the cost is even worse, he can't see this, it is far worse than Mr. Sun." ”

The most important thing about the apocalypse is Sun Chengzong and Wei Zhongxian, one inside and one outside, he is regarded as the Dinghai Divine Needle of the imperial court, hearing Wei Zhongxian praise Sun Chengzong, Tianqi is also extremely happy, smiled, and continued to watch Sun Chengzong's performance.

"Huh......" Tianqi looked at a few lines, and his face changed.

Wei Zhongxian didn't dare to make a sound, and his heart went up and down all at once.

"Big companion," Tianqi said, "Mr. Sun has invited himself to inspect Xuanda again, what do you think?" ”

Wei Zhongxian said: "Mr. Sun is worried that Xuanda will be unstable and affect Liaozhen? ”

Apocalypse agreed: "My companion's mind is fast, and I think the same way. ”

The master and slave were silent for a while, Sun Chengzong is the established Liaodong strategy, and the governor of Jiliao may be abolished in the future, and the Jingluo will be in charge of Liao affairs, Tianqi has no trust in Sun Chengzong's knowledge, character, talent, ethics, and all trust, his teacher is the best stable situation in Liaoxi in the heart of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and even the best candidate for recovering the lost land.

If there is another problem in Xuanda, it is naturally not a trivial matter, the current governor of Xuanda is not competent, of course, he must be replaced, but there is no suitable candidate in the DPRK now, and Sun Chengzong cannot be transferred to Xuanda? So who is going there in Liaodong? Can't it still be Wang Zaijin, or Wang Xiangqian, or even Zhang Heming's old slippery head?

Apocalypse pinched his eyebrows, feeling in a dilemma.

Wei Zhongxian didn't plan to talk much about this matter, he had already explained that the investigation was very clear, Zhang Han, a military official from a businessman, had some strength in Datong, and offended Wang Wenyan because of trivial matters, and it happened that Wang Xinyi was degraded, and Wang Wenyan put Wang Xinyi on the appointment of Datong Patrol by the way, and asked him to solve Zhang Han.

In Wei Zhongxian's view, Wang Wenyan, the Donglin think tank, is really the same as people say, his wit and wit are all first-class, but he is a little narrow-minded, not because of the political dispute, Zhang Han is just a commander of the guard and a businessman, but Wei Zhongxian knows that around Zhang Han is almost the entire Xuanda officialdom, faintly there is the power of the Jin Party in the northwest of the year, when the Jin Party was in its heyday and the Shaanxi Party alliance, almost the entire northwest region was controlled, and there were also quite strong forces in the DPRK, but after the middle of Wanli, The Jin Party lacked banner figures and gradually declined, and was replaced by the Donglin Party and the Zhejiang Party.

This kind of thing is simply chicken feathers and duck blood, messy, Wei Zhongxian does not plan to get involved in it, he has recently been laying out in Luozi, expanding his sphere of influence in foreign dynasties, and the decisive battle with the Donglin Party has not yet arrived, otherwise it is a good time to make a move.

Tianqi was difficult to decide for a while, and of course the celebrant and the cabinet also had no opinion, Sun Chengzong's book did not have a vote and was not posted red, of course, it was left for Tianqi to decide in person.

The next one is Zhang Han's self-defense.

Tianqi's impression of Zhang Han was not bad, it was not easy for a small military attache to make an impression on the emperor, not to mention that the emperor's feeling for Zhang Han was not bad.

In Tianqi's heart, Zhang Han should be a rather enterprising child of a family, successful in business, able to govern the army, and the kind of shrewd, energetic, and ambitious young man.

Wang Xinyi's impeachment shocked Tianqi, if it is true, Zhang Han is a hero-like figure, of course such people can't stay.

Zhang Han's self-defense, of course, Tianqi was extremely interested, and immediately began to read.

Seeing this, Wei Zhongxian quietly turned around, went to the door of the warm pavilion and ordered someone to serve a bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup, and then a little delicate palace point.

The emperor does not pay special attention to eating, unlike a few years ago when the emperor Wanli was there, the big eunuchs in the palace took turns to arrange the emperor's diet, so as to be exquisite, today's favorite food is a hodgepodge, that is, some shrimp, swallow vegetables, scorched clams stewed in one place, the emperor is full of praise when he eats.

"Big companion," Tianqi raised his head and shouted, "Zhang Han invited himself to Beijing to plead." ”

There was some confusion on the emperor's face, Zhang Han's defense method came from Zheng Guochang and Ma Chengen's suggestions, and did not refute them one by one, and some things could not be refuted, Zhang Han frankly admitted that he had mastered the mining of the Lingqiu Mine, but he resolutely refuted the accusations of his own fish and meat township and the annexation of Tianmu, Tianchengwei and Zhenyuwei's small and medium-sized officers and gentry in the area of Tian Chengwei He did not touch the fields, this article is very easy to refute, Zhang Han asked the imperial court to send personnel to thoroughly investigate, and the other is whether he has illegal affairs in the local area, Also ask the emperor to send someone to investigate thoroughly, as for the group training, of course, it is to prepare for the border defense, Zhang Han's tone is very honest and sincere, and he frankly said that he has mastered a certain amount of force, at this time he is starting from his own family background, after Feng Pangong, a hundred years of loyalty to the Ming Dynasty, although it is not a generation of generals, when it comes to loyalty, it is no worse than those generals, and the generals everywhere can master a certain strength of private ding, why can't the official gentry family?

Tianqi said: "The matter of group training seems to be the most taboo, but what Zhang Han said does not seem to be completely unreasonable. Prepare for border defense, the border army collapsed, the local garrison is not strict, he is the most taboo for people like him to be unstable on the border, after the closure of the horse market, the northern captives began to commotion again, it is to prepare for group training with Zhang Han's own monks, and also go north to build forts to defend the border, this matter is also allowed ......by the imperial court."

Wei Zhongxian said: "Seeing the line and seeing the heart, Zhang Han is loyal, and the imperial court can't inspect it, or from his deeds, the imperial court must find out whether he has a lot of illegal things, whether the place is oppressed by it, whether the officials are held hostage by it, whether the former governor Han Qi is assassinated for him, find out these things, and the rest of the things will be very clear." ”

Tianqi said: "What the companion said is very right, check, of course, it is necessary to investigate thoroughly." Zhang Han's folding ceremony was approved first, and the imperial court wanted to send someone to investigate, and he stayed at home, and he would talk about it after he found it out. ”

Wei Zhongxian also admired it a little in his heart, and the emperor's scheming skills became more and more proficient.

Zhang Han's matter, if it is a real deed, inviting himself into Beijing may be a temptation, agreeing to him to come, Zhang Han will not come, and may even directly pull the flag to rebel, which is naturally not conducive to the overall situation of the imperial court.

If it is found to be true, the court will either arrest it or deploy troops, which can always reduce the disaster to the lightest degree.

If it is found out that Wang Xinyi is playing falsely, then Zhang Han will have nothing to do, or he will not move in Datong, or he will summon the Beijing master to see him, which is also a matter of edict, and there is no need to rush to call this person into Beijing at this time.

With the energy of Heyusheng's news channel in Beijing, Sun Chengzong asked himself to inspect the manuscript of Xuanda's affairs, and arrived at Zhang Han's desk two days after arriving in Dauchi.

"This old grandson ......"

Zhang Han shook his head with a wry smile helplessly, he didn't expect that this time he would actually recruit this Sun Chengzong! ――

Today is the birthday of the next walk, so go out for a few drinks in the evening, and update it in advance.
