Chapter 902: A Scoop of Cold Water
Su Tiancheng returned home, Zhu Xianxin's expression was very excited, the things in the court had already been reported, his brother Zhu Xianxuan came to the capital and became the second assistant of the cabinet, Su Tiancheng also entered the cabinet and became a cabinet scholar, and there were two cabinet scholars in the family, this is not an ordinary glory, Su Tiancheng can't stay in the capital, but Zhu Xianxuan came to the capital, which also means that Zhu Xianxuan's family will also leave Taiyuan, Shanxi and come to the capital, so that Zhu Xianxin has a place to move, It's not so lonely anymore, and the children also have relatives in the capital.
Su Tiancheng is very calm, he thinks that there is such a situation, there is Zhu Youzhen's helplessness, but more trust, especially the words Zhu Youzhen said, the border army in Liaodong, the soldiers of the Yulin battalion, are all under their own control, this can be said that all the elite troops of the Ming Dynasty are assigned to their own command, which is impossible in the past, although he used to be the Jiliao Governor and led these armies, but the previous kind of commander was actually the commander of the imperial court, can be dispatched directly, which indicates that Zhu Youzhen almost handed over the Ming Dynasty to him. It is not easy for any emperor to make such a decision, and it can be said that it is basically impossible. If Zhu Youzhen can make such a decision, he can be said to be a very good emperor.
Judging from the pattern of the imperial court, Zhu Xianxuan served as the deputy assistant of the cabinet, indicating that he had a strong support, and he also entered the cabinet, and the situation of the cabinet scholars leading the army to fight, this was the first time that the Ming Dynasty appeared, and in addition, there were two cabinet scholars, which is also unimaginable, all of this is due to the emperor's trust, but all this. The Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of the Manchu Dynasty also looked at it in his eyes, if Zhu Xianxuan and his own approach were slightly inappropriate, then the attack encountered would also be unprecedented.
In this sense. Zhu Xianxuan and he both sat on the fire, and they should be extra careful in the future.
Of course, Su Tiancheng will not do the matter of commanding so many large armies, and this is not suitable, the elite army of the Ming Dynasty is all at his own disposal, what does the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of the Manchu Dynasty do, what does the emperor do. What does the cabinet do, I have entered the cabinet, but I have a little freedom, that is, the deployment of the Jiangning battalion is more convenient, as long as I think it is a suitable attack, it can be deployed and can be carried out. In fact, it was like this before, but the emperor determined this.
Ultimately. Su Tiancheng felt that the current change was not big, and the emperor did this, I am afraid that he would have to be more cautious, and it would be cold from high places, if it was because of his own inattention. It is very likely to lead to unprovoked disasters, and from the current situation, what the Ming Dynasty needs is stability, and what it needs is to forge ahead, not internal strife. If there are countless infighting, and the good situation is ruined, your efforts will still have no effect.
The key depends on what your purpose is, whether it is for personal glory and wealth, or for the future of the country, Su Tiancheng is not a rigid person, he will not give up his personal life because of the pursuit of a certain ideal, the purpose of his doing this, on the one hand, is to live a better life for his family, they are all people, on the other hand, a very important aspect, that is, to maintain such glory and wealth, is under the premise of a strong country, if the country is broken, What glory and riches do you have?
Adhering to this point of view, Su Tiancheng has his own bottom line in doing things, and he will always stick to it.
Su Tiancheng returned to the mansion only an hour later, and Zhu Xianxuan came to visit.
Zhu Xianxuan came to visit, this is a very normal situation, if Zhu Xianxuan does not come, it will be strange. Besides, Zhu Xianxuan came to the capital, and he also had to live in Su Tiancheng's mansion for the time being, in the capital, there was no other place to live, the emperor did not give Zhu Xianxuan's mansion, Zhu Xianxuan could only buy it himself, fortunately, as a vassal king, Zhu Xianxuan had silver, and he had borrowed money from Su Tiancheng, and he was also rewarded, and it took a while to find a mansion in the capital.
Zhu Xianxuan had a smile on his face.
After so many years, Zhu Xianxuan is still chubby, I can't tell how old he is, although he is also very worried in Shaanxi, but Su Tiancheng has laid a very good foundation in Shaanxi, Zhu Xianxuan is like a fish in water, and he is very comfortable.
Before Su Tiancheng could speak, Zhu Xianxuan grabbed Su Tiancheng, walked towards the study, and came to Su Tiancheng's mansion, which was equivalent to returning home.
Just entered the study, and before he could speak, Zhu Xianxin also came in.
Zhu Xianxuan had a lot of things to think about talking to Su Tiancheng alone, and when he saw Zhu Xianxin coming in, he didn't wait for Zhu Xianxin to speak, he spoke first.
"Sister, I'm going to buy a mansion in the capital, I'll leave this matter to you, you see I just arrived in the capital, and there are a lot of things, especially in the court, there are a lot of things in the court, it's too late to see the mansion, I have already told the housekeeper, the housekeeper will come to the capital in a few days."
Zhu Xianxin glared at Zhu Xianxuan, so many years have passed, Zhu Xianxin's identity has long been different, if it is said that in front of Zhu Xianxuan before, you need to be respectful, but now it is different, the key is that Su Tiancheng's status in the court is different, Zhu Xianxuan can come to the capital, can serve as the second assistant of the cabinet, and Su Tiancheng has a lot to do with it, if it were not for Su Tiancheng's outstanding ability and the emperor's attention, Zhu Xianxuan would not have been able to enter the cabinet.
"Brother, what you said, I know what you said, in fact, the housekeeper has already gone to see a lot of mansions, you are now the second assistant of the cabinet, I don't know how many people in Lu Dao are willing to sell the mansion to you, I helped you choose a place, it is on this street, the distance is not very far."
Zhu Xianxuan nodded hurriedly.
"No problem, as long as you look satisfied, after the mansion is settled, the family will move over, this matter must be as soon as possible, it can't be delayed, lest I hang on to the two ends."
After Zhu Xianxuan said this, Su Tiancheng also smiled and spoke, in fact, it makes sense that Zhu Xianxuan is anxious, in this situation, Zhu Xianxuan must show loyalty to the emperor, first of all, he must move his family to the capital, so that the emperor can rest assured.
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin, the matter of the mansion has been decided, in fact, it is time to relocate."
After Zhu Xianxin personally made tea for Zhu Xianxuan, she left the study.
Looking at the smug expression on Zhu Xianxuan's face, Su Tiancheng shook his head secretly and quickly spoke.
"His Royal Highness King Jin, congratulations on becoming the second assistant of the cabinet."
"Kun Yuan, don't say that, I can come to the capital, it's all related to you, you captured Dai Shan in Xuanzhou, and wiped out the Zhenghong Banner of the Houjin Tartars, who can speak for such a credit."
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin still understands, but I have to say some unpleasant words, you and I have entered the cabinet, this is the emperor's grace, you and I are in a high position, the responsibility is even greater, I am afraid that we will be more careful in the future, if there is something bad to do, we may be impeached."
Zhu Xianxuan quickly became serious.
"Kun Yuan, in fact, you don't say it, I also know about this matter, you and I entered the cabinet at the same time, in the imperial court, it has received everyone's attention, think about a few years ago, the vassal king was not allowed to participate in the court politics, this time I entered the cabinet, Zhu Youxiang served as the governor of Shaanxi, this is not a simple matter, I know that my identity has been attracted the attention of everyone, let alone entering the cabinet, as for saying that in the imperial court, I will pay attention."
Su Tiancheng nodded, he knew that Zhu Xianxuan was not simple, and he was well versed in the internal struggles of the imperial court.
"Kun Yuan, I also want to remind you, you are on a foreign expedition, the task is even more arduous, although Dai Shan was captured, but the Houjin Tartar has not yet broken his muscles and bones, and the strength is still strong, I am afraid that you have become a thorn in the eye of the Houjin Tartar, and you must pay attention in the future, I have a few guards by my side, and the kung fu is profound, when you leave the capital, take them with you."
Su Tiancheng practiced waving his hands.
"That's not good, those guards are protecting you, how can you follow me."
"You don't have to shirk, these guards can be absolutely trusted, I also know that the guards around me in the past are all good and uneven, after rectification over the years, this time I came to the capital, some guards are afraid to leave, especially those spies of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, it is impossible to be by my side, your safety is the most important matter of our family, there must be no accidents, I have instructed these guards, they will use their lives to protect you."
Su Tiancheng nodded and agreed, in fact, he was also thinking about this matter, Wang Dazhi was always by his side or not, he had to leave, at least he needed to give Wang Dazhi a space for independent development, this time Zhu Xianxuan gave himself a few guards, let Wang Dazhi cultivate it well, and when the conditions were ripe, let Wang Dazhi lead the army to fight alone.
Zhu Xianxin prepared a banquet.
This time drinking, Zhu Xianxin did not interfere, and personally toasted Zhu Xianxuan.
Zhu Xianxuan did not drink as much as Su Tiancheng, and he was drunk.
After sending Zhu Xianxuan to the room to rest, Zhu Xianxin told Su Tiancheng that everything was fine in the mansion, don't worry, in the future, her brother Zhu Xianxuan's family will come to the capital, and she will have a place to move around.
Su Tiancheng can decide a lot of things independently, only the exclusive things, he can't be completely in charge, the best way is to let Zhu Xianxin accompany him, but after he becomes a cabinet scholar, this situation is even more unlikely to occur, Zhu Xianxin must stay in the capital, so that the emperor and the court can rest assured, as for Chen Yuanyuan, he also temporarily stayed in the capital, and in the next time, his main responsibility is to conquer, and he can stay in Dengzhou for not much time, family affairs, I can only follow the development of the situation and take my time to find a way.
