Chapter 324: Return to Yanjing
Originally, Sun Dacang had always had a pimple in his heart. But since Wu Haoxuan can sincerely apologize to him, this undoubtedly makes him very face-saving. The unhappiness in my heart is gone.
Song Yuchu has been paying attention to Wu Haoxuan's words and deeds, although Wu Haoxuan is too young, but he is very sophisticated. For Sun Dacang, it can be said that he first slapped him and then gave a sweet date, which eliminated the dissatisfaction in Sun Dacang's heart. This also makes Sun Dacang, in the future, probably forget those unhappiness and work hard for the northern government.
In addition, Song Yuchu was also very curious, how would Wu Haoxuan place him? It's just that Wu Haoxuan hasn't talked about this issue yet, and it's not easy for him to take the initiative to mention it.
The atmosphere at the wine table was also lively. They discussed the current international situation and the way out for China in the future. Wu Haoxuan also expressed his own views and plates. And this also made Sun Cannon and Song Yuchu look at Wu Haoxuan with admiration. At present, China is just a poor and backward industrial country, but Wu Haoxuan proposed that China must develop in the next ten years, become one of the world's powers, and join in the division of the world. Only in this way can China truly stand tall among the nations of the world and will no longer be oppressed by the great powers.
Whether it is Sun Dacang or Song Yuchu, they may have some selfishness, which is inevitable. However, more than that, they also hope that the country and the nation will become strong. And Wu Haoxuan can undoubtedly provide them with a broad platform. What do they disagree with?
After everyone was full of wine and food, Sun Dacang and Song Yuchu were placed in the wing room of the Liangjiang Governor's Mansion. The two of them will return to Yanjing City in three days with Wu Haoxuan. Now, the country has been largely unified. The next step is to build a new country, and then continue to develop according to the predetermined plan and work towards the goal.
It's just that. After that night, Wu Haoxuan sent someone to find Song Yuchu, and the two had a long talk. In this conversation, Song Yuchu also knew Wu Haoxuan's arrangements for him.
"Mr. Dull Chu, now China has experienced thousands of years of feudal society. There are also a lot of feudal remnants. If we want to make the country strong, we must find a way to break these feudal remnants. The biggest problem is corruption in officialdom. Three years of Qing Governor's Mansion and ten years of snowflake silver have become a well-known thing. But if it goes on like this, it is obviously not possible. Although the government in the north promotes high salaries and pensions, government workers are well treated. However, man's desires and desires are endless. There will always be people who can't resist the temptation and go astray. Therefore, anti-* corruption. For us, it will be a long and arduous task. I hope that Mr. Tan Chu will take responsibility for this and ensure that we can establish a clear ruler. Wu Haoxuan said solemnly.
Song Yuchu was stunned, there was no doubt that Wu Haoxuan valued him very much, and even far exceeded his expectations. Originally, he thought that Wu Haoxuan would make him a cabinet minister at most. But. Unexpectedly, Wu Haoxuan handed over such a heavy task to him.
"Young marshal, you really think too highly of me." Song Yuchu shook his head and smiled bitterly. Though. This is a high-powered position. But again, it also means a great deal of risk. This task is not so easy to complete!
"Don't worry, I'll give you all the support when the time comes. No one dares to embarrass you in this regard. I know it's a tough task. But if we want the country to grow. Somebody has to do that. Wu Haoxuan said.
Song Yuchu hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.
In Wu Haoxuan's plan, a supervision department will be established outside the cabinet to supervise domestic officials. Once corruption is discovered, it will not be spared. And Song Duchu. He was the first minister of the Ministry of Supervision. Wu Haoxuan also hoped that Song Yuchu would be able to build the framework of the Ministry of Supervision, and operate this institution to play its due role.
Of course, Wu Haoxuan also knew that this was undoubtedly very difficult. Corruption is almost a common thing among Chinese officials at the moment. Isn't everyone an official just to get rich? Cutting off their financial routes will undoubtedly cause them to resist desperately. But even so, this road has to be continued. Only in this way can the country truly become strong.
Song Yuchu agreed to be the minister of the Ministry of Supervision, which made Wu Haoxuan very satisfied, and a stone in his heart also landed. He has a good faith in Song Yuchu's character, and he also believes that the Ministry of Supervision will not let him down when it is handed over to Song Yuchu.
On February 12, Wu Haoxuan set off to return to Yanjing City. At this moment, Wu Xingquan and the Political Affairs Committee of the Northern Government and the General Staff Headquarters of the Northern Army had all moved from Shengjing to Yanjing. Although the northwest and the plateau are still out of control, with the current military strength of the Northern Army, it is no longer a problem to clear these places. By the following spring, after the troops had rested, it was time to march to the northwest and the plateau.
After returning to Yenching this time, it will mainly involve the establishment of the country and the distribution of a series of important positions such as cabinet ministers. Wu Haoxuan had already decided before that the emperor would naturally be made by his son Wu Xingquan. Wu Xingquan is only forty-six years old now, so he can't let him be the emperor at this time, right? However, Wu Haoxuan is the crown prince. In addition, military power will also be firmly held in his hands. As for the cabinet, the position of the prime minister has already been decided. This was already decided when Yang Du joined the Beiyang government. Yang Du is undoubtedly also close to Wu Haoxuan. Therefore, the military power and administrative power are in the hands of the hands, plus the Military Intelligence Bureau and the Security Bureau are also controlled by Wu Haoxuan, even if Wu Xingquan is the emperor, he actually has no real power.
Let Wu Xingquan be the emperor, and after a while, the addiction of being an emperor can be regarded as his filial piety. After all, over the years, Wu Xingquan has unconditionally supported him.
On February 28, Wu Haoxuan returned to Yanjing City. Yang Du, secretary general of the Political Affairs Committee of the Northern Government, and a senior official under the Political Affairs Committee, as well as a senior official of the General Staff Headquarters and the troops stationed in Beijing, came to greet him at the city gate.
"Welcome back in triumph." Yang Du said loudly. The rest of the officials and generals also chimed in.
Everyone's face was beaming. Nor did they ever think that the northern government would come this far in just three years. Although, the war is not over yet. However, there is no doubt that the government of the North will completely unify the whole country. And they are undoubtedly the founding heroes! With Wu Haoxuan's character, each of these people will be reused because of this.
"Everybody's worked hard. It's so cold, let's go back first. Wu Haoxuan said with a smile.
He led the army to fight at the front, and the rear was handed over to them. If it weren't for everyone's support, he wouldn't have played so smoothly in front of him. Therefore, the reason why the Northern Army was able to win so quickly was inseparable from everyone's efforts. This time, a new empire is about to be built, and it's time to reward meritorious deeds.
After entering the city, Wu Haoxuan first went to visit his parents, wife and children. After a few months of absence, he didn't even go home for the Spring Festival, which made him miss his wife and children a lot.
Now, the family lives in a palace and does not live in the Forbidden City. In fact, Wu Haoxuan had no interest in staying in the cold Forbidden City. The Forbidden City has been in the Ming Dynasty for hundreds of years. Although it has been renovated over the years, it is still too old. Wu Haoxuan doesn't like to live in an old house. In addition, there have been many people who have died in the Forbidden City in the past few hundred years, and it is unfortunate to think about it.
According to Wu Haoxuan's opinion, it is better to build a small palace in Beihai or Nanhai. As for the Forbidden City, it is better to be open to the public as a museum. After all, it was the place where the emperor lived before, which was enough to make the people of the whole country excited. If you charge for admission, you will definitely be able to make a lot of money.
Wu Xingquan is now full of red light, and he is probably already looking forward to the day when he will ascend the throne and become emperor. For Wu Xingquan, this is something that he has never dared to think about in his life! Unexpectedly, such a good thing actually fell on his head. So much so that when Wu Haoxuan asked him for instructions on national affairs, he directly handed over everything to Wu Haoxuan to arrange. Wu Xingquan is also self-aware and knows his ability, and the reason why he is where he is today is entirely because of Wu Haoxuan. If it weren't for this son, he would probably still be an alternate general soldier in Shengjing now, right? At most, he is just a small warlord when the world is in turmoil. Where can I have the opportunity to be an emperor like now?
Wu Haoxuan is also very satisfied with this. Wu Xingquan does not compete with him for power, which is undoubtedly the best thing. At the very least, he can make the country develop according to his will, and make the country stronger. In this way, it will also make the country take many detours.
After all, Wu Haoxuan traveled back from later generations, and his grasp of the historical context is far from being comparable to people in this era.
After that, Wu Haoxuan stayed with his two wives and son for another night. Especially his son Wu Pengfei, who is now more than two years old, has a tiger head and a tiger brain. However, he is not very close to him, who is a father. After all, the time that father and son spent together didn't add up much, and in the past two years, Wu Haoxuan was either fighting outside or busy with national construction.
