At the beginning of September, Wuchang is still a late autumn scenery, standing on the Chaoyang platform at the highest place of the Phoenix Mountain Palace and looking at the surrounding low hills, there will be yellow yellow, green green, mixed with fiery red maple leaves, reflected in the rivers and lakes with microwaves, layer upon layer, like a three-dimensional oil painting is as good-looking.

However, Zheng Kezang, who was standing on the Chaoyang platform, was not in the mood to enjoy the scenery, his eyes looked through the empty space, looking at a port in the south, as if he had seen several sons who were waiting to sail away, Zheng Kezang, who was in his fifties, clearly had a concern and reluctance in his eyes that he could not see at ordinary times.

"Holy Lord," the waiter who was waiting on the side lightly draped a crane fashion on Zheng Kezang's body, and at the same time cautiously admonished. "The wind is strong on the top of the mountain, and the saint is just healing, so you should pay attention to taking care of the dragon's body."

Listening to the gentle persuasion of this chamberlain who had entered the palace during the Dongning period, Zheng Kezang, who had retracted his gaze, subconsciously asked: "Tie Qi, you say, have they already set off for Liuguo Gong?" ”

Gold, silver, copper, iron, wood, water and fire, is the surname given by Zheng Kezang to the inner servant, which is roughly based on the ranking of Jin Jiu, the head of the inner servant who served Zheng Kezang at the earliest, but the gold and silver generations have almost passed away, and even most of the bronze generations have retired, so that the iron generation is already the crotch level in the palace.

Tie Qi can stand out from the crowd of inner servants and become one of the closest eunuchs around Zheng Kezang, and it is a skill that must be mastered to understand the meaning of words, so he did not simply answer Zheng Kezang's question, but took the opportunity to persuade: "Since the Holy Lord is worried about several highnesses, it is better to recall them." ”

If others had persuaded Zheng Kezang, he would have been thunderous a long time ago, but Tie Qi was from the perspective of family affection, and his tone was extremely sincere, so Zheng Kezhang just shook his head gently: "You don't understand, if the eagle wants to spread its wings and fly high, how can it be kept in a birdcage, and if you don't personally experience the hardships of governing and building a country, how dare I entrust these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains." ”

Speaking of this, Zheng Kezhang cheered up slightly: "How can I be an ordinary old man who only misses his children and grandchildren, besides, if I want someone to be happy on my knees, I can also find Du Guan, Chun Guan, not to mention the emperor and grandson, Liu Guogong and they didn't bring their family members with them." ”

Tie Qi muttered, "The Twelfth Prince, the Thirteenth Prince, and several older Imperial Grandsons have all entered the Young Martial Arts School??????"

Zheng Kezhang glared at Tie Qi: "You also said, are you pampered and coquettish, am I so weak in your eyes?" ”

Don't look at Tie Qi's current Huangmen Supervisor with the same five grades - the Huaxia eunuchs are divided into nine grades, namely the Huangmen Order of the same four grades, the Huangmen Supervisor of the same five grades, the Huangmen Zuocheng of the same six grades, the Yellow Gate Right Cheng of the same seven grades, the big Yellow Gate of the same eight grades, the Huangmen Lang of the same nine grades, the middle Huangmen of the first rank of the same stream, the second rank of the Yellow Gate of the same stream, and the small Yellow Gate of the third rank of the same stream, of course, these are all official ranks, and the specific assignments are divided into several functions such as the governor, the chief, the emperor, and the long attendant - Still the same frightened to his knees.

Before Tie Qi could ask for guilt, Zheng Kezhang waved his hand: "Okay, don't pretend to be pitiful, I'm not in the mood to listen to you howl." ”

Tie Qi got up tremblingly at this time, and persuaded again: "Saint, it's cold here, let's go back to the Imperial Academy." ”

"You old thing, you're really annoying." Zheng Kezang, who didn't want to vent his emotions too much, thought about it and finally agreed. "Okay, go back." A black chamberlain immediately knelt down in front of Zheng Kezhang and asked him to prostrate himself on his body so that he could carry him down the mountain. "I'm not too old to walk." Zheng Kezhang glared again. "Get out of the way, I'm just a bad cold, if I can walk up, I can naturally go down??????"

Back at the Imperial Academy, before Zheng Kezhang had time to pick up today's newspaper and read it carefully, Prime Minister Lin Weirong handed over a sign and asked to see him. The prime minister naturally couldn't see him when he asked to see him, but he couldn't see him in the inner palace, so Zheng Kezhang had to take a carriage down to the outer study, and Lin Weirong had been waiting for half an hour at this time.

"Lin Qing asked to see, what is the matter?" After Lin Weirong paid his respects, Zheng Kezhang asked while giving him a seat.

Lin Weirong, who was sitting on a brocade bench with his buttocks, reported: "In November last year, the matter of reorganizing the yamen of the various ministries mentioned by the Holy Lord has now reached a conclusion after the elders of the Bide Academy have picked up the gaps. ”

While speaking, Lin Weirong handed over a piece of music, Zheng Kezhang took it and listened to it, and listened to Lin Weirong say: "The cabinet thinks that it is unnecessary to change the three yamen of salt and iron, Duzhi, agriculture and forestry into three, and it is not appropriate for the criminal department to be changed to the yamen of arresting thieves. ”

Since there is no substantial difference between the ministry and the yamen, and there is no rank between the Shangshu and the ministers of the conference, nor does it affect the concurrently serving as cabinet ministers, only the difference in the rank of the court, so whether the yamen is changing the ministry is actually just a false proposition for Zheng Kezhang to disturb the sight of the government and the opposition, and the ministers will naturally not take it lightly. After all, one is in charge of justice, and the other is only responsible for specific affairs such as public security. Only the promotion of the Tai Hospital to the Welfare Yamen was approved by the Cabinet and the Bitokuin Academy, because in the past, there was no department dedicated to epidemic prevention and control, and there was a lack of system and no way to start at the local level, so it was necessary to establish a separate department for unified management. As for Zheng Kezang's so-called change of the school department to the Ministry of Culture and Education, Lin Weirong did not mention it, obviously thinking that there was no need to discuss it at all.

As soon as Lin Weirong's words landed, Zheng Kezhang immediately asked: "Then what is the cabinet's proposal on the establishment of a tariff yamen, a sports yamen, a large museum, and the demolition of the construction department?" ”

"The Cabinet believes that there is a close relationship between the two tariff departments and the salt and iron yamen, and it is not appropriate to set up a separate yamen." There was no such thing as a service government in this era, so the Salt and Iron Yamen strongly opposed the separation of the most important powers of its ministry, and other ministers also considered it redundant to set up a separate customs yamen. "As for the demolition of the work department, the subordinates are a little puzzled about what the post and office does be, if it is just to manage the post administration and horse administration, it is really unnecessary. As for the Shengshang's statement about the competitive yamen, it has never existed in ancient times, and I am afraid that it will damage the prestige of the imperial court. "The cabinet's resolution almost completely negated Zheng Kezang's proposal, and Lin Weirong was also a little frightened for this." There is no harm in setting up a large museum, but the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, and Culture cannot afford to do so. ”

Zheng Kezhang smiled coldly: "Since the Ministry of Culture and Culture does not have this budget, the big museum will be listed under the Gezhi Academy." ”

In the view of Lin Weirong and others, the big museum will display all the treasures, which should be the responsibility of the inner court treasury, and it is not good for the outer court to pay for it, but now the Gezhi Academy, which is also donated by the inner court, is responsible for the construction and management, so there is no problem at all, so Lin Weirong immediately said: "So there will be no problem." ”

However, Zheng Kezang's decision to talk about the big museum is only a strategic choice, and he wants to overturn most of the cabinet's resolutions from the smallest difficulty: "As for what does the postal yamen do? I think there are three main things, the first thing is to deliver civil mail throughout the country; The second thing is to probe the roads in preparation for the future construction of arterial roads connecting the whole country; Third, it is in charge of domestic and foreign shipping. ”

Zheng Kezhang has been researching steam engines for more than ten years, and has specially invited people to recruit Thomas Seville, Thomas Newcomen and others from England and rubber trees from Portuguese Brazil. It is under Zheng Kezang's concern and large amount of money that the steam engine produced in China is now very close to the steam engine in the modern sense of Zheng Kezang's previous life, although it cannot be put into other industrial uses other than mine drainage at present, but at the latest ten to fifteen years there will be steam power that can be used on a large scale, if Zheng Kezhang lives long enough, he can also see the use of trains and steam ships in his lifetime, and naturally plan and prepare for the large-scale construction of railways in China.

"Civil Post?" Lin Weirong did not know the meaning behind the establishment of the postal yamen, but was attracted by Zheng Kezang's previous sentence and believed that Zheng Kezang was trying to expand his financial resources. "Shengshang, although the imperial court may obtain a lot of benefits from operating the civil mail, but now the people have their own urgent shops and civil letter bureaus, and I am afraid that if the edict is not used, it will be very difficult for the imperial court to compete with it."

The private postal service is a matter after the social and economic exhibition, and Zheng Kezhang naturally cannot push it to the market now: "How far can the express shop and the civil letter bureau undertake the mail delivery, and if it is entrained, how much guarantee will it be safely delivered?" I don't want to compete with the people for profit, but I can't let the imperial court keep the post station in vain, besides, there must be an address for sending letters, and the imperial court can take the opportunity to establish a house number system and a mailbox system. ”

"As for the establishment of a tariff yamen, there is a possibility of draining the salt and iron yamen," Zheng Kezhang snorted lightly. "Collecting taxes is collecting taxes specially, and what does it have to do with the management of firms, mines, and shipyards, there is always no confusion between taxes and fees, so that some officials can run their own businesses."

Although the weather was already getting colder, Lin Weirong's forehead was still sweating: "Minister, minister, then arrange for the cabinet to discuss again." ”

"The demolition of the construction department is one pile, and the customs yamen is one pile," Zheng Kezhang said, counting his fingers. "As for the Criminal Department, let's keep it according to the resolution of the Cabinet, the Athletic Yamen." Zheng Kezhang pondered for a moment. "The imperial court can temporarily not have a supervisor, but someone at the local level still has to be responsible, and the cabinet will discuss whether it is better to hand it over to the general judge and the county, or it is better to be managed by the military department."

Zheng Kezhang slapped a sweet date, to which Lin Weirong could only respond helplessly: "The minister understands, and the minister will immediately convene a meeting after he goes back??????
