Chapter 634: Family Banquet

The first major event that the regent did when he ascended the throne was to resume the scientific expedition.

The year after the Ming Dynasty recovered Nanjing, a scientific expedition was held, and Zhu Dadian stepped down because of the scientific expedition fraud case. After that, due to the continuous fighting, the personnel of the DPRK and China kept changing, and Fu Ma Shiying did not act, and the scientific expedition was stopped.

Chen Zilong borrowed the connections of the Restoration Society to select officials, and the staff of the General's Mansion were also promoted based on their old feelings.

The regent personally drafted the document and ordered each county to organize a hospital examination in the autumn, a township examination before the year, and a general examination in the spring of next year.

The officialdom of the Ming Dynasty is unprecedentedly efficient.

Zhai Zhe even announced half a year in advance that the scientific expedition was presided over by Zhu Zhiyu, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites. Zhu Zhiyu is a native of Yuyao, eastern Zhejiang, and he has a very good relationship with the Donglin Party and has known Huang Zongxi for many years. This is also a reassurance to the panicked Donglin Shizi.

The words of the scholars increased again, and for most of those who had read the book, a step to the body was more important than anything else.

Mafu.

Mafu is the second largest residence in Nanjing City after the Imperial Palace and the Jin Palace. Not luxury, but refinement.

The wealthy people in Jiangnan like luxury, but they are not the kind of local tyrants who pave the ground with gold bricks, but yearn for a kind of happiness of loneliness in the smoke and rain with an umbrella. However, their spiritual enjoyment requires endless material and lofty status to support it.

When there is no money, there is nothing. After the rain, they can only do it occasionally, and their favorite thing is to build gardens and courtyards that can only be owned by themselves. When you are in good spirits, you can invite three or five friends to enjoy it, which is the happiness of people who have taken off their chins.

Yang Dingqing stood in front of Ma Shiying, and he had no seat in front of Ma Shiying.

Ma Shiying crossed Erlang's legs and said, "Your father is already the governor of Zhejiang, you didn't have the opportunity to be an official, I won this envoy for you." There are many officials in the court, and the regent is not a saint, so I want to find a reason for using you. ”

"My nephew understands."

Ma Shiying took a sip of tea and said with emotion: "The ascension of the regent to the throne is an unprecedented good opportunity for our family. Others think that I, Ma Shiying, just sit in the auxiliary position and keep talking to the mud, but the prince knows my credit very well. If it weren't for me suppressing the scientific expedition for three years, the prestige of the saint would not be as dim as it is now. Just one way to open a scientific expedition can βŠ₯ the regent's more support. ”

Yang Dingqing's expression was a little gloomy, and he used to be Zhu Yujian's companion. But between family and righteousness, he chose the former. If Emperor Longwu was in power, the current situation between him and Ma Shiying would be reversed.

Being able to get out of the assassination case and squeeze out Chen Zilong, the secretary of the ministry, is one of the most proud things in Ma Shiying's life. From the Hongguang Dynasty, Donglin Party History Kefa and Chen Zilong were defeated under him one by one.

After showing off in front of his nephew for a while, he then instructed: "You have already got the edict, and there are two principles after arriving in Fujian, first, don't talk about personal affairs with Zheng Zhilong, don't think that the prince doesn't know; Second, don't be polite to Zheng. Zheng Zhilong is not like his imprisoned son, you have to be tough to stabilize him. ”

"Your envoy this time can make Zheng Zhilong write a letter to ask for guilt, that is the first class of merit; If Zheng Zhilong can give up raising troops, it can be counted, if the Zheng family is rampant and rebelling, I can only say that I have seen the wrong person. ”

Yang Dingqing pondered, secretly speculating about the meaning of Ma Shiying's words.

Ma Shiying woke up and said: "General Yuezhou is fighting fiercely in Shaanxi, and the prince doesn't want to fight on two fronts. "It's too difficult to sit in the position of the first person in the world and not let people guess what is going on.

"The Jianghuai war has been going on for more than half a year, and the military department is preparing to let the soldiers of the Jiangjiang Prefecture go home to recuperate, and you can use this matter as a cover-up."

Ma Shiying casually said that it was the key news of the imperial court dispute, and Yang Dingqing could only nod frequently.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The DPRK envoys went out of Nanjing to Fujian and Guangdong, Guangxi, Guizhou, Sichuan, and even Shaanxi and other places, and the most important thing was, of course, Fujian and Guangdong. At the same time, Zheng's sailors stationed along the Zhenjiang River were ordered to defend Chongming Island.

The summer grain has just been put into storage, and there are still three or four months before the autumn grain.

Yang Dingqing bid farewell to the regent and went south.

Yang Dingqing is not an old envoy, and Zhai Zhe agreed to let him envoy to Fujian and Guangdong, completely out of trust in Ma Shiying.

Ma Shiying's ability is far stronger than his reputation. In Jiangnan, if he wants to keep the official department from being influenced by the township party, he has no better choice except Ma Shiying. Zong Mao is impeccable in his work, but the secretary must not only be able to do things, but also be a person, and he must curb Donglin from becoming a party in conversation and laughter.

It seems that governing the country is much more difficult than fighting war.

In the study of the Jin Palace.

"Annoying" Zhai Zhe put down the submission in his hand and scratched his head vigorously......

This submission was handed in by Zong Mao, and he had read it seven or eight times. It is not that Zong Mao's arguments and arguments are not clear, but that this argument is not in line with the current overall situation of seeking stability

Zong Mao drafted a submission of nearly 10,000 words so quickly, not an empty clichΓ©, but combined with the actual situation in Songjiang, listing the distribution of land in Jiangnan after the New Deal, and the comparison between paying taxes and not paying taxes.

Everyone has their own position, and after the implementation of this strategy, the household income can at least double. But if the matter of the household department is so simple, does he still need to use Zongmao?

The household department has two priorities in the future: the implementation of the integrated payment of grain by the officials and gentry and the banknotes of the Ming Dynasty.

If these two things are done well, they will be able to benefit the world, and if they are not done well, they will bring disaster to the country and the people.

The premise of implementing the integrated payment of grain by the official gentry is that he has absolute control over the situation in the world.

The Great Western Army entered Yunnan, and Sun Kewang pacified the Shadingzhou Rebellion, and with the help of the prestige of Mu Wangfu, he absolutely controlled Yunnan, and implemented the integration of officials and gentry to pay grain. There are only a few lifters and jinshi in Yunnan? But if Sun Kewang invades Guizhou, Guangxi, and even Huguang and wants to implement the integrated payment of grain by the officials and gentry, he will wait for defeat. There has never been an outlaw who can get the world, and depriving a scholar of the greatest privilege is tantamount to making an enemy of the whole world.

The Ming treasure banknote is a double-edged sword.

This is a magic box full of temptation, the former Yuan line has treasure money, and the early Ming Dynasty has treasure money, but in the end it is all chicken feathers. Because human greed cannot be perfectly contained. People who really see the world and have no desire will not appear in the court, and they will not even sit on that throne. He believed that he could control the treasure banknote, but if the treasure money was only implemented in his lifetime, what was the difference from the treasure money in the early Ming Dynasty?

Zhai Zhe picked up the submission and rolled it into a paper tube and tapped it in the palm of his hand, and said to himself: "Zong Mao is not wrong, it's just that I should talk to him."

There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and Zhai Tianjian whispered through the door: "Dad, there is a family banquet today." ”

Zhai Zhe looked out the window, and the sun had set down the mountain at some point. It wasn't the first time he had spent an entire day in his study.

"Being an emperor is so tired," he staggered out the door with his hands on his waist.

The gate of the Regent's Mansion is the most luxurious place in the palace, Zhai Zhe worships simplicity, and the inside of the palace is far less luxurious than it looks from the outside.

Walking on the gravel path in the shade of the trees, the air is filled with the rich fragrance of osmanthus flowers, which were specially transplanted by Fan Yi.

When Zhai Zhe walked to the banquet hall, the three ladies and three children were already in the hall, and Fan Yongdou and Zhai Tang were waiting outside the door.

"Lord Wang" Ning Sheng hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to greet him. Zhai Zhe ascended the regent throne, and he was the one who rose to the fastest status.

The regent is like an emperor, but there are no eunuchs in the regent's palace, and his status is equivalent to that of the governor of Ouchi. After returning to Nanjing from Yangzhou this time to finalize the overall situation of the government, if there is no extreme situation, Zhai Zhe will not return to the battlefield. This was the beginning of the transformation of his life, Fang Jin's status declined sharply, and Ning Sheng's status rose.

Zhai Zhe nodded slightly, walked directly into the main seat of the hall and sat down, the rest of the people returned to their own seats, and the maid began to serve the food.

The hall was very quiet, and the atmosphere was a little strict, perhaps this was the oppression brought by the emperor.

Zhai Zhe didn't like the sound of sluggishness, so he didn't find a courtesan to help him, and he wouldn't find someone to sing a "Jinshan War Drum" on this occasion to add to the blockage.

Ning Sheng filled him with wine, and Zhai Zhe said a few short opening words, "In the past, I was fighting outside all the year round, and I rarely had time to get together at home. "He's not very good at mobilizing the atmosphere.

But as soon as the dishes were served, the atmosphere in the hall immediately came alive.

Almost all the dishes on the table are Jindi-flavored dishes, the wine is also Zhai Zhe's favorite bamboo leaf green, and the lamb is grilled with spices and salt, but there is nothing rare and delicious.

Fan Yongdou was the smartest, tasted a few bites, and said: "When I saw these dishes, the minister remembered Jiexiu and Dongkou. ”

Zhai Zhe's three children all grew up in Jiangnan, and Zhai Tianjian doesn't like this kind of heavy taste. Zhai Tianxing is still young, and because he often eats with Ulan, he does not taboo the flavor of the Northland.

Zhai Zhe praised: "I miss it there too"

"Me too," a female voice rang out in the room. Not Van Yi, but Ulan.

Ulan stared at the roast lamb and said with some sadness: "Lord Wang, I heard that Lord Wang has recovered Tumut Mongolia, I want to naturalize and I don't know how Brother Wang is now."

Tumut's shape is very special, and Zhai Zhe has clear information that Omubu Khan is still alive. But the Tumut Mongols were concerned with his long-term plans outside the country, and he needed to take Tumut completely into his hands, not hand it over to Omub Khan.

"On a festive day, think less about mourning." Zhai Zhe comforted softly, "When the situation in Shaanxi stabilizes, I will send someone to send you back to Huaxing Province." ”

"I'm going too" Zhai Tianxing was already ten years old, and he looked a little more stocky than his brother.

Zhai Zhe laughed: "Of course you have to go"

Fan Yi also smiled and quipped: "What are you anxious about, you must first learn to ride a horse before you can go to the grassland." ”

Zhai Tianxing raised his right hand and said, "Auntie, I can ride a horse, I want to go to the martial arts hall next year, and I will soon be able to learn to ride a horse." ”

Zhai Zhe said with a stern expression: "If you want to go to the martial arts hall, you have to wait until you are as old as your brother, and next month, you will go to Suzhou Academy, and don't waste your time in Nanjing City anymore." He is rarely at home, rarely disciplines his son, and as soon as he speaks, Zhai Tianxing hangs his head and does not dare to speak.

In recent years, Jiangwutang and Suzhou Academy have become the two fastest halls in Jiangnan, such as Xiaohe, which has only shown its sharp corners, but has already shown strong potential.

Suzhou Academy is famous as a cloud, and the lecture hall has a clear home, and there is no room and board, both of which are places where young people are willing to go.

The family banquet was not long, Zhai Tang and Fan Yongdou watched more and said less, these dishes were not even as good as their own food.

The purpose of the Lord Regent in inviting them over and entertaining them with such a humble dinner was self-evident.
