Chapter 671: Replacement of the Military Department

The Regent's study building is small, with a row of green bamboos planted along the base side of the wall in the window of the front door, and four camphor trees with lush foliage on the back wall of the study.

These camphor trees are specially transplanted from other places, and the reason why Zhai Zhe chose them is very simple, camphor trees can repel insects.

From the details of these decorations and furnishings, Liu Suifeng believes that the regent is a typical pragmatist, who should not like glamorous things and should not like to be overly flattered.

He fell to his knees, his nimble mind not stopping for a moment.

"Get up and speak" Zhai Zhe looked at Liu Suifeng, who was getting thinner and thinner, thinking that he had suffered a lot in the wilderness of the southwest in the past six months, and asked with a smile: "You should have read the Tang newspaper of the military department in the past six months, what do you think of the current situation?" ”

Liu got up with the wind, waved his sleeves, and said: "The prince is far-sighted, stable and stable, Zheng Zhilong, and he does his best to deal with the Qing Dynasty, and he doesn't care about the gains and losses of Shaanxi, and he has opened up a front outside the country, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty is already a turtle in the urn." ”

"Don't pick up all the good things to say" Although Zhai Zhe was blaming in his mouth, he was actually very useful in his heart.

Stabilizing Zheng Zhilong was the basis for his achievements this year, and the imperial court was able to deal with the north with all its might. He can tolerate the Zheng clan's tearing of the earth and seal the king, and he is afraid of the Zheng clan's powerful naval army. Otherwise, even if the imperial court can pacify Fujian and Guangdong in a short period of time, there will be no peace along the coast of the south of the Yangtze River.

Hearing Zhai Zhe take the initiative to ask about the military, Liu Suifeng faintly guessed that the position of the secretary of the military department was about to fall on his own head.

He didn't dare to hide his secrets, so he told what he had thought and thought in his heart recently, and said: "In the current situation, if the king of Zhenxi can cooperate with the imperial army, the Ming Dynasty can crush the Qing captives from all sides and drive the Qing captives out of the fortress." However, the king of Zhenxi stuck to Sichuan, and was satisfied with getting the land of Hanzhong in the past half a year, so that several battlefields in the Ming Dynasty could only fight on their own. ”

"Not bad" Zhai Zhe is in the game, and he has more pain than Liu Suifeng. At that time, Wu Sangui rebelled against the Qing Dynasty and lost Sichuan to make the Manchus lose an arm, and today the Ming Dynasty reversed, and Wu Sangui cut off Sichuan to make the Ming Dynasty like a fish in the throat.

"But the imperial court cannot be treacherous to the king of Zhenxi at the moment. The fiefdoms of King Zhenxi and King Zhenhai are thousands of miles apart, but the change in the court's strategy for one person will make the other person afraid, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no turmoil. ”

Liu Suifeng said: "What the prince said is extremely true, but Zheng Zhilong has already sent Shi Fu to lead the army north to help the war, and Wu Sangui has been shrinking in Hanzhong for half a year without moving. ”

Zhai Zhe fell into deep thought, and then slowly shook his head.

Liu Suifeng knew that the regent was now in power, but he didn't understand the influence of the imperial order in the Ming Dynasty. Zhai Zhe and Zong Mao both entered the Central Plains from the grassland barbarian land, and Liu Suifeng had already appeared, these people never took the emperor of the Ming Dynasty to heart, and thought that others regarded the emperor as indifferent like them.

He gave his advice: "Lord, the imperial court can send the imperial historian to rebuke the king of Zhenxi with a holy decree, and can let a civil official be the supervisor of the army and supervise the king of Zhenxi to fight." ”

Zhai Zhe thought about Liu Suifeng's words, and at the same time was attracted by his high-spirited demeanor when he spoke. This thin body seems to contain infinite enthusiasm. Such a person looks indifferent and safe on the surface, he must care about power very much, but Chen Zilong can afford to let it go, wave his hand and give up the position of secretary of the ministry, and return to his hometown in Songjiang Mansion to farm for a living.

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you."

"Obey the order" Liu was overjoyed with the wind, and the position of the secretary of the military department was stable. His sense of joy was so powerful that he forgot to hide it.

Zhai Zhe saw this qiē in his eyes, and until Liu Suifeng woke up and restrained his movements, he also showed a knowing smile.

After the deliberations were over, Liu retired with the wind.

Every courtier who walked out of this library could see a huge map before going out, and Liu Suifeng was no exception. He had kept the map in his mind and asked the missionaries of Zephan to verify it, and even the merchant travelers who had been walking the sea all the year round could not know all the six places marked on the map.

However, for many years, the threat to the Central Plains has come from the grasslands of the north.

Liu Suifeng tried to guess what the regent was thinking from every detail, and only then could he be invincible in the court.

Today's Cabinet submission is nothing important.

After Liu left with the wind, Zhai Zhe ordered to summon Qian Sule, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Chen Zizhuang, the left attendant of the Ministry of War.

The impact of providing the Inferior Bird Gun in the armies of the Armory Workshop is far greater than those people think. The Liu family gave up the workshop, which was a punishment for the Liu family, but the responsibility was not only on the Liu family, and the Ministry of War had a supervisory department to manage firearms.

What Zhai Zhe couldn't tolerate the most was the procrastination of the Ministry of War in handling this matter. Qian Sule should have known a long time ago, did he regard himself as Emperor Longwu who didn't care about anything?

The north and south windows of the study building were ajar, and the early summer wind swept back and forth, and the submission on the table was opened.

While waiting, Zhai Zhe unconsciously looked up and saw submissions more than two feet high placed on both sides of the desk. Here are the folds and submissions accumulated in seven days, and every item sent to his desk is related to the fate of countless people.

I heard that Taizu used to deal with court affairs until late at night every day, but he really didn't want to bury the rest of his life in these endless cases.

Thinking of Ming Taizu, Zhai Zhe naturally thought of the description of Ming Taizu in his history books. With Ming Taizu's temperament, this "bird gun case" will make many people lose their heads

"Qian Sule is old, give him a decent chance to return to his hometown." He made the decision in secret. As for Chen Zizhuang, it's a pity.

Halfway through, sunlight streamed in through the south window.

Qian Sule and Chen Zizhuang are in front of the study building.

Zhai Zhe ordered the guards to bring the two in, and before the two of them finished saluting, he asked directly: "Qian Shangshu, when did you learn that the four thousand bird guns were waste." ”

Qian Sule stood up tremblingly and said, "General Li's document arrived four days ago, and I immediately investigated the matter thoroughly, and only submitted it to the regent yesterday. ”

"However, Liu Quan came to this king yesterday and said that he already knew, and he knew about it before the batch of bird guns arrived in Li Laiheng's army, and he also said that there were people in the military department who knew about it."

Qian Sule was stunned and said, "......No, it's impossible, it's impossible."

Zhai Zhe asked, "Why is it impossible?" The bird guns from the Liujia workshop, don't they know the quality themselves? Chen Shilang, you are in charge of the weapon list, don't you say? ”

Does the regent already know the truth? A layer of cold sweat broke out on Chen Zizhuang's back. He was just about to speak, when he heard Qian Sule beside him smile bitterly: "The Liu Dong family knows, the military department really doesn't know, the Liu Dong family does this, where is the military department?" ”

Jiang is still old and spicy, and there is no basis for it, only Li Laiheng's documents are proof.

Zhai Zhe said coldly: "I have asked Liu Quan to transfer the weapon workshop to the Fan family, and asked Dali Temple to discuss Liu Taiguang's crime. ”

The punishment of the Liu family was so severe, Qian Sule understood what the regent meant, he knelt on his knees, and said: "The military department is not clear, and the minister is guilty, please resign from the post of secretary of the military department." ”

Chen Zizhuang's knees moved, but finally he couldn't help but kneel down and accompany him to resign.

Zhai Zhe stared at him, Chen Zizhuang lowered his head, and his knees trembled slightly.

Qian Sule saw that the situation was not good, and said: "Lord Wang, the old minister is not good at running the military department, Chen Shilang is honest in practice, and he is the official of the country, please be gracious." ”

"Qian Shangshu get up," Zhai Zhe sighed, "Go back and let the people who ask the Supervision Department report to Dali Temple by themselves." ”

He suddenly felt that it might be a good idea to match Liu Suifeng with a squire like Chen Zizhuang.
