Chapter 91: Breaking the Waves and Riding the Long Wind (7)

"Qin Du wants 20,000 people?" Zhu Cihong shook the letter paper.

"When the overseer is outside, he always has to make more false reports." Feng Yuanbiao said: "As long as 10,000 people can be allocated, Qin Du should be content if he wants to come." ”

"Then give him 10,000." Zhu Cihong put the letter back into the envelope and said, "Let him not send troops out before the reinforcements arrive." ”

"I'm afraid this ......" Feng Yuanbiao's face was embarrassed: "I'm afraid you have to have a holy decree." ”

"Isn't there any other way for this soldier to think about?" Zhu Cihong knew that the emperor's approval was needed to release strategic decisions, otherwise who could bear such a huge responsibility? However, Daming is an institutional society, and all links are full of unspoken rules. Of course, some of these unspoken rules are stealing public interests for private use, but some of them have become lubricants and convenient doors for the functioning of society.

Feng Yuanbiao thought for a while and said, "The minister can take the offense and send an official document to the Ministry of War, and then send a private message to the Qin Governor, advising him not to fight lightly." With that, he suddenly felt a twitch in his chest, and he coughed uncontrollably.

Zhu Cihong had long heard that Feng Yuanbiao resigned due to serious illness when he took office as the secretary of the Ministry of War, but the emperor refused and sent an imperial doctor to treat him, so he took it. Now that he has been coughing like this after saying a few words, it seems that he is really dying. Emperor Bixia changed people too quickly, and a steady old minister like Feng Yuanbiao was already one less than one.

Chen Yan, a newcomer who was only released during the Chongzhen period, can now enter the cabinet and take charge of politics. Facts have proved that without the tempering of time, there is simply not enough fame and courage to bear the belongings of the Ming Dynasty.

"This soldier should also pay attention to his body." Zhu Cihong said: "I have a friend, although his reputation is not good, but he is indeed the holy hand of the national doctor, if this soldier is willing, I will ask him to visit the house?" ”

"How dare you!" Feng Yuanbiao hurriedly humbled his resignation.

"His medical skills are very good, and it's worth trying." Zhu Cihong heard that Feng Yuanbiao was not resolutely refusing. made a decision for him, turned his head to Tian Cunshan and whispered, "Go back and remind me." ”

"Slave maid go talk to General Yu, right?" Tian Cunshan flattered.

Yu Chang Yu Jiayan was the first general in the East Palace system, and his own medical skills were really exquisite, so Tian Cunshan thought of him as soon as he heard Zhu Cihong say "the holy hand of national medicine".

"I'll go talk to him myself." Zhu Cihong frowned slightly. Since he promised to treat Yu Chang well, how could he regard him as a diner under his door, and he would come and go when he was invited? This kind of house call. Naturally, you have to ask Yu Chang what he means first, and then Yu Chang decides the time by himself.

Especially at present, there is also the matter of epidemic prevention in Tianjin, and the Qingyi Medical Department and the Military Judge Advocate are the main forces in this epidemic prevention campaign. Yu Chang also had to give a medical lecture, and at the same time carry out the three-level assessment of doctors, doctors, and nurses, and improve the specialist doctor system according to the prince's opinion, which was really busy. As for visiting the clinic in person, it was already a very distant thing for him.

Feng Yuanbiao really felt that talking to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at this moment was like a spring breeze, and the whole person was warm, and even the cough was much better. People are getting older. Feelings are easy to get out of control, even if you have been polished in officialdom for so many years, there are still times when you can't control your mouth. He said: "The old minister knows that he is about to die, if there is an emergency, please also ask His Royal Highness to recommend Li Banghua and Shi Kefa to take charge of the center." ”

Zhu Cihong secretly said in his heart: Li Banghua wants to master the Metropolitan Procuratorate for me, Shi Kefa doesn't know what his ability is, and he has to see it.

"Why should this soldier be so depressed, and talk about it when he's sick." Zhu Cihong comforted.

Feng Yuanbiao was in a good mood. Salute again and thank you.

Zhu Cihong got the promise of the military department, and he was in a very comfortable mood. He knew that his father wanted Qin soldiers to advance. Now that he has contacted the minister, he has made a voice completely different from the holy will, and it seems that he has taken the first step towards forming a party. But now, where can we take care of so much? Just like in this era, if there are no antibiotics and disinfectant water, wouldn't there be no surgery? Only the living will be infected!

Just when Feng Yuanbiao was about to say goodbye, someone suddenly reported outside. Zhang Fengxiang, the squire of the military department, has an urgent military report to be submitted to Shangshu Feng Yuanbiao.

"Let him in." Zhu Cihong said.

Zhang Fengxiang had just finished participating in the platform call, and did not raise such a sensitive issue as the prince's wishes. He didn't know that the Metropolitan Procuratorate had fallen into the control of the prince step by step, and with those imperial historians, even if he didn't mention it. There are also people who mention it, and it can be said that this squire has wasted an opportunity.

As soon as Zhang Shilang left the palace, he bumped into the department's bookstore, who came to deliver the Luoyang military newspaper to Feng Shangshu. Zhang Fengxiang inspected the sealed wax seal on the military newspaper, signed the receipt, and personally sent it to the palace. Sure enough, he seized the opportunity, at least he could get acquainted with the prince.

"What's the matter with Governor Qin?" Zhu Cihong had to respect Feng Yuanbiao's authority, and Shangshu opened the seal for inspection first.

After reading it, Feng Yuanbiao didn't speak, and presented Sun Chuanting's recital to Zhu Cihong, saying, "This Qin Governor kills two birds with one stone. ”

Zhu Cihong took the military report, glanced at ten lines, his heart oscillated, and immediately asked: "Is this statement conclusive?" ”

Feng Yuanbiao pondered for a moment and said: "Whether Qiu Zhitao is the son of Qiu Shilang or not, you should also verify with Qiu Shilang." According to the imperial history, Li Zhensheng is an official and has a reputation for being honest. When Chengtian fell, the governor Song Yihe killed himself, and the total soldier Qian was selected to die, and it was originally rumored that he fell into the hands of thieves and scolded the thieves and died, but now I know that he is still in the world. ”

Zhu Cihong frowned slightly, and said, "If there is a later text on this matter, please inform me of this soldier." ”

Feng Yuanbiao nodded slightly.

What Sun Chuanting said in this military newspaper is that he has received the integrity of the pseudo-officials Qiu Zhitao and Li Zhensheng, and he is willing to respond internally. This increased the emperor's confidence in the southward movement of the Qin soldiers, consolidated his position as the governor of Qin, and gained more trust. At the same time, between the lines, it is all saying: Now the situation is not bad, you can fight, but if reinforcements do not come, then the great opportunity can only be missed.

One is self-esteem, and the other is asking for help, so Feng Yuanbiao said that Sun Chuanting is killing two birds with one stone.

"It's hard for a warlike overseer to bother playing with these word games." Zhu Cihong said: "But it's a matter of confidentiality, and it must not be made public, only secretly." ”

"I understand." Feng Yuan said.

Zhu Cihong sighed: "There are many cheaters in the court, I'm afraid this matter has already spread." ”

"This ...... Not really, right? Feng Yuanbiao was stunned. This is a transfer from the Ministry of War, with a secret signature wax mark as a mark, who dares to dismantle it privately?

"In terms of use, whether it is a slave or a thief, it is above the court." Zhu Cihong said helplessly: "This soldier still sent his elite family members to Luoyang, so that Qin Governor advised Qiu Zhitao and Li Zhensheng not to move, and endure humiliation for a year, and when the time is ripe, someone will go to contact and enable it." ”

When Feng Yuanbiao heard this, he knew that the prince had brought the two inner chambers under his command and did not expose them. Anyway, it's just two people who are trapping thieves, and the prince wants to categorically have no reason to disagree. Feng Yuanbiao said: "The minister understands. ”

"Okay, this soldier should go back to recuperate early, don't be too tired." Zhu Cihong got up and said, glanced at Zhang Fengxiang, and said: "Some things only need to be done, and it is useless to think so much." ”

Zhang Fengxiang hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look at the prince.

Feng Yuanbiao thought that the prince was really relieved to him, and saluted and thanked him, so he bowed and retreated.

Zhu Cihong sat down slightly, drank a cup of tea in the palace, and the face of the queen mother appeared in his mind, and his heart moved, and he shouted: "Tian Cunshan." ”

"The slave is here." Tian Cunshan was sent out just now, and hurriedly came in to deal with the matter.

"What was the name of the female official sent by Kunning Palace before?" Zhu Cihong asked.

"Back to His Royal Highness, his surname is Lu, and his name is Su Yao." Tian Cunshan hurriedly responded.

"Are you on duty today? Send her to me. Zhu Cihong said.

Prince travels, each class has a fixed number of people, no matter what the requirements, this class can do it. No matter what the prince suddenly remembered and what he wanted to do, he would never dare to disappoint the prince. If you make a mistake by chance, you will be recorded in a book and waiting for it to be published.

Even if Lu Suyao is not there, someone will definitely come in to do things for the prince. As long as Lu Suyao can do it, that person will definitely be able to do it for him. This is also a common drama in court struggles, jumping on the branches because of an accidental substitute.

Therefore, there are very few female officials who are willing to let people take the shift.

This also made Zhu Cihong always feel that the internal officials of the Ming Dynasty, whether eunuchs or female officials, were far more team-minded than the small white-collar workers in later enterprises.

"Slave Lu Suyao, meet Your Highness." After a while, the female officer who had lightly smeared the lead Hua responded respectfully.

"The queen mother asked you to serve in the outer residence of the East Palace, what else did you say?" Zhu Cihong asked.

Lu Suyao's face turned red, and she said secretly: Does the prince really not know, or is he making fun of me? Isn't it because you're here......

"Back to His Highness, it is Liu Gongzheng who is following the order of Yi and sending slaves and maids to serve His Highness." Lu Suyao lowered her head and said.

She is not yet qualified to meet the queen.

"Oh," Zhu Cihong didn't know if he was a little disappointed, "Then you go to Kunning Palace to report and say that everything is fine with me, please don't worry about the queen mother." ”

"Your Highness, if the queen asks about the preparations for the wedding, how should the slave and maid deal with it?" Lu Suyao asked with a red face. She was sent to conduct premarital education for the East Palace, but now that she has seen the East Palace for the first time, how can she go back to the errand?

Zhu Cihong still didn't react, thinking about leading the troops westward, and said indifferently: "Tell the truth." He didn't know what preparations the East Palace needed to make for the big wedding, anyway, with Liu Ruoyu and Tian Cunshan staring at him, there would be no mistakes.

As for education in sexual matters...... Who knew that the prince's early wisdom would even be able to do this.

Zhu Cihong stood up, walked out briskly, entrusted Lu Suyao with full authority to ask for peace, and continued to follow what had just happened in his mind, thinking about how to transfer some people from Song Hongye and Wu Changchun to form a team to collect information from the outside world. This matter was originally the task of the Ministry of War's staff department, but it is not easy for the current staff department to give a more reliable map, let alone carry out espionage work to the outside world.

- That Xu Dian doesn't seem to have made much noise lately, even if this kind of external matter is resold by him to those princes, it may not be much dangerous.

Zhu Cihong's subordinates still lacked talent, and after thinking about it several times, it finally fell on the head of Xu Dun, whose loyalty was questionable. (To be continued......)
