At the beginning of the lunar month.

Juyongguan's battle report has been clearly listed in front of the emperor and the ministers.

There is no dispute, Tang Yin made a great contribution in this war, although there is a suspicion of rash advance, but in terms of results, this can be more powerful than the "Yingzhou Victory", the point is that this victory is not obtained by the emperor himself, it is obtained by the courtiers, and the need to suppress merit has been lost for civil officials.

We can't publicize the merits of the emperor, which is tantamount to encouraging future emperors to do the same.

But what is the credit of the courtiers......

Even if Tang Yin is a member of the New Emperor's faction, in the end, he is also an orthodox scholar, and he is still a famous poet and painter in the Ming Dynasty.

Encourage literati to serve the court and sacrifice their lives for the country!

Tang Yin's military achievements in Juyong Pass are undoubted, and the agreement reached between the monarchs and ministers before that is valid, and the specific content is that after the situation in Juyong Pass is completely stabilized, Tang Yin will be promoted to the governor of Xuanda.

Unlike the previous Xuanda Governor Fei Shangshu is a squire, Tang Yin, the Xuanda Governor, is still only a concurrently Ministry of Langzhong, and the right Jindu Imperial History should be further to the right deputy capital of the Imperial History, but because it is only a positive five-grade Ministry Langzhong, and the right deputy capital Yushi is already a third-grade foreign official, so it is only changed to the left Jindu Yushi on the basis of the right Jindu Yushi.

This Xuanda Governor, judging from his official position, is not as good as the governor of Datong.

But in any case, Tang Yin's career continues to flourish, and he has not arrived for a year and a half in the dynasty, and has become the governor of the Ming Dynasty, which is much more beautiful than when he was the governor of Sanguan in office, and the governor of Xuanda is second only to the existence of the governor of the three sides in the northwest, and he is in charge of grain and grass, baggage, soldiers and horses, etc., which can be said to be a military and political officer of one side, and he can directly be a scholar when he entered the dynasty in the past.

But in the end is he Tang Yin......

No one is ready to let Tang Yin return to the dynasty as a scholar.

The main thing is that Yang Tinghe is in the dynasty now, even if Yang Tinghe is gone, the follow-up civil officials will continue to suppress Tang Yin and not give him the opportunity to be promoted to a high position.

........

........

This day is early.

Yang Tinghe still looked sick, he didn't speak in the court, and listened to Li Kun, the right attendant of the military department, to summarize the report of the Xuanda War.

「…… At present, the sentry cavalry has been out of the pass for more than 100 miles, and there is no trace of the Tartar shoe cavalry......

The situation in the northwest is that after Tang Yin won the Juyong Pass, the Tartars did not know what method the Ming used to win this battle, and their main purpose was to loot the border passes, originally thought that they could take the Xuanda first-line pass at a very small price, and from then on they could arbitrarily crisscross the land south of Zhangjiakou and plunder freely, who knows that they inexplicably suffered a big defeat.

Therefore, the Tartar people's offensive on the passes around Xuanfu came to an abrupt end, and they decisively withdrew their troops and fled to Mobei.

Originally, Li Kun also wanted to express this meaning.

But if you are afraid, you are afraid of people with ulterior motives.

In order to highlight that Tang Yin was "using troops without authorization", the military department played some tricks in the report, only mentioning that there was no shadow of Tartar soldiers and horses outside the northwest border pass, which would make uninformed people think that the main Tartar force had never attacked Xuanfu at all, and Tang Yin defeated only some stragglers of the Tartars.

It may be that a group of herdsmen who came from nowhere got lost after entering the Daming Pass, accidentally ran to the Juyong Pass, and were taught a lesson by Tang Yin.

As for what Tang Yin reported earlier, it was said that the Tartars used cavalry to attack the inner pass and drove straight in, not plundering but harassing the fortresses and passes, in order to respond to the main Tartar force to attack Xuanfu Town, this ...... It is equivalent to being denied, which is to combat the tactical rationality of Tang Yin's use of 3,000 cavalry to lure the enemy.

In order to deny Tang Yin's merits, civil officials simply spared no effort.

After Zhu Si listened, he asked impatiently, "The Tartars disappeared outside the Xuanfu, did they not come, or did they withdraw their troops after the victory in the Battle of Juyongguan in the Tang Dynasty?"

"Uh......"

Li Kun was hesitant to answer.

The Ministry of War knew very well that Xuanfu had actually encountered wars before, but as soon as the war started, Tang Yin's side won the battle, the Tatars

Before he seriously attacked Zhangjiakou and other fortresses, he decisively chose to withdraw his troops.

Now the emperor has to ask this, which means that the emperor wants to show his merits for Tang Yin.

But this is not in the interests of the orthodox civil service system, and if you can't tell a lie, then pretend to be confused and don't answer.

Zhu Si said angrily: "The military department won't even check this out, right? I clearly remember that the Xuanfu had reported on the battle before, so do you want me to make all the war reports of the Xuanfu public before I admit it?"

Peng Ze walked and said, "Your Majesty, the Tartars have withdrawn, and there is no information on the danger of other passes in Xuanfu Town, so it seems that there is no need to dwell on some details."

It means that the past is all over, not to mention whether he was scared away by Tang Yin, or the Tartars were just harassing at all, or the main force did not come.

Let's talk about something else.

Zhu Si called a nest fire in his heart.

Tang Yin single-handedly ...... Of course, the main reason behind it is Zhu Hao's advice, which changed the strategic pattern of the northwest and fundamentally resolved the dangerous situation of Xuanda for more than half a year, so that Tang Yin was not recognized by the civilian officials?

How much do these people hate me?

How much do you hate the people around me?

And you said you weren't targeting me?

At this time, Sun Jiao came out, meaning to speak.

Zhu Si said, "Sun Butang, do you have any opinion on this?"

Now Zhu Si also feels that Sun Jiao is gradually moving closer to his side, and he is no longer a neutral, and may be his people.

At this time, it is estimated that Sun Jiao will not be able to stand it, and he will come out to speak for Tang Yin?

Sun Jiao raised the wat board and said, "Your Majesty, now that the Xuanfu treasury is empty, and the arrears are as many as millions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of stones, grains and grass, the Xuanfu region urgently needs to send court officials and middle officials to take care of the treasury affairs."

Zhu Si's face was still a little expectant, and he froze there in an instant.

Feelings: Didn't your old man Sun speak for Tang Yin?

Just offering to find someone to take care of the treasury?

Millions of dollars?

That's thousands of taels of silver!

However, the shortage of hundreds of thousands of stone grain is a little bigger.

One stone of rice in the Ming Dynasty, with the weights and measures of the Ming Dynasty, was about one hundred and fifty catties, which was equivalent to one hundred and sixty or seventy catties in later generations.

At the price of six or seven wen a pound of rice in the northwest, one hundred and fifty catties of grain will go to one tael of silver, after all, the price of silver in the northwest is relatively low, and one tael of silver and it is a good official silver can often be exchanged for more than 800 wen money.

Mainly because after the autumn, the Tatars have been attacking and harassing Xuanda place, so that the local autumn grain has not been confiscated, and now the Tatars have withdrawn their troops, if they do not hurry up to replenish, I am afraid that the next northwest soldiers will starve and freeze, and it will not be good for this winter.

Zhu Sidao: "The gap in the northwest is so big, I don't know who will go, can handle this matter well?"

Sun Jiaodao: "Now that the right attendant of the household department is vacant, I also ask Your Majesty to appoint a suitable person to take on this position."

The position of the right waiter of the household department has always been a hot potato, since Huang Zan was transferred to Nanjing after his previous term, no one can do this position for long, because there are too many bad debts left in the Zhengde period, and no one wants to take care of it, or it is difficult for ordinary people to clarify.

Originally, in the early years of Jiajing, the right attendant of the household department was Zheng Wensheng, and after Zheng Wensheng replaced Qin Jin as the left attendant, this position was vacant, and it was intended to be left to Shen Dongkui, who had been adding notes to the household department by the governor Jingchu.

Qin Jin, the left attendant of the household department, was transferred to the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites.

Now Shen Dongkui specializes in managing the warehouse of the Jingshi Division, and also receives the "Hubu Shangshu", of course, this Hubu Shangshu is a fictitious position, not a real job, and the official of the Hubu Shangshu Department is still Sun Jiao.

Shen Dongkui is about to hang the title of Shangshu, and the position of the right squire cannot be taken over, so he still has to find someone to take advantage of it to manage the Xuanfu Treasury......

Although Xuanda is not as good as the three sides in a strategic sense, it has always existed as the general treasury of money and grain in the northwest, and most of the money and grain transportation of the northwest border army are in Xuanfu, and whoever is in charge of the treasury of Xuanfu can be said to be the one who controls the economic lifeline of the northwest.

Zhu Si sighed, "Sun Butang, what I ask is, who do you think is more appropriate to let this right attendant of the household department?"

"The old minister doesn't know, he should be pushed by the court."

Sun Jiao showed the ability to shake the pot.

I'm only responsible for asking questions, not for solving them.

Zhu Sidao: "Then it's better to let Tang Yin Tang make the stage and directly lead the right servant of the household!"

As soon as the emperor's words came out, there was a commotion among the civil officials at the scene.

Lin Jun, the secretary of the Criminal Department, came out of the ranks, and said fiercely: "Your Majesty, it has only been a year since Tang Yin entered the court, where do you have the experience of governing one side? If even the affairs of Xuanfu's military salaries and grains are handed over to him to take care of, then it is strange that there is no chaos! In the minister's opinion, such matters should be taken cautiously and not hastily."

Lin Jun became excited, his voice was very sharp and harsh, and it was very uncomfortable to hear.

Zhu Si frowned and asked, "What is prudent, you can't make a rash decision, then you should have a suitable candidate!" You're half a hundred away!

Lin Jun glared at Sun Jiao on the side and said, "It's good to let Sun Butang go!"

"Haha..."

The people present couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Lin Jun made it clear that he was targeting Sun Jiao.

It's okay, you jumped out and mentioned what you want to co-opt the right attendant of the household department to take care of the salary of the Xuan army, and now the emperor will climb up the pole and propose to let Tang Yin take charge, you have discussed it in advance, right? Whoever raises the problem will solve it, isn't there no one to provide your grandson? Then go yourself!

Zhu Si was speechless, and his words were very unkind: "Lin Qing's family, please can you say something serious in the court?" Is there a way to let the household department Shangshu take care of the money and grain in the northwest? Or should I recall Huang Zhan, the head of the household department in Nanjing, and send him back to Shilang to re-transfer to the northwest?"

When Zhu Si mentioned Huang Zhan.

There was a sudden silence.

Huang Zan is in the court, that is a very special person, obviously a "female cadre party", but it was Yang Tinghe who recommended him to go to Nanjing to be the head of the household department, and because this person has made a lot of achievements when he served in the household department, his popularity is very good, but he can still be as stable as Mount Tai in the office of the head of the household department in Nanjing, and even Yang Tinghe took the opportunity to investigate the deficit of the southeast coastal defense, which did not implicate Huang Zan in the slightest.

The people present didn't speak, they were actually waiting for the people from Huang Zhan's opposing faction to come out and find fault and listen to how to attack Huang Zhan.

But even the backbone of Yang Tinghe's faction, such as Lin Jun, is not good for Huang Zhan.

"Let's talk about it again."

Zhu Si saw that everyone was silent, and he looked very impatient, he also knew that it had taken a lot of trouble to make Tang Yin the governor of Xuanda, and it was difficult to make him a household servant, and Zhu Hao didn't let him forcibly push this matter.

For now, he was satisfied.

"By the way, the household department hurriedly made a post-autumn summary, and saw how much food could be allocated to the northwest, after this year's war, the northwest should have a good rest, and not let my soldiers starve and freeze, this is a top priority! Sun Butang, I'll leave everything to you!"
