Just with a hard mouth, Zhu Si can fight for Tang Yin for the position of waiter.

Yang Tinghe will not make any compromises on Tang Yin's promotion to the Sixth Minister, it can be said that with him Yang Tinghe in the Dynasty for a day, it is impossible for Tang Yin to be directly promoted to the Waiter.

Of course, if Zhu Hao makes suggestions, there is still a certain opportunity.

But now Zhu Hao has made it clear to Zhu Si that he needs to let him recuperate for a year or two according to Tang Yin's intentions, so that he can take a good rest of his tired body and mind and prepare for another appearance in the future......

Zhu Hao must think about Tang Yin's body.

Zhu Hao was afraid that the wheel of history would roll in, and he would directly take Tang Yin's life away, and Zhu Hao's efforts in the past few years would be in vain.

In the past, Zhu Hao felt that it was a bit difficult to do this kind of thing, and even Zhu Houzhao, who almost accidentally fell into the water and contracted pneumonia, was not spared, Tang Yin was a normal birth, old age, sickness and death in history, but I am afraid that it is difficult to stop.

But after having the experience of renewing Liu Chun's life, Zhu Hao suddenly felt that maybe he was there, and Tang Yinzhen didn't have to die?

For Tang Yin, the second year of Jiajing has been a ghost gate.

It's just that Tang Yin himself doesn't feel it at all.

……

……

Scattered backwards.

Yang Tinghe returned to the cabinet with a serious expression.

Qiao Yu, the secretary of the ministry, hurriedly caught up and asked urgently, "Elder Yang Ge, how do you think Tang Yin's return to the dynasty should be arranged?"

Nowadays, even the employment of officials does not have to be based on Yang Tinghe's opinions, especially for a figure like Tang Yin who is on the cusp of the storm, only with Yang Tinghe's approval can the officials dare to make decisions and implement them on this basis.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Yang Tinghe is the prime minister of the Ming Dynasty today.

Yang Tinghe said, "If the position of Shaoqing of the Southern Five Temples is still not satisfactory to Your Majesty, then arrange for the Shaoqing of the Northern Five Temples...... Or transfer to a place, in short...... He cannot be made a minister. This is a bottom line that cannot be crossed."

"Understood."

Qiao Yu just said this to Yang Tinghe, and left in a hurry.

Jiang Mian hurriedly reminded, "Don't you tell Josh about the transfer of people from the Hanlin Academy?"

After the year, there was another thing that attracted the attention of the court officials, that is, the emperor intended to send the Hanlin officials who had previously been jointly played directly out of the hall after the expiration of the service period, and did not intend to leave these people in the six ministries, five temples or science and road, but directly transferred to the local government as officials.

It is like the punitive measures taken by Zhu Houzhao when he jointly knelt down in the twelfth year of Zhengde.

However, Zhu Houzhao also used a cane to punish that time, and this time the emperor adopted a more bell-and-whistle approach, putting people out of the mine as coolies......

From the point of view of ordinary civil officials, there is no essential difference in its effect, and it is all a means of humiliating literati.

There is no difference between suffering a lot of sin and suffering a small sin, both of which make the person concerned lose face.

Yang Tinghe shook his head and said, "Your Majesty has not yet made it clear in the court, so you can't greet the officials for the time being, lest you ...... Leave someone to talk to."

At the moment, everyone is just speculating that the emperor may do this, and the emperor has not put it into practice, and this matter is more of a side-by-side attack by the emperor, revealing relevant intentions.

"Tomorrow there will be a banquet at home, can the husband enjoy the light?"

Jiang Mian smiled and sent out an invitation.

Yang Tinghe was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

The friendship between colleagues is an ordinary thing, you must know that Yang Tinghe and Jiang Mian are a first assistant and a second assistant, where to see or not?

……

……

Tang Yin was still anxiously waiting in Xuanfu for the final decision of his transfer back to Beijing.

And Zhu Si had nothing to do, and actively carried out the plan of making people, but it didn't seem to have any effect.

Emperor Zhu's family, since Xiaozong, seems to be cursed, dry thunder does not rain, causing people to be thin, several generations are a single lineage.

Zhu Si was unhappy, but helpless.

At this time, Zhu Hao was still in Xishan, in full swing to carry out his "millennium plan", which was to design and develop trains.

Xuan freshman

The military and political power of the line is now basically controlled by the emperor, if everything goes well, Zang Feng will reach this position, and then from the Beijing Division to Xishan, and then to the front line of Xuanda, the transportation of troops and grain can be carried out directly by train, this road is actually not difficult, except for the middle way Juyongguan, the rest of the road is basically flat.

The principle of the train is not complicated, that is, the track is made of steel, and then equipped with wheels and carriages, and a large steam locomotive is used to drive it.

The principle is not difficult, but the difficult thing is how to build a behemoth like a train in an era of backward technology.

But Zhu Hao has a way.

After he arrived in Xishan, he worked as a coolie on the surface, but in fact, the emperor had already sent someone to say hello, and the steward of the mine arranged for him to keep accounts, saying that it was bookkeeping, but in fact, it was to draw drawings and let people make them according to the drawings.

When he went to Yongping Mansion before, he had already done some preparations there.

A large number of craftsmen have built the formed rails, and the strength and toughness of the rails have reached the standard.

Equipped with some smaller wheels to make a simple "human-powered train", it is actually a small board car, through two people like a seesaw back and forth to press down, with a chain to drive the wheels to run.

This kind of rail plate car has been found in the coal transportation in Xishan.

Zhu Hao changed the size of the rails to the size of the future trains, so as to manufacture the supporting board cars, plus manpower...... In just a few days, a section of three or four hundred meters long rails was paved with ready-made railroad tracks, and then this kind of board car was used to carry out coal transportation operations up and down.

Transported up and down the mountain, all the way downhill, with little force.

When going uphill, the coal has been unloaded, and the manpower is relatively light...... This makes it much easier to transport coal from the top to the bottom of the mountain.

……

……

Zhu Hao knew that after he became an official, it was difficult to take care of the heavy responsibility of becoming a scientific and technological power.

Taking advantage of the fact that Yang Tinghe is not in a position now, he has found an opportunity to personally go to the front line of workshops, mines and construction sites to work and experiment, this kind of thing will be one day less, and when he is really in a high position in the future, I am afraid that he can only complete these things in the way of remote monitoring.

At that time, it was estimated that the imperial court could not do without him for a day.

Now that Yang Tinghe is in the court, he has actually saved a lot of effort for Zhu Hao, at least Zhu Hao does not have to take care of all aspects of the court, the current court system runs freely, and Yang Tinghe is responsible for big and small affairs, and the officials can barely achieve clarity up and down.

But wait for Yang Tinghe to retreat...... It is estimated that a group of old ministers will also retire, and how many newcomers who came up at that time can provoke the beam?

At that time, the decision-making power of the imperial court was not in Yang Tinghe, but in him Zhu Hao, just one decision-making power could make Zhu Hao anxious and unable to pull away.

Therefore, Zhu Hao took advantage of the fact that it was not the time for him to take the lead and implement the promotion of scientific and technological progress as soon as possible.

Because the workload of the train system alone is extremely huge, and the cost is also considerable, Zhu Hao is obviously insufficient to raise funds by himself without controlling the Daming Treasury.

The first step was to transport coal from Xishan to the capital and Yongping Province by railroad tracks and human-powered trains.

The second step is to build the locomotive and carriage.

The third step is to extend the railroad tracks from Xishan to Shanxi, and then open more coal mines in Shanxi, transport the coal mines from Shanxi to the capital, and then send them south through the Grand Canal, and then transport grain and ordnance to Shanxi by train......

The fourth step is to erect more railroad tracks, preferably by train connecting the capital to Yangzhou.

With the current technical means, it is impossible to build a bridge over the Yangtze River.

At present, the biggest problem is to open the mountain and build a bridge, especially from the West Mountain to Shanxi this section, to cross the Taihang Mountain, although it can be bypassed from the north foothills, but the amount of work to open the mountain is still very large, plus there are many rivers along the way......

To design the route, Zhu Hao needs to explore it personally.

It cannot be measured by the railway routes of later generations, because in later generations, it will take several generations of route improvement and technology to achieve leapfrogging, and Zhu Hao must use the simplest method and the smallest amount of work...... Even if it goes in

Take some detours and detours, and also lay the rails all the way through.

……

……

Zhu Hao's time was only two months.

Originally, I thought that there was plenty of time, after all, he went to Xishan mainly to be responsible for design, and by the way, he was a supervisor.

Who knew that after a month, in the second half of the first month, Zhu Hao realized that there was really not enough time.

It is best to stay in Xishan for a year, and then make a few trips back and forth between Xishan and Yongping Mansion, and it is estimated that some of the designs can be finally implemented......

Just when Zhu Hao was busy with the train, Cai Ang brought Zhu Hao letters from his hometown, one of which was written by Wu Chengen.

「…… When the little friend of the Wu family heard about your existence, he was very happy and said that he was going to come to visit, but because he was preparing for the college exam, he was unable to make the trip."

Cai Ang sat on the stone platform with a smile and said to Zhu Hao.

After more than a month of "labor reform", Cai Ang seems to be much more energetic than before.

Reading people are like this, lack of exercise, people look quite normal, but the body can't keep up.

Once you put down your books and devote yourself to production and labor, even if it is not for a long time, you can still see changes in your spirit.

Zhu Hao said, "That letter ...... Can you show me?"

Cai Ang smiled and handed over Wu Chengen's letter.

Zhu Hao is the first time to see the handwriting of a famous historical artist, it seems that it can only be called good, although Wu Chengen studied calligraphy in his youth, but Zhu Hao usually sees a peerless master like Tang Yin after all.

Let's look at Wu Chengen's ......

It is no wonder why Wu Chengen only has one book to remember in the annals of history, and calligraphy has never been able to enter the house.

"But when we return to the capital, his spring academy exam should also be over, and he will come to the capital for a trip then. I told him that you admire him very much and want to help him get a prisoner...... But even if you are a prisoner, you have to be a student, right? He didn't want to be the ordinary routine of the warlord...... This kind of thing is just a recommendation, and I'm afraid there is no way."

Cai Ang is actually quite curious.

A Wu Chengen, Zhu Hao has never even seen it, he actually appreciates and values it so much?

He also said that he would help get a prisoner.

But the question is......

Are prisoners so easy to get hold of?

Do you want to help Wu Chengen donate a prisoner? What does the Wu family have a family background ...... And why do you Zhu Hao sacrifice money to help someone you don't know?

Even Cai Ang didn't want to doubt Zhu Hao's motives, he was curious why Zhu Hao did this.
