"Grandpa, can Your Majesty deal with it this time?"

Shen Yichen asked, although he knew that it was too late to take precautions, but after all, it was better than being unprepared.

"Your Majesty has ordered the general troops of all places to guard and drill the officers and soldiers, and to select the brave from the battalions of the Beijing Division. In addition, Yang Hong, the governor of the left capital, hung the general of Zhenshuo to print out the Zhenxuan Mansion, strengthened the courage of the border army, and eliminated the covetousness of the thieves. ”

Yang Hong, the governor of the left capital in the mouth of Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo, can be regarded as a famous general in the middle of the Ming Dynasty.

Hereditary military family, Yongle began to follow the Ming Chengzu Zhu Di's Northern Expedition, since then the town guarded the northern border pass, more than 40 years of countless southern expeditions and northern wars, laid a great reputation, the sound of the government and the opposition!

Even the Mongol tribes in Mobei were afraid of his prestige, and they all respectfully called Yang Hong "King Yang", and with him out of the town to guard the Xuanfu, theoretically it should be foolproof, and there is no need to worry about any chaos on the frontier.

But this time, I don't know why, Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo, always felt that the border pass was a little unstable, so he took the initiative to mention these military affairs to Shen Yichen.

Perhaps at this time, in the heart of Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo, Shen Yichen is no longer the young man who has not yet grown up, but a courtier who can take on the responsibility of governing the country by unifying the army.

At this moment, the two sides are finally in an equal position for dialogue!

"The Tile Spur Department has also opened up the Western Regions and Liaodong, and the north of the desert has formed a momentum of Mount Tai to the top of the Ming Dynasty. Relying on Yang Dudu to leave the Zhenxuan Mansion alone was not enough to deter the arrogant ambitions of the Tartars. ”

"The younger generation expects that the next step may also be to subdue North Korea and remove the last hidden danger of launching an attack on the Ming Dynasty."

In the end of the Ming Dynasty, North Korea could be regarded as a qualified vassal state most of the time, and even after the death of the Ming Dynasty, it was under the rule of the Qing Dynasty, and still secretly pursued the name and etiquette of the Great Year to pay tribute to the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

If the DPRK does not surrender, then the first flank is easily threatened by the DPRK army, and the combat effectiveness may not be very good, but it is always a hidden danger that cannot be ignored.

This really happened after the rise of the Jurchens at the end of the Ming Dynasty, but unfortunately at that time, the Ming Dynasty was powerless to return to the sky, and the flanks could not change the overall situation.

Listening to Shen Yichen's analysis, Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo, nodded, North Korea is the only vassal on the entire northern border of the Ming Dynasty that has not been controlled by the Tile Spur Department first.

In the tenth year of orthodoxy, the Great Khan of Mongolia took off his own flowers, proclaimed me in the name of Emperor Dayuan, and issued an edict to the king of Joseon, which already showed his wolf ambitions. But at that time, the three guards of the Uliangha had not yet been annexed, and the threat could not be converted into a substantial attack.

Now that the Tile Spur Department has no worries, North Korea will inevitably become the next target!

"I will inform Your Majesty to inform Li Chun, the governor of Liaodong, to strictly defend and establish a joint defense mechanism with North Korea in case it is broken one by one."

Chengguo Gong Zhu Yong quickly thought of countermeasures, but in Shen Yichen's opinion, this was better than nothing.

The reason is that in addition to the establishment of the garrison of the guard station, the other places in Liaodong did not form the substantive control of the county system, and the Nuer Gandu Division established in the early Ming Dynasty also existed in name only.

North Korea, if you want to talk about loyalty, there is indeed a case. But once you don't get the full support of the Ming Dynasty, when you should be the grass on the wall, it will never contain a lake.

Historically, when the Tile Thorn army Chen soldiers on the eastern border of Korea, they immediately chose to submit to submission.

It is not enough to rely on strict defense alone, and it is necessary to provide some practical military support.

"Grandpa, now Li Da, Zhang Qi and others are still competent in the Beijing camp?"

"Not bad, why do you suddenly ask about this?"

"The younger generation has a reluctant request, and I implore my grandfather to transfer Li Da and others to serve in the command of the Liaodong Metropolitan Mission."

Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty was actually a very special administrative body, and it did not set up a political envoy like the other thirteen provinces, but nominally under the jurisdiction of the Shandong political envoy.

But the problem is that the three powers of the local government in the Ming Dynasty were separated, and the three divisions were at the same level and did not govern each other, and the Shandong political envoy had no right to manage the Liaodong capital at all.

In other words, in fact, the Liaodong region is in a state of "military management," and the military and civilian affairs of various localities can be handled by the Liaodong Command and Embassy Divisions with full authority, and ordinary civilian households are the "resident residents" under the jurisdiction of the Command Envoys.

Even though the post of governor of Liaodong was established during the Orthodox Dynasty, a supporting civil official system was not established, let alone the division of administrative regions of prefectures and counties. Relying on a light pole commander to patrol the civilian officials, if you want to have full authority to control the military and political affairs of the local guards, it is impossible to think about it, and the power is still in the hands of the commander of the embassy.

And the commander of Liaodong can be described as a real feudal official!

Li Da and the others have always wanted the Jin Ge Iron Horse to fight on the battlefield, so it is better to take this opportunity to meet their wishes, and they can also control the military and political power in Liaodong as a surprise soldier.

In the future, even if there is no way to prevent the change in Tumubao, Shen Yichen can have the military power of Liaodong to change the direction of the result.

There are no more suitable places in the Ming Dynasty than the Liaodong Dusi.

"Do you want to control the Liaodong Capital Division through Li Da and others?"

Zhu Yong's eyes looked at Shen Yichen sharply, at this moment he seemed to have returned to the orthodox nine-year victory over Wuliang Ha Sanwei, the prince of Chengguo who was extremely popular and had power in the government and the opposition.

Only a year ago, Shen Yichen asked himself to transfer Li Da and others from the Jingwei Command Department to the Beijing camp under the jurisdiction of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies. Now he begged himself to transfer Li Da and the others to Liaodong, and his intention was simply imminent.

Since ancient times, military generals have been able to make meritorious contributions and hold power only in war. Shen Yichen transferred his own people to the past, it was obvious that he had bigger intentions!

Listening to Cheng Guogong's rhetorical question, Shen Yichen nodded and admitted.

As a military general, there may be no one who understands the meaning of military power in hand better than Cheng Guogong. Why did the Xun Qi in the late Ming Dynasty become a mascot, and he had no sense of existence in front of the civil servants who were in charge of the government, and even the status of the military generals dropped sharply as if they were not as good as dogs?

The change of Tumubao was only a help, and the real reason was that after the Orthodox Dynasty, Xun Qi almost no longer led the army in person, and there was no chance to make contributions.

Wu Xun who has no actual power, who will put you in his eyes?

"Okay, I promise you!"

Cheng Guogong Zhu Yong did not have the slightest excuse, on the contrary, he still showed a hint of appreciation in his eyes for Shen Yichen's desire for power and ambition.

After all, in the eyes of the Xunqi group, Shen Yichen has never been a pure civil servant, and taking charge of military affairs with civilian officials is the ultimate destination of his career!

For Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo, if he wants to achieve the ultimate honor of one family and two lords like the Duke of Wei, military merit is an indispensable condition.

Mobei Tartar is the Qingyun Ladder where Shen Yichen worships the prime minister!

"Grandpa Xie."

Shen Yichen arched his hand, and then continued: "If there is nothing important, then the junior will retire first." ”

"Well, you go out."

Even if a de facto tacit understanding has been reached with Shen Yichen's son, the two sides still can't have the closeness between father and son.

"Green Sword Fairy"

"Yes."

Shen Yichen saluted again, then turned around and left the room.

……

Shen Yichen and Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo, laid out the war in Liaodong, and on the other side, in the Wenyuan Pavilion of the Forbidden City, Ma Yuzheng, the "first assistant" of the cabinet, convened several ministers who also held the rank of Hanlin, as well as Qian Xili, the current head of the Hanlin Academy, and Ni Qian, a bachelor of Hanlin Attendant, to discuss the list of officials who had been extended for the 12th year of orthodoxy.

In addition, Wang Zhi, the official of the Ministry of Officials, was also seated, waiting for the final result.

Because according to the regulations, the postponement of the lecture officer needs to be jointly elected by the Ministry of Officials and the Hanlin Academy, and then named Chen Song by the emperor.

However, in practice, the officials of the postponement must leave the Hanlin Academy, and they have little to do with the officials. So in most cases, the official Wang of the Ministry of Heaven is just going through the motions, and then joining his name on Shangshu.

The promotion of the Jingyan lecturer is, in a sense, the promotion of the imperial division, and it is also an admission ticket to enter the cabinet in the future.

Several cabinet ministers, including Ma Yu himself, were promoted step by step in this way, and the significance is not trivial, but it needs to be considered.

However, many high-ranking cabinet officials present this time knew very well in their hearts that the focus of the discussion was not actually what Jingyan lectured at, but Shen Yichen.

Can he quickly get this ticket to the cabinet and serve as the emperor's division as a weak crown year!

Ma Yu is sitting above the chief at the moment, and the orthodox dynasty does not have a clear statement of "first assistant", but the unspoken rule is that whoever presides over the cabinet council is the de facto first assistant of the cabinet.

This person used to be Yang Rong, and later Yang Shiqi took over, and then became Yang Pu.

Today, Ma Yu, the second-generation cabinet team of the Orthodox Dynasty, has finally ascended to the position of "first assistant".

"All of you colleagues are gathered in Wenyuan Pavilion today, so I believe you all know very well what is going on."

"To make a long story short, His Majesty has decreed that Shen Yichen, the former Hanlin Cultivator, will be promoted to the position of Hanlin Scholar, which means that he has the qualifications to become a lecturer of the Scriptures."

"But Shen Shi is young after all, which is contrary to Yang Shiqi and Yang Yuanfu's set back then, and the postponement lecturer must be thorough in his studies, correct in words and deeds, old and thick, and knowledgeable in general."

"Therefore, this time, the promotion of the Hanlin lecturer needs to be carefully considered by your colleagues before making a decision."

In the Ming Dynasty, almost all of the officials were elites, and if they could step into the position of important ministers in the cabinet, there was naturally no need to say much about politics and business.

As soon as Ma Yu's words came out, it was equivalent to telling everyone that he did not support Shen Yichen as the speaker of Jingyan, and now he wanted to see who supported and who opposed!

In addition, these words were even more shocking in the ears of ministers such as Wang Zhi and Qian Xili, who were not selected by the "Three Yangs".

You must know that Ma Yu is the master of Shen Yichen's examination, and the two sides have a protégé agreement.

According to the Ming Dynasty's seat teacher system, Ma Yu and Shen Yichen are actually a community of interests, and the seat teacher will spare no effort to support his protégé to take the position. But now the situation is completely opposite, Ma Yu is blocking Shen Yichen from serving as a lecturer in Jingyan, what is going on behind these two people?

Seeing that everyone was silent, Ma Yu had no choice but to look at the cabinet minister Chen Xun.

Chen Xun entered the Wenyuan Pavilion in the ninth year of orthodoxy to participate in the pre-aircraft service, and he only served as a cabinet minister for more than two years.

This is also one of the reasons why the cabinet collapsed after the "Three Yangs", and the reserve force of civil officials selected by the truth was too young, and their qualifications and prestige collapsed. Not to mention fighting against Wang Zhen, even the battle for the cabinet can't fight the elders of the six departments.

It's like Hu Hu, the fifth minister of Tuogu, if he puts up his qualifications, from Ma Yu to Gao Gu, who has only entered the cabinet for ten years at the latest, all of them are juniors.

In addition, Chen Xun, a cabinet minister, can be said to be one of the cabinet chiefs and assistants with the least sense of existence in the Ming Dynasty.

After the Tumubao Change, he was martyred because of Cao Nai, who was in front of the cabinet at the time of entering the cabinet, and took over as the first assistant of the Ming cabinet. But both Shengyu and He Shengliang, Chen Xun met the most brilliant minister in the history of the Ming Dynasty - Yu Qian.

The entire career of the first assistant was completely overshadowed by Yu Qian's light, and the eight-year tenure of the first assistant of the cabinet almost found no such person.

The most exaggerated thing is that according to the "History of the Ming Dynasty: The Biography of Yu Qian". Zhu Qiyu of the Ming Dynasty wanted to depose Zhu Jianshen, the crown prince of Zhu Qizhen, and set up his son as the crown prince, so he bribed Chen Xun twice in exchange for his support.

The amount of these two bribes was one hundred taels of silver and the other fifty taels of gold.

To put it mildly, this amount of money to bribe the first assistant of the Ming cabinet cannot be called a bribe, but an insult!

If it's Yan Song and other cabinet chiefs in the back, you don't even deserve to fucking enter the door.

It can be seen from this that Chen Xun, the head of the cabinet, is so invisible.

However, there is also a little advantage to not having a sense of existence, that is, compared with a rigid cabinet minister like Cao Nai, it is easier to control.

Ma Yu needs Chen Xun to help him stand on the platform at this moment.

"Ma Yuanfu is far-sighted, and the post of postponement of the lecturer is a big matter, and it really needs to be carefully promoted."

Chen Xun seemed to agree with Ma Yu's suggestion, but in fact, he did a tai chi.

No sense of existence does not mean that there is no ability, in fact, Chen Xun is the champion and the first in the thirteenth year of Yongle, how can he be a general?

Shen Yichen can now be said to have won the heart of the emperor, and the fame of the three yuan and the first, and the six yuan leaders is there, unless it is his own various fancy deaths, it is impossible to stop entering the cabinet, it is nothing more than the time sooner or later.

Blocking people's financial paths is like killing their parents, and the same is true of blocking people's careers.

Chen Xun and Shen Yichen did not have any enmity, he naturally did not want to offend the other party and add an enemy to himself out of thin air.

But as soon as Chen Xun finished speaking, Cao Nai took the initiative to jump out and said: "This cabinet department thinks that Shen Yichen is sleek and frivolous, and he is not suitable to serve as a lecturer in Jingyan. ”

"Think about it, if Shen Yichen serves as the emperor's master, what will happen to Your Majesty?"

In addition to preaching and teaching, the imperial master also served as the transmission of the concept of governing the country to the emperor.

It can be said that a qualified Jingyan lecturer will affect the future direction of the entire Ming Dynasty.

Cao Nai's sleekness, frivolity, etc., all the important ministers present knew in their hearts what he was talking about. After joining the office, he took the initiative to take refuge in Wang Zhen, and even showed the flattering words of "internal minister", which has been shamelessly criticized by the officials and Qingliu until now.

acted arrogantly, because during the period of Shen Yichen's Shandong water control, he abused his power as the imperial history of the capital.

In just over a year, the three provinces and eight prefectures involved the impeachment of the powers of the political department, the salt transfer department, the banknote customs, the royal palace, the capital command and envoy department, etc., which can be piled up with the emperor's imperial eucalyptus.

To tell the truth, if it weren't for the success of water control, if something went wrong, Shen Yichen would not have returned to Beijing after becoming famous, but would have been summoned back to Beijing to ask for guilt!

Now, under the influence of Wang Zhen, the emperor has become more and more arbitrary and aggressive. If you add Shen Yichen's "words and deeds", then in the future, Daming can withstand the toss of these three people?

The Mongol iron cavalry in Mobei was eyeing the tiger, and the rebellion of the Miao people in southern Xinjiang led to the resurgence of Luchuan.

Yang Yuanfu once said that Shen Yichen is a medicine that can cure a big country like cooking a small fresh, Cao Nai thinks that this son is not suitable to serve as an imperial teacher!
