Chapter 223: Recommending Ma Sanbao
A problem that he had been worrying about was solved by Lu Ning in a few words, and Zhu Yuanzhang was very pleased.
Seeing that Lu Ning yawned a little, he said unsatisfactorily.
"Zi'an, don't be busy sleeping, uncle has another question for you, you can't just take care of snooze and ignore everything else, it's too unusual."
Lu Ning hurriedly called his subordinates to renew the tea, but he didn't expect his uncle to come to see him, and it was not his legs but his mouth that was tired, so he made a posture of listening to his ears.
Zhu Yuanzhang asked Lu Ning again.
"Although the coast has been pacified, there must be people stationed there. If there are any more remnants of the Japanese who want to invade the interior, then there must be a reliable person to do it. ”
Lu Ning thought that he was going to talk about how to make a lot of money, but who knew that a shake of his hand was another political issue.
Obviously, people like my uncle are the so-called keyboard warriors in later generations.
"Uncle, is there a little too much salt in the radish in the restaurant today? It seems that Li Qi, this kid, doesn't care about picking places. ”
"No, the chef's skills are very good, and we are very used to eating the dishes here in Changning."
"Then why did you eat radish first and worry about it?"
Zhu Yuanzhang replied immediately.
"Let me tell you a secret, in fact, I am still a staff member of His Majesty the Emperor, as long as you answer well, there is only good and no harm."
Lu Ning was stunned when he heard this.
"But it's useless for you to tell me this, I'm just an earl now, and my position is a seven-rank county order, so I can't believe in the emperor."
Zhu Yuanzhang said directly.
"You can also recommend someone, you don't know, in fact, I, the imperial businessman, is very trusted by the imperial court, as long as I say, maybe Your Majesty will adopt it."
Lu Ning complained again.
"Why do you care more and more about your old man, and you are in charge of politics and the military, aren't you afraid of the suspicion of the court?"
Zhu Yuanzhang still said with a flicker.
"Your Majesty is quite sage, he will only punish crimes based on the facts of crimes, and will never punish crimes by words, as long as you enter into remarks that benefit the country and the people, even if you say something wrong, you will never blame."
I believe that he is the hell, every emperor says so, but if he is a little unhappy, he will be killed immediately.
It's just that my uncle is quite good to me, so I should talk to him a little bit, so I said that I hope my uncle can keep it secret, and what I told you today can't be known to a third person.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought to himself, if you want the third person to know, I won't let you either, so he swore a promise.
Lu Ning had no choice but to say.
"The person I recommended can not only guard the coast of Zhangzhou, but even set sail, and under the condition that the Ming national strength is sufficient, he can lead 10,000 people to destroy Dongying, but this person is a little special, and the court will never agree."
Zhu Yuanzhang understood a little in his heart, and secretly guessed that teachers all want their students to be famous, except for the newcomer Li Qi, Li Jinglong and Xie Jin are all talents, who do you not recommend them to recommend?
But Zhu Yuanzhang has also heard of some of Xie Jin's past events, such as scolding the prime minister of the dynasty at a young age for "wearing red robes when he comes out of the water", which is too frivolous.
So he pondered for a while and said, "That Li Jinglong is also a talent." ”
Who knew that Lu Ning shook his head.
"Whether it is guarding Zhangzhou, setting sail, looking for a new world, or sending troops to Dongying to convince people with morality, what is needed is a handsome talent who coordinates everything, not a general who is ordered to charge into battle, Li Jinglong is more than brave and has insufficient strategy. Not him. ”
"Is that Xie Jin?"
Lu Ning shook his head again and said.
"Xie Jin is a talented person, but he is a little arrogant, and if he wants to reuse it, he must hone it well, not him, let alone Li Qi, who has just been here for a few days."
Hearing him say this, Zhu Yuanzhang's heart was relieved, it seems that I live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, it turns out that Zi'an is a broad-minded person who will never form a party for personal gain.
So he said the names of several generals such as Lan Yu, Lu Zhongheng, and so on, but not surprisingly, they were all denied by Lu Ning.
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang is like Zhang Er King Kong, confused.
"We won't give you a circle, you tell you the truth, who is this person?"
"This person's name is Ma Sanbao, and he is a eunuch who has just been admitted to the mansion by His Royal Highness King Yan."
Hearing Lu Ning say this, Zhu Yuanzhang snapped, slapped the table, and danced in the teapot and tea cup.
"Don't say it, this person is absolutely not good, if you don't want to be beheaded by the court, never mention this in front of outsiders!"
Lu Ning was also stunned: "Why?" ”
"Eunuchs can't give too much power! Don't you know about the rebellion of the Ten Standing Servants in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and the changes in the Ganlu Temple in the late Tang Dynasty? Now that you have handed over such an important power to a eunuch, do you want my Ming Dynasty to repeat the disaster of the fall of the country in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty? ”
This big hat was buttoned down, and Lu Ning couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Uncle, you can't kill a boatload of people with a rod, although there are good officials and bad officials, the same is true for eunuchs, there are good eunuchs and bad eunuchs, not to mention that once a son of heaven and a courtier, Ming Jun is a eunuch who can control his ability, and he can't be killed with such a pole."
Zhu Yuanzhang's face was gloomy, Zi'an always wanted to ask the eunuch to lead the troops, could he have received any benefits from King Yan or the eunuch named Ma Sanbao?
"What benefits did Ma Sanbao give you, are you sure it's not a joke?"
Lu Ning stood up and said.
"Uncle, I'm definitely not joking, but this person has to be. When it comes to navigation and naval warfare, all the people of the Ming Dynasty are inferior to him, of course, if the imperial court has taboos in this regard, I didn't say it. ”
Really, what's wrong with me making a fortune here, I have to talk to you about what these mountains do.
