Chapter 4 Private Visit to Beijing (Signed, Ask for Recommendation Votes)
After the ministers arrived, after the salute, Zhu Qiyu said to Wang Cheng: "Show the princes a seat." ”
After everyone sat down, Zhu Qiyu picked up a tea cup, took a sip, and said slowly: "Fang Cai Jinyiwei came to report that the people had entered the city in large numbers, fearing that it would lead to civil unrest, what do you think?" ”
The ministers looked at each other, exchanged glances, and one person came out in line: "Your Majesty, now that there is plenty of food in the city, the grain transferred by Yu Shangshu from Tongzhou the day before yesterday has been distributed, and the excess has been properly preserved. ”
Zhu Qiyu nodded, and said, "How is the garrison of the capital now, and where is Yu Shangshu?" ”
One person stood up and said: "Yesterday I have let the armored sergeant out of the city, but the armored sergeant is less than one-tenth, and now the capital is overstretched, and the coordination of the battalions is not easy. ”
Zhu Qiyu said: "I know. Nowadays, the most important thing is whether the defense equipment is sufficient and whether the city walls are reinforced. ”
The other person got up and said, "The equipment has been rushed and is being prepared, and it has been roughly completed. ”
When Zhu Qiyu heard this, he suddenly felt that everything was fine.
He doesn't understand military affairs, but it sounds like the capital now has both food, soldiers, and generals. Besides, the Navarat are a steppe people, and they are good at cavalry raids rather than siege warfare.
Therefore, Zhu Qiyu felt that this was stable.
Take 10,000 steps back, in history, the Ming Dynasty also won this war.
So, Zhu Qiyu said: "Now that the national disaster is at hand, the secretaries are working so hard, and I am very relieved." For today's plan, the secretaries should return to their original offices as soon as possible and be a normal director. Send idle officials to cooperate with the soldiers and horses and the Jinyi guards to try their best to appease the people in the city. If there is a person who knows the soldiers, he can be recommended to be a counselor for military affairs. ”
Hearing this, the minister who spoke first opened his mouth and said: "There is Liu Qing, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, who knows military affairs and military generals. In the case of state affairs, it is advisable to order Jiang Yuan from the Criminal Department to take care of military affairs. ”
Zhu Qiyu didn't expect that someone would really recommend him, and said: "Since this is the case, then Qing will transfer him by himself." I'm tired, let's retreat. ”
After the cabinet ministers left, Zhu Qiyu asked Wang Cheng: "Wang Cheng, I ask you, this cabinet minister is a pillar of my Ming Dynasty, and when he is old, he will be extraordinary when he is young." Do you know any anecdotes about the ministers when they were young? ”
Wang Cheng said: "The slave only knows about Shang Xiu Lianzhong Sanyuan, and the rest doesn't know, Xing Gonggong is afraid that he knows a little more, and the villain will invite him?" ”
Zhu Qiyu nodded, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he leaned back on the dragon chair for a while.
After a while, he felt that someone had entered the hall, Zhu Qiyu opened his eyes and looked forward, it was the old eunuch who had just been introduced to command Bi Wang.
Zhu Qiyu said: "Xing Companion, do you think it's good to let Yu Shangshu enter the pavilion?" ”
Xing'an said: "This, the minister doesn't know, the minister thinks that His Majesty should discuss it with the elders of the pavilion." Moreover, it is always inappropriate for Yu Shangshu to enter the cabinet and be at the bottom. ”
Zhu Qiyu suddenly realized: "Do you know the anecdotes of the ministers?" ”
Xing'an said: "The minister probably knows a little.
"Shoufu Chen Shangshu lost his parents when he was young, and he was the first champion of Shuntian Mansion. Originally, Chen Shangshu Yongle's thirteen-year examination should have been Huiyuan, but when the examiner Liang Shiyu was a fellow villager of Chen Shangshu, and finally took Hong Ying, Chen Shangshu failed to win the three-yuan connection.
"There is no anecdote about the second assistant Miao Shilang. He was loyal and pragmatic, and his official reputation was very good.
"When Gao Shangshu was a layman copying Buddhist scriptures, whenever it rained, he would take off his boots and roll up his pants, and return to the official residence with his clothes and bare feet.
"As for Peng and Shang's revision, these two newcomers to the cabinet are young and promising, and they are both champions, but the ministers don't know what anecdotes."
After listening to this, Zhu Qiyu said slowly: "It seems that he is really a hero and a young man, and I can be regarded as a long-term insight today." I want to go out of the palace to see if there are such talents outside the palace, and quickly bring me a set of inconspicuous clothes. ”
Xing'an said: "This ...... I'm afraid it's not good. ”
Zhu Qiyu said: "It's okay, I'll come back when I go out to see." ”
After much hesitation, Xing'an went out anyway.
Zhu Qiyu only regrets it now, and the reason why he asked the cabinet ministers anecdotes was that he wanted to match people's names with people, so as to hide the fact that he didn't know anything. However, after some explanation by Xing'an, he still didn't know who was who.
It seems that you can only watch the twists and turns.
As soon as Zhu Qiyu thought of the legendary mountain-like twists and turns, his heart beat the drum.
Fortunately, Xing'an came back soon after, followed by Wang Cheng, who held a set of clothes in his hand.
The two helped Zhu Qiyu get dressed, otherwise Zhu Qiyu didn't even know how to wear this clothes.
After changing his clothes, Zhu Qiyu became less prominent, and the black-brown fabric covered his noble atmosphere for a long time.
Wearing this dress, Zhu Qiyu felt much more natural. After all, he was a small person in his previous life, and he was not very suitable for this glamorous and glamorous.
When he went out of the temple gate, he saw a group of lieutenants standing in high spirits at the door.
Zhu Qiyu looked at Xing'an and Wang Cheng in surprise and asked, "What does this mean?" ”
Xing'an said: "Long live out of the palace, how can you not pay attention to precautions? Now that the thieves are coming to the city, the people of Shuntianfu are panicking, and the chaotic people are entering the city. ”
Zhu Qiyu asked: "Then this team of captains are all wearing armor, as soon as they go out, won't our whereabouts be exposed?" ”
Xing'an said: "That's it, we can deter those small people, and it is also a guarantee that everything will happen." ”
Zhu Qiyu was a little speechless: "The three of us go out, who will pay attention to us?" Shengdou Xiaomin, who has to run for a livelihood every day, how can they have time to care about others? Besides, how do they know us? If we take so many people out, although it is safe, but now the situation is urgent, we always say that there are no soldiers available, so many lieutenants go out at once, how can we explain to the people? ”
Xing'an still persuaded: "When the time comes, let Shuntianfu post a notice, saying that it is enough to patrol the safety of the city and prevent spies from making trouble." Hooray, you can't have an accident! ”
Zhu Qiyu said: "But with so many people, it's really inconvenient, or let them change their clothes and follow in the crowd." ”
"Long live it has to be like this, and there is no way for the minister." Xing'an was silent for a few seconds, said to Zhu Qiyu, and after speaking, he turned his head to the leading captain and said: "Long live the lord, let you change your clothes and follow in secret, can you guarantee that Your Majesty is safe?" ”
The leading lieutenant said: "Father-in-law Xing, you can rest assured, our captains are all first-class masters in the forbidden army, and even Jingying is not necessarily our opponent." ”
Zhu Qiyu was greatly surprised, and said with confidence: "All the soldiers have worked hard, go and change your clothes, I am waiting here." ”
The leading lieutenant said excitedly: "The minister will live up to His Majesty's trust!" ”
