Chapter 246: Restart Yuan Chonghuan?
Sun Chengzong waved his hand.
His soldiers came to Sun Chengzong.
"Offended."
One of the generals hugged Sun Chengzong and was ready to take him away.
As soon as the soldiers stepped forward, all the children and grandchildren who followed Sun Chengzong became agitated and made a gesture to step forward to stop them.
"Don't move!"
Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly became tense, Sun Chengzong shouted and stopped the actions of the people behind him.
"Since Sun Futai wants to escort me to Beijing, I will follow and see what crime the court wants to punish me."
Sun Chengzong said with a smile, and there was no trace of fear on his face.
"Do you need to put it in the flail?"
"Kaiyang Gong laughed."
Sun Chuanting arranged a team of men to escort Sun Chengzong into Beijing, while he continued to carry out tax reform work.
The capital of Gaoyangli is more than 200 miles, and Sun Chengzong and his entourage walked on the road for a few days before entering the capital.
"You said that Sun Chuanting arrested Sun Chengzong in Beijing?" Zhu Youzhen's eyes widened.
"Long live Hui, I'm already on my way to the capital." Wang Chengen said.
"Sun Chengzong summoned him to the palace after entering the palace."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
For this famous man, he said that he had to see anything.
Two days later, Sun Chengzong came to the capital and was immediately summoned into the palace to meet Zhu Youzhen.
Sun Chengzong sat on Zhu Youzhen's chair and quietly looked at the young emperor in front of him. In just six years since he succeeded to the throne, he has already done many vigorous things. Collect Liaodong, destroy Jiannu, and fight Taiwan. Great achievements are destined to go down in history.
But there was one thing that did disappoint him.
His Majesty did not use him.
At the beginning, His Majesty punished the Wei Party, and he was extremely excited when he got the news! I think my chance to make a comeback is here again, but wait, wait, wait, wait. Not to mention his comeback as an official, although the Wei Party has fallen, few people in Donglin have been reused. He wanted to see who else could clean up the mess in Liaodong besides himself.
But he was disappointed in the results.
The endgame of Liaodong was not only cleaned up, but also almost wiped out the elite of Jiannu in the first battle of his own year, so that Jiannu completely lost the capital to go south. What happened next surprised him even more, the battle of Liaoshen drove Huang Taiji back to Hetuala, and Korea surrendered and recovered Taiwan. In the end, he wiped out all the top and bottom of Jiannu.
Sun Chengzong had to admit that this little emperor was very powerful.
What's even more powerful is that as soon as Jiannu was destroyed, he started a new deal. How can he, who has been in the sea for half his life, not see the pros and cons of the new deal?
"Kaiyang Gong, I've worked hard all the way." Zhu Youzhen saw him Sun Chengzong once, when he was still young. Just glanced at his brother's teacher from afar.
No matter how much controversy people have about him in later generations, at least his martyrdom is worthy of recognition.
His five sons, six grandsons, two nephews, and eight nephews were also killed in battle while defending Gaoyang, and they can be called loyal martyrs. Compared with those who surrendered in Kaesong, it is thousands of times better.
"Your Majesty Xie cares, and the soldiers on the road take good care of the ministers, and they can't say it's hard."
"I heard a report from the people below, saying that it was the Duke of Kaiyang who blocked Sun Chuanting's way and prevented Sun Chuanting from entering the city. Is there such a thing? Zhu Youzhen pondered for a moment and went straight to the point.
"Exactly."
"Kaiyang Gong's move, why? Is it dissatisfaction with my new deal? β
"Back to Your Majesty. Your Majesty's new policy, although it is harmful to the interests of some people, is of great benefit to the people and the country, and should be vigorously promoted. β
In fact, when Sun Chengzong first heard that the emperor was going to implement a new policy, his first reaction was that the emperor was crazy. Although the New Deal does seem to be reliable, can the system of more than 200 years change as it is said? Look at Zhang Juzheng, what happened to his family after he died. But then I thought about it, maybe it could really happen. Why, because the emperor is awesome and tough. Not afraid of killing at all.
"And what are you?" Zhu Youzhen lost the lake.
Since you agree with my new policy, what kind of way do you lead people to block?
"To tell you the truth, when the minister first heard about His Majesty's new policy, he was also a little resistant. But later, after careful study, he found that His Majesty was really far-sighted, as long as the new policy is implemented, over time, the country will inevitably be rich and the people will be strong, and the national strength of the Ming Dynasty will inevitably show an unprecedented grand situation! β
Sun Chengzong's opening was a blow, which made Zhu Youzhen even more confused. But he still listened patiently to Sun Chengzong's words.
The minister knew that it was not easy to promote the new deal, so he took such an opportunity to meet His Majesty. Although the minister is old, he does not hesitate to die, and is willing to do his best for His Majesty. β
Well?
Zhu Youzhen heard and understood, this is to ask for officials.
But the problem is that everyone is doing a good job now, what kind of official is it for him? With his qualifications, it is not suitable to be small, and it is not suitable to be big.
"What does Kaiyang Gong mean?"
"The minister does not need any official position, and voluntarily promotes the new policy for His Majesty!" Sun Chengzong said angrily.
"In this way, I have appointed you as the Commissioner of Tax Reform, and like Sun Chuanting, I will be responsible for the promotion of tax reform." Zhu Youzhen pondered for a while, and planned to give Sun Chengzong the title of individual tax reform commissioner, anyway, this tax reform commissioner is a temporary position, and it doesn't matter if there is more or less. In addition, Sun Chengzong's protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials are all over the world, and it is not a bad thing that he is willing to run around for the promotion of the new deal at this time.
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Dare to do it, there is one more request! β
"But it doesn't hurt to say it."
"For one person, ask Your Majesty for another position."
"Who is it?" Zhu Youzhen frowned without leaving a trace, feeling a little unhappy. How can there be such a thing.
"Chen's student, Yuan Chonghuan!"
I'm Nima.
I also want to ask for officials for Yuandu, and I've been waiting here for a long time!
"Kaiyang Gong, there are no vacancies in various places now." Zhu Youzhen subconsciously wanted to refuse.
This is a troublemaker, isn't it good to stay in his hometown honestly? What kind of official are you going to do? How tired!
"Your Majesty, the minister also needs available manpower to promote the new policy, Yuan Chenghuan is very talented, and he must be a big help to the minister!"
.....
Talent?
Is it bragging or killing people indiscriminately?
But none of these things have happened yet, and there is no damn reason for Yuandu's previous actions.
"The promotion of the New Deal is difficult, and if something goes wrong, it is a capital crime! Does Kaiyang Gong really plan to let Yuan Chonghuan wade into this troubled water? β
Zhu Youzhen decided to scare and scare him.
"I understand. If something goes wrong, the minister will definitely be responsible to the end! Sun Chengzong said firmly.
"Well, how about appointing Yuan Chonghuan as the deputy commissioner of tax reform, led by you?"
"Minister, thank you, Your Majesty!"
"But if something goes wrong with me, I will never tolerate it!"
"The minister understands!"
After Sun Chengzong left, Zhu Youzhen thought something wrong. Sun Chengzong is so old, how could he run for office by himself? Most likely for Yuan Chonghuan.
"Wang Banban, go and find out where Yuan Chonghuan is."
"Yes, hooray."
An hour later, the news came back.
"Your Majesty, according to Jinyiwei's news, Yuan Chonghuan is at Sun Chengzong's residence in Gaoyang County at the moment."
Really.
Yuan Chonghuan, you are really unwilling to be lonely.
"Inform Tian Ergeng and ask him to send someone to stare at Yuan Chonghuan, and if he dares to do anything wrong, arrest him immediately."
Since you want to be an official, I want to see what you're going to do!
Think there's no risk in being an official?
Sun Chengzong is gone, from the white body when he came, to a tax reform commissioner.
It would be impossible to say that there was no trace of pride.
Judging from His Majesty's attitude, he can still be trusted by His Majesty. Thinking of this, Sun Chengzong smiled happily.
A few days later
He returned to his home in Gaoyang County. As soon as I entered the house, I was greeted by a thin man.
"Teacher, you're back!"
It was Yuan Chonghuan who came all the way from Guangzhou.
Sun Chengzong nodded, looked at Yuan Chonghuan with an expectant face, and showed a smile.
"It's done."
"Thank you, teacher!"
Yuan Chonghuan, who was a little apprehensive, couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, and he was overjoyed.
"Teacher, where do you work?"
"I'm the Commissioner for Tax Reform, and you're my deputy."
"Tax Reform Commissioner? Same as Sun Chuanting? β
"Exactly!"
"Okay. All right! Yuan Chonghuan stroked his palms and smiled, Sun Chuanting's majesty really made him envious, and he would be the same as him in the future.
"Freely, I entered Beijing this time to face the saint, and I feel that His Majesty is extremely strict with officials, and you must not take it lightly." The current meaning is that this emperor is not easy to mess with, you have to be careful, don't blame me if you die.
"The students got it." Yuan Chonghuan nodded disappreciably.
His Majesty has not used him all these years, which makes him very anxious.
Originally, he still had the intention of watching jokes, and was ready to invite himself out of the mountain when the emperor had no available people. But seeing the pacification of Liaodong, the destruction of Jiannu, and the collection of Taiwan, even Mongolia was immediately ruined. There is no use for his own talent. Yuan Chonghuan saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart.
Finally, when Zhu Youzhen promulgated the new policy, Yuan Chonghuan decided to try, so he traveled thousands of miles to Gaoyang and found his teacher. I didn't expect it to be!
"Walking on the Stars"
Sun Chengzong looked at Yuan Chonghuan with a happy face, and had some indescribable feelings in his heart.
Is it a good thing?
