Chapter 61: Decree (1)
"Zhang Zhongyun, Your Highness, please come over."
Outside the East Palace, Liu Jin said to Zhang Tianrui, who already wanted to retreat.
"Your Highness...... Your Highness wants to see me? ”
"Look at what you said, I dare to spread His Highness's will? Let's ask Mr. Zhang to come over quickly. ”
Zhu Houzhao got a lot of silver,
He is a prince, not a person who lives at home, wealth does not mean much to him, the use of this money is to be able to use it.
In fact, there are good and bad things about the state controlling wealth, and the advantage is that the country's financial situation is relatively good and it can do something.
The downside is ...... In the event of a more mediocre monarch, this wealth will flow into the pockets of private individuals.
Just like the above-mentioned reform of the Kaizhong Salt Law led by Ye Qi, the head of the household department: the previous merchants transported grain to the border to obtain salt quotations were changed to merchants directly paying silver to the imperial court to obtain salt quotations. When the court had the silver, it allocated grain and wages to the border gates.
There are many harms associated with this.
And there is also a good thing about it - the country's income has increased a lot in a short period of time.
It stands to reason that after getting this money, you should be able to do something reliable, right?
In fact, according to later historical experience, this advantage is gone. Because the money was diverted for other purposes, it was quickly consumed.
Therefore, this Ming Dynasty is a patient full of diseases, and sometimes when I think about it, my head is big, and I don't know where to start.
But no matter what, Zhu Houzhao also wants to gather wealth and do more things in his hands.
The matter of the school palace that I was worried about before can no longer be delayed.
"Minister Zhang Tianrui, knock to see His Highness."
"Flat, get closer, what are you doing so far away from me?" Zhu Houzhao beckoned.
"Oh." Zhang Tianrui lifted the corner of his clothes and took a few steps forward, "Your Highness, I don't know what to call Weichen to come over?" ”
"Previously, I have finished reading your discussion about the Academy Palace."
Zhang Tianrui was a little surprised, after so many days, he thought it was a stone sinking into the sea, but he didn't expect His Highness to really have to finish reading it.
"But I don't know how His Highness thinks it is a minister, how is it written?"
"It's kind of a bit of a rule." Zhu Houzhao is not ready to scare him anymore, in case he scares him again, "Mr. Zhang." ”
"The minister is here."
"If the palace asks you to be in charge of preparing for the construction of the medical palace, are you willing?"
Zhang Tianrui's heart was stirring,
In his mind, he couldn't help but think of what Yang Tinghe said to him when he left!
His Highness is waiting, waiting for someone to do this for him!
Once done well...... won the favor of His Royal Highness, and in the future, he will be the old man used by the prince of the East Palace.
At that time, a small Zhongyun official was not his end.
"Back to Your Highness! Willing to do so! ”
Zhang Tianrui knelt down again.
Seeing his expression, Zhu Houzhao also showed a slight smile, and joked, "This matter costs money, you can't take my ten taels of silver to do five taels, and the remaining five taels go into your pocket." ”
Zhang Tianrui's body tightened when he heard this, "Weichen will never dare to do this!" …… Your Highness, the minister is timid, and he takes the extra silver home, and it is estimated that he can't sleep every day. ”
Therefore, half a lifetime of hard work, no achievements, no things, and no integration into this circle.
"Okay." The prince paused for a moment and thought for a moment, "After a year." After the beginning of the spring, you officially built this medical palace for the main palace. During this period of time, you first choose a suitable location in the capital, and also find a few old craftsmen, and think about how to build this place to teach people to learn medicine. ”
"Obey."
Now there is no real estate development in the Ming Dynasty, and there are not so many departments to go through the procedures to build a building. So it shouldn't be that hard.
Zhang Tianrui has been thinking about this for a few days, and at this time, some key points blurted out and asked, "Your Highness, but I don't know how big this medical palace will be built, and how many students will it recruit?" ”
"Build bigger. Let's start with the size of 3,000 students. ”
"Three thousand?!" Zhang Tianrui was shocked, "To build such a big one?" In this case, the minister thinks that the cost is not small. ”
How did he know that what Zhu Houzhao was thinking about was not medicine at all?
In the future, you have to stuff any major into it, of course, you can be big.
"Then we will build in stages, and the first phase will be controlled with a scale of 500 people, and the place will be given to the main palace first. You don't have to worry about the silver, you have your own palace to solve it. ”
At his current age, it is neither too early nor too late to lay out education.
In this place, the level of productive forces in ancient times was no matter how powerful he was in scheming, no matter how accurate he grasped the people's hearts, and the overall national strength of the country was like that.
Anyway, there is so much grain in one acre of land, and a person can do such a little work, and a horse can run so far in a day. If the people who govern the country are more reliable, then the distribution will be better, and the unreliable ones will be distributed blindly with their eyes closed.
Therefore, the method of reform, playing with power and scheming, and fighting those with vested interests should be adopted.
It is also necessary to plan ways to improve productivity, which is a fundamental solution.
Once a hurdle has been overcome, many major problems have been solved, such as the Tatar problem in the north.
Although the nine sides are well guarded, how much does the imperial court spend in order to maintain the nine sides?
In fact, there is a simple and crude way to really solve the problem - a powerful and stable thermal weapon.
In the era of cold weapons, the force of those nomads was indeed strong. But once there is a machine gun, those rugged men will soon change from majestic and burly to good at singing and dancing.
Therefore, although Zhang Tianrui is an inconspicuous petty official, he may not have thought that the envoy handed over to him by the prince is actually very important.
Qianqing Palace.
Emperor Hongzhi looked at the holy decree that had already approved the red and smiled,
This decree was sent to Wang Yue, telling him to leave for the capital as soon as possible to prepare for his post.
"In this way, the northwest can be determined. I was relieved. ”
Lately, he has been able to do the same or both things according to his heart, which makes him much happier. Sometimes it's the same as playing a game, it's fun to win all the time, it's naturally boring to be ravaged all the time, and in the end you just lie down, what do you like?
"What about the Prince? Haven't come here yet? The emperor turned his face and asked the eunuch beside him,
Xiao Jing replied with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry. According to the previous time, in half an hour, His Highness will come. ”
"Got it. Choose someone to proclaim this will, and remember to be wise. ”
"The slave understands."
Xiao Jing's current messenger is much better, after all, the emperor is happy.
His mouth also seemed to be more lively than before, "The slave maid remembers that in the ninth year of Hongzhi, Wang Yue was still unsettled, and now that His Majesty has given him such a great favor, he doesn't know how excited he will be." Therefore, no matter how powerful this general is, he has to meet Mingjun. ”
Speaking of which, Hongzhi is also proud, Wang Yue is arrogant, but the more arrogant the person, the more he will rebound from the bottom, the greater the strength of the rebound. So this kind of person is going to be beaten. I think it is just right to call him back to Beijing this time, and he will definitely be able to serve the country with all his heart.
"I think that he is already seventy-two years old, even if there are some flaws, how many more years can he 'scourge'?"
In fact, if a general who can fight does not rebel, most of the shortcomings can be ignored by the emperor.
"Life is rare in the world, and happiness is rare, and this time I have fulfilled him!"
It has been fifteen years since the majestic Wei Ningbo was removed from the title in the nineteenth year of Chenghua, and he has continued to soothe his grievances in the past fifteen years, but he has never regained the majesty of the year. There were a few iterations in between, but each time it fell short.
Now, finally, it's going to be different.
