With the Taifu Temple Shaoqing Jiang Qian as a signal, Jin Yiwei set off a thunderous action to rectify officials in the three counties of Bazhou, and bullied Ma Hu, Ma Hu needs to be inspected and inspected in the process of raising horses, and many processes such as point inspection, each process needs people, and such a scale of evil elimination action is sudden, it is difficult to kill some people, so in the actual implementation process, there will be some bullies in the village who have been cut down, maybe it is arrogant, or it is a coincidence that there is a dispute with someone at this juncture.

Therefore, in the end, it was reported that there were hundreds of officials involved in the three counties.

Fortunately, in this turbulent period, Zhang Yong led the neat Tengxiang Left Guard's swagger through the market, and even the outlaws became honest.

And many officials are notorious, so Mao Wen is not difficult to investigate, and this operation quickly swept through the three counties of Bazhou in a very short time.

Then the cabinet, the Taifu Temple and the "Ming Pao" all followed in time, and the cabinet and the Taifu Temple worked together to draft the prince's will, and clearly required the other prefectures and counties of Beizhili to restrain their subordinates and not to oppress Ma Hu.

There is a bloody example of Bazhou in front of you, and you have to take care of it for a while.

Although the action planned by the prince failed to fundamentally solve the deep-seated problems caused by the people and herdsmen, the top-down policy pressure also greatly alleviated social contradictions.

Later, the prince issued another decree to transfer the Zhan Shifu Zuozhong Yun Fei Hong to be appointed as the governor of Bazhou.

It was Fei Hong and Jin Gui who took over Yang Tinghe and Zhang Tianrui, after Fei Hong was appointed as Zuo Zhongyun, he was diligent in his work, and he was worthy of his champion background, and he was also smart.

Zhu Houzhao talked to him a few times, and felt that he was calm and clear-headed, so he was also released as an official this time.

Bazhou has just undergone a big change, how to manage it, this is a big challenge for Fei Hong.

As for that Jin Gui,

He talks very little, like a little transparent every day, Zhu Houzhao now has the need for correspondence, so he uses Jin Gui as a secretary.

On this day, Mei Huaigu, the son of Mei Kejia, brought a letter.

In the letter, Mei Kejia introduced the situation of overseas trade, and the 600,000 taels of silver to be released from the capital.

Zhu Houzhao walked around the hall, thinking in his heart, this Mei Kejia still knows how to touch his own mind, knowing that he cares most about sea trade and needs silver the most.

"Liu Jin,"

"The slave is here."

"How much silver do we have?"

So far, the prince has knocked two strokes from Li Guang and Datong, except for 'raiding the house, this method, there is no other way to make money.

And the cost of the school palace is not small, mainly because it has no source of income, and a women's hospital can't make much.

Zhang Chengtian's "Ming Pao" even lost money, and it could not be counted on, because it had a political purpose, and in order to spread it more widely, it was actually sold very cheaply, and it had to be posted to him about 100,000 taels a year.

"The academy is still being built to expand the scale, just the construction cost, Zhang Tianrui has spent nearly one million taels on his side, and it costs another thirty or forty thousand taels a month to maintain those children's rice, salt, etc., the last time Zhang Yong went to Bazhou, people ate and chewed another 300,000 taels of silver, and now we have more than 1.2 million taels of silver left." ….

Zhu Houzhao is settling accounts by himself, and it is impossible not to invest in education, and the money that should be spent still has to be spent. And he has a hunch that, like a horse, will eventually have to be carried by the state treasury.

Because of such a thing as a horse, its demand will be extremely high all of a sudden in wartime, and the country can only provide a part of it in order to ensure its military capability, or it is just a horse put in Nanshan, and the knife and gun are put into storage.

However, for now, this silver is still enough for the academy to consume.

It's been the twelfth year of Hongzhi now, and he has to start accumulating strength, in his memory, the thirteenth year of Hongzhi Datong is a border trouble, but he is not ready to go out to fight,

Although Yang Shangyi said that he wanted to train cavalry, it seemed that he was running out of time now, so in this case, he should not take risks easily and waste the belongings he had saved up with great difficulty.

In particular, some of his political moves were controversial, and military defeats tended to give such a thing

Politicians bring about a rather passive situation, although he is the crown prince and cannot be impeached, but once he takes the risk and leads to defeat, his prestige is greatly damaged.

And except for the thirteenth and fourteenth years of Hongzhi,

There were also large-scale invasions by the Tatars in the seventeenth and eighteenth years.

Historically, these Ming Dynasty were mainly defended, and some people proposed to fight out, such as Wang Yong, the governor of Shaanxi, who once proposed to sweep the Tatars who were stationed in the Hetao area at the beginning of spring, but after Liu Daxia served as the secretary of the military department, he blindly guarded, and the ministers in the court did not support Wang Yong, fearing that it would lead to a greater defeat.

Zhu Houzhao sat down, thought for a while, and began to write, the imperial court's border defense strategy should still be based on prudence in recent years, because of the enemy's rapid and agile superiority and the fact that our side lacks superior forces, so our army should not overemphasize the courage and will to fight, and let the officers and troops fight under unfavorable conditions. However, the generals who came out of the military academy should understand, explore, and experience the fighting style of the Tatars in several actual battles, and the imperial court should also accumulate strength to prepare for the fatal blow at the right time.

He was going to bring these words to those students.

Then again, once a politician has a victory in military operations, he will be invincible.

By comparison, the recent attack is risky and the consequences are serious, and if you are three or four years late, you will have a greater grasp and more profits.

Needless to say, it's hardly a difficult choice to make.

So the most important thing at the moment is to save money,

All the silver that Mei Kejia had shipped to the capital should be sealed and saved up for military use in a few years.

In this process, it is necessary to breed as many horses as possible, especially in the management of the official horse ranch, and if the actual situation is really insufficient, then in the fifteenth and sixteenth years of Hongzhi, it is necessary to expand the scale of the tea and horse trade and purchase horses from the Western Regions in advance.

And the food ......

In fact, although Emperor Hongzhi also had a time when he was in the lake, he was indeed a monarch who governed the country seriously.

In the second year of Hongzhi, the former criminal department Shangshu Bai Ang was ordered to govern the Yellow River.

In the fifth year of Hongzhi, Xu Guan, the former secretary of the Ministry of Industry, was instructed to govern the Susong River in the south of the Yangtze River, which completely solved the silt blockage of the water transportation in the south of the Yangtze River. ….

In the sixth year of Hongzhi, Liu Daxia was ordered to govern the Huai River.

Large-scale water conservancy management brought the annual income of the Hongzhi Dynasty to more than 28 million stones, a figure that was a peak in the middle of the Ming Dynasty. The annual income of the previous emperors was basically between 2,500 and 26 million stones.

Now there is Hangul as the head of the household, Zhu Houzhao also promotes the development of government affairs in the direction of pragmatism, as long as it is pragmatic, Emperor Hongzhi is also reliable, then the national strength will naturally not decline, presumably a few years to save up the next army to go out of the food is still enough.

Of course, when the time comes, hundreds of thousands of people will be in charge of logistics, and there will be no way to do it.

Feudal dynasty, it is impossible to start a war, and the people are not bitter at all. But in any case, the Tatars cannot be allowed to be so arrogant.

In fact, if they are not abolished, the military pressure in the north will be huge, and the border towns will have hundreds of thousands of soldiers, which is a heavy burden.

And in this case, Mei Kejia's side needs to hold on for a few more years,

Zhu Houzhao felt that the affairs of the southeast, instead of doing it before the war, should be done after the war, waiting a few more years to prepare more silver, and once defeated, with the power of a big victory, there is still someone in the southeast who can stop him?

Since ancient times, there has only been a rebellion against farming, and I have never heard of merchants who can make any waves.

And once the sea ban can be opened, and the interests of sea trade can come in from the outside, this bureau will come alive......

court, army, merchants, silver, education......

In two years, progress has been made in all directions, but it will take time to grow in each direction......

Including the court bureau, to be honest, if he is a few years older at this age, or ascends the throne as the emperor, then the degree of control over the court is still different from now.

[To tell the truth, I've been using @

In this way, it is time to 'develop steadily, before, he can't do anything about horses, the war needs, he has to offend some people, and after that, he should focus on stabilizing the court.

By the way, wait for the famous Wang Yangming to see how long it will take to become enlightened and holy.

Zhu Houzhao is planning his general direction in the next few years,

But someone outside came in to tell him, and when he heard it, he knew that it was Zhang Tianrui who asked to see him.

"Declare him in,"

Zhu Houzhao returned to his position,

That Zhang Tianrui's face is much more ruddy now, and he is full of ambition, and he is not as trembling as before.

"Minister Zhang Tianrui, see Your Highness."

"No need to be polite. Let's talk about it."

Pragmatism is a style that sometimes is more useful than issuing a few holy decrees. The so-called good at the top, but very bad at the bottom, the prince likes this kind of person, and the kind of person who wants to get ahead naturally wants to rely on this direction.

"Your Highness, the minister is here to report the good news to Your Highness today."

It seems that he has heard a lot of words when he is the crown prince until now, "Shouldn't you also come to report any auspiciousness to this palace? Zhang Tianrui, you don't want to have itchy skin."

Zhang Tianrui was originally a very timid person, but after getting along for a long time, he knew that as long as he worked honestly, the prince was not the master who wanted to kill people at every turn, so he gradually let go in front of Zhu Houzhao. ….

"Where His Highness says it, if it is auspicious, if His Highness does not talk too much, the minister himself will slap himself." Zhang Tianrui smiled, "It's those questions outside the academy, and someone finally answered them."

"What's the question?" Zhu Houzhao was stunned.

Zhang Tianrui reminded: "It is a very strange question that His Highness thinks about, why it rains, why the sun rises in the east and sets in the west."

"Oh. Look at me, I've forgotten about this stubble due to my busy government affairs lately." Zhu Houzhao patted his head, and then asked happily, "What? What's your question this time?"

"It's the one Your Highness mentioned. Is the earth flat, and if not, why? There is a Hainan man named Guan Guangbi, at the beginning of this year, Yiwei Enke was off the list, because it was a long way back, he stayed in Beijing, and then he has always paid attention to the problems of the academy. This time, he replied no, because when he went out to sea, he always saw the mast first and then the hull when he encountered a ship, which means that the earth is uneven."

Zhu Houzhao slapped his palms, and secretly thought in his heart: I forgot that there is a shadow here!

The ultimate means is to develop science and technology and improve productivity. It's slow, but it's always done. If nothing else, twenty years later, it should be of some use, right?

"Yes, this phenomenon does show that the earth is not flat, and he answered right!"

Zhu Houzhao touched his nose and thought about what to do, in fact, answering the previous question could not do anything, but he wanted to take this person as an opportunity to set off a wave of interest in this kind of question, and then guide people to think about the reasons behind it.

"Zhang Tianrui,"

"The minister is here."

"You are to reward him with silver taels according to the rules we have set at the beginning, and set up another academy in the academy, called Gewu. This academy is not mainly about teaching, but mainly about studying the questions I raised, and if you study well, this palace will still have rewards."

"Yes!"

Zhu Houzhao can't remember other matters for the time being.

Speaking of which, these years are slow-paced, and everything has to be slowed down.

Towards the end of the twelfth year of Hongzhi, the emperor couldn't resist the ministers, and finally came out to govern in person.

Zhu Houzhao is under light pressure here, and he is happy to live a few days of light-heartedness, this kind of chaotic life will make time lose very quickly.

Zhu Houzhao didn't even remember what happened in the thirteenth year of Hongzhi, but something happened in the fourteenth year of Hongzhi that he couldn't forget, that is, at the beginning of the year, Wang Yue, the secretary of the military department, died because of old age......
