In March of the twelfth year of Zhengde, Beijing is already a warm spring season, the suburbs of Beijing are full of greenery, the grass grows and the warbler flies, and a spring rain falls, which shows the softness and wetness of the spring year.

Since the establishment of the Beijing Planning Division, the construction of various buildings and halls, such as official residences, commercial residences, and college sites, has become orderly in Beijing.

As long as he is absent for a few years, when he returns again, he will feel a sense of grandeur of a big city, and he really wants to sigh that it is worthy of being a prosperous place in the world.

From the perspective of safety, it is obviously inappropriate to throw the people outside the city, so the construction of this section of the city wall was finally completed by Emperor Jiajing in the original history of the Zhengde Dynasty.

In this way, the Jingshi city wall with the shape of "mouth" was changed to the shape of "convex".

At the same time, after the imperial court did something reliable, the lives of the common people were richer than before, so the Beijing division was generally lively and noisy.

On the streets, peddlers and pawns come and go, the sedan chairs of the Gaomen family are also full of flowers, and there are even some people with deep eyes and high noses, and occasionally you will see Dongying merchant travelers wearing clogs.

This is already a normal sight.

Wang Shouren returned to Beijing in such an atmosphere, although the Son of Heaven wanted to catch up to meet him, but it was too late.

It can only be greeted by the eldest son of the emperor with Wang Wei.

This is also a great victory, and all kinds of celebrations are inevitable, but this is a happy event, and the cabinet is also happy when it is busy.

Especially with the rebellion of King Pingding, it can be regarded as a double happiness.

It's busy.

It happened that Wang Shouren's father Wang Hua was still a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, so for the upcoming reward, Wang Hua was not polite to his son, he called Wang Shouren to the study, and said: "Since the time of the first emperor, our family has been favored by the country...... Quite trusted, all the merits you have made, often rewarded continuously, even for the father for the Ministry of Rites, but also contains a reward for you. ”

Wang Shouren is a generalissimo who leads tens of thousands of troops outside, and when he arrives at home, he has to put on a serious and honest attitude in front of his old father, "Father is serious. You are the champion and the first, the old man of the Qiandi, and you can have the emperor's grace today, and it has nothing to do with your son. ”

"It doesn't matter, blue is better than blue, this is also a great joy in life, you and I don't have to be so polite between father and son, just tell a few words of truth for my father. However, the gentleman's Ze was beheaded in the fifth generation, and the great changes in Jiangnan can be seen. Back then, my father obstructed the emperor and rewarded Zhou Shangwen generously, you are my son, so the words 'not arrogant' have to be told to you. ”

Wang Shouren bowed, "Father rest assured, the child has never thought of being pampered and arrogant." On the contrary...... The more important the emperor is, the more he feels panicked, and he is deeply afraid of losing the emperor's favor. ”

"Yes, you can't live up to the emperor's grace. In the cabinet, there is already a discussion on whether to knight you, and in my father's opinion, you should still resign. ”

He can't stop the rewards of other generals, but when it's his son's turn, he doesn't have any attitude at all, this is not the way of a gentleman.

Wang Shouren actually understands that sometimes he doesn't know that the emperor is always 'good' to him, and he has said in his letters, Aiqing, you have to take good care of your health.

"It's all up to my father."

Wang Hua chuckled, "Nonsense, how can I call the shots, of course the emperor is in charge." Emperor...... I think I'm about to get to Jingshi......"

In the twelfth year of Zhengde, it is necessary to sort out the national politics.

Zhu Houzhao has been thinking about these things on the way back to Beijing.

In terms of agriculture, he has to focus on officials at all levels this year, and the Jiangnan Rebellion has lost millions of stone of grain, and he doesn't feel anything now, but if there is another accident, it will inevitably make people nervous.

In terms of business, he mainly took Gu Renyi, the commander of the Shaofu and Xing Guan of the Ministry of Industry, as the starting point, and wanted to produce a batch of cotton textiles to be shipped to sea this year, and the specific quantity will of course be seen later.

In terms of armaments, Xinjiang must continue to allocate silver taels and expand its military strength, especially the Yarkand Khanate has to be defended.

When Emperor Qianlong was carrying out the Qingzhun War, Ili was defeated in the first year, and as a result, the other generals rebelled, so that the two Pingzhun generals were first defeated and then defeated, until they were besieged and died.

It is unforgivable that the Yarkand Khanate still disobeyed the jurisdiction of the Celestial Empire and took in a number of fallen nobles of the Turpan Khanate.

The struggle in Central Asia is also a topic.

Outward expansion, in particular, is contrary to the agrarian culture, and although every effort has been made to strengthen commercial ties in order to make these expansions profitable, economic benefits alone are not enough, and a change in mindset is equally important.

In this world, the law of the jungle eats the strong, and this truth is also what he will do his best to spread in the next career as a king.

Then there is the continued promotion of the development of science and technology, which is consistent, not specifically mentioned this year.

In this way, Zhu Houzhao does have a lot of things.

On March 26, the Son of Heaven arrived outside the city.

When camping at night, the emperor ordered the starry night to enter the palace to reduce the disturbance to the people in the city.

At the same time, the cabinet, the six ministries, and the princes, marquis, and uncles in Beijing were ordered to wait in the palace.

The Son of Heaven carries the power of great victory, and the king is over the civil and military officials, and there is nothing to disobey.

The next day, outside the Fengtian Palace, the emperor held a grand court meeting.

The Son of Heaven sat in front of him, and when he went up and down the railing of the white marble, he was full of ministers.

Above the sky, the blue sky and white clouds, and the warm sunshine also added to this grand event.

"Ning rebelled against the rebellion, Yue Guogong was pacified in only 35 days, when the greatest hero of this battle, Jiangnan Qingtian Ling was in full swing, and he thought that he would be able to sort out the relationship between people and land in less than half a year. In the northern desert, Wang Shouren led the Shuofang Xiong soldiers, pursued thousands of miles, defeated Wara, and also greatly promoted the prestige of the Ming Dynasty, with outstanding meritorious achievements. Ping Haibo and Yan Song returned from Japan and won three million taels of silver, which can make my northwest troops worry-free!

In the twelfth year of my reign, I dreamed of sleeping at night, and did not dare to indulge a little, but I was afraid that I would be entrusted by the first emperor, and now the only Yarkand in the four seas is still rebellious, and the hinterland of the Central Plains is peaceful. This is my merit and your merit. I have decided to hold a banquet in the palace on April 1st, and everyone will be rewarded to celebrate this prosperous elephant together!

Again, there is an old saying that when the water is full, it overflows, and when the moon is full, it loses; Complacency leads to defeat, and self-restraint leads to foolishness. There is no constant strength in the country, no constant weakness, and the emphasis is on the monarch to always introspect. Moreover, the road of governing the country is endless, Zhengde has been twelve years, and I hope that the ministers will be diligent and loyal to the country, otherwise, it will be too late to regret it! ”

Zhu Houzhao originally thought about whether to change the era name, so that there would be a signature feeling of layering before and after.

But then I thought about it, it was not a good job for the emperor with two years in the Ming Dynasty, so let's rush to join in the excitement.

Just shout Zhengde, Zhengde.

The great joy of the Son of Heaven is indispensable to the reward of meritorious personnel.

Jinghai Bowu Wending, once again won the false name of Shaobao.

Yan Song made meritorious contributions to the sea, and asked Zhu Houzhao to add the original title of squire of the military department to the title of secretary of the military department.

And to say that the time of great joy in Beijing coincides with the birthday of Wang Wei, the head of the cabinet of the dynasty, for a time it is really full of lanterns and lively.

Wang Wei's birthday is April 14.

The old man was originally a low-key person, but when he entered the palace, the emperor took the initiative to mention it, saying that he would personally congratulate him on his birthday.

If you want to say it, it may be that Zhu Houzhao is in a good mood and mentions it like this.

But if there is something good at the top, it will be very bad at the bottom.

The emperor is celebrating his birthday, so can the others be missing? So all the cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods came out, and they must go to the palace to handle this big thing for Lord Shou.

Zhu Houzhao took advantage of the excitement outside, and announced Wang Shouren into the palace every once in a while.

Pulling someone to accompany him to swim in the lake and enjoy the flowers, and after that, he had to persuade him to accept the title of Xinjian Earl, after all, this guy has refused twice in a row, and if he refuses, the emperor will also have a face, and he can't force it.

So he could only make it clear to him, and said: "The matter of Hetao is over, I won't call Aiqing anymore, you are close to the year of destiny, and I can't bear to let you blow the wind and eat sand again." Besides, in the previous wars, there are many rising generals, and you have to give way to Xian, so that others can make more contributions. As for you, I still want to give you a treasure land, where there will be no military achievements. ”

Wang Shouren understood as soon as he heard it, and he completely understood the emperor's heart, so he replied: "The emperor treats his ministers very well, which is a blessing that the ministers have cultivated for several generations." The minister is not an ungrateful villain, so every day he thinks is to repay the emperor's kindness. As for the earl, Jiuqing, how could the emperor treat his ministers badly? Ministers don't take this to heart every day. Since the emperor has done something, even if he orders, the ministers will not have the slightest complaint. ”

Zhu Houzhao was still thinking, "But you have made a meritorious expedition, and I have sealed Zhou Shangwen, but not you, isn't it unfair?" ”

"The Duke of Yue has won many battles, and he has even conquered the Turpan Khanate, and the credit of opening up the territory is not comparable to that of Weichen."

"It must be your dad who said something." Zhu Houzhao muttered.

Wang Shouren didn't know how to say it, he felt that the emperor was very smart, but he deliberately put away his majesty in front of him. But he is a wise man, how can he forget the majesty of the Son of Heaven?

"Wang Bo'an, although what you said is reasonable, but this new Bo Zhen still has to be sealed, and he will be fair for a while, and secondly, I will also entrust you with some power to command the army, so that you can be fully responsible for the suppression of bandits in Jiangxi and other places, this is the overall situation, you have to take care of it."

Forehead...... Wang Shouren was a little speechless at this time, but he was moved, "The emperor is so gracious, I don't know how to repay the emperor." ”

Zhu Houzhao patted him on the shoulder, "If you go to Jiangnan Zhengyi Zhengyi style and Zhengyi Zhengzi's heart, it will be a great contribution to me." As for Jiangnan's civil affairs, I also entrust it to you, Jiangnan has indeed suffered a disaster this time, and you have to rejuvenate it in the shortest possible time. ”

"Yes! If the minister can't fulfill the emperor's trust, it will be difficult to atone for his sins. ”

What he said was a bit harsh, but in fact it was just a normal appointment.

Zhu Houzhao helped him up, moved a little emotionally, and said, "I want to keep you by my side so that we can see each other from time to time." However, Jiangnan is a little twilight at this time, and he needs a talent like you, and like you, I have to endure the pain of love for the sake of the overall situation. Jiangnan is rich, at most three years, the people will be able to live a well-off life, so it should not be difficult to civilize. However, Cang Liao really knows the etiquette, I look forward to you after you go, to focus on promoting the development of literary style, art and science there, this is very complicated, if there is any hesitation, you can play at any time, let's discuss it in detail in the book, how about it? ”

Wang Shouren naturally said yes.

So the matter was settled.

And Zhu Houzhao was waiting for the future to one day, someone reported to him that Wang Shouren was happily learning the style of control in Jiangnan.

The influence of psychology in the history of philosophy is very great, even more than let him win one or two wars, Wang Shouren is forty-eight years old, Zhu Houzhao knows that he has lived for more than fifty, so in the last few years, he has to be given the opportunity to fully show his value.
