Chapter 140: The whole army goes to Seoul for the New Year
Fang Fengshi and Pan Sheng both looked at Zhang Juzheng.
Both of them are Zhang Juzheng's cronies, so naturally Zhang Juzheng is the only one who obeys.
And Zhang Juzheng originally supported the Son of Heaven to use the domineering to secure the state, so he first arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this move is reasonable, and the suzerainty naturally has the right to ask the guilty vassal state, just like the father asks the son, and the stick is mixed to teach it, and it is also hoped that it will be successful." ”
"What a father asks a son!"
"Sir is absolutely right!"
Zhu Yijun nodded with a smile, and then said, "That's it!" Teach the Zibang with sticks! ”
"Obey the order!"
Zhang Juzheng replied at this time.
But then, early the next morning, Zhang Juzheng said to Zhu Yijun in the west room of the Wenhua Hall because of yesterday's discussion of the military plane:
"Your Majesty, now that the Privy Council is in charge of the military airline, it is not very appropriate for the military aircraft to be drafted by the cabinet, and it is easy to leak the military aircraft;"
"Therefore, the minister asks His Majesty to simply set up a separate official office in the imperial palace, and choose the one who has the best words and chapters of Hanlin to be responsible for undertaking orders and drafting decrees in front of the emperor."
"The Holy Decree no longer needs to be drafted by the Cabinet, the Cabinet only votes for non-military policies, and it is sufficient to undertake the Divine Decree and arrange for the implementation of the six ministries."
After hearing this, Zhu Yijun nodded: "Then set up the Imperial Division in the west side of the Qianqing Palace, and the Imperial Division will be responsible for drafting the decree. ”
"The privy envoy is the same as the Imperial Minister, and the Privy Council is in charge of the government;"
"Then appoint a scholar or a scholar to serve as the minister of the imperial secretary, who shall be responsible for the preparation of the decree, and the proposed decree shall be submitted to the gentleman and the privy councillor for approval, and then handed over to the celebrant for approval, and then handed over to the royal secretary by the clerk's office, and sent to the cabinet or the privy council."
"In addition, select a number of Hanlin Jinshi and Wuxun's children to serve the Imperial Division, and observe the political experience and prepare for consultation as Zhongshu Sheren, so that in the future, the civil and martial arts can be succeeded by virtuous ministers and generals, so as to become the emperor."
Zhang Juzheng said yes.
Zhu Yijun did this, which can be regarded as concentrating power on himself, but it did not weaken the power of the first assistant too much, although the first assistant can no longer vote on the affairs of the military aircraft, but he can still participate in the military aircraft as the chief minister of the imperial department, and in the future, when the first assistant wants to reform for the emperor, he can continue to reform, and if the emperor is weak and wants to reform, he can still rely on the first assistant to achieve the reform.
It's just that the first assistant only has the power of the senator, so once the emperor is strong and doesn't listen to the first assistant, he can still make decisions and make decisions.
"There is another political hall in the study room on the west side of the Qianqing Palace, which is equivalent to two official offices and one team, and the political affairs hall is specially used as a place for me to sit and discuss politics with the ministers."
"The ministers have permanent chairs in front of the emperor, while the scholars and scholars stand, and the chief assistant and the privy envoy sit on the left and right of the minister, and they are covered with soft cushions, as a sign of sympathy for the ruling minister."
Zhu Yijun doesn't want to make decisions on government affairs through court discussions.
Because the court meeting is to ask the imperial history and the six branch officials, as well as the officials of various ministries and courts, and even the officials of the Guozi Priest Wine and Dali Temple Zhengqing to attend and decide on government affairs.
As a result, it is easy to leak secrets in decision-making, and it is easy to make it impossible to formulate national policies for a long time, and even because there are too many people in the court, there have always been disagreements, so that many policies cannot be implemented in the end.
Not to mention the rest, and to say that the leak is so fast, many wars against Jin in the late Ming Dynasty had a situation where the imperial court had just agreed on a military plan, and Nurhachi and these people knew the plan, and finally caused the defeat of the battle.
Therefore, Zhu Yijun will no longer make decisions and attribute them to everyone, but set up a political affairs hall, and only allow a few important ministers to agree on policies with the emperor, so as to reduce the possibility of leaking secrets and improve the efficiency of governance.
Zhang Juzheng had no objections, and he also knew the drawbacks of the court discussion, so he continued to say that he obeyed the order.
So far, Zhu Yijun's Wanli Dynasty has carried out a major restructuring of the center.
The appearance of the Imperial Division is conducive to him directly controlling the court situation by controlling a few central ministers in the future.
And in October of the seventh year of Wanli, two months after Zhu Yijun decided to let Li Chengliang blame North Korea and restructure the central organization.
Liaodong, Tieling Wei Qingyang Fort.
At the beginning of the heavy snowfall, the sky was blue and white, and the sun was shining.
Zhang Guozhong, the general banner, was wearing a brand-new indigo cloth armor at this time, carrying a three-eyed gun on his shoulder in his right hand, and a camel full of supplies in his left hand, and walked towards the house where the ordinary guards and soldiers lived in front of him.
At this time, Zhang Guozhong was trembling and squatting on the side of the kang in the house, looking out the window, and shouting at the middle-aged man who grinned at him: "Brother Zhong, take the brothers out to receive food, fat jackets, cotton shoes and ordnance!" ”
The man named Zhong Changdong hurriedly responded after hearing this, and it didn't take long for him to come out with ten ragged men to help Zhang Guozhong unload the fat jacket cotton shoes on the camel, ordnance and food, but when he unloaded it, the snow fell one after another, and after a while, Zhang Guozhong's new cotton shoes were dyed white.
Zhang Guozhong was shaking his feet to go to the snow, and he heard Zhong Laosan say: "Guozhong, I didn't expect that so much grain would be distributed from above now, and the fat jacket is much thicker than in previous years, this Master Li is really good to us!" ”
"It's not Mr. Li's good, it's the emperor's good, don't make a mistake!"
"Be careful that the patrol master hears it, and I want to sue the master again!"
"The chief master will also be unhappy, making people think that he doesn't let the Liaodong military family know about the great tomorrow, if you become an official, if you say this and the chief master hears it, he will let people beat you carefully."
Zhang Guozhong hurriedly reminded.
"Hey! I remember, it was the emperor's kindness. ”
Zhong Changdong answered, and spoke, and then said: "I don't dare to think about being an official, now that I come back, I can live a good life, and exile outside is not a human life." ”
Zhang Guozhong said: "If you didn't run away at that time and stayed in Tielingwei, maybe you would be a chief flag officer like me now, maybe Brother Ling Zhong would be better than me, after all, you taught me to ride a horse." ”
"Who would have thought that the life of the military family would be better!"
Zhong Changdong sighed, and said: "In the past, I was a poor mother-in-law who couldn't marry me, and I didn't have the next meal after eating, and I wanted to kill the Tartars to make meritorious contributions, but I didn't have the strength, and I didn't have a decent knife and saddle, so I thought it would be better to go to Liaoyang to raise horses for big families than to be a military household." ”
"As long as you can get by at that time, let alone whether there is a woman or not, as long as you don't starve, and have the strength to protect the old lady and one acre and three points of land when the tartars come, no one wants to leave this native land."
"Listen to them, not long after the wedding of the Son of Heaven, it is the time when he is young and strong, and the good days in the future will be long, take your time, my brother will still become an official sooner or later."
Zhang Guozhong comforted Zhong Changdong, and said: "However, if you come back three months early, you will be able to catch up with the battle of 40,000 horsemen with Master Li, and you will have already been able to make meritorious contributions; With your ability, you may be able to get a piece of python jade, the Son of Heaven has an edict, and those who get python jade will be treated as a national soldier, and they don't have to kneel down when they see the master of Fuyuan. ”
Zhong Changdong just grinned.
After the uniforms, ordnance and food were unloaded, Zhang Guozhong took out the roster and said: "Let's start receiving their salaries and fat jackets and cotton shoes, take off all the old jackets, and boil them in boiling water, which is required by the above, saying that it is to kill invisible insects." ”
Because the commerce in eastern Liaodong is still underdeveloped, and the distribution of military households is relatively scattered, it is inconvenient for ordinary military households to buy grain by directly distributing silver.
It's just that sometimes the silver will be issued directly, mainly to see if there is a grain merchant to transport grain.
It didn't take long for Zhong Changdong and the others to change into new fat jackets and cotton shoes, and they also got new ordnance, and they seemed to be a lot more regular all of a sudden.
At this time, Ma Shilong, the chief manager, came over with a team of Mongolian girls who were tied to their wrists, and said to Zhang Guozhong:
"This is divided by the general master, let it be distributed to the newly returned military households, and divide it by drawing lots, no matter whether it is beautiful or ugly, who matches whom, it depends on God's arrangement!"
"After it is ready, it will be put into the booklet, and then wait for the spring of next year to receive the newly arrived grain reclamation and sowing."
"Yes!"
Zhang Guozhong replied.
Zhong Changdong couldn't help but smile after hearing this, and began to look at the Mongolian girl who was escorted over.
It's just that these girls are unkempt and vegetable, and some are still holding dirty lambs, so they can't see clearly.
But Zhong Changdong couldn't help but smile and muttered: "In the past, it was the Hu people who robbed our women, but now we robbed them." ”
Dada!
"The master has an order! Half of each castle will be assembled in the capital! ”
At this time, Li Chengliang's family Ding came with a flag carrying snow.
Seeing this, Ma Shilong asked this family loudly: "Li Ruyu (Nurhachi), is there another big war to fight?!" ”
Li Ruyan hurriedly dismounted and knelt in front of Ma Shilong and said: "Back to the chief master, the chief said that he was ordered to gather a large army to ask the North Korea, and the whole army will celebrate the New Year in Seoul this year!" ”
The Ming Liaodong Frontier Army is going to celebrate the New Year in Seoul, I don't know where you are spending the New Year? In any case, Happy New Year to all! I changed the two chapters that I saved overtime last week, and then the author also went to Chinese New Year's Eve, so let me take a half-day vacation.
