Chapter 46: The Ming Academy of Sciences
Zhang Ping smiled, "Uncle, you just have to do this, you are the emperor's old watch, what about me?" is also half of the emperor's nephew, isn't the relationship between the two of us obvious here? Don't hide it from my cousin, today outside Chaoyangmen, I directly named a few of them and ordered them to be listed, and within two hours, they were promoted, do you think they don't know that I recommended them to the emperor? Therefore, they will definitely become your right-hand man in the future, the big plate He Zhen will assist you, Jiang Yingkui of the 5,000 battalion will take it with you, Xu Wenchang of the Shenji Battalion will take care of it for you, and He Zhen will recommend you another person and you will promote him directly, he is not grateful to Dade for helping you manage the 3,000 battalions, aren't the problems you are facing solved? When Gong Yonggu takes office, the two of you will work together, then the three armies of Gyeonggi will be firmly in your hands, won't you be able to give the emperor a big deal? β
"In addition, that second brother Yang was not a big official before, just a small picker, but now he has suddenly become a guerrilla general, isn't it the same gratitude to Dade? If you ask him to follow you, he must listen to you, what do you tell him to do? What is he doing, I want to come to this Second Brother Yang was originally a Feng, and he didn't come up through the back door, there should be two shots, if anyone doesn't listen to you, just ask Second Brother Yang to press people to the ground and beat thirty military sticks first, I think who dares not to listen to you? β
"Here, Li Banghua will definitely find out the cases of Zhu Chunchen and Li Guozhen very quickly, who is available and who is not? Don't you know? As soon as the additional recruits and the people transferred from other units arrive, you can start a large-scale training of your hands and feet, so that the three armies of Gyeonggi will not just be there? β
Liu Wenbing laughed, "Virtuous nephew! You are really clever, uncle listens to you. β
Zhang Guoji is so excited, my mother! This grandson of mine is really amazing, he can't even think of it, "Hou Ye Liu, you can do it!" When will you get the three armies of Gyeonggi almost done, I, Zhang Guoji, will also take a look, happy, happy! β
"Good! Welcome to Zhang Houye to come and guide, Cixuan, things are urgent, uncle will leave first, I will say to you, one day I will set up wine, you go to recognize the family. β
"Okay, I'll go, I'm going to drink."
The three of them stood by the outer wall of Wenyuan Pavilion and talked, attracting many people passing by to watch, but they are relatives, and it is normal to talk, but they are all strange, why are these three people so happy? Just think about it, who is happy if people are unhappy? Liu Wenbing, Marquis Liu is now the governor of the three armies of Gyeonggi, Zhang Guoji is a lot more important than Zhou Kui, Zhou Kui is just an earl, Zhang Guoji is a marquis, and the righteous son of the queen mother is even more bullish, you see how kind the emperor is in the court.
Liu Wenbing left, Zhang Ping didn't dare to say anything more to Zhang Guoji, now, I don't know what the godmother and this old gentleman are talking about, but you must not say two forks, "Grandpa, the emperor is waiting for the child in the Qianqing Palace!" I have to hurry to the Qianqing Palace, and the next day, the Queen Mother and I will go to kowtow to grandpa and grandma. β
Zhang Guoji didn't think about anything else, "Okay! Good! Go get busy, it's time for me to go home. β
In addition to Zhang Pingzhen's Qianqing Palace, at this time, Zhu Youzhen was receiving Li Ruoqi, Li Ruoqi was promoted to the commander of Jinyiwei, and suddenly became the first person in Jinyiwei, so he naturally wanted to enter the palace to thank the emperor for his reuse, and he also had to listen to the emperor's requirements for Jinyiwei in person.
Li Ruoqi said goodbye, and Zhu Youzhen asked with a smile: "Scattered Dynasty, where did you go?" β
Zhang Ping smiled and told him about meeting Liu Wenbing, and Zhu Youzhen laughed.
"You've got a lot of ideas! In this way, the three armies of Gyeonggi are really relieved, shouldn't we do that thing? β
Zhang Ping knew what was going on, "Your Majesty, the minister will write to Wang Daliang tonight, and the emperor will also write a holy decree to Zhou Yuji, and the prince and the prince will be able to set off tomorrow. β
Zhu Youzhen nodded, "That's it!" Tomorrow, Wang Guoxing will set off, and when Ma Dai enters Beijing, he will immediately be transported by the Datong Canal. β
"That's right, Your Majesty, this is the top priority."
"What do you think about the case of Zhu Chunchen and Li Guozhen?"
"Your Majesty, the case of Zhu Chunchen and Li Guozhen, the key is to investigate and punish who is involved, and none of these black sheep can be let go, otherwise there will be people who will do things that harm the country in the future."
"You're right!"
Zhang Ping thought to himself that it must be good, you have to know that you are going to get rich again, and you don't have to raise so much waste in the future, how much money should be saved, "The minister thinks that Wang Chengen still has to contribute." β
Zhu Youzhen was a little stunned, "What can Wang Chengen do?" β
Zhang Ping smiled, "Your Majesty, hasn't this Dongchang minister not picked it up yet?" Now it is still under the control of Wang Chengen, and the emperor ordered Wang Chengen to mobilize all the fans, supervise all the nobles, and see who is making small moves in private. β
Zhu Youzhen instantly understood, "Not bad! This measure is very necessary. β
"Your Majesty, the cabinet is ready today, you must be very satisfied."
Zhu Youzhen smiled, "Of course." β
Zhang Ping said: "Actually, there is one more person who can be reused. β
Zhu Youzhen was stunned, "Why didn't you say it in the court?" β
"Hey, hey! Your Majesty, this person is a bit special. β
"Who?"
"Jiang Dejing."
Speaking of Jiang Dejing, Zhu Youzhen's face showed helplessness, "I know that Jiang Dejing is a usable person, but Jiang Dejing wants to leave, how can I stay?" β
Zhang Ping said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it's not what you think, this Jiang Dejing, it's indeed a talent, the reason why he resolutely resigned and quit is mainly because he feels that it is difficult to do anything, now, the emperor, you have great ambitions, punish traitors, promote virtuous people, and have so much silver, the minister thinks that Jiang Dejing can't not know at all, this person is very knowledgeable, and there are many protΓ©gΓ©s, someone must tell Jiang Dejing what happened in the court in the past two days, what do you say Jiang Dejing will do?" β
"How?" , Zhu Youzhen looked at Zhang Ping
"I definitely want to stay, but I just resolutely resigned and quit, it seems that I want to do it again, and I can't wipe my face."
"Oh, you're right, I really don't want to let go of a talent, what should I do?"
"Hey, hey! Your Majesty, if you invite him to the palace to drink tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, just say see him off, and you just wait for him to kneel down and kowtow to review himself. β
Zhu Youzhen laughed when he heard it, "Not bad! This is a good idea, let him come to the palace to drink, I want him to kowtow and ask for sin. A minister, you can't just pick a child because you feel bad, you have to learn from Li Banghua, you see this old man, he is a big age, isn't he sticking to it? I told you that I was very moved today, and Li Banghua actually wanted to buy me a few more years of life, and I was really moved to go home lying in a coffin when I died. β
"Hey, hey! With such a wise emperor, Jiang Dejing will also lie in the coffin and go home in the future. β
Zhu Youzhen was a little unhappy, special! Are you saying that I didn't do well before, and I couldn't even keep a virtuous minister?
"Let him enter the Pavilion?"
"That can't! Although Jiang Dejing has only been the first assistant for less than a month, he is also the first assistant, Yi is in the cabinet, behind Ni Yuanlu, will he soon become the fifth old? You still have to take care of your face. β
"What did he do?"
"Hey, hey! The emperor and the minister suggested the establishment of a new department, called the Daming Academy of Sciences, and asked Jiang Dejing to be the president of the Academy of Sciences. β
"Daming Academy of Sciences? What's that errand? β
"Your Majesty, look, this plague epidemic, almost half of the people died in the capital last year, and there are countless other places, is it to prevent the plague from epidemic again, there are other diseases, with the current level of medical care, having a child may not be able to raise an adult, this medical level can not keep up with the requirements of the times, so a special health and medical leadership department should be established."
"Isn't there a hospital?"
"The Tai Hospital is also a hospital, that is, for the royal family and hundreds of officials, the common people are not necessarily shown when they are sick, saying that they manage the country's medical administration, in fact, they can't manage it at all, so we must set up a special agency to manage the country's medical administration, prevent epidemics, and improve the country's medical level.
Zhu Youzhen thought for a moment and nodded, "What you said makes a little sense." β
Zhang Ping wants to say, what I said makes sense? What I'm saying makes so much sense.
"Your Majesty, you look at the education of the whole country, now only a few people can read, do not improve the education level of the whole people, development can only be a castle in the air, so, if you want to develop greatly, high-speed development must vigorously develop education for all, the content of this learning must also be adjusted, and those things are not of much use, new learning is easy and also face to develop greatly, cultivate useful talents, to be honest, many children from poor families have a very high IQ, because they can't be educated, they are nothing, to cultivate talents, we must face the whole people, Ten years of planting trees, a hundred years of cultivating people, education is related to the future of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor, you say this is not the reason. β
Zhang Ping said that he felt the pressure of social development, now, the development level of all countries in the world is about the same, the Ming Dynasty is not at the forefront in individual aspects, the people of Europa have made cannons, the cannons of the Ming Dynasty are still imitations of people, once people enter the era of steam engines, the Ming Dynasty will lag behind, why don't you lead China to enter the first industry first, isn't this their historical mission?
"However, it costs a lot of money for the country to make compulsory education universal."
"Hey, hey! Your Majesty, you are afraid of being poor because you don't have money, I told the emperor that there is a way to make money, and in the future, I will guarantee that the emperor will worry about not being able to spend money every day. β
Zhu Youzhen laughed when he heard it, worried that he couldn't spend a lot of money? I am willing to die of sorrow because I can't spend the money, "It's not a big road to raid the house, is there always a time when corrupt officials and corrupt officials finish copying?" β
"Hey, hey! The way to make money on the right path, what the minister has, isn't this that you can't live a poor life now, so the minister gave you a way to get money quickly? β
"Really?"
"Of course, the minister has a lot of problems and is bold, but there are two things that the minister dare not do, one is to kill people and set fires, but to deceive the emperor."
Zhu Youzhen laughed when he heard it, "The oil cavity is slippery!" Tell me quickly, how will I make money in the future? β
Zhang Ping looked at Zhu Youzhen, "I said the emperor, how can you have the same virtue as your father-in-law?" As soon as he said that he was getting money, his eyes widened. β
Zhu Youzhen was furious when he heard this, "Boy, can you control your stinky mouth?" How can you compare me to that old thing? Am I indulging you too much? β
"Yes! Be! Be! Your Majesty, look at the minister's stinky mouth, he will tell the truth without paying attention, and the minister should be beaten! The minister should fight! β
"What? That's what you think of me? β
"It's not! No! You see that the minister said the wrong thing again, the emperor is the best emperor in the world. β
"What do you mean? Is there a second emperor in the world? β
"It's not! No! Your Majesty, don't be angry, don't you know that the ministers are afraid of you? If you're like this, why don't you say the wrong thing? β
"Don't talk nonsense, talk about how to make money in the future!"
"Your Majesty, you have to find time to say it, and you can't finish it all at once."
"Okay, I'll talk about it in detail later, I'm not short of money to spend right now."
Zhang Ping laughed when he heard it, this Zhu Youzhen, "Your Majesty, let's talk about education here, in addition, the minister suggested the establishment of an industrial manufacturing bureau, not only to study and manufacture farm tools, machinery, and living utensils, but also to undertake the research and manufacture of new artillery. Bombarded his mother directly, and there were no special feet left. β
Zhu Youzhen was excited when he heard it, "That's a good point!" Well said! β
"In addition, to let the people have enough to eat, live a good life, but also to vigorously develop agricultural technology, according to the minister's understanding, there are two kinds of crops in the south and the South China Sea, which can be planted in arid areas, one is called sweet potatoes, one is called potatoes, Jiang Dejing should know, if these two crops can be promoted in the disaster area, the people's food problem will be solved, in addition, we must also strengthen agricultural research, ideas to increase production, there is nothing more meaningful than let the people eat enough, so that the children of the world have books to read? At that time, didn't all the people praise the emperor as a saint of the ages? β
"What you said is true?"
