Chapter 9: Stay Still

"If the first peace is today, it is the time to rule the world, and then you can start killing again?"

"What's more, although the rebellion is settled, there are still many displaced people in various places, and natural disasters in various places are also continuous, resulting in more and more displaced people, if they are not dealt with in time, sooner or later there will be changes."

"Now is the time to use the money!"

"The treasury is now not much in savings, and it is barely enough to cope with the above situation, and if it sends troops to the grassland again, it will really be beyond its means."

"The minister is also a rough military officer, and judging from the current situation, there will be civil strife within Warat! In the past ten years, several of them have been fighting for their territory, only because of the great power of the Tatars, the alliance has been unified, and now the Tatars are scattered, not to mention the old grudges, just fighting for the territory of the Tatars, they cannot be peaceful! ”

"Your Majesty sent troops to conquer the grassland at this time, there is no need at all, it is just a waste of national strength!"

After speaking, Yan Chenhao bowed deeply.

In a word, stay safe!

Zhu Changxun read his firmness from his teacher's actions and words.

He couldn't help but rub his brow.

"I remember that Chen Guogong didn't bring a large amount of loot? That's a lot of money, and it should be enough to make it up to the treasury. ”

Zhu Changxun made the final struggle.

Yan Chenhao was shocked in his heart when he heard this, his eyes were a little incredulous, and then he immediately spoke:

"Your Majesty, these are the proceeds of the Tatars plundering the people, and they are going to be used in the Northland! The minister didn't include the restoration of the Northland just now, because he had already planned to use this asset there, you, you are ......"

Hearing this, Zhu Changxun hesitated for a while, and then like a deflated ball, the whole person relaxed:

"Alright, alright...... My teacher, I listen to you. ”

Yan Shizhao also had a little regret in his eyes, and he also thought that maybe he could drink Ma Hanhai and seal the wolf like the champion Hou and Liang Guogong! But his uncle's words did make sense, and he couldn't and wouldn't refute them.

After all, in the vast desert, if you want to send troops to fight in depth against Warat, you can't do it without the support of deep national strength. When Lan Yu was able to lead the army to sweep the desert twice, it was also because of the wealth of the Hongwu and Yongle dynasties.

Both of them were persuaded to stop the matter of sending troops.

However, Yan Chenhao did not leave either.

"Your Majesty, the ministers are here precisely for the sake of the displaced people."

"Although the rebellion has basically subsided, there are still many displaced people gathered in various places, but they are shocked by several victories of the imperial court, so they do not dare to act rashly. However, if it goes on like this, there will be a threat after all, and I ask Your Majesty to send officials as soon as possible to give soup to the people, distribute land, rebuild towns, and appease the people. ”

Although the counterinsurgency campaigns in several provinces were won quickly, they also fought several major battles, and they wandered all over the country, resulting in serious damage in many places, and those who did not fight, the displaced people who gathered also needed to be appeased.

Zhu Changxun nodded, it seemed that because the proposal to use soldiers was rejected, he was a little angry at this time, and he didn't mean to say more:

"As it should be. My teacher, who do you think can do these important tasks? ”

"The minister thinks ......"

In just a few words, a major event has been decided.

And Yan Chenhao then mentioned some other political affairs.

Yan Shizhao was on the side, watching the conversation between the master and apprentice, feeling a little helpless.

They didn't notice that these words shouldn't have come out of the mouth of a scholar at all?

These have long been beyond the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Justice!

The ministers of the cabinet were the secretaries of the emperor, and they were the ones who made suggestions and helped to deal with government affairs. It is not that the secretary of the ministry cannot make suggestions, but his scope of authority should be to be in charge of the appointment and dismissal of personnel in the imperial court, and the rest of the matters should be attached to the cabinet ministers.

Yan Chenhao is undoubtedly a bit out of bounds by doing this, and even if it spreads, it is actually easy to attract criticism.

A secretary of the ministry, what are you doing with all this?

However, Yan Chenhao thinks that he is the emperor's teacher, so he has the responsibility of teaching, even now, he is basically responsible for the emperor's daily lectures, and naturally he does not feel that there is any problem with the emperor's performance.

Yan Shizhao noticed it.

Although he is not proficient in political affairs, compared to some intrigues in the court, he is better at crisscrossing the battlefield, but he has noticed this to some extent.

So not long after the end of this meeting, a few courtiers went to the court, saying that there were only four people in the cabinet, and now that there were many court affairs, it was inconvenient to deal with them, and they asked for some more places.

Of course, this is just an excuse, and the emperor is naturally gracious.

As for who will be in the cabinet, do you need to say?

Yan Chenhao has long been said by some people in the court to be "the first assistant who has not entered the cabinet", referring to Yan Chenhao obviously did not enter the cabinet, but he always put forward some suggestions to the emperor that did not conform to his identity and status, but the emperor often adopted it, and sometimes he spoke more than the first assistant of the cabinet, so he got such a nickname, although there is irony, but it can be seen that this person's special status.

It's not an accident to enter the cabinet now.

……

No matter what the courtiers say, at least Yan Chenhao is indeed capable of governing state affairs.

Some of the suggestions he put forward can get to the heart of the problem at a glance and can be solved in a timely manner.

Not to Yan Chenhao's expectations, although the northern Warat took the opportunity to quickly advance eastward and grabbed a large piece of Tatar territory, but soon they broke out into contradictions, in order to compete for the most fertile land of water and grass, as well as some old feuds that existed before, the war broke out soon. There was a bloody storm on the grassland, and what Zhu Changxun was worried about was just like what he said, it didn't happen at all, and no one wanted to provoke the behemoth in the south.

The problem of displaced people has also been solved, Yan Chenhao has also been in the DPRK for a long time, there is no problem in knowing people, and the people sent out are all capable ministers and cadres, and after they arrived at the place, they quickly settled the displaced people, or repatriated, or distributed land locally, and the time bombs were eliminated one by one.

The rescued people also settled down in the Northland and built a new home.

After he entered the cabinet, the operation of the cabinet was also much smoother, and the decrees reached all directions, better governing this empire that was already in decline.

And the public opinion of the people is also full of praise for the emperor.

After all, it is certainly a merit to put down a rebellion in a short period of time, and then start to govern the country, and it is visible to the naked eye that the people everywhere are stable.

When the news reached the palace, Zhu Changxun's face showed a look of joy visible to the naked eye, and he drank a few more glasses of wine that day.

The years of Emperor Wuxing, under such circumstances, passed quietly.

Before you know it, five years have passed.
