Chapter 410: Niu Jizong's Second Spring
Mingshifang, Dongcheng, Beijing, was a prosperous commercial district in the Qian Dynasty.
It's getting late, the lights are brightly lit on the streets, and there's an endless stream of pedestrians coming and going. It's even more lively than during the day. This is the night market of Daqian Dynasty.
The night market is very lively, with clothes, hats, tents, bonsai flowers, fresh fish, pigs and sheep, pastries, preserves, and seasonal fruits, all available all night long, every day of the year.
The prefectures and cities of the Daqian Dynasty were also divided into hierarchical levels. The residences of the Dukes' families were mostly in the same area. The Ningguo Duke's Palace and the Zhenguo Duke's Palace were not far apart, so Jia Yun and Niu Jizong traveled together.
On the street, Jia Yun and Niu Jizong walked together with their horses. Along the way, Jia Yun looked at the bustling night market with great interest. Niu Jizong next to him had dark eyes and turned a deaf ear to the excitement in front of him. Instead, he paid attention to Jia Yun from time to time. He understood that Jia Yun was not a person who had the leisure to travel with him. They traveled together this time, presumably to give and receive in private.
Moreover, Jia Yun asked him to be responsible for the affairs of the new Yamen, which was strange, so Niu Jizong has been uneasy!!!
After walking through a street, Jia Yun smiled and joked: "Uncle Niu Shi has become more and more diligent in cultivating his energy. He was so absent-minded along the way that he couldn't help but not ask, which surprised me!!!"
This Niu Jizong didn't have a very good temper in the past, and his dissatisfaction could be reflected in his face, but now he has calmed down!!!
Listening to Jia Yun's joke, Niu Jizong still looked indifferent and said: "I have been idle at home for a while, raising fish and watering flowers every day. I am used to it."
Jia Yun chuckled when he heard this. Jia Yun was the one who made it happen that he was idle at home. Now the two of them are getting along harmoniously. It's a bit strange when you think about it carefully. However, Jia Yun is not bad to Zhen Guo Gongfu, at least the Zhen Guo Gongfu. People are reused around Jia Yun, right?
"Uncle Niu Shi, you also know that my consort has always been straightforward about what he says. I won't hide it anymore. If you want to return to the court, you have to show your attitude."
When Niu Jizong heard this, his eyes lit up, and he knew that Jia Yun had something to say to him, so Niu Jizong cupped his hands and said, "Please give me some advice, Prince Consort."
Jia Yun glanced at Niu Jizong and said earnestly: "Uncle Niu Shi, you also know that troubled times require good generals, prosperous times require capable ministers, and the court emphasizes civility over military force. This is the general trend!!!"
Niu Jizong naturally understood what Jia Yun said. Since ancient times, the world has been conquered on horseback, but the world cannot be ruled on horseback. Civil servants govern the country, and military generals are useless in peacetime. Therefore, it is normal for civilian officials to have a higher status than military generals. .
Seeing Niu Jizong's silence, Jia Yun didn't care, and continued: "Now His Majesty still thinks highly of our generals. This is His Majesty's kindness. To put it bluntly, if Your Majesty were not in charge, I'm afraid our plans would be nothing more than mirror images. "
When Niu Jizong heard this, he raised his eyes and glanced at Jia Yun. He knew what Jia Yun meant. He wanted to choose his side. Only when your majesty is in power can the affairs of the new Yamen be settled. In the future, your majesty will do great things, and future generations will not be good at it. Activate this policy.
After pondering for a moment, Niu Jizong clasped his fists and said respectfully: "The Holy Emperor is above us, we dare not die in service."
Jia Yun nodded with satisfaction. Niu Jizong's words were regarded as loyalty to the emperor.
After a pause, Jia Yun said: "I have mentioned Uncle Niu Shishu to Your Majesty. Your Majesty also thinks that Uncle Niu Shishu is mature and prudent. As the choice of assistant minister, Uncle Niu Shishu will do his job!!!"
Now that he has expressed his stance, Jia Yun naturally has to promise benefits. If he wants his horse to run fast, how can he not give him good fodder?
Although Niu Jizong had already guessed, he still couldn't confirm it in his heart. Now when he heard what Jia Yun said, his expression suddenly became excited, and he looked up to the sky and said: "Your Majesty's kindness, I can't repay it. I will definitely fulfill my duties faithfully in the future and live up to the holy grace."
Jia Yun looked speechless. He could understand Niu Jizong's thoughts. After all, one of the assistant ministers had entered the center of the court. You must know that in the hundred years since the founding of Daqian, every family and mansion in the Wuxun line had declined. He The Duke of Zhenguo can serve as the governor of the 12th regiment of the Beijing camp, which is already the best in martial arts. Unfortunately, although the rank of the governor of the Beijing camp is not low, it is really far from what the central government wants. If he becomes an assistant minister, The power is no less than that of the cabinet ministers, and it is easy to reach the top of the palace.
After a while, Jia Yun said: "Uncle Niu Shi, it's too early to be happy now. If the new Yamen cannot be established, it will be just empty talk."
Niu Jizong came to his senses after hearing this. Jia Yun was right. If the new Yamen could not be established, the civil servants would still be able to suppress them, and the affairs of the ministers would naturally come to nothing.
"Don't worry, Prince Consort, I will keep an eye on this matter. If it wasn't just a quarrel, I would still be afraid of them."
Seeing Niu Jizong's fighting spirit, Jia Yun understood that if those civil servants messed up the affairs of the new Yamen, Niu Jizong would fight them tooth and nail, and this was something Jia Yun was happy to see.
Jia Yun raised his eyes and looked at Niu Jizong, and said meaningfully: "Uncle Niu Shi, if you encounter any difficulties, you may wish to discuss it with the Governor Wang. You tell him that once the errand is done, His Majesty will not be stingy. There are four assistant ministers in the new Yamen. ah!!!!"
Niu Jizong raised his eyebrows when he heard this. Doesn't Jia Yun's words mean that Wang Qian is also one of the four ministers...
"I understand. I will discuss it with Governor Wang later." Niu Jizong replied in a deep voice.
Jia Yun nodded, waved his hand and said, "Okay, I'll leave the matter to Uncle Niu Shi. I'll go back first."
With that said, Jia Yun took the lead to leave. Everything was explained clearly, and Jia Yun stopped talking nonsense. Anyway, it was left to Niu Jizong and the others. Jia Yun only needed to watch the show. Things in the new Yamen seemed complicated. In fact, it is very simple, because Jian is in the emperor's heart, but there is a lack of a suitable excuse. Now that Jia Yun and other martial arts have thrown out the excuse, and Emperor Chongming is behind it, everything is going smoothly.
Now that Jia Yun knows the result, there is no need for him to rush forward and show his face. Leave it all to Niu Jizong and the others. The harder Niu Jizong and the others work, the heavier the labels on them will be. Once they get on the boat and want to get off the boat, they have no choice but to do so. He did.
Moreover, Jia Yun has his own job. As long as Wang Qian and Niu Jizong start taking action, this also represents Wang Qian's choice. At this time, Jia Yun can do his old job. Don't forget, Jia Yun However, the main task assigned to him by Emperor Chongming as the Jiedushi of Jingying was to control the Jingying.
The composition of the Siyong Camp under Wang Qian's jurisdiction is complex, and Jia Yun will naturally not watch it. However, he and Wu Xun maintain a delicate balance, so Jia Yun has never taken action against the Siyong Camp. But now, Jia Yun has revealed a little bit. Attitude, Wang Qian and others can detect it, choose one of the two, the more powerful ministers or the military power of the Beijing camp!!
