The twenty-eighth chapter builds the navy(1/2)
Looking at the young man in front of him, Han Yu did not show any expression on his face, but his heart was not calm.
He knew that the question Zhang Yu asked was actually just giving himself face and making him feel that he was the protagonist of this matter.
But from the beginning to the present, everything has been in Zhang Yu's plan.
Although his face was quiet, Han Du couldn't help but have thoughts in his heart.
However, seeing Zhang Yu so aware of his feelings made Han Yu feel relieved, so he asked, "What do you think?"
Zhang Yu originally thought Han Dong would make the decision by himself, but he didn't expect that he would ask himself directly.
This made Zhang Yu feel moved, and he couldn't help but look up at Han Dong.
He wanted to see whether what Han Du said was true or false. However, such an old fox would definitely remain calm, so Zhang Yu didn't see anything.
After pondering for a moment, Zhang Yu said, "I think we can start to act. Now that Mr. Feng has become the right Tongzheng Department of Tongzheng, it can be seen that Your Majesty trusts him and our strategy is going very smoothly. Then the next step is to help him find a place for the Royal Academy to sacrificial wine. This is the key step. As long as we do this step, the rest will be very simple for us."
After saying this, Zhang Yu took a step back, looked up at Han Du, and waited for him to give him an answer.
In fact, Zhang Yu was very nervous. He didn't know if Han Dong would agree to his request.
Because from any perspective, Feng Congwu became the sacrificial wine of the Royal Academy and got more benefits from himself.
For Han Du, he might have concerns in his heart. He would not have had these concerns at first. After all, none of them were as high as Han Du's official position, so he still needed to rely on him.
But since he went to see His Majesty, the effect has been so good. Both Feng Congwu and himself have fallen into His Majesty's eyes, which is likely to make Han Yu feel the crisis.
Han Dong is likely to be dissatisfied. In this way, it is not certain whether Han Dong will stick to the original plan.
Han Yu might want to arrange his own people, but his people may not be recognized by His Majesty. In this way, things will be difficult to deal with.
Zhang Yu also had another idea in his mind. Perhaps this is what His Majesty meant, and he wanted to make his relationship with Han Yu not that close.
Because only in this way, we cannot truly become a party. At that time, as long as Your Majesty gets closer to anyone, it will be easier for him to get to power, and both sides need to rely on Your Majesty.
After thinking about this, although Zhang Yu had no expression on his face, he already had an idea in his heart.
His Majesty is indeed very thoughtful, and the most important thing is also a master of power and skills. It can be said that he is playing with power and skills invisibly.
On the surface, he seemed to be fulfilling himself and Feng Congwu, and at the same time tied Feng Congwu to him. But in fact, he started working on Han Du, and probably wanted to leave him a check and balance.
If this happens, Your Majesty will definitely promote Feng Congwu next. I am afraid that as long as you report this matter, Your Majesty will agree, and Feng Congwu's official position will be promoted. Only in this way can you compete with Han Du.
Han Yu glanced at Zhang Yu deeply.
The benefit of this plan to Han Yu is not that great, but he also knows that he can't stop.
Now things have come to His Majesty. If you stop suddenly, it will be more than worth the loss. Even if you want to turn your back, it will not be the case now.
Han Du stroked his beard and nodded and said, "You are right. Now is indeed the best time, and it is imminent. The Royal Academy exam is about to begin. We will push Feng Congwu up before the academy exam. I will arrange this matter."
Zhang Yu quickly bowed and said, "Then the teacher will be so worried."
Han nodded and said with a smile: "A new chef has arrived at home. I heard that it is from your northwest and can cook your hometown dishes. You can stay for dinner tonight."
Zhang Yu quickly smiled and said, "Then the student disturbed the teacher."
Han Yu and Zhang Yu looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
Now the two sides are in the honeymoon period of cooperation, and no one wants to raise trouble or have differences at this time, so the relationship can still be together.
Xiyuan, in the pavilion by the lake.
Zhu Youxiao sat on the rocking chair, shaking his body gently, and occasionally opened his eyes to see the sunset falling in the distance. The expression on his face was very leisurely.
Next to him was a table with a stack of question books on it.
Speaking of which, I haven’t read the question book like this for a while. Originally, Zhu Youxiao thought that after becoming emperor, he would be very busy every day, and it was all a major national event.
But after doing it for such a long time, Zhu Youxiao found that this was not the case at all.
The so-called national affairs are basically handled by the ministers of the cabinet and court. Wherever there is a famine, money and food will be distributed to provide disaster relief; wherever there is someone causing trouble, then send someone to quell the rebellion.
As an emperor, you don’t have to worry about these so-called big things, because these things have a set of rules and regulations. As long as you do it according to the rules and regulations, there will basically be no major problems.
Instead, it takes more time to work on the personnel of the court officials. The most time and energy they are fighting for, and they pay more attention to the various impeachments and attacks of officials on weekdays.
It seems that you impeach me today and I impeach you tomorrow. It seems that all are very simple things, but all the hidden reasons afterwards are not that simple.
What is revealed is only the tip of the iceberg, and the huge one is hidden under the water.
Throwing the question board in his hand on the table, Zhu Youxiao said with a normal expression: "The Ministry of Rites wants to appoint a priest from the Royal Academy. Shen Tingjun recommended a man named Wang Zi. What does the cabinet mean?"
"Apart from Mr. Xu, everyone else disagrees." Chen Hong stood aside and said respectfully.
After hearing this answer, Zhu Youxiao nodded gently.
In fact, he had thought of this answer for a long time. The biggest threshold for Wang Cheng was that he was not a Jinshi. Therefore, there is more reason to object to such an appointment.
In fact, there are many reasons for opposition, but the most important point is that no one wants him to do it because he is from Xu Guangqi and Shen Tingyun.
However, Zhu Youxiao discovered some interesting things about Wang Cheng. This person is also a child of Xinxue, but he is different from others. This person is a complete Catholic.
Wang Zheng is different from Xu Guangqi. Xu Guangqi's hobbies are numbers and astronomy and calendars, and the one who values Western learning is more important is firearms; but Wang Zheng is different, he plays physics.
Wang Zheng loved ancient artifacts and machinery in his early years. Before he became an official, he developed hydraulic, wind and load-load machinery and wrote "New Artifacts and Explanations". Later, he compiled "The Artifacts and Explanations of the Far West" with Swiss missionary Deng Yuhan.
Wang Zheng is now in the Baigong Academy. As a master in the Baigong Academy, Zhu Youchao has a deep understanding of this person.
Zhu Youxiao has also read Wang Zheng's works. It can be said that this person has a very profound attainment in physics.
Zhu Youxiao was not optimistic about letting such a person serve as a sacrificial wine, and it was also a sacrificial wine from the Royal Academy.
However, Zhu Youxiao also understood why Xu Guangqi and the others recommended this Wang Zheng, just because they wanted him to spread their ideas.
But Zhu Youxiao really doesn't like Wang Zheng as a sacrificial wine, but he only attaches great importance to him.
For Zhu Youxiao, he knew very well what such a practical physicist meant to the Ming Dynasty.
The significance of this Wang Cheng is much greater than that of the officials in the court, so Zhu Youxiao must have used this person, but he did not let him serve as a sacrificial tribute.
If he asked Wang Zheng to serve as a sacrificial sacrificial sacrificial storm, he would inevitably be pushed to the forefront.
The Royal Academy of the Ming Dynasty did not train scientific researchers, but to cultivate bureaucrats and spread some ideas they wanted to spread.
It was really a waste of talent to ask Wang Zheng to do this.
Zhu Youxiao put the question book aside, and he would not agree with this matter.
"Are there any other recommendations?" Zhu Youxiao looked at Chen Hong and asked again.
"Go back to the emperor, there is." Chen Hong hurriedly bowed and said, "Several Cabinet Grand Secretary have all submitted the title book, and all have recommended candidates. Among them, the Minister of Rites Zhao Bingzhong, the Minister of Rites."
After hearing the name Zhao Bingzhong, Zhu Youxiao laughed first.
Why are you not surprised at all?
Zhao Bingzhong is a staunch supporter of the Legalists. He has always admired the laws of Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang. He pays attention to being strict and even more strict with officials.
It was natural for Huang Kezhang and Zhao Bingzhong to get together.
Zhu Youxiao nodded, turned to look at Chen Hong and asked, "Who is Han Du, the chief minister of the cabinet?"
This is something Zhu Youxiao is more curious about.
"Go back to the emperor, Master Han recommended the Tongzhengsi and the right Tongzheng Feng Congwu." Chen Hong hurriedly bowed and said.
After being with his prince for so long, Chen Hong is naturally not a political novices. This time, the incident was clearly unusual.
Several cabinet masters in the cabinet were fighting each other.
Zhu Youxiao nodded again. Why is he still not surprised at all?
He continued to ask indifferently: "Where is the master Sun Chengzong and Sun Georgia of the cabinet?"
"Go back to the emperor, Master Sun recommended Yuan Keli." Chen Hong said respectfully.
Yuan Keli?
After hearing this name, Zhu Youxiao sat upright.
This is really a familiar name. Zhu Youxiao also knows this person's ability, so it seems that it's time to move him.
Yuan Keli went through the four emperors of Wanli, Taichang, Tianqi and Chongzhen, and was awarded the honor of "the elders of the four dynasties" and "the honor of "the honor of the five generations".
After looking at Chen Hong, Zhu Youxiao said directly: "Immediately pass the order to the cabinet, and promote Yuan Ke to the Minister of War, the left-level censor of the Censorate, and the Governor Denglai."
For such people, please don’t stay in the capital, hurry up and go to Denglai to be the governor.
Zhu Youxiao Tai knew what Yuan Keli could do, so he asked him to go to Denglai to be the governor, which was much more useful than leaving him in the capital.
The most important point is that after Yuan Keli arrived in Denglai, he could have built a navy there.
With the navy, not only can they transport food and grass, but they can also launch an attack on Jiannu through sea. Whether it is transporting people or transporting food and grass, it is much more convenient and cheaper than taking the land.
Therefore, Zhu Youxiao thought it was more appropriate to send Yuan Keli to Denglai.
After pondering for a moment, Zhu Youxiao said again: "Do you understand if you let him go to the palace before leaving Beijing?"
"Go back to the emperor, I understand." Chen Hong quickly agreed.
"Okay, then go." Zhu Youxiao waved his hand, then leaned against the chair, slowly closed his eyes, and continued to shake the chair.
Yuan Keli, the governor of Denglai, is a capable man.
