Chapter 1024 Shangwu
Sun Chengzong responded, his affairs were basically over.
Seeing this, Bi Ziyan continued, "Emperor, the plan of the 'New Policy' has begun to be implemented. According to my observations on various places, the majority of those who oppose it, that is, verbally. If the court gives it a chance, they will probably change their attitude soon."
Zhu Xu brought a cup of tea and did not answer immediately.
Bi Ziyan's words actually have multiple considerations. The most important thing is to reduce the resistance of the "New Deal", alleviate the confrontation between the government and the opposition, and eliminate some hidden dangers.
Zhu Xu put down the teacup and looked at Bi Ziyan and said, "The ban cannot be released for the time being. The court's attitude must be firm and cannot give anyone with ill intentions. The official team of the 'New Policy' must be clean and pure, and there is no need to say much about this."
Seeing that Zhu Xu's attitude was still so firm and he did not persist, Bi Ziyan really couldn't hurry up.
After thinking for a while, he said: "Emperor, the 'New Policy' plan is now at a critical moment, and it is impossible to relax at all. I have discussed with the six cabinet ministries. After May, I, King Jing, Wang Qiaonian, Minister of Justice Zhang Wenda, Minister of Revenue Zhang Bingwen, Minister of Revenue Zhao Han, etc., intend to leave Beijing one after another. First, I will urge the local government to advance and implement a series of plans for the 'New Policy', and secondly, I will also plan to see the local situation in person..."
Zhu Xu sat up with a slightly solemn expression.
Bi Ziyan's idea and the requirements were very reasonable, but so many people went out at once, and the cabinet and the six ministries were basically empty.
Zhu Xu thought carefully in his heart and nodded, "Okay. There is Sun Baigu in the cabinet, and the six ministries have been sorted out. It should be no big problem. Since you all want to leave the capital, I must consider your safety."
Bi Ziyan, Sun Chengzong looked at Zhu Xu and felt that his words were a little inexplicable. Will they not have any guards when they go out?
Zhu Xu touched his chin, Yu Guang looked at the two of them and smiled secretly. Some things he had prepared long ago and could finally do their best.
He quickly restrained his expression and sat upright, "Li Jingbai's affairs can't be done anymore, and local guards are hard to rest assured. Always withdrawing from patrol battalions and imperial guards is not a solution. This is how, the six ministers and cabinet assistants, I allow a certain number of guards, which are affiliated with the Ministry of War, and select from various local troops. All of them must be elite. Officers above the general can also have a certain number of guards, and others can also be given according to the situation or declared by themselves. What do you think?"
Bi Ziyan and Sun Chengzong did not expect Zhu Xu to have this idea at all. They were shocked and then looked at each other.
After the founding of Taizu, especially after Chengzu, the state dynasty had strict control over the royal family, nobles, nobles, etc., most people did not allow the possession of guards, and even the family was not allowed to possess "weapons". Once reported, the house would often be searched!
In history, before Li Zicheng captured the capital, Chongzhen asked his son-in-law Gong Yonggu and others to protect the prince from the south. As a result, Gong Yonggu and others cried when they heard this, saying, "If your relatives do not hide their armor, they will find it difficult to fight against the thief with empty hands."
Not only is there no one, there is not even a dagger on his body!
Under such harshness, it was so terrifying that it was suddenly necessary to equip civil officials with guards and military generals with guards!
If it were before, they would have been scared and punished for death.
If it is transmitted outside again, it will definitely cause huge opposition, and many people will try their best to stop it!
But Bi Ziyan, Sun Chengzong was only shocked and had no extra expression. His Majesty the Emperor in front of him had done any "absurd" things, and this one is not bad!
Bi Ziyan was silent for a while and said, "Your Majesty, I think it's not necessary..."
Before he could finish his words, Zhu Xu waved his hand and said, "There is no need to worry about so much. Leave this matter to the Ministry of War to do it, and the Ministry of War will be unified and allocated. You can also select people by yourself. What is the specific constitution, the cabinet, the Grand Marshal's Office, and the Ministry of War jointly report to me. I will say again, Li Jingbai's incident must not happen. If you leave the capital, safety is the first priority. If necessary, choose from the imperial guards!"
The emperor was persistent in giving kindness, and looked like everything was for their good, which made the two of them not know how to answer for a while.
Zhu Xu naturally would not give them a chance, saying, "By the way, this year's imperial examinations should be added to the 'martial arts', and not placed on the exam questions. We must carry out practical things. The six arts of gentlemen cannot be missing."
Bi Ziyan was stunned and said, "Actually? What does the emperor mean?"
Zhu Xu had an idea and said directly, "Anyone who is awarded the Jinshi must first conduct horse riding, archery, long-distance running and other assessments, and set a standard. Anyone who fails several times will not be awarded, and will be first in the third grade and will be promoted in the future."
Bi Ziyan frowned slightly, the guards and imperial examinations, these two things were obviously related. He remembered the word "Shangwu" that Zhu Xu said before.
Sun Chengzong naturally realized that in this case, I was afraid that the Ming Dynasty would start the martial arts style.
The two looked at each other, and their faces were slightly condensed.
Since ancient times, literature has promoted the country through martial arts and destroyed by martial arts. "Supering martial arts" is the source of all kinds of disasters, and peaceful and prosperous times have never been "Supering martial arts".
Bi Ziyan looked at Zhu Xu and hesitated. Just as he was about to speak, Cao Huachun appeared in time and said, "Emperor, General Xiong, King Tang is waiting for the order outside the palace. General Cao Bianjiao is expected to arrive in Beijing in three days."
Zhu Xu's head gestured, then looked at Bi Ziyan, and Sun Chengzong said, "For specific details, you can discuss it and report it to me, go."
Bi Ziyan wanted to say something else, but Sun Chengzong quietly came to him and shook his head slightly.
Bi Ziyan wanted to speak but stopped, so he had to raise his hand and said, "I will leave."
Zhu Xu watched the two of them leave with a smile on his face.
As long as this opening is made, the Ming Dynasty will become more martial and prosperous in the future. In every corner of this world, there will be a sword on the waist of the Ming people, a tall horse, and a rampant world!
Cao Huachun and the other two pavilions left and stepped forward and said, "General Xiong, King Tang has been arranged by his servants in the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the emperor. Should the emperor summon him immediately?"
Zhu Xu shook his head and said, "Let's talk about it when Cao Bianjiao arrives. The navy's planning is a big strategy, and he must be left out."
Cao Huachun came in just to give Zhu Xu an excuse to send Bi Ziyan and Sun Chengzong away so that they would not continue to get entangled.
"Yes." Cao Huachun responded and quietly stepped back.
Bi Ziyan and Sun Chengzong left the Qianqing Palace and stood in front of the steps with different expressions.
Bi Ziyan looked up at the sky and sighed, "The wind is coming."
Once this martial wind opens, it will inevitably spread throughout the Ming Dynasty. With this wind together, it will be difficult to conquer all the difficulties!
Sun Chengzong smiled calmly and said, "The wind has risen long ago, it is your queen mother who realized it."
Bi Ziyan's expression moved and could not refute it. Indeed, the source of this wind must be calculated from the current emperor's ascension to the throne.
"Let's go, we have to hold on for a few years. If someone else was replaced, the wind... would have been a storm." Sun Chengzong smiled and walked forward.
Bi Ziyan sighed secretly and followed him back to the cabinet.
What Sun Chengzong said was right, that is, they could still rely on their seniority and the emperor was a little concerned. If some people were interested in the situation, they would be afraid that the situation would have been turbulent!
Sun Chengzong and Bi Ziyan did not make it public directly about the matter of "Shangwu". Instead, they decided to wait for qualified officials to leave the capital in a silent manner to select personal guards for them, and then stay in the mansion and escort them with their own guards. This would be natural. When they wanted to object, it was too late.
