Chapter 190: Don’t be honest and do your best(1/3)
In the seventh year of Wanli, on October 18th, there was heavy snow.
As the saying goes, if there is nothing to worry about, it is a good time in the world.
According to this statement, Zhu Yijun has missed the good times since he ascended the throne.
There are always a few things that are on my mind.
For example, today, even if you practice martial arts, you still have endless political affairs to deal with and endless memorials to receive.
Outside Jingyun Gate, the school grounds.
Zhu Yijun picked up a long black bow, breathed evenly, tightened the bow string, and carefully aimed at the target fifty steps away.
Zheng Zongxue stood beside the emperor and continued: "...the review is scheduled to take place on the 22nd of the first lunar month. As for the number of people, which battalions, and the specific procedures, Mr. Wang Ge is still discussing with Governor Gu."
call out!
Zhu Yijun suddenly released his fingers.
The arrow came out of the string, drew an arc in the air, and barely embedded itself into the edge of the target.
"You should pay more attention to the military parade. Zhao Yongxian will be transferred to Zhejiang to fight against the Japanese pirates. I am going to let Lai Tinghui take over as the right staff officer of the Beijing camp. You will carry him on your shoulders this month before he takes office."
Zhu Yijun put down the five-force bow and picked up a six-force bow - one pound in the Ming Dynasty was about 595 grams, and nine pounds and four ounces was one force.
With an extra force, when the bowstring is stretched, it is not as full as before.
Zhu Yijun's arms were trembling a little, and he took a serious look: "Take advantage of the military parade to clean up the noble generals who are on empty pay. You are a civil servant, so it is more convenient for you than Gu Huan to do this."
In a Beijing camp with 100,000 people, it is inevitable that some people will live on empty wages.
It needs to be checked every three to five years.
Just as Zheng Zongxue was about to speak, he heard the buzzing of the bow string, and an arrow grazed the target and flew back.
When he saw the bow and arrow falling to the ground, he held it in his hand and congratulated the emperor: "The distance of this arrow should be one hundred and twenty steps! It can be seen that your majesty already has six powers, and he is truly both civil and military!"
The emperor's training is based on the standards of the Beijing camp. The distance requirement is 120 steps to pass, and 160 steps to be excellent.
In terms of strength, it is divided into upper, middle and lower. The upper force is one hundred and twenty kilograms; the middle force is eighty kilograms; and the lower force is sixty kilograms.
The emperor can draw a six-power bow and shoot 120 steps, which has already reached the standard of a big-headed archer.
Although he missed the target, Your Majesty shot far!
Wu De prosperous!
Zhu Yijun glanced at Zheng Zongxue angrily: "You have become a sycophant. Why don't you see me practicing my accuracy?"
To be honest, he must have done countless preparations like this for half a day.
For example, the test standard for martial arts examinations is to shoot at a moving target for eighty steps and hit half of the twelve consecutive shots.
Therefore, Zhu Yijun can only be said to be above strength, not accurate enough, and a half-step big-headed soldier.
Faced with the emperor's ridicule, Zheng Zongxue simply said calmly: "I am fortunate to have you by your side now. If you obey me, even though your majesty is the emperor, how can you talk about it?"
To obey the emperor is also because you are afraid that the emperor will be bored.
After Zhu Yijun heard this, he didn't hold back his expression and burst into laughter: "The courtiers all use allusions to persuade me, but you use them to make me happy."
This was said by Yuwen Shiji.
Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty saw a tree and casually praised it as a good tree. The scholar Yu Wenji on the side roared and raised his hands in agreement, "Ah, it's really beautiful."
Taizong said silently, you look like a sycophant, so Yu Wenshiji said what Zheng Zongxue said - it can be seen that the true confidant is the one who can make the leader relax.
Of course, Zheng Zongxue was not just trying to please, but more importantly, he was using Tang Taizong to encourage the emperor.
After the incident in the southern suburbs, these imperialists had higher and higher expectations for the emperor.
Zheng Zongxue asked for a while, but he couldn't push the envelope. After a while, he calmed down and got back to the business: "Although in recent years, most of the nobles who did not obey orders have been sent to the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army, but I am afraid that I will have to pay them for free.
Chase after the battalion officer..."
"The minister's strength has not been enough, but we still need a group of lieutenants. The generals can do their best to cooperate."
As the left staff officer of the Beijing camp, he can be said to be the current standing officer, with a humble but powerful position.
But after all, he is a civil servant, and his control is never enough to penetrate deep into the middle and lower levels.
Zhu Yijun did not say that I only wanted results, but expressed his understanding: "So, I plan to take advantage of the military parade to have a group of deputy generals, staff generals, guerrilla generals, and assisting attack generals attend class with me."
"At that time, I will show you my name as emperor and give you some advice."
Naturally, doing work for the deputy generals and generals was not all to pave the way for Zheng Zongxue to check his salary.
What's more, now that he is getting older, he has further needs to control the Beijing camp.
When the civil servants control the cabinet, courtiers, and generals, they need to go deep into the capital camp and have a deputy staff - one general per battalion, and a thirty battalion means thirty people, which is not too many.
Zheng Zongxue was startled: "Class?"
Zhu Yijun nodded and put down the bow in his hand: "Qi Jiguang, Yin Zhengmao, and Yu Dayou have all been leading troops in Zhejiang, Guangdong, Guangxi, and Fujian for a long time. Those who should be transferred must be transferred, and those who should be taken care of must be taken care of.
.”
"When I returned to Beijing to report on my duties, I happened to be assigned to the Beijing Wei Martial Arts School."
"After all... I have almost learned the Confucian classics, and it's time to study the martial arts classics."
Hearing this, Zheng Zongxue couldn't help but remind him: "Your Majesty, in recent years of Japan's civil war, more and more Japanese slaves have fled to our coasts every year. Now that all the commanders and soldiers along the coast are being transferred, it's better to be careful."
It’s not about how strong the Japanese pirates are in combat.
But this thing is just like black slaves, it is cheap, and it is extremely easy for the gentry in Zhejiang and Fujian to recruit them.
It would be bad if some people with ulterior motives deliberately cause trouble during the reassignment of commanders and military officers.
Zhu Yijun hummed and explained: "Governor Yin Zhengmao's errand has been sent to Zhang Xueyan. The affairs of Zhejiang and Fujian will be dealt with by Ding Anbo and Li Zaiting."
These are all things that have been considered for a long time.
The Shanghai Shipping Department and the Fujian Shipping Department are about to open ships and collect customs duties.
Delegating power is a last-minute necessity.
Therefore, Zhu Yijun not only handed over all the military and political power of Fujian province to the governor Li Zaiting, but also simply sent Gao Gong, the former chief minister, to Zhejiang to shine.
While the two were talking, Zhu Yijun suddenly caught a glimpse of Wei Chao leading Shen Shi walking over.
When Zhu Yijun saw this, he started to chase people away: "Let's do this for now. I will take time to inspect the capital camp before the end of the year. You will be my lieutenant general and prepare the files of the generals."
When Zheng Zongxue heard this, he immediately bowed and resigned.
When he turned around, he saw Shen Shixing, stepped aside and bowed his hands in greeting.
He bowed his head in return.
The two of them passed by each other.
Shen Shixing came to the emperor and bowed respectfully: "Your Majesty."
Zhu Yijun reluctantly gave up the idea of practicing sword practice and stood up on the spot.
Seeing this, Shen Shixing got straight to the point and said, "Your Majesty, can you postpone your visit to Shuntian Mansion for a while?"
Zhu Yijun frowned: "Suspension? Hasn't it been agreed before the daily meeting?"
Shen Shixing replied cautiously: "Your Majesty, the country is troubled, and more than a hundred court officials have been appointed to official positions. They have been very busy recently, and the Chang Dynasty cannot be separated from your Majesty's brave and decisive decision for a moment..."
Zhu Yijun waved his hand and interrupted the guy directly: "Shenge Lao Xini is on my head, right?"
Shen Shixing choked.
After he had no choice but to plead guilty, he finally told the truth: "Your Majesty, the new Yin Wang Zhiyuan of Shuntian Prefecture only arrived yesterday. He said that he wanted to familiarize himself with the affairs of the Yamen and was temporarily unavailable to accompany your Majesty."
"Hu Zhili, the governor of Shuntian, just came to the cabinet and said that His Majesty is visiting Shuntian Mansion. Some people in the prefectures and counties below are quite panicked. In order to avoid trouble by then, I hope that Your Majesty will take back the order."
"After Wang Zongyi took office as the Ministry of Rites, he also said that His Majesty's trip was frivolous and should never be..."
Zhu Yijun let go of his strength and staggered to his feet.
He couldn't help it anymore and tapped Shen Shixing with his finger: "Mr. Shen Ge, you and I, the monarch and the ministers, are one. The cabinet cannot always be convenient to the outside world. Instead, I am tied up."
Shen Shixing wanted to speak but stopped.
Zhu Yijun took the hot towel and wiped his sweat, looked at Shen Shixing, shook his head and said, "I have lived in the palace for a long time and have never seen the world."
"The heroic decisions you speak of are mostly based on my own judgment and forced decisions."
"That's all in the past. Nowadays, such a major matter of interfering in the country's foundation is to clear out the land. How can I continue to push back and stop me from even trying to spy on it?"
"Even if the cabinet wants to set an example for civil servants and make compromises in economic adjustments, it should still be able to reason with them and persuade them sincerely, so as to serve as a bridge between the superiors and the subordinates. How can people fall in whichever way the wind blows?"
Zhu Yijun educates the troublemakers with sincerity and sincerity.
Shen Shixing's intelligence is impeccable, but his temper is too soft.
It's okay to be bullied by the emperor, but he often compromises with the court officials. Who are you, Xiao Shen, hanging out with?
Shen Shixing felt helpless.
If only the emperor said it was as simple as that.
