Domineering Daming

Song Yingxing's eyes were shining brightly, and he spit flying all over the place. After talking for more than an hour, he finally said: "I have drawn up a manuscript, and I will distribute it in our hospital first. I will send it to the cabinet in person later. It must be published today, so that everyone in the world can read it." You can see our determination..."

Just as the group of people below opened their mouths to stop them, they immediately understood.The cabinet review is very strict. Song Yingxing's nonsense manuscript will definitely not pass the review, so there is no interest in disturbing him.

At the same time, the Epidemic Prevention Bureau, the International Trade Bureau, the Immigration Bureau, the Tai Hospital, and even the Clothes Bureau, etc., almost all the yamen in Daming were mobilized. There were constant meetings and various slogans were shouted loudly.

The entire capital is united like never before, and the harmony is like iron.

Those who are qualified, the newspapers are sent to the cabinet, and those who are not qualified also go to the six departments.This time is not only a good opportunity to show loyalty, but also to gain fame. Whether it is true or false, everyone is very caring and full of vitality at this time.

This is a powerful wave, sweeping across the capital, from north to south, from east to west.

Chapter 930

The entire capital city is like a steamer, steaming hotly. Even though there are snowflakes in the sky and the weather is getting colder, this hot wave is still surging in the capital city, like a fog like a tide, and it is difficult to dissipate in a short time.

Under the eaves of the main hall of the Fish and Algae Palace, Zhu Xu was flipping through today's freshly baked newspaper while eating.

"The cowhide is bigger than what I boast..."

Zhu Xu smiled, the corners of his eyes and brows were full of satisfaction, and the page in his hand was an article about the Royal Political Council written by Song Yingxing.

Although in the eyes of many people now, this is indeed whimsical bragging, deliberately flattering the court, but Zhu Xu does have such a long-term goal. One day, everyone in Ming Dynasty will be able to read!

Turning slowly, the other yamen have written a lot of plans, plans, and slogans, each of which is bigger than the other, which seems to be very imposing.

Zhu Xu shook his head, handed the newspaper to Cao Huachun and said, "That is to say, what the cabinet, six ministries, and the Royal Political Council wrote is more practical. The others are all nonsense and empty. Tell the cabinet, press it down, and do things pragmatically, you can't Make a fuss, ask them to formulate a detailed reform plan, and the cabinet will supervise and verify it from time to time, instead of writing an article and publishing it in a newspaper, it’s nothing, it fooled me.”

Cao Huachun took it over and said, "Yes."

Zhu Xu picked up the hot porridge in his hand, took a sip and said, "Is there anything else to do today?"

Cao Huachun took out a letter from his bosom, opened it, looked at it, and said: "Return to the emperor, Cao Bianjiao's melody has arrived, saying that the joint maritime fleet has been formed, currently there are forty ships and five thousand soldiers, and it is still going on." In the process of expansion, the construction of bases in various places has started one after another, which is quite smooth."

Zhu Xu nodded slightly, and said: "Well, he won't be able to return to Beijing this year, and the Cao family will give another place for the annual banquet."

"Yes." Cao Huachun wrote it down, and continued: "Liaodong reported that there was heavy snow everywhere, and many people had froze to death. Horqin requested to enter Shenyang or pass the winter."

"allow."

Zhu Xu picked up the steamed bun, tore off a small piece, and said, "Tell the Liaodong Prime Minister's Office that you can set aside a piece of land for Horqin to spend the winter for herdsmen, and minimize losses as much as possible. They are all my Ming people, so we can't favor one over another... custom made."

"Yes." Cao Huachun responded, looked at the notes again, and said: "Jiangsu reported that Jiangzuo scholars are raging, and the people are full of grievances. Please grant the right of temporary judgment."

Zhu Xu chewed on the steamed buns and didn't speak for a while.

Since he ascended the throne, the generals have offended Shilin severely, especially the most powerful group in the south of the Yangtze River. Even though the Donglin Party has been swept into the dustbin of history, it does not mean that they approve of Zhu Xu and the imperial court's treatment of them. Exploitation", "suppression", "bullying".

From time to time, some people will come out to criticize the imperial court, and they will follow Zhu Xu explicitly or secretly. The "unofficial alliance" on the Qinhuai River is constantly expanding. With a cavity of resentment, resolutely not official.

"Give!"

Zhu Xu tore another piece of steamed bun, and said: "Give them the right to make a temporary decision. Then tell Fang Kongxuan and others that the public opinion must be controlled, and we must use this opportunity in the capital to reverse the situation. The court cannot always be so passive. , We must step up publicity efforts, curb unbearable words, and prepare for the overall situation next year!"

"Yes." Cao Huachun responded, and said again: "The king of Bei'an and Nanping requested to restrain Dorgon, saying that Dorgon and Satsuma clan invaded Nanzhang and occupied many places. Nanzhang was unable to deal with it, and sent envoys." Come to the capital."

The southeast peninsula has been in constant war for nearly a hundred years. In addition, this small glacier is extremely weak and the military situation is unbearable. An opponent thanks to the joint efforts of artillery.

No matter what Dorgon and the others think of themselves and how they position their relationship with Daming, in Zhu Xu's eyes, Dorgon is just a shit-stirring stick, and he wants to stir it up in the southeast peninsula!

"Satsuma Fan is also involved?" Zhu Xu ate slowly, looked up at Cao Huachun and asked.

Cao Huachun leaned forward and said: "I have read the secret report of Jinyiwei. Huashan Jiushou should not have participated, but there are indeed many Japanese people in Dorgon's army. They carried some firearms and charged Jiannu to get gold. Silver treasures, food, women, etc., they did not return to the Wa country, but settled in the mansion in Nanan and Nansatsumo."

Zhu Xu understood in his heart that it should be those warriors, pirates, or rebels from the Japanese kingdom who fled to Nanannan during the series of anti-pirate operations in the Ming Dynasty, and were recruited and used by Dorgon.

Now the country of Wa is not peaceful. Although Ieyasu's family basically controls more than 100 vassal states in Wa country, each vassal state has different ideas. In addition, the Kyushu islanders are in chaos, and the eight countries are struggling to suppress it. Making money from the war caused Kyushu to become more and more corrupt. The Ieyasu family sent a special envoy to supervise the war, demanding that the civil unrest be extinguished as soon as possible.

If there is a group of people from the Wa Kingdom who establish a foothold in Bei'an and South, I am afraid that more and more people from the Wa Kingdom will pour in and continue to join Dorgon to strengthen his strength.

The corner of Zhu Xu's mouth moved slightly, revealing a slight smile.

Dorgon's strength is small, and it would be a good idea to have people from the Wa country help.

Zhu Xu beckoned, and after Cao Huachun came over, he said in a low voice: "Isn't there a lot of big pirates in the country of Wa? Let the Jin Yiwei be in the middle to connect with Dorgon, and sell the warriors in the country of Wa to Dorgon. Dagon... By the way, this matter is strictly confidential, and only a limited number of people know about it."

Cao Huachun looked slightly startled when he heard this, and immediately said: "Yes, the servant obeys the order."

Zhu Xu sat back, continued to eat, and said, "What else?"

Cao Huachun said: "In addition, there are about [-] Annan people in Dorgon's army, which are the main force to attack Nanzhang."

Zhu Xu's eyes moved slightly, this is also a common method used by the slave builders, so people don't need to care about this, and said: "Continue talking."

Cao Huachun lowered his head and glanced at the notes again, and said, "There are suspected plagues in Shanxi, Henan and other places, and the Epidemic Prevention Bureau has sent people there."

Zhu Xu paused, and then said: "It must be fast! Regardless of whether it is confirmed or not, it must be handled with caution. All measures must be in place and must not be allowed to spread. The Epidemic Prevention Bureau needs to increase investment. Research on the prevention and control of this epidemic cannot be slow..."

"Yes." Cao Huachun said, followed by a serious expression: "There have been some incidents in the Yunnan army recently, and the Jinyiwei suspects that someone may be plotting against them."

Zhu Xu twitched his brows fiercely, and said, "Zuo Liangyu?"

Cao Huachun stepped forward, bowed his body, and said in a low voice: "I'm not sure yet, but something is wrong in the army recently, and some people wrote some vague anonymous letters to the governor of Yunnan, the Ministry of War, and even King Ping. It’s here, but it may take years to transfer to the capital.”

Zhu Xu sandwiched a few slices of meat in the steamed bun, thinking while biting.

The reason for using Zuo Liangyu and placing him in Yunnan is to hope that he can subdue chieftains, aliens, and natives from all over Yunnan. Afterwards, these people will be the pioneers in pacifying the southeast peninsula under the leadership of Zuo Liangyu.From the looks of it now, the Zuo Zongbing must have seen something and had other thoughts.

After taking a few bites, Zhu Xu said: "He should be on his way to Beijing now, and no one in the south can stop him. How about this? Yang Sichang will continue to stay in the South China Sea. Next year, Lu Xiangsheng will go south to serve as the chief officer of the southern theater. In the beginning, I will keep Zuo Liangyu a little longer and give him enough time."

Cao Huachun said: "Yes."

Although there are nearly 20 court officers and troops in Zuo Liangyu in Yunnan, and there may be nearly [-] people from other races who are not in the establishment and cannot be verified, but Yunnan is not Liaodong, Zhu Xu is not Tianqi, and the current Ming Dynasty is not. Wanli year!

Even if Zuo Liangyu saw something or had something on his mind, he had to hide it carefully. Now is not the time for him to expose him. Zhu Xu didn't care much about it. Zuo Liangyu's [-] troops in the imperial court, Zuo Liangyu's plan On the contrary, being able to mobilize one-third is considered his ability!

Zhu Xu wouldn't take this matter to heart at all. No matter how stupid Zuo Liangyu was, he wouldn't rebel now. Like Dorgon, it's just a pawn he has played long ago, and he just waits for the time to come and play a role!

"Is there any more?" Zhu Xu calmly sipped his porridge and said.

Cao Huachun glanced at the note in his hand, put it in his arms, thought for a moment, and said: "Go back to the emperor, the cabinet has fixed the national anthem and the national flag, and they have already practiced outside Chengtianmen."

Zhu Xu said "Oh", and said with some surprise: "Really, why didn't you show it to me?"

Cao Huachun said: "This servant doesn't know, but Master Sun Baigu is doing this, so he must be very confident this time."

Zhu Xu thought about it, then laughed and said, "Well, I'll go and see for myself later."

Just as Cao Huachun was about to speak, Liu Shimin walked in quickly, holding a draft imperial decree, and said, "Your Majesty, the cabinet has already prepared Lu Xiangsheng's appointment, please seal it."
