Domineering Daming

Sun Chengzong's words got to the point. If Jiannu wanted to go south, Liaodong was the first choice. Bypassing Shanhaiguan and laboring on an expedition, he could only sneak attack once, which was not the best policy.

Qin Liangyu looked at it for a while, and then said to Zhu Xu: "Your Majesty, the Chahar tribe has been defeated, the Mongols have been defeated, and the Tatars are unable to go south. They might as well withdraw from the four towns of Shanxi, Datong, Xuanfu, and Jizhou."

This sentence surprised everyone present. The most central of the four towns is the capital!

Without waiting for others to speak, Zhu Xu said, "Mr. Qin continued."

Qin Liangyu picked up the slender wooden stick on the side, and said: "Your Majesty, these four towns stretch for hundreds of miles and seem to be indestructible. Among the nine borders, they are the densest and have the largest military strength. I believe that unless there is a change in the military strength, the establishment of slaves will be impossible." We will not take this as a breakthrough point, Yulin and Ningxia are too far away, and Liaodong cannot be broken. Therefore, instead of discussing whether it is possible for Jiannu to bypass Shanhaiguan, it is better to give them a chance!"

This sentence stunned everyone in the room.

Sun Chengzong, Sun Chuanting and others looked at each other in blank dismay. This General Qin is really bold, he dared to risk the capital!

But what she said was reasonable and in line with the art of war, exposing their previous blind spots.

Zhu Xu was also startled, and looked up at Qin Liangyu in astonishment.

He remembered, it seems that in history, Huang Taiji was given a chance because the troops near Xifengkou were mobilized.Qin Liangyu really surprised and pleasantly surprised him.

Qin Liangyu looked at the whole room looking at her, especially Zhu Xu's expression, his expression moved slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, although this method is a bit risky, it is the safest strategy."

Zhu Xu didn't speak, turned to look at Sun Chengzong and the others, and said, "What do you think?"

Sun Chengzong, Sun Chuanting and the others looked at each other, pondered for a while and said: "The words of General Qin are not unreasonable. They can indeed save a lot of unnecessary trouble, and they can also take the opportunity to rectify the towns in the north."

Zhu Xu nodded, straightened up, and said solemnly: "Okay, you should plan in detail, and make sure everything is safe. The cavalry who established slaves must not cross the Great Wall for fifty miles!"

All the generals raised their hands and said, "Observe the order."

With the addition of Qin Liangyu, Zhao led the cavalry, and Zhu Xu was also relieved. No matter what Huang Taiji's idea was, he was full of confidence and could temporarily turn his energy to pass.

At the same time, Qian Qianyi and Wen Tiren were sitting in the carriage, had already passed Yangzhou Mansion, and were heading towards Yingtian Mansion.

The curtains of the carriage had already been raised, and both of them fanned desperately.

Both of them were big fat men, wiping the hot sweat off their faces from time to time, their eyes shone with restrained eyes.

The relationship between the two is not bad, not to mention hosting the township examination together this time.

Wen Tiren leaned against the wall of the room, looked outside and said with a smile: "Master Qian, have you noticed that our journey is very peaceful?"

Qian Qianyi is from Jiangnan, but he has been back and forth several times, and said with a smile: "Lord Wen doesn't know something. Although this road construction team belongs to the Ministry of Industry, its personnel are either downsized soldiers or have undergone special training. You Seeing them not far away, there are swords and guns. Everywhere they go, they first suppress bandits with the local area, and then build roads. Every road is a road to suppress bandits..."

Wen Tiren looked outside, his fat face showed no expression, but his heart became more and more clear about the situation in the capital.

Not only the power of the imperial court is concentrated to the emperor, but also the power of the local government. The governor is in charge of the military affairs of the whole province, and those who control them are firmly under the command of the Ministry of War.Local government affairs are also undergoing changes. Not to mention Jiangsu, he also sees things clearly in Shandong. The abolition of the procuratorate and the chief secretary and merger with the governor's office is also an unprecedented concentration of power.

Before this, the emperor had already replaced the guard system and controlled the soldiers and horses of the whole country. With such power, he was afraid that he would catch up with Taizu Chengzu.

Wen Tiren is a smart and ambitious person, this trip to the south is the best springboard for him to advance!

Whether it's Qian Qianyi or Wen Tiren, both of them are from the big families in the south of the Yangtze River, and they have both been famous before. What's more, now they are both ministers of the Ministry of Rites, presiding over this year's provincial examination!

Before the two of them arrived at Ying Tian Mansion, Ying Tian Mansion was already full of people who would cleanse them up, everyone was full of enthusiasm and eagerly looking forward to it.

In the capital, Jiang Dejing and Shi Feng have not been idle in the past few days, and the banquets have never been cut off. Although they keep talking about it, it will be fair and just, but there are more and more people at the banquets, even Qian Longxi, believe The king's threshold was almost broken.

The imperial examination has always been a big event, not to mention the capital city, the eyes of the entire Ming Dynasty were attracted by this imperial examination.This is the first imperial examination in the Chongzhen Dynasty, and it is a weather vane. Everyone wants to know the selection criteria for the new emperor and how the court selects and employs people.

Chapter 382 Zhu Youjian's Mind

The eyes of the entire Ming Dynasty were attracted by this imperial examination, and Wen Zhaoge was also doing its best to do a good job in this matter.

The thirteen chief secretaries of the Ming Dynasty were involved, the scope involved was wide, the number of officials involved, and the energy contained in it was beyond everyone's expectations.

From the capital to the localities, from outside the palace to inside the palace, everyone is involved.Even Cao Huachun and Liu Shimin were given gifts and banquets.

Zhu Youjian has been busy with this matter for a while, and while he is dizzy, he also fully understands the feeling of mastering power.

He appointed and dismissed more than 30 fifth-rank officials in one go, and all the ministers in the capital seemed to obey him, feeling an unprecedented sense of comfort in their hearts.

Zhu Youjian kept demanding power from Zhu Xu, except for the Ministry of Rites, Hanlin Academy, Guozijian, Gongyuan, school inspectors, and academic administration were all dispatched, appointed and dismissed by Wen Zhaoge.

Wenzhao Pavilion is busy, full of people.

In Wang Xin's classroom, Fan Jingwen stood in front of Zhu Xu with a respectful expression.

Zhu Youjian sat there, carefully looking at the memorabilia in his hand. It was written by Fan Jingwen, and it was strictly forbidden to be reasonable and detailed.

After a while, Zhu Youjian closed the memorial book in his hand, looked up at him, and said with a smile: "Fan Qing's ability has impressed me a lot. The arrangement of the imperial examination this time, thanks to Fan Qing, made me feel relieved." few."

Fan Jingwen raised his hand and said cautiously: "My lord is too famous."

Zhu Youjian put his hands on the table, looked at Fan Jingwen with admiration, and said: "Not long ago, Master Ye wrote to the emperor, recommending you to be the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, and the emperor also agreed. I can transfer you there, you come from Wenzhao Pavilion, don't let me down..."

Fan Jingwen bowed and said: "My lord, don't worry, I will do my best and never forget my lord's cultivation."

Zhu Youjian looked at Fan Jingwen, feeling rather surprised.Although Fan Jingwen was recommended by Ye Xianggao, he had never paid much attention to Wen Zhaoge's Zhongshu. It was also mentioned by Jingyang Palace this time. Steady and sharp.

Zhu Youjian nodded in satisfaction, and said: "Well, I trust Fan Qing's ability very much. The next step is to mark the papers. Be sure to keep an eye on it, and don't be careless."

"Yes, don't worry, my lord." Fan Jingwen responded.

After some courtesies with Zhu Youjian, he walked out of Zhu Youjian's classroom.

Zhu Youjian watched Fan Jingwen go out, and the smile on his face gradually faded.

The prefect of Shuntian Prefecture is half a chip higher than the chief envoy of a province, not to mention that he is still the key point of the Ming Dynasty, the parent official of the capital, this position is extraordinary, he is not the emperor's confidant, and will never be appointed.

He didn't know if Fan Jingwen belonged to Zhu Xu, but he was still very happy that Fan Jingwen could be the governor of Shuntian Mansion. At least Zhu Xu revealed a signal to the outside world: "The emperor has great trust in Wenzhao Pavilion!"

This is extremely important!

He stood up, walked to the door, and looked at a group of busy people outside through the crack of the door.

Qian Longxi, Shi Fenglai, Zhou Yanru...

These people were carefully selected by him. He thought they were all pillars of governance, but he didn't expect that they were all mediocre, ineffective, and ineffective.

His eyes turned back and forth, and finally landed on Shi Fenglai, and he nodded imperceptibly.

Inside the imperial study.

Zhu Xu drank his tea and looked at Lu Wang, Li Jingbai and Yan Mingtai who were returning to Beijing with a smile.

"Tell me how things are going," Zhu Xu said.

Lu Wang Zhu Shouhong glanced at Li Jingbai and the two, raised his hand and said: "Back to the emperor, all the yamen, magistrates, and county magistrates in Shandong have been cleaned up, and all the officials have been filled. As long as it takes a while, I believe it will be stable. All right."
