Please, let me be a fool

"And it's not like you don't know, the general, but he has never seen the sea..."

Let a general who is used to the battle of the grassland.

Go to an unfamiliar place suddenly.

Even though they are all related to the military, the difference is indeed a bit big.

"In the coastal area, although pirates often attack, they are not frequent, and the number of them is not large."

"Furthermore, apart from my elder brother, Haizhou also has many generals who are good at water and sea warfare. Even if there is a big war, I think there will be no problem."

Zhao Lingying opened her mouth, suddenly recalling her childhood, and murmured: "Although brother, he has never seen the sea, but he has always yearned for it in his heart. I remember a long time ago, my brother would often hang up charts in the room, and there was something in his eyes. It's all light."

"What? Is there such a thing?" Cui Guo heard the words, his expression was full of confusion.

Just facing this question, Zhao Lingying didn't answer.

because of this.

It was also broken by myself inadvertently.

After all, my father is very strict. If I know that my brother still has such thoughts, I am afraid that something serious will happen.

But now, she only hopes that the other party still maintains an interest in looking at the chart.

Shaking her head, Zhao Lingying stopped thinking, but turned her head and said: "By the way, you don't want to call the general in the future. My brother is now the commander-in-chief of Haizhou. You should call the general, otherwise if you are heard by outsiders, you have to call him the general." trouble."

There is a strict division in the Great Wei Army, under the marshal is the general, and the rest can only be called generals at most.

"Yes, this servant understands." Cui Guo nodded upon hearing this.

Knowing that this kind of thing is actually not a big deal.

But if you really want to take it out, it's different.

The palace is no different than the outside, almost any unintentional words will be remembered.

Zhao Lingying didn't say much, and continued to walk towards her bedroom.

It's just that from Danfang to Jingde Palace, the way is to pass through the Compassion Palace.

Although hesitant, she still chose to pay her respects.

As for the process, it is still the same as before.

Say something about your health.

Empress Dowager Sun basically doesn't know how to manage the harem, and never says much.

This is what Zhao Lingying feels most at ease, she thinks the Queen Mother is good.

Of course, there is another reason for this.

That is the current harem.

There is only one concubine and one queen.

Zhao Lingying didn't like to cause trouble, and the empress Song Youwei was kind-hearted, so there was nothing messy about it.

But before leaving the Compassionate Peace Palace, she still heard the Empress Dowager say that she wanted to enrich the harem.

For this, Zhao Lingying felt a little displeased.

Share Your Majesty with the Empress.

In his heart, he was already a little jealous. If there were more people, he didn't know what would happen.

So when she walked out of the Compassionate Ning Palace, she looked a little unhappy, but she also knew that, as the Son of Heaven, even if His Majesty did not accept a concubine now, he would still need it in the future.

However, Cui Guo, who was always by his side, didn't think about this question, but suddenly remembered another thing, and immediately said: "Madam, I heard that the queen mother's cousin came to ask for an official a few days ago, and His Majesty directly gave a Where is the servant of the household department?"

"The servant has inquired, and the man is a direct descendant of the Sun family. He has been managing business for the family, and he was not born in the imperial examination."

"Tell me, why does Your Majesty let such a person be the servant of the household department?"

Even for eunuchs and maids in the palace.

The servant of the household department is also a senior official.

According to the normal situation, even if he is no longer selected among the six films, a qualified one will be promoted in the local area.

But now, let a businessman do it, and he is also a member of the Sun family of Yandi...

"I know what you said."

Zhao Lingying heard the words, and immediately said: "The courtiers have also signed up for the past few days and objected to this matter, but I refuted them all. Your Majesty's promotion of Sun Kejian naturally has His Majesty's reason."

"Perhaps, His Majesty wants to use this to strengthen the control over the land of Yan. After all, Sun Kejian is the direct descendant of the Sun family."

"And now King Yan is also using the power in his hands to integrate the forces in Yan."

"Okay, hurry back to the palace, there are still many memorials that have not been processed."

About Sun Kejian.

Zhao Lingying didn't think too much.

I just feel that His Majesty may have begun to control Yandi.

Of course, she thought there was a deeper reason, but she just couldn't figure it out.

And now Zhao Lingying is also annoyed by the Queen Mother's words about enriching the harem, and doesn't want to continue thinking.

Cui Guo pouted, but did not continue speaking.

that's it.

Time passed little by little.

After the Yushufang meeting, it was decided to let Marquis Shenwu take charge of the expedition.

This decision was also directly drafted by the cabinet on the same day, and announced to the courtiers and the world.

Informing the courtiers is to let them know what to do.

And the notice to the people means that the Marquis of Shenwu will go out in person to stabilize the hearts of the people.

The six ministries also began their own busy work. The Ministry of Households allocated food and funds, the Ministry of Industry prepared weapons, and the most important thing was the Ministry of War, coordinating the garrison in the north.

Facts have proved that once a powerful dynasty is in operation, especially under the emperor's order, the action is very terrible.

It took almost less than a day, and everything was ready.

Shenwuhou was also on the second day, ready to go, and sent his troops to the north!

Bingfeng pointed directly at the northern grassland!

But he didn't bring many people with him.

It's nothing more than some folks transporting grain and thousands of soldiers.

After all, the northern border, where the expedition is going this time, is too far away from the capital, and there are too many people, not to mention it will take a long time, and it will also cost a lot of money.

Another point is that whether it is Zhenbeiguan or the northern provinces, there are garrisons. If there are not enough people at that time, they can be mobilized directly from the nearest place.

Of course, there is the most important point, which is to send the army out.

Under normal circumstances, the emperor will come forward to boost morale.

But obviously.

For such a troublesome thing, Wei Yunyi would not do it at all, so he simply let Zhang Zhengming forget it.

The other party is the Taifu, who once served as a military adviser.

Whether it is status or prestige, it is completely sufficient.

As for the officials from the other six ministries, a few also went there, but the Shang Shu and several academicians did not show up.

Because today, apart from the fact that Marquis Shenwu is going on an expedition, it is also time for the imperial meeting.

Those who want to participate must prepare beforehand.

And Zhang Zhengming also knows today's day.

So after sending the army to the expedition.

He hurried to the palace.

However, he had just entered the Wenhua Palace, but he did not see any other cabinet scholars. Obviously, they should not have arrived yet.

But not long after, Song Gongwen rushed over, holding a thick booklet in his hand, which was obviously about the family income.

The reason why I wrote so much is because Wei Yunyi couldn't help but feel a little flustered when he was in the imperial study when discussing the matter of the Northern Territory last time. Once again, but I still feel a little worried.

When he walked into the Imperial Study Room and saw Zhang Zhengming, his eyes immediately brightened.

I feel the need to ask my teacher.

Immediately.

Without any hesitation, Song Gongwen walked forward and said, "Teacher, the student has a question..."

"Teacher? What teacher?" But the next moment, Zhang Zhengming raised his eyebrows, narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "How many times have I told you that when you are in the cabinet, you have to be called Taifu!"

The relationship between the two is private, and they don't deal with each other on the surface.

What would other people think if they heard this name?

It will definitely affect the follow-up plan.

"Yes Yes Yes!"

Song Gongwen also realized this, and immediately said: "Teacher, I have a question."

Hearing this, Zhang Zhengming's expression softened slightly, and he said, "I know what you want to say, right?"

"I also noticed that His Majesty ignored you last time. You are really serious about the official documents. What was the situation at that time? The Zhenbei Pass was in an emergency, and the border guards were killed or injured. Does Your Majesty still want to listen to you?"

That's it!

Hearing this, Song Gongwen suddenly realized.

Recalling it, I found that I did not pay attention to the occasion.

After thinking about these things clearly, he also breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "As long as your majesty is not angry with me, it's fine, Tai Tuo, this is the next plan for the implementation of the allocation of land into the mu, and I have already planned all aspects, you See if there is any problem?"

"Of course you won't have any problems doing things." Zhang Zhengming paused, and continued: "However, I still want to remind you that I will object to this in the next imperial meeting."

"At that time, you must argue with me, so that His Majesty will accept your opinion, and this is the best opportunity to establish prestige for His Majesty, understand?"

Zhang Zhengming has said this question many times.

Because it is the top priority of his plan and the most important goal in the second half of his life.

Although Song Gongwen felt sorry for the teacher, he also knew that it must be so.

So in the end, he didn't speak, just nodded.

"correct."

At this time, Zhang Zhengming continued: "The pilot reform has been successful. If you want to carry it out next, you will surely gain the support of the people. With Shou Yuan's help, it will go much smoother. Your focus is to continue to implement the reform. "

"What's more, it is to handle the affairs of the household department well. Today, the old Hou Ye is going to go to war. You must have seen it. The household department now has a lot of accounts that are not clear."

"That's right, I noticed it." Song Gongwen said: "Especially the national treasury, I'm afraid it will be completely empty after this war."

To run a country, money is used almost everywhere.

And war is the most costly.

Although there is still some silver in the household department.

But the most important thing is the follow-up consumption. If hundreds of thousands of troops move, the money is simply not forbidden.

"Teacher, I suddenly remembered." Song Gongwen thought for a while, and said again: "Some time ago, His Majesty appointed a servant for my subordinates, named Sun Kejian, who is the queen mother's cousin. I haven't seen him yet. Come on, does Taifu know this person?"

Suddenly there was one more person under his command, and he didn't know until he came back.

If it's another time, he doesn't have to care about it at all.

Just do what should be done.

But the problem is.

That person is the cousin of the Empress Dowager Sun, who is a direct descendant of the Sun family, so it is different, you have to find out.

"The people of the Sun family, except for the old patriarch, I don't know much about others." Zhang Zhengming thought for a while, and said: "However, I heard that when this person took care of the family business, he lost several hundred thousand yuan. Two silver, come to think of it, this person can't do it..."
