Malicious Medical Princess of the Marquis House

Chen Dachang wanted someone, but Gu Jiu gave it to others.

She told Deng Cunli, Choose a dozen trustworthy people and go south with Eunuch Chen.

Deng Cunli nodded and took the order, According to my wife's instructions, we have been paying attention to those refugees these years. We have selected about 300 boys worthy of training. This time, can we send these refugees to the south of the Yangtze River?

Gu Jiu nodded, then shook his head again, Not enough. I will give you fifteen places, eight of which will be given to refugees, and the other three will be nominated by Er Zhuang. For the remaining four, I want you to choose from the Shaofu.

Deng Cunli was surprised, he could understand leaving three places for Er Zhuang.

He and Er Zhuang are equivalent to Gu Jiu's two arms in the capital.

He is in charge of construction, and Er Zhuang is in charge of business. Check and balance each other, supervise each other, and compete with each other at the same time.

Gu Jiu was willing to give him eight places because the talents selected from the refugees urgently needed opportunities to practice.

But what is the purpose of leaving four places for the Shaofu?

Deng Cunli asked in a low voice: Are we going to cooperate with the Shaofu?

Gu Jiu laughed, Of course not. I told you to go to the Shaofu to pick someone, to pick a craftsman. I will go to the Shaofu's family order to have tea in person. After the negotiation is completed, you will go to the Shaofu to be the prisoner and choose me. People. This time I want two ironsmiths and two shipwrights.

Ship craftsmen, Deng Cunli can understand.

Ironsmith, is your wife planning to forge iron?

Gu Jiu didn't explain, These two blacksmiths are of great use to me. You'd better bring the credentials of the four craftsmen out of the Shaofu.

She didn't want to wait for the master craftsmen to produce results, but let Shaofu eat ready-made ones.

She and Shaofu have always cooperated happily, but it is not an unconditional cooperation.

Deng Cunli took the order, The old slave will carefully select craftsmen to live up to my wife's expectations. Eunuch Chen hopes to bring his godson and grandson to Jiangnan. Do you want to help him?

Gu Jiu nodded, You go to see him and give me a list. I will find a way to bring his godson and grandson out of the palace.

Deng Cunli was a little worried, I'm afraid this matter will not be easy to handle. Do you want His Highness to come forward?

Your Highness doesn't need to come forward. The Shaofu's family order can also be fulfilled, and the name is justified.

The Shaofu was in charge of the eunuchs in the palace,

It is the responsibility of the Shaofu to deploy manpower. She wanted a few unremarkable eunuchs in the palace, so the Shaofu would not make things difficult for her.

Deng Cunli acted quickly, and sent the list of Chen Dachang's godsons and grandsons to Gu Jiu that night.

Chen Dachang named ten names, but he was actually satisfied with four.

He focused on four people, Gu Jiu had heard the names but didn't understand them.

It is most convenient to ask Qian Fu about this.

He knows all the people in the palace who have names and surnames and who have been in the top.

Gu Jiu invited Qian Fu to comment on the list that Chen Dachang circled.

Qian Fu was not polite, and directly picked up the red pen to circle the two names, These two people are treacherous. In the past, Eunuch Chen was able to restrain these two people as a servant, supervisor, and supervisor. I am afraid that it is not possible now. The old slave suggested that these two people should be removed. person's name.

Gu Jiu was noncommittal, What about the others?

This person is kind and righteous, this person is not cunning enough, this person is ruthless...

Qian Fu commented one by one, and Gu Jiu selected four people to ration to Chen Dachang.

There are ruthless people, there are also cunning people, and of course there must be people who are affectionate, righteous and conscientious.

With all the personnel, all that remains is to fish people out of the palace.

Gu Jiu sent a message to the Shaofu family order, wanting to invite him to drink tea.

Unexpectedly, the Minister of the Ministry of War came to the door first.

I know Mrs. Zhao is pregnant and it's inconvenient to go out, so I came here with the audacity to not know what to do. Please forgive me, Mrs. Zhao.

Gu Jiu entertained Minister of the Ministry of War in the flower hall, Your Excellency, you are welcome! Your Excellency can come, and the plants will shine. Please drink tea, Your Excellency.

Minister of the Ministry of War, a sixty-year-old man, laughs and looks like a Maitreya Buddha. But he didn't know that this man was also a murderous general who led the army, and he came from a family of generals.

Over the years, as a minister, he has cultivated his body and cultivated his character, hiding the smell of blood all over his body, and becoming a bit more Buddha-nature.

In Liu Zhao's words, this is an angry-eyed King Kong. When it comes to killing people, he is never soft.

Of course, this person is also very defensive.

He often fights with Dali Temple, Yushitai, and Hubu.

Dali Temple and Yushitai, if there is nothing to do, they will find trouble with the soldiers. They are impeached today and impeached tomorrow, and they will not stop for three hundred and sixty days a year.

The Minister of the Ministry of War is also welcome, ah!

Everyone is an old jerk from the imperial court, afraid of shit!

His actions offended many people, but he also won the support of the generals and soldiers of the world.

In these years, the Ministry of War committed several major crimes, but he was able to hold the position of Minister of the Ministry of War, which is inseparable from his prestige in the army.

As for the fight with the Ministry of Household Affairs, it was naturally for money.

The Ministry of Households wanted to reduce the expenses of the Ministry of War, and the Minister of the Ministry of War rolled up his sleeves and beat him without saying a word.

Under his leadership, everyone in the Ministry of War has a bandit spirit. Fighting in the courtroom has never been cowardly.

Even if you lose in the end, you won't lose if you lose.

When dealing with such a soldier-like and wise Minister of the Ministry of War, Gu Jiu simply cut to the chase.

My lord condescends to come to me, and I don't know why?

Minister of the Ministry of War laughed, and put down his teacup, Mrs. Zhao, we have cooperated several times, and the cooperation is quite pleasant. I heard that you plan to start a courier business this time to deliver goods and letters. Is this true?

Gu Jiu pursed her lips and smiled, My lord is indeed well informed. This matter is still in preparation, so I'll let my lord know about it.

Minister of the Ministry of War laughed, stroked his beard, and said with a smile: How about we cooperate again?

How to cooperate? Gu Jiu became interested.

The Secretary of the Ministry of War considered and said: You want to use veterans. I have a large list of veterans here. You can choose from them. In terms of personnel, I guarantee that you will be satisfied. The only condition is that I hope Mrs. Zhao can open more postal routes.

Gu Jiu thought for a while, It's not impossible to open a few more postal routes at once, the key is where to go?

The Secretary of the Ministry of War is very straightforward: Go to the northwest, go to the northeast, go to the east of the river. How?

These three roads are all related to the border defense of Da Zhou.

It is not difficult to understand that Minister of the Ministry of War wants to open postal services to these three routes.

but……

The imperial court has an official post, why did your lord choose to cooperate with me? The documents of the Ministry of War are delivered by private express, which is against the rules.

The rules are determined by people. As long as Mrs. Zhao agrees to cooperate, I will talk to your majesty. I even want to merge the post station under the Ministry of War into my wife's express business.

Gu Jiu waved her hands repeatedly.

joke.

She doesn't want those people in the station.

All of them are uncles, they eat and take cards, and they have stinking problems.

She prefers to recruit newcomers who are innocent and have no bad habits.

However, Gu Jiu thought about it again. In the history of later generations, there was a postman who worked as a public servant. Because of the financial constraints of the imperial court, the post station was abolished and he lost his job.

The postman lost his job, and instead of looking for another job, he started a rebellion. In the end it worked.

Although he had only been emperor for a few dozen days, he did overthrow a dynasty.

Tsk!

Unemployed civil servants, the consequences are very serious!

Your Excellency is cooperating with me. This is to grab the job of the station below. Don't you worry about the people below making trouble?

But the Minister of the Ministry of War asked, Madam, do you know why I want to cooperate with you?

Gu Jiu said, I would like to hear the details.

The Minister of the Ministry of War lowered his voice, Madam, I don't want to hide it. The cost of the post station under the Ministry of War has increased year by year, which has brought a great burden to the Ministry of War. The Ministry of Finance is still unwilling to spend more money, which is annoying.

Especially those officials passing by, eating and drinking for free, and finally the post station took the bill to our Ministry of War for reimbursement, and our Ministry of War can only ask the Ministry of Accounts.

The expenses for officials traveling to and from the lodging station are fixed, but many officials are not aware of it and always ask for more than their status. The post station didn't dare to offend people, so it could only try its best to satisfy.

However, the Ministry of Household Affairs has never acknowledged these extra expenses, and asked our Ministry of War to bear them ourselves. Year after year, even the clay sculpture of the Buddha is still a bit angry.

This official has thought about dismantling the post station, but as the post station is an important office for the resettlement of veterans, once it is abolished, I am afraid that some people in the army will cause trouble. This year, the station is already too big to lose.

This time, I want to take advantage of my wife's opportunity to open a courier, first to accommodate some veterans, and second, to reduce the burden on the Ministry of War. If possible, it would be best to earn some money and spend it.

When Gu Jiu heard this, she bared her teeth.

She was 100% sure that the Minister of War was not telling the truth.

It is true that the identity station in front is too big to lose, and the expenses have increased sharply. Even the subsequent reduction of the burden on the Ministry of War and placement of veterans is true.

But Master Shangshu is telling the truth, half of what he says is half of what he says.

Gu Jiu is sure that the Minister of the Ministry of War asked him to cooperate not for express delivery, but for the Ministry of Households and all the officials in the court.

The cost of the post station was eaten by the officials in the past.

The Secretary of the Ministry of War is obviously holding back his big move, and wants to settle accounts after the fall and completely reform the operation mode of the post station.

Maybe they want to force the Ministry of Households to compensate the Ministry of War for a sum of money.

Gu Jiu shook her head secretly, the Minister of Military Affairs had a good intention.

Yet she didn't think it was possible to succeed.

Unless you set a few small goals first, it is possible to succeed.

Gu Jiu asked: How does your lord plan to talk to His Majesty about this matter? How can you guarantee to convince His Majesty?

The Minister of the Ministry of War smiled narrowly.

The expression of the sixty-year-old man makes people laugh.

Mrs. Zhao should know His Majesty very well. What His Majesty cares most about is money. Do you think there are ways to save money?

Liu Zhao was speechless.

The Minister of the Ministry of War has caught Emperor Wende's Achilles heel.

Gu Jiu thought for a while and said, As long as Your Majesty can convince His Majesty, I will cooperate with the Ministry of War. I can even try to arrange some post station personnel. The premise is to go through training and pass the qualifications before taking up the post.

I understand. It's like a tollbooth, isn't it?

Exactly!

With the on-the-job training model of the toll station, it is indeed much more convenient. Once it is said, everyone understands it, and there is no need to explain it.
