Zhu Xu and his entourage strolled into Donghua Gate, accompanied by Cao Huachun and Wang Wensheng.
Wang Wensheng wanted to speak and stopped, and he didn't say anything when he wanted to open his mouth several times.
Walking into the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Xu put Xiao Ciye in his bedroom and turned back to the Dongnuan Pavilion.
"Your Majesty."
Wang Wensheng followed up, as if he had made a lot of determination.
"You want to go out and lead the troops?"
Zhu Xu sat in the desk and picked up the teacup casually.
Wang Wensheng stood in front of Zhu Xu and said, "Yes, the minister still wants to lead the troops, open up territory for the emperor, and strengthen my Ming!"
” Zhu Xu took a sip of tea, shook his head with a smile, and said, "What about the huge Forbidden City?"
” Wang Wensheng saw Zhu Xu shaking his head, his heart sank slightly, he didn't dare to argue, and said, "The ministers are just a temporary idea......
Zhu Xu shook his head again, thought for a while, and said: "Cao Bianjiao's combined fleet has been formed for more than a year, and it is almost on the right track, although he is my close minister, from the Forbidden City, but after all, his status is not enough, I plan to let you replace him, how about it?"
” Wang Wensheng is the empress of Emperor Shenzong, the nephew of Empress Wang, and Empress Wang is Zhu Xu's grandmother, so the two are cousins, so Wang Wensheng is barely a clan relative, and he is prominent in the eyes of outsiders.
Wang Wensheng wanted to lead the troops, but he had only heard about the army, the combined fleet, and he didn't understand it at all, and he was stunned for a while when he heard Zhu Xu's words.
Zhu Xu saw Wang Wensheng's expression, shook his head again, and said, "Before you go, go to the military academy for two months, study hard, and when this 'military reform' is completed, you generals, from top to bottom, must educate me again......"
Wang Wensheng's expression stiffened, Zhu Xu said this, and the matter of him going to the combined fleet could not be changed.
The next few decades will be the era of world discoveries, great colonization, and the age of the sea, and whoever can get the right to control the sea will be able to lead the world!
This 'Combined Fleet' is a powerful tool that looks the most gentle, but is the most domineering, saves time, effort, and worry and can achieve its goals!
Of course, this combined fleet is only one of the tools.
"Don't cry so much," Zhu Xu said with a smile: "Stay in the military academy for two months first, if you really don't like it, I will change it for you." ” Wang Wensheng dared not to like it, and said repeatedly, "The minister doesn't dislike it, the minister must conscientiously perform the things assigned by the emperor!"
” Zhu Xu didn't care what he thought in his heart, and said: "First go and be Cao Bianjiao's deputy for a year, you must study carefully, watch carefully, and have a global vision, you are my cousin, and you went out from the Forbidden City, you can't always go around Daming, take a good look at this world, what kind of benefits can it bring to me and Daming, more benefits!"
These, when Cao Changjiao arrives in Beijing the day after tomorrow, you all have to go to the military courtyard to stay for a while. ” The corners of Wang Wensheng's mouth moved, and he had to say: "Yes, the minister obeys the order." ” Zhu Xu waved his hand to send him away, such a good errand, in the future, the merits will inevitably come from the sea, this person is still so reluctant.
Saying that it was getting late, Zhu Xu looked outside and brought the notebook on the table.
The first thing that catches your eye is the cabinet, with the title of 'The Great Ming Officials System', followed by a sub-heading 'Trial Strategy'.
These are all learned from him, Zhu Xu smiled and opened it to look.
This recital is obviously from Bi Ziyan's hand, with a glance and a glance, and even the tone is his.
This recital was a little heavy, and Zhu Xu didn't look at it for long, his expression changed slightly, and he looked at it more and more seriously.
Bi Ziyan adhered to his consistent ideas and wrote a lot of things.
'Focusing on the imperial examination, the system of selecting officials, such as inspection, filial piety and honesty, and external supplementation, builds a strict, detailed, and hierarchical supervision system to ensure the long-term clarity of the Ming Dynasty'......
'The imperial examination is the main way for me to select officials in the Ming Dynasty, but it is not the only way, resolutely abandon the erroneous concept of studying as an official, and encourage scholars to engage in other professions......
'Expand the scope of the imperial examination, further relax the age, encourage practical reading, and have a correct and objective understanding of the sage scriptures'......
'Prosperity and Ming Wenzhi, with the goal of 'no cold scholars in the world', establish a comprehensive and perfect education system, and strive to ensure that no one in the Ming Dynasty is illiterate and no one can write within 5......0 years' 'Sternly reaffirm the discipline of the Ming officials, ensure that the court is honest, upright, and dedicated to the people, and put an end to all corrupt behaviors......
'Strictly control the entry and exit of officials, strictly require that those who enter and exit cleanly, and those who leave are clean, and strictly investigate corruption......
Zhu Xu looked at it almost word by word, with a serious expression.
The most important reason for the gradual decline of a country to a change of dynasty is the overall corruption of the bureaucratic system, so that it is irretrievable.
In the late Ming Dynasty in history, from the beginning of Chongzhen to the end of the Southern Ming Dynasty, there were many capable ministers and officials, so why couldn't they continue the Ming Dynasty?
One of the reasons is that the bureaucracy as a whole is corrupted, and no one can do anything in the face of a huge mountain of corrupt bureaucrats.
Bi Ziyan's book, from entering the office to Zhishi, a complete set has a detailed plan, many of which are Bi Ziyan, or people of insight want to do, can wait until today, many people are very happy, get what they want, and have more vision for the future.
Naturally, there are still a lot of Zhu Xu's private goods in it.
Zhu Xu looked at this recital for about an hour, then picked up the pen, took the note, and wrote his comments on it.
Such a recital often goes several times between the cabinet and the Qianqing Palace, representing the 'confrontation' between the emperor and the outer court.
In the past, most of it was the outer court victory, and now, most of it is Zhu Xusheng.
After the approval was over, Zhu Xu looked at it, and he was still a little unsatisfied, and always felt that some words were not written thoroughly, but they could not be expressed in writing, and they needed to be discussed face-to-face.
"I need to go to the cabinet as soon as possible."
Zhu Xu said to himself, because of a series of recent events, Zhu Xu has not been to the cabinet room for a long time.
Zhu Xu closed the notebook and picked up the next one.

Cao Huachun stood not far away, holding his hands and lowering his eyes, as if he was asleep.
This is his state of 'work', expressing his 'indifference' to everything.
Qin Liangyu, Ma Xianglin, and Zhang Fengyi were already packing their luggage at this time, and they were ready to leave Beijing tomorrow.
Ma Xianglin and Zhang Fengyi looked at each other, Zhang Fengyi stepped forward and said, "Mother, my husband and I want to stay in the capital." ” Ma Xianglin looked at Qin Liangyu with some restraint, he was in awe of this mother.
After all, Qin Liangyu is in her sixties, although she seems to be strong, but in the capital, such a high-intensity discussion is really unbearable, she looked at Ma Xianglin and Zhang Fengyi, and said, "You plan to stay in the capital?"
What are you going to do?
” Ma Xianglin's current position is the deputy chief soldier, and he has not always followed Qin Liangyu, but has fought everywhere in the Ming Dynasty, and has followed many general soldiers.
Even Zhang Fengyi is too, the husband and wife get together less and leave more, and most of the time they are in the barracks.
Qin Liangyu didn't mean to strictly manage his son and daughter-in-law, but he was a little worried.
She has been in the capital for less than half a month, but she knows the depth of the imperial court.
Zhang Fengyi was also in awe of Qin Liangyu, and said, "Mother, my husband and I plan to go to the military academy for a year first. ” Qin Liangyu looked slightly stunned, glanced at the two of them, and said, "Did someone recruit you?"
” Zhang Fengyi glanced at Ma Xianglin, hesitated, and said, "Yes."
This morning, Gonggong Liu came to see us, and the emperor ...... intends to let Fujun take over as the commander of the forbidden army and take charge of the defense of the Forbidden City. ” Qin Liangyu's face sank suddenly, his eyes were as sharp as a sword, and he said categorically: "No!"
” Ma Xianglin and Zhang Fengyi stood in front of Qin Liangyu, their faces were condensed, and there was no squeak.
They are not stupid, at least they still have political sensitivity.
Qin Liangyu has commanded more than 200,000 elite troops in the land of Shaanxi and Sichuan for many years, and has won deep trust, although there are many voices in the imperial court, they have all been suppressed by the emperor.
Such a 'general' with a heavy army in his hands has always been suspicious, and they need to be cautious in their actions.
At this time, the emperor actually handed over the defense of the Forbidden City to Ma Xianglin, what a trust!
How frightening!
Excluding the thoughts of those emperors who have no way to guess, trust is one thing, what they are going to do is another!
If Ma Xianglin really takes over as the commander of the forbidden army, I'm afraid that their Ma family will not be far from destroying the family!
Ma Xianglin naturally knew in his heart that the situation was obscure, and he didn't know how many people wanted to see their Ma family fall, and even Bi Ziyan, Sun Chengzong, etc., had already mentioned it to his mother Qin Liangyu and even their husband and wife, either openly or secretly, hoping that Qin Liangyu would leave Si.
Sichuan, but it was silently resolved by the emperor.
Ma Xianglin hesitated for a moment and said, "Mother, Father-in-law Liu's tone seems to be ......"
The words are not finished, but the meaning is self-evident.
Liu Shimin's attitude is the emperor's, who can refute the emperor's meaning?
Qin Liangyu's brows were furrowed, and his face was cold.
This matter will inevitably cause a backlash from the government and the opposition, and she needs to persuade the emperor not to let Ma Xianglin succeed him as the commander of the forbidden army.
Zhang Fengyi also knew the danger, and said with a worried face, "Mother, the emperor has always respected you, and he will see us off tomorrow, and ...... then."
Qin Liangyu nodded slightly and said, "I know."
She thought more than Ma Xianglin and his wife, their Ma family received too much imperial favor, no matter what happened in the end, it showed that the emperor's trust in them was beyond measure.
Similarly, the power of the government and the opposition will be unprecedented!
Grace is also an unspeakable majestic pressure on their foreign generals.
"You stay in the capital."
Qin Liangyu said suddenly.
Ma Xianglin and his wife were stunned, and looked at Qin Liangyu with wide eyes.
Qin Liangyu's face was calm, and he said lightly: "Go to the Generalissimo's Mansion, the War Department, and hang up an idle post." ” Ma Xianglin and his wife glanced at each other, a little enlightened.
They are staying in the capital, and they are a 'hostage', showing their loyalty to the emperor and the court, and dispelling the excuse that some people in the government and the opposition are targeting their Ma family. …… Zhu Xu naturally didn't know about the discussion of the Ma family, and when it was dark, he hugged the sleeping Xiao Ciye, walked out of the Qianqing Palace, and turned to the Fengzao Palace.
"Father's ......"
As soon as he entered the door, Zhu Xu almost stumbled, only to see Li Xie holding Xiao Shuxian with a smile, Xiao Shuxian opened her eyes wide, looked at Zhu Xu with a milky voice, and said the first sentence.
Zhu Xu hurriedly put down Xiao Ciye, took Xiao Shuxian, held it in his arms, looked at her delicate little face, and said excitedly, "Call ...... again" Xiao Shuxian blinked, then turned her head to look at Li Jieyu, Li Jieyu stepped forward, smiled like a flower, and said softly: "Shuxian, come, call the father and the emperor again......"
Xiao Shuxian turned her head to look at Zhu Xu, and said in a milky voice: "Father......
Hungry ......"
Zhu Xu felt a burst of speechless emotion in his heart, his whole body was trembling, his mouth was open, and he didn't know what to say.
This is his eldest daughter, and she was the first to speak, and a 'father' made him feel a sense of accomplishment like never before, and his whole heart was churning, he had never had this kind of feeling, and he didn't know how to react for a while.

Xiao Shuxian looked at Zhu Xu, saw that Zhu Xu ignored him, and turned to Li Xie Yu again, and said, "Hungry ......"
Her vocabulary is still very small, and she can only say the words 'father' and 'hungry'.
Zhu Xu was excited, reacted, and hurriedly said: "Prepare to eat, hurry, prepare to eat, Shuxian can eat whatever she wants today......"
