Zhu Xu couldn't sleep for an hour before he was woken up by Liu Shimin, because Sun Chuanting asked to see him. ∑ Zhao Jing dressed Zhu Xu, she stretched out her head to see that it seemed to be snowing again, and said softly: "Your Majesty, the concubine will make some appetizing snacks, and I will send them to you later." ” Zhu Xu was indeed a little hungry, 'um', rubbed his face again, raised his eyebrows and said, "Your soup is good, make another one." ” Zhao Jing was overjoyed and said, "Yes, the concubine remembers, and she will make a copy for the emperor every day and send it over." ” Zhu Xu smiled, ignored her careful thoughts, got dressed and walked outside, and hurried to the Qianqing Palace accompanied by Liu Shimin and others.
The maidservant came in quietly and said aggrievedly: "Miss, you scared me to death." ” Zhao Jing rolled her eyes, jumped backwards and fell on the bed, looked at the roof beam, and said with smart eyes: "Silly girl, Miss Ben is not stupid, besides, the emperor is not so terrible, just don't have bad intentions......"
The maid was even more aggrieved, and said: "Miss, you have forgotten the master's explanation before entering the palace, the palace is a place to eat people, and those concubines of the previous dynasty, even the queen mother, have been plotted......"
Zhao Jing turned over and jumped up again, exclaiming: "Ah, I want to cook food for the emperor, let's go, give me a hand......"
She walked as she spoke, muttering, "I don't know if there are those materials in the imperial dining room, Yan'er, show me your skills, otherwise you will sleep on the ground......"
The maidservant was very worried about her young lady, and hurriedly followed.
Zhu Xu rushed to the Qianqing Palace, and Sun Chuanting was already waiting.
After Sun Chuanting saluted, he said without waiting for Zhu Xu to do it: "Your Majesty, the ministers have already prepared all the things to be discussed, and the ministers plan to rotate the governors of the three provinces of Liaodong to Guannei, and the governors of Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan will be transferred to Beijing, and the ministers of Nanzhili plan to split ......."
After Zhu Xu sat down, he picked up the teacup casually and said, "Go on." ” "Nanzhili is too big, many things are beyond the reach of the governor Yamen, the minister plans to split into two provinces, part of which is merged into Shandong, Zhejiang, etc., and the whole country also plans to merge the county government, taking the road of big mansions, big counties and big towns......
"In this way, it can not only concentrate the power of local officials, but also disperse local stubborn forces, and at the same time increase the control of the imperial court over the locality, which is conducive to the promotion of the 'New Deal'......"
"The ministers and other cabinets, the six ministries and the governors have discussed, and there is generally no problem, this year's conference will make a plan first, and it will be implemented next year, and strive to complete the ...... within two years."
Zhu Xu put down the teacup and nodded slightly.
Sun Chuanting's thinking has always been very clear, the imperial court has centralized power and adopted the majority ministry system, and the local government is also continuing this idea.
This is more to disperse, crack down on the other party's gentry forces, and speed up land, hukou and other related work.
Zhu Xu fell asleep, was much more awake, and said, "Yes, you can make the charter more detailed and present it."
Just look, I'll leave it to you, and don't interfere. ” Sun Chuanting's trust in Zhu Xu was under great pressure, and his face was calm and unmoving, and he said, "The minister obeys the order."
Horqin Great Khan Badali sent people to send 3,000 good horses, which were a congratulatory gift for Hai Guifei's birthday, and he has now arrived in Zhangjiakou, waiting for the emperor's will. ” Zhu Xu's heart suddenly moved, and said, "How many of our horse farms are there at present?"
” Sun Chuanting thought for a while and said: "Sichuan, Shaanxi, Liaodong, and Yunnan each have one, plus Zhangjiakou buys from Mongolia every year, and there can be 30,000 batches of war horses every year, all of which are of the highest quality, and there is no shortage of war horses in the Shuai Mansion at present." ” Zhu Xu pondered for a moment and said, "Badali has also done his best all these years, and there is no disrespect......
In this way, let the war horse in and stay in the royal garden.
In the name of the Imperial Palace, three thousand pieces of cloth were procured from the various chambers of commerce, nay, made into ready-to-wear garments.
Cotton clothes, tights, liquor, salt, tents and other necessities of life, the total price of one million, to me with a great reward, let Shen Yongmao gather all the tribes of Mongolia and send them in front of them. ” Sun Chuanting immediately understood what Zhu Xu meant, and said: "Yes, the minister ordered the General Administration of Commerce to do it, and Zhao Shujiao of the Royal Legion, Man Gui personally escorted it, and then let Shen Yongmao distribute it." ” 'Grace and power'!
Zhu Xu was satisfied, and said: "Well, you discuss with the Shuai Mansion specifically, by the way, Xuan'er will go on behalf of me this time." ” Sun Chuanting had no objection and said: "Yes, the Second Highness shows that the emperor attaches great importance to Horqin, and I think other tribes will be very envious." ” Zhangjiakou has made a lot of money from trading with Mongolia over the years, and now it is naturally not to make money, but to divide and win over the huge and complex Moxi Mongolia, so as to lay the foundation for something in the future.
The two of them agreed, and Sun Chuanting said again: "Your Majesty, Governor Cao Dadu has been in the military affairs of the Marshal's Mansion for some days, should I mention it?"
With the military exploits of Cao Dadudu, it can be further improved. ” Zhu Xu paused, raised his head and looked at him.
There are no suspicions, all doubts.
Sun Chuanting's expression was calm, and he bowed down and said: "This is not the minister's idea, it is that Deputy Marshal Qin found Weichen early in the morning and revealed this meaning." ” Zhu Xu looked at Sun Chuanting, slowly took the teacup, and said thoughtfully: "It should be your idea of the 'Ministry of Defense' that touched the Shuai Mansion, and Sun Ge is afraid that he is really going to be a minister." ” Sun Chuanting knew that Zhu Xu and Sun Chengzong had a three-year contract, so he unhurriedly solved the problem: "Your Majesty, Sun Ge Lao can not leave, but there can be more than one deputy marshal, and the division of labor and cooperation can increase efficiency." ” Zhu Xu took a sip of tea, thought for a moment, and said, "Since Deputy Marshal Qin looked for you first, I guessed that this was what I meant. ” In Zhu Xu's plan, he wanted to build a strong military, reduce the constraints of the civilian clique as much as possible, and prepare for future expansion.
But under the current trend of reform, whether it is Sun Chengzong or Qin Liangyu, they are not strong enough to fight much with the cabinet.
Of course, there are reasons for Zhu Xu here, but it is more because of the traditional thinking of the Ming Dynasty, the status of the martial artists is very low, and the suppression of the martial artists is the common thinking of the government and the opposition, and the martial artists themselves are also accustomed to self-deprecation.
In this environment, it is very difficult for the Shuai Mansion to get ahead.
Even if Cao Wenzhao ascends to the throne in the future, it may not be as Zhu Xu expects.
Sun Chuanting didn't know how many thoughts Zhu Xu had in his mind for a moment, and then said: "The minister only has some consideration for the army, and it is under the general framework, and the specific situation has to be determined by the emperor." ” Sun Chuanting knows where his powers and responsibilities are, he can distinguish the boundaries clearly, and he is very measured.
Zhu Xu said 'um' and said: "I will discuss this matter carefully with Deputy Marshal Qin, don't move it yet, the reform of the army is not thorough enough, and it will take time." ” Sun Chuanting said: "The minister understands.
Tomorrow, the minister plans to hold a preliminary meeting in the parliament to finalize some matters, and the most important ones will be decided in the last three days. ” This should be the purpose of Sun Chuanting's visit today.
Zhu Xu thought for a while and said, "I won't go with a bunch of things in my hands, I will let the celebrant keep an eye on it, and the specific draft will be sent over before tonight." ” Sun Chuanting said: "Yes, the minister understands. ”
