Chapter 1523: Attack on Qin Liangyu


In September, Zhu Xu and others had already arrived in Huguang. ﹤ The rain poured down, the river swelled, not to mention the big city of Changsha, even a small city like Yuezhou, it was mostly submerged, and the water on the streets reached to the knees.

On the famous Yueyang Tower, Zhu Xu looked at the stone tablets of poems and songs left by the ancients, the couplets engraved on the pillars and the various footprints of literati and rioters, and his expression was quite emotional.

Zhu Xu put his hands behind his back, looked at the famous "The Story of Yueyang Tower", nodded and said, "These are the precious treasures left to us by our ancestors, we must cherish them, preserve them, and never destroy them at will." “ Behind Zhu Xu were Zhou Linjiong, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, Yan Qishan, the governor of Huguang, and others.

Yan Qishan is a Jinshi in the thirty-seventh year of Wanli, over sixty years old, and among the many governors of the Ming Dynasty, he is considered a member of the old seniority.

Yan Qishan also looked up at the stone tablet, and answered with a smile: "What the emperor said is true.

I have a great Ming culture and religion prosperous, the works of the sages of the past dynasties are extremely precious, and the ministers are also very cherished, this Yueyang Building includes one hundred and twenty ministers and other ministers as a first-class cultural holy place, always protected, renovated every year......"

Zhou Lin said: "The minister heard that the royal government has collected the world's collection of books, strange history, ghosts, gods and immortals, etc., and there is no choice to avoid it, and the minister is very excited about it."

The words of the sages are taught without class, and books should naturally be words without class, not poisonous things, and should be tolerated. ” Zhu Xu turned around, sat down on the stone chair, and said, "That's the reason."

Let's all sit down, that is, I am a shallow learner, otherwise with this heavy rain, the literati and writers can write at least ten excellent works. ” Zhou Linjiong and Yan Qishan are both from the imperial examination, so there is naturally no problem in writing poems and lyrics, but His Majesty the Emperor in front of him thinks that he is shallow in learning, how can they not be interested in being strong.

Zhou Linjiong sat on Zhu Xu's left hand side, he looked at the surging lake, and said: "Your Majesty, Yueyang Lake, Dongting Lake, Panyang Lake and other large and small lakes, the Ministry of Industry has been constantly renovating over the years, and the rivers of the upper and lower branches of the lakes have also been continuously dredged, opening up several rivers, and also digging many storage lakes, flood channels, flood gates and so on.

Although this year's heavy rain is more violent and severe than in previous years, it will no longer form a flood, so please rest assured. ” Zhu Xu came from Nanjing, basically by boat, and was very satisfied with the water conservancy project of the Ministry of Industry, and was naturally very satisfied with the specific implementation of the Ministry of Industry's waiter, Zhou Linjiong.

Zhu Xu took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "I heard that you also proposed a minor repair in five years and a major repair in ten years?"

” Zhou Linjiong said, "Yes, for Taihu Lake, Panyang Lake, Dongting Lake and other inner lakes, there is no problem with five-year renovation, but the Yellow River and the Yangtze River need to be inspected every year, and it may be necessary to overhaul them in three or five years." ” Zhu Xu nodded slightly, and said: "The cabinet proposed to reinstate the governor of the river to deal with the water situation, but I rejected it, and this task still needs to be placed in the Ministry of Industry." ” Zhou Linjiong could understand the difference, and then said with a smile: "Your Majesty, in the past ten years, the imperial court has carried out unprecedented renovation of the world's water conservancy, and there are hundreds of thousands of hectares of fertile land, I don't know how many people will benefit......

Speaking of this, Zhu Xu suddenly turned his head to look at him and said, "Before I left Beijing, I chatted with Fang Shangshu, speaking of you, he originally planned to transfer you to Beijing, hang the title of Shangshu, and be responsible for the on-the-spot land division, but you refused?"

” Zhou Linjiong knew that Fang Kongjiong admired him very much, and had been persuading him to enter Beijing, and when he saw that His Majesty the Emperor was asking, he bowed down and said: "Back to the emperor, the minister has been in the Ministry of Industry for ten years, and there are too many things in his hands that cannot be separated, and he is afraid that the successor may not be able to take it all over. ” Zhu Xu looked at him with a sincere expression, no falsehood, nodded approvingly, and said: "I have a lot of people who can do things, but there are not many people who can refuse the temptation of becoming an official and become a knight, and they insist on doing things."

Very well, I support you, the position of the cabinet, I keep you one. ” Yan Qishan, who was on the side, opened his eyes wide when he listened, and looked at Zhou Linjiong in surprise and surprise, His Majesty the Emperor personally promised that Zhou Linjiong would definitely enter the cabinet in the future!

Zhou Linjiong didn't expect Zhu Xu to give him such an answer, so he hurriedly stood up and said, "The minister is just doing his duty, don't dare to take on such a heavy responsibility!"

” Zhu Xu waved his hand and said, "Being able to do my duty is already rare in my Ming Dynasty." ” Zhou Linjiong and Yan Qishan respectfully did not dare to say much, now there is a lot of noise in the officialdom, and it seems that they all support the 'New Deal', but there are many kinds of specific actions, and many speculative people are exposed in the wave of opposition from the gentry.

Some people are cowering, difficult and afraid, and some are obscure in speech, as if they are standing on the opposing side.

Naturally, there is no shortage of those who ride the wall, and these people are the majority in the wave of resignations.

Zhu Xu seemed to say casually, turned his head to look at Yan Qishan again, and said: "Huguang has always been fertile and rich in rice and grain, although there are natural disasters, there are many other problems. ” As the governor of Huguang, Yan Qishan naturally understood the problem, and said with a deep color: "The emperor can rest assured, the ministers have made a detailed plan, from the most basic land reclamation to the final tax and grain collection, there is a mature plan, the emperor gave the ministers five years to complete the 'new deal', five years later, Huguang's grain output will definitely be able to surpass Nanzhili!"

” Zhu Xu didn't seem to have any sense of this obviously bragging, but said approvingly: "Well, it's good to be determined."

I'm watching and the cabinet are watching, and I hope you will do what you say. ” Yan Qishan said in a deep voice: "The ministers must live up to the emperor's expectations!"

” Zhu Xu smiled, picked up the teacup, and was about to speak again, when Li Deyong hurriedly ran in from outside in the rain.

The three of them turned their eyes, Li Deyong came to Zhu Xu's approach, took out a playbook from his arms, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, the playbook of He Sancai, the president of Beijing Normal University." ” He Sancai?

Zhu Xu looked at him, took it curiously, looked at it, his smile faded away, and finally turned into a cold color.

Although Zhou Linjiong is not often in the capital, he also knows that he is a good-tempered person today and never loses his face easily.

Yan Qishan didn't change anything, but he was curious about what Zhu Xu's recital was about.

Zhu Xu glanced at the two of them and pushed the notebook over.

Zhou Linjiong took it and looked down, his face suddenly changed slightly, and then without saying a word, he handed it to Yan Qishan.

Yan Qishan took it and swept it, frowning slightly, and didn't speak.

Zhu Xu suppressed his anger, looked at Zhou Linjiong, and said, "What do you think?"

” Zhou Linjiong pondered silently for a moment, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has been in Sichuan for a year, and the deputy marshal Qin has a high reputation and outstanding merits. ” Yan Qishan didn't dare to squeak, because this piece was meant to impeach Qin Liangyu.

The reason is that there has been news in Beijing recently that Sun Chengzong is too busy to do anything because of old age and frailty, and he is ready to return to his hometown before the end of the year.

And he was succeeded by not the long-rumored Cao Wenzhao, but the first-ranked deputy marshal of the Shuai Mansion, Qin Liangyu.

He Sancai's book, inside and out, is an attack on Qin Liangyu's identity as a woman and transgressing the court, citing scriptures, reasonable, and evidence-based, almost describing Qin Liangyu as a shameless woman who has brought disaster to the country and the people and caused chaos in the world.

Daming has already spread the story of this person who personally went out of the city ten miles to greet Qin Liangyu, and everyone knows that Zhu Xu has a special impression of this female general, who would write such a book at this time?

You must know that such a risk is very large, and at Zhu Xu's age, it is tantamount to a self-defeating career!

Someone wrote it, and he was also the president of Beijing Normal University!

From the bottom of his heart, Yan Qishan also did not approve of Qin Liangyu serving as the marshal of the Marshal's Mansion, the second assistant of the right of the cabinet, which ......

It's ridiculous!

But judging from Qin Liangyu's resume, seriously, there is no problem, further, what threat can an old man in his seventies pose in a system like Daming?

The problem is that Qin Liangyu is a woman!

What kind of scene is a woman standing in the court, standing between a group of men, or in front, and how will it shake the officialdom?

What kind of impact will it have on the people?

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

This is a challenge to the thousand-year-old ethics of the Central Plains Dynasty!

The vast majority of readers are hard to accept!

Yan Qishan's heart was clear and he didn't say much.

On the one hand, there is a possible rolling opposition, and on the other hand, there is today's strong support, and it is difficult to say who will win and who will lose.

Zhu Xu was noncommittal to Zhou Linjiong's words, glanced at Yan Qishan, and probably could guess the true attitude of the government and the opposition.

After pondering for a moment, Zhu Xu said, "I ordered to severely reprimand He Sancai, first, listen to rumors and rumors, and don't distinguish between right and wrong."

Second, the government is discussed in vain, which has a bad impact.

Third, maliciously attacking the court officials and disrespecting the law and discipline.

Fourth, there is a failure to hold oneself and conduct oneself incorrectly.

Fifth, despicable speech and bad conduct.

Sixth ......"

Zhu Xu said He Sancai's sixteen major sins in one breath, and then waved his hand.

Li Deyong hurriedly wrote it down, answered, and went to a pavilion not far away, and arranged for someone to send a letter to the capital.

After a while, Li Deyong looked at the carrier pigeon flying to the sky, and whispered to himself: "The capital is lively." ” A cadre of inner prisoners beside him bowed their heads, faintly trembling.

They are all old eunuchs, and they don't know how much wind and rain they have watched coldly in the capital.

This He Sancai, whether there is anyone behind him or not, this is just the beginning.

In Zhu Xu's plan, he didn't go to Sichuan, but He Sancai's performance was an accident, so Zhu Xu deliberately changed his plan and went to Sichuan.

Sichuan, once the country of abundance, was devastated under the disaster, even with the continuous blood transfusion of the imperial court over the years, it was still sleepy, and the people were tired and struggling to survive.

The day after Zhu Xu left Chengdu, Lin Youting, the governor of Sichuan, and Xiong Tingbi, the governor of the Western Theater, jointly signed an article entitled "The Revival and Challenge of the Land of Abundance" and published it in the Chaobao.

Almanac about the development history of Sichuan, especially after ten years of Wanli, for some people who have established outstanding meritorious deeds, they are not stingy with pen and ink, and praise them greatly, and the name of Qin Liangyu here is particularly eye-catching.

Capital, Generalissimo's Palace.

Sun Chengzong, who has rarely entered the palace, looked at Qin Liangyu in front of him in a wheelchair, and said with a smile: "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, there is nothing to fear." ” Qin Liangyu is naturally fearless and fearless, she is worried that because of her, she will put Zhu Xu in a disadvantageous situation, this is not the public opinion in front of her, but the annals of history!

She knew that Zhu Xu had some special trust in her, which was somewhat beyond the monarch's trust in his courtiers, Qin Liangyu, an old lady in her seventies, naturally couldn't talk about men and women, but she couldn't figure out where it came from.

Although many people think that Cao Wenzhao will be the person who will succeed Sun Chengzong, the high-level people know that the Qianqing Palace is interested in Qin Liangyu.

Qin Liangyu listened to Sun Chengzong's words, raised his hand, and said calmly: "Let the marshal bother." ” Sun Chengzong touched the chair, looked outside the hall, and said with emotion: "You and I are both half-cut people, so there is no need to think so much."

What the emperor wants to do is a great cause, and you and I should be glad that we can still do something at such an age. ”
