Chapter 162: The Monarch and the Ministers Play Right


After a few days of preparation, Ji Ling finally arranged all the things to send troops to the south, but at this time, when he entered the palace to face the saint, he was still a little apprehensive, because Zhu Qiyu had not yet made it clear to himself about the right to act cheaply in terms of mine supervisors.

Fortunately, Zhu Qiyu has always been close to him, which reduced Ji Ling's psychological pressure a lot, so when he got out of the court and came to the inner study, Ji Ling intentionally or unintentionally led the topic out.

Zhu Qiyu didn't hide it from Ji Ling, took the tea brought by the little eunuch, drank two sips to moisten his throat, and then he looked at Ji Ling straight to the point and said, "When you go to the south to do business this time, it's not good to let the chores be hindered, so in addition to the right to command the army, I have to give you something." ” Ji Ling couldn't help but be excited when he heard Zhu Qiyu's promise, so he hurriedly bowed his hand and said, "Thank you for your grace, but those magistrates ......."

"You don't have to worry about this, I have already sent people to greet the political envoys and commanders in Zhejiang, and they won't embarrass you......"

Zhu Qiyu put his leg on the table and put his leg on the stool, and a maid stepped forward to knead it for you, "As for the local mine supervisors, they are all slaves sent out by the palace, and they dare to show you face?"

I guess it's too late for you to tie the knot!

” When Zhu Qiyu said this, he looked calm, and there was really a faint imperial aura between Gu Pan, which was very different from the cowardly appearance when he had just ascended the throne, so Ji Ling's attitude couldn't help but be more respectful, "The minister is only afraid that his authority is unclear, and there is a conflict with the local ......government."

"I knew you were going to ask that!

Hahaha......"

Zhu Qiyu raised his head and laughed twice, then lightly touched his finger on the table, and then Cheng Jing, the chief eunuch of the inner official supervisor, stepped forward with a long sword, with a lacquered gold sheath and a big red spike, if Ji Ling guessed correctly......

"This Shang Fang sword, I will give it to you now......"

Zhu Qiyu raised his eyebrows at Cheng Jing, and Cheng Jing immediately held the sword in front of Ji Ling's eyes, "With it, it will be much easier for you to do things." ” In fact, if you watch too many film and television dramas in later generations, you will inevitably have an illusion: as long as you have the sword of Shang Fang, you will be like the emperor Lao Tzu, beheading the emperor's relatives and relatives, and killing corrupt officials and traitors.

In fact, it's not like this: you have this Shang Fang sword, and others know that the emperor trusts you very much, so they will sell your face, and even compromise when necessary, but if you really have a tendon in your head and want to use Shang Fang's sword to kill people with majesty, it is estimated that you will be damned.

Ji Ling knew the complex meaning contained in this, so he hurriedly took the long sword, bent down and saluted Zhu Qiyu, "Minister Ji Ling, thank you for the grace of the Holy Lord!"

” "Get up!"

Zhu Qiyu raised his hand at Ji Ling, and then sighed and said, "At this point, you should understand that I sent you over this time, saying that it was to suppress the rebellion, but in fact, I also want you to settle the matter of the silver mines in Zhejiang and Fujian." ” "I'm so upset!

It's all the mess from before!

Now the imperial court has no treasury silver, but the silver mines in the south can't produce much things, so they are in the hands of the government, and several mine supervisors are sent over to watch, but the silver is not much to make out, but it has caused a lot of chaos. ” In fact, this is similar to some enterprises in later generations, and some inherent drawbacks are difficult to eradicate, so the key is to use the right people, but the people are ......

Isn't it all going to change?

What's more, the experience in this area in ancient times is still very little, and I hope that I can learn from some systems in later generations and play a certain role, so Ji Ling hurriedly expressed his loyalty and said, "I will do my best to share your Majesty's worries!"

” "Now you don't want to worry about me, hehe......"

Zhu Qiyu said, and waved his hand at Cheng Jing, so Cheng Jing immediately retreated to the back compartment, "It is said that in the matter of the silver mine, I should choose a minister from the ministry and the court, but I am afraid that sending a governor at this stall will delay your work, so I want you to arrest all these powers......"

"You are a military general, and I can't make you a governor of the country, but I gave you this sword and allowed you to be called a "Qincha", so presumably those local officials will not dare not cooperate. ” "But you have to put down the rebellion, and the matter of the silver mine must be resolved......"

Zhu Qiyu rubbed his eyebrows, and seemed to feel that these things were not easy to handle, "Yu Shangshu and Ning Yanghou both told me that if the matter of the silver mine is uneven, the chaos will never end, and if the rebellion continues, the silver mining will be empty talk, so I am now betting all my hope on you......"

Ji Ling saw that Zhu Qiyu was sincere and seemed to be able to understand his current embarrassment, so he nodded and said, "The ministers will try their best to get these two things done!"

” "Well, I believe in you, otherwise I wouldn't have allowed you to have all your power!"

Zhu Qiyu's eyes flashed, and he directly made his words clear, "Don't use suspicious people, don't doubt people, I have always been unambiguous about trustworthy people, such as Yu Shangshu, and then you, I am all heart-to-heart!"

” Ji Ling understands Zhu Qiyu's current psychology: although he became the emperor, his identity is a little embarrassing after all, so many ministers still believe that Zhu Qizhen is still a prisoner in the north.

And Zhu Qiyu's own ability is also insufficient, so he urgently needs someone who is loyal to him and is shrewd and capable, but how many such people can there be?

So if there is one, count one, Zhu Qiyu will give them a favor that ordinary courtiers can't enjoy.

Who knew that just when Ji Ling wanted to take the opportunity to show a wave of loyalty, Zhu Qiyu suddenly continued to say, "You go to the south alone, there are too many things to deal with, and you always have to have a helper by your side, so let's send someone to ...... for you."

Zhu Qiyu said that, he clapped his hands heavily, and Cheng Jing, who was staying in the back compartment, immediately led a black fat eunuch out.

"This is Cao Jixiang, before Ningyang Hou went to recruit Deng Maoqi, he also followed the commander of firearms, he is very capable, and he is also a person who can do things in the master of ceremonies, if those mine supervisors are ignorant this time, you can let Cao Jixiang come forward!"

Yes?

Didn't you just say that you "leave everything to yourself", and now you have sent another overseer?

Moreover, because of the incident between Zhu Yong and Liu Seng, Ji Ling has always had no good impression of the prison army.

However, Ji Ling also understands that Zhu Qiyu is now the emperor, and the angle of thinking about the problem is naturally different: if he doesn't send a few henchmen to watch the place, how can he put his mind at ease?

Yes, before Zhu Qiyu succeeded to the throne, he always regarded himself as a brother.

Don't forget, people and Zhu Qizhen are still serious brothers......

Note: From the ministry (six ministries), the court (Metropolitan Procuratorate) selected ministers to go to the local governor, since the Xuande period, but in the Chenghua period gradually became customized (controversial), the so-called "patrol the world, the army and the people", later the power is getting bigger and bigger, and even above the three divisions.

(It reflects the gradual strengthening of the central government's control over the localities, which are all knowledge points, must be examined, circled, hahaha...... )
