Chapter 22 Yuansuke, I have doubts

"Prosper the country and strengthen the army." Zhang Juzheng was sitting upright, and it was a major event for the Beijing camp to promote and recruit generals, which involved the military power of the Beijing camp.

Daming and Altan Khan have fought in Xuanda for more than ten years, but they still haven't won. The current predicament of Daming can be attributed to the fact that they can't win. inside and outside?
It's not that they didn't win, and the Jin Party has consolidated its position step by step.

If he could drive straight in like Emperor Cheng Zuwen, the northern captives would be driven thousands of miles away.

Can the court situation still be like this today?Does the Jin Party still have such courage?

Zhang Juzheng continued: "The ancients said that although the world is safe, forgetting the war will be in danger. Today, the capital has been in peace for a long time, the military equipment has been slackened, and the officers are controlled by civil servants. In the future, those who are loyal and brave generals should be given powers so that they can display their talents. .”

"Officials of the fourth rank and above in Beijing and officials of science and Taoism, governors, towns, patrols and other officials abroad, each nominate generals to prepare for envoys. If the person selected has made meritorious deeds or bad deeds, he will be rewarded and punished to serve as the master."

Zhang Juzheng began by quoting a sentence from the military book "Sima Fa", although the world is temporarily stable, but forgetting that war will definitely become dangerous.

However, the military equipment of the Ming Dynasty was abolished, and the generals, generals (basic level officers), and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were all restrained by civil officials, and it was difficult to move forward everywhere. Those generals who were loyal and brave enough to do things should be properly delegated to allow the generals of the Ming Dynasty to display their talents.

As for the staff in the Beijing camp, all levels of governors, guards, governors, and above the fourth rank in the Ming Dynasty can recommend generals, rewards and punishments are integrated, rewards are made together for meritorious service, and punishments are made together for mistakes.

How to delegate power?

Qi Jiguang ambushed Dong Huli, captured Dong Huli's nephew, and sent him to Beijing with weapons. At that time, the situation was sudden, and Liang Menglong, the governor of Jiliao, knew about it afterwards.

This is decentralization.

The enemy has been bullying to the door, and the governor and the commander-in-chief have to discuss how to divide the credit and how to divide the blame. What kind of battle is there?The power and responsibility are not clear, and orders go out to many schools, which is the taboo among the taboos.

Who is the leader of that army?In wartime, the generals are the main ones.

This is decentralization.

Wang Chonggu wanted to take his dog to the Beijing camp to eat the emperor's food, but Zhang Juzheng proposed that both civil and military inside and outside the Ming Dynasty could recommend generals.

What Zhang Juzheng said was upright, and what he did was also upright. He explained the selection method in detail, and practiced all the generals and generals recommended to the Beijing camp.

How to practice?According to what regulations?
Qi Jiguang wrote two military books, and practiced according to those two military books. The Zhejiang army can bear it, but the selected generals can't bear it?
The ten-year-old owner of the Ming Dynasty can still grit his teeth and persist, saying that he is born noble, can he still be more noble than His Majesty?
Real gold is not afraid of fire, forging fiercely in high fire, cooking oil in fierce fire, and the rest are the elite.

Feng Bao immediately clapped his hands and praised: "This method is good! Since it is to revive the army's prestige, since it is to strengthen the army! Use this method."

"Wang Shaobao, don't you think that the Beijing camp is corrupt? Didn't you say that the virtuous are not shunning relatives? Do you dare to throw those people on your list into it for practice?"

"Why don't you dare!" Wang Chonggu folded his hands and said, "I'm afraid that when the time comes, some people will cheat for personal gain, practice deceit, practice hard, and the rest will be a group of followers!"

Zhang Juzheng frowned. Seeing Wang Chonggu's complexion became a little bit colder, he stretched his hands forward on the table, leaned back, and said in a flat tone: "Wang Shaobao is too worried about this matter. , the admiral and the ministers, how many pairs of eyes are staring at him, in broad daylight, in full view of the world, in plain sight, and deceitful, isn’t it a villain? Besides, isn’t there Wang Shaobao watching?”

As soon as Zhang Juzheng's words came out, there were only the sounds of the little emperor flipping books and the spring breeze blowing the curtain in Wenhua Hall.

Everyone was a little nervous. Zhang Juzheng usually spoke very gently, but there was a slight change in tone, and everyone noticed it.

"I hope so." Wang Chonggu sensed the change in Zhang Juzheng's tone, and immediately said: "Yuanfu, I'm not questioning Yuanfu's conduct, but I'm afraid that this eunuch admiral will cause trouble."

Yang Bo is very accurate in seeing people. Wang Chonggu is irritable, and he was furious when he was provoked by Feng Bao in a few words. This is aphasia. , but Zhang Juzheng proposed it.

Wang Chonggu suspected that someone was falsifying, so he first pointed the gun at Zhang Juzheng.

Only then did Zhang Juzheng smile and said: "No problem, I'll preside over this time, if something happens to the admiral's minister, he must report to His Majesty and deal with it."

Only then did Wang Chonggu heave a sigh of relief. Don't offend Zhang Juzheng to death if you offend anyone. If you say an offensive word, Zhang Juzheng won't be so fussy.

Face is given to each other, Zhang Juzheng was dissatisfied, and Wang Chonggu spoke soft words in front of so many people, so the problem was not completely settled.

"Little man." Feng Bao scolded Wang Chonggu's villain Qi Qi, just now when Yang Bo talked to Zhang Juzheng, he said "castrate", so Feng Bao wanted to scold him back.

Wang Chonggu immediately replied: "The eunuch."

"Little man."

"Wang Shaobao." Yang Bo watched the scolding fight again, and reminded Wang Chonggu at the beginning, don't be like an eunuch.

"Humph."

"Humph!"

Yang Bo stepped forward, and the scolding battle stopped amidst two cold snorts, Feng Bao refused to suffer at all.

Wang Chonggu accepted the proposal, and everyone went to the school grounds, whether it was a mule or a horse, to take it out for a walk.

For his list, Tan Lun, Minister of the Ministry of War, was stuck for a few months. When the official department impeached him, Tan Lun immediately resigned from office, posing an attitude that he would quit or not approve.

If the dispute continued, Zhang Juzheng became impatient and transferred all the elite of the Zhejiang Army to the Beijing camp. Wang Chonggu, the admiral of the Beijing camp, was completely empty-handed and a decoration.

What Zhang Juzheng said was actually Tan Lun's idea.

Why did Tan Lun refuse to approve the list? Wang Chonggu's list is all Wang Chonggu's personal contacts. Whether Wang Chonggu is willing or not, he has to recommend it.

They all sat in the Wenhua Palace, and as one of the 27 dignified courtiers, they wrote a letter to promote generals, but they still had to consider favors, kneeling to be Minggong, what kind of Minggong is that!
Even if this matter is finalized.

The court discussions were noisy, but under Zhang Juzheng's auspices, most of them had a relatively good result and were dealt with very quickly. It will be temporarily implemented in the capital, rather than being pushed to the whole country at once.

A decision made by a government decree is not something a mature Minggong should do. It is the right thing to constantly summarize experience and lessons during the operation process, and then promote it to the whole country.

Zhu Yijun got the new textbook "Di Jian Tu Shuo", which contains the stories of the kings of the past dynasties written by Zhang Juzheng. Although there are only 110 short chapters, each one has a profound meaning.

"The ministers are waiting to leave." The court meeting ended amidst the noise, and the people who served the emperor's study began to enter.

Feng Bao said very solemnly: "Your Majesty, yesterday I heard that His Majesty was going to marry Nong Sang, and there were many difficulties. I was anxious for a while, so I told Yuanfu about it and asked him to help think of a way. After all, it is a matter of the outer court. The minister is not good at talking too much."

"Well, you did a good job today, keep it up." Zhu Yijun closed "Four Books Straight Explanation" and looked at Feng Bao, nodding in satisfaction.

Who did Feng Bao listen to?Listen to what the servant girl arranged by Zhang Hong of Qianqing Palace said.How did Feng Bao spread the word outside the palace?Feng Bao sent his adopted son Xu Jue to go.

Zhang Hong had already reported before going to the hall in the morning.

Both internal and external have their own purposes and work together to make this happen.

"Your Majesty's praise, your majesty's praise, my minister is relying on His Majesty's imperial power to insult them." Feng Bao burst into a smile, and hurriedly said, a praise from the emperor will stabilize his position in the palace .

The emperor will grow up eventually.

Zhu Yijun didn't blame Feng Bao for revealing the news to the outside world. What can be revealed and what can't be revealed. As the big peng in the palace, Feng Bao should understand the scale.

If there is no news from inside and outside the palace, misunderstandings will easily occur. If there is no communication between inside and outside the palace, the emperor will be extremely dangerous.

As for how to leak certain confidential information and some false information effectively, reasonably, purposefully, and at the right time, this is a skill that requires great skill from our ancestors.

Leaking secrets is a means in itself.

What Zhu Yijun admired Feng Bao very much was the level of Feng Bao's "Qi Ren Jing". Zhang Hong's temperament may be difficult to learn.

Feng Baochang breathed a sigh of relief, holding his hands and smiling all over his face. His Majesty praised him, and he didn't blame him for spreading the news. This all proves that his position is more secure.

"Mr. Yuanfu is a great talent." Zhu Yijun was reading and listening to politics, and Zhang Juzheng handled it with ease.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment." Zhang Juzheng accepted this praise quite arrogantly, his talent and ability deserved His Majesty's praise.

At the beginning of preaching and dispelling doubts, it was still the Analects of Confucius and the books of sages, but Zhang Juzheng always felt that the little emperor's understanding was a bit weird, and the books of sages and sages were completely changed by the emperor's annotations.

Did Confucius really mean that?

Giving a feast to the little emperor even made Zhang Juzheng feel like he was sitting on the ground, but all the annotations of the little emperor were formed after a question and an answer, and Zhang Juzheng said it himself, as if it should be so.

Zhang Juzheng opened his mouth and said: "Zigong said: poor without flattery, rich without arrogance.

"Flaty: humble. Arrogant: arrogant and indulgent. But, it is possible, but it has not reached the extreme."

"Zigong asked Master: How about being poor but not flattering, rich but not arrogant?" Confucius said: "Yes.But it is not as good as the poor who can be happy, and the rich who can be polite. "

Zhu Yijun looked at Zhang Juzheng and asked, "Mr. Yuanfu, what's your explanation?"

Zhang Juzheng replied: "When ordinary people are poor, they don't have the intention of bowing their knees, and when they are rich, they don't have the heart of arrogance and indulgence. This is already extremely rare."

"If you can be poor and cold, and still enjoy pursuing the way of sages and sages, and be rich and dignified, and still pursue etiquette, you will be far beyond ordinary people. The master replied Zigong in this way to encourage him to pursue a realm that has not yet been reached."

"It is said: poor and lowly are not flattering, rich and honor are not arrogant; poor people follow the Tao, rich are polite."

"So." Zhu Yijun nodded quite accurately and asked, "Yuanfu, I have doubts."

"If a person is in poverty, has no food to eat, no clothes to cover his body, and the gravel on the road wears down the soles of his feet. At this time, some people say, kneel down and kowtow, you will have food, you will have clothes, and you will be hindered by shoes." The pain of the gravel, Yuanfu taught me, why doesn't this person kneel?"

Zhang Juzheng frowned, many pictures flashed before his eyes, and said: "I can't, that's why I have to live in poverty."

Zhu Yijun asked suspiciously: "Since you have to kneel and flatter and humble, you can't be poor and humble, and you can't pursue the way of sages."

"Of course." Zhang Juzheng replied.

Zhu Yijun continued to ask: "If a person is in the midst of riches and honor, and hurts a lowly person, one punch will cost three renminbi, ten punches will cost fifty renminbi, and even a tael of silver will not be used to kill a person. Punishment, someone covers up for him, but he does evil but doesn't know it, Yuanfu taught me, how can this person not be arrogant?"

Zhang Juzheng was silent for a long time, before he bowed his head and said, "No. That's why we need to be rich and polite."

Zhu Yijun shook his head and said: "Since you are arrogant and indulgent, you can't be rich but not arrogant, let alone rich and polite."

"Of course." Zhang Juzheng replied.

The match between the monarch and his ministers made the Wenhua Palace fall into silence. When the book of sages and sages was read here, some unexplainable phenomena seemed to appear. The emperor asked, Zhang Juzheng, a great talent, seemed to be unable to use the sages' training. explained.

What did Zhu Yijun ask?
The little good man punched the servant and dropped three copper coins, and the servant would be grateful.

Since then, the little virtuous person has known that it only costs three coins to beat someone, ten punches plus a little money, and there is no need to be afraid of killing someone. Someone helps cover it up. In the eyes of the little virtuous person, doing evil is not evil at all.
No.

In the eyes of little benevolent people, a person becomes an object.

People are objects, so what's the point of being arrogant, rich and studious?

Zhu Yijun said with a lot of emotion: "If poverty and hardship do not change, you will eventually flatter and humble. If you are rich and dignified and do not restrain yourself, you will inevitably be arrogant and indulgent. After a long time, the world will decline, and the rituals and music will collapse."

"It's said:..." Zhu Yijun picked up a pencil and wrote a few words.

 It is very important to follow up!Wu Xiang who Lin Yu and sister-in-law Gui repeat.Thank you all for your rewards, thank you very much.Kowtow, kowtow, ask for all support, ahhhhhh┗|`O′|┛ow~~woo! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! (づ ̄ 3 ̄)づ
