Chapter 873: Excusing the hardships
Chapter 873: It’s difficult for doctors to shirk the burden of work
Guo Jing was a cautious person, so he worked his way up to the rank of Minister of Civil Affairs. However, his popularity was not as good as that of Zhang Yue, who was twice his junior. But he was not old enough to be foolish yet. He had to choose a candidate to pick him up.
The two people proposed by Yang Shiqi, Yang Pu and Zhang Xin, one is a transparent person who does not complain, and the other is an old cunning man who shrinks his head when it is time to shrink. It can be said that even if these two people stay in the capital, they will not be dispatched.
It was of great use. I thought that I had already given away the power of selecting officials, and whether I kept it or not was the same thing, so I made a quick decision.
Getting ahead of Zhang Yue, he said without hesitation: "Nowadays, the Ministry of War has a lot of things to do, and I'm afraid Zhang Shilang won't be able to escape, so I'd better go. However, the affairs of the Ministry of Personnel cannot be completely delayed, and there must be someone
Acted by the appropriate person."
Zhang Yue knew that he could not leave the capital at this moment, so he had no intention of competing with Guo Jing. However, he stopped after hearing what Guo Jing said. He turned his head and unexpectedly found Guo Jing looking at him.
Himself. After being stunned for a moment, he suddenly realized that he didn't have to pretend to have a bitter look on his face: "Shilang Guo, Shilang Feng of the Ministry of War is still ill now. There are many shortages in the department. I am too busy for the Ministry of War alone. How can I still act as an agent?
Officials?"
"Originally, Jin Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment was the most suitable person to act as the official. However, Jin Shangshu suddenly fell ill a few days ago, and there was no one available from the Punishment Department, let alone the Ministry of Husbandry. Now that the election of officials has been suspended, it is just ordinary matters.
When it comes to promotions and transfers, it is enough for Mr. Zhang to report the maintenance in a timely manner, and there is no need to worry about every detail."
Yang Pu rarely said so many words in one breath. After he finished speaking, he took the tea and said nothing again. Zhu Yong never did political affairs, so he just sat silently. Longping Marquis Zhang Xin even more
His eyes were half open and half closed, as if he was sleeping. Zhang Yue looked around, and finally looked at Yang Shiqi. Unexpectedly, Yang Shiqi also nodded towards him.
"You don't need to go to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to take care of things. Every day, the doctor of the Literary Selection Department of the Ministry of Civil Affairs will send you a summary of the machine maintenance. You can take a look at it and send it to Wenyuan Pavilion. Now I don't want anything else, just that there will be no backlog.
"
Being able to make Yang Shiqi, who had always been diligent and devoted to his duties, say that it would be better if there was no backlog, Zhang Yue naturally could no longer find any reason to object, so he had no choice but to agree. Everyone also discussed the accompanying escort, departure time, and arrangements for prefectures and counties along the way.
After all the other matters had been discussed, Yang Shiqi stood up and saluted Zhang Xin and others solemnly: "If something extraordinary happens, I and I will do our best in Beijing, and please take care of the three of you."
Be prepared and be careful on the road."
Seeing what Yang Shiqi said, Zhu Yong and Zhang Yue also saluted. The two civil and military officers over there understood the importance and solemnly agreed. Because Zhu Yong and Zhang Xin still had to arrange military matters, they just went together.
After leaving, Yang Pu also returned to the cabinet first. Seeing this situation, Guo Jing didn't understand anything and left in a hurry. Yang Shiqi saw Zhang Yue just standing still and smiled at him.
"Just wait a moment. Fan Jin, the Supervisor of Ceremonies, is coming."
After the previous incident in the inner study hall, the internal officials were no longer as prestigious as those in the Yongle Dynasty, but this does not mean that eunuchs such as Fan Hong, Jin Ying, and Wang Jin lost their favor. What's more, it is inconvenient for foreign ministers to enter the inner palace, so such critical matters
At this time, it is natural that these two people, the Supervisor of Ceremonies, are indispensable. Therefore, when he just saw Cao Jixiang and another young eunuch leaving in a hurry, Zhang Yue knew that they were in a hurry to report the news, so he followed Yang Shiqi's instructions.
I mean, sit down and wait.
Finally, Fan Hong and Jin Ying both rushed over, but left Cao Jixiang and the eunuch outside to guard. Fan Hong glanced at Zuo Chunfang Si Zhilang in the corner who was still recording, and then coughed lightly and said: "
Nowadays, the city is full of storms, and it is a big responsibility for the capital to stay behind, so we have to focus on Mr. Yang Ge and Zhang Shilang. Especially Zhang Shilang. In addition to military affairs, we also want to mention the affairs of the Military War Bureau. Ordnance Supervisor
Places such as the Gunpowder Factory and other places all have lieutenant-level admirals. Now it seems that important places like the War and War Bureau cannot be inspected entirely by internal officers. They have to be inspected by capable people from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Works."
Starting from the Yongle Emperor Zhu Di, because he was worried about the civil and military officials, he gradually placed admirals and eunuchs in various important positions as surveillance. However, first Huang Yan and others hooked up with King Zhao, and then Wang Zhen was involved in the study hall.
Although the military situation has not yet been clarified, the corruption and fraud involved are shocking. Even though Fan and Jin are naturally facing the internal officials, they are a little afraid.
"Since Eunuch Fan mentioned it, I would like to say a few words. The Ministry of Industry's Arms Supervision makes craftsmen far lower than the War Bureau, but nowadays, whether it is firearms or other weapons, whether it is the efficiency of manufacturing or the power of new weapons,
They are already much higher than the Military War Bureau. Why is this? It’s just because there are rewards and punishments in the Ordnance Supervision and there is less exploitation. The craftsmen have hope and can report any problems to the superiors. The reason why the Military War Bureau came out this time
Such a big mistake has only come out now. Naturally, the pressure from below was too strong, so the top was completely deceived. It is said that they are bullying the top to hide it, but the fear is that they are so arrogant that they don't even hide it from the bottom, but the top doesn't know anything.
have no idea."
Zhang Yue and Li Cheng, the director of the Ministry of Industry, had gone to the Shenji Camp to find out. They learned that the Bureau of War had severely deducted the craftsman Lumi, and had turned a deaf ear to the previous reward and punishment system. He had already been extremely angry. At this time, Fan
When Hong mentioned it, he was naturally rude. Seeing that both Fan Hong and Jin Ying looked a bit unnatural, he emphasized his tone.
"The weapons and weapons are extraordinary. What's more, since the founding of the country, firearms have been the most important in the army, and even more so after Emperor Taizong established the Shenji Camp. Both swords and firearms are made by craftsmen. If they are a little sloppy, the sword will be
If it turns into scrap metal, the firearm will most likely explode, not to mention something like last night will happen."
Yang Shiqi was a traditional scholar-bureaucrat, and he was a little surprised that Zhang Yue raised his military equipment to such a high level. However, since they were both civil servants, he naturally wanted to defend himself in front of Fan Hong and Jin Ying, so he agreed with him. Sure enough,
, Jin Ying also sighed: "What Yangge Lao Shilang Zhang said is that our family and Eunuch Fan will also take responsibility. In addition, it is the matter of Prince Liang. Although the Queen Mother woke up in the morning, she was not in good spirits.
Okay, so I don’t dare to report what happened last night, but you can’t hide it. We just want to ask Mr. Zhang whether your sister-in-law is trying to cure the disease..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Yue shook his head and said with a wry smile: "This is inappropriate. Medical skills are accumulated over many years. She has some reputation among the female relatives in the capital. In fact, it is just because she is better than those doctors and doctors.
It is convenient to enter the hall, and there is no need to avoid anything. Naturally, there is a layer of wall between them than the doctor. But when it comes to administering acupuncture and medicine, how can it be compared to the senior doctors of the Tai Hospital? Furthermore, the Queen Mother is a noble person, she
I was worried that something might go wrong."
Jin Ying originally had the idea of treating a dead horse as a live doctor, but after hearing what Zhang Yue said, she backed down. Fan Hong shook his head directly: "After all, she became a monk halfway. If her master was here, it would be almost the same."
…”
Zhang Yue's heart tightened and he did not answer the question. Naturally, Yang Shiqi would not take this risk. He only looked at the appearance of Jin and Fan, becoming more and more worried - even if the matter calmed down this time, if the Queen Mother had
What's the big deal? The emperor will definitely be furious when he comes back. As a left-behind minister, he can't absolve himself of the blame. The worst thing is that he's afraid that when the time comes, he will be blamed and the whole city will be in trouble. But this is just a tacit deal, so he can only keep silent.
Fan Hong and Jin Ying came here specially, and the main purpose was naturally not only about the military affairs under the control of the inner court. It should be noted that now the King of Liang has been placed under house arrest in the mansion. Although Jin Yiwei Dongchang cannot take action against the dignified prince, the people below have already captured many
, after a night of torture, many mouths that were not so firm and unyielding had been pried open. So, after explaining the progress of the case, the brows of the two chief ministers were still frowning, but there was a slight hint of anger.
It means to be relieved.
"Whether it's the fraud of the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War, the conspiracy of bringing cotton armor into the city, or the introduction of gunpowder in the imperial city, and other things, even the troubles in the inner study hall before are happening now.
The real reason was revealed. Only this matter... Well, I won’t say more. There is only one thing. Prince Liang actually stopped eating. He refused to drink or eat after being escorted back to the mansion last night. No one could persuade him at this time.
Way. Before the emperor comes back, we absolutely can't let him torment us like this, so the two of us can only come to discuss an idea. Mr. Yang is the most mature and prudent person, and Mr. Zhang is the most resourceful. Please help me come up with an idea.
Method."
Forget about other things, how can you think of something like this!
Zhang Yue felt that his head was getting bigger, but the two eunuchs Fan Hong and Jin Ying were able to do it. They actually bowed to him and Yang Shiqi to the ground, bending over and not getting up! And Yang Shiqi
He pinched his eyebrows hard and said in a very uncertain tone: "How about you go and have a look at Yuanjie? If it works, it's best. If it doesn't, it's none of your business."
Not to mention that Yuan Fang specifically asked his father to bring a message. Even if there was no such message, he could easily pick it out this time, and he would not jump in again easily. After all, there are two different things between accidentally discovering and personally investigating and participating. So
, he quickly thought about it in his mind, and then he came up with an idea and came up with a sinister way.
"It's better to let Wu Dinghou Guo Xuan go and persuade him to make meritorious service. After all, he is an uncle and nephew. If he can make King Liang give up his intention to die, the Guo family will naturally be more tolerant when he comes back."
Before Zhang Yue finished speaking, Jin Ying suddenly straightened up, his eyes were shining, and he hit his left hand hard with his right fist: "If not, things will get serious this time, and the title of the Guo family cannot be ignored.
Ti, where is he and his other children?"
"That's good, but I still don't know if Guo Cong was forced to death by the King of Liang." Fan Hong reminded him abruptly.
"So what? Everyone is dead. For the sake of yourself and the remaining people, you have to give it a try!"
Jin Ying gave Zhang Yue a thumbs up as he spoke, and without any time to delay, he took Fan Hong and hurried away after saluting him. Yang Shiqi, who was relieved, was afraid that something would happen to the two men and they would come back again, so he encouraged them.
Zhang Yue said a few words, such as those who can work harder, and he immediately walked very fast, unlike an old man in his sixties. As a result, Zhang Yue became the last one.
It was very close from the Jing Hall of the Wenhua Palace to the Donghua Gate, and it took only a short time to reach the tall tower. Before going out, he couldn't help but turn his head and look at the unusually conspicuous Renshou Palace not far to the north, and felt
It was really hard for Zhu Ning to think about what Jin Ying had mentioned. If he told Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu would probably agree to it - that little girl would have missed her sister Ning a long time ago.
——But he couldn't take this risk, and it was expected that Zhu Ning would never want Xiao Wu to get involved.
Treating diseases for the royal family, a bad one will lead to death! Doctors and craftsmen are all rare talents in this era, but the former has a higher status, but they are inevitably shouted around by the powerful. As for the latter, they simply become
With the same humble service, it is no wonder that folk skills continued to improve in the later period, while various military technologies failed to recover.
Walking out of the Dongshang Middle Gate and Dong'an Gate along the Donghua Gate, Zhang Yue and his entourage met up. They got on their horses and walked along the Huo Road halfway down the street when they were stopped within a stone's throw. They saw Hu Qi and Zhang Yue leading the way with anxious faces.
Feeling a thump in his heart, he hurriedly went forward. After the two horses happened to cross each other, Hu Qi lowered his voice and said: "Sir, the person who was alive last night has been interrogated. My subordinates did not dare to delay, so they went straight to the Yamen and found that
If you're not around, I'll be waiting here."
"No need to say more, go back to the Yamen!"
The news of the fire in the palace shocked the dignitaries from all over the capital. The nobles who had been living happily in the newly built gardens on the east and west coast of Shichahai moved back to the old mansion almost immediately. Except for Mrs. Wang, her children and
Yi Ying's wife and concubines were waiting in the British Park without moving. The original house was too small, and the ancestral hall and so on were built here. Naturally, she would not get upset because of the slightest movement, not to mention that the ancestor worship was just half a month later, and there was still a person.
The pregnant aunt is expecting to give birth.
Although he had not moved his home, the news at home was still well informed. Early that morning, Rong Shan brought the news about last night's Beicheng Soldiers and Horses Division's night attack on a house in Toutangzi Hutong behind the Dingguo Palace. At noon, more accurate news came again
It was said that the commander of the troops and horses got the message that he was a thief, and the commander of the troops and horses went out to take advantage of the merit, but it turned out that it was the King of Liang. Although the people were sent back now, the commander of the troops and horses had already stopped talking, and the commander of the troops and horses even more
They were in panic all day long. However, both Rong Shan who reported the matter and Mrs. Wang who listened to the matter fell into a long silence after asking and answering questions for a while.
Just when Rong Shan outside the door was about to say goodbye, a daughter-in-law from outside hurriedly ran over. Seeing that something was still going on here, she hesitated for a moment before stepping forward and said with a smile: "Mrs. Qi, Zhang Shilang's house sent someone to report.
News, the third young lady is happy again."
Mrs. Wang, who was meditating with her eyes closed, suddenly opened her eyes, thought for a moment and then stood up, her face full of joy: "Brother Yue's wife is really blessed, go and pick out some gifts from the library, especially
The high-quality bird's nest I just got... Wait, get your things ready, and then go prepare the car. I'll go and see her in person."
Everyone in the family knew that Mrs. Wang liked Du Wan, so they didn't take it seriously. Although Rongshan immediately resigned after hearing this, he knew in his heart that although the Zhang family sent someone to announce the good news, it was not false, but it should be a drunkard's behavior.
I don't care about wine. I just respect the elders and the younger ones. If you want Mrs. Wang to go there in person, there must be a good excuse.
