Chapter 41 Starfall (1)
He, Li Jinglong, deliberately plagiarized Xie Jin's words.
Xie Jin was named the calligraphy teacher of the prince and was named by the emperor at the court meeting today. He is very loyal to the holy family.
When the emperor suddenly wanted to build such a new yamen, Li Jinglong didn't know any news in advance, so he must find Xie Jin to test it. It's best to ask what he could find, but it's okay if he couldn't find it. He just thought it was to contact him.
If something comes out, it will be an unexpected surprise.
"Yang Rong is from Fujian, yes!"
In the carriage, Li Jinglong kept thinking that he had not looked at Yang Rong's resume, who had not been much higher than before.
The Independent Yuan’s ministry is Fan Zhao, and the man Li Jinglong wants to stay away from him, but he is a person who can’t get in. In order to avoid suspicion in the future, He Guangyi cannot get too close.
The capable officials selected from various departments, no matter whether they are familiar with him or not, they have no idea how to start.
Only this Yang Rong can do something.
The reason for this is because he is afraid!
At the grand court meeting, the emperor's words made him tremble. Although Li Jinglong did not commit favoritism, bullying men and women, occupying land, etc., he had too many business at home.
The emperor wants to take charge of the administration, if...
I was afraid that if one day a naughty child would come, I found him on Li Jinglong's head.
The wealth of the family is hard to explain. Once it is used by someone with ulterior motives, the consequences will be unimaginable.
As the saying goes, there are people in the court who are easy to be officials, but Li Jinglong also needs to know a little about what is going on in the new yamen.
Besides, in addition to the family's business, there have been more and more foreign officials who have gone through his path over the years. There are some confused officials like Jurong County.
"Tsk!"
In the shaking carriage, Li Jinglong looked angry.
"Oh, why are you doing so much money to get at home over the years?"
Suddenly, a lot of alertness immediately arose in his heart.
"In the future, we must not do anything to help people clear their conversations. Do the errands assigned by the emperor, and do other personnel and affairs without any responsibility."
"My official has reached the top, and it's just that there is nothing more than just a few false titles. Is it not that I want to lead the army? Do you think it's too tiring? Why are you trying to do something?"
Immediately afterwards, he began to murmur in his heart.
"The so-called "someone who is not slapping a smile" is now about to make a comeback. It is not harmful to have more friends. He Guangyi, take one step at a time!"
Then his face was full of anger again.
"The little beast was studying hard at the beginning, but now he was the prince's companion? Why is he still a guard? I have to take the opportunity to find a gaze elsewhere!"
What he cursed in his heart was his son Li Qi, because he was a guard. The prince was studying in Wenhua Palace, and his son could only stand outside and was not even qualified to listen.
The carriage swayed, and I don’t know how long it took to return to Duke Cao’s mansion. I didn’t enter through the front door, but then went directly to the back door and drove into the Li family’s horse number.

The picture changes, Le Zhizhai.
Zhu Yunyu had just had a meal and sat on the kang holding a tea bowl and flipping through the memorial in his hand.
These are all secrets, all of which are reported by commanders and commanders of the generals and officers of various places, such as the autumn harvest of military farms and the training of war horses and armies.
"The garrison station is in the military field?"
Zhu Yunyu lifted up the red pen and drew a red circle on a memorial, circled these words.
The old man once said, "I raise a million soldiers and don't spend a grain of rice on the people."
The Ming Dynasty's garrisons built farming and raising soldiers actually gathered the experiences of all dynasties and integrated farming into soldiers. If there is war, they would be transferred to fight, and if there is no war, they would be farmed for the people.
In later generations, such a system was criticized by many people, but Zhu Yunyu's opinion, there is no perfect system, only a system suitable for the times.
The military camp was in charge of farming and raising soldiers. This was not the original creation of the Ming Dynasty. In history, the army that could fight was perseverance only. The military camp was in charge of farming, which was exactly the original intention of the military camp.
But there is an unavoidable problem among them, that is, all soldiers are military households, and are hereditary military households.
The hereditary military household had one male soldier in the family, and the other children were the rest of the family. The military household did not serve in the same place since birth. Instead, they had to guard the border and traveled thousands of miles away.
If you have a family, you have to bring your family together. According to the military law of the Ming Dynasty, you should give land and houses, but in fact, there will always be uneven distribution of resources for so many soldiers.
Moreover, these military households were different from the Eight Banners children who were professional soldiers in the early Qing Dynasty. These military households implemented a system of border guarding and farming in the garrison. Moreover, most of the food they planted had to be handed over to serve as military rations.
The life of military households is very hard, even harder than that of ordinary people.
Especially those benefactors who were exiled for crimes, their lives are even more difficult. The relationship between superiors and subordinates in the army and other matters are much simpler and cruder than civil servants.
The long-term departure from his hometown and his hard life have led to many military households becoming deserters. The archived records of the Ministry of War have exceeded 40,000 deserters in Hongwu in just three years.
And in the future, if the national strength is stable, there will be more and more such numbers.
It is said that martial arts preparations in prosperous times are relaxed because there is no need for war, and their status and treatment have plummeted.
In fact, the Ming Dynasty was indeed the case. Historical records record that Zhengtong's deserters were almost 170,000 in three years. During the Jiajing period, the Ming Empire had only more than 900,000 registered soldiers, and these were all soldiers who were just mixed with pearls and scattered.
The hereditary generals, Qianhu and others in the garrison have all become landlords, and those military households have become tenants. How can such an army fight?
At this time, the turtle came quietly and said softly, "Long live the emperor, He Guangyi will meet you!"
"Xuan!" Zhu Yunsheng said.
After a while, He Guangyi, who was exhausted, came in from outside, "My memory, He Guangyi, came to see the emperor!"
"Move him a bunch!" Zhu Yunxi continued to look at the cliff, "Are you just coming back?"
"I just entered the capital!" He Guangyi did not sit down, but replied, "I thought that Long Live the Emperor would meet me, but I didn't care about washing and changing clothes, so I dared to enter the palace!"
"How is the matter done?" Zhu Yunxiu asked.
"The White Lotus Sect in Shaanxi has been completely wiped out, and the White Lotus Sect leader Li Puzhi is... in the hands of that person. He is leading people to continue to search for the remnants of the White Lotus Sect everywhere!" As he said that, he paused, "Catch and kill!"
The one He Guangyi mentioned refers to Mao Xiang.
Zhu Yunxi finally looked up and looked at He Guangyi, who was a little embarrassed because of the road. "You Jinyiwei is okay with the affairs of the official side, but it is also a ferocious hunting dog for those white lotus rats!"
"I know what he killed. What are some people who stay in the world without repentance? Good days, but I have to believe in Miller Buddha? Then just go see his Maitreya Buddha!"
Speaking of this, Zhu Yunxi pointed down on the stool and looked solemn, "Sit down, I have something to ask you!"
"Yes!" He Guangyi sat down. For some reason, he was completely unhappy in his heart, but full of anxiety.
Before Zhu Yunxiu spoke, he glanced at the door and the eunuch outside had already withdrawn ten steps away.
"There are many deserters in the army on the White Lotus Sect, but it's true?"
"Yes, I dare not lie. Many of the backbone and killers of the White Lotus Sect are military deserters!" As he said that, he thought about it, "There are almost one or two hundred people except for the interrogation in the capital."
Speaking of this, he looked at Zhu Yunxi's face and said with a tough bullet, "Actually, there are some deserters every year. Especially in border areas such as Shaanxi and Gansu, it is too difficult and has been licking blood on the blade all year round."
"Some soldiers are homesick, some think that Shangguan is unfair, and some just doomed people!"
Zhu Yunxiong's face became solemn, "So many deserters, whether it is the garrisons or the general of the Dushi, he did not mention a single word in the memorial!"
He Guangyi dared not answer this.
"Come!" Zhu Yunxiu spoke to the door.
The turtle came in, "I am here!"
Zhu Yunxiu didn't say anything, picked up his pen and wrote on a blank piece of rice paper, "Well, the generals of the various capitals and commanders of the provinces will take turns to the Beijing to meet!"
Since he ascended the throne, he has not seen these local guards in person.
