Chapter 210 Yang Sichang
After thinking about it quietly, Emperor Tianqi suddenly felt that something was wrong, and couldn't help but asked in a deep voice: "Liu Aiqing, I remember that I heard about a Gao Hongtu a few days ago, and he is still under Yuan Yingtai. He seems to be concerned about the affairs of the Ministry of Industry
Quite insightful, I wonder if this is the person Aiqing is talking about?"
After being slightly startled, Liu Yijing also patted his forehead and said with a sudden look on his face: "Yes, Your Majesty, judging from my memory, it is this lofty plan. I remembered that it was me and Mr. Sun who mentioned it in the first place, so I
It’s really confusing to recall him back to the court again.”
After pondering for a moment, Emperor Tianqi asked hesitantly: "Liu Aiqing, Gao Hongtu is currently serving in the Ministry of Industry. Wouldn't it be inappropriate to let him join the cabinet?"
"Your Majesty, I wonder what your Majesty is worried about?" Liu Yijing asked hesitantly as he looked at Emperor Tianqi with some confusion.
"Look, dear sir, Yuan Yingtai, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, has not yet joined the cabinet. Wouldn't it be inappropriate to let Gao Hongtu join the cabinet?" Looking at Liu Yijing, Emperor Tianqi said hesitantly.
After listening to Emperor Tianqi's words, Liu Yijing frowned slightly and said carefully after a while: "Your Majesty, I don't know whether I should take what I said or not?"
"Ai Qing, just say it! There will be no estrangement between Ai Qing and me. If you have anything to say, just say it and I won't blame you!" Emperor Tianqi looked at Liu Yijing and said softly.
"Your Majesty is the Emperor, and this world belongs to Your Majesty. For officials, being an official is actually serving His Majesty. Although the officialdom is a place based on seniority, it is among the ministers, not His Majesty. No matter what
At all times, His Majesty must give people an attitude of appointing people based on their merit. The Emperor is very young now, and must give all officials the feeling that as long as they are talented and sincerely serve the country, no matter their age or seniority, they can do anything.
This is the way to be a king if you are favored by the emperor!" Liu Yijing saluted Emperor Tianqi and said in a deep voice. It is very inappropriate to talk about the way to be a king in front of the emperor.
Yi Jing's last test of Emperor Tianqi.
Nodding slowly, Emperor Tianqi gently helped Liu Yijing up and said with a serious face: "Ai Qing, being loyal to the king and patriotic is the foundation of the country! Ai Qing's words today were like enlightenment.
When I was young, I did not have this blessing. When I become a prince, I will let Aiqing be the prince’s teacher!"
"Your Majesty, I'm scared!" Although Liu Yijing said this, he felt relieved in his heart. Although Emperor Tianqi was young, his mind was really not that broad.
"My dear, I will never be soft on corrupt and cowardly officials, but I will never treat them badly towards officials who are loyal to me after the Ming Dynasty! My dear, I can let you go in the future because I will not blame my dear!
Emperor Tianqi looked at Liu Yijing seriously and said in a deep voice.
Nodding vigorously, Liu Yijing said with great emotion: "Your Majesty, I will serve you to the best of my ability!"
"My dear, I will bring up the matter of recommending cabinet ministers during the next morning court meeting. As for the candidates, apart from today's two people, my dear is thinking about it carefully, and I will think about it too!" Emperor Tianqi's face changed.
"Okay," he said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will retire now!" Liu Yijing said respectfully after saluting Emperor Tianqi.
After Liu Yijing left, Emperor Tianqi thought for a while and ordered Chen Hong on the side: "Find Sun Chuanting and ask him to come quickly!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, the ministers will go immediately!" He bowed to Emperor Tianqi and said respectfully.
Emperor Tianqi was meditating quietly in the hall, his mind constantly turning over and over, thinking about his own thoughts. Not long after, Sun Chuanting walked in under the leadership of Chen Hong.
Looking at Sun Chuanting walking in, Emperor Tianqi felt quite pleased. Although wars broke out in the late Ming Dynasty and there were internal and external troubles, the Ming Dynasty also had a different advantage, that is, talents. Whether it was Sun Chengzong who was far away in Liaodong or Sun Chuanting in front of him.
, are rare talents in the world. Whether it is ability or loyalty, they are rare in history. These talents are the key to revitalizing the Ming Dynasty.
What surprised Emperor Tianqi was that Sun Chuanting was wearing a military uniform, with a helmet and armor, a robe and a belt, and a sword on his waist. At this moment, Emperor Tianqi had the illusion that the person in front of him was not a civil servant, but a shopping mall inn.
General, the Confucian general mentioned by the ancients should refer to Sun Chuanting, a scholar with a martial spirit.
When he came to Emperor Tianqi's side, Sun Chuanting wanted to kneel down. Emperor Tianqi waved his hand gently and said in a deep voice: "I love you, please forgive me!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Sun Chuanting said solemnly as he cupped his fists at Emperor Tianqi.
Nodding slowly, Emperor Tianqi smiled and said: "Ai Qing, is there nothing going on in the third camp?"
"Your Majesty, everything is well!" Sun Chuanting is different from many civil servants. He is not good at words. More often, he likes to do things. He is less rhetorical and more mature and steady, which makes people more trustworthy.
Looking at Sun Chuanting with a capable look on his face, Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "Since Aiqing took charge of the three major battalions, the achievements have been outstanding, and I am very pleased. Now I want to know, how many people are there in the three major battalions now? Can they fight?
"
Slightly startled, Sun Chuanting pondered for a moment, and then said quite seriously: "Your Majesty, the three major battalions originally had 70,000 people. After I arrived at the three major camps, some were eliminated, and there were still 50,000 people. Among them, one of the Shenji Battalions was
Ten thousand, Shenshu Camp has 10,000 people, and the Fifth Army Camp has 50,000 people. As for the issue of fighting, the current three major battalions have not gone through battle formations, and the military discipline in the past was also very loose. The time for me to take over is still short, and I want the three major battalions to have battles.
I’m afraid there’s still some time left.”
Nodding with satisfaction, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "Ai Qing has done a very good job. Among these three battalions, the 10,000-strong Shenji Battalion uses firearms, the 10,000-man Shenshu Battalion uses cavalry, and the three
The Wanwu Army Camp is the infantry. I have always hoped that the three battalions can restore their former glory. I think about how powerful the three battalions were when they accompanied Chengzu to conquer Mongolia. Seeing the three battalions now, I feel very sad.
!”
"Your Majesty, although I do not have the talents of Zhuge Wuhou, I can guarantee that as long as I am given one year, I will be able to train the three major battalions into elites. However, if you want to become an elite in hundreds of battles, that is not something you can train.
, we need to be dragged into the battle formation to fight against Jiannu. I believe that after a few battles, the three battalions will become truly elite!" Sun Chuanting raised his fists towards Emperor Tianqi and said loudly.
Sun Chuanting's words were resounding, while Emperor Tianqi smiled calmly. If someone else had said this, Emperor Tianqi would have scoffed, but when the same words came from Sun Chuanting's mouth, Emperor Tianqi believed that it was true.
Looking at Sun Chuanting, Emperor Tianqi nodded seriously and said in a deep voice: "Aiqing, I know what you said is true, and I believe you can do it. I came to Aiqing today for something else.
, I want to hear Aiqing’s thoughts.”
"If your Majesty has anything to do, just give him your orders, and I will do my best!" Although he didn't know what Emperor Tianqi wanted to say, Sun Chuanting knew the duty of a minister.
After pondering for a moment, Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "Ai Qing must have heard about the affairs in Liaodong. I have been worried about the affairs in Liaodong for some time! Now that things have reached this point, I want to carry out a thorough reform in Liaodong.
Although the reform is divided into two aspects: military and political, the focus is still on the military. After all, Liaodong is always at war."
"Yes, Your Majesty. I have heard a little bit about what happened in Liaodong!" Sun Chuanting said in a deep voice when he saw Emperor Tianqi looking at him.
"Liu Che, the governor of Jiliao, has been imprisoned. This position is very important. I want to put Sun Chengzong here. I have great trust in Sun Chengzong's talent, so there is a shortage of a governor in Liaodong. In the political affairs of Liaodong, there is a governor of Liaodong.
Yang Lian, I have nothing to worry about. But in terms of military affairs, there is only one Liaodong manager, Xiong Tingbi, and I need one person to take charge of Liaodong." Emperor Tianqi looked at Sun Chuanting and said with a serious expression.
Lifting up his shirt and kneeling on the ground, Sun Chuanting said solemnly: "Your Majesty, I am willing to go to Liaodong. As long as your Majesty's sword points, I am willing to be a pawn!"
Helping Sun Chuanting up, Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "I know Ai Qing's loyalty, but not only Liaodong, the men and horses of the three major battalions also need to be led by someone. I am planning to expand the three major battalions and expand the men and horses of the three major battalions.
To 100,000, what I need is an elite three battalions."
Looking at Sun Chuanting, Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "I won't worry if this matter is left to someone who is incompetent. Both parties need to love you, and I will be in a dilemma!"
After listening to Emperor Tianqi's words, Sun Chuanting was also in a dilemma. According to his inner thoughts, he really wanted to go to Liaodong. Although he was taking the path of a civil servant, Sun Chuanting in his heart hoped to be able to kill in the field. Liaodong is the place where heroes can use their skills.
.But if the three major camps are expanded, it is indeed a big deal, and I can’t get away from it!
After pondering for a long time, Sun Chuanting said happily: "Your Majesty, I think of someone who can take my place!"
Looking at Sun Chuanting with some surprise, Emperor Tianqi couldn't wait to ask: "Who? Aiqing, please tell me!"
"Your Majesty, you are Yang Sichang, the son of Yang He, the imperial censor of Zuodu. Yang Sichang knows military affairs from below and is a rare talent. Letting Yang Sichang take charge of the three people will be absolutely foolproof, and he will definitely be able to train an elite army for your majesty."
After giving a salute to Emperor Tianqi, Sun Chuanting said loudly.
After hearing Sun Chuanting's words, Emperor Tianqi was slightly startled. The name Yang Sichang was very familiar to Emperor Tianqi. He had never thought of it before, but after Sun Chuanting's reminder, Emperor Tianqi finally remembered it.
Seeing that Emperor Tianqi did not show joy, Sun Chuanting's heart sank. It seemed that Emperor Tianqi knew about Yang Sichang. There must be something he didn't know about, but Emperor Tianqi trusted Yang He so much, so he should have more trust in his son.
