Chapter 1048: Minister of Nanjing Ministry of Industry
., update the latest chapters as soon as possible!
The first people to receive the news that Zhu Hao was transferred to Nanjing as Minister of Industry were four cabinet ministers.
Fei Hong was summoned by Zhu Si alone. The emperor seemed to have never paid so much attention to Fei Hong. During this meeting, Zhu Si mainly mentioned two things. One was to ask Zhu Hao to go to Nanjing, and the other was to discuss with Fei Hong the entry of Yang Yiqing.
At the same time, it is necessary to determine who should be given the post of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel left by Yang Yiqing.
"My idea is to transfer someone from the current cabinet to take up the post of Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. I wonder what Mr. Fei Ge thinks?"
Zhu Si somewhat wants to disrupt the current cabinet structure.
In the cabinet, Shi Yun and Jia Yong are both members of the ritual protection faction. Recently, the cabinet has been passive and conservative in voting on some memorials and in communicating with the six ministries. Zhu Si was very angry and felt that the current
The personnel structure of the cabinet is very unreasonable.
The best way is to get one of Shi Yun or Jia Yongzhong out, or even drive them away together.
Fei Hong said: "Shi Yue once served as the official secretary, so he may have experience."
He just expressed his most intuitive feelings without mixing in any personal emotions.
Zhu Si nodded.
In fact, Fei Hong could see that the so-called transfer of a cabinet scholar to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel was just to look good. It was estimated that this person would not be the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel for more than two months before he would be ordered to return to his hometown.
One of Shi Yun or Jia Yongzhong must be ousted by the emperor because of his stance.
"Who else in the court is suitable to be the Minister of Civil Affairs?" Zhu Si asked.
Fei Hong said: "I don't know how to recommend him, but currently among the six ministers and ministers, there are officials who can take on this important task. Even in the Nanjing officialdom... there are also suitable people."
Fei Hong would not directly recommend Huang Zan.
In fact, Fei Hong knew that if Shi Yue did not come to be the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, he would probably hand over the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel to Huang Zan. Apart from these two people, he really could not think of a more suitable candidate.
"Jingdao may leave for Nanjing after a while, and he won't stay in Nanjing for too long. His mission is to help me complete an important thing."
Zhu Si did not mention that Zhu Hao wanted to find the elixir of immortality for him. It was just a beautiful wish. Zhu Si felt that he was young and should not worry about this problem for the time being.
Fei Hong would naturally not comment on this. Zhu Hao leaving the capital was a good thing for him.
"Your Majesty, there is currently no heir in the country. I would like to ask your Majesty to accept concubines."
Fei Hong put forward his suggestion.
Zhu Si nodded.
The ministers were no longer anxious about the concubine. The one who was most anxious was the Empress Dowager Chiang. The mother-in-law was obsessed with the fact that the bellies of these daughters-in-law had not moved, and she was afraid that Zhu Si would follow in the footsteps of his cousin.
"Okay, I'll remember it. Let's talk about it later."
Zhu Si was not very interested in having concubines.
It's because he feels that he is in the prime of life, why should he be in a hurry to have children?
I am still a child myself.
Zhu Si even felt that I was a good emperor, so why did I have to establish a prince? What are you thinking about after death? If I die, will it make any difference who will be the emperor?
…
…
Before Zhu Hao left Beijing, he stayed in Taiqing Temple.
Occasionally, people came to visit. When they saw that he was doing nothing in Taiqing Temple, or even just escaping from the world, the visitors felt that Zhu Hao might be pursuing Tang Yin's state of idle clouds and wild cranes with no desires and no desires.
After Liu Chun learned from Fei Hong that Zhu Hao was going to take a post in Nanjing, he came to Taiqing to visit Zhu Hao twice.
At the second time, the emperor had already announced in the court that Zhu Hao would be appointed Minister of the Ministry of Industry in Nanjing.
There was some opposition, but not much, because Zhu Hao's transfer to Nanjing seemed to be something that everyone could accept, as long as Zhu Hao did not stay in the capital and interfere with the stability of the court.
"Jingdao, I really don't understand, what are you planning on?"
Liu Chun asked with a slumped face, "A few days ago, I exchanged letters with a comrade. After he learned about your current situation, he was secretly worried about you. Since you want to make a difference in the court, you shouldn't care about others.
If you have the prejudice and ability, why don’t you want to show it, but just avoid it?”
Liu Chun persuaded Zhu Hao to cheer up.
Zhu Hao smiled and said: "Mr. Liu Ge, isn't it nice of me to do this?"
Liu Chun shook his head repeatedly: "No, very bad!"
Zhu Haodao: "Actually, it would be good for everyone if I go to the south... I go out to practice for a few years. Didn't Mr. Sun have the same idea before he left? I am still too young and lack qualifications. I am not like Zhang Bingyong, who is as young as
The old man passed the Jinshi examination. Although we are in the same department, there is something convincing about his conduct."
"Jingdao, if you can be convinced by your age, the most basic justice in the world will not exist. Your Majesty has great trust in you because you have done a lot for the court. His Majesty recognizes you, and many ministers also recognize you.
.”
When Liu Chun said this, he obviously believed it deeply.
Zhu Hao smiled: "Except for foreigner Liu Ge, there are still too few people in the court who believe in me... Since I can't achieve anything in the court, I'd better think about how to do something for the people of Ming Dynasty."
Liu Chundao: "Jingdao, I have always had a question, and I don't know whether I should express it. Your goal is not to be a civil servant, but to gain a title with military merit and ensure the prosperity of your family forever?"
Because Liu Chun's face was serious, Zhu Hao could tell that Liu Chun was not joking.
"Why would Mr. Liu Ge have such an idea?"
Zhu Hao didn't even want to be a civil servant, and he was even less interested in being a military officer.
In the Ming Dynasty, although Wu Xun could pass down the title from generation to generation, he could not challenge the civil servants at all.
Zhu Hao has not even completed anything in this life, so naturally he will not think about passing on the incense of the old Zhu family. This is probably the same as Zhu Si's thoughts. I haven't even figured it out yet, so why worry about future generations?
?
Liu Chundao said: "I think that if you are interested in serving as a minister, and His Majesty asks you to join the cabinet, you can just agree. You are young, and in a few years when old guys like us will retire, you will be the chief minister, and you will not be able to use your power.
Political ambitions? Why resist?
"On the contrary, you have always been interested in mining and making firearms. It seems that you are more willing to lead troops outside. I have thought about it, but I really can't think of any other reason. At such a young age, you have not experienced anything like Bohu's.
What a mess, why do you have such negative thoughts?"
Zhu Hao smiled and said: "Don't think too much, Mr. Liu. I just want to change the times in my own way. I have told many people this, but unfortunately no one can understand it. It's just because of different ambitions."
…
…
With Zhu Si having decided to appoint Zhu Hao as Minister of the Ministry of Industry in Nanjing, and after the official appointment by the Ministry of Personnel, it was certain that Zhu Hao would go south.
Many people wanted to visit Zhu Hao, especially when they knew that Zhu Hao had come all the way to see him behind the Taiqing Temple, so that Zhu Hao had to have people stop him at the entrance of the Taoist temple to ensure that he could spend a few days in peace inside the Taoist temple.
day.
Just as Zhu Hao was leaving Beijing, Zhu Si seemed to want Zhu Hao to do something for him one last time, which was to thoroughly investigate the "ghosts" in the former Prince Xing's palace.
Wang Zuo, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, came to see Zhu Hao.
Recently, Wang Zuo's errands have not been going smoothly. He was summoned by Zhu Si several times to scold him, and there was even an intention to replace him. Therefore, Wang Zuo is very cautious about the matters at hand.
"...Jin Yiwei previously found out that there is a Jin Yiwei agent in Prince Xing's Mansion. He has been spying on Prince Xing's Mansion for a long time and informed the court that he had thought of questioning the Zhu family... but His Majesty did not allow it..."
It was actually difficult for Wang Zuo to push this matter forward.
The reason is that the vanguard used by the imperial court to monitor Prince Xing's Mansion was the Zhu family behind Zhu Hao.
Although everyone knew that Zhu Hao had a bad relationship with the Zhu family, it was actually said that Zhu Hao once entered Prince Xing's Mansion as a child to spy on intelligence.
Wang Zuo couldn't skip the Zhu family, so he found out the details of the former palace.
Zhu Hao frowned and asked: "Times have changed. At that time, everyone was considered his own master. Do we have to find out?"
Wang Zuo asked: "Then what do you mean, sir, don't... stop the investigation?"
Wang Zuo also had a headache. It was not up to him to decide whether to investigate or not. Now the emperor asked him to investigate. Even if the details in the palace at that time were for the imperial court, who made the palace now represent the orthodoxy of the imperial court?
"Commander Wang, please let me think about it again." Zhu Hao said, "Oh, by the way, why haven't I seen Luo Zhenfu and the others recently? But what important errands are there?"
Wang Zuodao: "Jin Yiwei has to go in and out of Xishan frequently, and things in Xishan never stop."
"Um."
Zhu Hao nodded, "Recall Lu Qianhu back to me later. I want to take him with me when I go south."
Zhu Hao originally intended to send Lu Song to Tianjin, but because Lu Song had been working hard in Xishan for many years, it may also be because he felt that as a spy in the former Prince Xing's palace, he was a bit sorry for his colleagues. In the past two years, he has rarely seen his wife Fan.
.
Wang Zuo clasped his fists: "I will transfer Lu Qianhu back when I return from my humble position for you to drive around!"
…
…
Wang Zuo didn't know that Lu Song was a spy. In the minds of the old people in the Royal Palace's Yiwei Department, Lu Song had always been a good old man who worked conscientiously.
In addition, Lu Song has a wife who is deeply trusted by the Empress Dowager Chiang, which also gives him an "aura" of nepotism. No matter whether others think highly of Lu Song or not, at least Lu Song has not offended anyone, and Lu Song and Lu Song
Tang Yin and Zhu Hao have always had a good relationship, and their future is bright. Maybe they will be able to become the governor of the town or the commander of the Jin Yiwei in the future?
On this day, Sun Lan came to the Taoist temple to visit her husband.
It was also because Zhu Hao told her that he was leaving for Nanjing recently. Because the head of the Zhu family is currently a member of the Nanjing Jinyiwei Qianhu, Zhu Hao is a bit "returning to his hometown". Sun Lan, as the wife of the Zhu family, has never met except Zhu Hao's mother.
Outside the Zhu family.
Especially now that Zhu Hao's grandfather and grandmother are still alive.
"In five or six days, you leave first." Zhu Hao said, "I will go to Tianjin first, and then take a boat south. We will meet in Nanjing."
There was a hint of running away in Zhu Hao's words.
Sun Lan asked: "Mom and aunt, aren't you leaving?"
Zhu Hao smiled and shook his head: "Even my sister will stay in the capital. They have their own lives."
Zhu Hao's trip to the south this time was not to run away. Besides, there was nothing to run away from. He was just working in a different place. Even if he wanted to go to sea, there was no need to drag his family with him. It seemed enough to take his bed partner with him.
