The next day, the sixth day of the first lunar month
Early in the morning, Jia Heng went to the Jingying Jieshuai camp, summoned the generals of Guoyong camp in the barracks, as well as the governor's colleague Qi Jihui and others, left the Jieshuai camp and went to Shiliting in the north of the city.
Farewell Li Zan, the great scholar of Wuyingdian, who left Beijing for the border.
The willows on the street seem to have been bathed in the early spring breeze, with a few green buds sprouting from their branches.
Official sedans and horse-drawn carriages were parked beside the road, and some officials were arriving one after another. They talked together in twos and threes, and the white hot air they blew up quickly dissipated.
Many of them are Li Zan's disciples and former officials, and some are colleagues and subordinates in Beijing.
In addition, two great scholars from the Zhejiang and Qi parties, Han Huang and Yang Guochang, also sent their sons Han Hui and Yang Sihong to see him off on behalf of their fathers, and the King of Chu, who was in charge of the Arsenal Department of the Ministry of War, came to see him off in person.
It is also because it is still the New Year, so it is difficult to say that it will delay official business.
Seeing Jia Heng, a young man who has become very popular in the capital these days, coming to see him off, the officials who were waiting for him looked at each other, and they could see something strange in each other's eyes.
Officials who originally thought that Li Zan had left the center and that their future was uncertain felt a little gurgling in their hearts.
The generals in the capital sent each other off, which had a strong political meaning.
"I'm afraid that in two or three years, when Academician Li returns to Beijing with great honors, he will be able to advance to the rank of Shou Ke." King Chu looked deeply, thinking.
At this moment, Li Zan was talking to Shi Jie, the Minister of War. He looked up and saw Jia Heng and a group of generals seeing each other off, with very surprised expressions on their faces.
Jia Heng and other generals dismounted from their horses and came forward to greet him, "Mr. Ge."
"Ziyu." Li Zan smiled and called loudly: "Why are you here?"
Jia Heng said: "Come here to see Mr. Ge off and give him a glass of water and wine."
At this time, Li Zan's son, Li Yi, carried a wooden plate filled with sake. He looked at the boy in the python suit with some curiosity, then looked at Li Zan, with a solemn expression, and called out in a low voice: "Father."
Li Zan nodded, took the wine cup, and said, "It's not a good idea to drink too much on this trip, but since Ziyu is here to see me off, I have to drink this glass of wine."
Jia Heng raised the wine cup and said loudly: "Mr. Ge, we are going here. The road to Guanshan is dangerous and the northern country is windy and cold. Please take care of yourself, Mr. Ge."
The faces of all the officials present were moved, and they all sensed a certain emotion of trust from the young man's brief words.
Li Zan took the wine cup on the side and drank a glass. His thin, cold cheeks suddenly turned red. He raised his eyes and looked at Jia Heng and said, "Ziyu is in the capital. Everything about organizing the army depends on Ziyu."
At this time, several horses came from the direction of Shenjing City. They rode their horses and raised their whips. The horses' hooves sounded fast and everyone looked at them.
The leader was none other than Dai Quan, the Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty, who, accompanied by the bodyguard Ban Zhi, followed Emperor Chongping's oral instructions to see Li Zan off.
Dai Quan got off his horse, stepped forward quickly, and took a mink fur cloak from the guard at the side.
"Mr. Li Ge, the Holy Father has decreed that in early spring, when it is warm and cold, I took this mink fur coat with me on the road for warmth. Please don't refuse," Dai Quan said with a smile.
Li Zan's lips under his beard moved, wanting to say something to reject him, but in the end he did not say anything. The eyes under his thin brows seemed to be looking through heavy smoke and clouds, looking in the direction of Shenjing, saluting and saying: "My lord, thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness.
"
At this time, Li Yi on the side took the mink fur and said: "Father, my son will put it on you."
Li Zan said "hmm".
Seeing this scene of a loving father and a son showing filial piety, everyone twirled their beards with their hands, nodded frequently, and secretly said that Academician Li is indeed a home of poetry, calligraphy and etiquette.
At this time, the guard Ban Zhi who accompanied the retinue came forward and said: "Mr. Ge, it's getting late, it's time to set off."
Li Zan glanced at the colleagues around him and said loudly: "Everyone, please go back."
Everyone bowed deeply and said, "Take care, Sir."
Li Zan got on the carriage, and his son Li Yi would also accompany him to Peiping. After Li Zan settled down, he would return to the capital again.
In the fifteenth year of Chongping, on the sixth day of the first lunar month, Li Zan, a scholar from Wuyingdian Palace and Secretary of the Ministry of War, came out of Beiping. The emperor appointed Youyan as the envoy of economic strategy and pacification, armed with Shangfang Baojian, and commanded the military affairs of Hebei, Shandong and Shanxi.
Watching the motorcade and the retinue gradually go away, the officials present were talking to each other and gradually dispersed in twos and threes.
At this time, King Chen Qin of Chu led Feng Ci, the chief registrar of the palace, and Liao Xian, the chief historian, to Jia Heng's side. With a smile on his jade-like face, he said: "Master Jia is free at noon, and the little king is in the palace for a briefing."
I have prepared a small banquet, can you show me your honor and have a chat with me?"
It is worth mentioning that Jia Heng was awarded a baron, but officials did not often call him a baron. They could only call him a baron in person.
Jia Heng raised his eyes to look at King Chu, took a look, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I have to go back to the capital camp to deal with military affairs in the past few days, so I may not have time. I hope you will forgive me."
Accepting the King of Chu's banquet in front of so many people, I'm afraid there will be rumors in the capital soon, not to mention that Dai Quan is leading the palace servants to watch not far away.
This King of Chu was very good at porcelain.
Although the King of Chu felt displeased at being humiliated, the smile on his face did not diminish. In other words, this man was originally tolerant and could not express his emotions and anger. He smiled and said: "When Mr. Jia is free, Xiao Wang will do it again."
Invited."
Jia Heng nodded and said nothing more. Instead, he came to Dai Quan and asked, "Eunuch Dai, is your Majesty in the palace at the moment?"
Dai Quan glanced at King Chu, smiled and said, "Your Majesty is in the palace."
Jia Heng underwent plastic surgery and calmed down his expression, and said: "I am about to enter the palace to meet the Holy Spirit. My father-in-law can go with me."
As soon as Li Zan went to Peking, the emperor must have been more disappointed than anyone else at the moment. It was an emotion intertwined with expectation and worry. If he didn't go to establish a sense of presence at this time, when would he go?
Jia Heng explained to the generals in the Beijing camp behind him and asked them to return to their camps.
Looking at the departing figures of Jia Heng and Dai Quan, the King of Chu looked blank and turned around to return to the carriage. Palace Chief Shi Fengci and Liao Xian entered the carriage.
As the carriage turned raggedly, King Chu took a deep breath and whispered: "This Jia Heng is becoming more and more powerful."
Obviously being rejected in public, the prince was also a little unhappy.
Liao Xian said: "When Mr. Li Ge leaves, there are many people in the imperial court who know the military, but the emperor's confidant is only Jia Ziyu. Your Majesty, a little impatience will mess up the big plan."
King Chu said: "How could I not know this? I just wanted to apologize to him for what happened to the Jia family's daughter before, and I didn't want to lose even this little face."
Feng Ci said: "Your Majesty, a little impatience will mess up a big plan."
King Chu looked deeply and said in a low voice: "I am awake."
Let’s talk about Jia Heng later, following Dai Quan as they walked side by side towards the sacred city and entered the palace garden.
Daming Palace, inner study room
Emperor Chongping stood in front of a map with his hands behind his hands, looking at the map of the Han border town, silently thinking, looking at the location of Beiping Mansion.
As Jia Heng expected, Emperor Chongping was indeed mentally ill.
If a cabinet scholar goes out to control northern Xinjiang and still cannot resist the barbarians, what should he do?
There are also people who will know the military affairs in the DPRK and the candidates for the Military Aircraft Department have yet to be determined.
"Your Majesty, Eunuch Dai is back, and Mr. Jia, the governor of Guoyong Camp, has also come to see your Majesty." At this time, a chamberlain came in and whispered.
Emperor Chongping looked back, a smile appeared on his cold face, and said: "I am about to summon Jia Ziyu and ask him to come in."
After a while, Xiang Daiquan of the Daming Palace led a young man wearing a python suit and a mountain-shaped crown on his head and quickly walked into the palace.
"I have met Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty. Long live Your Majesty." Jia Heng stood up, looked at the middle-aged emperor standing in front of the map of mountains and rivers, and paid his respects.
"Jia Qingping." Emperor Chongping called out, then without saying much, he looked at Dai Quan and asked, "Grand Scholar Li is gone."
Dai Quan said: "Your Majesty, you have already left for Peiping."
When Emperor Chongping heard this, his expression was silent for a while, then he looked at Jia Heng and asked, "Jia Qing, can you go and see me off?"
Jia Heng replied: "I just led the generals from the capital camp to see off Mr. Li Ge."
Emperor Chongping nodded and said, "Now that Li Qing has left, I hope there will be some changes in the border affairs in Northern Xinjiang."
With that said, he called the eunuch and said, "Give Jia Qing a seat."
After Emperor Chongping also came to Tiaoyu, he sat down, picked up a piece of silk at hand, and said: "Ziyu came at the right time. The selection of personnel for the military aircraft department is determined, and there are still more to be added to the commanders. You are the first to advocate the military aircraft department, but you can
Let’s take a look first, and if there is nothing wrong, we will ask the cabinet to draft a decree the next day and it will be famous both at home and abroad.”
With that said, he winked at Dai Quan and showed the prepared list to Jia Heng for reading.
Jia Heng said: "I don't dare."
In making such personnel appointments, he strictly abide by his duties as a minister.
Emperor Chongping said: "It doesn't matter, we have already decided on the candidate. If there is anything wrong, you can speak out."
The Military Aircraft Department was originally set up as a temporary dispatch. It was more of an organization used by Emperor Chongping to evade the power of the cabinet in border affairs. The final decision-maker was Emperor Chongping.
Jia Heng made a face and looked calm, took it with both hands, and was a little surprised when he saw the first line.
Li Zan, Minister of Military and Aircraft, Grand Bachelor of Wuyingdian, Cabinet Member, and Minister of War.
Emperor Chongping said: "I think that if I add Li Qing as Minister of Military and Aircraft, I can make it clear that I am in charge of military and state affairs. In a few days, the decree will be passed on."
This is also a common practice. In addition, Emperor Chongping also prepared an imperial edict adding Li Zan as Shaobao, which he planned to send to Li Zan after he arrived in Peiping and established the framework of the Economic Strategy and Appeasement Department.
This has the same meaning as adding officials along the way to show honor and favor.
Jia Heng said: "The Holy Ming, Mr. Li Ge is guarding the northern border, and military information exchanges require advance notice of aircraft operations. From now on, it is necessary to grant military aircraft."
If you leave the cabinet, you leave the center. If you don't add military personnel, if the Minister of War, who was originally in charge of a country's military affairs, is transferred to the local government, it will be suspected of being demoted.
"The Sword Comes"
Next, I looked down and saw the list of names written on it.
He was awarded the title of first-class male, Deputy Envoy of the Jingying Camp, and Commander-in-Chief of the Guoyong Camp, Jia Heng.
"Check" and "fake" actually mean temporary.
In fact, even the full name of Jingying Jiedushi is "Jingxiao Jingwei Tuanying Jiedushi", which is abbreviated as Jingying Jiedushi. Only a few people can take the word "Jingxiao" out of it.
He has served the emperor for decades and is a loyal minister.
After all, his qualifications are still relatively low and he has no choice but to go through school inspections.
From this it can be seen that the emperor promoted him to a higher position, and did not directly give him the post of Jiedu envoy of the Beijing camp. Instead, he left it vacant. Without other deputy envoys to restrain him, he could use the emperor's sword to intimidate the generals.
This is also the check and balance of the emperor's mind.
If he was unreliable, Emperor Chongping could appoint another regiment and camp deputy envoy as the deputy envoy of the Beijing camp at any time, or appoint the commander-in-chief of the Fifth Army and the Minister of War to command the Beijing camp.
Of course, his qualifications are relatively low, and it would be appropriate for him to be promoted to the rank of Deputy Envoy of Jingying Jiedu. It is difficult to say that he is being guarded against.
The subsequent military minister was Yan Ye, the commander-in-chief of the rear army and the king of Nan'an County.
Former military governor and Prince Shuirong of Beijing County.
Shi Jie, the Minister of War.
It was probably as he had guessed. At the beginning, he thought that if the Minister of War joined the Military Aircraft Department and suddenly raised the status of the Military Aircraft Department too high, he might cause some unnecessary trouble in the civil service group, and then Li Zan would not
It is necessary to enter the military aircraft office.
But if you think about it carefully, as Emperor Chongping did, it was precisely based on the principle of civil and military control, which could actually reduce some resistance.
Of course, maybe Li Zan was in the front so that he could have a certain say. Otherwise, the Prince of Nan'an County must be the chief military minister.
Although it never says who is the chief, the officialdom is sorted. If the seniority of Nan'an County Prince is the chief, then what the Minister of Military and Aircraft will do will be determined by the Governor's Office of the Fifth Army.
However, he was ranked second, but his qualifications were shallow, which gave everyone the impression that except for the chief executive, everyone else had the same right to speak.
As for the other military ministers.
It is not that Chen Han did not have other important military ministers, such as the king of Xining County in the northwest and the king of Dongping County in Yunnan. These two major military groups controlled the south and northwest, but they were both figures for the country's screen vassal. If they want to be transferred to the center, they need the emperor's personal courtesy.
, a military aircraft department alone is obviously not enough position.
There were also the governors of the world, such as Gao Zhongping, the governor of Sichuan. This man was also known for his strategies and cruel methods. He controlled the Bashu region and had monopolized military and political power for more than ten years. He was also a strong supporter of Emperor Chongping when he was in his residence.
But this kind of temporary assignment from the Military Aircraft Department is obviously not enough to allow them to go to Beijing.
Although Prince Shuirong of Beijing was young, he was also quite good at martial arts. In the original work, he was sent out by the emperor many times to check the border. Now that he entered the military aircraft department, it seems that Emperor Chongping sent a signal to paralyze the four kings and eight princes.
Jia Heng handed the name in his hand to Dai Quan who was standing aside, and said: "Your Majesty has a unique discernment in selecting and employing people, and I have no objection."
It is quite a privilege for him to check this kind of personnel appointment in advance. In addition, he is the first to advocate the benefits of the Military Aircraft Department, so he can comment at will.
Emperor Chongping nodded and said: "The five military ministers are all on temporary assignment, and there will be adjustments in the future. However, there are still vacancies for the seventh minister. Does Jia Qing have any candidates to recommend?"
Jia Heng said without hesitation: "I recommend Hang Min, a doctor in the Ministry of War's military selection of Qing officials. This officer is quite capable and can be assigned to military aircraft and assist in military affairs."
Emperor Chongping said: "Li Qing also recommended this person before leaving. It seems that he is indeed a talented person. What about the others?"
A secretary is just a clerk, which is much worse than a military minister.
Jia Heng pondered and said: "I am in a hurry and I have no one to choose. Can I allow you to think about it?"
Emperor Chongping smiled and said: "There is no rush. Each military aircraft can recommend one or two people for selection. If there are suitable candidates, it is not limited to seven people."
They are all temporary assignments anyway, and whoever recommends them will be responsible if anything goes wrong.
And it’s not just Jia Heng who recommends, every military aircraft must recommend one or two people.
It is conceivable that if it spreads, it will cause officials in the capital to run around. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get in front of the emperor.
Jia Heng nodded and said yes.
Emperor Chongping glanced at the young man and muttered: "Dai Quan, let the cabinet draw up an edict and promote Jia Heng to the position of Deputy Envoy of the Jingying Camp. He will supervise the training affairs of the regiment camp and control the armies with the Emperor's Sword."
As soon as this decree came out, Jia Heng was officially appointed as deputy envoy to inspect the Jingying camp, control the twelve regiments and camps, take over the training, and rectify the affairs.
Jia Heng stood up from his seat, bowed and worshiped: "I thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."
At this point, once Li Zan left, the dust of his management of the Beijing camp had settled, and he could then make great achievements and make great achievements.
Looking at the high-spirited face with excitement, Emperor Chongping felt a little happy. He smiled and said: "Dai Quan, it's almost noon. I asked the imperial dining room to prepare a banquet. I and Jia Qing were drinking and talking.
."
Jia Heng pondered for a moment and said: "When I serve the capital camp, military affairs should be the most important thing. It is really difficult for me to dispatch the military and horse divisions of the five cities. I would like to ask the Holy Spirit to select other talents to take on the important task of public security in the capital."
Emperor Chongping was surprised, pondered for a moment, and said: "Those who are able will do more work. You will first take charge of the five-city army and horse department. It will not be too late to wait until suitable candidates are found."
The chief was anxious, and there was no good candidate to take over. Moreover, he also wanted to see whether the son's character and his ability to keep his true intentions in getting along with the Wei Dynasty.
When Jia Heng heard this, he had no choice but to agree.
This is an attitude. After he has completely established himself in the Beijing camp, about a year or so, he will try to resign from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division again.
