"Wise words, now the front line is urgently awaiting military supplies. If you are allowed to shirk the blame here, I'm afraid the soldiers in the front will be hungry!"
"If due to your negligence, the front line is unstable, Who of you can be responsible for this?" He Gujin asked again.
He was very active today because he discovered a very critical situation. The more active he is about Zhu Jinghong, the faster his promotion will be.
If he asks himself, he must admit that he is still less concerned about Prince Xiang's Mansion than Jia Yucun.
In order to prevent his former subordinates from getting ahead of him, He Gujin worked hard to earn performance.
"He Zhongcheng, don't be angry... let's talk it over if you have anything to say!"
The person who spoke was Xu Xinan. Although he was only the inspector of Jinling, he had served as the East Palace governor. He is a bachelor, so his status is much higher than his actual job.
In a sense, Xu Xinan spoke on behalf of the prince, so he was completely unwarranted.
"Everyone, today's discussion is to reach an agreement and to handle the emperor's mission well!"
"We must consider the overall situation of the imperial court in order to eat the emperor's salary and be loyal to the emperor. Don't think about pushing things out..."
Xu Xinan is also a good person. Of course, he can't take the lead in opposition openly. At this time, he has become a peacemaker.
"Master Xu, what you said is absolutely right. We in Jiangsu can bite the bullet again, squeeze out 100,000 shi of grain, and strive to transport 50,000 shi within half a month!"
" Mr. Xu is absolutely right in what he said. It is a matter of eating the emperor and being loyal to the emperor. We in the south of the Yangtze River can also provide 50,000 more stones and transport them to the coastal defense line within ten days!”
Next, officials from Guangdong and Fujian also expressed their stance, The situation suddenly took a turn for the better, and it seemed that it was all Xu Xinan's fault.
Xu Xinan’s contribution is equal to that of the prince. It can be seen that these people have gone to great lengths to praise the prince.
However, the reality is that even if these people are willing to make concessions, they are still far from Jia Yucun’s preset plan. Simply put, there is still a shortage of food.
"That's right. As long as we work together, we will be able to overcome all difficulties!"
With a calm expression and a slight smile, Xu Xinan stood up and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince once said, If the ministers worry more, the king and father will worry less!"
He was not the highest official at the scene, but he surpassed the three governors, and he looked like a person in charge.
Jia Yucun was about to speak, but he was hinted by Zheng Xianlin's eyes, so he finally swallowed his words.
I saw Zheng Xianlin saying: "Okay... I think we will handle this matter first. The top priority is to transport the food. If there is any difference, we can find a solution later!"
"Master Jia, what do you think?"
Jia Yucun understood what his old boss meant, so he nodded in approval.
"Okay... let's sign the deposit first!" Zheng Xianlin said with a smile.
Zheng XianlinHe looked at the problem very thoroughly and knew that any further discussion would only delay time. The top priority was to transport the food up.
As for the bad ones, you can just talk about it slowly. If it doesn't work, you can still ask the capital for an order.
So everyone followed what they just said and signed and pledged one after another to form a conclusion, and then only needed to implement it.
"Everyone, since this matter has been agreed upon, there is no need to mention any difficulties. What can be violated is military law!"
Since it is a violation of military law, it is possible to be prosecuted by military law. , even if they are high-ranking officials of the third rank, Zhu Jinghong may not be able to save their heads when he is furious.
So Zheng Xianlin’s sentence is indeed very lethal.
The meeting then dispersed, and after everyone left, Jia Yucun and Zheng He continued to discuss. They wanted to find ways to get things done.
The final result of the discussion was that they would divide and win over each other, allowing officials from other provinces to choose to obey their orders. The method was nothing more than coercion and inducement.
The three of them finished their discussion and dispersed, while Jia Yucun went to the back hall to rest.
He felt very depressed today, but things finally made progress, which made him feel a little better.
Unexpectedly, he had just sat down and hadn't rested for a while when the secretary's office came from outside to report. The chief envoys and inspectors had all gathered at Xu Xin'an's place next door.
These people should have left the association territory, but now they have gathered at Xu Xin'an's place. Their purpose is very obvious.
The three of them were having a small meeting, and a group of people here were also having a meeting, which was really funny.
Now that Zheng and He have left, Jia Yucun is thinking alone about how to disrupt these people's discussions.
After much deliberation, he still felt that going there himself would be more effective than any other method.
"Prepare the sedan chair, I'm going to go to the police station!" Jia Yucun said in a deep voice.
Jia Yucun rushed over quickly, but as soon as he arrived at the gate of Yanchasi, the people inside learned about the situation, and then everyone avoided it.
When Jia Yucun entered the meeting hall, he only saw Xu Xinan.
"Master Zhongcheng, do you have any advice?"
Jia Yucun walked into the hall, looked around and said at the same time: "I don't take the advice seriously. I just heard that you are working here. We are discussing something, so come and take a look!"
Turn around, Jia Yucun looked at Xu Xinan and asked with a smile: "I wonder what you are discussing?"
"Chat? It's just trivial matters!" Xu Xinan replied nonchalantly and just stopped talking.
Jia Yucun then asked: "We just discussed the matter and said that we would immediately return to the territory to raise food and wages. Everyone present has signed and pledged their names. Do you still have time to talk about trivial matters?"
Xu Xinan Choking for a moment, he realized that he should not admit that he was discussing the matter, so that Jia Yucun would not be able to attack.
After a few breaths, Xu Xinan replied: "What we discussed is exactly the details of raising food and grass!"
"So raising food and grass is a trivial matter? Are the things that the Holy Spirit decrees one after another trivial? " Jia Yucun's tone became more and more severe.
Normally, with his character, he adheres to the concept of "leaving a thin line in everything" and would never ask such an almost tearful question.
The reason is that, He, Jia Yucun, has now been promoted to governor. Although he has a high position and heavy responsibilities, no one can save him if he can't handle the errands.
In addition, he has offended many people in the past when he ran errands for the emperor. Once he was demoted or even dismissed. , that would be the fate of being attacked by a group.
To put it simply, although Jia Yucun is now powerful, he is actually forced to a dead end, so he has the idea of "being barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes". /p>
At this moment, the other officials are in the back hall. Xu Xinan will certainly not lose his momentum, otherwise it will affect the confidence of others.
"Jia Zhongcheng, of course I will remember the Holy Father's decree. But you went too far..."
"Today, all the officials gathered together to get the job done. On the contrary, through their status as governor, they often acted arrogantly and for the sake of the overall situation. We just tolerated it..."
"But major court issues cannot be solved by getting angry and slamming the table. Please note..."
Xu Xinan did not read so many books in vain. The defense at this moment was a long one, and it sounded reasonable.
Even the people in the back hall couldn't help but applaud.
As for Jia Yucun. , he looked at Xu Xinan coldly, already thinking about how to "death" this man.
The "death" here refers not only to physical destruction, but also to the end of his political life. .
“They are all loyal to the country and for the Ming Dynasty, so why do you have to point fingers at us? "
Seeing Xu Xinan putting himself on the moral high ground, Jia Yucun was so angry that he couldn't hold it in anymore, so he heard him scold him: "You dare to talk to me about serving the country? "
"The war in the southeast is about to start. We are trying every means to raise food and grass, but you are trying to shirk and block it. When have you ever wanted to go abroad? When have you considered my Ming Dynasty? ”
Jia Yucun said this with true feelings, because what he said is indeed the truth.
Xu Xinan also knew that what he was doing was holding back, The purpose is to harm Zhu Jinghong, and to protect the prince.
"Jia Zhongcheng, don't be slanderous! "Xu Xinan looked solemn.
"The discussion has just been held. If I hadn't come to mediate, I don't know when we would have reached an agreement on the food and fodder matter. Is it okay for you to challenge me? ”
“Jia Zhongcheng should think more about why many officials from various prefectures and counties in Jinling under your rule have recently raised doubts about the recruitment matter? "
"It can be seen that it is not other officials who are wrong, or maybe Jia Zhongcheng is wrong! ”
This is what debates are like. As long as you think fast, you can talk about anything, but those who do practical things are simply difficult to resist.
Staring coldly at Xu Xinan, Jia Yucun felt even more murderous. , then his eyes moved to the direction of the back hall, he knewAfter telling those people, they hid behind.
Then, Jia Yucun turned around and walked out, and said with a sneer: "For your own selfish gain, you use others as weapons. Even if you don't consider the overall situation of the court, don't you also consider the wealth and lives of your colleagues?"
Jia Yucun’s words were meant to drive a wedge, but how could Xu Xinan let him succeed.
"Do we have to act according to Zhongcheng's wishes in order to consider the overall situation of the court? Zhongcheng needs to know... We are officials of the Ming Dynasty, not Zhongcheng's domestic slaves!"
These words were even better, forcing Jia Yucun to stop, turn around, point at Xu Xinan and scold: "Stir it up, stir it up... just stir it up!"
"It disturbed the supply of food and grass, caused the front line of defense to become unstable, and caused the naval battle to be defeated... I just want to finish my life with you!"
At this moment, Jia Yucun Bi Xiaoge The old man is still the old man in the small cabinet, and most officials will feel ashamed when they see his demeanor of caring about the country and the people.
Xu Xinan is an official of the Qing Dynasty. Of course he knows that what he did is wrong, but he has to do this for the sake of the prince and the "overall situation".
So at this moment, even though he felt ashamed in his heart, he still stood there indifferently, with a calm expression on his face.
Jia Yucun walked away. After waiting for less than a minute, several officials gathered here appeared.
At this time, all of these people looked worried, and they were obviously a little scared.
Everyone is willing to follow Xu Xinan, or to be precise, follow the prince, because it is profitable.
But right now, it sounds like the risks are extremely high, so it’s normal for some of them to waver.
It doesn’t matter if Jia Yucun wants to die, it’s a pity that people like them are so cruel.
Xu Xinan also saw everyone's worries, so he spoke to boost morale: "Everyone...as long as you act in accordance with the laws of the country, you can rest easy!"
…………
Soon after another seven or eight days passed, the struggle between Jia Yucun and the local officials continued, and the storm on the sea had begun.
The Spanish fleet unexpectedly attacked the coast of Guangxi, killing and injuring nearly 700 fishermen, and burning 16 villages.
From July 25th to mid-August, the coastal provinces were full of maritime police. The Spaniards attacked one after another, leaving no merchant ships in the southeastern sea of the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, the closer the defense becomes, the fewer casualties there will be, but there are still twenty to thirty thousand soldiers and civilians before and after, among which the civilian casualties are mainly high.
In a courtyard in Quanzhou Fucheng, Zhu Jinghong was reading the memorial.
There are problems everywhere, and Ming Dynasty has not taken advantage at all, which has made Zhu Jinghong a little anxious recently.
He may have already heard the news. There is an undercurrent in the court, and they want to remove him as the general who commanded the army on the grounds that his command failed and delayed the state affairs.
Of course, the emperor suppressed these rumors, but they still made Zhu Jinghong feel anxious.
The reason isTherefore, his victorious character forces him to do something, otherwise it will lower the confidence of his supporters in him.
"Your Majesty, let's have a cup of tea!"
At some point, Yang Jingting appeared in the room, holding a teacup in her hand.
Looking back, Zhu Jinghong said with a smile: "You should rest, just let them do these things!"
In late July, Yang Jingting's menstruation stopped. , it can be seen that Zhu Jinghong has succeeded in sowing the seeds, so he made extra emphasis on letting her rest.
After the funeral ceremony of the Lin family, Yang Jingting took a boat along the coast and rushed to Quanzhou in order to share the good news with Zhu Jinghong.
She is indeed big-hearted. The sea route from Yingtian to Quanzhou is nearly two thousand miles, and she arrived in less than a month.
Zhu Jinghong even scolded her specifically for this, but he also felt Yang Jingting's deep love, and the relationship between the two deepened a lot.
Handing over the tea cup, Yang Jingting said: "The prince has been very angry recently, who dares to come here at this time!"
This sentence has two meanings, one is to emphasize She cares about Zhu Jinghong, and secondly, she shows her sympathy
"Alas... the country's affairs are difficult!" Zhu Jinghong sighed.
No matter how many auras he has on his body, it cannot change that he is a mortal body, he is just stronger than ordinary people.
So, when encountering real difficulties, Zhu Jinghong will also feel helpless.
But he is not someone who gives up easily, so no matter how difficult the situation is, he will try his best to do his best.
"The prince should also take a break. There are so many civil and military officials in the southeast, so we should let them share more of their burdens!"
"It's difficult for them too!" Zhu Jinghong replied.
Not to mention the generals on the front line of defense, people like Jia Yucun, Zheng Xianlin, He Gujin, etc. are also busy in the rear without even touching the ground.
No matter what the character of these people is, they are actually doing things now, so Zhu Jinghong gave them affirmation.
"Your Majesty, drink tea!" Yang Jingting reminded softly.
So Zhu Jinghong took the tea cup, drank a few sips and looked up and asked, "Did you put some sugar in it?"
"The tea was already bitter enough, so I asked someone to put some sugar in it." Brown sugar!" Yang Jingting replied.
Zhu Jinghong smiled, took Yang Jingting's hand and said: "Pay more attention to yourself, the most important thing is that you take care of yourself now!"
"I also want to Help the prince share some of the burden!" Yang Jingting said in a coquettish tone.
Zhu Jinghong really smiled this time, and their relationship became stronger.
After chatting for a while, Yang Jingting exited the study and returned to her room full of joy.
Since learning that she was pregnant, she has been in a good mood every day and full of hope for the future.
"I'm waiting for you to play chess!"
"Yesterday Huizhen defeated me, today you have to teach me how to kill her majesty!"
p>
The one who came up was Zhang Xiaoyue, who directly stepped forward and held Yang Jingting's sleeve. The relationship between the two was extremely close.
I saw Li Huizhen step forward and salute, and then said: "What kind of majesty does a slave have in front of the Queen!"
"Sister Xiaoyue needs the Queen's guidance. How can you dare to use this little trick to make a fool of yourself? "Recent transcoding has been serious, which makes us more motivated and updates faster. Please use your little hands to exit the reading mode. Thank you
