Zhu Ying simply summoned Ren Hengtai, the Minister of Rites, and asked him about Huang Guan.
According to Ren Hengtai, the Minister of Rites, Huang Guan did not play a very prominent role in the Ministry of Rites, and he could basically handle the things assigned to him, but the Ministry of Rites did not have many things to do.
Basically it's all about etiquette or diplomacy.
It is worth mentioning that Huang Guan understands a wide variety of languages.
Basically, if there were envoys stationed in the Ming Dynasty, Huang Guan could communicate with them without any obstacles.
Huang Guanzai was basically responsible for many matters related to dealing with foreign ministers.
Based on this, Huang Guan has relatively good relations with most of his foreign ministers.
In other words, Huang Guan knows dozens of foreign languages.
Hexagonal talent.
He also knows how to keep a low profile and bide his time.
Zhu Ying chatted with Ye Yueqing about Huang Guan.
"My James Mansion now exists in name only. Except for a third-grade James Man named Di Yusen who is somewhat useful in breaking eucalyptus, the others have basically always been vacant."
"It is indeed a waste to put a talent like Huang Guan in the Ministry of Rites. I intend to transfer him to James's Mansion. What do you think?"
Ye Yueqing replied: "Huang Guan himself is the third rank of the right minister of the Ministry of Rites. If he is transferred to Zhan Shi's house, it is naturally impossible to lower his rank. Di Yusen is good at breaking eucalyptus. Last year's incident in Shanxi led to the death of the right minister of the Ministry of Punishments. There is still a vacancy.
, or Di Yusen can be transferred there."
Zhu Ying nodded: "Let's arrange it this way."
Then he summoned the eunuch Guo Zhong of Bingbi and asked him to go to the Ministry of Personnel to deliver the order.
According to the current promotion and demotion of officials in the Ministry of Civil Affairs of the Ming Dynasty, officials of the fifth rank and above need to be confirmed by Zhu Yuanzhang or Zhu Ying before they can take up the position.
Previously, after the death of the Minister of Punishment due to a scandal in Shanxi, Zhu Ying should have immediately selected a candidate for the Minister of Punishment. However, Zhu Ying considered that although Di Yusen was a member of the James family, he had always used his talents in running affairs.
Therefore, we simply let Di Yusen take charge of the part that the right minister of the Ministry of Punishment was originally responsible for.
Now it can be considered that his intention is fulfilled.
After Taisun's order was conveyed to the Ministry of Personnel, Zhan Hui, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, naturally did not dare to neglect, and quickly wrote a general notice and sent it to Di Yusen of Zhan Shifu.
James's house.
Di Yusen received a briefing from the Ministry of Officials, with a somewhat embarrassed expression on his face.
Seeing this, Qin Lixue asked with some confusion: "Didn't my husband always want to have an affair in the Ministry of Justice? Now that I have been appointed as the right minister of the Ministry of Justice, I am also a third-rank official. Why do I see my husband looking unhappy?"
Di Yusen shook his head and explained: "This shows that His Highness Taisun has little regard for my abilities. Zhan Shi's Mansion is a department that assists His Highness Taisun Zuo. The extent of its power is not defined. Normally, His Highness Taisun
The greater the power, the more places the James Mansion can govern."
"In our Ming Dynasty, there is now no gap between His Majesty and the Grandson. Different from the tit-for-tat situation in previous dynasties, Your Majesty has already delegated great power to the Grandson. Coupled with the deterrence of the Grandson now, it is no different from His Majesty."
"A rising tide lifts all boats. Even the six ministers cannot compare to the power of the James Mansion."
Di Yusen has been working in James Mansion for several years. He is completely different from when he first came here. Under the influence of such great power, Di Yusen has become much more majestic now.
In addition to Zhan Shi of the third rank, there is also a junior Zhan Shi of the fourth rank and a prime minister of the sixth rank.
There are left and right Chunfang, the Economic Bureau, and the Chief Book Hall.
However, in fact, Di Yusen was just a polished commander. He didn't know what Taisun was thinking. Except for himself, Zhan Shi, everything else was vacant.
The subordinate agencies are only fully staffed in the main bookkeeping office. In Zuochunfang and the economic and economic bureau, there are only a few officials who guard the yamen and do cleaning work.
Di Yusen knew that he was in a high position and acted cautiously.
Therefore, apart from intervening in cases involving the Ministry of Justice, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Dali Temple, he did not interfere too much with other departments.
Now that he has been transferred, he is actually rising and falling.
"I don't think there's anything wrong with this. Although in my husband's eyes, I have lost the favor of His Majesty the Grandson, this is in line with my husband's love and can also reflect my husband's abilities."
"We are also third-grade men, and the salary we receive will not be reduced. As long as the husband works hard, I think this is good."
Qin Lixue didn't care too much and said.
From remote places like Pinglu in Xia County, Jiezhou, to the bustling capital, Qin Lixue was already very satisfied.
Although my husband's job has changed, the right minister of the Ministry of Punishment is also a first-class official. He is also a high-ranking official in the entire capital. It may be inferior to Zhan Shi in Zhan Shi's house, but it has little impact on life.
Qin Lixue thinks this is good. Her husband's talents are only in office affairs, so it is not a waste.
Hearing his wife's words, Di Yusen was stunned for a moment.
Then he came to his senses and said with a wry smile: "I'm the one who got caught. Madam, you are right."
I have to admit that the power Di Yusen felt in the past few years was so tempting that his heart was a little shaken. When he lost this power, he felt very regretful and regretful.
Now that I think about it, my virtue is not suitable for the job. Apart from starting a business, I have no ability to assist the left.
People who heard the announcement from the Ministry of Officials said that His Highness Taisun has appointed a new Zhanshi of Zhanshi Mansion.
According to the process, he still needs to wait for the new James to come over and hand over.
I felt somewhat unconvinced in my heart.
Obviously, the reason why he was transferred to the right minister of the Ministry of Justice was because of this person's relationship.
He wanted to see who had such talent that His Highness the Grand Sun valued him so much.
Compared to Di Yusen, Huang Guan's matter was much simpler.
Before the articles of association were written, the transfer documents from the Ministry of Personnel arrived.
Huang Guan was not surprised when he heard that he was going to James's house to become James, but his eyes were still a little more happy.
Even though I had expected it earlier, now that I have seen the transfer documents, I finally feel at ease.
He was also a little moved in his heart. He estimated that the transfer would be finalized in a few days, perhaps after his own charter was handed in.
Unexpectedly, not long after I arrived at the Ministry of Rites, the transfer document came right after me.
This shows that Taisun values himself very much.
It can be imagined that as soon as he left Kunning Palace, Taisun sent an order to the Ministry of Personnel to make arrangements.
Although the right minister of the Ministry of Rites and Mr. Zhan in the James Mansion have the same rank, they are completely different in terms of power.
This means that in the future, I will have a place where I can apply what I have learned.
Huang Guan's eyes became firm.
Di Yusen quickly found out about the candidate for the new James Mansion.
Although he has been transferred to the right minister of the Ministry of Justice, he still has many connections in the capital for many years. This flat transfer is not meant to be derogatory. Everyone knows that Di Yusen's talents are reflected in running affairs, so it can be considered a loss.
Its use.
The right minister of the Ministry of Justice, who is the third grade, is a first-class official in the court. Moreover, the new appointment of Zhan Shi in the Zhanshi Mansion is not a secret, and will be announced to the six ministries soon.
"It turned out to be Huang Guan, the number one scholar in the Six Poems."
There are three elements in the world, but there are no six poems in the world.
When he heard this name, even before meeting him in person, Di Yusen was already convinced.
Huang Guan's name was not well known to Zhu Ying, but in the circle of scholars, it was known to everyone.
Even when Di Yusen was in Pinglu, Xia County, Jiezhou, he could still hear about Huang Guan's fame for winning six yuan in a row.
After wasting half his life, he could barely pass the child examination and get the title of scholar.
However, Huang Guan, who succeeded in winning six yuan in a row, was only twenty-seven years old at that time.
This can be said to be the difference between top academics and poor academics.
Di Yusen is a frequent visitor to the imperial examinations, so he naturally knows how difficult it is, and he also knows how exaggerated it is to win six yuan in a row.
In the 24th year of Hongwu, to be honest, when Di Yusen heard the news that Huang Guan won six yuan in a row, he felt that he had heard wrong and couldn't believe it.
When I got the news that I had failed the ranking, I naturally knew that the difference was like a bright moon and a firefly.
After the handover, he took up his new official position within two days.
Compared with the changes in power, the situations of the two are somewhat different.
Di Yusen is a frequent visitor to the Ministry of Punishment, and everyone is very familiar with him. Although he was involved in the affairs of the Ministry of Punishment in the past, Di Yusen did not use his power to suppress others. Therefore, after joining the Ministry of Punishment, the officials here naturally organized events for him.
A welcome banquet.
The Criminal Department is a well-established office. Different from the deserted James Mansion, there are many people and the banquet is very lively.
On the other hand, look at Huang Guan's side.
Although James has great power in James's Mansion, he is a mere commander, with two or three big and small cats on top and bottom.
Or the Chief Registrar of its subordinate department came forward and wanted to treat Shangfeng to a banquet.
Even this still requires Huang Guan's approval.
Huang Guan really didn't expect the situation in James's Mansion, so he immediately refused, and then went to the grandson to ask for supplementary vacancies in James's Mansion.
Zhu Ying is too lazy to go to the staff department to find someone. You are already a thirty-five-year-old mature Huang Guan. You should learn to do things by yourself.
We simply delegated the power of selecting people directly to Huang Guan.
Then he told Huang Guan that after the detailed charter of the expeditionary force was written, he would go directly to the Minister of War and the Minister of Household Affairs to discuss the transfer and money and food matters. After they were handled, they would be handed over to him for review.
"Compared to Huang Guan, Di Yusen is indeed a lot worse."
Zhu Ying also sighed a little.
In fact, the James Mansion did not play a big role in assisting him, but Di Yusen had worked in the James Mansion for many years, but he did not even have a complete member organization.
It can be said that it is cautious, but it can also be seen that the pattern is not enough.
Huang Guan is different. The first step when he took office was to improve the James Mansion, which shows that he really has ideas and motivation.
Zhu Yuanzhang naturally received the news about the transfer of third-rank officials.
Now Zhu Yuanzhang, apart from taking care of government affairs, basically takes care of his children.
Little Wen Cheng is over three years old.
Besides father and mother, the third person named is great-grandfather.
That cry of "grandpa" made Zhu Yuanzhang's heart melt.
Xiao Wen Cheng looks more and more cute, with big watery eyes, very much like Ye Yueqing.
Fei Dudu's little mouth kissed Zhu Yuanzhang's cheek. This feeling made Zhu Yuanzhang extremely addicted.
The only thing that worries Zhu Yuanzhang is that Xiao Wencheng is a bit picky about food.
This also means that Xiao Wen Cheng, who is more than three years old, is now only over 20 pounds.
But it's okay, Zhu Yuanzhang is much more relaxed when riding on his shoulders like this.
In the palace, the guards and ministers could all see the three-year-old great-grandson of the emperor riding unscrupulously on His Majesty's shoulders.
His Majesty held the emperor's great-grandson's little feet to prevent him from falling upside down.
Behind them, Liu, Jiang Wei and other people were nervous.
Zhu Yuanzhang, who will turn seventy-two this year, is still very strong and often wanders around the palace with little Wen Cheng on his shoulders.
Zhu Ying also has many sons.
But Xiao Wencheng is the only one who can get Zhu Yuanzhang's favor.
At the end of the first month, the palace was relatively calm, but there was already a huge wave in the entire Ming Dynasty and even overseas.
The news that the great grandson of the Ming Dynasty offered a reward for the Weeping Tree has spread to Annan and two places in the city.
This is the first one I came into contact with.
All the nobles naturally went crazy.
In the Ming Dynasty, there were hereditary marquises of ten thousand households.
The temptation is simply too great.
For these nobles in the Nanyang region, the real nobles were the Marquis of Wanhu in the Ming Dynasty.
What are you still hesitating about? Look for it.
Originally located in the coastal zone, the shipbuilding industry was developed. Although it was not as good as that of the Ming Dynasty, it was still at the second level.
Moreover, because the maritime ban of the Ming Dynasty was lifted, more and more people were looking for wealth on the sea, so the demand for sea-going ships was even greater.
It has reached its peak now.
Businessmen in the Ming Dynasty suddenly discovered that opening a shipyard in the Nanyang region would definitely be a profitable business, and they would definitely not have to worry about orders and sales.
When it comes to shipbuilding technology, Ming Dynasty ranks first, but who dares to rank second?
Not all the best craftsmen and technologies were in the hands of the Ming Dynasty. Many aristocratic families, especially those who initially engaged in smuggling and sea trade, had craftsmen and technologies that were no worse than those of the imperial court.
Since Zhu Ying guided the maritime trade economy, the shipbuilding industry has flourished, and more people have joined it. Except for the weapons school, the craftsman school does not restrict graduates from being forced to enter the shipyards established by the government.
Zhu Ying is not worried at all about these aristocratic families who rely on sea trade, because their roots are in the Ming Dynasty.
If we leave the Ming Dynasty and don’t have the background of the Ming Dynasty, how big of a threat will it pose?
Moreover, in general, there is not a big gap in the current level of shipbuilding. In the final analysis, it still lies in quality.
As long as a steam ironclad ship is built, it will completely lay the foundation for Ming Dynasty to lead the world.
Only with steam engines can the current inherited shipbuilding technology be broken and technical barriers realized.
The manufacturing of wooden boats has actually reached a bottleneck after thousands of years.
soon.
In the Champa area, Ming merchants bribed Champa nobles and officials, occupied a large territory, and opened new shipyards.
In order to gain the support of the Ming Dynasty, these first batch of businessmen were very smart and directly sent 20% of the shares to Zhu Yunwen, the king of Wu in the Ming Dynasty.
I have to say that under the leadership of Song Zhong, Zhu Yunwen now understands a lot.
At present, a large number of Chinese schools are opened in all cities in Champa, and the nobles in Champa are obviously unable to resist the pressure from the Ming Dynasty.
