Chapter 305 The difference between part-time and full-time jobs
Xu Jing now had to find a big tree to enjoy the shade.
In the past, he thought Tang Yin was a big tree, but now it seems... Tang Yin is just a springboard at most.
He really wanted to stay with Zhang Zhou and work, but Zhang Zhou ignored him and didn't take his pride in his wealth seriously. No matter how much money he had, he still couldn't compare with Zhang Zhou.
So now he wants to use Tang Yin as a springboard to lean on the big tree of Wang Shouren first.
Governor of Datong, Uncle Xinjian...
No matter how you look at him, he looks cool, and he has nothing to be embarrassed about in front of Tang Yin.
"Wang Zhongcheng is a cautious person. I have never heard that he wants to recruit guests. Furthermore, as a judge, why would you want to be under someone else's care?" Tang Yin did not want to be the intermediary.
Xu Jing sighed: "As a civil servant, if you can continue to take part in the examination, you don't need to worry about your future. However, in this situation... Unless you don't want to be an official in the future, otherwise you can only take the wrong path and find something."
It’s a channel that others don’t think is popular. Bohu, you have to understand me.”
Xu Jing's eyes were eager, eagerly looking forward to Tang Yin being his guide.
Tang Yin picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine first. Xu Jing next to him quickly filled it up for him.
Seeing that Tang Yin was willing to drink his wine, Xu Jing felt that the matter was almost done.
"I will talk to Wang Zhongcheng. As for whether he is willing to keep you, I am not sure."
Tang Yin actually wants to say, since you were involved in the scandal case, you are already a prominent figure, and Wang Bo'an is also a prominent figure now, and they all want to keep a low profile as an official, so why do you use a person in the limelight to cause trouble for yourself?
…
…
Just as Zhang Zhou and Wang Shouren expected.
After Huo Si led his troops to the south, he immediately made another memorial, expressing his willingness to accept the grant of the Ming Dynasty and preparing to move his troops to the Hetao land, that is, Dongtao.
He was no longer harsh on the more than 10,000 tribesmen who were captured, and even his adopted son who was captured was not taken back. He probably knew that these people were the hostages of the Ming Dynasty, and now he was very desperate to survive.
That day Tang Yin got up very late in the morning. When he went to see Wang Shouren, Wang Shouren had already sent out all the official letters sent to various places.
When Wang Shouren saw Tang Yin coming, he was quite polite.
They are not from the same school, but they seem to be on the same page now in terms of doing things.
"...I just learned the news that on the north shore of Weining Sea, the Yongxie Bu tribe also made a surprise attack, but Huo Si was prepared for it. The Yong Xie Bu tribe lost their troops in this battle, but in the follow-up, people from other tribes approached the Weining Sea.
Even after the victory in Fire Sieve, he still led his troops south and prepared to submit to the Ming Dynasty."
The news about Wang Shouren also made Tang Yin very emotional.
Tang Yin said: "Sure enough, they were all tricked by Zhang Zhitai."
Wang Shouren said: "The wall fell and everyone pushed it down. The time for the Mongolian right wing to rule the roost has come. Now the tribes will not give him good pasture. Although the Hetao area has not been operated all year round, it still has the intersection of three rivers. No matter
Whether it is aquatic plants or cultivated land, it gives him room to survive."
"Um."
Tang Yin nodded and asked urgently, "When will he enter the customs?"
"In the past few days, I am going to let him advance to Datong Town, get rid of his minions, and only let him bring a few followers to the capital. Bohu, do you want to go with him?"
Wang Shouren asked.
This confused Tang Yin. Didn't I come here to greet Huo Si into the customs? Why did Huo Si even need me to accompany him all the way into the capital? Then what became of me?
Wang Shouren asked in confusion: "Isn't this how Zhang Zhitai arranged it?"
Tang Yin sighed: "Then I... will ask him later."
When Wang Shouren heard this, he knew that Tang Yin was very lazy, or that Tang Yin felt that this job was a bit dangerous... Once Huo Si changed his mind on the way to Beijing, he killed the Ming envoy and then escaped... This possibility is not impossible.
Accompanying a former prairie evil god doesn't seem like a good thing.
"Bohu, the Ming Dynasty still has to send someone. Since the imperial court did not send an envoy to welcome you, and Zhang Zhitai specially asked you to come, then you must accompany him." Wang Shouren did not discuss with Tang Yin and replaced him.
Tang Yin made a decision, "In addition to the entourage of the Jinyi Guards, there will also be soldiers carrying flint muskets when entering the capital. Just don't worry."
Tang Yin sighed and said, "It seems that this is the only way."
…
…
Wang Shouren originally thought that when the fire sieve entered the pass to see the court, Zhang Zhou, as the winner, would personally experience the glory.
But then Wang Shouren discovered that Zhang Zhou didn't seem to be interested in the fire screening at all.
It seems that Zhang Zhou was only interested in how to raise military pay and supplies. Apart from sending Tang Yin over, Zhang Zhou did not even send an official letter or a private letter to make any arrangements for this fire tribute tribute.
Probably just let Wang Shouren figure it out.
The fire sift enters the pass on June 19th.
At this time, nearly half a month had passed since the Ming Dynasty's surprise attack on Weininghai. When Huoshan entered the pass, the chief military officer Wang Xi led his people there, and at the same time, he had to coordinate Huoshan's troops outside the pass.
Wang Shouren had ordered that Huoshi Mengoljin's soldiers and horses were not allowed to approach the border for fifty miles. He also promised that if the grassland tribes did not approach the south of Mao'erzhuang, the Ming Dynasty would send troops to coordinate... Only in this way did Huoshi allow
Don't worry about entering the customs. Of course, if there is any change in the Mengoljin troops, the Ming Dynasty will also think that Huo Si has evil intentions.
When the time comes, Huo Si becomes a hostage, and it would not be an exaggeration to kill him.
The fire sieve arrived in Datong at noon on June 20th.
This day was the Chinese Valentine's Day, and the people of Datong Town seemed to have come out to meet their "little lovers." Almost everyone in the city came out to watch the once arrogant prairie hungry wolf surrender.
However, Wang Shouren did not want to arouse the rebellion of the Mengol Jin tribe, so he specially stipulated that no one was allowed to watch the streets where the fire was sieving into the city, but this still could not resist the enthusiasm of the people in the city...
The soldiers would head toward the city, while the common people would move closer to the nearby streets. Some even left the city early and waited far outside the city.
For the people of the Ming Dynasty, this day is more like a festival than a festival. The Qixi Festival is like celebrating the Lantern Festival.
…
…
The fire sieve brought thirty followers, a hundred horses, cattle, sheep and other tributes...it looked very shabby.
There is nothing we can do about it.
Almost all the property and population of Huoshii's headquarters were taken away by Wang Shouren. When Wang Shouren personally appeared at the city gate with the Ming Dynasty's cavalry to greet them, Huoshi got off his horse with a look of hostility in his eyes.
The once heroic leader of the grassland was defeated by a little-known new scholar, but it was not a frontal battle. Of course, Huo Si would feel that Wang Shouren could not win with force.
But if you add in the results of the previous battle at Piantou Pass, Fire Sieve actually has no temper.
The majesty in front of him is more that he, the former eagle of the grassland, wants to maintain his last dignity.
"My official is Wang Shouren, the doctor of the Ministry of Punishment who has been appointed by His Majesty the Ming Dynasty to be the governor of Datong Department of Military Affairs."
Wang Shouren also dismounted and stepped forward surrounded by his retinue.
Although someone had identified it in advance and confirmed that it was Huo Si, the Ming side was also afraid that Huo Si was trying to kill the enemy and use themselves as bait to assassinate the future star of the Ming military.
But Wang Shouren didn't seem to care too much about this.
Just as the interpreter was about to come forward, Huo Si raised his hand and said, "It goes without saying, I understand. Aren't you already the new uncle of the Ming Dynasty?"
The Mongolian right wing mostly dealt with the Ming Dynasty, and it did not surprise Wang Shouren that tribal leaders like Huo Si were proficient in Chinese.
But in the eyes of the generals of the Ming Dynasty, people who understand the language of the Ming Dynasty should have received some etiquette education, but based on his behavior before the fire sieve, and his rough and arrogant appearance, he does not look like someone who has been influenced by the Confucian culture of the Ming Dynasty at all.
, naturally you would think it is a bit strange that he can listen and speak the Ming language.
"The matter of knighthood has not yet been finalized. Fire sieve, enter the city!"
Wang Shouren's intention was to enter the city side by side with Huo Si.
Although Wang Shouren was the governor of the Ming Dynasty, Huoshai was also a surrendered tribal leader. In order to show his kindness and power to the grassland tribes, the emperor had no intention of killing Huoshai.
At the same time, you must also show respect for the fire sieve.
Letting Wang Shouren, who had made a surprise attack on Weininghai, accompany Huo Si, it actually had some intimidating meaning.
…
…
He mounted his horse and entered the city with Wang Shouren.
The cheers and shouts of soldiers can be heard everywhere on the city wall, which is a kind of emotional catharsis.
The soldiers and people of the Ming Dynasty were still very angry with Huo Si. After all, Huo Si violated the border several times, killed, wounded, and robbed people, and also robbed property at the border. Even though Huo Si now surrendered to the Ming Dynasty and the court decided not to pursue the case, the soldiers and people of the Ming Dynasty still refused.
I will forgive this hungry wolf from the bottom of my heart.
Originally, the people were not allowed to go to the streets to watch, but because the people in the city were so excited, the soldiers also deliberately released water.
In the end, many people ran to both sides of the street.
If it hadn't been for Wang Shouren's presence, they would have thrown rotten vegetable leaves and dung up, and now they would just be standing on the roadside cursing at the fire sieve.
Huo Si can understand and has no objections. He seems to know very well what his position is today, and he also understands that the people of Ming Dynasty cannot have any goodwill towards him. Anyway, your governor is next to me, and he has no right to kill him.
Me, what's the use of just scolding me?
…
…
The entry into Datong was just a "celebration" arranged by Wang Shouren.
It was more to demonstrate the military might of the Ming Dynasty.
It is also to test whether Huo Si is sincere and surrenders. If Huo Si has a guilty conscience, he will not dare to enter Datong City.
Then Tang Yin and his party led a team of about 500 people to accompany, or "escort" Huo Si all the way to the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
When the news reached the capital, the monarchs, ministers and people were all jubilant.
In the court, Zhu Youtang once again demonstrated his merits for Zhang Zhou, and in front of the ministers of civil and military affairs, he praised Zhang Zhou to a high level.
This made many ministers present feel very uncomfortable.
"...After this battle, the Ming Dynasty has established a victory in the northwest, and the day when the grassland can be established can be expected!" Zhu Youtang looked excited.
Wu Xun's face was quite good, and he was easily moved into the rhythm by his words, while everyone on the Wenchen side had a look of "just like that", even if some people really felt that the spring in Daming Border Town
Now, for the sake of my own position and career prospects, I still have to keep in step with Liu Jian and others, who are the leaders of traditional civil servants.
Zhu Youtang said: "I am going to make Bingkuan a pillar of the country, the crown prince and tutor, and the minister of the Ministry of War!"
"Your Majesty! The appointment of civil servants based on meritorious deeds should be based on seniority, and the post of Minister of Ministry should be completed after three years. The business of leveling the grassland has not been completed, and Zhang Zhou has not yet made any achievements in the northwest. If you rashly increase the reward, it will demoralize the army. Being lazy will not help matters. Your Majesty, please think twice."
Liu Jian would rush out to oppose this issue.
In the Ming Dynasty, among the civil servants' honors, Zhu Guo was the lord second only to Zuo Zhu Guo and You Zhu Guo, ranking from the first rank.
Although Zhang Zhou is also the censor of the Zuodu, he does not have a real vacancy of the second rank of civil servants. The official positions in the border towns of the Ming Dynasty are temporary. With Zhang Zhou's current position as the temporary right minister of the Ministry of War, even if he returns to the dynasty, he will at most He can only be promoted to the third rank, and it is very likely that he will not be able to be transferred to the capital as the sixth minister. He may have to be transferred to Nanjing.
This brings up a problem. No matter how great your contribution is to Zhang Zhou, you can only be awarded a military title. As for the literary honors such as Zhu Guo, you should stay aside.
At present, there are still some Zhu Kingdoms in the Ming Dynasty, but those who become six ministers and cabinet ministers will basically be awarded the literary honors of the Zhu Kingdom after passing the examination for three years. This kind of title is more symbolic, and it will not be brought with it in life or death. If you go, you won't be given a coupon, so you can't pass it on.
At most, if there is a nephew in the family, he can be granted the right to study in the Imperial College.
Zhu Youtang originally thought that giving Zhang Zhou a Duke of Lai had already gained the approval of Liu Jian and others. Now it would be easy to add a Duke of Zhu, but he did not expect that he encountered such a big backlash.
He probably also understood that sealing the Duke of Lai did not hurt the basic base of the civil servants, but if it was Jiazhu Kingdom, it would make the civil servants feel like a thorn in their backs.
Zhu Youtang thought to himself, I haven't given Bingkuan any support in Zhuguo, but Zhuguo and you are like this... It really disappoints me.
"Let's discuss this later." Zhu Youtang didn't force it. It was a symbolic literary honor. Zhu Youtang was not in a hurry to fight for Zhang Zhou. Now, just by probing like this, he let him know what this group of people were like. His attitude made him feel very rewarded.
"As for the post of Minister of the Ministry of War, I will use it to manage the army in the northwest. I think you have no objections, right?"
Just when everyone thought that the emperor was going to add the official title to Zhang Zhou and "discuss it later," the emperor specifically singled out the position of "Minister of War" for Zhang Zhou to fight for.
This actually means reminding the civil servants present.
Since you think that he has not been the Minister for three years and cannot be given the honor of Zhu Guo, then I will give him a part-time job as the Minister of the Ministry of War. Now that the clock starts, you shouldn't have any objections, right?
Liu Jian was actually very helpless.
The emperor even gave Zhang Zhou the position of censor of Zuodu. Of course, this was only a part-time job. After all, the official censor of Zuodu was Min Gui, who was in charge of the affairs of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
But the emperor insisted on letting Zhang Zhou serve as Minister of War again... Wouldn't this obviously embarrass the ministers of the DPRK?
"Since we have no objections, the matter will be settled as it is." Zhu Youtang's attitude seemed very firm again, "However, I plan to transfer Bingkuan back to Beijing before the end of the year. What kind of position will be given to him at that time, the staff will also have to consider it first. …”
Tu Yan glanced at Liu Jian.
I was thinking in my mind, do we still need to consider this kind of thing?
Didn't you give him the title of Duke of Lai?
Even if he is not the Duke of Lai, if you want to give him the title of Minister, Minister, etc., the Six Ministries of Nanjing are waiting for him.
Zhu Youtang suddenly said again: "The "Da Ming Huidian" will be completed soon. I will use Bingkuan's merits in compiling the book to promote him to be a bachelor. This has been discussed before. It will also be considered by the Ministry of Personnel in the past few days. ...The imperial edict was issued by the Hanlin Academy...I am waiting for the day when the fire will sift into the capital!"
…
…
The meeting ended.
When leaving the palace, many ministers were discussing.
Just because of the fact that Huo Si entered the capital, the emperor had to give Zhang Zhou the title of Zhuguo, Crown Prince, Tutor, Minister of the Ministry of War, and Bachelor of Attendance... This does not include the previously decided right minister of the Ministry of War, censor of the left capital, and Lai Guo.
male……
The ministers all felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
Are you joking?
"Does Zhang Bingkuan have a great contribution? He has been present in every battle this year, but in which battle did he charge into the battle?" Yuan Shouzhi, as the general envoy, has always had the biggest opinions on Zhang Zhou.
It may also be that his official position is not as good as those of the Six-Bud Shangshu, and he has not considered advancing to the Six-Bud Shangshu, so he just speaks upright.
He deliberately let the colleagues present hear these words, intending to bring this kind of discussion to the upper and lower levels of the court, and even to the people.
Min Gui, the censor of Zuodu, said: "Since this year, reports of successes in various towns have been reported frequently. His Majesty has even revised the rules for military merit rewards. With the power of one person to change the northwest pattern, it cannot be said that he has done nothing."
"you!"
Yuan Shouzhi frowned and looked at Min Gui.
Previously in the court, Min Gui had many opinions on Zhang Zhou, and often came out to oppose the emperor's appointment of Zhang Zhou.
Now when it came to private discussions, Min Gui seemed to be showing off his contribution to Zhang Zhou, which Yuan Shouzhi and some people around him couldn't understand.
Xu Qiong said: "In the current situation, keeping Zhang Bingkuan in the northwest is a good deed for both the government and the public. Why bother with that unrealistic official position? I dare to ask you, if after he returns to the court, there will be so many vacancies for him in the court? Or should he say that he
Are you able to take on all these positions at once?"
This means that a hundred false positions are not as good as one real vacancy.
What about the scholar-in-waiting, the minister of the Ministry of War, the imperial censor of Zuodu, the Duke of Lai... Which of these is now in short supply?
Aren't you going to choose one and a half among them and let him be the one?
When the time comes, those who misbehave will be fools, and when the time comes, it will be the Governor's Mansion and that old guy Zhang Mao who will cause trouble. What are we anxious about?
The ministers present seemed to feel comfortable instantly after hearing Xu Qiong's words.
Suddenly I felt that it was wonderful to let Zhang Zhou go to the northwest to gain military honors. I was originally worried that Zhang Zhou would stay in the court because of his contribution to book repair and become a bachelor, and he would soon join the cabinet...
...but now that he has the title of Duke of Lai, he is at most a nobleman that we looked down upon before.
It doesn't matter whether he is a noble or a noble man, as long as he doesn't look bad, we will be fine.
…
…
Inside the Wenhua Hall.
Zhu Houzhao was preparing to go to class, and here Gu Dayong brought him a letter from Liu Jin.
"This old boy, let him follow Mr. Zhang to achieve military merit, and he went off to a side road to eat and wait to die? Incompetent!" Zhu Houzhao was very angry with Liu Jin.
Gu Dayong wanted to say, was this something Liu Jin could choose?
Everyone thought that there would be a war in Pianguan, but the war did not happen in Pianguan. Liu Jin had no chance of winning military honors!
Zhu Houzhao said: "Bring me my military map, I want to study it carefully! Later, I will level the grassland myself. How can I do such unparalleled achievements to others?"
