Therefore, Liu Weichao said to Emperor Chongzhen: "Didn't you already send Li Dingguo, Liu Wenxiu and Zhou Yuji to the south? In other words, it is estimated that the rebellion in Jiangnan will be resolved within this year and next, right?
"
"That's the best!" Emperor Chongzhen nodded after hearing this, "Jiangnan is a tax-rich area after all. If it is plagued by thieves for many years, it will cost too much to recover. I can't afford it. I don't know yet.
When will the Jianlu in Liaodong recover and start causing trouble?"
The Battle of Jizhou really hurt the Jianlu people, and they have been able to calm down without causing trouble so far.
However, it is absolutely impossible for Jianlu to sink like this, they are just continuing to accumulate strength. If the thieves in Jiangnan restrain the main force of the imperial army for too long, it may plunge the imperial court into a war between the two places.
Today, Gyeonggi is being rebuilt, especially the train stations, which are all outside the city.
If Jianlu came in again, this time without Liu Weichao's ability to predict history, the battle with Jianlu would not be so easy. If Jianlu were to flee and fight, destroying the reconstruction of the capital, there would be big trouble.
Yes.
The reason why Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu were sent to the south was actually to ask them to deal with Zhang Xianzhong's troops and dismantle Zhang Xianzhong's troops as soon as possible.
When Li Dingguo and Liu Wenxiu were willing to go, they also supported Li Yan's theory and felt that this was not to stab their former brothers, but to save them. This is justice!
Along the Great Wall, the governor of Jiliao, Xie Xuelong, and the generals, Bai Guangen and Bai Tengjiao, are strengthening defense. Their troops have also been reorganized, and the armor and ordnance produced by the Military War Bureau have been replaced.
In addition, the early warning system of beacon towers inside and outside the Great Wall, including piers and abutments, are all being reorganized.
In terms of money and food, a large part of it was allocated for this purpose. Thanks to Zheng Sen's help, materials shipped to the north by sea could be transported in a steady stream.
Emperor Chongzhen was already considering awarding Zheng Sen an official title.
At this time, after listening to Emperor Chongzhen's words, Liu Weichao continued: "The war in the south waits for no one, and your propaganda work must keep up as soon as possible. Have you watched the video I just gave you?"
"Yes!" Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said, "Concubine Tian Ai has already gone to work and will give me a result as soon as possible!"
When Liu Weichao heard this, he smiled and said: "I believe they can definitely come up with eye-catching new programs, but Ruan Dacheng is in Fengyang Mansion and he has not watched the video. If he is just asked to create through description, that would be too much.
It’s hard for him. I suggest that it’s not convenient for you to send Concubine Tian, but Chen Yuanyuan can be sent out to assist Ruan Dacheng in creating more programs!”
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he immediately felt that it made sense. He nodded with a smile and said, "This is a good idea. Then I will send Chen Yuanyuan to Fengyang Mansion after they come up with the results!"
"What name?" Liu Weichao heard this and asked Emperor Chongzhen, "You should at least give her an official position, that way it will be easier to do things!"
In his business, Concubine Tian and Chen Yuanyuan helped him. After Chen Yuanyuan joined, she even helped him arrange a lot of music.
Therefore, when he saw this as an opportunity, he wanted to repay Chen Yuanyuan and earn a future for her. Even if he and Chen Yuanyuan had not spoken a word directly, people have to be grateful! It is impossible for two worlds to exist
Have other thoughts!
After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen thought for a moment and felt that it made sense. He nodded and thought about it and said, "Then what kind of official position should I give her?"
There are no female officials in the outer court. But now, Chen Yuanyuan has to be sent to do local work, which is not an easy arrangement.
When Liu Weichao saw it, he immediately suggested to Emperor Chongzhen: "Didn't you establish a new political affairs department? The official positions of this new yamen are brand new. And I think the responsibilities of this yamen are also suitable for women. Look, the program arrangement
Aren't you relying on Concubine Tian and Chen Yuanyuan? Therefore, I suggest that it is reasonable for you to create a new deputy position! "
After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen considered the proposal carefully.
There was no precedent in the Ming Dynasty for women to serve as officials in the outer court. Of course, Emperor Chongzhen had already made too many exceptions, so he didn't care about this one.
As for whether anyone would argue against the ancestral system, he didn't care at all. Emperor Taizu had already appeared, and it was not difficult at all to make the courtiers outside think it was Emperor Taizu's instructions.
While he was thinking about it, Liu Weichao looked at his expression and brainwashed him again: "Didn't I say before that women can hold up half the sky? You also want to mobilize the power of women. This matter cannot be just talked about. What about the Royal Academy of Ming Dynasty?
There are women, but if a woman can be an official, it will definitely stimulate women's enthusiasm, don't you think?"
Due to long-term natural and man-made disasters, the north is in a state of desperate need and is very short of manpower.
Previously, Emperor Chongzhen had already considered the issue of women holding up half the sky after hearing about Liu Weichao's situation.
And Liu Weichao was right. The things that the Political and Communications Department has to do are actually really suitable for women to do.
Therefore, after listening to another suggestion from Liu Weichao, he no longer hesitated and immediately made the decision: "In this case, I will create a new deputy political envoy of the third grade, and give Chen Yuanyuan the same background as a Jinshi to serve as deputy political envoy.
A post.”
When Liu Weichao heard this, he couldn't help but be a little surprised. He didn't expect that Emperor Chongzhen was so courageous, and he was promoted to a third-rank official position as soon as he made a move.
Chen Yuanyuan went from a white body to several levels in a row. The speed of promotion was really faster than an airplane.
While he was thinking about it, Emperor Chongzhen explained: "This Chen Yuanyuan is really proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Concubine Tian Ai also told me about many of the videos I gave you, and they were all made up by her. This
Once, Tian Aifei also took her to adapt it. I think she has the talent to be a good deputy political envoy!"
Having said this, after a pause, Emperor Chongzhen touched his forehead with the hand that was not holding the phone and said: "She has no fame, so if I promote her to a third-grade official at once, I will probably be opposed by the Yushi Yanguan!"
To be honest, this matter is generally quite difficult.
One is because Chen Yuanyuan is a woman, and the other is because Chen Yuanyuan has no fame. As for her background as a famous prostitute in Jiangnan, let’s not talk about it for now. For these two reasons, there are probably many people who oppose it.
If it were the previous Emperor Chongzhen, he would probably give up and not dare to do this.
However, now, especially when he knows that according to the original historical development, he will be the king of subjugation, therefore, he does everything at all costs and does not do things according to the routine at all.
Babaili sent out urgently, and what he found was either knighted or promoted. These were all abnormal methods. However, he did it, and the effect he received was very good.
These experiences made Emperor Chongzhen less scrupulous about doing things in this unconventional way.
At this time, when Liu Weichao heard what Emperor Chongzhen said, he suddenly had an idea and said to him: "That's not good. If anyone makes trouble with this matter, just let it go and let women also participate in the imperial examination. In this way, women will not
You will also have fame!"
After a pause, he added: "You should also know that in my world, everyone has the right to study and take exams. Let me tell you, my classmates in elementary school are still female classmates!"
Speaking of this, Liu Weichao remembered that he used a pencil sharpener to draw a center line in the middle, and the teacher had to fix it for this.
But there is no need to talk to Emperor Chongzhen about this matter.
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he nodded with a little excitement and said: "Yes, I will decree that women can also participate in the imperial examination!"
After a pause, he said with a bit of worry: "It's just that once women also participate in the imperial examination, then more women need to be created to be officials. Or, other original official positions can also be held by women? This is
Aren't you walking too fast?"
At this point, he waved his hand with the hand that was not holding the phone and said: "Forget it, don't worry about it for now. Take it step by step. If you dare to force me, I will show it to them!"
After Liu Weichao heard this, he thought to himself, who is this and if he is stubborn, does he mean to increase the stakes?
Well, let’s forget about this matter and let Emperor Chongzhen go and play with himself first.
With this in mind, he changed the topic and asked Emperor Chongzhen: "Have you not completed the revision of the "Da Ming Code" yet?"
After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen shook his head and said: "There are many arguments. I asked Wang Daban to look at them. Every article is controversial. It is estimated that it will not be revised in a short time!"
After hearing this, Liu Weichao said to him: "There is nothing to argue about the abolition of humble status, right?"
After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said: "I have already made my own decisions. If I abolish the humble status, I will abolish the humble status without giving them a chance to distinguish!"
When Liu Weichao heard this, he reminded him: "In this case, I think it is best for you to spread this matter as soon as possible, especially to the places in the south of the Yangtze River where thieves are in trouble. In this way, these people will definitely not follow the thieves to rebel.
, which is equivalent to weakening the strength of the flow thieves, which will be helpful for you to encircle and suppress the flow thieves."
"You are right, I will explain this matter immediately." Emperor Chongzhen listened and nodded in agreement.
This conversation is over.
In the evening, probably less than three hours later, Concubine Tian sent someone to inform Emperor Chongzhen, saying that the matter she had been told had already been sorted out, and some results had been achieved. Emperor Chongzhen was asked to come over and see what happened when he was free.
Sample?
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he was very surprised. Some results have been achieved in such a short time? Isn't this too fast?
Thinking like this, he immediately put down what he was doing and rushed to Concubine Tian.
