Alliance of the Heavens and Ming Dynasty

Chapter 257 Arrangement for Zhang and Qi
"My things are not so easy to get."

Looking across the silent crowd, Zhu Houzhao felt a little elated unconsciously.

Play moral kidnapping with him, but who is playing whom is still unknown.

The value of the rune item manufacturing technology is not high to him, and it will gradually depreciate with the flood of rune items in the future, even if it is given to everyone, it will not cause much loss to him.

But rune items and rune power are two completely different concepts.

Rune weapons, rune arrays, and rune building rune power can build a huge set of rune systems, which are applicable to all aspects and are of inestimable value.

Giving the manufacturing technology of rune items to the emperors of Ming Dynasty means that they also have the foundation to study the rune system. Zhu Houzhao doesn't think that only the people in his Zhengde Dynasty are smart people.

There are too many smart people in each dynasty of Ming Dynasty. Give them a foundation, and they will be able to advance by leaps and bounds in technology.

People like Liu Bowen and Yao Guangxiao cannot be judged by common sense.

In order to ensure that he can always be at the forefront of technology, Zhu Houzhao proposed to help various dynasties train "rune masters" to recruit talents.

Technology is dead, and it will be cracked one day, sooner or later, but people are alive, and only by relying on people's smart minds can we create stronger and more advanced technologies.

In a world of great contention, talents are the number one high-level resource.

Therefore, technology can be given, but not in vain, and each dynasty has to pay a certain price, and this price is the outstanding talents of each dynasty.

Of course, there is another important reason for sharing the production technology of rune items with all dynasties.

The future of the sixteen dynasties of the Ming Dynasty is still long. He controls the technology alone, and the other dynasties make slow progress. From the overall perspective, it is not good for him.

Appropriate pulling each side is the way to keep flowing.

Zhu Houzhao has taken great pains to help the dynasties not to fall behind while ensuring his own status.

"We will send people to your Zhengde Dynasty to observe and study in a few days, Zhu Houzhao, you should take care of it."

After some intense psychological struggle, Lao Zhu still ate the "honey" handed over by Zhu Houzhao.

Regardless of whether Zhu Houzhao has evil intentions or not, he is bound to acquire the rune item manufacturing technology.

The same goes for everyone in the old Zhu family.

"We are all one family. I will definitely ask the people from Sun Moon Academy to take care of the students you send."

Zhu Houzhao smiled brightly and was sincerely happy.

We have only harvested the wealth of the various dynasties before, and we will be harvesting talents so soon, can we not be happy!

He has confidence in his Zhengde Dynasty, and some people will never want to go back once they have reached his Zhengde Dynasty!
Zhengde Dynasty's attitude towards talents is not comparable to that of other dynasties.

After getting what they wanted, the atmosphere of the banquet was no longer so stiff. Everyone raised their glasses and sang happily.

At least on the surface, it was a look of joy and joy, and the host and guest had a good time.

After the banquet, Zhu Houzhao returned to his Zhengde Dynasty with Liu Jin, Wang Yangming, and ten sword guards who were waiting outside the imperial garden.

As for Queen Mother Zhang, let Emperor Hongzhi take it away!

Emperor Hongzhi and Empress Dowager Zhang can be described as a model couple of the Ming Dynasty. They were deeply affectionate. They wanted to reunite, and Zhu Houzhao had no reason to stop them.

In the next few months, the selected outstanding students from various dynasties successively sent here. Zhu Houzhao did not make things difficult on purpose. He arranged for the students from all dynasties to study in the Sun Moon Academy, and greatly recruited the outstanding students among them.

The missions of various dynasties are also returning one after another, and they brought back the two people whom Zhu Houzhao deliberately named and recruited.

Zhang Juzheng, Qi Jiguang.

Zhu Houzhao had coveted these two people for a long time, and Zhu Houzhao couldn't wait to see them as soon as the two arrived.

"You two made me wait so long!"

Looking at the paper and martial arts in front of him, Zhu Houzhao smiled lightly.

"Thanks to His Majesty's great love, this old man is ashamed."

Zhang Juzheng was a little moved. Compared to Zhu Yijun who looked down on him like a vengeful enemy, Zhu Houzhao was indeed a wise master, which gave him enough face.

Qi Jiguang was good at fighting, but his IQ as an official was not very high, he just smiled and still thought about it in his heart.

After all, Zhu Houzhao's reputation is not very good. This Zhu Houzhao is ruthless, and the other Zhu Houzhao is ridiculous. He wants to take a look first to see if Zhu Houzhao is worthy of his allegiance.

The ruler chooses the minister, and the minister chooses the ruler.

"Both of you are great talents in this world, how can you teach me?"

Zhang Juzheng and Qi Jiguang intend to consider Zhu Houzhao, and Zhu Houzhao also intends to consider the two.

"coming!"

The two looked at each other and began to talk about the government and military affairs with Zhu Houzhao.

On the way to the Zhengde Dynasty, they asked the head of the mission about the situation of the Zhengde Dynasty, and they had a long-standing plan for this.

Even if you can't say everything about everything, you can guarantee that there are basically no mistakes.

After some conversation, both sides are quite satisfied.

Zhang Juzheng is worthy of being the first ruthless person in Ming Dynasty who dared to carry out reforms. He has many unique insights on reforms, which Zhu Houzhao deeply believes.

Qi Jiguang's military insights are also extraordinary, especially the use of various tactics, which can be called indescribable. The generals under Zhu Houzhao's command are like Mu Kun, Duke of Guizhou, Zhang Mao, Duke of England, Chen Jiuchou, Chen Wu, Li Min And others, compared to Qi Jiguang, are much worse.

Among the four generals in the military department, Qi Jiguang is one of them.

Zhu Houzhao vigorously implemented reforms, abolished all kinds of bad policies, banned the governor's office of the five armies, turned it into a military department, and expanded the military. Zhang Juzheng and Qi Jiguang admired Zhang Juzheng and Qi Jiguang for all his actions.

To be able to make drastic reforms and rectify military affairs, with such boldness, no hero can do it.

The three chatted from morning to night, although the time was not long, they had established a basic friendship between monarch and minister.

Although Zhu Houzhao's character is not the kind of benevolent monarch they like, only Zhu Houzhao can support them to fulfill their grand ambitions.

Zhang Juzheng and Qi Jiguang have just entered the imperial court, and they have not made an inch of merit. It is impossible to reach the sky in one step. Zhu Houzhao needs to consider the feelings of the ministers of the court.

The two newcomers, as soon as they arrived, took a high position that no one else dared to think about. This made the officials think, and it would easily lead to conflicts among the officials and lead to turmoil in the court.

After comprehensive consideration, Zhu Houzhao arranged Zhang Juzheng into the household department and Qi Jiguang to Fujian, starting from a lower level and making achievements, so that no one would object to their promotion in the future.

With the abilities of Zhang Juzheng and Qi Jiguang, it is not difficult to make achievements. Presumably, it will not take long before they will naturally enter the core circle of power in the Zhengde Dynasty.

With the emperor behind him, and his own ability is not bad, it is hard to think about not developing.

The Zhengde Dynasty is not like other dynasties. It will not adjust the broken rules of suppressing martial arts with literature and promoting officials based on seniority.

Nine out of ten officials who engage in that kind of work are still cultivating land in Liaodong, working hard, and making outstanding contributions to the development and utilization of Liaodong and population growth.

After Zhang Juzheng and Qi Jiguang were settled, students from the Zhengde dynasty went to other dynasties to study and practice.

Those students made a lot of noise during their study tours in various dynasties.
