Chapter 154 The post delivery system is thundering, I will kill you directly, it is too cheap for you! (both order plus update)

The tenth day of May.

Zhu Qiyu landed on Qionghua Island.

Today is the day when the lecture hall is listed and the opening ceremony.

Zhu Qiyu looked around, the elite of the Ming army were all in the lecture hall.

There are a total of 378 students in the first phase of the martial arts hall.

Except for the one hundred native children, there are only eight children from common people's families in central Beijing.

The rest are all descendants of the Xunchen family, a total of 270 people.

Zhu Qiyu stood on the high platform, and everyone knelt on the ground.

"Stay flat!" Zhu Qiyu said slowly.

"I (Craftsmen) wait to thank Your Majesty for your grace!" Chen You, Ren Li and others took the lead in standing up.

The students were lazy, their voices were inconsistent, and they called them different names.

"This lecture hall, I'm the sacrificial wine, you are all my students, disciples of the Son of Heaven!"

"Call yourself a student from now on!"

"In the lecture hall, there is no distinction between high and low status, no distinction between high and low titles, no distinction between appearance, temperament, and money!"

"Children from common people's families and children from Xunchen's family are all treated equally!"

"Academic performance is the only criterion for classifying in the lecture hall!"

"I have invited the most powerful generals of Ming Dynasty to teach you."

"It's for you to become useful! To become the pillars of Ming Dynasty!"

"Succeed your teacher and serve in the army!"

"So, I will tell you."

"Don't judge by your background, whether you are a commoner or a bastard, I only judge you by your grades and abilities!"

"Don't think about any talent!"

"Hard work is always more important than talent and background!"

"I have given you a platform to show off. As long as you work hard, you will stand out! You will be valued by me, and you will be the butcher of officials!"

"I have personally formulated a course for you, and will study in closed doors for one year in the lecture hall."

"Those who pass the assessment will be transferred to the frontier army as low-level officers for a period of one year, and those who pass will start from a thousand households."

"Those who have not passed the assessment in the martial arts hall will repeat the study for one year, and after one year, they will be transferred to the frontier army as a low-level officer for three years, and then they will be promoted to a thousand households."

"I hope that you will become the pillars of Daming!"

"Become my vanguard to sweep across Mobei!"

With a tense face, Zhu Qiyu asked in a deep voice, "Did you hear that?"

"Students understand!" Zhu Sheng knelt on the ground.

The movements are not neat at all, lazy, and have no military style.

Zhu Qiyu's face was gloomy: "Every three months, I will come to inspect, and I want to see your progress."

He walked down the high platform and walked to the wordless stele at the entrance of the martial arts hall.

"Bring a pen!"

Feng Xiao offered the brush with both hands, and Zhu Qiyu wrote eight big characters.

"Loyalty and patriotism, courage to move forward."

"These eight characters are the school motto of the Martial Arts Hall!"

"Have you seen this monument?"

"You, those who have made great contributions to the country in the future, your names will be engraved on this monument, alongside the school motto, this is your glory!"

Zhu Qiyu put down his pen.

The eyes of the students lit up, and the younger ones valued the sense of honor more.

"Ren Li, Chen You, Mao Sheng, Liu Pu, Shi Ju, Jiao Li, and Mao Zhong served as vice priests and taught professors."

"The military generals in the court, all of them are professors in the martial arts hall, and they will give lectures in the martial arts hall in their spare time."

"Zouxing in the military aircraft department, and Keqian in Youchunfang Zhongyun, will be the director of the martial arts hall and be in charge of teaching orders."

"Walking in the Military Aircraft Department, and Liu Sheng in Youchunfang Zhongyun, who will serve as the apprentice of the lecture hall and take charge of the academic affairs."

"From now on, Ke Qian and Liu Sheng will be responsible for the internal affairs of the lecture hall."

Zhu Qiyu looked at Ke Qian and Liu Sheng who he had brought.

Ke Qian and Liu Sheng were the champions and second places in Jingtai's second year's examination. They are talents he valued, and they handled government affairs for him in the military aircraft department, and they were also very organized.

Moreover, Ke Qian is extremely talented in literature, planted a bachelor's cypress in the Imperial Academy, and has a noble character.

The "Book of Songs" Wynn read in the past two days is the commentary written by Ke Qian. Zhu Qiyu listened with great interest and was very satisfied with Ke Qian, otherwise he would not have given the lecture hall to him.

"I will obey your orders!"

Ren Li, Ke Qian and others kowtowed.

"My dear friends, I have entrusted you with the future of the Ming army."

"This is the first round, the second round will be recruited next year, and the third round will be recruited the following year. New recruits will be recruited every year, and it will last for a long time."

"Ren Li, Mao Sheng, I know that you have a lot of military skills and want to find someone to inherit the mantle. Among these students, you can pick at random and pass on the mantle."

"If your descendants can't support the lintel, you can also ask the students to help you. I don't need to tell you to glorify the lintel, do you?"

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "If you think the schedule I set is not good, you can change it. You don't need to take into account my face. Everything is practical. Don't do those flashy and empty-headed things. Everyone's time is precious, so don't waste it."

"Go, go and see the students' cafeteria."

The Martial Arts Hall occupies a huge area, and Zhu Qiyu can't wait to give them the entire Qionghua Island.

"I have ordered the guards to martial law the island, and students are not allowed to enter or leave."

"The long gowns, cannons, boots and other items for the students, I ordered the needlework bureau to make them and distribute them later."

"Students are allowed to go home today to visit relatives, and then they are not allowed to go home."

"Ke Qian, Liu Sheng, in the martial arts lecture hall, it's not as relaxing as in the military aircraft department."

Zhu Qiyu laughed.

"The minister is not afraid of hard work." Ke Qian knew that although he was the secretary of the martial arts hall, he was actually offering wine, which meant that these students were all his students, and this connection alone was enough to make his family rich for a hundred years.

After visiting the cafeteria, Zhu Qiyu told Ren Li and others to take care of themselves before returning to the palace.

Zhu Qiyu didn't eat in the lecture hall, so he was worried.

Sitting in the Qianqing Palace, he began to dispose of the memorial.

Immediately, brows frowned.

Snapped!
"Does Zhao Fu eat shit?"

Zhu Qiyu was furious: "Knowing that Xuan Town is still in the rebuilding period, why did you send the soldiers back for the festival? Can you die after a Dragon Boat Festival?"

"As a result, a small group of Oirat cavalry crossed the Great Wall, burned, killed, and looted?"

"Don't you know how to defend yourself?"

"Pass the decree, reprimand Zhao Fu! If you can't do it, get out! There are so many generals in the court who are good at fighting, and I don't lack him alone!"

"Call Zhao Chengqing!"

Zhu Qiyu was furious.

Feng Xiao sent someone to call for someone.

Soon, Zhao Chengqing came in and knelt in the middle of the hall.

"Is your father a fool? You can't do this well?" Zhu Qiyu scolded his head and covered his face.

Throw the memorial in his face.

Zhao Chengqing's head went blank after reading it.

His father is also a titan, how could he make such a low-level mistake?
"Your Majesty, my father...may have been promoted suddenly, and because of carelessness, there were mistakes and omissions." Zhao Chengqing could only find a way to make things right.

But it can't come back.

It's really weird, Zhao Fu is a famous general, and he has a lot of strategy. Yu Qian has praised him more than once. How could he make such a low-level mistake?
Also, when did Daming pay so much attention to the idea of ​​soldiers?

In the eyes of high-level officials, pawns are just a tool for him to obtain military merits. No one cares about the lives of pawns, so pawns are very miserable in the army.

There is also a holiday for the Dragon Boat Festival, and I don’t even have a holiday, so what kind of holiday do the soldiers give?

It's really weird.

After calming down, Zhu Qiyu felt more and more strange.

Coupled with the memorial presented by Shu Liang, the troops from the express delivery shop looted the military resources of the delivery station, no matter how you look at it, it seems like a good show that was directed and performed by itself.

"Zhao Chengqing, is your family rich?" Zhu Qiyu asked suddenly.

Zhao Chengqing was taken aback: "No, I'm not rich."

"Really?" Zhu Qiyu's eyes flickered, apparently in disbelief.

If it is a good show directed and acted by itself, then the people who were burned, killed and looted by the Oirat cavalry must be wealthy households, so how much is Zhao Fu's score?
"My father is as clean as water, and absolutely dare not be greedy!"

Zhao Chengqing's use of "dare not" means that the emperor's investigation of corrupt ink is so strict that his family dare not hit the gun.

Moreover, Zhao Fu was a person valued by the emperor, and his promotion to the title of knighthood was just around the corner. How could he destroy his future?
"You go down first." Zhu Qiyu said lightly.

Zhao Chengqing was stunned, he was ready to be whipped.

He quickly kowtowed to thank him.

"Feng Xiao, what do you think?" Zhu Qiyu looked at Feng Xiao.

Feng Xiao thumped slightly: "Going back to the emperor, this servant thinks that what Zhao Zongbing reported is very strange."

"Tell me in detail."

Feng Xiao replied: "The slaves are just guessing. The so-called Oirat cavalry invasion is very likely to be a good show directed and performed by themselves, robbing the money of the rich and handing over the accounts of the shipping office."

"You mean, Shu Liang checked the post delivery system, which aroused the alert of some people?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

"Going back to the emperor, the slaves dare not speak ill of Mr. Shu, but it is very likely to be so."

Zhu Qiyu was noncommittal.

If it is true as Feng Xiao said, things will happen everywhere, such as the fire burning the warehouse, the refugees rebelling to break through the county seat, and then retake the county seat and so on.

Otherwise, it is Zhao Fu who directs and acts on his own and makes a profit from it.

He went on to read the memorial.

Chen Wang, the commander-in-chief of Guangxi, gave him a memorial, saying that the natives were difficult to rule, and discussed how to eliminate the gap between Ming and soil.

Zhu Qiyu nodded slightly: "This Chen Wang has made progress, probably because he knew that I sent Fang Ying to be the commander-in-chief and was worried that his power would be lost, so he wrote a letter to flatter me."

This Chen Wang was recommended by Yu Qian in the third year of Jingtai.

There is also Weng Xin, the commander-in-chief guarding Guangdong, all of whom were recommended by Yu Qian.

"Put Lianzhou Prefecture under Guangxi."

"Let Chen Wang move to Lianzhou Prefecture and build a ship for me to drive away pirates."

Zhu Qiyu didn't reveal his real purpose. Opening the sea is not something that can be done in a short time. He has to sit in Nanjing himself to forcibly open the sea.

Moreover, Kaihai cannot be anticlimactic like Longqing Kaihai. In the end, the gentry was fattened and the court was thinned, and the gain outweighed the loss.

At least there must be a sufficient number of seagoing ships with the ability to protect themselves before they can consider opening the sea.

"Weng Xin is still the commander-in-chief of Guangdong, under the control of Fang Ying."

"Let Weng Xin supervise the construction of seagoing ships in Leizhou Prefecture."

"Feng Xiao, go find Zheng He's shipbuilding plans when he sailed to the West, copy two copies, and send them to build ships and warships."

Zhu Qiyu instructed: "Take out all the shipbuilding archives, make a copy, and send it to the Ministry of Industry for archives."

"Slaves obey the order!" Feng Xiao didn't understand, why bother.

Zhu Qiyu was worried that a big fire would burn out his shipbuilding dream.

With the money bags of the Jiangnan gentry, they can do anything.

Those censors sent to the south of the Yangtze River made many interesting memorials.

"Send someone to transcribe all the materials in two copies, deposit one in Qianqing Palace and one in Nanjing."

Zhu Qiyu said: "Don't worry for now, just write slowly."

"My lord, shipbuilding is a great secret of the Ming Dynasty. If some pirates spy on them and steal the Nanjing Library, the consequences will be disastrous." Feng Xiao was full of worry.

"Well, then deposit both copies in the Qianqing Palace."

Zhu Qiyu was worried.

Daming's sea-going ships, not to mention the number one in the world, are among the top few.

If there is Zheng He again, he will be able to go to Europe, to America, and across the ocean.

"Feng Xiao, is Wang Jinghong still alive?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

"My lord, the prince passed away in the 13th year of Zhengtong."

Zhu Qiyu sighed, Zhu Qizhen has such a good basic board, if Wang Jinghong is used again, maybe there will be another Zheng He, who will spread the country's prestige overseas and make the Ming Dynasty brilliant!
Alas, if he was smarter, why did Daming go downhill?

Instead, let me worry about it.

"Forget it, let's cultivate talents slowly."

"My lord, the prince compiled a few books and hid them in the Buddhist scripture pavilion, do you want to read them?" Feng Xiao remembered.

"Bring it to me to see."

Zhu Qiyu is not interested in his descendants, nor does he intend to confer titles.

Then read the memorial.

It was getting dark, he took a sip of herbal tea, stood up and stretched himself.

The herbal tea was made by Tan Yunxian to clear the liver and reduce fire.

He began to move his body, sweating profusely, and began to eat dinner, half an hour after dinner, before taking a shower.

For several days, he was buried in boring memorials.

At the same time, bad news came every day at the water horse station from Xuanzhen to the capital.

For several days in a row, Zhu Qiyu roared and became furious in the Qianqing Palace.

Order Dongchang to investigate.

Among them, not many antique jewelry ships from Shanxi sank.

On May [-]th, an urgent report came from Jizhou Town, and Daning was besieged.

"I want to transfer Zhang Gu to the north, what do you think?" Zhu Qiyu sat on the Fengtian Hall with a gloomy expression.

There really isn't much good news lately.

Liaodong was at war, Daning was besieged, and towns in the northwest were harassed by small groups of Oala cavalry, and wars broke out everywhere, causing great losses.

The bad news spread to Beijing like snowflakes, but the more Zhu Qiyu read it, the more unbelievable it became.

It seems that these bad news are all related to money.

All military assets were lost, some military assets were burned, some were robbed, and some money and grain storages were robbed and burned. Almost all of them were related to money.

The answer is already on the horizon.

Shu Liang then ordered Dongchang to search and arrest, but in the end he did find clues.

With this clue, Zhu Qiyu was so angry that he almost exploded.

So, facing up this morning, his face was extremely ugly.

"Gather together ideas and share your opinions," Zhu Qiyu said.

Wang Wei has left Beijing.

The lack of two cabinet members does not hinder normal operation.

"The Xiefan army stationed in Jizhou Town is indeed of little use, and it can also be stationed in Daning." Geng Jiuchou said slowly.

"May I ask Your Majesty, when will Yu Taibao arrive in Daning?" He asked again.

Zhu Qiyu said: "Two days ago, Yu Qian gave me a secret report. The whole army has just been dispatched. It is expected to enter Jizhou Town in about three days, and enter Daning in four to five days."

"My minister thinks that Daning is worry-free!" Geng Jiuchou confirmed.

The courtier followed suit.

According to informants, Mandulu Khan led more than [-] Tatar elite soldiers to encircle Daning and target Beijing.

In fact, he wanted to benefit more from the war, and he didn't want to form a death feud with Daming.

Although Mandulu Khan was the Great Khan of Mongolia, he only integrated the various tribes.

He fought this battle forcefully, not only because he wanted to gain benefits from Daming, but also because he wanted to integrate the tribes, build his own army, and use the tribes for his own use.

But the tribes on the prairie are not fools, they will not willingly work for Mandulu Khan.

There is an opportunity here.

Yu Qian should use fighting as a supplement, and mainly instigate rebellion and bribery.

Zhu Qiyu wrote seven or eight replies to him, told him to pay attention to strategy, gave him many suggestions, and gave him the power to command the two towns of Liaodong and Jizhou, and gave him expedient power.

"Doning don't have to worry."

"On the contrary, in Liaodong, some soldiers from Karaqin attacked Liaoyang, Fushun and Anshan."

"Li Xian is overwhelmed."

"On the contrary, the Jurchens agreed to send troops and were willing to exchange the heads of the Harqin tribe for iron, which eased the pressure on Liaodong a little."

Zhu Qiyu stared at the map with a gloomy expression: "Has Luo Qi arrived in North Korea?"

"Let the king of Joseon send food to Liaodong to support the war."

"After the war, I will pay again, and I won't lose North Korea."

North Korea, the watchdog, is a complete loser.

Every time I buy military rations from him, it costs money, and I have to pay for the military rations myself when I help him fight the war.

It's better to kill the dog and eat meat, at least you can have a full meal.

"Send envoys to Wuliangha again, I can open the Tieling horse market and provide weapons to Wuliangha."

"Then pass an order to the Gaizhou Guard that no entry or exit is allowed at the gate of Gaizhou City, and the Kong family must be settled for the time being."

"The construction of Siping City is temporarily suspended."

Zhu Qiyu paused slightly: "Masters, can you take the Japanese army from Shandong to Liaodong by sea?"

"Your Majesty, what should I do if I encounter pirates?"

Zhang Feng frowned: "Besides, most of the Japanese troops prepared for the war are naval troops, how can we fight on land?"

"Da Ming doesn't have a navy, so it's holding back everywhere!"

"I'm worrying in vain in the court, even if there are soldiers, I won't be able to send them there!"

Zhu Qiyu said angrily: "Decree, Shandong supervises the construction of sea ships, sends Zheng He's fleet's ships and warship maps to Shandong, and orders the shipyard to build more."

The officials of Fengtian Palace faintly felt that the emperor was going to point his sword at the sea.

But no one dared to say no.

The timing of the emperor's choice was very good. Instead of building big ships, they were all small ships. They were probably used to fight pirates and transport troops by the way.

If you want to open the sea, it is useless to rely on such a small boat.

"Pass down the decree to order Liang Ping to pacify the general seal of the Liao Dynasty, change the Henan Beicao Army to the Henan Army, lead the Henan Army, and enter the Liao Dynasty to destroy the captives!"

"Your Majesty must not!"

Before he finished speaking, Hu Wei knelt on the ground: "The capital must not be empty. Liang Ping is the admiral of the nine sects. How can he leave the capital?"

"Your Majesty, the defense of the capital is greater than the world!"

All the officials followed and kowtowed.

"Don't worry, old lady, do you know that the Jiumen Admiral's Mansion has recruited 1 soldiers, plus the previous 6 soldiers, a total of [-] soldiers will be divided into four armies."

"There are horse breeders, bodyguards, and imperial guards in Beijing, and there are nearly 10 people in all."

"Furthermore, the Henan army only has 3 people, stationed in the Beijing camp, and is stable in Beijing, so it doesn't have much to do with it."

"What's more, there is Yu Qian outside, and there are three soldiers who can be transferred, so the capital is safe."

"If it is a last resort, I can also transfer the Shandong army to prepare for the Japanese and the army to protect the grass to Beijing."

However, Hu Wei firmly opposed it.

I think that there are more soldiers in the capital to have a sense of security.

I would rather lose Liaodong than allow the capital to be empty.

Zhu Qiyu was speechless.

But Hu Wei is really good for him.

"Old Madam Fu, Liaodong cannot be defeated..."

"The old minister is well aware of His Majesty's love for Liaodong, but compared with Liaodong, the capital is the most important thing, and if Liang Pang is transferred, who can replace him as the admiral of the Nine Gates?"

The implication of Hu Wei's words is, who can you trust?
Zhu Qiyu frowned.

Indeed, the Jiumen Admiral's Mansion has 6 people, and he doesn't feel at ease if it is in the hands of others, so he wants Wang Cheng to take care of it.

"I plan to transfer Zhao Fu back to Beijing!" Zhu Qiyu gritted his teeth.

"Zhao Fu?"

Hu Wei was worried that Zhao Fu was too young to be the admiral of the nine sects.

"Old Madam Fu, I intend to let Wang Cheng take charge of the Jiumen Admiral's Mansion temporarily. Wang Cheng has also participated in the war. He is loyal and honest, and will never interfere in the interior." Zhu Qiyu wholeheartedly sent Liang Pang out of Beijing to guard Liaodong.

The emperor was determined to support Liaodong.

"Your Majesty, my minister, please go to the Nine Gate Admiral's Mansion!" Yu Shan came out of class and kowtowed.

Zhu Qiyu narrowed his eyes and became angry: "Yu Ge is always unwilling to be a cabinet minister, but wants to get his hands on the military power instead?"

Yu Shan's complexion changed, and he quickly kowtowed: "I have absolutely no intention of meddling in the military power, but just want to share your majesty's worries."

"Hmph, which of the veteran generals in the court, such as Ren Li, Chen You, Mao Sheng, etc., is not better than you?"

"They were raised in Beijing, so they are too old to move!"

"As long as I make an order, who can't lead troops to fight?"

"You will be able to use the wind to make the rudder!"

"Because I used to be my companion, so I can't wait to be such an extremely human minister?"

Zhu Qiyu's tone was contemptuous.

Yu Shan's expression changed wildly.

He did serve as the accompanying student of King Yi, but in the third year of Jingtai, because he opposed the emperor Prince Yi and became angry, the court refused to approve him. Instead, he was named Prince Shao Fu, deliberately disgusting him.

This time, because Wang Wei left the cabinet, he wanted to move up, so he made a statement.

As a result, he was ridiculed by the emperor.

Really lost face, but also lost face.

"I don't dare!" Yu Shan could only kowtow.

"Liang Ping left the capital, there are many candidates to succeed the admiral of the Nine Gates, and it's not your turn to be good!"

Zhu Qiyu's face was gloomy: "Yu Shan, do you know that you have entered the cabinet twice, but you have not been reused by me, what is the reason?"

The atmosphere in Fengtian Hall was sombre, no one expected that the emperor would suddenly attack.

"Because you are too selfish!"

"You were afraid of the restoration of the King of Mobei during the Yi Chu incident, so you were at both ends of the scale and resolutely opposed it, but afterwards you kept clamoring for resignation."

"Until you saw that I was firmly seated on the throne, you started to curry favor with me again, using your previous kindness in it."

"I allow you to enter the cabinet and become an important minister of the court."

"But it's done the best of humanity."

"As the saying goes: It is difficult to send charcoal in the snow, but it is easy to add flowers to the cake, and loyalty is found in adversity."

"Don't you understand such a simple truth?"

"Hmph, why did I allow you to join the cabinet? It's because there is a shortage of people in the court, and I need a piece of wood to stick in the cabinet! It only takes up space, don't talk!"

"you!"

"That's the log!"

"The most useless piece of wood!"

"You don't even know it yet?"

"If you want this or that from me, I see that your skin is thicker than the corner of the city wall!"

Zhu Qiyu was furious at the table, gasped heavily, and said sharply, "Yu Shan, but your piece of wood is not simple."

"Yu Shan, I have known you for more than twenty years, but I have never seen you through!"

"On May [-]th, you sent a letter to Huailaiwei privately. On May [-]th, a fire broke out in the border town of the town, and the military supplies hoarded in the delivery station were burned."

"On May [-]th again, there was a turmoil at the Guanting Reservoir. The reservoir was robbed by water bandits. The reservoir was captured and captured on May [-]th. The military resources in the Guanting Reservoir were all lost."

"On May [-]th, at the Shijingshan Guardhouse, three supplies shipwrecked, one of which contained antiques brought from Shanxi, the value of which is hard to estimate."

"Yu Shan, tell me why?"

Yu Shan's eyes widened suddenly, his face full of grievances: "It has nothing to do with my minister! I have been wronged!"

"Injustice?"

Zhu Qiyu picked up a memorial from the imperial case and threw it on the ground: "Open your dog eyes and see for yourself!"

"Wronged? Are you worthy of being wronged?"

"This is your servant's confession in Dongchang Prison!"

"I really didn't expect that the majestic cabinet minister would actually be in cahoots with the bandits. It's nothing more than greedy for the military supplies of the ink delivery station. He would cooperate with the bandits to rob the military supplies, and then murder and set fire to cover it up. It's inhumane."

"How clever do you think you are?"

"Or are you going to fool me for a fool?"

"Come here, whip him!"

Zhu Qiyu's tone was cold.

Originally, he didn't want to have an attack today, and wanted to see what big fish he could catch again.

But Yu Shan reached out and entered the Nine Gate Admiral's Mansion, what is he going to do?Finished robbing the courier, and then came to rob the palace?

Zheng Youyi entered the hall with a whip.

As if there was no one else around, he lashed at Yu Shan's body with a whip.

"what!"

Yu Shan rolled over and screamed: "Framing! Your Majesty, this is planting! I am a coward, and an official is as clean as water. How dare I risk the disgrace of the world?"

He was very wronged.

He really didn't have an affair with the frontier army, the emperor wanted to impose a crime and there was nothing wrong with it.

"Still quibbling!"

Zhu Qiyu glanced at Feng Xiao, Feng Xiao took out several blood-stained letters and circulated them to all officials.

"Cabinet, you know Yu Shan's handwriting, take a look, is it written by Yu Shan?" Zhu Qiyu sneered.

Zhang Feng could tell at a glance that it was indeed Yu Shan's handwriting.

The cabinet ministers took turns to read it, and they were almost certain that this was Yu Shan's personal letter.

The content of the letter was a poem, and there was no problem in reading it, but there was a problem connecting the first words of the poem together.

This is an acrostic poem, the content of which is extremely cryptic.

"My humble minister is wronged!" Yu Shan refused to admit it.

Snapped!
Zheng Youyi's whip hit him.

Yu Shan kept screaming, but insisted that he was wronged.

"Your Majesty, did you make a mistake?" Yu Gang spoke for him.

In the cabinet, neither he nor Yu Shan was valued by the emperor, so they naturally watched and helped each other.

"The evidence is convincing, can he get away with his stubbornness?"

Zhu Qiyu slowly stood up from the dragon chair: "I don't want to open this hole today!"

"The Tatar soldiers attacked Liaodong."

"My thoughts are all on Liaodong, and I don't want to make extra troubles."

"You just jumped out and put your hand into the nine-door admiral's mansion?"

While speaking, he stepped down from the Danbi.

"Yu Shan, ask yourself, how do I treat you?"

"In terms of talent and learning, you are not as good as Xue Xuan, Xue Xilian, and Song Yan;"

"In terms of politics, you are far inferior to Hu Wei, Zhang Feng, and Geng Jiuchou;"

"In terms of military affairs, you are even worse than Yu Qian, Wang Wei, and Xiang Zhong."

"But you are the prime minister of the cabinet, an extremely human minister!"

"What is it based on?"

"It's my promotion, not your ability!"

"A mediocre talent like you can be found everywhere among officials in the world!"

"The reason why I use you is because you are timid and obedient, and you can't give me a moth!"

"But what did you do?"

"Protect the courier system, let the courier system continue to rot, and let those treacherous villains slap me in the face!"

"Is this what you, Zaifu, should do?"

Zhu Qiyu stretched out his hand: "Come on!"

Snapped!
Zhu Qiyu brandished the whip and whipped Yu Shan hard.

"Ah!" Yu Shan let out an extremely shrill scream.

Zheng Youyi beat him to keep his hand.

But the emperor beat him to kill him completely!
"Now that the evidence is solid, you are still quibbling?"

"Do you think you can get away with the crime?"

Snapped!
In the middle of speaking, Zhu Qiyu swung his whip again.

A clearly visible bloodstain appeared on Yu Shan's back, tearing off the official robe, Yu Shan lay on the ground, curled up into a ball, it was so painful.

"Your Majesty forgive me! Your Majesty forgive me..."

Snapped!
Another whip fell hard.

Yu Shan opened his mouth and vomited out a mouthful of blood, the pain piercing his heart.

Zheng Youyi whipped him three or four times, but the pain was not as severe as the emperor whipped him once.

"I just can't figure it out."

"You are such a timid person, why do you want to cover up for them!"

"why?"

Snapped!
Zhu Qiyu dropped another whip.

Yu Shan refused to say.

"Do you know how much damage has been done to Xuan Town, which is being rebuilt?"

"How many people have suffered disasters?"

"Those supplies were squeezed out from between my teeth, but they were burned by a fire!"

"There are also those countless antiques, which are the treasures of the ancestors, and they must be left to future generations!"

"But because of you!"

"Gone!"

"It's gone!"

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
Zhu Qiyu's eyes were bloodshot, and he frantically swung his whip.

After seven or eight lashes, Yu Shan was already dying, but he still refused to speak out.

"Your Majesty, you can't fight anymore! You can't fight anymore!"

Geng Jiuchou knelt at the emperor's feet: "If you fight again, you will die!"

"I'm going to kill him!"

Zhu Qiyu kicked Geng Jiuchou away, and slapped Yu Shan hard: "I will not only kill you, but also kill your nine clans!"

Yu Shan's eyelids moved, but he didn't say anything.

"Your Majesty, the list can only be given if a person is alive. I beg Your Majesty to show you your hand!" Geng Jiuchou kowtowed.

Snapped!
Zhu Qiyu whipped the whip again, before throwing the whip on the ground angrily: "That's right, I beat him to death, it's too cheap for him!"

"Come on, drag him to Dongchang Prison!"

"Capture the Nine Clans of Yushan!"

Panting heavily, Zhu Qiyu slowly walked up to Dan Bi, with a tense face: "When will the officials of the Ming Dynasty be able to work together?"

"You want an extremely human minister, and I will give it to you!"

"If you want to be prosperous and rich, I will allow you!"

"If you want money or women, I can give them to you!"

"Why? Why can't you focus on building Daming instead of engaging in unnecessary fights?"

"What's the point? Why?"

"Yesterday there was Chen Xun, and today there is Yu Shan."

"Good Daming, he was bitten by this kind of moth! He was bitten to pieces!"

"Decree, Dongchang will go out of Beijing, and arrest all post station personnel along the line from the capital to Xuanzhen!"

"Those who dare to resist will be killed; those who flee, arrest their family members and kill them!"

"Yu Shiyue, this matter is handed over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for trial, I want to see the truth!"

"No matter how many people or whoever is involved, I will arrest them all!"

"Kill what should be killed, and what should be caught, there is no ambiguity!"

Fengtian Hall trembled.

Zhang Feng wanted to persuade, but he didn't know what to persuade the emperor?
Did you persuade the emperor to ignore it?
The border war is imminent, and many provinces are being plowed and cleared. However, the post delivery system is thundering again. It is really not the time.

"My minister obeys the order!" Yu Shiyue immediately accepted the order.

"Yu Gang."

"I sent you to sit here and find out the truth for me."

"Can it be done?"

Zhu Qiyu stared at Yu Gang.

He didn't have a good impression of the two surnamed Yu. This Yu Gang, who worked between him and the king of Mobei, was good at dancing, so he was not a good thing.

Letting the two of them into the cabinet was just a supplement, and he never reused them from the beginning to the end.

"My humble minister will not bear the heavy payment of the Holy Majesty!" Yu Gang hurriedly kowtowed.

Before he excused Yu Shan, he had already touched the emperor's mold.

It was originally Da Lei who dealt with the post delivery system in the world.

However, it was detonated by Yu Shan in advance, resulting in only one line being dealt with, which made Zhu Qiyu very upset: "The Ministry of Punishment, send people along the line of Shuima Post Station to check if there is any problem similar to the Xuanzhen line. If there is, report it to me, and investigate to the end!"

Definitely can't find it out.

Those corrupt officials are smart.

But he couldn't figure it out, why did Yu Shan protect those sinners?

"The war is imminent, this small matter is nothing."

Zhu Qiyu suppressed his displeasure: "Old Madam Fu, I must send Liang Pang to Liaodong to relieve Li Xian's pressure."

"Your Majesty, all the troops in Beijing are newly recruited and untrained. If Daning is broken and the capital is besieged, how can we repel the Tatar army?" Hu Wei still disagreed.

"An elite army cannot be trained overnight."

"Even if Liang Pang and [-] Bei Cao troops are in Beijing, they cannot escape the fate of being besieged."

"Instead of doing that, it is better to keep the enemy out of the country."

Zhu Qiyu has made up his mind: "Masters, there is no need to persuade me anymore, my heart has been made up."

"Military Department, go to the lecture hall to do deduction. Once Daning is forced, how can we rely on the military strength in Beijing to resist the elite Tatars."

"I'll see the result tomorrow."

Sun Yuanzhen, the new minister of the Ministry of War, kowtowed to obey the order.

"My lords, there are indeed difficulties."

"But difficulties must be solved, and we cannot always think about avoiding difficulties."

"That is impossible."

"Besides, Daning has Yu Qian. I don't believe that Yu Qian can't stop mere Mandulu."

Zhu Qiyu's tone changed: "To be honest, Beijing is too close to the enemy's military front. It has no strategic depth and is always passive."

"The Chaotang raises the troops of the Nine Towns just to protect Beijing."

"Because the capital of the country is under the enemy's front, the nine towns dare not attack, they cannot fight in the field, and they dare not fail. They are restrained everywhere. So it's not that the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty can't do it, but the environment is too bad!"

"In the past few days, I have been looking at the map day and night."

"In the final analysis, the location of the capital is too bad."

"The emperor guarding the gate of the country is actually passive and has to guard it. It is not a good thing worthy of praise."

"I also thought about moving the capital back to Nanjing, but with the prosperity of the south of the Yangtze River, within two generations, this huge north will be lost, and the Ming Dynasty will become a small imperial court in the Southern Song Dynasty. This is the historical law of Nanjing as the capital, and no one can escape or change it."

"To solve this problem completely."

"After thinking about it, I came up with two solutions."

"First, the cavalry is trained on a large scale. The court spends a lot of money on recruiting, training, and fighting to train a cavalry that can run across Mobei and must always remain the number one in the world."

"Because the Yongle Dynasty to the Xuande Dynasty proved that the elite troops will grow old and deteriorate, and once they become weak, they will be beaten."

"So, if we must continue to be strong, we need to support war with war, and all the money of the country must be spent on war."

"This is unrealistic. The Ming Dynasty is not a nomadic people. The Han people have homes, land, and property. It is impossible to just rob and not produce. This is not in line with the long-term security policy."

"Second, the border moves north!"

"Keep the enemy out of the country."

"Only with a huge strategic depth can our army be able to defend and attack, without having to worry about defending the capital."

"Look at the map, Zhuqing. If you move north to Helin and build a defense line relying on the Orhun River, the capital of Ming Dynasty will no longer be a border, but a hinterland."

"No matter how bad it is, we have to go to Mount Qiaoba, relying on the Luqu River, so that we have enough strategic depth."

"I know, you will say that the land in Mobei is barren, no crops can be grown, and no food and drink can be supplied."

"I've been looking for it, and I believe it won't be long before such crops will appear."

"At that time, not to mention He Lin, even fishing in the sea, I will take it back!"

Few of the officials in Fengtian Hall responded.

Everyone thinks that the emperor is whimsical.

Wanting to be an emperor through the ages is crazy.

Emperor Taizong was so crazy at the beginning. In the end, because of the natural environment and food problems, he had to throw away these lands and return them to the mainland.

"Your Majesty, the top priority is to guard the border." Hu Yi's words pierced the emperor's ambition.

Please, stop dreaming.

wake up.

Zhu Qiyu clicked his lips: "Okay, then send Liang Pang to Liaodong. Once Daning is broken, the capital will come to guard!"

"That's it for the matter."

"Go down to the court if you have nothing to do, Zhuqing don't have to worry, Daning will not be broken."

Zhu Qiyu has great confidence in Qian.

Because the Tatars didn't really come to fight, they just took advantage and integrated the internal ones by the way.

"I'm waiting to send you to Your Majesty!"

After the court, Zhu Qiyu walked back to Qianqing Palace.

"Xuanliang Pong sees you."

After entering Qianqing Palace, Zhu Qiyu was processing the memorial while drinking herbal tea.

When it was meal time, he moved his body and asked, "Is Liang Ping here?"

"Go back to the emperor, Marquis Baoding is waiting outside the palace." Feng Xiao reported.

"How can I make him wait? Please come in quickly, prepare a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and let him stay for dinner." Zhu Qiyu walked into the dining hall.

Sit on a stool at a round table.

Liang Pang bowed his waist and came in to salute.

"Sit down and have dinner with me." Zhu Qiyu said.

When Feng Xiao moved Jindun, Liang Pang couldn't share a dining table with the emperor. This was the rule.

"There are not so many rules, sit down and eat together."

Zhu Qiyu was trying to buy Liang Ping's heart: "No need to serve dishes, Liang Ping, don't be cautious, you know I don't have so many rules, just sit and use whatever you want."

The meal on the dinner table is very simple, eight dishes and one soup.

The amount of food on the plate is very small, because the emperor forbids waste. He can't eat too much by himself, but he needs to take in more nutrition, so he simply uses a small plate of food.

There are many dishes, but the quantity is very small.

He is not picky about eaters, he eats what is good for his health, no matter how delicious it is.

Zhu Qiyu's appetite has increased recently, and he eats a bowl of rice for a meal, and he can eat more than half of the eight dishes, and the rest will be given to the palace people to reduce waste.

"There aren't many dishes, you don't have to worry about me, just eat what you want."

Zhu Qiyu picked up the bowl and chopsticks, chewed slowly, and ate very well: "I have no choice but to send you out of Beijing."

"You take the Henan Army to prepare for the operation. On the way, you must first collect the morale of the army, and then pay attention to restructuring and change it into the Henan Army."

"I know that there is a lot of water in the 3 people. You have to squeeze it out, and recruit some refugees along the way to fill in the empty space."

"After the war in Liaodong is over, leave the refugees in the Liaodong sub-land. If you want to go to Henan, you can go to Henan to sub-divide the land. It's fine."

"When you arrive in Liaodong, you have to discuss everything with Li Xian."

"Li Xian is a man with a lot of bad intentions, but he is a capable minister. You are right to listen to him."

The primary and secondary relationship must be determined.

It is impossible to send two generals, that would be a hindrance to Li Xian.

Now that you trust Li Xian, no matter what happened in the past, as long as you trust, you will trust to the end, and the sent Liang Pang will also obey Li Xian.

This is Zhu Qiyu's promise and it will not change.

Speaking of this, Zhu Qiyu put down his chopsticks: "These are not enough for me to send you to Liaodong."

"Liang Ping."

"I sent you to Liaodong in the hope that once the Harqin tribe retreats, you have the ability to switch to pursue them!"

"Beat them all, and fight a big victory!"

"That's why I made my own decisions in the court, regardless of the safety of the capital, and insisted on sending you to Liaodong."

"It's because I can't swallow this breath, I want to beat them, hurt them!"

"If you still have enough energy, go to Wuliangha Xuanhe Force and Jurchen Department Xuanhe Force, and let them see how elegant the soldiers of Ming Dynasty are!"

"If Yu Qian finishes fighting ahead of time, I will also send Yu Qian to Liaodong."

"I'm telling you the truth, I want to take back the slave Gandusi."

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "No need to persuade, I know, you have to eat every bite. Your purpose this time is to march into the Xiliao River and defend Jinshan. In this way, Siping City will be completely defended."

Liang Ping breathed a sigh of relief.

He thought the emperor would eat Nuer Gandu Si in one bite.

The geographical environment of Siping City is really superior, surrounded by water on three sides, as long as the city is built by the water and defends the core of Siping City, Siping City will have no worries.

Moreover, Siping City is the junction of the three kingdoms of Ming Dynasty, Tatar and Jurchen.

Once the Ming Dynasty guards an army of [-], either the Tatars and Jurchens will retreat, or they must also guard the army to counter the Ming Dynasty.

Presumably, the people of the grassland will retreat and won't fight a national power war with Da Ming. In that case, Da Ming can easily drag them to death.

"Liang Yu, the tribes in Mobei have always been afraid of power and not virtuous, so we must be afraid of them!"

"It's very important to win a battle."

"If there is a victory in the Northeast, North Korea will be more honest. The Wuliangha people can only be forced to be gentle. They don't have the national power of the Tatars. They dare to wrestle with Daming. The only way to go is to naturalize Daming."

"That's why, Liang Ping, I will try my best to overcome all opinions and hand over the Henan Army to you, so that you can fight a big victory!"

"I'm waiting for you at the center, congratulations!"

Zhu Qiyu picked up the tea and said, "I'll replace wine with tea. I'll toast you a cup first. After you return from victory, I'll toast you with wine!"

"This humble minister will live up to the Holy Majesty's high expectations!" Liang Ping held the teacup, knelt on the ground, drank it respectfully, and then knocked it to the bottom.

"Get up and eat!"

Zhu Qiyu put down the teacup: "If you have any difficulties, please report to me at any time, and I will try my best to solve it for you."

He ate the last grain of rice in the rice bowl, and every grain of rice was painstaking.

It is extremely difficult for the farmers to grow food, and the common people are hungry to support the palace. He must provide the common people with a stable social environment, let alone allow himself and the palace people to waste the blood and sweat of the peasants.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Liang Ping knelt on the ground, and the two of them just finished eating all the food.

After returning from Qianqing Palace, Liang Ping's heart was heavy.

He knew that going to Liaodong was a difficult battle.

The emperor had high hopes for him, but he and the Henan army were not familiar with each other, and he had to go from the capital to Liaodong, which was a long way away.

Moreover, he didn't know the situation in Liaodong at this time, and he was under Li Xian's control.

In short, it is difficult.

But he must fulfill the emperor's wish, and his power comes from the emperor's favor, not his personal ability.

After sending Liang Pang away, Zhu Qiyu looked at the empty plate and smiled suddenly: "That's right, it's best not to waste food every day in the future."

After walking out of the dining hall, he stood in front of the map and looked at it for a long time, and finally sighed with regret. The strategic depth was too short, which made it impossible to take advantage of the Ming army's advantages.

"Pen here!"

Zhu Qiyu drew a stroke on the Salamulun River, which was the border of the Yongle Dynasty.

"No matter how bad it is, we should use Chifeng as the border and move Jizhou Town north to Chifeng."

"Take it back!"

"It must be taken back!"

Zhu Qiyu's eyes were burning.

"My lord, Dongchang came to report that Yu Shan is dead!" Feng Xiao reported cautiously.

"Have you recruited?" Zhu Qiyu's tone was cold.

"No……"

Zhu Qiyu frowned: "Could it be that he was wronged?"

"Going back to the emperor, Mr. Shu sent a message saying that there is no news, and found a large number of letters in his house, which belong to the Zhang family in Pingyang."

"What?" Zhu Qiyu was taken aback, isn't the Zhang family in Pingyang Zhang Renxiao's family?Shanxi Merchants?
"Shu Gonggong's secret performance will be presented soon, please look at it carefully." Feng Xiao did not dare to continue.
