The Great Industrial Ming Dynasty Started from Beiping

Chapter 149
On the streets of Beiping City, steamers selling steamed buns exude white water vapor, drifting towards the street in the middle.

From time to time, people buy a few steamed buns at the stalls, some people sit on the bench to eat, and some people eat in a hurry while walking.

"Big and fragrant steamed buns." The small street vendor shouted while watching people.

Waiting for the big one and the young one in front, the two obviously master and servant walked over, without even looking at their side, they withdrew their gazes.

Zhu Gaochi frowned, followed by Zhang Quan, who kept walking all the way, preparing to go to the gate of Qingshou Temple.

The big blue jade case has just begun, and the criminals who have been implicated, the ministers who have been arrested, will definitely not escape.

These people were done with one blow. As for the prisoners detained in various places, they could not be sent to Liaodong in a short time.

Although some of the plans have been achieved, they are far from their own goals.

Zhu Di is still too conservative.

"The imperial court will definitely cut down the feudal clan in the future."

Zhu Gaochi said with certainty.

Sitting below are Yao Guangxiao and Jin Zhong.

Hearing the eldest son's words, Yao Guangxiao's face remained normal, and Jin Zhong frowned in thought.

"As for how far it will be cut, no one knows, but taking this opportunity to strengthen one's own strength is the best way."

Zhu Gaochi laughed.

To what extent?To the point of death.

Yao Guangxiao is a staunch rebel and careerist; Jin Zhong's evaluation is self-taught, in other words, he is a white man.

The current status in the palace depends entirely on Zhu Di's promotion.

Without Zhu Di, not to mention the achievements of the future ministers of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War, even the current vassals of the Changshi Mansion are not qualified.

Jin Zhong's future depends entirely on Zhu Di alone.

So the two played a key role in Zhu Di's determination to rebel, because they both knew that without Zhu Di, they were nothing.

Does Zhu Di dare to rebel?
dare not.

Seeing his military power being seized, watching his guards being transferred to Liaodong, he didn't dare to let a fart go, he just wanted to pretend to be crazy to save his life.

The palace was surrounded, and someone tipped off the news, knowing that he would surely die, and with the encouragement of Yao Guangxiao and Jin Zhong, he made up his mind to fight to the death.

Zhu Gaochi didn't count on Zhu Di at all.

On the contrary, the two people in front of him are the ones with him.

"The Lanyu case involves many people. We estimate that there are at least 2 people. Even if they are sent to Liaodong, it will be a big force."

"We want to keep this power in our pockets, and use this opportunity to win over the military power in Liaodong." Zhu Gaochi asked the two to help persuade Zhu Di for himself.

These more than [-] people are different from the criminals assigned by the West.

The more than [-] people involved in the Lanyu case, except for the general Xun Chen, most of them are middle and lower rank generals in the Lanyu Army.

It is equivalent to an officer with actual combat experience.

"My lord is a bit cautious." Yao Guangxiao glanced at Jin Zhong, who was recommended by him to the lord, because he felt that Jin Zhong was similar to him.

really.

Not only was Jin Zhong not intimidated by Zhu Gaochi's words, but he said seriously: "The sage's enfeoffment strategy plays a vital role in stabilizing the frontier."

"Everyone in the court only sees the precedent and regards the vassal king as a catastrophe. They don't see the benefits to the country at all. It's really biased."

Zhu Gaochi nodded in agreement.

Of course Jin Zhong had to say that, the reduction of the vassals would affect the palace, like Ge Cheng and Yu Fengchen, they are well-known, and they are serious officials, and they are still officials after leaving the palace.

Jin Zhong lost the feudal prince's mansion and immediately turned back to white.

The two sides are fundamentally different.

Zhu Gaochi agrees with Yao Guangxiao, and naturally he also agrees with Jin Zhong recommended by Yao Guangxiao. They are all from the same path.

"From among the trustworthy generals, assign to Jinzhou to be responsible for supervising these more than ten thousand people, and we must also recruit them."

"There are two problems, one is how to convince the father, the other is who is the most suitable?" Zhu Gaochi asked.

"Golden State?"

Jin Zhong reminded: "This is not a good place."

Golden State is certainly a good place.

But it's really not a good place right now.

He was harassed by Japanese pirates six years ago, and was harassed by Japanese pirates last month. He was repulsed by the Jinzhou Guard, so the Japanese pirates did not get cheap.

The sea is vast, and the hardest thing to fight is pirates.

Especially the long coastline of Daming, not to mention the strength of Daming's current navy, even if it has been increased tenfold, it will not be able to stop pirates.

"Sometimes, troubles can also be regarded as opportunities." Zhu Gaochi laughed.

golden state.

It was a place he chose on purpose.

Not only will it be the most affluent place in eastern Liaodong in the future, with abundant mineral resources in the territory, but also a superior port location.

Jinzhou is also the future Dalian, one of the cities with the strongest economy in the Northeast, and it is a first-class place in the Northeast in terms of climate and resources.

And now.

Japan entered the Warring States Period from the Southern and Northern Dynasties era, and frequent domestic wars caused a large number of people to flee the country.

These people undoubtedly make a living and can only be pirates.

Beginning this year, Japanese pirates will harass the coastal area of ​​Jinzhou every year, including North Korea, which was given the title of the country by Zhu Yuanzhang and changed its name only two years ago.

"Jinzhouwei has only one thousand households. In the previous war with the Japanese pirates, although they did not suffer losses, they did not hurt the Japanese pirates either."

"Based on the character of the Japanese pirates that we know, they are fearful of power and not afraid of morality. If they are not subdued, they will not be obedient. It is estimated that the Golden State will not be peaceful in the past few years."

"In the face of this situation, Golden State Guard will definitely expand. We have the advantage of being close to the water and seizing the opportunity first. The benefits will only be snatched by us."

The eldest son has far-sighted plans.

Yao Guangxiao and Jin Zhong looked at each other after listening and came to this conclusion.

"Even if only 3000 people are selected from the exiles, with the abilities and experience of these 3000 people, we can expand [-] elite soldiers."

Zhu Gaochi said softly.

Yao Guangxiao didn't hesitate any longer, and took the initiative to say: "The poor monk is going to persuade the King of Yan, but the selection of this person must be discussed in the long run."

Yao Guangxiao is just a counselor, and he is still a rookie. It has only been two or three years, and he doesn't know much about the inside of Beiping.

The few military officers I know are not suitable.

"I know someone." Jin Zhong smiled.

Although he came from a humble background, he came to Peiping when he was a child, and he has a family education. He is considered a local, and his understanding of the guards is better than Yao Guangxiao's.

"Sun Yan Qianhu."

"This person is General Yan Shanwei, a close friend of King Yan."

"Sun Yan?" Zhu Gaochi asked curiously, he had never seen this person before, and Yao Guangxiao couldn't recall him either.

"Eldest Young Master and Master Yao don't know this person, because this person has been in office for many years."

"Ask him to come out again."

Zhu Gaochi immediately made a decision.

He also has people he trusts, such as Zhu Neng, Qiu Fu, etc.

But these people are not suitable, because their identities are too obvious. The capital of Liaodong has nothing to do with Beiping, and belongs to Shandong.

King Yan's Mansion stretched its hand too far, Shandong will have an idea.

On the contrary, the person proposed by Jin Zhong, although he also has the label of King Yan's Mansion, is not as conspicuous as these serving generals, and both sides have a step.

The imperial court ordered Yan Wangfu to supervise and send a person who is an official, which gave Shandong Chief Secretary enough face.

……

Wangfu.

Zhu Di sighed, the princess couldn't see it.

"Your son has split the palace to the point that he is about to form a faction. His wings are hardened and he can't control it anymore!"

Xu was baffled and didn't know what nonsense Zhu Di was talking about.

Rolling his eyes, he laughed and said: "Who is so happy that he can't close his mouth from ear to ear, and he praises himself for having a good son when he sees people, why is he blaming others again?"

"Boss used to be submissive, which made people angry, but now his personality has changed. We were really happy at first, but who would have thought that Boss would be so aggressive."

Zhu Di told about Zhu Gaochi's attitude recently, and Xu listened carefully.

"The current Changshi Mansion is purely owned by the little demon Feng Da, and it has been divided into three factions."

"Ge Cheng is flexible in doing things, but generally remains in the right order. Yu Fengchen abides by the rules and will not be flexible at all. Yao Guangxiao is a bit radical."

"But Yao Guangxiao is a foreigner. Although we value him, he can't influence the Changshi Mansion, so the Changshi Mansion has been relatively stable for many years."

"He also saw his own weakness. Last year, he recommended a talent. We tested and taught him a lot, and he was indeed very talented, so he promoted this person to the Changshi Mansion regardless of his background."

"Even so, it shouldn't be a storm, but who would have thought that the boss would join in?"

"Your son, Yao Guangxiao, and Jin Zhong, the three of them are about to form a gang. They don't know what they are plotting all day long, which makes us feel uneasy."

Xu felt it was amused, and said with a smile: "Are you afraid that your son will rebel against you?"

Zhu Di squinted his eyes, and smiled.

"Don't underestimate your son."

"Then tell me, what's wrong, boss."

"Yao Guangxiao and Jin Zhong's talents, you know it without mentioning it, and we don't mention China Heavy Industries. As for our three guards in Yanshan, Zhang Yu and his son in the left guard, I am afraid that you will be closer to your son."

"There are also Zhu Neng of the center guard, and Chen Gui of the right guard. Look, you need literature, you want literature, you want martial arts, and you want wealth."

Seeing that Zhu Di was serious, Mrs. Xu gradually put away her smiling face and said nonchalantly, "You are worried that the boss will rebel against you."

Zhu Di shook his head.

"We are not afraid of him rebelling against us, but we are afraid of him rebelling against the court."

Zhu Di's words frightened Xu Shi.

half an hour.

Xu said quietly: "Boss is not this kind of person."

"But what he is doing is these preparations." Zhu Di said lightly, "The steps are getting bigger and bigger, and the bets are getting more and more bold."

"Yao Guangyao came to persuade us today and recommended someone, do you know who it is?"

Xu showed a curious look.

"Sun Yan, the official."

"He, why do you think of him?" Xu said in surprise. In terms of the degree of confidant, this person can be ranked among the top three before he becomes an official.

"Your son has a big heart, plotting against Liaodong."

Zhu Di sighed.

The heart is a little complicated, the movement of the court, and a series of actions of the prince's department before the eldest brother passed away.

And in the past 20 years, the theory of the threat of vassal kings has never stopped in the court.

These people talk about the vassal king as a threat to the country every day, and never cared about their feelings.

The northern regions have today's stability and prosperity. Don't they have credit for their feudal lords?
Zhu Di was unconvinced, but also helpless.
