The first assistant of the poor family

Chapter 265 Ma Wensheng is very busy

The waiting time is tormented, but it is worth it.

After some contacts between Wang Shouwen and Xie Pi, many courtiers expressed their support for Xie Shen's Shangshu.

According to the established trajectory of history, Ma Wensheng, Minister of the Ministry of War, should have set an example to play the emperor, but it turned out to be Xie Shen instead.

It is precisely because of Xie Shen's grasp of the main line of history that he boldly speaks out to improve his reputation.

Although he had a lot of prestige before, it was mostly because of his talent. It was indeed very useful before he entered the officialdom, but after he really entered the officialdom, it was not of much benefit.

If you want to help your official career, you must sharpen the reputation of loyal and admonishing ministers.

A few days ago, the effect of speaking for Wang Hua's righteousness was very good, and now everyone knows that Xie Shen is a malleable talent with ideals and ambitions.

The phrase "********,********" resounded through the government and the public, deafening.

Even cabinet leaders Xie Qian, Xu Pu, Liu Jian, and Li Dongyang all played along.

The first memorial always has a special meaning and is the one that attracts the most attention. For a while, Xie Shen actually became a man of influence above all the big shots in the cabinet.

But what surprised Xie Shen was that Ma Wensheng, Minister of the Ministry of War, did not play.At first he thought it was the butterfly effect that caused him to rob Mr. Ma of his luck, but later he realized that Mr. Ma was so busy with the war that he didn't have time to care about such trivial matters among his relatives.

There are two main things that bothered Lord Ma. One was that the little Tatar prince Batu Mengke robbed Datong and Xuanfu, which caused a lot of restlessness in the important border defense town of Ming Dynasty.

Speaking of which, this little prince is the [-]th grandson of Genghis Khan, heir to the golden family of Zheng Miao Hong.

Perhaps Batu Monk was really favored by the heavens. He unified the various tribes of Mongolia in a short period of time, eliminating the situation where the tribes fought independently and split each other.

After unifying the various ministries, the little prince once asked for tribute in the first year of Hongzhi to show his favor to Da Ming.

But wolves are always wild.

After a short period of trading, the little prince Batu Mengke finally showed his fierce side, leading the Mongolian cavalry to plunder the important border town of Ming Dynasty.

These Mongolian cavalry did not attack the city, but they would always fight some autumn winds, which disturbed the soldiers and people of Ming Dynasty in great pain.

Among them, the generation of Datong and Xuanfu suffered the most harassment.No, this year the little prince led more than [-] cavalry to plunder again.

In fact, when you open the map, you can understand why the little prince mainly looted these two places.

Datong Mansion and Xuan Mansion are an overall defense system, with Datong on the outside and Xuan Mansion on the inside, forming the horns of each other.

The establishment of the fourteen guards and three guards of Shanxi Xingdusi is for one purpose-to prevent the Tatars.

In coordination with it, the three guards of the Xuanfu Wanquan Right Guard, Wanquan Left Guard, and Huai'an Guard were also to guard against the Tatars in the north.

After all, before the Jianzhou Jurchen rose to power in the late Ming Dynasty, the threat of the Ming Dynasty came from the north just like the Central Plains dynasties in the previous dynasties.

Of course, from the perspective of all-knowing history, the threat posed by the little prince Baturuk to Daming is not as great as Hongzhi's monarch and ministers imagined. Mr. Ma is a little worried.

If it's really a threat, I'd say that when the soldiers led the army to walk around the capital, Emperor Jiajing was definitely in a cold sweat.

Of course, neither Emperor Hongzhi nor Ma Wensheng, Minister of the Ministry of War, could jump out of the circle of history, and naturally it was impossible to be as calm as Xie Shen.

Another thing that bothered Ma Wensheng was Turpan's attack on Hami.

Since the mid-Tang Dynasty, the Central Plains Dynasty has always had insufficient control over the Western Regions, and the defense line has been shrinking.

By the Ming Dynasty, Hamiwei had become the front line in an absolute sense.

Turpan in the west has been coveting Hami for a long time. Since the sixth year of Hongzhi, its leader, A Heima, led the crowd to plunder and attack Hami several times, which caused Emperor Hongzhi to be furious. He once ordered the closure of Jiayuguan and refused the tribute envoys from Turpan to enter Daming. border.

This is a big event in an absolute sense. It stands to reason that Daming and Turpan cut off diplomatic relations, and it should be Turpan who can't bear it.

After all, Daming has a vast land and rich resources, and there is no shortage of things in Turpan.

Turpan, on the other hand, is a big sesame place. Once the trade is interrupted, the only way to survive is to rely on robbing.

But Ah Heima is a typical example of remembering to eat but not to fight, and still secretly engages in some small tricks.This time, they attacked Hami at night again, looting some Han population.

If Xie Shen remembers correctly, the imperial court responded very positively this time, directly ordering Gansu governor Xu Jin and general Liu Ning to join forces with the local Hami guards to fight back, and achieved a certain victory.

The reason why it is said that this is in a certain sense is because there is really no record that can be achieved.

According to historical records, it was "dozens of beheading thieves and captives."

Of course, in addition to this, there is an empty Hami city.

Xie Shen believes that this is a problem with the deployment of troops in the Ming Dynasty.

In the early and mid-term, we mainly guarded against the Mobei Tatars, and in the middle and late stages, we had to allocate energy to the southeast coast and Liaodong.

And it seems that except for the Hongwu period, the kings of all dynasties after that hardly spent much thought on opening up the Western Regions.

As a major student who has studied Ming history for many years, Xie Shen still has a whole set of ideas about managing the Western Regions. If he has the opportunity in the future, he would like to give it a try.

But all of these have to wait until you have absolute authority in your hands, otherwise it will probably be the moon in the mirror in the water pavilion.

Master Ma was pulling his hair and worrying about these two incidents, so he really didn't care about the fight between Shouning Hou Zhang Heling and Changning Bo Zhou Yu.

Xie Shenben also wanted to do some research on this famous official of Hongzhi at close range, but now it seems that he can only find another opportunity.

However, the effect of Shangshu has been achieved. Not only has he stepped on Shouning Hou Zhang Heling, but he has also gained a lot of prestige. He has been promoted from a rookie who has just entered the official career to a leader in Ci. Then you can chat and laugh with Xie Qian, Li Dongyang and others.

Of course, Xie Shen didn't want to be so high-profile.When the water is full, it will overflow, and when the moon is full, it will lose money. Everything has to be done step by step.

Xie Shen did not receive any additional rewards other than the emperor's verbal commendation.As usual, Xie Shen went to the Hanlin Academy on time every day. While assisting Mr. Wang Hua to direct the five classics doctors, servants, and dictionaries in the office to compile the "Da Ming Hui Dian", he suppressed Zhu Xi, Zhou Zhu, who was overconfident.

Xie Xiuzhuan lived a very comfortable life by enjoying the pleasant things in the ordinary.

This comfort ended on June [-]th.

Xu Guan, the left servant of the Ministry of Industry, who had recuperated for many days in Songjiang Mansion, finally returned to the capital accompanied by his only daughter Xu Qianqian.

Xie Shen had no choice but to comfort himself, the son-in-law would always see his father-in-law.

But what surprised him this time was that he had to meet not only the father-in-law, but also the mother-in-law.
