Chapter 299 Recipes
No major incidents have happened in the imperial court recently. Since the peace talks with Al Da Khan, the beacons that had been burning for decades on the Nine Sides have gradually extinguished.

In the autumn of the fifth year of Longqing, Gao Gong became a bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion and officially became the chief assistant of the empire.

Immediately afterwards, Gao Gong was beaten.

The one who beat him was Yin Shidan, a minister of the cabinet, and the old man of Yin Pavilion was also a teacher of Prince Yu's mansion. Speaking of which, all the cabinet ministers today were colleagues in the early years.However, Yin Ge was quick-tempered and Gao Ge was always arrogant, so they didn't get along very well. Gao Gong refused to agree to Yin Shidan's entry into the cabinet. In the end, he followed the path of Chen Hong, the chief of ceremonies, to join the cabinet.

"The cause of the incident is that Mr. Gao Ge expelled Chen Yiqin, Zhao Zhenji, and Li Chunfang from the cabinet one after another. Now, if you want Zhang Siwei to join the cabinet, it will be a matter of time before Mr. Yin Ge."

Xu Jue cocked his feet and sat on a five-jin cannon by the side of the Artillery School of the Xuanfu Lecture Hall, and smiled relaxedly at Chen Mu: "The reason is that the impeachment of Mr. Yin Ge by Han Ji is just in time for the middle of the month." If you want to join the cabinet to pay a visit, there will be quarrels, old man Yin Ge has a bad temper, and he rolls up his sleeves and pulls old man Gao Ge by his collar to beat him up."

"Fortunately, there were people around to stop it, so that the 15-year chaos of Orthodoxy did not happen."

In the 15th year of orthodoxy, Wang Zhen and his confidants were besieged and beaten by court officials, and several people even died.Gao Gong was obviously not so angry, Xu Jue smiled and said: "Zhang Cifu went to fight and was scolded by Elder Yin Ge, but it was also because he stopped Elder Gao Ge that he didn't get punched a few times."

"Zhang Cifu stopped the fight?"

Sitting on the cannon of General Zhenshuo, Chen Mu was noncommittal about this. It seemed that the sixth year of Longqing would be around, and as Zhang Juzheng's wings grew, Gao Gong would be able to stay in the chief assistant's seat for a few days, Chen Mu didn't know.

But the current situation looks like they are still on the same front.

"How can we not stop it? Mr. Gao Ge is fifty-eight years old, Yin Ge is old by forty-nine, and Zhang Cifu is four or five years younger than Yin Ge. How about he stop the two assistant ministers from fighting in the cabinet?" Anyway, isn't it a big joke!"

Speaking of which, Xu Jue turned his gaze to Chen Mu, paused for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It seems that General Chen hasn't lost his martial skills when he came to the north. He didn't notice it last winter, but his physique is stronger this year."

"I was born in Xiaoqi, and I became the general banner only by killing some thieves with my strength. Besides, it is common to send troops and release horses for a month or two. Although most of them rely on blunderbuss, I still use blunderbusses to swing them." As for how many people died, martial art is the same as shooting accuracy, it is a technique."

Chen Mu said with a smile: "The Yongding River in the Military Weapons Bureau wears breastplates and leg armors every day, and together with the family soldiers, they go back and forth to compile books with Daoyou two."

"River cruise?"

Chen Mu nodded, "If you haven't been in the water for a few months, you will feel weak. The river is different from the sea, and it is the same in peacetime and wartime. There is no wind, waves, currents, and no warships colliding with guns. It is narrow enough to swim back and forth, and falling into the water during a sea battle can only keep you from sinking to the bottom."

Xu Jue nodded again and again, waved his hands and said with a silly smile: "You don't understand the naval battle, I know you can fight it. Qingshankou, your son led a team of chariots and artillery to run away and find the barbarians. When will the martial arts lecture begin?"

Now the huge martial arts lecture hall has been basically completed, occupying a large area outside Xuanfu City, such as cooks, grooms and other manpower have also been recruited, just waiting for the class to start.

"The textbooks of each subject have been compiled, and most of the teaching selection is done. Now we are selecting the first batch of students from the hundred households of the Wanquandu Division. The class can start after delivery in a few days." Chen Mu clapped his hands, in a good mood, and opened his arms proudly to Xu Jue: "Five Soldiers and Fifteen Subjects Course, two and a half years of schooling, learn to send troops to be generals!"

Of course Chen Mu is worthy of pride. Although he supervised the construction of the first new artillery and the first new warship in the Ming Dynasty, how can these be as proud as the first military academy?

"We know about your five soldiers, the cavalrymen of the infantry and chariots, their ears are all callused after hearing it in the Beijing camp recently, what are the fifteen subjects?" Xu Jue raised his hand and counted his knuckles, and said: "The ten subjects of the Tongtai Hospital Same subject?"

"Haha, yes, exactly the same!"

Chen Mu laughed. The thirteen departments of medicine in the Yuan Dynasty were changed in the Ming Dynasty, and there were [-] independent research departments of Dafangmai, Xiaofangmai, Women, Surgery, Acupuncture, Eyes, Articulation, Throat, Typhoid, Orthopedics, and Pox, which was the development of medicine in the Ming Dynasty. Lay the groundwork.

Now that he has set up fifteen military departments, it would be easier to study military technology even without him in the future.

"The two subjects of Confucian classics and mathematics are the foundation of everything. They are used for literacy and numeracy; the four subjects of military law, tactics, weaponry, and military system include large strategies and small tactics. The equipment used is an essential subject for large and small battle formations." .”

"The four subjects of geography, astronomy, topography, and surveying and mapping are indispensable subjects for generals; the four subjects of fortification, hygiene, marching, and logistics are also indispensable."

Xu Jue was confused, some of these things he had heard of, some he had never heard of, he nodded with half understanding, pointed his finger and said: "This is only fourteen subjects, there is one more subject? "

When mentioning the last subject, Chen Mu suddenly smiled, and said, "The last subject is called Honors. Although it's called that, what it teaches is loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, and how to get along with officials."

"In two and a half years, learn all the subjects in the first year. If you fail the end-of-year exam, you will retake it for another year. Those who pass the standard will choose six subjects to study in the next year. Department, and the students and teaching of the same period are mutually confirmed, and the graduation certificate will be jointly issued by His Majesty, Chief Assistant, and Minister of the Ministry of War."

"Chen has communicated well with His Majesty, the cabinet, and the Ministry of War. From now on, the chief assistant will also serve as the head of the mountain. After the Minister of the Ministry of War retires, he will serve as the prime minister in the lecture hall for one to three years. The minister of the Ministry of War will serve as an instructor after his appointment. The hall is the master of teaching and discipline, and the master is the master who specializes in the study of a certain subject."

After Chen Mu finished speaking, Xu Jue shook his head with wide eyes and said with emotion: "It's not easy. I said why you swim the river all day long. It turns out that you are going to Nanyang... If you don't go, this martial arts lecture will not last long."

Chen Mu gave Xu Jue a thumbs up.

This is obviously an expert in court struggle. Needless to say, the significance of the martial arts hall to promote military progress can be seen by the blind.But in addition, it doesn't mean much to warriors, which means that from now on there is no need for martial arts. After studying in the martial arts hall, you will be the emperor's disciple after you leave the mountain.

"Chen is no longer needed in the north. The deficiencies of the defense line have been eradicated, and income and expenditure are no longer a major problem. In the future, what is lacking is supervision; the Military Weapons Bureau and the Lecture Hall have also been completed, and the teaching materials have been compiled. In the future, only the students graduate from college. Being reused, there is only one thing left for Chen to do."

"what's up?"

Chen Mu narrowed his eyes and smiled, shook his head at Xu Jue, and said, "This matter has nothing to do with Brother Xu, but Chen plans to give Brother Xu another big gift."

When Xu Jue heard what Chen Mu said, his eyes lit up immediately, and he rubbed his hands and asked, "What does the general want to give Xu?"

"A recipe."

Chen Mu smiled and got up from General Zhenshuo's cannon, and took out a roll of scarf from his sleeve, "It can strengthen muscles and bones, prolong life, but avoid aphrodisiacs. Brother Xu, do you know where to send this?"

　Good morning!
