Invincible Zhengde

Chapter 258 Reusing Wang Shouren

Inside the palace, Zhu Houzhao was feeding the fish. Behind Zhu Houzhao, Wang Shouren reported to Zhu Houzhao about the military reform.The military reform of the Beijing camp this time is actually a reorganization of the Black Dragon Army. Many old people have been transferred. Of course, most of them have been promoted.

In addition, the first batch of graduates from the Martial Academy entered the Black Dragon Army. After three years of study and training, these people will quickly integrate into it.

"Your Highness, the basic situation is like this. Most of the nobles are disqualified, and less than [-]% of them are qualified." After saying this, Wang Shouren stepped aside with a serious expression on his face.

In fact, it is indeed a bit serious. Neither Zhu Houzhao nor Wang Shouren expected that the pass rate would be so low, but it doesn't matter. It is impossible for Zhu Houzhao to arrange a place for these people to retire. The army is not a place to raise idlers.Nodding, Zhu Houzhao sprinkled the fish food in his hand into the water, then nodded and said, "I know."

At this point in the matter, there is naturally no reason to back down. Zhu Houzhao must continue to move forward. Now that he has money and someone in his hands, he will naturally not back down.

Wang Shouren didn't expect his highness to be so downplaying. He wanted to say something several times, but he didn't know what to say, so he had to keep his mouth shut.

"Okay, you step back!" Zhu Houzhao waved his hand to signal Wang Shouren to step back, and seemed to remember something and said: "The staff office will be up and running in the next two days, and your walking seat has been confirmed. Your official position, the title of Minister of the Ministry of War, Admiral of the Beijing Camp, work hard, don't let me down."

Hearing Zhu Houzhao's words, Wang Shouren was stunned immediately, and then knelt down on the ground with a plop: "I will definitely live up to Your Highness's kindness."

You must know that the admiral of the Beijing camp is not small. According to the existing system, the tenth regiment battalion of the Beijing camp is commanded by a commander-in-chief, and the supervisor is appointed as an admiral by a minister, the minister of the Ministry of War, or the imperial censor.

The current commander-in-chief of the Beijing camp is naturally Zhu Houzhao, and Wang Shouren directly added the title of Minister of the Ministry of War as admiral. This is reuse!In addition to Zhu Houzhao's status as the prince, Wang Shouren is basically in command of the entire Beijing camp, and this power has grown.This appointment and trust is naturally a kindness of knowledge, how could Wang Shouren not be excited.

Zhu Houzhao waved his hands and said with a smile: "Okay, we can get along well with each other, so these common etiquettes will be avoided!"

"Resign!" Wang Shouren stood up, said respectfully, and then bowed and retreated.

After several years of training, coupled with his own talent and hard work, Wang Shouren's military talents have been greatly developed. After all, Wang Shouren has been with the Black Dragon Army since it was first established. On the grassland battlefield, he also led the army to surprise Fengzhou Beach. Zhu Houzhao naturally trusted his ability.

Military and political reforms will continue, and at the same time, Zhu Houzhao will focus on the reform of civil servants and taxes. This also requires Zhu Houzhao's great efforts.

Wang Shouren left, and Zhu Houzhao didn't have much expression on his face. He knew that this was just the beginning, and more things were yet to come.After pondering for a moment, Zhu Houzhao thought of another matter, turned around and said to Liu Jin who was standing behind him: "How is the public opinion outside these days? Is there any progress in the matter of Zhuangtian?"

"Back to His Royal Highness, the nobles are very active these days, whether it is the British government or the Shouning Marquis, there are many people in the house." Liu Jin quickly agreed.

Zhu Houzhao nodded. Sure enough, these people were still afraid of power and morality. When Zhu Houzhao was about to continue feeding the fish, He Neng ran over from a distance.Taking a look at He Neng's appearance, Zhu Houzhao knew that there was something to do, and he was not going to get fish food. Zhu Houzhao turned around, looked at He Neng, and waited for him to come to his side.

"His Royal Highness!" After seeing Zhu Houzhao, He Neng quickly bowed and saluted with a very polite tone and a very respectful attitude.

Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then asked, "What's the matter?"

"Go back to His Highness the Crown Prince, the Emperor invites His Highness the Crown Prince to come over." He Neng quickly bowed and said, the expression on his face was still respectful.

Without hesitation, Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then said: "Let's go!" After speaking, he walked towards Qianqing Palace.Soon Zhu Houzhao arrived at Qianqing Palace, and saw the irritable father. Obviously, the father encountered a problem again this time. When he saw his son coming, he snorted angrily and glared at him at the same time.

Zhu Houzhao didn't care, he saluted his father respectfully, and then said, "I have seen my father?"

"Okay, don't make up such nonsense!" Zhu Youtang waved his hand angrily, pointed to the memorial on the table and said, "Look for yourself!"

Zhu Houzhao walked over to pick up the memorial, and found that it was basically the impeachment of those nobles. This time, the civil servants were in a group, and even the three cabinet scholars were included in the memorial.Obviously, these three people have become targets.The three academicians in the cabinet were cowardly on the issue of the staff office, and this time they are going to stand up and express their views.

They are not afraid of offending the nobles, and they must firmly express that they are with the gentry group. Under such circumstances, the behavior of the three major scholars in the inner circle is very understandable.

The contents of the memorial are similar, basically they are severely punished, and the meaning is obvious, those who are dismissed from office, confiscated titles and property are all those who have a low voice, and those who have a loud voice will be beheaded immediately.Of course, this is just talk, beheading is impossible no matter what, but many people have proposed distribution, this is a very serious matter, and it is impossible for the father to give a light sentence.

Zhu Houzhao also knew what his father was upset about, so he put down the memorial in his hand, and Zhu Houzhao said with a smile: "Father, according to what I said before, it is enough to dismiss him from office and seize the title." Seeing that his father was going to be angry, Zhu Houzhao quickly added : "As for the confiscation of family property, there is no need. Let them return the occupied fields and compensate the victims."

"Those slaves who beat the common people to death will be dealt with according to the criminal law. Those who should be exiled, and those who should be beheaded, can be regarded as a respect for Xungui."

After hearing what his son said, Zhu Youtang thought for a while, and finally nodded in satisfaction. He felt that what his son said made sense. After removing the compensation money, they should still have a lot left. Instead of confiscating their property, they took these It is a way to get the best of both worlds, so he nodded and said, "That's fine, just do as you say!"

Zhu Houzhao glanced helplessly at his father, his father is really innocent!
