Zhou Zheng smiled, but he was still thinking about the great changes in the court.
In this great change, no one can tell who will benefit. There is no winner in this chaos, and Ming is the biggest loser.
However, the chaos of the imperial court did give Zhou Zheng a chance. Not only could he get out and concentrate on his innovations in the three places in Liaodong, but he could also obtain the policies he needed from it.
This year, for Daming, should be a relatively good period of more than ten years. The prisoners did not come, and the rebellion in the northwest almost disappeared. Except for the fierce battles of the court, there was a tendency for everything else to be thriving and prosperous.
In August, Zhou was in Tianjin Satellite TV to inspect the navy.
The Ming Dynasty navy was basically divided into two parts, one in Bohai Bay and the other in Fujian.
Bohai belonged to the governor of Denglai and placed in Lushun and Weihaiwei.
A total of sixty official warships, excluding other small boats, the number of soldiers is six thousand two hundred and seventy.
The navy conducted an exercise in Tianjin Weihai. Zhou Zheng invited officials from the imperial court, Shandong, Liaodong and other officials to observe and observe. There were also some Koreans, Japanese, and Xiyi people, not many in number.
The intensity of the exercise is also limited, and it is nothing more than sea shelling and landing operations. In Zhou Zheng's eyes, this was just a start. Whether it was warships, number of soldiers, weapons and equipment, or methods of warfare, they were all extremely immature.
But now Zhou Zheng can't do too much, and he can't eat the fat man in one bite, so he needs to slowly lay the foundation.
The imperial court and local officials were very satisfied, and they kept their rainbow farts on Zhou Zheng.
Xiyi, Waguo and others looked solemn and whispered.
After serving a group of people, Zhou Zheng stood in a restaurant with alcohol, looking at Tianjin Weihai.
Standing behind Zhou Zheng, Huang Long smiled and said, "My lord, this exercise was very successful. The people in the Ministry of War are very satisfied, saying that it is a book to ask the adults for credit."
Zhou Zheng waved his hand and looked at the surface of the sea and said, "There should be someone in the navy who is in charge. Who do you think is more appropriate?"
Huang Long was taken aback, thought about it, and suddenly said, "My lord, please show me."
At this time, Shangguan Lie came in with a plate, and said anxiously: "Brother-in-law, drink some sober tea, otherwise I will definitely say you when I go back."
If it was in the past, Shangguanqing would not say anything, now-Shangguanqing is pregnant.
Zhou Zheng raised his brows, took the bowl helplessly, took a sip, and said, "Who do you think is better for the navy?"
Under Zhou Zheng's hands, there are actually a lot of talents, especially in Liaodong, Tianjin Wei, and Shandong, where there are many generals. But the navy, Zhou Zheng cared very much, and most people didn't worry about it.
Shangguan Lie looked at Zhou Zheng, blinked, stretched his head, and said, "Brother-in-law, what do you think of me?"
Zhou Zheng looked at him and blinked.
Shangguan Lie was also nearly 30 years old. The reckless teenager at the beginning did not seem to have changed. It was just as reckless when he was reckless, but he was a little more mature, and he was able to do good things quite often.
Shangguan Lie looked at Zhou Zheng’s expression, coughed, and said: "Brother-in-law, look, I have been fighting north and south with you for more than ten years, and I have learned at least one or two skills... It shouldn't be difficult, right?"
The last sentence completely exposed Shangguanlie's guilty conscience.
Zhou Zheng waved his hand and said, "If you don't want to be beaten by your sister, don't open this mouth."
Shangguan Lie wasn't discouraged, and said, "The general soldier can't do it. I can't give my lieutenant my qualifications, right?"
Zhou Zheng thought for a while and said, "This is okay. I'll go back and discuss it with your sister."
Shangguan Lie had followed Zhou Zheng to fight Jianlu under the capital. He was also found in Youtun, Liaodong. The credit was recorded in the Ministry of War. It was no problem to give a deputy.
Shangguan Lie smiled suddenly and left with his plate.
Zhou Zheng finished handling the matter, and returned to the house after dark.
Shangguan Qing was only three months old, and he didn't show any signs. While letting people boil water to give Zhou Zheng a bath, he slapped the cotton-padded clothes he changed, and frowned, "You don't care about Guang Qian. I will tell my father tomorrow."
Guangqian, Shangguanlie's words.
Zhou Zheng didn't expect this kid to speak so quickly, and said with a smile: "He should be a little serious, it's okay, I will find someone to look at him."
Shangguanqing frowned, worried that the unreliable brother had ruined his husband. He was about to talk about it, and suddenly looked at the door and said, "Father."
Zhou Zheng had just changed his clothes and came out from the inside, watching Zhou Qingli standing outside the door, startled: "Father, why don't you come in?"
Zhou Qingli paused and then walked in and said, "Just to say something."
Zhou Zheng was a little curious, waited for Zhou Qingli to sit down, pour him tea, and said, "Father, what's the matter?"
Zhou Qingli took the teacup, did not drink it, and paused again before saying: "Qian Shouzhi sent someone to Tianjin Wei, let me recommend it to you."
Zhou Zheng listened and found it interesting, and sat down opposite Zhou Qingli.
Money receives it, that is, Qian Qianyi.
It’s not that his recommendation is interesting, but as Zhou Yanru once again ascends to the throne of the first assistant, Fushe’s influence in the entire Ming Dynasty is immeasurable. Qian Qianyi, the leader of Donglin, has also been strongly promoted. Rumor has it that he will rise again and serve as the minister of etiquette.
At this time, Qian Qianyi recommended Zhou Zheng to someone, fearing that there was something hidden in it.
Zhou Qingli looked at Zhou Zheng and said, "I guess I wanted you to speak for him in the court. The person he recommended was his student, named Zheng Sen, with the name Damu."
Zhou Zheng didn't take it seriously. He listened to the name, chewed it a little, and couldn't help but smiled: "Tianjin Wei's military academy has been built, so let him, a student, stay in the academy for a while, and I will observe it."
Zhou Qingli was a little weird, and said, "Didn't you like to receive money before?"
Zhou Zheng smiled and said: "I still don't like him now, but he thinks that there is no way to get up again. The Sacred Heart hates him."
Qian Qianyi’s name is broadcaster and his qualifications are solid. The reason why he has not been able to return in the Chongzhen dynasty is because the things he did deeply disgusted Chongzhen, even if the political circles changed one after another, he did not have him. Copies.
Zhou Qingli understood, got up and said, "Well, let's do it."
After Zhou Qingli finished speaking, she left on her own.
He and Qian Qianyi had some fellowship, and with the middleman, they couldn't get rid of it, so he came to Zhou Zheng to talk.
Shangguanqing watched Zhou Qingli leave, walked over, and whispered softly, "I found out that Dad is a bit old recently."
Zhou Zheng sighed softly and said, "Father is also an aspiring person."
Over the years, Zhou Qingli has been cold-eyed by the court. How many times he has come up with an official position, but finally failed to do so for various reasons. Now, even if he wants to get an official position, he can't do it anymore.
Shangguanqing pressed Zhou Zheng's shoulder, gently comforting.
Zhou Zheng patted her hand and said, "Let Shen'er and the others accompany her father more, and help me out."
Shangguan Qing nodded in response. (End of this chapter)
