Up to now, the name of the cabinet is also derived from the "cabinet room". In the system, there is no saying, it is the result that everyone is accustomed to.
This result is acquiesced by everyone, because Zhu Yuanzhang abolished the prime minister and no future generations were allowed to re-establish it. Therefore, the name Shoufu also evolved from'Zaifu', and the emperors of the previous dynasties did not give the cabinet a'righting'.
Zhou Yanru felt a little excited when he heard Sun Chuanting's words. If he could be the real "Zaifu" of Ming Dynasty, wouldn't it be a major event left in history!
Zhou Yanru knew there were many pits, but couldn't help but said, "Is it really up to me to decide?"
Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "Of course."
Sun Chuanting answered, saying: "The lower officials are writing detailed articles and are also discussing with other ministries. It is estimated that the negotiation will be completed within three days. Please write to Yuanfu, please Yuanfu."
The little emperor couldn't take care of the matter. The prison was surrounded by the imprisoned army, and Li Zhong couldn't get in. Yuxi was in Zhou Zheng's hands.
Zhou Zheng is unpredictable, and Zhou Yanru is eager for power. When the two of them work together, no one can object.
Zhou Yanru could see that Zhou Zheng was'concealing evil intentions', and he fought inwardly. He said: "I want two cabinet ministers, no, two deputy prime ministers, this reform team, I also want to send people to join, Fan Wenjing, you know of."
Zhou Zheng snorted and said: "Yes."
Zhou Yanru felt a little satisfied, and then said: "Since you want to change, what do you plan to do with the Zhengxi Gallery?"
Zhou Zheng thought for a while and said, "This is because of the suppression of bandits. Once the Northwest is calmed down, it will naturally be dissolved. After the Prime Minister's compound is built, it will move to the Ministry of War."
Zhou Yanru looked at Zhou Zheng with a somewhat obscure expression, and said tentatively: "I want Li Banghua to join the pavilion."
Li Banghua is the official book of the Ministry of War. It stands to reason that it should be the Ministry of Rites or the Ministry of Civil Affairs first.
Sun Chuanting glanced at Zhou Yanru and secretly said: This old man still doesn't give up.
Zhou Zheng glanced at Zhou Yanru, pretending to be silent for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "Li Banghua has enough qualifications, I agree."
Zhou Yanru breathed a sigh of relief. He was so satisfied that he turned to Sun Chuanting and said, "If you have any trouble, just come to me directly."
Sun Chuanting bowed and said, "Yes, Xie Yuanfu."
Zhou Yanru didn't say anything, got up and left Zhengxilang.
Sun Chuanting waited for him to leave and looked at Zhou Zheng with a smile: "My lord, our Yuanfu is still so ambitious."
Zhou Zheng also smiled and said, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It would be strange if he is willing to give up like this. First, he will set up the yamen, and then gather the people to start legislation. Yuansuke is in front of him. You can be presumptuous. do."
Sun Chuanting thought the same way and said, "Yes."
Zhou Zheng sharpened his sword and Huo Huo prepared to challenge the two-hundred-year-old system of the Ming Dynasty. Lu Xiangsheng in the northwest was also constantly awakening to Tongguan.
Cao Wenzhao stood beside Lu Xiangsheng and looked at Tongguan and said, "My lord, it's almost there. The food and grass in Tongguan should be almost exhausted."
Teacher Zhao looked at the sky and said, "The heavy rain hasn't stopped. Li Zicheng's reinforcements can't come. If we flood Tongguan, or feint, we can take it down in three days at most."
Lu Xiangsheng guessed it in his heart and said: "Huguang has basically settled down, and Sichuan has stabilized. Although Li Zicheng's main force is still not available, Shaanxi will not have a big problem if he wins Tongguan."
Tongguan is known as the second most powerful pass in the world, and its strategic position in the northwest is very important. In other words, whoever controls Tongguan can control Shaanxi, and control Shaanxi, the northwest is in sight.
Cao Wenzhao said: "The 20,000 reinforcements from Xibo are on the road, and we can take down Tongguan. We can divide our troops and sweep Shaanxi, and then concentrate on the border of Sichuan and Shaanxi to find Li Zicheng, gather and wipe it out!"
Due to Zhou Zheng's deliberate indulgence and some changes, Li Zicheng was not as miserable as his defeat in history, and now he still has some strength.
Lu Xiangsheng pondered, and said: "Two-pronged, pretending to attack, and then pretending to divert water to fill the city to put pressure on them."
Zhao Shu taught: "My lord, this is a good way, so I will arrange it like this in the end!"
The Ming army moved quickly, and the army attacked, and at the same time it had to divert water to irrigate the city.
There was tension in Tongguan, already precarious and distracted, and it was even worse at this moment.
Gao Yigong, Li Guo supervised the battle, and even killed hundreds of people, which stabilized the city.
However, after half an hour, Li Guo felt dangerous and had to find a way.
Gao Yigong is a tall man, frowning at this moment, and solemnly said: "The grain and grass in the city can support at most one day, and your majesty's reinforcements are blocked by heavy rain. What should I do now
Li Guo is Li Zicheng's nephew, and he will definitely not surrender. At this moment, he has a firm expression and said: "Tongguan cannot be lost, and if you can't keep it, you must keep it!"
Gao Yigong looked at him and said, "What should I do? The official army attacked the city to bite us. Once the flood flooded the city, we couldn't leave if we wanted to."
Their situation is actually very clear, either to stay on to the last moment, or to break through.
Defeated, sent out troops and died, with no other results. Break through, but also save some strength.
There was only one result: the fall of Tongguan.
Li Guo has also been fighting for a long time, his expression has changed and changed, and he said: "If Tongguan is lost, the officers and soldiers will be able to enter Shaanxi. We have no risk to defend."
Without Tongguan, they will face the official army. Today's officers and army come from Liaodong, Shandong and other places. They are elites cultivated by Zhou Zheng for many years. With sufficient grain and grass, they are properly deployed. Army.
Facing a powerful officer and army, they did not have the courage to confront each other head-on.
"Then, what do you say?" Gao Yigong is Li Zicheng's wife and brother, but rather sensible.
Li Guo looked at his expression, thought and thought, and said: "I know what you think, break through at night?"
Gao Yigong nodded and said, "It will be too late if you don't leave."
Li Guo kept his face calm, thinking about it for a long time, and said, "If you don't take so much, you and I will walk quietly with the elite of your trusted friends."
Gao Yigong's eyes flashed with pain and said, "Okay."
The two negotiated a certain amount, and turned back to the city again, defending the city, and quietly dispatching them to withdraw their elites.
The official army was feigning attacks. Lu Xiangsheng and others were behind, staring at them with binoculars. Although they could not see through, they also noticed something wrong.
Both sides have their own plans, cautiously testing each other.
Before evening, the two sides stopped fighting.
After the cessation of the Ge, the clouds at the head of Tongguan were all sorts of clouds, and an atmosphere of war was coming, covering Tongguan.
At night, the army in Tongguan moved frequently, and an army quietly left the city under the pretext of'ambush and attack at night'.
Not long after they appeared, an officer of the Military Intelligence Department arrived at Lu Xiangsheng's account and said in a low voice: "Unexpectedly, they abandoned the city and left. The number is small, maybe only 20,000."
Lu Xiangsheng stood up fiercely and said loudly: "Assemble the generals and attack the city immediately!" (End of this chapter)
