Zhou Zheng's trip to Nanzhili really played a huge role. He pushed hard on the progress of the reform.
There are a lot of things in Nanzhili, and a large-scale exchange of officials is proceeding in an orderly manner.
Almost all of Zhou Zheng's more than 300 students of Enke this year settled in Nanzhili, covering every corner.
Xiangyang.
Yang Sichang is presiding over Huguang's "soldier reform". Huguang is extremely large, larger than later generations of Hunan and Hubei combined, so the intensity of the "soldier reform" is also different.
Yang Sichang is currently working with Huang Zi, the governor of Huguang, and Governor Liu Jingyi is checking the water conditions outside Xiangyang.
Huang Di smiled as Zhou Yanru's recommendation, and he was naturally his person. From the outside, Yang Sichang is Zhou Yanru's ally, so he is naturally closer.
Huang Jiyong looked at the water and said with a smile: "The Ministry of Industry has allocated 200,000 yuan to repair the river, and it has played a lot, at least this year there will be no major waterlogging."
Liu Jingyi was from Zhou Zheng, and he was born as a guerrilla general in Liaodong. Regarding Huang Zi's words, he didn't distinguish between the praise and criticism, so he didn't hear it.
Yang Sichang walked around, nodded, and said, "Brothers of the Zhou family, you shouldn't be underestimated."
Huang Jiyong quickly echoed: "The old man said that."
Liu Jingyi was worried that the two would be too much, tilted her head and coughed, showing a sense of existence.
Huang Di's expression stunned, and cautiously did not speak any more.
Yang Sichang turned his head and glanced at him, and said, "You don't need to cough, just pass back what you hear, don't worry about me."
Liu Jing raised her head and looked at the sky. If he didn't say that, he would do the same.
Yang Sichang continued walking, saying: "Zhou Zhengyun will not say anything. I am ashamed of this person's scheming and methods. At the beginning of the Ministry of War, although I first attacked him, he kicked me out of the court afterwards. My'ten-faced nets' have taken care of the Northwest, which really shocked me. His bloody tactics against Jianlu in the front, and Li Zicheng's breach of the capital in the back, how many things I don't know about?"
Huang Zi used what he had said before, but now he dare not say anything.
He is indeed covered by Zhou Yanru, but if he openly says something and gets caught by walking away, can Zhou Yanru be able to protect him
As soon as Liu Jing listened, she said lightly: "Elder Ge, don't make it difficult to be an official."
Yang Sichang didn’t seem to hear, and said, “He’s taking the lead in Chuanshangui’s military reforms. It should be to prevent me. It’s a matter of Huguang. Even if I don’t go back, he will go back than me. When I arrive in the capital, I’m afraid. It's just going to be put on the shelf."
Liu Jing's expression moved, and she understood in her heart. No wonder the capital is very wary of this person, and there is no big and small thing to grasp, this is also an extremely smart person, and I have to guard against it!
Yang Sichang continued walking, saying: "'Er Zhou' are all people with a strong desire for power. The reason why they can coexist is because Zhou Zhengyun needs a room for change. If he is the first assistant, these reforms will inevitably meet the strongest opposition. Although his father was born in Jiangxi, the two brothers were born in Beijing and had very little involvement with Jiangxi and Jiangnan officialdom. He himself was withdrawn and was not good at drawing people's hearts. Therefore, with Zhou Yanru, it would be difficult for Jiangnan officialdom to truly resist completely. In addition, he has been able to help Sheji, which has blocked too many people's mouths. I have to say that he is a wise man, knows how to make choices, and know how to advance and retreat."
Liu Jingyi stared at Yang Sichang, this one really dare to say, you know, his life is in the hands of Zheng Xibo, without Zheng Xibo nodding, he would not be able to get out of the prison or enter the cabinet.
Yang Sichang continued walking, saying: "The'two weeks' will not allow the increase of cabinet ministers. That will not only disperse their power, but also cause unnecessary fights. It is indeed good to decentralize the six departments and control the world with six departments. Chess. But, what does he think about the future? Should he be Cao Cao or Wang Mang? I don't believe he will be Zhou Gong."
Liu Jingyi's expression was solemn, Yang Sichang dared to say such things, is it true that Zheng Xibo dare not kill him
Huang Zi sweats coldly with his head. He still wants to get close to this old Yang Ge. After all, it is about the future, but now he understands that this person must not only not be close, but also have to stay away and be clean!
Yang Sichang stood in front of a dam and sighed: "Qian Qianyi has fallen to Zhou Zhengyun. Li Banghua tried his best to remain neutral. Even if I join forces with Yuanfu, I can't hold him down. You said, what should I do with myself?"
Where did Huang Zi dare to answer the conversation? These are all the great figures in the sky. Where did he turn his bill
Liu Jing couldn't help it, and said: "Old Yang, there are some things that the officials shouldn't say. But since the old Yang is so clear, the officials will talk too much. You guess the wise and can't tolerate people, go on like this, To harm others, it is better to resign me early and take care of my life."
Yang Sichang was taken aback, turned his head to look at him, and said, "I know you are Zhou Zhengyun's old ministry. You are loyal and loyal. But when it comes to the state and social affairs, you really don't have any ideas or positions?"
Together with Liu Jing: "You can't help but choose your position, and you can choose, and you are all a traitor, Mr. Yang Ge, the lower official hopes that you will not choose."
Yang Sichang thoughtfully nodded, and said: "Your words are reasonable, standpoint, and involuntary. Zhou Zhengyun will look at people. You are an individual talent."
Liu Jing leaned slightly, and said: "Zheng Xibo once said that you're trustworthy for big things, you need to be aware of small things, you have the ambition to make big things, the means never existed in ancient times, the ethics is difficult to maintain, and the situation is afraid of evasiveness. , Zheng Xibo was extremely right."
Yang Sichang raised his brows and said, "Zhou Zhengyun commented on me like that? He can be a confidant."
When Liu Jing saw this skinless and faceless, she simply stopped talking.
Yang Sichang continued to walk, but he was wondering in his heart. After he returned to Beijing, what position should he be in the court
Li Banghua's "neutrality" is almost emptied. No matter who he falls to, the result will not be good. There is a dilemma!
Zhou Zheng's ship had just arrived in Tianjin Wei, and before he had time to rest, Chu Jin came to find it.
At the shore station, Chu Jin said with a solemn expression: "My lord, the Mongolian tribes in Moxi suddenly attacked Monan Mongolia. Horqin was afraid of being implicated, and began to move. Cao, the two soldiers in Manchuria asked if they would take the opportunity. send troops."
The fighting among the Mongolian tribes has never stopped. Lin Dan Khan is the so-called Mongolian Empire Khan, but it is only in name. The Golden Family has long been worthless, and the tribes have been doing it for many years.
Zhou Zheng drank tea and said, "What's happening in Shenyang?"
Chu Jin said: "There is no news yet, so there should be no movement for the time being."
Zhou Zheng was also a little unexpected about this situation, and he kept thinking about it. If you attack Horqin now, you might really be able to destroy it and cut off Jianlu's last arm.
It also deterred Monan and Mobei, which is conducive to his future plans.
However, there are only 20,000 cavalry in his hand, and he can't face Monan and Mobei Mongolia. If they discover the truth and truth of the Ming Dynasty, they will not stop instead of smashing snakes and attracting wolves.
Zhou Zheng pondered over and over again and said: "Written a letter to Horqin Khan, I want to see him, and ask him to come in person. After returning to Beijing, I want to see Dorgon. The order is that Cao Bianjiao, Mangui, give me full momentum!"
Chu Jin took it down seriously and said, "Yes."
Zhou Zheng kept turning his mind and said, "How is Huang Taiji?"
Chu Jin hurriedly said: "The last time I sent a letter, I said that I was in a coma several times, but he woke up again."
Zhou Zheng nodded, knowing that Huang Taiji was afraid that he would not survive this summer, and said: "Send a letter to Lu Xiangsheng and order him to be on guard." (End of this chapter)
