Lu, the Minister of the Jinyiwei Nanfufu Department, was named Shangshu. He was not a real Shangshu. He was a small role in the court who could not interfere with the national affairs, but he was often summoned by the emperor himself, which was also the main reason why his identity was transcendent.
After Yu Qian disappeared, all the Huguang army and the three departments wrote letters, but the emperor secretly summoned Lu Jiashi to Yangzhou to meet the saint.
Everyone intentionally or unintentionally blamed the rebels' detailed work in the memorial, and Zhu Zhanji needed to confirm this news from the people of the Jinyiwei; although the Jinyiwei was not completely impossible to deceive the emperor, they were not the same as the civil servants. It would be better to listen to their statements than to rely entirely on the words of the local bureaucrats.
Lu Qianshi dressed in brocade flying fish clothes and was kneeling in the water pavilion to report: ...At that time, Huguang North Route Army and horse soldiers entered Changde, and a large army gathered in the city. In addition, Weichen only worked with Governor Yu in the afternoon of the same day. He was careless and ineffective in defending the situation. He made such an omission and deserved to be punished.Then, through a secret talk with Chenzhou Prefecture, the Weichen determined that the wife of the governor Yu also went to Chenzhou City privately; although he did not meet the governor himself, based on this, it was judged that the governor Yu should have been captured by the rebels, so his wife would arrive in Chenzhou.
Zhu Zhanji breathed a little relieved when he heard this: As a talent that the emperor valued personally, it was a pity that Yu Qian had lost so much; but fortunately it was the rebels, not the local forces, who dared to persecute the court officials, so this matter was considered light.
It was the late autumn of the second year of Xuande, and Zhu Zhanji had just ascended the throne for the third year, and the world was in full swing. If the local government developed to the point where he dared to confront the central government, it would be very worrying there.
When Zhu Zhanji heard the report from Mr. Lu, he finally turned around and said: The blame for this matter is not entirely on you, so I will not punish you. Let's go.In the past two days, I will send another minister to Huguang, and then Lu Chenshi will return with him.
Thank you for your kindness, and the empress will leave.
Mr. Lu hurriedly kowtowed with gratitude.
Although he knew in advance that this matter should not be allowed to be punished by the Jinyiwei, he felt sad when he saw the emperor, because if he was careless in front of the emperor, he would cut it with no problem. Who wouldn't?
Mr. Lu felt relieved, but he didn't understand the real reason why the emperor was so kind...
It's a big deal, and someone should be responsible.
As soon as Lu Chenshi left, British Duke Zhang Fu was announced to meet him.
Zhang Fu's three dynasties still performed the bowing ceremony and held the ceremony very respectfully when he met.
I saw him having a round face, broad face and upright body, and at his fifties, he was energetic and gaze like a torch. For a high-ranking person like him, fifty is the best age in his life. He has been tempered in all aspects and his body and energy are not bad.
He is not only a representative figure of the heroes and nobles of Jingnan, but also a soul-like commander in the Ming army. He has rich experience in war and has a high prestige in the army. He always respects the British Duke.
Moreover, this person has a very good reputation, is upright in the hearts of the officials and the emperor, and is also a perfect positive person.
During the Jingnan period, the British Duke fought in Jiahe, Gaocheng, Zhangde and Lingbi, and won the throne for Zhu Di and made great contributions and defeated hundreds of thousands of enemies. During the Yongle period, during the Northern and Southern Expeditions, there were legends that he used his troops as gods everywhere.
The Duke of England is a precious legacy left by Zhu Zhanji's emperor's grandfather. Zhu Zhanji has always relied heavily on it and retained the highest standards of honor and identity of military generals for him.
Zhu Zhanji asked Zhang Fu directly in a heart-warming tone: Something happened to Huguang Governor Yu Qian, and the British Duke thought who would send to preside over the matter on the west side?
This incident really made Zhu Zhanji difficult. The court generally had no shortage of capable talents, but it was hard to think of those who could just replace Yu Qian.
When Emperor Yongle died on the northern expedition, several ministers were secretly mourning for the overall situation and allowed the imperial power to be successfully handed over. On that day, these ministers established the political structure of the Hongxi and Xuande dynasties, including Sanyang, Jin Youzi and others. However, these people were highly powerful and were great figures who influenced the direction of the entire empire and were not suitable for appointment as governors of a province. Besides, except for Yang Rong, these people had some military strategic minds, others were not good at planning specific strategies and tactics.
Among those with lower official positions and identities, when Zhu Zhanji was interested in promoting the young and strong school, he also found several very good talents, including Yu Qian; but Zhu Zhanji felt that those young civil officials were not as good as Yu Qian, lacked experience and did not understand military affairs...
Zhu Zhanji attached great importance to the war in Huguang.
Sure enough, Zhang Fu seemed to be a little embarrassed, and he pondered for a long time before saying: The old minister is brave enough to tell me if I can tell you another two things before answering the emperor’s question?
The British Duke has been working hard for the imperial court recently, so he should not kneel on the ground and let it go.The person who comes will be given a seat.Zhu Zhanji said, "If you have anything, just tell me what you want."
Zhang Fu showed gratitude and hurriedly said: Follow the order.The first thing the old minister wants to say is the strategy of pacifying Nanjing. The old minister knows that there are some comments in the court; however, crossing the river from the lower reaches of the river has proved that it is difficult to work after several attempts. I think it is time to re-establish the strategy.There are only two ways to stop forcing the attack, one is to cross the river from the middle and upper reaches, and then advance along the waterway.Among them, the old minister thought it was feasible to transfer the army to Wuchang Prefecture...
Zhu Zhanji nodded slightly, but he was unquestionable. He had to consider not only military strategy, but also grasp the overall situation, so some things can only be decided after the time is ripe.
Zhang Fu continued: This second piece is the memorial of the Marquis of Wuyang Xue Lu. The old minister also read it after he got the emperor's approval.Although the strategy Yu Shilang decided in Huguang was a disadvantage of leaking secrets, the general direction was correct. The local commander could change slightly according to local conditions and continue to implement it... I heard that Yu Shilang had a son named Yu Mian in the capital. The old minister asked the emperor for a love affair for Yu Shilang. Although a talented official like Xiang Yu Shilang, who had a heavy responsibility for the emperor, the court could also treat him well to show his grace.
As a hero, Wuyang Hou respects Zhang Fu very much and has more people than ordinary people. Zhang Fu had heard from Wuyang Hou that Yu Qian had done something in his spare time in Huguang, about Wang Yu, the former magistrate of Shimen County.
So it is hard to say what kind of good feelings Zhang Fu has for Qian privately, but Zhang Fu will never do anything to put a deception at such a time...
First, Yu Qian was captured, at least in a short time, and no matter how good the situation was, it would be very unfavorable to his career. No matter what he did before, it would be difficult for him to be in danger in the future. It would be of little significance to deal with him at this time; second, those who have achieved the status of Duke of England attach great importance to the long-term, and he will never easily use some means that seem to be ignorant of the general reputation; finally, Duke of England does agree with Qian's military view, and he does not want to affect the overall situation for some internal holidays.
So it’s better to be a favor. If there is still a chance to meet in the future, everyone wants to meet, right? Isn’t there still Yang Shiqi in the court?
It is quite useful for the British Duke to plead with his own words.
Zhu Zhanji was also a very decisive monarch, good at simplifying complex issues. After hearing this, he expressed his opinion on the spot: The British public statement is reasonable, and Mr. Yu has made great contributions to the court.
Zhang Fu said: After the old minister said these two things, he could answer the emperor’s question just now.Although something happened to Mr. Yu, the Marquis of Wuyang can temporarily deal with the matter of Huguang; when our Beijing army is transferred to Wuchang Prefecture, the Ministry of War can directly coordinate the troops of Huguang from it... However, Huguang is in a turbulent autumn, and the court wants to retain the governor's headquarters, and the old minister recommends Mr. Hu of the Ministry of Rites to be appointed as the Ministry of War.
Hu Ying?Zhu Zhanji asked casually.
Zhang Fu bowed: If you go back to the emperor, it is him.
The job Hu Ying had done for a long time during Emperor Yongle was to investigate the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen. What military talents does this person have?
Zhu Zhanji thought for a moment and seemed to have never heard of Hu Ying being able to do this job, but the British Duke probably didn't mean to ask Hu Ying to point fingers at the soldiers.
At this time, Zhu Zhanji also understood: Although Zhang Fu had a good vision in military affairs, it was not reliable to ask him to recommend a civil servant with military talents, because the meritorious group and civil servants were not in the same way.
Zhu Zhanji went to Yangzhou to visit the front line of the war but stayed in the headquarters most of the time and did not go out, but he was very clear about the mysteriousness below.
People on both sides have made some troubles for a small magistrate Wang Yu, which has not been resolved for a long time. Among them, Zhu Zhanji is also very familiar with the enemy. But isn’t this the situation he wants?
The Ming Dynasty had two capitals, one thirteen provinces, and thousands of counties. It was too big, and it was not easy to rule. Some forces could not be monotonous.
During the reign of Emperor Yongle, Zhu Zhanji, who had not yet taken power, saw the way to cultivate eunuchs. Unfortunately, because of his limited talents and many people-knowingly, it took time to form a powerful force. Zhu Zhanji felt that he would have to wait until his son could complete the layout.
As for the current situation, he could only set up a situation like this: use military officials to check and balance civil officials; civil officials take charge of the power of national affairs, and then support a few people in the cabinet. Minister Sanyang is a capable person who can entrust national weapons and responsibilities, thus gradually forming a situation where the three powers of the cabinet ministers are divided.
How could Zhu Zhanji's idea be like this to fulfill the civil servant's intentions and use Cheng Gong to attack the sword?
However, the situation has changed and wars have occurred frequently. Because the status of the military minister is important, Zhu Zhanji must also grasp the importance of this, and he is unwilling to give the military general too much power.
He had a clear mind and quickly judged the pros and cons of major events. Huguang could not allow Wuyang Hou to control the military and political power alone...
At the moment when it is difficult to find a suitable candidate for civil officials, things are not easy to delay, and it is not bad to choose Hu Ying: the status of the six ministers is just right, and Hu Ying knows a lot about Jianwen's party. Although he was unable to cooperate with Xue Lu when he was asked to go to Huguang, he could cooperate with Lu Junshi of the Jinyiwei.
Another point is that when Emperor Yongle died on the northern expedition, Hu Ying wanted to join the circle of stable power transfer, but unfortunately he was excluded by others.
This may also be one of the reasons why Zhang Fu likes Hu Ying?
After Zhu Zhanji made a decision in his mind, he looked back and felt that the British Duke Zhang Fu was not a simple old minister.
After Yu Qian disappeared, all the Huguang army and the three departments wrote letters, but the emperor secretly summoned Lu Jiashi to Yangzhou to meet the saint.
Everyone intentionally or unintentionally blamed the rebels' detailed work in the memorial, and Zhu Zhanji needed to confirm this news from the people of the Jinyiwei; although the Jinyiwei was not completely impossible to deceive the emperor, they were not the same as the civil servants.
