DAY 045 The Secret War in the Capital Begins

What does it mean to cheat, what does it mean to be a teammate like a pig, and what does it mean to never go alone?

When the official from the Ministry of Rites shouted that it was our merit to educate the people, Yang Ning wanted to cry.

His son is a fool, and his subordinates are like pigs. What should I do now? Will I stand up and admit my mistakes if I don’t discipline me strictly?

He quietly looked up at Daizong Zhu Qiyu.

What Yang Ning saw was not an angry face, nor a shock, nor a doubt. He was just a calm and smiling face, as if he hadn't heard a single sentence just now, Zhu Qiyu, Daizong, didn't hear a single sentence.

No, there will be no hearing.

Of course, Zhu Qiyu heard that he had the intention of killing people in his heart. You civil officials really didn’t have any good things. I was the emperor you brought up. I am afraid that I was just a decoration or maybe you would be happy. I just wanted to do something for the people and be a good emperor.

I'm afraid that even a little good reputation is something you want to put on your face.

Daizong Zhu Qiyu asked slowly, "What do you have any other opinions? Just mention them!"

Just tell me a big deal! Yang Ning was the first to stand up: "Longsui has worked hard for the people of the world, which is a blessing for all the people. I think there are some details of this memorial that need to be modified. For example, let Wansui personally cultivate one acre of three parts of the land, but I think it can be changed to three advances and three retreats..." Yang Ning said for a long time.

To sum up, I will just say one sentence.

Long live your hard work. Just do this kind of thing. Just do it. This situation will be fine.

Yang Ning didn't know that he was originally trying to save some of the face of his subordinates just now. But Zhu Qiyu was unhappy and for nothing else, this was because he was already uncomfortable, and he would not say anything good.

Zhu Qiyu said in his heart: What does it mean to be just a good example? If you guys are talking bad about me outside, I have worked hard in vain, but I just have to pick some good people who are good at farming to help me. Can I still plow this acre of three-point land? This time, I have to be real.

Not only should it be real, but it should also open the farming paradise and invite the people to watch the ceremony.

The young emperor hated him, but there was no pure and civil officials who could control the country.

Gao Gu made a few words to support him, and Yu Qian also shouted that he would support the promotion of agriculture, and there would be nothing Yang Ning had to do. All the decisions were put on the same day, and there were two more days to be the best time for spring plowing. Some places in the south had already planted, and the north was later, but it was almost the same.

Daizong Zhu Qiyu immediately asked Eunuch Cai to read his own imperial edict.

"The clan of the cabinet is a white-named He, who is the country..." After praising hundreds of words, Eunuch Cai's tone changed: "I was given the title of the wife of Baiming He, the wife of Baiming He, the mother of Baiming He, the seventh-rank Anren of Baiming He, the mother of Baiming He, the grandmother of Baiming He, the seventh-rank Anren of Hui'an!"

"Long live the wisdom!" Takaya was the first to respond.

Yang Ning was still dizzy. When he realized that this order had been recognized by the cabinet and the other important officials of the six ministries. After the cabinet was formally written, it would be handed over to the Ministry of Rites to enter the book, and then sent it to Xi'an Prefecture by the relevant departments, and local officials would send the order to the Bai family.

Adding the family of Baiming He is just a matter of being so small that it cannot be even smaller.

In this kind of thing, there is no way to refute the emperor's face. Even when he added the title of Bai Minghe's grandmother, he added the word "Hui" to ordinary Anren, but in the eyes of these officials, this is just a little gift, just a tax reduction for ten acres of land.

The specific work was arranged soon.

The Ministry of Revenue, Ministry of Works, and Ministry of Rites have all assigned some tasks, and only two days will be spent to make comprehensive preparations for the emperor to personally farm.

After going to court, Jiang Yuan, the Minister of Works, handed over the matter to his confidants, and he ordered his servants to go home!

At the house of the Minister of Works, Bai Minghe sat in the side hall and tasted tea and dim sum. Bai Minghe also drank good tea in later generations, but the peak good tea in later generations was far less good than the tea that was used to entertain him at the house of the Minister of Works. Perhaps the house of the Minister of Works also used very good tea in the house of the Minister of Works.

Holding the teacup, Bai Minghe was thinking that it was very good for the general tea in the Ming Dynasty, but I deliberately used good tea for myself.

"What are Lord Bai thinking?" A voice came, shocking Bai Minghe.

After seeing the person coming clearly, Bai Minghe quickly stood up and saluted: "Master Jiang, the official is rude."

"Let's sit down, I call myself a uncle, because my grandfather and your grandfather were once officials in the same dynasty. At that time, your grandfather and I were kindly taught to me, Jiang Yuan. Although I had never given the ceremony of apprenticeship, I became my teacher in one day..." Jiang Yuan said nothing more.

With his identity, it is enough to say this.

Bai Minghe stood up again and gave a formal gift to his younger generation, but he still didn't know who his grandfather was?

In fact, Bai Minghe still doesn’t know what the situation of Bai’s family in the Ming Dynasty is.

In fact, the Bai family in Guanzhong is just a small part of the entire Bai family. The Bai family is in Shaanxi, Henan, Hebei, and Xiangshantang, which was famous for the descendants of Bai Juyi during the Tang Dynasty. The Bai family is considered an old family, and there are officials in Hebei, Shaanxi, and Henan branches in the early Ming Dynasty.

Among them, the one with the greatest reputation at that time was Bai Ying from Hebei.

He was not an official, but he was no less than an official. He helped the Minister of Works at that time complete the project of the Shandong section of the Grand Canal of Beijing and Hangzhou. Emperor Yongle built a temple for him and was named Caobo! However, it was said that he was not an official. It was only thirty years since then that young man from the Ministry of Works, the great man who could forget this water conservancy project.

Therefore, the Ministry of Industry supports Baiminghe’s water control, and 90% of it is because of Bai Ying.

Jiang Yuan felt somewhat moved, as if he was thinking of the feat of hundreds of thousands of people fighting for the Grand Canal when he was young. He waved his hand gently and signaled Bai Minghe to sit down.

"I'm going to tell you here, there is an important thing to tell you!"

"Uncle Jiang, please speak!" Bai Minghe immediately acted like a junior.

"In the world of Ming Dynasty, I know how many people are unwilling to leave Beijing and become officials. But this matter is a double-edged sword. They don't want to be officials. Except for a few officials in remote areas, they are mostly unpopular positions, such as the Jingzhou Jiangzhang Envoy."

Bai Minghe was a little confused when he heard this. What kind of official is this?

"From the eighth rank, its responsibility is to be responsible for the safety of the river embankment. Every month, it must be inspected at least three times within a hundred miles of its jurisdiction, and the summer flood season is once every three days. The Yangtze River has suffered a lot since ancient times, and manpower is invincible. Therefore, such an official position is hard and there is no oil or water."

Bai Minghe also nodded. Such an eighth-rank official would rather go home and sell matches.

Jiang Yuan said again: "There are not many people who can truly become the seventh-rank official in the third grade. Most of them start from the ninth grade, so this eighth grade seems to be a high-rank official, but the power in their hands is not very large, and there are only a dozen people in charge. If there is a flood, they may even lose their lives!"

"To be honest, I don't want to go either!" Bai Minghe smiled awkwardly.

Jiang Yuan nodded. He didn't mind Bai Minghe said this, but instead became a little close.

"In fact, these official positions are all empty. The real managers have received most of the salary of this official position. They are all experienced watercraft."

Bai Minghe understood: "Forcing these Jinshis will only make bad things."

"Yes, they don't know what water conservancy is. But they are serious officials, so it will make it difficult for the people below to do. What's more, although their salary is not much, most of it will be a subsidy for the watercraft on the river embankment."

The way to be an official and the way to govern.

Bai Minghe finally understood that Jiang Yuan was telling himself that he was too young and thought about the problem too simply.

Bai Minghe immediately asked: "Uncle Jiang, these people are capable and talented, why don't they let them become this Jiangzhe envoy? Why do you have to wait for the Ministry of Personnel to send someone who doesn't understand anything to come over?"

"How many candidates do you think can be an official?" Jiang Yuan asked with a smile.

Bai Minghe was really asked, but he couldn't answer this question.

"That thing is not just a matter of a few people, but the entire court. This is what Uncle Zuo wants to warn you. It is definitely not as simple as you imagined. The court is changing, and anyone may be swallowed up at any time. I admire Yu Qian and Shang Lu's behavior. But Shang Lu is too young and Yu Qian is too upright."

Bai Minghe nodded solemnly.

"I suggest you go to see someone, but others can't see them, but you may see them."

"Please give me advice!" Bai Minghe stood up and waited seriously for Jiang Yuan to give him advice.

"Kim Young!" Jiang Yuan's tone became serious: "Kim Young is neither good nor bad. He is a minister of the Central Ming Dynasty, but he is not a loyal minister who lives long live today. Those impeachments against him are mostly excuses. When you really see him, you will understand what I mean."

Bai Minghe nodded vigorously.

Jiang Yuan will not teach details anymore. As for how to meet Bai Minghe, taking that path is Bai Minghe's own ability. If even people can't see Bai Minghe, the Bai Minghe is not worth Jiang Yuan's teaching.

Just like going to Shanglu’s house, all lunches are excuses.

When Bai Minghe left Jiang Mansion, he was still a little hungry. He ate a bowl of noodles on the street before returning to his mansion. At this time, the Bai Mansion Incense Case had not been removed, and the eunuch who came to pass the order had just left.
