Zhu Xu thought for a moment and said, "Badali has done his best in recent years, without any disrespect... Let's put the war horses in and stay in the royal garden. In the name of the palace, he purchased three thousand pieces of cloth from the chambers of commerce, but he made it into ready-made clothes. Cotton coats, pantyhose, strong wine, salt, tents and other daily necessities, with a total price of one million. I would like to give me a great reward, so that Shen Yongmao could summon all Mongolian tribes to deliver it in front of them."

Sun Chuanting immediately understood Zhu Xu's meaning and said, "Yes, I ordered the State Administration of Commerce to do it. Zhao Shujiao of the Royal Legion and Man Gui personally escorted it, and then asked Shen Yongmao to distribute it."

‘Tenderness and power are equally important’!

Zhu Xu was satisfied and said, "Well, you should discuss with the General Manager's Mansion in detail. By the way, Xuan'er will go on behalf of me this time."

Sun Chuanting had no objection and said, "Yes, the second highman shows the emperor's importance to Korqin. I think other tribes will be very envious."

Zhangjiakou has made a lot of money in trade with Mongolia over the years. Now, it is not for making money, but for the huge and complex desert-sea Mongolia to lay the foundation for some things in the future.

The monarch and minister agreed, and Sun Chuanting said again: "Your Majesty, Governor Cao has been in the General Office for some time to advise on military affairs. Should I mention it? With Governor Cao's military merits, we can go further."

Zhu Xu paused and looked up at him. There was no suspicion, but all of them were doubts.

Sun Chuanting looked calm and bowed, "This is not my idea, it is Deputy Marshal Qin who found Weichen early in the morning and revealed this meaning."

Zhu Xu looked at Sun Chuanting, slowly took the teacup, and said thoughtfully: "It should be your idea of ​​the 'Ministry of National Defense' that touched the General's Mansion. Master Sun is afraid that he will really retire."

Sun Chuanting knew that Zhu Xu and Sun Chengzong had a three-year agreement, and he slowly solved the problem: "Prince, Master Sun Ge Lao can not leave, but there can be more than one deputy marshal. The division of labor and cooperation can increase efficiency."

Zhu Xu took a sip of tea, thought for a moment, and said, "Since Deputy Marshal Qin has come to you first, I think he is guessing that this is what I mean."

In Zhu Xu's plan, he wanted to build a strong military, minimize the constraints of the civil servant group as much as possible, and make sufficient preparations for future expansion. However, under the current trend of reform, whether it is Sun Chengzong or Qin Liangyu, it seems to be not strong enough to fight against the cabinet.

Although there is Zhu Xu's reason here, it is more because of the traditional thinking of the Ming Dynasty. The military man has a low status. Suppressing the military man is a common thinking of the government and the public. The military man himself is also accustomed to self-deprecating.

In this environment, it is difficult for the General Mansion to make a comeback.

Even if Cao Wenzhao takes office in the future, he may not be as expected by Zhu Xu.

Sun Chuanting didn't know how many thoughts Zhu Xu had in his mind in an instant, and then said: "I just have some considerations about the army. It is under the general framework. The emperor has to make arbitrary decisions for the specifics."

Sun Chuanting knew where his powers and responsibilities were, and he could distinguish the boundaries and acted very well.

Zhu Xu said 'yes' and said, "I will discuss this matter carefully with Deputy Marshal Qin. Don't move first. The reform of the army is not thorough enough and it takes time."

Sun Chuanting said, "I understand. Tomorrow, I plan to hold a preliminary meeting in the parliament to finalize some matters. The most important ones are decided in the last three days. I wonder if the emperor will have time tomorrow?"

This is what Sun Chuanting came today.

Zhu Xu thought for a while and said, "I won't go to a lot of things in my hands. I will let the Sili Supervisor stare at it and send the specific draft tonight."
