Chapter 1020 Jinyiwei

Tian Renqing was a little hesitant, but he was still trapped by Ma Xianglin and his wife.

Zhang Fengyi looked quite happy and said, "It's the unmasked person. It's really good. She should have practiced it, but her figure doesn't look like a person from the capital, but she looks very similar to a woman from Jiangnan. She has a charming look between her eyebrows..."

The two women had disappeared. Ma Xianglin glanced at the disappearing place and said, "Well, I think so, let's go back and find someone to ask for it. Such outstanding ladies should not be difficult to find."

Tian Renqing was embarrassed and was stunned when he heard this and said, "Don't you go shopping?"

Zhang Fengyi laughed and said, "What else is more important than getting married? Let's go and ask for help first. If you can't find out, please ask someone to help."

Ma Xianglin nodded and said, "Let's go, if there is no lady in marriage, maybe Zijie, you still have a chance."

Although Tian Renqing was shy, his heart was pounding. He had the feelings of a scholar and the decisiveness of the army. He immediately said: "Okay, let's try your luck. That, let's first agree. If that lady is married, we can't make a statement, which will ruin their reputation..."

Ma Xianglin and Zhang Fengyi looked at each other and were all intent. Obviously, Tian Renqing was really concerned and had thought about it before he could do anything.

The three of them were dispatched soon. Perhaps the two ladies were too outstanding, or the three of them were lucky enough to be found out by them.

In a small teahouse, Ma Xianglin thought, "The woman's name is Su Xi, she is from Jinling. She is said to have come with her lady. She is now in the cloth business, so she can't find out the others and doesn't know how the marriage is."

Zhang Fengyi said: "Well, that lady is quite mysterious. She has been covering her face. She only knows that her surname is Liu. Apart from the weaving yard, she often goes to the Zhengyuan. She knows nothing else. Husband, do you think we should go to the Zhengyuan to inquire?"

"No, no, no, no..." Tian Renqing hurriedly said: "Since they often go to that yard, I can just wait there. Then I will go and ask myself. If I get married, I will give up and go directly to Liaodong..."

Ma Xianglin looked at him and looked at him, "You really dare to ask?"

Tian Renqing was about to open his mouth suddenly, but suddenly froze again, then he patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I definitely dare."

Zhang Fengyi smiled without saying a word, Ma Xianglin said, "Then let's say that. If there is any problem, tell us and we will find a way."

Tian Renqing nodded repeatedly and almost said, "You guys, hurry up and let me go below."

Ma Xianglin and his wife were in tune with each other and didn't care. After walking for a while, they turned back to the palace, but Tian Renqing was still strolling around the yard, hoping to meet again.

Imperial Palace, Imperial Garden.

Zhu Xu and Qin Liangyu walked one after another, and Zhu Xu asked with a smile, "Does the old general really have no idea about 'military reform'?"

Qin Liangyu followed Zhu Xu, vaguely higher. Listening to Zhu Xu's words, she leaned forward a little and said, "The superiors and the inferiors are the duty of the ministers. It is also the responsibility of the ministers to support gains and losses. Although the 'military reform' has set up a large enough framework, in my opinion, the important thing lies in the details. Therefore, I believe that 'military reform' needs to be solved and improved in actual actions, rather than being determined first and then acted."

Zhu Xu narrowed his eyes slightly. What Qin Liangyu said was not without reason. The "military reform" matter was indeed a bit behind closed doors. Such a large-scale action did not accumulate experience first and forced to push it rashly may not meet the expectations he wanted.

"I'm really anxious about this matter."

Zhu Xu raised his hands and walked slowly, saying with a heart-to-heart: "The Imperial Heaven Supervision said that the disaster in the next few years will be even worse. The world will be like water and fire, and the people will live in misery. I hope to strengthen the army, suppress all threats and ensure the stability of the country, and at the same time I also want to save some expenses to provide relief to the victims. In recent years, I have been stuck with too many things and cannot make any moves, so I often be eager to succeed in doing things this time. This is the same. It is not that I don’t want to deal with it slowly, orderly and properly, but that time does not wait for others. God, I don’t give me a chance to take a breath..."

Qin Liangyu didn't say much. Although he was far away in Sichuan, she still knew a lot about what happened in the capital. She knew what His Majesty the Emperor had done after ascending the throne. To be fair, for him, he had done well enough.

Zhu Xu walked to a pavilion and greeted Qin Liangyu to sit down, saying, "This matter really needs to be handled safely. At that time, I will inform Master Sun and test it first. From easy to difficult, I will tell me about the specific situation of Shaanxi, Sichuan and other places."

Qin Liangyu sat opposite Zhu Xu, keeping his duty tightly, bowed and said, "Return to the emperor, Shaanxi, Sichuan and other places, the disaster situation became more and more severe, and the land was thousands of miles away, and starving people were everywhere. Although the court vigorously provided disaster relief, the number of people starved to death still doubled every day. Although there were no more chieftains to siege Guiyang or Chengdu, the sporadic chaos in various places was getting fiercer. The governors of various places were poor to deal with it, and the daily losses were not possible. I discussed with the governors and governors many times. It would definitely not work if this continued, but I could not find any other way. I could only hope that the court's immigration strategies would be strengthened, or that the disaster would pass as soon as possible..."

Zhu Xu held the teacup and didn't say anything.

A few years ago, the governor of Guizhou, Wang Sanshan, had a strict understanding of him that the disaster in Guizhou was extremely serious, nine out of ten families were empty, and people were all fed together. The miserable situation was beyond words.

Putting down the teacup, Zhu Xu was silent for a while and said, "In the past few years, Liaodong has received more than 6 million victims, but it is no longer able to continue receiving them. It takes two to three years to digest. Although the fields in Bei'an are mature, they still need to be reclaimed again, and the number of things that can be accepted in one or two years is limited. In addition, natural disasters are getting heavier, treasury taxes are greatly reduced, and disaster relief efforts will be weakened. In the next two or three years, my Ming Dynasty will be difficult... I have tried my best to eliminate bad policies over the years, so man-made disasters are easy to resolve, and natural disasters are resisted..."

Qin Liangyu looked at Zhu Xu's worried face and said, "The emperor's kindness is visible to all people. Natural disasters are ahead and manpower is behind. But I want to have a clear conscience, success or failure, and not disturb my heart."

Zhu Xu listened to Qin Liangyu's comfort, smiled and shook his head, and said, "How many people in this world can have a clear conscience? The veteran general is in charge of the six provinces. I still need to worry about me. Let others be there. I will be in a great sense. If I can pass through it safely, I will take the veteran general into the capital and spend my old age in peace, so as not to bother with national affairs again..."

Qin Liangyu's expression moved slightly and leaned over and said, "Share the worries of the emperor and the country to establish the border. I have no other requests for help."

Zhu Xu looked at Qin Liangyu and nodded slightly. There were very few people with such a broad mind in the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Xu and Qin Liangyu chatted for more than half an hour, from military affairs and government affairs in Shaanxi and Gansu provinces to some major military and national affairs, including Zhu Xu's ideas about the future, all of them revealed to Qin Liangyu in advance.

Qin Liangyu was quite shocked to some of Zhu Xu's thoughts, and was even more respectful, and hesitant to support him. He was absolutely unlucky.

When Zhu Xu returned to the Ganqing Palace, he was already waiting alone.

He was wearing purple clothes, which was very similar to brocade clothes, but his ranking was much lower. When he saw Zhu Xu coming in, he quickly pushed away his hat and knelt on one knee and said, "Mr. Jiang Feijun, see the emperor!"

Zhu Xu waved his hand and said, "What's the news?"

Jiang Feijun, whose courtesy name is Han Jiang, was the supervisory envoy under the command of the Jinyiwei, known as one of the eight imperial envoys. These eight ambassadors were all Zhu Xu's people. The main tasks were not only to monitor the entire intelligence system, but also to balance Luo Yangxing and Zhu Zonghan, so as not to lose his head.

The Jinyiwei's ability is too terrible and must be controlled. Before another intelligence agency matures, Zhu Xu must ensure that the Jinyiwei is firmly in his hands through internal supervision.

Jiang Feijun bowed and said, "Back to the emperor, the Jinyiwei has roughly explored the situation of Qingchahar. They are tight inside and loose outside, and have not formulated specific response strategies. They may want to take action later."

Zhu Xu also expected it, took a brief message and said, "Continue."

Jiang Feijun looked up at Zhu Xu, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Mr. Luo has recently built houses in many places, which cost a lot."

Zhu Xu paused, his eyes turned cold, and he turned to look at him, saying, "What else is there?"

Jiang Feijun lowered his head and said after a moment: "Mr. Luo should have been in Kunming, but since last year, he quietly went to Qinhuai River several times. I suspect that Mr. Luo may be fascinated by a famous prostitute."

Zhu Xu looked at him and said with a calm expression: "Is there anything else?"

Jiang Feijun understood Zhu Xu's meaning and immediately said, "I have retrieved some records and conducted some secret investigations. I did not find that Lord Luo has committed treason or disobedient acts."

Zhu Xu nodded slightly, his eyes flashed, Jinyiwei...
