Chapter 960: A bowl of water and the level of the moon
oh?
Zhu Youlang was happy when he heard this.
The old saying goes well, it’s not a family, and it’s not a family.
This sentence is naturally not a problem when it comes to ordinary people, and it also applies to the royal family.
However, when it comes to the royal family, it is not limited to the father and son of the Tian family. Instead, it covers the relationship between the monarch and the minister.
The reason why Zhang Huangyan was able to think of him with Zhu Youlang is enough to prove that there is a special tacit understanding between the monarch and his subjects.
"Since that's the case, Mr. Zhang should also know that the suppression of the Japanese is of great importance. If the Japanese pirates cannot be completely wiped out, the Japanese pirates will be like the burned weeds on the grassland, burning them out in one fire, and then they will suddenly appear."
Although Zhu Youlang is speaking plainly, he did not reduce his tall image in Zhang Huangyan's mind at all.
Zhang Huangyan nodded and said, "What Your Majesty said is very true. Suppressing the Japanese must be thoroughly thorough. Only by plowing the courtyard and sweeping the cave can one go all out."
"Since that's the case, can anyone recommend Mr. Zhang?"
Zhu Youlang summoned Zhang Huangyan not to listen to these slander words, but to hope to get useful information from Zhang Huangyan as much as possible.
Of course, Zhu Youlang has his own set of ideas and decision-making methods, but he also hopes that Zhang Huangyan can participate.
"Your Majesty, the old minister recommends three people. Zheng Jing, He Shouyi, and Yu Qi."
Zhang Huangyan opened his mouth, and it was Zhu Youlang's turn to be surprised.
Of course these three are suitable candidates, but if you recommend three, isn’t it equivalent to not recommending anything?
When did Zhang Huangyan become such a smooth and good-looking person?
"Your Majesty, I recommend the three people in hopes that they can be responsible for their respective areas and eliminate the Japanese attacks in their respective areas."
"oh?"
Zhu Youlang felt it was interesting and signaled Zhang Huangyan to continue talking.
"Your Majesty, Yu Qi is from Shandong. He grew up in Shandong. He is very clear about the situation on the coast of Denglai. So I think he can be responsible for the Japanese suppression of Tianjin and Shandong in the capital."
After saying this, Zhang Huangyan took a breath and took a rest for a while, and then continued: "As for He Shouyi, he is from Zhejiang. He had been in Siming Mountain for many years and was very familiar with the situation along the coast of Zhejiang. Therefore, I suggest that He Shouyi be the general of the Japanese suppression in Zhejiang and the southern Zhili area."
After saying this, there is only one left.
In fact, it doesn’t take Zhang Huangyan to say that Zhu Youlang also knows who this person is.
"Your Majesty, Zheng Jing, the prince of King Zhong, was born in Fujian and followed King Zhong to fight against the Qing army for many years. It can be said that he learned a lot from the knowledge and learned a lot. Therefore, I suggest that Zheng Jing leads the army to be responsible for the suppression of Japanese in Fujian and Guangdong for a generation."
After saying this, Zhu Youlang understood.
Zhang Huangyan wants to give him a bowl of water.
The three of them are each responsible for a defense zone, and no one interferes with each other, and no one can offend anyone.
It's amazing.
The most important thing is that this is the most reasonable model for the court, which can minimize the risks. After all, if one general gets hot and causes local losses, the other two generals still have room for maneuver.
"Well, what Mr. Zhang said is just in line with my wishes."
I have to say that Zhang Huangyan is indeed a roundworm in Zhu Youlang's belly.
Many things that Zhu Youlang dared not think or say were very simple after Zhang Huangyan said this.
Sometimes it’s just a thin layer of window paper, and if you don’t break it, it will look cloudy and foggy.
But if you break it and find out, there is nothing.
"but"
"What are your Majesty still worried about?"
Seeing that Zhu Youlang looked embarrassed, Zhang Huangyan asked from the side because he thought of some difficult problem.
"What I am thinking about is whether it would be inconsistent with etiquette if Prince Zhong was appointed to Fujian to pacify the Japanese. After all, he is now an official of the Ministry of Rites."
Zhang Huangyan thought it was something, but when he saw the emperor worried about this, he smiled and said, "What's wrong with this? During the Chongzhen Dynasty, the generals were all civil servants, and only those generals were military generals."
Zhu Youlang thought about it carefully and seemed that this was indeed the case.
But since three people were sent to fight against the Japanese at the same time, the title and grade must be determined, otherwise others would probably have ideas.
These are all trivial matters. Zhu Youlang only needs to explain and there will be people below to do it.
Next, Zhu Youlang suddenly spoke, which scared Zhang Huangyan.
"I want to go to the south to take a look."
ah!
Zhang Huangyan was really scared.
Judging from His Majesty the Emperor, I want to lead the army in person.
It is not impossible for the imperial guards to personally fight at this time, but it means that the court has to draw a group of imperial guards to protect the emperor's safety.
Of course, there are ready-made imperial guards now, and both the Hu Ben Army and the Jinyiwei can do this task.
It is not impossible to take action at the same time.
But this means that the prince must stay in the capital and supervise the country.
"If Your Majesty wants to go south and personally, it is impossible, but His Royal Highness is afraid he will be the governor."
Zhang Huangyan and Zhu Youlang are all talking, and there are not so many taboos.
To put it bluntly, he just made it clear and let the emperor weigh the pros and cons.
After all, in recent years, the prince has been supervising the country. While his ability has improved, his prestige has also increased dramatically.
For the emperor, the most feared threat often comes not from the powerful ministers, but from their own flesh and blood.
After all, the princes have the natural law of inheriting the throne, and once replaced it, no one can say anything.
Otherwise, Emperor Yongle Zhu Di was in trouble, so why did he sit so steadily after his success?
To put it bluntly, as long as the Zhu family is in this country, the ministers will have nothing to object to.
So will the son be suspicious of the prince today?
Zhang Huangyan was not sure.
"It is a good thing for the Ming Dynasty to deal with government affairs more than one."
Zhu Youlang pointed straight without any hesitation.
"I will often ask the prince to tell him to decide on state affairs. Mr. Zhang doesn't have to worry about this."
Zhu Youlang said this because he was very confident in himself.
Although the prince's prestige is now high, it is still a thousand miles away from Zhu Youlang.
Zhu Youlang is the lord of the revival like Emperor Guangwu of Han, Liu Xiu. How could he be compared to a mere prince?
It can be said that as long as Zhu Youlang is willing, his throne can be as firm as Mount Tai, and no one can threaten him.
Zhang Huangyan felt very comfortable when he heard this.
It is a blessing for the Emperor to think so.
The prince took this opportunity to gain reputation and improve his abilities, and there would be no obstacles to succession in the future.
Zhang Huangyan suddenly felt that it was so happy that he could live in such a dynasty with kind father, filial son, friendly brothers, respectful brothers, and harmonious monarch and ministers.
What reason does he have to not govern the Ming Dynasty for His Majesty?
