Ming Dynasty: My Father Yongle, Forever Reigns Over Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 133: Old Jintou, I Think You Can Save Him!

Confused.

Puzzled.

Jin Zhong was stunned.

He originally thought that the King of Han wanted to seize the opportunity to seize the power of the Ministry of War.

Now that he, Zhu Gaoxu, was overseeing the affairs of the country and he suddenly fell ill, it was not a simple matter for the Prince of Han to randomly place an official from the Han Party to take charge of the affairs of the Ministry of War.

Jin Zhong took the initiative to meet with him this time for this matter.

You must know that in the thirteenth year of Hongwu, the Hu Weiyong case broke out. Emperor Taizu Gao was so angry that he "reformed the Secretariat of the Central Government", abolished the prime minister system, and promoted the six departments to the second rank of Yamen and the second rank of Shangshu!

Since then, the authority of the six ministries has been greatly increased and they are directly responsible to the emperor!

In addition, the current emperor Zhu Di was also an emperor, wars continued in the Ming Dynasty, and the power of the Ministry of War was even more intense!

Once the army falls into the hands of Han King Zhu Gaoxu, the life of Prince Zhu Gaochi will become even more difficult.

Jin Zhong, who was dedicated to "sharing your worries", took the initiative to meet with the Prince of Han, also wanting to solve this hidden danger for the Crown Prince while he still had time.

As a result, the King of Han Zhu Gaoxu was actually good, and he even asked himself to recommend talented people to take over the Ministry of War!

You are the ambitious Prince of Han!

Why are you like this now!

Is there something wrong with your brain?

Although I am puzzled, this is a great opportunity.

Jin Zhong took a deep breath and tentatively asked: "What do you think of Yang Shiqi, His Highness the King of Han?"

Zhu Gaoxu: "!!!"

yes!

And Yang Shiqi!

The last time this old Yangtou interceded for Liu Guan and others, he was thrown into prison by Zhu Laosi, and now he has not been released!

It is definitely more than enough to let Yang Shiqi temporarily take over the affairs of the Ministry of War!

Who is Yang Shiqi?

The famous "West Yang", the first of the "Three Yangs"!

Sanyang is Yang Rong, Yang Pu, and Yang Shiqi. All three of them served in the Yongle, Hongxi, Xuande, and Zhengtong dynasties, and successively became important ministers in the cabinet.

During their tenure as assistant ministers, they stabilized border defenses, rectified official administration, and developed the economy, so that the national power of the Ming Dynasty continued to develop along its peak track.

And it is precisely because of your outstanding political achievements that the status of the cabinet ministers of the Ming Dynasty has been unprecedentedly improved. They were transformed from the emperor's clerks into assistant ministers with the nature of prime ministers. Therefore, they are regarded as famous ministers by historians.

Jiao Hong, a famous scholar in the Ming Dynasty, commented: "Western Yang (Yang Shiqi) has talent, Dongyang (Yang Rong) has career, and Nanyang (Yang Pu) has degree. Therefore, when it comes to the virtuous ministers of our court, they must be called Sanyang! "

If these three sages hadn't died too early, Zhu Zhanji's bastard son might not have become the "God of War of the Ming Dynasty" and would not have been able to do things like lose power and humiliate the country.

Now Yang Shiqi and Yang Pu are still squatting in prison, and only Yang Rong is left to support independently in the cabinet.

They are all talents!

This is not possible!

Those are Xiyang and Nanyang. Letting them continue to sit in jail is a bit overkill.

As for Xie Jin, the most talented man in the Ming Dynasty, it would be a good choice to send him to compile the Yongle Canon, or to teach in the Imperial College.

Zhu Gaoxu was thinking when he heard Jin Zhong say slowly: "Yang Shiqi is very thoughtful. He entered the Imperial Academy as a commoner and has insightful opinions on matters. The emperor attaches great importance to his talent."

"In addition, Yang Shiqi also served in the Ministry of War before and is very familiar with the Ministry of War, so I boldly recommend this person to His Highness the King of Han to temporarily handle the affairs of the Ministry of War!"

After all, on the issue of establishing a direct heir, Yang Shiqi has always tried to protect the crown prince Zhu Gaochi, which is consistent with his own ideas.

The three talents who are now imprisoned innocently, Yang Shiqi, Xie Jin, and Yang Pu, are all princelings who strongly support Zhu Gaochi.

However, Xie Jin was proud of his talents and high-profile. He impeached Zhu Gaoxu many times, which made Zhu Gaoxu resentful. He was arrested and imprisoned in the ninth year of Yongle.

But Yang Shiqi was different. He was too smart, kept secrets, neither hot nor cold, and no one could see his true thoughts.

Comparing the two, Jin Zhong naturally admires Yang Shiqi more.

As for Yang Pu, he was too cautious. Sometimes he would always lower his head and walk along the wall even when he went to court.

If you are too cautious, you will lose the courage and courage to make temporary decisions.

Therefore, Jin Zhong chose to recommend Yang Shiqi among the three princelings, trying to reinstate him to his post and temporarily take over the affairs of the Ministry of War.

Under his expectant gaze, Zhu Gaoxu nodded directly.

"Okay, I will go to the prison later and take Yang Shiqi out!"

After hearing this, Jin Zhong was overjoyed and asked in disbelief: "Is what His Highness the King of Han said true?"

Zhu Gaoxu was helpless when he heard this, and explained with a wry smile: "Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong, and Yang Pu are all geniuses in the world, but they are still young and lack some training."

"Let Yang Shiqi go to the Ministry of War, and Yang Pu go to the Ministry of Rites to practice for a few years, and join the cabinet to participate in machine maintenance. What does Lao Jintou think?"

Jin Zhong: “!!!”

Numb!

Completely numb!

His Royal Highness, the King of Han, really has something wrong with his mind!

Not only did he agree to his proposal, he also wanted to get Yang Pu out of prison!

what is this?

Buy one get one free?

Thinking about it, Jin Zhong nodded hurriedly and reminded with some embarrassment: "Ahem, Your Highness the King of Han, Xie Jin is a man of great talent."

"This son has been arrested and sent to prison and tortured to the extreme for two years. If His Highness, the King of Han, doesn't do it smoothly..."

"Old Jintou, that's a little too much!"

Zhu Gaoxu looked at him with a half-smile but refused directly.

Are you kidding me?

The person Xie Jin offended was not him, the King of Han, but Emperor Yongle!

The greatest talent of the Ming Dynasty was sent to prison by Zhu Laosi himself!

As soon as Zhu Laosi walked away with his front legs, he went to fish out Jie Jin with his back legs. What would Zhu Laosi think then?

How come you have been allowed to supervise the country for a few days, and then you become so arrogant that you dare to dismantle me?

Jin Zhong smiled coquettishly when he heard the words, but he wisely did not continue to speak.

Although the emperor personally ordered Jie Jin and Yang Shiqi to be imprisoned, the reasons why they were imprisoned were completely different.

Yang Shiqi was imprisoned because he was involved in the corruption case of Liu Guan and other imperial censors. He did not want the King of Han to expand the scope of his attack, causing turmoil in the court. As a result, he ran into the angry muzzle of the emperor, and was imprisoned innocently.

However, Xie Jin was different. He was proud of his talents, acted unruly, and repeatedly violated Yan Zhijian. The emperor had long been dissatisfied with him.

It was just because Xie Jin was so famous and famous among scholars in both the government and the public that the emperor did not kill him.

"Okay, Old Jintou, you can rest in peace, I'll go to prison to get people!"

"By the way, your disease is difficult to cure, but it is not incurable. I think you can save it."

Jin Zhong was stunned when he heard this and was immediately stunned on the spot.

What?

I'm terminally ill...can I still cure it?

Is it possible that His Highness the King of Han also knows medical skills?

Zhu Gaoxu carefully observed Jin Zhong's condition and had a rough guess in his mind.

Anyway, this old golden head is already like this, so there is nothing wrong with trying those methods.

"I will write a prescription later. You just need to take the medicine on time and rest."

"You're not far away from death anyway, so let's treat the dead horse as a living horse doctor!"

Jin Zhong: “???”
