Chapter 576: This position needs to be grabbed!


"I heard from the gentlemen that Nanjing is so important." Zhu Zaiji sighed, as if it was the first time he really knew the importance of Nanjing.

Xu Jie, Li Chunfang, Yuan Wei, Yan Ne and others all felt relieved as they looked at Zhu Zaizhi's expression of emotion.

It seems like this level has passed.

But soon, Zhu Zaiji let them know what surprise is!

Zhu Zaiji continued: "The Ming Dynasty's two capitals are 13 provinces, 7 north and six south. Now, with the help of the Northern Construction Bank, the seven provinces in the north have gradually gained a new look."

"In addition, the capital is also in the north. Although Gu has never traveled to Beijing to tour, he is in the north and has a deep understanding of the matters in the north. Now, the gentlemen talk about the importance of Nanjing."

"I thought that since Nanjing is such an important place, the court should devote more efforts to strengthen Nanjing's important position as one of the Ming Dynasty's two capitals, as well as Nanjing's influence and control over the Jiangnan region and the six southern provinces."

Xu Jie and others heard Zhu Zaiji's words, and at this moment he felt that Zhu Zaiji suddenly mentioned Nanjing this time, and it was not as simple as asking. He must have had a new idea about Nanjing.

But Nanjing is different from other places. Nanjing is the core of the south and an important political culture in Jiangnan.

If you want to do something there, not to mention whether it can be accomplished or not, just talking about the impact, it may attract the attention and attention of all parties.

Then so many eyes, suggestions and criticisms will be gathered in Nanjing. What if something goes wrong?

You should know that although Jiangnan is a little disobedient, it has always been an important tax place for the court since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

If there is chaos, the court cannot receive taxes from Jiangnan on time, and the food transported to the capital through the canal by Nanjing, wouldn’t the world be in turmoil?

So, whether it is Xu Jie or others, they are extremely cautious about the matter in Nanjing.

Zhu Zaiji looked at their changing expressions at the moment and smiled slightly in his heart. These wise men are indeed extremely smart. They have laid the foundation for this, but they still haven't taken them around.

But at this time, Zhu Zaiji must not give up halfway.

He knew very well that if the problem in Nanjing was not solved at his stage, he would really wait ten or twenty years later, if he really could not continue to have influence in the Ming Dynasty.

Zhang Juzheng, Feng Bao and Hai Rui alone want to accomplish things, and it is likely that the history of finally having new changes will be brought back to its original trajectory.

If this is the case, then even if Zhu Zai Di dies, he will be unwilling.

So, since all of them have come to this point, Zhu Zaiji simply spread it out.

Zhu Zaiyu said: "Nanjing is no less important than the capital. Nanjing is in the most prosperous Jiangnan region in the world. If the imperial court cannot effectively regulate it."

"Once one day of disaster in the future, Nanjing and Jiangnan land think that they are outside the land and are not in danger. The imperial court is unable to restrain it and make it contribute its due strength, then the southern government will not be able to restrain it. Beijing, Jiangnan region and the six southern provinces may be nothing for the Ming Dynasty."

"So, when Gu talked to you today about Nanjing, he was also prepared for danger in times of peace. He wanted to provide a more powerful guarantee for the court and the future, so that Nanjing could play a role in the capital that was worthy of the capital."

Xu Jie, Li Chunfang, Yuan Wei, and Yan Ne were also shocked when they heard that Zhu Zaiji had such a plan.

You should know that since Emperor Xuanzong, Emperor Ming emperors of all dynasties have never really understood Nanjing, and it can be said that they have never been to Nanjing.

Of course, if you really say that you have never been there, it is not rigorous.

Forty or fifty years ago, when Emperor Wuzong was still in power, he once ruled Nanjing once in order to personally quell the rebellion of King Ning.

But that time, Emperor Wuzong also went to a lonely place.

Because when he was halfway through the road, Wang Yangming had already put down the Ning King Rebellion.

Although Emperor Wuzong was furious and asked Wang Yangming to release King Ning, he would arrest him again.

But how can we play like this in military and national affairs?

So, even if Emperor Wuzong wanted to make a fuss and have fun, it would not affect the end of the Ning King Rebellion.

The bored Emperor Wuzong held a ceremony to worship ancestors and heaven in Nanjing, and returned home.

It was precisely because of his trip south that he fell into the river with unlucky luck, choked on the water, and almost drowned, causing serious problems in his body. In the end, he died in less than a year.

Zhu Houcong, who was still the Prince of Xiaoyao in Anlu, came to the capital to ascend the throne to Emperor Jiajing.

So considering the incongruous and unparalleled trip to the south, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty did not really lead Nanjing again, contributing to Nanjing's development and construction.

Now a prince who has never been to Nanjing is now "pointing fingers" at Nanjing, which really makes it difficult for Xu Jie and others to understand.

Xu Jie quickly stood up and bowed: "The prince's words are very good, but the weight of Nanjing should not be easily changed. If you accidentally make mistakes, it will affect the future tax collection of the court and the court's constraints on the Jiangnan region and the six southern provinces."

"So I suggest that the prince suspend the Nanjing discussion. After I collect enough reports from Nanjing and Jiangnan region for the prince, as well as the local customs and customs, I can discuss the affairs of Nanjing with all officials."

Xu Jie's words seem to make sense.

But if you really believe this, it would be like giving up the control of Nanjing.

You must know that the reason why important things that have been accomplished in history can be achieved is to put it bluntly, more than 90% of them are achieved through small-scale decisions of one person or several people.

If you really postpone this matter and collect information for a period of time with great fanfare, and then convene officials and others to discuss it, there is a high probability that there will be no result in the negotiation.

Because the more people, the more opinions there will be. The more opinions there will be, the more opinions there will be.

In such a messy situation, I still want to stick to my own opinions and get things done. Not to mention whether I can make the final decision, but it will not be successful in terms of the resistance at that time and afterwards.

So, Zhu Zaiyu waved his hand and said, "Her Xu said that he was a good plan for the country, but how do you know that Gu is not very familiar with Nanjing and Jiangnan? Gu not only knows the famous places and historical sites in Nanjing and Jiangnan, but also knows some legendary and elegant people, and also knows how the people in Nanjing and Jiangnan regions live."

"For Gu, although the governance of the world is a heavy burden of fear, it is also an important responsibility that Gu has to take action on his own. Otherwise, how can he serve His Majesty's part of the world. Trust? "

" Gu already had a general idea about Nanjing. Today I summoned all gentlemen over here, but in fact I wanted to check for omissions and fill in the gaps with you, and add this idea of ​​orphans to reality. "

" And this is also the responsibility of Gu to Nanjing, Jiangnan, and the billions of people in the six southern provinces. I hope you can understand orphans, help them, to Nanjing, Jiangnan, and the six southern provinces, and to open a new chapter for the Ming Dynasty! "

Zhu Zai Di explained everything to this point. Xu Jie, Li Chunfang, Yuan Wei, Yan Ne and others naturally could not object without listening to Zhu Zai Di's ideas.

And, the four of them are not a solid piece of iron for advancing and retreating together. Sometimes they can advance and retreat together and jointly maintain the authority of the cabinet.

But, as long as some things are spread out, their minds will become complicated.

In this complicated mind, in addition to instinctive resistance and opposition, we are more thinking about how to gain more benefits from these new things and new problems, or how to clear oneself up.

So, this is the complexity of human hearts.

Although there are many things that come together, there are not many things.

And there are all kinds of ideas and ideas in this small number of unity, and they will not be really uniform.

Otherwise, how can we compare the final one?

Li Chunfang first reacted that his identity and situation were different from Xu Jie, Yuan Wei, and Yan Ne.

Although Yuan Wei and Yan Ne also relied on their first-hand poems to gain the appreciation of Emperor Jiajing and were promoted to the cabinet.

But from the perspective of identity, Li Chunfang is also considered a member of the Yuwang Sect with a strong root.

The most new ⊥小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小

And now that Zhu Zaiji has pushed his words away, if he can't pay it back, he will enter the cabinet after Gao Gong becomes a regular as the Minister of Rites.

When the time comes, let alone the position of chief assistant who succeeds Xu Jie, it is different whether he can sit down the second assistant under his butt.

So Li Chunfang immediately took the lead and said, "What the prince said is so! I also think that Nanjing should have changed a little."

Hearing Li Chunfang's words, Xu Jie was slightly stunned, and Yuan Wei and Yan Ne also immediately followed and bowed, "I am the same."

Zhu Zai Di smiled slightly and looked at Xu Jie again, "What do you think Ge Ge?"

Xu Jie looked up at Zhu Zai Di, and at this moment he had to sigh and lower his head.

Although he is the prime minister, if the other cabinet members in the cabinet have unified their opinions, he will be unable to interfere any more.

If the intervention is not achieved in the end, it will not only damage one's own authority and status, but will even affect the emperor's view of himself, believing that he cannot control all officials.

If this is the case, it will be more serious than being directly dismissed by the emperor.

After all, when people reach this point, face is sometimes more important than face.

So, in order not to affect his status or his authority as the chief minister of the cabinet, Xu Jie also said, "The old minister also feels so."

Zhu Zaiyu smiled, "Since you guys and Gu's opinions are consistent, then Gu will express his ideas first, and gentlemen will listen first."

After hearing this, Xu Jie and others also made a respectful listening.

Zhu Zaiji picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip. The tea was no longer hot at this time, and the temperature was just right, and it was very sweet and easy to taste.

Zhu Zaiji was in a good mood and put the teacup on the table table, then cleared his throat and said, "I thought that Nanjing, as one of the two capitals of the Ming Dynasty, seemed accurate, but it was actually vague."

"As the six ministries of Nanjing and other government offices that were equivalent to the capital, they almost all acted in their own way. It was not like the capital with the cabinet headed by His Majesty's Holy Sir."

"Although this could not affect the overall situation in Nanjing, the Nanjing Garrison Office did not fulfill its real responsibility. When the Japanese pirates were rampant, Nanjing, as an important place of one of the two capitals, not only did not play a key role, but also allowed fifty-three Japanese pirates to swagger under the city of Nanjing, but Nanjing had no solution to this."

"If it weren't for the lone pleading with Your Majesty, the officials of Nanjing and the head of the Nanjing Garrison Office would not be able to explain to the world if they didn't kill a few!"

"Now, the Japanese pirates' trouble has temporarily eliminated the threat from land. So I also felt that it was time to deal with the problem of Nanjing. Otherwise, if fifty-three Japanese pirates rushed to the city of Nanjing again, the orphans who were the prince of the surveillance should be punished and apologized."

Zhu Zai's words were very serious.

Su Jie and others were also scared.

If Zhu Zaiji wants to commit suicide and apologize, then wouldn’t they all have to lingchi?

Therefore, Xu Jie and others immediately bowed to the ground, "It was me who was incompetent, which made such a thing happen in Nanjing, which made Your Majesty and the Prince look ashamed."

Zhu Zaiyu waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, get up first. If you really want to be punished for this matter, you should ask at that time. Now I will talk to you about this matter to make you understand the principle of making up for the lost sheep and not too late."

Xu Jie and others bowed again, "The prince is wise, and I will definitely understand the principle of making up for the lost sheep and not too late."

Zhu Zaiyu nodded, "The ancients said: 'Be prepared for danger in times of peace and peace."

Zhu Zaiyu said, "The ancients said: 'Be prepared for danger in times of peace." ’, this is what I mean. Now that the Southeast is turning danger into safety, Nanjing has returned to its former leisure, but Gu Jing cannot let this atmosphere continue, and the officials in Nanjing and the officials in Jiangnan did not learn lessons. "

"So, Gu must put some pressure on them and give them a little change. Gu thought so, Gu set up a governor of Zhili in Nanjing alone in Nanjing and gave him the title of Grand Secretary of the Cabinet. As the highest person in charge of Nanjing and Jiangnan, just like the cabinet in the capital that restricted the six officials."

"Let these Nanjing officials think clearly whether they plan to continue living in Nanjing for retirement, or to make good use of their remaining energy to protect Nanjing and the six southern provinces for the court."

When Xu Jie and others heard this, they were shocked and their minds became lively.

If you really want to set up a position as governor of Nanzhili in Nanjing and have him be given the title of Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, it would be like God.

A position like this must be fought for one or two! Even if you don’t go, you should recommend an ally to go!

In this way, I not only have the influence of the capital, but also the direction of Nanjing will have corresponding influence.

With such influence, even if he is not the prime minister, he is better than the prime minister.

So, this position must be fought for and no one can make others cheaper.

Xu Jie, Li Chunfang, Yuan Wei, Yan Ne and others couldn't help but their eyes shone at this moment.

As the chief assistant, Xu Jie no longer hesitated at this moment. He took the lead in saying, "The prince's thoughts are extremely wonderful! This will not only allow a specific person to be responsible for the affairs of Nanjing, but also greatly stabilize and increase the court's control over Nanjing. I agree with the prince's idea."
