Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 598 Who Are You?
Gao Wushi's last stop before leaving the capital was to visit his uncle Zhang Siwei and his teacher Guo Pu. They had a heart-to-heart talk with Gao Wushi respectively.

Early the next morning, Gao Yushi left Beijing and headed south to Guangxi to take up his post.

This time when he went south to Guangxi, he obtained the emperor's permission to bring armed servants with him, so he specially called [-] well-trained servants to accompany him.

The servants he took this time were different from the previous few times. Since he was going to Guangxi, where the mountains and forests are dense, he did not bring cavaliers. All 300 people were all Buding, but they were still equipped with horses, which is somewhat similar to Qi Jiguang’s journey to Ji Mounted infantry trained after the town.

The other biggest difference is that all the three hundred family members carried muskets openly this time, and the accompanying baggage team also carried enough gunpowder, bullets, and some cash.

Gao Wushi has no influence in the south, and the tentacles that go deepest in the south are the former Guangzhou Guangang, which was bought or replaced from the Ministry of Households. After Gao Wushi arrives in Guangxi, if he wants to transfer money, grain or other materials, the nearest channel is Called from Guangzhou.

However, at this time, the Guangxi Provincial Government is not in Nanning, but in Guilin, which is relatively far away.Moreover, since Guangxi is not stable, mobilizing resources is naturally dangerous, so before he set off to the south, he sent Gao Mengnan to Guangzhou to sit in charge.

Gao Mengnan is the adopted son of his uncle Gao Jie. He has been operating the port and building the fleet with Shuai Jiamo in Tianjin Port before. He is quite experienced in port management and fleet management, so he was selected by Gao Yushi. to Guangzhou.

Of course, the northern fleet is dominated by sandships, which are somewhat different from the mainstream sea-going ships in the south. However, Gao Yushi's transfer to Guangxi was originally an emergency, and he had no better way.In fact, he originally thought that Shuai Jiamo was from the south, and it might be better to transfer to Guangzhou Port, but after all, Gao Mengnan bears the surname of Gao, so it would be easier to open up the situation in Guangzhou—of course there are Gao Party officials in Guangdong, and they might sell Gao Mengnan a little bit Face, but it's hard to change Shuai Jiamo.

Fortunately, Gao Mengnan's trip to Guangzhou this time was mainly to match the high pragmatism in Guangxi, so what he really needed was not a sharp-bottomed sea-going boat, but an inland river boat.Therefore, when Gao Wushi sent him to Guangzhou, he also conveyed an order within Jinghua. From the day of receiving the order, all proceeds from Guangzhou Port will be temporarily suspended from deportation to the Jingshi, and all will be kept in Guangzhou until the new order is issued. At the same time, Gao Mengnan will be able to use these funds.

Gao Mengnan went south to Guangzhou by sea, and in theory it must be faster than Gao Yushi to reach Guangxi, so he also got some instructions from Gao Yushi in advance, and there are many things that need to be arranged immediately after arriving in Guangzhou.

And Gao Wushi will travel southward with a team of 200 Liu Xin and Liu Jiajiading, a total of more than [-] people, and settle down in Xinzheng after [-] days.

Gao's mother, Mrs. Zhang, had already learned about her son's recent situation in advance. As soon as Gao Wushi arrived in Xinzheng, she was sent back to Longwen Yayuan by someone she sent.

The gate of Longwen Yayuan was originally built according to the level of the castle, which should be expensive, but this time when Gao Pragmatic came back, he found that the gate seemed to have been rebuilt again.

He sized it up and saw at a glance that there was a majestic and exquisitely carved stone archway outside the gate, with four gilt characters written "Six Champions", and a pair of couplets on the two main pillars in the middle , The first couplet said: "Six yuan and the first, the real leader for 200 years", the second couplet said: "I have served the emperor for ten years, and I am Wenqu Luoshudan".

The font of the inscription is smaller, and the high-level practicality is far away, so it is not very clear, and it seems to have the words "by decree bestowed on the Zhuangyuanfang".In front of the gate of Longwen Yayuan, there is also a tall flagpole with the flags flying, and the words "Liuyuan Jidi" are also written on it.

Liu Xin and Gao Yushi walked side by side, and when they saw this situation, they said with admiration: "Gao Zhizhi, your Zhuangyuanfang, even if you can't say it's 'unprecedented', it must be 'unprecedented'. "

Zhizhi is an elegant name given to the censors in the Ming Dynasty, and its origin is "embroidered clothes Zhizhi" in the Han Dynasty. "Embroidered clothing Zhizhi" is also known as "Zhizhi envoy" and "Embroidered clothing censor".In the second year of Tianhan, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Fan Kun, a doctor of Guanglu, and Zhang De, a former Jiuqing, etc., embroidered clothes, held festivals and tiger charms, and used the method of military prosperity to send troops to suppress peasant uprisings, because of this name.This unofficial official name, embroidered clothes itself represents the respect and favor of the monarch.As for pointing directly, Yan Shigu's annotations in "Hanshu·Baiguangongqingbiao" quoted Fuqian and said: "According to the matter, there is no selfishness."

Therefore, the embroidered clothes directly pointed to the elegant name of the patrol censor, which not only affirmed that the patrol censor was trusted and favored by the emperor, but also implied the power of "supervising the army" of the patrol censor.

After listening to Liu Xin's words, Gao Wushi smiled, and said, "I have met you recently, which is quite unprecedented."

Liu Xin didn't know the real reason why Gao Yushi was demoted to the third level, so in her opinion, Gao Yushi suffered an unreasonable disaster, and comforted her: "From what my family saw, this incident was just an excuse from the Empress Dowager Cisheng. It should be just a warning to the emperor not to forget the ancestral system, and the direct point is just to be angered. Besides, Yuanfu and the general constitution are clearly right and wrong.

Taishi is an elegant name for the officials of the Imperial Academy and Zhan Shifu.

Gao Wushi smiled and said nothing.In fact, although Liu Xin didn't know about the two princesses, her analysis hit the nail on the head. The biggest reason for Empress Dowager Li's sudden attack this time was actually to warn Zhu Yijun.

As Zhu Yijun gets older, doesn't Empress Dowager Li know that sooner or later he will be independent and in charge?But she has always been strict in discipline, and she was afraid that her son would behave like some emperors who had ascended the throne before the age of Ming Dynasty, so she would find an opportunity to beat him up.

In fact, don't look at her saying that the emperor will be abolished and the king Lu will be established in her mouth. In fact, it is just a threat, just like parents saying "are you going to spank their ass?" when disciplining their children.

At that time, when she persuaded the queen to return to Kunning Palace, she had already hinted at the queen to let her go back to Kunning Palace to "stay at ease"-if the emperor was abolished and a new one was established, would the queen still be able to stay in Kunning Palace?
It's just that Zhu Yijun's mind was too confused at that time, so he didn't hear it. As for whether the queen heard the meaning, outsiders don't know.

As for Gao Shishi's bad luck, it's not so much that he blamed the emperor, but the two princesses - the incident of the princess love poems must not be spread, and the root cause of this matter is that Zhu Yijun took them to Gao Yushi in violation of the rules. In the house, Zhu Yijun took the main responsibility, issued an imperial edict to punish himself, and Gao Pragmatic failed to persuade him, so he was jointly and severally responsible and demoted to three levels.

As for the severity of the Edict of Guilt, it is actually not as high as many people imagined.If you look through various historical materials of the Ming Dynasty, you will find that, not to mention that the emperor himself will be forced to condemn himself if he does something wrong, even if a comet appears in a certain place, he will punish himself if he goes up, and if he hits the emperor's palace with lightning, he will go up and down. Incriminate yourself", "A certain place has not rained for two years, but this year it has been flooded, so the superior has issued an imperial order to sin against yourself"...

Not to mention that Emperor Chongzhen, who later worked hard to disrupt the world, once issued six imperial edicts of crimes against himself.

But so what?Junfu is not Junfu anymore?Isn't the order of the king's father not an imperial decree?
To issue an edict to sin against oneself is nothing more than the strength of the civil official group as a whole, forcing the emperor to make such a gesture, which does not mean that the emperor's authority has been greatly affected-although I cannot deal with the entire world of scholars, I can deal with a few of them. Pinch, that's still out of the question!
You know, even Emperor Jiajing, who was extremely violent and moody, had to issue an edict when it was time to sin. For example, in the 36th year of Jiajing, the three halls were caught in a fire in the palace. Jiajing was not the Roman emperor Nero. Just kidding, isn't he going to sin against himself anyway?
"Looking up to the advent of benevolence and love is all my fault. I am writing a crime against myself to show my subjects."

An emperor with an iron fist like grandfather Jiajing couldn't handle it. What's so strange about the little emperor Wanli who made a mistake and was punished by his mother?
Empress Dowager Li asked Zhu Yijun to issue an edict to sin against herself, not to tell him "not to disobey the empress mother", she didn't need to tell him.She was actually telling Zhu Yijun not to fight against the ancestral system recognized by the civil service group as a whole!
Of course, the Wanli Emperor in history did not believe in evil, so there was the subsequent "country-based dispute", and there was a subsequent 20 years of refusal to go to court, but did he win?

No, he lost, and the prince is still Zhu Changluo.

It can be seen that for the entire civil servant group, there must be more subtle means of struggle, and it is impossible to force it, unless he has the ability to overthrow Daming and rebuild it.

But how could it be possible for the emperor to consider tearing down and rebuilding?Only Li Zicheng would consider it.

If it is not postponed to rebuilding, we can only follow the high-level pragmatic idea, and slowly replace one beam by one column, one brick by one tile, not only to ensure that the house will not collapse, but also to ensure that the materials are gradually replaced with new ones.

Why does Gao Pragmatism always feel that there is no such thing as decades of uncertainty?That's why.

People who have been ill for a long time cannot undergo major operations such as disembowelment and abdominal dissection, so they must first strengthen their foundations.He was adhering to this line of thinking when he persuaded Zhu Yijun to "separate and deal with the three major problems" outside Nansha River Huangzhuang.

In the end, Gao Wushi never felt that he was here to demolish the house. He always regarded himself as a repairer and remodeler. He must have made more noise than Li Hongzhang and less noise than Sun Dapao.

Liu Xin didn't know the inside story, but she was able to analyze the matter to the point that Gao Wushi couldn't help but look at her again, and even felt for a moment that if this woman was a man, she might be even more powerful than Liu Ting. I am determined to win over vigorously.

What a pity.

Gao Wushi smiled slightly: "Miss Liu is right, but this mulberry elm may not be ripe yet, and may be poisonous, so it's hard to say whether you can eat it happily."

Liu Xin suddenly smiled and said, "Zhang Taiyue hasn't become the chief assistant yet, so is there anything else that can be difficult for Gao Zhizhi?"

As soon as these words came out, Gao Wushi's expression changed drastically, and he said in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

Liu Xin blinked: "Who are you?"
