Daming: Old Zhu, we agreed not to rush!

Chapter 243 Still Earl!Ren Yuan Bo Su Jing!

Duke!

The highest level among the fifth-class titles.

According to the system of the Tang Dynasty, the king of the county and the duke of the state belonged to the first rank, but in the Ming Dynasty, the duke of the state and the duke of the first rank were the dukes of the first rank, and the marquis of the first rank.

This status is simply not comparable to ordinary people.

At this moment, Li Shanchang directly raised Su Jing's contribution to the level of being a Duke, which is equivalent to putting Su Jing on the fire.

Hu Weiyong lowered his head, deeply moved.

Older gingers are more spicy.

Although Li Shanchang has been talking about retiring, this method is not like what a person who wants to resign should have.

Cui Liang heard the words and said: "Prime Minister Zuo, you are the Duke of Han, what do you mean by this? The title of Duke of the Kingdom can be bestowed by extraordinary people, but no matter how great Su Jing's contribution is, it is not enough."

It is obviously impossible for Feng Guogong to do so.

Even if it is Zhu Yuanzhang, it has to be weighed.

This large group of heroes is still there, if you directly confer the title of a young man who has never even fought a battle, you will definitely get a lot of opposition.

Even the Marquis, there are still quite a few heroes waiting in line to be named.

Once the marquis is granted, Su Jing will naturally have a lot of enemies.

Li Shanchang replied: "Cui Shangshu, I'm just inferring according to what you said, besides, I'm not groundless, I haven't finished talking about Su Jing's credit."

If it is directly said that Su Jing should be named Duke, it must be a big problem.

But now it's Cui Liang who's caught the loophole in his words, and things get interesting.

Cui Liang's face was a little ugly, but he was really not easy to refute.

This is the wisdom of Li Shanchang. If you want Su Jing to be named Marquis, then you can directly say Feng Guogong.

There is nothing better than this.

The ministers in the hall have different expressions.

Zhu Yuanzhang sat high on the dragon chair, watching everything that happened below indifferently.

Zhu Biao frowned slightly, and was also thinking about the changes in the situation of the court.

As Su Jing was his teacher, he naturally didn't want Su Jing to fall into endless party struggles after entering the court.

But Zhu Biao also knew that the current Su Jing could not avoid falling into party disputes.

Just like at this moment, it is obvious that Su Jing is not here at all, but the things surrounding him are already arguing endlessly.

"Biao'er, keep talking."

Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, as if he didn't care about the following debate.

It is obvious that Su Jing's affairs are being promoted by him.

Hearing this, Zhu Biao continued: "Master Su improved the firearm not long ago, and produced a firecracker that can be fired by a single person and does not need to be ignited. Now the first batch of new firecrackers have been cast and tested. After being equipped with the Shenji Battalion, the battle The strength can be increased several times in no time.”

New style firecrackers!

Another big news.

The civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty were all shocked.

Of course, Xu Da and Chang Yuchun, who had already guessed that this new type of gun was improved by Su Jing, seemed quite calm.

Zhu Yuanzhang stayed up all night for a new type of firecracker, urging the firecracker manufacturing department under the Baoyuan Bureau to directly produce the first one.

Experimented on the spot, and with good success.

The new firecrackers enhanced the military strength of Ming Dynasty, which was much more powerful than the wolf constitution and the mandarin duck formation.

One is just a method of fighting Japanese pirates, and the other is to directly update firearms.

This is not the same at all.

Zhu Liangzu was in a daze. As a military commander, he had already obtained this new type of firecracker.

After simply trying it a few times, it was pretty addictive.

He also deeply understands how much this new type of firecracker will enhance the military strength of Ming Dynasty.

But what Zhu Liangzu never expected was that this thing was actually improved by Su Jing.

Immediately Xu Da and Chang Yuchun will lead the Northern Expedition, and the new firecrackers will come in handy immediately, which will have a crucial impact on the subsequent Northern Expedition.

Still a positive influence.

Su Jing!

Why is it Ni!
Zhu Liangzu cried out in his heart.

He didn't want to believe this fact, and he also somewhat understood why the people he sent out disappeared without a word.

It is not normal for Su Jing who can transform this new type of firecracker to take effect.

Xu Da has not spoken, but he has been observing the reactions of the officials.

Su Jing's climate is already a bit uncontrollable.

Zhu Yuanzhang's performance in today's drama is really wonderful.

Chang Yuchun was overjoyed, and she didn't hide it at all.

Don't look at him as a member of the Huaixi Group, but as the future father-in-law of Prince Zhu Biao, he doesn't need to form a party with anyone at all.

Su Jing was his life-saving benefactor twice, this is the greatest kindness to Chang Yuchun.

Cui Liang was in a daze when he heard Zhu Biao's words.

Although he has no objection to Su Jing's entry into the court, his impression of Su Jing has always been bad.

Before today, he didn't think highly of Su Jing.

but.

Today, after Zhu Biao's meritorious deeds, Su Shi's weight in his heart has increased greatly.

If Su Jing had done these things a few years earlier, I am afraid that he would really have a chance to become a public servant.

One by one, it is really a great achievement!
Moreover, Su Jing is also deeply loved by Zhu Yuanzhang at this moment, so it can be said that all the conditions are met.

It's as if the leader appreciates his subordinates, and the subordinates are comprehensive and meet all the conditions. The promotion is smooth all the way.

Su Jing, in the future, no, in the near future, he will definitely become an existence that cannot be ignored in the Great Ming Dynasty.

"Cui Shangshu, for Su Jing's contribution, it shouldn't be too much to be named a Marquis."

Li Shanchang said to Cui Liang, but he actually said it to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Whether it is an earl or a marquis, Zhu Yuanzhang has to decide on the matter of the title.

Cui Liang stopped talking, he could understand Li Shanchang's operation, so he would not be Li Shanchang's gun.

"Shanchang, are you finished?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Li Shanchang and said, as soon as these words came out, there was a sense of oppression.

As the emperor, he can see the court situation better than anyone else.

Because others are in the court situation, and Zhu Yuanzhang is the one who controls the court situation.

The confrontation between Li Shanchang and Su Jing was provoked by him himself.

Li Shanchang clasped his hands and replied immediately: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for speaking nonsense."

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say Li Shanchang, but asked Zhu Biao who was beside him: "Prince, what do you think? What should Su Jing be named as?"

This Ming world will eventually belong to Zhu Biao in the future.

There are some things that Zhu Biao has to judge by himself.

Zhu Biao was silent, and immediately began to think continuously in his mind. He knew that this was a test question given to him by his father Zhu Yuanzhang.

Although most of the officials below lowered their heads, they were all waiting for Zhu Biao's result.

Zhu Yuanzhang will only accept other suggestions, but in the end it is still Zhu Yuanzhang's own decision.

However, there is a high probability that Zhu Yuanzhang will follow Zhu Biao's suggestion directly, especially in the serious time of the early dynasty.

Not long after, Zhu Biao's eyes became clear. He looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "Reporting to my father, my son thinks that Master Su should be made an earl."

count!

It is impossible for the Duke of the state, but there is still a chance for the Marquis to forcibly seal it.

But Zhu Biao, who is Su Jing's student, suggested to the Earl.

As soon as these words came out, an imperceptible look of satisfaction flashed across Zhu Yuanzhang's face.

Among the hundreds of officials, there are also different thoughts.

There was a smile on the corner of Zhu Liangzu's mouth, and he thought in his heart: Su Jing, it seems that you are nothing more than that, the relationship between His Royal Highness and you is not as good as the rumors say.

Cui Liang remained silent, but looking at Zhu Biao, he only felt that Daming's future was hopeful.

Li Shanchang has always had that expression, as if everything is taken for granted.

Most of the officials of the Huaixi Group were very excited. In their view, it was because Zhu Biao missed them and did not want a Su Jing to overwhelm them.

Those officials who were not from the Huaixi Group were surprised and somewhat disappointed.

After all, birth determines too many things, even the prince Zhu Biao cannot be exempted.

Compared with the members of the Huaixi Group, they have a huge inherent disadvantage.

Of course, these people are not real top officials of Ming Dynasty, so that's all they think about.

For people like Hu Weiyong, he just sighed in his heart: Your Highness, the Crown Prince, is really becoming more and more like His Majesty.

"Okay, then according to what the prince said, do you have anything else to say?"

Zhu Yuanzhang dropped the hammer, and the matter was over.

At this time, there will be no Er Que to speak out.

His Majesty and the Crown Prince have reached a consensus, so the opinions of other people are already insignificant.

"It seems that you have no objections, then I will make a decision. Considering Su Jing's contribution, I will specially honor Uncle Renyuan."

Zhu Yuanzhang spoke lightly.

Obviously, Uncle Renyuan's title was something he had long thought of.

As for the specific grades and corresponding official positions, Zhu Yuanzhang is not in a hurry, these will be decided by Su Jing himself in the future.

That's right, in Zhu Yuanzhang's vision, he wanted to give Su Jing considerable autonomy.

Su Jing's mind is indeed very good, but what he needs to face is not one opponent, but a group of them.

Therefore, such autonomy is necessary.

Uncle Renyuan!
Benevolence, virtue and love are called benevolence.

Far, profound talent and learning is far away.

The title of earl is quite lofty.

Just hearing the word title, the officials already knew Su Jing's position in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart.

Benevolence and love refer to moral character, and talent and learning refer to ability.

Full of expectations!

"Okay, let's retreat, that's all for today."

With a wave of Zhu Yuanzhang's hand, an extremely important early court ended just like that.

Outside Fengxian Hall, above the stairs.

All the officials walked down slowly, each with different thoughts. For them, the amount of information in today's morning court is really too much.

"Cui Shangshu, stay here."

Li Shanchang called to Cui Liang who was in front of him, and said with a smile on his face: "Just now in the court hall, everything was justly said, I hope Cui Shangshu doesn't mind."

Cui Liang said indifferently: "Prime Minister Zuo is serious, but it's all for Daming's sake, so I naturally don't mind."

Li Shanchang said with a smile: "Cui Shangshu is indeed straightforward, which I really admire. I hope that Cui Shangshu can still maintain his current attitude in the future."

"That doesn't bother Prime Minister Zuo."

After Cui Liang finished speaking, he didn't stop at all, and walked forward quickly.

Li Shanchang looked at Cui Liang's back, the smile on the corner of his mouth slowly dissipated.

"Prime Minister, today's move of yours is to advance by retreating, which really admires the officials!"

Hu Weiyong approached Li Shanchang and said.

Li Shanchang said indifferently: "What is retreating to advance? It's just a show with His Majesty."

acting?

Hu Weiyong was taken aback for a moment, a little confused.

Li Shanchang shook his head slightly and said: "Weiyong, your brain is always quick and your mind is active, but sometimes you do less unnecessary things and think more about important things, and you will naturally understand a lot."

In a word, Hu Weiyong was already beating him.

Being too close to Zhu Liangzu, this brain was also led by Zhu Liangzu.

"What the prime minister taught me is that Weiyong understands."

Hu Weiyong bowed his head immediately.

Hu Weiyong was very good at pretending to be a grandson before he really became Prime Minister Zuo of Ming Dynasty.

"It's just that Weiyong doesn't understand, what kind of drama did the prime minister and His Majesty play?"

Hu Weiyong continued to ask.

The more you understand the things in the court, the more correct you can do.

Li Shanchang said indifferently: "Weiyong, do you think that I am fighting against Cui Shangshu, and mentioning Su Jing's title as the Duke of the Kingdom is to flatter and kill Su Jing?"

Hu Weiyong nodded and said, "Exactly, isn't that what the prime minister meant?"

This matter is not only viewed by Hu Weiyong, but also by many officials in the court.

"Let me ask you, Weiyong, who do you think is the first person to hold grudges after Su Jing found out about this?"

Li Shanchang asked Hu Weiyong.

"Of course it's Cui Shangshu, no!"

Hu Weiyong replied subconsciously, and then immediately realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "It should be you, the prime minister."

Li Shanchang nodded and said: "Yes, you can still understand a little bit, let Su Jing hate me, this is what His Majesty asked me to do, I will naturally do it, this is the content of the scene I acted today. "

"Think about the joints. If you don't understand, then I can only say that my position may not be suitable for you."

As soon as these words came out, it was a very important blow to Hu Weiyong.

The position of prime minister was the position Hu Weiyong dreamed of.

Originally, Li Shanchang had made it clear many times that the position of prime minister would definitely belong to Li Shanchang in the future.

But now, another accident happened, and Hu Weiyong couldn't help being nervous.

"Yes, Prime Minister, after Weiyong goes back, he will definitely think about it carefully."

Hu Weiyong kept a low profile and humble, respectfully towards Li Shanchang.

Li Shanchang didn't say much anymore, and continued to move forward.

In the distance, Shi Jiabao, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, was asking Cui Liang, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, "Lord Cui, why are you doing this today? His Majesty must have thought about making Su Jing Earl, so there is no need to say anything."

Zhu Yuanzhang brought up the matter of Su Jing's canonization today for discussion, everyone knows it, and he must want to be canonized.

In this case, going straight to the point is the best option.

It seems a bit stupid to be as young as Cui Liang.

Although, judging from the results, Zhu Yuanzhang just wanted Cui Liang to cooperate.

Cui Liang said: "Shifu, there are some things that someone has to do. It is the right choice to be wise and protect yourself. I won't blame you, but I hope that when you take my position in the future, you can think about what you should do." what's the matter."
