I'm only seven years old, Lao Zhu, you let me supervise the country?

Chapter 398 Cultivate powerful officials of the Ming Dynasty!Daming Haixiang!
When Zhu Yunxuan saw this name, he had enough premonitions.

He will definitely be able to shoulder the responsibility of a powerful minister, and Zhu Yunxuan is confident enough to keep this powerful minister from his control.

This person’s name is Zhai Shan!
The former Minister of the Ministry of Personnel was demoted to the governor of Shaanxi Province last time after being implicated in the affairs of Fu Youwen, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel.

But even though it was said to be a demotion.

But for Zhai Shan, it might actually be a promotion!

Because Zhai Shan could not control the Ministry of Personnel before, all the power was controlled by one person, and that was Fu Youwen, the Minister of Personnel!But after becoming the governor of Shaanxi, he might have some strength and be able to intervene in the local government!
And after experiencing the joy of authority.

This person must be reluctant to let go!

Before, he was clearly the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, a high-power position, but all the power was in the hands of others. He may not have felt it at the time.

But now.

Zhu Yunzhen felt that this person would definitely feel it deeply.

Moreover, looking at what this person did after arriving in Shaanxi, he had a strong desire to control and was extremely demanding of every word and deed of his subordinates.

And when doing things, he can figure out his intentions and understand the court's intentions.

Therefore, in just one or two months, another world has appeared in Shaanxi.

He has extraordinary ability and desire for power, because he has lost it before, so he must have a strong desire for power.

Isn't this kind of person exactly what Zhu Yunzhen is looking for?
"Come here, give an order immediately to summon Shaanxi Governor Zhai Shan back to Beijing to report on his duties!"

"I want to see him appear in front of me within ten days!"

Zhu Yunxuan gave a strong order.

Soon, within ten days, Zhai Shan appeared in front of Zhu Yunxu.

"Your Majesty, Governor Zhai Shan of Shaanxi Province, I would like to see Your Highness!"

Zhai Shan was terrified and uneasy.

I don’t know why His Highness Taisun suddenly summoned me to Beijing. Could it be that he was dissatisfied with me as the governor of Shaanxi?

But he felt that there was no problem during this period.

Zhai Shan, the governor of other places, thinks that he may not be any better than him. It can even be said that he is not as good as him at all!
And in a month or two, who can make a big mistake?

But if not.

So why did Zhu Yunxuan suddenly summon him to the capital, and why did he have to come to the capital in ten days? He was so anxious?
Zhai Shan was extremely confused.

On the opposite side, Zhu Yunxi looked at Zhai Shan, with no expression on his face.

Some are just majestic in their brows.

"Zhai Shan, how are you doing as governor of Shaanxi these days?"

"Have you ever thought about returning to the position of Minister of Civil Affairs?"

Zhu Yunzhen said casually.

It was as if he was casually chatting with Zhai Shan about home affairs, but when Zhai Shan heard these words, he suddenly broke into a cold sweat!
Your Highness, what does this mean?
Minister of official affairs?Who doesn’t know now!Yang Shiqi, a confidant of His Highness Taisun, serves as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. This is a truly important minister!If nothing unexpected happens, he may not be able to return to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel in this life!

But now...

Zhu Yunxuan actually asked him if he wanted to return to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel?
Could it be that you suspect he has ulterior motives?

That's right.

He does have ulterior motives, and he is already so greedy for power that all he thinks about is power!

When he was controlled by a mere minister, and when he was kicked out of the official department by Zhu Yunxu like a dog, he set a goal and only wanted to chase power throughout his life!
Nothing else can stop him!

Not to prove it to others, just to win!How did he lose his position as Minister of Civil Affairs, how would he get it back!
But he had never said these words to anyone else.

Naturally, His Highness Taisun cannot know!

"This..." Zhai Shan could only pretend to be stupid and said: "Your Highness, I am now serving as the governor of Shaanxi. Naturally, I have to do things well in Shaanxi before thinking about other things."

"As for the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Mr. Yang is in charge."

"It must be foolproof."

"It's much better than the official department where I was before."

Zhai Shan's answer can be said to be watertight.

Nothing inappropriate at all.

But Zhu Yunzhen heard a hint of unwillingness from the other party's tone, which was something that the still very immature Zhai Shan could not hide!

It seems that the fish took the bait.

Zhu Yunxu raised a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, and then said: "Zhai Shan, tell me, are the people in this world willing to leave the Ming Dynasty and live in another land?"

Zhai Shan thought for a while.

I don't understand what Zhu Yunzhen means.

He could only say honestly: "Your Highness, of course you won't be willing."

"It's hard to leave your homeland."

"Today's Ming Dynasty is prosperous. If it is not possible to survive, who would be willing to go elsewhere?"

"But Daming, there is no place that you can't survive, right?"

Zhai Shan also understands these principles.

But Zhu Yunzhen shook his head.

Said: "But, what if Gu Gu wants them to go to sea?"

"Do you think Gu can do it? And can you do it?"

Zhai Shan was suddenly shocked!
It turned out that this was Zhu Yunxun's purpose in urgently calling him back from Shaanxi!His Highness Taisun... could it be that you want him to help persuade the people to open the sea?
Do not……

Should not be!

If this is the case, anyone can do it, why is it him?
And it was brought back from such a remote place in Shaanxi?

It's something that a court official can do just by asking him!

In this way, Zhu Yunzhen's purpose is not at all!What Zhu Yunxuan said about asking people to go to sea was not persuasion, but force!

Zhu Yunzhen's true purpose.

Let him take the blame!It is up to him to speak out His Highness Taisun’s thoughts, and to help His Highness Taisun implement some methods that are difficult to implement!

This will be a road leading to eternal disaster!
Zhai Shan immediately wanted to refuse.

But right now.

Zhu Yunzhen said leisurely: "Going to sea is the most important thing in the world."

"I plan to establish the Overseas Affairs Department and become the Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty! In charge of all overseas affairs!"

"He also serves as the minister of the advisory office and has the right to inquire about government affairs."

"And we can ask all departments within the country to cooperate and coordinate on going to sea."

"And the director of the overseas shipping department..."

When Zhu Yunzhen said this, he suddenly stopped and stopped talking. He just looked at Zhai Shan with his eyes.

Watching Zhai Shan go from frightened to excited.

Finally, the expression of determination.

Zhu Yunzhen knew that it was done!
"Your Highness, although I don't understand the importance of going to sea, I know that the people in this world are all the people of the Ming Dynasty!"

"They are all His Highness's subjects!"

"And if His Highness wants to open the sea, the people of Ming Dynasty have the obligation to contribute to Ming Dynasty!"

"It's not voluntary, it's necessary!"

But Zhu Yunxuan shook his head.

Said: "Wrong."

"Not alone."

"It's you!"

"Understandable?"

Zhu Yunxuan didn't know what forced the people to go to sea from the beginning to the end, but the people below would get it wrong.

That's it!

It's all Zhai Shan who's causing trouble!Zhu Yunzhen's original intentions are all good!And there will be huge rewards for going to sea!

of course.

This reward is just a trick of giving six cents. It is said that it is ten cents, but the actual allocation is only seven cents.

Zhai Shan must bear all the infamy for Zhu Yunxu.

Naturally, what follows is boundless money, and even supreme power!
Without so much money and power, how could he become a powerful minister with all the power in the government?

How could he help Zhu Yunxuan accomplish many things that he was unwilling to do?
Even more unbelievable.

Zhu Yunzhen was deceived!
Zhai Shan knew this very well. When Zhu Yunxu said, "It's you," Zhai Shan knew that he was going to take the blame!
Agree now.

It is tantamount to signing a contract of betrayal!
From now on, I will continue to work for Zhu Yunxuan!
But does Zhai Shan still have a choice?

If he doesn't agree, he may not even be the governor of Shaanxi, and Zhu Yunzhen is just looking for the next person willing to be this 'puppet official'.

Zhai Shanben had already been kicked out of the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel by Zhu Yunxu.

Now if he is kicked out from the position of governor of Shaanxi again.

Wouldn't that make it even more useless? !

But even if he wants to agree, Zhai Shan still has to sell himself for a good price!

"Your Highness."

"You said that going overseas is a major event in the world."

"Then ask."

"Does this Izumi have the most powerful power in the world?!"

Zhai Shan also said the word "want to persuade" almost directly!
"It's more than just one-on-one."

"He is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people!"

Zhu Yunzhen's words were like the sound of thunder, rumbling!

Zhai Shanzhi was so shocked that he felt dizzy.

next moment.

Zhai Shan no longer hesitated, knelt down and cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness."

"I am not talented, so I asked myself to be the director of the overseas affairs department!"

This time.

Zhu Yunzhen couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

My own powerful minister of the Ming Dynasty has been found!
……

Fengtian Temple.

early morning.

"There is a recitation of this book, and there is nothing to retreat to the court!"

The palace man's sharp voice sounded.

next moment.

Zhai Shan, the former Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and the current governor of Shaanxi, came out.

Said: "I have this memorial!"

Then he explained all the things that were inconvenient to talk about one by one, and persuaded Zhu Yunzhen that he should set up a maritime affairs department to take charge of the world's maritime affairs.

What shocked all the courtiers was that His Highness Taisun actually agreed!
A local official came to report on the affairs of the DPRK, and His Highness Taisun actually agreed?What this meant was understood by all the civil and military officials present almost instantly!
There must have been private discussions between Zhai Shan and His Highness Taisun.

These words may be what His Highness Taisun meant!As for the Shipping Department... this department is in charge of all shipping matters, although it doesn't seem particularly important now.

But his power is extremely terrifying!
Because the other party is in charge of all overseas affairs!His power is no less than that of the previous prime minister!And the Prime Minister has not been weakened in any way!

In maritime matters, one person is almost as good as ten thousand people!
Moreover, His Highness Taisun agreed to establish the Maritime Affairs Department, which shows that His Highness attaches great importance to maritime affairs. Isn’t the previous use of 3000 million taels of money to build an invincible navy a clear evidence of this?
His Highness Taisun, his thoughts are no longer in the Ming Dynasty.

Instead, we have already looked overseas and around the world!
The ministers in the DPRK couldn't help but sigh in annoyance, why they had never told His Highness about going to sea before, otherwise, they might have had a share of the sea going department established today!
This is a department with endless potential!

Similar to the People's Supervision Department established by Zhu Yunzhen before, it is definitely a position that only Zhu Yunzhen's confidants can sit in!
But the difference is.

The power of the People's Supervision Department is extremely low. It is just a place to cultivate the talents of officials that Zhu Yunxu is optimistic about.

But Haiji is different.

This is clearly a department with great power!

It is completely based on the current six parts, starting from scratch, and it has become a completely new system that is beyond the six parts!And when the affairs of Chuhai expand, I am afraid that Chuhai Division will be another six departments of the Ming Dynasty!And the director of the Shipping Department... is the Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty!
"Today's world is changing rapidly."

"Although the Ming Dynasty was rich in the world and had boundless territory, it was still far behind the rest of the world."

“We must go to sea without delay!”

"From today on, you, Zhai Shan, will be the head of the Overseas Affairs Department! You are a second-rank official! You are also the Minister of the Advisory Office! In charge of all matters related to the Overseas Affairs Department!"

"As for your original position as governor of Shaanxi."

"The Guhui will send someone else to take over."

Zhai Shan immediately kowtowed and knelt to thank His Highness the Grand Sun.

Subsequently.

Zhu Yunxuan turned his attention to the Ministry of Revenue again and said: "Xia Yuanji, after coming to court, immediately allocate 500 million taels of silver to Haisi."

"Leave it to Zhai Shan to build the Haisi Yamen himself."

"Mainly in Jinling, Shanghai, Guangdong and other coastal areas, a complete system of overseas administrative offices has been established."

"We must set up the framework of the overseas shipping department within two months!"

"Zhai Shan."

"Gu is very optimistic about you, don't let Gu down!"

Just for a moment.

Zhai Shan was promoted from the position of governor to director of the Overseas Expedition Department and minister of the Advisory Office!Second grade official residence!
The last person to receive this kind of treatment was Yang Shiqi, the current Minister of Civil Affairs!

Do not!
Zhai Shan's treatment is even better than that of Yang Shiqi!
From a long-term perspective, the Chuhai Department is definitely a yamen that is a hundred times more powerful than the People's Supervision Department!

Not only did he have a second-grade position at the beginning.

500 million taels were also specially allocated to build the Yamen of the Overseas Shipping Department.

Such treatment.

This has never happened since the founding of the People's Republic of China!

How much does His Highness Taisun think highly of Zhai Shan?Or, in other words, how optimistic are you about Izumi?

But by this time.

All the court officials began to understand.

His Highness Taisun spared no effort in going to sea. He first allocated 3000 million taels to build an invincible navy, and then allocated 500 million taels to build a sea-going department.

As long as it's about going to sea.

It means endless resource tilt!

As for the local government officials in the interior, they were completely like stepmothers and could not get any good things done. On the contrary, they were easily found out for corruption by Zhu Yunxu.

On the other hand, look at Izumi.

Even before setting up his own yamen, he was already making a lot of money.

No need for corruption at all.

Just a little leakage from the cracks of your fingers is enough for them to eat!

a time.

All the civil and military officials in the court felt the importance of going to sea!
It's not the matter itself that matters.

But Zhu Yunzhen thinks that he is very important, so he is very important!
In essence, it is still the supreme imperial power that overwhelms all different figures!

But it is even more driven by interests!

Because only by following the path of going to sea can you get the greatest benefits!

Official position, power, money.

You can have them all!
