The most reckless man in the Ming Dynasty.
Chapter 55: New Army Admiral Zhongshan Hou!
Chapter 55: New Army Admiral Zhongshan Hou!
Tang Hao went home.
After a busy day, I finally went home.
However, because he wanted to visit this bustling capital, Tang Hao chose to walk home.
Well, the real reason is that he doesn't have a car yet, let alone a sedan, not even a horse.
The capital is bustling and noisy, with cars and horses and people flowing in and out.
After all, it was the imperial capital of the Ming Dynasty, so it was different after all.
No wonder that when you are in the capital, you don’t know the poverty of the place. You are drunk and dreaming every day. Who has the spare time to care about the suffering of the people?
Recalling the current situation of the noble military ministers and the arrogant people in the court, Tang Hao couldn't help but sigh, and lost the interest to continue wandering, and walked quickly back to his home.
As a result, when he arrived at the door, he found that someone was already waiting for him.
The person who came was none other than an old acquaintance, Chen Kuan, the eunuch in charge of the ceremonial department and the most powerful person in the inner court, known as the "internal prime minister".
When Chen Kuan saw Tang Hao, he immediately smiled and nodded.
The cheap second uncle Tang Li hurriedly came up to him and reminded him angrily: "Why are you still standing there in a daze? Go in and kneel down to receive the order!"
"This is the most powerful person in the imperial court. I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
Hearing this, Tang Hao was a little bit dumbfounded. He first bowed his fist to Chen Kuan to apologize, and then entered the door.
The incense table, candles, etc. have all been prepared, waiting for Tang Hao, the real owner.
After Tang Hao knelt on the ground, Chen Kuan recited in a sharp voice: "The Emperor of Heaven has decreed: King Dongou has contributed greatly to the founding of the country, and the Tang family is full of heroes... Today there is the virtuous Tang Hao, who sacrifices his life to fight against the tiger. He has made a contribution to rescue the enemy, and his loyalty to the emperor and his patriotism can be learned from the sun and the moon... Now he is granted the title of Marquis of Zhongshan, hereditary, with a salary of 1,500 dan. In addition, Tang Hao is promoted to the left governor of the Central Military Governor's Mansion, leading the governor. As for the matter, the full-time admiral of the 12th Regiment and Battalion will re-select the frontman in the East Official Hall. Don’t worry about it...I admire this!"
To sum it up, it’s just one sentence, get promoted to a higher position!
He is the Marquis of Zhongshan, hereditary, and has a salary of 1,500 dan!
The official is the Left Governor of the Central Military Governor's Mansion, with a first-grade rank, and a monthly salary of eighty-seven dan!
As for the dispatch, that is, the actual duty, he is the admiral of the new army. The full-time admiral is responsible for re-selecting the front lines of the 12th Regiment and Battalion. Don't listen to the Eastern Government Office!
The official positions in the Ming Dynasty were divided into these three types.
Jue, official, position.
It can be said that Tang Hao ascended to the sky in one step and became an extremely popular minister!
The second-level prince, the first-level governor Zuo, and the admiral of the new army who holds real power are much better than those ordinary noble military ministers.
He was able to achieve this step, firstly because of his rescue efforts, and secondly because of the strong support of the noble military ministers, otherwise he would not have been able to reach the sky in one step!
"Your Majesty, Tang Hao, thanks you for your kindness!"
Thank you!
Since then, Tang Hao has become a powerful figure among the noble military ministers and another upstart in the Zhengde court!
Chen Kuan handed the imperial edict to Tang Hao, and then helped Tang Hao up with his own hands.
"Marquis Zhongshan, we can move around more in the future!"
Chen Kuan is now the internal minister and the most powerful person in the inner court. His overtures are not something that ordinary people can get!
In fact, Chen Kuan thought very clearly that Tang Hao, the Marquis of Zhongshan, was more favored than anyone else!
As long as he, Tang Hao, doesn't do anything to offend Long Yan, Tang Hao's future will be limitless!
In addition, as far as the current situation in the court is concerned, the civil servants and gentry are powerful. The eunuch group should unite with the military generals and nobles to jointly fight against the increasingly domineering civil servants and gentry and regain power for the little emperor!
Therefore, the two sides should be political allies now, so naturally they should have friendly exchanges.
Even if the little emperor knew it, he would not be angry, but would be happy.
"What a serious statement!" Tang Hao said with a smile: "We are all doing things for His Majesty, this is the way it should be!"
Tang Hao naturally understood the truth behind this.
Chen Kuan, the most powerful person in the imperial court, was much better than Zhang Yong.
Being able to win the favor of this "internal minister" and become a political ally with him is a very important thing for Tang Hao right now.
Never underestimate the eunuchs and eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty. Even Zhang Juzheng, the prime minister who saved the time, had to form a political alliance with the internal minister Feng Bao to ensure his power and position.
The two smart people looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.
Then Chen Kuan said goodbye and left, not wanting to stay here and cause trouble.
Tang Hao looked at his second uncle Tang Er and raised the imperial edict in his hand.
"Second uncle, what should I do with this thing? Put it in the warehouse to eat dust?"
"What are you talking about?" Tang Yan snatched the imperial edict and cursed angrily with a smile: "This is the imperial edict of my old Tang family to restore the imperial title!"
"Do you know how long we have been waiting for this day?"
Tears flashed faintly in Tang Yu's eyes.
The benefits brought by the title of Marquis in this life are one thing.
More importantly, this is recognition of the achievements of their ancestor Tang He!
Upon seeing this, Tang Hao smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "Okay, okay, let me handle it!"
"Let's go to the study and talk!"
Tang Er smiled and nodded, following Tang Hao while muttering incessantly.
"Send it up!"
"This imperial edict must be fulfilled!"
"By the way, it has to be enshrined in the ancestral temple, right next to the ancestors' spiritual tablets!"
Hearing this, Tang Hao couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.
"Second uncle, the ancestral temple should be in Fengyang, Zhongdu, right?"
"It doesn't matter!" Tang Hao replied casually: "Just move here!" As soon as these words came out, Tang Hao was immediately shocked.
Can it still be done like this?
After entering the study room, Tang Li and Tang Hao had a conversation.
It is nothing more than analyzing the current situation, especially the re-selection of front lines to form a new army.
"Second uncle, do you understand Xu Jin, the Minister of War?"
Tang Li frowned when he heard this, and explained in a deep voice: "Xu Jin was a Jinshi in the second year of Chenghua, and then became the censor. He was a public official from the Department of Science and Technology. He was once framed by Wang Zhi for impeaching Chen Yue, a member of Wang Zhi's party. Revenge, Tingzhang almost to death!"
"During the Hongzhi period, Xu Jin inspected the Jiubian Military Town in Datong, Shanxi many times. After his rectification, the army became strong and the border defenses were repaired. He was considered a good talent. He also served as the governor of Gansu and regained Hami, the northwest gateway for the country. , He is a man who knows how to fight."
"Since Liu Daxia, Secretary of the Ministry of War, has chosen to let Xu Jin supervise the new army with you, he naturally wants to constrain you. You should pay more attention to this person."
Hearing this, Tang Hao nodded.
Because of his stance, even Tang Qi spoke so highly of Xu Jin. It can be imagined that this person is definitely not a simple person.
He dared to impeach Wang Zhi, the eunuch of Wang Zhi, who almost died with the imperial rod, which proves that this person has strong bones!
He also served as governor of Gansu and regained Hami, the northwest gateway of the country, which proved that this man was not an ordinary civil servant who could only talk about military affairs on paper, but that he had real abilities.
When Liu Daxia threw Xu Jin into the New Army, his thoughts would definitely not be so pure.
"Tang Hao, isn't this house a bit small?"
"After all, your status is different now. How can the Zhongshan Marquis Mansion be so shabby?"
Tang Yan suddenly changed the topic, feeling a little dissatisfied with the slightly shabby and exquisite house.
Tang Hao is now the Marquis of Zhongshan, the leading figure of their old Tang family.
Not to mention that this house only has three entrances and three exits. The Xinguo Duke's Mansion in Fengyang, the central capital, covers an area of hundreds of acres. There is no comparison between the two.
Tang Hao curled his lips disdainfully and refused decisively.
"Second uncle, I am quite comfortable living in this house. I have no plans to move yet."
"If you have time, please come here more often. Anyway, I went to select frontiers and train troops, and I stayed in the military camp. I guess I won't have much time to come back."
Hearing this, Tang Yu nodded with a smile.
Tang Hao took the initiative to show his goodwill and handed over the family to his second uncle, which proved that he truly regarded himself as a member of the Tang family.
"Well, I will send more maids and servants over."
"Someone must take care of your food, clothing, and daily necessities!"
Tang Hao frowned when he heard this, but still nodded.
Now that we have come to the Ming Dynasty and become the upstart Zhongshan Marquis, we must choose to integrate into it.
There is no need to leave hidden dangers for yourself because of some trivial details.
The two communicated for a while, and seeing Tang Hao's face looking tired, Tang Hao wisely said goodbye and left.
After he left, Tang Hao finally calmed down and lay on the bed, lost in thought.
After several days of hard work between him and the little emperor, this difficult situation was finally solved.
At least, Tang Hao can take charge of the new army, and the little emperor will be more confident in his actions.
An emperor with military power and an emperor without military power are two different concepts.
However, troubles also appeared along with it.
That is the issue of money, food and equipment.
The little emperor also said before that the national treasury is empty and the internal treasury has no money.
How poor is this little emperor?
There is no money to hold a funeral for Emperor Hongzhi!
I have no money to organize a coronation ceremony for myself!
I still have no money to hold a wedding ceremony for the newlywed queen!
This is the result of Emperor Hongzhi’s hard work for seventeen years!
The so-called "Hongzhi ZTE" is indeed a joke, a huge joke!
As for whose pocket all this money and food went into, that would be very interesting.
Originally, Tang Hao was not prepared to open this door and offer strategies to the little emperor to earn money.
It's a pity that Tang Hao didn't expect that the little emperor would be so poor that he would have to quarrel with civil servants and gentry just for a hundred thousand taels of silver to get married!
He, Tang Hao, wanted to train troops and build an iron army, so money, food, and supplies were all indispensable!
As for the money, food and supplies, the little emperor must provide it, and it can only be provided by the little emperor. Otherwise, this new army will become Tang Hao's private army, and then he will be a real arrogant weapon!
For example, the world-famous Qi Family Army was eventually wiped out because of suspicions of being private soldiers.
As for General Qi Jiguang, after Zhang Juzheng died of illness, he was also liquidated by the imperial court. He was impeached and returned to his hometown. He eventually died of poverty and frustration. It is said that he was even so poor that he couldn't even pay for medical treatment!
As for Yu Dayou, who is also known as "Yu Long Qi Hu", and the Yu Family Army he formed, they are not much better. He has made great achievements in battles throughout his life, but it is difficult to get promotion. There are a mountain of memorials to impeach him by civil servants and gentry. In his later years, he had to He went to hospital three times in a row and asked to retire and return to his hometown, but he eventually died of illness.
This is the Ming Dynasty!
The Ming Dynasty cannot tolerate the noble military officers and nobles!
Under this premise, if Tang Hao and the little emperor wanted to break the shackles of this civil servant and gentry, it would be as difficult as being promoted to heaven!
However, Tang Hao was fearless.
He is a wild man and has nothing to fear.
The question now is to see the determination of the little emperor!
If you want to revitalize the Ming Dynasty, it is impossible to rely solely on Tang, one person, and shameless people.
"Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Houzhao, I hope you won't disappoint anyone!"
Today’s first update, let’s talk about the update problem. It’s not that Lao Gu keeps putting off updates, but that the best number of words to update every day is two to four thousand words. In this way, four rounds of recommendations can be obtained according to the process, so Lao Gu is also very helpless. Now there are two updates and 6,000 words per day. We strive to put it on the shelves as soon as possible and then update it quickly. After it is put on the shelves, Laogu will update more, so I hope readers will vote for it. Thank you very much!
