I am the carpenter king

Cheng Guogong was really excited this time. For the few Dukes of the country, they are hereditary Dukes of the country and share the same relationship with the country. Few rewards can impress them.But life is inseparable from fame and fortune.If there is no preference for profit, then fame will naturally become the only pursuit.

Duke Guo is no exception. Emperor Tianqi's words reached Duke Cheng's heart, he quickly lifted up his clothes and knelt down on the ground, and said loudly: "I will definitely do my best, and I will never disappoint the emperor's expectations of me."

Reaching out to help Cheng Guogong up, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "The blessings of the ancestors will naturally make Aiqing an extraordinary position, with no worries about food and clothing, but some things still have to be obtained by oneself."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for teaching me, I will keep it in my heart!" Standing up, Cheng Guogong said with an expression of emotion on his face.

Emperor Tianqi looked at the cabinet scholars and military ministers around him, and said with a smile: "You don't have to envy Cheng Guogong, I will not treat any of you badly, and do everything in hand well. It has its own reward!"

All the people present had smiles on their faces. Whether it was Emperor Taizu or Emperor Chengzu, there were many rewards for the Dukes of the country, but only the few in front of them were really left at this time.Only Wei Guogong and Qian Guogong hold the real power. Now that they have the opportunity, they will naturally not let it go.

"Okay, all my loves have been tired all day, so I'm here today! All my loves are going back, and I'm going back to the palace too!" Emperor Tianqi already felt a little tired, it seems that his body still needs to exercise, Otherwise, it is inevitable to be a short-lived emperor.After making up his mind, Emperor Tianqi smiled and said to everyone.

"I will send you off to the emperor respectfully!" Everyone watched Emperor Tianqi leave with a sigh of relief.Some people were supported by people around them, obviously they were also exhausted.These people are not young, and they dare not show such a look when Emperor Tianqi is around.

In the next few days, nothing major happened in the capital and the ruling and opposition parties.What attracts attention is the strategy of reforming the Imperial College proposed by Liu Yijing when he was in the first auxiliary university of the cabinet.In it, Liu Yijing stated in detail the purpose and function of the establishment of Guozijian.Using more abundant materials, it explains the difference between the current Guozijian and the past, and proves the decay of the Guozijian.

In this argument, Liu Yijing focused on demonstrating that the role of the Guozijian should be better utilized, making it a school for officials to be trained.Avoid the phenomenon of scholars ruling the country as much as possible.Let the scholars of the world understand that it is not possible to be a good official by reading the words of the sages.Of course, this was not what Liu Yijing said, it was Emperor Tianqi's own plan.

In fact, after reading Liu Yijing's memorial, Emperor Tianqi's mind became active, and an original idea was hooked again.That is to build a university in this era, a university that covers all disciplines.But this is a bit difficult, it seems that this is an opportunity!

After half a month of debate, Emperor Tianqi ordered the establishment of the Guozijian in the capital.The location is in the southern suburbs of the capital.In order to save money, Emperor Tianqi drew a royal garden and ordered people to remodel it there.

Although there were many objections, they were quickly suppressed. After all, it was proposed by the Chief Assistant University of the Cabinet and supported by Emperor Tianqi, so there is naturally no problem.In such an environment, Emperor Tianqi's policy was naturally implemented.

For the next period of time, nothing major happened.But in mid-October, Emperor Tianqi was going to Tianjin Port.The purpose is also very simple.A grand swearing-in meeting will be held here, and the new navy of the Ming Dynasty was announced on this day.

On the eighth day of October, history will remember this day. After Zheng He's voyages to the West, the Ming Dynasty finally had its own naval fleet again, a real navy capable of fighting at sea.In order to distinguish the difference from the navy.Emperor Apocalypse named this navy the Ming Dynasty navy, and of course it could also be called the navy.

Standing on the newly built pier, Emperor Tianqi was followed by all the ministers, and there were twenty new-style warships that had just been commissioned floating on the sea.The Yellow Dragon Flag of Ming Dynasty was fluttering in the wind, and each and every robust naval soldier looked ahead with a serious face.Holding a new firearm in his hand.The affection on his face was very serious.

"Qi Aiqing, Yu Aiqing, the navy of the Ming Dynasty is what it is today, thanks to General Erliang, I will reward you a lot!" Emperor Tianqi looked at Qi Jiguang and Yu Zigao on the side, and said with a smile on his face.

"Eating the king's salary and being loyal to the king are all things that a courtier should do, and the courtiers dare not take credit for it!" Qi Jin hurriedly bowed and saluted, with a respectful face on his face.

Looking at Qi Jin differently, Emperor Tianqi didn't expect Qi Jin to say such a thing, it seems that he was well prepared!Emperor Tianqi ignored Qi Jin, turned his gaze to an old man on one side, and said in a soft voice: "Shen Aiqing, I can't bear it and feel sorry for him when I am still running for the country at such an old age. But the navy needs love. Qing, Daming needs Ai Qing, and I need Ai Qing even more!"

This person was none other than the aged Shen Yourong. After such a long time of hard work, this courtier, who was already quite young, looked even older.However, unlike the last time Emperor Tianqi saw him, Shen Yourong's spirit at this time was very good, far from what he was able to do back then.

"Your Majesty, it is an honor for an old official to be able to run for His Majesty. It is an honor for an old man to see the formation of the Ming Navy in his lifetime. It is an honor for an old official to be able to participate in this great event. Cao Cao There is a saying, an old man with an ambition of a thousand miles. Although the old minister is not young, he is willing to do his best for the emperor!" Shen Yourong's face was very excited, and he spoke with full of air.

Looking at Shen Yourong with this appearance, Emperor Tianqi knew that this old minister would not die for a while.But listening to those words from the bottom of his heart, Emperor Tianqi's eyes turned red. Some people don't ask for anything in their lives. They really only hope to do something for the people and the country.These people don't care about fame and fortune, they don't care about gains and losses, and they are really the most respectable people.

"It's my good fortune to have Aiqing. Aiqing must take care of your health and serve the country loyally!" Emperor Tianqi pulled Shen Yourong and said emotionally: "Although Qi Jin and Yu Zigao have led the army for many years, after all I'm not familiar with naval battles, but I hope Aiqing can teach you more!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best!" Shen Yourong said with a quick bow.

Nodding his head, Emperor Tianqi's gaze fell on the last young man, dressed in the official uniform of a fifth-rank official, making him look very energetic.With sword eyebrows and star eyes, eyebrows like stars, this is a real handsome man.This person is Yu Zigao's senior uncle, Yu Dayou's junior junior brother, Zhang Yukun, the fifth-grade transfer envoy.

Whether it was Qi Jin, Yu Zigao, or Shen Yourong, they all admired this person very much, it can be described as full of praise.Shen Yourong even said that he is very good at arranging troops, and he is also very good at organizing and training soldiers.Slowly nodding his head, Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "Zhang Aiqing really has a good figure, which is really good."

Zhang Yukun didn't expect Emperor Tianqi to say that, his face flushed suddenly, and he said in embarrassment: "The emperor has praised you!"

Smiling and waving his hands, Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "Zhang Aiqing, I know that you have an incomparable talent, but the imperial court has its own rules for selecting talents, and I should be very clear compared to you. , I will never bury you. It is useless for me alone to know that you are talented, you have to let all the court officials and the people of the world see your talent, and I will never be stingy with high officials and rich salary, so that Aiqing will be famous in history."

Hearing the voice of Emperor Tianqi, Zhang Yukun's calm heart suddenly stirred up a little turbulence, this is what he wanted.Respectfully bowing to Emperor Tianqi, Zhang Yukun said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, all the ministers understand!"

Although the current official position is a fifth-rank transfer envoy, Zhang Yukun knew that this was a sign that Emperor Tianqi valued himself.This transshipment by yourself makes you responsible for transshipment at sea, and you don’t know what you transship by yourself.Probably won't know for a long time.I have a very special position in the navy, and this official position is just to make things more convenient for me.

Naturally, Zhang Yukun understood what Emperor Tianqi said. I believe you have talent, but talent alone is useless, you need merit.Not only for me to see, but also for everyone to see. Only in this way can I reward you and stop everyone's mouths.

Although Emperor Tianqi's words were very official, Zhang Yukun knew that this was Emperor Tianqi's comforting himself, and he didn't want him to be dissatisfied because of a fifth-rank official.This made Zhang Yukun very useful. No matter what his official position was, Emperor Tianqi valued him very much.

After appeasing all the officials, Emperor Apocalypse boarded the flagship Dragon Teng with this person, and after a visit, he conducted several test launches.After a brief sea trial, the group turned back to the pier and took them back to the capital.

In the third year of the apocalypse, neither the Tartars nor the slaves in the north made any major moves, and the court was stable.Emperor Tianqi's various reforms are also proceeding in an orderly manner. The reform of the military system in the capital was finally completed at the end of the year, and the effect has not yet been seen, except that Emperor Tianqi has to pay a large amount of military expenses every month.

The firearms factory and the Armed Forces Research Institute had the best results. Both the research and development of new firearms and their improvement have made great progress.After expanding the scale again, the production of hair-breaking guns is also on the right track. It can be said that everything is thriving.

The construction of Guowujian and Guozijian has been on the right track, because the money and food are sufficient, and the progress of the project is fast.The military division reform plan for the thirteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty has been drawn up, and now it is only an imperial decree implemented by Emperor Tianqi.However, at this time, Emperor Tianqi issued an order to Dongchang and Jinyiwei, and the content was very simple, to reorganize Jinyiwei and Dongchang.
