Ming politicians

When Su Tiancheng returned home, Zhu Shenxin's expression was very excited. Someone had already reported the affairs in the court. His elder brother Zhu Shenxuan came to the capital and became the second assistant of the cabinet. Su Tiancheng also joined the cabinet. It is no ordinary honor to become a cabinet scholar, and there are two cabinet scholars in one family. Su Tiancheng cannot stay in the capital, but Zhu Shenxuan has come to the capital, which also means that Zhu Shenxuan's family members I also want to leave Taiyuan, Shanxi, and come to the capital, so that Zhu Shenxin will have a place to walk around, and she won't be so lonely, and her children will have relatives in the capital.

Su Tiancheng was very calm. He believed that Zhu Youjian was at fault for such a situation, but it was more of trust, especially what Zhu Youjian said, that the frontier army in Liaodong and the soldiers of the Yulin Camp belonged to him. Self-restraint, it can be said that all the elite troops of Ming Dynasty were assigned to him to command, which was impossible in the past. Although he used to be the governor of Jiliao and command these troops, the previous command In fact, he was the commander of the imperial court. He mobilized a soldier himself and had to report to the imperial court. Now there is no need to report, and he can be dispatched directly. This indicates that Zhu Youjian almost handed over the country of Daming to him.It is not easy for any emperor to make such a decision, and it can be said that it is basically impossible.Zhu Youjian can make such a decision, so he can be said to be a very good emperor.

Judging from the structure of the imperial court, Zhu Shenxuan served as the second assistant of the cabinet, which indicated that he had a strong reliance and entered the cabinet himself. This was the first time that a cabinet scholar led an army to fight. It is unimaginable that there are two cabinet scholars in one family. All of this is due to the trust of the emperor, but all of this, the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, also saw it in the eyes, if it was Zhu Shenxuan and himself.If there is something slightly inappropriate, the attacks encountered will also be unprecedented.

From this perspective, both Zhu Shenxuan and him were sitting on top of the fire, so we should be extra careful in the future.

Of course, Su Tiancheng would not do the matter of commanding so many troops.This is also inappropriate. The elite troops of the Ming Dynasty are dispatched by themselves. What are the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty doing, what is the emperor doing, and what is the cabinet doing.I have entered the cabinet, but I have a little freedom, that is, the deployment of the Jiangning battalion is more convenient. As long as I think it is a suitable attack, I can deploy it and carry it out.In fact, it was also like this before, but the emperor confirmed this point.

In the end, Su Tiancheng felt that the current changes were not big, and if the emperor did this, he might have to be more cautious, because the heights were too cold, if it was because of his own inattention.It is very likely to cause disasters. Judging from the current situation, what the Ming Dynasty needs is stability and forge ahead, not internal strife. If there are countless internal strife, it will ruin the good situation.My own efforts still have no effect.

Su Tiancheng doesn't think it's a big deal to ask for perfection, the key depends on what your purpose is, it's for your personal glory and wealth.It is still for the future of the country, Su Tiancheng is not a rigid person, he will not give up his personal life because of the pursuit of a certain ideal, his purpose of doing this is to live a better life for his family on the one hand. , Another aspect, a very important aspect, is to maintain this kind of prosperity and wealth under the premise of a strong country. If the country is broken, what glory and wealth do you still have.

Adhering to this point of view, Su Tiancheng has his own bottom line in doing things, and will continue to do so.

Only an hour after Su Tiancheng returned to the mansion, Zhu Shenxuan came to visit. [

It's normal for Zhu Shenxuan to come to visit, it would be strange if Zhu Shenxuan didn't come.Besides, Zhu Shenxuan has come to the capital, and he will live in Su Tiancheng's mansion for the time being. In the capital, there is no other place to live. The emperor did not grant Zhu Shenxuan's mansion, so Zhu Shenxuan can only buy it himself. Fortunately, As a vassal king, Zhu Shenxuan had a lot of money, and he had borrowed money from Su Tiancheng, and he was rewarded. It took a while to find the mansion in the capital.

Zhu Shenxuan had a smile on his face.

After so many years, Zhu Shenxuan is still fat and fat, and he can't tell how old he is. Although he is very worried in Shaanxi, Su Tiancheng has laid a good foundation in Shaanxi. Zhu Shenxuan is like a fish in water, and he is very comfortable doing it .

Before Su Tiancheng opened his mouth, Zhu Shenxuan grabbed Su Tiancheng, walked towards the study, and came to Su Tiancheng's mansion, it was as if he had returned home.

Just entered the study, before she had time to speak, Zhu Shenxin also came in.

Zhu Shenxuan had a lot of things that he wanted to talk to Su Tiancheng alone, when he saw Zhu Shenxin came in, he didn't wait for Zhu Shenxin to speak, he spoke first.

"Sister, I'm going to buy a mansion in the capital. I'll leave this matter to you. You see, I just arrived in the capital and there are many things to do, especially in the imperial court. I don't have time to see the mansion. I have already told the housekeeper. The housekeeper will come to the capital in a few days."

Zhu Shenxin glared at Zhu Shenxuan. After so many years, Zhu Shenxin's identity has long been different. If you used to be respectful in front of Zhu Shenxuan, it is different now. The key is that Su Tiancheng is in front of Zhu Shenxuan. The status in the imperial court is different. Zhu Shenxuan was able to come to the capital and serve as the cabinet assistant, which has a lot to do with Su Tiancheng. If it weren't for Su Tiancheng's outstanding ability, which won the emperor's attention, Zhu Shenxuan would not be able to Enter the cabinet.

"Brother, I understand what you said. In fact, the butler has already visited many mansions. You are the second assistant to the cabinet now. I don't know how many people are willing to sell the mansion to you. I helped you choose one." The place is just above this street, not very far away.”

Zhu Shenxuan nodded quickly.

"No problem, as long as you look satisfied, it's fine. After the mansion is settled, the family members will move in. This matter should be done as soon as possible, and it can't be delayed, so that I don't get hung up on two ends."

After Zhu Shenxuan finished saying this, Su Tiancheng also smiled and spoke. In fact, Zhu Shenxuan was justified in being anxious. Under the current situation, Zhu Shenxuan must show his loyalty to the emperor, and he must first move his family to the capital. Come, so the emperor can rest assured.

"His Royal Highness, the matter of the mansion has been settled, and we can actually move it."

After Zhu Shenxin personally made tea for Zhu Shenxuan, she left the study.

Seeing the smug expression on Zhu Shenxuan's face, Su Tiancheng secretly shook his head and spoke quickly. [

"His Royal Highness, congratulations, you have become the second assistant of the cabinet."

"Kun Yuan, don't say that. I was able to come to the capital. This is all related to you. You captured Daishan alive in Xuanzhou and wiped out the Zhenghongqi of the Houjin Tartars. Who can speak for such credits? ah."

"His Royal Highness Jin still understands, but I'm going to say some bad words. You and I have entered the cabinet. This is the emperor's grace. You and I are in high positions, and the responsibility is even greater. I am afraid that in the future Be more careful, if you do something wrong, you may be impeached."

Zhu Shenxuan quickly became serious.

"Kun Yuan, actually, if you don't tell me, I also know about this matter. You and I entered the cabinet at the same time. In the court, we have attracted the attention of everyone. Think about it a few years ago, the vassal kings were not allowed to participate in the affairs of the court. Among them, this time I entered the cabinet, and Zhu Yousong served as the governor of Shaanxi. In the imperial court, I will pay attention."

Su Tiancheng nodded, he knew that Zhu Shenxuan was not simple in the first place, and he was well versed in the struggles within the imperial court.

"Kun Yuan, I also want to remind you that the mission is even more difficult for you to conquer abroad. Although Daishan was captured alive, the Houjin Tartar has not yet been injured, and his strength is still strong. I am afraid that you have become the Houjin Tartar You must be careful in the future, I have a few guards by my side, they are highly skilled, when you leave the capital, take them with you."

Su Tiancheng practiced waving his hands.

"That's not acceptable. Those guards are there to protect you. How can you follow me?"

"You don't want to resign. These guards are absolutely trustworthy. I also know that the guards around me in the past were all good and bad. After years of rectification, this time I came to the capital. Some guards may I'm leaving, especially the spies from Dongchang and Jinyiwei, they can't be by my side anymore, your safety is the most important thing for our family, so there must be no accidents, I have entrusted these guards, they I will protect you with my life."

Su Tiancheng nodded and agreed. In fact, he was also thinking about this matter. It was not enough for Wang Dazhi to always be by his side. He had to leave. At least he needed to give Wang Dazhi a space to develop independently. This time Zhu Shen Xuan gave himself a few guards and asked Wang Dazhi to train them well. When the conditions were ripe, he let Wang Dazhi lead the army to fight alone.

Zhu Shenxin prepared a banquet.

This time drinking, Zhu Shenxin did not interfere, and personally toasted Zhu Shenxuan.

Zhu Shenxuan didn't drink as much as Su Tiancheng did, and was quite drunk.

After sending Zhu Shenxuan to the room to rest, Zhu Shenxin told Su Tiancheng that everything in the mansion was fine, so don't worry, since her elder brother Zhu Shenxuan's family members came to the capital, she would have a place to move around.

Su Tiancheng can decide many things on his own, but he can't completely make decisions about his own affairs. The best way is to let Zhu Shenxin be by his side, but after he became a cabinet scholar, this situation is even more serious It is unlikely to happen, Zhu Shenxin must stay in the capital, so that the emperor and the court can rest assured. As for Chen Yuanyuan, he will also stay in the capital for the time being. In the next time, his main duty is to conquer, so he can stay in the capital. I don't have much time in the state, and I can only figure out a solution slowly according to the development of the situation at home. (to be continued...)
