Chapter four hundred and twentieth trail
In the end, the emperor did not see the envoy of the Mughal Kingdom waiting in Suzhou Guards, but wrote a letter by the chief minister of the cabinet.
Zhang Juzheng was very busy. He had to arrange the war in the north, and he was worried about the importance of the domestic baggage. According to Chen Mu's suggestion in the early years, there were also big and small problems, not to mention that there were old hemorrhoids on his butt that made him unable to sit still, so he had no time to care about the complaints of the despicable king.
In Zhang Juzheng's eyes, the world is extremely complex and very simple. The complex thing is that domestic things are difficult to handle, and the simple thing is that as long as domestic things are done well, all the problems encountered overseas will be solved.
"The world is invincible in the Ming Dynasty" does not hold true, but if you add these six words "as long as you don't explode yourself", it will be true, but if it is difficult, it will be difficult, so how can the Ming Dynasty not explode yourself.
One after another, the important matters were placed on Zhang Juzheng's desk. The Mughal Akba was wherever he went. Zhang Juzheng even believed that even if he and the emperor did not reply to Akba, there would be no consequences. There was a saying - come over the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau!
Therefore, Zhang Juzheng's meaning was basically the same as the emperor's, but he just wrote a document to Mughal with a very calm attitude. Before the letter was sent out, the Ministry of Rites was already preparing the imperial edicts, edicts and seals needed to be named king.
In their opinion, a small country farther than Samarkand emerged from somewhere, traveling thousands of miles to teleport the letter of the country. It was fortunate to be known to the emperor. As soon as the emperor replied, the king immediately came over to accept the enthronement... Isn't this a foregone conclusion?
Compared to this, Zhang Juzheng wanted to find a good doctor to kill the hemorrhoids on his butt, but Chen Mu took the best doctors in the world to the East Asia. The chief minister of the Empire was embarrassed to write a letter to ask Chen Mu to send the best doctor back to give him a knife to his butt.
The domestic emphasis on railways is no less than that of Chen Mu of the East. The young and impatient emperor even learned that the East Asian ministers would experiment with railways that meet the specifications in Asia, and they were still anxious to ask the Beiyang Yamen to set the specifications of the railways as soon as possible.
Ye Mengxiong is not as careful as Chen Mu, because he has various models of Huode Star Lord at hand. He only needs to pave a short distance and let Huode Star Lord run on it with a cart to start the experiment.
The results of the experiment ended with Ye Mengxiong cutting down 60% of the budget required for railway construction.
All of this was ordered by the emperor to go north to Beijing Yu Shaoyu, who traveled with him in total. He took a boat to the Beiyang Military Mansion for several days, then turned to the canal boat and walked to Tongzhou to wait until the emperor summoned him, as if the news of Tsinghua Park was brought by eunuchs.
None of them has a decent background. The most knowledgeable person is just a scholar, and of course the lowest is also a child. In other words, they all have participated in the imperial examination and passed the county examination and the prefecture examination, which is nothing more than the difference between the quality of the grades.
Their best-known identity is the family raised by the Eastern Marshal.
The main line of Emperor Wanli's growth was almost to accept Chen Mu's "heritage". He started by catching all the treasures of the Chen family mansion in Nanyang Guard into the Forbidden City. He went further and further on this road, "Tao Te Ching", military training ideas, and even the emperor thought about bringing Xiao Hailong into the palace to play for two days, but Chen Hailong was too young and had to give up.
It turns out that having a too domineering little fan may not be a good thing.
Now, the emperor finally got his mind to this group of families.
Yu Shaoyu had a normal mentality all the way to Beiyang, but when they arrived in Tongzhou, no one of the seven people could calm down, and they were all trembling... If you were to be the first to be a gold medal, win the palace examination, and you would be proud to meet the emperor when you met, but writing some words is just a side-by-side. How can you be worthy of the emperor's summons?
No one was in a clear mind, but fortunately the emperor did not intend to meet too many people. Seven people summoned Yu Shaoyu and entered Tsinghua University, which made the other six people feel a little relaxed.
Along the way, the eunuch who led the way asked Yu Shao Yu'er to teach him the etiquette of worshiping the emperor, but these etiquettes were useless in the end.
Because when he entered Tsinghua Park, everyone was busy looking for the emperor.
There is no on the boat, nor on the shore.
Finally, people found the emperor next to the steamboat in the lake. The sky was already cold in September. The emperor fell into the water on the boat. Then he swam with the opportunity to cover up the embarrassment. While swimming, he watched the guards and eunuchs eager to turn Tsinghua Park upside down, until his calves cramped, and then he couldn't help but scream.
The emperor he saw was beautiful and his clothes were covered with a long oriental style blanket, sitting by the willow embankment.
Yu Shaoyu's focus is amazing, and he pays more attention to the emperor's figure.
This may be because the emperor gave him a familiar feeling - the feeling of the Nanyang Banner Army.
The emperor's figure was the same as most flag soldiers that Yu Shaoyu saw in Nanyang. His limbs were well-proportioned, his chest and abdomen were the same, his arms were strong, and his thighs were thick. This was the standard infantry figure that could only be obtained by persistent military training and good food supply. Except for the emperor who was not a round buzz or bald head, the only difference between the emperor and the flag soldiers was that he was taller and had a rich and big face.
Before going to sea, the Dongyang Banner Army placed their hair in Jiguo Tower, and the Nanyang Banner Army did not receive such treatment. A tropical epidemic broke out between the Baigu flag troops stationed in Myanmar in Baigu, two years ago. After that, the Nanyang Banner Army had to be forced to repair and cut hair every month. Each thousand households had a physical examination every ten days.
In fact, the emperor has always been a little baby fat, so in Chen Mu's memory, Xiao Wanli has a round face. This face shape will make him look fat if he has a little bit of flesh.
If he had been in love with the sweet food room since childhood, he often had to develop three people in the Qianqing Palace alone, then Wanli's gentleman should be a slightly fat person with a big face, a double chin and a round belly.
However, the emperor who can cover his armor and travel 60 miles a day has gradually become square-faced. In fact, Wanli is not tall, and he is just a mediocre person. However, he is well-nutrition, strong in body, and straight bones on his neck, spine and back, which makes Yu Shaoyu feel like a majestic husband.
"I'll give up on the common etiquette. I don't look like a majesty today. You can find a place to sit." Wanli raised his hand to wipe away the water stains on his face, and handed them to Wang An beside him with his hair and a hair towel, and said, "I have read the letter from Beiyang Ye Gong and said, "I have read the letter from you and said that I will try to repair the 100-mile railway from Dagukou to Tianjin Wei first, and cut the cost by 60%. Why?"
The emperor seemed not very satisfied with spending less money.
There is no way, the cost calculated by Xu Guangqi is not high. The iron used to build rails is out from the Haojingguan Gate and is uniformly manufactured at Nanyang Sanitary Port. Cement also comes from the Nanyang Military Palace and ships it to Tianjin. The construction of manpower is from the guards along the canal and recruiting local people. At least the section from Dagukou to Tongzhou is not expensive for the empire.
Even if the construction is slower, for Emperor Wanli, as long as he does not build the money in his hands in the past few years, the impact of the construction of this railway on the empire's finances will be the same as if it had not been repaired.
It's already like this. Ye Mengxiong is still deducting labor costs. So what did you build?
The emperor had a big opinion on this matter: "The Beiyang Military Office does not have to think about saving money. It is what the Ministry of Revenue wants to do, not him. I want him to ensure that this road can run the fire in the future, and can send the baggage to me to Tongzhou, to Qingshankou, or even to Wulianghai to strengthen my territory forever."
