Two-fifty-two garrison soldiers ride out of Xiaoqiang (3)
When Zhu Cixuan received the Guerrilla Battalion Military News, he had already left Laizhou. When he learned about Gao Jie's death, he cared more about Li Chengdong. If he remembered correctly, this person first followed the thief, then surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, and then surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and finally opposed the Qing Dynasty... It really brought the capricious behavior of this era to the extreme.
Zhu Cilang has no moral integrity, and to put it bluntly, he is a pragmatist. As long as he has the ability and is willing to follow the rules he set, even those who bully Jin and steal sister-in-law will not be able to accept it. Even if the Han Dynasty like Wu Sangui and Sanshun King were willing to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, no matter what dirty thoughts he had in his heart, he could still give him a good end to the end of the civil war... But Li Chengdong, the executioner who slaughtered Jiading for the three-slaughter of the Manchu master, was really too heavy-mouthed.
In this time and space, Li Chengdong has not committed such a heinous crime yet. Can he be convicted of it?
Zhu Cilang finally couldn't overcome the hurdle in his heart and said, "This kind of unrighteous person who killed the commander in the last battle is really disgusting. I thought that he had surrendered in time and was considered as a safeguarding my Eastern Palace soldiers, so let him take people to mine. The other rewards and punishments that the Luo tribe requested should be approved. Let them go to the battle summary as soon as possible and submit them to the General Staff Department for publication and distribution of various bureaus. The spoils obtained will be entered into the Xuzhou treasury and recorded and submitted to the Xuzhou Prefecture."
The Military Command soon transmitted Zhu Cixuan's order.
Zhu Cixuan returned to the conference room only. There was only one person sitting in the table. It was Li Banghua, the left censor of the Ming Censorate.
As an important minister of the Chongzhen Dynasty, Li Banghua experienced too many ups and downs, leaving deep footprints both locally and centrally. Nowadays, scholars come to join the emperor every day, and many are Li Banghua's disciples. However, this old minister is too old. After the upheaval of Jiashen, he is full of white hair and his steps are dim.
Today, Li Banghua came to meet Zhu Cilang to discuss retirement.
Zhu Cixuan gave priority to military affairs, and then returned to the reception room and had already made some conspiracy. From his personal outlook on life, the best destination for life is to be able to end his life at work. From a practical perspective, in this period of lack of human resources, it is better to die of exhaustion in the office than to let capable ministers who are loyal to him die of dying at home.
He looked at Li Banghua and said, "I really don't want to let Mr. Go back. Regarding my personal relationship, Mr. Guy was very instructive when I first left the palace, so that my son could use people to listen to things and not be deceived. This is a great kindness."
"Mr. Lun Gong, Mr. Lun has experienced local affairs, discipline, military affairs, and masters. He is really a rare national important official." Zhu Cixuan sighed and said, "I think Mr. Lun is still healthy and bright, so how can he bear to retire?"
"Life is rare in seventy years. The old minister is now 70 years old, and it is also the period of resignation in all dynasties. He dare not be greedy for power." Li Banghua said.
Zhu Cixuan immediately said, "I am greedy for power? Where does this start? Now that the country is in a state of decline and the capital of Shen Jing is in decline. If Mr. Wang had not been loyal to the heart of great loyalty, how could he stay in the court?"
Li Banghua smiled bitterly and said, "The old minister is really unbearable to drive..."
"Jiang Shang is 80 years old and is only 70 years old... Oh! By the way!" Zhu Cilang stood up with his hands and said, "Sir, it is not advisable to run around. That's it. I was just about to set up a separate department to gather the main policies of the court, and to publish the important matters of various places in one piece, and to coordinate the world, and to be coordinated by others. Mr. deserves this job."
"Your Highness," Li Banghua was slightly surprised: "Isn't this just the report from Tongmatsu and Di?"
Zhu Cixuan smiled and said, "In fact, I just want to read this job from the Tongzheng Department, not called the official newspaper, but only called the "Huangming News". In the future, the Yintai will only accept internal and external memorials. In short, it will only enter but not leave."
The origin of the divine newspaper can be traced back to the early Western Han Dynasty. There was a carved paper in the Tang Dynasty, and the distribution time was fixed during the Song Dynasty. The distribution of the divine newspaper in the Ming Dynasty was under the responsibility of the Tongzheng Envoy Department. In the 11th year of Chongzhen, movable type printing began. Although the quality was much worse than that of the carved paper in the carved paper, it was better to print it in time.
As his mouthpiece, Zhu Cilang certainly cannot allow others to get involved. As long as the "Huangming News" can open up the market, establish the status of the public opinion community, and become a recognized trend of the court, no matter how the emperor makes, he will not be able to suppress the sound from the East Palace, nor will he weaken the influence of the East Palace in Shilin.
"And the source of the newspaper is too narrow," Zhu Ciyang said, "It only focuses on political affairs, and it is all determined by the court. The "Notice" I want to see requires voices from all walks of life, such as being so beautiful, and even being able to resist disputes. Therefore, it is not suitable for the Tongzheng Department to be published."
Li Bang was a mature Chinese, not to mention that Jiangnan did not have such private houses. In the Wanli period, some people wanted to use words to confuse people's hearts and influence the candidates of the country. He had already realized that he was grateful to the crown prince for his trust in him, but he really couldn't think of anyone who could replace him.
It’s not that Wu Yan and others lack the talents, but that the “Huangming Bulletin” is the most important thing. How to make this “Guangling” the mouthpiece of the crown prince rather than a weapon of party struggle is the fundamental requirement for choosing the person in charge.
Li Banghua’s biggest advantage is: he takes a team early and does not form a clique.
Then he was proficient in government affairs and military affairs in the north and south. With him in charge, there was no need to worry about the pedantic scholar's imagination in the "Notice".
Zhu Cixuan looked at Li Banghua so sincerely, which really made the old minister unable to refuse, so he could only say, "If this is the case, the old minister will do it. Once your highness has a talented man, the old minister will abdicate and give way to the wise."
"You have to train me for me." Zhu Cilang smiled and then said, "Sir, how should this yamen be named?"
Li Banghua's turbid eyes closed slightly, and after two long breaths, he said: "Your Highness, you may be the yamen."
"I hope you can hear the great views of Mr. Zhu Cixuan."
Li Banghua coughed lightly: "Since the Song Dynasty, private newspapers have flooded. After the Wanli Dynasty, there were many private newspaper offices in Jiangnan. After the "Breaking News" was popular, and it is inevitable that those who were effective were frowning. If they were left alone, those who slandered the king and father had a more powerful weapon. The old minister thought that a department should be established under the Censorate to supervise the newspaper industry, keep the good ones, and remove the evil ones. As for the "Huangming News", it can be imitated by Liudian and the establishment of the Industrial Academy, and it can be used as a private business of Tianjia. It can be convenient and profitable."
When Zhu Cixuan heard this, he thought that this was one step closer than his own idea. As expected, he looked at the whole country and discussed for a long time. He was worthy of being an important official of the court. In contrast, his own situation of wanting to eat alone was a bit narrow.
"Sir, this is especially true!" Zhu Cixuan praised: "It can be named the Cultural Management Department, and all newspapers and books in the country are subject to their supervision. You have to worry more about this matter, and you should prepare your subordinates and follow your convenience."
"Yes." Li Banghua slowly stood up and said goodbye, but he thought to himself: I originally wanted to take a break and return home, but I had such an errand. Who else can I use in my family?
Zhu Cilang sent Li Banghua out of the room all the way, but after Li Banghua's repeated farewells, he finally did not send the second door.
Zhu Cilang stood at the door and looked at it for a while, and waited until Li Banghua's figure passed the corner before turning back to the house.
Liu Ruoyu waited in the staff room outside for a long time, and finally waited for this opportunity. He rushed to chase after the next person before the crown prince summoned him and said, "Your Highness, I have something to do to report to Your Highness."
Zhu Cixuan stopped, turned to Liu Ruoyu, and smiled and said, "What urgent matter is Liu Ban?"
Liu Ruoyu breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself that the crown prince was in a good mood and was just right to talk about this. He stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, Liu Si was very disrespectful in front of the imperial court. After the empresses returned to the palace, they cried for a long time. Your Highness did not comfort him, and just hurried to Tai'an Prefecture, for fear that something was wrong."
Zhu Cilang nodded slightly and said, "My mother and the Queen Mother are both people who are in the world, and they should regard the people in the world as their children. A son who is ignorant and presumptuous is nothing special."
"Your Highness, the Tian family has its own dignity, how can we indulge it?" The folds on Liu Ruoyu's face gathered together.
