.,

When Liu Jian heard this, he fell silent.

He is very clear... the imperial court has issued a decree, and local officials are determined to disturb the people in order to complete it.

But there is no way.

When the emperor went to sea, he took countless ministers and followers, but at the same time he also took away a large number of imperial guards and Beijing camps.

Originally, there was still the First Army in the capital, and this army was brave and good at fighting. With it, it was enough to guarantee the safety of the capital in this peaceful season.

But the First Army was also disbanded.

Only a group of military officers without soldiers were left, and they were still drawing up drill plans and studying combat methods all day long.

If the imperial court does not recruit a group of soldiers, the capital will fall into an embarrassing situation with no soldiers to use. At that time, if someone has a heart to spy on the capital, troubles will inevitably occur.

So... Recruiting new recruits is now a top priority.

As for the possible consequences, which may even lead to complaints, Liu Jian can only choose the lesser of the harm!

Liu Jian heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Follow the power urgently. In fact... If the First Army hadn't been dismissed, there was no need to rush this matter. It's a pity that His Majesty and Duke Qi are both quick-tempered."

As he said that, he shook his head, still unable to understand... how such a good national policy turned out to be like a child's play in the end.

But what can be done, His Majesty and Duke Qi are still good in some aspects, for example, their New Deal... solved the difficult problems of the court.

After all, Liu Jian was the one who took the overall situation into consideration, so he said: "Here in the Ministry of War, we must be prepared for a rainy day, and we must not let the subordinates make too much trouble, otherwise the hearts of the people will be lost, and the gain will not be worth the loss."

Wang Shouren said sternly: "The lower officials have ordered all the military preparations to send personnel to inspect the various prefectures, in order to prevent problems before they happen."

Liu Jian's face was milder, and he smiled a little and said, "That's very good."

After that, the three of them didn't seem to be in the mood to speak anymore, and they kept silent.

But at this time, someone outside said: "Your Majesty is here."

The three of Liu Jian were taken aback for a moment, then quickly got up and went out to pick him up.

But Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan had already entered one after the other!

So Liu Jian and the three hurriedly saluted again.

Zhu Houzhao put his hands behind his back, glanced at Wang Shouren, and said, "Why, is there any news from the Ministry of War?"

Zhu Houzhao was particularly concerned about the matter of recruiting soldiers. He had... come to inquire about this matter several times, but Zhu Houzhao was already full of energy, and he was not like the emperor who asked about trivial matters one by one, ordinary memorials and tickets. All the plans were handed over to the Supervisor of Ceremonies for approval, but regarding the matters he cared about, he held on tightly and refused to relax for a moment.

Fang Jifan praised the emperor for grasping the big and letting go of the small.

Of course...Liu Jian and others secretly complained in their hearts that the new emperor is far inferior to the previous emperor, and they are gradually showing signs of a 'faint emperor'.

Liu Jian said: "There is no news yet, and the decree has only been issued for three days. It may take some time for the local...to recruit new soldiers."

"It stands to reason that there should be some news from the nearby counties." Zhu Houzhao blew his beard and stared, and then said: "What does the Ministry of War do? It's not dedicated at all."

Wang Shouren said: "Your Majesty, there are regulations for everything, and every step must be done without omissions. This is not a matter of inattentiveness, but the fact that the government offices everywhere must follow the rules. Only in this way can they be orderly. Preface. Otherwise...everything depends on the will, and the matters that His Majesty cares about are all concerned from top to bottom, so what about the things that His Majesty doesn't care about?"

Zhu Houzhao stared: "..."

Wang Shouren has always been upright, and he doesn't care about other people's feelings when he speaks.

Zhu Houzhao scolded him for not caring, and he began to question without hesitation.

Speaking of reasoning, Zhu Houzhao is no match for him.

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help saying in his heart, okay, you eat the inside and outside of the food.

Fang Jifan took a look at Zhu Houzhao, but he was the first to attack, and said sternly to Wang Shouren: "Boan's words are wrong. Your Majesty is concerned. Shouldn't a courtier pay extra attention? Your Majesty said something to you, you How dare you talk back, tomorrow, are you going to deceive your master and destroy your ancestors? You bastard!"

After cursing, he said to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty...in fact...with the conscience of the minister, what Wang Bo'an said is not without reason. The imperial court has its own regulations. These are the rules. If it is messed up, even today I took a shortcut, but there will be endless troubles in the future. Your Majesty is a sage, so he is naturally aware of every detail. Even if he violates some rules, it will not be a big problem. But you think, Your Majesty, all the emperors of Ming Dynasty will be like His Majesty in the future. Are they so wise? Their IQ may not be as good as His Majesty's in the future, if they don't follow the rules, then the court will definitely be in chaos."

Zhu Houzhao's mood was probably a roller coaster, with moments of joy and resentment. After thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't figure out who Fang Jifan was helping.

So he simply laughed, and turned to a topic that he valued the most, saying: "I don't care, I'm waiting for you to pay the military expenses of three million taels of silver. But... the stereotypes against military men in the market are indeed true. It makes me worry, and I want the horse to run away, and I want the horse not to eat grass, while swearing at others, despising others, and being mean to others, and expecting that when foreign enemies come, I will fight for you, bleed for you, and make them abandon their own. Life. Is there such a reason in this world? If I were those soldiers, I would have to turn against the dog's court. I just need to buy people's hearts in the army first, and then...find a few confidantes and bury them in the ground There is a stone, engraved on the stone are the words "God has no way, change dynasties, treat people"

When they were dug out, they began to create rumors. While taking advantage of everyone's anger, they deliberately provoked the military officers. The military officers must be terrified. To quell these rumors, it is necessary to find some soldiers to perform operations. This operation is even more resentful. At this time, we Stand up again, cut off the military officer's head, shouted loudly, follow me to have meat to eat, so... everything will come to fruition. "

These words... Liu Jian and Li Dongyang were dumbfounded.

Fang Jifan said annoyedly: "If this is the case, they are just rogues. Chaos is chaos, but it is not enough to become a force."

Zhu Houzhao nodded with his chin resting on his head: "Sure enough, the old Fang has reached the most important point. On the contrary, it is the opposite, but it is still far away from success. Therefore, the first thing to do is to gather a group of backbones to make the chaotic army They can order and prohibit, but they must not be allowed to slaughter the people everywhere. Other than that, they will post a list everywhere, calm the people everywhere, and tell the people that they only punish the tyrants and gentry who are domineering and domineering on weekdays, and will not disturb the people. Furthermore, if there are officials The army came to suppress..."

"Your Majesty..." Liu Jian seemed to be unable to bear it anymore, and hurriedly said: "Just now His Majesty mentioned that it concerns the people of the world, and the prejudice against military households."

"Yes, that's what I was talking about just now..." Zhu Houzhao sighed: "If this serious problem is not resolved, I will have trouble sleeping and eating. I discussed it with the Hanlin waiting for an edict, but found that there is nothing to do at the moment. Why? On the one hand, the court is of course The military households can be given more generous treatment, and these prejudices can be slowly eliminated, but there are so many military households, the more the court can give, the more it can give, which just increases the burden on the common people. You can’t give it, and you can’t give it. It's a dilemma."

Zhu Houzhao then said again: "Don't you think there is nothing you can do? Come on, sit down, brainstorm, and think of some way."

Zhu Houzhao loved riding and shooting. What he wanted to do was Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Therefore, he was the one who was most dissatisfied with the status quo. When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, how many people contributed to the army and traveled around for the court, and I don’t know how many good families. Take pride in being a soldier.

But in Daming, such prejudices, not to mention that he was a Han Wu, don't fail, and eventually became Sui Yangdi.

Liu Jian and the others had wry smiles on their faces, but they were helpless, so let's discuss it!

…………

A memorial from Linzi Mansion in Shandong was sent to the Ministry of War first.

This is the report sent by Shandong Zhengbing Bingbei Road.

The report was delivered, but the hall official who received the report became suspicious.

Shandong straightened out its military preparations?

Written on the cover is the words 'report to Linzi for recruiting soldiers'.

This Linzi Mansion, there is news so soon?

But logically speaking, the decree only took a few days, and within a few days, when it was delivered to Linzi, one day had passed, and the time available for recruiting soldiers was at most two days, or even less.

In the past two days, recruit a ghost soldier?

If there is no ten days and half a month, logically speaking, there will be no news.

After all... the government first needs to post a list to inform, and after that, the officers will go to the countryside to Latin, and come and go... It takes time the most. If there is resistance in the local area, many troubles will inevitably arise. There are eyebrows.

The official thought to himself, could something have happened?

Immediately, he slowly opened the report, tore off the wax, took the report inside, checked the seal of rectifying military preparations, confirmed it was correct, and then... opened it...

The official was stunned!

Linzi prefecture recruited new recruits. In one and a half days, there were more than 3,700 people who joined the army, and 400 people were actually recruited.

In a day and a half, more than 3,000 people joined the army?

You know... these are all young men of the right age.

A government recruited roughly 300 to 500 newcomers, but the number of people who joined the army was as high as ten times the actual number recruited.

Is this... crazy?

I've heard of people rushing to the imperial examination to become an official, but I've never seen someone rushing to become a soldier.

Such a thing is really unbelievable, so...

"Come here, come here, check it out, check it out carefully, whether this memorial is true or not."

After a while, an old clerk who has been dealing with copybooks and official documents for many years came, checked the sealant, official documents, words, and paper, and finally looked at the official very firmly and said: "Shangguan, this official document , It came from Shandong to rectify the army and prepare the road, there is no falsehood, the officials even compared their official documents before, and the official documents should all come from the same official, so it can be seen... this can no longer be true.
