"Then we must start from the local area, make practical results, and speak with things. Shandong's cocoon silk sold well in Liaodong and made great profits. Therefore, the barren mountains that were once unwelcome have now become a scramble for everyone to compete for.

In Baoshan, silkworm breeding experts in the Craftsman School are also very popular with the people.”

Brother Shou was fascinated by the hearing, and his face gradually turned serious. He suddenly chuckled and sighed: "Shen Er, I asked you to go to Jinan Prefecture to participate in politics, and you said that Dengzhou could not be abandoned.

hand."

He raised his eyebrows, "Later you went to Jinan, didn't Dengzhou get better and better? Now he said he can't live without Shandong."

Hearing Shou Ge's tone relaxed, Shen Rui closed his hands and smiled and said, "It's not Dengzhou, Shandong cannot be separated from his ministers, but his ministers are narrow-minded and cannot be left Shandong."

Brother Shou walked around the hall, stood beside Shen Rui, tilted his head and asked him, "You know Liang Chu's note. At this time, you ask for it, you are not afraid that I will tell you, I

Want a Henan that is as prosperous as Nanzhili?"

Shen Rui looked back at Shou Ge and smiled bitterly, "What's the use of being afraid of? I'm afraid that Liang Ge Lao overestimated me with his old impression, and I have no ability to reverse the situation. Nowadays, even if we want to provide disaster relief, we have to do so.

Heavy troops accompany him to prevent the bandits from robbing food and grass. I also thought that in Shandong, I could temporarily absorb some refugees, wait for the Henan region to stabilize, and then send them back home. As for the local land in Henan, they can be reclaimed first..."

Before he finished speaking, Shou Ge had already raised his hand to interrupt and said, "I plan to set up a new Henan general and let Jiang He go over to quell the rebellious bandits."

During these days, Jiang He and Shen Rui were dealing with the house search together, and he knew that the young emperor wanted to promote Jiang He. But he thought that Zhang Hui had returned to Beijing from Liaodong to serve as the commander, and Shouge would send Jiang He to Liaodong.

But I didn't expect to use him in Henan.

Jiang He once followed his father to guard Liaodong and Huguang. He was a good player in suppressing bandits, but he was suitable for Henan.

"There are not only bandits in Henan." Shou Ge's smile disappeared and he said in a deep voice: "You know what those vassals think, and Zheng's vassal... and the south."

The young emperor had a cold look in his eyes, and his tone was extremely cold. "Henan is so chaotic, they will inevitably add fuel to the fire. If there is still, the work of the south side must be indispensable. I heard that his son was on the way north. Along the way..."

Shen Ruizhi was talking about King Ning, which was also his hidden worries. Once the emperor's heir landed, King Ning's rebellion would be near.

"I don't hide it from you. I originally wanted to keep you in the Ministry of Works." Brother Shou patted Shen Rui's shoulder and said, "However, what you said is reasonable. In Beijing, I want to push those water conservancy and agricultural machinery, and the local area will not move.

It's in vain. You really have to do it more in the local area."

"Now, I need not only a capable minister to handle the disaster relief for me in Henan, but also a sensible person to prepare the Henan vassals and guard Henan." He turned his tone, his eyes were bright, and he looked at Shen Rui and said, "

This trip is more dangerous than going to Shandong. Shen Rui, do you dare to go?"

The emperor has said this, can he not dare?

In fact, Shen Rui had already expected this situation and had discussed some solutions to solve the Henan problem with Shen Ying and Zhang Hui.

But he was not without emotion. Just two months ago, he was discussing with his staff how to promote Henan Qingzhang, bring Henan grain into Shandong, and set up a Guanzhuang at the junction of Shandong and Henan to absorb Henan labor. He was thinking about using Henan to create Shandong.

Now... I need to have blood transfusions in Shandong to help Henan.

Of course, his original wish was to build Henan into a large granary for the Ming Dynasty.

In any case, it is better than staying in Beijing and being caught between various forces.

Shen Rui did not dodge and met Shou Ge's gaze and said, "Since the emperor attaches importance to his ministers, I am willing to try it out."

When Brother Shou saw that he was not afraid at all, he couldn't help but be happy. He patted his shoulder hard and said, "What a Shen Er! I'm not wrong with you!"

He also said, "You are my right-hand man, how can I let you take risks? Now, you are the Minister of Rites, the Governor of Henan and Shandong, the general manager of military affairs, and the Prime Minister for disaster relief. He appointed Gao Wenhu as the general and Jiang He

The vanguard of this general, leading three thousand troops to Henan to suppress bandits, and follow the way to protect you as soon as possible."

Shen Rui was mentally prepared for promotion, but it was originally just a Shandong governor to Henan governor. I didn’t expect it to be a governor! And he was a governor, giving him great authority!

"Pervise the world and comfort the military and civilians." The governor can coordinate with the Administrative Office, the Censorate Office, and the Commander Office, and the Commander Office to handle local military and political affairs directly. This is a Tai Sui to the local officials in Henan and Shandong.

Shen Rui is not the first to do such a general military service across provinces. Previously, the Minister of Justice Hong Zhong was the general military service in Huguang, Shaanxi, Henan, Sichuan, etc., and the Prime Minister Wuchang and other governments.

Later, Shaanxi's military affairs were under Yang Yiqing's control, and now Henan is stripped out and handed over to Shen Rui.

What makes Shen Rui special is that his official position in Beijing, the Minister of Rites, is also able to manage the affairs of the clan!

Even if you manage military affairs, you can dispatch the military generals of the local garrison. Gao Wenhu, an old acquaintance, took three thousand soldiers and could listen to his orders. This not only guaranteed his personal safety to the greatest extent, but also forged him into a squad. A sharp sword to deal with Henan vassals and the Ning King who was trying to go north.

In any case, this result was much better than Shen Rui expected, and he sincerely thanked him.

Because he mentioned King Ning, Shen Rui talked about all the things he had done during his job, and then mentioned Zhang Liang's affairs as a report.

When Shou Ge heard those private property of Ningfan, he kept sneering. He only raised his eyebrows in surprise when he heard Zhang Liang's name.

However, this person's focus was a little offside. He didn't care whether Zhang Liang was connected to the vassal state. Instead, he smacked his lips and said, "It's strange. Chen Lin, Mr. Xie's grandson, did not move, but Zhang Liang's other words. The grandson-in-law danced happily.”

Shen Rui...moly put his head aside, he didn't know what expression he should have.

Brother Shou still had the tone of teasing and said carelessly: "Mr. Xie should be the time to retire, but since Zhang Liang wants to find an elder to protect him, then let his father-in-law return to Beijing."

Shen Rui couldn't help but look at Brother Shou seriously to confirm whether he was a joke or...

But he saw Brother Shou slowly pointing at him and said, "Since you refuse to go to the Ministry of Works, then let Chen Li return to Beijing and become the Minister of Works."

Shen Rui was stunned for a while until Brother Shou laughed and said that he did not make jokes, which was not a joke. Only then did he react and thank God again.

This news was even more surprising than making him a governor!

Wang Hua and Yang Tinghe had talked to him about the candidates for the six ministers and ministers, but no one of them thought they could go to Shen Li.

I thought that because of Xie Qian, I was afraid that Chen Li would not return to Beijing for 10 or 20 years. This was a surprise, this was Jingtang!

The ability to meditate can also bear the burden of the Minister of Works. Although he is not as proficient in engineering as Li Li, he has accumulated enough experience in the local area over the years to make a difference.

After Chen Li entered Beijing, if the Xie family had only left his disciples and old officials, they would only join him, and Zhang Liang would have something to do.

There was Chen Li, the old Taishan, who looked at Zhang Liang, was afraid that Zhang Liang would not dare to do anything for King Ning easily. If there was a real possibility, Chen Li could also get rid of Zhang Liang for his daughter and for his separation.

From which aspect, it is a great joy for the Shen family!

"The Chenliang really managed Huguang well." Shou Ge commented, "I have read the memorandum, but he has used a lot of your Shandong methods."

Shen Rui smiled and said that the two brothers have always had letters and communicated with each other after they had good experiences and practices.

Huguang also suffered disasters before, and bandits were rampant, but in fact they were not much better than Henan at this moment. With the precedent of Shenli, Shen Rui also had more confidence in Henan.

Since we have received relief from Henan, we have to "bargain" with Shou Ge.

Shen Rui was responsible for judging matters and knew clearly how much money was deposited, so he naturally had to ask for more disaster relief funds for Henan.

Shandong was mainly personnel transfers. Shouge responded to Shen Rui's recommendation and promoted Laizhou Prefect Li Yan to the Shandong Provincial Administrator to the left-level political officer, and transferred Dengzhou Prefect Ding Huanzhi to the Yanzhou Prefect (Yanzhou and Henan are adjacent to Henan). Lin Fu, the governor of Dengzhou, was the governor of Dengzhou.

In this way, it will not only ensure that the tone of Shandong's sea trade will be unshakable, but also facilitate communication with Henan.

Shen Rui hesitated and said, "I still want to ask the emperor for someone... I personally think that if this person can do his part in Henan's water conservancy project, he will achieve twice the result with half the effort in running Henan."

Brother Shou raised his eyebrows and said, "Who do you see the Ministry of Works? Your clan brother hasn't taken over the Ministry of Works yet, so you can poach the straits first." He said that, laughing.

Shen Rui couldn't laugh, and he whispered: "I know that Lord Li is afraid of being a serious crime, but he is a talent in water conservancy and construction. I heard that during the Chenghua period, Lord Li opened up the disaster relief efforts in Shanxi at the same time

The canal saved thousands of acres of fertile land, and its political achievements were remarkable..."

Brother Shou suddenly lowered his face and interrupted him coldly, "Didn't Zhang tell you clearly yesterday?"

Of course he said that. Shen Rui pursed his lips.

Zhang Hui sighed at that time, if Li Wu was in his hands, he would not come to send a letter to Shen Rui. It was because the emperor personally asked about Li Wu and was also imprisoned in the prison of the former Neijian Factory, and everyone wanted to avoid it.

Don't touch your hands.

Shen Rui is not a saint, and he doesn’t have the heart to save all living beings, but he is really scarce with technical talents, so he can’t help but he can’t help but sacrifice his talents. He is not only a pity for Li Jue, a water conservancy talent, but also wants to protect Li Yanqing, a military equipment genius!

In the coming era of hot weapons, we really need technical talents like Li Yanqing who have ideas and hands-on skills.

Now that he wants to manage Henan, water conservancy is also an obstacle that cannot be avoided.

It is the stage when the Yellow River seizes the Huai River and enters the sea, floods are frequent and experts need to deal with them. In recent years, droughts in some prefectures and counties in Henan require new farmland irrigation projects to solve.

Li Liu, he really wants to fight for it.

Shen Rui took a deep breath and said, "Brother Zhang has warned me, I shouldn't mention it. But I think that no matter how serious the crime is, I will die... I forgive the guilt, I think that one is dead.

Li Liu is far from a living Li Liu."

"The death of Li Li was only a shock for a while. Three or five years, who can still remember it?

"And if Li Wu, even if he is a prisoner, he will return to his original hometown to build water conservancy, and he will not only survive but also be his hometown, how can he not be satisfied? This is to benefit the people and share the worries of the court.

.

"If one can build a large canal that can last for a hundred years, he will exchange his life for thousands of people and benefit for generations. In history books, there must be a reputation for being kind and kind to be known by the emperor!"

Brother Shou's face cleared a little, but he remained silent.

Shen Rui looked at Shou Ge's expression and added another weight, "What's more, there is Li Yanqing, who is unmatched in military equipment. If Li Yu is punished for death, Li Yanqing will be alive, and the court's officials will not be afraid.

He dares to assign him a heavy responsibility easily. Li Yanqing, a genius who makes weapons, will be more likely to live. Your Majesty, you know the best martial arts. Just say how many enemies this weapon will kill? How many soldiers will be alive?

?How many border people can be saved more!”

Brother Shou looked up at Shen Rui for a while, and snorted lightly, saying, "It's great, you go and say these words to Li Liu. Look at him, are you willing to speak."

After saying this, Shen Rui didn't know what to say. He really didn't know what Li Liu had done. What Brother Shou wanted to ask.

Brother Shou glanced at Shen Rui sideways and asked, "Do you know what crime is Li Jue?"

However, he didn't want Shen Rui to answer, so he said calmly: "There are two priceless treasures on the gift list Cao Xiong gave to Liu Jin. The house was searched and he didn't search. Liu Jin bit him to death and refused to admit it, saying that there was no such thing.

Wang Yueze said that he was afraid that he would be in Liu Jin's cemetery house. Someone in the East Factory revealed that Liu Jin secretly built a cemetery house. Haha, it was still an underground palace."
