The eunuch in the palace also had people from the Hanlin Academy instructing him. These people were purely teaching him like they would a sheep. Could it be that carrying out the elite education made eunuch an enemy of the literati?

When the in the early Ming dynasty was alive, there were still eunuchs leading the troops, but after the eunuchs' leader, Cao Jiaxiang, rebelled against them, and Wang Zhen, the one who caused the change in the castle, the eunuch class and the military power were broken up completely.

In this way, the military power of the imperial court was vested in the civil officials. This was also what the civil service pursued after. Although they didn't understand soldiers very well, it was still better to hold on to the bad side than to let others hold on to their soldiers and pose a threat to them.

Zhu Yisu 1 heard his son say that he didn't understand the military stratagem, but he was only laughing in his heart, this brat was actually scheming with Liu Shimin. Clutching his forehead that was about to crack from the pain, Liu Tie said, ”Duke Liu, you have not mastered Daizhou yet. You came from the Martial Guard, and were friendly with me in the past. He was a man of indomitable character, a man of plethora, a man skilled in military strategy. Now that my son is going to study the Military Strategy, I hope Duke Liu can help me achieve it. ”

Who was Sun Chuantinng? Liu Shimin didn't know. Every three years there are three of them, and he remembers the top nine. 9 turned to Zhu Yisu and asked, ”Where is this Scholar Sun now?”

”A month ago, there was a letter announcing the good news. His first term in Yongcheng City's Zhixian County was famed for his talent, and he was transferred to Shangqiu as the Zhixian County.”

Zhu Yisu was somewhat embarrassed to face Liu Shimin. He was also one of Liu Shimin's subordinates. It's just that he is a disciple of Zhu Family and boasts of having a noble bloodline. Although Liu Shimin had a clear name, he was a eunuch, a servant of the Emperor.

Liu Shimin muttered to himself, ”He was promoted from lower county to higher county in half a year, I think he must have had real talent.” The military tactics that the scholar spoke of could not be counted, but it was still enough to enlighten Erlang. This old man has over three years of experience in Liao Town and has been through many wars. Even though he is very crude, his experience is a treasure that I have exchanged for my life. ”

Sun Chuantinng...

Zhu Hongzhao swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

He was actually his father and friend? The person with the same surname, Sun, as Sun Chuantinng, who was mentioned last time, shouldn't be that amazing person, Sun Chuantinng? At this moment, Zhu Hongzhao's mind was blank. With such an incredible person as his master, how could he still worry about not being safe in the future?

Liu Shimin was still saying: ”I also have some contacts in the Liu Family. It would not be a problem for us to find 3 or 3 ungrateful general s from the garrison camp in Nanjing. His Majesty had entrusted Erlang to me to teach him. This was a sign of trust in me. ”Lord Zhu, please be at ease and teach Erlang, this old man will teach my nephew at home.”

”Thank you, Duke Liu, for helping us out.”

Liu Shimin is 56 years older than the 38-year-old Zhu Yisu, claiming that I have the right to act. Although he was just a eunuch, how could the Zhu Family father and son possibly despise him? Obviously not.

With a smile, Liu Shimin said confidently: ”If I don't have face, I will make sure that Scholar Sun comes to the Da Tong Kingdom to be a magistrate. After Erlang Meng finishes his studies, he'll push him into the sixth division to be the head and a teacher. ”

He was indeed confident, but he was confident that anyone under the fifth stage would give him face if they used Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs. However, he had to hurry. If the old emperor died, there would definitely be trouble in the court.

Usually, during this time of transition, Garrison Eunuch, who he released, would be the object of cleaning for the second batch. The first batch consisted of the old men of the palace, who had already jumped out of that place.

Of course, he wouldn't reveal anything bad about the old emperor's health.

The second day, the father and son of Zhu Family sent off. Liu Shimin rushed to Datong City and at the same time personally wrote a few letters to the father and son of Zhu Family in Nanjing. As the son of a high-ranking military officer, his family lived in the South Zhili.

Xinping Fort cultivation at the southern bank of the Xi Yang River, eighteen miles to the side, twenty-six piers at the sides, and sixteen beacons. In addition, there were three other garrisons, respectively located thirteen miles away from the north shore of the Xiyang River in the east, guarded seven miles away from the official road in the south, and two miles further south, constructed in the northern part of Erlang Mountain, known as the Hua Men Fortress.

Now that the imperial edict had been passed down, Zhu Yisu had officially become the Xinping Fort's Wu Steel, and had been assigned to handle the matter of the thousand families of Xinping Fort. Zhu Yisu was no longer afraid and allowed his son to go out on a tour.

And he had more important things to do, Hee Chong had wiped out all the officers of Xinping Fort and soldier. Other than foreigners, there were still a few officers left in the Thousand Clubhouse. He was going to follow this lead and uproot all the officers in this thousand year old house.

Actually, it was not so exaggerated as bloody. It was because the hereditary military officers had taken over the land of the military, allowing them to vomit it up and distribute it to the bankrupt military families for reclamation.

At the same time, according to the register of military personnel, they would bring out the escaping military personnel. This was called Gou Jun. It meant finding the families of the deserters in the military register and capturing them to make up for the missing military funds.

These were all troublesome matters. They had to deal with the local government officials.

In fact, the deserters did not run far without a guide. Most of them hid away to be the tenants of the local hereditary officers. Fortunately, these officers were dead. Zhu Yisu's reputation was flourishing, so the hereditary officers could only watch as Zhu Yisu stripped them of their posts and punished them.
