Zhu Yicheng looked at Shi Yizhi deeply and said nothing.

Shi Yizhi was still standing, maintaining a salute posture, but his forehead was filled with sweat at this moment, and he felt even more uneasy.

This is the first time in the Ming Dynasty that the Chief Military Affairs Minister resigned, but Shi Yizhi has always had the idea of ​​resigning from the position of Minister of Military Affairs Minister in his heart these days. Now he is really embarrassed in the Military Affairs Office. Although he is still the Chief Military Affairs Minister in name, he has actually lost the position of the Military Affairs Office and is just a name.

Shi Yizhi was a civil official, and he was already arrogant and could not bear it in this situation. The sudden resignation today was what he had always thought in his heart, but he was still a little bit of intent.

Zhu Yicheng didn't speak, which made Shi Yizhi feel a little more stressed, and at the same time he felt a little regretful.

Shi Yizhi knew very well that Zhu Yicheng had been dissatisfied with him before, otherwise he would not have sent Liao Huanzhi, the old minister, to the military aircraft. The reason why he was still in the Military Affairs Office and served as the chief military aircraft minister was because Zhu Yicheng considered all aspects, and Zhu Yicheng hoped that he could stay until the end of his term before leaving.

But now he suddenly proposed to resign, which was equivalent to disrupting all Zhu Yicheng's previous arrangements. Although Shi Yizhi's resignation was a moment of relaxation when he said that he was reckless, he soon realized that he was reckless again.

Today, I asked Shi Yizhi to come and Zhu Yicheng wanted to tell him something about mainland Australia.

Now that Toba Island has been discovered, the Australian mainland is a natural result. Compared with Xinming, the subsequent occupation, immigration, development and other work of the Australian mainland including Toba Island is relatively simple. After all, the Tu people there are not strong power, and it is not as complicated as the colonies of Western countries in Xinming.

Therefore, the main task next is to choose a suitable location to establish a stronghold, and then explore and explore from all parties, and at the same time, the Ming Dynasty then immigrates here to ensure the establishment of sovereignty.

All these tasks require the Military Affairs Office to make preliminary preparations and then start to do them.

According to Zhu Yicheng's idea, although Shi Yizhi is not a qualified chief military aircraft, his ability is still good. He was asked to be responsible for this matter in the name of chief military aircraft. After the formal implementation, his term of office will be almost over.

By then, even if Shi Yizhi retreated, he would be considered as having no corpse position on the chief military plane. At least this credit fell firmly on his head, which was a good thing for him.

In this way, Zhu Yicheng has face and Shi Yizhi can naturally withdraw from the military service safely, and there will be no objection between the government and the country.

But who would have thought that before Zhu Yicheng could explain this matter in detail to him, Shi Yizhi actually proposed to resign. This surprised Zhu Yicheng and couldn't help but feel anger in his heart.

Squinted his eyes and looked at Shi Yizhi. Zhu Yicheng wanted to call someone to pull him out of the court. In front of the emperor, the chief military aircraft designated by the emperor actually resigned, which was equivalent to slapping Zhu Yicheng in the face.

However, after all, Zhu Yicheng, the emperor has long been no longer a young man who was easily impulsive back then. If he really did that, it would be a bigger joke. The chief military aircraft was actually sceptered by the emperor. How would the people in the world view this matter inside and outside the government?

Thinking of this, suppressing the anger in his heart, Zhu Yicheng took a deep breath, and his fist slowly relaxed, and he tried to say in a gentle tone: "Shi Qing, sit down and talk."

After saying this, a big stone in Shi Yizhi's heart finally fell down and sat back on his seat.

"Shi Qing is an important official of the country. I have been working hard for state affairs for the past few years. I have neglected this matter on weekdays. This is my fault." Zhu Yicheng said this first, and then said: "The Military Affairs Office is my arm. The body of the military aircraft is the most important thing. However, I have not considered this before. Today, Shi Qing reminded me, let's do this. From now on, I will send the imperial physician to the Military Affairs Office to adjust the body of the ministers to avoid excessive labor and cause the disease."

"I am grateful to you, the emperor is very grateful." Shi Yizhi responded quickly, but he was still nervous.

Zhu Yicheng also had his considerations when he said this, but he had just thought that the Imperial Doctor would treat all the military ministers. Although the imperial court had certain treatment for senior officials, including medical treatment, such as the ministers of the Military Affairs Office, and even officials of the ministers of various departments, the Ming Dynasty had a convention that the Imperial Hospital could treat him.

But the practice is customary, but in fact there is no special system. In addition, although many people in this era pay attention to health care, the real medical system has not been established, let alone the medical insurance mechanism in later generations.

Taking advantage of the topic just now, it is also necessary to directly move to this aspect, and to establish a preliminary medical insurance mechanism for the Military Affairs Office, conduct regular physical examinations and control health status for the Military Affairs Minister.

What's more, the imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital are very idle on weekdays. This is a doctor who relies on experience. The more famous the doctor is, the more experience it requires. It is better to start establishing this system from the Military Affairs Office.

If this system works well and continues to be promoted to the heads of various departments, this is also a kind of benefit. More importantly, for Zhu Yicheng, it is also to let the people of the world know the kindness of his emperor's treatment of his ministers.

"Shi Qing is the chief military aircraft. The Ming Dynasty and I cannot live without Shi Qing. However, this person eats grains and is busy with official duties, so it is common for him to get sick. Shi Qing is now in his prime, and even if he has a small illness, it is okay. I have thought about it and there is no need to mention the resignation. This is how Shi Qing still remembers the Fujian case back then?"

Shi Yizhi listened carefully and felt a little relieved at first. After all, Zhu Yicheng was not angry about his resignation, but then he suddenly mentioned the Fujian case, which made Shi Yizhi suddenly feel a sudden blow.

The Fujian case is the largest case since the Ming Dynasty restored the country. This case involves so many officials and has a great impact to this day.

Back then, Zhu Yicheng was furious and didn't know how many people slashed their heads in one breath, but now he suddenly mentioned this matter again. Could it be...?

Thinking of this, Shi Yizhi didn't even dare to think about it anymore. But Zhu Yicheng had to reply to his inquiry, and immediately nodded and said, "Go back to the emperor, the minister of the case naturally knows."

"Every dynasty is a difficult problem in every dynasty. I think that when Taizu founded the Ming Dynasty and established strict laws, his intention was to make the world's officials clear and the people suffer less. But what's the truth? Those corrupt officials were killed continuously. In the end, during the Hongwu dynasty, although the court was extremely strict, was Shi Zhi really clear?"

Shi Yi sat there and didn't speak. Zhu Yicheng mentioned Taizu that this was the business of the old Zhu family. How could he, a minister, be able to make a comment, and he could not comment.

Zhu Yicheng continued: "In the early Ming Dynasty, the administration of officials was pretty good in the early years, but it gradually collapsed later. This is certainly due to the court, but people's hearts are a little bit. Furthermore, the salary of the Ming Dynasty was too low, and many officials could not even support themselves in the annual salary. It is almost impossible to be an official without being greedy. Although there is Hai Rui, there is only one Hai Rui in the world."

After taking a deep look at Shi Yizhi, Zhu Yicheng continued: "I have ascended to the great treasure and rebuilt the country. I have also considered a lot of things about the administration of officials. Although Taizu's method is good, it does not solve the root cause. This human nature is complicated and it is not possible to rely solely on strict discipline. In addition, the salary is concerned, so I directly changed the ancestral system and increased the salary of officials and the treatment of all the people, so as to avoid worries and support his integrity..."

"The emperor is far-sighted and shows kindness to his ministers. Everyone knows it and admires it very much." At this time, Shi Yizhi quickly responded, Zhu Yicheng was right, the salaries of officials in the Ming Dynasty are now extremely good, compared to the previous Ming Dynasty.

According to the current standard of salary in the Ming Dynasty, the annual salary of ordinary seventh-rank officials was enough to make him live a very good life. In addition to the other welfare benefits of the court for officials, the living standards of Ming officials were not bad even compared with those in the Song Dynasty.

Not to mention the important officials in the court. For example, officials of Shi Yizhi's level have a huge annual salary. Although they are not as good as those of the maritime businessmen, these incomes are enough to make him live an extremely wealthy life.

Zhu Yicheng waved his hand and smiled and said, "The so-called emperor is not a waste of hungry soldiers. As an emperor, I, can't let my ministers worry about how to live every day. If this is the case, how can you ministers focus on political affairs?"

"What the emperor said," Shi Yi nodded, and at the same time wondered why Zhu Yicheng brought the topic to this aspect again.

Just when he was confused, Zhu Yicheng said again: "After the Fujian case, the Ministry of Personnel spent some effort, and the administration became much clearer in the next few years. But I think this person is often easy to forget, especially after a long time, his mind will not be awake. The so-called "forget the pain after healing the scar, which is what Shi Qing thinks?"

Shi Yizhi understood the meaning of the emperor's words. He nodded in agreement after thinking for a moment.

"I am relieved to the character of the Secretariat. Now, the Secretariat is not only a minister of military affairs, but is still an envoy of the Left Commander. Let's do this. Secretariat will patrol all over the place. First, our Ming Dynasty has only been restored for more than ten years. Although the court has made arrangements after the regaining of many places, the court cannot listen to the local government's words in terms of specific governance. Second, the Military Affairs Office and the Censorate are originally central institutions, and the Secretariat is a person I can trust. I am relieved to be with the Secretariat to do this matter, how about it?"

"I am willing to go! I will do this for my Ming Dynasty, to do a good job for the emperor, to pacify the government, to appease the local government, and to inspect the world." Shi Yizhi stood up without thinking and directly responded to this job.

Zhu Yicheng nodded with satisfaction: "Since that's the case, then that's it. By the way, Shi Qing's body is uncomfortable. I think it may be because of the northern climate. So, Shi Qing can go to the south first. The southern climate will nourish people, and it will be a good idea to raise your body along the way. As for other things, there is no need to consider, how about it?"

"I thank the emperor for his kindness." Shi Yizhi finally felt relieved and replied solemnly.
