In the first cabinet created by Judy in Ming Dynasty, Yang Rong was the youngest, but his age did not become an obstacle to his career. Among the seven cabinet members, Judy trusts him the most. Cheng Zu made five northern expeditions in the Ming Dynasty, and he followed them again and again. After Judy's death, Zhu Gaochi, Emperor Renzong of Ming Dynasty, ascended the throne, and Zhu Zhanji, Emperor Xuanzong of Ming Dynasty, ruled the world.

Among the first cabinet members in the Ming Dynasty, if Jie Jin was the worst, then Yang Rong was the most suitable.

The youngest? Ge Lao?

Yang Rong, can be said to be the cabinet in the early Ming Dynasty? Soul figure? .

His ancestral home is Fujian, because he cried loudly at birth. What does his grandfather think? Will it be an honor for my son to be in my home? So I named it? Zi Rong? . The name Yang Rong was later changed by Judy. As his parents hoped, Yang Rong was quite talented as an adult, and he was even more prosperous in the examination room. In the second year of Wen Jian (1400), 28-year-old Yang Rongzhong won the second place in palace examination and awarded it to Hanlin for editing.

However, due to the difficulty of the battle, Yang Rong failed to exert his fist in his reign. Two years later, the winner, Prince Judy, led the army all the way south to Nanjing.

Judy went to Beijing. As a veteran of Wen Jian, some people chose to die, others chose to wait and see, while Yang Rong chose to meet Judy and ask him a question before his horse. Are you going to pay a visit to Taizu Mausoleum first, or are you going to the throne first? ? What a good question! Judy's original name was Zuxun. Jun Qing? The rising slogan. Now that things have been done, paying a visit to Taizu Mausoleum is a superficial job, but it can make his troops more justified; If you are eager to ascend the throne, will you let the world know its purpose? Impure? . A word awakened the dreamer, and Judy immediately turned her horse's head and went to the mausoleum before Mao ascended the throne to pay homage. Is Yang Rong one of them? Stop? Become famous in one fell swoop and get Judy's trust and reuse.

After Judy ascended the throne, Yang Rong was elected as the first cabinet minister of Wenyuange. Among the seven cabinet ministers who joined the cabinet in the same batch, Yang Rong is the youngest, but he is not the same as? Police are sensitive? Famous and respected.

Like other cabinet ministers, Yang Rong is very busy with his work every day: every four days, he goes to North Korea, despite the ups and downs. What Japanese relatives have done or abandoned is often forced to return at dusk. ? He is very diligent, conscientious and demanding of himself? God's grace develops with heaven and earth, willing to be firm and cold-resistant? .

But if this is the case, it cannot highlight the irreplaceable nature of Yang Rong. You know, his position in the hearts of emperors and historians is extraordinary. Once, in order to reward him for going on a business trip, Judy cut him a watermelon to cool him down. Compared with other courtiers, although Yang Rong is the youngest, Judy never calls her by her first name, but by her first name? Where's Yang? .

Besides stopping the horse, Judy won his trust. So, what else does Yang Rong have? Special? What makes the emperor so fond of it?

Excellent business ability

The duty of cabinet ministers is to assist the emperor in handling the affairs of maintaining the court. Like other cabinet ministers, Yang Rong has no choice in business ability. Even in the face of a mountain of work, he can be decisive and resolute.

What is different is that although Yang Rong is a civilian, he is the most knowledgeable in military affairs among cabinet ministers. He is very good at planning frontier affairs, resourceful and decisive on the battlefield. Therefore, every time Ming Chengzu visited the north, he would take Yang Rong with him, hand over all military affairs to him, and grant him the privilege of seeing him at any time, day and night.

How strong is Yang Rong's military capability?

In order to arrange the military affairs in an all-round way, Yang Rong knew the personal situation of the frontier generals, the geographical situation of the frontier fortress and the military strength of his opponents like the back of his hand.

In the tenth year of Yongle (14 12), the defenders in Gansu wrote that the defectors fled to Jinchi Mongolia, which would cause border troubles. Cheng Zu sent Yang Rong to deploy troops. After comprehensive judgment, Yang Rong thought it was unnecessary to send troops to counter the rebellion for two reasons: First, it was the middle of winter, not the time to use troops; Second, the number of defectors is small and can't stand the wind and waves. Cheng Zu listened to this suggestion, and sure enough, the defector quickly surrendered voluntarily.

On another occasion, Ming led an army to the fortress, but due to the discontinuous logistics supply, the army failed to catch up with the enemy after a long journey in the cold. At that time, the army had been greatly depleted and 23/ 10 soldiers died. In a dilemma, Ming asked the ministers for advice, but everyone was passive to Nuo Nuo. Only Yang Rong and Jin Youzi said they would transfer troops. Chengzu listened to the advice and stopped the loss in time.

Food is a big problem when marching outside. In order to ensure enough long-term salary, Yang Rong suggested to the emperor that he should choose a general to solve the field, both farming and training, without delay. In case of emergency, Yang Rong also has wonderful methods. Once, he went out with Ming Chengzu. Back in the division, the troops' food supply was gone. Yang Rongxian summoned the emperor's surplus grain to the army, ordered those who had surplus grain in the army to borrow from each other, and promised that the country would double the repayment after entering the fortress. After several exercises, the army finally pulled through.

Ming Chengzu had great trust and dependence on Yang Rong. When he leaves the fortress, he will give his personal bodyguard to Yang Rong. When Yang Rong's mother died, Cheng Zu was preparing to go north again. In order to let Yang Rong go with him, he didn't even approve Yang Rong's departure. It's almost impossible without Yang Rong.

Unique persuasion skills

Yang Rong also has a unique skill, that is, every time he talks to the emperor, he can talk to the emperor's heart; Every time he made a suggestion, the emperor said yes. As an ancestor, the minister of the DPRK always bears the pressure of the emperor's anger when he speaks. However, as long as Yang Rong comes, Cheng Zu's face will turn from anger to joy, and the stones in ministers' hearts will fall to the ground.

Rong made this? Amazing? There are two reasons: first, there is a strong endorsement, which makes sense; The second is to speak tactfully and persuade skillfully.

First of all, to make suggestions, the most important thing is to make it clear:

At the end of Yongle, some people in Zhejiang and Fujian rebelled. The imperial court originally intended to send troops to suppress it. Cheng Zu asked Yang Rong's opinion. Yang Rong advocated sending envoys to make peace for the following reasons: The local people started fighting because of the oppression of officials and had to unite to protect themselves. Once the imperial court sends troops, they will gather more and more, and they will be more unable to clean up. ? Cheng Zu followed his advice and the rebellion was quickly put down.

After Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty succeeded to the throne, Hanwang Zhu rose up. Yang Rong was the first to ask the new emperor to use his personal expedition. Seeing the emperor's hesitation, he advised: He said that if your majesty was new here, he would not do it himself. Today, if you are surprised, you will face it with the power of heaven, and everything is not good. ? Xuanzong listened to Yang Rong's plan and led the army to personally expedition. Sure enough, Zhu surrendered without a fight.

Second: make suggestions. He advocates good suggestions and avoids impulsiveness.

Yang Rong has his own advice? Philosophy? ：

On the one hand, he is famous in the imperial court? Tadashi said that every time Yang Rong tutored Chu Jun? I will take good care of morality, love the virtuous and eliminate evil, and be thrifty and abstinent. I am deeply impressed by the Kingdom of Ghana. Or visiting government affairs, Chen Qi is definitely the most important, and the priority order is sincere and unabashed. ? Is that what he appreciates? Do you have a body? .

On the other hand, he opposes being too rigid. Because people who are too straightforward are easy to get emotional. Emotional words are easy to offend Tianwei and lead to disaster. Many ministers feel guilty about expressing their feelings, but Yang Rong thinks it's not worth it. Therefore, he often humbly advised the emperor and saved the lives of many ministers.

Yang Rong once shared his advice skills by accompanying the emperor to read "Thousand Characters": how to maintain the dignity of the emperor and put forward his own opinions euphemistically when he disagreed with the emperor.

For example, you read thousands of books and went to the clouds? Dark red heaven and earth? , not abrupt words also. Ann doesn't want to taste me? Know what you're thinking? An Zhi? Huang Xuan? Can't do it? Hong Xuan? ? It's no use talking. Wait until the third, or ask a question, you should say:? When I read Qian Wen, what did I see in the book? Is heaven and earth mysterious and yellow? , unknown whether? ?

Yang became the emperor of several dynasties, but nothing unfortunate came out of his mouth. He was always grateful to the emperor.

What is irreplaceable?

Yang Rong's irreplaceability made him firmly in the cabinet, and he became the smoothest of the seven cabinet members.

In the 16th year of Yongle (14 18), Cheng Zu put Yang Rong in charge of the affairs of the Imperial Academy. Seeing that Yang Rong was getting more and more favored, some ministers, out of jealousy, jointly recommended him as a drink offering for imperial academy, in order to drive him out of the cabinet and away from the emperor. In a word, Judy silenced the ministers: imperial academy's wine sacrifice Yang Rong is certainly capable, but who can replace his present job?

Yang Rong's working ability is really unparalleled. It is said that when some officials need cabinet assistance, they will definitely ask Yang Rong first. If Yang Rong were here, many problems could be solved quickly. If Yang Rong is absent, some officials will even go straight back and come back another day. History books praised him for handling state affairs? Wave a catty, have something to decide? Compare him to Yao Chong, a famous figure in the Tang Dynasty.

Yang Rong is not without its shortcomings. He loved horses, so the border guards gave Yang Rongliang horses every year, which made later Ming Xuanzong very dissatisfied. Yang Shiqi, another important North Korean official, did his best? Exculpate: Yang Rong is proficient in frontier affairs, which is inferior to him. Collecting horses is a minor problem, not to mention! ?

Can the emperor and ministers face the problem directly? Not worth mentioning? The core reason is, of course, Yang Rong's unparalleled talent. Professionalism, strong ability, good advice and specific things are all indispensable aspects that make Yang Rong irreplaceable.
