Chapter 347: Abandonment

"Little four?" Chang Runzhi was surprised: "How can you mention him?" ”

Then she contacted Liu Tong and said that Emperor Taichang wanted to train the navy, and suddenly said: "The emperor wants to let Xiaosi train the navy?" ”

"Your fourth brother can swim in the water, but he is not qualified to practice the navy. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Liu Tong said softly: "But if the navy really practice...... The future of Little Four is limitless. ”

Chang Ou has always been bold and careful, not to mention, he will definitely be interested in this kind of groundbreaking errand entrusted to him.

But Chang Runzhi was a little hesitant, this matter is not a small risk, and the benefits are very high. If the fourth child really becomes famous in the future...... The power of the descendants should not be underestimated. Those ministers who are afraid that their relatives will abuse their power are afraid that they will have to say some cruel words again.

Now Emperor Taichang still trusts and relies on his wife, but it is difficult to say what will happen in the future......

No matter how Liu Tong and Chang Runzhi chatted in private, they couldn't change Emperor Taichang's mind.

Great Wei quietly began a long-term government decree to support merchants and vigorously promote agriculture.

The draft was also in full swing a month later, and according to the informant, there were many names in the draft newspapers around the country.

It seems that Emperor Taichang's market is still very good.

When Chang Runzhi entered the palace to accompany the queen, the queen also mentioned that there were several women in the primary election who had a high voice, some were famous for their beauty, some were famous for their talents, and some were famous for their reputation, such as filial piety.

These outstanding portraits have been sent to the capital early.

The queen took it out and showed it to Chang Runzhi, the ancient portraits could not draw the true appearance of people, but judging from the paintings, the general appearance was still clear.

Those who can pass the primary election will naturally not be ugly girls.

The queen took the portraits and commented on them one by one, and after commenting, she asked Chang Runzhi with a smile: "What do you think?" ”

"Entering the palace is just to serve your sister, you see that your eyes are closed, and people are honest, and it is okay to stay in the palace."

's own brother-in-law and concubine, can she still agree with her as a sister? In front of his sister, Chang Runzhi naturally didn't say anything.

When the queen heard this, she smiled and said: "The palace is a little deserted, and many of the huge palaces are vacant...... When the show girl entered the palace, the concubine filled the palace, and the popularity came. ”

Chang Runzhi smiled and didn't speak, and took the tea.

The affairs of the harem are watched by the queen, and Emperor Taichang's mind can be used in the court.

The official position adjustment plan he asked for before was handed over to the six ministries one after another, especially the Criminal Department, which was the most detailed. After all, it is Liu Tong who is in charge of the Criminal Department, and the plan given by the Shangshu of the Criminal Department always has to be constantly reviewed and rejected by Liu Tong.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department felt that his hair had turned gray recently.

Synthesizing the adjustment plan given by other ministries, Emperor Taichang drew up a general plan, and asked the six departments to adjust according to the general plan.

The first to rectify was the relatively idle Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry.

The two ministries do not have much real power, and they can be used as pilot sites.

Due to the adjustment of official positions, many officials in the two ministries were dismissed, and now they still hold the imperial court, but they have no power in their hands.

Emperor Taichang did not express his intention to let them go home to farm, but only spent a month to observe the operation of the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry, and felt that the efficiency was higher, and there was no discomfort, so he affirmed the hard work of the two Shangshu, which was regarded as approving the restructuring of the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry.

The two Shangshu breathed a sigh of relief, and it was the turn of the military department and the criminal department to restructure it.

The two Shangshu of the Military Department and the Criminal Department also abandoned some officials in accordance with the results of the first two.

Emperor Taichang still did not say anything to those officials who were shabu, and only signaled that after the reform of the criminal department of the military department was completed, the official department and the household department would follow.

The Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households are actually the most powerful of the six departments. Especially in the household department, it is a money bag, but if the people above leak a little, they can feed the people below to a full stomach.

As for the officials' department, the officials in charge of the assessment, if they want to be promoted, they always have to make it clear up and down. It is impossible for the officials to be incorruptible.

These two parts are more difficult to reform than the other four. In the other four departments, there are always some family concubines or commoners who have passed the imperial examination, and most of those who have been discarded are these people.

And the officials and households, because of their power and power, and they have enough oil and water, those who can enter are the children of the big families.

As the saying goes, there are more monks and less porridge, and the officials and households are the porridge, and they have to share and eat it, and they can only cling to those powerful families.

To weed out people from these two parts is a matter of deliberation and deliberation. Each family also has to weigh the pros and cons before deciding on who will give up.

Emperor Taichang saw these things.

It took three months to finally clean up the six.

At the same time, Liu Tong also sorted out the information of the abandoned officials after his own review, and brought out the talented ones and handed them over to Emperor Taichang for reading.

At the same time, the primary and secondary selections of the draft have all been completed, and the remaining 100 charming girls have entered the final selection of the emperor.

Emperor Taichang was not interested in this, and no one even showed up in the final election.

He was discussing his next move with several confidants and Liu Tong.

Therefore, the final election can only be the queen.

As for the Queen Mother, she has always liked to be quiet, and she doesn't think she has few grandchildren, so she is not keen on the draft, at most she just looked at the portraits of a few outstanding people handed over by the queen, and she didn't even say anything.

The queen could only reluctantly recruit the virtuous concubine to accompany her, and the two concubines sat with her, and followed the comments.

Chang Runzhi wanted to see the excitement, and after Liu Tong mentioned it to Emperor Taichang, Emperor Taichang had no opinion, so the queen asked her to hide from it.

After all, it is not in accordance with the rules to let her comment on the emperor's future concubines.

In the main hall, the fragrant wind is gusting. The thousands of charming girls were dressed beautifully, and they entered the palace in groups of five in turn for the queen and others to choose.

Most of the people who can enter the final selection are aristocratic women. Although there are folk women, there are not many, and even several of those who have been famous before have lost the election in the re-election.

This is undoubtedly a move by the aristocracy, for fear that the folk women will be too prominent and steal the limelight of the noble women.

The folk women who entered the final selection are average in appearance, and they are not as charming and beautiful as the aristocratic women.

The queen mother is not young, these girls can be her daughters-in-law, and the eyes on them are not sharp.

Concubine Xian was not in good health and coughed twice from time to time. When the queen asked her something, she replied, and without asking, she sat down in peace.

Chang Runzhi felt bored after watching it for a while, and it was not as lively as he imagined.

The queen chooses a concubine for the emperor, she is really just choosing a concubine, looking at her appearance, temperament, and character......

After reading a hundred people, the queen chose a total of six people to stay, three of whom were born nobles, but they were just small nobles and couldn't make any big waves. The other three, one from a merchant, one from the daughter of a farmer, and one from a declining scholarly family, whose ancestors are said to have been extremely popular ministers in the previous dynasty.

In general, the six girls selected are all good girls with low eyebrows and pleasing to the eyes, and they are honest and honest on the surface.

The queen was chosen according to what Emperor Taichang said, but this result did not satisfy everyone.

No, on the second day, there was a royal history that said that the queen was not virtuous and jealous.

Emperor Taichang sneered, just waiting for this letter! (To be continued.) )
