Seeing the candidate launched by Zhang Juzheng, Gao Pragmatic snorted coldly in his heart, and said secretly: No wonder you have been doing it in private for several days before you can act, it turns out that this is the case.

On Wushen Day, Liu Fenyong, Shangbao Siqing, said: "The emperor has been on the throne for six years, and the sea is not unstable, but the disaster has not disappeared; The outside is not unpretentious, but the opportunity is worrying. If the dynasty is vibrating, and the big handle is gradually moving; If the stone road is cleared, the accumulated habits are still there. There is a division to lead to see the rule of inspiration, and the emperor's spiritual will is gradually failing. Although the first minister is humble, he can't bear to be silent when he thinks of the old kindness of the palace, and he is careful about five things, so as to judge the ...... Ying"

What a reproach!

Gao Shiwen sneered: If you accuse the law like this, then nothing in the world can be considered to be done, and there will never be.

Look at this statement:

The emperor has been on the throne for six years, and the sea seems to be stable, but in fact, disasters still occur from time to time - yes, yes, but the question is, which dynasty and which generation can still be without disasters, what is the point of what you say?

Although the Waiyi seem to be obedient, they are still in danger, and these people may be unfavorable to me at any time - yes, yes, but unless there are no Waiyi around you, Waiyi will always be dangerous to you, what is the point of what you say?

The court seems to have made a lot of efforts, but the authority of the court has gradually moved down, don't you think it's dangerous for the emperor - yes, yes, the emperor has handed over most of the government affairs to my third uncle, and he trusts him a lot, so at the moment, the government is vibrating, but if the emperor doesn't give the right to do things, where does the court come from, the current situation is the result of the emperor's choice of one or the other, what's the point of what you say?

The rule of officials seems to have been cleared a lot, but there are too many accumulated habits, and there is not much change now - yes, yes, the rule of officials has been cleared a lot, but the accumulated habits have not changed much, but you don't want to fucking want to, Gao Gong has only been in charge of the affairs of the officials for a little more than two years, and it is a miracle to be able to purge the officials! Is it so easy to change the habits of nearly 200 years, and what is the point of your words?

Gao pragmatic said: Sure enough, a troll is always a troll, as long as he wants to spray you, no matter how good you do, he can find a spray point, and he is confident.

Gao Pragmatic continued to look down, Liu Fenyong said five things, the first is "security holy bow", Gao Pragmatic glanced at it twice and skipped it directly - this article is about asking the emperor to take care of his body.

Seeing the second article, Gao Pragmatic knew that the key point was coming: Liu Fenyong said that the second said that he would take over the power.

"The master of the people will operate the handle of the ritual and music conquest, and he will have a government and an order, and he will be judged, and then his subordinates will not dare to do their own thing. In the past, the emperor was wise and decisive, unpredictable, and for a while, the ministers and ministers were impressed. What the government proposes now, there is what the department undertakes, and it is not without admiration. And when he disobeyed, did the emperor make an arbitrary decision? The use of talents is based on public opinion, and they dare not think about revenge? Chen Fu dares to know. The state affairs are all out of loyalty, and they dare not go up and down with selfish intentions? Don't dare to know. ”

"That is, if you counsel the East Palace, it is the responsibility of the ministers, and dare to do it for the convenience of the country; The famous instrument of the imperial court, the tool of the world, and now it is the object of the city's grace. Who dared to do this when the emperor was the first? Wishing to look at all things alone, the power of the mind can not be moved downward, where the mansion of the building white, the cabinet of the vote to propose, especially leave a clear view, when out of the arbitrary, then the ministers can not measure their opportunities, and the political authority will not be biased. ”

That's a lot of that.

Liu Fenyong said this, although he did not name him, but as long as he is not a fool, he must be able to see that although what he said seems to be saying that the emperor lacks arbitrariness, in fact, the blades are all pointed at the high arch!

As for his suggestion, it is also very simple, to put it bluntly: Your Majesty, you can't just listen to Gao Gong's words!

Gao pragmatic pouted and continued to look down, but the third article was basically nonsense, which was to persuade the emperor to be thrifty. He said that since the emperor ascended the throne, the inner government took hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, "seeking rare treasures, making the lamp of Aoshan, serving the imperial utensils, and carving gold carved jade ornaments, which are practical in body and mind, what is the benefit?" This is also the truth, but Gao Pragmatic compared the expenses of the "Ming Monarch and Holy Lords" of the Qing Dynasty with each other, and he directly hehe.

An emperor has been on the throne for six years, and the society has governed the world and the treasury is rich, but he himself actually spent about 300,000 taels, an average of 50,000 taels a year, less than 60,000 taels of silver, which is a goddamn extravagance and waste?

Qianlong, the "perfect old man" boasted by later generations, spent 20 million taels before and after going down to the south of the Yangtze River; The emperors of the Qing Dynasty spent 15.6 million taels to repair the Old Summer Palace, and the maintenance cost was several times or even ten times the construction cost; Cixi repaired the Summer Palace, spending a minimum of 30 million taels in about eight years......

If you think about it again, the Shunzhi period began to expand the Nanyuan left by the Ming Dynasty on a large scale; The Kangxi Dynasty began to build the famous Changchun Garden; During the Yongzheng period, the construction of the more famous Old Summer Palace began; To Qianlong continued to build the Old Summer Palace, not to mention, but also built a new Qingyi Garden (the predecessor of the Summer Palace), Jingyi Garden, Jingmingyuan, etc., in addition to similar to Chengde Summer Resort and the like, it is simply countless, as for the three tombs outside the Guanwai, the Qing Dongling, the Qing Xiling, these are too lazy to say.

How much did it cost?

Emperor Longqing is placed in the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and he is indeed the master who can spend money, but he can spend money, if he is placed in the Qing Dynasty to make an analogy, what is it? That's just a drop in the bucket!

As for the usual expenses, don't say anything else, just talk about one to eat. Long Qing loves to eat donkey intestines, and later felt that eating donkey intestines would kill the whole donkey, which seemed to be a bit of a waste, so he greatly reduced the probability of the donkey intestine dish being served; Cixi usually has one hundred and eight dishes for a meal, and she said that there is no place to put chopsticks!

Gao pragmatically skipped this one with a bored look on his face and continued to look down. Liu Fenyong said: Fourth, pay attention to the chapter.

This article swept a few glances and continued to skip - it actually means the same as the second one: Your Majesty, you can't just look at Gao Gong's votes in everything, although what everyone said may not be all right, but at least the loyalty is commendable, you can't just because Gao Gong thinks it's nonsense and doesn't have a vote, so you don't read it and don't approve it and stay in it! Otherwise, "suppress the party of thrift and evil power, reincarnate with suspicion, and the royal subordinates will cover it to become a traitor"!

Gao pragmatic snorted lightly, continued to skip, and looked down at the last one. Liu Fenyong said: Five days to use loyalty.

"Those who are loyal and upright are also the cadres of the country. If you don't accept the will of the wind, in order to vent the feelings of others; Cater to the powerful, and compare the party with the prostitute friends. Since the emperor's accession to the throne, there are those who have been rejected and abandoned by the ministers of Taiwan, and they have not yet been recalled and hired. ”

Oh, it turns out that the loyal and upright you are talking about are those degraded officials?

There are three main categories of people in that group: those who followed Xu Jie back then; has nothing to do with the emperor's private life every day; Those who opposed the major policies and reforms of the imperial court - such as Jingcha, I answered the tribute, opened the sea to trade, and a whip law.

The first and second types are purely mouth-to-mouth artillery parties that eat dry rice, whether it is the emperor or Gao Gong, as long as they want to purge the officials, they will inevitably not be able to tolerate them, there is nothing to say.

As for the third category, you people must not have heard of "firm political stance, consciously consistent with the central government in thought and action" - such a large country, it is difficult to govern, as an official of the imperial court, you always work against the major policies of the imperial court, if all the officials in the world are like you, how can the imperial court still carry out its work?

So after Gao Pragmatic read it, the evaluation was very simple: nonsense throughout, and the focus was only on the second one.

However, the key now is whether Gao Gong will take his advice that night and hold back until the emperor himself can't hold his breath and takes the initiative to intervene.

With such a thought, Gao Pragmatic came to the cabinet in the name of returning the Guanzheng Songshu, and he wanted to understand Gao Gong's attitude.
