Chapter 531: Xu Buji, the new official took office
After the New Year, it was the first court meeting, Zhu Yunwen did not participate on the grounds of violating the peace, and the court meeting ended without a problem, which made Xu Buji, the newly appointed cabinet chief, a little disappointed.
However, this did not affect Xu Buji's high morale, and after the end of the court meeting, Xu Buji led the new cabinet team and officials at and above the ministerial level to the auditorium to hold a New Year's plenary meeting.
I don't know how much ridicule has been received for this kind of behavior behind the scenes
"It's easy to climb to the coveted throne for so many years, so you have to show your face in front of the big guy."
In everyone's hearts, Xu Buji's behavior is regarded as a big show of his political status and political power.
After defeating Yang Shiqi, it is time to stand up and make his voice heard and highlight his status, so as to pave the way for the next drastic implementation of his own statecraft policy.
"The new official has three fires."
Arguments like this are not uncommon among the officials who enter the auditorium, and not many people are optimistic about Xu Buji, and not many people can afford Xu Buji.
In the eyes of most people, Xu Buji is an aggressive and combative politician who is willing to engage in political speculation.
This kind of argument and criticism did not reach Xu Buji's ears, and perhaps even if Xu Buji heard it, he would reciprocate it with noncommittal contempt.
He has been used to the journey of life along the way, I don't know how many criticisms he has heard and how many bad words he has received.
Who let Xu Buji offend too many people.
As soon as I see something that is not pleasing to the eye, I like to buckle the hat for others, grasp a little problem and fight to the end, and I am not satisfied if I don't peel off other people's official skins.
It's strange that this kind of personality can be liked.
"Pavilion Elder, it's all here."
Yang Rong of the General Administration Department came to Xu Buji's side and whispered a report, and the latter straightened up and walked onto the stage.
No matter how many opinions everyone had in their hearts about Xu Buji, but the moment Xu Buji strode onto the stage, these noisy and chaotic whispers were almost all subconsciously silent.
Only respect Luo shirts, not people.
Xu Buji was wearing the only cabinet chief assistant official robe in the Ming Dynasty.
The crimson official robe is embroidered with six chapters, pink rice, algae, stars, Chinese insects, yellow, and yellow.
Compared with the emperor's twelve chapters, there are fewer suns, moons, dragons, mountains, Zongyi and fire, which symbolize the country and imperial power.
But its regulation is already close to the prince's nine chapters.
In fact, with the increasing personal prestige of Zhu Yunwen in recent years, it is rare for the princes and vassals to wear crown robes to attend various conferences.
The head of the cabinet has six chapters, and the first to enjoy such honors is Yang Shiqi, who has only started in recent years.
"I summoned you here today, not for anything else, Xu Mou is the last talent, and he has been in a high position by the emperor's grace, so he can see his colleagues and make a debriefing report, so that everyone can know that Xu is a person, and in the future, everyone will work together to govern the country, and don't have strange suspicions."
There is a way to be clear first and then indisputable, and Xu Buji is the first to give the gift as soon as he opens his mouth.
In order to allow the various ministries of the court to cooperate with their own work and so that their future reform policies can be implemented in the localities, Xu Buji's posture is very low.
But this gesture is only temporary, and no one will buy Xu Buji's account.
We all know that the core focus of some words is not in the first half of the sentence, but in the back.
Sure enough, after the politeness was over, Xu Buji's next words were tantamount to a bombshell to everyone, and everyone who was blown up almost left their seats.
"A certain and his colleagues know that if you want to govern, you must first work together, and if you want to work together, you must first think together. In the process of governance, most of the political resources and time are wasted in prevarication and internal friction, which is not beneficial to the country and even worse to the people.
If we want to work together and think together, we must first clarify our position, that is, find the correct political position and political direction, and what is the correct political position and political direction, such as anti-corruption, anti-narcotics, unity, and stability.
And now we want to add one more point to these contents, that is, to clarify what an official is!
What is an official? Wearing an official uniform, wearing a crown on his head, stepping on official boots, going out with a car, and entering a seat is an official? Obviously not, because these are external decorations, and a three-year-old child can also wear a monkey crown.
Officials are the people who have public power, and those who exercise state power are called officials or public officials.
So what is public power and where does it come from?
We'll talk about this later, but let's get back to our main topic first.
All the colleagues are officials, what should this official do to be called one heart and one mind. Before answering this point, we must first clarify the foundation of officialdom.
Establish people first and establish morality, and establish officials first.
Some people take the word "moderation" as the foundation of the government, some people take the conscientious work as the foundation of the government, and some people take the long-sleeved and good dancing and the eight-sided exquisiteness as the foundation of the government.
What's more, take 'the water is clear, there are no fish, and the people are inspected, there are no fugitives' as the foundation of the government! ”
There was a dead silence in the venue, and everyone's hearts jumped.
Coming, coming, Xu Buji, the newly appointed cabinet chief assistant, is about to shoot at Yang Shiqi, the previous cabinet chief assistant.
"What does it mean that 'when the water is clear, there are no fish, and when people are observed, there are no fugitives'? This quote comes from "Da Dai Li Ji", which roughly means that if the water is too clear, the fish will not survive, and if a person cares too much about the shortcomings of others, he will not be able to unite friends.
This sentence perfectly fits the contradiction theory of His Majesty's commentary, and confirms that the relationship between the two sides of the contradiction can be converted into each other under certain conditions.
However, this sentence was truncated by someone with a heart, and it was taken out of context and applied to being an official, which is a big mistake! ”
Xu Buji loudly told his thoughts and the concept of governing as an official, and fiercely attacked and refuted this sentence.
What is the impact of this sentence being quoted in officialdom? It is when a person is allowed to be an official, and he should properly learn to pretend to be deaf and dumb, turn a blind eye to the sinister and ugly things that exist in the officialdom, and then go along with these corrupt officials.
This is in line with the fact that the water is not clear and the fish is alive.
Use the phrase 'when the water is clear, there are no fish' to hypnotize one's corrupt behavior, engage in self-forgiveness, reduce one's guilt for using public power to commit crimes, and intensify one's arrogance.
Finally, for officials who are upright and honest, this sentence is also used as a battering ram to attack their psychological defense line, criticizing those officials who are unwilling to go along with the same stream and engage in malitarianism, as if as long as they do not fish in troubled waters with the big guys, they are bad officials, bad officials, and bad officials, and should be excluded and suppressed.
This has led to the phenomenon that His Majesty annotated in the "Jianwen Canon" about the expulsion of good money from bad money.
So let's take a look at what kind of career environment gives this sentence the opportunity to grow and grow, and what kind of political ecological soil gives this sentence the nutritional power to confuse more people's hearts.
That is, the source of the public power of officials is not the state, but the ignorant emperors before the Ming Dynasty.
As long as the officials serve the emperor well and help the emperor maintain the supremacy of his imperial power in the country's legal power and have a high degree of stability, then the emperor will give gifts to these officials and give them more public power.
Officials are corrupt, and the emperor can turn a blind eye.
The scholar class is big, and the emperor can also turn a blind eye.
Even the officials turned public power into private power, and the emperor still turned a blind eye!
So under the rule of the ignorant emperor, all dynasties perished.
'The county order that broke the family, and the government Yin who destroyed the door', colleagues, this sentence reveals how tyrannical those illegal officials are, and how poor the people under their rule are.
We can't let this erroneous philosophy of being an official continue to exist, otherwise, the common people should jump and scold their mothers!
Colleagues, now you walk out of the auditorium, out of the palace, go to Nanjing City to have a look, go to Quanzhou, Guangzhou to have a look, the times have changed!
The source of the state's public power is not heaven-granted, but is derived based on the people's credibility in the public.
The public power in your hands comes from the imperial court, and the public power of the imperial court comes from the people.
When you use this official philosophy to wreak havoc on the people's credibility in the imperial court, the public power in your hands will naturally be undermined and reduced.
When the people lose all their credibility in the imperial court, you guys are not fart! ”
In the auditorium, Zhu Gaochi, Xia Yuanji and other cabinet ministers all looked solemn, sat up, and listened attentively to Xu Buji's speech.
On the study and study of the "Jianwen Canon", Xu Buji is a well-deserved first person in the dynasty, not to mention, Xu Buji, who has interpreted the spirit of Zhu Yunwen, and added his own vernacular, which is more easy to understand and shocking.
"What do we have in our hearts as officials? Your Majesty has said many times that let us write less flowery articles to praise him, less greetings to him during the New Year's holidays, and more think about how to make this country better.
The truth comes from the mouth of the saints, and the great monarch father said such a sentence, 'serve the people', and this sentence is inscribed on the plaque of every yamen.
What is in my heart is not all the monarch's father, the country, and the people!
And on both sides of the people's side, there is only right and wrong.
If you work hard in the right direction, even if you are stupid and can't speak, it is really politically correct to work hard, but if you move in the wrong direction, you are talking about the sky and spitting lotus. Mistakes are always mistakes!
True or false is a question of judgment or falsehood, he only has a score and a zero score, and there is no compromise and no moderation.
The ancestor said well, take the law from it, and only get it. When you are an official, you only think that you are not good or bad, not high or low, the only result you achieve in your administration must be wrong!
Unite and think, the heart is the people, what is the thought, the thought is how to let the people live a good life, don't let the people scold the mother!
If you don't have this idea, no matter how much you read the book, no matter how good the article is, it's useless.
When an official does not have this heart and does not have this thought, he must not continue to be an official, and simply resign and return to his hometown, which can be regarded as the last good thing to do for the people, I have to thank him for the more than 70 million people of Daming! ”
Looking at Xu Buji's scolding Fang Xuan and talking about public intentions and thoughts, Zhu Gaochi below breathed a long sigh of relief.
I finally knew why the emperor chose Xu Buji to be the head of the cabinet.
This guy can turn the entire country of Daming upside down.
The emperor is taking Xu Buji to be the captain of the death team.
If it is done well, the development of this country may be perfectly derailed to the path that the emperor wants to see.
And even if it is not done well, the emperor will come forward and use his supreme prestige and influence in this country to quell the turbulent thoughts and land smoothly.
There are many things that you have to try bravely, and use time to prove what is right and wrong.
And Quan Daming, who can have the ability to support the emperor to exercise this great change, is only at the height of thought, which perfectly fits Zhu Yunwen's Xu Buji.
Let him be the head of this cabinet, and he will be in his proper position.
