Chapter 1070: The Way of the Court
I only heard Hongli say excitedly: "Erchen is not timid, but he just doesn't want to bring trouble to Huang Ama anymore." β
Yin Zhen nodded slightly, stared at Hongli's eyes and said word by word: "If you want to be a man who stands up to the sky, you can't be afraid of trouble, on the contrary, you have to try to solve trouble." β
"Erchen understands what Huang Ama means, and Erchen will try to do it." As soon as Hongli finished saying this, Yin Zhen picked up and said: "Then you tell me now, what method should be used to solve the trouble of the early dynasty today, those ministers will not be limited to verbal flicks, I believe that soon, there will be folds coming up, one or two, or maybe more than ten or twenty, what should I do?" β
Hongli understood that Yinzhen was testing himself, he lowered his head and thought nervously, wanting to find a feasible solution from the knowledge he had learned in the past ten years. After a long time, he finally thought of a method, "For gentlemen, they should be frank and open, not afraid of anything, if they want to impeach, let them impeach, and the sons have a clear conscience, are not afraid of them, and can even explain to them face to face." β
After listening to his words, Yinzhen laughed, just when Hongli thought that his answer was correct, he heard Yinzhen say: "Hongli, you are too naΓ―ve, above the court, you are not talking about a gentleman, but about conspiracy." Seeing Hongli's puzzled face, he said again: "The only ones who can prescribe themselves with the words and deeds of a gentleman and follow them all their lives are saints, and although the rest read the books of sages, they cannot be exempted from worldliness and selfishness." If they impeach, I am afraid that in the end, you, the elder brother, will be imprisoned in the Zongren Mansion for committing the crime of transgression, as for the defense, it is even more of a joke, these people are full of poetry and books, and stand out among tens of millions of readers, do you think you can argue with them? β
Yinzhen's words made Hongli speechless, and he realized that he had thought things too simply.
"But it's no wonder you, you stay in the palace all day, everything you see and hear is a corner of the palace, and you don't have a deep awareness of these natures." Yin Zhen slowly walked off the bridge with his hands in his hands, and said as he walked: "In fact, for those ministers, what you need to do is not to ignore them, nor to take them too seriously, but to remember Zhang Chi's way, you can listen to them, but you can't be swayed by them, otherwise it is a puppet in their hands, and there have been many such examples in the Ming Dynasty." Well, speaking of which, I will test you, which minister will suppress the emperor the most in the Ming Dynasty. β
Hongli is very familiar with history, and when he heard this, he replied without thinking about it: "If you return to the emperor Ama, it is Zhang Juzheng." β
"Yes, if you want to avoid the recurrence of Zhang Juzheng's disaster in my Qing Dynasty, you must firmly control those ministers, and let them do things for you, but not too much." When he said this, Yin Zhen thought of Nian Qianyao, and anyone who dared to threaten the imperial power must be removed.
"Therefore, if this matter is allowed to be dealt with by me, I will first leave the folds they handed over, so that they can understand my attitude of not wanting to deal with this matter, if they are not interested and want to challenge my bottom line, then they should once again understand who has the final say in this court."
Hongli frowned and said, "Huang Ama, this is different from what the emperor's grandfather used to teach his sons. The emperor's grandfather always said that he should be lenient to his subordinates, listen to their opinions more, and give them a chance to correct even if they have done something wrong. β
Yin Zhen stopped and said, "Your imperial grandfather is right, but time has changed, and some things have changed." At the beginning, when the subordinates were lenient, the subordinates would be grateful to Dade, but after a long time, they would gradually forget, take it for granted, and even think that this world has their share. β
In fact, Kangxi's benevolent government in his later years made corrupt officials pile up and the treasury empty, which affected the operation of the entire Qing Dynasty. β
These things are still a little too complicated for today's Hongli, so that he can't fully understand, when Yinzhen has walked to the lake, he suddenly caught up, and said solemnly: "Huang Ama, the son wants to receive an errand." β
Yin Zhen glanced at him with interest and said, "Why do you suddenly have this idea?" β
"What Huang Ama said just now is right, what the sons see and see has been limited to the palace, if you want to really understand the meaning of Huang Amma's words just now, the only way to step out of the palace ban and increase your knowledge can really help Huang Amma."
Yin Zhen smiled forgively and said, "It's not good for you to have this idea, but you have to wait until you turn sixteen." β
Hongli nodded with some disappointment, walked for a while, and asked with some curiosity: "Huang Ama, did you also start working on errands at the age of sixteen?" β
"This is natural, our elder brother of the Qing Dynasty must be allowed to open his teeth and build a mansion at this age, and then lead the errand. Why do you suddenly ask this? β
Hongli replied: "Erchen used to follow the emperor's grandfather is land, and often heard the emperor's grandfather praise Huang Ama for doing a good job, saying that Huang Ama is a person who does practical things, and if Erchen can have half of Huang Ama's ability in the future, he will be satisfied."
Yin Zhen Ha said with a smile: "I have been an elder brother for forty-five years, and I have seen many more things than you, if you are also an elder brother for forty-five years, you will be the same as me." Speaking of this, he sighed with emotion: "But I am not as old as your imperial grandfather to succeed to the throne, so if you want to be the emperor's elder brother who has studied me for more than 40 years, I am afraid that you will not have a chance." β
Hongli saw that Yinzhen was a little lost, and hurriedly said: "Erchen believes that Huang Ama will definitely be able to live forever, don't say that the emperor brother of forty-five years, even if it is fifty years, it doesn't matter if it is sixty years." β
Seeing his serious look, Yin Zhen smiled and said: "You kid, who did you learn from such a flamboyant tongue, fifty years, that I am nearly 100 years old, throughout the past dynasties, I have never heard of an emperor who can live so long." β
"Others can't, Huang Ama must be." Hongli said with a firm expression: "From now on, the sons will pray to the gods and Buddhas every day to bless the health of the Emperor Ama Holy Body and the boundless longevity. β
Yin Zhen nodded and didn't say anything, if you look closely, you will find that the corners of his eyes are a little moist.
On the other side, Hongshi did not go back to his own mansion after leaving the court, but went to Fanghu Shengjing, Nala was feeding a parrot with colorful feathers, Xiao Ningzi saw that she was in a bad mood during this time, so she went to the Internal Affairs Office to ask for a parrot to come.
In the salute of the palace people, Hongshi came to the Nala clan, bowed and said: "The son of the minister to the emperor to say goodbye, the emperor is auspicious." β
