Chapter 405: Who is the richest man
Zhu Houxi's questions were thrown, including Zhang Fujing, his forehead was sweating, and it was a bead of sweat the size of a bean, shining with a crystal luster, even he couldn't bear it, let alone other elders.
Liu Jian, a national veteran who was over 90 years old, trembled and stood up. Trying to turn to Zhu Houxi's face, under the support of the two elders in their seventies, Yang Yiqing and Xie Qian, he finally knelt down, and the old man burst into tears.
"Your Majesty is wise and martial, but since Emperor Taizong, I am a rare holy lord in the Ming Dynasty, and the ministers have the honor to assist Your Majesty and create a prosperous industry, which is a blessing from the cultivation of three lives. The ministers of the world must do their best to do things for Your Majesty. If anyone is disloyal, His Majesty can only kill him, even if it is like in the Taizu period, it is excusable to severely punish the country and rule the country. The monarch and the minister are always righteous, only the rebellious ministers who are blinded by the oil and have lost their conscience dare to set rules for the monarch's father, this is a deception!! ”
After Liu Jian finished speaking, he was prostrate on the ground, and Yang Yiqing and Xie Qian also hurriedly agreed.
"Your Majesty, what Boss Liu said is very true, the ministers implore Your Majesty, don't be confused, let alone be bewitched by villains!"
Zhu Houxi smiled, "Really? Elder Xie Ge, Elder Liu Ge, Elder Yang Ge, don't worry, I have said it, today is just a normal discussion, you always kneel and kneel, which makes me confused. ”
"Wang Yue, you say, you said that I don't need to follow the rules?"
Wang Yue said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the minister feels that the rules are everywhere and all-encompassing. For example, Grandpa Tai has set the Emperor's ancestral precepts, should Your Majesty abide by them? Also, among the six departments in the court, their mission is to advise the monarch's father, Kuang Zhengjundao, their suggestions, should Your Majesty listen to them? In addition, all kinds of sacrifices, rituals, rules and regulations, and customs that have lasted for thousands of years, and the ministers think that everyone, including Your Majesty, must abide by all kinds of rules, and no one can jump out of the rules. ”
Zhu Houxi smiled, obviously very satisfied.
"That's right, you see, what Wang Yue said is the truth, and that's what I asked you to say. I might as well make it clear to you, I don't want to do whatever I want yet, I won't easily give power to eunuchs, and I won't build leopard houses all over the world with draft girls. Even when I go out to patrol the border, I will refrain from going out to work and waste money unless necessary...... I say this to tell you that I am a rule-abider, and I think you can guard against me without thinking about thieves. I also want to be close to the virtuous ministers, far from the villain, and I also want the monarch and the minister to be of one heart, one and the other, with one heart and one mind. ”
Zhu Houxi said with a smile: "These truths are right, what I hope for is nothing more than to explain things clearly and clearly...... Just like what Zhang Ge Lao said just now, it must be on paper and let the people of the world know about it. Let's write clearly and explain clearly, so we don't have to indulge in messy trivialities, let alone one thing, arguing endlessly, and wasting energy. ”
"As for the effort saved, what can we do? For example, how to deal with the barbarians in the four directions, how to improve the people's livelihood, how to enrich the country and strengthen the army, and how to promote education...... All in all, it's about doing something useful. ”
"I might as well make it clearer, in the ancestral teachings of the Emperor Ming, there is a father who dies and a son succeeds, and a brother dies and a brother who dies, but I don't make it clear, whether it is a son-in-law or a concubine, a son of virtue, or a son of love. This brother is the same as the last brother, although it is easy to talk about brothers, but what about cousins? Is it also going to be sent out in order? ”
"If you can explain all these things clearly and write them on paper, there will be no room for the little ones to go up and down, and when they encounter things, they will not be in a mess. Moreover, the Emperor Ming Zu Xun has already mentioned it, we are just refining the provisions and explaining the vague places, which does not violate the ancestral teachings. ”
On the contrary, if you make it clear, you can avoid some people from clinging to specious things, messing around, and being unreasonable. I think that this law has been decided, and it is not immutable, but it cannot be changed at will, and if you want to adjust and revise it, you must revise it according to the rules. All in all, there must be rules for everything. ”
"If we make it clear here, the hearts of the people in the world will not be chaotic." Zhu Houxi set his eyes on the contemporary Yan Shenggong, and said with a smile: "Especially the Taoist system, this matter must be made clear, in this case, Kong Qing does not have to be afraid, otherwise someone will assassinate the ministers of the court under the banner of Kong Meng, and I will learn from Jing Ke to leave, I don't know whose crime to treat......"
When Zhu Houxi said this, he smiled slightly, "Wang Yue, the Queen Mother called you over to discuss the matter of marriage." Spend a good full moon, celebrate the whole world, I have to handle your marriage well. Let you all discuss here, and I will go with you to see the Queen Mother. ”
In public, the marriage was mentioned, which made Wang Yue blush.
He turned around and left with Zhu Houxi...... When the monarch and ministers left, the ministers present still did not move, and many people were dumbfounded, all pondering the meaning of the Son of Heaven.
After a long time, someone noticed that Liu Jian was kneeling there and wouldn't move!
"Look at the old lady!"
The big guy helped Liu Jian up, but found that this old Liu Ge's face was bruised, and if it was a little later, it was estimated that he would be able to carry it away directly.
The big guy made a lot of effort to rescue Liu Jian.
The elder opened his eyes and said the first thing he said, "This day is going to change!" ”
Everyone was amazed again, could it be that even this old man, who was accustomed to seeing wind and rain, had nothing to do?
It was Yang Yiqing, he coughed and said: "Your Majesty has just made it clear, this rule is set for everyone, and the Son of Heaven can't do whatever he wants." Let's set the rules, like, just like this matter in front of us, Your Majesty can't raise a big prison, otherwise who knows how many people will die! ”
In a word, it scared people enough.
After thinking about it carefully, it also makes sense.
Otherwise, the assassination of the favored ministers of the Son of Heaven will be investigated, and the next Lanyu case, Hu Weiyong's case, there is no doubt at all. Zhu Houxi can definitely do it.
Even if the emperor can't do it, isn't there still Wang Yue!
So, or did the big guy make it?
Obviously, this is not the case.
Xie Qian can see it clearly, even if there are more rules, the emperor is in an advantageous position. On the contrary, there are many courtiers, and the more detailed the rules, the more constraints the big guys will receive.
In this matchup, they are the undoubted losers, and they have lost completely.
Zhang Fujing had a smile on his face, he was so happy.
Master and His Majesty played this hand, and it was simply wonderful.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is really good that the servants think that Your Majesty meant. Take the Qingzhang that I have always advocated, for example, it has been pushed to Henan and Shandong, and in the direction of Shandong, some people have stood up and said that they should be sympathetic to the saints and Miao descendants, not too harsh and ruthless, and not be able to deceive teachers and destroy ancestors. This is a specious statement, it is not good to say that we are deceiving the teacher and destroying the ancestors, or that someone is disobeying the ancestors! Since Your Majesty has a will, let's talk about it, set the rules, and write them down on paper, so that the world can see it, and if it makes sense, I will admit it. ”
"If it doesn't make sense, then we have to implement Qingzhang, and whoever stops it is against the law of the country! Also, there must be rules for local officials, and if anyone violates the yang and the yin, and gives and receives privately, there must be no mercy! The cabinet and the ministry must have an attitude towards all officials! The officials are strict, and they are not allowed to tolerate adultery! ”
After Zhang Fujing finished speaking, Jia Yong did not hesitate, and immediately said: "I seconded Zhang Ge Lao, the law of the country is the law of the country, and the rules are the rules. ”
Hearing Jia Yong's words, many people vomited.
You're a lackey, it's useless to wash it!
Everyone thought so, but they didn't dare to say it, as Yang Yiqing, Fei Hong, and Shi Xuan left the cabinet, there were only three elders left in the cabinet.
In the past, Xie Qian could still suppress the other two people by virtue of his qualifications, but now the wind direction has changed.
It is not easy for Xie Ge Lao to keep himself, let alone others.
It's really going to change!
Where will this huge Daming ship go, it's really scary!
And the initiator of all this is this guy named Wei Xiping, he is self-righteous, and he still wants to be famous through the ages, and he wants to leave Jing Ke, on a par, you can dream about it!
A group of bigwigs in the DPRK and China showed their hideous fangs to him.
"Thoroughly investigate and find out all the eighteen generations of his ancestors! No mercy! If you don't do this, how can the law of the country exist! ”
The eyes of the people of the three law divisions were red, and the fear in their hearts was poured out on Wei Xiping's head, and this confident madness collapsed at this moment......
is different from the bleak wind and rain on the side of the ministers, on the side of the Empress Dowager Jiang, it is really a bright wind and a bright moon, and the moon is in the sky.
Mongolian Beji Antalun smiled like a flower, "Queen Mother, I agreed to marry Yang Bo, he is the person my daughter likes!" ”
Empress Dowager Jiang smiled, "If you are willing, the queen mother will naturally be fulfilled." It's just that his writing doesn't seem to be so good, right? ”
Antalon didn't care, "How can Wen Cai compare to money, he told me that the Yang family is the richest man in the Ming Dynasty, and the wealth is comparable to the country!" ”
Empress Dowager Jiang raised her eyebrows, Yang Bo, this kid really has a camel and doesn't brag! Does he dare to brag about being the richest man with that little bit of copper? Where did you put the mourning family? Where did you put Wang Yue?
