In a seemingly ordinary room on the west side of the Thousand Steps Corridor to the north of the front door, a slightly dim light is scattered through the panes, and several paper marks on the bookcase are placed on it very casually.

Lu Song picked it up again and looked at the top document that was not marked, and his face was complicated and a little relieved.

I don't know if this is something that barely makes the emperor feel a little comfortable in countless unhappy and frustrating news, and Lu Song doesn't know if this is just the emperor's unintentional words, or if he really pays attention to this person, or where this person goes?

All in all, there's nothing wrong with being careful.

After a gentle tapping of his fingers, he finally put it down, "Sort it out and present it to Your Majesty." ”

The gloomy face symbolized that Emperor Yonglong's mood had never been truly comfortable since he ascended the throne.

At this time, he realized that this big throne was really not something that anyone could sit on.

It turned out that I felt how relaxed and comfortable my father's reign was, if I wanted to go down to Jiangnan, I would go to Jiangnan, if I wanted to hunt, if I wanted to go to the summer, I would go to the summer, and I could even entrust the government to a few first assistants and second-assistants for a month or two, but I didn't ask, how chic and free?

But how did it become so unbearable when it came to his own hands?

He would never admit that this was his lack of moral ability, but he did catch up with the not-so-good time.

In fact, he also knows that many problems are left by his father, but since he wants to sit in this big position, how can he not even take on this responsibility?

Countless people are still staring at this throne under their buttocks, and Emperor Yonglong has never relaxed his vigilance in this regard.

I read dozens of pieces in one breath, and the more I looked at it, the more irritated I became, and the more I looked at it, the more depressed I became, and I couldn't help but sweep the pieces under the imperial case in a fit of anger, and the attendants next to me all held their breath.

Emperor Yonglong glanced at the attendants and companions standing outside the door and in every corner opposite, how many of them were truly loyal to him, and how many were the people who were placed by his father's side?

Subconsciously didn't want to think about this problem, he never thought of replacing these people at once, if his father really asked to replace all these old people, I was afraid that there would only be one result, thinking of this Zhang Shen shuddered.

Emperor Yonglong knew very well that only by firmly sitting in this position and not giving other people who coveted this position a chance could he slowly regain his disadvantage from his father's hands, and before that, everything needed to be patient.

The question is, will God give himself so much time?

Patience is not the same as doing nothing, doing nothing, Xiao Gui Cao followed, it may not be the best strategy, and the gloomy gaze was cast outside the hall again.

One companion quietly came over to pick it up again, sorted them out one by one and put them back on the table, while the other gently pushed another stack of small paper sticks with obviously different regulations in front of the case.

He reclined back in his chair and picked up a folded paper stick with a special mark on the leather.

Lu Song is still reliable, and the news he brings may be as heart-wrenching, but Zhang Shen knows that he can't help but look at it, and he doesn't even dare to face this reality, so it's best not to sit in this position, and give it up as soon as possible to let people seek stability.

After flipping through a few copies, Emperor Yonglong's mood slowly calmed down.

The news was not pleasant, but he was able to accept it, which was expected.

"Huh?" His gaze twined lightly, pulling away from the folded contents.

The Long Forbidden Captain submits the secret report and the secret fold is like this, the title is clear at a glance, and then the details are below, if you are interested, you will open it and take a look, otherwise only one title is enough to understand the approximate.

After reading the content, Emperor Yonglong put it down and leaned his back on the back of the imperial chair.

It's a bit interesting, I didn't expect this little guy to be a little loyal, and he can even say such a thing.

However, for Emperor Yonglong, this is not important, the key is the attitude of the two mountain chiefs of Qingtan Academy towards this point of view.

If this argument was placed in those academies in Jiangnan, I am afraid that it would have been criticized a long time ago, and those unscrupulous literati only knew that they were reckless, but they could not come up with the slightest countermeasure, and Emperor Yonglong's dislike for Jiangnan scholars was no less than that of those who coveted his throne.

Of course, this kind of disgust can only be hidden in the heart forever, and the superior can never act according to his own feelings and dislikes, which is what his father has always warned himself.

Qi Yongtai and Emperor Yingzhen Yonglong naturally understood, these two were scholars who grew up rapidly during the reign of their father, but they were not particularly valued by their father, and they were constantly in conflict with those elders, so naturally the final outcome was to dismiss the official and leave.

However, this did not affect the reputation of these two people in Shilin, and even the fame of these two people has reached a higher level.

Emperor Yonglong was concerned about the attitudes of these two people.

Noncommittal, that's an attitude.

A very subtle attitude.

Of course, Emperor Yonglong knew how much uproar the establishment of tax and mine supervisors had caused in the entire court, and it could be said that the bullets of the imperial historian had long been piled up with imperial cases, but he didn't want to look at it.

Layoffs are simple, how to solve the gap?

The household department is not incompetent, but the hole left is too big, which Emperor Yonglong is still very clear, according to the household department, it can only be filled slowly.

But can the shortage of silver in the nine sides be solved slowly? Maybe one day the army mutinies, and the Tatars or Jurchens invade the side, but I am afraid that it will be you who will be pushed to the stove.

What can be done?

Donation is a double-edged sword, and it can even be said that this is the real drinking to quench thirst, of course Emperor Yonglong knows it, but if he doesn't take this road, there is no way out.

His face was constantly changing, and only the attendants beside Emperor Yonglong could see the tangled pain in the emperor's expression.

After a while, Emperor Yonglong slowly recovered his strength, only to find that the paper stick in his hand had been deformed.

His eyes fell fixedly on the paper stick, and Feng Keng's two words seemed to be still beating, stimulating Emperor Yonglong's thoughts.

In the end, he still put down the paper sign, he was too young, but Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen's attitudes seemed to be more intriguing, maybe they could be observed again.

******

Feng Ziying naturally didn't know that the little turmoil in this class had already been spread by someone with a heart, and even went up to heaven to hear it.

This kind of nighttime exposition and debate for several days in a row also made him feel more and more the difference of this era.

The mood and mentality of the scholars of "sharing the world with the scholars" seems to have completely followed the former Song Dynasty, and this is the case among the scholars in the north, and it is estimated that this mentality and mood will be stronger among the scholars in the south of the Yangtze River, but the problem is that the current dynasty has largely followed the regulations of the former Ming Dynasty, and many local contradictions are inevitable.

This is a complex Great Zhou that is neither Ming nor Song.

The attitude of the scholars to the imperial power is also complicated, both respect but also try their best to restrict, the emperor and the scholars share the world This sentence is deeply imprinted into their thinking, in Feng Ziying's view, this seems to be a kind of imperial power is ownership, but the governing power should be the mentality of the scholars, but the question is is is this?

Since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, this kind of game wrestling has never stopped, and it will not stop in the Great Zhou.

As the ownership of the imperial power has always been in the hands of the initiative, it is the unshirkable responsibility of every emperor to suppress and weaken the relative power, but weakening and suppressing too much will bring backlash, which every emperor knows very well in his heart, so maintaining a relatively weak and obedient cabinet of six departments is the greatest wish of every emperor of the Great Zhou.

But after ten years of hard study, how could the ministers easily give up their lifelong pursuit?

You have different opinions, I have vertical and horizontal, you have division and disintegration, and I have internal and external control.

This kind of atmosphere is inevitably brought to the academy, fortunately, under the unified point of view, this atmosphere is not strong, but Feng Ziying believes that once these students are admitted to the academy, they are afraid that they will inevitably be affected by what they see and hear in the academy, and this stage is often the most important.
