After finishing everything and replacing all the officials with his own people, Zhu Youxiao had a very deep experience, that is, he had fewer things to do.

The ministers in the court can take charge of themselves and don't have to worry about anything. The most important point is that no one will point fingers at the affairs of their harem anymore, and no one will think about writing books to advise them all day long.

That's a very good thing for me. As a result, Zhu Youxiao's harem life began to become harmonious.

This is actually the result of Zhu Youxiao's cleaning of the inner court, and no one in the harem dares to blow up the assassination again.

On this day, Zhu Youxiao was accompanying Empress Zhang to fly a kite, the two of them were talking and laughing, and there was a circle of chamberlains and palace maids standing around.

Everyone looked at the most noble man and woman in the world with envy.

The palace maids looked at Empress Zhang with envy, His Majesty's favor for Empress Zhang was known to everyone.

"Emperor, Fangzheng is here." Zhu Youxiao turned around to drink tea, Chen Hong came to Zhu Youxiao's side and said respectfully: "The national abbot is also here." ”

Hearing his words, Zhu Youxiao nodded quietly, and then continued to fly kites with Empress Zhang with a smile, as if he had no idea about the arrival of the abbot and Fang Zhenghua.

It wasn't until he was tired of playing that Zhu Youxiao took Queen Zhang's little hand and walked back.

Looking at Empress Zhang, who was slightly sweaty on her forehead, Zhu Youxiao said with a smile: "Go and prepare, I and the queen want to bathe." ”

"Yes, Emperor." Chen Hong hurriedly agreed.

Hearing Zhu Youxiao's words, Empress Zhang's face was slightly red, she glanced at her majesty delicately, and followed him to take a bath.

After an indescribable bath, Zhu Youxiao changed his clothes and returned to the Qianqing Palace.

Tapping lightly on the table, Zhu Youxiao groaned: "Go and call the two of them!" ”

"Yes, Emperor." Chen Hong agreed and hurriedly went to pass the word.

It didn't take long for Zhang Guoji and Fang Zhenghua to walk in from outside.

"Your Majesty, Ministers."

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Fang Zhenghua and Zhang Guoji, and asked expressionlessly, "Is there something wrong with the two of you coming over today?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, about the affairs of the Internal Affairs Office, the minister wants to talk to Your Majesty." Zhang Guoji said with a serious face.

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Zhang Guoji quietly, nodded and said, "Aiqing has something to say, just say it!" ”

"The minister came here today to talk to His Majesty about the selection of officials from the Ministry of Internal Affairs." Zhang Guoji arched his hand and said: "The minister wants to select the officials of the Internal Affairs Office through recruitment. In this way, the internal government can recruit more talent. ”

"What's more, the Ministry of Internal Affairs is meant to serve His Majesty, and this practice can demonstrate His Majesty's strategy of using talents in an eclectic manner. At the same time, it can also give those who have no hope of the imperial examination a chance to enter the internal affairs office to be loyal to His Majesty, which is a way to kill two birds with one stone. Therefore, the minister wanted to select the officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs through open recruitment. ”

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Zhang Guoji, nodded with a smile and said, "This is a good way, then do what Aiqing said." ”

It seems that he didn't expect his majesty to agree so easily, Zhang Guoji was slightly stunned, and quickly stood up and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will do his best, and will definitely not let His Majesty down, and he will definitely do things beautifully." ”

Nodding slightly, Zhu Youxiao said with a smile: "I believe in Aiqing." ”

"The minister and the others retired first."

After the matter was over, Zhang Guoji and Fang Zhenghua also left.

It's just that after a turn, Fang Zhenghua came back again, "Emperor." ”

Zhu Youxiao didn't leave either, waiting for Fangzheng here. After glancing at Fang Zhenghua, he said expressionlessly: "Let's talk about it!" ”

"Yes, Emperor." Fang Zhenghua hurriedly agreed, bowed down and said, "Actually, the minister didn't make much effort. Although no one is looking for Guozhang anymore on the surface these days, there are still a lot of people looking for it in private. It's just that they are much more humble than last time, and they do it more through bribery, hoping to arrange for someone to enter the internal affairs office. ”

Zhu Youxiao nodded, he knew something about this matter, because someone had already reported it to him.

However, Zhu Youxiao didn't debunk it, turned his head to look at Fang Zhenghua, frowned and asked, "Who gave this idea to the national master?" Open call for help? Some people forget everything when they get into the eyes of money. ”

"Emperor Hui, it is said that he is a confidant of the national abbot, called Liu Bing." Fang Zhenghua said with some hesitation.

"Then make contact and make him obedient." Zhu Youxiao said expressionlessly.

Fang Zhenghua was about to agree, but Zhu Youxiao said again: "Forget it, let Chen Hong handle this matter." ”

"Yes, Emperor."

After a moment of silence, Zhu Youxiao said with a solemn face: "You just keep an eye on people, don't make any mistakes." When the time comes, bring the list to me and show it, and I will sift through some of them, and then let these people into the Ministry of Internal Affairs. ”

Fang Zhenghua said with some hesitation: "Emperor, the ...... over there"

"Is there anything going on with him?" Zhu Youxiao asked with some doubts.

"Talent-based action is what you should do. You don't have to worry about anything else, and you don't know anything. Do you understand? Zhu Youxiao found that Fang Zhenghua's head was a little straight, maybe this is a common problem of people who practice martial arts.

If it was Wei Zhongxian or Chen Hong, it would be thorough. This Fangzhenghua actually has to say it so clearly.

But that's fine, at least Fang Zhenghua won't blindly understand and mess things up. Let's be clear, at least he knows exactly what to do.

"Yes, Your Majesty. The slave understood. Fang Zhenghua hurriedly agreed.

First of all, through open selection, this means that the way of selecting officials by the Ministry of Internal Affairs is actually another disguised imperial examination, and those who are unwilling in the officialdom can go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Once they entered the Ministry of Internal Affairs, they were pitted against the officials in the officialdom. Officials from the formal imperial examination will definitely look down on them, and they will inevitably fight back.

The most critical point is that Zhang Guoji will offend a large number of civil officials by doing this.

For civil officials, the Internal Affairs Office is their own meat, and they want to swallow it at any time, and the easiest way is to transfer officials from other yamen to supplement the Internal Affairs Office.

There are many officials in the six ministries who want to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In such a situation, once an open recruitment is chosen, what should these civil servants do?

Many bigwigs want to reach out to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, or arrange for their own people to enter the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If it is really an open selection, what will these bigwigs do in such a situation?

Zhang Guoji will definitely not be able to hide it, and it is estimated that he will be impeached soon.

Of course, this is not the first big pit, it is certain that you will offend people by doing this, so what Zhang Guoji is doing now can be regarded as decent.

The second big pit is the bribes that Zhang Guoji received. If you accept bribes, you have to arrange people, but who is arranged to enter the Internal Affairs Office is in the hands of Fang Zhenghua, and it is more His Majesty Zhu Youxiao who is in charge.

The person selected by Zhu Youxiao himself naturally could not be the person who accepted bribes from Zhang Guoji. In other words, Zhang Guoji will offend some people again. These people sent money to Zhang Guoji, but he didn't get them done, will those people be angry with him?

It's just that Zhang Guoji's identity is special, he is the queen's father, and it is estimated that no one has sued him, but his reputation must be stinky.

If these two pots are smashed, Zhang Guoji will be directly crippled by half, and it is basically impossible to mix well in the Internal Affairs Office in the future.

In other words, when the entire shelf of the Internal Affairs Office is erected, his father-in-law should step down.

offended so many people, Zhang Guoji had no way to do things in the Internal Affairs Office. Of course, this is also Zhu Youxiao's earliest plan.

That's why Zhu Youxiao will explain to Fang Zhenghua, even if no one goes to his father-in-law and says that he wants to adopt the method of selection and recruitment, he will arrange for others to talk about it.

"Alright, let's go back and do our jobs!" Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said.

"The slave and maid take their leave." Fang Zhenghua agreed, and then bowed and retreated.

After Fang Zhenghua left, Zhu Youxiao sighed softly.

Things are finally going to be on the right track, and now I don't need to do anything more, I just need to watch and wait steadily.

After Zhang Guoji and Fang Zhenghua returned to the Internal Affairs Office, news came out immediately.

The government will adopt a system of selection and recruitment, and all those who have made meritorious contributions above the level can sign up for the election; Once you are successful, you can go to work in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

As soon as this news came out, the entire Jingshi was instantly surging.

Because of the affairs of the Royal Academy, Jingshi gathered a lot of scholars. No one expected that the Internal Affairs Office would do the same, so there was a lot of discussion.

In contrast to the situation in which there is support and opposition among the people, it can be said that there is one-sided opposition in the court, and no one at all approves of what the Internal Affairs Office is doing this time.

The Sixth Branch began to impeach Zhang Guoji, saying that he was cronyistic and accepted bribes.

Of course, this kind of thing is true, but Zhu Youxiao chose to ignore it.

Zhang Guoji's reputation began to decline rapidly, and many readers said that he had changed, and he had now become no different from those relatives.

At the same time, Zhang Guoji added more visits from those nobles and relatives.

At the same time, the gifts sent by the nobles and relatives also became more and more valuable, and the Zhang Mansion showed a prosperous appearance.

This has led to Zhang Guoji's reputation becoming worse and worse among readers.

The capital is lively and noisy, and the Liaodong side is still the tail of winter, but it is also starting to become warmer.

Since the last war, Liaodong has also been stable for a long time.

Jiannu did not send anyone to harass him again, which made Xiong Tingbi breathe a sigh of relief, he could safely clean up the defense of Liaodong.

"Lord Bear." A voice suddenly sounded behind Xiong Tingbi.

Xiong Tingbi turned around and looked over and found that it was the Wei Dynasty.

This father-in-law from the palace, Xiong Tingbi didn't dare to offend, so he hurriedly greeted him with a smile, and said, "I've seen Father-in-law Wei." ”

Since the last time he came to announce the decree, this Father-in-law Wei has not left, as if he was waiting for something.

Xiong Tingbi didn't dare to ask, this father-in-law wouldn't leave if he didn't leave, and Liaodong was not afraid of him eating. However, Grandpa Wei hasn't come over for some days, and today it seems that he has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace.

"Lord Xiong, the things we are waiting for are here. Why don't you go and see it with our family? Wei Chao said with a smile: "I believe Lord Xiong will definitely like it." ”
