Although Empress Zhang has a lot of ideas and is a more knowledgeable woman, after all, she is still young and does not know much about the affairs of the court outside the palace, even if someone explains these things to her, there is no way to explain them thoroughly.

After listening to Zhu Youxiao's words, Empress Zhang felt that Zhu Youxiao was reasonable.

The most important thing is that if his father can do this, then it is indeed a good thing, because his father is not involved in the court, but manages some things for the royal family, and he can help as a queen.

So Empress Zhang said softly: "The concubine is afraid that her father will not do well, and when the time comes, it will delay Your Majesty's affairs." ”

Zhu Youxiao smiled and waved his hand.

This is a new thing, and it is not known who can do it well and who cannot. Besides, even if you don't do it well, it's nothing, it's just your own family's business, it's not a big deal. What can be the matter?

It's nothing more than embezzling some money. For Zhu Youxiao, this is not a big deal.

Because no matter who is asked to do it, it is the same, and this kind of corruption is unavoidable.

If you think that this little money is not a big deal in the future, you will not pursue Zhang Guoji, and this money will be given to him by yourself, otherwise the money given to Guozhang every year will be a lot.

If Zhang Guoji takes too much and feels distressed, then chase it back. When the time comes, you can also punish him for a crime, and follow his line to wipe out all those who are with him.

No matter how far Zhang Guoji goes, it is not a bad thing for himself. So Zhu Youxiao was not worried at all.

"Then this matter is decided!" Zhu Youxiao slapped the board directly, and said in an affirmative tone.

"Then it's all up to Your Majesty's arrangement." Empress Zhang said a little shyly.

Seeing Empress Zhang's appearance, Zhu Youxiao suddenly moved his index finger, reached out and pulled her hand up, and walked into the dormitory.

It's better to do some exercise that is good for your physical and mental health.

In the middle of the night, Empress Zhang only felt a little stuffy, in order not to disturb His Majesty, she got up from his arms lightly, only wrapped a middle coat and came to the window, stretched out her hand and gently pushed open the wooden window.

Looking at the light and silky clouds in the east and the rising bright moon, the clear light reflected the surroundings into a round of colored apertures, deep and shallow, if there is nothing.

Empress Zhang looked at the full moon in a daze, she thought of her father's entrustment before entering the palace, and remembered the heartfelt words of His Majesty Bai Ri, and her eyes couldn't help but be stained with a little sadness.

Early the next morning, Zhu Youxiao got up late, had breakfast under the service of Empress Zhang, and then left Kunning Palace.

On the way to the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Youxiao kept reminding himself that this kind of thing should be controlled in the future, otherwise this body really can't stand it, and he can't be young and unexpensive. If you break your body, you can't do anything.

After returning to the Qianqing Palace, Zhu You said to Chen Hong beside him: "Go and find a few cabinet scholars, I have something to discuss with them." ”

What Zhu Youxiao wants to say is naturally about the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

These things need the consent of several cabinet scholars, and at the same time, they need to cooperate, otherwise it will not be easy to do. However, Zhu Youxiao felt that it was not too difficult, because after all, this was a royal matter.

Another important point is that he has just announced to the world before, and the cabinet is embarrassed to disagree.

On the surface, this internal affairs office is more of a management palace and has little to do with their cabinet. After the separation of palace affairs and the court, the cabinet will be more relaxed.

As for the future development of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the cabinet is not expected to worry too much. Even if there is some caution, I will not predict what will happen to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Others don't know, but Zhu Youxiao, who came from later generations, knows very well that the Internal Affairs Office is a monster, and once it is released, it will definitely scare everyone like a tiger out of the cage.

Especially under the creation and blessing of his own emperor, the Internal Affairs Office will definitely become an existence that many people are afraid of.

In the original history, the development of the Qing Dynasty's internal affairs office was already very scary.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs was a unique institution in the Qing Dynasty, with as many as 3,000 officials, more than ten times the number of people in the most busy households, and it can be said that it was the largest organ in the Qing Dynasty, and it can be said that it penetrated into various affairs such as food, housing, and transportation.

All the affairs of the emperor are undertaken by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and there are 7 departments and 3 institutes directly under the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the main institutions are Guangchu, Duyu, Zhangyi, Accounting, Construction, Shenxing, and Qingfeng, which are respectively in charge of the imperial finances, treasury, guards, mountain and catch, etiquette, Huangzhuang tax, engineering, punishment, animal husbandry and other matters.

In addition, the Shangqi Yuan manages the royal horses, the Armed Forces Institute is responsible for the manufacture and storage of umbrella covers, saddle armor, knives, guns, bows and arrows, etc., and the Fengchen Yuan is in charge of the management and repair of various gardens, collectively referred to as the Seven Divisions and Three Hospitals.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs also has more than 30 affiliated offices, including the Sanori Division, which can be said to be located all over the country.

As long as you want to use the Internal Affairs Office to do things, there is no place where the tentacles of the Internal Affairs Office cannot reach, whether it is the more sensitive salt or iron in the country, or anything in various places, as long as the Internal Affairs Office wants to intervene, you can find a name.

This will be a very large yamen, and at the same time, it will also be the yamen that the emperor has the final say.

From the beginning of its establishment, this yamen was under the control of his own emperor, so there was no possibility of being controlled by others. Because in terms of the appointment of officials, this is a yamen that is completely inclined to the emperor, including many chamberlains and palace maids.

Several cabinet scholars arrived soon, and they didn't know what Zhu Youxiao was looking for them. In fact, the court is busy now, and everyone has their own things to do.

Sun Chengzong and Xu Guangqi had to manage their own military departments and household departments while adapting to the cabinet, so they were naturally very busy, and it would take some time to straighten out all the relationships between the upper and lower levels.

In addition, Han Yi is adjusting to the position of the first assistant scholar of the cabinet, and at the same time, he needs to coordinate the relationship between the various factions in the court.

In addition, they are busy with the adjustment of officials, and you must know that the changes of the central government often represent local changes, and there are many positions that need to be adjusted. The simplest thing is to replace your own person, which is also a very time-consuming and energy-consuming thing.

The only one who is slightly better and easier may be Huang Kezhang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, who has not changed much since he entered the cabinet, but he needs to do a lot of things, after all, he is also a cabinet scholar.

After the four of them arrived, they bowed down and saluted Zhu Youxiao, "The ministers will see Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "Everyone, please be exempt!" ”

After several people stood up, Zhu Youxiao spoke: "I brought you Aiqing over today, in fact, there is something I want to discuss with you. In the past few days in the palace, I have also thought about some things, so I want to make some changes. ”

When several people heard this, their spirits all became nervous.

You know, the most fearful thing for a few of them to hear right now is change.

For them now, stability trumps everything. As long as the current situation can be stabilized, a few of them are enough, and this is the last time they want to make changes.

Now that Zhu Youxiao has proposed to change, how can they not be worried?

Zhu Youxiao didn't look at their faces. This must be done on its own, and it must be done.

Glancing at Chen Hong, who was standing not far away, Zhu Youxiao ordered: "Send these documents to them and let them see them." ”

After speaking, Zhu Youxiao looked at several cabinet scholars, and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, let's take a look first, and then let's discuss it." ”

All four of them handed out a booklet and quickly flipped through it.

The contents of this booklet are not very complicated, but they are about the process of establishing the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Regarding the powers and responsibilities of the Internal Affairs Office, it is also very clear above, that is, to facilitate the management of all the affairs of His Majesty the Emperor.

As for the purpose of establishment, it is also written above, to put it bluntly, it is to make a cut with the imperial court, and then it is more convenient to govern. At least on the surface, such a jurisdiction will also reduce the phenomenon of superfluous people, save some money, and make each other less troublesome.

This is the original intention of Zhu Youxiao to establish this yamen, and it is also written on the booklet.

"I think that after the establishment of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, there is no need to go to you Aiqing for anything. At that time, the court will no longer have to quarrel about the affairs in the palace, and it will save trouble. Zhu Youxiao said with a smile.

This matter is not Zhu Youxiao's nonsense, but such a thing happened a long time ago.

Some people impeached the Donglin Party, saying that they were too concerned about the affairs of the emperor's harem, which was not something they should do, and the ministers of the court should govern the world well, and not always stare at the affairs of the emperor's harem every day.

Then some people retorted that the emperor's affairs are the affairs of the world, and the heavenly family is selfless.

The people who said that the Donglin Party was also said to be flattering to the emperor and had no bottom line. The two sides quarreled endlessly, and even now there is such a trend in the court, but after being made such a guy by Zhu Youxiao before, both sides are a lot more honest.

Zhu Youxiao is very disdainful of this statement.

What is called the selflessness of the heavenly family?

This is just a reason, a reason for the Donglin Party to really blend into the emperor's harem. To put it bluntly, what the Donglin Party needs is a tablet and a puppet emperor, just listen to them in everything, as for the emperor's own thoughts, it is not that important at all.

Several cabinet scholars present are all elites, and they have been in the officialdom for many years, so they naturally heard the meaning of their majesty.

They also saw that this young man didn't want to be controlled by them, and wanted to break free and have his own piece of heaven.

From what His Majesty did before, it can be seen that he is not an emperor who keeps to himself.

After reading the thing, several people didn't know how to decide for a while, because they really didn't know whether to agree or oppose. After all, no one knows what this internal affairs office was like when it was established.

"Your Majesty, I don't know how this Minister of the Interior was appointed?" At this time, Sun Chengzong spoke first.

Zhu Youxiao glanced at Sun Chengzong, his face did not change, but he smiled slightly.

Zhu Youxiao could probably guess what Sun Chengzong was thinking, he was worried that the Internal Affairs Office would eventually become a tool for himself, the emperor, to exploit the world, just like Dongchang and Jinyiwei.
