Zhu Houzhao's gaze swept over the ministers present, there was no expression on his face, but he was quite playful in his heart, obviously Min Jue, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and Li Dongyang were not all the way, and this Shangshu of the Criminal Department did not give Li Dongyang face. Thinking of this, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but turn his head to look at his father, obviously he had underestimated his father's field control of the court before.

"Your Majesty, do you want to keep some decency?" At this time, Hubu Shangshu Tong Zhong stood up and said with a little hesitation.

At this time, everyone was stunned, no one expected that Tong Zhong would actually stand up at this time, you must know that anyone can stand up at this time, but Tong Zhong can't, his identity and status are too sensitive. If he stood up and wanted to severely punish the Ye family, it would be easy to say, but he was interceding for the Ye family, and this matter would not be easy to do!

Tong Zhong is the head of the household, and Ye Qi is also the head of the house, and Tong Zhong's approach is inevitably suspicious of melons and plums, are you worried about yourself?

What's more, Ye Qi is still the deputy envoy of the Qincha in Yangzhou this time, it's not impossible for you to plead, but you have to say the truth, it's not that you can't say it if you leave some decency, but you can't say it.

Zhu Houzhao also looked at He Zhong with some surprise, he didn't understand this Tong Zhong's idea from beginning to end, when he first came into contact with He Zhong, he thought that this was an old official who was not involved in anything, but he could achieve a high position, and he was a great character. After a trip to Yangzhou, Ge Dan found that Tong Zhong was still talented.

When Jinyiwei was arresting people on a large scale, it was Tong Zhong who was responsible for the management of custody and the registration of records.

From beginning to end, Tong Zhong didn't make any mistakes, everything was handled in an orderly manner, at that time, Zhu Houzhao knew why his father let Tong Zhong be the head of the household department, of course it is possible to be a household secretary with such an ability.

Unless you want to reform and be aggressive, then a household book like Tong Zhong is enough to keep it, and it is a very good kind. Originally, Zhu Houzhao thought that he had seen through Tong Zhong, but he didn't expect him to give himself another surprise here, what was he going to do? Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but look at Li Dongyang, could it be that Tong Zhong was arranged by Li Dongyang?

Today's court meeting has just begun, but it is full of weirdness, although there are not many people, more than a dozen people, it is a small meeting, but this small meeting is not simple.

It seems to be peaceful, and it seems that everyone has reached a situation of severely punishing the Ye family, but from Tong Zhong standing up, things naturally took a turn.

After Tong Zhong finished saying this, he didn't speak again, the hall fell silent, and even Li Dongyang on the side didn't speak again, and a light sigh came from after a long time, Zhu Houzhao knew that it was his father's voice. At this time, it was time for Zhu Youzhu to make a final decision, and Zhu Houzhao also wanted to know what his father wanted to do, so he stood there and waited quietly.

"She Aiqing, why do you think you should leave some decency?" Zhu Youjiao's voice couldn't hear joy and anger, but he asked lightly.

"Back to Your Majesty, many people say that the salt politics case started because of Ye Gong, but before Ye Gong, was the Ming Salt Administration a clear one? Salt Road officials are not greedy for money? They don't run out of salt? Didn't the salt merchants sell the official salt as private salt? Tong Zhong said directly, and only said loudly: "No, they have always done this, not because Ye Gong did it after he changed the grain opening to the silver opening middle." ”

"After Ye Gong changed to accept the silver and opened the middle school, the salt class of the imperial court increased, which is also a fact, who can deny it? Ye Gong's only mistake is that the housekeeper is not strict. “

"Your Majesty, please see that Ye Gong has contributed a lot to the court and has contributed to the court, and has made meritorious contributions to the court, and give some dignity."

There was silence in the hall, no one expected that Tong Zhong would actually stand up at this time, and he said such decisive words, but his words were also silent, was he right? Yes and no. Before Nayin Kaizhong, he also had things, but it was far from being so serious, Ye Qi changed Nayin Kaizhong, and Yan Zheng was out of control.

At that time, the problem was the problem of salt introduction, the royal reward and noble embezzlement, the officials from all over the country stretched out their hands, and the nest was serious, and the silver was a bad government, and the biggest evil was not on the salt road, but in the impact on the border towns.

Whether Ye Qi changed the grain to the silver for the country or for his own sake, now there is no point in arguing, and the truth cannot be found, because Ye Qi is dead. Now what we have to see is how the imperial court wants to define this matter, of course, the ministers want to give Ye Qi a decent one, that is, to set Ye Qi is a policy for the country, but the royal family is not strict.

The reason for this is that the civil officials do not want to turn on the switch of favoritism, and once this happens, then there will be a lot of attacks from the court to the whole court.

Zhu Houzhao stood on the steps and looked at Tong Zhong, looking at the ministers, he could feel that although no one stood up to help Tong Zhong, everyone was obviously more inclined to Tong Zhong's statement.

After a long time, Zhu Youzhu slowly said: "The minister is loyal to the king, the king does not doubt the minister, this is the way for the monarch and the minister to get along, Ye Qi is I promoted him to the household department, whether Ye Qi is in the public heart or selfishness, I think he is out of public heart, I am the king, there is no doubt about employing people, and there is no need to suspect people. ”

"Nayin's strategy to open the middle, although it was proposed by Ye Qi, but it was approved by me, for the monarch, I don't blame it, Ye Qi can't be blamed for this matter."

Zhu Houzhao stood on the steps and listened to his father's words, he could probably hear a few layers of meaning, the first time was that he was a Ming Jun, he didn't need to be suspicious, he didn't doubt people, since he didn't know Ye Qi's heart, then he regarded him as a public heart, showing the emperor's mind. The second meaning is that I am open to words and humbly accept advice, Ye Qi does not blame him for doing this, so you don't have to be afraid, how to go to the book, how to admonish, how to admonish.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao felt that he had learned, this is the way of the emperor, you can't chase Ye Qi's sins, that will make many people afraid and afraid, afraid of being questioned out of selfishness, in the long run, this is not good.

The third meaning is that I am not the one who blames the courtiers for the sin, Nayin Kaizhong is approved by me, I can't blame Ye Qi, I admit my mistakes if I have them, and I will not use the courtiers as a scapegoat. To put it bluntly, he still appeases people and shows his attitude, but he is very clever, Zhu Houzhao believes that no one will dare to say his father's sin, but help his father to play wrong.

The fourth meaning is to elevate himself, Zhu Houzhao obviously feels that his father is establishing a great image for himself, what is Mingjun? That's it! What is Renjun, this is!

At this time, Zhu Youjiao, who was sitting on the dragon chair, spoke again: "Ye Qi will be buried according to the minister's ceremony, and the courtesy will remain the same, as for the Ye family, punish it according to the law!" ”
