It wasn't until the officials were satisfied that the court meeting gradually calmed down, and an official who wanted to make up the matter before stood up helplessly.

"Your Majesty, according to my Ming ancestral law, the vassal king needs to go to the fief when he becomes an adult, and he is not allowed to stay in the capital.

Zhu Youxiao sat on the dragon chair and squinted at the minister, according to the memory in the mind of the Emperor of the Apocalypse. This person's name is Gu Qisheng, who is a Jinshi in the 22nd year of Wanli, and is currently a member of the department. Of course, he has another identity, that is, a member of the Donglin Party. This made Zhu Youxiao feel a little surprised, for fear that there would be some conspiracy in it.

"Reconsideration by the Ministers".

Here Zhu Youxiao was still thinking about what the problem was, and some ministers in the court all agreed, even the members of the eunuch party who opposed the Donglin Party also agreed.

For the members of the eunuch party headed by Wei Zhongxian, why should Zhu Youzhen leave Beijing, it is also because Zhu Youxiao had decreed that he should succeed to the throne.

For the Donglin Party, Zhu Youzhen's departure from Beijing is the law of the ancestors, and it is difficult to violate the law of the ancestors. As for whether there is any other meaning, it is not something that Gu Qisheng can touch, anyway, he is also following the arrangement of the people above.

"King Xin is the son of the first emperor and the younger brother of the emperor, and his love is deep. I hope to spend the Spring Festival with King Xin. Therefore, regarding the matter of King Shin's entry into the domain, we will discuss it after that year. ”

Although Zhu Youxiao didn't want Zhu Youzhen to go to other places to become a vassal, he was afraid that someone would use the edict left by the Emperor of the Apocalypse when he died. It's just that all the ministers agreed to this proposal, and Zhu Youxiao, as the emperor, couldn't object, so he had to delay it for a while.

At the same time, I also told the ministers that I hope to let King Xin spend a festival in the capital, and if you mention it again after the festival, I will agree, and you will also give me face for the face I give you.

The ministers in the court were all old fritters, so they could naturally understand what Zhu Youxiao meant, so they didn't mention the matter anymore.

After all, the emperor is going to use family affection to talk about things, if he doesn't give face, this really annoys the emperor, what should I do? In particular, the members of the eunuch party next to them will take advantage of this, even though they are now standing with us.

"The minister has his own music".

When the incident was recalled, a minister once again came out and talked eloquently about Zhu Youxiao's rudeness.

"What is the matter with Zhang Aiqing".

"Weichen wants to participate in Fujian's political secretary, Xia Dayan, and the punishment is according to Zhu Siquan, the envoy department, and he commands the envoy Zhao Guohua to rebel."

As soon as these words came out, the court was silent, and even Zhu Youxiao was a little helpless. It is really unimaginable that an ordinary official would be mixed with the highest governor of a province.

What is Chief Secretary?

During the Ming Dynasty, three divisions were set up for the provincial-level administrative regions, and the political envoys were announced, and the criminal envoys were prosecuted according to the procuratorial divisions, and they all commanded the envoys.

During the Ming Dynasty, it was a first-level administrative region directly under the management of the central government, referred to as the "Political Envoy Division", which was equivalent to the level of a high-ranking official.

The Department of Procuratorial Envoys has the responsibility of prosecuting and prosecuting sentences, and has both judicial and supervisory functions. This is even more awesome, if according to the later generations, this is the director of the Provincial Public Security Department.

The capital commands the embassy division, referred to as the capital division. It is a military command organ established in the Ming Dynasty at the local level. He is in charge of the military and political affairs of one side, commands the guards under his jurisdiction, and belongs to the governor's office of the five armies and obeys the orders of the military department. This is equivalent to the commander of the military district.

"Zhang Aiqing, you have to know what you are talking about, this is not your back garden. If there is no evidence, I will punish you for the crime of deceiving the king, and for the crime of deceiving the people."

"Your Majesty, the minister has evidence."

The official who was called Zhang Aiqing by Zhu Youxiao took out a piece of music from his arms. The little eunuch on the side hurriedly stepped forward to take it and put it in Wei Zhongxian's hands, and then Wei Zhongxian handed it over to Zhu Youxiao.

After Zhu Youxiao took a closer look at the chapter, he was instantly shocked by its content, only to see that it was written.

"Feeling that Pangu opened the world, the three emperors ruled the world, and the five emperors were conclusive. Yao Shunyu Zen position and virtuous people, Xia Wei has no way, Shang Tang cut down, and created a six-hundred-year Yin Shang great cause ............".

The article of four or five thousand words opened Zhu Youxiao's eyes, and he couldn't stop sighing in his heart, if he had such hydrological strength at the beginning, why would he be as depressed as he was at the beginning.

After Zhu Youxiao finished reading it, he finally understood the rebellion mentioned in the recital.

It turned out that Xia Dayan, the political secretary of Fujian, and Zhu Siquan, the envoy of the prison commission, drank and had fun with Zhao Guohua, the commander of the envoy of the capital, during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"Zhang Aiqing, there seems to be no evidence in your recital to prove that Xia Dayan, the political secretary of Fujian, has the intention of rebellion." Zhu Youxiao's face was a little gloomy, and his tone was not so peaceful, with a hint of dissatisfaction.

"Your Majesty, Xia Dayan, Zhu Siquan, Zhao Guohua, and the three of them on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, when the family gathered, they should spend the festival with the family at home, all the joy of reunion, but now they gather together to drink and have fun, if there is no conspiracy, the minister does not believe it. The minister is for the Ming Dynasty, for His Majesty, not to mention that Emperor Taizu issued an order for us to listen to the wind at the beginning, and the minister is not guilty, just a routine duty."

Let's say it, I knelt directly on the ground, crying bitterly, and muttering that I want to be loyal to Daming.

"Emperor Taizu is making you wrinkle, but it's not so random and suspicious." Zhu Youxiao said through gritted teeth.

Ancient Chinese society attached great importance to the supervision of central and local officials, and there was no shortage of relevant institutions and systems in all dynasties. The Ming Dynasty established the most complete supervision system and organization in history, and thus formed a very unique group of speech officials. According to the Ming system, the total number of this group is generally maintained at about 200 people, which is the highest in all dynasties.

After Zhu Yuanzhang became the emperor, he specially decreed that the imperial history and the six departments of the Metropolitan Procuratorate would form a speech official in the matter, so that the speech officials could listen to the wind and start playing.

What does it mean to hear the wind and start playing? It means that as long as you hear some bad news, you can tell the emperor, and as for whether the evidence is evidence or not, you can wait until after the investigation.

Since Zhu Yuanzhang has given special privileges to speech officials, he will also put forward special requirements for the political quality of speech officials. The following are the most basic: one is "to forget the country and forget the home, loyal and forget the body"; Second, they must be upright and upright, and they must be straightforward and outspoken; Third, he has outstanding knowledge, not only is he familiar with all aspects of the affairs of the imperial court, but also can be involved in ancient and modern times. In addition, you must also have a certain career experience, experience and stability; There are even specific requirements for age, origin, and ability to write and argue.

In other words, the officials can not only speak well, but also are not afraid of death, which makes people a little speechless.

However, it is also true that the Yanguan has a great reputation in the political arena, and has made shocking moves on many major issues, especially the edicts to the emperor. For example, Emperor Jiajing indulged in Zhai Jiao Qing, ignored political affairs, and Yang Jue of the Imperial History was heartbroken, wrote a book of extreme advice, was sent to prison, tortured, and passed out several times, but still dealt with it calmly. When the other officials learned about it, they risked their lives to show their support, and they also paid the price in blood. Because the speech officials are very concerned about the emperor's virtue, those emperors who play state affairs, are mediocre, live a luxurious life, and neglect their government for a long time are often criticized and reprimanded by the speech officials, so that the emperor is also afraid of the speech officials.

For example, Emperor Wanli was playing and playing in the palace one day, and suddenly heard the call of the imperial history of the city, and he was desperate to stop singing. Why? He said, "I'm afraid of history. "Supervising and restraining important ministers of the imperial court was the main responsibility of the Ming Dynasty spokesman, and from the history of the Ming Dynasty, there is almost no cabinet chief assistant who has not been impeached and criticized by the speech official, and most of them have fallen from the political arena or left important positions in the public opinion offensive of the speech official.

The eunuchs who were in the political arena of the Ming Dynasty were also the main targets of the monitoring and crackdown of the officials. Those eunuchs who relied on the emperor or empress to gradually gain power and popularity were often constrained and impacted by public opinion from the officials. So much so that even Wei Zhongxian, who was known as nine thousand years old, did not dare to compete with him. was attacked by the officials, and he could only pinch his nose and consider himself unlucky.
