Chapter Seventy-Seven: Relatives
The matter of the head of the Salt and Iron Division is naturally impossible to hide, and Qi You became the head of the Salt and Iron Division, in charge of the Salt and Iron Division, and was added to the rank of household servant.
As soon as the news came out, it shook the entire officialdom, and there was an instant uproar, many people didn't expect that it would be such a result, and there were naturally a lot of people who were not convinced, but it was not okay to directly question this matter, the officials appointed by the emperor, it was not your turn to say yes or no, if so, then wouldn't the court be chaotic, how could the emperor govern the country?
Is there no way around it? Of course not, you can turn over history, you can find mistakes, and you can buckle your hat.
The basic operation process has not changed for thousands of years, so the number of excerpts to impeach Qi You has increased dramatically in the past few days, some have impeached him for being arrogant, and some people have turned over his black history, some people say that he gave bribes, such as giving gifts to Zhang Heling, the Marquis of Shouning, and some people say that he was able to get this official position because he took Zhang Heling's way.
Scolding Qi You for being a civil official is a shame for civil officials, the court is up and down, public opinion is indignant, in a word, Qi You, you are not suitable to be this official.
There are several purposes for doing this, one is to vent, such a position was obtained by Qi You, how could those staring people not vent? One is to remedy it, to see if Qi You can be pulled down, and the other is to stink Qi You, if he can't bear the pressure and resign himself, it will be the best.
Although disgusting, but effective, isn't there a history that there are fewer people who have been like this in the Ming Dynasty?
In addition to engaging in Qi You, several cabinet scholars did not run away, and the impeachment question book was sent in directly, what kind of acquaintance is unknown, nepotism, anyway, in Zhu Houzhao's view, this seems to refer to the cabinet scholars, but in fact, it refers to Zhu Youjiao. However, Zhu Hou looked at the appearance of his father and god, and didn't seem to pay attention to it at all.
"Father, what should I do with these inscriptions?" Zhu Houzhao looked at the question book that was picked out and piled aside, and couldn't help but ask.
"Take it and burn it!" Zhu Youzhu glanced at it, and said with some distress: "The stove in the palace that burns the question book does not stop all day long, but it still can't be burned, besides, it's all money!" I feel distressed, it's all my money. Saying that, Zhu Youzhu was actually a little resentful, and Zhu Houzhao was dumbfounded.
Obviously, Dad didn't take these impeachment questions to heart at all, but felt sorry for the paper, pen and ink money of these impeachment books.
Glancing at his son, Zhu Youzhu said with a smile: "You have to understand that there is a game behind everything, and when the game is completed, these are meaningless!" Saying that, Zhu Youzhu patted the stack of question books on the table, and said with a smile: "Unless Qi You is not clean under his buttocks." ”
Zhu Houzhao shook his head, this Qi You started as an imperial envoy since he entered the officialdom, and his family background is also solid, and he has no black history.
"It's all a small matter, and it can't affect the overall situation, but you're supporting your relatives, do you really want to do this?" Zhu Youzhu looked at Zhu Houzhao with a serious face, and his expression was unprecedentedly serious.
As a famous emperor in the history of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youzhu naturally has his own political wisdom, although he is not like Emperor Jiajing who has been playing with power all his life, but he also has his own mind and vision, and he is dignified.
Outer Confucianism and Inner Law, Inner Sage and Outer King, it is easy to say, but it is difficult to do, and it is even more difficult to do well.
Although Zhu Houzhao didn't say anything on the surface, Zhu Youzhu still saw his son's plan, and he planned to mention his son.
Relatives, this is a word that has never been bypassed in history, this word represents too many things, the son wants to support his relatives, in Zhu Youzhang's opinion, this thing is absolutely not good, Daming already has a good tradition, that is, to support eunuchs, give a knife at the right time.
Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there has never been a dictatorship or a big foreign relative, not before, and not now.
Zhu Houzhao didn't expect his father to be waiting for him here, he couldn't help but be stunned, and looked up at his father, originally Zhu Houzhao thought that his father doted on his mother so much, and he was so spoiled by Shouninghou's family, this matter should not be a big deal, but now Zhu Houzhao knows that he was wrong, and the truth is not like that at all.
If the Shou Ninghou family is raised as waste, they make some money and do something to bully men and women, which is not a big deal.
However, if you put your hand into the financial power, then you will have the capital to interfere in politics, and it is absolutely not allowed for relatives to interfere in politics.
Zhu Hou looked at his father, and understood in his heart that this was the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, who was indifferent to everything he had done, and now he felt that it was time to beat it, so he stood up. Zhu Houzhao bowed and said: "Father, the son has the intention of supporting his relatives, but it is not the kind of relatives he used to have, but the sons want to use his relatives to support some businessmen. ”
Zhu Houzhao didn't hide it, but said directly: "What Erchen wants is to use the hands of his relatives to hold some businessmen in his hands, and above the court, it is better for his relatives not to interfere." ”
Zhu Youzhu stretched out his hand and patted his son's shoulder, and then sighed: "The dictatorship of the relatives, that is to make the lord Shaoguo suspicious, and the harem is in politics, this will not appear in the Ming Dynasty, I am not worried that you can't control it, but I am worried about the Shouning Hou family, don't get it to the end, you are using a knife against them." After saying this, Zhu Youzhu walked away with his hands behind his back.
Looking at his father's back, Zhu Houzhao knew that he had made a mistake again, what his father was worried about was not that he couldn't handle his relatives, nor that he was worried about his relatives' dictatorship, but that he was worried that he would use a knife against his uncle's family.
Of course, the things that are released have to be taken back, and the businessman is controlled by the hands of his relatives, so naturally it can't be like this forever, it must be taken back, it's just a matter of time, but how to take it? The easiest way, of course, is to kill the relatives and then get the things back.
Zhu Houzhao sighed, he knew that this matter could not be explained, this was the limitation of the times, and Zhu Houzhao did not intend to explain it.
Although the affairs of the officials in charge of the Salt and Iron Division were disturbed, this matter did not stop, the selection of the yamen site, the dispatch of officials, these were all carried out in accordance with the order. At this point, Zhu Houzhao has very little to do, and he can also allocate some energy to other places.
The autumn wind is gradually rising, the weather is getting cooler, Zhu Houzhao has not been out of the Forbidden City much recently, most of them are studying in the palace, or they are practicing martial arts in Xiyuan.
Basically, Zhu Houzhao maintained the frequency of going to Xiyuan once every three days, practicing martial arts with his personal guards, eating together, and showing his pro-people side. At the same time, Zhu Houzhao will also ask who is in difficulty, and he can say it and help himself. In Zhu Houzhao's opinion, the border generals should raise their relatives like this, right?
