Chapter 110: Jin Yiwei's ability
Seeing that the imperial history was directly killed by the cane, I originally wanted to attach to the imperial history, strive to make the emperor make an edict against himself, and then learn from Emperor Jiajing to go back to the harem to cultivate immortals or learn from the Emperor of the Apocalypse to do carpenter work, all of them simply shut their mouths, and did not mention half a word, as if the person who was killed by the cane just now was not a colleague, but an insignificant person.
Chongzhen looked at the silent ministers below, and sneered again in his heart. What kind of stuff are these, once you raise the butcher knife, you will immediately become more honest than a quail, and one by one you will learn to be a man with your tail between them, and there will be no more dead advice. If you want to deceive the court staff like Emperor Xiaozong Zhu Youzhang's Hongzhi period or Emperor Wuzong's Zhengde period Zhu Houzhao, what kind of name can I fight for, I will be killed directly with the cane and replaced! There are thousands of poets and calligraphers in the Ming Dynasty, and there is still a shortage of people who want to be officials? What a fucking joke!
Emperor Chongzhen, who was cold in his heart, watched his ministers all kneel on the ground honestly, and then spoke: "All Aiqing are all even." ”
After the ministers got up, Chongzhen continued: "Let's talk about it, what kind of charter should this Shaanxi drought be." ”
Wen Tiren, the first assistant of the cabinet, said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that after a major drought, it is easy to have major floods. Additional conscription can be sent to repair canals and rivers for relief through work. Those who do not have labor at home can be provided with additional assistance. ”
Xue Fengxiang, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, also came out and said: "The minister seconded the proposal. In the land of mountains and Shaanxi, the people have been fierce since ancient times, and if they do not make the people have something to do, they are prone to trouble. If you use work for relief, you can take advantage of the situation to sort out the mountains, rivers, bridges, and roads in the mountainous and Shaanxi land, one is disaster relief, and the other is beneficial to the country. ”
Guo Yunhou, the secretary of the household department, came out and said: "The minister also seconded the proposal. Nowadays, although there is grain in the household department, and there is also grain in the local warehouse, if the people can be fed all day long with alms, the number of idle people will inevitably increase. The minister thought that the method of cashing in for work should be practiced. ”
Chongzhen thought about the practice of later generations and found that this method of cash-for-work was indeed feasible. Now is not the Celestial Empire in a few hundred years, saying disaster relief is disaster relief, and if you are not careful, it is really easy to make a big mess.
was about to agree, but Guo Yunhou continued: "In addition, after the catastrophe, it is easy to have plagues, and there are many records in the history books. The minister asked His Majesty to send people from the Tai Hospital to Shaanxi to guide the people in epidemic prevention. ”
After Chongzhen listened, he glanced at Guo Yunhou unexpectedly, damn it, who said that the officials at the end of the Ming Dynasty were all waste snacks, and they only knew how to fight for power and profit? As long as you kill them honestly, isn't this still very useful?
Because the courtiers finally began to do business, Chongzhen was a little relieved, so he said: "The method of work for relief is okay." The epidemic prevention law instructs the Tai Hospital to be responsible for this matter. Turning around, Wen Aiqing handed over a detailed fold and said it. ”
After discussing the disaster relief, Chongzhen continued: "In addition, this drought relief is inevitably caused by some people. ”
When the ministers heard this, they all scolded in their hearts, preventing a fart, the ghost knows that the emperor, your old man is going to release the eagle dog factory guard, with them, do you still need to prevent it? Who dares to stretch out your hand, and you can't even punish the nine clans?
Seeing that the others didn't speak for a while, Wen Tiren, the first assistant minister who had always been in front of Emperor Chongzhen, also pretended to be deaf and dumb, and didn't mention what Chongzhen said yesterday to let the factory guards strengthen supervision. ”
Chongzhen nodded and said, "Yes." ”
Then, Chongzhen changed the topic again: "This time Jinyi Weidi reported, there are many losses in various places. Just a few years ago, I repeatedly demanded that the warehouses must be fully closed, but there are still people who dare to resell them privately, and it is not clear where this batch of grain has gone. I have already ordered the Jinyi Guard to fetch people, and everyone Aiqing said, what should I do with these people? ”
Seeing that Wen Tiren still didn't speak, Xiang Shi Feng, who claimed to be an emperor, said again: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that since Your Majesty has issued a strict decree a year ago and requires Chang Ping to be full, this generation still dares to get up and down, and should be dealt with as a king, or according to the ancestral system of Emperor Taizu Gao, peel the skin and grass." It's just that since these people dare to put their hands on the regular liquidation, there must be something behind them, and Your Majesty should be strictly investigated. ”
Wen Tiren stubbornly went out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Lord Shi said is too much. Of course, this generation deserves to die, but this year is His Majesty's Kaiyuan Chongzhen, and it is not appropriate to kill too much. Therefore, the ministers thought that they should be punished for the first evil, and the rest could be fined silver to atone for their sins, so that they could return to their hometowns. ”
Chongzhen was quite surprised when he heard this, the person Wen Tiren saw last night really had such a ability? I wonder how many people in the court will come out to oppose it?
Wen Tiren also secretly complained in his heart. Looking at the scenery, under one person and above tens of thousands of people, he actually knows that he is suffering. Not to mention anything else, just some people secretly instructed, and above this court, don't think about instructing a few people. At that time, he will be useless, and today the Son of Heaven will let himself sit firmly in the position of the first assistant of the cabinet?
But he didn't think about it, Chongzhen had already decided to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, but he sneered: "Wen Aiqing doesn't need to say much. I feel that Shi Aiqing is right, the rectification of the world should have been rectified a long time ago. Over the years, Daming has been too gracious, but he has been lax in discipline, so that he can't distinguish between east and west, north and south, and he doesn't take my will seriously, what do I want such an official to do? Take my money and oppress my people? In the end, the officials forced the people to rebel, so that after my death, Yan Yan saw the ancestors and ancestors? ”
When Wen Tiren heard this, he saw that none of the many officials behind him were attached to him, so he knew that today's matter was a foregone conclusion. He smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is too old to be driven, it is difficult for His Majesty to drive, the minister, begging bones, and returning home." ”
Chongzhen smiled and said, "Are you too old?" Last night, when Wen Aiqing and the distinguished guests were at the book's banquet, they tossed in the concubine's room for half an hour, why did they become too old to drive at this time? ”
Wen Tiren heard this, but he was shocked, after all, this factory guard reproduced the majesty of Hongwu and Yongle, what did he do last night, the emperor actually knew everything?
was about to ask for guilt, but he heard Chongzhen say lightly: "Someone in the court impeached you Wen Aiqing, and I saw that you were loyal to the king, and most of them stayed in the middle of the court." And now you've changed your mind because of what the guest said last night? Well?! Well, I don't ask you where that person came from, and when you get to the prison, you will naturally say. ”
After speaking, he ignored Wen Tiren, looked at the courtiers and said, "How many people looked for you last night, I can assume that I don't know." You have occasional little evils, and I don't care. However, what I can't tolerate is to take my money and do things that pit me! ”
