The Donglin Party said a while ago that it would cooperate with the imperial court in the future, rather than continue to show its independence through comments on figures in the court, but their purpose of wanting to be independent of the imperial power system under the slogan of "helping the world and saving the people" has not changed. That is to say, they are willing to cooperate in action, but they do not want to be attached ideologically, because limiting imperial power is the core idea of Gu Xiancheng, the founder of the Donglin Party.

In the private discussion between Gao Panlong and **Xing, the Donglin Party will cooperate with the emperor as the representative of the court in the future, and the supervision will be supplemented by the dark. Although they did not say it publicly, people with a discerning eye could clearly see ♀ that in the discussion of the selection system of officials, although they knew that almost all of the people appointed by the Apocalypse through direct intervention were Donglin Party members, but because this was a means for them to resist as much as possible, they seemed to be a little inactive and quite complaining, which was a typical "pick up the bowl and eat meat, put down the bowl and scold the mother." ”

For the purpose of solving the hidden dangers, Tianqi felt the need to explain what he said, because he knew that the current Ming Dynasty had evil intentions and everyone who had crossed the ocean, and a political group with its own independent ideas independent of the imperial court system was easy to be deceived and go mad.

Seeing Gao Panlong's embarrassed expression, Tianqi said directly: "I know that the people of Donglin Academy call themselves the Donglin Party, which is a political group with independent thoughts, cooperation is only a means and not your ultimate goal, your idea is to be ideologically non-attached, in order to seek your own correctness and independence, I don't know if I am right?" ”

Gao Panlong said: "No matter what, the ministers are unconditionally loyal to the emperor, and they are wholeheartedly devoted to the country and the people, and have no selfish thoughts. ”

Apocalypse said, "I don't doubt your loyalty at all, but many times many people do wrong things under the guise of loyalty. Because you are loyal, you think you are right, and because you are loyal, you do things recklessly. Just like the two Donglin Party members who posted the tabloids this time, aren't they loyal? It is because of their self-righteousness that they are taken advantage of by others. Besides, your generation is unconditionally faithful, so do you dare to guarantee that your next generation and the next generation will also be unconditionally faithful? ”

Seeing that Gao Panlong and Liu Zongzhou didn't make a sound, Tianqi sighed and said: "Think about it, a political group that is alienated from the imperial court will naturally be at peace when everyone has no differences, but if there is a dispute with each other one day that they will not give in, this group will either be suppressed and banned, or they will seek their own armed forces to protect ♀ themselves, and it is certain that they will part ways at a certain time, and it is not impossible for you to live and die with each other, haven't you discovered this hidden danger?" ”

Gao Panlong bowed his head and said, "The minister is panicked, please ask the emperor to show a clear way." ”

Tianqi nodded and said: "Since Lord Gao said that you are unconditionally loyal to me, then you need to eliminate this hidden danger in the bud, so as to show your loyalty∞ which means that you will issue a program document to show that you and the court are always single-minded, and you will share weal and woe and loyalty." Even if some parts of the imperial court are not done right, you should also put forward opinions and suggestions with a perfect and complementary attitude, instead of standing aside and saying cool things as in the past, which seems to be irrelevant, what you need to do now is to participate in and integrate in thought and action. ”

Seeing that Gao Panlong was thinking, Tianqi continued: "Of course, I know that you have concerns, and I am afraid that after you unconditionally integrate and participate in the future, the court will do something wrong, and you will not be able to open your mouth to accuse. In fact, there is no need to worry about this, since you are unconditionally loyal to me, then if this kind of thing happens, I will support you unconditionally, the Donglin Party is still the Donglin Party that cares about the country and the people, and will not let you have no shame to see Mr. Gu Xiancheng after death. ”

Liu Zongzhou asked at this time: "Your Majesty, if the minister asks a little disrespectful, if the emperor does something wrong but is stubborn, can you still support the ministers against yourself?" ”

Apocalypse smiled: "Since you are stubborn, why do you still support you?" I'm not a fool. ”

Gao Panlong and Liu Zong's faces turned green when they heard it on Monday, and the unconditional support you started to talk about is it to tease us?

Seeing their faces, Tianqi was secretly a little amused in his heart, and he explained: "No one is a saint who is happy when he hears it, and I don't like anyone to accuse me all the time, the best way is not to make mistakes, so you won't accuse me?" ”

Liu Zongzhou frowned and said: "The minister can't find the Son of Heaven who can't make mistakes in the history books, what method did the emperor use to keep himself from making mistakes?" Chancellor wants to know! ”

Tianqi smiled and said, "It's just doing less or not doing things, have you ever seen people who don't do things do things wrong?" ”

Liu Zongzhou smiled bitterly: "Of course, you won't make a mistake if you don't do things, but will the emperor ignore the government from now on?" ”

Apocalypse said: "Human abilities and energy are limited, and they cannot manage everything. Those who have to intervene in everything and think they are proficient in everything are actually the most obstructive people∞ and now divide the affairs of the DPRK and China into government affairs, military affairs, and government affairs, and let the Metropolitan Procuratorate be responsible for them, respectively, in order to make everyone not make mistakes or make fewer mistakes, I have set up a holy academy to study management theory, and set up a doctoral academy to summarize professional experience, so that I can only do to maintain order. As long as the system is functioning properly, I can be a spectator, and the chances of making mistakes are negligible. ”

Gao Panlong asked: "What does the emperor mean that you throw out all the specific affairs for others to do, and the minister's Metropolitan Procuratorate only supervises the Government Affairs Yuan, the ministries in Beijing, and the governors of various places?" ”

Tianqi said: "The Metropolitan Procuratorate supervises from the level of affairs, and the Donglin Party supervises from the theoretical level, anyway, in my eyes, you are the same thing." Of course, in order not to be suspicious of each other, you should not meddle in military affairs, I have a special supervision of military affairs, the Imperial History, the internal guard, and the East Factory. ”

Gao Panlong listened and thought about it and then nodded in approval, then Liu Zongzhou suddenly said: "The emperor began to say that loyal people are often self-righteous, and the results are often incorrect, which makes the minister think of one thing, that is, how does the emperor judge the correctness of people or things?" ”

Tianqi looked at Liu Zongzhou and said, "Lord Liu has something to say, right?" What do you think of? ”

Liu Zongzhou said: "The emperor first asked the ministers to go back and think about how to improve the court push system, the ministers were thinking that the previous court push system could convince the officials to recognize, but there was no guarantee that the elected ones were competent, if this person lacked ability, he would spend his main energy on engaging in crooked ways in order to thin his position." If there is any way to judge a person properly and accurately, will it not be long before this method is integrated into the court system? Therefore, when I heard the emperor start to talk about the correct judgment of people and things, I had this question. ”

Tianqi sighed and said: "It is difficult to see a person clearly, there are many wise and foolish, treacherous and loyal, it is impossible to judge people directly, only by what they do to judge people." Even from the point of view of judging people, many things are mixed. For example, Yue Fei of the Southern Song Dynasty has said over the years that he is a loyal minister unparalleled in the world, and that Song Gaozong and Qin Hui, who killed Yue Fei, are a pair of traitorous ministers. However, as far as the emperor issued twelve gold medals in a row to recruit him back, Yue Fei was not necessarily very loyal. ”

Liu Zongzhou frowned and said: "When the courtier was a child, he always listened to people's teachings, saying that the loyal ministers of the past generations and the Chinese courtiers should learn from Zhuge Liang, who bowed to the exhausted, and the military generals should learn from Yue Shaobao, who was loyal to the country, how could the emperor think that Yue Fei's loyalty was not enough?" ”

Tianqi said: "The courtiers must be unconditionally loyal to the king, and the military ministers must first be loyal and obedient before they can talk about anything else." If I want to return a military minister who leads the army, I will give him a gold medal, and if he has practical difficulties and has to report the reason why he cannot come back and ask me for permission, if I do not allow it, I will issue a second gold medal and force the order. Under the sovereign's forcible order, anyone should come back immediately as long as they live, if there is a person like Yue Fei in the Ming Dynasty who needs twelve gold medals to recruit back, I will also cut him down immediately, and I will not be merciful, and the greater the ability of those who defy the authority of the monarch, the greater the harm. ”
