Without consulting any minister, Zhu Gaoxu ordered the Hanlin Yuan to write two holy decrees, one of which was sent to the Criminal Department, the Daming Central Bank, and the cabinet to read; The other is for pedestrians Liu Ming.

The first is to allow the chief or sub-governor of the central bank to replace him in the cabinet, and the cabinet will be expanded to ten members; In the Criminal Department, the "Industrial and Commercial Law Promotion Division" was added, and the chief officer was promoted by the four products, and there were several official positions such as editing and revision, and senator.

The Department of Promotion is responsible for amending industrial and commercial laws, but each law is passed by a decision of the court. The functions and powers also include the review of wealth-related cases such as industrial and commercial affairs, property disputes, and loans and loans in various regions. Restrained by Xue Yan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and two waiters.

The second is to commend Liu Ming for his meritorious service in Japan, and he was transferred to the Criminal Department, promoted to the promotion of the Fourth Industrial and Commercial Law Promotion Division, and presided over the legislation.

Last time, Zhu Gaoxu added the "Daming Central Bank" and appointed Song Li as the governor, but it was also decided on the spot, and no one was consulted. But this time, things seem to be a little different.

Liu Ming's manuscript advocating "advancing with the times" has passed for some time; It didn't take long, and it was easy to provoke the sensitive nerves of the ministers of the DPRK and China. Xia Yuanji, Jian Yi, Lu Zhen, Xie Jin and other civil officials showed resistance to this matter on the same day.

As for the turmoil of the old case of the "abolished prince" two days ago, it was suddenly thrown out of people's minds.

The next day, when the imperial gate listened to the government, Jian Yi played: "Pedestrian Liu Ming, Wu De Nian has been born in the top three Jinshi of the ugly department, and he has only been more than two years old, or he can't take on the position of the fourth grade, and he thinks twice." ”

Zhu Gaoxu was noncommittal.

Xie Jin of the Hanlin Academy immediately stood up and said directly: "Holy Lord, Liu Ming has neither qualifications nor extraordinary talents. It's just a person who figured out his intentions and flattered him, wrote a script, and then he rose to prominence and took the road of drilling camps. As soon as the imperial court opened a shortcut to the end of Nanshan, all the officials at the top and bottom followed suit, is it a good thing? I also hope that the Holy God will take back his fate. ”

Suddenly, many people cast appreciative glances at Xie Jin, eager to give a thumbs up, the situation is very rare.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "The holy decree has been passed on to all officials, and if it is withdrawn, it will damage the majesty of the imperial court. ”

His words were an understatement, but there was already fire in his heart. After a little patience, Zhu Gaoxu thought again: Xie Jin just dared to say it, even if he didn't say it, it seemed that some officials also meant this.

Anyway, no matter whether it is righteousness or interpretation, there is no way to resist the decree, and what the holy decree says must still be carried out. Zhu Gaoxu didn't say much, so he left it at that, and then asked the ministers to perform their duties, got up and left Fengtianmen.

In the middle and late stages of some dynasties, the emperor's personnel authority over officials was no longer complete; It is possible to kill and remove officials, but it is not possible to promote officials by holy decree alone; The central official office of the imperial court can even send the emperor's decree back.

However, the situation in the early Ming Dynasty was different, and Zhu Gaoxu continued the rules of Taizu and Taizong. The emperor has the power to make arbitrary decisions, and whoever he wants to be an official is just a matter of one sentence.

Zhu Gaoxu did not have the energy of Taizu and held all the power in his own hands, but he was very clear in his heart: he could not easily let go of the three powers, personnel, military power, and financial power.

So he didn't bother to pay attention to Xie Jin and others, and through this incident, he could remind the officials: The emperor has absolute personnel rights.

…… Shangshu Jianyi of the Ministry of Officials did not go to the cabinet today, and sent the left servant of the Ministry of Officials. He stayed in the yamen of the ministry, and when Liu Ming came to receive the appointed letter, official uniform, seal, settling-in allowance and other prescribed things, Jian Yi instructed his subordinates, found a reason to delay and prevaricate, and asked Liu Ming to come again tomorrow.

The efficiency of the various yamen was not high, and the officials did not say that they would not handle it for Liu Ming, and it was normal to delay for three or two days.

But it is clear that the matter cannot be delayed forever. Because the Zhongshu Province in the Hongwu period has been abolished, the six Shangshu theoretically only have the right to execute everything. Jian Yi has no power to refuse to carry out the decisions of the center, and resisting the will is the stupidest way.

This morning, Jian Yi first stood up and admonished the Holy Lord, and the liao must have high hopes for him, how could he easily surrender to the "new party" that has not dried up? What's more, if you let go in a hurry at this time, it will definitely be very troublesome to deal with the new party of Liu Ming and others in the future.

Of course, the conventional method is actually to threaten the emperor with resignation, and if a large number of officials resign, the effect will be very good.

However, Jian Yi is still weighing, will the current emperor eat this set?

Since his accession to the throne, he has been very gentle and obedient to the advice of his ministers, but he will never be deceived by appearances...... Jinshang and his father Zhu Di are essentially the same kind of emperors, fighting for power through war, and the martial brothers who fought side by side with a large number of votes firmly control the military power in the world; Such an emperor, even if he beheads thousands of officials at once, will not lose the throne. Taizu and Taizong have done such things.

The blood of Huang Zicheng, Tie Xuan, Fang Xiaoru and other entire clans has not yet dried up completely, how can the terrorist policy of the Ming court be easily forgotten?

Jian Yi sat in the study and meditated, and at one moment he wanted to go to Xia Yuanji to discuss.

At the entrance of the lobby of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Households, there are brocade guards on duty; Even if they meet privately after going down to duty, they will definitely not escape the eyes and ears of Jinyiwei, and Jianyi is the key "protection" object of Jinyiwei.

But there is no need to be afraid. Since the beginning of the Wude years, the emperor has never prevented the ministers from discussing matters in private, and the activities are still relatively casual. Jian Yi dispelled the idea of looking for Xia Yuanji, but he felt that it didn't have much effect, but gave people the topic of forming a party.

After Jian Yi thought about it, early the next morning, he wrote a recital and asked someone to send it to the imperial city and said that he was sick. Of course, Jianyi's subordinates will continue to shirk Liu Ming's affairs, according to yesterday's hints from Jianyi, they still have insight in this matter.

…… In the morning, Zhu Gaoxu got Jian Yi's sick recital. Almost instantly, he understood what was going on.

I just saw Jian Yi yesterday, this person is alive and kicking without any sick face, how can he fall ill so coincidentally? Moreover, such a scene quickly appeared in Zhu Gaoxu's mind: Jian Yi will then resign, and then a large group of officials will submit their resignations to return to their hometowns.

Approval of resignation is not a no-no. A large group of famous literati returned to their hometowns, and there were geometric multiples of classmates, friends, and children, and the court would not collapse, but the people of the world would soon think that the current emperor was unpopular. The most terrifying thing is that there will be countless more people who think that Zhu Gaoxu's throne is illegal and grab it.

But Zhu Gaoxu can't back down at this time, once he retreats, next time those people will do it again, can he, the emperor, still be able to speak with his golden mouth? He suddenly felt that it might be a mistake for him to directly issue a holy decree to promote Liu Ming.

Because since he ascended the throne, there has hardly been an incident of being coerced, Zhu Gaoxu was furious for a while, threw the notebook to the ground, and stepped on it twice with his foot.

Wang Gui, the eunuch on duty in the Dongnuan Pavilion, and several palace maids were suddenly frightened by Zhu Gaoxu's expression and bent down to bury their heads, as if they wanted to hide.

It is normal for political opinions to differ, but Zhu Gaoxu is angry that his holy decree can't even promote a fourth-grade official?! Could it be that Lao Tzu is usually too good to them, so he wants to inch in?

After the anger was vented, almost only a moment later, Zhu Gaoxu suddenly calmed down a lot. He said in his heart: Liu Ming's appointment will definitely be implemented, but it is difficult to say whether Liu Ming can do things smoothly in the future.

Zhu Gaoxu picked up the notebook, and then slapped it twice on the edge of the table.

At this time, Wang Guicai bowed down and said, "The emperor is angry." ”

Zhu Gaoxu stood up, pacing back and forth in the not-so-spacious partition, his hands behind his back.

Under the mood of anger, the thoughts are completely different. He calmed down a little, so he changed his mind: Jian Yi and the others should not want to go against the emperor, and the officials of this dynasty want to erode the imperial power, and they really think too much; At most, they are trying to prevent the so-called "new party" from seizing power.

And for the current matter, Zhu Gaoxu quickly thought of a way: Yang Ji has been arrested, and Yang Shiqi is the confidant of the abolished prince, maybe he can use this matter to scare those ministers who have gone through several dynasties?
