Chapter 192
"Has anything happened in the court hall recently?"
"Back to Your Majesty, nothing happened, during the period of the old man's rule, everything was advocated for stability, and there were no major moves, so the government is still as stable as before."
For Jiajing, the moody boss, Xia Yan was terrified when he received it!
If you want to say that Xia Yandu is no longer an official, why are you still willing to help Jiajing do things?
There is an idiom called "no desire is rigidity", but Xia Yan is not, Xia Yan has desire!
Although Xia Yan is already old, and he has reached the limit of being an official in this life, he still has two things to ask for Jiajing, that is, his own posthumous name and the blessings of his descendants.
We all know that in the Ming Dynasty, especially in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the literati of the Ming Dynasty all over the world had a common pursuit, that is, their own reputation.
They all started to use the emperor as a boss to make a reputation, and you say they are thirsty for fame?
And how much did the ancient literati attach importance to their own names before and after their deaths?
As long as you can let him have a reputation that will last for centuries, you let them die, let them commit suicide, they will dare, and they can fight for it for a lifetime for a clear name.
And not only ordinary literati, but also for great literati, like Xin Qiji, who we know, wrote this in his poems,
"But the king of the world, won the name before and after his death. Poor white happens. ”
In fact, it stands to reason that the honorary titles awarded by the emperor in ancient times are for life, such as the Taishi of the literati, the Taiwei of the martial arts, etc., even if you retire, these titles will always follow you for a lifetime, and they will be engraved on the tombstone after you die.
And for the sake of face, even if the minister makes an ordinary mistake, the emperor will not remove these things, after all, is it the emperor, the existence of Chrysostom Yuyan, how can he regret it?
But Xia Yan met the emperor Jiajing, the moody Jiajing, and the shameless Jiajing.
Yes, the shamelessness of the old Zhu family, I guess it should be genetic.
As soon as this guy Jiajing got angry, not only did he immediately remove all of Xia Yan's official positions, but he even had to take back his previous rewards, and Xia Yan begged bitterly and said to Jiajing:
"Emperor, the old minister knows that he is wrong, and the old minister will not be an official in the future, but don't take back this reward you gave me, can you leave it for me as a family glory for future generations!"
I'm sorry, Xia Yan's words are all on this, Jiajing still didn't agree, and still took everything back, but after a short time, his anger subsided, and he returned it, tsk, this operation is really troublesome!
This is actually only the first point, Xia Yan still has the second point to ask for Jiajing, that is, about the glory and wealth of his descendants.
Xia Yan is a good official and a good first assistant, but he is not a good parent.
He is very spoiled by his children and grandchildren, and when he was ousted by Yan Song in history, Yan Song took advantage of the breakthrough made by Xia Yan's descendants in his hometown.
Hey, no one is perfect, you said that Xia Yan has so many weaknesses and so many desires, can he not be afraid of Jiajing?
Especially now that he has no position on him, and his old rival Yan Song has just stepped down, will he not seize such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
"Well, it's very good, you can do it well, I actually see these things, I'll go back and rest first, you go and gather the courtiers, just say that tomorrow morning, I have something important to say."
"Yes, I'll do it."
Xia Yan is not a fool, of course he understands the hidden meaning of Jiajing's words, it seems that he is going to work hard, look at the emperor's meaning, he is expected to restore the first assistant!
Back at the palace, Jiajing immediately asked all the imperial doctors to be called, and then gave them a death order!
"You go and find all the tonics in the palace inventory for me, and carefully list a list for me to nourish my body, from now on, you will be responsible for boiling the medicine for me, if it doesn't work, none of you will end well!"
"Yes, yes, Lao Chen will go to urge the Tai Hospital, and call all the Tai Doctors in the Tai Hospital to discuss together."
Touching the cold sweat on his forehead, Taiyi Ling's heart began to secretly complain.
For folk doctors, it must be a good thing to have a patient come to the door, after all, this person wants to eat, and if there is no patient, the doctor will starve to death.
But for the imperial doctors of the palace, it is not a good thing to have patients, because their salaries are fixed, and their patients are all relatives of the emperor.
If you cure the disease, this is your duty and duty, and it is what you should do, but if you are not cured, then I'm sorry, I won't listen to any reason you have, you are a doctor who deserves to die.
Therefore, this task of helping Jiajing regulate his body is really hard for these doctors, conditioning the body, whether it is useful or not depends on Jiajing's mood, when he is in a good mood, he says yes, when he is in a bad mood, he says no, hey, this is 。。。。。。
...............
"Li Yi, why don't you go back now, I don't have any use here for the time being, thank you for sending me back this time."
Looking at Li Yi, Jiajing seemed to remember his previous painful life, so he now wished that Li Yi could leave early, and then make himself clean.
"Yo, you're starting to dislike me, okay, okay, then I'll go, I'll go and see if Lao Zhu is done in Datang."
Ignoring Jiajing's purple face, Li Yi left here with his crutches on his crutches.
.........
"What do you mean it's almost over?"
When Li Yi came to Datang, when Li Yi asked Li Shimin about the situation and progress, Li Shimin gave a vague answer, almost.
"Even those families have actually been wiped out by us, but many of their remnants have begun to wander around the Tang Dynasty, so now I am planning to see if we can set up a yamen to deal with these people."
“????”
Hearing Li Shimin's words, Li Yi looked confused, could it be that Li Shimin secretly stole from Lao Zhu, otherwise why would he suddenly get a brocade guard out?
That's right, specializing in spying on rebels in the shadows, isn't this the job of the Ming Jinyi Guard?
"This was taught to you by Lao Zhu?"
"Why do you think this is Jinyiwei?"
Li Yi asked questions, while Li Shimin asked with a painful face.
"Why do you think that every time I say it, you think I'm running a brocade guard? This is not what Zhu Yuanzhang taught me, I came up with it myself, and Zhu Yuanzhang's brocade guard is to supervise the court, mine is not, I will not let them supervise the court. ”
"But you must know that the tentacles of the power of this yamen will inevitably extend to the court."
Li Shimin was silent, yes, as long as this yamen is established, then in order to fight for power, his tentacles will inevitably extend to the center of power, the court of the Tang Dynasty, this situation cannot be avoided no matter what.
"Hey, look, you can only grasp it by the person who controls it in the future."
Sighing, Li Shimin didn't have a good solution.
