Chapter 847: Black Face and White Face
The matter was just proposed, and some people immediately stood up to oppose it, but in this regard, everyone already knew it in their hearts, but they would not be surprised, and Zhu Yijun faced these things that did not make him comfortable, but he also behaved very smoothly, no longer refuted without regard to it as before, and even, at this time, Zhu Yijun was very calm in his heart, after all, for him, even if the people below objected, it was already a thing that could be done. So he only needs to sit quietly on the dragon chair, look down, and move his mouth from time to time.
In fact, for Zhu Yijun, this matter is not what he wants to do the most, and no matter what this "Examination Law" is, for today's Zhu Yijun, who is not yet powerful Zhu Yijun, the miasma in the court has nothing to do with him, in the same way, no matter how clear the court is, it will not make him feel very comfortable, the reason why he agrees to this "Examination Law" is because it is really a thing that can make the court more efficient and make the people's lives more comfortable. There is another reason.
The above point is just Zhu Yijun's responsibility as an emperor, after all, although he is very lively by nature, but in the same way, he is also a very orderly person, all thanks to his imperial grandfather Emperor Jiajing, if there is no suspicion of Emperor Jiajing in his later years, Zhu Zaiyuan will not hide Zhu Yijun so deeply, and the Li Caifeng back then will not invisibly instill some strict education in Zhu Yijun.
These have little to do with whether he is an emperor with real power, after all, as an emperor, he naturally has to shoulder the mission of the emperor, and he does not want to be a faint monarch, so it is naturally not wrong to have this idea of letting a more superior way manage the court.
But there is another point, it is Zhu Yijun's personal grudge, that is, because he is an emperor with no power in his hands, even if others don't say it in front of him, but in his eyes, it seems that the ministers in the court are laughing at him, of course, this may just be Zhu Yijun's hallucination due to personal reasons, but in fact, this is exactly the case, there are really few ministers in the court who can afford Zhu Yijun, the emperor, last time Zhu Yijun's "ten years of revenge" This is already very telling.
In this regard, Zhu Yijun also understands that the "Examination Method" that Zhang Juzheng came up with, in addition to being really beneficial to the country and the people, is more important is that he understands very well that as long as the court really does that, many ministers will feel unhappy, and whenever Zhu Yijun thinks about it, he will feel very happy when he can see these people who are obviously deflated, but they still have to pretend that nothing has happened.
This matter, except for Zhu Yijun himself, I am afraid that Zhang Fan is the only one in the entire court who understands, and this is not what Zhu Yijun clearly told him, but because Zhang Fan has more contact with Zhu Yijun, and some things guessed from his words and deeds on weekdays, in Zhang Fan's opinion, this may be because Zhu Yijun is still a child and is very sensitive to many things, or this palace makes Zhu Yijun, who is only more than ten years old, mature early and distorted early.
However, Zhang Fan doesn't plan to ask about this, as long as it can be done, from a certain aspect, Zhu Yijun can be regarded as a breath of relief, and there will be no aftermath, as long as he enlightens a little later.
In short, put these aside for a moment and continue to see what is happening in the court now.
The first one to stand up and say anti-dialogue was Yu Menggui in Hu Keyou's matter, many people actually had speculations that he would stand up, and one of the two possibilities was indeed correct, although the other ministers didn't know, but Zhang Fan was clear in his heart, and Zhang Fan also believed that Feng Bao also knew why.
After all, the responsibility of the six departments is to supervise the six departments, and for the six departments, because they are speech officials, although their mouths are not flattering, but they do not have much real power in their hands, so the supervision of them is not strict, but the court does not care about them, let them speak, it does not mean that no one cares, in fact, almost everyone in the court who has six departments is very close to them, even between them.
And Zhang Fan, as the second-ranked spy leader of the Ming Dynasty, this job is naturally something he has to worry about, for these people in the six departments, whether it is Jinyiwei or Dongchang, they will all be staring at, and for their affairs, it is recorded without leakage, not necessarily to catch their handles, of course, it is best to have a handle.
And if you catch the handle, you don't necessarily have to use it immediately, then it doesn't mean anything, it's all said, good steel should be used on the blade, and this thing is the same, and when you need to use them, then talk about it, wouldn't it be better.
Let's take the Yu Menggui in front of him, others may still be speculating about what he stood up for, but Zhang Fan's heart is clear, not that Zhang Fan pays attention to him, in fact, it is all thanks to his extraordinary memory, as long as he has seen it once, he will not forget it, and he will remember it clearly.
This Yu Menggui, in fact, stood up to speak against it, for a few people, although he is a person in the six subjects, it stands to reason that those who can enter the six subjects will definitely not have a bad character, but things are not so simple, after all, entering the six subjects is equivalent to the road to promotion in the future, not that the six subjects have no future, it is really because doing things in the six subjects will offend many people, even if he is promoted to a higher position in the future, he will get rid of the identity of this official who can only speak, but he will not be able to do it for a long time.
Yu Menggui just thought of this, so he also began to plan for himself, of course, he is not a very big traitor, at most he just collects some silver taels, and then helps people with a few good words, but he is very good at this point, rabbits don't eat the grass by the nest, he doesn't play anything with these officials in the capital, but he is looking for officials from other places.
As far as Zhang Fan knows, this Yu Menggui has this kind of relationship with many officials from other places, such as Wang Zongmu, the governor of Fengyang, Zhang Genghua, the governor of Guangdong, Zhang Shouyue, etc., these are not very powerful in the eyes of Beijing officials, but they are people who can be powerful and prosperous in the local area, and Yu Menggui has some dealings with them.
But now, even if Zhang Fan knows, he doesn't plan to wade into this troubled water, it's not that he doesn't care about this matter, but he has been explained by Feng Bao, don't ask about this matter, Zhang Fan doesn't know what Feng Bao's plans are, but he also understands that Feng Bao will not mess up this matter, so he is ready to watch from the wall.
Thinking of this, Zhang Fan couldn't help but turn his head to look at Feng Bao who was standing next to the dragon chair, at this time, Zhang Fan happened to see Feng Bao glancing at a little eunuch standing far away, and then, the little eunuch turned around and left, Zhang Fan saw this in his eyes, and naturally understood what Feng Bao asked him to do, after all, Feng Bao did not have Zhang Fan's extraordinary memory, and it was impossible to remember everything he had seen clearly, at this time, He must have asked the little eunuch just now to find the file about Yu Menggui, and the handle was to be used in such a place.
However, what Feng Bao planned to do, Zhang Fan didn't want to ask, he was now waiting to see who else would stand up and speak.
Sure enough, these people are destined not to disappoint anyone today, and one Yu Menggui just stood back, and then someone stood up.
"Your Majesty, Weichen also feels that this matter is very inappropriate," it was Wu Wenjia who stood up and spoke.
It's okay for Yu Menggui to stand up and speak just now, but now that Wu Wenjia stands up, it really makes people feel a little interesting, although as the saying goes, there are only three deaths, and now it's just two people, but these two people are really interesting.
If these two people have anything in common, there is only one point, they are both officials of the six sections, and this point has to make people think, why it is not someone else who stands up and speaks first this time, but these officials of the six branches who have no real power.
The reason is actually very simple, because these people are speech officials, and when they speak, as long as they are reasonable, they naturally cannot be held accountable, and sometimes even if they are not reasonable, they still have to say, back then, when Zhu Yuanzhang came up with these six departments, the original intention was to supervise the six departments, so that the court could be orderly, but I never thought that these people were not afraid of heaven and earth, even the tyrannical father and son like Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di, there was no way to speak to these officials of the six subjects, although they were so angry that they wanted to kill, But they also understand that these people cannot be killed.
And now, these people have stood up and spoken again, and they dare to speak regardless of whether Zhu Yijun is in power or not, of course, if it is a fake public and private matter, it will naturally be another matter.
"Aiqing has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it," Zhu Yijun saw that another one stood up, so naturally he would not stop it, and said.
"Your Majesty, the laws of the imperial court are set by the ancestors and ancestors," Wu Wenjia said, "Now, Weichen also understands that Lord Zhang has good intentions, but if the imperial court applies this "Examination Law", where will the ancestral regulations be placed?"
This one is different from the previous one, and he doesn't speak so tactfully, he is straightforward at all, and Wu Wenjia's opening is to use such a big hat as "Ancestral Law" to buckle it down, which is really difficult to refute.
The opposition of these two styles now appears in this hall at the same time, and it seems that today's early dynasty, this can still be done.
