After dealing with the matter of technological development, Zhu Cijiong unconsciously ran back to Kunning Palace to amuse him, not that he deliberately neglected his administration, but that the daily political affairs were handled by Xu Guangqi, the first assistant of the cabinet, and Zhu Youzhen, the prime minister of the cabinet, and he basically didn't have to worry too much.

To say that among the emperors of all dynasties, he can be regarded as the most diligent one, because he has insisted on the early dynasty since he succeeded to the throne, and if there is no special reason, the early dynasty will be on almost every day.

This sounds simple, but it is difficult to do, get up at four or five o'clock in the morning every day to deal with government affairs, that is not something that ordinary people can insist on, therefore, there are very few emperors in the past dynasties who can insist on the morning dynasty every day, and there are many who do not go to the dynasty early when there is a little thing.

For example, there is a sentence in Bai Juyi's "Song of Long Hatred": "The spring night is bitter and the day is short, and the king will not be early from now on." “

Of course, the early dynasty is not the only criterion for judging whether an emperor is diligent or not, many people prefer to talk about things with the review of the recital, if an emperor reviews the recital every day, the batch of waste sleep and forget to eat, the batch of the day is getting thinner, and even the batch of vomiting blood, then it is called diligence!

Speaking of this review and review, Zhu Cijiong is simply a lazy and frightening emperor, because he has not had the habit of reviewing and reviewing the folds since he succeeded to the throne, at the beginning it was because he was too young to review the folds, and later, it was completely because he didn't like to sit there and review the folds, so a cabinet prime minister was specially set up to review the folds on his behalf.

Isn't that the right thing to do? From the point of view of the rules and regulations inherited from all dynasties, it is not right for him to do this, but if you consider the actual effect, there is nothing wrong with him doing so.

In general, most of the things written in the folds are actually daily government affairs, from the yamen in the capital to the local prefectures and counties, and many things have to be folded for instructions.

For example, the household department is going to issue officials' salaries, the officials are going to appoint and dismiss an official, the state government is going to execute a group of prisoners, the state and county want to build a road, and so on.

When Zhu Cijiong first succeeded to the throne, there were no less than 400 copies of the recital every day, and now there are as many as seven or eight hundred copies a day.

In fact, as long as there are institutional constraints on daily affairs, the key to a country is also the development of economy, military, culture, technology, etc., if an emperor's main energy is to deal with daily affairs, then the country will stagnate, and even regress.

Maybe this is the reason why the feudal dynasties are gradually declining, of course, Zhu Cijiong doesn't have time to summarize this now, because his two sons are too busy with things.

No, it's not easy for a few days, the queen mother of the two palaces began to nag again, these two princes have grown up day by day, and the concubines in the harem are even more pregnant, shouldn't the emperor think about the education of his children?

This question naturally has to be considered, in later generations, ordinary people will regard their children's education as the top priority, not to mention that he is still an emperor now.

In fact, an emperor does not need to teach his children in person, and all dynasties have institutions dedicated to serving the children of the royal family, and in the Ming Dynasty, this institution was called Zhan Shifu.

The main function of this Zhan Mansion is to teach the prince and counsel the prince.

However, since the middle of the Ming Dynasty, most of the Zhan Mansion has become the rank of Hanlin officials, and the prince's attendants and attendants are generally concurrently served by court officials, and this function of the Zhan Mansion has seriously not been worthy of its name.

Like the current Zhan Shifu Zhan Shi is Huang Dao Zhou, Zhu Cijiong didn't want him to teach the prince, but because there was no suitable position to promote Huang Dao Zhou's rank at that time, so he hung him the title of Zhan Shi of Zhan Shifu and raised his grade to the third grade, in fact, he was still in charge of the affairs of the Guozijian.

At that time, the prince was still missing, and Zhu Cijiong naturally didn't have to think about these things, but now it's different, the prince's education is a national event, and it can't be sloppy at all.

Is this matter of Zhan Shifu simply handed over to Huang Daozhou to be in charge? Zhu Cijiong thought about it, but still felt that it was inappropriate.

To say that Huang Daozhou's knowledge is very profound, it is enough to be the prince's teacher, but his personality is too extreme, if the prince is taught to his stubborn donkey temperament, it is definitely not the blessing of the Ming Dynasty!

So what to do? Huang Daozhou's ability to do things is still very strong, and Han culture has the potential to become the mainstream culture in the world today under his promotion, Zhu Cijiong is still very satisfied with this, and now it is very inappropriate to give his Zhan Shifu Zhan Shi, you must know that the Guozi Priest Wine can only be from the fourth grade.

After thinking about it, Zhu Cijiong decided to simply give him a promotion, anyway, this Zhan Shifu can't let him be responsible, he doesn't want his sons to be as stubborn as donkeys in the future.

However, Zhu Cijiong checked the setting of the official position and found that there was no place to place this zodiac week!

It stands to reason that the most suitable place to promote him is the Ministry of Rites, but Qian Shisheng, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and Fan Jingwen, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, are both exemplary officials, honest and honest, diligent and good, and it is impossible to get rid of them.

As for the Ministry of Rites, not to mention, Xu Guangqi is in the court for a day, and this position cannot be replaced.

This problem is tangled, if you don't have a position, you can't move Huang Daozhou, and it's not appropriate to masturbate him, what should I do?

Zhu Cijiong pondered for a few days, and finally came up with a solution, that is, to set up a yamen for Huang Daozhou, a yamen equivalent to the six departments, so that he could be promoted to the second grade of Shangshu.

He made such a decision not to be hot-headed, indiscriminate, and no one stipulated that the imperial court could only have six ministries, the Ming Dynasty just followed the old system of the Sui and Tang dynasties, that is, the system of three provinces and six ministries, and it was actually okay to add or abolish it.

For example, Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, took advantage of the Hu Weiyong case to remove the prime ministers, reformed the officials of Zhongshu Province, and attributed the power of Zhongshu Province to the six departments.

The founding monarch can abolish the three provinces, and the lord of Zhongxing can naturally add the yamen, in fact, with the expansion and development of the Ming Dynasty, there are already many departments that are overwhelmed.

Like the Ministry of Households, not only to manage the hundreds of thousands of officials, but also to manage the finances of thousands of prefectures and counties, the Ming Dynasty now has two capitals and 35 provinces, as well as two Zhili Mansions, and countless merchants, even if the Ministry of Household Yamen doubles, it can't manage it.

Another example is Guozijian, who used to only need to manage the tribute students, but now he not only has to manage the tribute students, but also the enlightenment education in various places, the imperial examinations of the vassal states, and the promotion of Han culture.

Why is it said that the yamen of the country is small? Because Guozijian has a total of one sacrificial wine from the fourth grade, a priest with a positive sixth grade, and the other sesame officials below the seventh grade are less than ten in total!
