Shen Li's gaze was also spicy, and the suggestions he made were even more to the point, whether it was Li Mi or Ye Xianggao, they all had a sense of sudden enlightenment.

Especially the matter recommended by the Manchu Dynasty, Li Mi also had a deeper understanding of Zhu Yijun.

This Manchu Dynasty recommendation has a legend in the history of the Ming Dynasty, but compared with Shen Liye Xianggao, it is really not worth mentioning, but the Manchu Dynasty recommendation has a lot of wild history and legendary stories among the people.

Li Mi is not familiar with history, so he doesn't know this, but purely from this matter, the Manchu Dynasty is upright and full of a sense of justice, although he is only a magistrate, but it is really admirable.

Of course, Li Mi can also understand Zhu Yijun's approach, and know better why Zhu Yijun indiscriminately arrested the Manchu Dynasty first, instead of tax supervisor Liang Yong.

When Shen Li proposed to check the household department, he mentioned some figures with Li Mi, and just by looking at these figures, he knew why Zhu Yijun was so partial to Liang Yong.

In the year of Jiajing and Longqing, the old treasury of the household department accumulated more than 10 million taels of silver, and in the 18th year of Wanli, he went west to Ningxia and borrowed 1.6 million taels, and when Korea conquered the Japanese slaves in the east, he borrowed more than 5.6 million taels, which was the rebellion of Yang Yinglong in Banzhou, and also borrowed 330,000 taels of silver.

The border army made trouble because of the military salary, and borrowed 500,000 taels as a border salary to appease the army's anger, and then spent another 210,000 taels, and the price of the horse was 300,000 taels of silver, and after only a year, they borrowed 1 million taels because the border salary was insufficient.

These are all the silver borrowed by Emperor Zhu Yijun from the household department, that is to say, Zhu Yijun squandered the family funds left by the first emperors of the Jiajing and Longqing dynasties, and borrowed more than 954,000 taels of silver before and after, in addition, the Ministry of Industry borrowed 350,000 taels of silver with the marriage of the eldest son of the emperor and the canonization of the princes, etc., and the entire old treasury of the household department was only 270,000 taels of silver.

From more than 10 million taels, there are only 270,000 taels left in just twenty or thirty years, and it is conceivable how much Emperor Wanli spent.

The money was not necessarily borrowed from the household by Emperor Wanli himself, nor was it necessarily squandered by him alone.

For example, Zhu Yijun handled Zhu Changluo's marriage, because Zhu Changluo was low-key and because Zhu Yijun was not very concerned, he only spent tens of thousands of taels of silver.

When Zhu Changxun got married, he spent more than 300,000 taels of silver, Zhu Yijun just said to the people from the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry, my son is going to get married, you go to the Ministry of Household to spend money, and the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry will come to the Ministry of Household to argue.

The money was not necessarily borrowed by Zhu Yijun, but it must have been agreed by him.

In any case, it can be seen from this that Zhu Yijun is very short of money, why he wants to reuse those miners and tax supervisors, as long as he can get him money, he will reuse it.

If he punishes Liang Yong, it will chill people's hearts, who would dare to make money for him?

Some people may want to say, isn't the money of the household department the emperor's money?

This still has to be distinguished, the money in the treasury is used to maintain the operation of the country, that is, the emperor himself, also needs to go through the household department, can be borrowed, if the ministers oppose it, or the household department is still holding on to it, the emperor is also helpless, of course, if the emperor is an unreasonable tyrant, then it is another matter.

And the internal money is the royal money, the private property of the emperor and the royal family, and that is the money that the emperor can use at will.

Judging from the three people mentioned by Shen Li, Li Sancai is about personnel appointments and dismissals, which really shook Zhu Yijun's authority, Gu Xian was expelled from the court by Zhu Yijun, and he also challenged Zhu Yijun's authority because of personnel, and the Manchu Dynasty recommended Zhu Yijun to reuse the money-making eunuch.

Without exception, they are challenging and shaking Zhu Yijun's authority, and without exception, they have received the support of the courtiers, especially the Manchu Dynasty, after being imprisoned, in addition to the honest man Zhu Geng, hundreds of officials continued to go up and plead for him, wanting to rescue him from prison, which made Zhu Yijun even more angry.

Zhu Yijun already had serious health problems, and the courtiers challenged his authority one after another at this time, as if they were taking advantage of his illness and asking for his life.

And Shen Li's request to check the household department, etc., to a certain extent, is also exposing Zhu Yijun's reverse scales, because once the inventory is checked, Zhu Yijun's financial situation will be known, and Zhu Yijun will be even more embarrassed when the old matter is brought up again.

But think about it on the other hand, checking the financial situation of the household department and other departments will uncover the rotten skin, and expose all the rotten sores in the court to the sun, and the emperor can't pull him to cut off his head if he doesn't repay the money he borrows, but the corruption of officials must be vigorously rectified!

And the new Zuodu Yushi is like a mad dog that has torn off the chain, he has not bitten anyone yet, revealing the true face of this large number of corrupt officials and corrupt officials, just raiding the house can collect a large windfall, even if the hole owed by the emperor cannot be filled, in the end it can still alleviate the financial crisis.

As for Shen Li's request for Ye Xianggao to ask for leniency for these three people, one is to win the support of the officials for Ye Xianggao, and the other is to ease the deadlocked relationship between the emperor and the officials.

Shen Li's vision and ability, there is no doubt about it, this New Year's greeting, Li Mi and Ye Xianggao can be said to have gained a lot.

When it came to the Shangyuan Festival, Zhu Yijun was able to get up, although he was not very neat in speaking, and the speed was very slow, but in the end it was a lot better, so he took this opportunity to invite hundreds of civil and military officials to celebrate the festival together.

Because of Zhu Changxun's relationship, Zhu Yijun's relationship with civil officials can be said to have dropped to the freezing point, and the reason why he didn't go to court was because he was too lazy to quarrel with these civil officials.

Now that Zhu Yijun has invited officials to a banquet and taken the lead in putting on a kind posture, how dare the officials not know how to raise them?

This banquet also washed away the haze and brought a long-lost and rare celebration, and Zhu Yijun was also a dragon.

After the Shangyuan Dynasty, the officials returned to the government one after another, but everyone was sleepy, and they were still immersed in the atmosphere of the New Year's Festival.

However, Li Mi has already taken action, and on the surface, this left capital Yushi has done nothing, and he has not let go of a fart since he took office.

In fact, he had already asked Chen Ju to distribute all the fans of the inner factory, and even the people from the East Factory and Jinyiwei were all following Li Mi's list and searching for evidence everywhere.

On the first day of returning from the prison this year, the Metropolitan Procuratorate launched a major rectification, and arrested 37 officials of all sizes in one day!

Li Mi also couldn't allow them to collude with each other or move around with each other, and the East Factory Jinyiwei and the Inner Factory threw out conclusive evidence, and there was no chance to defend themselves at all!

This hand can be said to be a blockbuster if it does not sound, and the thunder vibration is a shock, but the action has just begun, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate has almost filled the prison for several days in a row, and one-third of the officials in the entire court have been implicated!

Zhu Yijun didn't have a good impression of these officials, if it weren't for his poor health and inability to fully control government affairs, he would have wanted to clean it up a long time ago, so he also fully supported Li Mi.

What's more, Li Mi investigated these officials, and all the income from the seizure of the family was filled into the treasury, which greatly alleviated the financial crisis, which is what Zhu Yijun is most happy to see!

The investigation of corruption is also in full swing, Li Mi, the "sullen fart left capital imperial history", as soon as he made a move, it was bloody and bloody, everyone in the court was in danger, and secretly called Li Mi "mad dog imperial history", that is to see who bites whom!

And Ye Xianggao's political reform is also being carried out in an orderly manner, Ye Xianggao is a talented person, and Zhu Geng, the first assistant, is the shopkeeper, and the cabinet atmosphere has also changed greatly.

Li Mi also visited Li Tingji, which facilitated Li Tingji's entry into the cabinet, Li Tingji handed over more than 100 letters of resignation, and was reluctant to enter the cabinet.

Li Tingji is a rare Qing official and virtuous minister in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, but Li Mi did not know about it from history books, but through the spies in the inner factory, he got all kinds of resumes and deeds of Li Tingji's career, which are all genuine!

Li Mi became the imperial history of the left capital, vigorously eradicated the accumulated shortcomings, scraped off the rotten sores and gangrene of the Ming court, and Ye Xianggao Li Tingji came back to make up for it, and the atmosphere of the court was also completely new.

In particular, Ye Xianggao's request for the release of the Manchu Dynasty and the reinstatement of Gu Xiancheng and Li Sancai won the hearts of the people and was praised by everyone.

Of course, Li Mi also took into account the problems of the Donglin Party.

Many historical researchers believe that the Donglin Party is the real reason for the demise of the Ming Dynasty, but Li Mi does not think so.

There is no doubt about the role of the Donglin Party in the early stage, and they have put forward many policies that benefit the country and the people.

Because they are all idle people, they can look at the current situation of the Ming Dynasty from a relatively objective perspective, and some of the reform directions proposed are also more in line with the needs of the trend.

It is undeniable that in the middle and late periods, the political struggle set off by the Donglin Party was very cruel and extremely disadvantageous.

But the Donglin Party is like a kitchen knife, some people use it to cut vegetables, some people use it to kill people, it can only be said that it is the user's problem, and the black pot cannot be thrown on the body of the kitchen knife.

The Donglin Party is a sharp double-edged sword, depending on how you use it.

Rather than letting these Donglin Party members grow stronger among the people without restraint, it is better to control them in their own hands and guide them in the direction they want.

Gu Xiancheng is a big-hearted person, he didn't resign at first, even if the court reinstated, he also politely refused, until Ye Xianggao personally came to the door, he was not willing to go out.

The reason why Li Sancai played was originally for Gu Xiancheng and others, but now that Gu Xiancheng has risen, a large number of civil officials led by him have stopped.

At this time, Yuan Keli asked to fill the vacancy again, Ye Xianggao and Li Tingji also supported, Zhu Changluo also boldly asked for instructions, and Zhu Yijun finally nodded and agreed.

Most of the promotions and reassignments of officials in the middle and late Wanli Dynasty were delayed, and the ministers did not fill the vacancies.

The official vacancies cannot be filled, and the newly promoted talents cannot get the opportunity to display their ambitions, and many people are in a vegetarian position, doing nothing, just getting by.

The official Xianxiang once wrote to fill the official vacancy, but the Wanli Emperor did not admit it, and now Yuan Keli has written again, with the support of Ye Xianggao, Li Tingji and Li Mi, and the Wanli Emperor finally nodded.

Emperor Wanli is actually helpless, because Li Mi, the mad dog imperial history, has almost arrested one-third of the officials, and if he doesn't make up the officials, where will anyone do anything!

is so vigorous, vigorous and resolute, the atmosphere of the court has taken on a new look, and Zhu Yijun's condition has been improving, as if everything is starting to get on the right track, and there is the atmosphere of Wanli Zhongxing.

However, as the replenishment progressed, the scene of the battle still appeared.

The imperial court wants to fill the officials, which means that there are a large number of official vacancies, and both Zhu Changluo and Zhu Changxun hope to place their cronies in these departments.

The entry of the people under his command into the official seats of the imperial court means that their strength has increased again, and how can they not fight for it?
