Chapter 63: Out to Sea

On the last day of March, Ying Tianfu was the most sensational topic. From the emperor's personal expedition, it suddenly turned to the matter of all 67 people in the Confucian Mansion being arrested and put in the prison.

Who is the Kong family? Even the illiterate old peasants, who did not know that they were the only thousand-year-old family in the Ming Dynasty, had heard of Confucius.

Although this family does not have much power in the officialdom, it is already a great thing that it can be passed down for thousands of years.

In the DPRK and China, the sensation caused by this incident is far greater than that of the people. Early in the morning, some ministers and prisoners wanted to bow down at Chengtianmen, and wanted to ask His Highness to release the Kong family.

However, because Zhu Zhanji was not in Yingtianfu, and because the Kong family was arrested and no one took the lead, it was not implemented.

At noon, the reason why Confucius was arrested was publicized by Jinyiwei. Hearing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince vomited blood again, and it was caused by the Kong family, the ministers who wanted to speak for the Kong family died down one by one.

Just kidding, these ministers can get involved in everything, but only royal affairs!

It's no wonder that the Kong family was not imprisoned in the Criminal Department or Dali Temple, but in the Inner Prison, because this directly provoked the royal family!

Jian Yi has been annoyed by people these days because of the Kong family's case, and he is tired of it. But last night, the people of the Confucian Mansion were arrested, and his heart became empty.

From the first day he learned to read and write, he visited the statue of Confucius, can he watch the descendants of Confucius being arrested?

No!

Xie Jin's visit last night strengthened his determination.

Looking at Zhu Zhanji's movements, he knew very well that Zhu Zhanji was killing people with a soft knife and boiling frogs in warm water.

From the Shandong grain case, the Kong family was implicated, and now all the grain shops in the north and south of the Confucian family have been sealed, and hundreds of thousands of stone of grain have been confiscated.

Taking advantage of Ma Dezhong's case, His Royal Highness directly uncovered the brocade clothes covered by Confucius, revealing their dirty bodies.

First of all, the Kong family is completely discredited from the reputation, and without reputation, the Kong family will have nothing.

The household department inventoried the fields in Shandong, which was again digging the roots of the Confucian family, who had taken it by force for hundreds of years and became the largest landlord in Shandong.

It's clean when no one investigates, but when you really check it, it definitely won't be so clean.

And Kong Lenan is also a fool, he can't see the crisis behind this, and he is still running around for the migration of the two branches, which is completely putting the cart before the horse.

No matter what, we must keep three points of vitality for them, and we can't let the young highness directly eradicate the Kong family.

The Confucian family has been eradicated, can Confucianism be okay?

The Confucian family is not clean, but because the Confucian family is not clean, His Royal Highness can directly dig up the foundation of Confucianism.

Only Jian Yi can help in this matter, because in today's Ming Dynasty, only his power is not restricted.

Since the sixteenth day of the first month, the Ming rules of deliberation have been officially implemented, and in the past two months, all the ministers have fully understood the meaning behind this set of rules.

Indeed, the implementation of this set of rules of procedure has greatly increased the power in the hands of everyone.

Originally, the affairs of each ministry were almost always approved by the court, but now, most of the affairs are distributed to the ministries, and others have no power to meddle.

But this kind of decentralization is sacrificing the credibility of the court, and no one else has anything to lose, including the emperor.

In particular, with the decentralization of finance, all ministries can receive more office funds on a monthly basis than before, and many affairs, unknown to others, have already been done.

When power is delegated to the ministries, it is impossible to get them to take it out again.

Now only Jian Yi, who is the speaker, is still qualified to interfere in the affairs of various ministries, but how much energy can he have alone?

The ministries basically don't take out some affairs for discussion, so he just interferes, how deep can he interfere?

Therefore, he admired Zhu Zhanji more and more for coming up with this plan, and a simple conspiracy made the united court ministers divide and even wary of each other.

However, the royal family, at this time, can easily control the ministries through financial allocation.

Jian Yi proposed several times that Daming Bank should also be placed under the management of the Ministry of Accounts, but Zhu Zhanji ignored him at all. Obviously, His Royal Highness the young grandson knew very well that this power must not be given to the household department.

It is precisely because of the implementation of this set of rules of procedure that Jian Yi understands that His Royal Highness Taisun is not simple. And Taisun's plan for the Kong family, he will also think more far-reaching.

A Confucian family doesn't matter, but Confucianism can't move!

"My lord, Tobe Xia Shangshu has an urgent matter to see......"

"Hurry up, please ......"

Before Jian Yi's words fell, Xia Yuanji had already entered the hall. "Brother Yizhi, I am uninvited, it is really a very urgent situation."

Although the household department and the government department are neighbors, they basically have little personal contact with each other. Uninvited like Xia Yuanji is even rarer.

Jian Yi couldn't help but stand up and asked, "What happened?" ”

"On March 24, the dragon in Guyuan, Gansu Province turned over, and now the road is blocked, and there are countless casualties."

Jian Yi frowned, a solid plain is far away in the northwest, which is not a big deal. But now that the army is about to march westward, it can't ignore the fact that it is holding the throat of the northwest.

If the plan for the western expedition is ruined because of this, don't say that the emperor can't spare them, even they can't forgive themselves.

"Wei Zhe, you immediately organize a rescue team to allocate money and food, and I will immediately go to His Royal Highness Taisun and ask him to get an idea."

Xia Yuanji's intention is this, he is the head of the household, at this time, since he knows about the Guyuan earthquake, he naturally has to organize rescue first.

But His Royal Highness Taisun can't help but inform him, and it's best to go over by Jianyi.

He opened his mouth and said: "The local bank in Guyuan has limited bank deposits, and I want to transfer a batch of silver money from the Shaanxi Buzheng Division's bank, and I hope His Royal Highness can let Chen Xuan cooperate." ”

Jian Yi nodded and said, "I will discuss this matter carefully with His Highness." ”

Today's banks are real banks, mainly depositing and lending money. It is also because the scale of each branch is limited by the deposit of silver money, and there is no general deposit and exchange function of the later World Bank.

Although there is silver in the account of the household department, most of it is concentrated in the capital, and most of the government departments are deposited in the thirteen major vaults of the Daming Bank except for a small amount of taxes.

Therefore, if the household department wants to withdraw the money, it must get the cooperation of the bank.

However, the Daming Bank was an independent institution, and the governor Chen Xuan was originally a local official who only listened to the orders of the royal family. This kind of restriction makes the household department have to accommodate the bank frequently, otherwise the efficiency will be much lower.

Jian Yi's car drove out of Chaoyang Gate, and the accompanying guards hung out the Shangshu flag and the marching flag.

There are examples in the Ming Dynasty, Shangshu travels, the people avoid, and the military flag is rushed, and the road must be cleared.

There were guards to open the way, the people gave way to the cement road, and Jian Yi and his party soon arrived at the hot spring annex.

When Zhu Zhanji learned of the Guyuan earthquake, he couldn't stay in the other courtyard anymore.

He knew very well that in this era, the imperial court simply did not have the ability to administer first aid. Even though the eight-hundred-mile urgent information was urgent, it had been five days since the imperial court got the news, and now Guyuan had already passed the best rescue period.

The common people don't expect the court to rescue them at all, they only hope that they can be appeased by the court in the future.

Tomorrow is the big court meeting, Zhu Zhanji pondered for a while, and said: "Jian Shangshu will wait for a while, go and say goodbye to the mother concubine, and then return to Beijing with you." ”

When Zhang heard about the earthquake in the northwest, he was more open-minded than Zhu Zhanji thought. "As a prisoner of the country, Zhanji should naturally focus on national affairs. Your father is unconscious now, and you can't help you in the near future, so go back to Beijing as soon as possible. ”

"The child will return to Beijing today, and after the court meeting tomorrow, he will come back to serve his father."

Zhu Zhanji knelt down and kowtowed to her, and was quickly helped up by Zhang. "Hurry up......"

Zhu Zhanji smiled slightly with her, and when he turned to Zhu Zhanyong and them, his face had already darkened. "Zhan Yong, Zhan Yun, the two of you are brothers, you should relieve your mother's worries and serve your father."

The two bowed down, and Zhu Zhanji said to Jiaxing again: "Jiaxing, you are also old now, so you can stay in another courtyard, don't let the concubine worry." ”

Twelve-year-old Jiaxing is actually only eleven years old, which is not too old, but he was born in the palace and naturally matured early.

She replied in a coquettish voice: "Brother Taisun, don't worry, the younger sister will take care of the younger sisters and not trouble the mother concubine." ”

Zhu Zhanji touched her head and said with a smile: "Jiaxing is really good, in the future, my brother will allow you to choose a family business by yourself, so that you will have no worries for the rest of your life." ”

Hearing Zhu Zhanji talk about his family affairs, Jiaxing became shy and hid behind Zhang's family. "Mother, my eldest brother is laughing at me."

Zhang knew the weight of Zhu Zhanji's promise, and couldn't help but say happily: "Zhanji can't just think about Jiaxing, Zhan Yong and they should also say goodbye now." Your father is not in good health now, and if he does a great job, he will delay their family affairs again. ”

Zhu Zhanyong and Zhu Zhanjun are both sixteen years old, and they have reached the age when they should say goodbye. But Zhu Gaochi is not in good health, if he really dies, their family affairs will also be delayed.

They are not like Zhu Zhanji, Zhu Zhanji, as a prisoner of the country, even if his father is killed, he will only keep filial piety for 49 days at most, but they have to keep filial piety for 27 months.

"Don't worry, concubine, tomorrow's court meeting, I will arrange to go down and choose a concubine for the five of them."

In addition to Zhu Zhanyong, Zhu Zhanjun and the two are sixteen years old, Zhu Zhanyin, Zhu Zhanyun, Zhu Zhanyun, and Zhu Zhanyun, all three of them are also fifteen years old.

Zhang nodded with satisfaction, and several of his younger brothers also laughed a little shyly.

Only then did Zhu Zhanji say to Sun Xian again: "You are here to fulfill your filial piety on my behalf, and you must not waste etiquette." Tomorrow, I will let Jin Kuo come to the other courtyard to clear the chambers, and you will also learn how to manage the chambers. ”

Sun Xian should be obedient.

Li Liang came in to rule, Yu Linwei was ready, and Zhu Zhanji said goodbye to the Zhang family again and left the courtyard.

In the carriage, Zhu Zhanji sat in the middle seat, and sat opposite him with a serious expression.

Jian Yi opened his mouth to intercede for the Kong family, which was expected by Zhu Zhanji. Even if the ministers of the DPRK and China did not believe in Confucianism, they would not sit idly by and watch the thousand-year-old system of the Chinese land disappear in Zhu Zhanji's hands.

Zhu Zhanji told him what Kong Lenan had done, and said: "He has committed a big taboo this time, and he should not be spared. Aiqing doesn't have to worry about the orphan society directly breaking the foundation of Confucianism, this Confucianism, loneliness will still be used. ”

Jian Yi said: "Your Highness, everyone in the world knows that this Confucian family is the representative of Confucianism, Your Highness is so step-by-step and aggressive, it is making people feel at ease!" ”

Zhu Zhanji nodded and said: "So Gu Cai has to change, this Confucius is Confucius, Confucianism is Confucianism, and the Confucian family does not have such a big face, which can represent Confucianism." ”

"The thousand-year-old Dao system, His Highness wants to change it overnight, I'm afraid it's not so easy. His Royal Highness was a little hasty, and in the opinion of the minister, this is like a chronic disease, and it should be delayed. ”

Zhu Zhanji said with a smile: "The priorities, Lone naturally knows." If Lone does not make such a gesture, how will the people know Lone's attitude? If the Confucian family is not greatly damaged by this, how can the world know that they are moral and sanctimonious on the surface, but in fact men thieves and prostitutes? ”

"Your Highness, be cautious. Why is this Confucian family like this, even if it is a little moral, but it is ...... But it ...... too."

Jian Yi didn't expect Zhu Zhanji to use such vicious comments to evaluate the Kong family, this is no longer disgust, it is complete hatred.

The Kong family has such an impression in His Royal Highness's heart, then their results are destined to be not good.

However, Jian Yi found that Zhu Zhanji was not a temporary intention at all, and he wanted to deal with the Kong family, which was completely premeditated.

He is also very clear about His Royal Highness's growth trajectory, although he didn't like Confucianism since he was a child, but he also received Confucian education, why not use the enemy's attitude to target the Confucian family!

Only the emperor, except for him, no one will instill such an education in His Royal Highness. But the emperor has not shown hatred for the Kong family in the past!

And Zhu Di didn't know that he had carried a black pot for Zhu Zhanji again, and he was full of ambition at this time, ready to conquer the world.

But he didn't expect that as soon as he went out to sea, he was defeated by the waves.

It's not that he hasn't been on a boat before, and he's never had seasickness.

But it was in the canal, in the river. Out of the mouth of the Songjiang River and into the sea, this is a completely different concept from the inside of the river.

Although the huge ship he was riding on was much more stable than those warships, the ship swayed all day long, and people seemed to float in the air, and their feet did not land.

Then he vomited the sky and the darkness, not only him, but also the chamberlains who went to sea with him, and some generals, all vomited in the dark.

He was old, and after two days of vomiting, he became sluggish, but this did not frighten him, but aroused his competitive spirit.

When the ship arrived in Ningbo, he was already a little used to it. He was originally going to delay in Ningbo for a few days, but this year's spring has become very short, the temperature has risen rapidly, and now the north wind has subsided.

He didn't want to delay the trip, and he was against seasickness, so he decided not to delay in Ningbo, and took advantage of the north wind to go directly to Luzon.

In Ningbo, he didn't even get off the ship, but just summoned a group of officials from Ningbo to board the ship, explained it, and then ordered to go south.

On the first day of the fourth month, when the Great Dynasty Meeting was held in Yingtianfu, his fleet sailed mightily to the South Seas.
