Chapter 472: Zhao Kuangyin's Invention
Although Chai Rong inherited Guo Wei's country, but he is not the second ancestor who sits back and enjoys his success, he fought with Guo Wei at a very early age, and made great contributions, not to mention, and took charge of the most elite Ya Nei army, which can be called Guo Wei's right-hand man.
Because of this, even if Guo Wei's parents survived, they would not be able to shake Chai Rong's position as the prince.
His situation can be compared with Li Shimin, and Chai Rong is ambitious, so he will definitely not bow his head easily.
The civil officials played collective resignation, which has touched the emperor's scales.
If you offend the true dragon emperor, can you still have a good end?
These prime ministers are really embarrassed, they are afraid that Chai Rong will be angry and decree to slaughter everyone, which means that the Son of Heaven and Shilin will completely turn their faces, and there is no way to get it back.
What they hate most is the gang of people who instigate resignation and blackmail, don't you weigh your own weight? Before we act, we should be informed and let us have an idea, where are you going to put the division of hundreds of officials in this way?
The officials of the government hall were angry, and the civil officials also had ideas.
Not to mention anything else, that is, outside the Xuande Gate, Li Gu ordered the embroidered messenger to beat people, and the rest of the people were watching, it is not an exaggeration to count you as the same party!
Several ministers have become lackeys of the Son of Heaven, and they are not worthy of commanding hundreds of officials at all, if we listen to you, we will be stupid hats! They want to use their own strength to wrestle with the Son of Heaven!
Everyone is gone, half of the court has collapsed, all kinds of government affairs cannot be implemented, no one has implemented the will, the world is in chaos, when the time comes, see if your Emperor Majesty admits defeat?
If you want to change the rules of a thousand years, it is not so easy, since ancient times, it is the king and the scholar who share the world, and if you want to take away our privileges, we will abolish your country! Let's see who can't bear it first?
They have already calculated, this time they must force Chai Rong to issue an edict against himself, abolish the embroidered clothes messenger, and stop clearing the acres of land...... Only when these few decrees against the scholars are stopped, will we return to the court, otherwise...... Hehe, just relying on one dragon can't support the day of the Great Zhou!
Although the civil officials have thrown off the political hall and there is no one in the middle to command, they still have all kinds of connections with each other and communicate with each other...... It's like fighting a war, someone rushes to the front, attracting firepower, someone is supporting in the back, and there are people threading the needle and pulling allies together.
All in all, the big guys are in their places, each performing their duties, and it is clear that they are going to have a dragon slaying show!
As the prime minister, Wang Pu has the heaviest burden on his shoulders and the most difficult situation, he is entrusted by Guo Wei, and he really can't bear to make trouble to the point of being out of control!
Thump!
Wang Pu knelt down on his knees, "Your Majesty, the old minister has the sincerity of his heart, and he wants to cry blood!" ”
Chai Rong said with a dark face: "Speak!" ”
"Your Majesty, the so-called soldiers can be killed, not humiliated. Deposing so many people at one time, it is inevitable that some people will be chilled and want to ask to go...... These people cannot understand the painstaking efforts of the Son of Heaven, which is hateful, but everything is too much, and it is easy to decide. Blindly applying pressure is not necessarily a good solution. Wang Pu paid attention to Chai Rong's expression, and found that the emperor had not changed, he seemed to be encouraged, and continued: "Now there are a large number of vacancies in the political affairs hall, the Privy Council, the Imperial History Tower, as well as various ministries and courts, and there are also people who resign one after another, especially in Hebei and other places, the situation is even more serious, and many prefectures, counties, and counties have no chief officials. Just now, Lord Zhao Puzhao has sent an urgent report, hoping that the imperial court can appoint some officials to go down, otherwise the Qingzhang fields in Hebei will not be able to push down. But now in the imperial court, where can you find someone? Even those officials who are in office are all frightened and perfunctory, and they are afraid that no one will be at ease anymore......"
Before Wang Pu could continue, Chai Rong suddenly flew up and kicked the dragon book case, and the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone on it, as well as a large number of notes, all fell to the ground.
When the other prime ministers saw it, they were so frightened that they knelt down and pleaded guilty together.
Chai Rong sneered twice, "I finally understand, those who resigned are just pioneers, and the real ones are still to come." Even if they are still in their position, they are not willing to do things sincerely, and they are all perfunctory...... Do you think so too? Everyone in the world wants to see my jokes? ”
Wang Pu was so frightened that he trembled, cold sweat flowed, he trembled, took off the black gauze hat, and put it beside him.
"Your Majesty, the old minister is favored by the emperor, and he just wants to be loyal to His Majesty, and he can learn from it every day! If Your Majesty thinks that what the old minister said is inappropriate, please ask Your Majesty to issue a decree and behead the old minister! ”
After Wang Pu finished speaking, old tears flowed and he fell to the ground.
Although Chai Rong was angry, he was not dizzy, Wang Pu was still an honest man, and he did remind himself that he was well-intentioned.
After groaning for a long time, Chai Rong walked to Wang Pu's side, picked up the black gauze hat, and put it back on Wang Pu's head.
"Xianggong Wang, the first emperor trusts you, and I also trust you." Chai Rong said word by word: "In the current situation, it is precisely when the monarch and the ministers should work together to get through, what do you think?" ”
Wang Pu kowtowed again and again, "Your Majesty, the old minister lives in the duty room of the political affairs hall, and the people below are gone, and the old minister personally writes the order and delivers it in person, even if he fights for this old life, it will not make the government affairs impossible to implement!"
The prime minister expressed his position, Wei Renpu, Xue Juzheng, and Li Gu patted their chests one after another, and they all said that they would stand with His Majesty and tide over the difficulties together.
Their statement, Chai Rong was at most slightly comforted.
Chai Rong also knows that don't look at how nice it sounds now, if he can't stabilize the overall situation and shows fatigue everywhere, these ministers may echo with the scholars in the opposition and make waves together.
At the end of the day, they're not really people you can trust!
Since the Han and Tang dynasties, Shilin civil officials have gradually grown into a group with a complete personality, they have common interests, common ideas, no matter in the court or in the opposition, they will take care of each other and form a group.
This is completely different from eunuchs, relatives, and even martial artists. They don't chase the throne, but they don't exactly look at the emperor's face either.
The so-called king and scholar are in the world, which is a cooperative viewpoint, not a master-slave dependence!
As a son of heaven, you can't decide who to believe or who not to believe based on personal affection, but to look at the interests of the concept, who is completely on the side of the emperor, and who is the most trustworthy.
At this point, several ministers are all ranked behind Ye Hua.
So not surprisingly, Ye Hua was called to the Golden Palace.
"I just went to the Great Zhou Academy, after a test, I found that the Great Zhou Academy, full of talents, extraordinary, especially the arithmetic skills, is even more breathtaking, I thought, to use the students of the Great Zhou Academy, to implement the Qingzhang acres. It's just that I didn't expect that there was another shortage of officials in the imperial court, and these students might have to shoulder a heavier burden. ”
Of course, Ye Hua understood what Chai Rong meant, and asked the students to be responsible for clearing the fields, there was no problem with this, they had a good foundation in arithmetic, and they were completely at the top of the world, as long as they trained well for a period of time, they would definitely be competent.
Ye Hua runs a school in order to cultivate useful talents, such a good opportunity to practice, how can you miss it!
It's just that listening to Chai Rong's meaning, it seems that he wants to let the students become officials and fill the vacant positions, which Ye Hua can't agree to.
"Your Majesty, the students are young and have nothing to do. If he is suddenly promoted to a high position, he is afraid that the ministers will help the seedlings grow, which will not be good! ”
Chai Rong groaned: "What Ye Qing said is reasonable, but what about now? There are so many vacant positions, if they don't fill them, they can't go to the army to arrest people, right? Could it be that you let me bow to the disloyal and unrighteous literati? ”
The emperor's anger was high, and he said anything, and the faces of those old ministers were flushed, as if they had been slapped more than a dozen times, and they knew that they were suffering!
Compared to bowing to the scholars and using martial arts, it seems that it is not so bad to go back to the old path and activate the students...... Chai Rong is already the lesser of three evils.
Faced with such a situation, who could have a better way?
Ye Hua said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I think there are still some people who can use it and use it." ”
"Who?"
"It is the old officials in the yamen, they are familiar with government affairs and have rich experience, as long as Your Majesty promotes them, it is enough to ensure the normal operation of the yamen, and there is no need to worry about the lack of officials!"
"No!"
Before Chai Rong could speak, Wang Pu hurriedly stood up, if he didn't stop it, the rules of the entire court would be completely gone!
"Champion Hou, this proposal is absolutely not feasible!"
"Why?"
Wang Pu took a deep breath, "Champion Hou, the old officials you are talking about do exist, but these people are not on the right path, and among them, the good and the bad are mixed, and there are people with bad conduct. If they are promoted, do you still need the imperial examination? How should these people be punished for corrupting the law and corrupting the rules of the imperial court? Since the first emperor was in Japan, he paid special attention to the rule of officials, if this group of old officials were allowed to be officials, I was worried that the rule of the Great Zhou Dynasty would collapse, just in front of me! ”
Wang Pu said, turned to Chai Rong, and said bitterly: "Your Majesty, although the champion Hou has many wonderful ideas, this proposal is absolutely impossible!" Your Majesty, please be clear! ”
Chai Rong snorted, "If I don't use these people, who else can I use?" Does the prince have an idea? ”
Wang Pu's neck turned red, if he had an idea, would it be Ye Hua's turn to come up with an idea!
"Your Majesty, the prince's worries are justified, but the minister thinks that if it is suitable, it will be used, and if it is not suitable, it will be abandoned, and there is no difficulty!"
Wang Pu was made to cry, "Champion Hou, the famous weapons of the court officials are not casual, in that case, the majesty of the court will be lost, and the rules will all be corrupted!" ”
"Hahaha, Wang Xianggong, I don't think so." Ye Hua said with a smile: "The official position can be separated, and the official is only used as the basis for determining the rank, the salary, the chapter uniform, and the order of the transfer, and the real thing to do is to send, which can be judged, known, right, straight, test, pipe hook, lifted, raised, signed, supervised, etc., to show the difference." Ye Hua smiled at Chai Rong, "Your Majesty, for example, the judges of the Third Division are short of people, and they can be seconded from other yamen." If someone is suitable, His Majesty can give him the right to sentence the three divisions, and if he does a good job, he will continue to use it, and if he does not do well, he will be allowed to return to his original position at any time, and if something goes wrong, he will be held accountable according to the law. ”
