Chapter 645: The Transformation Is Too Fast

Wang Xijue's turn was a stroke of genius, which immediately stunned the ministers, and at the same time, Zhu Changluo, who was sitting on the throne, was also stunned.

Today's events are really a bit unexpected for him!

However, an accident is an accident, Zhu Changluo's psychological quality is outstanding, and he reacted in just a moment and analyzed the situation in front of him.

It is obvious that Zhen Zhenji and others are uniting to force Wang Xijue to express his position.

As for the mining tax, Wang Xijue can't actually have any other opinions, otherwise his reputation will inevitably plummet, which is simply unacceptable for a scholar who values reputation more than life.

On the other hand, once Wang Xijue makes this statement, then the cooperative relationship between him and himself will inevitably fall apart, not because Zhu Changluo is unreasonable and inconsiderate.

But the situation is like this, even if he is an emperor, he has to follow some rules.

The majesty of the emperor's family will only be more valuable than the reputation of the scholars, and now that Wang Xijue has united with him, there should be no different voices with him in the handling of court affairs.

And when Shen and Zhu played just now, Zhu Changluo had clearly rejected the invitation of the two, but now Wang Xijue, who was an ally, stood on the side of the courtiers, even though Zhu Changluo knew that he had to do it as a last resort, but he couldn't help but be angry, at least the posture that should be done on the surface was to be done, otherwise where was the majesty of the royal family?

Taking a step back and thinking about it, today Wang Xijue can stand on the opposite side of him for various reasons, so in the future, he may not have the same choice on such important government affairs, in this case, what is the point of the alliance between them?

This is the real plan of Zhen Zhenji and others, and he is punishing his heart!

Once the trust is shaken, it will be difficult to repair it, and what they have to do is to shake the fragile trust that has been established with great difficulty between Zhu Changluo and Wang Xijue.

And obviously, just a little bit, it's going to be successful!

It's just that they have made a lot of calculations, but after all, they have ignored one point, ginger is still old and spicy.

This plan can be said to have forced Wang Xijue into a corner, no matter how he chooses, his power will definitely be greatly reduced, and it seems that there is no solution.

But they forgot that Wang Xijue is not an ordinary person after all, and it will not be easy to be able to be the first assistant under one person in the officialdom.

This seemingly ingenious conspiracy turned out to be self-defeating, which made Wang Xijue make up his mind.

Speaking of which, in fact, those rumors outside are true, in the Qianqing Palace that day, Wang Xijue bitterly stated the pros and cons, and indeed persuaded Zhu Changluo.

Zhang Juzheng's reform method is too sharp, if it is fully implemented, it will definitely make a mess of the imperial court, and now that he has just ascended the throne, and he does not have the cadres to make arbitrary decisions, suppressing the prestige of the ministers, and rashly using Zhang Juzheng's reform method, I am afraid that there will be chaos.

So in the end, Zhu Changluo accepted Wang Xijue's advice and decided to start with the rule of officials.

And the first step in purging the rule of officials is undoubtedly to hold the power of election of the officials in their hands, which is the root cause of this turmoil in the hall today.

The reason why Zhu Changluo and Wang Xijue joined forces to block the news was just to cover up people's eyes.

Attracting the attention of all officials and ministers to the first edict of the new emperor will naturally ignore other things.

Of course, Zhu Changluo's edict is indeed his hard work.

Today's official Sun Piyang, a sleek and sophisticated person, is very popular in the court, rarely offends people, his previous ministers were defeated in the political struggle in the end, but he was the only one who firmly held the position of the secretary of the ministry, and sat for seven or eight years.

In the final analysis, it is because of the strategy he pursues that he does not provoke others, and others do not provoke him.

In the supremacy of the court situation where the party struggle is becoming more and more fierce, his strategy can indeed be left alone, and no force will be willing to offend a minister who holds the power of election.

And if there is a struggle between the two forces, and it is difficult to resolve it peacefully, and it is finally necessary for him, the official Shangshu, to finalize it, Sun Tianguan will choose a fair and just method in order not to offend both, which is called the "drawing of lots".

To put it bluntly, it is a lottery that puts a few qualified candidates into a box and draws whoever counts whom.

It depends on luck to decide, fair and just, and when the result comes out, you can only blame yourself for your bad luck, and no one can blame Sun Tianguan.

It should be said that Sun Piyang's approach really ensured his safety, and he was cautious, even if he drew lots, he was not drawn casually, and in some important positions, he must first carefully examine the candidates' abilities to confirm that these people can afford to be sent and will not cause trouble, and then he will put his name in the box.

In this way, not only will not offend all forces in the court, but also make the emperor turn a blind eye.

However, this way of making peace with the mud obviously will not satisfy Zhu Changluo.

Of course, logically speaking, even if he is not satisfied, Zhu Changluo's first knife will not cut him down, after all, he is a high-ranking and powerful minister, and no one in the foreign court has more authority than him, and the weight of authority is almost comparable to that of the cabinet.

But it's a pity that Sun Tianguan was unlucky and met Wang Xijue as the first assistant.

This old Shoufu has devoted his life to reforming the rule of officials and cleaning up the officialdom, and in the past, the emperor was unwilling to toss so much, but the new emperor ascended the throne when he wanted to make some achievements.

Wang Xijue and Zhu Changluo hit it off, and they made up their minds to take the power of the officials into their pockets, which led to today's impeachment.

However, it is a pity that the situation is complicated, and the slightest change may have an unknowable impact.

Although Zhu Changluo temporarily gave up the reform of using Zhang Juzheng, some people forced Lao Shoufu to the edge of the cliff......

Under the dilemma, who cares whether your court situation will be turbulent, and they are all bullied, if you don't fight back, where is the majesty of Wang Xijue, the first assistant.

Seeing that some of the ministers below had gradually come to their senses, Zhu Changluo suddenly made a decision and said.

"What Yuan Fu said is very true, since the ministers are so petitioning, I don't want to dismiss the will of all the Aiqing, after today's next court, another court meeting, the cabinet auxiliary ministers and the seven secretaries of the foreign dynasty jointly discussed, how to replace the mining tax with a whip law, to solve the disadvantages of the incomplete law of our dynasty's enslavement, after the court discussion, the last article told me to know!"

The courtiers were dumbfounded again, wondering why the deposition of the mining tax in a short period of time had become a whip in the mouth of His Majesty.

The faces of several cabinet scholars below changed slightly, and when they heard Zhu Changluo's order, they couldn't hold back any longer, so they were about to step forward to speak, but Chen Ju had already taken a step ahead and shouted loudly.

"Your Majesty has a will, retreat from the dynasty!"
