Liu Jian was quite complacent when he read out the cabinet's reform plan, after all, it can not only reduce expenditure, but also allow people who are unhappy to look at it to get out of the center of power completely, and no matter how bad it is, it can make them stop for a while. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Of course, Liu Jian is not stupid, and he still has the intention of being an example. While pitting Nanjing's political opponent and chief enemy Liu Jin, he also set an example and asked for a self-reduction.

Zhu Houzhao has been smiling and watching Liu Jian jump into the pit he dug himself, and even occasionally add fuel to the fire, except for the dismissal of the eunuchs, he did not clearly express it, and he gently bowed his head or shouted loudly to express his attitude.

But such an attitude is undoubtedly to further kick several members of the cabinet into the fire pit.

In fact, Zhu Houzhao really couldn't understand why he would make such a low-level mistake with the wisdom of a few people in the cabinet. Such a thing similar to digging up people's ancestral graves dares to make collective decisions.

But Zhu Houzhao likes it very much.

He couldn't guess why the cabinet bosses didn't look down on the businessmen's ability to contribute, let alone why they would resolutely oppose the opening of the sea ban.

The strange superiority of the ancients is incomprehensible, although we are.

But wouldn't it be cooler to take other people's things and use them casually?

Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, and Xie Qian are simply the three mountains that press on Zhu Houzhao's head. You can do this kind of thing, of course, if you don't want to see the scenery behind the mountain.

But as soon as you want to look at it, the mountain that suddenly feels like it doesn't move becomes an eyesore.

Therefore, after the defense of the capital, when there was no more war in the north (provided that Zhu Houzhao did not want to completely destroy the Tatars), removing these three stumbling blocks that hindered the forward progress of the rolling wheels had become Zhu Houzhao's primary purpose at present.

However, Zhu Houzhao did not plan to take action in person, after all, the three cabinet ministers had just been rewarded by him Zhu Houzhao half a year ago, and they were regarded as the newly promoted three lonely ministers, and Zhu Houzhao had no reason to slap himself in the face.

After Liu Jian finished saying the cabinet's proposal, Zhu Houzhao nodded very sincerely, but withdrew without saying a word. Although he already has a proposition in his heart, the tax does not mean that he can set as high as he wants, this is a delicate job, and Zhu Houzhao is now waiting for news.

Sure enough, after retiring from the court, in just three days, Zhu Houzhao's desk was already full of memoranda of officials from prefectures and counties near the capital, and the content on them was without exception not an impeachment of the cabinet's tyranny.

Of course, the wording of the Beijing official is much more serious than that of the foreign official, and he has almost opened his mouth to scold his mother.

These words, which had been used on the eunuch Liu Jin, appeared on several auxiliary ministers, and Zhu Houzhao believed that the cabinet people must have been confused and angry when they handed over these folds to themselves.

In the evening, Liu Jin, who had been busy with other things, appeared in front of Zhu Houzhao.

Seeing that Zhu Houzhao didn't say anything, he knelt down and took off his hat and put it in his hand, without saying a word, but the meaning was obvious, there were too many eunuchs in the palace who were disliked by the cabinet, and they wanted to cut a little throttle, so as the well-deserved leader of the eunuchs in the palace, he Liu Jin had no choice but to take the lead.

Ma De, seeing Liu Jin's extremely loyal appearance, Zhu Houzhao wondered countless times whether he had seen the wrong person from the history books.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, history books are generally written by orthodox literati, and these people may not have a good impression of eunuchs. This can be seen from the evaluation of Zheng He who made seven voyages to the West in the orthodox history books, which is far less high than that of later generations.

Zhu Houzhao walked to Liu Jin's side, picked up the hat he put aside and put it on for Liu Jin, and said with relief: "Liu Ge Lao is not targeting you alone, or he thinks that the expenses in the palace are too big, tens of thousands of people can spend millions of taels of silver a year." ”

Liu Jin was very angry, and said: "Your Majesty, all this money is the silver in the inner treasury, and it has nothing to do with the treasury. Liu Ge Lao, they are targeting slaves and maids! ”

Liu Jin will make old mistakes when he is nervous, and there are really few people in the entire Ming Dynasty who call themselves slaves and slaves like him, and they can't change it.

Zhu Houzhao said with a smile: "How can outsiders rest assured that the people around them can rest assured, if you don't use it, do you still expect me to cook the pot myself?" Get up, I won't drive you out of the palace even if I wash the dishes and cook by myself, unless I have an errand for you to do. ”

Liu Jin got up and reported his work before going out.

Zhu Houzhao looked at Liu Jin's back meaningfully, his eyes uncertain. Over the years, Liu Jin's performance has been perfect, whether it is Zhu Houzhao's lack of heart when he was young, or his recklessness later, or even the bearing of a person in a position of position and the courage to take responsibility that have become more and more revealed after holding power in recent days, all make him as impeccable as the growth process of a normal person.

To be honest, Zhu Houzhao can't see where Liu Jin's evil point is, if he has to point out one, it is just a dog fighting people, which is more or less a little bit personal.

On the seventh day, Zhu Houzhao quickly drafted a holy decree and sent it to the cabinet, which stated that the emperor had thoroughly agreed with the cabinet's proposal to reduce expenditure after careful consideration.

As Zhu Houzhao expected, as soon as the holy decree was sent to the cabinet, it was sent back in a hurry within two hours.

Seal back. For the first time, the privileges of the Cabinet were used in Zhu Houzhao's court. The reason for this is that the emperor agreed to the cabinet's proposal and then led to the return of the seal, and such a strange news may not appear in the entire Ming Dynasty.

So Zhu Houzhao's bad taste was committed, and people sent their will to the cabinet with great fanfare, beating gongs and drums one after another.

As for the effect, Zhu Houzhao didn't know, but there were more and more bullet stamps on Zhu Houzhao's desk, and a lot of them were sent over from Nanjing.

Zhu Houzhao is straight to see the above content, but all bad words can be found from above, and even those who scold their mothers exist.

Zhu Houzhao has reason to believe that the faces of several members of the cabinet are probably already green at this moment.

Seeing that there were more and more bullet seals, and even a few of the elder's cronies and disciples showed signs of rebellion, Zhu Houzhao knew that the heat was enough.

The mountains are still the same as before, but after countless people have gone to open the mountain one after another, the mountain will not be so high when Zhu Houzhao goes to walk again, and it can even be said that Zhu Houzhao at this time has been sent to the top of the mountain by all the officials who were affected by the layoff and salary adjustment incident.

Further on, it is a smooth road with infinitely good scenery.

When the court meeting began again, Zhu Houzhao was holding a large stack of thick documents with a very detailed reform plan on it.

In the early morning of this day, seeing the first dew of Danyang, Zhu Houzhao took a deep breath of the somewhat cool but fragrant morning breeze, and suddenly felt that the morning sun was infinitely better!
