Chapter 565: The Great Imperial Council

Zhu Houzhao fell into deep thought. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

He is the son of tomorrow, and everything must be decided by him in the end.

Fighting corruption is not something that can be done by patting the head, but requires the right medicine and firm determination.

At the moment, Zhu Houzhao is not sure whether the use of business to cure corruption is a good medicine.

Seeing that the Son of Heaven was contemplating and pondering, Xie Shen did not continue. Daming has gone through more than 100 years, and it is still glamorous from the outside, but in fact, it is full of holes. If you don't take strong medicine to treat you, I'm afraid you will be terminally ill.

Of course, the onset of illness will not occur in the Zhengde Dynasty. But Xie Shen felt that it was necessary to treat him in advance, rather than waiting until he was about to get sick and then go to the doctor.

It's really at the end of the Ming Dynasty, unless you cross with your golden thighs, you're really helpless.

Now that Xie Shen was in a high position, he felt that he needed to do something for the empire.

After a long time, Zhu Houzhao opened Chrysostom and said: "I think what Mr. said is reasonable, but I am afraid that it will be opposed by the Manchu officials." ”

Xie Shen is not worried, as long as Zhu Houzhao agrees with this, there is no obstacle.

Officials against? Then let them go against it! Since Xie Shen implemented the New Deal, has there been a time when they have not objected? Another time when they weren't slapped in the face by Xie Shen?

As long as the Son of Heaven supports Xie Shen, he has the confidence to carry out the new policy. As for the side affairs, he didn't need to pay attention to them at all.

"Your Majesty needs not worry. This matter can be brought out at the court meeting, and then the officials will have any thoughts and opinions for them to come to the ministers. ”

Belch......

In the face of Xie Shen's strength, Zhu Houzhao had long been used to it, so he nodded and said, "Just follow what Mr. said." ”

After saying this, Zhu Houzhao realized that Shoufu had not spoken yet, so he embarrassedly made up for it: "What do you think of Shoufu?" ”

Li Dongyang said with a smile: "What Your Majesty and Siming said is reasonable, and the minister agrees." ”

Today, Li Dongyang no longer has to do everything like he did at the beginning.

Many specific matters can be entrusted to Xie Shen. Li Dongyang was happy to be like this, and took the initiative to delegate power to Xie Shen, which was equivalent to indirectly cultivating Xie Shen's ability to make decisions and prepare for him to succeed the first assistant in the future.

As for Gu Dingchen, he naturally also agreed: "The minister also agrees." ”

He is very aware of his ability, and it is okay to be a wingman, but I am afraid that it is not possible for him to take the lead alone.

The four monarchs and ministers reached a consensus, and they were all happy.

The next day, the Son of Heaven held a grand court meeting in the Fengtian Temple, and as soon as he went to court, Xie Shen went out to ask for the merchant supervisor.

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar.

As the four monarchs and ministers had anticipated, the die-hard civil officials criticized Xie Shen and his plan, belittled him to nothing.

Xie Shen quietly listened to them pretending, and waited until the last person's voice disappeared before he coughed and said, "Since you have finished speaking, then Xie will also say a few words." ”

He looked stunned and said: "Since the founding of the country, there have been countless corrupt officials in the Ming Dynasty, have you ever thought about why?" That's because of the lack of a monitoring system. Some people may want to refute Xie and say that the supervision of imperial history is used to supervise officials. But do you think that a supervising imperial history can really inspect the entire chief executive? Even if they are really energetic and can patrol over, to put it mildly, what if they are bribed by corrupt officials. ”

Xie Shen's barrage of questions obviously silenced the officials who refuted him. Xie Shen slapped his face and continued: "Don't forget that the superintendent of the imperial history is also an official, and like those magistrates, he is a gentleman. In this case, it is inevitable that there will be a matter of officials protecting each other. ”

"Lord Cifu's words are wrong, you are doubting the integrity of my Ming officials!"

You Du Yu Shi Luo Li can't listen to it anymore, and the little pavilion elder is obviously coming for their capital procuratorate. If he doesn't refute it, I'm afraid it will leave the Son of Heaven with the impression that corrupt officials have been repeatedly banned because of the inaction of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

That's a problem.

"Lord Luo, Xie did not question the ethics of the imperial historians of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but there are some things that the system is more secure than the ethics."

Xie Shen said this sentence loudly, and he heard it clearly from top to bottom.

Luo Li's body was also shocked, it seemed that what Xiao Ge Lao said was very reasonable.

"If the Ming Dynasty gives all the power of supervision to supervise the imperial history, it is tantamount to relying on the personal ethics of the supervising imperial history. If these imperial histories have ethics, then it's okay. It's just a little tired, and there will be no complicity. But what if these imperial histories have no integrity? Isn't there a situation where officials protect each other? I believe that Lord Luo can't guarantee that there is not a single moth in the imperial history of the Imperial Inspectorate, right? ”

"This ......"

Luo Li was asked now, how could he not say it to death.

"Since you can use the system to restrain you, don't gamble on the personal ethics of officials, what Xie wants to implement is an institutionalized supervision system!"

After years of court experience, Xie Shen already has a strong aura. These words were so impassioned that no one dared to refute them for a while.

After a long time, Zheng Shiqiu, the left attendant of the ministry, said: "Xiaoge always said that it is light, but where is the system so easy to create. If you don't get it right, not only will the system not be created well, but it will also hurt the foundation, then it will be inappropriate. ”

Zheng Shiqiu said vaguely, but how could Xie Shen not hear his extraneous voice? It is nothing more than a worry that after the local officials are not greedy, the Bing Jing and Tan Jing of the Beijing officials will be affected.

These are all real interests, and Zheng Shiqiu can't help but worry.

Xie Shen smiled: "It's better to move the foundation than to rot the foundation." What does Master Zheng think? ”

Seeing Xie Shen's tongue fighting in the court, Gu Dingchen couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Xiao Ge Lao is indeed a god descended from heaven, and many ideas are definitely not something he can come up with.

"Look at the history books, which dynasty fell not because of corruption? Corruption affects the foundation of the country and hurts the feelings of the people. How can a dynasty whose foundations are shaken and whose foundations are shaken by the opposition of the people continue to rule? ”

"Little Pavilion Elder, what do you mean by that? Are you saying that the foundation of the Ming Dynasty has been loosened and has hurt the feelings of the people? ”

Feng Xiao finally couldn't help but speak out.

Xie Shen said earlier that the water does not leak, and he really can't find a place to put his beak. But this one can bite the word Wenjue to make a fuss.

Xie Shen knew that someone was going to hold on to his words, and responded very calmly: "None, none." Xie didn't say that Da Ming had reached such a point. But it is definitely not possible to treat headaches and foot pains. Since there is a disease, it is necessary to find out the root cause of the disease and cure it in one step. ”

"But what power does a businessman have to supervise officials, isn't this nonsense?"

Shinong industry and commerce, this is the status of the feudal dynasty order.

Taxi is the first, and Shang is the last.

Xie Shen had previously led the five-port trade ban and allowed the merchants to set up factories and industries on their own, and now he intends to give the powers of the merchants and supervision officials, what does he want to do?

Feng Xiaozhen felt that there was a traitor in the civilian clique.

......

......

There must be no compromise on the issue of combating corruption. Because once you have a weak heart, it is impossible for a strong man to break his wrist.

Compromise with corrupt officials is tantamount to allowing the towering tree of the Ming Dynasty to rot from its roots.

Zhu Houzhao and Xie Shenjunchen sang and harmonized, leaving the opposition speechless.

Although they felt that Xie Shen had betrayed the civilian clique, Xie Shen was very reasonable and had the support of the Son of Heaven, and they had nothing to do except to be quick to speak.

At this moment, Zhu Houzhao spoke.

"Since you have no opinions, I will issue an order to start with the Shuntian Mansion to try out the business supervisors. If there is a whistleblower official, Shang Jia can drop the whistleblower letter in the whistleblower box in front of the Shuncheon Mansion. The Shuncheon Government is responsible for compiling the complaint letter and submitting it to the Cabinet on a regular basis. ”

This is tantamount to concretizing one of Xie Shen's ideas.

The ministers didn't expect that the Son of Heaven would order this policy to be implemented so quickly, and it would be too resolute.

However, this is in line with the style of the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven also did what he said when he was touring north and south.

Although the policy is only a trial implementation, it undoubtedly shows the attitude of the Son of Heaven.

Just as the land of Qingzhang was first tried in Songjiang Prefecture in Nanzhili, followed by Jingshi and then the whole country, I am afraid that this policy will soon be implemented in Daming.

"Retreat."

As soon as His Majesty's majestic voice sounded, the coffin of this matter was closed.

......

......

After the court meeting, Xie Shen did not return to the cabinet, but went to the Hanlin Academy to find Tang Yin.

Returning to his hometown, Xie Shen was quite emotional.

More than ten years ago, Xie Shen started his career here, and since then he has risen to the top.

Now Tang Yin is also going to continue along his old path, but Xie Shen has a new arrangement for him.

Seeing that the second assistant of the current dynasty and the scholar of the palace came to the Hanlin Academy in person, the little official naturally said respectfully: "I don't know what is the important matter for the second assistant to come to the Hanlin Academy?" ”

Xie Shen was not angry and said arrogantly: "This official is here to find Tang Xiu, can he be in the Hanlin Academy?" ”

"Tang Xiu is compiling history, and the second assistant please come with the little one."

Xie Shen followed the little official to the office and strode in.

Seeing that Tang Yin was concentrating on looking at the history books, Xie Shenping walked behind him and slapped Tang Yin's shoulder with a smile, so frightened that Tang Xiushu almost fainted.

"Siming, what are you doing. It really scared the hell out of me. ”

Tang Yin was shocked and patted his chest to relieve his breath.

"I haven't seen you come to the Hanlin Academy for a while, I thought you forgot about me."

Xie Shen glanced at him and said, "You have no conscience." Whoever forgets you, I will not forget you. Tang Yin scratched his head and said with a smile: "I believe this." ”

"But I'm afraid that Siming has something important to do when he comes to Hanlin Academy, right?"

Tang Yin smiled slyly.

"I really can't hide anything."

Xie Shen spread his hands and said, "I came to Hanlin Academy to ask you in person, do you want to change the environment?" ”

Tang Yin was stunned and said, "What do you mean?" I'm getting promoted? ”

Xie Shen shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's not a promotion, it's just that if you do a good job, you can be in the emperor's heart." ”

Xie Shen said that the cloud was light and light, but Tang Yin listened with drool.

Obediently, that's Jane in the emperor's heart.

Is there any courtier who can do Jane in the emperor's heart who is not an important official position, and the last extremely human minister.

The best example is Xie Shen, who has a good relationship with His Majesty the Emperor, and all problems are not a problem.

"Siming, don't sell it, tell me what this new official position is?"

Tang Yin and Xie Shen are different, although they are both champions, their age difference when they won the champion is more than 20 years old.

Tang Yin is a forty-year-old champion, which is really worthless, if there has been no big movement in the past few years, I am afraid that the future of his career will be relatively bleak.

"Well, have you heard about the Great Pilgrimage?"

"Of course, Siming, your tongue is amazing."

"Stop being a sycophant. I'm looking for you for this. ”

Xie Shen said slowly: "Are you willing to serve as the Yin of Shuntian Mansion?" ”

"Huh?"

At this time, Tang Yin was completely stunned.

"Suncheon...... Suncheon Fu Yin? Siming isn't kidding, is he? ”

Obediently, this is equivalent to rising... How many levels?

Tang Yin felt a little dizzy, and he couldn't count them.

Although the Yin of Shuntian Mansion is not as good as the squire Shangshu, he is also a powerful official.

And the grade is there, and the prospect of both flat adjustment and promotion in the future is very impressive.

But... It shouldn't be such a good thing for nothing, right? There must be something hidden in this.

Seeing Tang Yin looking at him suspiciously, Xie Shen coughed and said, "Bohu, you have to believe that I am for your good." You are capable enough to be the governor of this office. Didn't Your Majesty put the report box outside the Shuntian Mansion? Your main task is to compile these letters of complaint and present them to the Cabinet. ”

“......”

Tang Yin's expression at the moment is really wonderful, the kind of grievance and helplessness are intertwined like an angry little daughter-in-law.

"Why don't you want to be this Shuntian Mansion Yin?"

Xie Shen quipped.

"No, of course I do. It's just that this is an offending job. ”

Tang Yin said in his heart that if he really submitted these report letters to the cabinet, he would definitely offend the officials who were reported. But if he doesn't submit these report letters, he will become complicit with the reported officials, and he is afraid that he will be wrathed by the Son of Heaven.

It's a dilemma.

Tang Yin pursed his lips, obviously weighing the pros and cons.

Xie Shen didn't urge him, just waited quietly.

In the end, Tang Yin gritted his teeth and said: "Forget it, since Siming thinks of me like this, I naturally can't do that ridiculous thing of retreat." ”

"Good brother! I read you right! ”

Xie Shen patted Tang Yin's shoulder and said with a smile.

"Hehe, I'm sticking a knife in your ribs for Siming. I'm afraid that there will be more than two black knives when I get there, and I will be poked into a bloody hole. ”

"You don't have to worry about this. When the time comes, I will ask Your Majesty to give you some brocade clothes to protect you. Then see which little thief dares to approach you. There were really those who were not interested, so they asked the Jinyi guard to use an embroidered spring knife to stab them in a bloody hole. ”

Tang Yin laughed out loud when he heard this: "Why is everything so easy in Siming's mouth, as if playing." ”

Xie Shen shrugged his shoulders and said, "Mentality is very important. Haven't you heard that people with poor mentality grow old quickly? ”

"This ...... I've never heard of it before. ”

Tang Bohu smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty really values Siming. As long as it is something that Siming is pushing, His Majesty will support it. Even the matter of conferring officials is just one sentence. ”

"You can't say that. I also recommended you as the Yin of Shuntian Mansion because you have this condition. The dignified champion Yuanlang has also boiled his qualifications in the Hanlin Academy, and even if he is promoted to Shuntian Mansion Yin, there are not so many people who oppose it. If you change to an ordinary Jinshi, you must not be drowned by spitting. ”
