Chapter 887: Qiongzhou, Ryukyu
The five-day case court is actually to convene the ministers to come over for a meeting, which is called "court meeting". Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Lu Chengqi, who got up early, was served by the palace maid and put white powder on his face.
Originally, after Lu Chengqi grew a beard, he was even more majestic. This time I applied the powder, and I became even more unangry and arrogant.
Lu Chengqi put on a black dragon gon and embroidered nine swimming dragons. It is a cumbersome thing to wear a dragon gon from top to bottom, and it is necessary to wear a crown, a black robe, a silk dress, a white Luo belt, a yellow knee, a plain yarn in the single, and a red carapace.
The bronze bell rang, and the hundred officials lined up according to their official positions, and entered the Daqing Hall in turn to wait. At this time, the court orchestra also began to play, indicating that the emperor had arrived. After a while, I saw Lu Chengqi slowly walking into the Daqing Hall surrounded by everyone. There are strong chamberlains Zhang Wu umbrella cover, four palace women holding four fans, after Lu Chengqi sits, each standing in the east and west behind the dragon seat.
When everything was ready, the inner attendant shouted: "The emperor has arrived, and all the officials have come to see the court!" ”
In the Daqing Palace, all the officials of the five-rank Beijing are above the five-rank capital, holding the court wat and giving a long bow, and respectfully said to Lu Chengqi: "See Your Majesty!" ”
Lu Chengqi said lightly: "Zhongqing is flat. If you have something to play early, you have nothing to retreat! ”
Baiguan hesitated for a moment, and then there was a little commotion, but in the end, it was Zhou Yanhua, the imperial historian, who came out and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has something unclear. ”
Zhou Yanhua is his father-in-law, and the official is the imperial doctor, so it stands to reason that he is equivalent to the prime minister. But at this time, the power of the imperial historian has long been inferior to that of previous dynasties. seems to be the supreme governor of the Imperial Historical Observatory, but in fact, the Imperial Historical Observatory has always been in charge of the Imperial Historical Observatory, and the Imperial Historian is just a fictitious title, with no prestige.
However, Zhou Yanhua still has a position, which is called Zuo Servant Shooting.
Servant shooting, servant is the meaning of "supervisor", ancient heavy martial arts, the main shooter is in charge, so the chief of the officials is called servant shooting.
So the left servant shoots, which is the meaning of the left jae-suke. Don't think that Dashun is just a Zaifu, in fact, there can be a lot. There is one chief and assistant, two deputy governors, one of the three envoys (counters), and two servants on the left and right, and a total of six people can be set up to check and balance each other.
But Dashun's left and right servants are not permanent, and the governor's political affairs are often held by one person, plus since Yuan Shou, the three divisions are virtually nonexistent, so Zaifu's power can be imagined, and it is not at all a governor's political affairs that can be checked and balanced. Therefore, Lu Chengqi no longer set up Zaifu, but created a cabinet to divide the power of the prime minister, and now even the left and right servants have been set up.
Without him, in order to prevent someone from dictatorship, if there is another Yang Taishi, Lu Chengqi can turn defeat into victory, but it does not mean that his descendants can turn defeat into victory.
Zhou Yanhua is his father-in-law, and it stands to reason that he should not be able to reuse his relatives.
But Zhou Yanhua is a well-known iron-faced blue sky, upright, and not greedy for power, and Lu Cheng is more at ease. Anyway, there are also cabinet checks and balances, a relative...... It seems that he can't turn up any storms, not to mention that Zhou Yanhua is also an upright courtier, so he doesn't see any stains.
Lu Chengqi was obviously in a good mood, and said with a pleasant face: "Zhou Qing, but it doesn't hurt to say it!" ”
"Your Majesty, the minister doesn't understand, why do you want to send the convicts and people to Ryukyu and Qiongzhou? Qiongzhou is the inherent territory of my Dashun, but Ryukyu is the land of the Ryukyu country, why should it be forcibly occupied? Although I am a big country, but a big country oppresses a small country, and I am a vassal country, isn't it a joke and criticism? ”
Zhou Yanhua's words made Lu Chengqi stunned for a moment.
That's right, he ordered some officials who had violated the "Commercial Law" to demote them and ordered them to cross the sea to Taiwan and the Gulf, but he would never have imagined that someone would actually say something on this issue. When he thought about it, he knew that Zhou Yanhua had misunderstood. Ryukyu is not a Ryukyu country, it generally refers to Taiwan and Bay, but Ryukyu is close to Ryukyu country, so it is called Ryukyu by the way.
At this time, the right servant who didn't know why shot Li Ran also came out to help: "Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal!" ”
There is also Zhang Fangping, who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and he also came out with a court wat and said: "Your Majesty, this move is despised by the world, and the will should be withdrawn as soon as possible!" ”
This is also the personnel change of the central minister of Dashun in recent years. Originally, the official Shangshu Zhou Yanhua of the Criminal Department was promoted to Zuo Servant Shot, Imperial Shi Dafu, who followed the emperor and was responsible for supervising the Chinese military officials of the dynasty. In addition to his own work, Yu Shi Zhongcheng also did some administrative affairs, such as being in charge of the recital of the ministers and hundreds of officials, and being in charge of the secretary of the books. Originally, Li Ran was promoted to the right servant in the imperial history, and Zhang Fangping, who was also upright, was appointed in the imperial history. Several of them smelled like each other, and they faintly formed an offensive and defensive alliance in the court.
Lu Chengqi knew that they were geographically illiterate, and they couldn't even figure out Ryukyu and the Ryukyu Kingdom, let alone say anything. Lu Chengqi did not respond positively, but asked the chamberlain to get the sub-world map.
Spread out the world map by the two chamberlains, Lu Chengqi slowly walked down the dragon chair, pointed to the place above and said: "Zhongqing misunderstood, Ryukyu is not a Ryukyu country, but an inherent territory of my Central Plains. If you don't believe it, please see. The Ryukyu Kingdom is here, but there are only some archipelagos; But I am a big island in the Ryukyus. Sugarcane can be grown on the island for sugar production and trade; It can also grow rice, which can be harvested three times a year. It's just that now the natives of the island don't want to farm, so I sent officials to persuade them to teach agriculture and engage in fishing in the sea. If my estimate is correct, millions of families can move to the island, millions of hectares of fertile land can be obtained, and the local natives can be kingen, why not? ”
Lu Chengqi came up with tangible evidence, and these officials shut up. Knowing that they have made a common-sense mistake, where do they dare to lose face?
But it's not a big deal, being an official in Dashun, which one hasn't made a mistake? As long as you are not greedy and do not neglect your duties, generally no one will impeach you. Even the law protects such erring officials. Therefore, the officials of Dashun are not afraid of making mistakes and dare to let go of their hands to do it.
Lu Chengqi continued: "When Ryukyu was in the Xia and Shang Dynasty, it belonged to Yangzhou in Kyushu. During the Three Kingdoms, Wu Wang Sun Quan sent the generals Wei Wen and Zhuge Zhi to lead a fleet of more than 10,000 soldiers and more than 30 ships to arrive at Yizhou, that is, Ryukyu. Since the previous dynasty, there have been Han people who have settled in Penghu and even sailed to Ryukyu, why is Ryukyu the territory of the Ryukyu Kingdom? ”
Zhou Yanhua was also single, and directly admitted his mistake: "If the minister doesn't notice, he misunderstands His Majesty for a while, and he deserves death!" ”
Lu Chengqi said generously: "Whoever has no fault can change it." But this Ryukyu seems to be quite confusing. In this way, change the name to Yizhou, and restore the old name of the Han Dynasty! ”
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Seeing Lu Chengqi's generosity, the officials hurriedly complimented him. (To be continued.) )
