Chapter 302: Emperor Xuande's troubles
(
When Li Yuntian left the Forbidden City, the night was already dark, and he kept yawning in the car, and today he was tired enough, "cleaning up" those arrogant soldiers during the day, and accompanying Emperor Xuande to review the recitals in the middle of the night at night. The update is the fastest and most stable
Perhaps because of the similar age, coupled with the fact that the two had "shared hardships" in Jining Mansion, Emperor Xuande and Li Yuntian had a very casual conversation, and the two had a lot of common language, and their views on things were also very similar.
Therefore, after talking about the secret music, Emperor Xuande asked Li Yuntian's opinion on the things played on the table.
Unlike Emperor Hongwu, Emperor Yongle and Emperor Hongxi, the young Emperor Xuande did not have as much energy to devote to the tedious affairs of reviewing the chapters.
However, the cabinet would not reduce the number of recitals of Shangchen because Emperor Hong Xi did not have the energy, so hundreds of recitals were transferred from the cabinet every day for Emperor Xuande to be approved.
In the first year of Hongxi, the authority of the cabinet was not as great as that of later generations, and the cabinet members could state their opinions on small matters and paste small notes on the top of the chapter to show Emperor Xuande, but those major events still had to be made by Emperor Xuande himself, and Emperor Xuande was asked to approve the imperial pen.
After all, even Emperor Hong Xi, who had greatly improved the status of the cabinet, still had to make his own decisions when facing major affairs in the court, and at most summoned cabinet members to discuss.
As a result, Emperor Xuande spent a lot of time reviewing the recitals every day.
What made Emperor Xuande particularly depressed was that the handling opinions on the recitals that had been annotated by the cabinet members were basically in line with his wishes, and the cabinet members were all experienced ministers, and they were very good at dealing with the things on the recitals.

And Emperor Xuande's notes on those that were annotated by the cabinet members, usually directly instructed them to follow the ideas of the cabinet members after reading them.
As for those important recitals, Emperor Xuande often summoned cabinet members and court officials of the corresponding ministries to discuss, because these cabinet members and court officials were obviously more proficient in the affairs played on the music than Emperor Xuande, and in the end, it was usually the cabinet members and court officials who made the decision.
This kind of thing is happening day after day, how can Emperor Xuande not feel upset? In his opinion, the cabinet members can handle these pieces well, so why bother to let him suffer again.
But then again, Emperor Xuande is the son of the great tomorrow, so he naturally has to firmly grasp the decision-making power of the chapter, otherwise wouldn't the cabinet have to empty it?
Since Li Yuntian is here today, Emperor Xuande will easily arrest him.
Emperor Xuande did not do this on a whim, Li Yuntian worked as a magistrate in Hukou County, and often checked the accounts of the major yamen in the capital, so whether it was the affairs of the major ministries and yamen in the capital or the local government and county, it was clear to him, and in his opinion, it was just right to relieve his worries. The update is the fastest and most stable
Indeed, Li Yuntian did not disappoint Emperor Xuande, after reading those recitals, he talked eloquently, and heard Emperor Xuande nodding his head from time to time, very satisfied with his opinions, and with a wave of the imperial pen, he handled affairs according to Li Yuntian's intentions on those recitals.
Therefore, it was not until he finished approving the pieces on the table that Li Yuntian was able to get out and rushed back to the barracks to continue to "repair" those soldiers, and his mood on the road was a little dull.
If he is not mistaken, the eunuch of the celebrant had the power to replace the emperor in the Xuande period, although Emperor Xuande has not yet handed over the power of approving the red to the eunuch of the celebrant eunuch, but there are already signs of this.
In the evening, those pieces were read out by Jin Ying, who was waiting on the sidelines, and he picked out the important content and omitted some irrelevant words.
Li Yuntian was surprised to find that when he suggested to Emperor Xuande, Jin Ying easily picked out the core content of the next cantata, and it was obvious that he often read the cantata to Emperor Xuande.
In this way, it is inevitable that Emperor Xuande would sometimes consult Jin Ying's opinion, and Jin Ying would sometimes state his opinion on the music at Emperor Xuande's request.
Jin Ying has been by Emperor Xuande's side since he was a child, and he is Emperor Xuande's most trusted eunuch, otherwise he would not have become the eunuch of the master of ceremonies.
Therefore, Jin Ying knew Emperor Xuande's preferences and "sex" very well, and his views on those pieces were absolutely in line with Emperor Xuande's intentions, which made Emperor Xuande invisibly have a kind of trust in Jin Ying.
Obviously, when Emperor Xuande was completely irritable about the approval of the chapter, he would not hand over the decision of the chapter to the cabinet members, so the only people who could use it around him were the eunuchs in the palace. [29915671 ruling the Ming Dynasty] 299 ruling the Ming Dynasty 302
Especially those eunuchs who are worthy of his trust, such as Jin Ying, to help him share his worries.
In the eyes of the emperors, there is no doubt that the eunuchs and domestic slaves in the palace are foreign ministers, and those civil and military ministers in the court are foreign ministers, which are different from inside and outside, and when foreign ministers are not needed, they will naturally reuse domestic slaves.
Although Li Yuntian believed that Emperor Xuande's move violated Emperor Hongwu's ancestral precept that the inner servants and the harem were not allowed to interfere in politics, since Emperor Yongle had already begun to send town guards to the local government, it would not be a big deal for Emperor Xuande to reuse eunuchs, and the courtiers would not oppose it, after all, Emperor Yongle had already set a precedent and there was a precedent to follow.
Li Yuntian sat in the car and closed his eyes to recuperate, there was too much information he got from Emperor Xuande today, he had to sort out the thoughts in his mind.
The carriage passed through the silent streets, and along the way, it met two teams of soldiers and horses who were patrolling the night, and when they saw a dozen guards on horseback around the carriage, they immediately flashed to the side with interest.
Obviously, the people in the car are definitely related to those nobles in the capital, because the clothes worn by those guards are unique to the personal soldiers in the family of the nobles in the capital.
As the chief of the Ming Dynasty, the nobles of the court had a different number of personal soldiers in the palace to visit the home and nursing home, and these personal soldiers would go to the battlefield as soldiers to protect the safety of those nobles in wartime.
After ascending the throne as emperor, Emperor Yongle favored the nobles who followed him, so he allowed the nobles' mansions to have a certain number of personal soldiers as guards, ranging from dozens to more than 100 people, and stipulated the standard of the clothing of the nobles and soldiers at the three levels of gong, hou and bo, to show distinction.
These guards around Li Yuntian were naturally Zhou Zheng's personal soldiers, Li Yuntian had stirred up two good things for the King of Han, and Zhou Zheng must have been worried that the King of Han would be unfavorable to him, so he sent his own soldiers to protect him.
Because of the personal soldier clothes on those guards, the soldiers and horses who patrolled the streets recognized their identities at a glance, so how dare they provoke them, wouldn't it be enough to eat.
When the carriage arrived at the barracks, the barracks gates were closed.
The soldiers guarding the gate were surprised to see Li Yuntian come back so late, thinking that Li Yuntian went home and went to sleep with his wife in his arms, after all, there was no need for him to suffer in the barracks.
According to the teaching plan set up by Li Yuntian, those military men who participated in the lecture hall assessment could go back to the barracks to rest after the literacy class in the evening.
At this time, it was already midnight, and the soldiers were tired and slept soundly after a day.
Li Yuntian inspected the dormitory where the soldiers lived, and through the door, he could clearly hear the snoring inside, and it seemed that these guys today were really tired enough.
After yawning lazily, Li Yuntian waved to one of the guards behind him, whispered a few words to him, and the guard hurried away.
About half a day later, a group of sleepy-eyed soldiers trotted over, led by a thousand households, and the guard had just woken them up from their sleep.
"My lord, what do you command?" Although the Qianhu was a little dissatisfied in his heart, he didn't dare to show anything on his face, and bowed respectfully to Li Yuntian who was standing in front of the barracks.
This Qianhu surnamed Zhao was responsible for leading his soldiers to assist Li Yuntian in assessing those soldiers.
"Blow the whistle, tell the group of guys inside, assemble urgently, and the last twenty people who join the team do a hundred push-ups." The dormitories where the soldiers lived were in the same row of bungalows, and each dormitory slept twenty people.
"Urgent gathering, the last twenty hundred push-ups!"
Zhao Qianhu was slightly stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Li Yuntian to toss those soldiers at this time, and then took out a copper whistle that Li Yuntian had specially made from his arms, put it in his mouth and blew it, shouting while blowing.
As the whistle sounded, the originally silent dormitory suddenly exploded, and the soldiers who woke up from their sleep hurriedly "touched" the black clothes in a hurry, and many people whined in their mouths and cursed the whistle blowers in a low voice.
Soon after, the doors of the dormitory were opened one after another, and many people ran out in a panic, some of them were dressed while running, some of them were carrying pants and coats, and some of them were even barefoot and shoulderless.
"Listen, only those who are fully dressed will enter the queue!" Seeing this, Li Yuntian shouted at the disheveled soldiers.
Hearing his words, some people who lacked clothes and shoes quickly turned around and rushed into the dormitory in a hurry.
has been tossing most of the tea, and those soldiers have stood in line one after another.
At the front of the queue, a dozen people stood dejectedly, unfortunate enough to be in the last twenty, and a few others were still searching for missing clothes in the darkly lit dormitories.
Li Yuntian waved his hand at Zhao Qianhu, and Zhao Qianhu asked people to bring out a few guys who lacked clothes in the house.
Some of them were not wearing pants, some were missing their coats, and some were barefoot, all of them drooping their heads, and they were standing at the front of the queue with depressed expressions, not knowing which bastards had taken advantage of the "chaos" to take their things just now.
The soldiers in the queue were no better, although they were properly dressed, some of their clothes and shoes were either big or small, and they were not their own, and some of them were wearing two shoes on the same foot, and they stood there with a twist.
"It's almost a cup of tea since the whistle blows, do you know what that means?" Li Yuntian glanced around at the soldiers in the queue expressionlessly, and said coldly, "This means that once the enemy army sneaks up, you will become the target of the other party's sword practice!" ”
"Listen, in view of your snail-like speed, this official has decided to open a 'small stove' for you, so that you don't enter the martial arts hall in the future to 'scourge' those students."
As he spoke, Li Yuntian stretched out his hand and said 3. Qua Lu Crisp Garui Scar Niu Youjia Xin plays the Γ
The soldiers sighed one after another when they heard this, and ran around the school field with a depressed face, and many people secretly cursed Li Yuntian in their hearts.
Li Yuntian had already drawn an oval-shaped runway on the school field according to the specifications of the stadium, one circle was about 400 meters, and ten circles were 4,000 meters, and the soldiers were complaining about this.
But then they kept their mouths shut, because Li Yuntian led by example and also joined the running team, which made everyone have nothing to say, and could only obediently consider themselves unlucky.
Li Yuntian had a total of three emergency gatherings in the evening, the first punishment was to run laps, the second punishment was to stand in a military posture, and the third punishment was to leap frogs.
** The soldiers were tossed and choked enough, not only exhausted but also highly nervous, and finally they slept in their clothes, and for the first time they found what a beautiful and luxurious thing it was to sleep comfortably
