Chapter 170: Scoundrel

Without looking at Gao Hongtu again, Emperor Yaoqi glanced around the hall and said loudly: "Is there anything else to do with Aiqing?" If not, then retreat! ”

After Emperor Yaoqi finished speaking, the ministers below did not speak, and Emperor Yaoqi glanced at Chen Hong in a gesture, then stood up and walked out.

After returning to the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Yaoqi walked on the dragon book case with a smile, and after a short time, Chen Hong also followed. Glancing at Chen Hong, Emperor Yaoqi smiled and said, "How is it?" What about Gao Hongtu? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Gao Hongtu is outside, but Yuan Yingtai, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and Yuan Dajin are also here. The minister told him that His Majesty had not summoned him, but he did not listen and insisted on seeing His Majesty. Chen Hong was a little afraid to look at Emperor Yaoqi, and at the same time complained to Yuan Yingtai in his heart, how could he look like a scoundrel when he became a civil official. In fact, Chen Hong didn't understand that these civil officials in the imperial court were common to scoundrels in some places.

Slightly stunned, Emperor Yaoqi didn't expect Yuan Yingtai to come, but this matter is just right with the Ministry of Works. The last time he wanted to reorganize the Ministry of Works, he was vetoed by himself, so bring him in this time! Glancing at Chen Hong, who was quite helpless, Emperor Yaoqi smiled and said, "Let them come in!" Yuan Yingtai came just in time, lest I have to look for him in the future. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" After giving a salute to Emperor Yaoqi, Chen Hong turned around and left.

Not long after, Yuan Yingtai and Gao Hongtu walked in under the leadership of Chen Hong, and the two of them knelt down together to salute Emperor Yaoqi.

After letting the two enter, Emperor Yaoqi said with a smile: "Today, I have got a virtuous minister, Gao Aiqing, and the court has a lot of mouths, what do you think now!" Yuan Dajin, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, is also here, I will accompany you to sum up the total, and see what to do about these things? ”

"Your Majesty, the minister went to the Ministry of Rectification last time, but His Majesty did not allow it, and the minister understands. However, this time, the minister felt that the time had come, not only the Ministry of Industry, but also the six cabinet ministries in Beijing should all be rectified, and only by enforcing orders and prohibitions could state affairs be smooth. Yuan Yingtai bowed to Emperor Yaoqi and said respectfully. He has been in Liaodong for many years, and he knows the virtue of these officials in the capital, and since he has the opportunity, he must change this status quo.

Glancing at Yuan Yingtai, Emperor Yaoqi did not speak, but looked at Gao Hongtu and said with a smile: "Gao Aiqing, tell me what you think!" ”

Seeing Emperor Yaoqi's attitude, Yuan Yingtai's face suddenly turned red, and he couldn't help but be a little excited, so he wanted to speak again.

"Yuan Aiqing, you have to say it sentence by sentence, you have to eat the meal bite by bite, the things that are not so simple, many things are all involved in the whole body. We must think carefully, since ancient times, whether it is the reform of the law or the rectification and establishment of a new one, which time has not suffered heavy losses? How many more successes? Don't always think that you have to do something when you think of it, think about it. You are a dignified secretary of the Ministry of Works, a first-class member of the imperial court, why are you not as calm as Gao Aiqing? Seeing Yuan Yingtai's appearance, Emperor Yaoqi suddenly sank his face and said with some displeasure.

seemed to realize that Emperor Yaoqi was angry, Yuan Yingtai suddenly looked serious, gave a salute to Emperor Yaoqi, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty is wise and martial, these words are like an initiation, as long as you have Your Majesty's words, the minister will understand." Rest assured, Your Majesty, the minister must have thought it through, before he had a detailed strategy. The minister will not do anything. ”

Seeing Yuan Yingtai's expression and listening to what he said, Emperor Yaoqi knew that he had been fooled. Didn't expect to dare to play a game in front of the emperor? This Yuan Yingtai made it clear that he was waiting for Emperor Yaoqi's words!

glared at Yuan Yingtai fiercely, and Emperor Yaoqi smiled and said to Gao Hongtu: "Gao Aiqing, say it!" Ignore this scoundrel! ”

"Your Majesty, the minister wants to say a word for Yuan Dajin, Yuan Dajin is selfless, and he doesn't care about his private name for the sake of state affairs, this person is rarely seen in the court!" Saying that, he looked at Yuan Yingtai, and said with a look of reverence: "I have heard the name of Yuan Dajin for a long time, and I am fortunate to see Sansheng today. ”

"Tall and big, it's over! How can Yuan dare to be compared with the ancient sages? But today's tall into the main hall of a blockbuster, quite the style of the ancient, I believe that after he is tall and famous, this is a good story! Yuan Yingtai hurriedly looked like he didn't dare, and with a smile on his face, he was polite on the side, but on the other hand, he put on the appearance that what you said was me.

Seeing the two entries touting each other, Emperor Yaoqi felt slightly certain in his heart, looking at the appearance of the two entries, there should be no problem with the partner in the future. However, he had a very unhappy expression on his face, snorted coldly, and asked, "What do you think of this place?" Didn't I give you a card to put an incense case, and then you came to Taoyuan three knots? ”

"Your Majesty, this Taoyuan Three Knots are three in, and we are only two in!" Yuan Yingtai's expression was very serious, and the tone of his speech was also very serious, but the words he said were ridiculous according to the 1st day.

Glancing at Yuan Yingtai, Emperor Yaoqi said quite seriously: "Do you really think that I can let you do whatever you want, tell you, don't make me anxious, otherwise I will do everything." ”

Seeing that Emperor Yaoqi was angry, Yuan Yingtai knelt on the ground and said loudly: "The saint enters the clouds: 'The king let the minister die, and the minister has to die. The Father caused the Son to perish, and the Son had to perish. 'I, Yuan Yingtai, have been worthy of death all my life, and I can be described as the place of death. Kong Ri becomes benevolent, Meng Ri takes righteousness! The minister can die for His Majesty's festival today, and the minister deserves to die without regrets. ”

Seeing Yuan Yingtai's appearance of a scoundrel, Emperor Yao Qi** was laughed at angrily, and Gao Hongtu on the side was also dumbfounded, he really didn't expect that Yuan Yingtai would still have such a side. What Gao Hongtu didn't expect was that Emperor Yaoqi's good temper, Yuan Yingtai was like this, and Emperor Yaoqi could still tolerate it, this is really the Holy Lord of the Ming Monarch!

Seeing Gao Hongtu's expression, Emperor Yaoqi felt that it was almost the same, and when he saw that Yuan Yingtai was still pretending there, he couldn't help but be angry. Glancing at Chen Hong, Emperor Yaoqi said in a deep voice: "Chen Hong, how do you think Yuan Dajin should be dealt with in this matter?" ”

"Back to the emperor, Yuan Da lost his honor before entering the king, and he talked nonsense, and he should launch the noon gate court staff. However, Yuan Dajin has served in Liaodong for many years, and he has worked hard for the Ministry of Industry, and if he really fights, if he is broken, it will damage His Majesty's reputation of wisdom and benevolence. However, if this is not punished, it will be spread out, and it will inevitably be imitated in the future, which will damage His Majesty's prestige. So the minister thinks it's better not to fight, change some other punishments, the minister heard that Yuan Da entered the house on a Ling'er, born smart and clever, and Yuan Dajin likes it on weekdays, otherwise this Ling'er will be announced into the palace, even if it is a punishment! Looking at Yuan Yingtai with a smile, Chen Hong said with a smile.

At this time, Chen Hong's heart was full of the pleasure of revenge, he came to this set last time, and he came again this time? Our family has been prepared.

"Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, the minister deserves it, how the emperor punishes the minister, the minister has no complaints, please let the emperor let Ling'er go!" After listening to Chen Hong's words, Yuan Yingtai was immediately shocked and said with a nervous face.

Glancing at Gao Hongtu, Emperor Yaoqi smiled and said: "Ling'er is a bird raised by Yuan Yingtai, Aiqing doesn't have to care, let him kneel!" Otherwise, our monarchs and ministers didn't speak the law, and the last time I rejected his opinion, these few years have been contradicting me! ”

"Your Majesty is really magnanimous, and he is really a prosperous monarch!" Gao Hongtu understood at this time, and he also admired Emperor Yaoqi, and when he saw Emperor Yaoqi signaling himself, he continued: "The ministers have inspected the lives of craftsmen, and they can be described as very poor, and the court allocates a lot of money every year, but they are very little. The minister felt that a separate weapon manufacturing yamen should be established, which could be under the name of the Ministry of War, but not under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War. Under this yamen, two parts were set up: workshop and intensive research, which was to study and improve existing equipment, that is, firearms, swords and armor, and so on. As for the workshop, it should be specialized in the production of refined things. Because this yamen is mostly involved in the military department, it produces more military products, and all of them should be attached to the military department. As for the change and promotion of agricultural equipment, it should be hung under the household department, and they should be responsible. ”

Shaking his head gently, the Emperor said hesitantly: "This won't work, the entry of the military department to make their own weapons, and the entry of the household department to manage farmland and water conservancy, this will not work." In the long run, something has to go wrong. However, Aiqing's suggestion is very good, and it is true that the two parts can be separated, but they still have to be hung under the name of the Ministry of Industry. There are many advantages to this, first, it will be much less resistant to change, second, it will not weaken the position of the Ministry of Industry, and third, it can contain each other. ”

Gao Hongtu didn't understand Emperor Yaoqi's words very well, but Yuan Yingtai, who was kneeling on the ground, understood, and couldn't help but say loudly: "Your Majesty is wise, it is true." ”

Seeing Yuan Yingtai kneeling, Emperor Yaoqi smiled and said, "Okay, get up!" Don't talk about this matter yet, let me think about it. ”

Standing up slowly, Yuan Yingtai said with a serious face: "Your Majesty, the minister has just come from Liaodong, and many things are still not understood and not clear. But there is one thing that the minister understands very well. When the minister was in Liaodong, an ordinary thing could only be done by entrusting the relationship between the upper and lower levels. This is not a private matter of the minister, but a public matter, and the minister felt at that time that it would not work like this. As the governor of a province, it takes so much effort to do some things, so what about the others? ”

Kneeling on the ground again, Yuan Yingtai said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the minister is not unreasonable, nor is he angry with His Majesty, he is really anxious!" It's really time to check and change! I hope that Your Majesty will think of dying the common people, Yuan Yingtai's liver and brain will be smeared, and he will die! ”
