Gao Hongtu, the first assistant of the cabinet, Hua Yuncheng, Liu Wanchun, and Ruan Dayue, all stood in front of Zhu Youzhen in round-necked regular clothes.

Zhu Youzhen stepped forward with a calm face, looked at the four officials who were much older than himself, and no longer mistakenly thought that they were really courtiers who could command at will, even if they were inconsistent, he could kill them at will and deprive them of their right to life.

But since the last time he was coerced by the important ministers of the six cabinets, Zhu Youzhen began to realize that even if he obeys his own loyalty, his courtiers will have their own independent thoughts, and people obey themselves and be loyal to themselves, not only because their interests and needs are the same, but also because their political opinions do not conflict with their own beliefs and the beliefs of the monarch and ministers, once their ideas and concepts conflict, they will still oppose themselves.

After all, people are not ordinary tools, managers are not management tools after all, people have their own thoughts and consciousness, and what the emperor manages is the elite group of the entire Ming Dynasty, these people are more independent than the common people.

Zhu Youzhen didn't know when he became more mature than before.

At this time, there was no joy or anger on his face, less of the enthusiasm and aggressiveness of the young emperor, and more of the old and unpredictable of the older emperor.

Zhu Youzhen didn't dare to despise these officials in front of him who seemed to have no emotional changes on their faces, they looked dull, but they could become fierce beasts that could deter their masters at any time, and the cloudy eyes covered by heavy wrinkles could not see the slightest look that could be read.

As the emperor, Zhu Youzhen didn't bother to talk nonsense, although his tone was more polite, he would no longer be as enthusiastic as before: "Now you also know that the Jiannu in the north has a move to go south again, plus Zhang Xianzhong is making trouble in the southwest again, and the Ming Dynasty has reached the brink of survival again, and I have to balance the forces of all parties in order to stabilize the interior;

But the power of the government is still in the hands of the four of you, you have just taken charge of the power of the government, I don't hope that you can do much in a short period of time, but you must stabilize the situation, money, food and disaster relief and other affairs must be taken to heart, follow the national policy of the previous first assistant, can not be easily changed, and can not be easily used by others, no matter how some scheming people steal power and mess with the government, you must stabilize the situation for me, understand? ”

As soon as Zhu Youzhen said this, the four officials present all nodded and explained.

They have their own industries in coastal Songjiang Mansion, Ningbo Mansion and other places, and they are the new commercial capitalists of the Ming Dynasty, they do not oppose Zhu Youzhen's national politics, so they can also follow Zhu Youzhen's national politics, although Gao Hongtu among them still does not want to see the eunuchs take power and divide the power of their cabinet civil officials.

In this way, the situation of the DPRK stabilized, and Liu Wanchun, the secretary of the household department, insisted on personally inquiring about the expenses and inputs of the household department, and never refused Ruan Dayue's request for the military department.

And Hua Yuncheng did not easily change the order of official promotion, and still stuck to the old ways, no matter how the imperial history of the Imperial Procuratorate and the officials of the Six Departments were impeached, they all ignored it.

Gao Hongtu also directly set the tone for the six cabinet ministries and local governments at all levels, and Chongzhen's 20 years of national policy was to seek stability and concentrate all his forces to prepare for the upcoming national war.

In this way, Huo Da, Chen Shiding, Ouyang Da and others who tried to control the government did not have any opportunity to speculate for their own political interests.

The military department has become Ma Shiying's party members since Ma Shiying's time, and now after Ruan Dayue directly took over, Ye Junzhen, the right attendant of the military department, was directly hollowed out, and he could not make any small moves in the transportation of money and food for half soldiers.

And Huo Da is not having a good time in the household department, almost no expenditure plan will be beaten back by Liu Wanchun, Liu Wanchun will not let him get involved in the central bank of Daming, and the entire financial power of Daming is still in the hands of Liu Wanchun.

Chen Shiding could only drink tea and chat in the ministry, because Hua Yuncheng, the secretary of the ministry, directly suspended the plan and Jingcha on the grounds that the war was about to be close to the war, and blatantly arranged his students to the position of the Wenxuan Shilang of the ministry, which made the ministry's ministry also become Hua Yuncheng's independent kingdom, and others couldn't splash water into the fire and couldn't burn it.

Zhu Youzhen basically didn't bother to watch the impeachment of these four officials, and let Chen Yuanyuan sort them out and put them in the inner treasury.

The approval of the red was handed over to the new celebrant supervisor Bingbi Lu Jiude, Wang Chengen succeeded the celebrant and the seal was still in charge of the East Factory, and the ceremonial supervisor Bingbi Han Shoujing (whose real name was Han Zan, Zhou Zhu was renamed after moving south from the procuratorate) was still in charge of the affairs of the inner court.

However, Lu Jiude has basically passed almost all the resolutions of the six cabinet ministries, which is naturally Zhu Youzhen's intention.

He was too lazy to make waves in the court now, and the first assistant of the cabinet, Gao Hongtu, was only preparing for the future salt tax reform, and did not interfere in the affairs of the ministries, so that the six ministries became an independent kingdom of the ministries.

The power of the six Shangshu reached an unprecedented level, which made Guan Shaoning and other officials who tried to steal the government angry.

"I thought that if I entered the six ministries of the cabinet, if I could plan properly, I would be able to control the power of the government step by step as soon as possible, but I didn't expect that Ruan Dayue, Hua Yuncheng, and Liu Wanchun all formed a party and ran a private business, not to mention nepotism, but also seized the power, and if it goes on like this, the government will always be controlled in their hands!"

As soon as Chen Shiding said this, Guan Shaoning had to sigh:

"Then what can I do, I said a long time ago that you should not be in a hurry, and first establish a good relationship with them;

But it's good for you, as soon as you came, you were anxious to seize power, and now these three people are obviously wary of you, but I'm afraid that we have been instructed by His Majesty, the only thing we can do is to wait, it's really not good, just let the Duan Literature Society and them exert their strength, and use any means, let these people die, see if they dare to be so arrogant! ”

……

"What did they really say, they still want to use assassination methods, they are really bold, from now on, continue to expand the power of the East Factory, I asked Han Shoujing to allocate special funds from my internal funds for the expansion of the East Factory! These Duanwen Society, what white-clothed sects and these courtiers with ulterior motives have to keep an eye on! ”

After Zhu Youzhen said, Wang Chengen took the order and left.

And Zhu Youzhen rushed to the main camp of the Second Army of the Guards Army in Gyeonggi, Nanjing, where the battle was about to begin, and he had to look at his army.

These days in the capital by the civilian press, Zhu Youzhen can be said to be very aggrieved, he hates this feeling, if it is not before the war to intensify the contradictions, he can't wait to directly mobilize the army to kill these disobedient civilian officials first.

But now he doesn't seem to be as decisive as before, Chongzhen has been in the seventeenth year of his life with the mentality of breaking the cauldron and sinking the boat, with the mentality that the big deal is the destruction of the Ming Dynasty, and now he hopes to reduce the intensification of internal contradictions as much as possible before the start of the second war against the Manchus, so as to avoid greater risks.

But Zhu Youzhen is unwilling to compromise so much in his heart, he has been suppressed, he doesn't want to see this group of many civil officials who are not of the same heart as him now, he would rather let Ruan Dayue and others form gangs to boycott other civilian officials.
