Chapter 331: Farewell to the Emperor
When I arrived at the Qinzheng Palace, I saw the Emperor of the Apocalypse sitting upright, and it seemed that he had been looking forward to Zhang Jingyi's coming.
After seeing Zhang Jingyi, the face of the Emperor of the Apocalypse softened.
Zhang Jingyi stepped forward and saluted, before saying, "Your Majesty summoned the ministers, I don't know what's going on?" ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse said: "I am deliberating, you are listening." ”
Zhang Jing nodded.
Huang Liji immediately expressed his worries: "Your Majesty, now not only in the capital, but also in the south of the Yangtze River, there are more and more people who defect to Guide, which shows that Guide has become a holy place in the hearts of many people." The minister heard that there are now special people in the capital, who have made an appointment to go to Guide, hundreds of people gathered together, and then set off and settled after arriving in Guide. King Xin is in Guide, and he has also settled a large number of scholars, and this Guide Mansion is now a completely different scene. ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse said with a cold face: "So what? ”
Huang Liji said: "There are some things that the minister should not have said, but now, he is not unhappy." ”
After sighing, Huang Liji had no choice but to say: "The so-called one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world." If this continues, the government of Guide has made outstanding achievements, and many sages have gathered, and the people have called it the great rule of Guide. Over the years, disasters in the world have been frequent, rogues have risen everywhere, and Liaodong has continued to conquer, and the worries in the hearts of the people of the world can be imagined. Now His Majesty's sudden tax hike has caused many people to worry. And on the side of the Guide Mansion, I heard that the measures taken are to benefit the people, the so-called wealth of the people is the wealth of the country, His Royal Highness the King of Letters, and even wrote a special book on the governance of the people, I don't know if Your Majesty has seen it? Those who govern the people, one says: diligence, two says: benevolence, and three says ......"
The Emperor of the Apocalypse waved his hand and said, "Pick up the important ones." ”
So Huang Liji said: "King Xin is returning to Germany, and every move, from heavy education, to light levy, to cultivating soldiers, corporal Lixian, etc., has won the hearts of the people. When the minister said this, he did not mean that His Majesty might as well believe in Wang Xianming, but that he was afraid that in the long run, people's minds would change...... So...... At the moment, the minister has two strategies. ”
Although Huang Liji's words were already very cautious, for fear of angering the Emperor of the Apocalypse, in fact, this time he was really worried, if he continued like this, the people's hearts would be lost, but how could he get it?
Emperor Tianqi Fu case, in fact, he is an understanding person, Huang Li is extremely timid and cautious, under normal circumstances, although he is the first assistant scholar of the cabinet, he rarely has such a clear banner, unless he ...... Huang Liji really felt the danger.
So the Emperor of the Apocalypse softened his attitude and said, "The Qing family is okay to say. ”
Huang Liji said: "First, immediately recall the letter Wang ......"
Speaking of this, he glanced left and right, and the people here were only Emperor of the Apocalypse, Wei Zhongxian, Sun Chengzong, and Zhang Jingyi.
In Huang Liji's mind, these people, although Sun Chengzong may not be in harmony with him, but at least one point, Sun Chengzong is a gentleman and will not speak ill of him behind his back, so he became bold: "After being summoned to the capital, immediately ban King Xin, and not let him go out of the palace for half a step." ”
When the Emperor of the Apocalypse heard this, he had no expression on his face, but said, "What about this strategy?" ”
"The next policy is that the imperial court will follow the example of the Guide Mansion, and it will have to light the people, reduce taxes, and benefit the people, if not...... Fear ......"
Before Huang Liji could finish his next words, the Emperor of the Apocalypse said, "Let me return to the Defu?" After reducing taxes, what do you eat and what will you do in Liaodong? If the imperial court has no tax source, what will it be like? ”
Facing the rebuke of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, Huang Liji said: "Compared with taxes, people's hearts are the most important, if everyone admires His Royal Highness King Xin, Your Majesty think about it, what a disaster it will be." ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse snorted coldly, his eyes turned, but he looked at Sun Chengzong and said, "What does Master Sun think?" ”
Sun Chengzong sighed: "I knew that this was the case, and I really shouldn't have let King Xin become a vassal...... It's just that these two strategies have drawbacks, and the minister thinks that the court should first stabilize and wait and see. ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse was irritable, so he asked Wei Zhongxian again: "What about Wei Qing's family?" ”
Wei Zhongxian said coldly: "These people who defected to King Xin are all thieves, they are obviously supporting King Xin, but in fact they are venting their dissatisfaction with Your Majesty. The slave maid thought that the factory guards should take down all of them, and kill the people who were the leaders. ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse looked at Zhang Jing and said, "Zhang Qing, come and talk about it." ”
He was noncommittal about what others said, and finally asked Zhang Jingyi, presumably because he didn't approve of these strategies.
Zhang Jing thought for a while, and then said: "The minister only has one sentence, the monarchs and ministers here today are all pillars of the country, so what is discussed today is confidential, so the minister will speak freely, dare to ask Your Majesty, Your Majesty thinks that the practice of Guide Mansion is right or wrong?" ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse frowned and said, "I just think ...... These initiatives are unrealistic. ”
"That's it." Zhang Jing said: "Since Your Majesty thinks it is wrong, then what is correct?" ”
This stopped everyone.
So Zhang Jingyi continued: "The problem now is that the people of the world all say that the Guide Mansion has implemented benevolent government, and they all criticize the government. Why is this so? In fact, the minister doesn't know what people's hearts are, and this person doesn't value people's hearts, but only results! Because people's hearts have always been fluctuating, those who scold Your Majesty today may praise Your Majesty tomorrow, and those who praise Your Majesty today may hate Your Majesty very much tomorrow. If you only look at the people's hearts for a while, then the court doesn't have to do anything. At present, this Guide Mansion is in the limelight, what is it like, whether it is as good as the reader said, and whether it is as the people of the capital imagined, it is the best place. In fact, it's very simple, just go and see it, if you don't look at it, what's the use of just relying on hearsay? ”
"Huang Gong said that the imperial court can follow the example of the Guide Mansion, in fact, Huang Gong's original intention, the minister knows. It's just that Huang Gong believed the rumors and thought that Guide Mansion might really become the first good place! If this is the case, the minister thinks that the court must of course learn. Isn't it true that your Majesty or any of you here today does not want the world to be ruled greatly? But the question is whether it is good or not, and it is not appropriate for the court to change course based on human words alone. So...... Why don't Your Majesty summon hundreds of officials and go to Guide Mansion to have a look, this is ...... Just know everything. If it is really good, the minister also suggests that His Majesty follow suit, but if it is not good, it can also be seen and heard. ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse was surprised and said, "I went to Guide Mansion? ”
"No." Wei Zhongxian immediately said: "The slave maid feels that it is very unsafe for His Majesty to go to Guide Mansion, and His Royal Highness the King of Naxin ...... at the beginning."
That's right, King Shin had a black history before.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse looked at Huang Liji and Sun Chengzong and said, "What do the two Qing families think?" ”
Huang Liji frowned, of course he felt that this matter was ...... It's a bit ridiculous, but if you think about it carefully, if the imperial court really wants to change the national policy and don't go to see it in person, how can Your Majesty be convinced?
And...... The officials should not have much resistance to this.
Huang Liji even believes that there are many people who are afraid that there are hundreds of officials in the court, and they are happy to see it come to fruition, and hope that His Majesty will return to virtue and follow King Xin to 'learn'.
Sun Chengzong said: "Your Majesty, Henan is full of rogues, but I am afraid of ......"
The Emperor of the Apocalypse said nonchalantly: "In this report, doesn't it say that the Guide Mansion has already broken the thief seven times, and the rogues have already fled?" ”
Saying that, the Emperor of the Apocalypse looked at Zhang Jingyi: "What Zhang Qing said is not unreasonable, if you don't take a look, how can you know if it's good or not?" In that case, then I'll take a look and ...... tomorrow."
Speaking of this, the Emperor of the Apocalypse glanced at Huang Liji, and then said: "I will not participate, so Huang Gong will read this will and see the attitude of the hundred officials." ”
It's definitely a big deal.
Because this is not a private visit on weekdays, but a parade of the Eight Classics, then the emperor not only has to take a hundred officials, but also a large number of military horses and honor guards to set off.
Although Guide Mansion is not far from the capital, and it is a flat river, it consumes a lot of manpower and material resources.
All dynasties and dynasties were very disgusted with this kind of thing, thinking that the emperor inspected the world and wasted a lot of people's fat and ointment, which brought a huge burden to the people.
Therefore, the Emperor of the Apocalypse still needs to let people know the hundred officials, and first observe the movements of the hundred officials.
Still, it's clear...... The Emperor of the Apocalypse was unwarranted.
The next day, the attitude of the officials was very clear, and they all agreed, and some even said excitedly: "Your Majesty has this heart, which is a blessing for the country." ”
It's obvious...... Some people believe that this is a harbinger of the emperor's experience to learn from the Guide Mansion, and the governance measures of the Guide Mansion are said to be based on benevolent government, and the so-called benevolence and righteousness are spread far and wide, and the world returns to the heart.
It would be better if the court did the same.
Although several ministers expressed their opposition, this opposition soon disappeared into the crowd.
Can't set off the wind and waves.
So the emperor issued an order to return to the German Mansion, ordered hundreds of officials to accompany him, and arranged the personnel who stayed behind.
In addition, he ordered the warrior battalion, Donglin Military Academy, and more than 10,000 factory guards to accompany him.
All of a sudden, the capital was lively.
When the Emperor of the Apocalypse chose an auspicious day to set off, he found that outside the Qihua Gate, countless scholars had been waiting for a long time.
When the Emperor of the Apocalypse's car arrived at Qihuamen, he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this scene.
He summoned Zhang Jingyi and asked, "Zhang Qing, these people ...... Why are you here, isn't it a farewell to me? ”
Zhang Jingyi didn't expect it...... He is one of the chaperone ministers appointed by the patrol, and his main responsibilities are ...... It's fucking driving for the Emperor of the Apocalypse.
Of course...... Theoretically speaking, the emperor's duty to patrol and drive is very important, and only his henchmen are qualified.
Because the so-called driving is not really to catch a car, there is a special driver for driving a car, and Zhang Jingyi is actually equivalent to accompanying the driver to protect the emperor's safety at any time.
But this driving job is really bad to hear.
I, Zhang Jingyi, also want to save face, okay?
