Chapter 34: It's better to use it as a traitor

Here we go again, here we go again!

These civil officials are always like this, full of benevolence, righteousness and morality for the sake of the people, and they all sound like they want to make Jun Yaoshun good for the emperor, but in essence, they are kidnapping themselves as the emperor with morality in order to achieve their unspeakable selfish desires!

The king does not compete with the people for profit, this people does not refer to ordinary people and ordinary private households, but you officials and gentry, those Jiangnan gentry who want to completely control silk, right?

Zhu Youzhen sneered in his heart.

But Huang Liji is obviously from Hebei, why did he speak for the gentry in Jiangnan? Could it be that he colluded with the Donglin Party?

Thinking of this, Zhu Youzhen showed a suspicious gaze.

Seeing that the emperor was silent, those officials in the palace spoke more energetically, and played in turns, quoting scriptures one by one from the three emperors to the five emperors to describe the actions of the ancient sages, and then talked about the emperor's removal of Wei Zhongxian's eunuch party and the people's happiness was done by the Ming monarch, in a word, the emperor can not compete with the people if he wants to be a Ming monarch.

Zhu Youzhen suddenly felt a little sad, he got rid of Wei Zhongxian, suppressed the Donglin Party, and thought that he had completely controlled the situation in the court, but when it came to interests, none of the Manchu officials stood up to speak for himself as the emperor!

At this moment, Zhu Youzhen suddenly understood why Emperor Wanli, the emperor's grandfather, was reluctant to go to court for forty years, it was because he saw through the shameless faces of these civil officials, and he had no choice but to take them!

However, I am not the emperor's grandfather, I am not afraid of you, and I will not compromise with you!

At this moment, Zhu Youzhen's heart gave birth to a strong fighting spirit!

"Competing with the people? Do you say I'm a faint king? Zhu Youzhen said faintly.

Although the words were plain, they exploded in the hearts of the courtiers in the hall like a muffled thunder, and many people's faces changed greatly.

Huang Liji secretly glanced at the expressionless emperor, and suddenly regretted that he came out and said that.

"Your Majesty atons for your sins, but the ministers don't mean that." Why bother with the imperial history, he hurriedly said, "The ministers are just to Jun Yaoshun, I just hope that Jiangnan weavers can live better." ”

"To Jun Yaoshun?" Zhu Youzhen smiled coldly, "In your eyes, I'm afraid I'm a faint monarch who can be deceived at will!" ”

"Suzhou weaving, from Yongle time, Taizong, Renzong, the previous emperors have sent internal supervisors to Suzhou weaving, is it in your eyes, Taizong, Renzong they are all with the people to compete for profit?" Zhu Youzhen said sharply.

"Don't dare!" A group of people fell to their knees in an uproar.

"Don't dare? I see how dare you! Zhu Youzhen said coldly, "All of them look sanctimonious, and the male thieves and prostitutes with a belly, what the hell do you think I don't know?" It's to deceive the young! ”

These words are too serious, not only why bother, but almost scolded the Manchu officials bloody, and many officials were on pins and needles and panicked.

Huang Liji's face was pale, and he looked at the angry emperor, and suddenly felt a little unrecognizable.

"Your Majesty is angry, presumably no matter how bold they are, they will not dare to bully the king." At this moment, Shi Fenglai, the second assistant who had never had a sense of existence, suddenly stood up.

"They are just a bunch of small imperial histories, they have read too much and read their brains, and when they heard that the life of Suzhou weavers was miserable, they pleaded for the people's lives with a hot brain, and they didn't see how deep the water behind them was. However, the ministers dare to guarantee that no matter how bold they are, they will not dare to bully the king. ”

Shi Fenglai's words were very skillful, and the tense situation between the monarchs and ministers in the court was resolved at once, and the cause of everything was said to be the blind blood of the young imperial history, not to anger the emperor.

If this tense situation continues, the emperor will be furious, and a large number of people will inevitably be dismissed, which will inevitably shock the government and the opposition, and this situation is that Zhu Youzhen does not want to see, Shi Feng saw through Zhu Youzhen's psychology, so he decisively came forward to resolve the tense situation.

Zhu Youzhen's face softened a little, and he said lightly: "Then in the opinion of Shi Ge Lao, what should be done about this matter?" ”

Shi Fenglai said: "Suzhou weaving eunuchs may be bullying the people, and it is also true that Suzhou weavers are having a difficult life, but whether it is all because of the weaving eunuchs is unknown, and the minister suggested that His Majesty send someone to Suzhou to investigate the case." As for the weaving yamen in Suzhou, it is responsible for transporting silk and satin to the palace, not the only one in this dynasty, there are all dynasties, and the hasty abolition is not in line with the system, as long as His Majesty can choose a loyal internal supervisor to manage the weaving yamen, there will be no more competition with the people. ”

With Shi Fenglai's words, a faint smile appeared on Zhu Youzhen's face, and he suddenly found that this second assistant, whom he had always looked down on and thought was soft and undisciplined, was now so cute.

The emperor also needs a caring courtier, even if he is a slanderous minister with no integrity. At this moment, Zhu Youzhen suddenly understood the reason why Li Linfu, Qin Hui, Yan Song, these famous traitors and gluttonous ministers of previous dynasties could mix like fish in water in the court. Is it that the emperor doesn't know that they have a bad character? I'm afraid not, but such a traitor is easy to use!

If it was, if it was in the previous life, there were such traitors in his own court, instead of Zhongzhengying's dynasty, his life would be much better.

It's ridiculous that he was too upright in his last life, and he looked down on those courtiers with bad character, and he actually liked those officials like the Donglin Party who were full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, which was simply regrettable and ridiculous!

"What Shi Aiqing said is very kind!" The more Zhu Youzhen looked at Shi Fenglai, the more cute he felt, and said softly, "Let's do this matter, Paidong Factory and Jinyiwei jointly investigated the bullying and oppression of weavers in Suzhou. In the future, Jiangsu weaving silk will be priced according to the market, and it cannot be purchased at a low price! Zhu Youzhen said lightly.

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Shi Fenglai hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"As for you people," Zhu Youzhen looked at why he bothered to ask for the others, "For the sake of Shi Ge's face, I don't care whether you sincerely ask for your life for the people, or if you are instructed by others as soon as your head is hot, I will not pursue it." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Why bother asking for the others' faces to be pale, and their emotions are very complicated.

What they did seemed to be for the people to occupy the righteousness, but they could not explain the fact that Taizong Renzong also had Suzhou weaving, if it was said that Suzhou weaving was competing with the people, wouldn't it be that Taizong Renzong was also competing with the people, wouldn't it be that Taizong Renzong was also a faint monarch? If they really want to be involved, just the crime of insulting the former emperor is enough to dismiss them from office and never use them.

"Thank you, Elder Shige." After the dispersal of the dynasty, why bother to ask and others to surround Shi Feng to express their gratitude.

"It's all the same palace as a minister, it's just a trivial matter." Shi Fenglai waved his hand, looking unconcerned.

At this court meeting, he took the opportunity to come out, won the favor of the emperor, and gained a lot of gratitude from the imperial history, which was simply a full harvest.

Huang Liji stopped slightly, glanced at Shi Fenglai deeply, and his heart was full of vigilance.
