Two days later, the courtiers, who had been silent for a long time, finally took action, and the snowflakes of impeachment flew into the inner court in bundles and placed them on Zhu Jun's Zhu approval case. \\\\

On the square at the main entrance of the palace, hundreds of talents and students knelt together, kowtowing to the towering palace wall every other time of incense, and said loudly: "Please take state affairs first, be in the middle of the palace, establish the prince, and settle the world." ”

A vigorous struggle for the country was launched, and the curtain officially began.

Every morning, the long street of Xindu can be resounded with the latest message from the newsboy: "Sell newspapers!" Sell newspapers! Lord Wang Daoming, the servant of the Criminal Department, spoke up for justice this morning, and has been demoted to a warden by the Holy Lord........."

"The latest news, the thirteen adults of the Imperial History Dao jointly protect the famous Lord Wang Dao, and they have a dispute with the Holy Lord in the palace, and all the thirteen people have cut their officials to the people and will never be hired."

"It's terrible, the first assistant of the cabinet, the first assistant university scholar Qianguo Gongmu Grandpa Mu, the university scholar Yang Side, and the university scholar Zhou Mubai jointly sealed the royal approval, and implored the emperor to retract the will to denigrate the lords."

In the administrative structure of the Ming Dynasty, the ministers submitted the chapter to the cabinet, and the cabinet scholars were responsible for sorting out and issuing orders, but in the event of natural disasters, the appointment and dismissal of senior officials and major national policy issues, the cabinet must submit the chapter to the emperor, and then return it to the cabinet after the emperor Zhu approved it by the cabinet for implementation, if the cabinet feels that the emperor's order is unreasonable, it has the right to seal and return Zhu to the cabinet and refuse to implement it. Of course, under normal circumstances, the cabinet will not be closed and approved by the imperial authorities, and will only be used when it is forced to do so.

Things are getting more and more stiff, Zhu Jun's life is not easy, what he didn't expect is that all the ministers are standing on the opposite side of him, and even the royal courtiers of Myanmar began to write to ask for the establishment of the Central Palace, headed by the right of Burma to participate in politics Alun, since the prison of the country, Zhu Jun's ruling team has a total of two sets. One is the courtier team, headed by the cabinet scholars, and the Han official system is the head. The other is the courtier team, which is headed by the left and right members of the Burmese state. The Han official system was mainly in charge of the army, diplomacy, state policy, and control of the taxation and order of the entire Haidu City. The Burmese official system is mainly responsible for the affairs of Burma, but does not dominate the army, diplomacy, national policy, etc., and is a kind of vassal of the Han official system.

"The prince is the foundation of the country. His Majesty has no children under his knees, which may make the subjects of the Celestial Empire uneasy, and the subordinates have no intention of talking about the state affairs of the Celestial Empire, but His Majesty alone not only maintains the survival of the Celestial Empire, but also maintains the stability of the Burmese country

Zhu Jun angrily threw Aaron's recital on the table. In the past few days, his anger has been very heavy, and a good emperor has actually forced people to do this, and Zhu Jun is going to turn his face.

"Your Majesty. Cabinet University Scholar Zhou Mubai met with him. Xiao Guizi entered the imperial study and cautiously prayed.

"Zhou Mubai?" Zhu Jun patted the table: "He still has the face to see me?" Let him. ”

"Your Majesty. Scholar Zhou said that he had come up with a foolproof plan for the emperor. Therefore, I have come to see you. Xiao Guizi said.

Zhu Jun waved his hand. Impatiently, he said, "Let him in." I'd like to see what this guy has to say. This is a grass that sways from side to side. ”

A moment later. Zhou Mubai has entered the palace. Just met Zhu Jun. He fell to the ground with tears in his eyes. He said, "Long live my emperor." Wechen is here to ask for sin. ”

Zhu Jun sneered. glanced at Zhou Mubai with a frosty face: "Scholar Zhou is very beautiful now." He is really a righteous and resolute minister. ”

Zhou Mubai sneered: "The emperor should not make fun of Weichen." In fact, at that time, Weichen was also difficult to ride a tiger. In desperation, he could only fight with the courtiers. Please also ask the emperor to be considerate of the hardships of the ministers. ”

Zhou Mubai narrowed his eyes and continued: "Lizhong Palace and the birth of the prince are the foundation of the country, and Weichen does not dare to favor the emperor. Otherwise, there will be no place for Weichen in the court of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Zhou Mubai is not wrong, with his guts, there is really no reason to stand on Zhu Jun's side, offending the emperor is at most a court staff to dismiss the official, but if he stands on the wrong side on the issue of fighting for the country, it will be scolded by thousands of people, and he will be poked in the back, not to mention, when the courtiers vent their anger on him Zhou Mubai, every day snowflakes like a piece to impeach you, no matter how thick-skinned you are, you can only resign and return to the fate of the countryside. Zhou Mubai is a smart person. I don't know how powerful this is. So he resolutely stood on the side of the courtiers.

Zhu Jun didn't forgive him, grandma's. Is the emperor so easy to bully? You have curried favor with the courtiers and now you want to ask for my forgiveness, how can there be such a cheap thing in this world?

Zhu Jun squinted and lay on the golden chair and ignored him.

"Your Majesty, the ministers have thought about it and finally have a way to solve the dilemma in front of them."

"I'm not interested in listening, I'm originally a lonely person, and if the courtiers want to make trouble, I'll go with you." Zhu Jun bit the word "you" very hard.

"Wechen is dead, but I still want to ask Your Majesty to listen carefully to Wechen's method, and then Your Majesty will reward and punish, and Wechen is willing to pay tribute."

Still wanting to be rewarded, Zhu Jun snorted coldly.

"Your Majesty, no matter what, the courtiers are all kind, although Your Majesty is in the prime of life, but there is no prince in the country, and it makes sense for the officials to be panicked. The emperor is not wrong in this matter, and the courtiers are not wrong, the emperor does not want the courtiers to interfere in his private affairs, and the courtiers are not malicious. Zhou Mubai was embarrassed to talk, this remark actually reached Zhu Jun's heart, in fact, Zhu Jun also understood this truth, but it was a matter of trouble, both sides had no steps to go down, and Zhu Jun was also very distressed.

"Since both sides are not at fault, Weichen thinks that the emperor should reinstate those reprimanded ministers and officials, and issue an edict to punish himself, so that he can appear that the emperor's grace is vast, and His Majesty is broad-minded, and he is a wise monarch of the world."

It's okay at the beginning, but when Zhu Jun heard the three words of guilt, his face changed, and he was already clenching the inkstone on the table in his hand, eager to smash this wall grass to death.

It turned out that this guy was here to persuade himself to regress, Zhu Jun thought angrily.

"The sage has clouds, the king is the minister, the father is the son, and the husband is the wife, this is the right way of heaven and reason. That being the case, although the courtiers are speechless, or nonsense, although their words and deeds should be punished, but their hearts are towards the emperor, the emperor is not only the co-lord of the world, but also the father of the subjects, the courtiers are at fault, and the monarch should follow the good steps to induce them to start the right path. If the emperor is at fault, of course, he should also issue an edict to punish himself, in order to show that the power of heaven is mighty, and His Majesty tolerates the heart of the United States. ”

Well, this sentence is comfortable to hear, Zhu Jun secretly let go of the hand holding the inkstone, and his face softened a little.

"Weichen thinks that the emperor's guilt and edict have two benefits." Zhou Mubai stretched out two fingers slowly, and said calmly: "First: Since the emperor has issued an edict to sin himself, the courtiers are naturally not good to entangle, and since then, the emperor has blocked the quiet mouth of the people in the world, and the emperor is still the male lord who is willing to risk arrows and stones, and is willing to protect the society with the soldiers." Second: If this edict is issued, the emperor's open-mindedness will be known to passers-by, and there are many Han people in this Nanyang, and they will definitely be willing to move their families to vote, and the emperor will have an additional anti-Qing help. With such fame and fortune, what else does Your Majesty have to worry about? ”

Zhou Mubai said to the point, Zhu Jun has always had a headache or the reputation of the past, although the imperial court has promulgated a policy to attract Han people to vote in various parts of Nanyang, but the effect is not significant, if it is really as Zhou Mubai said, you might as well give it a try.

Zhou Mubai saw that Zhu Jun's heart was moved, and he added: "Your Majesty, there are not many emperors in history who have committed crimes, they are Dayu, Shang Tang, King Zhou Cheng, Qin Mugong, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Tang Dezong, and Song Huizong. Except for Song Huizong, the rest of these seven people are the heroes of the world, and if the emperor imitates the sages and saints, he will definitely be able to achieve miraculous results. ”

Dayu is one of the three emperors and five emperors, and his reputation is outstanding. Shang Tang was the pioneer of the Shang Dynasty, a figure who crusaded against Xia Wei and turned the world into a king. King Cheng is also the king of benevolence. Qin Mu Hanwu is the lord of the expansion of the territory, although Tang Dezong is not famous, he ascended the throne not long after, he faced several knots to make a rebellion, Dezong fled in a hurry, was chased by the rebels thousands of miles away, Dezong issued an edict, the edict is sincere and moving, very inspiring, after promulgation, the people's heart and the army are greatly inspired, and the situation has changed greatly. Soon, the unrest subsided.

Zhu Jun secretly thought that except for Song Huizong, the people who made the edict were the best among the emperors, although the name was guilty, it was tantamount to creating an image of a good emperor who was good at admitting mistakes and opening up his speech, and this transaction was worth it.

"If I issue an edict of guilt, the court is still entangled in the question of the country's capital? What can Zhou Aiqing do? Zhu Jun relieved the mustard in his heart, although Zhou Mubai was a little shameless, but the ideas were endless, Zhu Jun planned to forgive him this time.

"The courtiers only hope that Your Majesty can give birth to the prince as soon as possible, so that I can have a successor to the Ming Dynasty. Zhou Mubai's eyes flashed, and he suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the opportunity to expand the territory has come." ”

"Oh? What does the expansion of territory have to do with the establishment of concubines? ”

Zhou Mubai said: "Wechen heard that the king of Siam has a beautiful girl, and the Ming Dynasty is the upper country of Siam, so the emperor may wish to issue an edict to let the king of Siam present the princess to Burma and make her a side concubine." ”

Zhu Jun said: "Now that the Ming Dynasty is weak, although the Siam Kingdom nominally serves the Ming Dynasty as the upper country, I am afraid that the matter of offering the princess will not be accepted." ”

Siam is today's Thailand, bordering Burma, Hongwu sent envoys to pay tribute in three years, and since then it has been a subject of the Ming Dynasty. Since Yongli fled into Burma, Siam's relationship with the Ming Dynasty gradually began to leave, neither willing to take the initiative to break away from the Ming Dynasty's vassal relationship, but also unwilling to offend the Manchu Qing, Zhu Jun let the Siamese princess enter Burma, I am afraid that ninety percent will be rejected.

"What the minister wants is that Siam does not agree to this matter, Siam has a land of thousands of miles, millions of people, and it is the land of grand hegemony, if Siam sends the princess as His Majesty's concubine, then from now on, Siam is still my Ming Dynasty's subject country. If they don't allow it, they will deceive us that the Celestial Empire is weak, and Your Majesty should raise an army to warn the countries of the South Seas. ”
