Chapter 427: After the Eunuch Has a Knife
The good emperor and the bad emperor have always been a huge influencing factor in the centralized system in the ancient dynasty of great unification.
The big court, the small place, the big court, the small market, the rich court, the poor people.
In this system, the power of the centralized monarch is not checked, and the good emperor and the bad emperor are particularly important.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucius emphasized self-denial and retribution, and the scope was aimed at the entire aristocratic class.
After that, after the exclusive respect for Confucianism, Confucian theory began to establish the standard of "holy monarch", the rule of three generations, the wide opening of the way, benevolence, righteousness and love for the people, the humble acceptance, the change of mistakes, etc., all of which are known as the necessary conduct of the holy monarch.
Confucianism has made many definitions in the hope that there will be no bad emperors, and there will be no arrogant and lascivious kings who harm the people.
This is the limitation of Confucianism's thinking, they know that there is a problem with the centralization of monarchy, but they never think of changing the system.
Because scholars are also beneficiaries of this system, they are more likely to think that the rest of the group cannot be allowed to share power.
Therefore, the tradition of the great court has been well preserved, and if this premise is lost, both courtiers and commoners will be at a loss.
It's just that after Zhu Yuanzhang re-centralized power, the Ming Dynasty was not like the Tang and Song dynasties.
The scholars of the Ming Dynasty can ask the emperor, but they can't stop the emperor, and in the nearly three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, the ministers who appeared counted on one hand. This kind of minister really can't be regarded as a minister who can usurp the country.
Moreover, scholars and doctors cannot guarantee that they will not be corrupted, and the appearance of scum is the norm, and it is often a group of people who accompany the emperor to corrupt the country and society.
After Jiao Fang's reversal, more officials also began to focus on this shortcut to the south.
The worries of the old ministers became a stark reality on the third day of the deposit of the tariff silver.
Zhu Houzhao not only had to repair the Xuanming Palace, but also to expand the leopard room.
The leopard house is not Zhu Houzhao's first creation, it is originally a place for the royal family to raise tigers and leopards and other fierce beasts for fun, Zhu Houzhao is based on the original site, and then expanded.
Many brazen officials have seconded and praised them, and some people have begun to offer treasures!
Both the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household were unwilling to comply, Zeng Jian directly requested his resignation, and Zhu Houzhao readily approved it and replaced him with a more obedient Tu Xun.
Zeng Jian simply said goodbye to his hometown, he is 73 years old, after four dynasties, he also feels a little disheartened at the moment.
A young imperial official couldn't stand it, so he wrote a letter asking to keep Liu Jian, Xie Qian and Zeng Jian.
Liu Jin was learning at this moment that he was directly asking for an order to dismiss Han Wen and punish him with a cane, and he asked to retain Liu Jian and Xie Qian's Lu Chong and Liu He.
For a moment, there was a chill in the face. The East and West Factories also rode around, searching everywhere for evidence of the ministers' privacy crimes.
The aftermath of the coup d'Γ©tat in the DPRK and China also began to shake the entire Beijing Division, and the small people in the market became panicked.
Diao Gaohan witnessed the great changes in the Ming Dynasty in this "terrifying" atmosphere, and he felt funny and strange in his heart.
This also led him to think more deeply, he knew the division of power in the three courts of the Eastern Qin Dynasty, and he had also read through the "Chinese Constitution".
He felt that if he couldn't make a constitution, he wouldn't be able to guarantee that such a faint monarch would appear in Eastern Qin, and the country would definitely be in a mess at that time.
Fortunately, Dongqin has already announced the constitution, and if it is built for more than ten years, everything will be realized step by step in accordance with the requirements of the constitution.
β¦β¦
"Director Diao, someone asks to see you!"
The night before departure, Diao Gaohan was working on the commercial market plan of Zhenhai Port, when his subordinates suddenly came.
He put down the plan, straightened his clothes, and said, "Let people in!" β
The person who came was Hanwen, the left waiter of the household department, and as soon as he met, he arched his hand and said: "Foreign envoy Diao, may I ask Tianjin at this moment, where are your many sea ships?" β
"There are five ships, and I ask what is going on?"
Han Wen asked again: "Then the Tianjin Customs, will it hinder your ship?" β
"Heh, we have more than 100 soldiers there, and if the group of eunuchs at Tianjin Customs dare to stop them, that is a violation of the treaty between the two countries, and we can shoot back!"
There was a hint of joy on Han Wen's face, and he arched his hand and said, "There is something I want you to help with!" β
Diao Gaohan replied: "But it doesn't hurt to say it! β
Han Wen let out a long sigh and said, "Can the foreign envoy help, send a few people to the south by sea boat, Zhejiang and Fujian?" β
"This ...... Is it for your friends and relatives? β
"Definitely!" Han Wen said in a low voice: "A few courtiers who have told the old man, and some officials who have resigned. β
Diao Gaohan was stunned for a moment: "They can also take the land route, why do they take a sea boat?" β
"It's really unspeakable, and I hope that foreign envoys will help you a thing or two!" Han Wen said with a deep sigh again.
"It's not a violation of discipline! It's just that...... It's out of the way, right? If it affects the diplomatic relations between the two countries? "Diao Gaohan has some reasons.
"The foreign envoy can rest assured, this move is also a last resort, and I know that Dongqin is the most trustworthy and trustworthy, so I came to find the foreign envoy. I hope that the foreign envoy can lend a helping hand and help one or two. β
Diao Gaohan pondered for a moment and said: "In this way, you make a contract, and you write that you want to sell a batch of goods to the south, and specially enter into a charter business, and then the owner of the cargo will accompany you!" In this way, we are doing business normally and nothing else is involved! β
Han Wen's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "Just according to what the foreign envoy said!" On behalf of all the ministers, I thank the foreign envoys! β
"You're welcome, but if anything happens, I can't guarantee it, after all, this can only be regarded as a business deal!"
"I know, the foreign envoy can rest assured, he will never let Dongqin get into trouble!"
After a few more words, Han Wen hurriedly retired.
Although Diao Gaohan does not know the truth, he can guess that it is related to the previous coup.
He still has respect for these ministers in his heart, and feels that they are admonishing the faint king and fighting the traitorous ministers.
Now that they are losing, they can reach out to help, which can be regarded as helping the good people, so as not to make the good people feel too cold.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
And the reason why the ministers were so frightened was that a message came back to Jingshi.
Wang Yue and Fan Heng, who were sent to the army, were killed on the way, and Xu Zhi escaped by chance, but broke his arm.
Everyone knows that this was done by Liu Jin and others, but they can only keep admonishing them.
Historically, due to this incident, Xie Qian, Liu Jian and others had to leave until March of the second year of Zhengde.
After they learned the bad news this time, they didn't care about grieving for Wang Yue, and they began to worry about the trip.
Many of them were originally old men, and they could have half their lives if they were far away, and if there were any more twists and turns, I was afraid that they would have to return to their hometowns.
In the end, Wang Heng made a decision and asked them to go to Tianjin to take a sea boat to the south, and as long as they got on the boat, the eunuchs couldn't help them.
This matter was so reluctantly settled, although many courtiers did not like the Yellow, but at the moment, only the Yellowish sea route was the safest.
Political fighting is played to the point of assassination, which is unimaginable to civilian officials, who advocate that people should be brought down and that such a thing as assassination will never be carried out.
If you want to kill people, civil officials also come from the bright side, so that people can be convinced.
Because anyone can do the assassination, if the court struggle is solved by assassination, then the day when you can't keep it, you will also be accountable.
And today's power is in hand, and there are also days when it became yesterday's yellow flower, when he was in power, he was so vicious and arrogant, and after losing power, it was difficult to escape the enemy's counterattack.
But Liu Jin doesn't seem to be in this point, there are men in the East Factory and the West Factory who can work hard, even if he defeats Wang Yue, he will put him to death.
There is naturally past hatred behind this, but looking through the history books of the Ming Dynasty, only Liu Jin and Wei Zhongxian have used such dirty methods with bad rules.
However, the effect was surprisingly good, and after the civil officials saw such a method, the number of impeachment remonstrances dropped sharply, and the imperial officials were not so rampant.
Liu Jin's heart was ruthless, and the civil officials were caught off guard, and when the eunuch also showed his knife, the civil officials, who respected the rules a little more, chose to take a step back before making plans.
