Emperor Hongzhi is a good man, and he is in a good mood now.

Should I say it or not, he sees that his son is angry, and these ministers who didn't eat oil and salt in the past are about to become addicted.

Thanks to giving birth to a good son, otherwise how could he be so enjoyable today?

Since he was in a good mood, he didn't say the words that made the atmosphere tense, and stretched out his hand to comfort everyone, "Okay, two Aiqing." I'll let the prince say a few words. Don't say anything more about resignation. Let's go back and talk about the way the court employs people. ”

Zhu Houzhao snorted secretly,

He wasn't joking, if these two people really resigned because of this matter, then he would really go back to send the will of the East Palace.

After watching it for 500 years, you may not be able to do a few serious things, but there are a lot of ways to harm people in your mind, and you will not give up if you are disgusted to death.

But right now, it's really not a big deal.

"Father, it's better to be like this," Zhu Houzhao thought for a while, "First, can Father send an edict?" recorded the conversation between the two adults and their sons in detail today, and proposed that the method of employing people in the imperial court should not be limited to the difference of factions, let alone arbitrarily insert charges against the courtiers who recommended Wang Yue. The second is that the rumors are the rumors, don't impeach the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee indiscriminately, especially the Zhang Chaoyong who impeached Zhou Jing Zhou, what kind of person Zhou Jing is, no one is clear, such impeachment is really unreasonable, but if the official is not guilty of speech, his father will not punish him, but he should be criticized by name in the edict to show warning. Third, the trilateral chief of the system should draw up candidates based on the criterion of being the most competent, regardless of who he is or who he is not. In the final analysis, the people up and down the court are all the people of the emperor. ”

"Hmm." The emperor nodded, "What do Zhou Aiqing and Wu Aiqing think?" ”

Looking at these three articles alone, the two of them couldn't say which one was inappropriate.

Although there is a big gap with what they imagined.

But they have already fought with the crown prince in front of the emperor to this extent today, and the prince has said a righteous reason, which is also good for the country.

In this case, their routine of 'the monarch's father is mediocre and the courtiers are forceful' will not be easy to use.

Because the monarch also has his own reasoning, and it makes sense, but it is different from you, and you must oppose it, what is this called?

This is called disobedience.

It doesn't make sense, the emperor wants to listen to the minister, right?

If it is publicized, there must be people on both sides who support it and people who oppose it.

What Zhu Houzhao wants to do is this, that is, when they 'take out the moral Bible, knock you to the ground with a stick, and say that you can't be wrong anymore', you must explain your reasoning.

You can't leave them speechless, otherwise even if you forcibly issue an edict, you will be immediately defined as a faint king!

In the long run, things will be difficult.

Now it's different,

You are for the country and the people, and I am also for the country and the people, but the angle is different, if you say that I am a faint king, then I will get you. And make a big deal out of you and make your reputation stink.

But with the current result, it is really difficult to satisfy Zhou and Wu.

So the emperor asked them, and they also felt a little sullen in their hearts.

"If Your Majesty insists on sending it like this, Weichen can only receive the decree."

This seems to be convincing. But it is the softness of power, not the softness of reason.

But for Zhu Houzhao, this is enough. Because the goal of "you can't dwell on a whole bunch of people saying I'm wrong" has been achieved.

As for what some people think is wrong, that's another matter. Over the course of a year, there have been a lot of things that have been said to be wrong. But the emperor also has to do it, and he must insist on using authority to suppress it.

"Lord Zhou," the crown prince called him,

"Wechen is here."

"The way of the sage says that gentlemen are harmonious but different. This palace knows that you are a gentleman and a direct minister, but this palace is not a villain either. ”

"His Royal Highness is serious, Weichen doesn't dare." Zhou Jing could only sigh helplessly.

"Today's disagreement between you and me does not mean that you and I are virtuous and unvirtuous. You are for the good of the court, and I am also for the good of the court, which just shows that we are all loyal to our father. Therefore, there are some words just now, and you should not take them to heart. ”

Hongji nodded, well, this son of mine is really powerful, tight and loose, and he can handle it freely.

As soon as Zhou Jing heard the prince's warm words, he didn't dare to take a big head in his words, so he quickly knelt down and saluted, "His Royal Highness's words really make Weichen ashamed!" Weichen also has something wrong today, please forgive your highness! ”

Zhu Houzhao nodded, satisfied with his micro-operation.

For people like Zhou Jing, it is still okay to be a household secretary. Those who are in charge of money bags need such a character.

As for Wu Kuan,

He didn't bother to care if he was wronged or not.

"You have no sin, let alone forgiveness." Zhu Houzhao waved his hand, "You said the harm of choosing Wang Yue, and I said the benefits of choosing Wang Yue." These many things are a mixed bag, and perfect things are always hard to find. In this case, let's take our father's decree as the standard, Lord Zhou and I are both ministers after all, and all authority must still be exercised. ”

This kind of talk is not easy to refute, unless your ten tribes have enmity with you, and you want to destroy them.

Wu Kuan sighed in his heart,

The crown prince is really a good person, and he pulled down his status in a few words in line with the Zhou Jing, which not only raised Lord Zhou, but also raised His Majesty.

Well, now they are all ministers, and as courtiers, they all speak their own truths, and then hand them over to the Holy God for decision, which is precisely the gift of kings and ministers.

This matter has become the pre-monarch's reasoning, and there is a reason for the country and the people. The emperor just chose one to use, but he was not closed to his words and was mediocre.

Of course, it is stressful to be a prince like this.

From this point alone, Wu Kuan admires it.

Echoing carefully, although the prince seemed to have no intention of asking and answering with them, in fact, behind every sentence there was a purpose he wanted to achieve.

Now that the crown prince has said that the authority is in charge of this, Zhou Jing has nothing to say, "In this case, please Your Majesty will make a judgment!" ”

Emperor Hongzhi summoned Xiao Jing over, "Spread the decree to the cabinet, and issue an edict according to the words of the prince." It is imperative to make internal and external officials understand that the imperial court's method of employing people must not be constrained by factional differences, and that the greatest purpose is to select the most suitable candidates for the country. ”

"Yes."

In this case, there was nothing to do, and Zhou Jing and Wu Kuan left.

As soon as the others left, Emperor Hongzhi could no longer suppress his joy, and crossed his waist and couldn't help laughing, "I really never thought that this matter could be done like this?" ”

Done? Probably, but not guaranteed.

Zhu Houzhao thought to himself: Your old man should really thank my son for his thoughtfulness.

In this way, it will not be so difficult to deal with the Wenchen of the Ming Dynasty.

He took out a note from his cuff, "Dad, my son is checking this person." Shaanxi Provincial Imperial History Hu Guimin. ”

The emperor had a slight impression, "Is that Hu Guimin who specifically went up to oppose Wang Yue?" ”

"Not bad." Zhu Houzhao spread out the piece of paper for him, "Li Guang's account book has his name on it, but after Li Guang's death, he spoke fiercely, and even more clearly opposed Wang Yue's appointment as the chief official of the tripartite. This is a villain, and a typical person, and the son has already sent someone to investigate him secretly. If the father allows, the son wants to ask Jinyiwei to handle the case. ”

"What are you going to do, of course there is no reason for me as a father not to support it." The Emperor frowned, "But what do you mean by saying he's a typical?" ”

It is a typical example of opposing Wang Yue in order to clear up the relationship with Li Guang. It can be shown that there are people in the DPRK who abandon the interests of the court for their own political interests. Now the edict only said that the standard of 'the most competent' was selected, and it was not said that it must be Wang Yue. A few words will not necessarily make that group of adults let go of their opinions, if it doesn't work out, then Hu Guimin's case will be dealt with in a big way. Tell them that they are not supporting Wang Yue or being with Li Guang, and opposing Wang Yue is more likely to be with Li Guang! ”

Look at the various Shangshu who gave gifts to Li Guang, how they reacted after Hu Guimin's case.

"Of course, if it happens, we just need to follow the law."

That's his style, he likes to keep his hands on things. Stability in everything.

Because he is his own father, it doesn't matter if he says it now, it always gives him more peace of mind.

"Good!" Emperor Hongzhi's eyes flashed. I don't know why, he suddenly has a feeling of going into battle as a father and son soldier, and the boring government in the past is now much more interesting!

But thinking about Hu Guimin's identity carefully, I feel that it is inappropriate, "Will it make people feel that they are on this negligence and are guilty of their words?" ”

Zhu Houzhao's eyes widened, "Father is wronged." Erchen didn't say anything about his negligence. Erchen is talking about him bribing Li Guang! ”
