Chapter 108: Liu Jian's Historical Opportunity (4,000 Words Chapter!) Ask for a commuter pass! )
Emperor Jiajing is this kind of play, that is, to achieve my goal but not stick to the pan, you do all the things, do a good job, infatuate you to back, do not do well......
If you don't do it, it means that you are worthless, and if you are worthless, guess how long you can live?
Zhu Houzhao didn't want to play like this, this is actually not a good way, it will be very comfortable to play the emperor in this way, and it is not a problem to play with the entire court, but after a long time, the political atmosphere will be extremely inferior, and then it will be the loach of the Manchu Dynasty.
However, the trick is a dead person, a person is alive, and Yang Ting and Zhu Houzhao are naturally doing everything possible to protect them, what do you do, I will carry it for you. As for the enemies, it is different,
The so-called people don't offend me, I don't offend people, if you make me uncomfortable, I will make your life worse than death.
Li Dongyang immediately reacted when he heard it, and it was very difficult to receive this hot potato in his hand.
Taking advantage of his mistake, he took the opportunity to ask for the guilt, "Your Majesty, Weichen has committed a big taboo by instructing the official to be sparse this time, and it is almost a big disaster. The minister was a lake for a while, and he had a negative grace. I beg your majesty to remove your ministers from the cabinet to set an example! ”
Zhu Houzhao said in his heart that these historical names are really slippery.
Although it is not a light crime to use the official for his own use as a cabinet minister, as he said before, the starting point of this matter is still for the public, not for private interests. Public opinion is in their hands again, even if they make mistakes, their reputation is still there, but the means are a little inferior.
It's embarrassing to quit the cabinet like this, but it's okay.
But what if you stay in the cabinet? That is, life is better than death.
Emperor Hongzhi was angry, but he still subconsciously glanced at the prince, only to see the prince shake his head slightly,
The Emperor was a little surprised.
Zhu Houzhao knew that he didn't understand, so he wasn't in a hurry to explain now.
In fact, there are two main points,
First, his goal has been achieved, that is, Qian Gui's people. In a sense, his counterattack is actually a kind of cutting off of wings, and after this time, the courtiers can see the difference between serving the prince and serving the cabinet. Moreover, now that there are divisions of land in many parts of the country, it may cause some turmoil, and he also has to consider the stability of the court situation. The Cabinet is still intact as well.
Second, Li Dongyang is a guilty person to keep, will he be very comfortable? No, not to mention how to deal with Qian Gui, the next officials across the country are waiting to impeach him. Even if you really want to remove him, you can wait for him to be impeached for a while before withdrawing, and at that time it will seem that we are benevolent and righteous.
On the contrary, if he really resigned like this now, then he would be satisfied, and he could easily say to Liu Jian and Xie Qian: Although I made the mess, I still have to deal with it, so I will leave first.
Therefore, politics cannot be judged by the quality of the mood, otherwise it will be incompetent.
"Your sins will be punished, but the prince said that the prince was right before, the officials of the Ming Dynasty can't open their mouths to resign, what's the matter? I can't have a little temper as an emperor?! ”
"Don't dare!"
Li Dongyang only felt uncomfortable, and a boulder in his heart couldn't be moved, so that he felt a little uncomfortable breathing, but his thoughts in his heart still didn't stop, trying to find a way out for himself, "Then, the minister dares to ask Your Majesty, does the minister need to avoid suspicion?" ”
This sentence is not easy to answer.
Answering that you need to avoid suspicion, you will cheapen him.
The answer does not need to avoid suspicion, it is not very reasonable.
Zhu Houzhao secretly pulled the emperor, and then preemptively asked, "What do you think?" ”
Li Dongyang: ???
Don't play!
This is also Emperor Jiajing's gameplay, don't make it clear, let you guess!
There's a power trick for me to learn, you follow me! I don't fucking feel bad for you!
Emperor Hongzhi didn't care so much, since the prince said so, he also said: "Yes, you can do it yourself." ”
He opened his mouth, then it was a holy decree, and Li Dongyang didn't have anything to do.
Liu Jian, who was kneeling next to him, asked: "Your Majesty, if you punish the imperial historian seriously, I am afraid that it will silence many officials, which is really not a blessing for the imperial court." But Qian Gui and others are indeed not upright, which is against the way of the ministers. It's very difficult to grasp this. The minister wants to ask for an order, and His Majesty asks the minister to watch and handle it, so how to do it? ”
Zhu Houzhao thought to himself that Liu Jian was still straightforward, but he was not stupid, and he really wanted to ask this question.
However, there will be no answer to such a question.
The emperor has some experience in dealing with this, "This matter is very important, you first draw up an opinion, and then I will make a decision!" Okay, if there are no other problems, let's go back. ”
Once the order to evict the guests was issued, it was natural that all of them would retreat.
After the person is gone,
Zhu Houzhao told the emperor about the meaning behind the conversation just now, and Hongzhi was really surprised when he heard it, "Speaking of which, these courtiers look loyal and honest, but in fact, they are all human spirits!" ”
Loyal and honest?
Zhu Houzhao didn't want to say more, which honest person could get such a high-ranking official?
"It's just that Liu Jian is better, and he finally asked like that."
"Father really thinks that Liu Jian asked like that because he was honest?"
Emperor Hongzhi was a little stunned.
"Besides those, what are the reasons?"
Zhu Hou said in his heart, the historical record is right, this father is really a good person, he likes to think about people for the better, like he is hopeless, and he is always speculating about the meaning behind others.
Because the smarter the person, the less likely they are to talk casually.
"Father, Liu Jian is the head of the cabinet, and he has to ask that question no matter what. asked, he, the head of the cabinet, can give an account to the ministers, it's not that he didn't fight with his father, but he fought for it, but his father didn't give him an answer, and his father must deal with him like this. ”
Hongzhi Huo suddenly got up, "So, I'm still fooled?" ”
"It's not fooled. Whoever is in that position has to ask the same question. It didn't matter to his father. Because the father is the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven commands the ministers, and it is only right. ”
These many things are complicated to say, but in the end, they are nothing more than four words: pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages.
Zhu Houzhao pulled the emperor over and sat down, and said with a smile: "Now, our father and son will see how the cabinet handles, there are many things in the world, and there are no two or two weights if you don't weigh it, and if you weigh it, you can't stop it with a thousand catties." If a crime like this is lightly dealt with, the cabinet will be unfair, and if it is dealt with heavily, no one will dare to move again in the future. ”
The only thing is that I don't know how Shandong is, but don't let those people spoil the situation.
Li Dongyang has been silent since he went back, and so has Xie Qian,
None of them dared to speak,
Because Liu Jian, who has a bad temper, is now full of anger.
“…… Elder Liu Ge, Elder Xie Ge, this matter is all because of me, which has caused such a big trouble to the two of you. ”
Now what?
Liu Jian has not expressed his opinion on many things for so many years, in fact, what he wants in his heart is to divide the fields in place, but he has been an official for many years, so he naturally knows that this matter is not easy.
If he could, he would like to measure the military tuns at the border passes, and it would be best to dig up all the rotten roots and dry them.
What is the matter with reading the books of the sages? It's just to assist the monarch and the people.
Now he sees everything very clearly,
For example, what kind of person is the prince today? Absolute single-mindedness for the people.
At the beginning, he and Wu Kuan jointly wanted to change the prince's education plan, which was essentially to educate this seedling well, and the hope of the country in the future was still on him.
But today, seeing that Li Dongyang couldn't make any trouble, his mind changed little by little.
is a heroic lord like the crown prince, which is definitely not as powerful as today's saints. But now too many officials, including himself, have this habit, and it is really wrong to think that the eleventh year of Hongzhi is still the same as the previous ten years.
In addition, he is the head of the cabinet, and his official position has come to an end, and he is now responsible for His Majesty, the people, and the Ming Dynasty. Speaking of seeking fame, he also has to consider his historical status.
In other words, which Shousuke hasn't thought about it?
No one wants to be the 'Banzai Pavilion Elder', right?
But when you think about it, the prince has more courage than him, the prince dares to make those murderous decisions, the prince dares to grasp such incompetent officials, all the limelight, all the focus and all the contradictions are on the prince,
He, the head of the cabinet, even if he acts fiercely, is also the meaning of the palace.
Unless there is a rebellion, who can take the crown prince?
So what if he's not intense? Naturally, there will be no big mistakes, but the crown prince must have a general impression of him, and in the future, if the dynasty changes, his head will be at most at that time, and even if the prince grows up for a few more years, it is possible to simply persuade His Majesty to replace him. Second, he also has the ideal of rejuvenating the country in his heart, so he is naturally not ashamed to live in chaos.
Liu Jian suddenly found that he had a delicate opportunity that had never been seen in history.
Ideally, he could do what he had learned.
Personally, it is also possible to gain a different look from the crown prince and prolong his political life.
In the past 100 years of the dynasty, which Shoufu can be like him?
In addition, he also felt that he didn't have to get too close to the prince, first of all, the prince was a master who was right about things and not people, and he was happy to see it when it was beneficial to the country. Secondly, it is not beautiful to be close to him, he is the emperor's head, not the prince's head.
hey
This world is really mysterious.
“…… Binzhi, Yu Qiao, let's sort things out. Your Majesty is on fire, and those of us who are courtiers must do things better in order to live up to the grace of God. I thought about it for a while, and the most important thing at the moment is nothing more than two things, one is how to deal with Qian Gui and other imperial histories. The second is the division of land in Shandong and other places. The two things are equally important, and one cannot be neglected at the expense of the other. ”
Although Li Dongyang is very embarrassed today and feels uncomfortable, it is not fashionable to mess up this kind of thing when he is criticized by the leader, if he dares to lie down, he may lie down forever. So the work is still the work.
"The so-called outline is easy first and then difficult." Liu Jian first took a pile of music from Shandong, and discussed and said: "Your Majesty's will on the matter of dividing the land has been very clear, and we must find a place for the poor people to live, this is a holy decree, and it is also ...... It is also the meaning of the East Palace. It is also the essence of our officials, which cannot be ignored. Therefore, I think that those who have not yet been allocated land should be urgently reprimanded, urging them to speed up their progress, and those who engage in fraud should be dismissed from their posts and investigated...... At this time, don't say whose students or relatives are, if you make trouble with Your Highness, who can be good? ”
When I said this last year, maybe everyone didn't care.
This year will be different.
Whether it is Li Dongyang or Xie Qian, there will be no doubts,
That little demon, whoever has the ability to offend whoever goes.
"I agree with Elder Liu Ge's opinion." Even if Xie Qian has some doubts in his heart, such as whether he will be too impatient, he will not say it at this time, the emperor, the crown prince, and the first prince are all unified, what else do you say?
"Then let's work hard, and we will handle it accordingly. As for the matter of Qian Gui......"
The prince's problem is really going to kill them.
Li Dongyang was full of guilt, although he failed to avoid suspicion in front of the emperor, but when he came down, he had to deliberately avoid it and try not to speak. But he didn't speak, and he thought that he had thrown the problem to two colleagues...... Uncomfortable......
Xie Qian also felt a headache, "After all, this is the imperial history, if you go out from the cabinet to deal with it, I'm just afraid that ...... There will be an uproar. ”
It's a way to think about it,
The other is to figure out what it means.
What is right and wrong about being an official? If there is, then guessing the leader's mind is right, and guessing not is wrong.
Liu Jian thought that the prince was actually not a person who did not dare to take responsibility, if he did not dare to take responsibility, he would have tried his best to protect Zhang Yong like that? If he didn't dare to take responsibility, would he protect Yang Tinghe like this this time?
So this time he adopted this kind of stiff shoulder, there must be another reason, but he didn't know it.
Second, according to the prince's existing style, what he meant must be to redo Qian Gui, otherwise why would he react so violently? Anticlimactic is not something that such a smart person would do.
So since you guessed it, then things are actually easy to do. As for the meaning of going out of the cabinet...... It's really not good,
But at the same time, he can also strengthen his position in the heart of the East Palace, and ...... Re-establishing Qian Gui's prestige in Li Dongyang also has a negative impact, and Li Dongyang can't say anything, so that he, the first assistant, is as stable as Mount Tai, and this rare historical opportunity can also last longer.
It's not a good idea,
But the question from the East Palace is really difficult to solve, and it can only be said that a relatively good one was found in the cracks.
"My opinion, is Qian Gui's eucalyptus scroll suspected of bullying the king?"
Li Dongyang and Xie Qian were shocked when they heard this, knowing that Liu Ge was always upright, but don't be so hard, right?
Xie Qian immediately persuaded: "Elder Liu Ge, you can't kill the official!" No matter how serious the crime is, the most he will be dismissed from his post is dismissal. Even so, I am afraid that more impeachment will be incurred. ”
This matter, no matter how you do it, is always going to be impeached, and some people just want you to give up your position.
Liu Jian finally made up his mind to "dismiss his post and go to the official...... Add four more words and never be hired. The first four words are because he is a speech official, so he does not want his life. The last four words mean that he is incompetent, what is the use of such an official? ”
Xie Qian thought, this is better than killing it directly anyway.
"Then, let's follow what Liu Ge said."
Li Dongyang sighed in his heart, no matter what the result of the discussion was, he couldn't speak in this matter.
In fact, thinking about it now, he really thinks that the prince is too scheming, and ordinary people are offended by others, so they must find a way to beat him.
But the prince seems to know them very well, and even left him in the cabinet, and now Qian Gui, Zhao Muyong and others have lost their officials because of him, and they don't need to be hired, if he also falls into a little bad luck with him, it would be fine, at least no one is jealous, and now, he is still the same cabinet minister. Isn't this a call for impeachment?
On the contrary, the crown prince expects that there will be more officials. Wang Wei, Zhang Tianrui, Yang Tinghe, which one is not a heavy responsibility?
