Chapter 221: Thoughts
Liu Jin is not thinking about the happiness of the Mei family's two youngest daughters, he is thinking about himself. Speaking of which, the emperor has not had much to do since he was the crown prince, and if there is one, it is a capable minister.
But what do these people have to do with him? People are capable, and the relationship between them and the emperor is in the future.
Zhang Yong recommended Wu Junchuan, and this time he also went on the expedition, and it is unknown what the result will be. And in terms of time, it has been a few years, and the person surnamed Wu has probably not made any noise.
To put it bluntly, the kind of ministers like Wang Yue, Yang Ting, and such ministers that the emperor likes, how can they be so easy to find?
So Liu Jin has been seeking no way, he can't help it!
But a few days ago, I saw that the emperor was getting older, and his careful thinking began to move again, this male and female love is human nature, the young son of heaven, the world, they have no roots, but the emperor can still have it?
Besides, eunuchs don't have the kind of moral pressure of Wenchen's flattery, especially Liu Jin, he doesn't care about that, as long as he can win the emperor's favor, don't say that he will kidnap two women, even if he kills people.
Liu Jin also knows those rumors in Meifu. In fact, who in the capital doesn't know that Meifu is rich and noble, and it is true that businessmen are not allowed to take concubines, but they can't stand the fact that people are rich and buy so many beautiful women back.
Liu Jin wandered around the room for a while, and he suddenly thought of one more thing, doing things for His Majesty must be foolproof, and there can be no negligence.
But who has seen those two sisters of Mei Huaigu?
If it's a fake, wouldn't it be a waste of effort?
So after thinking about it, he still brought Gu Dayong over to discuss.
The two eunuchs hid in the house and talked about these secret words, but as soon as Liu Jin's words began, Gu Dayong began to mutter.
"Brother Liu, can this be done? Your Majesty's temperament, if you know that a few of us are playing with these flowers, I'm afraid it won't make you angry, right?"
Liu Jin sighed and nodded his head, "You really say that your brain refuses to move." As long as Your Majesty likes it, it's too late to be happy, so how can you blame us? He only thinks that we slaves are willing to put our hearts and minds into pleasing them, and that's obviously a good thing."
Is it? Gu Dayong was not sure in his heart, hesitated for a while, and shook his head like a rattle, "It's not good, Your Majesty said, we should be honest on errands, what to say, it's not fun." In particular......"
Especially this majesty, who was born with the blessing of his ancestors, has a delicate heart that thinks more thoroughly than them, and others can hide it, but if you want to hide it from him, is there a lot of pressure in your heart?
To put it mildly, people who can't hold things in their hearts will probably not be able to sleep at night if they really slip their heads in front of the emperor. Not to mention the cleverness and ruthlessness, once exposed, a layer of skin has to be removed.
Seeing him like this, Liu Jin hated that iron could not become steel, "Dayong, do you really call the pulp lake to live in your brain, I don't know as well as you about Your Majesty's temperament?" If you think about it carefully, is it easy for Your Majesty to open your mouth about this kind of thing? Your Majesty is determined to become a generation of Ming Jun, will he talk to you and me about this? But His Majesty is getting older, and he also has seven emotions and six desires, and he thinks in his heart, if we can't do it, what do you want us to do?" ….
Father-in-law Liu is about to come out of the emoji.
And this is also said explicitly, Gu Dayong was difficult to refute for a while, and even felt that there was some truth.
"Then do it, I'll listen to Brother Liu."
"Eh, it would have been like this earlier." Liu Jin moved the candle outward and buried his head deeper, "The problem now is that we only have one sentence from Mei Huaigu, and we haven't seen what his two younger sisters look like!"
Gu Da was able to understand it at this moment, "This matter is simple, didn't I save the two girls and send them to medical school? You can ask them to take a look at the matter of a word."
That's what Liu Jin meant, he didn't have the heart to do such a thing as saving people.
"Then bother you, and leave the palace tomorrow. Mei Huaigu is anxious, and it is estimated that she will go to Dr. Tan early tomorrow morning."
Gu Dayong asked again, "Let's do things so secretly, even if it is true in the end
How does Your Majesty know that it is our credit?"
"You don't have to worry about that, I've got a plan."
That's what he said, but he didn't talk about it after he had a clever plan, which made Gu Dayong a little scheming in his heart.
Isn't this when he's a wrongdoer to fool him?
When you ask him to do his work, he talks so much, and when he gets to the real critical moment, he doesn't say anything, just says that he has a clever plan, damn, what kind of clever plan are you?
In this way, in the end, it was he Liu Jin who received the credit quietly, and he didn't even know when he received it. How did Your Majesty know that Gu Dayong was also contributing to it?
However, after all, Liu Jin was a senior official, and Gu Dayong didn't dare to say much, so he could only take the order to go back first.
When I walked outside the door, my eyes rolled around, and I rolled my eyes slightly.
……
……
On the second day, Zhu Houzhao's mood was not very good.
The cause of this was the remaining 1,600,000 taels of silver. On that day, in order to use troops to the northwest, the emperor left a word, and this time all military supplies were not to be spent from the treasury.
It is also because it did not increase the burden on the treasury, so things went relatively smoothly, otherwise if there was no money, it would be to force the minister to death, and who would have a way to cook without rice?
Silver two, grain and grass are prepared, and the Beijing camp can be pulled out so quickly.
But the time of February passed slowly, and there was not much sound in the northwest, and after the people's hearts gradually settled down, the silver money in the emperor's hand attracted attention.
The current situation of the Ming Dynasty is like this, the people are poor, there are disasters in places every year, the treasury and silver are not enough, and now the emperor has money to apply for a little.
Zhang Fuhua reported that there were disaster victims in Jiangxi and Sichuan, and he was sent by the emperor to Nanzhili to borrow grain, and he borrowed grain for a long time.
Ding Zuping, the governor of Nanzhili Yingtian, also came to take a break, saying that there was no food to borrow in his hand, so it meant that the emperor would miss a little.
Moreover, the effects of the war are gradually becoming apparent, and the price of food in Jingshi has risen slowly and obviously, and other places do not know what to do.
In such a situation, how can Zhu Houzhao be happy?
As soon as the emperor was unhappy, a group of important ministers didn't think about going back to rest in the next court, and all of them were summoned to the Qianqing Palace.
The reason why he is unhappy is not that he has to spend money again, but that there is a feeling that the people below don't work and don't want to use their brains, so they know to open their mouths with him and turn them in if they have difficulties. Which leader would be happy when this kind of thing happens? ….
So he has a feeling that he is tired and tired every day, and as a result, the people below are still pulling his hind legs.
Nanzhili did not have three divisions, only two governors, namely the governor of Yingtian and the governor of Fengyang, the governor of Yingtian was stationed in Nanjing (after Wanli was stationed in Suzhou), and the governor of Fengyang was stationed in Huai'an. Governor Fengyang didn't talk about him, Governor Yingtian managed the richest and most taxed area in the country.
Like Suzhou Mansion and Songjiang Mansion, the Ming generation has always been very taxed.
Now the governor of the heavens said that there is no food to borrow, why are you a fool when I am the emperor?
So as soon as he arrived at the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Houzhao asked directly: "Who is this Ding Zuping, the governor of Yingtian?"
Wang Wei, the secretary of the ministry, replied, "Ding Zuping is a second-class jinshi of the Jichou Department in the fifth year of Chenghua, and has successively served as the director of the Criminal Department, the imperial history of Shanxi Province, and the left political participation in Shandong.
Governor Ying Tian is a member of the second grade.
It sounds like a good resume, but Zhu Houzhao doesn't look at the surface and looks at the results, no matter how awesome you are, you don't want to solve the problem for the emperor, what use do you want?
"How old are you?"
How old are you......
Wang Wei didn't remember it for a while.
Instead, Han replied, "The minister has had a relationship with him, and he is eighty out of sixty this year."
Zhu Houzhao thought to himself that he was sixty-eight people, how much else could he be expected to contribute? And most people will wait to say two good words in front of others when they speak, but Hangul doesn't say anything, which is actually a bad word.
"Remove him from his position and let him go back to his hometown to retire!" The Emperor spoke loudly, "The Cabinet will draw up the decree immediately."
Liu Jian and the emperor still have an account that has not been settled. At this time, I don't want to say anything more for a Ding Zuping.
"Yes."
This kind of anger made the atmosphere in the Qianqing Palace very serious.
"Transferred to Sichuan, the political envoy He Jian, was appointed as the governor of Yingtian. I remember that when Wang Shu was appointed as the secretary of the ministry, he used to evaluate He Jian's political performance first, and Nanzhili was a major tax collector of the imperial court, and not everyone could go to the governor of Yingtian."
That's a big deal.
Xie Qian wanted to explain this atmosphere, so he said: "He Shiguang (He Jianzi) is suitable, this person had great ambitions when he was young, and once said, 'If you go out and are not loyal to the king, and if you enter without filial piety to your relatives, you will not be ashamed of the seven-foot body of heaven and earth."
Zhu Houzhao didn't know these stories, but he still sounded like a man talking.
Of course, he, the emperor, doesn't care what these people say, what matters is what they do. He Jian was a good political envoy in Sichuan, opening canals, promoting education, and patiently leading the people to agriculture and mulberry, which was regarded as a conscientious official, and it was because of these that he went to Jiangnan.
"In addition, the decree reprimanded Zhang Fuhua, Jiangxi suffered a disaster, I ordered him to go to Nanzhili to borrow grain, even if Nanzhili is short of food, but he is a Zuodu Yushi of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, one of the nine secretaries of the imperial court, to open an opening in the place, not to mention more, it is always possible to borrow 350,000 stone of grain to save the emergency, right? As a result, he didn't borrow a single grain of food. What does this mean? Either he didn't think of a way seriously, and he only knew to open his mouth to me; Either he has a problem with his ability, and he has no ability to do things at all! Either way, I'm going to get him in trouble!"
Zhu Houzhao has seen too much in his last life. For subordinates, you can't finish the things that the leader explains, but you have to move a little, even if it's pretending, you have to pretend that you have worked hard. ….
In the case of Zhang Shihua, he should have borrowed at least a little, and then reported to the upper authorities that there was a difficulty in this matter: 1, 2, 3 o'clock, I really can't borrow food, please forgive the saint.
It's called a thing.
If you don't have a single piece of food, just say that the emperor, you can allocate money. What is it called? This is like the kind of old fritter in the later generation unit, when the leader arranges a little work and immediately opens his mouth and says, 'I can't,' the kind of old fritters.
So why should I keep you?
"Why don't you speak? Do you think I'm a bit of a strong man?" Zhu Houzhao snorted and sneered, "Don't think that I don't know, Jiuqing in the capital can afford to buy ten thousand stones of grain even if he bribes his silver!" As a result, I borrowed it for disaster relief to the imperial court, but I couldn't borrow a single one! I have long said that even if I think about the officials of the imperial court, I will use it. But there are some officials who think about themselves very much, and don't even worry about half a point for the court, what's the use of me staying?!"
The emperor pointed to Feng Xi on the side, "You just write my words as they are, and tell Zhang Fuhua to read them!" I don't believe it, the face of Zuodu Yushi can't borrow a little food! Strict decree, so that he must be completed! What kind of work in the imperial court is not difficult? If you can't do it at every turn, isn't my decree like child's play?"
The emperor was so angry that the important ministers didn't dare to speak. It's Zhang Fuhua, and the old man probably can't sleep again.
"Let's all go down." The emperor was also annoyed when he saw them like this, so he let them go first.
But he himself stayed in the Qianqing Palace for a while, and still made a will, "Xuanmao language enters the palace."
===
I forgot to say, this book is almost 5000 orders, it's not a flutter, you see the good eyes of the officials, I didn't expect the first order of 1900 to be like this.
We are a small author, and we don't want exaggerated data. But it's almost this loss and all ordered, begging for subscription...... Meet me.
