Li Dongyang and Xie Qian have been from the sea for decades, and they can understand the emperor's thoughts as soon as they say a few words.

What the emperor insisted on was actually the three words of the overall situation.

In this matter between Gu Zuo and Shaofu, what is the overall situation?

The answer may be difficult to say. But it's definitely not for the so-called careful thinking above the court.

But this way of employing people is extremely difficult for the emperor because it is unbalanced.

If you use one person and help another person to deal with him like Jiajing, then it will be easier for the court to control it, because the emperor is transcendent in this situation, and no one dares to offend the emperor.

Zhu Houzhao also used the celebrant to balance the cabinet, but his usage was still for the advancement of specific things.

It can be said that the struggle serves the government affairs, and not the government affairs only serve the struggle.

If it is the latter, fighting to the end is to bring down the other party as the foundation of everything, as for the country and the people, they have long been left behind.

And the reason why the imbalance is so difficult and difficult is that

It is easy to make the side supported by the emperor into a big tail.

At that time, his wings will be full, and it will be difficult to find someone to check and balance, and even the emperor himself cannot do without him.

In fact, Shaofu does have this kind of sign,

The Shaofu ordered Gu Zuo to control so much money and such important government affairs, and it was inevitable that he would personally promote a large number of officials. These people have different paths.

After such a period of time,

When others mention Gu Liqing again, they can say that 'protégés and old officials are all over the world'.

This sentence comes from the "Book of the Later Han Dynasty Yuan Shao Biography": Yuan Shuen IV, protégés and former officials all over the world, if the heroes are collected to gather the disciples, the heroes rise because of it, then Shandong is not public.

Li Dongyang wants to say these words.

He would not be adamant against the Emperor's choice, but he would say what he had to say.

“…… Yuan Shuen IV, protégés and former officials are all over the world," Zhu Houzhao muttered and repeated this sentence,

In fact, if he is already very old, then this sentence will carry a lot of weight.

After all, it is impossible to dig a hole for a son.

But he is much younger than Gu Zuo.

It is rare that Li Dongyang is willing to say such things.

These people in the cabinet will not support him as the emperor every time, because the ideas are sometimes different, but at least they are willing to seek for the sake of the Ming Dynasty.

"Liu Jin, you know what it means to be loyal to the country, this is called the country of public loyalty."

Liu Jin bowed slightly, he has been a little indulgent recently, and Zhang Yong's return told him to calm down. Sometimes he was aware of something...... The Emperor's Thoughts.

The reins were loosened and tightened, and this was his life.

"Elder Li Ge, Elder Xie Ge,"

"Wechen is here."

"I know about it. But whether it is the auction of the salt field or the opening of the city that never sleeps, it is a matter of my heart, and it is taboo for soldiers to change their commanders on the spot. As for the ups and downs in the court, although I am young, I have seen a lot. Since ancient times, who has worried about this? ”

The emperor's speech always has a sharp spirit, which is obviously different from the previous emperor.

“…… But when you say that you are busy and idle, this is also a problem. Today's letter of Hangzhou weaving, the two elders brought back, the matter of the city, you discuss with the officials, be sure to choose people, dispose of it properly, in addition, Liu Xixian in Shandong to ask for more opening of the city, these things, but also ask the two elders to deal with it together, which can be folded. The opening of the sea by the imperial court is not just an opening of the door, and the future management and tax collection are all major events. ”

"The Ming Dynasty has a territory of thousands of miles and hundreds of trillions of people, no one should say that only the Shaofu has great responsibilities and many affairs, I am here...... There's a lot going on. ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!!"

The two of them came out of the Qianqing Palace, and the scorching August sun fell on their faces, but the mood was different.

The emperor is amazingly talented, and what he has done is unprecedented, and sometimes they are burdened in their hearts.

There is even a feeling that I don't know whether Daming will be happy or sad in the future.

Looking back at the majestic palace, they suddenly felt that what they envied most about Gu Liqing was actually something else.

"Forty-three years, I still remember in hope, Fenghuo Yangzhou Road. Yu Qiao, the most regrettable thing is that you and I are too old to see the future that Your Majesty said. ”

Xie Qian stretched out his hand to help, the sun at noon was too much, there were so many steps and thresholds along the way, the road in the palace was really difficult to walk, and it was becoming more and more difficult to walk, so he always had to be helped.

"There are talented people from generation to generation, and they have led the way for hundreds of years. Let's do what we are doing well at hand and win peace of mind. From now on, I will see it in heaven with peace of mind. ”

……

Zhu Houzhao walked out of the Qianqing Palace, looked at the backs of the two old men in the distance, and suddenly thought of another thing.

In fact, Gu Liqing is favored this time, won't the cabinet have any opinions? It's just a matter of talking.

Not to mention that it is actually tamed, and since people have obeyed, generally speaking, Zhu Houzhao will not do things too well, otherwise who will be able to play with you.

"Called...... Xie Pilai. ”

He originally wanted to talk about Yan Song, but then he thought about Xie Pi better.

Liu Jin listened to the order and went immediately.

Xie Pi is only twenty-five years old, his beard has just come out, and his youthful spirit has not disappeared, but the attendant room is hard, and he is a little exhausted compared to the beginning.

"Weichen Xie Pi, see Your Majesty."

"At the beginning of the year, the imperial court allocated 300,000 taels of silver to Shandong as payment for repairing the river. You go to Shandong to have a look. ”

This happened suddenly, Xie Pi could only respond, "Weichen obeys the order." Don't know when to go? ”

"Wait for two days, and I will order one person from the household department and one person from the Ministry of Industry to go with you. This time, it is necessary to see where the silver is spent, what is repaired, what effect is there, including what difficulties are encountered, and what details are not considered before and are difficult to change in the later stage, in short, look at the whole picture, and tell the actual results of 300,000 taels of silver. In this way, the court will be able to make a decision next year, whether to continue to give this silver, whether to give more or less. ”

In this way, it is actually a big deal, after all, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver are involved.

Xie Pi suddenly felt a heavy responsibility on his shoulders.

"Weichen must do his best to live up to His Majesty's kindness."

It's a normal response, and it's nothing.

Zhu Houzhao turned around and said: "You are the second son of Xie Gelao, after you go to Shandong, you will also comfort Xixian Gong for me." ”

"Your Majesty......"

The emperor waved his hand, "Go down, just do what you want." ”

Xie Pi was slightly moved, kowtowed and retreated, "Yes." ”

In fact, Liu Jian has nothing to consol, the first one can do it, and the governor can work harder?

Although it is said that a little comfort can indeed make the old man feel more comfortable. But in fact, this thing is mainly for the three of them.

Including Li Dongyang and Xie Qian.

It is to let them see the emperor's mind and attitude.

The new emperor and the old pavilion are always difficult to get along, but Zhu Houzhao has walked out of a different way.

There are some things, it's not that they don't give them face, but they can't give it.

If there is a certain degree of tolerance between each other, in fact, the emperor and this cabinet can get along better.

This point is also more important - again, it is only the first year of Zhengde, and the cabinet has to be changed, so it is always a matter of waiting.

Of course, it is not false to send Xie Pi to prepare for next year's agenda.

It's just a two-pronged strategy.

It's not difficult for him to do it now.

……

In a few days, the beginning of September will be here in a blink of an eye.

Although the court is unbalanced, Emperor Zhengde is in power, and if someone really wants to stir up the situation, it is not something that can be done by talking.

And on seemingly ordinary days, another will came out of the palace.

The emperor sent someone to mourn the late Marquis of Weining, Wang Yue, because the day of his death had arrived.

In the Ming system, some lords will add an additional level after their deaths, such as Wang Yue was Wei Ningbo when he was alive, and he was posthumously named Wei Ning Hou after his death. However, this is more of an honor, and the hereditary descendants of future generations can only inherit Werningberg.

At that time, Wang Yue died, and it was also handled according to this practice, and it was his third son Wang Hao who inherited his title of Earl of Weining, because his eldest son and second son were dead at that time.

It is also because of Wang Yue's reason, among his grandchildren such as Wang Yu and Wang Lian are all shadows for the country's sons, but this was a few years ago, Wang Yue's descendants do not seem to be capable, and they can't read.

Of course, it is no longer the majesty of Wang Yue when he was there, but Wei Ningbo Mansion has also settled in the Beijing Division.

It's just that the number of people coming to the palace like this is really small......

However, to Zhu Houzhao's surprise, the news brought to him by the celebrant was that Wang Hao, the current Wei Ningbo, was also seriously ill.

The old general is still fighting for the country at 70, and the key is to win the war, and future generations cannot but take care of it.

"Are there any of his grandchildren who can be used?"
