Chapter 18 Qin Huai listens to music
Yang Rong suddenly stood up, although he didn't say much, but he reversed the direction of the discussion, don't get entangled in what ancestral system, what bad thing about the restoration of the prime minister, let's talk about it, is it good for the government affairs of the court?
These words also hit Zhu Di's mind, he was indeed entangled in complicated government affairs, busy from morning to night, there was no spare time at all, if he could classify and urge hundreds of officials to work hard, it was definitely what Zhu Di couldn't ask for.
As for the issue of violating the ancestral system, if the ancestral system is really so important, how can he Zhu Di still be a vassal king in Beiping, how can he sit on the dragon chair?
In the final analysis, the reason why the Ming Dynasty did not reinstate the prime minister was purely because the six ministries were unwilling to completely become the prime minister's subordinate officials and had been resisting, and in the later period, the cabinet authority came up, and there was already the fact of the prime minister, so there was no need to risk violating the ancestral system and reinstate the prime minister.
All in all, in the Ming Dynasty, the ancestral system that conforms to the mind of the big guy is the ancestral system, and what does not meet the mind of the big guy can only be abandoned.
Zhu Di was very satisfied with Yang Rong's words, when he wanted to enter Yingtian, it was Yang Rong who suggested that he should first go to pay homage to Zhu Yuanzhang's filial piety.
Zhu Di immediately agreed, obediently went to the grave of Lao Zhu, and went to be his good son.
Because of this, Yang Rong, who was only a jinshi in the second year of Jianwen, was suddenly promoted to a bachelor of Hanlin, and then managed the ceremony process of Zhu Di's accession to the throne.
It is like a new star in the civil service community.
"Don't quarrel."
Zhu Di said coldly: "Since I ascended the throne, although the time has not been long, the daily government affairs are complicated, as little as two or three hundred, as many as five or six hundred. I am so busy, and as a result, the government affairs have fallen to the six ministries, and there are so many that have not been handled, which is really a shame for me! ”
Zhu Di set his sights on Ru Yu, the secretary of the military department.
"Ru Yu, you had a quarrel just now, and I asked someone to get the note written by Xu Tongzheng...... I found out that your military department has not implemented a single thing, what is going on? ”
Ru Yu's face changed, and he hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty, the Ministry of War is related to military affairs, and in the government affairs assigned by Your Majesty, there are adjustments by the generals of the Nine Sides, rewards and meritorious soldiers, and supplemental military registration, each of which is very cumbersome, and it is not something that can be done in a day or two." Therefore, the minister thought that like Xu Tongzheng, he did not know the difficulty of government affairs at all, so he pointed fingers at will, which was not only not conducive to the implementation of government affairs, but would disrupt the court situation. ”
Zhu Di was slightly stunned, and it seemed to sound reasonable.
At this time, Xu Jingchang didn't like to listen to it, "Ru Shangshu, you just talk about the difficulty of the military department, then I want to ask for advice, the official department is not difficult, and the household department is not difficult?" The Ministry of Industry wants to repair the three major halls, and it also needs to be built in the Beijing Government Office, which is easier? It is clear that you are hard to change, lazy in government affairs, and perfunctory, and now I have discovered it, so I am angry. ”
Ru Yu's old face is iron-blue, Xu Jingchang, this kid, is really bad to speak, poke your lungs every word, and he is indeed Jianwen's old minister, and his position is still very high.
Let Xu Jingchang continue to say, what is the yang and the yin, the ill-intentioned, and the intention of rebellion is about to come out.
"Xu Tongzheng, since you know that the big guys have difficulties, why are you different and make it even more difficult for the big guys?"
Xu Jingchang said politely: "I don't understand this, someone wrote a book to say something, His Majesty approved it, and handed it over to your six government offices for you to implement." You can't live without movement, right? For example, if Your Majesty wants to adjust the list of generals of the Nine-Sided Army, it will involve 100 people or 200 people. How many have you gotten now? How many percent is completed, where is the difficulty, is it because someone in the military department is lazy, or if it involves other yamen, you can't push it...... There must be an explanation for these things, it can't be after a while, Your Majesty remembered, and when he asked, he didn't do anything, just listening to you complain there, what is the reason? ”
This question, Ru Yu was speechless and difficult to answer.
Indeed, that's how they fooled Zhu Yunwen.
As long as the hundred officials do their best, Zhu Yunwen, who is sitting in the world, will not be beaten by Zhu Di to lose his armor and lose the country.
The matter has been discussed here, and the imposing six important ministers have fallen behind.
It is true that the rattling machine of the Ming Dynasty needs to add a part, and the rules of operation should also be adjusted.
Xu Jingchang just got it right and poked this thing out.
Yao Guangxiao, who had been silent at this time, spoke, "Your Majesty, the minister has a few words to say." ”
Zhu Di hurriedly smiled and said, "Young Master Yao, if you have any high opinions, just talk about it." ”
Yao Guangxiao said: "Your Majesty, this is the case, the current government affairs are indeed complicated, and it is necessary to remove the old and cloth the new, and refresh the society." Take the old minister as an example, His Majesty asked the minister to preside over the revision of the Taizu Record. What is the progress of the minister's side, what troubles have been encountered, how many talents are needed, who has made great contributions, and who has made mistakes, it is indeed necessary to inform the outside world, so that Your Majesty and the courtiers also know in their hearts. We can't wait until ten or eight years later, just to give the imperial court a conclusion that it has not been repaired, so that it will inevitably be suspected of lazy official duties. ”
Yao Guangxiao's words are almost final, he is Zhu Di's mastermind, a henchman among his henchmen.
It's just that Yao Guangxiao was reluctant to stand up and speak in the past, so he gave others space, and now this one also stood up to support Xu Jingchang, and almost instantly turned the tables.
The courtiers could no longer resist, and the official Shangshu Jianyi was the first to stand up.
"Your Majesty, what the young master said is indeed the right thing, but it is just to sort out government affairs and supervise the six ministries, such a big matter can't all fall on the General Administration, and the minister thinks that His Majesty should personally control it."
Xia Yuanji also said: "Indeed, although Xu Tongzheng is talented and quick-witted, after all, he is too young, he is new to his career, and he is not familiar with the rules and regulations of the dynasty, and some government affairs may not be clear. ”
Zhu Di frowned slightly, still thinking.
At this time, Yang Rong, a scholar of Hanlin, stood up again, "Your Majesty, after Emperor Taizu deposed Zhongshu Province, he set up four auxiliary officials for consultation. Subsequently, he followed the system of the Tang and Song dynasties and set up a palace bachelor to assist the monarch and participate in the maintenance of the aircraft. The minister thought that this move seemed more appropriate, and it also respected the ancestral system more. ”
Although Yang Rong doesn't talk much, every time he stands up, he hits the nail on the head.
Originally, Ru Yu didn't they talk about the ancestral system!
Now he has moved out of Zhu Yuanzhang's practice to let Zhu Di carry forward, and the so-called palace scholars are usually selected from Hanlin Wenchen who are familiar with the imperial court rules and regulations.
At this moment, it was equivalent to blocking the General Administration Department, and refuting Xia Yuanji's idea of recommending important ministers to preside over major politics.
Zhu Di thought about it for a while and immediately nodded.
At this time, he still has to do his best to be Lao Zhu's good son, since his father is not allowed to reinstate the prime minister, he can't do it. If it is like what Xia Yuanji said, the important ministers will supervise the six departments and hundreds of officials.
Then there is no doubt that whoever gets this position will be the new prime minister.
As for handing it over to the General Administration, Zhu Di is not at ease, mainly because Xu Jingchang, this kid is too capable of tossing, how many days has it been, he has clashed with Qiu Fu, clashed with hundreds of officials, and then let him supervise hundreds of officials, so the court is not as lively as the vegetable market?
In order to avoid the situation of restlessness, Yang Rong's proposal is very safe.
"In that case, let's select a group of well-known ministers from among the Hanlin scholars."
Zhu Di made the final decision, the courtiers who had quarreled for a circle, look at me, I look at you, what else can you say?
Your Majesty!
Coming out of the main hall, Xu Jingchang walked forward, and the chubby Xia Yuanji took two steps and stopped him, and then Jian Yi also followed.
"Xu Tongzheng, how about we sit down and talk?"
Xu Jingchang looked at the two of them, furious, "What are you talking about?" You see that the political secretary eats meat, and you are not happy in your heart, so you have to stir it up, now it is okay, Your Majesty has chosen Hanlin Cichen to assist, and there is an extra dark cloud on your head, and you may not know what kind of wind and frost sword will be issued in the future, so that you can look good! This matter has fallen to the General Political Department, and I can't always be a general political envoy, and when I leave, isn't it just that you arrange the right person! I've never seen anything so stupid. ”
After Xu Jingchang finished speaking, he strode away.
Jian Yi and Xia Yuanji looked at each other, and they also felt that something was wrong, but there was no better way.
"Xu Tongzheng, you wait!" Xia Yuanji shouted again.
Xu Jingchang snorted: "With you group of insects, how can you do a good job in Daming?" I'm going to Qinhuai River to listen to music! ”
