Chapter 175: Can Half of the Analects Rule the World?

In the face of this rather subversive high theory, Zhu Gaochi gritted his teeth, it is true, it is too dangerous to let the courtiers get involved in foreign affairs.

The brains of these people simply can't look at overseas affairs calmly.

Either it's the land of miasma, a wild land, worthless. Either it's a small country, not worth mentioning.

Anyway, it's hard for them to look at overseas calmly.

The brain is not clear, and the decisions made are also confused.

Add to that their conspiracy and calculations, and they don't know what they will turn things on.

Especially the father is belligerent again, this time he stopped it, what will he do next time?

"Brother Xian, do you know who is competent in foreign affairs?" Zhu Gaochi said curiously.

Xu Jingchang was stunned, "I really don't know this, why is there a lack of this kind of talent in the DPRK!"

Zhu Gaochi scratched his head, "Then it's troublesome, I still want to find a suitable person so that I can entrust me with a heavy responsibility!" Why don't you do it yourself?"

Xu Jingchang rolled his eyelids, "You want to exhaust me! There are enough things in Jinyiwei, and there are also those new science and technology scholars, Xie Jin's side is also tinkering with a new statecraft, from top to bottom, from the inside out, our Ming Dynasty is brewing changes. If you tell me to take care of the external affairs again, I'll die on the spot!"

Wu Shan also jumped into the ranks of ***, dressed in crimson, looking down on his colleagues.

Xu Jingchang was shocked, "Wu Shan, you not only ate a piece of meat from the Ministry of Rites, but also took a bite of the household! Xia Yuanji is probably going crazy."

"Yes, let the lower officials be responsible for formulating tariffs with various countries...... Not only the city department, but also gave the field to the lower officials."

There were one or two hundred people at every turn, and more than 500 of them came from the Japanese country.

Xu Jingchang snorted, "The poor family is rich. You don't bring any money with you? Is it true that the Ming Dynasty has mountains of gold and silver? Can't eat it all, can't spend it all? Go ahead and don't waste time."

For this little thing, it is necessary to set up a special organization, and it is indeed a hospitable state!

Leave external affairs to professionals.

Wu Shan did not hesitate, Xu Jingchang's words, when they came to him, were more effective than the holy decree.

Zhu Dapang glanced at Xu Jingchang, "If you have the diligence of your eldest cousin, I don't have to be so troublesome."

The Ministry of Rites has four cleaning divisions, of which there are two cleaning divisions for the host and guest and fine dining, one is in charge of giving back goods, and the other is in charge of food and entertainment.

"Nonsense, you don't need me to help you except your father! Tell me, what are you going to do?"

Okay, you're a big fat man!

Pull me into the water in this way!

Wu Shan is listed as one of the four ugly, and from an outsider's point of view, it must be my person.

"Government affairs at home and abroad also need to be dredged, and this arrangement is reasonable."

Good guy, you dare to adjust the official system, Zhu Gaochi, your courage is getting bigger and bigger.

Xu Jingchang got up, washed and dined, thinking in his heart, what is going on today...... At this time, Wu Shan suddenly trotted in from outside.

"Wait a minute." Xu Jingchang said, "What benefits have you gained? How I haven't heard of it."

Xu Jingchang frowned, "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up, what position did you get?"

….

Originally, the establishment of the General Administration Department was a general political envoy, with left and right general administration and left and right senators.

Zhu Gaochi simply snorted coldly, didn't talk nonsense with him, but turned his head and ran towards the palace...... He didn't go to see Zhu Di, but ran to see Empress Xu.

Wu Shan didn't care about this, after he cleaned up all the missions, he began to clean up the accounts of the Ministry of Rites.

No matter where it is arranged, all of them are taken care of by the Ming court and provided food and clothing.

But seeing his eldest son panting and rushing over, he was still very happy, sat up, let Zhu Gaochi sit beside him, and then handed him the snacks.

Wu Shan directly wrote to the imperial court and requested the abolition of the two Qing officials to avoid waste.

It's no wonder that they all rushed over, who can refuse such a cheap thing?

This time, Wu Shan took over the foreign affairs, and he was not welcome.

Wu Shan saw that Xu Jingchang really didn't seem to know, so he hurriedly said the truth...... He was promoted to the rank of right-hand general and was in charge of foreign affairs.

Almost at the same time, Di Bao also exerted his strength.

Wu Shan smiled, "My lord, not only for foreign affairs, but also for the city department to be handed over to the lower officials."

Xu Jingchang was also stunned, he didn't have any suggestions, could it be that this was the handiwork of Zhu Da Fatty?

Zhu Gaochi took the dim sum, ate a piece, and complained to Empress Xu: "Queen Mother, you don't know, those courtiers are really too hateful, just know how to give their father a bad idea. And now I feel more and more that I can't govern the country according to the Confucian set of things, there are too many loopholes, and it is too easy to do bad things."

"Look at you tired, last court, and you worked so hard?"

Wu Shan smiled humbly, "So you have to rely on the protection of adults, otherwise this small body of lowly duties will not be able to bear it at all!"

"Field?"

All the mission personnel were sent outside the treasure gate.

It's not ***, it's ***.

Xu Jingchang rolled his eyelids and suddenly understood what was going on.

Empress Xu said with a tense face: "You are still the prince, don't be like your cousin, criticize the courtiers. He scolds and scolds, and if you still scold, you will lose people's hearts, you know?"

Wu Shan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "The adult is joking with the lowly position again, without the help of the adult, how can the lowly position get such a good position, the lowly position is really engraved in the heart, and I am grateful."

Zhu Gaochi nodded, "The kid knows...... But the child has a plan, I wonder if the queen mother can agree?"

Wu Shan was originally a left-hand senator, but his promotion to the right-hand government can be regarded as a normal promotion.

In the future, when dealing with the vassal state, the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple are all on the side, and the General Administration Department has the final say.

However, not long ago, Zhu Di mentioned the general political envoy to the second grade, and the right general government was also correspondingly to the third grade, which was the same level as the waiter.

"The old man talks about the madness of teenagers...... Have you picked up the dog's head?" Xu Jingchang said casually.

When Empress Xu heard this, she was shocked, and she pondered for a little and said, "Cheng, I agreed to this matter, it's true, your father is too loser, and he doesn't know how to save at all."

Just look at it, these people are like eating yeast, since they arrived in the Ming Dynasty, they have begun to get rich, and they have gained more than ten pounds.

He left in a hurry, and within the night the missions of seven countries were driven out...... These missions to the Ming Dynasty were accompanied by many people.

….

……

Empress Xu chuckled, "Are you looking for your father?"

Well, in that case, don't blame me for being unkind.

The will was specially explained, and the external affairs were all under the command of the General Administration, and Wu Shan was directly responsible.

The inn couldn't live at all, so it had to arrange 300 people outside the city.

With the right person, promotion is like riding a rocket.

And he was not only promoted, but also held great power.

Wu Shan hurriedly ran to Xu Jingchang, put the gift on the corner of the table, and then bowed deeply, "Thank you for your support, your lord is really the reborn parent of the lower official, and the lower official is grateful."

"Xu Qin? He's been doing nothing for too many years, and he's a bit of a top now. After a few days, he will understand that the joy of the world is still the moment he picks up the fishing rod. There's nothing more enjoyable than when a fish is hooked."

Zhu Gaochi was shocked, "How did the queen mother know?"

"Queen Mother, think about it, my father is preparing to go to the West, and he will make a trip immediately, and when all countries come to the court, more and more Yi people will definitely enter the Ming Dynasty...... The courtiers always say that they have friends from afar, and they don't say anything. The father is a great joy again. Let him see a foreign minister casually, and we will lose tens of thousands of taels of silver. If he had promised to send troops, the losses would have been even greater. There must be a yamen to block them and save money. This money is all money used by children to govern the country, and it can't be wasted."

"Ichibu?"

cinnabar

Gao Chi smiled, and then told Empress Xu that he planned to deprive the Ministry of Rites of its external functions, that is, the Ministry of Rites was only in charge of domestic affairs.

"Your food and lodging are all at your own expense. The Kingdom of Heaven will only provide protection, and if there is anything to be discussed, it can be discussed with the officials of the General Administration."

In his hands, he also carried a few gift boxes, and the whole person exuded a burst of joy, from him, it was like spring.

Wu Shan was taken aback, "My lord, what if they run out of money and starve?"

The faces of the envoys of the Japanese Kingdom turned green, we have a big event now, can you borrow some money to spend...... Who would have thought that when they arrived in Shangguo, the always hospitable Ming would actually let them spend their own money, is there a reason for this?

Wu Shan also saw their embarrassment, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, this official has helped you think it through...... You can apply for a loan, and when you go back to the Ming fleet, you will recover the loan. Rest assured, the interest rate is not high, only one into five, the same as in our country. In fact, when I think of traveling thousands of miles across the ocean to collect money, I feel sorry for the soldiers of the Ming fleet. Not asking for ten times the interest is already considered a blessing, you must know how to be grateful to Dade!"

"You will issue a decree now, requiring all the envoys of the feudal clan outside Beijing to move out of the inner castle pavilion and go to the designated location outside the Jubao Gate. In the future, they will be responsible for all the accommodation, food and clothing, and the Ministry of Rites will no longer provide it."

In the past winter, Queen Xu contracted a wind chill that lasted for half a month, and to this day, she is always tired and no longer what she used to be.

What else can these people say, I thank you, thank you for your eight-generation ancestors!

Wu Shan, the new right-hand general government, made drastic moves, rectified maladministration, and saved more than 100,000 taels of silver in entertainment expenses for the Ming Dynasty every year!

At the end of this report, a sharp comment was added, just because of Confucianism's hospitable proposition, it was necessary to give preferential treatment to foreign vassal missions, but the result was a waste of state funds and people's wealth, and the people's fat and people's ointment.

Wouldn't this be contrary to Confucius's benevolence and love for the people?

When the princes of the court and the princes, should they reflect on how to govern the country? Can half of the Analects rule the world?

The contradictions of Confucianism were mentioned several times in the Golden Palace before, but that was limited to discussion in the court, but this time it was brought to the Di Bao and published publicly, so that everyone in the world could see it and give comments......
