Chapter 55, Shengming? He's really a faint king!

The military ministers shouted in unison, a sight that had not appeared in the court meeting for a long time.

But at present, no Wenchen has any worries about the so-called difference between civil and military, because it is said that the throne of the Son of Heaven is unstable!

Zhu Houxi's mood at this time was much more excited than before, this was not like before.

Isn't it necessary to make good use of the inevitable etiquette to stimulate the ambition of the military generals?

"If it is reversed in the future, and there is chaos and cannot be peaceful, it can only be said that the courtiers do not need to die." After listening to these statements, Zhu Houxi looked at the Wenchen train, "Now, the kings have not rebelled against me, and the generals are loyal to their orders, and they have no objection to my succession to the throne and enjoy the honor of the throne in this great gift." ”

"If the world is really uneasy, someone will do something, and someone will rebel! At the moment, no one is doing anything, but the first agenda item of this court meeting is deliberately blocked. Zhu Houxi brought the topic back to Baiguan, "Is this for Liwei?" I am the Son of Heaven, and I need to be powerful to my subordinates in order to continue to discuss state affairs, what kind of loyal subordinates are these, and I need to be afraid of authority to be loyal to the king? ”

After the big hat continued to be buttoned, Zhu Houxi paused.

It's time to wrap up.

"More is better than less, I know. However, what I want to maintain is the great gift of the world, and it is to make the world have enough food and clothing! ”

"I only care about this great gift of the world, because only this great gift of the world determines whether the people of my world will rise up tomorrow, or because of the extreme hardship of some arrogant people. This is not only a plan for the long-term stability of the Ming Dynasty, but also a plan for the so-called unrest of the world after the unification of the Ming Dynasty! ”

"Whether I am a faint king or not is not determined by whether I am an heir or not, but by whether the people of the world have enough to eat and whether they are warmly dressed!"

"I have set up a living officer, and I am not afraid of being written down in everything I say and do. I succeeded to the throne with dignity and acted openly! ”

"Eat the king, and worry about the king. I am now a king, and if I don't want to eat my luck, and if I share my worries, I can resign and return to my hometown. If you want to stay, put your mind on real state affairs! ”

"After today, if there are any more people who are always entangled in this matter of succession and unification, regardless of other state affairs, there will be no forgiveness!"

"Elder Yang Ge, are you worried that many ills of the Ming Dynasty are almost terminal?"

After these words were said sonorously, everyone no longer had room to just stay on the text of the ritual system.

Those who can come to the court will be fools?

If the Son of Heaven does not succeed to the throne, only the interests of some people in the royal family will be harmed.

If a courtier is loyal to the king, what is he afraid of? The status that should be there, the glory and wealth that should be there, will not be less. If not, what is the picture?

If you are worried about the stability of the world and the well-being of the people in the future, then the Son of Heaven has already restrained the vassal king's grace and power, and in the future, he is even more prepared to hold high the banner of "having a solid foundation and sufficient food and clothing" for the people of the world to weaken the foundation of the anti-thief?

Under such an analysis, Yang Tinghe was embarrassed.

The kind of exposition of etiquette is deviant, intolerant and explicit! The essence of etiquette, how much more than a little benefit?

But right now, Yang Tinghe looked up at Zhu Houxi, and what he saw was the steps he handed over.

Are you worried that many ills of Daming are almost terminal?

Of course, Yang Tinghe was worried, he just didn't pin his hopes on Mingjun before.

Now, the emperor first asked whether he was loyal or not, and then bluntly said the benefits of the courtesy.

Loyalty is beneficial. With the well-being of the people in the world as the real gift, there will be a steady stream of fame and fortune that will affect future generations.

At the age of fifteen, he really didn't come here today.

Where does he really care about the so-called reputation? Yang Tinghe had already vaguely figured out the purpose of the emperor's performance today.

Looking at the military generals who had been provoked, Yang Tinghe wiped his tears with his sleeve: "The minister has been worried for many years!" His Majesty knew that the vassal king's succession was in danger, and many years of ills added new worries. Winning is determination, how can Your Majesty say that he will win? The warehouse is solid, the food and clothing are sufficient, how can Your Majesty really rule the world? ”

To get to that step, he needed a signal.

Zhu Houxi looked at him with sharp eyes: "I check the accounts, just to know how much money my Ming family has to maintain this great gift in the world." As for how to make the world truly governed, as the old man wishes, the monarch and the ministers are single-minded, and the disadvantages are reformed and the new is made! ”

"If the traitors still exist, do them one by one; Set up an internal file department, and I can understand the talent and character of hundreds of officials; Reinstate the living note, I am vigilant in words and deeds; The Ming Dynasty is unified, and the ministers must no longer have two hearts. Aren't I doing it one by one? Which of these is not a serious move for the long term? ”

Every move of the emperor has a clear attitude: he is actually very serious and long-term.

The general attack did not defeat Wang Qiong immediately, the internal file division was still set up in the ceremonial supervisor, and the living note official did not need him to fight, Mao Cheng was about to go to prison to discuss the death penalty, and His Majesty wanted to set up clear rules for rewards and punishments.

Now listening to the emperor's words to dissect his serious heart and return to his hometown, Yang Tinghe, who advocates the restoration of the old system and is conservative, can no longer say that he is just out of public heart.

The Son of Heaven has to bear the pressure of being said to be a faint king, and Shousuke must also be able to bear the heavy responsibility.

Yang Tinghe picked up his hat: "The minister has resigned twice, please record it in the internal file department." I hope that Your Majesty will always plan for the world for a long time, carry out a serious and thoughtful policy, and create wealth and know the courtesy! ”

This is the irreproachable ambition of the Son of Heaven, and no one here dares to say anything like Wen Yanbo to rule the world with the people.

He walked up the stairs and confirmed the seriousness of his resignation.

"That's how it should be!" Zhu Houxi laughed and nodded frankly, "The court will continue!" Emperor Daxing's honor, the issue of four things, Mao Cheng and the other three officials of the Ministry of Rites were unwilling to do it, and now the Ministry of Rites is waiting for a vacant position, and someone still has to do what I have to do. Before the three questions just now, there were still so many people who expressed their opposition once or twice, so I won't embarrass you. In that case, let the former ministers of the Hidden Mansion do this. Yuan Zonggao, are you afraid of long history? ”

Yuan Zonggao, the new left attendant of the ministry, stood up: "Your Majesty has inherited the unification by the edict, and has the ambition to clarify the interior and rebuild the Ming Dynasty, how can there be no judgment in the history of Youyouqing?" What is there to fear! ”

He looked at Zhu Houxi very excitedly.

The reminder that day "no old ministers, no meritorious ministers, and no admonishing ministers", how could he think that the Son of Heaven would use it in this way?

This became his weapon to block Yang Tinghe and continue to persuade!

In front of the banner of loyalty or disloyalty, no matter how old, how meritorious, and desperately admonished, it is meaningless.

The Son of Heaven wants loyal ministers!

What's more, there is also a banner of the world's great gifts that focuses on the well-being of the people?

Yuan Zonggao didn't need to say a word today, and His Majesty didn't let him say it.

When he was promoted to the left attendant of the ministry, Huang Jin, who delivered the decree, brought His Majesty's message: "When the court meeting, I will come by myself." ”

Yuan Zonggao, who has not yet entered the cabinet, His Majesty does not want him to be difficult to do among the ministers in the future.

This kind of caring and earnest meaning, Yuan Zonggao was moved and admired in his heart.

How could he have thought that there was no need for endless quarrels between monarchs and ministers, a word of loyalty, a naked analysis of the great gift, and no one could have two words?

The elaboration of the great gifts of the world is a step for everyone.

But His Majesty can only end up this time in person, and the future court should be His Majesty's loyal ministers charging for it.

The Son of Heaven can only end up in person in matters related to his legal imperial power!

Zhu Houxi finally put an end to this matter: "Then this matter is over, and Yuan Zonggao will be promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the Daxing Emperor's honorable notes and other ceremonial notes will be presented one by one as soon as possible." The matter of honoring my father and sealing my mother is at the back, but I just arrange it first. But whether or not to receive the will is the fundamental question. The second topic is to talk about the dismissal of the abusing officials and the army in the edict of enthronement. ”

Yang Tinghe, who stood up from the steps, cheered up, and was just about to announce his specific strategy for the abolition of the abusive officials and soldiers, when His Majesty asked Huang Jin to hand over the box he was carrying.

After opening the box, Zhu Houxi took out a booklet: "After preliminary estimates, the number of officials and soldiers, flag schools, and military craftsmen in Beijing is about 120,000 to 150,000, which can save about 1 million stone of food every year. This figure has been accumulated over many years, and I have checked the accounts in the past few days as I have already promised in the preparation of this enthronement edict. ”

Then came the show time as an accountant, and many historical figures blurted out of his mouth without stagnation.

Yang Tinghe, who was holding back in place, could only stare at his eyes getting bigger and bigger.

Is he just checking the accounts to check this matter? That's really nothing to say: I really am for the Ming Dynasty and preparing for good governance!

There is also an accurate memory of the amount of money and grain spent in the past few years!

Yan Song's pen did not stop, and from time to time he looked up at the young emperor: for today, how long has he been practicing?

After trekking through mountains and rivers to the Forbidden City, all civil and military officials have seen an emperor who must not be regarded as his age by appearance.

"One hundred and twenty thousand!" Zhu Houxi finally said awe-inspiringly, "Within this year, there are more than 120,000 people who can be laid off first!" ”

The faces of the generals who were still excited just now stiffened, but they were not inferior to their voices at the same time inside and outside the West Corner Gate.

The ministers shouted in unison: "Your Majesty Shengming! ”

Escorted out of Zuo Shunmen, Mao Cheng listened to those familiar voices in the distance, and his eyes went dark.

Shengming?

Are you mocking me?
