Chapter 159, the secret box is straight

I didn't stay up this day, and I was on time.

But everyone's heads are confused, and the consequences of the impact of new things.

In the straight room of the Liuke Corridor outside the Chengtian Gate, the officials who had not yet gotten off work only saw them walking out with a frown one by one.

There is no polite chat with each other, everyone is preoccupied.

This large group of people walked there, and a few words popped into the minds of the petty officials: lost souls.

Bad dish!

As soon as the new criminal department Shangshu arrived, I didn't know what happened in the palace!

They were right, something was wrong.

The curtain of the rules that runs on the world of Daming is now brewing again behind the scenes to be arranged into a new stage, waiting for this curtain to be revealed.

The eighteen important ministers plus Zhang Bi understood a little more in the afternoon: this new stage is not to bring down the entire gentry class. But the smart ones should see that they still have the greatest advantage to adapt to the new rules and change into a new group.

Those who do not know the situation will be reduced to ashes, making more space to achieve what His Majesty said: to give more people a way out, and the people must be able to see hope.

This still does not solve the fundamental problem of solidification after a hundred years, so His Majesty finally pointed to the plaque in the imperial study.

That's driven by interests, with interests as clues.

Drive the nobles, drive the gentry who can see through the situation, drive the people who have a lot of hope.

Zhu Houxi knew that they couldn't fully see through it yet.

Nor can they be allowed to see through it completely.

Just as they thought that they were in a hurry to try out the new law in Guangdong, he just used Guangdong as an example to let more smart people see the situation clearly and push the new law to the first stage.

So Zhu Houxi asked them to think more first, and he himself continued to learn more.

That Royal Ten Thousand Law Pavilion, how did they know that the emperor who was ready to "miscellaneous" knowledge was planning a future university?

Thirty years in the east of the river, thirty years in the west of the river.

The first step was to liberate the people from forced labor and release more agricultural productivity to feed them. Therefore, in the three-year national policy set by the national policy meeting, there are floods and water conservancy surveys.

The second step can only be stimulated by the largest market within the Ming Dynasty: government procurement, laying the foundation for the transformation of handicrafts into industry and small commerce into a prosperous market.

The third step is to deal with this internal market, which is increasingly in demand for money, reform the currency, and thoroughly lay a unified fiscal and taxation system.

In this process, he had another battlefield: starting from the skin of Confucianism, to introducing real scientific ideas, and finally changing the way of education and upward mobility.

Who said that the law can only be changed once?

There is still a long way to go, and there are only three middle-aged and elderly artists and poets in the current university predecessor.

Tang Bohu, Zhu Zhishan, and Wen Zhengming stood in front of Zhu Houxi in a row.

"If you don't know what position this Royal Ten Thousand Law Pavilion enshrines for the time being, you might as well understand it as a walk in the imperial study, or a bachelor in another Hanlin Academy." Zhu Houxi looked at them with a smile, "It's all on my orders." All three of you have a bumpy journey, so don't keep taking the exams. The talent is outstanding, and I have given the same Jinshi background. It's just that none of you are officials in the imperial court, you only serve as royal offerings, and you are supported by the silver of the Emperor's Village. ”

The three of them were overjoyed at first, and then they were puzzled when they heard that they were not serving as officials in the imperial court.

Wen Zhengming asked worriedly: "Your Majesty, I don't know how this royal offering is sent on weekdays?" ”

"There is a dispatch now, but you have just arrived in Beijing, and you will rest for a few days." Zhu Houxi looked at Wen Zhengming very interestingly, "I heard that Jiangnan is talking, the Wen family has a daughter, why don't you be a national abbot?" ”

“…… The little girl has a rough appearance, and it is difficult to get into the elegant hall. ”

The most handsome of the three was Wen Zhengming, no wonder King Ning once wanted to recruit him as his son-in-law.

"Because it has spread widely, I heard that the local government is ready to include your daughter in the roster of show girls." Zhu Houxi said another piece of news that made his eyes black.

He went to Beijing with Li Chonghe, who received the news, in February, and he didn't know about it yet.

Although he didn't want to get married this year, he was called to Beijing before he had time to discuss marriage for his daughter.

"Let it be the will of God."

Wen Zhengming looked at him, aren't you the sky?

“…… Your Majesty, since it will be sent in a few days, and the ministers who are born with His Majesty are also Jinshi, they should do their best to prepare first. Zhu Yunming opened his mouth.

Zhu Houxi thought about it and said: "If you talk about preparation, you should first relax, visit the West Garden, recite poems and paint, and activate your talents." This dispatch is also to let you go south to Guangdong, travel the mountains and rivers, and leave your sights and stories with poems, texts and paintings. Rest assured, there are arrangements for the accompanying captain and ministers along the way, which will be comfortable, and the fatigue of the boat and car will be avoided as much as possible. ”

Three Talents: ???

……

The three talented people went to Guangdong to act as a humanoid camera, making the best use of things.

In the Royal Wanfa Museum, the Engraving Bureau is also preparing.

It's all about spending money, but fortunately, the money copied out since he ascended the throne is enough for the time being.

And after Wei Bin's side arranged it from the first month, the final news of the lords inside and outside the capital also returned.

In addition to the remaining imperial stores and official stores, the dry shares were merged into the Huangming Ji at a discount, and more or less some silver money was also taken to buy shares.

Zhu Houxi doesn't care if they have any business to hide, the framework is set up, and the future differentiation and national law are there.

At this time, there is one person in the senior class who is still studying, and he is going to take a leave of absence.

In the Qianqing Palace, Wang Shouren's face was full of sorrow.

Zhu Houxi sighed lightly: "Announcing that you entered Beijing actually made you miss the last meeting with your father." Mr. Longshan served as the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Officials, and worked hard all his life. Last year, someone asked you to be the new earl, this earl, posthumously give Ling Zun, and another junior is the deputy of Jinyi Wei. ”

“…… Thank you for your grace. Wang Shouren choked up and bowed.

"Let's go to Ding Wei and give a good lecture." Zhu Houxi stared at him, "Mr. Knowledge, I am still studying." Heaven is difficult to be poor, but conscience is what everyone in the world should pursue. I know that Mr. has the heart to preach knowledge, but Mr. has more than just knowledge. If the children and nephews in the family have talents in the art of war, Mr. will teach them carefully. In the future, this new uncle can be passed on. ”

Wang Shouren's heart was shocked, he looked up at the emperor, and then kowtowed again to thank him.

The meaning of this sentence shouted by the gentleman in private is different.

Thinking that he was ordered by him as soon as he arrived in Beijing, thinking that he elected himself into the imperial study by letting himself debate the scriptures, and then participated in the aircraft service instead of Yang Yiqing.

Let yourself stay in the civil official sequence is only one step away from a Shangshu, but now he still leaves the possibility of a hereditary earl to the Wang family.

After Zhu Houxi asked him to get up, he sighed: "The matter of learning is too widely implicated, but I believe that the people who read the world will slowly change their concepts." Wang Qing is gone, and I have something to give. ”

Wang Shouren now understood what His Majesty meant.

His Majesty also felt that science was no longer appropriate, but it was not easy for Xinxue to enter the classroom.

But today, the grace of posthumously gifting his father Xinjian Uncle and Yin Yi as the deputy of Jinyi Wei Qianhu came out, and everyone knew the weight of Wang Shouren in His Majesty's mind.

What else to give?

Wang Shouren only saw Huang Jin holding a plate with a box on it. There is a lock on the box and two keys next to it. Next to it, there is a small printing box.

He was shocked in his heart, remembering the idle medal that went south with Liang Chu at that time.

Zhu Houxi said to him: "This seal is written by Zhu Yunming, and I will give this seal to you." This box has a copper lock, and only this copper key is two. I keep a handful, you keep a handful. The "Draft of the Ming Fiscal and Taxation System", after returning to his hometown, what he has seen and heard about the affairs of the Guandi newspaper, and even daily trivial matters, you can directly enter the palace with this box. ”

"Your Majesty...... This ......"

Wang Shouren never expected to get such a set of things.

It's not a silver medal, but it's clearly closer.

With Liang Chu's pearl and jade in front, who doesn't know that this silver medal may be used for other purposes in the future?

And although Wang Shouren needs to leave the court for three years, if there is this channel that directly presents to the emperor, who can underestimate him?

Zhu Houxi said with a smile: "You participate in the national policy, how important and confidential are many major events?" The rest of the ministers of national policy can face the saint at any time, and the news of the funeral suddenly spreads in your home, so this law is practiced. This is the case if the minister of state is retired or encounters a similar situation. You are just the first person to set a precedent, and the ministers will not criticize. ”

Wang Shouren came to resign from His Majesty and thanked Sanen.

"Just know the destiny of heaven, take good care of your body, and the days ahead are still very long."

At the gate of the Qianqing Palace, he watched Wang Shouren leave with the box, key and seal, and finally sighed leisurely, frowning a little.

Speaking of which, this head was opened by Yang Tinghe. When he was the first assistant, he resolutely returned to his hometown to guard the system for three years, which made Liang Chu the first assistant for three years.

The head of the hall is worried about abiding by the system and maintaining the etiquette, and then everyone naturally can't leave a handle.

But just after the national policy meeting, he expressed his attitude of "monarchs and ministers are united", and suddenly left one.

Why is the center of the court so unstable?

In this way, there is one less bachelor in the imperial study, and who will temporarily participate in the national policy meeting on behalf of Yang Yiqing has become a new problem.

……

The direction of the new law proposed by the emperor was so bold that the counselors who had expressed their stance really did not dare to easily leak the news outside.

You can change the law conservatively, or even be forced to change the law, but the counselors are "bent on cutting the interests of the scholars", which really makes them a little panicked.

If you don't agree on a proper plan and steps, I'm afraid that as soon as the news leaks out, countless people will try to expose them and drive them away: this is a game within the rules, and you must find a way to struggle first.

The emperor saw that the resistance was too great, so maybe he reconciled it?

Jiang Mian continued to look at the booklet in the study, frowning and thinking.

They are allowed to bring it back and study it carefully, but the dire consequences of the leak are known to everyone.

So after Jiang Mian went home, he studied on his own behind closed doors.

There was a knock on the door outside, and he put the booklet in the drawer before he walked to the door and opened the door: "What's the matter?" ”

"Master, a letter from Guangdong."

Jiang Mian took the letter in his hand, walked out of the study and looked at it under the porch, and only after reading it did he contemplate for a while.

"You write back first, so that they don't have to worry and do what they have to do. After I finished writing the letter, I will pick up the letter I wrote and send it to Nanjing. ”

With that, he went back to his room and spread out the paper.

The object of his letter was his elder brother Jiang Sheng, who now made up the Nanjing Hubu Shangshu.

Jiang Sheng's supplement to Nanjing's household book is not Jiang Mian's credit, but his qualifications are enough.

In the twenty-third year of Chenghua, Jiang Mian and Jiang Sheng were admitted to the Jinshi at the same time, which was a very sensational event, after all, they were brothers.

Before Li Chongsi entered Beijing, Jiang Sheng had already served as the magistrate of Nanhai County, Guangdong, the imperial history of Nanjing, and the right attendant of Nanjing's household department.

Today, one of the two brothers is Ge Lao, and the other is Nanjing Hubu Shangshu, which is unimaginable, and now the criticism is very great.

In the letter Jiang Mian wrote to Jiang Sheng, he bluntly said that it was best for him to resign, and it was best to deal with the relationship he formed when he served as the magistrate of Nanhai, Guangdong, and finally presided over all the affairs of the family after returning to his hometown Guangxi.

He didn't mention more, he believed that Jiang Sheng could understand.

Jiang Mian never gave birth to a son in his early years, and his eldest son was inherited from Jiang Sheng's name.

There are some people in Guangdong who are brewing something through various relationships, and now the situation has changed.

There will be some key information in hand, and when Jiang Sheng returns to his hometown and passes by, he should visit Zhang Fujing and Liang Chu, and he should have another good fate.

He quickly wrote the letter, handed it to his housekeeper, and then said, "You go to the Gu Mansion again and invite Gu Jiu and the Mansion to talk." ”

Wang Shouren returned to his hometown to worry, and there were many things that he had to use his strength.

Gu Dingchen and Yan Song are in the same subject, and they are both students of Yang Tinghe.

Now that Yang Tinghe can't leave, it's best to repair the relationship - let his son face the risk of civil upheaval, Yang Tinghe should also guess who is behind it, right?

Among the six cabinet ministers, Yang Tinghe is closer to Shi Xuan and Mao Ji. Although Fei Hong and Yang Tinghe had some festivals, it was impossible to completely fall to the emperor after all. He has been away from the court for too long, and he still needs to accumulate again.

In addition to supporting Sun Jiao a little more, Jiang Mian is naturally a more worthy person.

These relationships are not difficult to sort out, so recommend another student of Yang Tinghe to enter the imperial study.

After all, the chief is Yan Song, and Jiang Mian understands Yan Song very well.

Moreover, Gu Dingchen has been staying in the Hanlin Academy, he doesn't know the soldiers, and he can't sit on the chair of the national policy meeting.

This person who temporarily participated in the national policy meeting on behalf of Yang Yiqing...... Jiang Mian thought about what kind of way was actually the most in line with the emperor's needs.

Thinking of the deafening shouts from the Qianqing Palace on the day His Majesty "pacified" the relatives, Jiang Mian took out the booklet again.

In the future, such a big fight, Jingying is too important to the emperor.

There is only one Cui Yuan, I'm afraid it's not enough.

But in what name?

Why those people in Guangdong dare to be so bold, maybe Your Majesty knows very well. Jinyi Wei Lingnan has been walking over there, and the sentence "acting" that day ...... The good impression left in the lobby of the criminal department is only afraid that it has been worn out a lot.

Jiang Mian smiled bitterly and began to write a new letter in a dignified manner.

"Please Associate Jingying Rongzheng Participate in the National Policy Meeting".

Yan Song was also working hard, but the direction of his force was more specific.

"It's a blessing that you escaped this time! This kind of accounting method I teach you must be studied intensively! Guangdong City is very important, don't worry about the emperor Ming Ji sea trade is the industry of His Majesty and his relatives, Your Majesty is to make rules. Set rules for Xun Qi and set rules for the court! ”

Sitting in the small flower hall of his house was a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and a majestic face, and he nodded again and again: "The teacher mentions, I will keep it in mind." It's just that the promotion of this city is so important now, can I really be promoted? ”

Yan Song smiled: "You don't have to worry about this." From the five products, the ministry can be pushed. Wen Wei, when you were the magistrate of Huating, you were honest and pragmatic, and the officials had a record. Last year, I had to be the chief of the imperial study, and you were promoted from Huating Zhixian to the head of the household department, but you escaped the disaster of killing officials in the southeast. If you don't die, there will be a blessing in the future, you are already the sixth product, this time it must be you. ”

The focus of Guangdong's new law in the next step is in this city, Yang Ting and they have to express their position first, and the most positive one has to be Wang Qiong.

Recommend his Yan Song's students, why not? What's more, Nie Bao has only been a junior for six years and belongs to a newcomer. In addition, when he was in Huating as the magistrate of the county, he was honest and honest, and his official reputation was good.

Yan Song also believed in Nie Bao's talent and courage: I heard that he had fought against the rogue with an iron rod himself eight years ago.

Three days later, in the imperial study, after the routine study and discussion of the elderly study class for an hour, Yan Song took a few letters and went to Zhu Houxi with Zhang Bi.

"University scholar Jiang Mian please participate in the national policy meeting as the assistant Jingying Rongzheng, this matter needs to be decided by His Majesty, whether the cabinet vote is proposed to be discussed at the national policy meeting."

Zhu Houxi nodded: "Accurate." ”

"Wang Xian, the secretary of the Ministry of War, asked to summon the right deputy imperial envoy and governor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate Yansui Yao Yi to return to Beijing, and promote the right capital of the Imperial History of the Imperial Court of the Imperial Court to assist the Beijing camp Rongzheng."

Zhu Houxi looked at him, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Accurate." ”

"The Ministry of Officials pushed, and Nie Bao, the head of the Ministry of Households, was promoted to the position of Guangdong City, and the cabinet vote was intended to be acceptable."

"Exactly."

"For the lack of bachelors in the imperial study, Tingtui takes Zuo Chunfang, Zuo Yude, and Gu Dingchen, the attendant of Hanlin Academy, as the positive, and Zhai Luan of the Criminal Department as the accompaniment, please ask Your Majesty to make a holy judgment."

"It's all your same family, right?"

Yan Song replied calmly: "Yes." ”

Zhu Houxi smiled and said, "Gu Dingchen." Zhai Luan made meritorious contributions to the south with Zhang Zilin last year, so he continued to go to the local area to experience it, and went to Guangdong to be the deputy envoy of the inspection and supervise the study of politics. ”

"Yes."

The fifth grade has been promoted to the fourth grade, which is very different.

And this Guangdong education, in the next few years, it will be quite crucial: local scholars, fame and fame are in the hands of learning. If there is a lawlessness that has been revoked, tsk......

Zhu Houxi felt the new changes.

Although the middle-aged and elderly study class still did not come up with any results, after expressing their attitude, they were a lot more sensible.

This is probably self-persuasion.

Push a late Ming Dynasty text seedling "Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, I Changed My Life Against the Sky": I have no shortcomings, only good wealth. [Emperor Chongzhen said with a smile]: Thousands of merits, I let people comment, and you can know everything. Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty has been reborn, and in this life, I have no relationship with the crooked neck tree!
