Chapter 8 I became interested in blacksmith work
When Cui Chengxiu heard this, his face also turned red.
"Your Majesty, the ministers have been wronged!"
"All the princes are bright and fair, and their sleeves are breezy, how can they be afraid of such a method of peeling and filling the grass."
"It's just time, it's easy!"
"Such methods are really not suitable for the present situation, so they are filled with righteous indignation and come out to admonish."
"Your Majesty, please think twice!"
When the other ministers saw this, they also came out.
Huang Li was very affectionate and sincere, and he was the first to say.
"Your Majesty, please think twice!"
Other ministers followed.
"Your Majesty, please think twice!"
"Your Majesty, please think twice!"
"Your Majesty, please think twice!"
Zhu Youxiao looked at the Manchu Dynasty civil and military with an embarrassed face, and only felt that this matter was really ironic.
But there was no mockery on his face.
He just looked embarrassed.
"The princes are dedicated to the public, which is really moving!
"It's just that I rule the world with filial piety, don't you even want this filial piety?"
As soon as this sentence came out, the Manchu Dynasty was so embarrassed that his face was flushed.
Now the eunuchs are so cruel, and the ministers who were arrested and put in the edict prison did not come out with all their beards and tails.
If Zhu Youxiao reverted to the method of peeling and filling the grass, then how would they live?
What's more, this matter does not mean that only the ministers of the Donglin family are opposed.
This is not?
Aren't the eunuch ministers allowed to oppose it too?
Speaking of which, the ministers of the eunuch party are probably a little more excited.
But the problem is that Zhu Youxiao's filial piety occupies the moral high ground.
They want to oppose it, but there are no tenable arguments.
After a while, I heard Zhu Youxiao above sigh.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you are going to put me in a situation of unfilial piety!"
"In this case, for the sake of all of you Aiqing, for the sake of the common people in the world, then I will not be filial to it once!"
"The method of peeling and filling the grass will be discussed later."
"What do you think?"
When the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty heard this, a big stone in their hearts fell to the ground.
Under the leadership of Huang Liji, the first assistant of the cabinet, all the ministers saluted in unison.
"Your Majesty is benevolent!"
Zhu Youxiao actually showed a three-point mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, and said, "It's been a long time since I've heard from the ministers about my benevolence. ”
The ministers only felt that this majesty, since the deceitful corpse, was more difficult than before.
Although it was difficult to entangle before, it is not so sharp.
Isn't that a sharp edge?
After all, this Zhu Youxiao is ready to unload the table, where is there time to talk to them.
But they were also a little depressed, why Zhu Youxiao was so good at talking this time.
The ministers advised him to stop using this method of peeling and filling the grass, and he really listened.
Zhu Youxiao doesn't look like an emperor who cherishes his courtiers so much!
Zhu Youxiao saw the expressions of the ministers, and had already guessed what they were thinking on the spot.
He certainly wasn't that good at talking.
The reason why he threw out this method of peeling and filling the grass was not to implement the method of peeling and filling the grass at all.
If this rule is really implemented, then the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will be counted as one, and they will all be pulled out to peel and fill the grass, and there will definitely be no mistake.
What's more, even if he really wants to follow the method of peeling the skin and filling the grass now, it is nothing more than another way to persecute the people and eliminate dissent for the eunuchs and the ministers who oppose the eunuchs.
All the things in the court and all the party strife are nothing more than four words: mutual compromise.
Only mutual compromise can get things done, and if you want to compromise with each other, you must have an exchange of interests.
Zhu Youxiao didn't have many things in his hands that could be exchanged for benefits, so he had to artificially create something that could be exchanged with the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.
This thing is the method he just said to use Zhu Yuanzhang's name to peel the skin and fill the grass.
It was enough to compromise with him, and what was left was what this Manchu civil and military should give him.
"For the sake of the ministers, I have been saddled with the name of unfilial piety, which makes me feel very depressed in my heart."
"When I first woke up, he told me that I had to keep my mood up."
"In this way, I can live a long life, and I feel that I am deeply convinced of the words of the Imperial Doctor."
When the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty heard this, they all understood in their hearts.
This Zhu Youxiao said nicely, but in fact, he just wanted something.
But the ministers all had embarrassed expressions on their faces.
After all, Zhu Youxiao had just built two new halls in the first two years.
His two halls consumed four or five hundred thousand silver, and it can be said that he directly took out half of the tax balance of the entire Ming Dynasty for a year.
Now the Ming Dynasty can't even pay the army salaries in the frontier.
If Zhu Youxiao still wanted to continue to build the main hall, they wouldn't have that ability now.
Huang Liji, the first assistant of the cabinet, turned his head and glanced at Li Qiyuan, the head of the household department.
Li Qiyuan understood instantly, but there was a look of embarrassment on his face.
It's not a good job.
"Your Majesty, this hall must not be built again, and now the silver taels in your hand are only as many as 500,000 taels, but these silver taels are useful, and they are mainly handed over to the border army as food."
"If we continue to build it, we will not be able to get the food and salary of the armies on both sides, and there will definitely be a big incident at that time."
"If there is chaos in the surrounding area and Jiannu enters the Central Plains, then our Ming Dynasty will be overturned."
Of course, Zhu Youxiao knew about this, but now there is no commercial tax, and he can't collect much food.
The court can have food and salary in its hands, it is really a joke.
"Presumptuous!"
"Before I could speak, you came out to object, could it be that you are dissatisfied with me?"
Li Qiyuan felt very scared in his heart.
It was as if he had seen the edict beckoning to him.
He wanted to retreat into the ranks of ministers, but the existing circumstances did not allow him to do so.
"Your Majesty, everything the minister said is the truth, if Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can send someone to the household department to investigate."
Zhu Youxiao looked at this Li Qiyuan steadily, but he was afraid when he saw this Li Qiyuan, but he did not flinch.
Zhu Youxiao nodded secretly, this Li Qiyuan is still somewhat responsible.
But if you count according to this history, he should die of illness in a few years.
"That's it!"
"Since Li Shangshu is so insistent, it's okay if this hall is not built."
"It's just ........."
The ministers were also frightened by this Zhu Youzhen.
Huang Liji almost gritted his teeth and said.
"Your Majesty, as long as the main hall is not built, then the ministers will definitely do their best to be lenient!"
Zhu Youxiao finally showed a smile on his face.
He tossed and turned for so long, and now his goal was finally achieved.
"Then it won't be difficult for you, it's just that I've been less interested in this carpentry lately, and I've been more interested in some blacksmiths."
"I heard that there are a lot of gunsmiths in the Ministry of Industry, and they can send a thousand families to come to my leopard house to listen, and help me to make some new things."
"What do you think?"
