Chapter 290: Lonely Anger
Jiang Xinghuo was busy deploying the Inner Court War Bureau with Zheng He, and deploying military craftsmen with Zhu Gaoxu to make manned hot air balloons.
And Zhu Di was not idle here, first summoned his big pen Xie Jin in the Chengtian Palace, and asked him to arrange the most conspicuous position in the "Di Bao" to write about the "Heavenly Principles of Rain".
Zhu Di wanted to capture the old man and said: "During this time, I still have to revise the "Record of Emperor Taizu Gao", do you have the energy?" ”
"Your Majesty, rest assured, this matter will be arranged by the minister himself, and he will never make a mistake." Xie Jin patted his chest and reassured.
Zhu Di snorted and pondered for a moment before saying, "I believe in your ability, and I look forward to you bringing me back good news." ”
"The minister will live up to His Majesty's expectations."
"Also, if you encounter trouble, even if you go to the national teacher to discuss, I don't care." Zhu Di added.
Zhu Di's meaning is very clear, he said, "I don't care", it's not that he really doesn't care, but shows his attitude, this matter is related to the change of law, return to the national teacher, you give me honesty, write as instructed, don't engage in those Spring and Autumn penmanship that you don't have, otherwise you will be punished.
Xie Jin agreed with a smile on his face, and then withdrew.
Zhu Di looked at Xie Jin, who disappeared at the entrance of the hall, and suddenly snorted softly.
At the beginning, when he decided to set up a cabinet, he really felt that it was nothing—because the cabinet was just a tool to assist him in approving and classifying, and only had the power to divide and classify the pieces, but did not have the power to approve the pieces, but only separated the pieces of different regions, types, and degrees of importance.
In other words, a dog under imperial power.
Dogs, how can they disobey their masters.
The result? In the future prophesied by the national teacher, the cabinet dog somehow suddenly rode on the head of the master!
"I'm not a phase, but I'm also humming."
However, as the emperor, Zhu Di's troubles are obviously not limited to the cabinet that is still only in its infancy.
Zhu Di also has a headache about the issue of Li Chu...... He found that his sons didn't seem to be easy to fool.
According to the results of Jin Ou's lot, Zhu Gaoxu was originally going to be sent to Beizhili.
But now, we have to wait for Jiang Xinghuo to teach me the literacy method and build the shelf of the tax guard, after all, Zhu Di promised Zhu Gaoxu to let him command the tax guard.
At the same time, the tax guards will also become a model unit for the new firearms army.
So Zhu Gaoxu still has to stay in Nanjing City for a while.
Zhu Di also had some considerations about whether to let Zhu Gaoxu participate in the expedition to Annan.
Zhu Gaoxu now has ambitions and continues to grow, and if he continues to do so, sooner or later he will become a loose horse.
But then again, although Zhu Gaoxu's personality is very similar to himself, he is more irritable, which also means that there are weaknesses and good checks and balances.
However, the eldest son, Zhu Gaochi, not only presided over the administration of the north during the Battle of Jingyan, but also had great authority in the civil service system of the north, and now in the past few months in the capital to coordinate government affairs, Zhu Gaochi's qualifications have become more and more profound.
In addition, Zhu Gaochu is very popular among the military ministers, correspondingly, in order to fight against the military ministers, Zhu Gaochi's prestige among the civil ministers is increasing, and now even Zhu Di, the emperor, feels that he can't hold him in terms of governance.
Zhu Di, after all, is not Zhu Yuanzhang; Zhu Gaochi is not Zhu Biao.
Zhu Di, who has just ascended to the throne and enjoys the supremacy brought by imperial power, and is in the prime of life, cannot be unsuspecting of his sons.
"I hope these two boys will never have a backbone." Zhu Di muttered, his mind complicated and indescribable.
Then Zhu Di sat on the dragon chair and fell into a short silence.
There are many things to do today, such as preparing to be met by the martial artists in the court, including the old brothers of Yan Jun and many Hongwu founding nobles.
In addition, he also has to focus on the things entrusted to him by the queen and find a wishful husband for her sister Xu Miaojin.
Thinking of these trivial and bad things, Zhu Di sighed, opened his eyes in a complicated mood, raised his left hand, and rubbed the corners of his forehead.
Of course, the world will not stop exercising just because Zhu Di is in a bad mood.
This is to say that with Jiang Xinghuo's release from prison and the change of the law, all forces and characters have their own plans, and things are obviously not carried out in a single line, but have become more and more complicated.
However, people have distant relatives, and things have priorities.
A few flowers bloom, first focus on the branch in front of you.
Zhu Di sent Xie Jin, and when it was not yet time to feast on the noble and military ministers in the evening, he was ready to find something to do by himself.
Well, Zhu Di now understands his father Zhu Yuanzhang more and more.
When a man reaches middle age, he really needs to have a serious thing to say to fill his time.
As long as you do this, you can get rid of all kinds of trivial things in parents without distractions.
- This matter of the emperor is a criticism.
This twist and turn was not approved by the eldest prince Zhu Gaochi and the cabinet members.
It's a dense fold.
Zhu Di quietly tried the secret folding system taught to him by Jiang Xinghuo, but the scope was not large, but the senior officials in Nanjing City first carried out a small-scale experiment.
The officials at the level of the secret folding system, in the Wenchen, are the six Shangshu, Shilang, and Jiuqing; In the military ministers, he is the prince and the noble, as well as the commander of the real power.
Of course, because the secret folding system has just been tried out, and the senior officials have not yet figured out the door, the military ministers regard the matter of writing the secret fold as fierce as a tiger, and the civil servants do not dare to talk nonsense, so the secret folds handed over are not much.
Zhu Di didn't spend much effort, so he easily reviewed it.
"Huh?"
Zhu Di looked at the last secret fold in his hand and raised his eyebrows.
This secret fold was handed over by Song Li, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites.
In the Ministry of Rites, the chief official was Shangshu Li Zhigang, and the auxiliary officials turned out to be two old men.
Dong Lun, the left waiter, is the president of the previous record of "Emperor Taizu Gao", when Jingqing was assassinated, he had already returned to his hometown and went to Shi.
The right waiter Wang Jing, somewhat similar to Zhuo Jing, is sixty-six this year, is a great writer, the articles written are profound and vigorous, and the essence of the ancient literary school is praised.
The position of Dong Lun, the left waiter, was not as expected by most officials, and was promoted by Zhuo Jing, the original right waiter of the household department, to be filled by half a level, but the right waiter Wang Jing of the headquarters was made up As for the right waiter vacated by Wang Jing, it was also digested internally, and after the competition of all parties, Zhu Di finally appointed Song Lilai, who was a full-time member of the Ministry of Rites and Rites.
Song Li is forty-three years old this year, a capable bureaucrat, and a bureaucrat who wants to secure his position as a waiter, or even go further.
He was also the first senior official to express his support for Zhu Di's reform of the law and was willing to be a pawn of the reform.
But the secret fold of this statement is somewhat strange.
In Song Li's secret fold, he first expressed his attitude, grateful to the emperor for promoting him to be the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and said that he absolutely supported the emperor to change the law and restore the Ming Dynasty, but there was a little small, immature suggestion, I hope the emperor will listen to it.
Next, Song Li's main point of view is the "Lonely Anger Chapter" in "Han Feizi".
"When the person who is good at doing things, then he will use it externally and internally."
"If the princes are not responsible, then they should not do anything, so the enemy country will sue for it; If the officials are not because of it, the industry will not enter, so the ministers will use it; If Langzhong is not because of it, he will not be close to the Lord, so he will hide it left and right; If the bachelor is not because of it, then the bachelor is humble and humble, so the bachelor talks about it. ”
"These four helpers, the reason why the evil minister pretends to be himself. The important person cannot be loyal to the lord and enter his enemy, and the lord of the man cannot help the four and observe his ministers, so the more the lord of the man is more disadvantaged and the minister is heavier. ”
This is very interesting, Song Li wants to hint at the emperor's content, that is, it is good to change the law, but you have to guard against "evil ministers" usurping your power by changing the law!
And Song Li's quotation of classics, the best thing is that the so-called "four helps", except for bachelors, can correspond to each of them, but they are not explicitly stated.
What does it mean that the princes have to rely on the evil ministers? Isn't this the second prince Zhu Gaoxu?
What about the hundred officials? Naturally, it is Rongguo Gong Yao Guangxiao, Tobe Shangshu Xia Yuanji and others.
Lang Zhong (originally referring to the palace corridor, referring to the guards), refers to Zheng He.
And these are not the end of Song Li's operation, Song Li gave Zhu Di an idea, how can he ensure that the law change is carried out in the hands of loyal ministers, not evil ministers?
Your Majesty, don't panic!
I am a loyal servant!
I am a loyal servant that you can absolutely trust when you pick it up!
I'll give you an undercover agent to infiltrate the Changer!
Looking at Song Li's secret fold, Zhu Di couldn't cry or laugh.
Song Li, Zhu Di knows, since he was a child, he is smart and knowledgeable, studious and ambitious, sensitive, proficient in the study of river canals and water conservancy, belongs to a technical bureaucrat, and his character is very good, quite honest.
Compared with his immediate boss Li Zhigang, in fact, the name should be reversed.
But the problem is that when people reach a certain position, their mood and vision are destined to be different.
If you become a right waiter, you don't want to go further and be a left waiter? became a left waiter, don't want to be a scholar?
And it was precisely because of Song Li's keen practice that he thought that it was indeed feasible to change the law, so he thought of displaying his talent in a higher position.
And following behind someone else's ass obviously can't get more benefits.
Therefore, Song Li simply proposed to the emperor to "go undercover in the Fa Reform Sect".
At first glance, Zhu Di only felt a little absurd, this was not a war, but an undercover agent.
But at a certain moment, Zhu Di remembered what Jiang Xinghuo had just said, "What should be in the war, there is also a public opinion war." ”
Isn't the controversy between the reformers and the conservatives really a life-and-death war?
From the perspective of Zhu Di, the ruler, everything seems to have changed again.
At this moment, Zhu Di was a little shaken.
Zhu Di knocked on the dragon case, and the third prince Zhu Gaosui walked out of the shadows.
"Father."
Zhu Di pondered for a moment and ordered: "Go to Song Li, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, remember, don't let too many people notice." ”
A hint of surprise flashed in Zhu Gaosui's eyes, but he still bowed down.
"Yes, Father!"
PS: There is still one chapter owed for the monthly pass plus more, and it will be paid back early next week.
