Chapter 397: Dare You Only Want to Deal With Me?
Zhu Su didn't expect this at all, the faction of civil officials who favored Hu Weiyong had already been cleaned up by Lao Zhu. Among the civil officials now, the "cabinet" led by Zhu Biao should be in charge, as well as the "eastern Zhejiang" faction that was previously incompatible with Hu Weiyong's party.
Needless to say, the cabinet officials nowadays are mostly just some young officials with little power, and now they can only be regarded as Lao Zhu's mouthpiece at most, and naturally they will not oppose Lao Zhu's intentions.
As for the literati of eastern Zhejiang...... In Zhu Su's impression, most of these people were former Yuan Court officials, and because of the change of dynasty, they naturally became Zhu Ming's courtiers. For the "Huaixi" lineage that followed Lao Zhu from the beginning, they naturally had to be a head shorter.
Because of this, most of these people just follow the rules step by step and mix their days, and they don't dare to oppose Lao Zhu's resolution too directly.
But now, the whispers of these people are so obvious that even he can hear them? Is there anything in this will that affects their vital interests?
Zhu Su secretly turned his head with some curiosity and looked at the civil officials who were clamoring.
With just a few glances, Zhu Su naturally couldn't pay attention to the thoughts of these civil officials. However, he also saw a person who appeared unexpectedly: the old man of Korea, Li Shanzheng, was there, standing at the front of the civil official queue. However, he did not participate in the discussion, and he was also very different from those civil officials. Just standing very deferentially.
Seeing Zhu Su turn his head, he even bowed to Zhu Su very respectfully.
"Why is he here?" Zhu Su was puzzled.
It stands to reason that the Korean government has long since passed old and does not take up any real duties in the DPRK, so there is no need to come to the DPRK meeting.
Like Liu Bowen, the sincerity of Bowen, it was only because of his status as a teacher and friend of Lao Zhu that he was left in Beijing for inquiries at any time.
Could it be that because Hu Weiyong and his party were dismissed, the officials in the DPRK and China were short for a while, and Lao Zhu asked Li Shanchang to come back to take the lead?
Before he could think about it, he listened to the old Zhu of the head of the city: "What, is there anything wrong?" β
The tone is rather unkind.
In all fairness, this award is very frugal. After all, he is his own son, and he only needs the treasury to bear some of the expenses of the vassal king's opening and building of the house, so he will be sent away.
If you wait for Xu Da to escort the army of booty back, then the reward for Xu Da and the army will be the big one among the big heads.
When the hall heard this, it was suddenly quiet, and an official came out of the ranks, and said cautiously: "Back to Your Majesty, the official position of the court is the important weapon of the country. How can it be taken lightly? β
"Your Majesty, do you think about it a little longer......"
"Can't be taken lightly?" Lao Zhu raised his eyebrows. "Our three sons, the fourth one charged into battle and beheaded Naha's generals; The old five strategized to stabilize the situation in Jizhen; Even the second child is also based in Changli and has appeased countless homeless people. β
"That's a little more than the vast majority of you here. If you can't hold an official position with them, can you be with you? β
The officials were stunned when they heard this, and they really couldn't refute this. All those who have made meritorious contributions are greater than military merits, which is also the reason why Huaixi Xungui has always pressed them.
Now these three princes can be regarded as having military exploits. With such a superficial reason, it is really a bit overwhelming.
"Your Majesty." Yang Xunwen, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, came out of the line. "Although the three highnesses have made great contributions, the famous weapons of the court are not used to reward merit."
"According to common sense, those who have made military merits should be rewarded with knighthoods. And those who are officials are for Your Majesty, your herdsmen. We should not only look at the merits, but also pay attention to their talents......"
"Several highnesses are still young, and the ministers believe that it is not appropriate to take on this great responsibility for the time being."
"Knighthood?" But it was Zhu Zhang, who was already unhappy, laughed. "Does Lord Yang want to make this king an uncle, or a marquis?"
"Does this king still want to thank you, Lord Yang?"
"I don't dare. Several highnesses are already kings, so naturally they can't be rewarded. Yang Xunwen obviously came prepared, but smiled and said: "The minister thinks that for the two highnesses King Qin and King Wu, they can be rewarded with gold and silver." You can also be like His Royal Highness King Yan, and give him the martial arts position in the brocade guard......"
Even if Zhu Fan was provocative, Yang Xunwen was also humble. Zhu Fan didn't have much to say when he heard this. After all, the method given by this old man is really good. Civilian and military attachΓ©s, not the same as officials? As far as he Zhu Fan himself is concerned, he still prefers to hang a martial arts position. After all, I can't even hold the pen steadily, so let myself be a right-handed imperial history?
It's better to mix with the big-headed soldiers and worry-free!
Not only Zhu Zhang, for Yang Xunwen's words, everyone praised him as good. But Lao Zhu, who was the leader, was already impatient.
I only heard him speak: "You also know that the official is for our herdsmen." This is true of all of you officials, let alone that they will become vassal kings in the future. β
"They will all be the Lord of Prevention. When it comes to position, it's even more important than you. If you don't understand government affairs, won't you be led by the nose? β
"Whether or not they are in military service, they all want their brothers to have experience in all aspects."
"You may understand our hard work?"
"Let's ask one last question, we want these three children to experience in the court."
"Who among you is for it and who is against?"
The tone is resolute and cannot be disobeyed.
Obviously, this matter is just a formality in the court, and it is already a certainty in Lao Zhu's heart.
At this point, the murmur in the civil official queue also came to an abrupt end. Zhu Su watched coldly from the side for a long time, still confused.
Lao Zhu and these civil officials, on the one hand, want to make their brothers officials; On the other hand, he riveted his strength and did not let his three brothers become officials.
Lao Zhu suddenly wanted to seal them to their real positions, which is understandable. But those civil officials ...... Their brothers are all princes, and they are at the feet of the Son of Heaven, even if they have a real position, they will not do evil under Lao Zhu's nose.
What are these civil officials guarding against with such an attitude?
The hundred officials were silent for a while, thinking that it was because they saw that the emperor was so insistent, and this was not a big deal after all, so they all retreated.
Who knew that Yang Xunwen gritted his teeth, as if he had made up his mind, suddenly knelt down on his knees, kowtowed to Lao Zhu and said, "Your Majesty's intentions, the minister knows." β
"Then please forgive your majesty, the minister has a word, and you must make it clear to your majesty here."
"The two royal highnesses King Qin and King Yan have paid for their official experience, and the ministers think that there is nothing to do."
"His Royal Highness King Wu, this time out of Jizhen, although there are one or two minor skills, there are also five major sins."
"You must not be paid for the duty of the prince of the country to sacrifice wine!"
After speaking, the five bodies fell to the ground and no longer spoke.
Zhu Su was stunned when he heard this. The Five Great Sins?
Where did I provoke these officials, dare to love these people riveting their strength, but in fact they just want to deal with me?
