Chapter 36 What is Relative Authority? (Please follow up!) )
"Xiao Zhu, let me ask you."
"How do you have a relationship with the eunuchs around you?"
Before Zhu Zhanji could calm down from the fear under the gaze of these three pairs of eyes, Ji Boying's question came.
'Xiao Zhu? ’
Da Zhu's son is Xiao Zhu?
When he realized that he was shouting at himself, Zhu Zhanji paused, and just wanted to speak.
"Zhanji, when the immortal master asks, there must be no half-nonsense, otherwise I will never spare it!"
Old Zhu Di's voice was like frost, which made Zhu Zhanji's 'general' to his mouth swallow back to his stomach instantly.
"Immortal Master, the relationship is very good."
Ji Boying glanced at Zhu Zhanji, it's no wonder that this relationship is not good.
Zhu Zhanji, Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty, is in the forefront of cultural governance and martial arts, and there are few negative evaluations among the sixteen emperors of the Ming Dynasty, but there is only one thing that has been infinitely amplified by later generations, that is, playing crickets, and is nicknamed the son of crickets.
And in this deep palace, who can Zhu Zhanji play with crickets?
He is an imperial grandson, and the later Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he can't go to the people every once in a while to be with that group of Wuling teenagers, after all, TV series are nonsense, Zhu Zhanji, as the imperial grandson, the prince of the country, has a system of etiquette in front, and there must be all-round protection wherever he goes.
The people who play with him on weekdays are all eunuchs in the palace.
When Lao Zhu heard the words 'the relationship is very good', his face instantly darkened, but he didn't have a seizure, and he still listened silently.
"I'll ask you again, if for some external reasons, you need to cultivate a force to help you, who will you choose?"
Ji Boying took a sip of coffee.
This time, Zhu Zhanji didn't dwell on it anymore, anyway, the emperor said that he wanted to know everything, so just say it.
"I will choose the eunuch."
"I can trust it for no other reason."
Lao Zhu's brows furrowed even tighter, but he didn't blame Zhu Zhanji, Lao Zhu's temper does not mean that he has no brains, on the contrary, Lao Zhu is definitely a first-class smart person in this world, he knows that in Zhu Zhanji's situation, eunuchs are the easiest and most convenient choice.
Ji Boying tapped lightly on the table.
"Listen, that's the point."
"Next, let's look forward a little bit."
Everyone took a deep breath and followed Ji Boying's train of thought.
"Since the unification of Qin Shi Huang, including the Ming Dynasty, the three dynasties with the most serious eunuch chaos, the Han, Tang, and Ming."
"The reason why the Han used eunuchs was to restrain their relatives; Tang is because after Anshi, the monarch and the ministers lost their hearts, and the emperor turned to favor the eunuchs; In the Ming Dynasty, it was to restrain the civil and official groups. ”
As soon as these words fell, Lao Zhu and Lao Zhu Di's brows were furrowed.
'Civilian-bureaucracy? ’
'Does this thing need restraint too?' ’
Since the Ming Dynasty, if you don't count Chongzhen, who killed the crazy, among the sixteen emperors of the Ming Dynasty, the two bosses that Wenchen was most reluctant to choose were Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang and Taizong Zhu Di.
Especially Zhu Yuanzhang, there is basically no difference between working for Lao Zhu and working for Hades.
In Hongwu and Yongle, civil officials still want to form a group?
Hehe.
Lao Zhu raised the knife and grinned, I will take a look at your group.
Lao Zhu Di will wave his hand, it's okay, even if he is in a group, it is more convenient for Jinyi to arrest people.
The big fat Zhu Gaochi understands this very well, he knows his character very well, he can't be as ruthless and decisive to his courtiers as his father and grandfather, if he ascends the throne, there is a high probability that he will be able to rule the world with scholars.
"Brother, since we have abolished the prime minister system, why is there still a civilian group that can limit the imperial power?"
Lao Zhu took a deep breath, the reason why he wanted to abolish the prime minister was to prevent the imperial power of the Ming Dynasty from being threatened by the courtiers.
"Lao Zhu, you asked a good question."
"It is from this question that we go back to your doubts about the prime minister's system."
Hearing this, Lao Zhu's spirits perked up, and he didn't want to miss a word, and Lao Zhu Di also listened very seriously.
"First of all, we have to figure out what is called phase power."
Not only Lao Zhu and Lao Zhu Di, Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Zhanji are also very attentive to listening, the two of them are different from Lao Zhu and Lao Zhu Di, they have been educated by the royal since they were children, but the royal education is also taught by the words of the saints, the four books and five classics, too boring, such a stimulating knowledge as pointing to the pros and cons of national politics, have never been contacted.
"The so-called relative power, the collective power, the decision-making power, and the administrative power, the three powers in one, can be called the relative power."
Can the relative power be so divided?!
Four generations of grandparents and grandchildren have heard of such theories, and their eyes have lit up, and this is the first time they have heard of such theories.
"Abolish the prime minister system and divide power into six departments, this divided 'power' is the administrative power, and the decision-making power is all in the hands of the Son of Heaven, so far the only person in the world who can make decisions is the Son of Heaven, and the imperial power has reached the glory of self-respect."
"As for the parliamentary regime."
Ji Boying looked at Old Zhu Di.
"Zhu Di, you should know this very well."
Lao Zhu's eyes also looked at Lao Zhu Di.
"Indeed."
Old Zhu Di nodded.
"During the Yongle period, Zhu Di of the Ming Dynasty Taizong set up a cabinet to serve as a counselor of Hallym University, which is a small part of the decentralization of the parliamentary power."
"However, although the cabinet ministers at this time can accompany them to participate in politics, they have a slight official rank, only five grades, and have no jurisdiction over the six ministries, and their influence in the DPRK is extremely limited, so it is difficult to command hundreds of officials."
"And to the Renxuan period, all the ministers of the cabinet, all added the title of squire Lang Shangshu and so on, put on the crimson official robe, it was also in the Renxuan period, the cabinet officially had the 'right to vote', the emergence of the cabinet vote power, so far it represents the parliamentary power completely attributed to the cabinet, the cabinet through the vote to influence the six ministries, the cabinet ministers began to gradually lead the six ministers above the hundred officials, at this time the first minister of the cabinet has been called the first assistant, the first assistant of the cabinet, the beginning of the wind."
"Officialdom is fluctuating, and it has always liked to huddle together, especially when the cabinet has taken control of the parliamentary power, the DPRK Chinese officials have essentially formed a cabinet-centered group."
"However, although the cabinet has the power to vote, it is still far from the real power, because the power to approve the red that symbolizes the imperial power is still firmly in the hands of the emperor."
"However, in order to balance the growing civil official group under the leadership of the cabinet, Xuanzong chose to use eunuchs and set up an inner study hall for teaching, which directly belonged to the celebrant of the twelve eunuchs of the inner court."
Speaking of this, Ji Boying stopped.
Focused pauses and make students think is one of the teaching methods.
Lao Zhu and Lao Zhu Di both frowned, and both the Hongwu and Yongle dynasties had celebrant supervisors, but they were just in charge of wedding and funeral ceremonies, rewarding pen and ink calligraphy and paintings, and supervising Guanglu Division to supply palace banquets and other miscellaneous matters.
"Immortal Master, has this celebrant affected the most core decision-making power among the three powers?"
Zhu Gaochi, who was listening carefully, raised his own questions at this time.
Lao Zhu and Lao Zhu Di are both in their hearts, the decision-making power is the imperial power, how can they be touched by eunuchs? !
"Brother, what's going on? Why are eunuchs able to get their hands on decision-making? ”
Facing Lao Zhu and Lao Zhu Di's eagerness, Ji Boying took a sip of coffee unhurriedly, raised his eyes and glanced at Zhu Zhanji who was standing aside.
"I have to ask Xiao Zhu."
Suddenly, the loving eyes from his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather once again converged on Xiao Zhu.
Zhu Zhanji: ????
