Zhu Qizhen asked Chen Xun again: "Will the charge given by my younger brother to San Yang Ding's 'collusion with the inner court and conspiracy to abolish the queen' be confirmed?" Is there room to maneuver? “

Chen Xun shook his head very affirmatively: "There is no room for it, and the minister advises Your Majesty not to compete with the emperor on this." Nowadays, most of the cabinet scholars and the six Shangshu are all devoted to the emperor.

In particular, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, these key ministries and institutes are all in the hands of the emperor's cronies.

It is too easy to get the Criminal Department, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Dali Temple to get the result that the emperor wants.

His Majesty's advantage in the middle and lower ranks of officials. ”

"Then what can Aiqing do to deal with the current situation?"

Chen Xun smiled bitterly: "If something else happens, divert the attention of the government and the opposition, maybe there is hope." ”

Zhu Qizhen nodded thoughtfully. A major event, a major event that can divert the attention of civil and military officials, this is not easy to find.

Recently, the world has been peaceful, and the people in Warat, Miao, and the southeast have all become unstable, so what else can be a big deal.

Chen Xun was charged again: "Whether Your Majesty's family is healthy or not is the most important thing that the government and the opposition are most concerned about now." ”

"Huh? What does Aiqing mean? ”

Chen Xun turned his head and glanced at the northwest direction, and then replied: "Wechen is dead, and Wechen is retiring." ”

With that, Chen Xun knelt down and kowtowed heavily, and then withdrew from the main hall.

In fact, Chen Xun did not have a particularly obvious tendency between Gongrang Emperor and the current son.

But Chen Xun never wanted to see Gong let the emperor's family die for no apparent reason.

Even if you don't mention the kindness of the emperors of Yongle, Hongxi, Xuande, and orthodoxy, you don't mention Yang Shiqi's drag on his fellow villagers in Ji'an, Jiangxi.

Just because Chen Xun is still the number one bachelor in the cabinet, once Gong Rang has a problem with the emperor's family, Chen Xun will definitely not be able to run away in the history books.

Chen Xun didn't want to bear the infamy, and decided that he would definitely do it to Emperor Gong today.

Therefore, the contradiction between Chen Xun and the emperor suddenly began to become irreconcilable.

Chen Xun left the South Palace, leaving only Zhu Qizhen in a daze in the dormitory: Before Chen Xun left, what did it mean to look in the northwest direction?

To the northwest, the Empress Dowager's Yinghua Hall is in the northwest corner of the Forbidden City.

Chen Xun is hinting that the Queen Mother is pretending to be sick? Really sick? Or something else?

If you want to divert the attention of the government and the opposition, you can't pretend to be sick.

can only be really sick, and it has to be very sick.

Zhu Qizhen shook his head, Chen Xun's suggestion is not pure nonsense, it doesn't work if you are lightly ill, and it is too dangerous to be seriously ill. If you get rid of the game and have a life, you will kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800 yourself.

What Zhu Qizhen didn't expect was that Chen Xun's true meaning was to kill a thousand enemies and lose 800 himself.

At this point, Chen Xun and Wei Ji coincide.

That is to abandon the car to protect the handsome, and the Sun family is completely cut, and it is a hundred.

Otherwise, the Sun clan is the weakest weakness of the Emperor's camp. As long as the emperor continues to make a fuss about the Sun family, the Sun family will cause a big disaster sooner or later.

When the time comes, the Sun family will be wiped out, and it will be a fatal matter for the emperor and the crown prince to be implicated.

Zhu Qizhen hesitated, and his illness was not yet cured, so he decided to rest for one night.

How can you know, if you delay it overnight, it will be a big thing again.

The same was true of the previous civil fort, if Zhu Qizhen could run a day early, directly throw down the army, and lead the elite soldiers into Juyong Pass, then there would be no such things as now.

The emperor wanted to track down the death of Empress Hu and wipe out the traitors in the inner court. Before dinner, it was already boiling in the whole inner court.

It is true that most of the eunuchs have no children, but most of the eunuchs also have clansmen.

Xuande followed Xuanzong and Sun's cronies and eunuchs in the early years, and this time he was really afraid.

Tonight's incident is not only related to the fate of the Sun family, but also to the lives of Jin Ying and other great eunuchs.

So far, even if Empress Dowager Sun doesn't want to do it, Jin Ying and others have to come with Empress Dowager Sun.

No matter how the undercurrent is surging in the Forbidden City, Zhu Qiyu is soaking in the hot springs, leisurely tasting cherry wine.

After drinking until he was dizzy, Zhu Qiyu leaned his head against the edge of the hot spring pool and let the concubines give him a full body massage.

Happy to drink today, Zhu Qiyu suddenly laughed.

Lin Xiangyu asked curiously: "Why did the emperor laugh and tell the slave maid to hear it." ”

Zhu Qiyu explained: "I'm laughing, for example, there is a house in which many people live. If you want to open a window in the wall, people will stand up against it, and it looks like they want to live or die.

But if you're about to tear off the roof as soon as you come up, and after a lot of tug-of-war, that's when you come up and make a compromise and agree to just open the window.

Others, on the other hand, will rejoice and cheer because they agree to open only one window.

Human nature, you say it's weird, isn't it strange? ”

Lin Xiangyu shook her head: "The slave and maid understand the truth, but what does the husband want to do?" ”

"I have already negotiated with Wei Ji, and his recital will be delivered to the cabinet early tomorrow morning. There are three points in the content: First, it is required to change the Beijing inspection and general plan from once every nine years to once every six years.

Second, it is recommended that the Jingtai Dynasty immediately carry out the Jingcha and the Great Plan this year, and then count from this year onwards, and carry out the second Jingtai Dynasty and the Great Plan six years later.

Third, it is proposed to abolish the guarantee and restore the election of officials. ”

"Jingcha is for Beijing officials, and the plan is for local officials? It's all about inspecting officials, and the slave understands it right, right? The civil and military officials couldn't have fried the pot when they saw this letter. ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded.

Lin Xiangyu's eyes turned, and she understood the meaning: "The slave understands, what the husband means is that only one of these three proposals is what you really want to implement."

You first throw out three reform measures in one go, and when the civil and military officials are arguing, you make 'huge concessions' and remove two of them, so that the civil and military officials should cheer and be grateful to Dade. ”

Zhu Qiyu shook his head: "The concubine is really thorough." But forget it about being grateful to Dade, if the civil and military officials don't hide in the bed and scold me, I will be grateful to them. ”

"Then the four of us guess which one the husband wants to keep, and if we guess correctly, the husband will be rewarded."

"Good."

Qianxue and Suxi took the lead in choosing the second one: this year's Jingcha and the big plan. However, the interval between Jingcha and Daji is still nine years.

Lin Xiangyu and Ning Xiang chose the third one.

Zhu Qiyu was also curious: "Why don't you all choose the first one?" Ningxiang, you can talk about it. ”

Ning Xiang said with a smile: "Actually, my husband doesn't want to do anything about Jingcha and big plans at all, and he won't shorten the interval. Because the husband is a person who likes to be far-sighted, and the frequent conduct of Beijing inspections and grand plans will only make civil and military officials more short-sighted, focusing only on immediate results and ignoring long-term interests.

Just like the disgusting things that Sanyang did, he was happy in front of him, and he didn't care about the future at all.

The husband hates Sanyang and hates poison, so how can he follow their old path. ”

Zhu Qiyu smiled bitterly: "Sanyang is not as good as you as a little girl." Officials have to be examined, but we have to think of a better way.

Jingcha and the big plan are really too rigid, choose a time, and inspect thousands of officials in one go, just those people in the ministry, even these officials may not know all of them, what can he investigate.

If I were a local official, I wouldn't like this kind of expedition either. If the officials formulate some assessment standards for quick success and quick profit, it will really be a personal life.

It is not for nothing that officials hate Jingcha and Daji.

I have to find Xu Youzhen and them and ask them to come up with an inspection method that can be more flexible and efficient, and allow officials to be undisturbed. ”

Ning Xiang was praised and asked with a smile, "Then which of us guessed correctly?" ”

"You and Feng'er guessed correctly, I just want to abolish the Baoju and restore the election of officials. This has to scold Yang Shiqi, the bastard who lacks eighteen generations of great virtue.

Originally, the selection of officials was done well, but this bastard had to instigate Xuanzong to engage in some kind of guarantee system.

Then, Xuanzong, I didn't even bother to talk about him. is like Yang Shiqi's marionette, being played around.

Tell me how many pits he dug for me and my poor brother Gongrang Emperor.

As long as I go out to deal with military and political affairs, whether it is internal affairs, people's livelihood, diplomacy, or military affairs, wherever I go, it will be a big hole dug by him, and I have to wipe his old man's ass endlessly.

Xuanzong and Yang Shiqi are a natural pair, such a strange thing is really hard to find, I am really afraid of them.

Oh, the guarantee system, my God, you might as well break the jar and break it, and just engage in the Jiupin Zhongzheng system. “
