715 The emperor stepped up the transfer of power and counseled the crown prince to govern the court
On the sixth day of the first month of March, at the strong request of the important ministers, Zhu Qiyu had no choice but to come out to see the court.
The people came quite completely, and the venue of the court meeting had to be selected in the Qingyun Palace. Zhu Qiyu took Zhu Wenfang to sit on the dragon chair, feeling awkward and uncomfortable. There is no soft couch, crooked, leaning on, very restrained.
So Zhu Qiyu's first sentence was to sigh and complain: "Hey, you don't have to call me in the future, it's not a big deal, the court meeting will be avoided."
If you have to go to the court, let the prince go up, I'm not in good health, I want to recuperate at home. ”
Everyone was speechless when they heard this, everyone's eyes were not blind, the emperor was full of red light and radiant, where was the appearance of poor health.
And from ancient times to the present, most emperors will try their best to guard against the crown prince. Our Emperor Jingtai is good, the crown prince is only eight years old, so he is anxious and panicked all day long to build a team for him and transfer power.
The emperor is more anxious to hand over the dragon chair than the prince himself, which is really rare.
Zhu Qiyu saw that the ministers did not answer, and added: "When Xuanmiao died young, when my brother ascended the throne as emperor, he was more than a year older than the current prince.
The elder brother does not have the support of his father and brother, and there is a concubine of Xuanmiao who is brought up indiscriminately, and there is a rare traitor like Sanyang outside.
Now that the prince has a father and a mother, and you are virtuous ministers and good generals, there is no problem at all.
Most of the military and political affairs, let the prince handle it, you must assist with your heart, and you must not slack off. ”
After Zhu Qizhen's father and son completely lost the threat to the throne, Zhu Qiyu was a brother and called him very affectionate.
Everyone looked at each other, and the emperor was lazy, which has long been a well-known thing. But the rush to give way to this extent was something that no one expected.
But everyone can't say how the throne will be handed over, and it's not something that the minister can easily interject.
Only Zhou Xuan had the courage to ask: "Saint, the prince is still young, and he has to participate in the scripture banquet, and he has to assist the saint in handling some government affairs, and he has to preside over the court meeting, is it too tired?" ”
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "It makes sense, then let's participate in less sutra feasts." The original intention of the feast is to learn the way to govern the country, so let's discuss and learn with the secretary of state while looking at the government. ”
When Zhu Wenfang heard this, she was happy, and she immediately got up to thank her. Zhou Xuan and the others naturally wanted to object, but the prince thanked him too fast.
Zhu Qiyu also immediately changed the topic: "Let's do it." ”
The ministers saw that the father and son sang and harmonized, and the tacit understanding was incomparable, so they had to change the topic and start to do things.
Today's theme is the famine in Shandong and Henan.
Shen Yi was the first to stand up and say: "Shengshang, since last year, 60,419 households have fled and died in the three prefectures of Jinan, Dongchang, and Qingzhou in Shandong, as well as 32 prefectures and counties including Yangxin, and 39,51 acres of 63 acres of official and civilian land have been abandoned.
165,492 people were moved.
A total of more than 212,500 stone of tax grain and more than 265,800 bundles of horse grass were owed. By God's will, these are all forgiven.
Moreover, Shandong continues to suffer from floods this year, and it is also accompanied by locust plagues.
When it comes to how to help the famine, please show me from above. ”
Zhu Qiyu sighed: "More than 60,000 families have fled and died? More than 39,000 hectares of abandoned official land and private land were abandoned? ”
Shen Yi nodded affirmatively.
Zhu Qiyu asked again: "Why did it take a year to move out more than 160,000 people?" ”
Shen Yi replied: "The people of Shandong have relocated to their land, and they are easily unwilling to go overseas. Last year, the imperial court took out 1 million stone of grain, and the Holy Emperor took 2 million stones.
Lu Fan took two or three hundred thousand stones, and Confucius was forced to pay nearly one million stones.
With these reliefs, the people can barely survive, and most of them are naturally reluctant to leave when they think that the famine will pass this year. ”
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Feel free, I found a way to live for them, and if they don't want to go, then I can't blame it."
When the war is over, organize immigrants from Jeju Island, North Korea, and Japan to go back and preach to the villagers, and if there are those who are willing to go, go and pull them down if they are not willing to go. ”
Shen Yi asked: "Japan needs to move hundreds of thousands of Han people over in a short period of time, dare to ask the saint, where do these people come from?" ”
Zhu Qiyu asked Zhu Wenfang: "Prince, what do you say?" ”
Zhu Wenfang thought for a while, and then replied: "The soldiers of the Shanxi Guard, I heard that more than half of them have fled during the Xuande and Yuanjia years.
In the fourteenth year of Yuanzhen, he also invaded Shanxi in three major battles, which also proved that many guards in Shanxi did not want to fight for the imperial court at all.
In that case, it is better to fulfill them and move them to Japan to farm in Ansei. ”
As soon as Zhu Wenfang's words came out, four words flashed in the minds of all the ministers: A raccoon dog!
The style of the emperor and the crown prince is not bad, at least they are exactly the same.
Back then, in Shanxi, it was obviously the king of Yuanjia who was pitted, but the emperor and the crown prince, as the profiteers, were obsessed with it and kept holding on to it.
That's where the ass decides the head.
After Taizong, Renmiao, and Xuanmiao successively abandoned Dongsheng and Kaiping, the front line continued to shrink backwards, causing Shanxi to become a front line facing Warat and Tatar.
As a result, Shanxi was made to look dead by a group of virtuous ministers and good generals, who wanted soldiers but no soldiers, no food, no ordnance, no defense line, and no intelligence.
As soon as the army arrived, these civil and military generals in Shanxi pulled them to their grandmother's house and brought Zhu Qizhen to death.
Zhu Qiyu and Zhu Wenfang, the father and son, naturally hated this, for fear that this disgusting thing would happen again, so that it would hit their own heads.
Wang Wen stood up and said: "Shengshang, His Royal Highness the Prince, the Jurchen savage governor Annu paid tribute, and on the way back to Liaodong, the Zongsu Department seized the property of the postman, and the left general Cao Guang ordered his subordinates to chase after it.
Chang Annu was furious and shot hundreds of households with a bow. Cao Guang was indignant, and tied Chang Annu and others to the public office at the post station, and scolded them with a cane.
The inspector reported it to the Metropolitan Procuratorate according to the imperial history, and impeached Cao Guang for losing his intention to be soft and far away, and destroying the peace of the frontier. ”
Zhu Qiyu motioned for Zhu Wenfang to reply.
Zhu Wenfang asked, "What does the Metropolitan Procuratorate mean?" ”
Wang Wen replied: "Your Highness, the Metropolitan Procuratorate believes that Cao Guang should be condemned and rewarded with Chang'an Nu silver money to comfort him. ”
Zhu Wenfang asked: "Is it true that what happened in the imperial history?" ”
"It's true."
"That's fine, remove Annu from his post as governor as a punishment."
Wang Wen was also stunned: "Huh? This ......"
Zhu Wenfang sneered: "Chang Annu connived at his subordinates to rob the postman's property, is this a fact?" Chang Annu led a bow and shot the hundred households sent by Cao Guang, this is also a fact, right?
The Metropolitan Procuratorate didn't want to be the master of the front-line soldiers, but wanted to reprimand Cao Guang for losing his sense of softness.
What do they want to be far away? The laws of the Ming Dynasty can neither protect the right post man nor a hundred households, so the Han people deserve to be lowly and unlucky, right? ”
