Chapter 34 Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh

Li Qing held back his badness, toasted one by one, and made a group of old men confused, and even lost their appetite for the banquet.

In fact, they didn't want to drink it, but Li Qinglao buttoned the emperor's big hat.

The group of people below are staring at it, and they don't dare to make political mistakes.

I didn't eat any dishes, I drank wine, my stomach turned over the river, and I scolded Li Qing's eight-generation ancestors in my heart.

Li Qing poured these people almost enough, and then he feasted.

This time, no one robbed him.

After the banquet was over, Li Qing ate with a mouth full of oil, and patted his belly with satisfaction: It's still cool to eat the banquet!

Looking back at Guo Jin and the others, their faces turned red, and they couldn't walk in a straight line.

Especially Liu Zhongshi, his face was blue, and he looked like he was about to vomit at any time, but he couldn't bear it and didn't dare to vomit.

Li Qing couldn't help but be happy.

Next.

When Zhu Qizhen woke up, it was already dark.

Last night, he tasted love for the first time, and he was greedy, and after a few clouds and rains, he had another ear and sideburns.

Women are conservative, but they don't know anything about the boudoir, on the contrary, when a woman reaches a certain age, especially everyone is beautiful, the matter of the boudoir is a compulsory course, not only there are albums, but even the words and deeds of the older generation.

Zhu Qizhen stretched his waist, his face was full of aftertaste, and he habitually went to hug the beauty, but it was empty.

"Wake up so early?" Zhu Qizhen was surprised, and then a touch of distress rose, and he kicked his boots and walked out.

As soon as he left the gate of the palace, he met Queen Qian who rushed back.

"Your Majesty, you're awake." Qian gave a bow and asked, "It doesn't matter if the emperor doesn't go to court today, right?" ”

"It's okay, today's court meeting was done yesterday." Zhu Qizhen waved his hand, pulled her to the inner hall, and said with a slight reproach: "You are new to personnel, why don't you rest well?" ”

"The concubines want to offer tea to the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother!" Qian whispered.

Zhu Qizhen was stunned for a moment, and said with a dry smile: "I actually forgot about this, okay, the tea is also respected, you have a good rest." ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but kiss it.

"Hmm......" Qian was a little unbearable, gently pushed him, and said weakly: "Your Majesty, what about the day." ”

Zhu Qizhen let go of her and said with a smile: "Who made my queen mother so tempting?" ”

Qian blushed to the base of his neck, and whispered: "The emperor should cherish his body, a woman hurts her body, if she misses a major national event because of her concubine, it will become the concubine's sin." ”

"Haha... Don't worry, I know what is important. Zhu Qizhen pinched her face, "You have a good rest, I went to be busy with official business, and I came to see you at noon." ”

"Well, the emperor is busy, it doesn't matter if the concubines are there." Qian wanted to get up to see him off, but he was held down.

Zhu Qizhen helped her lie down, "No need to send it, rest." ”

The young man is proud of the spring breeze, and he walks with the wind.

When he came to the imperial study, Zhu Qizhen was full of enthusiasm and high efficiency in handling government affairs, which made several cabinet members look sideways.

Midday.

Zhu Qizhen and his daughter-in-law were tired for a while, so they summoned Li Qing to come to see him.

Qianqing Palace, the front hall.

"Your Majesty, are you looking for me?"

"Well, sit down." Zhu Qizhen took a sip of tea and said, "Sir, I am now married, and it is reasonable to take over the government in an all-round way, right?" ”

Li Qing's heart moved: "The emperor wants to issue a decree directly?" ”

"Not bad." Zhu Qizhen said: "I am going to resume the inspection of the school and strengthen the supervision of officials, what do you think? ”

"Yes, yes, but the problem is ......" Li Qing smiled bitterly, "Even if the inspection is resumed, I am afraid that it will be difficult to do anything, so it is better to start with the money first." ”

"Money?" Zhu Qizhen was surprised, "What does Mr. mean, reopening the silver mine?" ”

"No, reopen maritime trade." Li Qingdao said, "The silver mines of our Daming are far less than the amount of silver produced in neighboring Japan, and if you want to make a lot of money, you have to do business." ”

Zhu Qizhen nodded slightly: "However, this is exactly what the official gentry cares about the most, but Mr. is already in the chest?" ”

"I do have some plans." Li Qing nodded.

"Tell me about it." Zhu Qizhen listened to it.

Li Qing took a deep breath, looked at him and said, "Bypass the ministers and talk directly to the partner." ”

"What do you mean?" Zhu Qizhen didn't understand too much.

"Send an urgent summons for the Japanese king to come to pay tribute, take this opportunity to negotiate trade, and clearly tell them that they can only trade with the imperial court." Li Qing said.

"Then what if he disobeys the yang and the yin?"

Li Qing smiled, "If that's the case, then it's even better, just send troops and grab it." ”

Zhu Qizhen was stunned, and said sincerely: "Sir, you are really dark, but ...... I like it. ”

Li Qing: "......"

Zhu Qizhen added: "However, I still feel that it is necessary to reopen the inspection school, the restrictions of the officials are too relaxed, and it will become more and more difficult to manage in the long run." ”

"My advice is, take your time." Li Qing said, "If the means are too radical, they will definitely resist fiercely." ”

"So what?" Zhu Qizhen said proudly, "Now that the army has basically stabilized, although I have not yet taken charge of the military power, at least they will not wear a pair of pants with Wenchen.

Sir, don't you often say that Xiucai rebels and can't succeed in three years?

Since they can't lift the sky, why should I be afraid? ”

Li Qing was speechless, but he still didn't want to break the situation of hard work, and persuaded: "They can't turn the sky upside down, but they can make you uncomfortable, and they can also make the emperor's policy exist in name only.

Now, it's not the time. ”

"When is that time?" Zhu Qizhen was a little impatient, "Am I just watching them all the time, getting bigger day by day?" ”

Li Qing shook his head with a smile: "After the abolition of the guarantee system, the development of the civilian group has been greatly restricted, especially now that the army has been reassigned to guard the eunuchs, the development speed of the civilian government has almost stagnated, there is no need to rush for a moment." ”

After a pause, "Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar must be in place, not too much, and not lacking, the heat must be controlled well, if it is light, it will not be cooked, and if it is heavy, it will be boiled;

Don't be careless! ”

Li Qing said sincerely, and Zhu Qizhen slowly calmed down.

After a long time, he bowed his head and said: "Mr. is reasonable, I am a little impatient, but the institution of the inspection school is determined by Taizu, and its purpose is to supervise officials; I must reopen! ”

"The emperor is wise." Li Qing first affirmed the little emperor, and then said, "Many things are not achieved overnight, you need to plan slowly, the time has not yet come, but you can create step by step." ”

Li Qing analyzed: "Now, the abolition of the guarantee system, the emperor has withdrawn a large part of the appointment and dismissal power of officials, and when you control the financial power again, you will get twice the result with half the effort if you implement the national policy again;

Money is easy to do, since ancient times! ”

For example, he said: "The emperor rewarded the soldiers who won the battle, and to a large extent won the favor of the army; Isn't that the charm of money? ”

"Makes sense." Zhu Qizhen thought so, "Should the silver mine be reopened immediately?" ”

"Don't be in a hurry first, you can't become a fat man by eating one bite." Li Qing said: "Stabilize the trade first, and then talk about it when it is on the right track." ”

Zhu Qizhen sighed and said with admiration: "It's still Mr. who has a long-term vision, and I am sometimes too childish, immature enough, and don't think about it." ”

Fortunately, the little emperor distinguishes between right and wrong and listens to persuasion.

"Huh...... The emperor was too modest. Li Qing relaxed, "The emperor is still young, and he will grow in the future, and he will definitely be able to become a generation of Ming Jun." ”

Zhu Qizhen's mood improved, and he said with a smile: "By the way, how about the sweet potato roast today?" ”

Li Qing also smiled: "It's very good, the hundred officials are so drunk that their faces are red and their necks are thick." ”

"Oh? Haha...... "Zhu Qizhen is overjoyed.

~

After laughing for a while, Li Qing returned to the topic.

"Your Majesty, in fact, many things seem to be inconsequential, but they are actually very related." Li Qing taught, "Wenchen likes to build momentum, take advantage of the momentum, and strengthen the momentum;

In order to achieve the goal of overwhelming the supreme and seeking profit for oneself;

The emperor can also use his own way to give back to him! ”

Zhu Qizhen leaned forward and listened.

Li Qing said with a smile: "The emperor wants to reopen the inspection school, and its purpose is to rectify the officialdom, but the rectification of officialdom does not necessarily have to reopen the inspection school. ”

"Like ......?"

"Straighten out the whole person!" Li Qingdao, "Officialdom can be rectified, but it is far better to rectify officialdom in a way that harms the overall interests of officials than to directly target the parties." ”

Li Qing took a sip of tea and continued: "Actually, the minister also thought that it was time to rectify the officialdom a little, but at this stage, the inspection school could not be reopened. ”

Zhu Qizhen frowned and said, "For the parties...... Won't they huddle then? ”

"Not necessarily." Li Qing smiled and said, "Didn't the emperor forget the multiple-choice question he gave to the hundred officials a few days ago?" ”

"Remember, but this ...... What does it matter? Zhu Qizhen was a little confused.

Li Qing explained: "The emperor said at that time that all officials who have reached the age of seventy must return to their hometowns; Those scholars, squires, and scholars are all like great enemies, and they don't dare to talk deeply, so why not? ”

He asked himself, "The reason is that they all know that the court will not be affected in the slightest if it leaves them;

Because the people below will connect seamlessly, the government can still operate as usual;

And those who are in charge below the waiter, the outsider and others, are also eager for the people above to move their nests, so that they can go further. ”

Li Qing said: "So, as long as the emperor doesn't harm their collective interests, they won't easily get together, and it's not difficult for the emperor to punish individuals." ”

After a pause, he added: "Your Majesty, you can use the rectification of individual officials to achieve the political goal of rectifying officialdom, and you can also use this means to deter high-ranking and powerful bosses.

Let them understand that if you don't satisfy the emperor, you can replace him at any time;

In the long run, they will develop a fear of you, and the emperor's power will be further strengthened. ”

Li Qing concluded: "Power, one is two, two is one, power can be power, power can also be power. ”

's words made Zhu Qizhen deafening.

"Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years." Zhu Qizhen was deeply impressed and sighed: "Mr.'s words made me pause, such golden and jade words are ten thousand gold, and it is difficult to find!" ”

Li Qing was stunned and said in surprise: "The emperor wants to reward me with gold?" ”

"Uh...... Reward, reward. Zhu Qizhen nodded and said, "Since Mr. entered the court, he has made countless meritorious contributions, how can I treat Mr. badly, and someone will come." ”

The little yellow door in the distance immediately stepped forward, "What does the emperor command?" ”

"Spread the word to me, go to the treasury to get a hundred taels of gold, and send it to Mr. Li later."

"Yes, slave and maid." Xiao Huangmen said yes and went happily.

According to the custom, the emperor rewarded the reward, and the person receiving the reward should give the eunuch some return gifts.

Good guy, he said that it was hard to find money, but he only got a hundred taels of reward...... Li Qing touched his nose: "Thank the emperor for the reward." ”

"Not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning." Zhu Qizhen said with a smile.

It's really not worth mentioning...... Li Qing got up and said: "It's not too early, if the emperor has no other orders, Rong Chen will retire." ”

Zhu Qizhen followed and got up, "I send Mr. Send." ”

"The emperor is polite, stay."

"Mr. I'm sending it." Zhu Qizhen is very persistent.

Li Qing couldn't resist him, so he had to let him send him away.

Zhu Qizhen sent all the way out of the palace gate before he stopped and instructed: "Tomorrow's court meeting will be held normally, don't be late!" ”

“…… Got it. Li Qing arched his hand, "The minister retreated." ”

"Sir, walk slowly."

Zhu Qizhen watched Li Qing go away, and whispered to himself: "Mr. Li is really good, with his help, why should I worry about big things?" ”

After a pause, "But this gentleman is really excessive, and there will always be rewards in the future, but... It's okay to be promoted, just let him do it all. ”

At the end, he added: "I am also for his good." ”
