"Chen Yuqian (Li Qing) see long live my emperor."

"No courtesy, no courtesy." Zhu Qiyu got up and said with a smile, "The two Aiqing don't have to be formal, come and give a seat." ”

Yu Qian arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers are here to ......."

As he spoke, he looked at Chen Xun and the others, and the meaning was self-evident.

Chen Gaomiao's face was instantly ugly, the temple had been fighting for so long, and they basically knew each other's routines.

When he saw Yu Qian, he was suffocated.

Especially Li Qing, the evil star, is also there, but as long as Li Qing comes out, they will never fall well.

The three of them looked at Zhu Qiyu expectantly, they didn't want to go, at least Yu Qian still had scruples, no matter how bad it was, he could still refute it, but it was all up to the other party's mouth if he left.

Zhu Qiyu pondered for a while, nodded and said, "Three Aiqing, today's official business is here." ”

“……”

Xiao Tiantian twisted her face and became Mrs. Niu, and the three of them were uncomfortable.

But the emperor has issued an order to expel the guests, and they can't force themselves not to leave.

“…… The minister retired. The three of them had no choice but to leave.

~

"Sit down." Zhu Qiyu sat down again and said in a loud voice: "Serve tea." ”

Li Qing dipped Yu Qian's light and mixed a cup of tea to drink.

"The two Aiqing are here, what is the matter?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

Yu Qian said: "Your Majesty, it has been delayed for the first day of the new year, but it can't be delayed for fifteen, and some things should be put on the agenda." ”

Zhu Qiyu frowned, and asked tentatively: "Does Yu Aiqing have a belly case?" ”

Yu Qian glanced at Li Qing, and Zhu Qiyu followed Yu Qian's gaze and also looked at Li Qing.

"Is it Li Aiqing who has a belly case?"

"Hmm." Li Qing put down the teacup and said bluntly, "Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, in order to prevent repeating the mistakes of the Song Dynasty, we have been committed to suppressing the civilian official group;

However, with the decline of the war and the development of domestic affairs, the civilian service is still growing uncontrollably and rapidly;

In fact, before the Emperor Taishang took office, they had already succeeded, and the civilian officials completely suppressed the military generals, and even the maritime trade was stopped......"

Li Qing has been in the temple for so many years, and no one can match his understanding and insight into the politics of the Ming Dynasty, he spoke very thoroughly, and Zhu Qiyu also listened very carefully.

"The benefits brought by maritime trade are an important basis for the development of the country." Li Qingdao said, "In the past, Taizong's great achievements were inseparable from maritime trade. ”

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "I have also heard of this, indeed, the vehicle and vessel tax cannot be abolished, and the business at sea cannot be given up by the imperial court." ”

"The emperor is wise." Yu Qian praised.

Zhu Qiyu smiled and looked at Li Qing again, "If Li Aiqing has any other opinions, let's say them together." ”

He said gently: "But it doesn't hurt to say, I don't sin." ”

Li Qing was also not polite: "In addition, there is the dispute between civil and military, and the real growth of civil officials is after the Yongle Dynasty;

This is because during the reign of Taizu and Taizong, there was political soil for military generals, but after the Yongle Dynasty, with the reduction of wars, the imperial court restored its civilian power, and the civil officials expanded rapidly.

As a last resort, Xuanzong could only control the military power through personal conquest and border patrols, and control the government by controlling the military power. ”

After a pause, "Actually, Emperor Taishang is eager to conquer in person, and he also wants to follow Xuanzong's example, and indirectly consolidate the imperial power and control the court situation by taking military power, but it's just ......"

"Your Majesty, now is a great opportunity, firstly, the generals have made meritorious contributions, and it is natural to reward them; Second, when the generals are rewarded, they will also be grateful to the emperor and stand with the emperor. "Li Qingdao,

"When the generals grow up, the group of civil officials will be restrained and scruples."

"Well, that makes sense." Zhu Qiyu nodded frequently, "However, the civil officials must not be willing to be like this, I am in charge of the great treasure at the beginning, in case they don't work hard, or pick a pick, in the end, it will be the Daming country that will be affected." ”

At this point, his face was full of worry.

Li Qing said: "The emperor doesn't have to be like this, don't look at the fierceness of their mouths, there are few hard bones who are really moving." ”

"Huh? Torture? Zhu Qiyu was shocked, "No, no, this is absolutely impossible." ”

“…… It's not a punishment, what the minister means is that they won't let a good official not do it and ask for resignation. Li Qing was a little speechless, "They complain on their lips and complain in their hearts, but how many people are willing to give up the cold window for ten years, and they have been in the official position for many years?" ”

Zhu Qiyu calmed down and nodded slowly: "Li'er is such a Li'er, but if you don't do a good balance, even if they won't resign, they can make me uncomfortable by not doing things well." ”

"It's about making partial compromises." Li Qing's head was raised, "The share of maritime trade can be turned into three or seven open!" ”

"Seven of them?" Zhu Qiyu was surprised.

"Hmm."

"Hmm..."Zhu Qiyu pondered for a long time, nodded and said: "There are a lot of thirty percent of trade plus commercial tax, as well as land tax, salt water and other large taxes......"

I can't spend it, I can't spend it at all.

Zhu Qiyu was good enough to calculate, so he agreed to Li Qing's proposal.

"Over there, what does Li Aiqing think?" Zhu Qiyu asked, he is now more and more optimistic about Li Qing.

"Pick out a few capable ones and give them a knighthood." Li Qing said, "To a certain extent, this can beat those dishonest old nobles and let them roll up." ”

"Roll up?" Zhu Qiyu didn't understand the meaning of this term.

Yu Qian explained: "It is to let them compete, so as to benefit the emperor." ”

"That's it," Zhu Qiyu nodded with a smile, "It's indeed a good way." ”

……

Half an hour later, Li Qing finished talking about what he was thinking, and Zhu Qiyu basically agreed.

"Nothing else." Li Qing got up and said, "If the emperor has no other instructions, the minister will retire." ”

"Well, Aiqing walks slowly."

"The minister also retired." Yu Qian followed and got up, but Zhu Qiyu said, "Yu Aiqing stays." ”

Yu Qian was stunned for a moment, said yes, and slowly did it.

Li Qing didn't linger and left directly.

This is just a solution, not that everything will be fine with a solution, the real difficulty lies in implementation.

And the difficulty of implementation is far less easy than Li Qing said.

The civil official clique has always been a thief, they have been in the trap for too long, and there were successful cases more than ten years ago, Li Qing knows that this time the resistance of the civilian clique will be unprecedentedly strong.

In fact, Li Qing didn't have a good way, and it was impossible to solve the problem calmly.

After so many years of struggle, the patience of the civilian clique is almost exhausted, and if even the emperor can't win back a city, they will definitely make a big move.

……

Next.

Li Qing got up early in the morning, but when he arrived at Fengtian Palace, it was still late, and as soon as the front foot arrived, Zhu Qiyu came on the back foot.

The ministers are well-trained to perform the great gifts of the monarch and the ministers:

"Ministers see my emperor long live, long live, long live ......!"

Zhu Qiyu sat on the dragon chair, holding a dragon head in one hand, overlooking the ministers who worshipped him, although he had enjoyed it many times, he still enjoyed it very much.

This is the charm of imperial power!

Zhu Qiyu has an indescribable pride rising in his heart, and today he is going to say 'no'.

"All the ministers are flat!"

"Your Majesty." The ministers got up and stood up as they worked.

Zhu Qiyu cleared his throat and said: "Some time ago, the Tatar army pressed the border, and I was united in the Ming Dynasty to jointly defend the enemy from outside the country; All the kings have merit, and now the soldiers have basically been rewarded and compensated;

However, there are still many people who have not yet received their due reward. ”

The ministers froze for a moment, and a flash of surprise flashed in their eyes.

Finally, it's time to reward meritorious deeds.

Li Qing pouted secretly: It's like you repelling the Tatars, when you fight, each is more afraid than the other, and when you share the credit, each is more enthusiastic than the other.

Glancing at the side of the general, seeing that Shi Heng and Shi Biao's uncle and nephew were also there, Li Qing felt a little more comfortable, it seemed that Zhu Qiyu had indeed listened to his opinion and wanted to reuse the general.

Although I don't know what Zhu Qiyu and Yu Qian talked about after they left, but looking at it now, there is basically no difference.

"Yang Hong listens to the seal!"

"The minister is here." Yang Hong came out of class and took a few steps forward to bow down.

Zhu Qiyu said: "In the defense of Beijing, Yang Qing made great contributions, gave Changping Marquis, and served as the chief military officer of the Beijing battalion. ”

"Minister......" Yang Hong was so excited that his whole body trembled, he forcibly suppressed his agitated emotions, and said respectfully, "Thank the emperor for his grace." ”

Zhu Qiyu smiled: "Shi Heng listens to the seal!" ”

"The minister is here." Shi Heng came out of work, blushing and bowing down, "Listen to the order." ”gòйЪ.ōΓg

"Shi Aiqing rushed to the aid of Andingmen in time, resisted the Tatars outside the city, gave Wu Qinghou, and served as the commander-in-chief."

"Thank you." Shi Heng was even more excited than Yang Hong, and he went down headlong and almost didn't break the gold brick.

Zhu Qiyu continued: "Shi Biao listens to the order. ”

"The minister is here." Shi Biao is not much better than his uncle, and he can't even control his grin, he is not good at all today.

"Rushing to the aid of Andingmen, Aiqing made a great contribution and was promoted to command the guerrilla general." Zhu Qiyu said.

"Thank you."

"Yang Jun listens."

"The minister is here."

……

The ministers listened quietly, their faces becoming more and more ugly......
