Jiang Yucong inevitably had some ideas after listening to his father's teachings.
His attitude is also very simple.
That is, officials who can be taught should be re-employed; those who cannot be taught should be considered marginalized even if they are not used.
Just like this Cen Minzhou, if he is too pedantic, just change him to another place.
Thinking of this, he secretly glanced at his father and said to himself, if a person who wanted to protect himself entered the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he would definitely not impeach his father.
Emperor Jinghe didn't know that his favorite son was slandering him, and sneered at his simple idea: "If you do this, you will soon find that the entire center of the court will be vacant, and the peripheral positions are afraid It’s going to be packed with people!”
After he laughed, he looked seriously at his son who wanted to refute: "The last thing an emperor can do is to pursue ideals and perfection too much. What I want you to learn is the way to use people, not the way to use good people."
Jiang Yucong humbly said yes, but silently lamented that it would be difficult to pursue the harmony between kings and ministers that ancient sages longed for, to work together with one heart and one mind to create a prosperous age!
Emperor Jinghe looked at his much quieter son and smiled: "Don't look at Cen Minzhou. He often made trouble with me during the women's imperial examination. In fact, he was the person in the cabinet who was the least persistent in his opposition.
Yan Yuan, the first assistant, Gu Yuncheng, the second assistant, and even those great scholars, famous Confucian scholars, ministers, etc. were all more persistent in their opposition than him.
The waves on the surface are not scary. What you need to pay attention to are the rocks and undercurrents under the sea.
Cong'er, tell me, why do I say that their father and daughter's co-dynasty can be a good story for Qing Dynasty? "
Emperor Jinghe's words suddenly changed and he turned to the issue very abruptly.
Jiang Yucong thought for a while: "Father promised him everything."
Emperor Jinghe smiled and nodded: "It's far from satisfactory!"
Jiang Yucong thought again: "I heard that Cen Sanfu's sons are of good character and knowledge, but they are not as capable as their father. They have neither the ability to govern nor the talent to be in charge of a department. If the Cen family wants to continue Cen Sanfu's glory may depend on the third generation.
Father, what you promise to give him is not only comprehensive, but also room for growth for the third generation of the Cen family. "
Emperor Jinghe smiled and nodded: "From ancient times to the present, how many descendants of ministers have been in poverty and poverty, without the glory of their ancestors."
"I think Cen Sanfu is aware of my father's painstaking efforts."
"I don't care whether he knows it or not, I only care whether he cooperates or not." Emperor Jinghe snorted disapprovingly, "The difference between Cen Minzhou's treatment of his children is so obvious that it is almost known to the whole world. If his daughter is in the women's imperial examination If you can be on the list for the first time, you can be selected as a top talent, enter the Imperial Academy, or enter the cabinet, then you can touch more traditional opponents."
"They will think that Cen Sanfu must have compromised after seeing a huge benefit, and this benefit, even if they don't know the specific reason, is still coveted?" Jiang Yucong suddenly realized.
The smile on Emperor Jinghe's face finally became clearer: "Greed! The more people stick to the old rules, the more greedy they are. They are old-fashioned because of greed, and because being old-fashioned can ensure that their inherent interests remain unchanged. Therefore, the only way to deal with greedy people is to let them The greed is ready to take action.”
Therefore, Cen Minzhou has set the benchmark!
If the other party understands his interest, the monarch and his ministers will naturally be in love; if he does not want to understand his interest, he will not mind helping him understand his interest.
Jiang Yucong listened thoughtfully, but when he wanted to continue thinking about it, his father interrupted his thoughts.
"The Ministry of Rites and Qin Tianjian have already started to arrange your wedding date. When Brother Yu and the others come back from their study tour, the process of your marriage will begin."
When Emperor Jinghe mentioned his second son's marriage, he couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
Of course, this emotion disappeared after thinking that the palace could be quiet for a while.
"Brother Yu wants to design an official ship..." Jiang Yucong has been working in the Sixth Department recently, and he can also take care of the affairs of the Ministry of Industry, so he let this cheap cousin keep an eye on him.
Hearing this, Jing Hedi laughed angrily: "This guy just drove my craftsmen around, but he didn't stop! You didn't agree, did you?"
Jiang Yucong shook his head: "The main reason is that the craftsmen feel that Brother Yu is pressing too hard and may not be able to make it on time... My son feels that since it is a study tour, it is better not to take shortcuts. After all, the water is unpredictable, so it is more appropriate to take the land route. "
"You're right! I don't approve of them going south by water!" Emperor Jinghe nodded and told him, "Your answer this time is very good. His children are causing mischief. You brothers still have to do it." Identify what is feasible and what is not feasible.”
Jiang Yucong smiled and nodded.
"That kid finally left the capital to cause trouble!" Thinking that he didn't have to deal with Yan Guan's unreasonable troubles in recent months, Emperor Jing He felt that his whole person had sublimated.
As for Brother Yu...it's not like he won't come back, so don't think too much about it!
…
"You children, when you go out, don't be too ostentatious. As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake. You must know how to restrain yourself and learn to temporarily avoid the opponent's sharp edges. A hero will not suffer the consequences, and you children should not. Show off your strength."
The closer it was to the departure of Shengyuan's several study tours, the more nervous Sheng Xiangxun and Zheng were. If it weren't for their eldest daughter's marriage to take care of, they would really wish they could go with them.
It's not the point whether you want to travel around or not, the main thing is that you can look after your little girl.
A while ago, they heard this girl and the two silly boys conspiring loudly, "The sea is wide enough for fish to leap, and the sky is high enough for birds to fly."
Good guy, what's going on? This means that the world in Kyoto is not vast enough, which affects their performance!
If this girl hadn't brought up "you can't be punished for your words", they would definitely have had a good talk with them about life, ideals and deeds!
In the past, I had no particularly clear feelings about my mother’s worries about her son traveling thousands of miles away.
Although the eldest son grew up outside, he lived with his maternal grandparents and Confucian teacher, so they were not worried.
But the lively, naughty and fearless little daughter in front of them made them scratch their heads!
"Okay! Okay! I've remembered it all! It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. As long as he has enough strength, isn't it easy to fight back?!" Sheng Yuan obediently listened to her parents' instructions and said thoughtfully that she Listened.
Listening to their youngest daughter's serious explanations and additions, Sheng Xiangxun and Zheng felt even more worried for some unknown reason!
"Ahem, you are right!" After Sheng Xiangxun looked at his wife, he reluctantly praised his youngest daughter's understanding, "Of course, it is understandable that children are young and energetic, but... if you... Can be calmer, more steady, more..."
He couldn't speak anymore.
Because his little daughter blinked her big eyes and asked him: "Dad, do these 'more so and so' you said describe us?!"
