"What Chengmiao said is that it is not allowed to be profound and considerate. It is not allowed to follow the system of "Da Gao" and it is not allowed to encourage people to sue officials."
"I am just asking about the public sentiment. As for whether the person accused of the crime is guilty or not guilty, I will still know it after being interrogated by the Tribunal of Justice."
"You don't have to worry about false accusations."
"What's more, if there are really evil people who deliberately fabricate a large number of reports to burden me, and I really have the energy to deal with them, then naturally I won't have to rely on the ministers?"
Zhu Yijun said and asked about Shen Shixing.
Shen Shixing held up his hands and said: "What your Majesty said is just this. I ask your Majesty to order the eldest son of the emperor to study early, so as to prevent future generations of unworthy officials from deceiving the emperor and being unwise, and even more powerful and harmful to others!"
"Not only is it necessary to order students to study early, but a complete system for cultivating the prince must be put in place!"
"It's just that sometimes even if the crown prince decides according to etiquette, God will inevitably take away his will. What do you think you should do?"
Zhu Yijun asked.
Shen Shixing handed over his hand again: "What your Majesty is concerned about is that the other emperor's heirs can only study and train together. If you are a king, you can maintain the prosperity of the world forever; if you are a vassal, you can observe etiquette and know the rules and be less likely to be fooled by recent fortune." "
"I'm afraid that my ambition will be ignited by my enlightenment."
Zhu Yijun said.
"Your Majesty, please believe that all the people in the world will be enlightened under the influence of the new rituals!"
"And in this case, except for a few treacherous villains, most of the subjects will not want the country to be divided and allow the conspiracy of the ambitious to succeed. What's more, the emperor's heirs have received a righteous education. I believe that the smarter they are, the more they will understand that the most important thing is self-restraint. "
Shen Shixing replied.
Zhu Yijun nodded: "Family, country and world! As long as there is a family, a country and a world, there will inevitably be disputes. I know it is inevitable, but if the country keeps on becoming more and more powerful, such disputes will surely become less intense."
"Your Majesty, you are wise! Rich people know etiquette. If the country becomes richer, everyone will know etiquette better, and the royal family and nobles will be more willing to follow etiquette and be benevolent without being hostile!"
Shen Shixing replied.
Zhu Yijun laughed: "In this case, the master will discuss with the ministers in the political hall how to improve the system for the emperor's heirs to study outside the cabinet. If at what age do they need to start studying, what content should be studied, and what standards should be met? The matter is established. Then what kind of special education should be given to the prince will be discussed and the cabinet will submit it to me for review."
"According to the order!"
After Shen Shixing received the decree, he returned to the Imperial Palace. After seeing the ministers, he told Sun Jigao: "Listen to both sides and you will be enlightened. If you listen to one side, you will be dark. On the grounds that your majesty wants to accept people's opinions and is fully aware of the customs and administration of officials, he plans to Your Majesty's decree to conquer the world is an imperial edict, and he also adds that if there is any injustice, he will be heard by the judicial department."
Sun Jigao raised his hand and said yes.
At this time, Second Assistant Pan Sheng asked: "So, Your Majesty still insists on encouraging people to sue officials?"
Shen Shixing nodded and said with a smile: "Your Majesty trusts the rulers, so he dares to do this. Therefore, I asked your Majesty to strengthen the education of the emperor's heirs. Your Majesty has approved the servant's suggestion and passed it on to all our rulers to discuss how to improve the education of the emperor's heirs." Institutions and content.”
"That's good. The people are allowed to sue the officials, not because they are really afraid that the people will blackmail the officials, or even the officials will coerce the people into fighting each other, but because they are afraid that the future emperor will be unknown, and the ministers will use this to engage in party conflicts, and think that All the officials should be killed."
Pan Sheng said after hearing this.
Qi Jiguang also followed up and said: "Yes, although the people only report all matters to the emperor, the final trial and conviction must still come from the minister. After all, it is difficult for the emperor to investigate the clues carefully. Therefore, this will strengthen the power of the minister, and I am afraid that future generations will Your Majesty may not be willing to let your ministers use public opinion to force the Emperor, but if the monarchs in future generations are all as sage and wise as Your Majesty, this will not happen."
"Since we are required to discuss and improve the content of the Pope's heirs, it is better to take this opportunity to use practical learning and new etiquette as the main content to inspire the emperor's heirs, so as to prevent future kings from not following the reality and falling back on the old etiquette."
Wang Xijue said.
Shen Shixing smiled and said, "That's exactly what I meant!"
"Because I am worried that Your Majesty may not really be willing to let his heir suffer the hardship of studying, I dare not be good at speaking. Now that the emperor wants to make the Han people the world's eyes and ears, there is no doubt that those who can speak are not only limited to scholar-bureaucrats, but also directly like in the early days of the country. Reaching the common people is equivalent to tearing down the imperial city, allowing the common people to speak to the emperor, and we bureaucrats will have nothing to hide. Under such circumstances, strengthening the education of the emperor's heirs can take this opportunity to educate new students. The new gift has been accepted by the emperor since he was a child, so naturally it is nothing."
Chen Jingbang, Minister of the Ministry of War, couldn't help but smile after hearing what Shen Shixing said.
But he didn't say anything. When he saw Zhao Nanxing next, he asked with a face: "What's going on? Zhang Siwen actually took charge of Nanzhenfu, and the emperor even encouraged the people to sue the officials! Didn't you ask the emperor to bring him to power?" Will he be placed in a high-level position as a sinecure?"
Zhao Nanxing sighed: "I originally played it like this, but after the imperial prelude, I suddenly woke up; it is not the right way to win over the scholars with profit and salary, so that they can have the opportunity to serve the country, which is the right way. After all, he Zhang Siwen is indeed a gentleman!"
"It doesn't matter whether he is a gentleman or not, but as long as he is the son of Taiyue, then he cannot be a close minister in Jinyi! Otherwise, the entire scholarly community will be uneasy!"
Chen Jingbang waved his sleeves and said with an angry face.
Zhao Nanxing said: "When I talked with him, Siwen promised not to argue with the gentleman. I think we can rest assured!"
"What's more, your Majesty is right. It is better to have a gentleman serve as a close minister than to have a villain serve as a close minister. And his successor was able to keep his career and fame when his father was in the country. After that, he was worried and abided by his filial piety. Now he comes to Beijing. He is not resentful because many officials and gentry among the scholars conspired to liquidate his family. He can be said to be modest, virtuous, and magnanimous, and is a gentleman! Therefore, there is no need to worry that he is a close minister and will make the scholar uneasy. On the contrary, the scholar should be regarded as being a close official. Only ministers who are close to you will be more at peace."
Chen Jingbang raised his hand angrily and wanted to point at Zhao Nanxing and say something, but in the end he put his hand down. In the end, he just snorted and left Zhao Nanxing unhappy.
"Why is the father-in-law so angry?!"
"If he really does something villainous in Jinyiwei, it won't be too late for us to remonstrate him?!"
Zhao Nanxing couldn't help but shout loudly when he saw this, and then saw that Chen Jingbang ignored him, so he had to shake his head helplessly, and then came to Zhang Jingxiu's place.
Zhang Jingxiu heard that Zhao Nanxing wanted to see him and welcomed him in.
As soon as Zhao Nanxing saw Zhang Jingxiu, he raised his hands and bowed: "I came here to apologize to Tishuai. The emperor in front of the emperor scolded me for the villainous behavior I did before. I deeply regret it. Now I heard that Tishuai has returned home, so I came here specially." Apologize, please don’t blame Ti Shuai!”
"Bu Lang doesn't have to be like this!"
Zhang Jingxiu hurriedly supported Zhao Nanxing, and after saying something, he said: "I don't blame Bulang, because I also believe that Bulang is a gentleman. As I said, I will not argue with a gentleman!"
"Ti is so handsome and generous that I can't match him!"
Zhao Nanxing said with more confidence.
After Zhao Nanxing left Zhang's house, Zhang Jingxiu's face darkened, he smiled coldly, and then asked Zhang Maoxiu: "Have you found out everything?"
"Find out!"
"We have found out the details of all the serving Imperial Guard officers, including those who are not doing their job. Wherever they are now, we have found out!"
