The fundamental reason why all the officials are submissive is not because of their conscience, but because of interests.
The reason why they prevented His Majesty from leaving the capital before was ultimately because the interests of the emperor and the interests of the officials were inconsistent.
Although the emperor is the lord of the world, in the eyes of the officials, the emperor is just a scapegoat.
Otherwise, if everyone listens to the emperor, will there still be corrupt officials in the world? How could the dynasty last longer than 300 years?
How could the Han people have the Yongjia Rebellion, the Yiguan's journey south, and the Jingkang Disgrace?
And throughout history, emperors have become addicted to visiting the capital.
As long as the emperor is not blind, he will naturally find local problems.
As long as the emperor is not a fool, he will naturally find a way to solve the problem.
So, the question arises. In the hearts of the people, will everyone still be dissatisfied with an emperor who makes decisions for the people?
The answer is yes, and you will definitely not be dissatisfied.
The people are satisfied, so why are the officials telling lies? Taking public opinion into account?
Without the support of public opinion, how could they compete with the emperor?
If they don't fight with the emperor, where will the money for their popular spicy food come from?
Therefore, it is inevitable for officials to oppose His Majesty's inspection of the world.
As for the emperor’s travel expenses, what does that count?
Have you ever seen an emperor who travels frequently and has a shortage of money in the treasury?
No, there is no shortage at all!
Only those emperors who couldn't even get out of the palace were short of money.
Everyone knows the reason for this, but in front of money, what's the point of being a slave to the country's subjugation?
Anyway, the emperor took the blame for the fall of the country, and he suddenly became the new master's dog.
When the time comes, don’t you have the final say on what to say and what to do?
As for the people who were killed and injured during this period, how important is money in their eyes?
Heroes die on the battlefield, gentlemen are far away from the court, and villains hold high positions. The commonality of history is that even if we know that this is the way to subjugate a country, who can stop it?
Who will stop it?
Being an official is beneficial to the country and the people, and is deeply loved by the people. But personally, you are willing to get along with some gentlemen day and night. When you make a mistake, the other party will criticize you.
Or do you want to be flattered by a group of people? Even if something goes wrong, will someone protect you?
I believe that most choices are the second.
The emperor is also an ordinary person, not a god. He can't tell who is loyal and who is traitorous!
As a human being, the emperor naturally likes to be flattered?
What is good at the top must be good at the bottom.
So everywhere, people who can talk and flatter people go up, and those who really work are only worthy of drinking soup.
In terms of technology, this blocks the development of technology.
If you put it in the officialdom, is that for society? Put down the butcher's knife against corrupt officials, and in the blink of an eye, the whole court will be corrupt.
Putting down the butcher's knife against corrupt officials is the only way to wait for the country's downfall.
"My dear friends, since I have said this, I will say nothing more."
Zhu Youjian said.
Although Zhu Youjian's superficial intention is that this is the end of the matter.
But the implication is that this matter is settled. If you dare to cause trouble when I am not in the capital, then don't blame me for settling the score later.
"I have no destination or plan for this trip. Officials from various places do not need to pick me up and build palaces. Anyone who disobeys the order will be dismissed and will never be hired within three generations!"
Zhu Youjian said.
When you go down to inspect, you need to see the real Ming Dynasty, not the Ming Dynasty whitewashed by hundreds of officials.
Although this order cannot completely prevent local officials from carrying out face-saving projects, it at least gives themselves a barrier to punish them.
At the same time, a tight spell is given to local officials to prevent them from acting recklessly.
