So, each family took a look and found that their own noble concubine was also in the process of visiting relatives, and she was among the first batch. This was definitely the emperor's grace. You must know that these families all relied on the power of their own noble concubine to live their lives. Without the imperial concubine, they are nothing.
The honor and disgrace of the noble concubines in the palace are of vital importance to them. Then these families began to prepare to build provincial relatives' homes. Maybe it was out of comparison, or maybe he had to give the emperor some face. As a result, the large-scale construction of provincial residences became a common practice. It directly promoted the rapid development of Beijing's infrastructure industry.
It's not that I don't understand, our family can save some money by spending less money, but that is disrespectful to the imperial concubine, which is also disrespectful to the emperor.
It was precisely because of this that the emperor issued this gracious edict. This was his stroke of genius and his proud work. It would be better to repair the garden until your family of noble concubines goes bankrupt.
Under this circumstance, the Jia Mansion began to put on the agenda the construction of the Grand View Garden, a provincial residence.
The emperor is also a little proud now, and the nobles in the court are basically used by him. After all, he is a righteous person at this time, and Qinggui is also the most righteous official among them.
Now the vast majority of the DPRK and China are centrists. For truly powerful families, selected officials are centrists, and there is no need for them to risk taking sides in advance.
Whoever ends up in that seat will have to use them. It is risky to take sides in advance, although the emperor has basically decided the overall situation. But this is a major matter related to the fate of yourself and your family, so you have to be cautious. Caution is the boat. Especially in the fight for the throne, are there not many changes?
The Second Mansion of Rongning is a good example. The prince at that time also had great righteousness and had been the prince for so many years. Not that it just fell down.
That is to say, the strength of Rong Ning's second house has declined so much that it was concluded that the person holding the title was close to the prince, and finally ended up like this. The list goes on and on. Of course, gamblers will bet in advance.
It’s best to be stable and be a centrist. The key is to be stable. Isn’t it good that I will be loyal to whoever laughs in the end? The emperor can't do anything to them, they are always on the right path. The emperor also knew this clearly. So he began to gradually gather power.
As for the centrists, they are just outsiders, and the wind blows them both ways. Once he has secured his seat, he will naturally come over. Sooner or later, of course, the premise is that the government is stable. The current situation of the Great Zheng Dynasty is still stable, which means that the emperor's position is still very stable.
The emperor's previous series of operations have consolidated his power. The Supreme Emperor has rarely made any comments recently. I wonder if it is because of his health? Or some other factors.
The Supreme Emperor watched the emperor scold Fang Qiu, and tried to regain his power step by step. The Supreme Emperor also remained silent. Basically there is no reaction and the default attitude is adopted.
Probably the Supreme Emperor also knew that he had only a few years to live. If you treat the emperor better now, you can ask the emperor to give him a better posthumous title after his death.
This may be what the Supreme Emperor thought. People in this era are very concerned about posthumous titles. From the emperor to the ministers, they all care about posthumous titles after death. It is said that after death, one will live in another world.
The posthumous title is related to the amount of incense they enjoy in the other world after death.
The emperor is also a capable man, how can he not manage his country carefully? So, he began to free up his hands and started to govern from the Xungui family.
Most of the noble families have been in decay for a long time. After so many years since the founding of the country, they have died together with the country. How can we not fall into depravity if we enjoy the glory and wealth but gradually lose the desire to make progress?
To deal with the Xungui family, the emperor still adopted the policy of combining pull and fight, which shows that the emperor is cautious. Just like before, Wang Ziteng came to attack the military forces in Rong Ning's second mansion. The vast majority of today's noble people are occupying the latrine and not taking a shit.
Other factions in the court are also happy to see it. The Zheng Dynasty only has so many resources, the cake is so big, and there are so many people sharing it. Everyone is willing to see fewer people sharing the cake. As long as you don't get kicked out.
Although the emperor's move was somewhat effective. But it is also unsatisfactory. The starting point is still to enhance military strength. Since the root cause is still corruption in officialdom, it is necessary to change the soup without changing the medicine.
Some results have been achieved, that is, some completely incompetent and corrupt nobles have been replaced by people they can trust. But the situation of the army did not improve.
The current emperor is still cautious. The Supreme Emperor is still here, so let's put everything aside for now. Or is the position under the buttocks the most important? Besides, are officials so easy to manage? As a result, the DPRK returned to its original state.
At this time, Li Miao, who was discussing the current situation with his mentor in Li Shouzhong's study, suddenly said, "Teacher, if I want to go to Shandong and become the governor of Qingzhou, is there any hope?"
Li Shouzhong was also stunned by Li Miao's sudden words. In Li Shouzhong's opinion, this close disciple of his has a future far better than his own.
Although Li Miao has no chance to show off his skills in the court now, isn't even Li Shouzhong struggling with the situation in the court? But as long as he endures it slowly, Li Miao will have a bright future after staying in the Hanlin Academy for three to five years.
Li Miao doesn't have to do anything now. Once he has the qualifications, he can go to various ministries or stay in the Hanlin Academy. Sooner or later, he will surpass his mentor in his official career.
Besides, Li Miao is only eighteen years old, and his judgment of the court situation is so accurate. Don't worry about making big mistakes. You shouldn't be in such a hurry. Li Shouzhong also knew that his disciples would not act without aim. "What did you think about it?
Li Miao didn't want to hide too much from Li Shouzhong. After all, would he still need his mentor to protect him in the court in the future? "Teacher, you also know that disciples are actually more practical. Qingzhou and even Shandong are the key to my promotion of the seed plan."
Seeing that the teacher was not impatient, Li Miao felt that there was something interesting, and continued: "These are not the key points for the disciples to go to Qingzhou. Qingzhou is close to the sea, and the disciples want to build sea ships. The status of shipping will become higher and higher in the future."
"Besides, in the past few years, the disciples can only endure in the capital. Maybe they can do something useful in Qingzhou." After speaking, Li Miao looked at Li Shouzhong sincerely.
Li Shouzhong kept tapping the table with the index and middle fingers of his right hand, and Li Miao felt that something was going on. Li Shouzhong would only use this habitual action when making important decisions. It seems that Li Shouzhong has the ability to help him. Just weighing the gains and losses.
Regardless of whether Li Shouzhong could help him this time, Li Miao felt even more grateful to the mentor in front of him. The mentor should be thinking about the career of his closed disciple. The "dong dong" sound of clicking on the desktop lasted for a long time.
Li Shouzhong suddenly stood up, as if he had made some important decision. "Okay, then you go back first. You can make some preparations for leaving Beijing first." Li Miao stood up excitedly, and then gave his mentor an affectionate hug.
It feels so good to be protected by someone. This hug is a true thank you to Li Shouzhong. In later generations, this hug should not be out of place between teachers and students, but at this time, Li Shouzhong was very uncomfortable with it.
When Li Miao walked out of the study, he heard Li Shouzhong keep saying, "What a decent thing this is, what a decent thing it is...".
Li Miao did not hear any blame in his mentor's tone.
