Zhan Hui accepted the order and said yes. He always felt that this sentence was somewhat familiar, as if he had heard it once before.
Soon, the six ministers met, and Zhao Mian of the Ministry of Hubu died after taking advantage of the stolen goods. A series of corrupt officials were kicked off, some were killed, and some were exiled. There were not many people left in the Ministry of Hubu.
Yu Xin, who had been imprisoned by Zhao Mian before, had such a rapid rise. Not only was he exempted from the crime, but he was also promoted to Minister of Household Affairs and officially succeeded Zhao Mian.
Nowadays, the Ministry of Household Affairs is prosperous, and officials have undergone a major change. The atmosphere has changed, and they are all as diligent as chicken blood.
Among them, in addition to the three things that made the new official take office, there is another important reason, and that is the emergence of the Hongwu algorithm, which completely solved the accounting problem that was once difficult to solve.
After Yu Xin learned that Zhao Mian had committed suicide out of fear of crime, he applauded and called His Majesty a sage and His Royal Highness a wise prince.
Then, after getting the Hongwu algorithm, his eyes lit up and he said to Zhan Hui: "With this algorithm, there will be no unsolvable accounts in the Ming Dynasty from now on!"
After Yu Xin took office, in just a few days, he calculated all the past accounts, corrected the redundant and incorrect accounts in the past, and the accounts department became clear for a while.
Now, as soon as they met, Yu Xin couldn't wait to say: "My lords, in the past few days, I have used the Hongwu algorithm given by Your Majesty to go through all the accounts. I am even more grateful to Your Majesty for your sage and wisdom. With this method, you can be safe." The foundation of the Ming Dynasty for all ages!”
"Is the Hongwu algorithm really so magical?"
Ren Hengtai, the Minister of Rites, had been hearing people mention Hongwu's algorithm these days, and he was curious. However, he was in charge of the Ministry of Rites, so the fact that he was in charge of the algorithm had nothing to do with it. Today, when Yu Xin mentioned it, he asked.
"It's more than just a miracle. It's simply a feat of creation. Your Excellencies must also know that the Ministry of Accounts has to calculate a large number of accounts every year. In the past, this matter was time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it may not be accurate."
Yu Xin's face was red and excited, and he continued: "Zhao Mian was able to take advantage of this fact to be so corrupt and corrupt. Now that we have the Hongwu algorithm given by His Majesty, we no longer have to worry about false accounts. I think If you want to commit fraud, you will be found out as soon as you calculate it. Who dares to make a mistake?"
"Your Majesty has the appearance of a heavenly being. I can't wait. The country of Ming Dynasty is now in a prosperous age. You and I must do our best. When it comes to the prosperous age of Hongwu in the future, you and I will also have a share of the credit."
Zhan Hui even told the story of the prosperous age of Hongwu, but the ministers did not feel anything was wrong. Thinking about it carefully, maybe if it takes a few more years, the prosperous age will really come.
When the time comes, these ministers like them will be recorded in the annals of history forever along with the prosperous Hongwu era, just like Sun Wuji, the leader of Wei Zheng, and others during the Zhenguan period, who will leave their names in history!
When they thought of this, all the ministers looked happy. When they turned their heads, they saw Lan Yu, Duke of Ying, Fu Youde, Duke of Ying, Geng Bingwen, Marquis of Changxing, Wang Bi, Marquis of Dingyuan, Guo Ying, Marquis of Wuding, etc. They were immediately shocked. These reckless people What are you doing here?
Zhan Hui recalled His Majesty's previous arrangements, and suddenly thought, maybe this time the Wenhua Palace meeting would not be possible even with these reckless men.
Others are easy to say, but Duke Liang Lan Yu is really unreasonable. The last sentence "I won't ask for your mother's height" is still swirling in Zhan Hui's mind, giving him a headache.
Now that the troublemaker is here again, Zhan Hui feels bored deep in his heart. Although he doesn't show it on his face, there is a hint of impatience and helplessness in his eyes.
Lan Yu, Duke of Liang State, noticed this group of civil servants and couldn't help but talk sarcastically: "The adults are very happy. It seems that they have already figured out how to exclude us people. Damn, you are so scheming. If you want to exclude us, go ahead and dream about your spring and autumn dreams!"
Ren Hengtai, the Minister of Rites, frowned and responded, saying: "Why should Duke Liang be angry? This is the Forbidden City, not the palace of Duke Liang. If you continue to speak rudely like this, it will be an insult to the country. I will not be allowed to speak to you in front of His Majesty!"
"Haha, Duke Liang is just telling the truth. Are you all so eager to start hating me?"
As soon as Dingyuan Marquis Wang Bi spoke, he spoke with a strong sense of ridicule, glanced down, and continued: "I think Liang Guogong is right. You guys just want to exclude dissidents so that you can achieve your impossible goals. The purpose of suing someone.”
Yu Xin did not participate in the last discussion, so he was puzzled by how angry some people were, so he advised: "You are all the pillars of the country. It is shameful to make noise here, so you should go to the Wenhua Hall to discuss the matter first. Your Majesty, Your Highness, will not be impatient."
He carried out Zhu Gaochi, the grandson of the emperor, and temporarily suppressed the fierce quarrel among these people. The group of people disliked each other, walked quickly, and soon entered the Wenhua Hall.
After all, the warriors were still strong and healthy. Even the older Fu Youde walked as fast as flying and entered the Wenhua Palace one step ahead of the civil servants.
"The Duke of Liang, Lan Yu (the Duke of Ying, Fu Youde...), is here to see His Highness Taisun."
Zhu Gaochi, who was sitting upright, raised his eyes, stood up, stretched out his hands for support, and said with a smile: "Excuse me, everyone. I often heard my father mention that the only general who was good at fighting in this world was Duke Ying of the Kingdom of Liang. Now, At first glance, the two princes really live up to their names."
He stretched out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling man, not to mention that the smiling man was Zhu Gaochi, the grandson of the emperor. Although Liang Guogong Lan Yu was reckless, the thing on his neck was not an elm knot after all. He immediately smiled and said: "Your Highness has a sharp eye for talents, even better than Zhan Hui." Hello there."
Dingyuan Marquis Wang Bi stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and thought to himself, Duke Liang, please stop hanging around the half ounce of ink here. Is this thing for use at this time?
Your Highness Taisun is just being polite, why do you take it so seriously?
Furthermore, can't you learn from Ying Guogong Fu Youde and be humble?
Zhu Gaochi obviously didn't expect Liang Guogong Lan Yu to be able to climb the pole so smoothly, and almost got embarrassed. Fortunately, he looked kind and kind, and the slight embarrassment was not visible, and said: "Everyone, please take a seat. No need to be formal.”
The greetings here have been completed, and Zhan Hui and others came in panting. They cursed in their hearts, these reckless men were really unreasonable, and they disappeared in the blink of an eye.
It was extremely rude to dare to be so presumptuous in the forbidden area of the imperial city, but they did not dare to walk too slowly. Their legs were almost spinning and smoking, so they could only follow them.
After entering the Wenhua Hall, Zhan Hui and others first greeted Zhu Gaochi, then sat on the left side and looked at the general on the right with a cold expression.
Zhu Gaochi looked at all this with a smile, and felt more and more that the emperor's grandfather was right. If there were all civil servants in the cabinet and everyone had the same interests, they might conspire to cause something bad.
Now that the Emperor is still here, these guys naturally don't dare to go too far, but what about a hundred years from now when the Emperor is here?
Can future generations be able to suppress these extremely smart ministers?
Zhu Gaochi thought very clearly. He often read history books carefully. It often happened that ministers had too much power and suppressed the emperor.
He didn't dare to gamble. Later generations of ministers would all be Prime Minister Zhuge, who could keep their original aspirations and help the Han Dynasty.
Therefore, there must not be only civil servants in this cabinet, otherwise it will be very troublesome in the future.
With this thought in mind, Zhu Gaochi said: "I have summoned you all to come here today because of the affairs of the cabinet. This matter is of great importance. Sirs, please be sure to open your mouth and make suggestions without being restrained."
