To be more precise, He Yi was the only one who was leisurely and leisurely.
Gao Yao and Wang Xian don't show it on the surface, but they are beating the drum in their hearts.
He Yi took a sip of tea and smiled at the two of them: "Look at this place, Guanxin Pavilion. It's really nice. It's halfway up the mountain. If you look closer, you'll see the extremely clear Mirror Lake; if you look far away, you'll see the mirror lake. Wanshou Mountain and Kunming Lake are like landscape paintings.
Looking not far away, you can see the aura of Yuquan Mountain.
If there is still some fog, sitting here will feel like you are in a fairyland. You can not only observe the scenery, but also observe your mind. It is really wonderful. "
Gao Yao heard this and asked curiously: "Guanxin Pavilion, this name is indeed clever and appropriate. Could it be that it was named by Brother Ji Fang?"
Gao Yao instinctively thought that it was the theme of the last Tanhuayue. He Yizheng was about to shake his head when he heard a clear and sweet laughter coming from outside the pavilion: "It is not Tanhualang's praise, but the three characters of Guanxin Pavilion were inscribed by my concubine." , making all the talented people laugh."
Everyone turned around quickly, only to see a stunningly beautiful lady coming out from behind the rocks along the path.
Upon seeing this, the three of them stood up and saluted. Gao Yao and Wang Xian even wanted to kneel down.
Su Xi quickly dissuaded her: "We are in our own home, so there is no need to be polite. Everyone is sitting down. I came just in time, and I also asked the bachelor for a sip of tea."
He Yi said with a smile: "I don't dare to be a 'beggar' to the Empress Xiang Fei. This tea was originally a reward from the Empress."
After saying that, He Yi gave up the main position.
Su Xi was not polite and sat down to drink a cup of tea, chatting and laughing with the three of them for a few moments before handing the imperial edict to He Yi and saying goodbye.
Wang Xian is young but courageous. He dares to think and speak.
As soon as Su Xi left, Wang Xian complained to He Yi: "Brother Xingyi, do you think those ministers in the city are mentally ill? What a good lady she is. Why do the ministers insist on destroying her? "
He Yi smiled and said: "These fifteen empresses only recognize His Majesty, and the ministers can't control it. Can they be happy?"
Wang Xian heard this and praised: "Your Majesty's methods are really clever. He manages his palace so that needles cannot penetrate it and water cannot penetrate it. No wonder those ministers are anxious."
"Hey, don't worry about them. Let's see what orders are in His Majesty's edict."
Wang Xian and Gao Yao nodded and took a closer look together.
After Gao Yao read it, he immediately praised: "Good governance, this is good governance. Since the Zhengtong Dynasty, Emperor Gong asked eunuchs to stay in Hepu, Leizhou and other places for a long time, forcing the pearl people to work hard to collect pearls.
These eunuchs took the opportunity to extort public and private money, break their bones and suck out their marrow, making the local people miserable.
And even if they were just fishing for pearls, these eunuchs relied on the emperor's support to do all kinds of evil and unscrupulous things in the local area. No one dared to take care of it, so they had to be allowed to interfere in local affairs.
It would be really bad luck to have them on the stall. "
He Yi and Wang Xian both nodded repeatedly. There were three major dangers to the place: eunuchs, vassal kings, and foreign relatives.
Although the gentry, powerful men, merchants, and wealthy households also caused harm to the local area, at least they were restrained. As long as local government agencies at all levels are serious, they will dare to control these people.
However, eunuchs, vassal kings, and foreign relatives and nobles are all incomprehensible, and local officials have no control at all.
So Zhu Qiyu went to the extreme and removed everything he could. There were some eunuchs with good character, but the moral standards of most eunuchs could not be expected at all.
First remove the eunuchs, then cut down the vassal king, and finally deal with some of the relatives.
This is Zhu Qiyu’s reform roadmap. The persimmons look for the softest ones first.
The big laziness makes the little lazy, so He Yi handed the emperor's edict to Gao Yao and asked Gao Yao to finish his tea and go back to draft the edict.
Gao Yao asked again: "Brother Xingyi, there are rumors that His Majesty is seriously ill. This..."
He Yi waved his hand: "Ting Jian, are you stupid? Didn't you see Xiang Fei just now? Her face was rosy and her eyebrows were affectionate. Didn't she look like your Majesty was seriously ill?"
"Oh, that's right. Brother Xingyi is still thoughtful, and it was my younger brother who was negligent."
Gao Yao loved reading and didn't care much about men and women. He suddenly realized it after He Yi reminded him so bluntly.
He Yi stood up and said with a smile: "Don't discuss the emperor's personal affairs. Let's go to work quickly. When we return to Feng Pavilion, don't talk nonsense. Just treat it as if His Majesty is sick."
Gao Yao and Wang Xian, who had confidence in their hearts, nodded repeatedly. The three of them returned to Fengge together, and soon drafted the edict and sent it to the cabinet.
Today's imperial edict formulation process is complex and confusing.
The cabinet can draft decrees, and so can the emperor's ministers.
The decrees drafted by the cabinet need the emperor's approval, and the decrees drafted by the emperor's close ministers need to be forwarded to the cabinet.
This decree had to be passed back and forth through the Supervisor of Ceremonies.
But fortunately, as long as it is confirmed to be the imperial edict, no one dares to refute it. Soon, many edicts went through the process of the cabinet and the Supervisor of Ceremonies and were officially issued.
It turned out that the officials had won a big victory, and the censors from the Metropolitan Procuratorate were gathering together to celebrate, and they were planning to go to a restaurant for a drink in the evening.
As a result, when the emperor's edict arrived, the atmosphere suddenly became very awkward.
Everyone looked at Yang Shan with complicated eyes.
Back then, Yang Shan betrayed his friends to seek glory, resulting in the innocent deaths of brothers Zhang Pu and Zhang Zongjian.
This incident is an indelible stain on Yang Shan's life.
Every time Yang Shan opposed the emperor, the emperor would issue an edict and order Yang Shan to pay homage to the Zhang brothers on behalf of the emperor. This time there was one more item, requiring Yang Shan to visit in person to express condolences to the descendants of the Zhang brothers.
This is called murder and killing one's heart.
Zhu Qiyu is obviously disgusted with Yang Shan. Yang Shan could see it himself, and so could all the civil and military officials.
But it seems to be useless. If you say you won't go, you are openly defying the order. If you openly resist the decree, the emperor can justly push you to the market entrance and chop off your head.
And no one can stand up and say that the emperor is wrong.
Then you have to go, but if you go once, you will lose yourself once, and then you will not be able to hold your head up in front of your colleagues, and your momentum will automatically drop by half.
Although it was difficult for the censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to ridicule Yang Shan in front of him, they all moved their feet in unison and secretly stayed away from Yang Shan.
There is no way. Although everyone is originally on the same position, your moral shortcomings are too obvious and serious.
Censor Yanguan, the most important thing is to be upright and not afraid of slanting shadows.
As an official, you are a scumbag yourself, so why should you impeach others?
As soon as this edict came out, even the most die-hard confidants of Emperor Gongrang no longer dared to get close to Yang Shan openly.
Wang Wen saw the funny movements and expressions of everyone from a distance, smiled knowingly, turned around and went to the Criminal Department.
As luck would have it, when Wang Wen arrived at the Ministry of Punishment, the emperor's order also arrived, instructing the Ministry of Punishment to cooperate with the Royal Horse Supervisor to raid Jin Ying's party.
Without further ado, in order to prevent Jin Ying's gang members from transferring their wealth, the Royal Horse Prison and the Criminal Department took action that day, and the capital became lively again.
Generally, eunuchs with some dignity have outhouses.
Jin Ying's influence in the inner court was deeply entangled, and he had numerous disciples and descendants.
Therefore, there was a huge commotion. Inside and outside the imperial city, chickens were flying, dogs were jumping, and people were panicked.
Zhu Qizhen was eating dinner, and Xing'an hurriedly reported all the news he had received.
Zhu Qizhen asked curiously: "These edicts were issued by the emperor himself? Does the emperor have anything to say about the selection of queens and concubines?"
Xing'an shook his head: "Our people have no information about Feng Pavilion at all, and have no way of knowing whether the emperor personally issued the edict.
Regarding the selection of concubines, there was not even a word mentioned in the edict. It neither said it was okay nor said it was not okay. "
Zhu Qizhen frowned when he heard this. This was strange. What on earth was his good brother doing?
Sometimes, the more information you get, the more confused you become.
Zhu Qizhen put his hand on his forehead, feeling a little headache from thinking about it, so he told Xing'an: "Go and summon Yang Shan to see him again."
Xing'an shook his head again: "Your Majesty, Yang Shan can't come. The emperor once again issued an order for Yang Shan to pay homage to brothers Zhang Pu and Zhang Zongjian, and to visit his descendants in person.
Yang Shan was so ashamed that he ran away home early before the end of class. "
Xing'an explained the cause and effect in detail, which made Zhu Qi Zhen shake his head: "When Yang Shan went to Wala as an envoy, he looked loyal and patriotic, but he didn't expect his character to be so poor.
Will such a person be loyal to the emperor if he even betrays his friends?
Why is my life so miserable? Who are the ministers under me?
San Yang was like that, Wang Zhen was devalued as worthless by the government and the public, Hu Hui died, and Wang Zhi became an official. Yu Qian just appeared in front of me. He has been in charge of Shanxi for nineteen years. He has made Shanxi's defense line impregnable and has tricked me to death.
Now there is Yang Shan, who looks loyal but is actually a despicable villain.
Tell me, who can I rely on now? Which minister can I count on?
It can't be Zou Gan, the Minister of Etiquette, huh, he's a clown, and he can't handle a gentle blow from his younger brother. "
When Xing'an heard this, he looked at Zhu Qizhen in surprise. It turned out that the prince from home also knew that Zou Qian, the Minister of Rites, was a clown.
