"Your Highness wants to reverse the unfavorable public opinion situation through this debate on whether the censor should be convicted? To achieve the purpose of clearing his name."
Zhu Houzhao did have this idea, "Yes. But it's more than that. Sir, do you still remember the question I once asked you? My father is a wise king in the government, and there are good ministers in the court to assist him. However, the world is still full of evils. What is the way out? Where? Compared to the answer to this question, a few words about killing or not killing are really not worth mentioning."
Wang Hao thought thoughtfully, "...This is to establish another faction."
You finally understand.
In fact, it can be expressed in six words using modern language to clearly define the guiding ideology.
Now the entire public opinion atmosphere is stuck in the vicious circle of gentlemen and villains, and they cannot get out of it. Why does the country have problems? Ah, there are villains. How to solve it, ah, change the gentleman.
What is this called?
"I will give you four words." Zhu Houzhao went to pick up the pen and wrote down, "Seek truth from facts. Its meaning is very simple but not easy. It means to say one thing, what is it? Where is the problem? What is the impact of this problem? What is it? How can it be solved? We must find practical solutions based on the facts."
He thought for a while, "Let me give you an example. Ah, yes, it was the time I left the palace. Mr. Wu said that my leaving the palace was a big deal, so he found a few people to complain to the emperor. But in the end, Yu Does it have any impact on the court and the people? No, right? In this case, important officials of the court focus on this, what’s the point?”
"Another example is the position of chief commander of the northwest. How to select this person should take into account the actual situation in the northwest. How can it be decided based on whether he is Li Guang's person?"
"Let me say one more thing, moral character. Our officials talk about this word every day, but can moral character keep the Tatars from violating the border? No? So how to solve this problem? Mr. Wang, think for yourself, do you subconsciously think of moral character? People who don’t have enough skills will never be able to achieve success at the border? But is this really the case? If I put a Taoist gentleman in Datong, Datong’s soldiers and horses will be invincible? "
Wang Hao was listening and thinking deeply.
He felt that what the prince said was important. In fact, he felt it himself. Especially after being an official for so many years.
"I understand what Your Highness means. The books of saints can be used for reading, but they cannot be used for doing things."
Zhu Houzhao clapped his hands and said, "Yes, but I can't preach this loudly, otherwise it will cause the earth to collapse. I can only guide you step by step. What you have to do is to develop a persuasive plan." To gather more like-minded people with us, the world cannot rely on just us, right? And to be honest with you, Wang Hao, I have really had enough quarrels with these people."
It’s not like there’s anything wrong with that. Who likes to quarrel every day with a bunch of people who have been brainwashed by Confucianism?
"I understand, I understand. It's just that such lectures may take a long time to be effective."
"No rush, I have time and more patience."
It's amazing that I waited for him for five or eight years.
It must be done anyway.
In fact, it is really not difficult to change a few officials. The father-son relationship between Emperor Hongzhi and him was rare in ancient times, and he obeyed his words. The problem is that if you change to the top pick, you will still be the top pick, which makes no sense.
….
Once you understand this section, the rest will be simple.
Zhang Tianrui hung the sign of the academy on the gate, cleaned the halls and courtyards, found a well-known doctor, and selected a dozen children with innocent family backgrounds. The teaching of the medical school has actually begun. .
Zhu Houzhao asked for uniform uniforms to be customized for them. These are of positive significance, such as enhancing cohesion and sense of honor. Anyway, the one set will be adopted by later generations.
This is to show the common people and low-level officials in the capital that the current prince has to do things for the common people.
Hidden inside are the matters that Wang Hao is responsible for.
In accordance with the decree of the East Palace, Wang Hao published an article on the third day after returning to Beijing, explaining in detail why Qian Gui, Zhao Muyong and others should be severely punished.
At the same time, he began to give lectures in the academy. He was originally a member of the generation
Everyone, what Zhu Houzhao said was "seeking truth from facts," but he later changed it to "managing the world for practical purposes," which means managing world affairs in a practical way. What they object to is the unrealistic and empty learning of Neo-Confucians.
This is actually the academic thought of Gu Yanwu and others during the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
Zhu Houzhao didn't have that deep knowledge in this area. He just felt that it was similar to what he expressed, so he adopted Wang Hao's opinion, and he allowed him to play with the details.
In this way,
As expected, there were waves in Beijing.
After Wang Hao's memorial was passed, other officials from other departments or officials from various ministries submitted refutations.
Of course, Wang Hao was by no means alone. For example, Wang Hua, the right emissary of Zhan Shifu, and Shi Daishan, the left capital censor, also began to write articles to support Wang Hao.
Dai Shan's officials have committed crimes. If he insists that they made mistakes and should not be punished, this... doesn't make sense. For those who don't know, you might think you are guilty and want to excuse yourself.
Emperor Hongzhi had a headache while reading the memorial in the Qianqing Palace, but he knew that as long as there was controversy about anything, the emperor would not be afraid.
Because in this way the civil service group will be divided.
It was Qian Gui who was still in prison and lost hope.
He originally thought that he was a royal censor, and his status as a Yanguan could protect him. Even if he was imprisoned now, the court would definitely be a bloody mess, and he didn't know how many people wanted to save him.
But in the end, the eunuch who came to deliver the order actually gave him a nightmarish eight words: remove him from his official position and never hire him again!
The Jin Yiwei beside him was numb when he saw this scene.
Qian Gui, who was dressed in prison uniform, had lost his former grace, and the chains on his hands were dangling and rattling. From his point of view, it was really aggrieved. His purpose that day was also for the imperial court!
"Qian Gui, why don't you accept the order to thank me?!"
"Convicted minister, thank you for your grace." These words were spoken in a tearful tone.
But the eunuch was not a sympathetic person. In the end, he did not forget to remind him, "Qian Gui, I won't argue with you this time. When you go out, remember that you are no longer a minister."
"Yes. The grass people...remembered."
When I came out of Jinyiwei prison,
Liu Qianhu, who had originally captured him, gave him another heavy blow, "After you leave here, don't think that we will never meet again. You scholars, you are full of pain from reading, I advise you to pick up one If you are destined to return to your hometown, live a good life, but don't be unable to control yourself and talk nonsense."
….
Qian Gui looked at the figure in the shadow and said, "Thank you, sir, for reminding me."
Literati, sometimes they feel aggrieved and write poems to scold those in power.
You have to take it easy.
So far,
Zhu Houzhao still felt that it was not enough. He thought that he should start a newspaper as a mouthpiece to vigorously promote some of his theories and practices in the future. The prince really wanted to serve the people, and he must not let these Neo-Confucian people turn him into a fool. image.
So this matter is also being planned.
While there was such heated discussion in Beijing,
Gu Dayong sent all the letters from the Shandong garrison eunuch You Zhi and the East Palace reprimanding Yang Tinghe to the prefecture's Yamen in Qingzhou Prefecture.
At first, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to achieve the purpose of mutual restraint of provincial officials by separating the three powers of the inspector-general, the administrative envoy and the capital commander. However, in the actual political operation later, these three envoys were not effective. The key was to rely on the governor. , the general soldier, and the guarding eunuch.
The reason for guarding eunuchs is because the emperor did not trust the generals with heavy troops, so he sent eunuchs to monitor him.
Therefore, the duties of the guarding eunuchs are very important.
With his support, it should be able to help Yang Tinghe a lot.
But when he saw Eunuch You with this letter, Yang Tinghe felt uncomfortable. It was obvious that the prince was a little dissatisfied with him, and he had to step up his efforts.
And that Youzhi occupies a high position, and a prefect cannot ask him to pay much attention to it, even if he is from the prince.
You run errands for the prince, and I run errands for the prince. Where did you go?
"The Emperor and His Highness the Crown Prince wish that this time the land will be divided.
The distribution must be in place, and the decree has also been issued to our family. We are required to support this situation for you no matter what. Magistrate Yang, our family is here to ask you, do you have any big difficulties? "
The situation in Leshan County was tense and not optimistic. Yang Tinghe did not dare to hide it, "Back to Eunuch You, there are three large families in Leshan County who want to take back the fields they gave to Qi Kuan. The magistrate of Leshan County does not agree, and my subordinates are afraid that those people will be interested. Obstruction."
Gu Dayong, who had a broad face and broad shoulders, said: "When His Highness sent the slaves here, he was worried that someone would try to interfere with them and take the opportunity to cause chaos and cause trouble for Magistrate Yang."
You Zhi heard that there was such a good reason.
Immediately he got off the donkey along the slope and said, "Your Highness must be right. Magistrate Yang, let's go to Leshan County right now and see who is doing this in disguise!"
You Zhi, the guarding eunuch, is very dignified and seems to be an extremely loyal slave.
In fact, when Gu Dayong came to find him, he was both surprised and happy.
To be honest, the most envied eunuch in the world right now is Liu Jin.
That guy who was so lucky got the job of taking care of the prince. When the prince ascends the throne in the future, will his position as the Supervisor of Ceremonies be omitted? Although he is still inconspicuous now, they will have to kneel down when they see him in the future.
Who doesn’t want that kind of majesty?
Civil servants can resign, and they can return to their families if they resign. But for people like them who have no roots, the palace is their only home. So for You Zhi, as long as he can climb up to the crown prince, those who suppressed him in the past will not matter.
Zhu Houzhao also figured out the eunuch's mentality and had the confidence to immediately ask Gu Dayong to find this person.
….
Now it's better. Once the local guarding eunuch comes out, there is no reason why he can't borrow the soldiers from the inspection envoy's yamen.
And in Leshan County,
Han Ziren, the county magistrate, personally presided over the matter of allocating the fields, but what was terrible was that the people he sent out actually encountered those people who were mobilized. Hundreds of them moved together, collided with the people who were allocating the fields, and even injured those who had been following. Mr. Huang from Han Ziren.
As a result, wherever the land is divided, someone will destroy it, and the matter will naturally not be implemented.
Han Ziren was furious,
He also made a fool of himself. He actually dared to make up his mind to arrest those farmers who looked honest, and took them all back to the prison for interrogation in person. "Tell me! Is the man surnamed Zhao behind this?"
It's not impossible for Magistrate Han to send people to arrest people directly, but it seems that such big companies are related and protected by people above him. If he can't get evidence, he can't win the lawsuit.
It was at this time,
The county magistrate came to report to him that the magistrate was here.
Han Ziren ordered: "You continue to interrogate him and kick him dishonestly. He will not die! The labor and management will not believe him and cannot ask for a name!"
After explaining this, he left the cell to greet him. When he arrived in front of the hall, he saw that the prefect was here, and even the eunuchs from the East Palace were here!
"Han Ziren, our family heard that your land allocation is not going smoothly here. Is there someone deliberately obstructing it?!" You Zhi is an impatient person. He is eager to get people's heads to claim credit from the East Palace.
Han Ziren said without hesitation, "Back to my father-in-law, someone is indeed causing trouble. My subordinates have arrested several thieves who caused trouble and are interrogating them! As soon as the rightful owner is found out, they will be handed over to my father-in-law immediately."
"Is there anyone who doubts the true master?" Gu Dayong asked.
"There are a few families, and it's not a suspicion. The subordinates can almost confirm that it is them. It's just that they are all famous surnames in Leshan County for decades. Their influence is so intertwined that the common people hardly dare to offend them, and the subordinates have not found them yet. evidence."
Gu Dayong turned to You Zhi and said, "Eunuch You, His Highness was in such a hurry when we left the capital."
The meaning of this statement is obvious.
You Zhi rolled his eyes and said to Han Ziren: "Stop interrogating those who caused trouble. Just arrest the real owners and interrogate them! If you arrest the wrong person, let him go. What does it matter?"
This is really in line with what eunuchs would say if they cause trouble...
Han Ziren looked at Yang Tinghe.
What else could Yang Tinghe say? The prince had just reprimanded him, "His Royal Highness's will is very clear. The fields must be allocated in place. If there are local situations that interfere with it, they will be captured on the spot. If there are officials who collude with large households to allocate the fields secretly, then they will be captured on the spot." Investigate and deal with them together. This time, not only Eunuch You, but also His Majesty sent Jin Yiwei to secretly investigate. With such intensity, we must give an explanation within ten months. Therefore, Magistrate Han, no matter what, we have to do this! "
Han Ziren's brain was filled with blood when he heard it! These words sound so exciting!
As long as there is this determination from above, unless any vassal king in Shandong raises an army to rebel! Otherwise, who can stop it?
But there is a rebellion in this place close to the capital? It is impossible to succeed!
During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong, the Han King Zhu Gaoxu also wanted to imitate Emperor Taizong and try to calm him down. As a result, he couldn't even get out of Qingzhou Prefecture. He didn't fight a single battle, and his gathered troops dispersed after being frightened.
Including the two vassal rebellions during the Zhengde period, they were extinguished so quickly that the Zhu Houzhao in history was very unhappy, because he just wanted to be a general and fight a war, but he was still on the way. , the local magistrate finished all his work!
So much so that he ordered Wang Shouren to act with him again.
Because there were so many ridiculous things like this, civil servants didn't think highly of him.
After all, Zhu Di put in place a whole set of systems to guard against these princes, and the Ming Dynasty would not be destroyed in the middle period. After all, Hongzhi is known as the master of ZTE, and everything is stable. Even if the time travelers come and want to rebel, it will not be easy.
"Come here!"
"Here!" There were soldiers led by them outside the county government office.
Eunuch You stopped talking nonsense and pointed at Han Ziren, "Zhixian Han, lead the way and arrest all those misers who want money rather than their lives! Do you think Qingzhou Prefecture is a desert in the north? If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince fails to comply with his orders, this will happen. Are you going to rebel?!"
"yes!"
Han Ziren's blood was already hot, so he turned around and walked out. On the way out, he bumped into the bearded Qianhu official, but he was in a good mood and put his arms around him, saying, "You are so powerful." !」
