Yan Song couldn't help but look at Yuan Zonggao amidst the chorus of shouts.
He's already sixty-eight, and there's still time to soar into the sky!
Who gave you the chance? Emperor!
But the reason is so valid: although the emperor knows that they have knots in their hearts, as long as they can retain their opinions and continue to be loyal. Letting Yuan Zonggao handle this matter was not just a matter of obedience. It was because so many people were unwilling to handle this matter, and the emperor did not want to embarrass them. Otherwise, as they said, they were worried about Youyou Qingshi's comments, wouldn't it be like pressing their necks and letting them get scolded?
Now the emperor also gave Yan Song the opportunity to be the first official of the new dynasty!
Standing at forty, Yan Song stood up, holding the pen of Living Notes.
When you meet an emperor who doesn't care what his behavior is in his daily notes, how can this official be a good job?
I have been with you for a long time, but just writing straightly is a credit.
There is no need to fight for anything, and there is no need to get involved with anything.
Just remember it and that’s it!
When His Majesty has a deep impression on the daily life minister who is always by his side, will the cabinet still be far away from him?
The excitement of the court is not over yet. As soon as Zhu Houcong said these words, Guo Xun and others' faces froze.
There are so many cuts, what can we do to help you win?
On the other hand, the civil servants suddenly lost their dejection and knelt down excitedly, calling for the Holy Spirit.
The matter of succession and unification has come to an end. After switching to the next topic, Mao Cheng's imprisonment for prosecution seemed to have happened again.
Who is Mao Cheng? Oh, it's already a crime for the common people.
And how much of an achievement is it to eliminate more than 120,000 illegal workers in one fell swoop? Who will host? Who will give advice?
Yang Tinghe naturally went out to state his strategy: who should take charge of this matter, and how to arrange the money and food saved after the abolition this year. Your Majesty, you have decided to lay off more than 120,000 people today. It is really good governance, but there are many places where money needs to be spent. The cabinet has also read Chen Jin's memorandum. Qian Ning, Jiang Bin and his family background are not suitable for such hasty arrangements...
Yan Song remembered this and sighed silently in his heart: He can move freely, your Majesty and all the officials can move freely!
As expected, the emperor already had his cards in hand!
After today's criticism of the ministers, the reinstatement of the daily affairs office, the establishment of the internal affairs department, and the removal of Mao Cheng and many officials on the matter of discussing rituals, the emperor had just aroused some emotions in the military ministers, and then brought up The issue of abolishing the corrupt officials and troops.
This incident will harm the noble ministers and generals, but it will make the civil servants and the people praise good governance.
I haven't seen Wei Bin, Gu Dayong, and Zhang Yong today. Could it be that the emperor has suppressed them and all the ministers and generals, and is this matter already certain?
Yang Tinghe also began to use the issue of abolition and abuse to bring up the topic of court expenditures, and by the way expressed his dissatisfaction with the plan proposed by Chen Jin.
Among those previously impeached by Zhang Jiuxu was Chen Jin, the censor of Zuodu.
Zhu Houcong waited for Yang Tinghe to finish his speech before he spoke again: "I know about the many difficulties in money and food. We will discuss the matter of Qian Ning Jiang Bin's lack of family assets later. Let me talk about it first. I only found out after checking the accounts of the internal transportation warehouse. Brother Xin has a secret storehouse, which contains more than four million taels of silver. This is to imitate the previous dynasty's move to seal the warehouse to reserve food and wages for eradicating border troubles in one fell swoop in the future. According to Wei Bin and others' report, this is the emperor's brother knowingly re-establishing the storehouse. Situations that will inevitably occur when training elites from the Beijing camp, after all, there will be a selection process."
"Therefore, the emperor brother has been asking Wei Bin, Zhang Yong, Gu Dayong and others to pay attention to the rogue incident. It is the emperor's legacy that I can know the truth about the rogue officers and soldiers in Beijing so quickly. I will wait until the Beijing camp is re-selected to be invincible. The emperor's brother would have taken advantage of the situation to eliminate the powerful army, and he also had a generous reserve of military pay. However, Qian Ning, Jiang Bin and others have betrayed the trust of the emperor over the years, so that the number of the emperor's troops has reached more than 100,000. "
"Now the trend of abuse must be stopped. Since Qian Ning and Jiang Bin have been imprisoned, it is also a mistake for Wei Bin and others not to fully report their harm to the emperor for many years. Remembering that he has worked hard to serve the emperor for many years, I have written about Wei Bin , Gu Dayong resigned and was transferred to the internal officials and the palace supervisor, and when they have done their last loyalty to the emperor brother, they will go to guard the imperial mausoleum."
The honorable ministers and generals were dumbfounded, and the civil servants all knelt down and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty is wise!"
The foolish king that Mao Cheng and others scolded just now seems to have become a joke.
If more than 120,000 people were laid off at one go, how much food would be saved? This is worth bragging about.
Now Wei Bin and Gu Dayong have been demoted to the inner official prison and the divine palace prison. Doesn't this need to be blown again?
The great eunuch must be punished. This is a sign that His Majesty will trust his virtuous ministers!
As long as Wei Bin, Gu Dayong, Zhang Yong and others can no longer cause harm, let's "reward" them with a decent old age. Now that they have all left their prominent positions and can no longer deal with foreign ministers, that is enough.
Do you want to be relentless and continue to stimulate this emperor who doesn't know how to criticize him?
If there are any more reasons in the future, we can still investigate them. Your Majesty may also want to dig out some more from them.
Yes, what kind of secret treasury, the so-called more than four million taels of silver, everyone knows that it is a lie made up by His Majesty.
Of course His Majesty dug it out of the pockets of Wei Bin and others. It is not clear how much was taken out.
Your Majesty, he really... all the ministers cried to death.
He didn't just attack the civil servants, he also attacked the ministers and military officials as well!
But now that His Majesty has killed Mao Cheng and Yan Guan, he has still killed the interests of his close ministers and honorable ministers and generals.
He obviously wanted to protect Wei Bin and the others' dignity in their old age. Could the civil servants really arrest them all and ransack their homes? Or maybe the money was taken from the secret treasury designated by the emperor as the "sealed warehouse" to the warehouse?
It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I can’t do it.
Today has been exciting enough, and everyone wants to quickly transition down the steps to a slower pace.
Wait, Wei Bin went to the Imperial Palace Prison, Gu Dayong went to the Divine Palace Prison, where is Zhang Yong? Didn't leave your job?
Yang Tinghe stood up and said: "Since the night of the late emperor's grand march, Zhang Yong has been supervising the nine gates of the capital with the palm of the Royal Horse Supervisor. Your Majesty, this is an extraordinary measure in an emergency period. Now it is time to make other arrangements."
Zhu Houcong nodded: "I have ordered Zhang Zuo to be promoted to the position of Supervisor of Ceremonies, Bingbi. After that, the Supervisor of Ceremonies will appoint Bingbi as the eunuch admiral to supervise the nine internal officials to inspect the city. They are not allowed to supervise the factory guards at the same time. As for Zhang Yong, he has been abolished and is indiscriminate. The affairs between the government and the army were serious, so I severely punished him and found out that he had done nothing serious. During the Chenhao Rebellion, he also used various mediators to prevent Wang Shouren from being falsely accused by Zhang Zhong. In the past, there was the contribution of King Anhua and the contribution of overthrowing Liu Jin, and in the later, he was responsible for both. Supervising the capital camp and many military achievements, as well as the Chenhao Rebellion and my entry into the capital to succeed to the throne, Zhang Yongliu used the imperial horse supervisor's palm seal and still received his old post."
Regarding Zhang Yong, the attitude of many courtiers is still complicated.
Although he is one of the Eight Tigers, he may be the only one among the Eight Tigers that no one can deny his achievements and blindly belittle his character.
At least it is not appropriate to make a big move against him now. After all, His Majesty has just ascended the throne, and Zhang Yong is related to major military affairs in Kyoto.
Only then did Zhu Houcong state the main purpose of today: "The layoff of more than 120,000 people is not a trivial matter, and Zhang Yongduo's assistance is needed. In addition, this also involves the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army. My opinion is to train the Beijing camp and improve the warfare." The strength is correct. A large number of these more than 120,000 people are not free of charge. How to deal with and arrange these people? Abolition of abuses cannot be solved at once. We must truly solve the problem of the combat strength of the officers and soldiers in Beijing. I intend to change things. The original 12th Regiment Battalion of the Guanting and the new Lianxuanfeng reset the three major battalions of Shenji, Sanqian, and the Fifth Army. After the reset, the old system was restored. How to deal with this matter together with the abolition of Taobao, all the ministers expressed their opinions. "
Yang Tinghe looked deeply at the emperor.
Putting the two things together, His Majesty's goal couldn't be clearer.
All this today is only for two things: legal rule and military power.
Resetting the three major battalions and improving the combat effectiveness of the Beijing camp is certainly not urgent at present, and there is no need to waste money and effort.
But now, there is money: more than 4 million taels of secret treasury, Qian Ning Jiangbin's tens of millions of family assets, and he can save money after eliminating more than 120,000 taels of money.
General Xunchen was aroused just now and was about to express his loyalty.
The most important thing is: the emperor clearly said that he is the successor of the vassal, and he wants to build a strong Beijing camp. Who among the civil servants who have experienced so much today can stand up and oppose the emperor's training of life-saving things?
Beijing camp always defends its own people!
Mao Cheng has fallen under the banner of loyalty.
The eyes of the generals who had been depressed just now brightened up.
Although the indiscriminate abolition will hurt the short-term interests of the generals, what kind of signal is the reset of the three major battalions?
Your majesty is wise!
He doesn't use our military ministers as toilet facilities and throw them away after use.
His Majesty has us in his heart!
Is the restoration of the old system a return to the orthodox years of Hongwu, Yongle, Hongxi, and Xuande?
After all, there are no three major camps after Jingtai!
At that time, at that time... the eyes of the honorable ministers and generals were almost wet as they thought about the secret memories of their fathers.
Then soon, their red eyes turned red and warm again as they looked at the extremely vigilant civil servants.
Is it time to charge?
