In the half year since Xu Youzhen left the capital, the court meeting had never been as lively as it is today.
These officials even wanted to continue the old tradition and took Xu Youzhen and beat her up.
But now that the emperor has grown up, you must pay attention to it.
The most important thing is that the officials following Xu Youzhen are all young people in their thirties and forties.
These people started fights and were ruthless. They all wanted to climb up and really wanted to take action. These young people who were eager to show off in front of their immediate superiors must not be too light or too serious when they started.
It must be very painful if they hit you with their fists...
Officials with this concern would of course not dare to take action first.
Endless quarrels began.
If you scold me, I will scold your mother. If you scold my mother, I will scold your grandma...
So lively.
But the emperor probably didn't want it either, because his words could risk imprisonment.
Prestige is not established like this.
The stability of the government is also very important.
Moreover, Zhu Jianshen's goal has been successfully achieved with Xu Youzhen's cooperation.
At that moment, Zhu Jianshen glanced at Zhang Bao, the disciplinary committee member of Fengtian Palace.
Zhang Bao immediately gave instructions and began to maintain order. After the ministers stopped arguing, Zhu Jianshen slowly said: "What Xu Du Yushi said is right, but the second half of the sentence is a bit decisive. I am just saddened by the moral corruption of our saint, and everything I say is only directed at him alone. My dear friends, please don’t quarrel anymore."
As soon as the emperor finished speaking, officials from both sides breathed a sigh of relief.
As an official, you only get three or four taels of silver a month, so what kind of life do you have to work for?
Turning big things into small things and turning small things into nothing is the main theme and the safest thing.
Wait until the emperor covers up the matter.
Li Xian's hanging heart was finally relieved.
Then the Shang chariot standing behind Li Xian came out to play the duel.
"Your Majesty, Duke Yansheng's palace has the duty of worshiping saints. The position of Duke Yansheng should be determined as soon as possible to show the emperor's kindness and respect for saints."
After Shang Ren was reactivated, his mentality changed slightly and he was no longer as rigid as before.
Even if he thinks outside the box, he can't get along with Xu Youzhen. He can only follow Li Xian, who has similar political views, and suppress Xu Youzhen, who is rising strongly.
At this time, it was not convenient for Li Xian to tell, so Shang Ren fought for Li Xian.
Zhu Jianshen nodded after listening to Shang Ren's words, then looked at Xu Youzhen, and found that Xu Youzhen had returned to his previous listless appearance, and smiled bitterly.
Then he said: "Not long after Kong Hongxu passed away, his two-year-old son Kong Wenshao inherited the title of Duke Yansheng, which goes against the reputation of the Kong family."
"Common people also know that when an ancestor dies, the mourning period is three years, and no happy events are held. This is what a saint should do. However, what Shang Aiqing said is right. The position of Duke Yan is more important, and the hearts of scholars in the world will be settled. But we can't take advantage of love. Let's let Kong Wenshao observe mourning for his father for one year. The court has issued an order."
After Zhu Jianshen finished speaking, he glanced at Li Xian again: "Li Aiqing, it can be done in one year."
"What your Majesty said makes sense, and I think it is feasible." Li Xian hurriedly came out of the queue to reply.
The imperial court could have taken advantage of the situation and allowed Kong Wenshao to inherit the throne of Yanshenggong one month after Kong Hongxu's death, but Zhu Jianshen forcefully wanted to leave him for a year.
The idea is not to suppress the chief minister of his cabinet, but to suppress the Yanshenggong Mansion. Once this precedent is set, if Yanshenggong dies in the future, the subsequent emperors can act according to the rules, and they can even recover from one year to the next. In three years, let them slowly come down from the clouds.
Using partial methods to reduce their influence on the Ming Dynasty and the nation was only aimed at the Confucian family, not the traditional Confucian culture.
Loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom, and trust are the core ideas of Confucianism, and their influence on the nation is too huge and long-lasting. When the social form has not changed, and when the technology and industry have not undergone earth-shaking changes, you want to change this thing that is engraved in your bones. , is impossible.
In any case, it is people who should change culture, rather than letting culture imprison people.
Confucianism needs to be changed. It is not all dregs. In this period, it is much more advanced than the Western god culture and the countless gods’ culture.
Dong Zhongshu was castrated before, and in the future there will be great thinkers to make up for it...
After the morning session.
Zhu Jianshen returned to Qianqing Palace and summoned Cao Jixiang, who had been waiting in the palace.
Originally, Zhu Jianshen wanted Xu Youzhen to be present together.
But looking at his state, Zhu Jianshen didn't want to embarrass him anymore.
But when Zhu Jianshen saw Cao Jixiang, who was also looking tired, he kept smiling bitterly in his heart. These two guys must have been playing tricks together last night.
But how could a eunuch and a lecher get together?
Although Cao Jixiang tried hard to restrain himself and keep his mind clear, the things on his face could not be covered up.
After chatting for a few words, Zhu Jianshen asked Cao Jixiang to go down and rest.
In fact, Zhu Jianshen had a very clear understanding of Cao Jixiang's progress.
Cao Jixiang will write a letter to Zhu Jianshen every half month to sort out the situation of the fleet.
Cao Jixiang's large fleet has already been initially sorting out its outline.
Originally, the ships on the first voyage were not planned to be used this time, but after a statistical analysis, it was found that if the previous ships were not used, the plan for the large fleet might not be completed by the 20th year of Chenghua.
Immediately, maintenance of these ships began. M.biQuge.biZ
Other sea-going ships are also under construction.
The recruitment of manpower is faster.
The last time the fishermen went to sea, they all became extremely rich when they returned to their hometown. Within three years of going out, they each earned hundreds of taels of silver. When they returned to their hometown, they added family and property, and some of them even hid all the money in their hands. Holding golden beans.
Because of the advertisement in front of them, young fishermen along the coast were deeply tempted and responded to Cao Jixiang's second call. In less than half a year, the sailors were almost ready.
It is expected that the voyage will begin in the 19th year of Chenghua.
However, Zhu Jianshen knew that Chenghua was almost impossible twenty years ago.
After Cao Jixiang left the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Jianshen also started busy work.
His reputation for diligence had long spread among officials.
Zhu Jianshen could read almost all the memorials. Sometimes, when he couldn't bear it anymore, he would close his eyes and rest for a while. But during this time, he still had to listen to the eunuch reading the memorials.
After Yu Qian left and Zhu Jianshen changed his rules, he has been so tired. Sometimes he even realized that his energy was overdrawn and his mental strength was not as good as before.
In this state, Zhu Jianshen felt a little regret deep in his heart, and he was more able to understand the good intentions of the ancestors of the old Zhu family.
In addition to the fact that Emperor Taizong Gao had sole power and had to look over everything, no matter how big or small, even the equally heroic Taizongwen Emperor Zhu Di directly handed over the government affairs to the prince and the cabinet, and then the position of the cabinet became more and more important. He is high and has more and more powers.
Zhu Jianshen regained the power of the cabinet and also wanted to tell the officials that power was given by the emperor. If it can be given to you, it can also be taken back at will.
In fact, Li Xian was also very anxious. On the one hand, he was worried about the emperor's health, and on the other hand, he was also worried about his historical status.
There are four ministers in the cabinet, and there are more than 30 officials below. These people are having a hard time handling the government affairs. The emperor is in charge of it alone and has changed the order. How can they cope with it.
As for the transformation of the chief minister of the cabinet into the titular prime minister, the historical burden lies on Li Xian, because Yu Qian did it, and San Yang before him also did it, but if it ends with him, it will become a fictitious and papery thing. As the chief minister of the cabinet, he can only have a mediocre reputation in history. The only outstanding point in his life was that he ran back to the capital during the rebellion in Tumubao...
But the emperor insisted on questioning the political power, and there was nothing he could do.
This is equivalent to losing both sides.
Li Xian lost most of his power and was anxious, while Zhu Jianshen also lost most of his time for entertainment and was restless.
After the wedding, Zhu Jianshen had five children in the first two years, but this year is about to end, and none of the concubines in the harem have reported good news. This proves that since Yu Qian left, the young emperor has spent his life What has it been like...
He was originally an emperor, but he lived a carefree and unrestrained life, but he became a 996 worker...
Of course, even if Zhu Jianshen regretted it, he could not change his mind in a short period of time. He would at least insist on it for a year or two before handing over the right to command the memorial.
Only in this way can a good power environment be established.
