Chapter 134 Shen Jiuzhang ordered academic affairs to revitalize talents
Zhu Yijun finished reading the memorial from Nanya. Luo Bingliang described the debate at the Chongzheng Academy meeting in great detail, vividly portraying the appearance of the corrupt Confucians. Luo Bingliang had no opinions of his own, he just reported the facts as they were.
Wind public opinion is really important, because wind public opinion can really change some values and world views. It is not that Gu Xiancheng’s knowledge is not as good as Jiao Hong’s, but that the education he has received since he was a child is like this. The common people are careless. The life of the powerful and wealthy Jin gentry is life.
This is the collapse of rituals and music that Master has always mentioned, or the erosion of social atmosphere.
A rotten scholar is wallowing in a cesspit, yet he insists on dragging people into the cesspit with him.
Or in Xunzi’s words, he is a cheap Confucian.
As a Confucian saint who was expelled from the Confucian school, Xunzi liked to call Confucian students who were stubborn and inflexible and copied things mechanically as cheap Confucians.
Lu Guangzu was resurrected, which was a slap in the face of the little emperor. Sun Piyang made mistakes in his examination, and the court decided to let him go to the capital to serve. This meant that the position was vacated, and Zhang Juzheng recommended him. Lu Guangzu.
Zhang Juzheng followed the little emperor and made a fool of himself. Once the official of the Ministry of Science and Technology was afraid, he would immediately double up.
Duo Qing Liang Menglong, Ke Daoyan Guan comforted himself by saying that it was Jin Ge Wushu, Duo Qing Zhao Mengyou, Ke Dao Yan Guan could say that he was afraid that Zhao Mengyou’s imperial staff would really beat people to death, so Duo Qing Lu Guangzu, this Did the Bangke Dao Yanguan give a round of remonstrance?
Zhu Yijun prepared the ammunition and waited for the Kedao Yanguan to deliver it to his door! Even things that Confucius and Mencius did not abide by in their time must be abided by in the Wanli era. Such stubborn and stubborn people will naturally have to correct this trend of public opinion.
The little emperor looked around and around the trimaran hydrofoil sailboat that was brought to the imperial city, and said with some confusion: "How did such a big boat get into the palace? It? Can it pass through the city gate? "
The longest point of the hydrofoil sailboat in front of us is 2 feet, 8 feet, 3 inches (8.91 meters), and the widest is 1 feet, 9 feet, 4 inches (6.1 meters). This length-to-width ratio The reason is that the two horizontal balance wings are relatively long, and the mast is about the same length as a sailboat. It is made of all steel and brushed with a dense layer of tung oil on both sides to reflect the sunlight.
"The masts can be dismantled and sent in separately." Chen Lin explained the little emperor's doubts. It would not work if the whole body had to be carried in, but it would not work if the masts were removed and the city gate could be entered. Can also be hoisted.
As long as you want the emperor to see it, and the emperor wants to see it, there are always more solutions than problems.
What I’m afraid of is that I don’t want the emperor to see it, and if the emperor himself doesn’t want to see it, then it’s bad.
Zhu Yijun nodded repeatedly, looked at this, looked at that, and said with great satisfaction: "Okay, okay! Very good!"
Chen Lin took out a copy of Songjiang Shipyard Zhi, handed to Zhang Hong, which contained detailed data on various types of hydrofoil sailboats, with different shapes, including a short horizontal wing single-person sampan, a single-mast two-sail catamaran, and a two-mast and two-sail fast sailing ship. etc.
Record data in detail, specifically requested by the little emperor, for every ship that goes to sea from Songjiang Prefecture, including the length, width, aspect ratio, mast height, draft, waterline, personnel configuration, cargo, and materials used The number, cost, sail surface, watertight cabin design, etc. must be recorded with detailed data to facilitate management.
For this detailed recording method, we still have to refer to the "Wanli Accounting Records" compiled by Wang Guoguang, which records the national tax data of the Ming Dynasty in detail.
Wang Guoguang has always advocated degree bypassing, that is, using specific numbers to measure the infinite things in the world, so that we can draw parallels and make the Ming Dynasty better.
In the early years of Wanli, with the goal of saving the increasingly decadent power of the Ming Dynasty and the lofty ambition of reviving the Ming Dynasty, the ministers united around Zhang Juzheng and used their own methods to solve various problems.
In the administration of officials, there are examinations and laws, in the national taxation, there is a degree bypass, in the military administration, there is a recruitment system and training of soldiers, in the construction of the country, there is a system to eliminate the waste and retain the elite and improve firearms, and the public opinion has risking one's life to criticize the emperor's faults, etc.
What Zhu Yijun has to do is to protect these ministers who are doing their jobs, protect their political heritage, select more loyal and upright officials, and unswervingly lead the Ming Dynasty to revive.
"Yu Shuai requested the establishment of a Maritime Inspection Department to specialize in coastal defense inspections and summons." Chen Lin saw that the little emperor was happy and immediately bowed his head and said.
The Inspection Department of the Ming Dynasty was established in key areas such as Guanjin and Tianjin. The duties of the Inspection Department were to inspect people who had no way to escape, to arrest spies, to intercept escaped soldiers and prisoners, to combat smuggling, and to maintain normal conditions. Business travel, etc.
The Inspection Department is affiliated to the Ministry of War. The Inspection Department has the rank of ninth rank, mostly held by military officials or generals. Each department maintains a number of archers. These archers do not receive royal salary. They They only receive rewards, which are divided into levels such as 200, 100, 30, etc. The local prefectures and counties will increase or decrease rewards and punishments based on whether they have made mistakes.
The establishment of the inspection department depends entirely on the local security situation. If the security situation deteriorates, it will be established. For example, in June of the 26th year of Jiajing, Sichuan added Zhuqingshan, Shaziguan, Jinzishan, and Tongluo Five inspection divisions including Guan and Yangquan Mountain specialize in detecting theft.
The archers of the Inspection Department are actually recruiting local 'heroic rangers' after the inspection takes office. They do not pay money but only give bonuses. They are an important supplement to the court's use of violence.
The first large-scale abolition of the inspection department was in the thirteenth year of Hongwu. When the world was stable, the inspection department that was previously responsible for public security was abolished. 354 inspection departments were abolished. The second large-scale abolition was During the Hongzhi period, due to Xiaozong's benevolent government and the prosperity of the country and the people, the Inspection and Inspection Department was gradually abolished, and then during the Jiajing period, a large number of them were restored.
Zhu Yijun wants to carry out tax collection on thousands of households, hundreds of households, and Tiqi, and recruit heroes and knights to work. This is an ancestral law since the Hongwu period!
“How much does it cost?” Zhu Yijun asked about the specific establishment.
"Yu Shuai's memorial." Chen Lin took out the memorial and handed it to Zhang Hong. He looked at the little emperor with strong expectation, hoping that this memorial would be approved.
Yu Dayou wanted several official positions of the ninth grade, and selected ten Langli Baitiao to serve as coastal defense patrols. Each patrol would be assigned a hydrofoil sailboat to notify the various prefectures and counties near the sea of emergency news. Detect the movements of pirates, deliver news, inspect smuggling, etc.
After reading the memorial, Zhu Yijun said in surprise: "You don't need money?"
Yu Dayou knew that the imperial court was tight on expenses and the national funds were empty, but he did not cause trouble to the imperial court. Inspection Department Each department is responsible for its own profits and losses, and mainly draws points for inspecting smuggling. If there are merchant ships but not ships, they will be led into the sea. For anti-smuggling, 6 points will be drawn, and the goods will be escorted to the Municipal Shipping Department for confiscated goods.
But again, the free one is the most expensive.
This kind of inspection department all depends on the inspector himself. If the owner of the anti-smuggling ship bribes and releases the ship without permission, wouldn't it mean that each inspection department has become a bank check? With financial independence, within a few years, he turned into a pirate and roamed the world.
Antonio came all the way from the West and bribed the colonial governor and tax officials along the way. Zhu Yijun knew this very well.
If this free method is used, there will probably be a lot more pirates on the long coastline of the Ming Dynasty.
What Yu Dayou means is to deal with it in the past two years first, and then make plans and disposals in a few years when the government's finances are no longer so tight.
Zhu Yijun handed the memorial to Zhang Hong and said: "Anti-smuggling is a necessary urgent task for the inspection department, and it is also a matter of course to prevent Japanese pirates. It is not feasible for the inspection department to recruit so-called heroes and knights. The imperial court is raising guest soldiers. After countering the rebellion, the guest soldiers have no place to relocate. How about placing them in the inspection department? It is better to smuggle and confiscate the goods and record merit and rewards according to the value of the anti-smuggling goods."
There are two points in the method mentioned by Zhu Yijun. Yu Shuai is different.
One: Instead of recruiting wanderers, recruit soldiers.
Anti-smuggling is a very professional matter, and wandering people and heroes may not be qualified for it, but the Ming Dynasty's guest soldiers are different. Most of the southern guest soldiers are professional soldiers, and they have been trained for a long time , facing the rampant smuggling of maritime trade, we can effectively perform the anti-smuggling duties. Peace with Japan is a war, anti-smuggling is also a war, and it is a bonded war.
The guest soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were also accustomed to giving money, fighting Japanese bandits, and being rewarded by the court. This can be regarded as the benevolence and righteousness of the court in settling veterans. The guest soldiers were members of the court, and the court still paid them. This is a system. There is an essential difference between forming an anti-smuggling brigade and recruiting heroes to serve as heroes.
Two: Do not allow points to be given as rewards. This is to prevent the inspection department from having financial independence, and will not turn the inspection department into a bandit who collects passing money.
"Your Majesty is wise, of course Yu Shuai hopes to use guest soldiers, but he is worried that the imperial court will suffer a huge financial loss." Chen Lin heard the little emperor's idea and quite agreed with it. Of course Yu Dayou wanted to do this, formal anti-smuggling A large team is no better than a litter of rats?
The problem is money. The imperial court is already very poor. Yu Dayou is afraid of asking the imperial court to pay for it, and it is difficult to accomplish this. The reason why he wants to carry this hydrofoil sailboat to the palace is not to let the imperial court pay. Look, they in Songjiang Town have a reverent heart. They have done very well in the things the emperor told them. They have sought the protection of some holy relatives so that they can display their ambitions?
It was so difficult for the warriors of the Ming Dynasty to do something.
"There is still a little money for this. There are ten inspections of the ninth grade in total. Each inspection department has one hundred guest soldiers. It is only 20,000 taels of silver a year. Maybe the confiscation of one ship is enough." Zhu Yijun smiled. Said: "Then let the Ministry of War discuss it in the next chapter, and bring it to the court for discussion."
"For meritorious service in construction, Songjiang Shipyard will reward everyone with one...two taels of silver."
Chen Lin knelt on the ground and said sincerely: "Thank you, Your Majesty for your kindness."
This was an agreement. Chen Lin breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, the trouble was not in vain. The emperor saw them. Although the reward was not much, two taels of silver was already extremely generous.
Zhu Yijun also wants to have one person and ten taels, but the key is that the internal funds are very poor, so the reward cannot be continued, right?
Tan Lun looked at the hydrofoil sailboat in front of him in fascination. When Japan was in peace, it was possible to have such a thing, so why did it take so much effort?
The most important thing in pacifying the Japanese is to find the Japanese nest. If they cannot find the Japanese nest, the Japanese pirates can come ashore from any point on the long coastline of the Ming Dynasty to harass. There is no offense but defense, which means being passively beaten and exhausted at the same time. , and Quan Hao secretly conveyed the news to the Japanese pirates. The matter of pacifying the Japanese pirates was definitely not like some scholars' blithe words, just beating a group of bandits.
Looking for a nest in the vast sea is like looking for a needle in a haystack. With this fast hydrofoil sailboat, the speed of scout inspection can be greatly increased. Sufficient intelligence can provide more military information. of redundancy.
Tan Lun’s face is full of smiles, the Ming Dynasty is prosperous and everything is prosperous.
"Qi Shuai, when we wanted this sacred object, why did we worry about Japanese pirates disturbing our Ming Dynasty waters?" Tan Lun looked at the hydrofoil sailboat with emotion.
Qi Jiguang made a careful calculation and said: "If this thing had existed back then, the Japanese would have been defeated long ago. How could the Japanese pirates be rampant?"
This thing is not expensive. It starts from Shandong to North Korea and then along the road. It only takes a few days to invade the Japanese country, and by supporting war with war, most of the Japanese troubles can probably be quelled.
"This thing only costs forty taels of silver? A three-masted plywood ship with four hundred materials, but only two thousand taels of silver?" Wang Guoguang looked at the majestic ship in front of him in "Songjiang Shipyard Chronicles" The ship, including labor costs, only cost 40 taels of silver, which was much cheaper than he thought. You must know that Hong Mao Fan's three-masted plywood ship, a cargo ship with 400 materials, was priced at 30,000 silver coins. This thing It only costs forty taels.
And a five-masted plywood giant ship improved by Fengzhou, a large ship with thousands of materials, only costs 30,000 taels of silver each, which is the price of a gunpowder cannon.
Wang Guoguang said that it was cheap. The Chief Situ of the Ministry of Revenue, Wang Guoguang, had originally planned to bankrupt his family. Under the policy of opening up the sea, it was inevitable to build another navy. But today I saw the shipyard’s journal. After calculation, it’s really It's not expensive anymore.
Building ten of them only cost 300,000 taels of silver, which was a drop in the bucket compared to the losses caused by the Japanese invasion in the southeast.
The most valuable thing in a navy or an army is its people.
Chen Lin also said with emotion: "This thing, I didn't expect it to be so expensive."
Before making it, Chen Lin thought it was very expensive, but after starting to make it, she realized that It's the red-haired banana that's more expensive.
Zhu Yijun asked about the Jiangsu Ge family. When Ge Cheng killed the tax collector, his face was full of anger when he talked about this Zhu Yijun.
Chen Lin was in Nanya. He really knew the cause and effect of this incident. He hesitated before saying: "The Jiangsu Ge family's house was confiscated because the Ge family was involved in Japanese affairs, not because the servant Ge Cheng committed murder."
< br>Ge Cheng is responsible for murder, and the crime of instigation is also fixed. At most, the head of the Ge family will be beheaded in public. This does not amount to confiscation of the house. Moreover, it is difficult to convict for this crime of instigation. Because it was difficult to collect evidence, Ge became a weaver. He could not see the head of the Ge family. They were all Ge's 'family members' who conveyed orders. Therefore, it is most difficult to trace the source of this kind of case.
But the crime of having Ge's house confiscated was for interfering with the Japanese. This was the fundamental reason why Luo Bingliang immediately went to confiscate his house.
Because Ge Cheng swore that he saw Japanese people buying silk, cotton and other items produced by Ge. The Japanese are very easy to identify. Their hairstyle is clean shaven with a small patch left in the middle, so they can be recognized wherever they go.
Ge Cheng swore that he had seen the Japanese, and there were other people who testified. After a little visit and questioning, he was found guilty of treason with the Japanese.
This is also the reason why Yu Dayou hopes to establish an inspection department to prevent smuggling and prevent Japanese pirates.
Zhu Yijun frowned and asked: "If it's just doing business, Luo Bingliang wouldn't ransack the house. Carrying grudges is abusing his power and taking advantage of the situation to favor him."
Tax inspection. After the house was established, Tiqi was responsible for supervising taxes. It was not as simple as he thought. Luo Bingliang would not be completely unruly in his work, otherwise the wind and public opinion would eat up Luo Bingliang.
Communicating with Japanese pirates in the Ming Dynasty is a serious crime, but that does not mean that as long as you are involved with Japanese pirates, no matter what, you are considered to be collaborating with Japanese pirates.
The Muromachi shogunate was still the king of the Japanese country enthroned by the Ming Dynasty. During the Jiajing period, the Japanese people were competing for tribute and they issued an order to stop the Japanese paying tribute. Before that, the Japanese country paid tribute once every ten years. If they were involved, then forget it, then the Ming Dynasty court was the biggest culprit.
The Ming Dynasty’s express order in Yuegang was to prohibit merchant ships from going to Japan for trade. However, in fact, a large amount of Japanese silver flows into Yuegang every year. The silver of Japan is something that the Ming Dynasty urgently needs. It is only for trading, and generally not for sale. Disposal.
Chen Lin thought about it and said: "The imperial court ordered the powerful families to hand over their armored crossbows. The Suzhou Ge family secretly hid them and sold these armored crossbows to the Japanese."
>"Damn it." Zhu Yijun heard this and sneered. It was true, otherwise Tiqi wouldn't be so aggressive and wanted to ransack his house.
This is not surprising. Zhao Wan, the deputy commander-in-chief of Liaodong, was responsible for supervising the armor armament. The northern captives and slaves of Liaodong all had Ming Dynasty cloth-faced armors with inscriptions of Ming craftsmen on them. It can only be said that they should be damned. It's time to die.
Zhu Yijun and Chen Lin chatted for a long time about Nanya, and then they told the Tiqi to take the boat out and transport it to Tianjin Wei, so that Chen Lin could return to Songjiang Town.
Today's court meeting was postponed for one day because he had to meet with foreign officials. The emperor did not have a royal gate to listen to the government today, he could only talk about the banquet.
"Sir, what do you think of Mencius's statement that those who are good at fighting will serve their punishment?" Zhu Yijun sat up straight and asked.
"At that time, the countries were fighting, rituals and music were ruined, and there was no humaneness and righteousness in the world, so I said this." Zhang Juzheng still had the same attitude as when he was giving lectures.
Discussing words and deeds without any background of the era is not a practice, but a forced attachment. At that time, Mencius was trying to persuade benevolence and righteousness. As for tyranny, at that time, tyranny was everywhere in the world, and Mencius was still used to do it. Talk about it in detail?
Zhang Juzheng thought about it for a while and said: "Your Majesty, I have something to say."
"Sir, please speak." Zhu Yijun nodded and said.
Zhang Juzheng bowed his head and said: "The "Book of Rites" says: The teacher is strict and then the Taoist, and the Taoist and then the people know and respect the learner."
"I am the president of Shilu Emperor Shizongsu, and I found out that Jiajingchu In 1998, Emperor Sejong issued an edict to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, stating that the academic administration was corrupt and rotten. He ordered the Ministry of Civil Affairs to depose the academic officials from all over the country and remove the only ones who survived. "Emperor Sejong's old regulations have been abolished, scholarly customs are declining, and hypocrisy among the people is growing. In the past three years since His Majesty came to power, the Ministry of Civil Affairs has not changed a single academic officer. In fact, it is a long-standing practice. Over time, it will be difficult to revive Gu. Today's scholarly practice has become extremely dilapidated. Isn't it wrong to clean it up according to the stories of the previous dynasties? Policies are used to revitalize talents. "
Reorganizing academic affairs is also part of the Jiajing New Deal. In the early years of Jiajing, Emperor Jiajing also wanted to be a good emperor and a wise king. With the help of Calyx, he also served as the Ming Dynasty master for twenty years. Later, Jiajing neglected politics and concentrated on mystical cultivation, and these new policies were gradually abandoned.
In the three years since Zhu Yijun came to the throne, the Ming Dynasty's official department has not dismissed a single academic official, nor eliminated all students in the world. This academic administration has been corrupted and has been suffering for a long time.
"Sir, what good advice do you have?" the little emperor asked the minister.
"I have a copy of "Registration of Studies and Politics." Zhang Juzheng turned over his sleeves and took out a memorial. Even if there was no matter about Chongzheng Academy, Zhang Juzheng would still write a memorial about this study. Regarding politics, especially the so-called conscience and righteousness, even if it is a little bit of Confucius and Mencius, it is better than conscience. If the righteousness is to integrate knowledge and action, Zhang Juzheng agrees with it ten thousand times, but the key point is that there is only knowledge and no action. .
Zhu Yijun read the memorial carefully. This memorial is really very long.
Zhang Juzheng first elaborated on the significance of academic administration to the dynasty, which is the foundation for the dynasty to raise scholars; he clearly pointed out the negative consequences of the corruption of academic administration, gained a reputation for a while, resisted the imperial edicts, and did not dare to violate personal interests He severely criticized the current corruption of academic affairs, and in order to make the students more public, he asked for help; he cited the provisions of the Jiajing rectification of academic affairs in the early years, gave accurate examples, and analyzed the pros and cons of them section by section;
Combined with the examination method, eighteen new policies were put forward to rectify the academic affairs including the current inspection, reform and removal of academic officials, school preparation, talent selection, and elimination of students.
Each of these eighteen items represents Zhang Juzheng’s painstaking efforts to rectify academic affairs.
"Sir, you are a great talent, does this memorial still have the name of Yang Dazai?" After reading the memorial, Zhu Yijun could only admire Zhang Juzheng's plan. It was really watertight. Gradually, it is by no means too hasty.
Yang Bo had been gone for half a year. Zhang Juzheng took out this memorial at this time, obviously not to take the credit from Yang Bo, but because the time was not ripe at that time.
Zhang Juzheng bowed his head and said: "I and Yang Dazai have communicated on the rectification of academic affairs many times. I have been convinced by Yang Dazai and have not given up. I have made some achievements, but the government decrees at that time blocked it and it could not be carried out."
Whether Yang Bo is a gentleman or a villain is just like whether Emperor Jiajing is a wise king or a cowardly king, they are opposites and unified existences.
"Sir, do you want to add arithmetic?" Zhu Yijun noticed the blind spots in the eighteen articles and asked in surprise.
Zhang Juzheng nodded and said: "Your Majesty wants the tax house and the tax bureau to check the accounts and taxes, the household department needs to take stock of the accounts and sort out the national tax expenditures, and Nanya, Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi, and Guangxi need to clear their heads. These are all The talents who need arithmetic are barely enough now, but it will be unclear in the future, so they naturally need to be cultivated.”
"The degree bypass is a major plan of the country, so naturally arithmetic must be added to it."
"There is no test in the spring of the fifth year of Wanli, but in the eighth year of Wanli, the arithmetic must be tested."
>Zhu Yijun was very in favor of adding arithmetic, but said with some worry: "Okay, okay, it's good to add another arithmetic. I'm afraid that the minister will be nagging again, saying that the husband is paving the way for his children's imperial examinations and specializing in arithmetic."
"Then let the two children live in Chinese style for five years in Wanli." Zhang Juzheng said sincerely.
Zhu Yijun frowned and said: "The imperial examination selects scholars for the country, but in full view of the public, you cannot manipulate the imperial examination."
"They can do Chinese style if they take the exam well." Zhang Juzheng however He is full of confidence. He knows his children very well and their academic performance is excellent. Last time, Zhang Juzheng specifically confessed not to pass the exam. In order to implement the administrative order, he wronged his two children.
Zhang Juzheng started from the perspective of strength. He did not need to control the imperial examination, and his two children could also learn Chinese.
Zhu Yijun picked up the ink pen, wrote quickly, and then said: "What the teacher has written is deeply rooted in the current malpractice, and the provisions are practical and feasible. All ministries must abide by them. If there are still violations and absenteeism, Otherwise, the affairs of the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Civil Affairs should refer to the actual inspection and deposing, and no favoritism is allowed. If there is any favoritism, it will be dealt with together. "
"The next chapter will be discussed by the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Personnel."
< br>Zhang Juzheng bowed his head and said: "I thank your Majesty for your kindness."
When Lu Guangzu returned to Beijing, there was a lot of curses. Everyone said that Lu Guangzu was a traitor to the Jin gentry. In order to revive his wolfish ambitions, if he had not raised his arms and shouted at the assembly of Chongzheng College, and the crowd was excited, Gemini would not have done this. bird.
It’s okay now. Luo Bingliang’s reputation in Nanya can no longer be described as a stench. It is really abominable to confiscate and wipe out households at every turn, but there is nothing that can be done about it, whether it is the Gu family in Kunshan or the Ge family in Jiangsu. , those are all well-founded, and the cases handled are all solid cases. If they are not slanders, they can only shout a few words about the gentry, and let it go.
In the Longqing period, it was still a crime to be a fish-and-bone gentry. In the Wanli period, due to things such as clearing the father-in-law, clearing out the encroachment, and returning the land, it was no longer a crime to be a fish-and-bone gentry.
If the Jin gentry is not to be exploited, the Jin gentry will be to the imperial court.
Lu Guangzu had just returned to Beijing, and the memorials to impeach him floated into the Wenyuan Pavilion like snowflakes. These impeachment memorials were all posted with blank stamps by Lu Tiaoyang, and Zhu Yijun drew them all. A cross sign, allowing the publicist to create wind and public opinion, but he did not say a word.
Zhu Yijun was waiting, waiting for the Kedao speaker to come and kowtow in front of Chengtian Gate. At that time, he was facing Tianque. Zhu Yijun patiently explained that if there was still more trouble this time, the Tiqi's board would be Not that tasty.
Zhu Yijun can usually explain patiently that Chaotianque is breaking the rules and forcing the palace.
At three o'clock in the morning, Ge Shouli and Hai Rui, the imperial censors on the left and right of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Wang Xijue, the director of the Hanlin Academy, Wang Jiaping, Fan Yingqi, the supervisor of the Imperial Academy, and others gathered in the Jin Guild Hall.
Ge Shouli said calmly: "I am optimistic about the censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Wang Xueshi must be optimistic about the Hanlin Academy. Wang Jiaping and Fan Yingqi are optimistic about the Imperial Academy. Whenever one of them goes to kowtow at Huangjimen , let’s all take the blame and serve.”
Wang Jiaping thought that Ge Shouli called them here to discuss the matter of joining forces to fight against Tianque, but when he heard that he wanted everyone to be careful and not to do anything, he asked doubtfully: "This is a matter of resurrecting love, forgetting relatives and greedy for position, slandering ministers, and committing the wrath of heaven, and everyone will be severely punished."
"That's nonsense. Which person who seizes love and regains his love has been punished by God? What nonsense are you talking about?" Ge Shouli immediately reprimanded: "If you think about it, in the early days of the country, from the cabinet ministers to the court officials, all the love-stealing people, the longest one, was just given. After a six-month holiday to deal with the funeral, which of the Ming Dynasty's relapses was punished by God?"
Fan Yingqi really thought about it carefully, shook his head and said: "That's not true, but it is a matter of ordinary people's ethics? , A gentleman is a gentleman, but he can't do anything about it!"
"You must seek death, right? Go, go!" Ge Shouli stopped talking and waved Fan Yingqi to go to Chaotian Que. , go and kowtow in front of Huangji Gate!
Fan Yingqi hurriedly said: "Gong Ge, tell me why we can't go there for this matter?"
Ge Shouli leaned on the back of his chair, shook his head helplessly and said, "Oh, our Majesty is good at everything. , He looks like a very bright model of benevolence, but his thoughts are too heavy."
Fortunately, Ge Shouli kept his mouth shut and didn't say what was in his heart. He had never seen such a sinister emperor!
"Why didn't Mr. Ge say something?" Fan Ying was confused.
Thank you to "The No. 1 Mountain in Southwest" for the 1,000-point reward, thank you for your support and recognition, please give me a monthly ticket, woohoo! ! ! ! ! ! !
