Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 392 Good Habits
The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment is seriously ill, and the Minister of the Ministry of Rites is now in the prison, which seems to have affected many things in the court.But in Zhu Yunying's eyes, such things are nothing and will not affect the normal operation of the court.

Even in Lao Zhu's opinion, this is not a problem at all. He used to be short of two or three ministers among the six ministers, and one of them was missing for several years.But even this will not affect the operation of the court. You must know that the prime minister was abolished at that time, and the six ministers were directly responsible to the emperor.

A large part of the reason why Lao Zhu came here was because he wanted to comfort Xiao Zhu.Old Zhu was used to such things, but worried that Xiao Zhu would encounter such things in his second year in power, and he was a little panicked.

At the end of the review of the memorial, Zhu Yunying accompanied Lao Zhu for a walk in the palace.In addition to chatting about the court affairs, the two of them also had to discuss some clan affairs.

For example, Zhu Yunying has many uncles and aunts, and some of them have just reached the age of marriage.Including those princes and sons, the marriages of these people obviously cannot be made by themselves.Even if Zhu Yunying didn't make the decision directly, at least he needed to think about it.

Even if there are some men over there who are interested in love and concubines, or some things have been played, Zhu Yunying needs to weigh it.

"Ru Xun has recommended some candidates for his grandson's books today, and we are also considering them carefully." Sending away the 11-year-old uncle 24, Zhu Yunying said to Lao Zhu, "Huang Guan is capable and talented, and we think he is too Too young to be in court."

Lao Zhu thought about it carefully, and asked with some uncertainty, "That person is not yet forty?"

Zhu Yunying nodded with a smile, and said to Old Zhu, "He is the No. 28 scholar in the 37, and he is only [-] now. We think that it will be better to return to the court center after a few more years of experience."

Old Zhu nodded slightly, and said to Zhu Yunying, "That's the reason. He is too young now. If he is now a minister, he may not be able to serve for two or thirty years. can be replaced."

This is a conservative statement. According to Lao Zhu's meaning, some ministers have been in office for a few years, and they should be eliminated as soon as possible.It is obviously impossible to hold power in those high positions for a long time, and Lao Zhu will not let those people become more powerful.

Zhu Yunying also continued, "Actually, my grandson is also thinking about letting him go down to practice."

Hearing what Zhu Yunying said, Lao Zhu couldn't help frowning, "Tell me, tell me what you think?"

Although Lao Zhu didn't remember Huang Guan's actual age, he still knew Huang Guan's talent and ability.In Lao Zhu's eyes, this Huang Guan still needs to be cultivated, and this person is indeed worth cultivating.

"Grandfather, we have considered it carefully before. Listening to people talking about ancient times and reading historical books can be regarded as some knowledge." Zhu Yunying opened his mouth and said to Lao Zhu, "If you want to talk about party disputes, it was the most intense in the Song Dynasty."

Of course, Lao Zhu was aware of the party struggle, and Lao Zhu was even more aware of how cruel the party struggle between the Song and Song Dynasties was.

The party struggle in the Northern Song Dynasty was really fierce since Song Zhezong. It was a dispute between the old party and the new policy.If we really talk about it, it is probably when Song Zhenzong started, and Kou Zhun and Wang Qinruo did not have less fights.In the later Song Shenzong period, the reformists represented by Wang Anshi and the conservatives represented by Sima Guang pushed the party struggle to a peak.

Clique disputes have always been one of the chief culprits of exacerbating internal friction in the imperial court. The emperors tried their best to prevent officials from having close contacts in private, forming private parties, and ignoring national interests.

If it is just a matter of political ideology to start a party struggle, it is barely acceptable.However, some party disputes actually start with the region, origin, etc., which seems a little unacceptable.

Zhu Yunying continued, "Grandfather, our Great Ming Dynasty is different from the Song Dynasty. Those civil servants should not think about being so comfortable at this stage, and they are unlikely to sit back and relax. As long as our Wu Xun maintains vitality, it will be difficult for civil servants to become big."

Old Zhu was also quite proud and proud, and said to Zhu Yunying, "They can't make trouble if we are in power. Those people don't have to count on you if you are in power. Even if we are gone, there will probably be dozens of people Years, hundreds of years, civil servants can really get tough, that's because our emperor and Wu Xun can't live up to their expectations."

That's the reason. As long as the Wuxun Group still has some promise, civil servants shouldn't expect to 'cover the sky with one hand'.

Zhu Yunying continued at this time, "We don't care about whether the civil servants are getting bigger or not. What we think about now is that the civil servants will help us govern the world a lot."

Old Zhu listened carefully, while Zhu Yunying continued, "Let's think about it, these civil servants can't stay in Yingtian Mansion for a long time. Those officials are good at dancing and writing, and they can write beautiful articles well. It's just that Writing good articles and being a good official are two different things.”

Hearing what Zhu Yunying said, Old Zhu naturally agreed, and he was deeply touched by this matter.

Nowadays, many people who enter the official career pass the imperial examination, which is somewhat different from Lao Zhu's "don't ask the source" when he was fighting the world.

These people are very good at making fuss, but many of these people have been studying since childhood. They study hard and don't care about world affairs. Naturally, they don't understand the suffering of the people, or they don't have much ability.

"That's what we are afraid of now. If our court is full of people who only know how to read and don't understand world affairs, it will be difficult." Zhu Yunying said to Lao Zhu, "So let's think about it, let's not talk about the six books. Now, even those servants must be officials close to the people."

The so-called close-to-the-people officials refer to officials who directly rule the people, that is, officials at the lowest level in the locality.Although these positions and grades are cowardly and complicated, all matters such as appeasing the people, urging subjects, hearing lawsuits, and persuading farmers, no matter how big or small, are within the scope of responsibility of "close to the people".

Lao Zhu's eyes lit up, and he said quite approvingly, "This idea is good, we have to do it like this! When we fight the world, we don't support idlers, and some famous ones really can't do anything. We also opened a lot of subjects. Those who can win Jinshi are indeed capable. But let’s just say, there are some people who are like that, and they can’t even be magistrates!”

"That's the reason!" Zhu Yunying said with emotion, "Grandfather, some top three Jinshi, that is, go to be a county magistrate. But our future servants and ministers should also go to the state capital to practice."

Zhu Yunying is planning to reform the promotion channels for civil servants. He is going to start to formulate the promotion system and promotion methods for civil servants in the Ming Dynasty.

Nowadays, there is a trend that the top three Jinshi go to other places.Some of the first-class or second-class talents, most of them stayed in the Imperial Academy, or started to work in the center, basically they have been working in the center of the court, steadily and slowly improving.

Zhu Yunying continued, "My grandson thinks that most of these people in the court are taking care of the affairs of the world. If they don't understand the place, they can only do something wrong. At that time, the important officials will be mediocre officials, and the world will How can it be managed well?"

Lao Zhu was very happy, and said proudly, "We knew that our Yinger had a vision! This central official should really know how to govern the country, so that he can help the people and the country!"

Some people must be down-to-earth, and those people must be allowed to go around the place, not just talk, or formulate policies that seem idealistic and lack practical room for operation.

As for whether these policies would cause some civil officials to complain, Zhu Yunying naturally didn't care so much.

In fact, there is no need to worry too much, there are too many scholars who want to gain a foothold in the court.Or in order to realize their ambitions, it is normal to encounter some setbacks and setbacks, that is, some experience, which will also help them grow.

Both Lao Zhu and Xiao Zhu feel at ease when they are torturing civil servants.It is probably because the civil servants have been tossed a lot in the years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, so naturally they don't care to toss these people more now.

The most important thing is to hope to have some real talents of pillars. Once these people are trained, they will be the best for the country of Ming Dynasty, and this is also the most important thing.

Lao Zhu was in a good mood, mainly because he always knew that his grandson was excellent and would definitely become an excellent emperor.But now looking at some of his grandson's policies and visions, Lao Zhu believes that Daming's country will definitely become more stable, and the prosperity of Daming is getting closer and closer.

As for Zhu Yunying being happier at this time, it is naturally because the resistance to implementing some policies is relatively small, he can let go and realize his ideals and ambitions, which of course deserves a little joy.

Since this is the case, when Fu realized it, Lao Zhu took Xiao Zhu back to Qianqing Palace to drink, and he also wanted to relax.

Little Zhu came here in a hurry, and ran to Qianqing Palace and shouted, "Grandfather, father, you don't call us when you eat?!"

Seeing the great-grandson who was getting angry, Lao Zhu quickly tried to please him, "We thought you should have dinner with your queen mother today, and your cousin and cousin are also in the palace, so we didn't call you over. Our There are many rules, you will not have fun coming here."

"Cousin and the others left the palace before dinner, and the palace is about to close." Little Zhu stretched out his little hand and said to Lao Zhu, "We didn't play today, we read a lot of books, and in the afternoon we will talk to my cousin." Brother is coming to play soldiers!"

Shuangquan and Wang Chengen hurriedly waited for the crown prince to wash his hands, arranged the dishes and chopsticks for the crown prince, and the crown prince was also going to eat in the Qianqing Palace.

Old Zhu doesn't pay much attention, but his children and grandchildren do, and he is very happy.Old Zhu is even more pleased with the fact that little Zhu loves to be clean.I probably also think that this is Xiao Zhu's good teaching. Xiao Zhu can be said to be the cleanest in the palace.

Good living habits are naturally needed, and in addition to these living habits, the court also needs to have some seemingly healthy and reasonable rules and policies.

Zhu Yunying can't just think about loving cleanliness and washing hands. He is the emperor, and what he wants to rule is the world and the court!
