Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 639 Script
Emperor Yingshi must be ill, otherwise he would not have come to the morning court for two consecutive days. It has always been the emperor who brought the crown prince to the court, which is very abnormal.

Faced with such a situation, many civil and military officials are worried, and feel that such a thing makes them feel a little uncertain.

But it's useless even if you have no idea, the one sitting on the dragon chair is Emperor Hongwu. Even if it seems that he has been out of court for a long time, no one dares to underestimate Emperor Hongwu's wrist.

Some people have more thoughts and feel that they need to be more cautious at this time. Whoever made Emperor Hongwu must be in a bad mood at this time.If the eyebrows are touched, it will be a trivial matter to be dismissed from office and resign, and there is no need to be surprised if the whole family goes to the execution ground neatly.

Lao Zhu, who was sitting on the dragon chair, had a serious expression, looked at Bao Zhao and asked, "I remember that the household department embezzled the clan's income a while ago, how is the case now?"

Everyone became nervous all of a sudden. Thinking about the violence of the Hongwu event, many people felt that Yu Xin was no longer just a bad thing, but that he was doomed to an extremely miserable end.

Bao Zhao knelt down immediately, and replied respectfully, "Qizuo His Majesty the Supreme Emperor, it is true that the offender Yu Xin delayed the imperial family's income, and the ministers have not found out that he was corrupt and perverted the law."

This is interesting, that is to say, Yu Xin did deliberately delay the royal family bank's dividend income.He may have wanted to cause some trouble for the clan, or he may have just forgotten, or other thoughts, this matter can be said to be solid now, and there is no way to shirk it.

In fact, many people also know more inside information, but they dare not reveal it in front of Emperor Hongwu. After all, Yu Xin is too late to regret after being imprisoned.

Old Zhu was very upset, and scolded, "There is nothing wrong with it? Yu Xin delayed the clan's income for no reason. This is injustice for the emperor! Treat the clan harshly and neglect relatives, what kind of stigma do you want the emperor to bear?"

Needless to say, all civil and military officials at this time naturally knelt down in unison, claiming to be guilty, and even many people were complaining about Yu Xin in their hearts, they were simply causing trouble for everyone!

At this time, Xiao Zhu stood up, seemingly very courageous, "Qi Zuo His Majesty the Great-Grandfather Emperor, I thought Yu Xin had done something wrong, so he should be punished naturally. However, the Emperor Father is wise and the officials are diligent, so the situation will not be corrupted. I think that even if Yu Xin has done something, he has made merits, and I hope that His Majesty the great-grandfather will show mercy."

Yu Xin did have meritorious service. Hong Wu became an official in 21 years, and he also helped Zhu Yunying revise the patriarchal salary and salary in the early years.A few years ago, due to the shortage of food and wages for border affairs, Yu Xin formulated the law of attracting investment and opening up China, which is all credit to the letter.

Old Zhu seemed very unhappy, looked at little Zhu and said sternly, "Prince, you should remember that merits are merits and demerits are demerits. If you rely on some merits to corrupt the law and commit crimes, what is the court's rule? If there is a clan, it is also your family!"

This is so stern, many people think that Emperor Hongwu is really angry, and the crown prince may be afraid now, and he is going to apologize.

But Xiao Zhu's performance surprised everyone, and he argued vigorously, "Your Majesty the great-grandfather, I think Yu Xin should be punished, but there is no need for justice! Although there is a delay in the income of the clan, it has already been allocated, and the clan has no complaints. The royal father treated the clan harshly, and the relatives were dissatisfied."

At this time, Zhu Wei was trembling, he felt that he was in a dilemma, but his attitude was extremely important at this time, even if he wanted to hide now, he couldn't avoid it.

He is the Clan Order of the Clan Mansion, so it can be said that he represents the attitude of the clan, so he has a great say, especially when the interests of the clan are involved in the urban area.The opinion of Zhou Wang Zhu Huan basically represented the opinion of the clan.

Following the words of Emperor Hongwu, it would naturally offend the crown prince, and possibly even offend his nephew, the emperor. This was not the situation Zhu Wei wanted to see.

And once he followed Xiao Xiaozhu's words, he would offend his father.Thinking about his own experience over the years, Zhu Xi still has the fear and shadow of Lao Zhu in his bones.

It’s just that Zhu Huan has no chance to be a tortoise. The old Zhu who was sitting on the dragon chair snorted coldly, “King Zhou, what do you think of what Yu Xin has done? Then Yu Xin, first cut the clan’s expenses, and then extended the deductions.” What the clan received, does the clan really have no resentment?"

At this moment, Xiao Zhu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty the great-grandfather, it is the wish of the emperor to reduce the expenses of the clan. Yu Xin is only acting according to the order, and has no intention of embarrassing the clan!"

With a mournful face, Zhu Xi knelt down and gritted his teeth, "Show father, I think the clan has no complaints."

Offend the father, offend the father and then go to plead guilty, at worst, you will be whipped a few times, or you will be driven back to your hometown again to observe the ancestors' foundation.If you offend your nephew, the emperor, or the grandnephew, you will never be able to live in peace for the rest of your life, and even your descendants will be implicated.

Old Zhu seemed very angry, pointing at Zhu Huan and said loudly, "You are the order of the clan, you should protect the relatives of the clan! Now, even you don't protect the clan?"

Little Zhu was the first to speak again, and said, "Your Majesty the great-grandfather, the fifth uncle did not neglect the clan. The fifth uncle only repaid the truth. The fifth uncle is well known in the government and the public, and the clan is obedient! I think that reading in Yu Xin What a credit, it’s better to be dismissed from office!”

Many people's eyes brightened, and Yu Xin seemed to have a chance to 'retire with all his strength'.Although he lost his official position, he survived anyway!

At this time, little Zhu continued, "Yu Xin is from Linhuai in Fengyang Mansion, and he is considered to be half of his great-grandfather. Yu Xin was removed from office and sent back to his hometown to honor his great-grandfather, His Majesty the Emperor, and his father's benevolence!"

Manchu civil and military were excited, they saw a once very familiar figure in Xiaoxiao Zhu's small figure, and the Ming Dynasty was saved again.

In the early years, Emperor Hongwu was extremely ruthless. At that time, Emperor Xiaokang, the former emperor, fought hard for reason. Even in the face of Emperor Hongwu's wrath, some important civil and military officials were preserved.

This is a major event, this is an out-and-out major event. Many civil and military officials saw hope and saw the benevolent crown prince.

It is naturally a good thing for the crown prince to be so benevolent, let alone things like the crown prince's enthronement in the future.That is, when the crown prince grows up and begins to observe politics, he may be able to protect some civil and military affairs.

What's more, Yingshi now that the emperor's dragon body is ill, maybe His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will have the opportunity to ascend the Great Treasure soon.At that time, the Ming Dynasty will finally have a benevolent emperor, and the civil and military officials will have a chance to breathe a sigh of relief.

Old Zhu snorted coldly, and said unhappily, "Yu Xin treats the clan harshly, how can he be lightly forgiven? Dismissed from office and sent back to his hometown, I'm afraid it's just what he wants! Death penalty is inevitable, life penalty is inevitable, Yu Xin sent to Huanghuai official!"

Yan Zhenzhi, who was kneeling at first, suddenly felt that something was wrong, and he always felt that there seemed to be a deep routine in it.

Yan Zhenzhi actually knew a little about why Yu Xin wanted to leave the court.But now, Yan Zhenzhi really has nothing to lose by stealing chickens, and even if he loses his official position, he still wants to control the Yellow River.

Isn't this an obvious thing, if it is sent to the Huanghuai, then naturally it is going to control the Yellow River.The former Hubu Shangshu of the Ming Dynasty knew the data of the world's household registration and taxation, as well as the geographical dangers and difficulties.

Moreover, Yu Xin presided over the opening of the Chinese Law in the early years, and was also very familiar with the collection of food, salaries and supplies.

Now that Yu Xin is going to the Yellow River, he is responsible for Yan Zhenzhi's logistics.It seems that on the embankment of the Yellow River, the Ming Dynasty may not only die a minister of the Ministry of Industry, but Yu Xin, the former minister of the Ministry of household affairs, may also fall on the embankment of the Yellow River.

This is also in line with the characters of Emperor Hongwu and Emperor Yingshi. Those who they think are valuable must be thoroughly squeezed out.It is basically impossible to leave the court easily.

Yan Zhenzhi is too familiar with this routine.Emperor Hongwu has always been like this. In fact, Emperor Yingshi also inherited this good habit.

Emperor Hongwu's lingering anger was still there, and Yu Xin's actions had indeed been caught. At this time, everyone naturally did not dare to continue to help Yu Xin intercede.

Many people are also very grateful now. For example, Xia Yuanji, he felt that if the crown prince had not withstood the pressure, Yu Xin must have been in danger. After all, Emperor Hongwu was really angry.

Emperor Hongwu seemed very angry, but he also gave the crown prince some face.He didn't fully accept the crown prince's suggestions, but he didn't reject all of them. This could be regarded as giving some face to the crown prince who had just stepped into the court.

Everyone also understands that it is the crown prince who has just entered the court, so that he can save Yu Xin from the furious Hongwu Emperor.I also have to say that the rumors from the outside world are true, and that the crown prince is favored by the Supreme Emperor is not groundless.

This may also require everyone to think carefully. The status of the crown prince is as stable as that of the previous emperor and today. Even if the crown prince is still young, he still has a certain influence in the court.

At least the current crown prince must be able to influence Emperor Hongwu and Emperor Yingshi at this time, which is obvious to all.In order to maintain the majesty of the crown prince, Emperor Hongwu and Emperor Yingshi would obviously 'beg to be compromised'.

At this time, Lao Zhu seemed not to continue to argue with Xiao Zhu, and said directly, "The Household Department is in charge of the imperial household registration and finance, and is in charge of territory, fields, household registration, taxes, salaries, and all financial matters. Yu Xin dismissed from office, and the Household Department Shangshu cannot be empty."

Lao Zhu's words made many people feel strange expressions. You must know that during the Hongwu Dynasty, the six books of ministers were often vacant, and that was the norm.

After taking a look at the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, Lao Zhu made a final decision. "Wang Dunlian, the governor of Zhejiang Province, has a quite official voice, and moved to the Ministry of Household Affairs."

Wang Dun, this is the Jinshi examination in the 26th year of the Yuan Dynasty, and he was also the county magistrate of the Yuan Dynasty.In the Ming Dynasty, he was enlisted to be the head of the Ministry of Rites, promoted to the general judge of Changsha Prefecture, etc. He successively participated in politics in Fujian, and served as the chief envoy in Zhejiang.

Many people were surprised by this candidate, because Wang Dun can be said to be a former court official. He basically served as a local official in the Ming Dynasty and had almost no experience as a Beijing official.

Moreover, this person is also from Kaifeng Prefecture, so he can be regarded as a "northern person". After all, after the shame of Jingkang, Kaifeng was not under the rule of the Han people.

It’s just that it’s not surprising now. Many people even think that Wang Dun can suddenly become the Minister of the Household Department. A large part of the reason is because he has rich experience in local officials and people-friendly officials.

After all, Emperor Yingshi intended to let the six ministers know about the various situations of the people, and it has been stipulated that the six ministers must have the experience of local officials. This is something that many people know.These actually caused many Beijing officials to complain.

For example, the nobles who have been struggling in the Imperial Academy, or some Beijing officials who have been working in Yingtian Mansion, their official careers seem to have seen the ceiling, and their promotion is restricted without the resume of local officials.

It seems that there is only such a requirement for the six ministers, but everyone knows that such a requirement can actually be extended, and the servants of the six departments should actually have the experience of local officials.

Furthermore, if you want to become a minister of the Six Departments, you must have the experience of being in charge of the government. This does not mean that being a magistrate at the beginning of your official career is enough to complement the resume of a magistrate, and magistrates without a certain level cannot be included. inspected.

At this time, Lao Zhu continued, "First, the magistrate of Tianfu blocked the people from appealing. Although the crown prince punished him, it was not enough. Let him be dismissed from office and sent to Korea to see the effect."

This time everyone stopped talking, the magistrate of Yingtian Mansion was not just unlucky, but also knew the law and violated the law, underestimating Emperor Hongwu's love for the people.

This distribution to Goryeo is considered a 'good thing'. If it wasn't for the lack of some officials in Goryeo, it might be that the family would be ransacked and exterminated.After all, Emperor Hongwu had never been merciful to such officials.

"Huang Guan, the right servant of the household department, also serves as the magistrate of Yingtian Mansion." Lao Zhu continued to speak at this time, making arrangements.

Everyone was not surprised. The position of the prefect of Yingtian Mansion is special after all. Usually, there are indeed examples of six ministers serving as the prefect of Yingtian Mansion. It is not a big surprise, and everyone thinks it is acceptable.Of course, there may be no objections.

Regarding these arrangements of Lao Zhu, everyone has no opinion. After all, Emperor Hongwu did not promote some people by leapfrogging.Although some candidates may not satisfy some interested people, it is not easy to find any reason to object, so I can only accept it.

Even with such a quick cut, Lao Zhu confirmed these more sensitive official positions in one go.Maybe such an arrangement does have some influence on the pattern and trend of the court.

Obviously, Zhu Yunying didn't need to pay attention to these things in the court, the main reason was these arrangements of Lao Zhu, Zhu Yunying had already known it well.Even this script was arranged by Zhu Yunying, Lao Zhu and Xiao Xiaozhu were acting together.

Zhu Yunying didn't have to care about the affairs in the court, and could continue to review the memorial.

Hugh Mu or something is a luxury for Zhu Yunying!
