Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 737 Emperor (tomorrow change)

Sitting high on the dragon chair, Zhu Yunying seemed to want to see the expressions of civil and military officials, and seemed to want to figure out some of their thoughts.

This shouldn't be too difficult, and of course it's not that simple, it depends on the eyesight of an emperor.

Zhu Yunying knew very well that the next period of time would not be easy, maybe a lot of things would happen, and there would definitely be some civil and military officials to fight against.

There is nothing to say, everything is still to look at the wrist, this is the best way.

It seems that not only some civil servants are not willing to move the capital, but also many military officials are not willing to move the capital.

The reason is actually very simple. Relatively speaking, the south of the Yangtze River is more prosperous, while the north is more bitter and cold.These are indisputable facts, so it is human nature that people do not want to go to places with bitter cold.

In addition, everyone also understands that the number of civil and military officials in the court, even if there have been some trends in the past few years, the number of northerners who are officials is increasing.But in any case, there are obviously more southerners who are officials.

These are all facts. After leaving my base camp, I would feel somewhat uncomfortable in my heart.

To be more realistic, whether it is civil servants or military generals, most people's family assets and so on are also in the south.If they go to the north, it will be difficult for them to take care of their family assets, which is obviously not a good thing.

Everyone understands the truth. The emperor understands these things, and the civil and military officials understand these things even more. After all, these things also involve their own interests, which means that they are more concerned and concerned about it.

It's just that no matter what opinions these people have, it seems that there is no way to change the emperor's mind now. Those are unrealistic things.Because the emperor has already made a decision, this matter is already a done deal.

Ru Yu, the head of civil servants, came to the Hall of Martial Ying, Zhu Yunying said seriously, "Aiqing, if you think about it, you also know that the emperor's grandfather passed away, and the clan and all the officials should also observe filial piety. If someone does the act of no king and no father, What should I do?"

Ru Yu was startled, and hurriedly said, "Return to Your Majesty, the imperial court has its own laws, and the punishment should be severe."

Zhu Yunying nodded in satisfaction, and then said, "Big companion, show it to Ru Qing."

Do you really think Jinyiwei and Dongchang are vegetarians?During this period of time, they have been constantly monitoring, but any Beijing officials who drink and have fun will basically be recorded.

Although I dare not say that everyone has been found out, most of the people who have such a fluke mentality have been found out.

All of this is their own fault. They are not upright, unable to control their appetites, and unable to control the temptation of women. Once their bright future is ruined, they can’t blame others. This can only be caused by themselves. fruit.

It's no wonder that Zhu Yunying is so strict. Apart from the deep relationship between him and Lao Zhu, the more important thing is that Zhu Yunying must emphasize the rule of law and etiquette at this time.If some people didn't take it seriously during the funeral of the founding king, it also shows that some people didn't care about the majesty and laws of the court at all.

This is not only emphasized by the Ming Dynasty, it has been the same in all dynasties. It is absolutely intolerable for civil and military officials to drink and have fun during the emperor's funeral. This is disrespectful, and such behavior is absolutely intolerable.

Looking at the list, Ru Yuan was startled, but she was also slightly relieved.

How should I put it, although there are so many people who don't respect the etiquette, it also annoys him.But luckily among misfortunes, there were not some important court officials involved, which can be regarded as fortunately among misfortunes.

It seems that to be able to rank high in the temple, these people also have some sense of propriety, and they all understand how difficult it is to climb to the current position.

This is naturally a good thing, as long as no important officials are involved, then everything is within the controllable range, and there is no need to worry about causing too much disturbance.As for some middle and low-level officials, their official careers were ruined, or they were going to be in trouble, so there is really no one else to blame.

It's not that Ru Xun is cold-blooded, but that he is also annoyed by such things. Normal Confucian children can't accept these behaviors without a king and a father.At least on the bright side, everyone is unacceptable and must be severely criticized.

Zhu Yunying looked at Ru Yu, and said calmly, "Since that's the case, Aiqing should deal with these matters first, and then report to me."

Ru Xun naturally comprehended, but he dared not be careless.Although I have been with His Majesty for more than ten years, I think I understand the character of today's emperor very well.But after these two years, he felt more and more unpredictable about the Sacred Heart.

When facing the emperor, Ru Yu also became more and more cautious, and now he must be more cautious and cautious when facing the emperor.Do your own business well in a down-to-earth manner, and you must not make some mistakes at these times, especially some mistakes that could have been avoided.

Seeing that Ru Yu seemed to have something to say, Zhu Yunying said directly, "Ai Qing, step down first."

Ru Yuan, who was full of words and wanted to talk, could only leave at this time. Although he wanted to report something to His Majesty, he could not disobey the holy will.Or His Majesty didn't give him any chance to speak at all, just waiting to discuss some things in the court.

If the emperor really has such thoughts, Ru Yu really doesn't think there is anything strange, and even thinks that this is the character of the emperor.Especially at such a juncture, it is only natural for His Majesty to do so.

After Ru Yu left, Chang Mao also entered the palace, Zhu Yunying directly threw a copy to Chang Mao, "Look, this is the honor of the emperor's favor. They dared to drink and have fun during the emperor's grandfather's funeral. How dare you have disrespectful words and deeds?!"

Chang Mao panicked, but he could guarantee that Kaiping Wang Yimai would have no problems, and everyone would abide by their duties.However, if some other martial artists drank in private, it seemed that there was nothing strange about it. Some people always lost their minds.

This is not just talking casually, it is because of Wu Xun's background, or because he is relatively dandy, Chang Mao is more aware of some Wu Xun's practices, and is more aware of how unreasonable some Wu Xun is if he is a dandy.

Zhu Yunying let out a long sigh and said, "I have always wanted to have a good story about the relationship between the monarch and his ministers, but I am afraid that many people don't think so. They are also embarrassing me for doing this!"

At this time, Chang Mao quickly expressed his position, "Your Majesty, these evil deeds are really heinous, and no one else can blame them."

Zhu Yunying looked a little sad, and said, "That being said, many of them are after the founding of the country, and the merits of the ancestors are squandered by these unworthy descendants. It is heartbreaking to think about it. Punish them severely, I can't bear it. If there is no punishment, the court will not be able to account for it, let alone explain to the emperor's grandfather."

Chang Mao naturally understood that His Majesty definitely wanted to punish him severely, and it was not so easy to fool around with this matter.

Everyone is aware of many things. In fact, His Majesty has not been less troublesome during this period of time, and there are not one or two martial arts who have been stripped of their titles.

It seems that there is not much bloodshed, but once such a thing happens, it must mean that it will not be so light.

Perhaps it is not as lingering fear and precarious as the Hu Weiyong case back then, but now that some mistakes have been made, it is quite normal that Wu Xun, who was originally aloof, will be demolished in an instant. .

Emperor Hongwu dealt with Wu Xun so harshly, and Emperor Yingshi was also very decisive.The common feature of these two emperors is that once they are dissatisfied with some people, they will naturally appear so mean.

There is nothing wrong with being mean, the main reason is that there are indeed too many martial arts in the Ming Dynasty now, and it needs to be cleaned up a little bit.The military team left by Lao Zhu for Zhu Yunying is not bad, but among the founding nobles' team, there are also good and bad teams.

These naturally mean that Zhu Yunying needs to make some choices, and he really has to make decisions on many things.

Chang Mao naturally knew what he should do, or he knew better now that at such a time, he didn't expect to persuade the emperor to change his mind, or plead for some Wu Xun who committed crimes. Follow in the emperor's footsteps.

It's not necessarily because the emperor is his nephew, it's simply that those Wu Xun's things are not on the table, even if they want to intercede for them, they will all lose face, and what those people did is true is annoying.

As for saying that he, the leader of martial arts, cannot protect people, Chang Mao actually doesn't really care about these things.

He himself is just an empty air now, who doesn't know that he, Duke Kaiping, is relying on his status as the emperor's uncle and the son of King Kaiping, and he is an out-and-out dude, there is nothing to say at all.

It's not a big deal if you can't protect people. What the Chang family needs to do over the years is to slowly reduce their influence. This is the real way to pass on the family.After all, the Chang family has different identities, and some things are indisputable, and that is the best way.

Since Chang Mao is so sensible, Zhu Yunying also showed a little smile, "Uncle, it's no wonder that we are mean about this matter, and I also can't blame uncle for not thinking about the love of robes and the love of father and ancestor, but those people may have ignored the father in Fugui Township a long time ago." .”

Chang Mao was a little embarrassed, and then said, "Your Majesty, these ministers also know about it. Nowadays, in Yingtian Mansion, most of them are dudes, and most of them are from honorable families. There are quite a few capable ministers of the same generation. These few were also born and raised before the founding of the country, and most of them had military experience in their early years."

These are also true. Basically, most of the second generation of Wu Xun were born before the founding of the country, and they can be regarded as born out of hardship.All of them also generally have military experience.Not to mention that all of them are outstanding in military exploits, but they are also somewhat capable, not completely embroidered pillows.

But many of the three generations of Wu Xun are a bit hard to say. All of them can be regarded as being born with golden keys in their mouths. Many of them are indeed a bit content with pleasure, and many of them are indeed a bit of a dude and don’t have much talent. ability.

There are some dudes in Wu Xun, these are really no secrets, these are also known facts.

These can also be regarded as the reasons why Zhu Yunying wants to clean up some nobles. Of course, he hopes that the Wuxun Group will maintain a certain vitality and needs to have some fresh blood. Zhu Yunying absolutely couldn't tolerate the look of lying on the credit book and sleeping peacefully.

Fortunately, the current Wuxun Group also has fresh blood. The Northern Expedition and the war against Goryeo did indeed have some fresh blood. pressure.

It is impossible to really sit back and relax. The emperor always has a way to let those people keep moving forward. He has to constantly spur them. It is impossible to want to be rich and rich all the time. Wu Xun has Wu Xun responsibilities and definitions.

To be honest, if Wu Xun wants to enjoy wealth in peace, there is nothing wrong with it. Zhu Yunying actually doesn't mind Wu Xun's family enjoying wealth in peace, or sometimes acts more rampantly, this is not a problem.

But the key point is that these martial arts families will come in handy at critical moments.They can be content with having fun, and they can look domineering.And once it's time to fight, these warriors will go into battle clamoring.

This is the definition of Wu Xun. Once they can't even do these things, they must be prepared to be eliminated.

Now the Son of Heaven seems to be trying to clean up some people on purpose, and he wants to clean up some of the martial arts, which must be done.

Zhu Yunying understands these principles, and Chang Mao probably understands these principles, and many martial artists also understand these principles.

Everyone understands these reasons, but whether you can recognize these things and then deal with them well is another matter.After all, in this world, the most indispensable thing is that many people understand some truths, but they will not change, and they will still go their own way.

Continuing to summon some important ministers, this can be regarded as a relatively clear signal, maybe some people should know that something is going to happen, maybe some people should also know that in the next period of time, many people's lives will probably be different. So much better.

But this is something that can’t be helped, because the Son of Heaven has decided to make some changes, and many people are obviously powerless to fight. This is the fact.After all, what they were facing was a young and ambitious emperor, a powerful emperor.

If you want to fight against such an emperor, you will feel somewhat overwhelmed.

Zhu Yunying obviously understands these principles, but he also understands that there must still be some people who want to fight, and maybe some people want to use the mantis' arms as a cart.
