Da Ming Tai Shi

Chapter 86 Zhu Biao smashes the "cylinder"

"I wronged you today."

When these words came out of Zhu Biao's mouth, Chen Yunfu was really moved.

After he came out of the East Pavilion, he came to the Prince's Mansion, because he still had some matters to report to Zhu Biao face to face, and this was the first sentence the latter said after seeing Chen Yunfu.

I have wronged you.

Is this an apology from the prince?
Chen Yunfu didn't dare, and said with true feelings: "Serving for His Highness, I only feel honored and will never be wronged."

"Then Li's original name is not a thing." Zhu Biao walked with his hands behind his back, his face frosty and said: "I have stopped those nonsense memorabilia of the Ministry of Rites, and he actually took his anger on you, and dared to make trouble in front of the court. I don't know Anyway."

"Li Butang is the Minister of Rites after all."

"He's just trying!"

Zhu Biao waved his hand: "Let him write down this matter, you are so angry today, Gu will help you out."

This Zhu Biao, really treats himself as a servant?

Chen Yunfu's heart was burning hot. It would be too heartless to say that he was not moved. Now Zhu Biao is really kind to him, not to mention the special car. At the critical moment, Zhu Biao, the big brother, has something to do.

Listen to what this said, isn't it just a minister of the Ministry of Rites.

I didn't say anything, because of this, I, Old Chen, will vote for you in my life.

If Mr. Zhu raises the banner to rebel, I, Mr. Chen, will be the first to take the lead against him.

You transfer Sapphire to me as the lieutenant general, and you promise not to lose.

"Your Highness has shown such great kindness to the lower officials, how can the lower officials repay you?"

"What are you talking about? You are a lonely official. Who else can you turn to if you don't want to be alone." Zhu Biao waved his hand and said, "These courtiers are holding back their minds all day long, either impeaching this or impeaching that. Don't focus on serious matters, public affairs and government affairs are often delayed and slack, let's say that I am sitting in the palace today, and there are only so few things in the six departments and five temples, and it took more than two hours to deal with them.

This efficiency is not as fast as Yunfu and you alone. What is the time wasted and what is the time wasted? "

Chen Yunfu raised his hands in agreement with Zhu Biao's words.

This ancient administrative efficiency is indeed extremely procrastinated.

This group of so-called servants of the Shangshu seems to be just a mouthpiece. Even the local sesame and mung bean affairs have to be reported on the outline and online. Chen Yunfu is puzzled. What do these ministers do every day? ?

Could it be said that as the head of the six ministries, he doesn't even have the power to approve three or five hundred taels of silver? Isn't this lazy administration?

No matter how big or small it is, you all push it to Zhu Biao. You really don't have to worry about making mistakes. If you are all officials like you, then a fucking dog on a leash can do well, so what do you need?

Official inaction is as hateful as corruption.

However, this is also a malady developed by China's feudal officialdom for thousands of years. I would rather not do it than do it wrong.

"This is what they call the golden mean." Chen Yunfu said in a muffled voice: "Everything is up to you and you are afraid of being impeached and arrogating power, so you simply don't make up your mind about everything, and they will do their best for all the errands assigned by His Majesty and His Highness." If it is done well, it will neither make mistakes nor lose a solid and capable image.”

"Yeah, just like that donkey, it won't move without whipping a few times."

Zhu Biao thought so deeply, and said with emotion: "If you don't do things, you are lazy, and if you do things, you are arbitrarily arbitrary. They are worried that they will not be able to grasp the middle degree, so they simply created the so-called moderation.

If the father and the orphan confessed to it, they would do it, and if they didn't explain it, they would not do it. In this case, why would the country use them? Finding some mules to serve as officials is no more hardworking than them. "

After sighing, Zhu Biao said again: "You are also very uncomfortable with this?"

Chen Yunfu didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "Not only are the officials not used to this, but they also disdain the so-called unspoken rules in the officialdom."

"What unspoken rules?"

"A courtier must be corrupt."

Chen Yunfu said bluntly: "The lower officials heard that apart from being a courtier, you must not exercise power, but you must be greedy for money and lustful, so that you can leave a handle in the hands of the king, so that the king dares to use you with confidence and is not afraid. If you are not loyal in doing things, because once you are unfaithful, these excuses will be used to kill you, so officials who are not greedy for money and not lecherous often do not live long."

Zhu Biao was taken aback when he heard the words, and then burst out laughing louder and louder.

"Anything like that?"

Chen Yunfu shrugged and said helplessly: "Many people think so, and it seems to be axiomatic."

"It's so ridiculous!" Zhu Biao laughed and snorted coldly: "If we say this, the country should reuse corrupt officials, so that the whole world will be loyal and filial sons. In fact, Guo Huan's party almost destroyed us. In the Ming Dynasty, they were greedy for money and lustful, would Father dare to use it, and can they continue to use it?"

"They seem to have interpreted the truth from Wang Jian's attack on Chu."

Chen Yunfu said with a smile: "When Wang Jian conquered Chu, the army would send people back to Xianyang every thirty miles to ask the first emperor for the land of gold, silver and beauties. When he was puzzled, Wang Jian replied, "Your Majesty, give me all the soldiers of the whole country." Hand, if I don't want something, I'm afraid the king will be uneasy'.

Therefore, all the officials in later generations took Wang Jian as an example, and they did this frequently after they were in high positions. "

"The allusion of "Historical Records Wang Jian Biography"." Zhu Biao nodded and said the source of this story, and then said: "The original story of this allusion is that General Wang Jian asked the first emperor to ask Tian Yian for his descendants, but this passage The core of the future is not in the field but in the future generations.

Wang Jian conquered Chu, Qin Guokong’s 60 army was in his hands, except for Wang Jian, the Wang family is all in Xianyang, please don’t invite Tian Qin Wang is not afraid that Wang Jian will rebel, and the reason why Wang Jian invited Tian Yi’an’s younger generation, what he actually wanted to express The meaning is to tell the first emperor, "My whole family is guarding the three-acre land at home in Xianyang, so the king can rest assured."

All the monarchs and ministers understand this meaning, so there is "the first emperor laughed and allowed it". How did it add so many meanings to this story in the interpretation of later generations, and it can also be extended to the absurdity of the king's love of traitors? words.

Furthermore, the reason why General Wang Jian was victorious in all battles in his life is that he knew how to fight because of his small number of soldiers. Why did they not mention these things in the army, such as sleeping and bathing with soldiers, eating with soldiers, and spending money with them? "

Chen Yunfu held back his laughter and said, "If you keep taking meaning out of context and distorting the meaning of the scriptures, how can you find a psychological comfort for your own actions?"

There are always a lot of strange arguments in the officialdom, but you have to pay attention to observe them. These so-called arguments are actually excuses made by officials themselves to disguise their mistakes as so-called "political correctness".

Unexpectedly, they read a lot of books, and they can always quote the classics and tell a lot of historical allusions, so people who only know what it is but don't know why it is, will be deceived.

Little do they know that the contents of these quotations are also cut from the beginning to the end.

"If you are an official, don't be afraid of troubles. If you are afraid of troubles, what kind of official will you be?" Zhu Biao walked around the pond in the backyard with his hands behind his hands, and said as he walked: "I am a country as big as Ming Dynasty. If there is no trouble, I will go to the country boldly if something happens. Do it, because you are afraid of being punished if you don't do it well, you simply don't do it.

Gu often thinks again, if Gu is not as diligent as his father, and his descendants are not as diligent as Gu, then I will be messed up tomorrow. "

"The two things we both talked about today are worth thinking about."

Zhu Biao stopped in his tracks, and pondered: "Now that the court has just replaced the old with the new, we can use this to weed out a group of mediocre officials. Otherwise, if we use officials like Guo Huanyi, then the emperor will This killing is pointless."

The purpose of killing is to exchange blood. If the new blood still stinks, then killing is meaningless.

What needs to be replaced is no longer blood but blood-forming organs.

In other words, it is the atmosphere of the officialdom and some so-called rules.

"Everyone says that the officialdom is a big dye vat, so I will be Sima Guang once."

Zhu Biao snorted: "Father has a very good saying, there is nothing in this world that cannot be overthrown and restarted."
