Da Ming Tai Shi

Chapter 87 Zhu Yuanzhang is very fond of Chen Yunfu

Ever since he chatted with Chen Yunfu about smashing the 'tank' that day, Zhu Biao really took it to heart, stayed at home for half a month and didn't go out, and handed over all the six memorials of five temples to Chen Yun Just in hand.

Chen Yunfu felt a little regretful.

Fortunately, there is one more Zhao Gan.

Although this guy didn't see any particularly outstanding abilities, what kind of ability is needed to transcribe a memorandum, as long as he can write.

"You just write down the business. As for the other nonsense, don't worry about greetings, auspicious words, and reporting auspiciousness. Just look back. The last few dozen words are what the officials want to say. business."

Chen Yunfu taught it himself, and selected a few playbooks from each of the six scriptures and five monasteries to make templates for Zhao Gan.

"The Ministry of Households looks directly at the end. They are all asking for money or food. Just write down the reason and amount of money and food."

"This is for the Ministry of War. The Ministry of War is basically a matter of the Garrison Guards. Whether it is planning to recruit soldiers or send out land, you have to write down how much you want to send."

"The Ministry of Officials selects officials and inspectors, and the Ministry of Officials selects a doctor. He will write a suggestion at the end of the memorial. You can just copy this suggestion, and His Royal Highness will give a reply."

"The Ministry of Industry's is the simplest, and there is basically no nonsense, that is, construction projects cost money."

"From the Ministry of Rites, take a quick look. If you want to report auspiciousness and chastity, throw it aside, and if it's about great etiquette, write it down."

"At the end of the memorial books of the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple, there will be suggestions from the heads of the two judicial departments. Killing, exile, punishment, and release will all be written. You just need to write down these suggestions."

"As for the servants, Taichang Temple and so on, there are usually not many memorials. If you encounter them, just give them to me, and I will copy them."

Under Chen Yunfu's hand-in-hand guidance, Zhao Gan got started quite quickly, and became more proficient in a few days. At the beginning, Chen Yunfu was still worried that he would miss something. Every time Zhao Gan finished copying, he had to compare them one by one. Day will be completely relieved.

With a helper, Chen Yunfu was much more relaxed, and when he was relaxed, Zhu Biao was also much more relaxed.

It is enough to set aside an hour every day to approve the notebook, and Zhu Biao spends the rest of the time thinking about how to smash the vat.

Not so early in the morning, Zhu Biao excitedly left the mansion with a memorial book, and went straight to the palace.

"You haven't gone out for half a month, just because of this?"

Zhu Yuanzhang shifted his gaze from the playbook to Zhu Biao, amused: "So, you just fiddled with such a thing."

The latter sat under the imperial steps and nodded: "Yes, I feel that the six departments and five temples are too lazy to govern, and Ru Taisu, as the dignified Minister of the Household Department, even has to submit a 5000 tael approval document to the minister for report. .

What is the use of such a minister of the household department? I was still amazed at what a young genius Gan Luo was when he was the prime minister. If they were all officials like Ru Taisu, which 12-year-old child in my Ming Dynasty would not be able to come Be the minister of the Ministry of household affairs. "

"We know Ru Taisu very well. He can speak fluffy words better than anyone else, but when it comes to serious matters, he is vague." Zhu Yuanzhang agrees with Zhu Biao on this point: "So we demoted him to Zhejiang to serve as a leftist politician. I hope that the real things in the local area can train him, but I didn't expect that he will become more lazy after returning now, and push all the big things to you."

The dignified Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs even asked Zhu Biao for instructions on the approval of a mere 5000 taels, which made no one find it ridiculous.

If everything is waiting for the instructions of the executive leader, then as Zhu Biao said, a 12-year-old child can do the same thing as the secretary of the household department.

Anyway, whenever you encounter something, you can find Zhu Biao.

Zhu Biao said what to do. After returning to the household department, he would tell the people below what to do, and he didn't have to worry about it.

The so-called Shangshu simply became the mouthpiece of the center.

It's such an easy job.

"Ke Biaoer, while employing officials, you must also guard against them. Foreign ministers, you can't be trusted."

Zhu Yuanzhang then singled out the inappropriateness in Zhu Biao's playbook and corrected it: "Look, you request that starting from today, all the playbooks of the Ministry of Rites that report auspiciousness are not allowed to be written again. We also know that auspiciousness is fake, but auspiciousness No way, whoever makes the common people believe in this stuff, without Xiangrui, those people with ulterior motives should jump out to fool the people."

"Whoever jumps will be killed." Zhu Biao showed his domineering arrogance as a prince at this moment, and said coldly: "If you are not clean after three years, you will be five years, and if you are not clean after five years, you will be ten years old. Sooner or later, you will be reformed." To clean up this bad government, the government does not support lazy officials, otherwise, if the officials are replaced from generation to generation, the officials will still be like this, and the things that the father wants to do will never move forward."

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his brows, feeling very relieved in his heart.

Such a big boy, he actually said such bold words.

That's right, if you can't do it in three years, you can do it in five years, and if you can't do it in five years, you can do it in ten years.

Old Zhu thought to himself, with our bones, it should be no problem to live another ten years.

For ten years, it is worth doing to leave a prosperous world for Biao'er that he wants to see!
"Okay!" Zhu Yuanzhang picked up a cinnabar pen and approved it: "Baoxiang, tell Li Yuanming that the Ministry of Rites will spread the texts throughout the country. From today onwards, if the local government repays auspiciousness, whether it is the chief envoy or the county magistrate, everyone will be dismissed. There are people pretending to be ghosts and ghosts in the local area, and if they are found, they will be killed."

"Thank you, father." Zhu Biao thanked him, and then took advantage of the situation to say: "Speaking of Li's original name, I feel that this person is not worthy to be a minister of the Ministry of Rites."

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little confused. What's going on? Did Li Yuanming offend Zhu Biao?
It was Zhu Yuanzhang's intention to promote Li's original name as the minister of the Ministry of Rites. Generally speaking, Zhu Biao would never ask about this kind of personnel appointment.

"Why do you think that Li Yuanming is not worthy of being Minister of Rites?"

Zhu Biao told everything about Li Yuanming, and when he heard that Chen Yunfu was involved, Zhu Yuanzhang laughed instead.

"Biao'er, as a dignified prince, you are too stingy in this matter. How could you bring your emotions to us for the sake of two mere courtiers? Isn't it because Li Yuanming and Chen Yunfu had a quarrel? Then Chen Yunfu If he really has the ability, let him bring down Li Yuanming by himself, and it will be worthy of our high regard."

Zhu Biao wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Okay, let's not mention the matter of Li Yuanming, let's talk about Chen Yunfu, we really want to ask, how is his kid doing with you recently?"

Zhu Biao answered truthfully, and Chen Yunfu responded in an orderly manner when talking about the six departments and five temples, which made Zhu Yuanzhang also nod.

"We only thought that he was too young to handle well, and let him go to the East Palace to be your subordinate official. We originally thought that you would take him and train him for a few years, so that he could be a minister of your hidden mansion. I never thought that this kid has no teacher. Tong, you can get started so quickly."

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned again with emotion.

It's so difficult in this world, is there really someone who is born to be an official?

That's no longer a monster!

"This son is in charge of the Sixth Bureau of the Eastern Palace, has he ever acted arbitrarily, and has he ever planted cronies and suspects to sell officials and nobles?"

"That has never happened before." Zhu Biao shook his head and said, "So far, Chen Yunfu has only transferred an old official from the Metropolitan Procuratorate to serve as a secretary in the Bureau of Economics and Economics."

"What is your name?"

"Zhao Gan."

"We know."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and glanced at Baoxiang. The latter immediately understood and stepped back for a while before coming back.

The two chatted for a long time in Qianqing Palace. After lunch, a young eunuch rushed back and knelt on the ground to report.

"Going back to the emperor, the servants and others went to Liren Street where the University Scholars lived, and then to Tongqu Street where Zhao Gan lived. It was found on both sides that on the sixth day of last month, Zhao Gan carried four of them late at night. The brocade box went to the Grand Scholars’ Mansion to pay a visit. According to the Grand Scholars’ Mansion, there were only gourmet pastries and a piece of Suzhou embroidery in the brocade box. These things were distributed to the porters by the Grand Scholars that night, and then all the porters who were on duty that night were driven away. replace."

The father and son looked at each other, and Zhu Biao breathed a sigh of relief.

It is good not to be greedy.

Zhu Yuanzhang hated corrupt officials the most in his life. If Chen Yunfu dared to sell his officials, he would be beyond the reach of the king.

"After distributing all the gifts and replacing the concierge, we couldn't find anything wrong with him."

Zhu Yuanzhang was happy, and said: "Don't look at how young you are, you can do everything without leaking."

"Yunfu has the heart of a child."

"Whether you are a child or not, it doesn't matter what you say."

Zhu Yuanzhang narrowed his eyes, and said after a while: "Okay, you go back first, we have to think about other things you mentioned in this memorial."

"Yes, Erchen retire."

After Zhu Biao took his leave and left, Baoxiang bowed his waist and said, "My lord, the little master seems to know that we keep eyeliner by his side."

"We gave him all the maids of the Shang Palace Bureau. How can this kid not guess it because he is so clever."

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed: "He asked Ling'er to send something because he was sure that Ling'er would tip you off. This kind of little trick is meaningless. He thought it would convince us of his character?

No matter how smart he is, he is just a child after all, and if he is a child, it is easy to be young and crazy. After a while, let's try him, whether it is a human or a ghost, we can test it for him. "

Baoxiang's heart skipped a beat, Zhu Yuanzhang's methods are powerful, can Chen Yunfu handle it? Thinking of Zhu Biao, Baoxiang persuaded: "Your Majesty, the little master, the prince, is very comfortable with it now, and he is quite trustworthy." , with the intention of being a courtier"

"Biao'er is too lenient, that's not good." Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head, and said decisively: "If we don't find out the nature of that kid, we will definitely leave it to Biao'er. If this little guy can't use it well, will be a disaster."

"Then what is the emperor going to do?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said something, and Baoxiang's eyes widened when he heard it. After a long time, he smiled bitterly and said: "The emperor's move is very clever, but, but how can the little master be able to distinguish clearly? .”

"If this kid hadn't performed so well, we wouldn't have honed him like this."

Zhu Yuanzhang took a sip of tea, and the old god said: "We have seen a lot of capable ministers, virtuous ministers, jesters, and powerful ministers in our life, but we still don't understand what kind of quality this kid is. Let's try it. Keep it, it’s not good, just change it for Biao’er, didn’t you say what Ying Tianfu’s Xie Yuan is called this year?”

"Zed."

"Yes, isn't Biao'er very appreciative?"

"Appreciation is appreciation, and this is Qi De." Baoxiang hesitated for a long time, and then under Zhu Yuanzhang's staring eyes, he confessed: "My lord, this Qi De is really bold, he always tells the prince to withdraw from the domain."

Zhu Yuanzhang fell silent, and Baoxiang was close. He thought Zhu Yuanzhang would be angry because of this, but he was surprised to find that Zhu Yuanzhang had no murderous look on him.

"What's your opinion?"

"The prince seems to agree."

"But he hasn't told us so far." Zhu Yuanzhang muttered silently: "Biaoer, what are you still hesitating about?"

"After the test next year, arrange for Qi De to enter Zuochunfang."

"The servant has recorded it."
