Chapter 387 The Emperor Doesn't Need To Arrest People (Subscribe)

Before Zhang Yong came back, Zhu Houzhao had asked Qiuyun to change the maids.

In this way, the eunuch and the court lady formed a situation in which two people he was 100% assured were responsible for each, which was better after all.

In fact, the eunuch itself will not pose a threat to the emperor.
Like Liu Jin,

Doesn't someone as smart as him understand that he has done a lot of evil things, maybe the emperor dug a hole for him?
He understands.

But he has no choice.

He can only constantly show his value in front of the imperial power.

At the beginning, the emperor told him to be a lone minister, and the way of life of a lone minister is one, loyalty.

But even if Liu Jin is fine, Zhu Houzhao still feels insecure. After all, there are tens of thousands of eunuchs, and Liu Jin can't cover everything.

Perhaps this has something to do with him being a modern person.

Some time ago, so many people died in the palace, which had some impact on his psychology.

Because of empathy, if he is an eunuch and meets such an emperor, when he is desperate, he will be stabbed even if he says anything. Is he just let him be killed?

On the other side,
Yan Song also caught up with Gu Zuo.

He is now like this Gu Shilang's assistant, some things are not convenient for the emperor to say, so he has to come forward.

Gu Zuo knew him well, so he didn't reject people thousands of miles away, but walked side by side with him.

This is a long straight road, with tall and bright red walls on both sides, and there is no one else except the two of them.

"Servant Yan, please stay safe."

Yan Song is still very skillful, so he said something else first, "... His Majesty is a little free these days. So I talked a few more words with the attendants. But..."

Speaking of this, Yan Song suddenly smiled, laughing so much that Gu Zuo didn't know why.

"What's interesting?"

"...No. Even when His Majesty talks to the attendants when he has free time, he rarely talks about romantic affairs, and most of them are about government affairs. What are the difficulties, whether there is any progress in the library garden, when will the city that never sleeps be opened, will it be a good meeting, can other big cities be imitated..."

"That's why His Majesty is very happy that Situ sent a note today."

Speaking of which,
Gu Zuo's heart suddenly twitched!
The emperor expected him so much, but he didn't bring the emperor any progress!On the contrary, he said all kinds of irrelevant words! !

What eunuch disorderly governs, what does this have to do with him.

Gu Zuo looked at Yan Song again, and found that he was smiling, but there was something in his words, it was not simple!
It is said that those who come out of the attendant room are definitely not ordinary people, and it seems that it is true.

"Gu Shilang, why did you stop?"

Yan Song took two more steps, only to realize that Gu Zuo was several steps behind him, and it turned out that he had stopped at the same place.

Gu Zuo was thinking whether he should go back and plead guilty to the emperor, but it didn't seem right.

"Thank you, Attendant Yan." He shook his arms in salute, and sincerely said this to the young man in front of him.

Yan Song also returned the gift. After all, he is a favored official with the potential to join the cabinet, but he still refused to admit it on the surface, "Where is Situ, the lower official hasn't said anything."

Gu Zuo is not interested in this kind of vain politeness.

"Servant Yan, please go back. For the rest of the journey, Gu will go by himself."

Yan Song made a bow,

Looking at Gu Zuo's back, he fell into deep thought: I hope you can walk the rest of the way by yourself.

Then he let out a long sigh of relief, and it was done.

Imperial Palace Ouchi, it is really tiring to say such sensitive words and do such subtle operations.

In fact, all of Gu Liqing's actions are because he underestimated His Majesty.He imagined that the emperor is a powerful monarch, and no one can mess with his politics.But I just couldn't think of it. Is it possible that the emperor acquiesced in all this?

In this case, in fact, the emperor made it clear that he wanted to throw some dirty work into Liu Jin's hands.

At this time, you said in front of the emperor, what happened to Liu Jin, how do you ask the emperor to answer?

So when Yan Song was listening, he knew that what the young Situ said was wrong. Later, he only got the word "know".

In fact, for Gu Zuo,

He doesn't need to take care of these bullshit things. When he meets such a good emperor, as long as he does his own thing well, he can remain invincible.

Yan Song also shook his head, hoping he could understand.

Afterwards, he returned to the Qianqing Palace to return to his mission, but he did not see the emperor. After waiting for a long time, he saw that the emperor came in with... Zhang Yong.

Zhang Yong!He is back!
Yan Song lowered his head and rolled his eyes,

Zhang Yong came back when Liu Jin was in great power.

What an obvious move, His Majesty just loosened Liu Jin's rein on purpose!
"Didn't you go to see Gu Liqing?"

"Return to Your Majesty, I have seen you."

"Did you bring the words?"

"Yes."

"What did you say?"

Yan Song didn't lie, so he repeated exactly what he and Gu Zuo said.

Zhu Houzhao was a little stunned when he heard that,

This Yan Song is so precise, so refined, and conveys all the meanings in place in a simple sentence, and the way of expression is so ingenious.

As expected of someone who left his name in the history books.

"I see, you've done a good job."

"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty."

Since Wang Xian left, there were only three people left in the attendant room, Jin Gui, Xie Pi and Yan Song.

The latter two came in together, Yan Song seems to be stronger now, he has a high understanding and understands the court, while Xie Pi seems to be a bit step-by-step.

In fact, it is not a problem to follow the steps step by step. How can you come up with new ideas every day in this kind of place?

Jin Gui also followed the steps, but he has one advantage, that is, he is careful, extremely careful.Zhu Houzhao doesn’t remember a single time when the things passed through his hands were words or numbers. Even if he was wrong, if you keep asking, it’s because the person who told him the information was wrong.

So don't be afraid of following the steps, if you are not afraid, you are afraid of not having characteristics.After all, you must have a characteristic, so that the emperor can 'arrange according to his aptitude'.

When the servants went out, Fengxi was in Fujian as the chief minister, and Guo Shangkun was in Yingtianfu to participate in politics, and it will be a year in a few months.

Jin Gui is actually four years older than Fengxi.

With nothing to do, Zhu Houzhao began to think about employing people again.

Jin Gui didn't speak much when he was in Zhan Shi's house, he was a boring donkey, but he did things unambiguously.

So this style can actually do anything, because he is careful and serious. It is nothing more than a question of whether he is good at it.

Behind being careful and serious is actually patience, don't worry, and do things bit by bit.

After thinking about it, Zhu Houzhao thought that a place really needs such people who don't talk nonsense, take their time but also do things seriously and patiently.
That is to control rivers, especially the Yellow River.

It is of course useful for you to ask for a 'water conservancy expert', but no matter what kind of expert he is, it is almost impossible to do well without sinking his heart and looking at the problems carefully and even on the ground.

Zhejiang governor Wang Qiong himself is also an expert in river management, and his "Caohe Tuzhi" is still in the academy.

But Zhu Houzhao would not ask him to treat the Yellow River, because he was thinking about getting promoted wherever he went, so it is estimated that the chair of Prime Minister Hedao has not been warmed up, and the eyes of the Yellow River have not been looked at for a few times. It's not good to stare at the capital.

Harnessing the Yellow River must be a long-term effort, and it must be studied and explored by one person for several years or even decades.

But it is suitable for Wang Qiong to be the governor of Zhejiang, because Zhejiang has maritime trade and officials who need to be smart, at least they can’t send the pedantic old man in the court there, otherwise they will tell the emperor every day that this is not okay, and that is not okay, so what’s the point? ?
In addition, if he wanted to be promoted, he had to be very concerned about the emperor's holy will.Wouldn't the emperor feel better if such a person was placed in a financial and taxation center in the southeast?
Therefore, the key to employing people is to be suitable.

However, Zhu Houzhao felt that Jin Gui's appointment should wait for a while.

Because he is the last 'old man', the time Yan Song and Xie Pi came in is too short.

In addition, there was a vacant seat in the attendant's room, which actually attracted people's attention.

So far, the emperor has not accepted any recommendation,

Because he wanted to put someone with a special role in the attendant room.

……

This is roughly what the emperor has to consider, which is essentially boring, such as employing people, setting up or how to adjust institutions, and so on.But Zhu Houzhao found it interesting, like playing a game, giving different characters different tasks.

And the specific things are still done by the people below.

Liu Jin has sent people from Dongchang out,

It is a serious crime to talk about the government indiscriminately, and it is even more unforgivable to say that eunuchs mess with the government.

In fact, there should be quite a few people who say this, but most of them are not stunned. People know to say it in their own homes, and they hide in a relatively secret place to say it secretly when they are not in their own home.

But there are also a few people who may be famous for their straight fighting, or for their boldness, but he really dares to say it in public.

So things are simple, say it's okay on the first day, say it's okay on the second day, but on the third day...

Dongchang Fanzi kicked the door directly with a 'kuang' kick,

"Censor Shao Guoyi, Ying Tian's sons Shao Chunxin, Fan Minggui, and Yan Yuwen, made false comments on the imperial court's national policy in public, tarnished the reputation of the Holy One, and repeatedly, without repentance, is really abominable! Come, arrest all four of them and bring them to justice! "

On the second floor of the restaurant, Dongchang fanzi's footsteps sounded ding ding dong dong, a group of scholars gathered around and dared not speak,
Some secretly left the building and prepared to run away.

After all, when Shao Guoyi said it, they were all too close, what if they were implicated?

But apart from fear, there was also anger in the crowd.It's just the scimitar on Dongchang Fanzi's waist that kept many people calm.

"I want to go to attend you! Your Majesty's next generation of heroes, how can you be fooled by you! Don't think that only you, Eunuch Liu, can hear your Majesty, and we can also go to Shu!"

……

"The treacherous eunuch is really narrow-minded, it must be because of the eunuch's disorderly government, so he holds a grudge!"

But the leader of Dongchang is not afraid of the eyes of these people,

"Where are you going?! What are you saying about eunuchs messing up the government? Huh, if there is no supervisor of ceremonies, those evil officials in the salt class would not be protected by you people who are full of benevolence and morality! It's really shameful !"

"Zhuzi!" Shao Guoyi blushed with anger, "You are worthy of saying shameless! We are all saints and sages, and what we did was for the people of the country and the common people!"

"A lot of nonsense. If you really want to serve the people, you should say that the ceremonial supervisor is a good supervisor. Instead of talking about eunuchs messing up the government."

The leader of Dongchang was also rude, but he knew that bickering would not win these people, so he tied his hands behind his back and pushed them downstairs without any delay!
"take away!"
