Alliance of the Heavens and Ming Dynasty

Chapter 474 Simple Tasks Are Not Simple

"Father wants to hear your opinion on today's matter."

The two father and son walked side by side, Zhu Houzhao said softly to Zhu Qiyuan, his gestures were majestic, and there was no trace of anger on his body.

The purpose of furious and furious in the court is to teach the officials an unforgettable lesson, so that the officials will deeply remember that even if he seldom manages things now, it is not their turn to act recklessly.

In front of his son, there is no need to pretend. After all, he has never seen any kind of shitty things along the way. If he would get angry at any of them, he should have died of anger long ago.

Life is like a play, it all depends on acting!

"Father, are you not angry anymore?"

Looking at his father who changed his face faster than turning the pages of a book, Zhu Qiyuan hadn't turned the corner yet.

He was so angry in the court, and turned his head with a calm face. He really couldn't see which side was the real Zhu Houzhao.

"Angry, what's there to be angry about, since your father and I have been intriguing with others since we ascended the throne as Yuji, the two big or small things can make me lose my composure, they are all pretending. "

Zhu Houzhao said calmly.

Shi Xingfeng's rumors to confuse the public, and officials from the household department embezzling pensions are nothing. He has seen many things worse than this.

"Then you were in the hall just now."

Zhu Hou took care of this silly son, and said meaningfully: "The majesty of the emperor needs to be maintained. If you let it go, and wait for the officials to forget the majesty of the emperor, then things will be troublesome."

"Wang Mang usurped the Han, and Chen Qiao's mutiny all happened when the emperor's majesty was completely lost."

Zhu Qiyuan nodded half-understood. He used to wander around the rivers and lakes, but his thinking has not completely changed from a prodigal son to a superior person.

The prodigal son only cares about being happy and happy, while the superior has to consider all aspects.

"Tell me what you think."

Zhu Houzhao deliberately tested Zhu Qiyuan's overall view.

"The matter of Shi Xingfeng's demonic words to confuse the public, my son thinks it should have something to do with the culture of literati in other dynasties."

"In other dynasties, there are many preferential treatment policies for literati groups, but in this dynasty, the best preferential treatment is free admission, and the rest of the preferential treatment are not only non-existent, but also have various restrictions."

"Those students from various dynasties who came to study in this dynasty and are used to the wind and snow are not used to the atmosphere of this dynasty, and it is not surprising that they intend to change the policy of this dynasty's treatment of literati students."

"Spend a little money to manage it up and down. If it succeeds, then Shi Xingfeng probably took bribes to speak out. After all, the salary of a small general manager is far less than that of an official of the Six Departments and Three Courts."

"And here, there are no students from this dynasty who are contributing to the flames. In other dynasties, as long as you become a juren, you will have various benefits. In this dynasty, you used to have them, but you canceled them."

"He has something for the students, but I don't have it for the students, so it's inevitable that I'm out of balance."

"If you follow Shi Xingfeng's suggestion and increase the treatment of his court students, my court students will definitely follow suit. At that time, someone will definitely take advantage of the situation and propose to restore the old system."

"In this way, Shi Xingfeng, the students of all dynasties, and the students of this dynasty will all benefit."

At this moment, Zhu Qiyuan seems to have got the true biography of Zhu Houzhao, analyzing the problem from different angles, not to mention penetrating, but also talking about the point, which makes Zhu Houzhao look at him with admiration.

"It's not bad at all. Shi Xingfeng's rumors to confuse the crowd seem to be the rumors of a family, but in fact there are several forces behind it."

Zhu Houzhao gave Zhu Qiyuan an appreciative look: "You can look at problems from different angles, you have made progress!"

This was the first time he was satisfied with Zhu Qiyuan.

In the past, Zhu Qiyuan was unrestrained and always loved to toss about endlessly. He had a headache and was helpless.

"What about the misappropriation of the pension by the officials of the household department?"

Zhu Qiyuan thought for a while, and said solemnly: "The reason for this matter is not important, what is important is to give an explanation to the families of the soldiers who died in battle."

Zhu Houzhao smiled very happily. His son who had caused him headaches since he was a child has finally matured. He patted Zhu Qiyuan on the shoulder and said with satisfaction:

"Yes, the reason is not important, it is nothing more than cleaning up a group of officials who have become corrupt over time."

"The most important thing at the moment is to appease the families of the soldiers who died in battle, and express to the millions of soldiers across the country that the court attaches great importance to them. Even if they die in battle, the court will not ignore their families."

"The army is the backbone of a country, and the morale of the army is particularly important."

"Ministers can die. There are countless people in the world. There are so many who want to be officials and those who can be officials. Just kill a few and find someone to take over."

"Three-legged toads are hard to find, and people with two legs are everywhere. Don't take officials too seriously."

"And the morale of the army must not be lost no matter what. If the morale of the army is in chaos, it will be even more difficult to reintegrate."

After a pause, he continued, "Well, take some time in the future to visit the families of the soldiers whose pensions have been embezzled."

"I see."

Zhu Qiyuan agreed, and it would be good if he could go out for a walk, anyway, he also disliked following Zhu Houzhao's boring review of the memorial.

Moreover, he and his eldest grandson Wugou were newly married, and being dragged by Zhu Houzhao to learn how to deal with government affairs, he felt that his wife was left out in the cold.

For a man, for the first time in his life, he can't help but taste the marrow.

"Afterwards, you will go to Huguang Chaling again, and visit Mr. Li Dongyang of Dongyang Academy."

"He is your father and my teacher. It will be of great benefit to you in the future to ask him more about the art of governing the country."

Zhu Houzhao looked into the distance, and sighed silently in his heart, hoping that Li Dongyang would not let him down, and not touch his bottom line with some people who were ready to move.

He had killed enough people in his life, and he didn't want to get his teacher's blood on his hands again.

Go visit your father's teacher!

Zhu Qiyuan raised his eyebrows slightly. He always felt that Zhu Houzhao had something to say, and his purpose was definitely not as simple as it appeared on the surface, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he could only accept this seemingly simple task.

"Discuss with your daughter-in-law more about things, she can see more clearly than you."

Zhu Houzhao told him that he chose Zhu Qiyuan's eldest grandson Wugou as his wife through thousands of choices, because he wanted his eldest grandson Wugou to be Zhu Qiyuan's right-hand man, not to let him be a vase.

After explaining the matter, Zhu Houzhao went back to the Leopard Room, and Zhu Qiyuan went back to his Prince Jing's Mansion.

The sons are all married, and it is somewhat inappropriate to live in the Leopard Room.

After a court meeting, a major earthquake broke out in the officialdom!

Under the influence of Shi Xingfeng, the Association of Hundred Families was purged. Since Yang Shen, most officials were investigated, and only a small number of clean and self-sufficient people were preserved.

And as the beginning of the storm, Shi Xingfeng's house was ransacked directly, his whole family was assigned to border gates, and went to open up no-man's land, and he himself was assigned to Dark Feather Star to mine, and he lived a life that would be better than death.

Hundreds of associations were investigated, Shi Xingfeng had a bleak ending, and the Six Departments and Three Hospitals were not much better.

Jin Yiwei took action to thoroughly investigate the embezzlement of pensions. In just seven days, a large number of people involved in the case were arrested. Excluding those outside the court, there were more than 100 officials alone.

From the center of the imperial court to the local government, the official positions are high or low, but without exception, they will all face a miserable future.

This was the first large-scale purge since the end of the Civil Service Group, scaring countless officials into restless nights, fearing that they would be implicated.

Fortunately, Zhu Houzhao just wanted to frighten the officials, not to set off a big purge. After arresting all the people involved in the case, he ordered Jin Yiwei to stop. For a long time after that, the officials were still in fear.
