Jingming

Chapter 59
Yang Tinghe couldn't find fault with the emperor's attitude towards the officials.

It's not that they don't want to speak out, but they just want to think more about things and speak with more facts.

It is no problem to characterize "hearing and playing things" as an extreme attitude that the emperor established this official position to encourage.

It is not wrong to characterize "moving on hearing the wind" as a bad virtue of speech officials.

Hearing that the wind is the rain, he is not a good person in the first place.

Then, for the large number of good vacancies that were vacated, the cabinet, the Ministry of officials, and Yuan Zonggao, a newcomer, all took care of them.

The number of officials in the six divisions has been demoted the most, and the Ministry of Officials holds the most important power to promote the officials below the third rank and above the sixth rank. Yuan Zonggao was able to choose a "sensible" one in the Ministry of Rites and then remove the "temporary" second rank of the right servant of the Ministry of Rites. Character.

This round of "Your Majesty's Holy Spirit", Mao Cheng couldn't hear it anymore.

"The next topic is the case of Qian Ning and Jiang Bin. The crimes will be tried jointly by the three judicial divisions. As for the arrangement of their nationality and no family assets, Chen Jin, you have submitted the memorial. Let's talk about why you propose such an arrangement."

When it comes to this tens of millions of taels of "windfall" arrangement, all the six ministers and nine ministers except Mao Cheng participated in and expressed their opinions.

Is Chen Jin from Yang Tinghe?

Zhu Houcong now denies this, and he, Chen Jin, was impeached miserably.

So much money is sent to the various borders, which is to put money into the mouths of the border towns and guards who are the administrators of the five armies. The rest is sent to the provinces for disaster relief, etc. The governors and inspectors of the provinces also have the right to speak. The internal affairs of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Now that the emperor asked them to discuss the disposal of the money, it was equivalent to overturning Chen Jin's disposal plan, and it was another comfort to Yang Ting and them.

Of course, Yang Tinghe and Wang Qiong have their own opinions on this.

At the same time, Yang Tinghe and other cabinet ministers still remembered what the emperor sent to the cabinet to arrange yesterday: Qingning Palace, should it be renovated?
Yan Song glanced at the emperor, and now his eyes turned into watching the excitement.

It's really interesting to watch the ministers quarreling over such a large sum of money. Each ministry has its own difficulties. The Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies also complained for Bianzhen. weak.

The emperor remained motionless, but there was a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

It was only for a moment, then Zhu Houcong continued to observe the relationship between these people.

After arguing and arguing, many people quickly discovered the difference between this negotiation and the previous ones: This time, the ministers did not express the request on the palace expenses on behalf of the emperor, nor did the Six Departments mention it.

They also finally realized the inadequacy of Chen Jin's memorandum: a "windfall" of tens of millions, it's fine to arrange it so roughly, why didn't they consider the use of Emperor Daxing's mountain mausoleum at all? At this time, the new emperor will soon have a big wedding fee, as well as a new empress dowager, a new marriageable eldest princess dowry?
Let's be clear: the emperor is young, so don't he be distinguished?

Seeing the eyes of the ministers, Zhu Houcong made another decision unexpectedly: "Since money is needed everywhere, we should first list all the money and food that need to be spent this year. How to arrange it, when the time comes I went to Dongjiao Gate to discuss with the cabinet ministers. This matter will be settled within seven days."

It's the cabinet again!

Of course, in the plan submitted by all parties, how much do you need to use, how do you plan to arrange the specific use of the silver and in which aspects instead of just talking about the total amount, how to ensure that the accounts and follow-up checks are used in place, the responsibility for the money The arrangement of the person and the main person in charge must be clearly written.

Pragmatically, Daming, the new emperor, is like an old accountant with blind eyes.

Wang Qiong finally realized keenly: Your Majesty is not afraid of anyone clamoring for money, but he is not willing to agree to other people's lions, and he also needs others to come up with a review strategy that allows others to at least have rules to follow and examples to prove .

This would be a change from the usual working methods of the Ministry of Finance.

Zhu Houcong didn't mention the renovation of the Qingning Palace here. The next topic was to start with Zhu Houzhao's incompetent and cowardly "adopted sons" who resigned from their titles. people.

This is also a piece of good governance, so the topic naturally turned to the narration of meritorious service in the Chenhao Rebellion.

"Wait for Wang Shouren to enter the capital, and then discuss meritorious service and reward." Zhu Houcong pressed the matter first, and then said, "I have succeeded to the throne, and the meritorious ministers have not yet been rewarded. This Huangzhuang Huang's property is increasing day by day. In the imperial edict, I also agreed to control it. This time, I will take some rewards from it and reward meritorious ministers."

The money Wei Bin and the others spit out became the so-called "secret treasury" and "reserve military pay", and the fields, mansions, etc. they spit out naturally became the imperial property.

At this moment, it is finally time for the Son of Heaven to show his grace to the people who "supported the establishment", "welcome the establishment", and "cong the dragon".

After Mao Cheng was escorted away and Yang Tinghe walked down the steps passed by the emperor, the court meeting was held so comfortably that the officials could not have imagined it at the beginning.

Now it's time to discuss meritorious deeds and rewards, and His Majesty's wisdom and generosity can be seen at a glance: as long as he acts faithfully, he really won't get mad.

Of course, being so strong in the front and being so gentle in the back is also considered unpredictable.

Like Mao Cheng, he received an extra three-year salary for his meritorious service.

The four cabinet ministers who have made great contributions to the establishment, each gave a hundred hectares of land, and added the title of "Three Dukes and Three Guzhong": this is already a great appeasement.

Among them, Yang Tinghe was awarded the title of Taibao among the three princes, and he was so frightened that he quickly declined.

Damn it, if you don't refuse, this is the first living civil servant Sangong since the founding of the Ming Dynasty!
These grand masters, grand tutors, and grand protectors are usually presented as posthumous gifts by dead ministers. What do you mean by Jiajing?
"Elder Ge is not only the elder of the four dynasties, but also an important minister of the two dynasties. He also has the merits of supporting him. This is the Taibao, and the elder Ge is well-deserved!"

Yang Tinghe pulled in fear: "There has never been such a case since the founding of the country, I dare not accept it!"

"It's been nine years since Zhengde became a junior teacher in seven years old, and it's enough for the exam."

"The ministers set up the towers and pavilions, barely supporting them, and I really dare not speak of merit."

Zhu Houcong had a sincere expression on his face: "Then you should be rewarded for your support, right? Elder Ge, don't refuse anymore."

Yang Tinghe shook his head firmly: "Your Majesty's moral order should be established, and it is not the merit of the minister. I am ashamed to accept the gift of a hundred hectares of land. The title of the three princes has always been a posthumous gift. Your Majesty is very kind, and I am grateful for it. I hope that your majesty will take it back. Give your heart and soul to repay the grace of God."

What a show in which the emperor is trustworthy and the ministers are loyal!
Mao Ji looked at Yang Tinghe who had almost fainted before, and then at the young emperor sitting on the throne with a troubled expression.

Oh shit!It's all drama!
The final outcome of this drama of monarchs and ministers supporting each other is: Yang Ting and Jiazuo Zhuguo.

Now, Zhu Houcong's attitude of not intending to drive Yang Tinghe away as soon as possible is also clear.

But he also left Liang Chu and Wang Qiong who Yang Tinghe and others wanted to drive away.

After disposing of Mao Cheng, he continued to appease Yang Tinghe and other civil servants: using the familiar way of discussing affairs and meritorious service.

Yang Shen felt a lot better.

As for the former ministers of Conglong Zhigong's Qiandi, they were all promoted to real officials, and everyone gave them a house in the capital.

The new Jinyiwei Commander, temporarily in charge, is Luo An.

Xie Changjie, the former left chief of the palace, made up a speech official on the spot at the recommendation of Wang Qiong: Youqian Du Yushi of a certain metropolitan procuratorate who was demoted to the people just now, is a fourth rank.

He has been promoted, and when he takes office, he will participate in the joint trial of the three divisions in many major cases such as Qian Ning and Jiang Bin.In the second half of this year, there will undoubtedly be more and more cases.What will Xie Changjie do with the status of the official censor and the former minister of Qiandi?
Another emperor, Zhou Zhao, will be welcomed back to Beijing by Cui Yuan along with Princess Xingxian soon, and the position given to him is a new official just vacated by the Ministry of Rites: the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, the third rank.

But General Zhou Zhao only received a salary, regardless of the matter, and did not prevent Yuan Zonggao from wooing anyone in the Ministry of Rites.

77 people, and has the status of emperor teacher.Although it's just that the degree of advancement is extremely exaggerated, the others have nothing to say.

That is to say, receive a favor and retire from retirement.

The other civil and military officials have also set their rewards, and they will be ordered to the world after the posthumous posthumous discussion of Emperor Zhengde is over.

Many people have felt the difference in this enthronement award: Except for those who have been promoted to real officials from the Dragon Contributors, the others basically did not receive official or Yinzi rewards, but mainly based on actual property and false titles. .

Those who can stand here, most people do not lack this property.

Therefore, from a comprehensive point of view, it seems that the elders of the cabinet have only been beaten, but the cabinet is still trusted by the emperor.

"As I said before, when I first came to the Great Treasure, I didn't know much about the officials. At this time, just because I ascended the throne, I added officials and people I didn't know well. It’s just as irresponsible for some ministers to seize their posts and question their crimes.” Zhu Houcong sighed, “Taicang warehouse, Changying warehouse, and Neicheng transportation warehouse are not rich, so I can only give such rewards.”

Of course, the ministers could only kneel down and give thanks.

Don't you think it's not enough?

"It's just that I believe that as long as the monarch and ministers are of the same mind, the treasury will definitely be enriched, and loyal ministers, virtuous ministers, and cadre ministers can all be employed in suitable positions."

Following the discussion later, it was confirmed that there will be a sutra feast on the second day of the next month, and that day will be canceled for a day to show solemnity. The emperor really looks more and more wise.

As long as you don't force him to replace the loyal court officials on a large scale now, don't force him to succeed.

He said that etiquette depends on money to maintain, but he respects the etiquette system in operation today.

Your Majesty is numb.
