At the beginning of the civil castle, the Ming God of War was a little panicked

Everything has been arranged, and everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

However, along with the east wind, there were several academicians from the cabinet, as well as Kuang Ye, Minister of Rites.

Cao Nai, the first assistant, opened the door and said straight to the point: "Your Majesty, it is a major event to go to Mobei, and it needs to be decided by the court. How can you make an order?"

The so-called Zhongzhi originates from the Tang Dynasty, referring to the edict issued directly by the inner court without being under the Zhongshu sect.

Generally speaking, imperial edicts are formal edicts issued by the imperial court, which need to be jointly approved by the emperor and the imperial court before they can take effect.

During the Tang and Song Dynasties, the largest authority was the Zhongshu Province. In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang abolished the Zhongshu Province and took over the jobs of the emperor and the prime minister. In the Yongle Dynasty, Zhu Di couldn’t do it, and he didn’t dare to abolish it easily. The ancestral system, so secretly changed the concept and delegated part of the work to the cabinet.

During the Renxuan period, the power of the cabinet Sanyang increased day by day, and gradually developed into a new Zhongshu province.

Therefore, the imperial edicts of the Ming Dynasty were drawn up by the cabinet and then printed by the supervisor of ceremonies before they came into effect.

If the emperor wants to issue an imperial decree, it must be approved by the cabinet before it can be printed by the supervisor of rituals. This process is called drafting.

The general process is that several members of the cabinet vote, who is in favor and who is against, and finally depends on the result to see if it is passed.

If you pass it successfully, you can continue with the process.

However, there is also a possibility that the majority of those who voted against it.

If this happens, the cabinet will seal the imperial decree and draft results and return them to the emperor, which is called return.

In other words, the emperor didn't make the decree just because he wanted to, it also depends on whether the cabinet passed it.

Every imperial decree must be filed by the imperial court and must be signed by a cabinet scholar to have legal effect.

Such a system is to restrict the imperial power, prevent the abuse of the imperial power, and at the same time prevent the courtiers from being in power and causing disasters to the court.

However, there is a special imperial decree, which is the central decree.

This kind of imperial decree was issued directly by the emperor, and the cabinet had no draft records and no archives. In theory, it could not be counted.

If the court officials don't buy the emperor's account, they can even return the imperial decree. How did you send it, and how can I send it back to you.

Therefore, the cabinet firmly opposed the emperor's decree. Unless it was the decree of pardoning relatives and imposing grace, otherwise, the decree must not be issued.

As an emperor, he naturally does not want to have conflicts with his officials. The imperial decree represents the supreme imperial power, and it should not be trifled with.
Even if you kill someone afterwards, you won't get back your face.

Just as the cabinet and the Ministry of Rites were discussing matters related to Shengjia's visit to Mobei, they suddenly heard that the emperor issued a decree agreeing to go on tour, and felt as uncomfortable as eating a fly.

Cao Nai didn't even say any polite words, and asked his teacher for an explanation when he came up.

Zhu Qizhen turned his head slowly, looked at Wynn beside him, and said coldly, "Are you talking too much?"

"Ah... I... I don't have any slaves..."

Wynn's face was pale with fright, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.

At this time, he hissed in his heart, although I sent the imperial decree, but I did not leak the news!
And...why do you say again?

Zhu Qizhen ignored him, and said to Cao Nai: "I am not going to fight a war when I go out to patrol Mobei. You and your family have discussed and discussed, but there is no result. I am impatient, so I directly issued an order."

Cao Nai explained: "The emperor's tour of Mobei is a major event. First, the Ministry of Rites needs to send officials to go out and notify the local officials to prepare for the reception. At the same time, the imperial court has to prepare the guard of honor for the trip..."

Zhu Qizhen listened patiently to his ramblings for a long time, and then said: "Actually... there is no need to be so troublesome, I just need to bring some guards."

"The emperor's words are wrong. How can it be child's play for the holy driver to go on tour?"

Cao Nai didn't give Zhu Qizhen a chance to explain, and directly refused.

Zhang Yi then said: "Your Majesty, please think twice!"

Kuang Ye came up and said, "If the emperor insists on going on tour, the old minister is willing to take the lead!"

Zhu Qizhen twitched his lips and said, "I'm going to patrol, and it's not a war. What are you fighting for?"

Kuang Ye immediately said: "It is necessary to investigate the place before inspection. In case someone plots to do something wrong, something unexpected happens to the emperor, and it will hurt the country's foundation!"

"Can't you just hope for me?"

Zhu Qizhen said so, but he thought in his heart that there are indeed people who are planning to do something wrong, and I want to give them a chance.

The expression on Kuang Ye's face was a bit awkward, and he hurriedly explained: "The old minister was quick to speak, and his words were often abrupt, I hope the emperor will not take offense."

Cao Nai also said: "What Kuang Shangshu said is not unreasonable. Such an important matter must not be hasty. I also ask the emperor to think twice before making a decision. Temporarily withdraw the imperial edict and wait for the ministers to discuss it before making any plans."

Zhu Qizhen showed a look of embarrassment, and said: "This imperial decree has been sent out, and others have accepted it. Now that it is retracted, I am afraid that there is a suspicion that the order will be changed..."

Kuang Ye leaned over again and said, "Your Majesty, this is called mending a prison after a dead sheep, how can it be changed overnight?"

Hearing this, Zhu Qizhen's face was very tangled, and his brows were tightly frowned.

Wynn observed the words and expressions, and hurried forward and said: "What did Kuang Shangshu say? The emperor didn't make a mistake. What kind of prison did you make up?"

Kuang Ye thought for a while, then bowed his head and said, "The old minister is being abrupt again..."

Zhu Qizhen waved his hand and said: "I have already understood the purpose of your family's coming here today, so I will do as you said, Wynn, go and take back the imperial decree, and wait for the cabinet and the Ministry of Rites to discuss it before making any plans." !"

"Yes!"

Wynn agreed, got up and walked out of the hall.

"Hey!"

Seeing this, Zhu Qizhen hurriedly stopped him: "You wait for a while!"

Wynn stood still, bowed and said, "What else does the emperor want?"

Zhu Qizhen looked at Cao Nai and said, "Does the cabinet have any objections?"

Cao Nai saluted and said, "Your majesty is wise, and the ministers have no objection."

Zhu Qizhen looked at Kuang Ye again: "Where's the Ministry of Rites?"

Kuang Ye hurriedly said: "The old minister is fine, I'll go back and prepare."

Zhu Qizhen nodded, and said: "That Qixike is still waiting in the capital, everyone, speed up the agenda!"

"Yes!"

Cao Nai and others bowed and retired, and returned to Wenyuan Pavilion to draw up a ticket.

Seeing this, Huai En hurriedly said: "Your servant, go and take back the imperial decree."

Zhu Qizhen's expression suddenly changed, and he said, "Can I take back the imperial decree I sent?"

"what?"

Wynn is completely dumbfounded. What on earth do you want?

Didn't you just say you want to take it back? Did I hear you wrong?

Zhu Qizhen said: "Now you go to Beizhen Prefecture and call Yuan Bin over!"

"Yes!"

Wynn walked out in a daze, still wondering in his heart, could it be that his memory made a mistake...

"return!"

"Ah... yes!"

Wynn turned around with a dull look.

Zhu Qizhen asked: "If someone asks, what would you say?"

Wynn scratched his head and asked, "what should I say, slave?"
