Chapter 130: One Day in the Life of the Standing Emperor

Chapter 130 A Day in the Life of the Standing Emperor

After bidding farewell to Li Yan, walking out of the dark corner, Shi Shiran returned home as if nothing was wrong. All the ministers in front of the mansion came together to see the ceremony.

Standing on the steps, Lu Mou said with a smile: "If you give gifts and ask for favors through the back door, please come back. You are begging me because there is the emperor above you and the elders of the cabinet in the middle. I can't make the decision. We can't do it. We all can't do it." Don’t be embarrassed. But if you have state affairs, please come in together.”

After being given such a straightforward explanation, most of the officials resigned and left.

The remaining dozen or so officials followed in.

Sitting in the lobby, a river official handed over the official document: "Repairing the Haihe River and solving the annual flooding of the Haihe River have been included in the budget by Mr. Qian Tonghe. We, the river officials, conducted urgent surveys, formulated plans and Budget.

We, the governor of the river, submitted the plan and budget to the cabinet. The second assistant said that this matter will have to wait until you come back and leave it to your discretion.

No, when you come back, the governor will send his subordinates to come over quickly and ask if the management of Haihe River can be carried out and when the money for the management will be approved. Once approved, construction will start. Otherwise, if the project is halfway through, work will be suspended due to busy farming. A flood in the summer can ruin all your efforts in the blink of an eye. "

"Didn't you find Mr. Hube Huang?"

"Looking for it, Mr. Huang said that the project budget is too large and needs the prince's approval and signature. Therefore, Wei Chen came to the prince for instructions."

Lu Mou took the official document and said, "I will accept this. I will go to the palace tomorrow to ask for your instructions and your approval."

Seeing the disappointed expression of the official who had not achieved his goal, Lu Mou seemed to say casually: "There are thousands of people in the family, but one person is in charge. The emperor is our real head. For this small matter, I will run errands to share the worries of my father." Yes, but on major matters, the emperor still needs the final word. But don’t worry, I will carefully check your report tonight, and then give my father a pertinent opinion. Please give me a reply as soon as possible. "

After hearing this explanation, the official resigned with satisfaction.

Just after the river affairs were dealt with, another Zuo Zheng from the Senglu Department came forward to ask for instructions: "Several Taoist priests came from Shandong and asked for instructions to build a Taoist temple in the capital and promote Taoism. I don't know if the prince will allow it."

Now the organization has been streamlined, and the original Second Department of Religious Monks and Taoism and the Department of Jiaofang have been merged into one.

Holding this official document, Lu Mou said: "It is a good thing to promote Taoism. But I have to send Jin Yiwei to check their background, make sure they are not pretending to be from the White Lotus Sect, and then I will give you an approval."

White Lotus Religion, a religion that originated in the Tang Dynasty, was originally part of Buddhism and taught people to be good. But as it developed, it went astray.

They preached secretly, and their main focus was rebellion.

Corrupt officials were rampant, so they wanted to rebel; the emperor was fatuous, so they wanted to rebel; those who supported the rebels became emperors, and then rebelled against the emperor they supported.

The Tang Dynasty rebelled against the Tang Dynasty, the Song Dynasty rebelled against the Song Dynasty, and the Yuan Dynasty rebelled even more. Then tomorrow, I, the one who supports me, will do the opposite.

In the Qing Dynasty, it was even more counter-intuitive, and they continued to do so until death.

It's already the 1960s, and it's still the opposite. In the end, the country became prosperous and prosperous, and the foundation for rebellion disappeared. Only after sending a large number of troops to replace them and launching a powerful ideological and educational function at the same time did they disappear.

The entire White Lotus Sect seems to be born for rebellion.

In particular, Shandong Province was the hardest hit area. There were rebellions in Shandong in the fourth, sixth, and fourth years of Tianqi, the fourth, eighth, and eleventh years of Chongzhen.

If these Taoist priests don't find out the basics, it would be quite dangerous if they are the White Lotus Sect and spread their religion in the capital.

After hearing the prince's safe arrangement, Zuo Zheng left the official document and retreated.

The eunuch in charge of the royal horse supervisor also ran over and handed over the official document: "King Yong is getting older and it is time to leave the palace and live separately. According to the new regulations, he must stay in the capital. For this reason, it is time to build a mansion for King Yong in advance. This is our plan, please read it."

Originally, there were two yamen in charge of the royal family, the Clan Mansion that restrained the royal family, and Shi Si, the head of the royal palace who was responsible for services. Now, Lu Mou's new policy has been introduced, and the bloated palace chief Shi Si has been abolished, and his functions have been transferred to the Royal Horse Supervisor of the Inner Palace.

"You are in the palace and can see the emperor all the time. If you don't invite the emperor, what are you doing here? My father has to decide this matter."

But he didn't forcefully push people away: "Now that you are here, my suggestion is not to build a new mansion. Now that King Fu has died, his mansion in Beijing will be vacant. It will be repaired by then. But it is not necessary. It's too simple. According to regulations, the internal funds from the treasury should be paid from there. If the money is insufficient, I will pay it when the time comes. I can't let my brother feel wronged."

Everyone expressed their admiration for King Ding's brothers and sisters.

The Minister of War stood up and said: "Wu Sangui requested to build flintlock weapons suitable for horses for his Guan Ning army. This is a memorial."

Lu Mou frowned deliberately: "This is a formal memorial. Why did you send it to me here? Tomorrow, I will hand it directly to the emperor in Jiying Palace."

This official was a little confused. Aren't you the standing emperor? If I don't send you here, where can I send you?

"But I know about this. I will ask the emperor to issue an order to the Ministry of Industry to see if it can be developed."

The waiter then resigned and left.

Officials from the Metropolitan Procuratorate reported: "The eunuch guarding Dongchang in Liangxiang exceeded his authority and interfered in politics."

Lu Mou's eyes widened: "I'm in charge of the East Factory. I immediately ordered the Jin Yiwei to capture this bastard. If the investigation proves it, I will break his legs directly."

The inspector censor stood up and said: "I impeach you——"

This is too outrageous: "Stop it, I don't care who you impeach, and I won't listen. According to the regulations, you write a note and submit it to the imperial study."

Lin Linzongzong has been dealt with, the ministers have retreated, and it is already the beginning of the lanterns.

I had no choice but to fill my stomach with chopsticks, while flipping through official documents and marking a few sentences with a pen from time to time. He also used the brush as chopsticks several times and stuck it into his mouth, making the palace maids and eunuchs around him cover their mouths and snicker.

At this time, although the key to the palace had been issued, the east and west corner doors of the palace were still open. A eunuch hurriedly entered the palace through the corner door.

Chongzhen was lying on the rocking chair in the Qianqing Palace, listening to the report in a low voice by his trusted eunuch Li An. When he heard what Lu Mou said to the officials, "There are thousands of people in a family, but one person is in charge. The emperor is our real head. This is a small matter." , I can run errands and take care of my father’s worries, but on major matters, I still need the emperor’s final say. ' When he said this, he nodded with satisfaction, and then motioned for Li An to go down.

Chongzhen was the only one left in the Qianqing Palace, lying in the rocking chair left by his brother, silently thinking about his thoughts. Unknowingly, I seemed to have fallen asleep.

But my sleep was not stable. I would twist my body uneasily from time to time, trying to make myself sleep more comfortable. Unfortunately, there is no bed as comfortable as a rocking chair.

Queen Zhou came over and said, "Your Majesty, go to bed and rest."

Chongzhen opened his eyes, stood up obediently, and murmured as he walked: "At this time, I don't know if San'er is asleep."

Zhou Hou responded distressedly: "He has to bear such a big burden at such a young age. It's hard for him."

Chongzhen nodded: "Yes, it's all because of my incompetence."

 I will recommend it tomorrow, and I beg brothers who have recommendation votes to support it. First, thank you.
