Chapter 442 "The Minutes of the Capital"

Chapter 442 "The Minutes of the Capital"
Going to court is just a common thing for courtiers. No matter which dynasty can participate in going to court, it is a kind of honor and a symbol of status. In terms of the frequency of going to court, it can be regarded as whether the emperor is diligent or not. In this regard, Emperor Yuanzhuo is not really the most diligent emperor in history. He is roughly the same as the five-day dynasty, barely passing the exam. Of course, this is also because there are so many military aircrafts What a freak, if the emperor wants to understand the affairs of the court, he really doesn't need to go to the court to learn about it - as long as the minister of military affairs is not lazy, the emperor's eyes and ears cannot be hidden from the emperor's eyes and ears.

Since the establishment of the Military Aircraft Department, the biggest function of this court meeting is to bring the courtiers together to listen to the will of the Holy Majesty and discuss some trivial matters of little value. However, today's court meeting is different—” "Wan Yan Shu" is not a joke, you may lose as many heads as you want, and how many officials will be dismissed. Whether you can take this opportunity to invite a holy favor depends on how well you perform at the court meeting. The big guy is naturally holding back. With all my strength, I plan to show it off.

"Your Majesty, I have a copy of the Enlightenment." After three shouts, Qian Mingyu, the censor of Zuodu, who has always been known for his outspoken words, stood up first, holding this chapter in his arms and said: "Your Majesty, I think that the 'Book of Ten Thousand Words' The fact is that a savage villain fabricates facts to confuse people, make false comments on government affairs, and slander the Holy One. According to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, this matter should be strictly investigated, and those who committed the crime should be severely punished to make an example. As the Zuodu censor, I voluntarily pleaded Thoroughly investigate this case and restore justice to the world, please enlighten me!"

Qian Mingyu is a student of the Son of Heaven, and is also a speech officer who is responsible for inspecting officials at all levels, and the law of the Qing Dynasty is firmly attached to his words. The weight of this statement is still very high. All the officials, big and small, who do not understand the holy meaning all think that Qian Mingyu Yu's move must have been the holy will, and immediately stood up a large crowd, everyone kept asking the holy decree to investigate the case thoroughly, all of a sudden there were shouts and killings in the hall, and there was a gust of wind, which was quite a bit of a literary prison The scene before the coming.

"I understand what Qian Aiqing means." Yinzuo said lightly, waving his hand to make the courtiers who were screaming for beatings and killings retreat first, but he did not express whether he wanted to thoroughly investigate the case.

"Your Majesty, I do not agree with Master Qian's opinion. I think this matter should be delayed. Your Majesty rules the world with benevolence and morality, and educates people with rites. Although some puppies are restless in the room and bark at themselves, they are nothing but nothing. Wait for the day when the truth comes out, and investigate slowly, there will be someone who will point out the real culprit, and it is okay to apprehend and question the crime." Fan Wenhua, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, saw that Yin Zuo did not express his position and wanted to investigate the case immediately, thinking that he had a plan He stood up and offered a plan to wait for change.

"This statement is absurd!" Qian Mingyu, who was angry when he heard it, immediately stood up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Fan Shilang's statement is really a sour statement, and there is no king who hides the 'Wanyan Book' without authorization." Those who have no father's words are the great crime of treason, according to the Qing law, the nine clans should be punished, and Fan Shilang defending such evil things in court is also the same crime."

"Your Majesty Qian wants to imprison the Emperor for injustice? You don't know that justice is at ease in people's hearts, and His Majesty is benevolent. Do you want to marry the matter of Jie and Zhou to His Majesty? Your Majesty always teaches us: Don't use words to sin, has Master Qian forgotten?" Fan Wenhua retorted unceremoniously.

Yinzuo said "don't sin with words" more than once in the court hall, and he has never corrected anyone for talking about government affairs. This is also true. When Fan Wenhua said this, the ministers in the hall immediately whispered to each other. Discussed in a low voice, suddenly there was a loud buzzing in the hall.

Qian Mingyu was in a hurry, and he didn't care about the impoliteness before, pointed at Fan Wenhua and said: "This is not an ordinary case, it is an act of treason, and the edict of 'Don't sin with words' does not apply. Master Fan misinterpreted the oracle. What are your intentions?" Fan Wenhua's face turned red, and when he was about to argue, Yinzuo raised his hand and said, "That's all, let's all back down." Since Yinzuo opened his mouth, although Qian and Fan had intentions Not daring to insist on arguing again, each kowtowed and retreated.

Although Yinzuo had already made a decision in his heart, he still wanted to hold this court meeting. One of the purposes was to see the reaction of the courtiers. Although Qian and Fan fought vigorously, the difference was actually very limited, but One advocates an immediate and thorough investigation, killing all quarters, and the other advocates a delayed investigation and fewer killings. In the final analysis, it is not the fundamental solution to the problem, but it can also be seen from this that the majority advocates an immediate and thorough investigation. There are elements that vote Yinzuo likes, but according to the practice of the Qing Dynasty, it should be the case, which is not surprising.

"Fourth brother, I want to hear your opinion, how should we deal with this matter?" Yin Zuo glanced at Yun Zhen and asked lightly.

The people from Yunzhen came, but they originally planned to watch from the sidelines, but they didn't expect Yinzuo to be the first to click on him, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, thought for a while and said: "If you go back to the Holy One, I think Master Qian's words are very serious. Yes, according to the ancestral system, those who make unreasonable comments on the government should be punished by the nine clans, but there is nothing wrong with what Master Fan said, and it is not wrong to blame the first one, but not the rest. This shows the magnanimous intention of the sage, and the minister thinks that it is better to slow down the investigation."

Yun Zhen talked freely, but it was the same as not saying what he said, but Yin Zuo didn't bother to care about it. He smiled and didn't ask any more questions. He looked at Yun Xiang, nodded and said: "Old Thirteen , you are in charge of the cabinet, just bring me a charter."

Ever since the "Wan Yan Shu" was published, the old thirteen has a lot of gray hair. As the prime minister of the cabinet, he naturally knows the crux of this matter, and he has also visited Wu Sidao in private , It's a pity that I hit a soft nail and didn't get any ideas. I've been thinking about it for a long time these days, and I didn't even sleep well. Finally, he thought of a good idea. Hearing Yinzuo's question at this time, it's not surprising Don't panic, stood up and said: "Reporting to the Holy Majesty, I think this matter is important, but there are precedents to follow. According to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, it should be thoroughly investigated, and I agree that it should be investigated, but I think this fact is caused by villains. , and the public does not understand the Holy Will, the Holy One can issue a thorough investigation to find out the real culprit and severely punish the chief culprit, and at the same time issue a clear edict to the world to distinguish right from wrong and appease the hearts of the people. "

Hehe, it's not bad that the old thirteen can think of this point, it seems that he put his heart into it, much better than the old four who dealt with it blindly.Yin Zuo had no real intention to solicit the opinions of the courtiers, but just wanted to test the hearts of the courtiers. As for the gang of military ministers, Yin Zuo had already understood their thoughts, so there was no need to ask more questions. As soon as Shisan finished speaking, Yin Zuo just nodded with a smile, motioning for the old Shisan to return to his original position, looked solemnly, looked at the eldest son Hongli standing at the forefront of the princes and ministers, and said: "Hongli, regarding this matter, What do you think, come and tell me."

Hongli kowtowed his head, and said in a calm and unhurried manner: "Qi Huang Ama, I thought that what the adults said made sense, but I didn't get to the point. I thought that this matter was menacing and looked scary, but in fact Otherwise, although villains are involved, it is generally caused by ignorance of the court's actions. No matter whether the investigation is postponed or thoroughly investigated, it is only a measure to cure the symptoms, not the root cause. Kindness to the hearts of the people, rather than forcibly suppressing them, the ancients said: water can carry a boat or overturn it. This is the reason. I think it is okay to investigate this matter, and it is okay not to investigate it. It is better not to investigate it. There are four strategies for my son Decide on this matter: firstly, to announce to the world, to order the government offices in various places to set up more announcements, and to send people to publicize the publicity, to make the right and wrong to the public. Publish books to clarify the true meaning. Third, order the provinces, prefectures, and counties to spread the holy meaning widely to win the hearts of scholars. Fourth, strengthen the functions of the Inspectorate, cooperate closely with the Ministry of Officials, and Strengthen monitoring, include the implementation of the above-mentioned three measures in the performance appraisal content, and strengthen the crackdown on corrupt officials to make people feel better. I hope the emperor will make a clear judgment on the foolishness of this minister." Hongli finished his long speech , the whole hall was in an uproar, and everyone looked sideways. No one expected that Hongli could say such insightful words, and there was a loud discussion for a while.

Uh huh, what this kid said is pretty good. This method is roughly similar to Fang Linggao's. It's hard for him to say this, especially to strengthen the functions of the Inspectorate. One way is a good way, but now is not the time to rectify the political system and clean up the government. At least we have to wait until the military system reform and financial reform are completed before we can consider this matter.Yinzuo was very satisfied with Hongli's four strategies in his heart, but he didn't bring it to his face, he just nodded lightly and said: "I know. Hongyang, what do you think?"

As soon as Yin Zuo said this, the whole hall immediately fell silent—everyone knew that Hongli and Hongyang had already started fighting, and Hongli was in front of him, so everyone wanted to hear what Hongyang could do. High regards.

Hongyang has always been calm, stepped out of the queue without haste, knelt down on the main hall, and said calmly: "I want to report to Emperor Ama, I think that my elder brother's analysis is correct, and water can carry a boat or capsize it. Dian Erchen has no objection. Er Chen thinks that the four strategies proposed by the elder brother are all the best ones, but it consumes a lot of manpower and material resources. I think these four strategies are not perfect yet." Hongyang stopped at this point, watching Yin Zuo not speak.
