508 Governing the World Together (2 in 1)
When Yang Hongze said this, all the civil and military officials present looked at each other, as if they were a little unbelievable.
Everyone knows that he was trained by Hu Yi, the Minister of Rites, and was elected as a junior in the cabinet. Even if he did not care about the affection of teachers, students and disciples, he could not rebel against such major decisions by just knowing the grace of his accomplices.
As a result, Yang Hongze chose to support Chen Yichen's vassal reform. Is this son born with a rebellious heart?
Not to mention the officials present, Hu Yi, who had always been happy and angry, also looked at Yang Hongze sideways, with a complex expression on his face.
When he chose to support Yang Hongze, he valued that this man came from a poor family without a foundation, and would be relatively easy to control in the future. In addition, Yang Hongze has a straightforward personality and is a typical traditional Neo-Confucianist. He has no choice but tolerated the slightest sand in his eyes. He is destined to stand against the "rebellious" people like Chen Yichen.
However, after long-term training and contact, Hu Yi found that the advantages of Yang Hongze he was interested in also became shortcomings. If he stubbornly abides by etiquette, it would be difficult for him to do some dirty things in the officialdom. In addition, the scholar's enthusiasm is too strong, and the first consideration is not the interests of individuals or groups, but more of the morality in his heart.
Facts proved that I really didn't have the cleverness of knowing people. The first time I misread Chen Yichen, I thought I was a slick person, but I could do my best at critical moments. The second time I misread Yang Hongze, I thought I could control it, but I found that it was a waste in the end.
Compared to everyone's surprise, Chen Yichen and Yang Hongze looked at each other, but a faint smile appeared on the corner of their mouths.
In fact, as early as when he was the president of the examination, Chen Yichen had already realized that the other party had his own bottom line. This stubborn original intention surpassed the division brought by the camp, and Yang Hongze would insist on what he thought was right.
Whether it is more treacherous than a treacherous minister like a corrupt scholar or as stubborn as a corrupt scholar, at least in terms of taking the world as his responsibility, there is no big difference as long as he is a scholar.
Yang Hongze cannot see the benefits of suppressing the vassal states. This is why he voted to agree!
Zhu Qiyu, the Emperor Jingtai, on the dragon throne, looked at the final court discussion of the nine ministers of the Pavilion, and seemed to be out of mind. Theoretically, restricting the financial power of the clan is a matter of greater benefits than disadvantages for the emperor.
But Zhu Qiyu didn't know why, but he always felt that some things had signs of a major change. Chen Yichen's reform of the vassal state was equivalent to planting a seed!
"Since the nine ministers of the cabinet ministers agreed to vote, Jin Qing of the Ministry of Revenue will temporarily postpone the payment of the royal family's salary and first make up for the military achievements of the soldiers of the expedition."
"As for how the vassal will reform in the future, specific regulations need to be formulated. I am a little tired today. Let's retreat to the court first."
Chen Yichen's initial idea was to ask for a price everywhere and pay the money on the spot. He could get the soldiers to get the military silver as quickly as possible, even if he achieved the established goal. But now, unlike the past, Chen Yichen did not expect that more than half of the important ministers of the Grand Priests of the Pavilion would support his vassal reforms.
Then Chen Yichen cannot give up, he must start the price!
"Your Majesty, I am willing to edit the "Villagers Ordinance" and fix the reform charter for royal relatives in the form of a law."
】
The memorial to the "On the Disadvantage of the Clan and the Vast" is just a suggestion. If you want to implement the law, you must form legal provisions, so that it can be considered a real reform. During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, the "On the Vast Regulations" were issued to restrict it, but the symptoms and not the root cause were treated.
The reason is that if you want to cut off the land of Zonglu, the premise is that at least you have to give the royal family a way out. The high-level princes and princes are at best, but the lower-level royal family really relies on Zonglu to live, and they must give them the power and freedom to make a living on their own.
Chen Yichen knew very well that if another official had written the "Regional Regulations", he would never dare to offend the emperor and delegate power to the royal family. Only by doing this can he completely eradicate the disadvantages brought about by the entire royal family system of the Ming Dynasty.
If the privileged class of the vassal state can be solved smoothly and with such a model project, Chen Yichen will take action on his own next step. After the expansion of the literati class of Ming Dynasty, it was also a cancer that was attached to the country!
"This matter needs to be discussed. Chen Qing must understand the truth that too much is too little."
Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu agreed to the vote of the Grand Nine Ministers of the Pavilion, which means that as the emperor, he made concessions, could deduct the salary of the royal family and implement some advice strategies in the memorial. But if he wanted to reform the original version according to the "The Discussion on the Disadvantage of the Clan", it would be equivalent to completely revising the ancestral system. The Zhu clans in the world would probably have to poke the emperor's backbone.
When the trouble reaches this point, Chen Yichen should not be more greedy.
"Your Majesty, since you have decided to reform, there are only two options for success or failure, and it is difficult to achieve success or failure!"
Facing Chen Yichen's still unwilling to give in, the chest of Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu rose and fell violently. He stood up again and stared at the young face below and said, "Chen Yichen, I know that you have a family, country and the world, but have you ever considered my situation?"
"Don't force me!"
At this moment, the pressure of Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu had reached its limit. In the eyes of the world, he had only one identity, that is, the emperor. But putting aside this identity, Zhu Qiyu was a young man one year younger than Chen Yichen, and had never received any imperial education since he was a child.
It is actually not bad for him to do this.
Chen Yichen looked at Zhu Qiyu's complicated eyes, and in an instant he didn't know what to say. What he saw was not the emperor's power, but the grievances, pressure, confusion, and even a hint of prayer from his peers.
"I will write the "Regulations on the Religion of the Vocational Law" by myself and submit it to His Majesty for the emperor's reading at that time."
At this point, Chen Yichen finally took a step back and did not ask the emperor to agree to write the "Regulations on the Vocational Regulations" in the form of a law. He only wrote it in his private capacity and submitted it to Zhu Qiyu Yulan, giving the other party room to modify and bargain.
"Get out."
Hundreds of thousands of taels of military merits have been out of control until now. Thinking of the pressure from the royal family and vassal kings in the future, Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu felt exhausted and could only wave his hand to signal the ministers to leave first.
When the ministers in Wenhua Palace saw the emperor's appearance, they did not dare to say anything more, and bowed and said, "I will leave." Lan
All officials stepped out of the Wenhua Hall in groups of three or three, and each face was filled with a solemn expression. The storm of the deposed queen Yi Chu, the reactions of the clan princes, and even the emperor's physical condition were filled with unpredictable consequences.
The muddy waters in the capital did not become clear as the emperor appeared, but instead became more and more turbid.
After Chen Yichen walked out of the hall, he stood in the corridor and looked at the red walls and yellow tiles of the Forbidden City, and looked like he was worried. However, at this moment, Duke Zhongguo Shi Heng stood beside him, patting his shoulder with enthusiasm and said, "Yangbei, you always acted decisively in the Liaodong battlefield, without any timidity as a weak scholar."
"Why are the officials getting bigger and bigger now, and their courage is getting smaller and smaller?"
Faced with Shi Heng's teasing, Chen Yichen could only smile bitterly and shake his head. It would be great if the officialdom could be as happy as the battlefield.
"Seeing your worried look, why don't I go and have two drinks when I go back to the wedding banquet you agreed to have almost two months, and we haven't had it yet."
After saying that, Shi Heng hugged Chen Yichen's shoulder and pulled him out of the palace.
However, Chen Yichen was not in the mood to drink at this moment. The "On the Discipline of the Discipline of the Discipline" successfully obtained military merits for the soldiers, which was only the first step for his return to the court to reform. In the period of power change when the Queen Yi Chu was abolished, there were more things to plan and plan.
This world is not a family and a family. Only by governing it together can the fate of changing dynasties, prospering the suffering of the people, and destroying the suffering of the people!
"Next time, Duke Zhongguo, I want to have a good drink in the future, and there are opportunities."
Chen Yichen politely declined.
"Yangbei, the matter of abolishing the queen has been a foregone conclusion. We are not good at talking about it as a military general. But there are many suspense about Yi Chu. Don't you want to talk about it?"
When Shi Heng said this, a mysterious smile appeared on his face.
Empress Wang was kind-hearted and took out her private money to restrain the fallen soldiers and the common people's bones, which won the favor of a group of soldiers. However, the identity of the honor and military generals was sensitive, just like Li Da and others returned to Beijing from Liaodong in chaos. Chen Yichen, as a civil servant, had to avoid suspicion and not to welcome their childhood friends.
When it comes to the matter in the harem, the generals of the Xun Qiwu could only express their attitude with silent protests. This is why almost all civil officials in the Wenhua Palace submitted memorials, but the generals of the Xun Qiwuwu stood beside him and said nothing.
Not speaking does not mean that there is no idea in my heart. The next step for the deposed queen is Yi Chu, which everyone in the court knows. But the problem is that at least in Chen Yichen's opinion, Yi Chu's affairs are the same as the deposed queen, and there is no suspense ending.
As long as Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu was in power for one day, the crown prince would definitely be replaced by his son Zhu Jianji, and even the Yi Chu date was near. Shi Heng said he wanted to talk about suspense, but what did he mean? He had something in his words.
"Since Duke Zhongguo invited him warmly, it is better to obey your orders than to be respectful to me."
"Haha, please."
Chung Kung-kuo Shi Hyung stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation. He spoke to a smart person with a relaxed and pleasant feeling.
Just as Chen Yichen and Shi Heng walked out of the palace, Hu Yi, Minister of Rites and Wang Zhi, Minister of Personnel, walked side by side, but Hu Yi's face turned pale, and it was obvious that he was not very happy.
"Otsukazuka, what's going on with the eldest son of the emperor? Do you know who made the move behind him?"
As a veteran of the Six Dynasties, Hu Yi's connections were exaggerated. It was not easy to hide things from him in the palace, especially the eldest son of the emperor, Zhu Jianji, who was seriously ill, and it was even more spread to him early.
The civil servant group followed the etiquette and law, and was unwilling to let the eldest son of the emperor Zhu Jianji take office. Hu Yi, the Minister of Rites, was the backbone of the opponent. After all, Hu Yi was destined to be the position of Hu Yi. As the Minister of Rites, he could not take the lead in violating the inheritance system of the eldest son, otherwise it would shake the foundation of power.
However, no matter how opposed it is, it is absolutely impossible for an old fox like Hu Yi to attack the eldest son. But now that something happened to Zhu Jianji, the biggest suspect is himself. This is why, in the matter of deposing the queen, even if the censors outside the palace were angry and opposing, Hu Yi and Wang Zhi and other senior officials chose to calm down the situation.
It was because Hu Yi had realized that the emperor had put suspicion on him and he did not dare to continue to anger the emperor in the matter of abolishing the queen, so he obeyed and compromised.
"What do you mean by Da Zong Bo? How could I know about the eldest son?"
Wang Zhi, the Minister of Personnel, was weak. He was still a little low for a long time by Wang Zhen, but being able to take the position of the Heavenly Official and sit firmly represents a kind of ability.
He immediately heard the other party's implicit meaning and hurriedly ignored the relationship. The severity of the crime that endangers the prince was enough to be executed. He must not be careless.
Seeing Wang Zhi's fierce reaction, Hu Yi realized that his words were ambiguity, so he quickly comforted him: "Otatsukaku misunderstood. How could this official say it has something to do with you? It's just that the eldest son is seriously ill. If there is something wrong with him, His Majesty will definitely take his anger on us."
"Do you think anyone wants to kill someone with a knife?"
Hu Yi became more and more restless. He always felt that someone had knitted a huge conspiracy and was waiting for him to jump in.
But the problem is that after thinking about it, he used normal logic to calculate it. The most suspicious thing is that he is waiting for others. Who has the ability and courage to murder the eldest son of the emperor Zhu Jianji?
"Who can make a profit if we accused of, Chen Xun or Chen Yichen?"
According to the principle that whoever makes the most profit will be the most suspicious, the first goal is naturally to Chen Xun, the chief minister of the cabinet.
Chen Xun originally had insufficient prestige and qualifications as the chief minister of the cabinet. He leaned on the thigh of Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu. Now he ranked third in the civil service rankings, second only to Wang Zhi and Hu Yi.
It is obvious that if he wants to be the best minister and become the real "Yuanfu", he must step on the two six ministers of the six ministers.
"Neither of them should be."
Hu Yi shook his head. Chen Xun seemed to be the most likely, but in fact, as long as Yi Chu was successfully completed, according to his current importance in the emperor's mind, he could almost get the title of Prince's Master and become the teacher that the crown prince relied the most.
Would Chen Xun be so stupid to take huge risks to give up long-term interests for the sake of temporary power?
As for Chen Yichen, this son does have this ability and courage, but it is precisely because this son was too bold in his past, which led to even the emperor being full of fear of him, and using various checks and balances to cut off his path to supporting other crown princes, and he could only become a "lone minister".
If Chen Xun does something like this, it can be described as stupid, and Chen Yichen does it, it would be a normal IQ, and Wang Zhi thought it was too simple.
Just as the two important officials of the dynasty were thinking about who was behind the scenes, an official who walked out of the Wenhua Palace stared at their backs with a sinister look. He had been in a high position for too long. The former minister of the assistant is now just a timid old man.
