Chapter 578 What's wrong with me being a rascal?!
Chapter 578 I am a scoundrel, what's wrong?!
Getting up again in the early morning is an extremely luxurious thing for Zhu Yunyou. You can stay in bed for a few days a year. After all, this is a diligent emperor, so naturally it means you need to get up early.
Zhu Yunyou also knew very well that this morning court might have a little ups and might not be waiting to report some political affairs. For many people, they are now trying to be a straight minister and Wei Zheng.
When the British emperor did what he shouldn't do, the ministers naturally could not ignore it. They needed to do their duty as ministers.
As before, when Zhu Yunyou got up, all the civil and military officials were already waiting at the Meridian Gate and entered the court step by step. However, this morning court was more formal, not because they had to give advice, but because they were originally the court.
After three whip sounded, Zhu Yunyou also appeared after all the civil and military officials entered the hall, and naturally sat on the dragon throne and looked down at the civil and military officials in the hall.
It is still necessary to follow the previous procedures, such as receiving foreign envoys, officials leaving Beijing, etc., including the Governor's Office of the Five Army, which also needs to report. It seems that it is not different from the past, but many people are waiting at this time.
Finally, the moment that many people are looking forward to has finally arrived, and now we can report the "political affairs".
Lian Zining was ready. As the leader of the censor, he should stand up at this time. This is his duty.
But some people are even more anxious, such as Chen Di, the Minister of Rites. "Is it a matter of answering your Majesty? Is it a matter of obeying the right way? Therefore, those who know their destiny do not stand under the rock wall. Those who die with all their ways are the right way are the right way; those who die with shackles are not the right way."
Zhu Yunyou couldn't help frowning immediately. This is to quote the scriptures, and it seems that many people are ready.
Chen Di continued to talk endlessly and said, "The Book of Rites says: Respect for the people is to value etiquette, and respect for etiquette is the foundation of the country. The "Ting Tong" says: Correct the hearts of people to establish the foundation of the country, and live the lives of the people to liven up the country. How can the crown prince of the prince be easily out of the palace?"
Zhu Yunyou spoke at this time and asked directly, "Oh? Why do you say this?"
Chen Di became even more serious and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that during the Lantern Festival, Your Majesty led His Highness to the palace to enjoy the lanterns. Although he wanted to share the joy with the people, Your Majesty should put the country first and not take risks with his own life."
Zhu Yunyou was surprised and asked strangely, "Oh? Why did you say this? I have been in the palace these days. Could it be that someone outside is cheating on me in the name of me?"
Chang Mao immediately lowered his head, and many Wu Xun couldn't help laughing. His Majesty seemed to be not planning to admit this matter at all.
Chen Di was choked and a little embarrassed and angry, "Your Majesty!"
Zhu Yunyou interrupted directly at this time, not giving Chen Di the opportunity to continue playing, "My dear, I am in the palace, is there any rumors outside? It seems that the East Factory and Jinyiwei have to investigate the matter."
Lian Zining also stood up at this time and said, "It is not a false statement to your Majesty. Some people were fortunate to see the beauty of heaven outside the palace, and even good poems from all ages appeared in the world and were written by Your Majesty!"
Zhu Yunyou was immediately happy and refused to admit it. "There is still this? Then it seems that some people look very similar to me outside. But I think it's a rumor. Did all the dear friends in the hall meet me outside the palace? Or did someone think that they were far-fetched and mistakenly thought they saw me?"
When the emperor started to be shameless, he refused to admit his conscience when the emperor was beaten to death, and it seemed that others really had no choice.
At this time, Zhu Yunyou would even change the topic and completely reverse the direction of some things.
Zhu Yunyou had a serious expression, as if he was a little unhappy, "Are my officials who are keeping people staring at the palace gate all day long, or trying every means to find out what's happening in the palace city?"
Chen Di and Lian Zining were stunned and immediately knelt down in fear and fear, "I don't dare!"
Such things can be big or small, and if you become serious about such things, it is obviously a very taboo thing.
In fact, everyone understands the truth. Many civil and military officials want to know some of the situations in the imperial city. They may not be thinking about conspiracies, controlling more power or usurping the throne, or so on, just to be able to climb up better.
But I have to admit that in the eyes of the emperor, such things are very taboo. They have been the same throughout the dynasties. If the ministers are too interested in the matters in the imperial city, they will basically not have a good ending.
Zhu Yunyou looked expressionless and just said, "I will ask someone to investigate some things. You, do your duty well. I said, I am in the palace, that is in the palace!"
This can be considered a complete blockade of some people's opinions. Although there may be some people with a strong head who want to say something, some people still want to become straight ministers like Wei Zheng.
But they don’t seem to have any other way now, because the British Emperor did not recognize some things at all, so the ministers had no other way.
After all, the current British emperors have great power, and the emperors of the Ming Dynasty have always held power. The current imperial power is supreme. It is not even exaggerated to say that there is almost no restriction on imperial power. After all, Emperor Hongwu is very domineering, and the prime minister system was completely ended in the hands of Emperor Hongwu.
A powerful minister like Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao could never even think about it in the Ming Dynasty. Huo Guang, who could deposed the emperor, seemed to be absolutely unthinkable in the Ming Dynasty.
When the imperial power is not restricted, many ministers really have no other way. Even if they know some things well, as long as the emperor refuses to recognize them, they don’t seem to have no other way.
What they might be able to do is naturally to continue to harass the emperor in the next memorial. As for what choice the emperor will make in the end, these ministers naturally have no confidence in these things.
The Lantern Festival has just passed, and many ministers have had some good moods. The Spring Festival is completely over. We have to devote ourselves to our work, go further, or think about showing some of our ambitions, etc.
But now, it’s better that the Emperor of the British exhortations directly gave him a warning. It seems that the power structure of the Ming Dynasty has not changed at all.
Imperial power is still supreme, and this is also an unquestionable thing. It is a long way to go to want more power from the sword in the hands of the emperor.
It can even be said that if these civil officials want to gain more power, their pragmatic idea is not to fight for power from the emperor and limit the imperial power, but to slightly weaken the Wuxun Group, which has always been in their heads.
Unfortunately, for many civil officials, they just think about it now. They have no choice but to fight for more.
Zhu Yunyou refused to admit some things, even many people may know something. But at this time, they refused to admit it, and naturally there would be no good idea for others.
This is not a rare confusion. It is simply that the imperial power is supreme. Others can only think of some ways to "disgusting" Zhu Yunyou, and they cannot actually have some influence on the British Emperor.
This morning looked a little dull. Perhaps it was the rogue of the British Emperor who made many people feel frustrated.
But even if they were upset, they had no other way, so they would continue to do their own business steadily. Many of the emperor's decisions should not be too much thought of interfering with them. This is not just a matter of government affairs, but even the emperor's life.
The emperor of the Ming Dynasty was not a puppet for his subjects. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty seemed to be able to ignore his opinions on his subjects now. The task of the subject was to do what the emperor had assigned.
Chang Mao also felt relieved. He didn't need to do anything now, because the emperor had resolved some things so easily, and there was no need for him, the hob, to stir up the court into a muddy water.
Others may be disheartened, but Chang Mao didn't care, and he was even so proud and proud.
If the emperor had no power in his hands, he would obviously not look so confident. This is just a side proof of the emperor's arbitrary actions.
Some things were easily resolved by Zhu Yunyou. Although they were a little bit rogue, it was enough that they were effective. Zhu Yunyou didn't care about the details. He was essentially an absolute pragmatist.
Let’s continue to discuss some political affairs. The new year has begun, and there are still many things to be handled. Zhu Yunyou’s ambitions continue. He is not a fantasy. What he needs is to realize the beautiful blueprints he has drawn one by one. This is what he wants to do well.
The morning court ended smoothly, and Zhu Yunyou was generally satisfied. The ministers looked in good condition. This was ready to continue to work hard to do their duty.
Zhu Yunyou is naturally very happy to support such a good phenomenon, which is what he hopes to see. Even if he thinks he is diligent and wise, he cannot do everything well by himself.
After the morning court, Zhu Yunyou called Chang Mao and Li Jinglong to Wuying Palace. Naturally, he still had some things that needed to be explained, and some things were imminent.
For example, the change of Yulin orphans to Yulin Guards actually made decisions since the end of last year and were also in an orderly manner. But this is obviously not enough, because although it is the first month of the year, Yulin Guards also need to prepare for the start.
On the side of Goryeo, although there was almost no major war throughout the winter, the Ming Dynasty's heavenly army seemed to be more cautious and did not launch a large-scale attack in the bitter and cold climate. They are now just defending the defense line and must not lose the cities and land that have been captured.
Goryeo is naturally a headache. Although things like seeking peace are mentioned occasionally, the Ming Dynasty did not seem to have such an intention, and there was no intention to talk about peace with Li Chenggui and Li Fangyuan and his son.
Since we are about to start preparing to be the king of Goryeo, we should not be able to do it in one battle, so we should proceed in an orderly manner and we must not give up halfway, and there is no way to stop for the so-called false reputation. That is definitely not Zhu Yunyou's character.
Listening to Li Jinglong's report, Zhu Yunyou was in a good mood. "It seems that the Yulin Guard has been integrated better. This time, my cousin must be prepared. This battle to destroy the country will definitely be a great minister."
Li Jinglong naturally agrees with Zhu Yunye's statement, but in fact this is also a consensus among many people.
Although Goryeo seems not big enough, this land has indeed been continued by the regime for thousands of years and has been passed down. It is not easy to completely conquer it.
Li Jinglong also hurriedly said at this time, "I have been collecting military information. In this war, many outstanding nobles stood out."
Zhu Yunyou was naturally satisfied with Li Jinglong's answer, "That's naturally a good thing. The nobles should pay attention to it. But don't let the hearts of other soldiers be disappointed. They are also making contributions to the country."
Li Jinglong naturally understood these truths. Of course, the interests of the Wuxun Group need to be paid attention to. This is an important tool for the emperor to control military power, and it is also an important weight to compete with the civil servant group. Naturally, we cannot see the decline of the Wuxun Group. This is also a need for continuous support from the British emperor.
In addition to these martial arts, they need to be paid attention to and supported, but they are all licking blood on the battlefield. Many soldiers of humble origins can also change their destiny by relying on their military merits. Naturally, these people cannot be ignored. They are the foundation of the strong military strength of the Ming Dynasty.
Looking at Chang Mao, Zhu Yunyou asked, "Uncle, is the preparation of food and grass safe?"
Chang Mao nodded repeatedly and said with great affirmation, "Your Majesty can rest assured that the food and grass preparations have been completed, and the Tianjin Weihai Ship is also ready. It can be transported to Goryeo just after it is melted into ice."
This is not a winter material. These are food, grass and weapons prepared for the next spring and summer decisive battle. The Ming Dynasty obviously did not intend to continue to consume it in Goryeo and needed to be resolved as soon as possible.
It seems that many things are being carried out in an orderly manner, which naturally makes Zhu Yunyou more satisfied and happy.
As long as these things go on in an orderly manner, it naturally means that many things are under control.
This also gave Zhu Yunyou more confidence. Perhaps he really needs to confirm some things now. He doesn't need to worry too much about the war, so he needs to consider the governance after the war and arrange it.
In addition to the need for a special passage to control the three guards of Busan, Tsushima Island, and remote control of Japan, Zhu Yunyou also needs to consider enfeoffing at least two princes in Goryeo, which is also to better give the three Jurchens who are not disciplined to see some colors.
These things are all major events, and Zhu Yunlai cannot be careless.
