Even in the temple, there are only a few truly smart people. Except for Emperor Deqing, Zhou Shangjing, Shen Changmao, Zhao Junchen and others, few people can immediately understand what Emperor Deqing's promise today means! What impact will it have on the court situation in the future!
With the tacit approval of Shen Changmao and Zhou Shangjing, Zhao Junchen helped Zhang Jizhi fight for the position of Yanzhou magistrate, and the morning court finally came to an end. Read
For the vast majority of officials, this morning's morning meeting was rather anticlimactic.
According to their original conjecture, because of the assassination of Zhao Junchen and the attack on Xichang, Emperor Deqing would definitely be furious, and he would definitely use thunderous means to kill monkeys and intimidate all officials! Not only Yin Xue of Shuntian Prefecture Your Majesty, Zhang Bochong, the Minister of Punishment, and others will be unlucky, and many ministers who oppose the imperial government's rectification of business and taxation will also be innocently implicated, and will be killed by Emperor Deqing as a warning to others!
However, the final result surprised all the officials!
Although Xue Gui was dismissed from his official position, Zhang Bochong was only fined some salary. The most important thing is that after Emperor Deqing appeased Zhao Junchen, he also found reasons to punish several officials who opposed the imperial government's rectification of commercial taxes, such as Guan Wenqing, the censor of the right capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Ma Shangde, the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and others were all scolded by Emperor Deqing for reasons. In addition, several officials were ordered to suspend their duties by Emperor Deqing, but Emperor Deqing's actions The action was not big, the scope of involvement was far less extensive than imagined, the number of unlucky officials was far less than imagined, and the punishment was not severe.
Apart from this, Emperor Deqing actually made no other actions. The imagined scene of the earth turning upside down, the temple shaking, and a large number of officials encountering unreasonable disasters did not appear at all. It was as if this matter had come to an end!
This situation was completely different from what the officials had imagined, so many officials secretly speculated that Zhao Junchen had lost his holy family, so that Emperor Deqing reacted coldly after Zhao Junchen was assassinated. Some words of comfort were offered, but almost no actual action was taken!
However, these people did not know that in today's morning meeting, Zhao Junchen got far more than they expected! Emperor Deqing's few "comforting words" were by no means that simple! For For Zhao Junchen, the meaning of these "comforting words" is far more important than the misfortune of several political opponents!
In fact, Emperor Deqing felt that he had given too much to Zhao Junchen, so he did not take any major measures to rectify the imperial court and help Zhao Junchen rectify his political opponents. He was afraid that Zhao Junchen would get more benefits and become more difficult to restrain. !
The more violent the violence, the calmer it is at the beginning.
Speaking of which, after Emperor Deqing returned to Beijing, Zhao Junchen was immediately tasked with rectifying business taxes.
However, several days have passed since then, but Zhao Junchen has not made any move, as if he has completely forgotten about the business tax rectification!
Regarding this, all the officials also had their own speculations. Most of them believed that Zhao Junchen finally realized the complexity of the commercial tax matter and found that once he rectified the commercial tax, it would inevitably affect the whole body and offend countless people. The group with vested interests has encountered countless obstructions and retaliations. It is inevitable that they are afraid, so they dare not take any action.
The officials are best at "judging others by themselves", and they all think this guess is reliable, so they have been secretly laughing at Zhao Junchen these days, thinking that Zhao Junchen was boasting at the beginning and accepted the business tax rectification job without knowing the high and high of the sky.
After he saw the situation clearly, he was too scared to move. It was really ridiculous!
Many officials even thought of watching the joke, waiting for Zhao Junchen to make a fool of himself next!
However, the officials did not know that rectifying commercial taxes has always been Zhao Junchen's established strategy and a key step in Zhao Junchen's future development. No matter how difficult it is, Zhao Junchen will never give up easily, but Zhao Junchen never gives up.
To fight an uncertain battle, Zhao Junchen was not well prepared before, so naturally he would not make any moves.
But after today's morning meeting, Zhao Junchen completely dragged Emperor Deqing into the water and received Emperor Deqing's promise. He was finally fully prepared and confident of winning!
Therefore, starting from today, Zhao Junchen will really take action to rectify the business tax!
And the scene that the officials are about to see is by no means Zhao Junchen making a fool of himself and making a joke, but the situation in the court has been turned upside down, and Zhao Junchen has soared into the sky!
However, after the morning court ended, Zhao Junchen ignored the various looks from the officials, and instead led the "Zhao Party" to leave the Forbidden City quickly.
Arriving outside the Meridian Gate, Zhao Junchen finally stopped, turned around and announced to a group of "Zhao Party" officials: "Everyone, the various tasks that I have assigned to you in the past few days will be completed after you return to your respective yamen.
It can be implemented immediately! Before this, all the officials looked down upon us, thinking that our business tax rectification was just a slogan, but from today on, we are going to surprise everyone in the government and the public! This morning, Your Majesty's
You have all heard those words. If the business tax rectification can be successful, then I and you can achieve great achievements and leave your name in history. Even if you encounter revenge and obstruction, there will naturally be your Majesty and me.
Official responsibility! So, you don’t have to worry about anything, just go ahead and do it boldly, it’s time to let the world see our means and strength!"
When speaking, Zhao Junchen's voice was low and his tone was very calm, but after everyone in the "Zhao Party" heard Zhao Junchen's words, they all became energetic, and many people even showed impatient looks!
People in the "Zhao Party" may not pay too much attention to immortal honors and famous names in history! However, everyone in the "Zhao Party" knows how huge benefits they can obtain in the process of rectifying business taxes!
Therefore, as Zhao Junchen's words fell, everyone in the "Zhao Party" bowed in response and said in unison: "I will obey Master Zhao's order! I will definitely go all out!"
Zhao Junchen smiled softly and said: "As long as you follow the instructions, the final result will definitely not disappoint you!"
After saying that, Zhao Junchen said goodbye to everyone in the "Zhao Party" and walked toward his sedan alone.
Next, both Zhao Junchen and the officials of the "Zhao Party" have a lot of things to be busy with, so Zhao Junchen is not willing to waste time by talking nonsense!
The things that need to be arranged have already been arranged, and all that remains is to implement them step by step!
However, Zhao Junchen said goodbye to the "Zhao Party" people, and after sitting in his sedan chair, he suddenly asked Xu Qingyan who was standing aside: "Have everything been arranged for tonight?"
Xu Qingyan nodded and said: "Everything is arranged!"
Zhao Junchen nodded, and then murmured to himself: "After so long of planning and spending so much effort, it's finally time to start!"
