The old emperor wanted to build the Jingming Garden on Yuquan Mountain for more than a day.
However, troops have been deployed in the northwest, and the Central Plains has suffered a major flood that has not been seen in a century. The household savings are stretched thin and it is difficult to survive.
The main reason why Yuzhu was promoted to the throne of the internal minister was that Yuzhu was good at financial management and did not have many party members.
These days, the position is given by the old emperor, but the authority has to be established by Yuzhu himself.
Yuzhu is too young. If he wants to establish authority and cultivate party members, it will take at least ten years.
The old emperor is 68 years old, and he knows better than anyone else that he may not survive the next ten years.
However, the old emperor was quite confident. He had a way to prevent Yuzhu from becoming Obei.
"You guessed it right, Sun Zhaji from the Ministry of Revenue, turned over and over, just said he had no money." The old emperor felt angry whenever he thought of Sun Zhaji.
Sun Zhaji, under the banner of Xianghong in Manchuria, was transferred to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs only because of Song Zhu's strong recommendation.
At this time, the Han minister of the Ministry of Revenue was Zhao Shenqiao.
Zhao Shenqiao is very famous.
In the Ji Chou Examination in the 48th year of Kangxi's reign, Zhao Shenqiao's son Zhao Xiong was awarded the top prize.
Dai Mingshi, who originally thought he would be the number one winner, was like picking something out of a bag, but he ended up in second place.
As a result, the streets and alleys of the capital were filled with stickers attacking Zhao Shenqiao for engaging in favoritism and corruption.
Zhao Shenqiao thought it was Dai Mingshi who did it, and he always held a grudge.
In the fiftieth year of Kangxi's reign, Zhao Shenqiao finally caught the flaw and impeached Dai Mingshi, the editor of the Hanlin Academy, for "relying on his talents and debauchery". There were many "rebellious" words in his "Nanshan Collection" and "Ma Yilu".
This public case was widely implicated, and many great scholars from the south of the Yangtze River were involved, which indirectly helped Yuzhu become known as the "Cao Thief".
Well, Liu Taiqing, the most beautiful woman in the south of the Yangtze River, and Qian Yinglan, the great-granddaughter of the traitor Qian Qianyi, were successively snatched away by Yuzhu.
Of course, of these two beauties, one is now Yuzhu's son and his mother, and the other has Yuzhu's seed in his belly.
Since the old emperor was short of money and the Ministry of Revenue said there was no money, then don't blame the Yuzhu for causing trouble.
"Khan Ama, I think that Zhao, the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs, is a disobedient person, a group of people but not a party, so he can be sent to the south of the Yangtze River to recover the land tax owed over the years." Yuzhu brewed his emotions for a while, and then said
Zhao Shenqiao stepped up.
The old emperor's eyes flashed slightly, and he looked at Yuzhu thoughtfully, trying to understand his thoughts.
Because of the incident of killing Dai Mingshi, Zhao Shenqiao's reputation among the scholars in the south of the Yangtze River was extremely bad.
As we all know, the great Confucians in Jiangnan are all big landowners, rich people, and big businessmen. They have a lot of money.
According to Yuzhu's unstated intention, if Zhao Shenqiao is sent to Jiangnan, he can squeeze back millions of taels of silver at least.
Most of the so-called Jiangnan great Confucianists these days are established and established pretentious criminals.
On the surface, they angrily criticize the stinking of copper. In fact, in private, they use white gloves and do business unscrupulously.
"Zhao Songwu's popularity is not good, and he is too rigid in his work, which is inappropriate." The old emperor tactfully denied Zhao Shenqiao, but he was full of praise for Yang Sen, the left minister of the Ministry of Punishments, "Yang, you have a clear mind and are competent in handling cases."
The evidence and clauses are also very clear and can be understood at a glance.”
Yuzhu was secretly amused. The old emperor's reaction was completely within his expectation.
After so many years of dealing with each other, although the old emperor has been praised as a holy king, in fact, his temper has been revealed by Yuzhu.
Just now, Yuzhu deliberately sent Zhao Shenqiao to Jiangnan to become a villain, just to wait for the old emperor to deny it.
Because the old emperor was very famous, and Zhao Shenqiao was also a famous upright official.
It was almost impossible for the old emperor to agree to push Zhao Shenqiao out to be a money-grabbing villain.
Yang Sen is different, he is a confidant who was promoted by Yuzhu.
More importantly, compared with Zhao Shenqiao's stink in Jiangnan, "Cao Thief" Yuzhu is even more stink all over the world.
As the saying goes, a person's name is like the shadow of a tree.
If Yang Sen is sent to the south of the Yangtze River to "beat the fat", the great Confucians in the south of the Yangtze River will definitely be in danger and be in constant fear all day long.
To be honest, the old emperor felt that letting Yang Sen go to Jiangnan under the banner of Yuzhu to seize the land was a way of knowing people and doing their jobs well.
He raised his head and summoned Yuzhu alone. It only took half an hour to discuss several major military and state affairs. The old emperor was very satisfied.
"I mean, Zhu'er, do you still play tricks like taking off your shirt when you're not on duty?" The old emperor teased Yu Zhu with a playful tone.
Yuzhu lowered his head, smiled, and whispered: "Huihan Ama, there are many famous and prosperous families in the south of the Yangtze River. It's time for Chen'er's poker friends to change their ways a long time ago."
These words were so shameless that the old emperor choked on his saliva and coughed.
"Cough, cough..." Wang Chaoqing quickly supported the old emperor and raised his hand to pat his back.
If Yuzhu hadn't been the foreman, walking around the study room and patting the old emperor on the back, it wouldn't have been Wang Chaoqing's turn to take action.
After all, when the emperor summons the prime minister, no matter how relaxed the atmosphere is, what is discussed is military and national affairs.
"I don't allow you to mess around, do you understand?" After the old emperor calmed down, he sternly scolded Yuzhu.
Yuzhu replied with understanding: "Please rest assured Khan Ama, I will never act recklessly."
Wang Chaoqing was completely dumbfounded. Good guy, Yu Xiangguo is so awesome!
Others may not understand the mystery, but Wang Chaoqing knows it well.
Long Live Lord's attitude seems to be extremely resolute. In fact, there is something in his words that gives Yuzhu the green light.
In the final analysis, it is just one sentence, I can give you authority, but you must have no less handles.
In this authoritarian era, the old emperor had to hold in his hands the handle that could drive the jade pillar to hell at any time in order to sleep peacefully.
Not to mention the distant past, Xiao He was forced to take bribes, and Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, gently let him go.
The first time Yuzhu participated in the shouting, he was alone for an hour. The rise of the Holy Family was simply outrageous.
After the news spread, the doors of Lao Tong's Duke's Mansion were almost trampled to pieces by dignitaries.
What's the point of taking sides these days?
Sensitive people are good at observing the wind and stand in line in advance.
Sluggish people, if they wait until the situation changes drastically and then want to join the team, hey, it will be too late!
Less than ten days before the duel, the decree came down.
Yang Sen was ordered to leave Beijing and go to Guangdong to investigate the Guangdong Customs fraud case.
Under the system of prefectures and counties, frontier officials such as governors and governors combine administrative, judicial and military power into one body, and are properly called kings of thousands of miles.
Under normal circumstances, if you want to take down the official protective umbrella of the Jiangnan Confucians, you must resort to confusing means of pointing east and attacking in the west.
Take Yang Sen, for example. He obviously wanted to go to Jiangnan to scrape land, but he lied about going to Guangdong.
The main advantage of doing this is that it prevents Jiangnan officialdom from taking precautions in advance, making it easier to catch them all in one fell swoop.
The old emperor wanted money, Yuzhu wanted to ruin his reputation as much as possible, and Yang Sen could be promoted based on his merits as long as he did his job well and came back.
As the saying goes, kill three eagles with one stone.
