Before history is messed up by the otaku Zhu Shou, we should go back to the palace where the morning dynasty is taking place.
Upon hearing the emperor's decree, Liang Chu's first reaction was to be happy: I have been promoted!
He turned out to be the right minister of the Ministry of Personnel, a proper third-rank official, and was given the nickname "Xiaosan of the Ministry of Personnel", ranking after the minister and the left assistant minister. This was also a trick used by Liu Jin and Boss Liu to disgust Master Liang.
Because Liang Chu first served as the Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Personnel, and later was promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. He was demoted by Boss Liu and directly became the Junior Third Officer of the Ministry of Personnel.
The imperial envoy Si Zuo was admitted to the second rank of Cong, which was one level lower than the Minister of Civil Affairs, but higher than Zuo Shilang, and he was the first person in the locality. It was better than being in the central government and suffering from the two sides of the eunuch party and the civil service group.
.
Similarly, the rank of Qianshi, the rear military governor of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, is higher, it is the second rank, and he can take charge of the garrison.
In other words, these two official positions, one is the top administrative leader, and the other is the big boss of military camp management. If they are both placed in Yizhou, they will be super bosses who can manage the army and the people, with greater authority than the governor.
.
So Liang Chu's second reaction came, wondering: Where is Yizhou?
Let the ministers be depressed. With Zhu Shou's political IQ of less than 30 points, he would never have thought of solving his doubts immediately, because he issued the second decree: "Liu Yu, the censor of Zuodu of the Duchayuan, and the governor of Yizhou
, East China Sea, South China Sea and Ryukyu affairs."
At this moment, the big bosses present began to laugh. The chief assistant Li Dongyang was already preparing to arrange his men to restore the emperor's "chaotic life".
If Liang Chu's appointment just now was still a random act, then Liu Yu's appointment was just a random act.
Even Liu Yu, a bad guy, fully agrees with this point. Originally, he was the boss of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and a second-rank Zuodu censor, so there was no problem at all in serving as a local governor.
But everyone knows that being a governor requires real skills. Liu Yu is a genius at cheating, bragging, and flattering, but getting him to do something serious is even harder than reaching the sky.
Let's take a look at what happened to the governor of the Ming Dynasty.
Governor-General is an official position temporarily granted by the imperial court to a minister. It has the nature of military inspection, such as the Governor-General of Xuanfu, the Governor-General of Datong, the Governor-General of the Three Borders of Shaanxi, etc. Its inspection scope may cover several provinces, or it may be limited to several prefectures within a province.
By.
The governor and the governor have the same functions, and they both have jurisdiction over local civil affairs, justice and the military. The only difference is their official title (official level). The governor and the governor are not subordinate to each other, but they supervise each other functionally.
Similarly, the governor-general and the chief envoy are two systems and are not subordinate to each other.
The Ming Dynasty stipulated that governors, admirals, governors, managers, prime ministers, governors, inspectors, governors and other personnel serving outside the country could have the title of capital censor, deputy capital censor, or capital censor.
Liu Yu himself is the boss of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The words "admiral military affairs" are not added, which means that he is there to supervise Liang Chu. He can have a hand in everything and make money, but military power and
Executive power is firmly out of his reach.
If people like Liu Yu are allowed to wander around, not to mention the invisible Yizhou, even the existing two capitals and thirteen provinces will have to be destroyed.
Zhu Shou didn't wait for everyone to come back to their senses to refute, and issued the third edict: "Luo Xiang, Supervisor of Ceremonies, is promoted to Chairman of the Board of Directors of Royal East China Sea Company."
Hearing this sentence, Li Dongyang, who was thinking about how to return the emperor's imperial edict, choked on his own saliva. Amidst his coughing, Luo Xiang could only hear Luo Xiang weakly ask: "Your Majesty, what is a company? Chairman of the Board of Directors
What is it again?"
This idiot!
Liu Jin Boss Liu secretly cursed in his heart. His little brother was obedient, but his IQ was worrisome and he couldn't calculate numbers over ten because he didn't have that many fingers...
His only strength is his ruthlessness.
Of course, for Boss Liu, he has never considered bragging and flattering to be a strength. You must know that no one in the Ming Dynasty who dared to flatter Boss Liu has yet been born.
According to Boss Liu's idea, wait for the emperor to finish his stupidity, and then everyone can do whatever they are supposed to do. Li Dongyang will naturally do the work of returning the imperial edict.
The first task of these eunuchs is to play with the emperor, not to be silly with him.
Luo Xiang's question just gave Zhu Shou an opportunity to show off: "The company is to help me make money. You just treat it as a household department. Donghai Company is to let you work in Donghai, Yizhou, and Nanhai.
To make money in Ryukyu and other places, in these places, Donghai Company is my household department. You can make money for me as much as you have. If anyone dares to stand in the way, he is disobeying my will and being treasonous;
As for the board of directors, he is another chief eunuch, and the chairman is the chief eunuch, and you are the first chief eunuch of the board of directors of Donghai Company."
Got promoted! Got rich!
After hearing the emperor's words, Luo Xiang's eyes were filled with stars. No matter where Yizhou was, it was the East China Sea or the South China Sea. Eunuch Luo could sum up one or two hundred ways to make money with his eyes closed.
If the emperor takes the big head and he takes the small head, he can become rich enough to rival the country no matter what.
Besides, with the emperor as his backing, who dares to stop him? Is it true that Eunuch Luo’s knife was soaked in vinegar?
As for Ryukyu, Eunuch Luo selectively ignored it. Because it was a country that Emperor Taizu did not conquer. Although Eunuch Luo was ruthless, he was not courageous enough to dare to invade the border. If one day the emperor did not
I was so happy that what I chopped off was Eunuch Luo’s head.
Eunuch Luo already has no head. It would not be fun if he lost another head.
Envy, jealousy, hate!
This was the mentality of all the eunuch bosses present, including Liu Jin, the former boss of Eunuch Luo. They all hated how such a good thing did not happen to them.
There is no need to analyze it, everyone’s unanimous mentality is: If you ruin Eunuch Luo’s good deeds, if I can’t get it, you can’t get it either!
So a certain reader in later generations told everyone not to offend the eunuch.
As for Li Dongyang and other civil servants, they were so angry that they almost laughed out loud. It didn't matter that the emperor liked to play, or that he played blindly. They were all in the palace anyway. At most, they would harm the common people in the capital, and there would be no big storm.
This is good, they are all ready to harm the East China Sea area, not to mention the invisible Yizhou, that is, Ryukyu, the East China Sea and the South China Sea. The situation is very complicated. Although money is easy to make on the sea, the forces are intertwined, and the Japanese country is in civil strife.
, there is war and chaos everywhere, which may lead to fire and damage to the southeastern provinces.
The Japanese pirates that swept the southeast during the Jiajing Dynasty had not yet formed a force at this time, but their signs were already there. Li Dongyang was afraid of avoiding them, so how could he dare to contaminate them?
Even Jiao Fang, a twenty-five-year-old boy, could only smile bitterly and look at Liu Jin without saying a word.
"Your Majesty, since we have already agreed, how about moving to the Leopard Room? I have found a few good archers, all of whom have unique skills..." Liu Jin had no choice but to stand up and prepare to lead the little emperor away. As for the decrees just now,
, just follow the process and let Li Dongyang solve it.
Although he and Li Dongyang were at odds with each other, they both had political wisdom and knew what should be done and what should not be done.
Without him having to say it explicitly, the little emperor's whims and wishes were simply obliterated, and he couldn't even leave the palace.
"That's right. I've also found some strong men. Why don't you kill a tiger for fun?" Zhang Yong said in a rough voice.
When eunuchs and civil servant groups join forces, not to mention the emperor, even the Jade Emperor will have to be caught blind...
The Yizhou trio who had just been promoted were immediately discouraged. For example, Luo Xiang looked at the emperor reluctantly, but he did not dare to disobey the big bosses present and stayed there without saying anything.
"Xuan, Zhang Xiong, the Supervisor of Ceremonies, hangs down the curtain stick to his father, and the stick is responsible for three." Zhu Shou did not have the slightest idea of getting up. He sat on the dragon chair and looked at the two confidant eunuchs with a half-smile.
Upon hearing this, Liu Jin turned pale and did not dare to speak again. Zhang Yong also smiled coquettishly and quickly looked away.
On the other hand, Li Dongyang's eyes lit up, as if he had found a treasure, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Among the other big guys, some had the same expressions as Li Dongyang, some had the same expressions as Zhang Yong, only Luo Xiang was smiling, as if he was holding a mountain of gold in his arms.
The people present were either big shots in the court or elites in the inner palace, so they naturally understood what the emperor's decree meant.
After all, Zhang Xiong was also the emperor's confidant eunuch, but his seniority was very young and he was incomparable to the Eight Tigers. In terms of seniority in the palace, he could be regarded as the disciple and grandson of the Eight Tigers.
Some time ago, he resented his biological father for being unloving and making him a eunuch, so he refused to see his father. You must know that the Ming Dynasty ruled the country with filial piety, and unfilial piety was a crime punishable by beheading.
So the brothers in the palace advised him: Don't bear a bad reputation. This boy listened, but he actually started a "beating his father with a stick" and watched through the curtain. After the beating, another one happened.
The scene of hugging and crying with my biological father was criticized by the civil service group: "This girl is so ignored!"
Zhu Shou naturally knew about this. He hit Zhang Xiong, which was actually a warning to Liu Jin: Don't fool me.
why?
Because Zhang Xiong was originally related to Zhang Yong, and they even recognized distant relatives. As a result, in the first year of Zhengde, after Boss Liu succeeded in taking office, Zhang Xiong quickly defected to Liu Jin, and from then on, the two men began to play infernal affairs and play both sides.
However, this matter was not revealed until Liu Jin was killed. In fact, Zhang Xiong was sent to Liu Jin by Zhang Yong. A red heart is always towards Admiral Zhang.
But the emperor and Liu Jin didn't know about this situation at the moment. Zhu Shou only learned from Zhu Houzhao's memory that Zhang Yong had beaten Zhang Xiong severely some time ago, so Zhang Xiong turned to Liu Jin and betrayed Zhang Yong. The evidence is detailed
, if Zhang Yong hadn't beaten Liu Jin again and Zhu Houzhao had made peace in the middle, this matter would really have been a fight to the death.
Zhu Shou found an excuse to beat Zhang Xiong. In addition to venting his anger for Zhang Yong, he also warned Liu Jin. He only hit three sticks and saved everyone's face. Anyway, the Jinyi guards who went to execute were all subordinates of the father-in-law.
.As long as the emperor does not give orders, no one will seriously fight.
When Zhang Yong heard the name Zhang Xiong, he had to pretend to be unhappy, and he also had to express with dignity that he didn't want to pursue the case. In fact, his heart was bleeding: Brother Xiong, I'm sorry for you!
All the people present were very familiar with these doorways, and they could naturally understand the emperor's meaning.
Unlike Emperor Jianwen, whose psychological and political IQ were both worrisome, and unlike Emperor Jiajing, a political genius, Zhu Houzhao's intelligence was recorded in history books, and no one doubted his psychological IQ.
But Zhu Houzhao's crazy love for fun has also entered the history books. Everyone knows that this young man with an extremely smart ordinary IQ has a political IQ that is infinitely close to zero.
It's just that the playful emperor suddenly became proficient in balance. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
The ministers and eunuchs all fell silent at the same time.
