Chapter 196: Civil servants' prestige begins with Yu Qian!
Taiyuan Prefecture.
Lu Yuan and Liu Ji walked out of the Chengdu Government Envoy Si Yamen, both with solemn expressions on their faces.
The drought this year is really terrible.
Even the Chief Secretary's Yamen must save water. Almost all the officials of the Chengxuan Chief Secretary went to the local area to direct the disaster relief. The Shaanxi Chengxuan Chief Minister Si Youshang who stayed behind asked people to pour tea when entertaining the two people.
Only half the cup was poured, and the accuser said that the water source was exhausted.
Even the Chief Secretary's Yamen is so cautious in using water. Imagine how serious the drought is in Shanxi.
Not to mention the thousands of miles of red land, basically all the spring seedlings have withered.
Liu Ji coughed and said, "Shilang Lu, look at how we divide the work. I believe that the disaster is serious, so we should divide our troops into two groups to inspect the disaster situation in various places, and quickly report to the court to allocate relief food funds. I asked for orders to go to Pingyang Mansion.
Luliang and Jinzhong, which are under the jurisdiction of Taiyuan Prefecture, please ask Shilang Lu to take more care."
Pingyang Prefecture is relatively far away and has jurisdiction over Linfen, Fenxi, Hongdong, Yueyang and other places.
On the surface, this was to please Lu Yuan, and Liu Ji went on a long journey.
Actually...
Does Lu Yuan know about Liu Ji's thoughts?
He said calmly, "Liu Xiuzhuan is worried about the country. I admire him very much. Then I will follow your advice and we will go our separate ways."
Liu Ji smiled and said, "Then I'll say goodbye to you."
He bowed and took the people immediately to Pingyang Mansion.
After Lu Yuan watched Liu Ji's carriage go away, he turned around and got on the carriage and said to the coachman: "Go to the Qianhu Station of Jinyi Guards in Taiyuan Prefecture."
Review the disaster?
It's not necessary.
With Jin Yiwei here, we can't clearly know what the disaster will be.
Lu Yuan knew what Liu Ji was up to, and also knew the plans of the group of people behind Liu Ji. Lu Yuan was not anxious about this at all, and even hoped that they would start quickly.
After all, disaster relief is a big deal.
After they are launched, they can quickly increase disaster relief efforts.
The good news is that the drought is currently under control.
The porridge factory run by the local government can ensure that no one will starve to death for the time being, but if Liu Ji and the others delay for ten days and a half, and they are unable to take action, people may starve to death.
What His Royal Highness the Prince means... political opponents must be dealt with, but the victims must not starve to death.
Lu Yuan deeply agreed.
It's not that Lu Yuan didn't have other thoughts, he did.
Of course, I also hope that my daughter Lu Huan will become the Crown Princess, but that is for the future.
The most important thing now is to keep the prince's position as the crown prince of the East Palace.
The top priority is to go to the Jinyi Guards Qianhu Station in Shanxi to find out the situation in Shanxi and see how many people in the Shanxi Provincial Envoy and Shanxi Dusi are connected with the Tang family's relatives and some of the seven ministers of the court.
His Royal Highness is not just dealing with relatives of the Tang family.
We also need to eradicate a group of conservative civil servant forces.
If not, how could there be an overwhelming support for the replacement of reserves in the court - there is a group of people who are actually cooperating with everyone to act, and the Ming Dynasty, which has been run by His Majesty for more than ten years, does not have any loyal ministers?
People like Wang Wen will support His Majesty and the Crown Prince when they get older.
So young officials will not choose to take sides for the sake of official career?
Especially officials from poor families.
All fools know that in such a big matter of right and wrong, who should be chosen is in the interests of the official career. Moreover, don't forget that Yu Qian is now the emperor's master. How many people support Yu Qian in both the government and the public?
…
…
Wenhua Hall.
Yu Qian stroked his beard and looked at the prince who was immersed in reading, feeling very pleased.
Yu Qian became an official in Taizong's reign.
I met Taizong.
The current prince is actually very similar to Taizong when he was young. He was aggressive, ruthless, but also smart. The difference is that His Highness the prince's temperament is more contradictory.
What's even more different is that His Highness the Crown Prince shows signs of debauchery.
According to what Dai Yi accidentally said today, the Crown Princess has been unwell these days, and His Highness the Crown Prince actually asked Liu Qi, Zhou Qing, and Li Qin to sleep with her last night.
Even at such a young age, he is not afraid of losing his temper.
Seeing that it was getting late, Yu Qian wanted to go to the Ministry of Justice earlier and asked Zhu Jianji: "How is the progress of the disaster relief in Shanxi?"
Zhu Jianji put down the book and said with a smile: "Lü Yuan and Liu Ji probably just arrived in Shanxi. Now I'm worried that Liu Ji and the Shanxi Chengxuan Administrative Envoys are delaying the process, which will inflict hardship on the victims."
Yu Qian snorted, "The rumors about the exchange of reserves have become a bit fierce. This matter is a little strange to me. Not to mention the people at the Ministry of War, why did even Chen Xun and Shang Ren choose to support the exchange of reserves?"
Liu Jue, Minister of the Ministry of War, and Tang Sheng, the right minister, support the exchange of reserves and can accept it.
However, many of the doctors, ministers, and chiefs under the Ministry of War were promoted by Yu Qian. Now that Yu Qian is the emperor's advisor, these people should not support the replacement of the reserve.
Moreover, Chen Xun and Shang Ren were the emperor's confidants, and they should not support the exchange of reserves.
What kind of emperor and ministers are there in one dynasty?
It's all nonsense.
If His Majesty ascends the throne and the Crown Prince ascends the throne, will it affect the future status of Shang Ren and Chen Xun?
There are only a few known princelings at present. Can they threaten Dao Shang Ren and Chen Xun?
Pure nonsense.
Zhu Jianji smiled and said: "Yu Shaobao doesn't know what's going on in his heart. Do you have to tell him alone?"
Yu Qian rarely showed a smile, "So, His Majesty and His Highness have already planned it. It's ironic that Tang's relative was promoted by His Majesty, but now he has to personally go out and destroy the Tang's relative."
Zhu Jianji thought for a while and said, "Yu Shaobao, there is actually something I have been holding in my heart for a long time. Now that I have mentioned it, I will just say it. Yu Shaobao, who is the Great Wall of Ming Dynasty, must have made lasting contributions.
However, after the Tumubao Incident, Yu Shaobao took charge of the Ministry of War, organized regiments and camps, and separated the imperial power from the military power. It seemed that he was thinking about the country and the country, and was worried that there would be another Baozong among the future emperors of the Ming Dynasty. Such a situation could indeed be avoided.
, but what follows is that the civil servant group continues to grow. In just a dozen years, the civil servant group of the Ming Dynasty has been able to strengthen the imperial power and even pose a direct threat. If this status quo is not changed, I will always
If the Zhu family produces a few more wise kings and wants to curb the civil servant group, will it be easy for the consequences of my great emperor being easily dissolved in water?"
Yu Qian was stunned.
He really didn't think so far, and he didn't think that the officials of the Ming Dynasty would dare to use such methods against the emperor... because he was not such a person and looked at other scholars too idealistically.
Zhu Jianji continued: "It is precisely because of this situation that the emperor cannot sit still and wait for death. He must contain the group and regain military power. Therefore, the father has to reuse the Tang family's relatives to check and balance the civil servant group. But he did not expect... Tang Guifei gave birth to a lucky prince, so Tang
The relatives of the family have ambitions. From this point of view, although Yu Shaobao's original intention was to fight for the great tomorrow, your operations inadvertently contributed to this situation. In addition, Gu actually believes that the King of Fortune Zhu Jianjin is also one of the sources."
Yu Qian suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
The truth... seems to be this truth?
Was it really that I was wrong?
Yu Qian was silent.
He also heard a terrifying voice-over: His Royal Highness has murderous intentions against Prince Fu!
