Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 78 Strike
Behind Wang Dehua, there were three servants, all holding a large stack of memorials in their hands.

Although Emperor Chongzhen did not punish Wang Dehua, he still let him take charge of the eunuch in front of the ceremonial supervisor, and he was dealing with civil officials, but it didn't mean that he didn't hate him in his heart.

It's fine if he doesn't die for the country, but he still welcomes the bandits and takes the lead in persuading the bandits to become emperor. He definitely doesn't want to let such a person go.It's just that there is still use value, so there is no disposal!

Perhaps Wang Dehua also knew that he was a little out of favor, so he was even more cautious. When he saw Emperor Chongzhen coming out of the palace gate, he hurriedly played in a courteous way: "Long Live Lord, the servants have brought me the memorial!"

"Put it in, I'm not free now!" Emperor Chongzhen said coldly after hearing this, then turned his head and left.

At this time, the big things are not as big as the things he wants to do!

I got the treasure tray from Liu Weichao, but if it can be used, there is a time period.However, as far as the current situation is concerned, Emperor Chongzhen really didn't want to wait for a moment.

Therefore, even though it was already evening, he thought about rushing to the military battle bureau under the Yumajian first.

Wang Dehua was slightly taken aback when he heard this.You know, in the past, when Emperor Chongzhen heard that the memorial had arrived, he had to read it immediately.

But now, they don't even care about these memorials?

When he came back to his senses, he saw that Emperor Chongzhen didn't stop for a moment and was about to leave, so he was a little anxious, and hurriedly played: "Long live Lord, there are still a few memorials that are a bit urgent, I don't know if Long live Lord has dealt with them." ?”

Hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen was a little annoyed.

What else can happen?It must be asking for money and food everywhere, or besieged by thieves somewhere, asking for help from the court!

If it was changed before, he would definitely deal with it immediately, and would think of ways to gather troops to rescue and so on.

But now he doesn't think so.

Because he already knew that instead of tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall, in the end both the east wall and the west wall have problems, it is better to bring back all the brave guards who are loyal to him, and then grow stronger, and after the capital is rectified, we can talk about other things!

As for the place besieged by thieves, if you really can't defend it, there is nothing you can do.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen didn't stop, but just replied: "Didn't you hear? I'm busy!"

"..." Wang Dehua was taken aback again, is the emperor busy?What are you busy with?
He was not like this before!

No matter how busy he is, the emperor will never delay the important affairs of the court!

Seeing that the emperor had really left, Wang Dehua became a little anxious, and hurriedly played again: "If the memorial of the cabinet ministers is not rejected, the cabinet will have no one to deal with government affairs!"

"Huh?" Emperor Chongzhen finally stopped when he heard it, turned his head, and asked a little doubtfully, "What do you mean?"

As soon as Wang Dehua heard it, he knew that the emperor hadn't read the previous memorial at all, and he was very surprised.

One day has passed, and I still put these memorials on the top of all the memorials, but the emperor didn't even see it!
That is to say, he didn't review the memorial at all in the past day?

What's going on here?
He found that the emperor had really changed a bit!
But now under the watchful eyes of Emperor Chongzhen, he didn't dare to think about it, and quickly replied: "All the cabinet ministers are either unwell or old and weak, so they all submitted their resignations!"

"Huh?" Emperor Chongzhen frowned when he heard this.

In the system of the Ming Dynasty, the memorials from all over the country first went to the Secretary of General Administration, and then sent to the cabinet, and the ministers of the cabinet wrote their opinions on the matters on the memorials on a piece of paper.Then these processed memorials will be transferred to the supervisor of ceremonies.

Generally speaking, the eunuch, the supervisor of ceremonies, and the eunuch Bingbi will approve the opinions of the cabinet ministers, that is, they agree or disagree.

If you agree, it will be sent to the emperor for review and seal, and the process of processing memorials will be completed.

If the director of rites does not agree with the opinions of the cabinet ministers, he will call back to the cabinet, or rewrite the new disposal opinions, and go through the same process; or the cabinet ministers insist on their own opinions, and the memorial will be sent to the cabinet. On the emperor's side, the emperor himself decides.

In this process, if the emperor is lazy, such as Emperor Tianqi, then the process of using the seal will be carried out by the eunuch in charge of the seal.It is equivalent to the final decision-making power in the hands of the eunuch who is in charge of the ceremony.And this is also one of the reasons why Wei Zhongxian was so powerful before.

In this Chongzhen Dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen was very diligent in administration, and the power of the eunuch in charge of the official seal was much smaller, because Emperor Chongzhen would personally review every memorial.

In the process of processing such a memorial, the role of cabinet ministers is very important, and the requirements for the ability of ministers are also very high.

Even if the eunuchs in charge of ceremonies went on strike, the emperor would not have to increase his workload much.But if the cabinet ministers go on strike, it will be completely different, which means that the processing of the memorial will be paralyzed.

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen knew the seriousness of the matter when he heard Wang Dehua's words, and immediately asked, "Where is Zhou Qing, what does he eat?"

When there was a problem in the cabinet, his immediate reaction was to investigate the chief minister of the cabinet.

The chief assistant of the cabinet leads the cabinet. In addition to taking the lead in organizing discussions and dealing with difficult problems, it is also responsible for the work arrangements of cabinet members.

If there is a problem in the cabinet, the chief assistant must be responsible.

Emperor Chongzhen was busy, and of course he was annoyed: How did this chief assistant become the chief assistant, and how could such a thing happen?

But after he finished speaking, he immediately came back to his senses.In today's cabinet, there is no chief assistant.Zhou Yanru, whom he once trusted and valued, has been taken down by him.

Thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen felt a little disgusted, and immediately asked: "There is no cabinet minister?"

"Only Master He Fengsheng is still here." Wang Dehua quickly replied, "He handled all these memorials! He has already complained to the slaves several times, saying that he is too busy."

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen said without hesitation: "He has done a good job. From now on, he will be the chief assistant of the cabinet. Let's face it first. I am busy, so I will talk about it later!"

He could see clearly that even if he was as diligent as before and dealt with the memorials in a timely manner every day, the state affairs were still corrupt, and the situation was getting worse day by day!

It's better to make steel smelting, hydraulic forging hammer, etc., and start from the first step of strengthening the army!
Therefore, after giving the order, he was in a hurry to do these things, then turned around and left.

Watching this scene, Wang Dehua was stunned.

Looking at the back of Emperor Chongzhen, he felt so strange!
After a long time, he suddenly heard movement behind him, turned his head to look, but it was a servant who couldn't hold the pile of memorials and fell to the ground.

There is no other reason, because they have been waiting outside the temple gate for two hours.
