I defeated Emperor Chongzhen at the beginning!

Chapter 40 What do you think of the matter in the court?

"I believe that in addition to Mrs. Zhao Jing, another official should be appointed as the left inspector to supervise the officials in the election system for poor students."

A civil servant who had never come forward to speak stood up.

It took Zhu Youjian a while to realize that this person was Lin Xuan, the minister of the Ministry of Industry.

If he remembered correctly, this person had never belonged to a gang and was living alone.

But at this time, listening to his words, it was clear that he was speaking for Shang Ling.

"So, in Aiqing's opinion, who do you think can take on this great responsibility?"

Zhu Youjian watched them perform quietly.

Lin Xuan bowed and saluted, lowered his head, cast a sideways glance at Shang Ling, and then looked at Zhu Youjian.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I believe that the head of the country, Shang Ling, has both talent and virtue, and has the right to speak in the court. He should be the most suitable candidate for this position."

Now that the aristocratic family has been defeated, the great resistance above the court has completely disappeared.

Those officials who were once inclined to the family not only lost their support, but also lost their target of flattery.

It is not an easy task for them to find new sources of support.

But it is very rare for Lin Xuan to change from a person who never formed a clique to what he is now.

Zhu Youjian narrowed his eyes and looked in Lin Xuan's direction.

Loyalty 65!

At first glance, he is not a good person.

Zhu Youjian's face turned cold instantly, and his voice became dull.

"It's a good proposal, but did Ai Qing seek personal gain because of it? If I remember correctly, you didn't have any contact with the father-in-law before, so how can you conclude that he is the right person for the position?"

"This……"

Lin Xuan didn't know how to answer for a while, he originally wanted to take this opportunity to win over Shang Ling, so as to pave the way for his future promotion in the officialdom.

Zhu Youjian didn't want to look at Lin Xuan again, so as not to make trouble.

"Anyone else have any suggestions?"

Fishing Law Enforcement!

He wants to see how many people in the court are eager to gain new power.

After finally destroying the aristocratic family, Zhu Youjian will no longer allow evil forces to exist in the court!
On the side of the Qing emperor, Zhengchaogang.It was never just a simple slogan!

However, there are still a lot of bold people in this world, not to mention that promotion and clinging to power are what most officials desire.

As soon as Zhu Youjian finished asking this question, half of the officials were ready to move.

The Secretary of the Ministry of War was the first to stand up among this group of people.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Lord Liu Yi, the censor of the right capital, is in charge of the inspection of all officials, and there are similarities in the matter of the election of officials as inspectors. Therefore, I think that Lord Liu can take on this important task!"

Seeing that a small military secretary dared to speak out.

This group of civil and military officials were even more presumptuous.

The next one is the left servant of the household department.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I think that Lord Liu is exhausted in being in charge of all officials and inspectors. If Lord Liu is allowed to take on this important task again, I am afraid that Lord Liu will be tired. On the contrary, the head of the country has this talent and virtue, and his official position is a civil position. , and still has energy. Whether it is for the sake of the empress or other things, Lord Shang Lingshang is the most suitable person for this great task."

"Your Majesty, I think..."

"..."

The crowd almost swarmed forward, recommending the most suitable candidate in their hearts.

Of course, it is also the candidate they want to cling to.

This move completely angered Zhu Youjian.

He slapped the armrest of the dragon chair with one hand and got up angrily.

"Bold! I despise official collusion the most! I will never allow any flatterers in the court!"

As he spoke, Zhu Youjian waved his hands, and issued a decree: "Pass down my will, Lin Xuan, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, will flatter you. He has no talent or virtue, and has failed my expectations. Therefore, he will be demoted to the fourth rank, and he will never be allowed to enter the court again!"

"The Secretary-General of the Ministry of War willfully forget his words and try to cling to the powerful! He has no talent and no virtue! So he was demoted to the fifth rank, and his clan members will never be able to serve as officials!"

"The left servant of Tobe..."

Kill the chicken and the monkey!
Zhu Youjian punished the officials who had just made use of his son to speak one by one.

Now above the court, no one dared to speak falsely.

"The election of the left inspector by the officials will be discussed later. Let's stop today and retire from the court!"

……

Inside the Royal Garden.

Standing in the gazebo, Hong Chengchou looked at Zhu Youjian's back towards Chizi, pulled it out, and spoke again.

"Your Majesty, why are you so angry at the court today?"

Zhu Youjian stopped the hand that put in the fish food, then sighed softly, turned around, walked to the table and sat down.

"How can I not be angry? Now in the court, all the officials don't think about their duties, and they are all thinking about how to find a new dignitary to cling to. If things go on like this, who else in the court can cheer up and relieve their worries?" , What good officials can I have in Daming!
That's all for civil servants, they can just turn a blind eye.But those generals on the battlefield have also started to cling to the powerful, how can I not be angry?
My Ming Dynasty is now suffering from internal and external troubles, and I need these generals to suppress uprisings and resist foreign enemies everywhere.

But what about them!Everyone only thinks about themselves, how to stabilize their position in the court!What a nest of snakes and rats! "

lb!
Zhu Youjian patted the stone table again, and all the teacups on the table were knocked over.

The eunuchs and maids beside him all knelt down.

Hong Chengchou also quickly lowered his head and bowed in salute.

Looking at the people kneeling on the ground, Zhu Youjian knew that he shouldn't take his anger out on them, so he waved his hands and said, "Stand back, I don't need your service here, I have something to say to Mr. Hong alone .”

"Yes!"

Hong Chengchou still maintained the posture of bowing his head and saluting. The emperor didn't tell him to flatten his body, so he remained in this posture all the time.

After everyone retreated, Zhu Youjian stood up, personally grabbed Hong Chengchou's arm, and helped him up.

"Ai Qing, don't be so alarmed. I'm angry because of those civil and military officials who don't think about their duties. How can they compare with you?"

Zhu Youjian trusted Hong Chengchou very much, after all, his loyalty was as high as 100.

If you don't trust this person, who else can you trust?
But Hong Chengchou was just helped up by Zhu Youjian, and after hearing this, he quickly knelt down on one knee.

"My lord is guilty!"

Zhu Youjian looked at the series of actions of the man in front of him with some amusement.

"What are you guilty of?"

Hong Chengchou was good at everything, but he was too rigid in front of him.

"It is my biggest mistake not to share your majesty's worries!"

puff!

Zhu Youjian finally couldn't help laughing out loud.

Hong Chengchou, who was kneeling on the ground, looked up at Zhu Youjian with some doubts, and blinked twice.

"What is the meaning of this, Your Majesty?"

"Hong Aiqing, I find you are getting cuter and cuter!"

Zhu Youjian patted Hong Chengchou's shoulder, then held it, and with some force, helped him up again.

Facing Hong Chengchou's suspicious gaze, Zhu Youjian also put away his smile, and said seriously: "What do you think about the matter in the court?"
