My Daming New Empire

But now that Zhu Gaochi is not in good health, Zhu Zhanji has to serve him for a while, whether it is for acting or because of sincerity.

So when he came to the main hall, Zhu Zhanji told Liu Wan to send someone to clean up the place, and he will deal with state affairs here for a while.

Entering the main hall, Zhu Zhanji glanced at He Chun, who was a little guilty, and took the initiative to comfort him: "Gu has understood clearly, what happened today was just an accident, I can't blame you. Go and bring Li Chun here, Gu wants to interrogate him personally .”

He Chunru was pardoned, and immediately bowed his head and went out to detain him.

Only then did Zhu Zhanji say to Li Bin again: "The Marquis of Fengcheng has done a good job, and I will continue to work hard in the future. Don't let people disturb my father."

Li Bin was also a little uneasy because Zhu Gaochi vomited blood, but he was relieved when he heard that Zhu Zhanji didn't blame him. "This is the duty of a minister, and His Highness should not praise it."

"The avant-garde guards of the government army are doing well, but these servants need to be carefully managed. There are many factions and complex personnel in the palace. Now the servants here in this other courtyard should also be strictly supervised. From now on, the servants here must not When going out, the necessary supplies will be delivered by the palace servants. However, the servants of the two parties are not allowed to hand over, and all the supplies will be handed over by the avant-garde guards of the government army."

Li Bin said with some concern: "I am afraid that His Highness's good intentions will attract different opinions."

Indeed, if the other courtyard is turned into a big prison, as a son of man, but his father is imprisoned, Zhu Zhanji's reputation will be bad.

Zhu Zhanji said with a smile: "At first, Gu also had some concerns, but now, the opportunity is ready! Gu didn't restrict the father and the civil servants, but only the servants!"

He Chun led several people to escort Li Chun to the gate of the main hall. "Your Highness, Li Chun is here."

Chapter 63 Go to sea

On the last day of March, Ying Tianfu's most sensational topic.From the emperor's personal conquest, it immediately turned to the matter that all 67 people in the Confucian Mansion were arrested and sent to the inner prison.

Who is the Kong family?Even illiterate old peasants did not know that they were the only thousand-year-old family in Daming, and they had heard of Confucius.

Although this aristocratic family does not have much influence in the officialdom, it is already a remarkable thing that it can be passed down for thousands of years.

In the court, the sensation caused by this incident was far greater than that among the people.Early this morning, there were ministers and supervisors who wanted to go to Chengtianmen to worship, and wanted to ask His Highness to release Kong's family.

However, because Zhu Zhanji was not in Yingtian Mansion, and because the Kong family was taken away, no one took the lead, so it was not implemented.

By noon, the reason why Confucius was arrested was publicized by Jin Yiwei.Hearing that His Royal Highness vomited blood again, and it was caused by the Kong family, all the ministers who wanted to speak for the Kong family died down.

Just kidding, these ministers can meddle in everything, except royal affairs!

It's no wonder that the Kong family was not imprisoned in the Ministry of Criminal Justice or Dali Temple, but in the inner prison, because this directly offended the royal family!

Jian Yi has been annoyed and tired these days because of the Kong family case.But last night the people in the Confucian Mansion were arrested, but his heart became empty.

From the first day he learned to read, he paid homage to the statue of Confucius. Could he watch the descendants of Confucius being caught clean?

No!

Xie Jin's visit last night strengthened his determination even more.

Looking at Zhu Zhanji's actions, he knew very well that Zhu Zhanji was killing people with soft knives and boiling frogs in warm water.

From the Shandong grain case, the Kong family was implicated. Now all the grain shops in the north and south of the Kong family have been seized, and hundreds of thousands of shi of grain have been confiscated.

Taking advantage of Ma Dezhong's case, His Highness directly lifted the brocade clothes covered by the Confucian Mansion, revealing their filthy bodies.

First, completely discredit the Kong family in terms of reputation. Without the reputation, the Kong family will have nothing.

The Ministry of Households inspected the land in Shandong, which was digging the roots of the Kong family. They have plundered for hundreds of years and become the largest landowners in Shandong.

It is clean when no one investigates, but it will definitely not be so clean when it is actually investigated.

And Kong Lenan is also an idiot, he can't see the crisis behind this, and he is still running around for the migration of the two branches, which is completely putting the cart before the horse.

No matter what, it is necessary to preserve three points of vitality for them, and not let the young Highness directly eradicate the Kong family.

Confucianism has been eradicated, can Confucianism still be fine?

The Confucian family is not clean, but His Highness cannot directly dig the foundation of Confucianism just because the Confucian family is not clean.

Only Jian Yi can help in this matter, because in today's Ming Dynasty, only his power is not restricted.

From the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, the Ming Dynasty's rules of procedure were officially implemented. Over the past two months, all ministers have fully understood the meaning behind this set of rules of procedure.

Indeed, the implementation of this set of rules of procedure has greatly increased the power in everyone's hands.

Originally, the affairs of the various ministries almost had to be passed through the court, but now, most of the affairs were distributed to the various ministries, and other people had no right to intervene.

But this kind of decentralization sacrificed the credibility of the court, and no one else, including the emperor, suffered any loss.

Especially the decentralization of finance, each department can receive more office funds than before on a monthly basis, and many tasks have already been done without other people knowing.

When power is delegated to the hands of various ministries, it is impossible for them to take it out again.

Now only Jian Yi, who is the speaker, is still qualified to interfere in the affairs of various ministries, but how much energy can he have alone?

The ministries basically don't bring up some affairs for court discussion. If he interferes, how deep can he interfere?

So he more and more admired Zhu Zhanji who came up with this plan. A simple conspiracy caused the court ministers who were united to divide and even be on guard against each other.

But the royal family, at this time, can easily control the ministries through financial appropriation.

Jian Yi proposed several times to put Daming Bank under the management of the household department, but Zhu Zhanji ignored him at all.Apparently, the young grandson knew very well that this power must not be given to the Ministry of Household Affairs.

It is precisely because of the implementation of this set of rules of procedure that Jian Yi understands that His Highness Grandson's situation is not simple.As for Taisun's plan against the Kong family, he will also think more far-reaching.

A Confucian school doesn't matter, but Confucianism can't be moved!

"My lord, Xia Shangshu of Hubu has urgent matters to see..."

"Please hurry up..."

Jian Yi hadn't finished speaking when Xia Yuanji had already entered the hall. "Brother Yi, I came here uninvited. It is really an urgent situation."

Although the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Officials are neighbors, basically, there are very few private contacts with each other.It is even rarer for someone like Xia Yuanji to come in uninvited.

Jian Yi couldn't help but stood up and asked, "What happened?"

"On March 24, the land dragon in Guyuan, Gansu turned over, and now the roads are blocked, causing countless casualties."

Jian Yi frowned, Gu Yuan is far away in the northwest, so it's not a big deal.But now that the army's westward expedition is imminent, it is necessary to pay attention to guarding the throat of the northwest.

If this spoils the plan of the Western Expedition, let alone the emperor can't spare them, even they can't forgive themselves.

"Wei Zhe, you immediately organize a rescue team to distribute money and food, and I will immediately go to see His Royal Highness Taisun and let him make up his mind."

Xia Yuanji came here for the same reason. He is the Minister of the Household Department. Since he knew about the earthquake in Guyuan at this time, he naturally organized rescue first.

But His Royal Highness Taisun had to inform, and it would be best for Jian Yi to go there.

He opened his mouth and said: "The local bank in Guyuan has limited deposits. I want to transfer a batch of money from the bank of the Chief Secretary of Shaanxi. I also hope that His Highness can cooperate with Chen Xuan."
