Domineering Daming

Bi Ziyan has been the "chief assistant" for so many years, so he naturally has a certain majesty, sitting upright, with a gloomy face, angry eyes, and a hint of domineering in his majesty.

After a while, Bi Ziyan put down the notebook, looked up at the three of them, and said calmly, "What do you think about this?"

Fang Kongxuan said: "The morale of my Ming officials has been corrupted for more than a day or two, but what happened recently is really shocking and irritating."

Feng Jiangfeng's eyes flashed with a stern light, and he said: "It seems to me that there are fewer people killed! The emperor is still kind in some matters, and he doesn't kill enough! There is no one who doesn't kill people! My lord, my lord! Suggestion, please ask the prison department to investigate, but if there are any similar cases, they will all be sent to prison for questioning, and if the lower officials don't believe it, this evil trend will not be stopped!"

Bi Ziyan glanced at him with a frown. The reason why Qianqing Palace killed so few people was because their cabinet tried to stop them. This Feng Jiangfeng slapped him in the face properly!

Feng Jiangfeng didn't notice Bi Ziyan's expression, turned to Fang Kongxuan and said, "My lord, we in Nanzhili should also use heavy codes. The evil wind in the world is the strongest in Nanzhili. If you don't kill some people, they won't know where they are wrong." !"

Fang Kongxuan frowned, they were officials from Nanzhili, how could they be so dismissed in front of the old court.

Besides, imperial examinations and official admissions have been banned, what else do you want to do, kill all the scholars! ?

Bi Ziyan was aware of Feng Jiangfeng's conduct, he had always been stern and decisive, he had no way to criticize anything, and without saying anything, he looked at Xu Jie and said, "What do you think about this matter?"

Xu Jie murmured, and said: "My lord, Mr. Baigu Pavilion must have thought about this matter, I don't know what it is?"

Bi Ziyan paused, and said: "There have been several training courses at the Royal Political Council, but due to various reasons, they have not been able to really play a role. Sun Baigu suggested that officials at all levels should be transferred to Beijing in turn and give them classes separately. , Examination, if you fail, you will be dismissed immediately. Unqualified...including compliance with discipline, reputation, political performance, complaints, bad deeds, etc., the items are quite harsh..."

Fang Kongxuan immediately understood that Sun Chuanting wanted to weave a fine and dense net, and conduct a selection process for the officials of the next day, keeping the good ones and sending the bad ones to prison.

This is to cleanse the world's officials and eliminate the unhealthy tendencies in officialdom!

Fang Kongzheng thought quickly, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "I agree, this move can control the situation in a small area, and there will be no big trouble."

Feng Jiangfeng raised his sword eyebrows slightly, and said: "The lower officials have no objection, but I suggest starting from the bottom. Those low-level officials are more hateful than those corrupt and extorting officials, and must be removed as soon as possible!"

Xu Jie knew Bi Ziyan quite well, looked at his unwavering brows, and asked doubtfully, "My lord, is there any difficulty in this?"

Bi Ziyan looked at Xu Jie, then glanced at Fang Kongxuan, Feng Jiangfeng didn't say much on this topic, and said indifferently: "I will leave Nanzhili in a few days, and you have to finish the other things well, and don't make any more troubles." Don't think that the emperor, the imperial court will be merciful, and tell those who still want to jump up and down that the imperial court's discipline cannot be challenged, otherwise the thunder will fall!"

When the three of Fang Kongxue heard this, their expressions changed immediately, and they quickly got up and said, "Your Majesty, I will follow your orders."

Bi Ziyan said "um" indifferently, and did not watch them leave.

He had something to say, but he didn't point it out to Fang Kongxuan, Xu Jie, and Feng Jiangfeng.Since the current emperor ascended the throne, the imperial examinations have survived in name only, and most of the newly recruited officials come from the Royal Political Council. The first batch of these students have been in office for six years, enough to serve as magistrates, or even prefects. If this "breeze" As the plan unfolded, it was bound to be these students who filled these gaps.

The students of the Royal Political Academy are completely different from the officials of the Ming Dynasty now. What they learn, their habits of doing things, methods, and even their views on the Ming Dynasty are completely determined by the curriculum of the Qianqing Palace. If these people enter the local government or the court, I don't know what changes it will bring.

When Bi Ziyan was about to leave Nanzhili and turn to Zhejiang, Sun Chengzong had already appeared in Jiangxi.

What he held in his hand was almost exactly the same as Bi Ziyan's. In front of him stood Li Dingguo, Wu Xiang, Zu Dashou and others who had changed their names.

Sun Chengzong has become more and more old recently. After all, he is more than 70 years old, with gray hair at the temples, a thin face, and he is not angry.

He put down the notebook, looked at the people in front of him, and said, "Have you all read it?"

Li Dingguo, Wu Xiang, and Zu Dashou all nodded, but they were a little puzzled.They are military generals, now civil and military are divided into rule, civil officials make a big joke, what do you tell them these things?

Sun Chengzong looked at the three of them with piercing eyes, and said: "Although this matter was done by civil servants, can you tell me that there are no such people in our army? I have nothing to do all day long, just thinking about flattering. This memorial is written It is full of beautiful flowers and brilliant writing, the emperor has been in the Qianqing Palace for nearly a decade, guess what the emperor is thinking?"

Li Dingguo is still relatively young and has not long joined the army, but Wu Xiang and Zu Dashou came from a wealthy family in Liaodong, so those things were not too far away seven or eight years ago.The current Ming army was established on the basis of that time, and most of the officers are still scholars. If there is no such thing, no one will believe it.

Sun Chengzong looked calm, and said lightly: "After the 'military reform' is completed this time, the army will also have a 'breeze'. The officialdom must be pure, and the army must be clean! You must count in your heart. No mistakes are allowed! If you make mistakes, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Sun Chengzong's words were full of murderous intent, Li Dingguo, Wu Xiang, and Zu Dashou's expressions were serious, and they said: "I dare not!"

Sun Chengzong has been staring at these people, and he has not found any bad deeds, so he is relatively relieved.

Locally, the "New Deal" and "Military Reform" are rapidly advancing with the help of a series of incidents. Various policies and prohibitions are also being popularized and implemented with unprecedented strength and decisiveness.

Especially the assistant ministers of the cabinet, the ministers of the six ministers, etc. all went out of Beijing.

Chapter 1086

Entering September, the summer of this year is unprecedentedly hot.

The sun seems to be always above the head, scorching every corner of Daming, and the ground seems to be on fire. Even at night, it is not cool at all, and it is sultry as if being boiled.

Dongnuange is considered to be in the depths of Qianqing Palace. Even so, without ice cubes, it is still hot and sweaty, making people listless, drowsy, and distracted.

Zhu Xu sat at the table, looking at the playbook in his hand.This is Chen Qiyu, the governor of Shuntian, who said that the weather this year is extremely hot, and there have been several fires in the capital, burning down more than a dozen houses, and even killing many people, the heat is unbearable!

Xiao Yongning stood beside him, with a bitter face, staring at Zhu Xu's playbook, without any energy.

On the soft bed not far from them, four little guys, Xiao Shuxian, Ciye, Cixuan, and Ciyi, were frolicking around, seemingly unaware of all this.

Shuxian and Ciye are almost one year old, and they can already walk tremblingly. Cixuan and Ciyi can also crawl. The four little ones each have toys, and they huddle together, playing and playing endlessly.

Ciye was stuffy, didn't talk much, sat there with an illustration in his hand, and kept silent.

On the other hand, Xiao Shuxian is already speaking fluently, and some vocabulary pops up from time to time. She also runs around on the soft floor, holding all kinds of toys, and playing happily.

Cixuan sat across from her, staring blankly, as if she wanted to participate but didn't dare to move, a little cute.

Ci Yi just watched, blinked his eyes, and occasionally said something, as if he was saying something, but he was quite energetic.

Shuxian is like the big sister, she has occupied most of the toys, she just bullied the two younger brothers, her little face is full of smiles, she keeps giggling, she is always so happy.

Around the soft collapse, there are two other maids who are guarding carefully.

Zhu Xu would look up from time to time, with these four little guys around, even the hot weather was a little more comfortable.

He put Chen Qiyu's playbook aside, and picked up Fu Changzong's playbook.

Fu Changzong's memorandum said that the temperature in Shaanxi and Sichuan was extremely high this year, and most of the rivers were dry.

Zhu Xu shook his head lightly. This was something that had been expected, so he picked up the next book.

This is a memorandum from the Ministry of Industry and the Flood Control Department, saying that this year's rain is more than last year. There is a vast ocean everywhere, and it is difficult for people and boats to cross.

The most notable feature of the Little Ice River is that droughts and floods run side by side. The drought lasts for a long time without a single drop of rain. The drought lasts for a long time. It seems to be able to break down all dams!

Zhu Xu looked at it again and again, but finally let it go.

These are beyond the reach of manpower. He has done everything he can do in advance, and it depends on whether God can still have some sympathy.

The drought is not terrible. If the embankment breaks, it will be enough to submerge hundreds of miles, or even hundreds of miles. The scope is large and the population is large. Such losses cannot be recovered in three to five years, let alone this is just the beginning. It will go on and on for many years to come...

Xiao Yongning looked at Zhu Xu's dignified expression, rolled his big eyes, and leaned closer and whispered: "Uncle Huang, why don't we go out to play tomorrow, relax, and stay here all day, you will get sick, I heard Chengnan A very fine silk appeared over there, and the queen mother liked it..."

"Go, wipe off the four of them, don't use cold water, use warm water." Zhu Xu said lightly.

Xiao Yongning immediately pursed her mouth. She has been "serving" in the Qianqing Palace for the past few days, and what she does is usually the work of a court lady.She is a princess, so where did she do this, there was Li Xiangjun quietly helping in front of her, since Li Xiangjun was driven away, she was almost exhausted.

She knew very well that if she didn't do well, the punishment would be terrible!
