Domineering Daming

Sun Chuanting did not have the arrogance of being the first assistant, and became more calm. He looked at him: "You underestimate Bi Ge too much."

Seeing that Sun Chuanting was not angry, Bao Liyou boldly said, "My lord, it's not that the lower officials are talking too much and slandering the upper officials. Mrs. Bi Ge is too conservative and seeks perfection in everything. There is a reason for the emperor's dissatisfaction. He is going to be an official now, and he still has a lot to do." Are you being too tolerant of setting up obstacles for you and wanting to frame you?"

Sun Chuanting looked at Bao Liyou with a slightly "surprised" look, and then said: "You have stayed with me for two years, go out and experience it. Next year Liaodong will draw up a few more provinces, you go first Be a counselor from the fourth rank."

Sun Chuanting hadn't mentioned this matter before, Bao Liyou was slightly startled, bowed and said: "My lord, but what did the student say wrong?"

Sun Chuanting shook his head and said, "Do well, don't let me down."

Only then did Bao Liyou relax, and said, "Thank you, sir."

Sun Chuanting leaned on the wall of the room, closed his eyes slightly, but his heart was still churning like a river.

As Sun Chuanting's successor, this was decided by the Qianqing Palace six years ago, or even longer.

He has to admire the current person who is extremely accurate. He is "slack" in promoting the "New Deal" by the cabinet, and he is dissatisfied with the lack of major breakthroughs in the "New Deal". .

Sun Chuanting has followed Zhu Xu for many years, and he has gained trust. He also knows Zhu Xu quite well.

This man was ruthless to his compatriots' clan, and exterminated the Donglin Party that helped him to the top. His ancestors became law, and the annals of history despised him for thousands of years.

But Sun Chuanting knew that this man had love in his heart, but not everyone could have it.

However, Bi Ziyan has.

He will too!

"The king gave me the handle of heaven, and I will repay it with a poor life!"

Sun Chuanting's eyes flashed with scorching light, and he murmured to himself like thunder.

Chapter 1257 New forces

Sun Chuanting's speech in the cabinet was very short, and there were not many important court officials who were watching, but it exploded like a thunderbolt in the sky of Ming Dynasty, making countless people on the ground tremble and feel uneasy.

Now, the only person who can restrain Sun Chuanting is Bi Ziyan who lives in Zhejiang. Therefore, the eyes of Daming turned to Zhejiang again.

Sun Chuanting's words undoubtedly declared that he would be Jing Zhengchao's second "chief assistant". As the incumbent, many people were pondering Bi Ziyan's thoughts and waiting quietly.

The party, Sun Chuanting, did not have this self-awareness, so he left a sentence and went to Shanhaiguan in a horse-drawn carriage.

Hangzhou Mansion, West Lake, Su Causeway.

Qin Zhengyi, Prime Minister of the Hangzhou government, accompanied Bi Ziyan, and said, "Master Ge, my subordinates have eight strategies for the Hangzhou government. First, dig river thoroughfare, dredge the river, overhaul official roads, and ensure smooth traffic in various places. Second, Cultivate wasteland, resettle people with little land and no land, increase the registration and verification of acres, and implement step-by-step taxation. Third, encourage business, communicate with China inside and outside the Ming Dynasty, supplement taxation in various ways, and make up for the fiscal deficit Uh. Fourth, strictly enforce the rules and regulations of the imperial court, and severely punish any corrupt officials, dereliction of duty and laziness! Fifth..."

On the Su Causeway, Bi Ziyan and Qin Zhengyi walked in front, with a large group of guards behind them.

Bi Ziyan did not disturb the governor of Zhejiang and the prefect of Hangzhou, but quietly called Qin Zhengyi, the prime minister of Hangzhou, who had just taken office.

Bi Ziyan seemed to be much older, with his hands behind his back and his body hunched over, he was quietly listening to Qin Zhengyi's somewhat impassioned narration of his policy outline.

Qin Zhengyi, Du Yu, and Bige were very excited to be summoned alone, but their words were very cautious, without impetuous exaggeration, nor cautious restraint.

Qin Zhengyi was a student of the first Royal Political Academy, and Bi Ziyan was also the dean of the Royal Political Academy at that time, Qin Zhengyi can be said to be Bi Ziyan's protégé.

After six or seven years, the students of the Royal Government Academy gradually entered the hall. Although Qin Zhengyi was not conspicuous, the 30-year-old Hangzhou Fu Cheng was considered a rising star of the younger generation.

After listening for a while, Bi Ziyan nodded slightly, as if he had a cold, and said in a hoarse voice: "Hangzhou Mansion is emerald in humanities, and there are many great talents throughout the ages. If you can come here, you must calm down, do things seriously, and don't be impatient. Some things , don't get involved."

Qin Zhengyi looked at Bi Ziyan, raised his hand and said, "George, it's not that the lower officials are criticizing the cabinet, but the cabinet has gone too far recently! If the cabinet can't calm down, how can we low-ranking officials be safe? live?"

Qin Zhengyi published a memorandum not long ago, criticizing the cabinet elders one by one, including Bi Ziyan, thinking that they are burdened by selfishness and unable to focus on government affairs, which is a disaster for the country and the family. Make the cabinet stable and ensure that the "New Deal" is carried out in a steady and orderly manner without any mistakes.

This memorandum is actually very pertinent, but it has offended a group of bigwigs in the cabinet, and now ordinary people can't do such a thing.

Qin Zhengyi was Bi Ziyan's protégé, so some people couldn't help thinking too much. Bi Ziyan was also worried that the chaos in the cabinet he suppressed would be stirred up again, so he clicked on Qin Zhengyi.

This man is rather personable, and he dares to speak out in front of Bi Ziyan.

Bi Ziyan turned his head to look at him, and said with a smile, "I haven't had such an outspoken official in Ming Dynasty for a long time, so let's just say it. The implementation of the 'New Deal' of the Hangzhou government is not satisfactory. You need to work harder in the future. Be careful, don't let the emperor down, the cultivation of the court."

Qin Zhengyi could not help frowning when he heard the despondent tone in Bi Ziyan's words, and said in a bad tone: "Mr. Ge, is it true that Mr. Sun Ge is in a hurry to drive you away like the rumors outside?"

Perhaps Bi Ziyan was tired, so he sat down on a long stone chair, looked at the sparkling lake, waved his hand to signal Qin Zhengyi to sit down, and said with a soft smile: "It's not as mysterious as it is said outside, it's all The people below will make a mistake and do something, so it’s not a problem.”

Qin Zhengyi looked at Bi Ziyan's smile seriously, Er nodded and said, "I don't have any prejudice against Mr. Sun Ge, and I don't want to provoke trouble."

"I know, there's no need to worry."

Bi Ziyan laughed, then his face darkened, and said: "I heard that the officials from the Political Yuan are not at ease? What do you say that the old three will overthrow the last three, and the seventh and eighth will look at it. Is there such a saying?"

Qin Zhengyi, who was quite generous at first, suddenly froze, not daring to hide it, bowed his body, and said: "Mr. Ge, you also know that the third class is your disciple, and the ones behind are the emperor's disciples. They look down on us. We were excluded, and we repeatedly tampered with our career, and some classmates were so angry that they secretly fought back, not to form a clique for personal gain, it is really helpless."

In the Royal Political Council, the dean of the first three years was Bi Ziyan, and later Zhu Xu served concurrently, which is the origin of the third term.

Bi Ziyan naturally knew about this situation, shook his head, and sighed: "Short-sighted, how can you take up such a big responsibility? Don't look at the fact that you have tens of thousands of people in the eighth class, but you can really become masters and apprentices. 1000 people, most of them are outside the officialdom, don’t you understand?”

Qin Zhengyi's face changed slightly, and he asked cautiously: "What does Mr. Ge mean, is that anyone suspected of forming a party will be discarded by the imperial court?"

Bi Ziyan looked at the lake with long-distance and erratic eyes, and said: "The emperor hates factionalism, and you have already had such signs. If you don't suppress it, you are still waiting for you to grow up and not lose your tail?"

Then Qin Zhengyi broke out in a drop of cold sweat, feeling uneasy all over, stood up and raised his hand and said: "Please help me, my mentor, we have not formed a clique for privacy, let alone endangering the 'New Deal'!"

Bi Ziyan smiled and said, "I know you didn't participate, so don't be nervous. Sit down and talk about your views on what Sun Chuanting said."

Qin Zhengyi endured his uneasiness, considered the words he had thought up long ago, and said, "My lord, Mr. Sun Ge has always been fierce in his actions. I'm afraid he said these words to those officials who neglected the 'New Deal'. Perhaps, it is A kind of warning to do glue injection for something in the future."

Bi Ziyan rolled up his sleeves and said, "Well, actually, it was for me."

Qin Zhengyi was really confused about the situation in the cabinet, so he could only look at Bi Ziyan and wait for him to continue to explain.

Bi Ziyan said: "I have been in the cabinet for many years, and most of them inside and outside the capital are people who think like me. What he said was for me to beat some officials."

Qin Zhengyi admired Bi Ge's self-cultivation, and remained silent.

Although there are some disagreements within the Faculty of Political Affairs, Mr. Bi Ge is always on top of them like a mountain, and they all hope that Mr. Bi Ge will leave soon.

Perhaps, Mr. Bi Ge was also aware of this, so he came to him, the third-year man of the hour.

What would Old Bi Ge say?

Chapter 1258 The Power

Qin Zhengyi looked at Elder Bi Ge, guessing his thoughts.

Bi Ziyan walked slowly on the Su Causeway with his hands behind his back.

At this time, maybe the whole of Daming has not been able to guess his thoughts, and he doesn't mind that others seem to understand his thoughts.
