Domineering Daming

Zhu Xu really doesn't care much about Qian Qianyi. As long as the trial is open and the evidence is conclusive, it will be able to strike a blow to those Donglin remnants or those who sympathize with Donglin and have always resisted the court, let them recognize the facts, and make Donglin Bury, let factionalism become a thing of the past.

Holding his teacup, Zhu Xu said, "The case of Qian Qianyi must be publicized throughout the world, as a negative teaching material. From now on, every case must be reported within Dali Temple, supplemented with the Great Ming Law and other laws, and plug the loopholes in the law... ..."

This is the case law. The Great Ming Law, the Marriage Law, etc. are not perfect, and it will take time, so the case law is extremely important.

Bi Ziyan looked surprised, and said, "Your Majesty, do you have any other comments?"

The cup in Zhu Xu's hand was as small as a wine cup, he raised the cup and emptied it, saying: "From now on, anyone who is sentenced by Dali Temple will be deprived of their qualifications to be an official for a certain period of time, and those who are serious will never be hired. "

Both Bi Ziyan and Wang Qiaonian were slightly startled, that is to say, does Dali Temple have the right to deprive officials of their qualifications to become officials?

This power has always been exclusive to the emperor, and now Dali Siqing has it, which is much more powerful than a cabinet minister!

Bi Ziyan remained expressionless, but he was already re-examining the institution of Dali Temple in his heart. At the same time, he was also thinking about the powers and duties of the Governor's Council.

Now the emperor says that those who have been sentenced by Dali Temple can be deprived of the time and qualifications to be an official again, which is logical and cannot be refuted.Does that mean that the Governor's Council also has other powers, but the emperor is afraid of their opposition and is waiting for an opportunity?

Although Wang Qiaonian is a newcomer in the political arena, he also understands the horror of the power to deprive him of his (time) eligibility to become an official (time).

Zhu Xu nodded slightly, and said: "The powers and duties of Dali Temple need to be further refined, and the cabinet needs to discuss it again, and it will be discussed at the Great Court Conference next year."

Bi Ziyan's heart sank. That is to say, this power needs the approval of all officials in the world. At that time, no one will raise objections to the judgment of Dali Temple.

This power is too great, if a treacherous person gets this position, it will be extremely terrifying!

Bi Ziyan felt uneasy, and involuntarily glanced at Wang Qiaonian beside him.

Wang Qiaonian felt it immediately, his eyes changed slightly, the pressure on his shoulders was extremely heavy, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

Zhu Xu acted as if he hadn't seen it, and said again: "How is the revision of the Great Ming Law and other laws by the Governor's Council?"

The relationship between Bi Ziyan and Prince Jing has been somewhat tense recently, and the Governor's Council is completely in the hands of Prince Jing, so Bi Ziyan is not fully aware of what the Governor's Council is doing recently, and to what extent.

Hearing Zhu Xu's words, Bi Ziyan felt a little nervous, and suddenly asked: "Your Majesty, does the law revised by the Governor's Council need the cabinet's approval?"

Zhu Xu poured himself a cup of tea and smiled, Bi Ziyan finally responded to the key issue.

Taking another sip of tea, Zhu Xu said with a normal expression, "No need. After being approved by the Governor's Council, it is only temporary. It can only become a permanent law if it is passed after a major discussion. The temporary ones have a time limit."

Bi Ziyan thought about it, but he could accept it, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, is there any other arrangement or authority for Dali Temple and the Governor's Council?"

Hearing this, Wang Qiaonian looked at Zhu Xu nervously.

This is the general in advance.

Holding his teacup, Zhu Xu looked at Bi Ziyan and said, "I haven't seen your cabinet's plan for the government's powers and responsibilities. After I see it, I will make a decision."

Bi Ziyan was uneasy. He didn't know what Zhu Xu was going to do, and he couldn't object now, and he definitely couldn't object when it happened!

At this time, Cao Huachun came in from the outside and whispered in Zhu Xu's ear, "Your Majesty, Shen Shangshu is here."

Zhu Xu put down his teacup, looked at the two and said, "Is there anything else?"

Bi Ziyan frowned, he felt very awkward in his heart now.It stands to reason that the emperor in front of him has been enthroned for seven years. Although he has done everything well, there have been no accidents. He and the adults in the outer court should trust him.But I don't know why, when he faced the emperor in front of him, he couldn't help but worry. He was always worried that he would do something out of the ordinary, and he always hoped to know it earlier so that he could stop it or "slow down".

"Is it because the emperor's actions are always unexpected, which caught us off guard and didn't have time to react carefully?"

Bi Ziyan asked himself, but couldn't think of an answer. He took a deep breath, looked at Zhu Xu with a deep look, and said, "Your Majesty, do you have any special requirements regarding the founding day, the national flag, and the national anthem?"

"No, you have discussed it, show it to me." Zhu Xu said.Everyone in the Ming Dynasty has the pride of "the kingdom of heaven", and the things they make are majestic and domineering. You only need to care about this kind of thing, and you don't need to do it yourself.

Bi Ziyan looked at Zhu Xu, didn't say much, stood up and said: "I will leave."

"En." Zhu Xu picked up the spoon beside him, filled the teapot, and waited quietly for Shen Xun.

Shen Xun came a little anxiously, came in a hurry, raised his hand and said: "My minister Shen Xun sees the emperor."

Zhu Xu sat up and said with a smile, "Excuse me, sit down and taste the tea I made."

Shen Xun can be regarded as a little transparent in the six parts, and most of the cabinet discussions are in the role of supporting votes. Although the rumors outside are directed at Xu Dahua, Shen Xun is neither an imperial party nor close to the emperor, so he is inevitably a little uneasy. I don't know when it will involve him.

He walked cautiously, sat down without any mistakes, and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty." Then he picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip.

Pausing for a moment, under Zhu Xu's gaze, he said against his will: "It moistens the mouth and tongue, and the aroma is overflowing."

Zhu Xu laughed, and said: "Then have a few more drinks, and tell me by the way, how is the matter of asking you to revise?"

Shen Xun didn't really drink a few more glasses, bowed his body, and said: "Back to the emperor, my Great Ming ceremony is as vast as the sea, and it will take at least two or three years to sort it out. If there is another screening, it may take two or three years." .”

Zhu Xu put his teacup in his mouth and looked thoughtfully.

By this time, almost all the affairs of Daming are complicated and complicated, and it takes a lot of time to sort out a clear and clear one slowly.

Completing the ceremony is equivalent to compiling a great book, which consumes an untold amount of manpower and effort.

"Ah."

Zhu Xu put down his teacup and said, "Tell me about the government affairs of the Ministry of Rites."

Shen Xun is familiar with this, and said: "Now there are three things in the government affairs of the Ministry of Rites. The first thing is the big sacrifice at the end of the year, the second is the invigilation of the imperial examination next year, the third is to receive guests and envoys from all over the surrounding areas to Beijing, and the other is about Five ceremonies and other trivial matters, among which the clan and Xunqing have heavy affairs, and the Ministry of Rites has concentrated a lot of energy on handling them."

Zhu Xu didn't care much about the affairs of the Ministry of Rituals. Except for a "courtesy of guests", the others were trivial and miscellaneous.

After thinking for a while, Zhu Xu said: "The embassy area in the east of the city, the pass, etc. must be taken care of, and be careful. Next year, envoys from all over the country will come to Beijing to participate in my wedding ceremony. Don't make trouble. If you need manpower, ask the cabinet... "

"Yes, I understand." Shen Xun said.

Just as Zhu Xu was about to say more, Cao Huachun hurried over to Zhu Xu and handed him a note from Fei Ge.

Zhu Xu took a look at him, took it curiously, opened his eyes and looked at him with a weird expression.

This is a letter from Feige from Shaanxi, saying that King Xin intends to return to Beijing to attend his wedding ceremony.

Zhu Xu sighed and shook his head inwardly. As the fifth elder brother, he was indecisive, fearful of wolves and tigers in the past, and would compromise and give in whenever something happened.

"He can come if he wants to." Zhu Xu said indifferently as he threw the note into the charcoal fire.Zhu Youjian is quite contradictory, he shrinks back when it is time to do things, and wants him to be honest, but he wants to enter the capital, a place of right and wrong, at this time.

Shen Xun saw the word "letter" on the rapidly burning paper, combined with Zhu Xu's words, he thought of something quickly, his eyes changed slightly, and after a moment of pondering, he said: "Your Majesty, I came in a hurry, please wait for me to go back." Write a memorial, organize it, and then report to the emperor the detailed government affairs of the Ministry of Rites this year."

"Well, let's go." Zhu Xu didn't care, the Ministry of Rites really didn't hold enough weight in his heart.

"I will leave." Shen Xun breathed a sigh of relief, and slowly walked out of Zhu Xu's classroom.

"It's still short of the Criminal Department..."

Zhu Xu's eyes flickered and he said to himself, Zhang Wenda is old and cunning, as cunning as a fox, but since entering Beijing, he has been very low-key, not as powerful, cunning and changeable as Tianqi Dynasty, who roamed the court.

Back then, the Zhejiang Party, the Kunming Party, etc. were defeated in one fell swoop, making the Donglin Party's dominant and powerful figure seem to be silent.
