Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 947 Grandpa Guo jumped backwards?

In the officialdom, most of the time, he will not say death when speaking, not only to save some leeway, but also to take care of the other party's face.

Therefore, Zhu Yi's clear attitude naturally immediately attracted the attention of everyone present. As for Zhu Jian, who was directly refuted, his face was even more ugly. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhu Yi, and said coldly.

"Please enlighten me, my lord!"

"I don't dare to teach you. I just think that Mr. Zhu Ge's direction this time is a bit wrong."

Facing Zhu Jian's hostility, Zhu Yi didn't care. She picked up the teacup and took a sip, but her words were still unceremonious.

However, this also made other people present more curious, Zhang Min asked.

"What does the Duke mean by this? There are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be a fool!"

Zhu Yi naturally couldn't put on airs when her in-laws came forward.

Putting down the teacup in his hand, he spoke.

"Then I'll say it. Some people may disagree with the next words, but for the benefit of all families, even if it offends others, I have to say these words!"

While speaking, Zhu Yi raised her head, glanced around for a week, and then said.

"I think we can't fight against the emperor all the time!"

quiet!
After saying this sentence, the presence immediately became audible.

Everyone's brows could not help but frown, and their gazes at Zhu Yi also became complicated.

After a while, Zhu Jian sneered and said.

"That's right, Duke Cheng's mansion has now regained its title, and the Duke is very young, so naturally he doesn't want to get involved in this muddy water anymore."

"Since you are afraid of trouble, let's put it bluntly. With the dignity of the Duke's Mansion, is it possible that the old man and others dare to force the Duke to do something?"

"It's a pity that the Supreme Emperor has been working hard to plan for Cheng Guogong's mansion for a long time, but he never thought that in the end, the Duke of Guo would be such a person."

Zhu Yi and Zhu Jian clashed head-on, not once or twice.

And just now, Zhu Yi directly opposed Zhu Jian's suggestion, and the other party naturally didn't have a good attitude, and his tone was full of sarcasm.

However, this time, the other nobles who had been standing with Zhu Yi all fell silent and did not continue talking.

On the contrary, Zhang Min looked a little anxious, and said.

"My lord, what do you mean by this? We are all our own people. If there is any unspeakable secret, just say it. The old man believes that there is no misunderstanding that cannot be solved."

Facing everyone's scrutinizing gazes, Zhu Yi remained calm. She got up and came to the center of the flower hall, glanced around, and then stood still facing Zhu Jian.

Seeing this situation, although Zhu Jian didn't know what it meant, he also stood up. Disagreements belong to disagreements, and etiquette is still required.

The two stood facing each other, and immediately there was a smell of gunpowder.

Zhu Yi is still polite, said.

"Old Zhu Ge, the next words may not be very pleasant, please forgive me."

Zhu Jian narrowed his eyes, snorted softly, but didn't speak, Zhu Yi didn't care, straightened up and spoke.

"Then let's talk about one thing."

"Just now Zhu Ge said that Ke Dao's resentment towards the emperor can be used to incite them to make trouble in the court, and then change the emperor's intention to go to war, and even withdraw the canonization of Yang Jie and the will of Yang Hong to send troops. "

"But I think it's extremely stupid to do so!"

After laying the groundwork for so long, what Zhu Guogong said really didn't sound very pleasant.

However, coupled with his polite appearance, he didn't seem to be scolding, but rather arguing.

Moreover, people have their words first, so at this time, even if the words are equivalent to pointing their noses and scolding, Zhu Jian can only grit his teeth and say.

"Appreciate further details!"

"The reason is very simple."

Zhu Yi sighed and said.

"The current emperor is no longer on the throne for the first time, and the overall situation is unstable."

"In terms of political achievements, opening up the mutual market, renovating the big canals, and rectifying the military settlements, all major events are in order, not to mention, there are also such things as the establishment of religious schools, the restructuring of artisan households, and the Jingchao. Many trusted ministers have been promoted."

"In the inner palace, Jin Yiwei and Dongchang's two minions, especially Shu Liang, the admiral of Dongchang, is a mad dog who bites whoever he sees. In the outer court, Yu Shaobao, Wang Tianguan, Chen Zongxian, and Yu Cifu are all important officials of the emperor. Among the other ministers, apart from Mr. Zhu Ge, there are few who dare to oppose the emperor."

The words were so calm that Zhu Jian couldn't tell for a moment whether he was praising him or mocking him.

Of course, at this time, Zhu Yi didn't have time to care about his reaction, but spoke to everyone present.

"Gentlemen, I don't intend to raise others' ambitions, let alone have any other intentions. I just want to say something that no one dares to say."

"That is, although the current emperor has only been on the throne for two or three years, his control over the court is already comparable to that of the Supreme Emperor before the Northern Expedition."

After these words, everyone present fell into silence.

Of course they knew that what Zhu Yi said was the truth, but, just like what Zhu Yi said, it was difficult for them to say these words.

After all, they are from the Supreme Emperor's side.

And, more importantly, speaking out is useless except to be frustrating.

These people are either old ministers of the Supreme Emperor, or have been bound to the Supreme Emperor long ago.

The so-called one emperor and one courtier, no matter how well the emperor does, it has nothing to do with them.

In this court, many times, the position is fixed, and it is almost impossible to change it.

Even if they want to switch to the court at this time, the emperor will not believe them, even if he reluctantly believes, he will never dare to reuse them.

Not to mention, the infamy of ungratefulness that may be borne, and the anger from the Supreme Emperor.

Therefore, even if they knew very well how much influence the emperor had on the imperial court, none of them dared to say so.

The scene became a little depressing, Zhang Min's expression was not very good-looking, and he said calmly.

"What the Duke wants to say, just say it!"

Seeing this situation, Zhu Yi paused for a while, and said in a slower tone.

"What I want to say is very simple. Just now, Chen Hou and the second master have already said that, whether it is the reform of science or the matter of Yang Jie, it can be seen that the emperor is becoming more and more arbitrary now. gone."

"Zhu Ge always said that he wanted to stop him, so I would like to ask, how can we stop him?"

Zhu Yi's eyes fell on Zhu Jian's body, and said in a deep voice.

"After the decree on Ke Dao was issued, I sent people to inquire about this matter. The emperor summoned Lord Tianguan, Chen Shangshu, Lord Chief Constitution, Lord Chief Assistant, and Lord Second Assistant to meet with him."

"If the information I got is correct, the system of secret rehearsals was proposed by Lord Shoufu, and other measures were suggested by Lord Tianguan. Since the imperial decree has been issued, it means that all the ministers present must have approved it."

"I don't know how the emperor did it, but this is the usual method used by the emperor. Don't you know that Zhu Ge has suffered so many times?"

"You said that you want to incite the court discussion, but do you know whether these elders are behind the scenes for the emperor? How many people in the court are secretly ordered, An Ansheng not to be in the limelight?"

This……

Although Zhu Jian didn't want to admit it, he had to say that Zhu Yi was right.

Ke Dao has always been easy to mess with, but this time, although the emperor promoted Ke Dao to a higher level, after all, their right to speak out and argue was mobilized. However, although there were waves in Ke Dao, it was far from enough Behind this, there must be someone secretly working hard.

but……

"This point, the old man is indeed ill-considered, but the officials have the right to gossip about things, if Wang Wen and others join hands to make the officials collectively lose their voices, then the Duke of the country is too high Estimate them."

In the end, Zhu Jian was not easy to be fooled. Facing Zhu Yi's remarks, he quickly gave a rebuttal.

"After all, this matter involves the core interests of the speech officer. Even if it can be suppressed for a while, as long as someone in the court is willing to raise their arms and shout, the public opinion will become popular, and people will naturally echo it."

This tone obviously carries the meaning of tit for tat.

However, Zhu Yi was obviously not unprepared, and asked directly.

"How about the general trend of public opinion? How about some people in the DPRK and China echoing it?"

These two questions made Zhu Jian stunned on the spot.

However, he was not stopped by the question, but he did not expect that Zhu Yi would ask such a simple question.

"That's naturally..."

"What is nature?"

Zhu Yi snorted coldly, but apparently didn't intend to hear Zhu Jian finish, and interrupted him directly, saying.

"Six ministries and seven ministers, all the ministers in the cabinet, except you, Mr. Zhuge, can you be sure that who will bring these officials to come forward to oppose?"

"Or, are you planning to let another group of ministers come forward to help the officials?"

These two sentences immediately reminded everyone present.

There have been a few times when the ministers came forward collectively, but each time, the situation seemed to be not very ideal.

In the most serious time, one person counted as one, and all the participants were hit by the board. This feeling, obviously, no one would want to do it again.

Seeing other people's expressions changed, Zhu Jian thought for a while, and was about to speak, but Zhu Yi didn't give him this chance, said.

"Okay, even if you can find an important minister to come forward, or Mr. Zhu Ge is willing to come forward by himself, that's not the right to mention."

"I just want to ask, if the emperor wants to be arbitrary, so what should I do? Is it possible that you think the six subjects and the cabinet have the courage to perform?"

"Besides, if performing is so useful, why didn't the Sixth Division perform when the Supreme Emperor personally conquered it?"

What he said was bold, especially when he cited the example of the Supreme Emperor. If it weren't for Zhu Yi's identity, no one would dare to say it so bluntly.

At the same time, these words also caused everyone present to fall into deep thought.

The so-called performance refers to the situation that it does not conform to the will of the canon system and is closed by the six subjects.

This kind of power generally belongs to the six departments. However, with the gradual rise of the cabinet, it is generally believed that the cabinet can also participate in it.

The performance of the six subjects is reflected after the formation of the imperial edict, and the performance of the cabinet is reflected before the formation of the imperial edict.

According to the court practice, the edict drafted by the cabinet is in line with the canonical system. Therefore, if the cabinet unites and refuses to draft an edict for the emperor, in a sense, it can also achieve the effect of blocking the emperor.

However, this kind of behavior is essentially an act of resistance, and it requires the concerted efforts of all cabinet members, so until now, it has basically never happened.

As for the right to perform in the six subjects, it sounds good, but there are also serious restrictions.

First of all, although this kind of power is similar to the power of confiscation and refutation in the lower provinces of the Tang Dynasty, it is also commonly referred to as refusal and refutation in the court, but it is completely different in essence.

Menxia Province has the power of prime minister. The so-called refutation refers to the refusal of the imperial edict and re-draft by Zhongshu Province. This is the inherent right of Menxia Province and does not need to go through anyone, including the emperor.

However, the right to perform the six subjects can be seen from the name, which is essentially a right of review.

It means that the imperial edict is issued to the six departments, and the officials of the six departments will conduct a review and review to check whether there are omissions or irregularities.

If there is, the officials of the six subjects can not issue it temporarily, and go to the palace with the edict to report the situation, and ask the emperor whether he wants to make amendments. This is called playing.

During this process, the six departments performed the function of inspection and did not have the power to refute.

To put it bluntly, even if the decree is wrong and does not conform to the canonical system, the six subjects can only plead with the emperor to perform.

If the emperor insists on going his own way, the six subjects have no power to reject the imperial decree.

This is the first and the most essential limitation. Performing the performance can only delay the process of issuing the edict. As long as the emperor's will is firm enough, it cannot really stop the issuing of the edict.

In addition, the cost of using the right to perform is extremely high.

Although it is a request for review, but in essence, this is also an act of offending the imperial power. Therefore, once the right to perform is used, the official career of the official in charge of performing will inevitably come to an end.

Ordinary censors bluntly admonish, at most they will displease the emperor, and there is still a chance of recovery in the end, but once the right to perform is used, even if a new emperor succeeds, he will not appoint such a person again.

So, speaking of this, Zhu Yi actually understood what she meant.

"The emperor's general situation has now been achieved. The reform of science and Dao, and the tough attitude towards Yang Jie's matter are just a signal. This means that the emperor feels that the current control over the court has reached the level where he can act arbitrarily. "

"At this time, it is really unwise to go head-to-head with the emperor!"

Zhu Yi made a conclusion lightly, paused for a moment, then looked at Zhu Jian again, and said.

"Of course, if Mr. Zhu Ge allows Yu Shaobao to return to the capital overnight, or if he can convince a few officials to die on the spot tomorrow morning, then there is some possibility that the emperor will change his mind due to the situation. "

"Just, can it be done?"

Zhu Jian's lips moved, but he couldn't give an affirmative answer after all.

These two paths are obviously not feasible.

Not to mention Yu Qian, he is far away now, and it is impossible for him to return to Beijing. Moreover, even if he returns to Beijing, he may not necessarily fight against the emperor.

This is located in Shaobao, it has the guts, and it can persuade the emperor.

However, he is the emperor's man after all, and it is not known what Yu Qian's attitude is on the matter of the grassland.

As for death advice...

No one dared to die when the Supreme Emperor was on the conquest, let alone now?
Having said that, Zhu Jian had basically dismissed the thought in his mind, but when he saw Zhu Yi's face that deserved a beating, he couldn't help but get angry and said.

"So, according to the Lord's wishes, we should just keep silent and let the emperor decide what we want to do."

"I don't know these words, how dare the Duke of the country say it in front of the Supreme Emperor?"
