I am the king of the dead

Chapter 858 The Emperor Puts It All Together

Does Tang Xing know that he is very ashamed to marry such a woman because of the emperor's order?

of course I know.

When he was in the Wa country, Tang Xing could have chosen to end the game with a knife, then these things would not happen, and he would not lose face.

But at that time, Jinsanju was not an enemy, on the contrary, he had been helping Shanye Yuangong's various activities, and leaving the Muromachi Shogunate was even more straightforward, without any nostalgia.

Tang Xing can't do such things, a man walks between heaven and earth, open and upright, open-minded, since His Majesty wants the Muromachi Shogunate to lose the last pillar, Tang Xing can't use the sword, so he can only keep it for himself .

Tang Xing had a submissive heart, even though he knew that he would lose face, he also knew that His Majesty's imperial order was for Daming's benefit.

Tang Xing has been frequently working on maritime trade affairs since the establishment of the Mizhou Shipping Department. He is well aware of the significance of overseas silver entering the Ming Dynasty for Daming, so he does not regret it for the benefit of Daming.

Of course, there is nothing particularly dissatisfied about participating in this game, and this is also the key.

King Xiang also has a heart of obedience, and the manifestation of this heart of obedience is by no means verbal, but sincere.

He and Luo Bingzhong are from the same life, but whether it is the state supervisor, Guizhou patrol, or the current Wanghua Tatar, Daming needs a clan guard who can hold the place, and King Xiang is the only one who can take the title. The clan that got the shot.

In today's Daming Dynasty Hall, around His Majesty, whose core principle is the supremacy of the interests of the Ming Dynasty, a group of people with the same principles have gathered. This is the current situation of the Daming Dynasty Hall.

The obedience of Tang Xing and Zhu Zhanqian is naturally respectful to His Majesty, and even more so to Daming.

Therefore, Hu Wei always said that those ghosts and monsters are too impatient, since the sun is shining, they should hide, hide well, and wait until the sun goes down to make trouble.

In February of the 11th year of Jingtai, the triennial Chunwei began again. Amidst the din of gongs and drums, the examinees were searched and then entered the Gongyuan.

Compared with the previous ones, the Chunwei this time is probably a little fairer, because there is no need for various teachers to sell the test outlines everywhere, every student has seen the imperial list, and His Majesty has drawn the test points, and everyone is running hard for this.

It is obvious that His Majesty is promoting the Northern Expedition, but in the imperial examination, everyone is asked to oppose the war and put forward their own ideas on the Northern Expedition and the use of force.

This is not that the Ming emperor changed his previous style of Zhenwu, but for better Zhenwu, every objection will eventually be transformed into more adequate preparations under the lenient attitude of the enemy.

At Maoshi the next day, the big Han generals on the Chengtian Gate saw the emperor's car driving. Amidst the sound of drums, they opened the Chengtian Gate. They drove their jade rods into the Chengtian Gate and stopped in front of the Fengtian Hall. After that, many eunuchs and maids raised their canopies shade.

Zhu Qiyu got out of the car and walked into the Fengtian Hall, and then the four eunuchs carried out the throne and placed it on the platform.

After three blows of the net whip, the courtiers entered the court like geese lined up, and the first court meeting in February of the Ming Dynasty officially began.

Li Binyan, Chen Zongqing, Tang Xing and others are still in the capital. After this court meeting, they will set off and return to Songjiang Mansion.

Zhu Qiyu originally planned to keep the three of them in after Chunwei unveiled the list, but there were many and complicated affairs in the Songjiang Mansion, and the governors of the house were all in the capital, so the affairs of the Songjiang Mansion would be shelved.

And His Royal Highness King Xiang, King Chong, King Ji and the prince also rarely appeared in the court.

"See Your Majesty, long live your majesty, long live, long live." All the ministers saluted.

Zhu Qiyu stretched out his hand and said, "Be flat."

"Start playing if there is something to do, and leave the court if there is nothing to do." Xing'an said frustratingly with a flick of his whisk.

"Report to Your Majesty, I have a copy of the report." King Xiang came out and saluted respectfully with a wat board.

"Talk." Zhu Qiyu knew what King Xiang wanted to say, and the clan's court was reported by the clan's mansion.

"The minister who oversaw the case of Xiao Yu has been ordered by the emperor. The criminals who responded to the case were handed over to the Ministry of Punishment, and the file was transferred to Dali Temple. The Yongle Sword is bestowed on you. After today's work is over, your Majesty is requested to take it back." Before the temple, it has been handed over to General Dahan.

King Xiang came to court to apply for closing the case.

After His Majesty beheaded Xiao Xun, it has been two months since the accomplice was recovered, and now it is time to put an end to this case.

In addition to the beheading of Xiao Xun, a senior member of the second rank, Qian Pu, who was arrested in Hongxiu Zhao, was also implicated in Xiao Xun's case.

Xiao Yi, the right servant of the household department, heaved a sigh of relief, and finally let go of his hanging heart. The case of his unsatisfactory disciple Qian Pu did not involve him.

Xiao Yi also understood His Majesty's admonition that day, the disciples seem to be full of peaches and plums, but in this court, if the whole body is pulled, it will be a matter of time before they are implicated.

In the past, others accepted it. Everyone was a disciple and old official all over the world. It is inappropriate for you not to accept it.

It is not accepted now, if you accept it again, it will be inappropriate.

"Accurate." Zhu Qiyu Zhu approved the memorandum presented by Zhu Zhanqian, ending the big case of Xiao Zong that lasted for more than a year. This also laid a solid foundation for the Northern Expedition of the Ming Army. Sell ​​the lives of the soldiers.

Grasping the congratulatory badge on the wat board with one hand, he came out and said with a serious face: "Your Majesty, I impeach the right servant of the household department, Xiao Ying!"

"Xiao Yi's subordinates have no way to form a party for personal gain, and their failures make their virtues suffer. The minister impeached him for the crime of forming a party."

Xiao Ying shivered, what was supposed to come was coming after all!

His Majesty let him go, but the Procuratorate's eyes were on him, how could he easily let him go?
There are rules for the impeachment of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Most of the impeachment by the imperial censor in person will last until death. Once the impeachment is over, if you want to test His Majesty's will, it is the capital censor or supervisory censor who will come forward.

For example, when Li Binyan impeached Zhao Hui, the captain-in-law, it was just a test.

Obviously, the Metropolitan Procuratorate does not intend to let Xiao Yi go.

Xiao Yi came out tremblingly, knelt on the ground, and said with a sigh: "I am guilty."

He didn't quibble, because it was the fact that Qian Pu was still locked up in prison, and the crime of deceiving the emperor by disturbing Shengjia and telling lies in front of His Majesty could be discussed, but Qian Pu violated the national law, and the evidence was solid.

Zhu Qiyu sat up straight, didn't look at Xiao Yi who was kneeling on the ground, but said to He Zhang in a half-consulting tone: "The Censor of Zuodu, I thought that although Xiao Yi and Qian Pu, the right servants of the household department, were named Master and apprentice, it's just a bad habit in the past, Xiao Yisu, the right servant of the household department, has no mistakes, handles things decently, has no corruption, and is diligent."

"Your Majesty!" He Zhang said loudly: "Nowadays, the door of the Gongyuan is locked, and the scholars of the world have been studying hard for ten years, only for the world to know. If such a faction prevails in the court without punishment, wouldn't it be To chill the hearts of scholars in the world?"

Zhu Qiyu's eyes turned to the Ministry of Rites, the position of Minister of Rites is now Yao Kui, and Liu Ji who is eager to try.

Usually at times like this, Hu Wei would stand up and say a few words about etiquette, how inconvenient is it?

Liu Ji saw His Majesty, and immediately stood up and said to He Zhang: "He Zhang, Your Majesty is lenient and strict, and has his own sacred will. How can you be the one to comment on the appointment and dismissal of Beijing officials?"

"That's what my Metropolitan Procuratorate does! If you don't like it, you can do it?" He Zhang snorted and retorted.

Zhu Qiyu could tell at a glance that the current Liu Ji was still too young, and he was not He Zhang's opponent at all.

With He Zhang's miraculous achievement card in his hand, and in Fengtian Hall, he is naturally not afraid of Liu Ji's shamelessness.

After all, He Zhang has been tempered a lot, and even lost his right arm when he went outside the Great Wall. He Zhang is not Hu Wei's opponent, but it doesn't mean that He Zhang is a soft persimmon.

Liu Ji wanted to speak again, but Zhu Qiyu waved his hand, motioning for Liu Ji to return.

"He Zongxian, I'm asking Xiao Yi for a personal relationship, and forgive me this time." Zhu Qiyu said in a very gentle tone: "The anti-corruption office has checked for a long time, and Xiao Yi has no corruption. I think it can still be used. As for If there is such a chaotic situation like master-student status again in the future, if the Metropolitan Procuratorate impeaches me again, I will not forgive me?"

"Written in the "96 Articles of the Constitution and Matters", there will be laws to follow for impeachment from now on. I don't know what Zongxian He thinks?"

In the past, there was no rule that prohibited officials from the DPRK and China from being invited as masters, but from today, there are.

He Zhang still seemed a little dissatisfied, but after all he bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

"That's good, let's put it back together." Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "Aiqing's handwriting with her left hand is getting better and better. The style of this pavilion is no longer inferior to what it used to be."

"Your Majesty praises it, but I'm terrified." He Zhang returned to his seat.

Xiao Yan knelt on the ground, weeping uncontrollably. He never expected that His Majesty would protect him.

"Xiao Yi, you also saw it today. I also discussed it with Mr. He. In the future, don't make it difficult for me. Well, get up. I have always known your virtue, which is different from that of Qian Pu."

"Get up." Zhu Qiyu's tone was also very gentle.

Xiao Yi bowed three times and kowtowed five times, and shouted loudly: "I kowtow to thank God."

Yu Qian, on the other hand, sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, looking at his nose, nose, and heart, as if he was asleep. When it was time to pretend to be confused, he had to pretend to be confused. When it was time to cooperate with His Majesty in acting, don't turn a blind eye.

Yu Qian's heart is like a mirror, if He Zhang's impeachment did not get through with His Majesty, he would write Yu Qian's name upside down.

This is a play of red and white faces that has been negotiated, He Zhang plays the villain, and His Majesty plays the good person.

The two monarchs and ministers just wrote down the prohibition of forming a party between teachers and teachers into the "Constitution" regarding Xiao Yi's matter.

The only ones who can understand this are Yu Qian and these six Minggongs. No one speaks. In fact, they have more or less guessed His Majesty's intention to secretly hide Chen Cang. When the courtiers come to think about it, it has become an established fact.

He Zhang was sweating while holding the wat board, talking loudly to His Majesty, even if it was discussed in advance, would require a lot of courage, it would be fine if His Majesty got angry, the more gentle His Majesty spoke, the more afraid he would be.

Fortunately, things worked out.

In the future, if there is friendship between teachers and teachers in the court, then the "Gang Xian" can be invited.

"Yu Shangshu, officials in the court are not allowed to be teachers of scholars, can it be written in "Gangxian"?" Zhu Qiyu looked at Yu Shiyue again.

Yu Shiyue came out of the row and said, "It's not impossible, I think it's good."

Yu Shiyue, as one of the six ministers who has never been changed in Jing Tainian, still has his eyesight, and what His Majesty wants to do is never Xiao Yi.

"What do you Minggongs think?" Zhu Qiyu looked at the others and asked.

"Your Majesty is wise." Yu Qian opened his eyes and said with his head bowed.

"Your Majesty is holy." When all the ministers shouted, they finally came to their senses.

But if you object at this time, you will offend the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Your Majesty, and Yu Qian who took the lead in calling Shengming.

"Your Majesty, I still invite you, and I invite you to the clan. Anyone who has no children can ask for a successor. Only when a child is eight years old can he ask for a name, and a girl can only be granted a title when she is 15 years old. It is a rule." Zhu Zhanqian It has not been listed, and has been waiting for the play directed and acted by His Majesty to be completed, and then calmly expressed his appeal.

This seemingly simple statute is an out-and-out reduction of feudal clans.

What King Xiang meant was that within the imperial clan, only those who have no children can be allowed to ask for a successor. That is to say, in the Daming Law, the legal provisions about concubines at the age of 40 who have no children will be generally applicable to the Ming clan from the civil society.

Before this, there were many wives and concubines in many palaces, raising tens of thousands of actors. Even when King Xiang was in Prince Xiang's mansion, he also raised a lot of actors.

The law of the Ming Dynasty has a restrictive effect on the clan, nobles, and officials. For example, slaves were banned in the Ming Dynasty. These clans, nobles, and officials can only get some servants in the name of their families.

This detour seems to be a detour to avoid the law, but it is also the same as family inheritance, and there are more detours to be detoured. This detour is not uncommon.

A step-wife can only be named at the age of eight, and a daughter can only be granted a title when she is an adult.

This is an extension of the raid system.

King Xiang is busy with official duties, he can't support actors, and naturally other clans can't support them either!

Of course, King Xiang's idea was also communicated with Zhu Qiyu. In fact, the main purpose is to limit the number of concubines, step-wives, and heirs, so as to limit the number of clans.

The litters of pigs in Daming are too capable of giving birth. If there are too many pigs, Daming will be eaten up. In the past, the clan used to eat the land, but now it eats the court.

The imperial court complained endlessly, and the internal funds were even more desperate. The surrender system was implemented, and the restriction of the clan's concubines was the icing on the cake.

If the clan disobeyed the order to take a concubine, the concubine would have no status, let alone a concubine, and naturally the imperial court would not support her.

This is equivalent to saying that it is delusional for those concubines with a large number of concubines to have children in this palace in the future.

The blue veins on Shen Yi's forehead trembled twice, the Minister of the Household Department, he was so serious that he didn't dare to suggest such a thing, the two uncles and nephews combined up such a shameful trick, it really made Shen Yi feel ashamed.

When it comes to frugality, it depends on His Majesty.

When Shen Yi was Mu Yang Bo Jin Lianzuo, Jin Lian was talking to the teacher, Daming had two household ministers, one was in the household department and the other was on the throne.

Shameful?It's not actually bad.

When the clan gathered in the capital, Daming saw clearly and concretely the huge number of thriving clan from top to bottom.

Sons give birth to grandchildren, and grandchildren give birth to sons, there is no end to it, it is literally a sea of ​​people.

　Ask for a monthly ticket, woohoo! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !If you don't vote, it will expire!
