Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 1312 Unfamiliar

The biggest difference between Shen Shixing and other officials is not that he is the chief assistant and has a much higher status, but that Shen Shixing has been in charge of the "Tongzhijing Banquet" since the emperor was still the prince. Know far more than other officials in the same faction.

With Zhijing Banquet, a simple analogy is equivalent to the deputy head teacher of later generations.The "head teachers" of His Royal Highness at the time were Gao Gong and Zhu Xizhong—of course, this was set up to show that the prince needs both civil and military skills. In fact, Zhu Xizhong was just a name, and the real "head teacher" was Gao Gong.

However, at that time, Gao Gong was the chief assistant of the cabinet and concurrently the secretary of the Ministry of officials. The handling of government affairs alone was already extremely heavy. How could he really perform the duties of "knowing the scriptures"?He is great because he has mastered the general direction, and the actual work can only be left to Shen Shixing, who was the Minister of Rites at the time.

In other words, Shen Shixing was the "deputy head teacher acting head teacher" at that time, and the "emperor teacher" who knew Zhu Yijun best.

In terms of grasping Zhu Yijun's thought dynamics, behavioral habits, etc., the person who can rank first in the world is Gao Pragmatic, and he is closely followed by Shen Shixing.

Zhu Yijun's habits of employing people are not only well known by Gao Yushi, but also by Shen Yuanfu.For his trusted courtiers, Zhu Yijun is "very easy to talk" at any time; he can also give all-round support to his trusted courtiers to do things-unless you can mess things up with this kind of support, But that's another story.

When it comes to Gao Yushi's matter this time, Zhu Yijun himself is likely to express his support, because Gao Yushi's Minister of the Household Department was originally "declared" and proposed by him. Therefore, it is not easy to persuade him to come forward to stop Gao Yushi at this time, and Shen Shixing's memorial of "discussing the matter as it stands" is for this purpose.

But these officials didn't know the severity, and even found the wrong breakthrough.

With Zhu Yijun's trust in Gao Yushi, what's wrong with you slandering Gao Yushi? Do you want to slander him and slander the emperor?
Oh, you said that you impeached Gao Yushi for slandering the later emperor instead of Jinshang, then I have to ask, who is the later emperor?The emperor is not even willing to stand up as the crown prince now, do you expect the emperor to care about this now?
What's more, what is Gao Wuzhen's current position?
Hubu Shangshu?Yes, that's right, but... what else?

He is the prince and grand master!Don't you just think of adding a title as a black hat?
He is the prince and grand teacher, and even criticizing the prince is a duty and a serious matter. Is there any problem in mentioning in the memorial that he is worried about the future education of the princes?

There are many words in this world, A can say but B can't, it's perfectly normal.It's like you are a father, you can humbly call your son a "dog", but if someone comes and says your son is a "dog", don't you want to break his leg in anger?
Therefore, it is not a problem for Gao Wushi to say this with the hat of a prince and grand teacher. If he has to say yes, he can only say it when he has completely lost his holy family, because that time is like before Yan Song fell from power. ——The emperor is tired of crooked, and he doesn't want to see him at all.

However, has Gao Wushi lost his family?Is the emperor tired of him?

No.Not only not, in fact, it can be seen from the fact that the emperor personally appointed him as the Minister of the Household Department that the emperor's dependence on him is actually even higher.

Shen Shixing is very clear about where the pressure comes from as the contemporary party leader of the Mind School: His Majesty the young emperor is obsessed with completing the unfinished business of his second ancestors, destroying the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty, eliminating the last military threat in northern Xinjiang, mixing the world, and being in China. Rule all nations.

However, to achieve this goal, the most important things boil down to two points: military power and financial power.

Military strength is not only military strength, but also includes equipment, morale, training, generals, logistics and other aspects.Looking at the Ming Dynasty, Xuanda and Jiliao are the "two wings of the capital" that most meet these requirements. Among the essence of these two wings, except for one subordinate of Li Chengliang, almost all of them are highly pragmatic direct descendants or Collateral forces.

Coupled with the fact that Gao Yushi himself has won several battles, he has already made great achievements in battle and has a great reputation. If he is not used in the "decisive battle", who will he use?Could it be that the emperor will use me, Shen Shixing, to lead the troops?

It can even be said this way: If the emperor does not send Gao Yushi to fight this battle, whoever he appoints will inevitably be dissatisfied, and even that person himself may not dare to accept this order!
The "hope" of civil officials can be cultivated, but the "hope" of Wen Shuai can only be cultivated!

Xi Xie'an seemed calm when he said that "the younger generation has defeated the enemy", but when his friend left in surprise, he stumbled on the threshold and almost fell when he went out by himself.

Explain what?It shows that with Xie An's status and prestige at the time, when there is no decisive victory in hand, he is not so supportive in his heart!Only when this big victory is securely won, can it be regarded as the real White Jade Pillar of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Zijin Liang of the Sea.

But what about high pragmatism?Although he was also a very unique existence in Daming, his prestige among civil servants must still be inferior to that of Xie An at that time.However, if it is just about the use of troops, he is more confident than Xie An before the Battle of Feishui.

Ask yourself, even if he is Shen Shixing, he has too much trust in his ability to use troops pragmatically.As the biggest "opposition" is the case, others needless to say.

Therefore, on the point of "military power", the emperor must have high hopes for Gao Yushi. To use the emperor's words to appease Gao Yushi after Gao Yushi was impeached several times before, that is "I rely on him deeply".

Originally, if such an important point was occupied by Gao Pragmatism, his position was already very stable. The ancients said that "the rabbit is dead and the dog is cooking" and "the bird is dead and the bow is hidden". It is impossible to shake, which has already made Shen Shihang feel very difficult.

But something more troublesome happened: the emperor believed that the high pragmatism was not only unmatched in war, but also in financial management, so when the biggest trouble at present changed from military to financial management, he actually seized the opportunity to "use "Grand rewards in exchange for promotion" directly pushed Gao Yushi, who was only 25 years old, to the key position of Minister of the Household Department.

In all fairness, Shen Shixing also felt that Gao Wu must be very good at financial management—this is nonsense, if you look at Jinghua, you will know that it is not a "skilled hand", but a "skilled hand"!

However, the fixed thinking for many years still makes Shen Shixing suspect that it may be no problem to use high-level practical means to "regulate the family", but it is not necessarily so reliable to use it to govern the country.

Although Shen Shihang, a highly pragmatic "buyer and sellr", is not well-known, the general situation is still somewhat known: Jinghua almost never buys land when buying land, but only buys mines, coal fields or seaport commercial land. This is actually a misunderstanding. Annan and other countries in southern Xinjiang now have a lot of land, but Shen Shixing doesn't understand it.

Shen Shixing believes that this means that Gao Pragmatism not only does not value agriculture in his heart, but may even despise agriculture.Don't look at what he said in "Qiyong Shu" that "without scholars, the country will be unclear, without agriculture, the country will be unstable, without industry, the country will not be strong, and without business, the country will not be rich." In fact, what this guy really values ​​​​is work. ,business.

Just look at Jinghua and you will know that he made his fortune through industry and commerce!

Although Shen Shihang thinks that Gao Yushi's position is very distorted. He clearly depends on the industry and commerce for his fortune, but still wants to collect taxes on both sides of the industry and commerce.

However, you would rather pay more taxes for the sake of your own favor, so why do you expect everyone else to be like you in Jinghua?You know that you are a real "storage", is it true that everyone else is also a storage?

Of course, there is no need to think too much about this for the time being. Anyway, Gao Yushi has even submitted the memorial. It is better to hope to change the emperor's mind than to change his mind. At least the emperor has not expressed his position yet, and there is still a chance to fight for it.

It’s just that, as mentioned above, the emperor’s top priority is to destroy the ruined Yuan, and he has to rely heavily on high pragmatism in the military. He is still pinning his financial management hopes on high pragmatism. Difficult.

However, Shen Shixing still feels that, unlike the high pragmatism in the military, which is already in a position that no one can compete with, even if he has Jinghua as a card in finance, he has not yet reached that point, and he can still strive for it.

On the front, it can be said that he is light on farmers, and on the other hand, it can be said that his plan is not feasible. All of these can be tried, but it is meaningless and even counterproductive to call him a traitor and slander the monarch.

Shen Shixing looked at a bunch of memorials submitted by officials of the Heart School who had found the wrong breakthrough, and was silent for a while, already thinking about how to make it up.

These memorials were submitted publicly, and they originally wanted to create a situation where "the court is overpowering" and Zhu Yijun had to consider the threat of "public opinion".However, it has now become troublesome—no one can force the public memorial, especially the cabinet, because after the memorial passes through the Secretary of General Administration, it is equivalent to that everyone in the world can know it.

This situation is different from some power eunuchs who deceived the emperor. The reason why the power eunuchs deceived the emperor was that the power eunuchs could completely control the supervisor of ceremonies, and he only needed to keep the emperor in the dark. From the perspective of "difficulty of operation" It's not very high, but the risk is relatively high - most of the accidents will be liquidated.

The cabinet does not have this ability, because the hierarchy of the civil service group is more complicated and there are too many institutions, any leak in any link will cause a big disturbance.Moreover, Shen Shixing is not a powerful official who can overwhelm the sky with one hand - even Yan Song doesn't have that ability, let alone Shen Shihang?

So it is very troublesome for Shen Shixing to restore it now. First of all, as the chief assistant, he also happens to be the cabinet minister who wrote today. He has to draft all these memorials—there are some memorials that do not require drafting, such as only involving the family affairs of the Tian family. Or if it only involves the emperor himself, the cabinet does not need to make a draft, but just forward it directly.

Now these are not of this type, so Shishi Bank has to vote for them.If you want to draft a ticket, then Shenshihang has to show an attitude no matter what - even if you practice Tai Chi, that is an attitude.

However, what kind of attitude should be expressed?Shi Shihang felt very embarrassed.

It is undoubtedly the most stupid to agree with these statements. The reason has been mentioned just now. It will only make the emperor who deeply relies on high pragmatism feel that the School of Mind is making trouble for no reason.If Shen Shixing also expressed his approval, the emperor might even think that Shen Yuanfu had completely lost his impartiality and was no longer a prime minister who was supposed to "regulate yin and yang". This kind of holy will is completely fatal to him .

It does not seem to be the best choice to explicitly oppose these statements. This will make outsiders think that there are huge contradictions within the School of Mind, so that the lower-level censors began to openly challenge the top-level elders and even the first assistant, or the first assistant. The lower echelons within the faction are out of control.

Either way, it's a political disaster.

And there is one more thing that Shen Shixing will never dare to ignore, that is, Shen Li has changed to be the censor of Zuodu, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which is one of the "base camps" of the Mind School, must now be vigilant against the "backlash" of the Real School How could he, the chief assistant, still have trouble with his own speech officer at this time?If you really want to do this, it's time for loved ones to hurt enemies.

I can't agree with it, and I can't disagree with it. It seems that I can only practice Tai Chi.

However, Tai Chi is not reliable.So many people go to court to impeach Gao Yushi for "slandering the emperor". If the emperor does not make a clear statement to severely reprimand or even punish these people, Gao Yushi will definitely resign at the meeting, and then it will be the emperor's turn to sit down— The current goals, plans, and even the actual dominance are all manipulated by the uncle and nephew of the Gao family.If Gao Yushi pats his butt and leaves now, what will the emperor do?
Do you still want to do these things? If you do it, you may not find a suitable candidate. If you don't do it, where will you save your face?

Therefore, the emperor's attitude is completely predictable. He must be high and pragmatic, because to be high and pragmatic is to protect himself.

This is also the main reason why Shen Shixing does not advocate the impeachment of Gao Yushi: you can oppose his proposal, but to engage him is a complete death, because the former is the emperor who has not expressed his consent, and the latter... is equivalent to letting the emperor openly slap him .

Even Mu Zong is unwilling to do this matter, do you expect to be willing to do it today?I thought it was the time when the two palaces were regents?

So Shen Shixing sat for a long time, thinking about it, and found that he could only stand with the emperor to oppose, but he had to be very careful with his words, and he must minimize the influence as much as possible.

In the legal terminology of later generations, it is roughly equivalent to "defense of less guilt" - you are wrong to say that, but your feelings are understandable, and the problem is not very serious, so... let's not make an example!

Shen Yuanfu finally made up his mind, studied ink himself, picked up a pen, and meticulously wrote a paragraph in Taige style on a draft of the impeachment of the high-level pragmatic "slander".

"What Gao Yushi said before, the matter is serious. Ercao is eager to maintain the ancestral system, and his feelings are sympathetic. However, he suddenly slanders the emperor, which is really alarmist. Don't listen to it."
