Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 2058 Zhengguoben ([-]) Life-saving Straw
"Seeking the truth, then tell me." This sentence seems to be casual, but in fact the word "seeking the truth" has already expressed Zhu Yijun's emotions at the moment.

It stands to reason that the emperor's more formal address for Gao Yushi should be something like "Gao Aiqing", which can well reflect the separation of monarchs and ministers; if you want to be more intimate, then the name "Rixin" will do. When speaking to the emperor, he also called Gao Yushi in this way.

But Zhu Yijun didn't, and called it "Seeking the Truth".Seeking the truth, this is a highly pragmatic word. Generally speaking, it should be used to address each other when people of the same generation have similar identities.

Characters originated in the Shang Dynasty, prevailed in the Zhou Dynasty, and later formed a system.Until modern times, it is still used by many people in the intellectual and cultural circles, such as Sun Zizai, and Mr. Mao... Mr. Runzhi.In modern times, it is rarely used by people. However, due to the large population of later generations in China, the incidence of the same name and surname is too high. There is also a view in the cultural circles that it is recommended to restore the table character system, which will not be repeated here.

As mentioned earlier, in ancient China, due to the special emphasis on etiquette, the names and characters have always been very particular.In interpersonal communication, the first name is generally used as a modest, humble, or upper-to-lower, long-to-short address.

For example, Gao Gong can call Gao Yushi by his first name, and theoretically, the emperor can call everyone by his first name except the first emperor and the empress dowager—of course, most emperors may not do this most of the time, especially for those with higher status. Minister.

Among peers, they usually call each other by name only when they are very familiar with each other. In most cases, it is considered impolite to mention each other or call them by their first names directly.

Of course, there are exceptions to the above situation. For example, the combination of names and characters is often used to show respect.There are two situations worth noting here:

The first situation is that in the pre-Qin period, when the name and the character were called together, the character should be first and then the name.For example: Kongfu Jia, this is the ancestor of Confucius in the Song Dynasty. Among them, "Kongfu" is a character, "Jia" is a given name, and the surname is "Zi" [Note: Confucius is actually surnamed Zi, Kong is his family , no explanation here].Another example: Bai Yibing, this is the son of Uncle Jian, where "Bing" is the first name, "Bai Yi" is the character, and the surname is "Jian".

The second situation is that after the Han Dynasty, when the names were called consecutively, "name" first and then "character".For example: "Kong Rong Wen Ju of Lu State, Chen Lin Kong Zhang of Guangling, Shanyang Wang Can Zhongxuan, Beihai Xu Qianwei, Chen Liuruan Yu Yuanyu, Runan Yingchang Dejin, Dongping Liu Zhen's public affairs..."

This is a passage in Cao Pi's "Dian Lun · Dissertation".

In fact, Zhu Yijun often changes his address for Gao Yushi on different occasions. For example, in large public places, he usually calls him "Gao Aiqing", "Nanning Hou" and so on; ; If the two of them had a face-to-face meeting without other people, Zhu Yijun would even directly address him as "practice" - it should be noted here that he is not calling his name rudely, but calling him by his first name kindly, in order to reflect the intimacy of the relationship between the two , If it were someone else, they wouldn't be treated like this.

Theoretically, when the two of them meet alone, considering their relationship, the most common address is actually "Seeking the Truth" - the verbal distance is neither far nor close.

In the presence of Wang Jiaping, the chief assistant of the cabinet, and at the same time when discussing state affairs, Zhu Yijun called Gao Pragmatism "seeking truth", and there was an obvious deliberation in it.It means: You Wang Jiaping is only the first assistant, but "seeking the truth" is not just the old man, he is also my classmate and Fa Xiao.He is my own person, you are not.

The emperor put on such an attitude, if it was an ordinary time, Wang Jiaping should consider whether his words and deeds just now were too radical and reflect on it.However, to Zhu Yijun's disappointment, Wang Jiaping's expression was indifferent, and he took a step back expressionlessly, but stretched out his hand to Gao Wushi to make a false allusion, meaning to invite him to speak.

Zhu Yijun frowned subconsciously, as if he was thinking about something, and at the same time, his eyes were not idle, and he took a pragmatic look at Gao.According to his understanding of Gao Yushi, if Gao Yushi intends to protect Wang Jiaping, he should take some measures at this time to attract his attention, so as to downplay his dissatisfaction with Wang Jiaping.

However, an accident happened again, and Gao Wushi didn't seem to understand the subtle change just now. He just nodded seriously at Wang Jiaping, responding to his gesture, then bowed his hands to Zhu Yijun, cleared his throat, and began to introduce him to North Korea. Save yourself a sense of urgency.

What Gao Yushi introduced was exactly what he had just said to Wang Jiaping, only in more detail and clarity.While listening to what he said, Zhu Yijun replayed Wang Jiaping and Gao Yushi's performance just now in his mind, always feeling that something was wrong.But he really didn't expect that Wang Jiaping had misunderstood his actions today and planned to retire early.

Since he really couldn't figure it out, Zhu Yijun had no choice but to put aside the calculations in his mind and listen carefully to the highly pragmatic plan.

The plan was very comprehensive and complete, just like Gao Yushi's usual level, Zhu Yijun had nothing to add or change after listening to it from the beginning to the end. He just felt that everything Gao Yushi said was exactly what he wanted, and he couldn't help being extremely satisfied, and said with a smile : "Seeking the truth, what I said is in line with my wishes, and there is nothing to change, then... well, if Yuanfu has no objection, I think we can do it like this."

Wang Jiaping cupped his hands indifferently: "The veteran has no objection."

Zhu Yijun nodded, waved his hand at Chen Ju, and said: "The supervisor of ceremonies will draft the imperial edict according to what Old Man Gao Ge said just now. If there is something that is unclear, he will send someone to the cabinet to inquire. Words shall prevail, there is no need to report again."

Chen Ju took the decree and didn't say much.

The business matter was over so soon, Zhu Yijun was a little lost for a moment, wondering if he should say something to avoid the silence.However, he changed his mind and felt a little annoyed. Why should I, the emperor, take the initiative to avoid the silence? Isn't it the two of you who should take the initiative?

This hesitation is really cold.In the end, Gao Wushi couldn't stand it any longer, coughed lightly, and said, "By the way, Your Majesty, President Xiao and Factory Governor Wang should have already started investigating the 'medicated diet case' today. Rectify your name and clear your suspicions."

Clearing up the suspicion is of course just a matter of appearances. Gao Yushi can't say that if the investigation continues, he will find and convict Concubine Zheng, can he?Zhu Yijun also knew that this was just a rhetorical trick, and he and Gao Yushi knew the details of the inside story, so he nodded lightly without anger or joy: "Well, very good."

Originally, he didn't want to say more, but he suddenly realized that if he just responded like this, it seemed that he would talk to death again, so he added: "This matter is not small, and both the inner court and the outer court pay close attention to it, so it should not be ignored. Mr. Yuanfu is in charge of the world, and he manages a lot of things every day, so it's rare to be distracted, so this matter... Be honest, you should take care of it more, and don't make any mistakes."

Gao Wushi cupped his hands and said, "I obey the order."

For Gao Yushi, it would be better to have Zhu Yijun's words.It means that in addition to the joint action of the inner court, the outer court, the Dongchang and the Metropolitan Procuratorate for the thorough investigation of the "medicine diet case", he has also been supervised by him on behalf of the emperor and the cabinet.

According to Ming's practice, the power of supervision often becomes the power of execution, or at least has the ability to intervene in the execution, thus often overpowering the power of execution and becoming the dominant one.Now that Zhu Yijun said this, high pragmatism is equivalent to gaining the decision-making power to thoroughly investigate the medicinal diet case to a large extent. I don't know if Zhu Yijun did it on purpose or just didn't pay attention.

Just when the topic was coming to an end, suddenly a eunuch in charge of ceremonies outside secretly gestured to Chen Ju, but this "secret" didn't seem to intend to hide it from Zhu Yijun, so Zhu Yijun also noticed it.

Doing this in front of the emperor is not because the inspector of ceremonies is an idiot. Everyone knows that the inspector of ceremonies has an emergency to report. However, although the situation is urgent, it is not to the point where the emperor must be reported immediately. , before it was too late to report to the supervisor of ceremonies.

Zhu Yijun signaled to Chen Ju to ask, Chen Ju pleaded guilty, left the Xinuang Pavilion, listened to the eunuch's report at the door, and soon entered again.

Chen Ju didn't wait for Zhu Yijun to ask questions, and stepped forward and said: "My lord, Elder Shen Ge led more than [-] officials from various ministries and the Metropolitan Procuratorate to go to the evacuation temporarily."

Zhu Yijun was startled for a moment, then frowned quickly, and said, "Temporary evacuation? Hmph, is this the medicinal diet case, or the Huai'an private salt tax case?"

Chen Ju raised his head, with a strange expression on his face, he hesitated for a moment before saying: "Neither of them, Mr. Shen Ge and the others invited the emperor to enshrine Chan Taishan."

As soon as this remark came out, not only Wang Jiaping and Gao Wushi were stunned, but Zhu Yijun himself was also stunned.

This time was different from the past, Wang Jiaping actually reacted faster, he immediately said: "Feng Chan? What the hell did Shen Jiaomen do, what reason did he propose Feng Chan?"

Chen Ju bowed slightly to him, and said: "I would like to teach Yuanfu to know. Shen Ge always said that the emperor's life and death will never continue. He saved the feudal state and brought Korea back to China. He won three thousand miles without conquest. These are the two saints of virtue and deeds. Today. The establishment of a province in Korea and the appointment of the new king as feudal vassals are all decided, and they should be proclaimed to the world through Feng Zen."

Wang Jiaping remained silent for a while, shaking his head and said: "If we say that the first battle of Korea was indeed an act of helping the crisis, the attachment of Korea is also the joy of the people's hearts. By residual yuan.

That being the case, after the extermination of the Remnant Yuan, my emperor still behaved modestly, and never made a move to enshrine Zen. Now the acceptance of North Korea is not as good as in the past, how can he emulate this instead? "

Wang Jiaping's words are obviously a matter of fact. For Ming, winning North Korea—no matter how it is won, will not be as important as getting Chahar. This is a great victory that proves that the orthodoxy of the world is in Ming Dynasty.

Well, since you defeated Chahar and forced Chahar to flee thousands of miles west without doing Fengchan, how can you be worthy of Fengchan now that you have won North Korea?It's just ridiculous.

However, after Wang Jiaping said this, Zhu Yijun on the throne did not speak, but stared straight at the memorial in Chen Ju's hand, not knowing what he was thinking.

Gao Wushi saw it clearly, and couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring: Unexpectedly, the memorial sent from North Korea today became Shen's consistent life-saving straw, this old boy really has some skills!This matter...is not easy to handle.
