Chapter 1034 The Means of Keeping People

Another tragic confrontation between North Korea and China began.

The initiator this time is Yang Yiqing.

But Zhu Hao, who was the central figure in the vortex, just cared about the matter in front of him like a normal person.

Zhang Zuo specially went to find Yang Yiqing, and wanted to "point out" him, mainly to tell him clearly and unambiguously that you can touch anyone, just don't make things difficult for Zhu Hao.

Zhu Hao is the most trusted minister in today's world. If you target him, you have violated the emperor's rebellion.

Yang Yiqing was quite polite to Zhang Zuo.

The chief inspector of ceremonies is in charge of the eunuch, a dignified interior minister, no matter who he is, he has to curry favor with him, and Yang Yiqing's ambition is definitely not just to be a minister of officials.

He wanted to be the leader of civil servants.

Yang Yiqing said: "Eunuch Zhang, dare to ask, is Zhu Hao enough for His Majesty to govern the world?"

Zhang Zuo heard that Yang Yiqing was questioning him, and it seemed that the new Minister of the Ministry of Officials had a big opinion on the emperor's use of Zhu Hao.

Zhang Zuo shook his head: "Naturally not enough."

Yang Yiqing pointed in the direction of the imperial palace: "If you want the stability of the world, do you have to rely on the ministers? Compared with the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, how important is one person?"

"Ha ha."

Zhang Zuo didn't know what to say.

In fact, Zhang Zuo was also a discerning person, and he could tell that Yang Yiqing was not a young man, since he dared to return to the imperial court to be the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, he should have thought of all possible things that might happen.

But no matter what, Yang Yiqing would not benefit at all from having a bad relationship with the emperor.

"Yang Butang, let's put it this way, officials in the court are important, but in His Majesty's mind, there are always people who are biased. If you rely heavily on the elders and the department hall, then what Yang Butang did today will not Our family has nothing to say. But the person His Majesty relies on is obviously that Zhu Shilang, doesn't Yang Butang think more about his future official position?"

Who tells you who is more important?
Even if you all add up, Zhu Hao may not be as important in the eyes of the emperor. Of course, when it comes to specific governance, your concerted efforts are indispensable.

In fact, our family is embarrassed to say that your ability to govern the country may not be comparable to Zhu Hao. Otherwise, how did Yang Tinghe and Jiang Mian retreat before?
Yang Yiqing nodded: "It seems that this old man should not return to court."

Zhang Zuo began to feel confused.

Is Yang Yiqing so stubborn?
Don't even understand the basics of judging the situation?

It's fine if you don't understand, but now the emperor sent someone to tell you, you are still so obsessed with it, it seems that you have a big opinion on the emperor and Zhu Hao.

That being the case, why are you still coming back?

Just to show the loyalty of your veterans from the four dynasties?
Zhang Zuo said: "Then...Yang Butang, do you understand what His Majesty means?"

"clear."

Yang Yiqing said, "But it is absolutely impossible for the old man to take back the decision he made before. Please report back to Your Majesty, the old minister is dedicated to the imperial court and has absolutely no selfish intentions."

……

……

"He... is he trying to challenge me?"

After hearing Zhang Zuo's report, Zhu Si almost smashed everything in front of him.

I have seen ignorant people, I have never seen such ignorant people, I sent someone to tell you with good intentions, how dare you challenge the special envoy sent by the emperor?

Zhu Si still complained non-stop: "...does he regard himself as Yang Jiefu? They are all surnamed Yang. He thinks he should inherit Yang Jiefu's will and fight against me to the end? He doesn't know why I called him this time. Come back? Could it be that his own reputation as an official is more important than carrying out my orders?"

A good pass to complain.

Zhang Zuo could tell that the new Minister of the Ministry of Officials was very disliked by the emperor.

Zhang Zuo said: "Actually, I didn't even want to understand why he insisted so much. It stands to reason...Mr. Zhu didn't offend him."

Zhu Si couldn't help frowning when he heard the words: "There is no reaction from Jingdao?"

"Yes...no response."

Zhang Zuo also became puzzled.

Yang Yiqing bombarded Zhu Hao indiscriminately, but Zhu Hao didn't take it seriously at all, and he didn't go to the court. Because of old age or sickness, simply because...don't want to go.

It seems to be the same as deliberately trying to make a statement.

Zhu Sidao: "Let me think about it, are they colluding?"

Zhang Zuo was shocked when he heard the words, and quickly said: "Your Majesty, it should not be like this."

"Otherwise, how would you explain Jingdao's reaction?"

Zhu Si continued to ponder, and murmured, "Perhaps the condition for Jingdao to let Yang Yingning return to court is to allow him to do things according to his own ideas. Reciprocity is the most important thing in Jingdao's actions, which means that if you respect me a foot, I will respect you. If you dare to offend me, then I will never let you go... and this time Jingdao's reaction was too calm."

Zhang Zuo asked tentatively: "That is to say, it is Mr. Zhu himself who wants to retire?"

Zhu Si glared at him, and said: "Who said that Jing Dao wants to retire? Even the surname Yang not only asked Jing Dao to step down as a servant? Actually, when I think about it, it seems to be nothing."

"what?"

Zhang Zuo was taken aback.

Forgot who it was, when you mentioned Yang Yiqing earlier, you were trembling with anger, right?
Now I feel that Yang Yiqing's memorial proposal is nothing?
Your Majesty, are you so cheeky now?

Zhu Sidao: "In that case, the position of the left servant of the Ministry of Industry has been removed from the position of Jing Dao! Isn't the position of the Hanlin Bachelor vacant? Let Jing Dao take the top! In this way, Jing Dao is the right servant of the Ministry of Rites and a Hanlin Bachelor. This official position should conform to the rules, right?"

Zhang Zuo thought about it and nodded.

Zhu Si's proposal this time is much more reliable than being the servant of two departments.

Whether it is Guozijian Jijiu, or Hanlin Bachelor, Attendant Bachelor, etc., it is feasible to be the right servant of the Ministry of Rites. There are many precedents to be found in the past.

Zhu Si thought for a while, and then said: "Let Jingdao take care of Zhan Shifu's affairs, and let him weigh it himself to see if anyone below needs to be promoted. That Xu Jie has been working with him, right? He should also be promoted. , read or explain to a waiter, just tell him...you go!"

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

Zhang Zuo wanted to ask, why are all the bad things being thrown at me?

Zhu Si said coldly: "If you don't go, who will go? There are too few people around me now, so you must go! This matter has been settled in advance, and when I go back to Mr. Fei Ge and the others to discuss matters, I will tell them again. Say, let them recommend it themselves."

Zhang Zuo said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that Mr. Fei Ge and the others will not agree? After all, Mr. Zhu has not entered the court for a few years."

"How many years? Yuan Changshi and Mr. Tang have been in the court for a short time, right? He is the number one scholar! Even Zhang Bingyong can directly become a scholar of the Imperial Academy, so why can't the number one scholar of the same discipline not? You should tell Jingdao first and let him Know this in advance! I also want to ask his opinion."

Zhu Si has made up his mind.

There is no need to discuss with Zhu Hao in advance, anyway, he wants to keep Zhu Hao in the capital.

After thinking about it carefully, the biggest obstacle to keeping Zhu Hao in the court is actually Zhu Hao's job as "the left servant of the Ministry of Industry". If you have nothing to do with the Ministry of Industry, then you have no reason to keep talking about going to Xishan , Tianjin, right?
……

……

Zhang Zuo had no choice but to look for Zhu Hao.

I saw Zhu Hao himself in the workshop. Zhu Hao had a guest to receive that day, and it was his brother-in-law, Sun Lan's second brother Sun Jing.

Sun Jing had been studying in the Guozijian before, and now he is ready to be released from office. It is unrealistic to expect Sun Jing to take the imperial examinations, not even the Juren. But an important errand.

Picking up any position in Xishan and Tianjin shipyards is more important than ordinary officials of the six ministries of the DPRK and Central Committee.

"Mr. Zhu."

While Sun Jing went out to wait, Zhang Zuo talked to Zhu Hao alone.

Zhu Hao held some shards of glass in his hands and wore gloves, as if he was doing some scientific research.

Zhu Hao asked: "Your Majesty asked Eunuch Zhang to come?"

"Yes."

Zhang Zuodao, "As soon as Yang Laobutang of the Ministry of Officials entered the court, he took you as a target and impeached you one after another, but it was not too much. He only said that you would be dismissed as a servant. His Majesty decided to let you go after much deliberation. Resigned from the position of the left servant of the Ministry of Industry."

Zhu Hao shook his head: "I would rather step down as the right servant of the Ministry of Rites, after all, the matter of discussing the rites has come to an end."

Zhang Zuo smiled and said, "Doesn't Your Majesty need you to put in more effort in the central decision-making? How about this? Your Majesty said that you are going to be promoted to be a Hanlin Bachelor, in charge of Zhan Shifu, and at the same time be the right servant of the Ministry of Rites. If there is anything, I can discuss it with you at any time."

Simple dispatch.

Zhu Haoxin said, I didn't give any advice, the emperor himself knew to use some unconventional means to keep people.

Even Zhu Hao felt that Zhu Si's arrangement was reasonable.

The reason is that Zhu Si did not change anything forcibly, because there were precedents of Tang Yin and Zhang Cong being Hanlin Bachelors in advance, it seems that it is logical for Zhu Hao to become a Hanlin Bachelor.

"Too fast?" Zhu Hao said.

"quick?"

Zhang Zuo didn't seem to understand.

This is also called fast?

Look at Tang Yin, he is already an elder in the court. Tang Yin entered the court at the same time as you, right?Even becoming an official later than you, anyone can do that.

The same goes for Zhang Cong... When you come here, do you feel that you have been promoted too fast?
You are a Hanlin with a strong root.

Zhu Hao said: "I mean, the speed of resigning from the position of the left servant of the Ministry of Industry is too fast, isn't it? I haven't made any achievements in this position yet."

"What grade do you want?"

Zhang Zuo was quite helpless, and said with a wry smile, "Mr. Zhu, how can you not be needed in this court? Why do you treat it so indifferently? Yang Butang is ready to let you step down and return to your hometown, or even transfer to another place. If you don't do anything else, come out." , to show your enthusiasm for court affairs, I'm afraid..."

Zhu Hao asked with a smile, "I'm afraid I'll only be in court for a few days, right?"

Zhang Zuo was speechless.

This young man can really joke.

Zhu Hao said: "As a Hanlin bachelor, I will still be like today. I will basically not appear in the Hanlin Academy. So even if His Majesty agrees, I should promote another Hanlin bachelor, so as not to delay mistakes."

"who?"

Zhang Zuo asked curiously.

Zhu Hao didn't even think about it, and said directly: "Gui E, he is a key figure in the ceremony, it's time to mention his official position!"
