Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

Chapter 164 Persuasion
The triumphant return of Emperor Chongzhen did not seem to have caused much disturbance to the capital, but the disturbance hidden in the dark was still fermenting.

Yuan Chonghuan was sent to prison to be dealt with, the early court was not held, and there was not even any news about the great court.

One after another, in the eyes of civil officials, strange and irregular incidents made cabinet ministers such as Han Yu and Li Biao unable to stand up.

From the moment Emperor Chongzhen returned to Beijing from his personal conquest, the title of Assistant Minister they had conferred earlier was automatically stripped of its halo.

"Yuanfu, what do you mean His Majesty?"

On the way to the Military Aircraft Department, Li Biao frowned and said in a low voice: "The court has not been held until now, and there are so many ministers in the court, and His Majesty has not responded to the memorials submitted to the Secretary of General Administration.

This military aircraft office was originally set up temporarily by Jianlu to invade our Ming Dynasty. Now that Jianlu has been repelled by His Majesty, why does His Majesty not go to the Wenhua Palace to manage politics, but stay in the military aircraft to handle politics? It's in line with etiquette. "

Han Yu walked forward slowly, frowning and said: "I don't know the assistant, it's hard to guess the holy will now, I'm afraid that the anger towards Yuan Chonghuan in His Majesty's heart cannot be dissipated.

If there hadn't been this Jianlu invasion, I wouldn't have been like this, and neither would Your Majesty. All current signs show that Your Majesty has great doubts about the cabinet and the various ministries. "

Leaving aside the Military Aircraft Office and the Nine-door Admirals specially set up by Emperor Chongzhen, the current power framework system of the Ming Dynasty is actually a very complete existence, which can be regarded as the operating system under the feudal system.

The cabinet votes are drafted, the ceremonial supervisor approves the red, the six ministries of the central government, the courtyards, temples, science and roads and other government offices perform their duties, plus the local administrative agencies, relying on the civil servants to rule this huge territory, no matter what happens problems can be effectively resolved.

It all depends on the absence of a Little Ice Age.

But at the present stage of Ming Dynasty, it is a coincidence that it is in this period, frequent disasters, further exacerbated class conflicts and plans, the collapse of the tax system, serious land annexation, serious corruption of officials, collapse of laws and regulations, etc., if Emperor Chongzhen He can't even grasp the power in the court, and there is no imperial party, factory guards, etc. extended from the imperial power to assist him in ruling the rotten Ming Dynasty, so how to solve the problem from the root?

The struggle between imperial power and ministerial power has never stopped.

Han Yu and Li Biao came to the Military Aircraft Department during the conversation between you and Li Biao. Looking at the busy people, they felt sad in their hearts.

Once upon a time, the emperor was in charge of government in the Wenhua Palace, but now he is staying in this special military aircraft office, which is unacceptable to them.

"My lord, Han Yu, the chief assistant of the cabinet, and Li Biao, the second assistant, please see me."

Pang Tianshou walked into the office, and cupped his hands to the busy Emperor Chongzhen, "They said they have something important to report to the Emperor."

After all, I can't bear my temper.

Emperor Chongzhen, who heard this, raised his head, put down the ink pen in his hand, and said, "Xuan them to come in, and ask Wang Qia and them to take care of the other memorials."

Han Yu and Li Biao probably came here to persuade themselves. On the one hand, it was related to Yuan Chonghuan, and on the other hand, it was the governance of the early court and Hui Wenhua Palace.

However, their political appeals are in vain. Before the situation is stabilized, there is no way for the Sanju to get involved in the matter of Yuan Chonghuan. This is the only initiative, how could he give it up.

As for not opening the morning court, at most three times a month, even if Ke Dao's speech officer and censor try to persuade him, it will be impossible to change it.

There are many ways to deal with government affairs. There is no need to waste a lot of time on formalities. The current Daming has no extra time for him to waste.

"Chen, Han Yu, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty, Li Biao, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

Under the sound of saluting from Han Yu and Li Biao, Emperor Chongzhen came back from his thoughts, looked at the two who kept their posture, and said, "You two, please excuse me."

"..."

Han Yu and Li Biao followed the sound, but Emperor Chongzhen didn't speak, which made them suffer a lot. Compared with the previous emperor, the emperor now had a cold attitude, which made them feel more pressure.

Han Yu and the others also knew in their hearts that the big difference in the attitude of the emperor before and after was all due to the influence of Jianlu's invasion of Daming.

But with the current situation in the court, what do they have to do? If they are so passive in everything, then their position as the chief assistant and second assistant of the cabinet may not be stable.

Han Yu stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, when you return home triumphantly, do you want to call all civil and military officials to hold a grand court in the Huangji Hall to demonstrate my majesty?"

"What Han Qing said, I have thought about it."

Emperor Chongzhen picked up the teacup in his hand, took a sip, and said, "I will convene the Great Court, but it's not the right time yet. When it is clear when the merits and rewards will be awarded, I will make a decree."

Regarding Han Yu’s act of not revealing his true purpose, he first came in a roundabout way. Emperor Chongzhen was also discussing the matter. The great dynasty is indeed going to open, but the evaluation and rewards have not been clarified, and many things cannot be carried out. If this is the case, then It would be better to postpone it.

"Your Majesty, since you have your own considerations in Dachao, you can go to court early..." Li Biao stepped forward and bowed to Emperor Chongzhen.

Unlike the early dynasties of the Qing Dynasty, the early dynasties of the Ming Dynasty were opened every day. Not all emperors of the Ming Dynasty were as powerful as Emperor Taizu Gao. It was this kind of heavy duty, and as time went by, The early dynasty gradually became a formality, which is why Emperor Chongzhen's grandfather, Emperor Wanli, did not go to court.

"Let's talk about it in the morning. I am busy with important military affairs and have no spare time. I will deal with this matter every day." Emperor Chongzhen put down the teacup in his hand and said.

If you want to quarrel with the civil servants of Ming Dynasty, you can't be too aggressive. You have to give a reasonable reason first, and then gradually deal with it coldly.

Otherwise, I would receive exhortations from the courtiers every day, even if I didn’t read them, I’d be annoyed just hearing about them, and it’d be nice to wait for the meeting to be held three times a month and gradually form a habit.

In fact, if you really want to talk about it, the early court is not only troublesome for the emperor, but also the ministers in the court. After all, getting up too early is also a kind of torment for the elderly courtiers.

But, due to the etiquette system, these words can only be complained in the heart, and they must not be said out of the mouth. Facing Emperor Chongzhen's reply, Han Yu and Li Biao also knew in their hearts what the emperor meant, but they also I didn't mention this matter much, after all, their real purpose here is still Yuan Chonghuan.

After all, Yuan Chonghuan was alone, and there were too many people involved. There was a big difference between being supervised by the Jinyiwei and being supervised by the Three Law Departments.
