Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 171

Xu Yu's eyes were straightened, this is a good emperor who is hard to find in the ages: Although the new king is not capable of handling specific government affairs, he has two huge advantages: one is self-knowledge, the new king knows that his level is not good enough , just hand over the specific affairs to the ministers, don't direct blindly, don't meddle blindly, and don't pretend to be smart.

The second is that the new monarch was really generous when he made a wish, and he immediately gave the promise of a second-rank official with real power.

Xu Yu himself felt that it was a bit unreal. When the Tumu Fortress Change happened, he was a mere sixth-rank minister of the Imperial Academy, and he also made extremely politically incorrect remarks about moving the capital. Why did it take only three months? The second grade is beckoning to himself.

But before Xu Yu finished cheering in his heart, Zhu Qiyu's beating immediately followed: "Xu Aiqing, you strongly advocated moving the capital before, although I don't care about your remarks.

But the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty are indispensable to discuss, and in the future history books, it will inevitably be written down for you.Xu Aiqing herself said, how can we get rid of this entanglement? "

Xu Yu was quite knowledgeable and interesting, so he quickly got up and asked the emperor for advice.

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand in satisfaction, motioning for Xu Yu to sit down, and then said: "Xu Aiqing should change her name. Changing her name is also a cut from the past. I will have the final say on how the history books will be written."

Xu Yu hurriedly asked the emperor to give him a name.

Zhu Qiyu laughed and said: "In terms of talent, learning, and intelligence, the three of you here are all a hundred times better than me, so I won't make fools of myself and make people laugh.

The naming should not be messed up. It should be handled from the perspectives of Yijing, hexagrams, divination and so on.

I know that Xu Aiqing is proficient in this way, but as the saying goes, a doctor does not heal himself, and you should not make calculations for yourself, so let me recommend a warlock to you. "

Xu Zhen hurriedly asked the emperor for advice.

Zhu Qiyu took a sip of tea leisurely, and then told the story to everyone: "Wu Qing Bo Shi Heng once recommended a warlock to the Supreme Emperor, called Tongyin.

This person is Shi Heng's disciple, and his divination skills are exquisite, and all his calculations are effective.

Before the Supreme Emperor's personal conquest, he sent someone to Datong to ask his colleagues to divination for good and bad, and calculated when he would be able to win and return to the court.

I can’t remember the exact words of my colleague, but let me tell you about the general meaning: that is to say, once the emperor personally conquers, he will have to go out for at least a year, and then he will not be able to return to the capital in autumn.

And once you go out, you will definitely lose your position.But after returning to Beijing, if you can hide in the abyss like Qianlong and wait for the opportunity, in the year of Ding Chou, that is, eight years later, it can be restored.

Now it seems that the first half of the conclusions calculated by my colleagues have been fulfilled, and the next part depends on what happens to the second half.

In my opinion, my colleague's divination skills are really amazing, Xu Aiqing might as well ask this gentleman to do the math. "

How could Xu Yu fail to understand the words in these words, and quickly expressed his loyalty: "Your Majesty's words, I can't agree with you, now that the artifact has been transferred and the position of heaven has been determined, how can there be restoration.

Besides, Your Majesty is in the prime of his life, wise and powerful, and has made great achievements in defending Beijing and saving the nation. If anyone dares to change the dynasty, the Supreme Emperor has no reason to restore it. "

Zhu Qiyu suddenly changed the subject: "Chen Ge is already 65 in his old age, he even won three yuan, such a smart person, he has to stay in his 60s before he can become the chief assistant.

In my Jingtai dynasty, after Chen Gel, the next chief assistant is Wang Qianzhi, even if he reaches 75.

From now on, in another 18 years, it will be the third Chief Assistant.Xu Aiqing did the math, how old were you at that time? "

Xu Yu immediately replied: "Your Majesty, I was 62 years old at that time."

Zhu Qiyu nodded with a smile, and asked a thrilling question: "Does Aiqing have any intention of being the chief assistant?"

When Xu Yu heard the words, he was really startled. Although he had always thought highly of himself and had great ambitions, it was a bit too sudden to think about being the chief assistant now.

But soon Xu Zhen adjusted his mood, and replied confidently: "If the times make heroes, I will do my part."

"Not only the times make heroes, heroes can also make the times. In fact, whether you can be the chief assistant or not, the opportunity lies in Aiqing's own hands.

I have also read history books roughly, and only heard that there were people who were persuaded to advance in history, but I have not heard of those who were persuaded to quit. I wonder if Xu Aiqing is willing to be the No. 1 in history? "

"Persuade?"

Xu Yu asked with a look of surprise.

Zhu Qiyu smiled, and then explained: "Actually, my colleague's calculation is not wrong at all, the Supreme Emperor has a chance to be restored, it's just that you can't see that far for a while.

Therefore, I still hope that the Supreme Emperor can hold the abdication ceremony and officially pass on the throne to me, and the emperor himself will issue an edict to take responsibility for the 50 soldiers who died in the civil castle, and retire as the respectful emperor.

But the emperor himself will not take the initiative to abdicate, so a minister must stand up to persuade him to quit.Originally, I preferred Yu Shangshu of the Ministry of War, but unfortunately he refused, and I don't want to be strong, so I can only let him go out of Beijing to hide from right and wrong.

Now the position of chief assistant is in front of Xu Aiqing, whether she is willing to take it, Xu Aiqing can choose freely, I will not force it.But if you don't want to, you will be a minister of the Ministry of Industry and a bachelor of the Dongge University in the future, and you will come to an end, and you can forget about it. "

Xu Yu rolled his eyes in his heart. Is there such a thing that people can choose freely? Who doesn't want to reach the pinnacle of civil servants.At this position, can anyone willingly and deliberately stop at the Minister of the Ministry of Industry?

Xu Yu knew very well that the new king was clearly going to vote for a certificate, and once his "retirement form" was written out, it would be very difficult to jump back and return to the Supreme Emperor's camp.

"Write, I am willing to write a persuasion form."

In the end, Xu Zhen still gave the answer Xin Jun expected.

Zhu Qiyu nodded with satisfaction: "That's right, I always like people who walk in front of others. Chen and Wang are always the first to support my important ministers, so as long as I am in power, they can be safe and secure. .

The two lovers, Huang and He, were the first young talents who followed me wholeheartedly, so they will also be the chief assistants in the future.

Xu Aiqing was the first to stand up for me to persuade the emperor to retire, and in at most 20 years, she will be able to reach the pinnacle of civil servants.

Moreover, I am unwilling to deal with specific government affairs, and I am absolutely willing to delegate power to my assistant ministers.At that time, there will be opportunities for all lovers to display their talents.

I don't want to steal merit, and if you follow me, you will all be famous in history and win fame both in life and after life. "

Xu Xuan, Huang Pu, and He Yi were greatly encouraged by the words, and knelt down to thank each other.

The chat can finally come to an end here, Zhu Qiyu smiled and told Xu Yu: "Go to your colleagues later to figure it out and change your name.

I am very interested in my colleague, so you can test him out for me.If he can be of use to me, great, if not, oops. "

Xu Yu's face changed when he heard the words, and then he quickly replied: "Yes, if my colleagues can't be used by the Holy Majesty and instead serve the Emperor, disasters will happen in the future, and I know what to do."

Zhu Qiyu smiled and waved his hands: "Xu Aiqing misunderstood, I didn't let you kill him. I am not such a narrow-minded person, if he is not willing to be used by me, then let him go.

I belong to the destiny, how can I be serious with a little magician, if I want to spread the word, I won't make people laugh.

All right, I'm going back to take a nap, you can move freely.All three of you come here early in the evening. I want to invite all my cronies to a banquet. While having a drink, we will talk about the strategy for using troops in the future. "

So the monarchs and ministers left and went to rest.

On the other side, civil servants of the fourth rank and above in the imperial court were all gathered in the Benren Hall, and all of them shirked each other and refused to stand out.Hu Wei, Wang Zhi and other important ministers who were close to the Supreme Emperor were all driven out of the capital.

Now as a representative to ask the Queen Mother for advice, it has become a hot potato, and no one is willing to take it easy.
