Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 473 Talent

There are many problems and disadvantages that have arisen in the Ming Dynasty, just like a mess without a head or tail. There is me in you, and you in me. If you move one place, it will affect other places. Therefore, you cannot sort it out in a crude way. Even if Once sorted out, it will only last for decades of peace.

After all, if the fundamental problems and long-standing shortcomings are not resolved, it will be hard to escape the fate of overthrowing the country!

Zhu Youxiao wanted to save the Ming Dynasty. After all, he was the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. If the Ming Dynasty was not good, then he, the emperor, would not be well.

Therefore, we should be gentle and gentle, and we should be hard and tough. Only by combining hardness and softness can we fundamentally solve the problem of Ming Dynasty!

The exchange with Yang Lian on the management of the Yellow River gave Zhu Youxiao a clear understanding of what the areas outside Beizhili were like.

Especially in special periods when disasters occur frequently, if those livelihood projects involving a wide area, such as regulating the Yellow River and maintaining the stability of water transportation, cannot truly play their due role, they will undoubtedly have a fatal impact on the Ming Dynasty!

"Your Majesty, here comes the practice of state affairs."

The Qianqing Palace was very quiet late at night. Liu Ruoyu walked into Dongnuang Pavilion with his head lowered and bowed to Zhu Youxiao who was busy at his desk.

"Tell him to come in."

Zhu Youxiao didn't even raise his head. There were many memorials and files piled up on the imperial case. After a long talk with Yang Lian, Zhu Youxiao understood one thing. He must implement it as soon as possible, otherwise too many low-level groups will suffer. Unfair treatment!

"I... The magistrate of Shanyang County is practicing state affairs and paying homage to your majesty!"

"No gifts."

Zhu Youxiao put down the file he was holding, looked up at the lean middle-aged man in front of him, and showed a faint smile, "I know all about the performance of the Qing family in Shanyang County. Zuo Guangdou, the censor of the two Huaihe patrols, submitted to me the secret report In the book, the Qing family was mentioned more than once. The political inspection and maintenance of the two Huaihe Rivers are responsible for the current stability, which is also related to the Qing family."

"These are all things I should do."

When practicing state affairs, he looked calm and raised his hands to bow to the emperor.

He is a capable person.

Looking at Lian Guoshi's performance, Zhu Youxiao showed an expression of approval.

Although the Ming Dynasty currently has many problems and shortcomings, Zhu Youxiao feels fortunate that the Ming Dynasty has no shortage of talents, no matter what field they are good at!

It's just that these talents have not been fully released in the original timeline. Otherwise, relying on the talent reserves of the Ming Dynasty, let alone the raging Jianlu and rogue bandits, even if there are more Daming can also deal with enemies one by one.

"Let's get down to business."

Zhu Youxiao suppressed his smile, stared at Lianguo and said seriously: "I specially summoned the Qing family from Shanyang to the capital because of their ability to stay calm in times of trouble. I plan to set up a new official in the Shaofu. Department, call for emergency response. From now on, this department will take charge of the shelter and resettlement of refugees entering northern Zhili."

"In addition, this department also needs to take into account the occurrence of various disasters, assist the Disaster Relief and Clearance Department under the jurisdiction of the Shaofu, and complete the overall coordination and deployment of various disaster relief materials."

Emergency Cleanup Department?

Now there was an omission in practicing state affairs. Regarding the Shaofu, even though he was far away from the central court, he was somewhat familiar with it. In the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, there was no airtight news.

Whether it is a center or a place, there are subtle connections between them.

"What worries does the Qing family have?"

Seeing that Lian was silent about state affairs, Zhu Youxiao was not angry and leaned forward to ask.

"Your Majesty, I feel that there is no need to set up this emergency cleaning department."

Lian Guoshi paused, lowered his head and admonished the emperor: "There is a secretary in the central government who can obviously take charge of the corresponding matters. Your Majesty sets up another office in the Shaofu. It will not only cause buck-passing, but also encourage redundant officials!" Sure enough! .

Zhu Youxiao raised his brows slightly and couldn't help but laugh. This person who practices state affairs is very capable, but he also has a very upright temperament. If he is willing to take up the post because of a few words he said, then he is not practicing state affairs. .

"Does the Qing family think that I am doing something unnecessary?"

"I have no such intention, I am just discussing the matter."

Facing the emperor's inquiry, he was not timid in practicing state affairs.

"Then I want to ask the Qing family."

Zhu Youxiao lifted up his robe sleeves and looked at Lian Guoshi, "If in the next few years, or even longer, there are frequent disasters in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, I want to help those who suffered the disaster as quickly as possible. The place is stabilized so that the people affected by the disaster can suffer less. How much can be accomplished in a foreign court that relies on officials to manage corruption, a foreign court where officials protect each other, a foreign court that practices favoritism and abuses, and a foreign court that uses power for personal gain?"

This……

Lian Guo Shi was silent.

Although he wanted to answer this question, based on his experience in serving as a local official, his upright heart did not allow him to tell any lies.

"In the eyes of the so-called mainstream, the Shaofu is the so-called headquarters of officials. Anyone who serves in the Shaofu is a lucky minister."

Zhu Youxiao continued: "But the things these so-called lucky ministers did in the first year of Tianqi saved many people in our Ming Dynasty and allowed our Ming Dynasty to accumulate a lot of vitality. Why don't they mention these?"

"Since you choose to be an official, your starting point is to do more practical things. Don't care about other people's evaluations. Only if you can get good evaluations from the people can you be a truly good official."

"Don't think that being an official in the Young Mansion is easy. Let me tell you the truth. If the Qing family cannot satisfy me during their tenure, then I will never keep you. In the Young Mansion, we have always followed the principle of giving priority to those who are capable. The mediocre will be given up, the mediocre will be eliminated, and the inferior will be eliminated!"

"In the past year or so, a group of people have left the Young Mansion, and even some of them have to wait until their next life to become officials. After all, dead people cannot be officials, and many people don't know this."

The mood of practicing national affairs is extremely complicated.

This was completely different from what he thought.

"Take all these memorials and documents with you."

Looking at the state affairs in front of him, Zhu Youxiao, who was leaning on the soft cushion, stretched out his hand and said: "I will give the Qing family three days. If after reading these memorials and documents, the Qing family still feels that the young master is not good, then they can go directly back to Shanyang County." , if you want to share the worries for me, share the worries for the country, and want to help the suffering people, then the newly established emergency cleaning department will be established by the Qing family."

"After the establishment of the Emergency Cleaning Department, branch offices will be established in various prefectures in Beizhili. From now on, as long as the people of the Ming Dynasty who have fled to Beizhili from various places will be taken care of and resettled, you will be responsible for the shelter and resettlement. If there is no department in Beizhili, Quan intervenes, this involves many matters such as epidemic prevention, resettlement, diversion, etc. The emergency cleaning department must do a good job. If one person dies, then don’t blame me for being ruthless!"

Zhu Youxiao cannot yet afford the huge expense of regulating the Yellow River, but Zhu Youxiao will still spend money to resettle the refugees from various places, no matter how difficult it is. This will not only allow more people to survive, but also promote the development of Beizhili. , there are too many things in this world that cannot be accomplished with just one mouth...
