Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

The Secretary of the General Administration was originally a poor yamen, except for a few bosses, the experience of the following and the governors were not worth a single star.In addition, this place is just a decoration for the entire court of the Ming Dynasty, and no one will come to give gifts and worship.

The last time I rushed to give a gift, it was based on etiquette that many people would not blame.Moreover, the old Taoist priests did not know much about the official system of the Ming Dynasty.As soon as he heard the name of the Secretary of General Administration, he subconsciously regarded it as a real power structure like the cabinet.Otherwise, it would be impossible to give Su Mu a chance to get to know him.

In the past years, the poor governors wished that the yamen or officials would invite them out for a drink to see if they could get some benefits.This year, everyone is determined to participate in the next year's Spring Festival, and they know that they have been here for a long time, so they don't have the heart to think about these mundane things, and they are all focused on books.

From the second day of the Lunar New Year, the governors all arrived at the Secretary of General Affairs on time and began to study hard, all for the sake of the cleanliness here.Moreover, if there is something unclear in knowledge, you can discuss it with your colleagues as soon as possible.

Therefore, throughout the Chinese New Year period, the staff of the General Administration Department reported to work on time and left work on time, with an extremely correct work attitude.

If the Ming Dynasty government had a so-called disciplinary picket department to visit a yamen during Chinese New Year, the Secretary of General Administration would definitely hold a pennant of an advanced collective.

His ears were filled with the chants of his colleagues, but Su Mu liked the reading atmosphere here a little bit.

I used to think that the spring in March was still early, and I had some time to study.Now once I sink my heart, I realize that the days go by so fast, and the New Year is over in a blink of an eye.And he felt that he didn't seem to have learned anything in this half month.

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the imperial court began to operate normally, and the affairs at hand became busy all of a sudden.

The national mourning was officially lifted, and there were two days until the day when Emperor Zhengde got married and took charge of the government.

According to the imperial etiquette system, whenever the imperial court encounters major national events such as weddings and funerals, ascension to the throne, pro-government, candidacy, and wars, they must sacrifice to the Taimiao, and this time it is naturally inevitable.

All the yamen, especially the cabinet and the Ministry of Rites are busy with their feet sticking to the ground.

However, these have nothing to do with Sumu, or the Secretary of General Administration.

Of course, the number of documents exchanged is ten times that of the past.

The governors are now determined to rush to the Jinshi department, and they don't have any integrity in government affairs, so they just ask the secretary office to deal with it.

Su Mu is not interested in this kind of sending and receiving at all, and there are still some days before the next release of the residence newspaper.Besides, after Zhengde formally took charge, the errands at hand were completely half done.It has nothing to do with him as to what to do in the future.

At this time, he couldn't help sighing softly: It's really a simple task, except for being questioned by Zhang Yong last time.

On this day, Su Mu went to the Ministry of Rites because of something.After finishing the work, as soon as he arrived at the yamen, he heard people say that Zuo Tongzhenghua noticed that he had come early in the morning, and scolded everyone, saying that something happened to the mansion report in the last issue, and even the entire Tongzheng Secretary was punished. The impeachment of the speakers of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Master Hua was upset, and ran to Wu Shiqi's side, slapping the table with him and scolding his mother!

As the initiator of this issue of the mansion newspaper, Su Mu was naturally concerned, and couldn't help but ask his colleagues what the specific situation was like.

As soon as the words were asked, Duan Jiong, who had always been unhappy with Su Mu, sneered and said sarcastic words: "Master Wu's mansion is full of flattery and flattery, and his character is so inferior. At the beginning, the official said that doing so was a mistake. It’s a villain’s behavior, it’s not bad, although there are many villains in the court, there are still most of them are gentlemen. If the road is not smooth, others will shovel it.”

While talking, Duan Jiong couldn't help squinting at Su Mu, meaning that Su Mu, you are Wu Shiqi's accomplice, so you are naturally a villain.

Governor Weng was a kind man, he hurriedly grabbed Su Mu, beckoned him to be patient, and quickly told the story from the beginning to the end.

It turned out that after the publication of that issue of the residence newspaper, it was passed to the cabinet as soon as possible.First of all, Mr. Xie Qian and Xie Ge couldn't hold back, and ran to find the Empress Dowager Cisheng and the emperor to top him off. Finally, after taking a benign blow from the Empress Dowager Zhang, he returned to the cabinet sullenly.I am going to continue to appeal with the two cabinet ministers Liu Jian and Li Dongyang.

When Liu Shoufu saw the mansion newspaper, he was furious, and took the case against him, saying that the mansion newspaper was run like this, and the whole article was full of bragging and flattering words, what's the point, and he couldn't bear it.

"However, Master Li made the two cabinet elders to be patient. In fact, it is good for the cabinet's decree to do so in the mansion report. Let's wait and see how it gets better." Governor Weng said: "My official It was only a few days ago that I heard about it from a classmate who worked in the Hanlin Academy, and that's how I learned the truth."

Governor Huang praised: "Master Weng's eyes and eyes are really good, please continue."

Hearing the gossip, several other governors gathered around with excitement on their faces.

Only Duan Jiong sat on the side with disdain, but Su Mu still found that this guy also pricked up his ears.

Governor Niu also said: "Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Weng, please continue to talk about why the residence newspaper we made is good for the cabinet?"

Governor Weng was also proud to see that everyone was upbeat, and raised his spirits: "This matter must start with the officials. Regarding this issue of the mansion newspaper, in fact, the imperial envoy reacted most strongly. But the prime ministers are not the same as the officials. It fits so well.”

It turned out that after seeing the residence newspaper, I sighed at the beginning: the world is peaceful, the emperor is holy, and the queen mother is auspicious. It is really a prosperous age!

But at the end of the reading, it blew up the nest.

There is impeachment by imperial envoys: officials from top to bottom of the General Administration Department steal the center, block the way of speech, and deceive the world.The mansion newspaper only listens to praises, but has no opinion of the world and the people.If your Majesty, the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother only listen to good things, if the superiors have something good, the subordinates will follow suit.If things go on like this, if the flattery gains power, the country will surely change into another look.

The so-called born in sorrow, die in peace.How about the state-owned ministers, what about the family?

In the end, it rose to the height of life and death, and asked the imperial court to remove all the Tongzhengsi and the left and right Tongzheng, so as to correct the morale of the people.

Anyway, in a word, if the relevant leaders of the Secretary of General Administration are not punished, and the way the newspaper is run is not rectified, the country will be ruined.

Governor Huang: "These officials can really go online!"

Governor Weng smiled: "You don't know now, the mansion newspaper made by Mr. Wu has cut off the lives of the royal envoys. If this happens, they will definitely fight our Tongzheng Secretary desperately."

"How to say?" Now, even Su Mu felt very curious.

Governor Weng: "The main task of the officials is to hear rumors. To put it bluntly, they are to pick on people's faults. But how to pick faults is a bit particular, and you have to get to the point. Otherwise, it will look like you This man can't stand it."
