Invincible Zhengde

Chapter 241
This sentence evolved from "If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight." Zhu Houzhao is telling the old man that you can't protect these cabinet scholars too much. Since they have achieved the position of cabinet scholars, they should bear the responsibility. That must be borne, and this cannot be changed.

Of course, Zhu Houzhao also knows the difficulties of the Cabinet Master, and it is not the first time that the Cabinet Master has faced such difficulty.

Every cabinet scholar will face such a problem. To put it bluntly, it is a matter of position, which side do you stand on.Many cabinet scholars have resigned by themselves, why?It's not that he really didn't want to do it anymore, but that he stood on the opposite side of the emperor and stood with the civil official group or the gentry group instead of choosing imperial power.

Sometimes, what the imperial power did was wrong. In order to show resistance, the cabinet scholars would choose to resign at this time.

More often, there is a conflict between the imperial power and the power of the gentry, and the civil servants below force the cabinet scholars to fight against the imperial power. There are various titles, such as "Paper-pasted three pavilion elders, clay sculpture six ministers", if you choose to stand on the opposite side of the imperial power, the cabinet scholar will not be able to do it.

Resigning is the best choice, otherwise what awaits them is dismissal, and this time is the same.

If the gentry and civil official group opposes it to the end, then Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, and Xie Qian, the three cabinet scholars, will be roasted on the fire. At this time, they need to make a choice.Did you choose to stand on the emperor's side, or did you choose to stand on the side of the gentry and civil officials?If you stand on the side of imperial power, then the hat of a treacherous minister must be indispensable.

If you are on the side of the gentry and civil servants, then threaten to resign!If the emperor backs down, then the official position can still be kept. If the emperor doesn't back down, then really go home!
Glancing at his son, Zhu Youtang said, "Looking at you, it seems that you want to change a few cabinet scholars?"

"Those who know me say that I worry about me and those who don't know me, what do you want for me?" Zhu Houzhao recited a line from "Guofeng · Wangfeng · Mili" in the Book of Songs. The meaning is obvious, that is, big differences do not interact seek.In fact, Zhu Houzhao thinks so. Reform has never been an easy task. It needs like-minded people, even if they are not like-minded people, then they also need obedient people.

If the cabinet ministers and the ministers of the center take the lead in opposing, how can reform be done?You'd better go home as soon as possible, so as not to be dishonorable.

Even though Lanzhi is blocking the way, I will get rid of it. This is what I am talking about. If you are not on my side, then you are useless.

"Alas!" After hearing what his son said, Zhu Youtang took a deep breath, and said with a wry smile, "I can only take one step forward." He waved his hand as he spoke, signaling Zhu Houzhao to step back, obviously Zhu Youtang was in a low mood , he needs his own for a while.

"And the minister will leave!" Zhu Houzhao bowed in salute, and then retreated. Naturally, at this time, he would not be here to cause trouble for the old man.

Looking at his son's back, Zhu Youtang's body is a bit complicated. This is a very good son, very good, a very good successor, and also an ambitious and ambitious successor.I have only this son, and I have no choice. Sooner or later, Daming's country will belong to him. Even if I stop him now, what about the future?

Once he is gone and the country is in his hands, will he still do it?At that time, I really can't see the success or failure, and I can't help.

In fact, Zhu Youtang did not agree with his son's actions at all, but Zhu Youtang also knew that he could not correct his son, nor could he make him do what he wanted. When he was the prince, he also wanted to do something big business.Thinking of this, Zhu Youtang sighed helplessly, and went to work with his son.

If it works, it's good, if it doesn't work, it's a lesson for my son, I hope he can be more cautious in the future.

Of course, Zhu Houzhao didn't know about his father's psychological activities, but he was still very happy to get his support and affirmation.

Of course, the matter of the early court cannot be concealed. After the news spread, it immediately caused an uproar, and there were many public opinions, saying everything.Of course, it is mainly concentrated between the noble group and the gentry group. Ordinary people don't feel much about this kind of thing, and even ordinary people are more concerned that the price of pork has finally dropped.

Numerous memorials were sent to the palace, and those who were in favor of it and those who opposed it became a mess, and the cabinet became the target of public criticism.

Many civil servants hoped that the cabinet would stand up and resolutely oppose this kind of behavior. The nobles have benefited a lot from them in the past few years. Once the staff office is established, wouldn't these nobles want to show off their power even more?Driven by interests, many people have made choices. As for national interests, the key is not to be on the stage, and to harm their own interests.

It's just that the three academicians in the cabinet haven't expressed their views. It's not easy for them to do it. If they don't agree, it will make His Majesty suspicious. Are you seizing power?

No one can afford to wear the hat of taking power and taking power, but if they agree, their reputation will be completely stinky. Besides, from the bottom of their hearts, the three elders also disagree. Under such circumstances, they are going to go ahead. Look at the direction of the wind, and temporarily refrain from expressing opinions, which is what it should be. At this time, one person stood up.

This person is the Minister of the Ministry of Households, Zhong Zhong. He wrote a memorial, lashing out at the staff office, discussing the national finances in detail, stating the dangers of redundant officials, and even mentioned the party disputes in the former Song Dynasty.

One stone stirred up waves, and after this memorial was uploaded, it instantly became a call to action by the opposition party. In an instant, the public opinion in the capital was raging, and everyone wrote a letter to oppose it.

Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Youtang looked at his son, sighed and said, "See, it's not easy to do things!"

Zhu Houzhao didn't take it seriously, took a sip of tea, and then said with a smile: "Isn't this expected a long time ago? It's just a matter of staying in China. It will be announced in a few days, and most of the officials will be in favor of setting up a staff office. , the father complied with the will of heaven and the will of the people, and decided to set up a staff office, this is not enough, what else can they do?"

Glancing at his son, Zhu Youtang's jaw almost dropped to the ground, and he looked at his son with strange eyes. Is this still his own son?
This means that a deer is a horse!This is talking nonsense with your eyes open!This is too shameless.

face?Want face to be eaten?Besides, memorials are not counting votes, counting votes can be falsified, let alone this thing?
