Daming: My grandfather is Emperor Hongwu!

Chapter 29 Surprising Words
Zhu Xiongying sat on the dragon chair, looking up at the tall figure in front of him.

Zhu Yuanzhang's shoulders were so broad that they almost blocked his sight.The back is very straight, as straight as an unsheathed sword.

He suddenly felt a little sighed, uncovering the veil of history, and only when we really come to the times can we see what kind of emperor and man Zhu Yuanzhang is behind those who have been deliberately discredited and distorted in history.

Letting talents go, he asked Jin Yiwei to pass the decree. In Zhu Xiongying's view, he looked like an old school leader.

"The people who complained will be my people in the future, and no one is allowed to bully them, not in the open or in the dark. But whatever happens to these people in the future, even if they sprain their feet while walking, they will be blamed on their magistrates!"

Unreasonable!
But listen, what a fucking boost!
At this time, in the palace, Li Shanchang, the Duke of South Korea, pleaded guilty.

Zhu Yuanzhang paused for a moment, then asked, "What's your crime?"

Li Shanchang saluted and said, "My brother is guilty of negligence in keeping righteousness, and my minister is also guilty of incompetence in teaching! At that time, when Ying Tianfu Yin came out, it was my minister who recommended my younger brother to be in charge. Now that something like this has happened, I regret it!"

Zhu Xiongying noticed that when Li Shanchang opened his mouth, Zhu Biao, who was standing by the imperial steps, frowned slightly.And Zhu Yuanzhang also turned around gradually, with a displeased expression on his face.

Why are the two men unhappy at the same time?

What did Li Shanchang say wrong?
"Your Majesty loves the people earnestly, hates stupid officials and bad officials, and hates dereliction of duty. My minister manages the emperor's feet, the most benevolent place, but he can't control his subordinates so that they know His Majesty's love for the people. It can be said that his virtue is not worthy, and he has lost his reputation! "

Zhu Xiongying noticed again that Zhu Yuanzhang, who was standing in front of the dragon chair with his hands behind his back, suddenly squeezed his fingers hard.

Obviously, Li Shanchang's words made the old man feel a little uncomfortable.

"Yes, if you really apologize, you shouldn't ask at the court meeting!" Zhu Xiongying thought to himself, "He, Li Shanchang, is a veteran of the founding of the country, a son and daughter of the royal family, and a prince and grand teacher. If you really want to apologize, you should submit a letter in private, or Plead guilty during the private audience."

"In front of civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, how can the emperor punish him for such a plea? If the punishment is heavy, some people will think too much. If the punishment is light, people will think that the emperor is accommodating the old officials!"

This is, leave the problem to the emperor!
Looking at the palace, the old Korean Duke with white beard and hair.Zhu Xiongying suddenly felt a little bit of the thoughts that Zhu Biao once had. At such an advanced age, the prosperity and wealth have reached the peak, why should he be greedy for power and position in the court.

Wouldn't it be nice to retire early and enjoy family happiness?
Now is the 15th year of Hongwu, and in a few years, when Zhu Yuanzhang's patience with these old Huaixi people ran out, Li Shanchang's family had more than seventy members.Except for the son-in-law's son, and the two sons of the princess's daughter-in-law, they were all killed.

"You said you were guilty too?" Zhu Yuanzhang smiled faintly, and looked around at the officials, "Since Han Guogong said he was guilty, who of you will say how to punish him?" As he spoke, his eyes fell on a group of civil servants, "Yu Shi Ru Taisu, tell me!"

"I believe that Han Han is not guilty!" Ru Taisu came out and said, "Ying Tianfu inspectors do not allow the people to come to Beijing to file a complaint, but investigate the crime of inspecting the chief official. Li Cunyi has the crime of lax control of his subordinates, and His Majesty has exonerated him." His official position is counted as a punishment. Just because Li Cunyi is the younger brother of the Duke of Korea, the Duke of Korea should not be said to be guilty!"

"Oh?" Zhu Yuanzhang said with a long voice, but did not speak.

"But I think that Han Gong is at fault!" Ru Taisu said again, "The fault is that he shouldn't have recommended his younger brother to be Ying Tian Fu's governor. Although it is said that the promotion of talents does not avoid relatives, one should avoid suspicion."

This Ru Taisu is from Shanxi, and has always been known for his loyalty.What he meant to avoid suspicion was that your Duke Han is already an extremely talented minister, so why bother to recommend your younger brother to manage the emperor's footsteps, an important place in the capital.

"Well, it's a good word to avoid suspicion!" Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Then tell me, although he is not guilty, he made a mistake, so he should be punished!" He laughed again, and said to the officials in the palace, "Come on, you all talk about whether you should be punished or not!"

Some of the officials in the palace nodded, some shook their heads, but no one spoke first.

Seeing the appearance of the officials, Zhu Xiongying knew in his heart that no one spoke first because everyone did not want to offend Li Shanchang for no reason.Furthermore, every family has three relatives and six friends, and they didn't think it was such a big deal in their hearts.

Zhu Yuanzhang clenched his hands behind his back again.Then he turned around, intending to sit back on the dragon chair.

But when he turned around, he suddenly saw that Zhu Xiongying was thinking about it, his heart moved, and he said, "Dasun, please tell me, should Han Gong be punished or not!"

The voice fell, and the officials were shocked.

Although the grandson of the emperor has a high status, he is an eight-year-old child after all. What does he know?
Even Zhu Biao became nervous, for fear that Zhu Xiongying would say the wrong thing on this occasion.

"Grandfather, my grandson thinks that if you make a mistake, you should be punished!" Zhu Xiongying stood up, walked to Zhu Yuanzhang, and said loudly, "Not to mention whether Li Cunyi is his younger brother, just because he recommended him, he will Should be punished!"

As he said that, Zhu Xiongying looked at the officials and continued to speak loudly, "Among officials, there has always been a tradition of referrals. It stands to reason that it is a good thing to serve the country, but you must know it in your heart. Throughout the ages, you can truly serve the country wholeheartedly. How many moves have you made?"

"Although I was young, I said it a few days ago when I listened to the history of the Hanlin scholars in the university hall. During the Zhao and Song Dynasties, there were party disputes one after another. Gein's ministers recommended each other, either their own students or fellow villagers. It's their own..."

"There are still some ministers who regard recommending officials as a way to make money!"

"Of course, it doesn't mean that the officials and ministers of this dynasty are also like this, but it doesn't mean that there will be no future. If you are recommended to a high position, you will naturally be grateful to the person who promoted him. In this way, it is strange that there is no party dispute!"

As soon as Zhu Xiongying spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up, while the officials were dumbfounded.

Because the tone of the emperor's grandson was set too high.Li Cunyi said that Potian was just a crime of dereliction of duty, at most it was dismissal from office.But as soon as the emperor's grandson came up, he was directly pulled to the height of the party struggle.

Li Shanchang was even more terrified, and directly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I have absolutely no intention of forming a party!"

"Han Hangong doesn't have to be like this!" Zhu Xiongying continued to speak under the encouragement of Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, "I'm not talking about you, but because Ying Tianfu doesn't allow the common people to complain, I think of this place."

"What Gu said is just four words, just prevent it from happening!"

"It's a good thing to recommend, but if the person who recommends him is not virtuous and does something wrong, then the person who recommended him should also be punished!" Zhu Xiongying continued, "This is an official's accountability. Just imagine, dozens of Years from now, my Ming dynasty will be prosperous and the flowers are blooming. No one knows whether official recommendation will become a kind of official rule like in the previous Song Dynasty!"

"But now the tone is set. If the person recommended is wrong, the person who is recommended for promotion is also jointly and severally liable. That must be a precautionary measure. At least, they will think carefully before making a recommendation. Not to mention the recommendation of officials. , make it into a means!"

"It's over, this will be another difficult one in the future!"

The hearts of the ministers were like turbulent waves. It was unheard of for an eight-year-old child to think of officials' dereliction of duty, think of party struggles, and then think of the disadvantages of recommending officials.

Moreover, the eight-year-old emperor's grandson was not stage frightened when speaking.What's even more frightening is his keen insight.And when he speaks, he doesn't allow others to argue, and he directly points to the domineering spirit of people's hearts.

Someone secretly looked up, Zhu Xiongying's small figure was in front, and the emperor's figure was behind. Gradually, the old and the young seemed to overlap in sight.

"This kind of accountability is also a kind of supervision, not the person!" Zhu Xiongying continued, "I only think that from this incident onwards, accountability should be implemented. Prevent erroneous things from happening, and prevent problems before they happen!"

Zhu Yuanzhang stood up, walked to Zhu Xiongying's side, bent down to look at him, and said with a smile, "You said that this method is a bit of a lie, so let me ask you, if officials are afraid of accountability, they will not recommend talents to the court." So, wouldn’t it be a small loss that makes a big difference?”

Zhu Xiongying smiled, with resolute eyes, "***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************! Put it above the country!"
