I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 42 The first effect
There are three divisions and six departments in Ming Dynasty, three courtyards and nine temples, these are all the rules set by Taizu Hongwu.

As soon as the new emperor came to the throne, he set up a third-rank household reform bureau to run side by side with the household department, which really shocked all the ministers.

Seeing Huang Zhun, who is the director of the Household Reform Bureau, come out, all the ministers pricked up their ears. The law of household reform has only been tried in Beijing for three days, and there is a lot of trouble. They have heard of it for a long time.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the law of household reform has been implemented for three days. I have dispatched and recruited [-] painters, and have painted the clothes, hats and faces of more than [-] people in Dongcheng. Your Majesty, please take a look at the samples of his ID card."

With that said, Huang Yan handed the sample ID card in his hand to the imperial eunuch.

After the eunuch was presented to the emperor, Huang Zhun continued:
"Your Majesty, each sheet costs 120 ren, and it is made of seven-part wrought iron mixed with three-part pig iron. It is hard and tough. It is convenient for craftsmen to carve, and it is durable.

On the back of each ID card, there are steel seals of the Bureau of Household Reform, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of War, as well as the number of the engraver.

In order to prevent counterfeiting, the military battalion under the Ministry of War also added steel wires to the incisions of each ID card and engraved words. The method of making steel wires is only owned by the Ministry of War in the world today. "

Looking at the small piece of iron in his hand, Li Tian was filled with emotion.

In the 300th year of the Ming Dynasty, Guozuo died due to fiscal and taxation, and what was missing was this small piece of iron.

After looking at it for a while, Li Tian handed it to the imperial eunuch, and said loudly:

"You love ladies, take a look too, and you will all have one in the future."

A small piece of iron was passed back and forth among the officials, and everyone was amazed that such a piece of iron could cover all aspects of a person.

Many smart people have already thought of what this ID card means, and they admire Li Tian even more in their hearts.

The ID card was passed in the hands of the officials, and Li Tian looked at Huang Zhun with a smile and said:

"The law of household reform has just started, and there must be many obstacles. Zhongchang, if you have any requirements, you can boldly ask me."

Huang Zhun was moved, bowed and said:

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, if there is any difficulty, I will report the truth to Your Majesty."

Li Tian nodded slightly when he heard the words, turned to look at the officials and said:

"Aiqing, what do you want to say about my household reform law?"

The ministers of the court looked at me and I looked at you, all with wry smiles on their faces, but none of them dared to stand up.

Although the emperor violated the law of the ancestors and added yamen, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of War, and even the Banking Bureau in the palace were all involved. Even a fool could understand that the emperor was determined to implement this law.

In this situation, who would dare to go against the grain and hit the gun.

At this moment, Xia Yuanji, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, came out to bow and salute:
"Your Majesty, although the cost of 120 renminbi for this item is not expensive, but if it is cast for one hundred thousand yuan, the Ministry of Households does not have so much silver to send to Director Huang."

"Xia Shangshu is too worried." Huang Zhun bowed his hands and said:

"There are very few poor households in Beijing, so it is no problem to spend 120 Wen to buy an ID card."

"It's so good." Xia Yuanji glanced at Huang Zhun, then returned to the queue with his hands folded.

Listening to the conversation between Xia Yuanji and Huang Zhun, Li Tian suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of a wonderful deal.

"Zhongchang, stay in the palace for a while."

After the court meeting, there are often ministers who are kept by the emperor for discussion. The ministers have long been accustomed to it, but many ministers are envious of the favor of letting ministers stay in the palace during the court meeting.

Let's turn the matter of household reform for now, and the atmosphere of the court meeting has also been relaxed because of the ID card. The ministers have come out to play the memorial, trying to get acquainted in front of the emperor.

As the saying goes, everyone gathers firewood with high flames, and every major event is quickly resolved in this atmosphere. If it is not resolved, a charter plan is also set.

Stretching his back, Li Tian turned to look at Wu Zhong, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, and said:

"Wu Shangshu, in the past two days, send someone to find some places with good geomantic omen in Beijing. The places must be big. If you find them, remember to report them to me."

Before dealing with each political matter, civil and military officials have already felt the majesty of the new emperor's arbitrariness, Wu Zhong bowed out and said:
"The minister obeys the order."

As soon as Wu Zhong's words fell, the censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate were eager to try. The emperor obviously wanted to build a new house. As the censors who were dedicated to Ming Dynasty, they had to curb the emperor's pleasure.

"Zhugezheng, the censor of the Chendu Chayuan, dare to ask why His Majesty asked the Ministry of Industry to find the address, but to build a palace?"

Zhuge Zhengxing's eyebrows and sword eyes were twisted into balls, and he strode out with a righteous face.

The censor is only a seventh-rank official, standing at the end of the queue, Li Tian only heard his voice but could not see him, frowned and said:

"Whoever wants to ask me, stand in front and ask."

Without fear, Zhuge walked through the long queue to stand in front of all the civil and military officials, bowed his hands and said:

"It's the minister who wants to ask!"

Li Tian always thought that the censor with a single tendon had a generous face, but he didn't expect that there was such a handsome guy in the censor.

Looking at Zhuge Zheng who looked proud of me, Li Tianming knew why and asked:

"What do you want to ask me?"

Zhuge was neither anxious nor annoyed, Quan pretended that the emperor hadn't heard clearly before, and repeated:

"My minister Zhuge is asking His Majesty to ask the Ministry of Industry to find the address, but to build a palace?"

Li Tian's eyes were slightly cold, and he smiled and said:
"Do I have to report to you about what I do?"

Zhuge Zheng still looked neither humble nor overbearing, and replied neither salty nor light:

"Of course not, but as the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, I have the right to inquire about the court."

Seeing that Zhuge was talking back to the emperor, Liu Qing, the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, shook his head anxiously and stomped his feet.

The emperor asked the Metropolitan Procuratorate to deliver the decree to Jin Yiwei yesterday, everyone in the Metropolitan Procuratorate was very happy for a long time, how could this idiot Zhuge Zheng be on top of the Emperor.

On the side, Yang Luo, the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, also frowned. He just received a note from the cabinet yesterday, and today Zhuge is confronting His Majesty. Is he slapping him in the face or the cabinet in the face.

"Ask about the power of the court?" Li Tian laughed loudly and said:

"Then I'm telling you now, you don't have this power anymore."

Zhuge Zheng's face froze, why didn't the emperor play cards according to common sense, under normal circumstances, it shouldn't be the emperor who reprimanded him, he asked, if the emperor reprimanded him again, would he ask again?
"May I ask His Majesty, but you want to remove the humble minister from the post of censor?"

Zhuge Zheng said solemnly.

"No." Li Tian shook his head and smiled:
"I can't exempt you from your position. The censor has three powers of supervising officials, impeaching courtiers, and inquiring about the court. I only exempt you from one of them."

Zhugezheng heard the words, his handsome face suddenly turned into a liver color, and he didn't know how to answer the words for a while.

"Your Majesty is not strict, please forgive me." Liu Qing, the censor of Zuodu, stepped out quickly, bowed his hands, turned to stare at Zhuge Zheng and shouted:
"It's a shameful thing, get the hell out of here soon."
