Chapter 147
The first year of Chongzhen.

April sixteenth.

early morning.

At the Gate of Supreme Harmony, Yang Reform ascended the throne.

Although Yang Reform doesn't like going to court like this, there are some things that have to be dealt with in court.This is a place where monarchs and ministers fight. Without this place to go to the battlefield, there will definitely be more fun in other places. Yang Reform thought, this, we will open up a second battlefield, and we can’t always fight with ministers here. Fighting here is too disadvantageous, and there are too few people who are united with me, and I am "weak and weak".It is a bit difficult to always overwhelm the ministers. On an unexpected day, the ministers gave themselves a demon moth, and they suffered heavy losses.

"Well, all my lovers, let's get down. Today, I want to hear my lovers sing a new song. I'm really tired of singing this song all the time." Yang Reform will torture the ministers as soon as he comes up.

The emperor's request made the officials below extremely hot. This minister who is an official actually wants to get along with those actors, and wants to perform and sing for the emperor every day. This is hard to argue. Who is called the emperor? Is it to let everyone increase the righteousness in the chest and abdomen?I didn't notice it at first, I was fooled by the emperor, now I want to stop, but I can't convince the emperor, it's hot, now the emperor wants to listen to a new song...

The chief assistant stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is not appropriate. I think the ministers of the court are working hard on state affairs every day, and I am afraid that they don't have time to practice singing."

"Hehe, no no no, today I don't plan to let all of you sing at home. Today, I plan to let you listen to a few songs and then talk about it. If you think it's good and agree, it's not too late to sing. If it's not good, no I agree, and I will never force you to sing new songs." Yang Reform explained to the ministers with a smile.Make a bet with the officials that the officials will sing for themselves.

The ministers below also became interested when they heard it. They hated the singing so much that they hated it so much, and now they even let themselves agree to the singing. These people are eager to try it, and they are ready to see what tricks the emperor is playing.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, is it true? If I do not agree, does that mean that we can stop singing in the future?" Shoufu asked the emperor cautiously.If you make a bet, you have to explain the betting money clearly, so as not to regret it in the future.

"How can this be? Thinking about this singing is one of the poems and songs. The poems and songs can cultivate people's sentiments, exercise people's morality, increase people's cultivation, increase people's awe-inspiring spirit, and evolve people's hearts. How can it be possible?" Don’t sing anymore? Could it be that you hate poetry and songs so much?” Yang Reform was talking nonsense, anyway, he wanted to grasp several reasons to torture the ministers.

The ministers are helpless, these poems and songs can really cultivate people's sentiments, but it's listening to others singing, it's okay to ask a few girls to sing a few ditties, it's fun, but if you sing it yourself, it's... hot .

"Hehe, don't worry, if you love me, I will let you teach me new songs. If you don't like it, don't agree, then forget it. Use poetry, singing and dancing to cultivate your sentiments and improve your moral character..." Yang Reform looked distressed.

The officials: "..." There is nothing to say, and the run-on by the emperor is even hotter.

Yang Reform turned his head and said, "Big companion, let's get started."

"Obey, Your Majesty." Wang Chengen responded to Yang Reform's order, turned around and told a young eunuch to go.After a while, singing sounded outside the hall.

"

My home is on the Liaohe River in the northeast,
……

And the soybean sorghum all over the mountains and plains.

My home is on the Liaohe River in the northeast,
……

And the aging parents.

"Dad and mother", "Dad and mother",
vagabond!stray!
All day price in the customs, wandering!
What year, what month,
To be able to return to my lovely hometown?

When,
To get together?
"

When singing the first time, many ministers didn't understand the words, but after the second time, some people already understood, or their faces were ugly, or their eyes were puzzled.

To the end of the third pass.The hall was very quiet, everyone didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the emperor's gourd, so why sing this Liaodong tune?Could it be that they want to turn over the old things in Liaodong?Liability for liquidation?Hasn't the minister of the king been dismissed?Why did you bring it up again?Could it be that he wanted to reverse the case against that Xiong Manzi, Xiong Tingbi?In the minds of the people, they immediately began to make random guesses.

How did they know that the reason why the emperor asked them to sing was that they had eaten too much food and were overwhelmed, making fun of these ministers and making fun of them.

"How about this song?" Yang Reform asked.

A minister came out and played: "Your Majesty, this song is indeed very sad and desolate, and the listener weeps! I am so moved that my heart feels like a knife is being twisted. I wish I could carry the Qingfeng sword and kill all the Eastern captives." , to comfort the people of Liaodong..." The minister said in tears, with a sad expression, which also infected other ministers, and other ministers also came out to express that this was a tear-jerking song.

"That is to say, do you agree that this song is a good song?" Yang Reform asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the court is a place to discuss state affairs. It needs to be solemn and serious. How can we sing these sad and sad tunes? Isn't it too childish? How can state affairs continue?" A minister objected .

Yang Reform did not show any weakness, he glanced at his own Saint Liu Jishan, Liu Jishan immediately understood, stood up, and said: "Your Majesty, I think that the court needs to sing this song precisely because of this The song is extremely sad and desolate, so it can let the princes of the court know the sorrow and misery of the people, and know the suffering of the people. In this way, let the princes of the court always remember the people in their hearts, When dealing with state affairs, you will always put the people first, and always put the court first.”

Liu Jishan is not a good person either, as soon as he came up, he hit the nail on the head and made the singing a major matter related to the country. A group of ministers below were so angry that they were going crazy. Do people live?However, Liu Jishan's reason was very aboveboard, and he didn't know where to refute it.

A minister was driven mad by Liu Jishan, so he stood up and said wildly: "Liu Jishan, you villain, you don't talk about righteousness, deceive the emperor, flatter your horse, show off your way of playing in the court, delay the military and state affairs, harm the country and the people, you Can you afford to suffer? In the future, people in the world will probably try to pick your skin off..." The minister went crazy, and even used foul language in the courtroom.

Yang Reform has not heard other people swearing for a long time. Now that he is the emperor, all he hears are gentle and refined words. He has almost forgotten what swearing is like. Hearing this minister swearing today, I think it is quite "Dear.But his face was not friendly, and he said with a cold face: "Debate is debate, why do you speak so arrogantly, do you still have me as the king in your eyes? Come on! Get me out."

The guards on the left and right did not hesitate to pick up this raving guy and dragged him out of the hall. Only then did this guy remember what he had said, and he begged for mercy loudly, but none of the ministers came out to intercede. According to the discussion, the emperor just forks out, which is already light enough, if the emperor gets angry if he begs for mercy, the result will be even worse.

"Everyone accept this proposal." The hall fell silent, and Yang Huai gave an order, and resumed his work.

An old minister standing in the front row stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I think this song is too sad and should not be sung in this solemn and sacred place. Instead, it can be arranged to be sung in other places. In this way, you can also receive reminders." All the adults in the court and the people still have the effect of suffering, I wonder what your Majesty thinks?"

The old minister proposed a compromise solution. This song is "not bad", which can make the ministers in the court remember the sufferings of the people at all times, but it is not sung on the morning of the court.Both sides take a step back.

As soon as the minister finished speaking, the other ministers immediately followed up and said that this compromise solution could be used.This plan is good.At least you don't have to sing it in the early morning.

Yang Reform smiled and said: "Hehe, dear friends, let's not talk about this for now, let's listen to another song and talk about it."

Wang Chengen immediately ordered the little eunuch, and after a while, another song was sung outside the hall.

This song is "My Homeland" adapted by Yang Reform, and it is now called "My Hometown".

It was also three times. After listening to this song, the expressions of the ministers became much more peaceful, and many of them hummed softly along with the beat.

After singing, Yang Reform asked, "How is this song?"

A minister came out and played: "Returning to Your Majesty, this song is peaceful, warm and natural, and reminds people of the beauty of this hometown. Listening to the meaning of this song, is it also related to Liaodong?"

"This dear lady is right. These two songs were sung by my 'chorus'. A few days ago, I sent a labor force's 'choir' to Dongjiang, and they sang these songs. Song, yesterday, I was rewarded. I said yes, these two songs were sung on the Dongjiang Shuangdao. At that time, all the listeners shed tears. Tens of thousands of people cried together. The people, all the generals and soldiers, after listening to the song, shouted to fight back to Liaodong, and vowed not to be at odds with the Eastern captives. The bloody battle to the end, I thought, these two songs can boost the hearts of the people and the morale of the army. It's a good song, so I'm going to let everyone in the court listen to it, learn from it, feel the feelings of Dongjiang's elders, the suffering of Dongjiang people, and encourage everyone in the court to never forget to lose their belly and lose ground, so as to comfort the suffering Dongjiang Father."

After Yang Reform said some affectionate words, all the ministers understood what was going on. It turned out that the emperor had already sent people to Dongjiang to work in the army, and he actually used two songs to achieve such good results. Show off in the hall, this emperor is still a child, he has good things, and he has to show off before he is willing to give up!Some old officials shook their heads and laughed inwardly for a while.

The ministers understood the meaning of the emperor, and they all came out to play: "His Majesty, Your Majesty is really a wise sage, a genius of heaven, two songs can be worth tens of thousands of troops, and 10 taels of silver!"

"Your Majesty Shengming..."

"Your Majesty is wise..."

"Your Majesty is a great talent..."

A group of ministers took turns to flatter.

Yang Reform was very happy. His reorganization had finally seen the effect, and his thoughts were not in vain. What was even more gratifying was that Mao Wenlong finally made up his mind after seeing the effect of his choir singing. I secretly reported that this island cannot support so many people, and I also ask His Majesty to take those who cannot be supported on the island to land. The military on this island will definitely be arranged according to the emperor's wishes, and no more soldiers will be recruited. , Conceal one more soldier, and fight wherever the emperor asks.

Its true meaning is to surrender to the emperor.After Mao Wenlong saw the emperor's methods, he felt that the emperor was a bit reliable. He spent money generously, was reliable, and was very knowledgeable in military affairs. , the hearts of the people and the army on this island have already been pulled away. As long as the emperor waved again, most people would follow the emperor. Instead of being pulled away passively, it is better to take the initiative. , decided to "lose sincerity" to the emperor.

Yang Reform knew that he, Mao Wenlong, would always rely on Daming. He still valued and relied on the emperor and the Ming Dynasty in his heart, and it was impossible to rely on wild boar skin. Live and prove to himself his loyalty.

Of course, in the secret report, there is no need to discuss with the courtiers about the relocation of the soldiers and civilians on the island. There is no need to discuss the emperor's affairs with the ministers.

Yang Reform's two songs "settled" Mao Wenlong, so he was naturally happy and showed off, so the officials suffered.

……

"That is to say, all the lovers agree?" Yang Reform asked with a smile.

Ministers, look at me, I look at you, I don’t know what to say, I fell into the trap of the emperor, just now I said that the emperor is wise and flattering the emperor, now I have to say something I don’t agree with, and I can’t say it .

"My dear friends, would you like to feel the misery of the Dongjiang people in the first song, or would you like to sing the warmth of your hometown in the second song? I don't make it difficult for you, as long as you choose one song to sing, let us, the monarchs and ministers, remember it every day. , there are still territories in the world that have not been restored, and there are still miserable people in the world waiting for me to appease and rescue..."

"Your Majesty, I will choose the second one..." A minister jumped out impatiently and chose the second one.This second song is obviously much stronger than the first one. Listening to that kind of sad tune every day will kill you!

"Hehe, since the second song is selected, let's do it this way. In the future, in the early court, I will use this song to inspire you all." There is no way to deal with it, and it is not impossible to play with applause!
……

The opening is over.Yang Reform won this round.

The business begins.

"Report to Your Majesty, the subject has a book to play." The official business began, and the courtiers also hurriedly reported to the emperor what they had accumulated in the past few days.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"Report to Your Majesty, I request that Your Majesty pay tribute to Zou Yuanbiao, Gao Panlong, the Censor of Zuodu, Yang Lian, Censor of Zuoqian, Zuo Guangdou, Censor of Zuoqian..." The minister read the names and names of more than a dozen people in one breath. duty.

Yang Reform didn't understand it at first, and it was just an ordinary personnel pension. Yang Reform has encountered several such incidents, some retired, and some former veterans died. These will give some pensions.But this time, obviously, something special.When he heard Zuo Guangdou, Yang Reform immediately understood.

Isn't this Zuo Guangdou the one who was murdered by the Donglin Party?It seems that I have to quickly settle the Wei case!This guy seems to want to give an explanation or something.In other words, the Donglin Party is ready to demand power from itself?

Yang Reform thought for a while, and said: "Yes." This matter is always to be overturned by the Donglin Party. People are still being wronged. The Donglin Party began to claim power in the court and began to dominate the court. According to history, it should have started from this time.

Yang Reform thought, this incident should be a signal from the Donglin Party that they want this to be in power in the court.You have to step up your defenses!In view of the fact that the "historical achievements" of the Donglin Party in the future are too bad, Yang Reform has already made preparations as much as possible. For example, the Wei case will be dealt with lightly. Delay the time for the rise of the Donglin Party, balance the court, give yourself some time, win over a group of your own direct descendants, cultivate your own group of core figures, and avoid being ostracized by the Donglin Party.

Seeing that the emperor said "Yes" very neatly, many ministers below breathed a sigh of relief.Decided, it is still possible to cooperate and praise the emperor, after all, the emperor is interesting enough.

In fact, the battle of wits with the Donglin Party has just begun.

This frustrating incident passed quickly.

After a while, an old minister came out and played: "I would like to report to Your Majesty, I have a plan to alleviate the drought. I don't know whether to talk about it or not."

Yang Reform was also puzzled, what high technology could the Ming Dynasty fail to achieve?Can it also alleviate drought?This is a problem that cannot be solved in the 21st century!In later generations, at most, it is to relieve the losses caused by drought, and I have never heard of it being able to avoid drought.At most, it was a few anti-aircraft guns that rained rain.Could it be that aliens appeared in the Ming Dynasty?Zentraedi technology exists?

"This Qing family, what countermeasures do you have? Just tell me." Yang Reform wanted to see what kind of magic weapon this minister had.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this strategy is also simple. To alleviate the drought, why not order Zhengyi Zhenren Zhang Xianyong to pray for rain? Thinking that Zhengyi Zhenren Zhang Xianyong is a real person appointed by the court, ordering him to pray for rain will surely bring rain and relieve the drought! "The veteran said solemnly.

Yang Reform almost burst out laughing, damn it, you asked me to pray for rain in a drought, isn’t that bullshit?Superstition, pure superstition, all the ministers in the court believe in superstition. It seems that the ancient superstition market is still quite large. From this point of view, the methods used by these ministers to deal with government affairs are sometimes unreliable.

Yang Reform laughed in his stomach for a long time, but he couldn't help but stop laughing. After a while, he calmed down and said, "Ai Qing, do you think it's useful?" Yang Reform thought to himself, this superstition is reliable, mother Pigs can climb trees!It seems that I need to fight against a dozen feudal superstitions in the Ming Dynasty, um, wait for that, I should stop fighting the feudalism, I am the leader of the feudalism, I can only fight superstitions, so that the four modernizations can be realized in the Ming Dynasty as soon as possible ￥#@&...

The old minister said: "Returning to Your Majesty, I think this real person Zhang Xianyong is a generation of celestial masters, who was conferred by the imperial court, how could it be useless?"

Uh!What this old minister said was quite profound. Can someone who is appointed by the court be able to pray for rain?Then in the Ming Dynasty, I will seal ten or twenty of them, each of whom will be stationed in a county, and go to Shaanxi to pray for rain every day, so the peasant rebellion at the end of Ming Dynasty will not exist?Isn't this bullshit?A generation of celestial masters can pray for rain?Drought relief?This is the regulation?This is not a fantasy plane, nor is it a cultivation plane. If such a thing exists, don't fool me.I was born in New China and grew up under the red flag of the new socialist youth, the least superstitious.Wait, there seems to be other meanings in his words...Yang Reform didn't understand for a while.

[Today there are nearly [-] words, hehe, everyone who has votes will count the votes or something.Thank you very much! 】
