Chapter 163: The Rule of the Ming Dynasty

Li Bing said: "The upper is the rule and the lower rule, and there is no one who hears the upper and lower is not cured, Your Majesty only needs to bow down and introspect, select the virtuous and appointed, and the virtuous are in the court, even if there are small troubles, it will not hinder the overall situation." ”

The thorns in Li Bing's words at this moment became more and more sharp.

This is also due to one of Zhu Qizhen's styles.

Since Zhu Qizhen ascended the throne, what does he look like in secret, but the matter of Corporal Lixian has been done enough, and most of the ministers who saw the emperor before kneeling played it, and from Zhu Qizhen, it became sitting on a chair.

If it was just at the beginning, these ministers did not dare to sit down. But now, they have become at ease.

There is nothing to sin in.

Therefore, the statements of these ministers are becoming more and more bold.

Zhu Qizhen smiled lightly, he knew that what Li Bing said was not unreasonable, the so-called upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked, but the upper beam is correct and the lower beam will be correct?

Confucians like to think of this as a moral issue, but it's not quite.

Even if you lead by example, will you be able to go up and down?

It's too good to think about it.

Zhu Qizhen said lightly: "Is this really ----?" Zhu Qizhen's face was slightly cold, his eyes fell on Li Bing's eyes, Li Bing's eyes suddenly glanced, and he didn't dare to look at Zhu Qizhen.

How is Daming officialdom?

Zhu Qizhen may not have experienced it personally, but he also has a bottom in his heart, he really thinks that the inside is as clear as water, and everyone is morally perfect?

.

All Zhu Qizhen's actions are just to ensure that the dozens of bigwigs at the top of the Ming Dynasty are not insatiable, and the people in the position of Shoufu are not people who abolish the public for personal reasons.

As for the time when these ministers started their careers below, some of them were certainly penniless, and they were Qing officials. It's like Li Bing, but with a little oil and water, after a few hairs, Zhu Qizhen also turned a blind eye.

Because he knew that what he found was absolutely a drop in the bucket.

Of course, when it comes to the status of the six ministers of the cabinet, they are all the key monitoring objects of Jinyi Weidong Factory. You can relax a little before, but if you dare to do so in this position?

Don't blame Zhu Qizhen for being spicy.

Although the orthodoxy has not disposed of a single scholar or scholar, many of the ministers in the Nine Emperors have been cleaned up.

But that's about it.

The following governor is powerful and blessed, but he is the Yin of the Destruction of the Sect, and the county is broken, how many are there? Zhu Qizhen is not very clear, as if Zhu Qizhen does not know how many bandits there are in Daming.

Zhu Qizhen got up slowly, and on the bookshelf on the side, he took out a copy of this case, and one by one fell on the ground, getting heavier and heavier, and it sounded like he was smashing something outside the door.

The big and small eunuchs didn't dare to make a sound, and they were silent

language, as if he was afraid that as soon as he breathed, he would be pulled down and killed.

Zhu Qizhen said: "This is my Ming court's order, and this is my Ming Dynasty's protégé." Qing is a heavenly official of the Ministry of Officials, weighing the talents of the world, what do you think? ”

Li Bing had a bitter taste in his mouth.

He stood up and saluted without a crown, and said, "The minister is guilty, please deal with it Your Majesty." ”

This is Zhu Qizhen's greatest privilege to his courtiers, that is, to always grasp the initiative.

For any courtier, Zhu Qizhen has the ability to quickly find the handle. Of course, Zhu Qizhen did not deliberately seize the handle of the courtiers.

But Zhu Qizhen naturally has the right to define right and wrong, and with this power, he doesn't know how to target every minister, so he is too incompetent.

What Zhu Qizhen showed Li Bing were all major and important cases that had been rumored all over the world in recent years.

A lot of things are appalling.

If you turn it out, it will naturally be better words, and here are only two cases, one is the case of Xu Cong in Ji'an County.

Xu Cong was in Ji'an County. Torture was abused, and some people did not deal with Xu Cong, Xu Cong was killed, and more than 100 people were punished.

The seriousness of this case can be compared to the Fuwei Dart Bureau case at the beginning of Xiaoao Jianghu, which is still a court official from Jinshi, which is simply outrageous.

What made Zhu Qizhen even more restless was that the reason why this case came out was that Xu Cong was disrespectful to Shangguan Xia Shichen.

If there is no officialdom conflict, I don't know when it will come out.

Or how many county orders like Xu Cong are entrenched in the local area and endanger the world.

The other is the case of Qian Pu, a bachelor from Hanlin.

This case was investigated and handled by Liu Ding.

Without him, the Hanlin bachelor is too lawless, his family is from Yangzhou, and although the Hanlin bachelor is mostly a false title, his status in the court is only slightly worse than that of the servants of various ministries.

You must know that although Zhu Qizhen has proposed many local governors and governors into the cabinet, Hanlin Bachelor is naturally qualified to enter the cabinet. This can be regarded as an unspoken rule of Ming officialdom.

Hallym is almost an alternative to a Cabinet Fellow. If Zhu Qizhen wants to change the cabinet, in theory, Qian Pu can also be included in the cabinet candidate list.

Of course, theory is theory, and reality is practice. But even so, his political status is not bad at all, although he may not be in the first row now, but the first three rows must be there.

It is precisely because of this status and power that Qian Pu intervened in the salt administration and embezzled state taxes. The amount was huge, so huge that when Liu Dingzhi checked the account books of the household department, he obviously felt that there was a gap.

That's why I strongly advocated taking it down.

Of the two cases, one being the largest, almost all went to the cabinet. One is very small, but it is only a county order.

But the nature is just as bad.

Zhu Qizhen has never relaxed on the rule of officials.

It's just that it's useless to rule such a thing, and the storm is useless. A gust of wind passed, and the people below were just sheltering from the limelight.

And it is impossible for Zhu Qizhen to always focus on the rule of officials.

In this matter, it is a sentence of Lao Tzu: "Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh." "That is not to be relaxed, which is why the atmosphere of Daming officialdom is barely maintained in a similar atmosphere.

Many things, Zhu Qizhen is also powerful and has no place to use.

Of course, Zhu Qizhen said that these problems were all problems of the officials, which would be too wronged.

The Ming court is not just one person, the work of the officials is important, but to say that the world is not well governed, it is all a matter of the rule of officials, which in itself is a strong argument.

However, Zhu Qizhen, as the emperor, has the power to use strong words.

Li Zheng is very upright, and in terms of personal ethics, there is nothing wrong with him. But in the face of Zhu Qizhen's accountability, Li Bing wanted to argue, but he didn't say a word.

He knew it wasn't either.

However, Zhu Qizhen naturally won't take Li Bing because of this, because this is not enough to convince the world, but it is okay to use this as a topic to play.

Zhu Qizhen said: "The people who read the books of the sages in the Ming Dynasty are still shameless to the point that they are all lowly, and they have a lot of ethics. Putting the people in the midst of fire and water is my fault. ”

"The sin of the minister deserves death." Li Bing could only kowtow again.

The so-called lord worries about the humiliation of the ministers, Zhu Qizhen seems to blame himself, but Li Bing feels that he is blaming him.

Zhu Qizhen said: "This is not Mr.'s fault, it's just a matter of the law, don't talk about him in advance, the Ming officialdom has to be rectified." ”

"Only when the people of the world are safe, can I be safe, and if I want the people of the world to be safe, we must clean up the black sheep among the hundreds of officials."

"In the past, the Beijing inspection was held once every six years, but I thought that the strength was not enough, and I wanted to take the Ministry of Officials as the head and gather the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Criminal Department, Jinyiwei, and Dongchang to work together to review the officials of the world."

"Only in this way can we not indulge in vain. Let the people rest assured, I can also rest assured, this matter, handed over to others, I don't feel at ease, only friendship, I can rest assured. ”

"What do you think, sir?"

Li Bing listened, only to feel a "buzz" on his head. Raising his head and looking at Zhu Qizhen, he seemed to be kind, but in fact he had a very cold expression, and for a while he only felt something in his throat swelling up, but he couldn't speak.

He could only slowly kowtow again and said, "If the minister obeys the order, he will definitely live up to His Majesty's proper, and he will not indulge in vain." Find out the black sheep for the people of the world. ”

Li Bing didn't know what it was like in his heart, because he knew that this was His Majesty to his death, and he had to jump down.

Because a gentleman can be deceived in a way.
