Chapter 604: The pinnacle of Jinyiwei's power

Will Da Ming lose?

That's a great question.

Zhu Di slowly stood up and stared at Xie Guangtai, at this moment Zhu Di no longer has so much anger, or rather, Zhu Di only has sorrow left, is this my courtier?

How stupid!

He sneered: "If you are allowed to succeed, Da Ming will naturally fail, and it will be a fiasco, tens of thousands of soldiers will die tragically, hundreds of thousands of border people will be miserable, and the consequences will be unimaginable!" It's just that you people are not destined to succeed! I have God's blessing! ”

"Wait!"

Zhu Di pointed at Xie Guangtai, "-There is also a heavenly punishment!" Come on, drag him down! ”

Jin Yiwei rushed up, held Xie Guangtai down, and dragged him down. And he seemed to have just woken up like a dream, and he wailed loudly desperately, "Your Majesty, the criminal minister has been framed tenfold, and the criminal minister is loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and the criminal minister is spared......"

He still wanted to shout, but he was grabbed by the brocade guard and plucked the bones, this guy could only make a whining sound in his throat, a pair of eyes were out of the sockets, and his face turned a terrible pig liver color, hideous and contemptible......

Jinyiwei dragged Xie Guangtai away, Zhu Di fell his eyes on the officials present, the majestic gaze, patrolling by, every minister lowered his head, did not dare to look at the Son of Heaven, the more Zhu Di thought about it, the more irritated he became, just such a thing, he could pass the imperial examination, be selected into Hanlin, and become the prince of the dynasty.

If he hadn't found out and really made him climb to a high position, what would happen to Daming in the future, I really can't imagine it!

"Liu Chun, you handled this case, what do you know?"

Liu Chun's face was strained, unprecedentedly serious, "Your Majesty, if you let the ministers talk, I'm afraid that you will feel too much." ”

"As long as it makes sense, the more the merrier!"

Liu Chun nodded, "First of all, what the minister wants to talk about is our Ministry of Rites, who are responsible for entertaining Siyi and handling the affairs of the vassal state. However, when the minister went to ask the officials of the Ministry of Rites what was the situation of Annan, no one could answer, and some even suggested that the minister ask the merchants of Annan! ”

Liu Chun smiled helplessly, "Knowing yourself and knowing your opponent, you will not be defeated in a hundred battles." Such a military event, our officials don't know anything, and the ministers really don't know what to say! ”

Zhu Di snorted angrily: "The corpse vegetarian meal is what I am talking about!" Do you know why I wanted to hide from everyone and let the Duke of Haiguo suddenly attack Annam? It's because I know that in the Ming Dynasty, there are no secrets at all! ”

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu Jianyi's forehead sweated, and he fell to his knees, "Your Majesty, the minister is guilty, and the minister deserves death." ”

Zhu Di didn't bother to listen to it at all, there were too many such.

Liu Chun said slowly: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Jian Shangshu can't be blamed, all along, we have handed over the power to deal with the affairs of the Four Yi to the Ministry of Rites. To put it bluntly, I just feel that dealing with Siyi is like a family ushering in. Moreover, we were just waiting for people to come to the door, and we didn't want to go out and have a look. A typical high-minded big family mentality, but have we thought about it? In people's exchanges, at most close the door, cut the robe and cut off righteousness. What about the country? As long as the knife is used, there will be rivers of blood, and millions of people will be affected by this, is it reasonable to be so negligent? ”

"Maybe there are still people who despise the Siyi and think that they are all a group of out-of-town savages, and they are not worth mentioning."

"But you're wrong! Take Annan as an example, the Yuan Dynasty attacked three times, each time with hundreds of thousands of troops, especially the second crusade, which almost wiped out Annan. The hatred of destroying the country, the hatred of gnashing teeth, even if Annan doesn't have the courage to take revenge, can they still not take precautions? In order to survive, they also have to be careful to approach our officials and probe the details of the Ming Dynasty. Ladies and gentlemen, do you still think Xie Guangtai is accidental? ”

"No, it's not! I don't know when it began, but Annan was studying us and looking for an opportunity to start. We can accuse the Annanites of being cunning, but we must also know that they will use any means to survive in order to survive. ”

Liu Chun took a deep breath and continued, "What about us? Arrogant, without the slightest vigilance, many people have Xie Guangtai-style naΓ―ve thoughts. Literati are officials, but after becoming officials, they are literati! ”

"The piano and the seer are compatible, the bosom friend is hard to find, and someone takes the initiative to pounce, and the brain is dizzy, I don't know the east, west, north and south, and there is no vigilance at all. Some people have been confused, but some people have long been clear, but if they are used to it, they are used to it, and they can't control themselves when they send a lot of money to other beautiful women, and they are obviously traitors and collaborators with the enemy, but they make up a lot of ridiculous reasons to rub their rouge and powder, isn't it ridiculous? ”

Liu Chun's words can be regarded as completely to the point.

Since the imperial examination, literati have been officials, and officials have also carried the popularity of literati, and these people are collectively called scholars.

It cannot be denied that there are a lot of talented people among them, but there are also many who are very stupid, their knowledge is limited to books, and they are very arrogant and even narcissistic.

I feel like the world has to revolve around me.

Beauty throws herself into her arms, and money comes to her door, which is a matter of course. There is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book! They are scholars, they are great talents, and they deserve to enjoy these things.

Another point is that most literati have a common problem, which is that they are selfish and small-minded, and they are generally refined egoists.

In many cases, they only think of their own greatness, and they do not realize the great interests of the country in the slightest.

The so-called righteousness is not all prejudice.

Many literati are lamenting that they don't meet talents, but in fact, most literati have no talents to meet and can't do anything. Just like in many classrooms, all I hear are the complaints of professors and tutors, especially liberal arts majors, who scold this and belittle that, and feel that they are better than anyone else.

But in fact, as long as they are given a little power, it can be as big as helping relatives and friends through the back door, and as small as the distribution of financial aid...... Privately teach and receive, according to your own preferences, where there are many.

If they are really allowed to become officials, it will definitely be a tragedy within a tragedy.

Xie Guangtai's case is not complicated, but there are too many things to reflect on.

The most important one is the rule of officials!

Zhu Di pondered for a long time, and then slowly spoke: "The puppet emperor Zhu Yunwen once was proud of his lenient government, saying that his lenient government relieved Emperor Taizu's severe frost, and there was even a group of shameless people who boasted of lenient and benevolent governance. But this case, together with the previous Xu Wang case, has already revealed the situation of the officials. ”

"Governing the country, especially the rulers! It must not be lenient, let alone benevolent! The most important thing is to count on the self-discipline of all officials. I do not deny that there are many honest and self-disciplined officials in the DPRK and China, good officials. But anyone has weaknesses and needs to correct mistakes in a timely manner. ”

Zhu Di stood up, walked to the middle of the ministers, and said loudly: "Kedao Yanguan, in the middle of the imperial history, countless pairs of eyes are staring at me. Every move will be blamed. I think this is necessary, and as the Son of Heaven, I should lead by example. I shoulder the ancestral inheritance, Kyushu and thousands of squares, hundreds of millions of people, are all on my shoulders. I can't make mistakes! ”

Zhu Di said with emotion: "But then again, what about the civil and military officials? In this Golden Palace, the least official is also the prefect, the prefect, the parent official, and the real Baili Hou! Govern hundreds of thousands of people. ”

"What will happen if such an official is unrestrained and wantonly comes around? The common people often say that the crow stands in the ...... On the top of the dolphin, I saw that others were black, but I didn't see myself black! I advise everyone to reflect on it, think about what you are doing wrong, restrain yourself, control your family, especially some seemingly casual habits, you always let me prevent the slightest mistake, but when it is your turn, you can't be informal, right? Talented and beautiful, mountains and rivers, this is something in the book. If anyone dares to take these things for granted, then go and be your talented hermit, and don't enter the court as an official! ”

"Since you are wearing this official uniform, you must restrain your words and deeds, especially don't be blinded by wealth, otherwise, no one will be able to save you!"

Zhu Di's reprimand, coupled with Liu Chun's analysis just now, every sentence had a thousand weights, and it fell on the heads of all the officials, pressing everyone to their knees.

"Your Majesty's hadith, the ministers must be cautious in their words and deeds, and guard against the slightest deterioration."

Seeing the ministers kneeling down to express their attitude, Zhu Di softened his tone a little.

"If a person is not a sage, he can do no wrong. I also know that I may not be able to manage well on my own. Therefore, I will find you someone to supervise you well. ”

Hearing this, all the courtiers were startled, and their hearts quickly lifted, they were going to be broken!

Sure enough, Zhu Di said to Liu Chun: "Check the six departments and nine secretaries, and the thirteen political envoys, and there is a science and technology to give the matter." But who will supervise the officials? They won't work on their own. Therefore, Jinyiwei will take on this responsibility from now on. ”

"The corruption and bribery of hundreds of officials, whether they have befriended bandits, whether they have selflessly given and received from each other, and even if they are in contact with foreign countries, as long as they violate the laws of the imperial court, they must be thoroughly investigated, and they must not be tolerated and adulterous!"

Boy!

The eyes of the hundred officials widened, what kind of power is this, from now on, the entire officialdom will tremble at the feet of Jinyiwei.

Above the court, there are not many officials who dare to speak, especially Xie Guangtai's case made Zhu Di seize the opportunity, who dares to oppose supervision?

At this time, only Zuodu Yushi, the old thief Yao Guangxiao, still has the right to speak.

"Your Majesty, if you arrange the Jinyi Guard like this, what should the Daoist Officer be responsible for? Is there a problem of ultra vires? "The old thief is powerful enough, and he directly said that the authority of Jinyiwei is too big and the management is too wide.

Liu Chun said with a smile: "Lord Yao, what Your Majesty said is very clear, Jinyiwei manages the private morality of hundreds of officials and whether there is any illegality, and the Kedao Yan official supervises the gains and losses of the government affairs of the six ministries and thirteen provinces, isn't it very clear?" ”

Dao Yan grinned bitterly, it was indeed very clear, but the problem was that the quality of the Daoyan officials was worrying, except for being able to stare at trivial things and keep talking, they had no achievements in national politics. If there is really such a division of labor, Kedao is almost useless.

Of course, Zhu Di knew that he was going to ring the alarm for hundreds of officials.

"That's it, retreat!"
