Chapter 313: There are really no rules
Su Guiren is very knowledgeable, after the little emperor said this, she was very smart and did not go to coquettish or say more, but turned around and left directly.
Soon, there were only three people left here: Mu Xiaojiu, the Little Emperor and Father-in-law Kui.
"Okay, Xiao Jiu, what can I say now." Talking about important matters, the little emperor instantly sat upright.
"Your Majesty, it's been a while since the last time the minister had a secret conversation with you in the imperial study, and I don't know how much you did to deal with the methods you told you at the beginning?" Mu Xiaojiu didn't say anything else first, but moved out the things that were secretly discussed in the study at the beginning.
The little emperor was stunned for a moment, and then frowned and said: "I have been working on the banditry, but there are many people who oppose it in the court. Many ministers felt that these bandits were extremely vicious, and if they were recruited, they would only raise tigers, so the progress was not smooth. ”
"The matter of the courtiers is even more difficult, although there has been a lot of rectification before, but after all, the officials of the DPRK and China have the custom of forming a party, and they will affect the whole body. In the absence of any serious sin, it is difficult for me to punish them severely. ”
"As for the foreign clans, this one is relatively smoother, and the Khitan, who has already lost a lot of power, has completely reconciled with us after this period of time. However, this time the foreign forces invaded on a large scale, and the Khitan was directly crippled, and even the territory had disappeared. Today's Khitan is really useless. ”
Mu Xiaojiu smiled, and then said again: "These things that have happened in the Central Plains recently, I guess Your Majesty also has some thoughts in your heart. ”
The emperor's brows furrowed even deeper, he really couldn't figure out what Mu Xiaojiu's way of speaking was for, but he still said it according to his words.
"Well, the assassination of the people in the rivers and lakes by the blood list, the assassination of hundreds of civil and military officials of the imperial court at the same time, and the wanton attack of foreign forces, all this time is completely the same, it is obvious that this time the matter is dominated by foreign forces behind the scenes."
Mu Xiaojiu nodded, "That's right, Your Majesty's eyes are really like torches." ”
After filming such a very substandard sycophant and making the little emperor and even Grandpa Kui laugh, Mu Xiaojiu also laughed and said, "However, although this matter has disadvantages, it is actually good." ”
"Oh? What does this mean? The little emperor's interest was suddenly aroused by Mu Xiaojiu's words, he really couldn't imagine what any benefit this matter could have.
"Your Majesty, think about it, among those ways to deal with it, the courtier's link can be said to be the most difficult to solve, right?" Seeing the little emperor's doubts, Mu Xiaojiu said bluntly.
At this moment, the little emperor finally suddenly realized, "So that's the case, I understand, although this time the civil and military officials of the court have been assassinated, but it is not only the good ministers who have been assassinated, but also the ......" As he spoke, the little emperor stopped talking again, because no matter whether it was a good minister or a traitor, it was a loss to the Central Plains after all, and to be honest, although Cai Jing, the minister of power, was in charge, but in fact, under good governance, there were not many traitors. Even Cai Jing can only say that he is a powerful minister, not a traitor.
The Cai Jing of this world is different from the Cai Jing in history, there is a little emperor who works hard to suppress the country, there is the god Marquis Zhuge who is fighting against me, and there are martial arts heroes and civil and military officials to supervise. In this case, although Cai Jing still has the heart to gain power, he has not embarked on the road of disobedience, and he is actually a talented person, so under all kinds of suppression, although he is still a little extravagant and authoritarian as the prime minister, he can't do too much.
Cai Jing is still like this, let alone someone else?
Mu Xiaojiu shook his head, "Your Majesty, you still don't understand what I mean. ”
The little emperor glanced at Mu Xiaojiu, and a little displeasure rose in his heart, if there is anything you say, here is chirping, Lao Tzu doesn't understand and blames me.
Mu Xiaojiu also knew that there was enough foreshadowing, and if it continued like this for a while, the little emperor would really have to the four treasures of the study and beat people.
"Your Majesty, think about it, what is the biggest obstacle to the troubles of the courtiers? It's a party for personal gain! Now that they have been assassinated in such an involuntary way, the party they have formed has long been on the verge of falling apart. To put it bluntly, they can't protect themselves now, partisanship? What's the use of wanting a partisanship? So at times like this, you should do both. First, on the surface, you want to intensify your repression, and use this to undermine the party affiliation of those people by making harmless personnel transfers on the grounds that officials have died too much. At the same time, promote your people. Don't officials like to form parties? You let them play like this, promote your own people, and let your people form a pro-emperor faction in the court to restrain the other factions. ”
"Second, secretly, you can take advantage of this opportunity to assassinate those corrupt people one by one without destroying the operation of the imperial court."
"Third, between light and darkness, you still have my exclusive power, as a special envoy, I have the right to investigate and punish officials below the fifth grade, and officials below the seventh grade can be cut first and then played. In this way, I can do things in the open and in the dark, and I will do all those corrupt officials and corrupt officials below the seventh grade, and those who have scavenged the people's fat and ointment. ”
The three countermeasures were said one by one, and the little emperor's face had changed greatly when he heard it, and his head was full of sweat.
"This ...... This...... Mu Qing's family, isn't this not very good? ”
Mu Xiaojiu shook his head, "When it is extraordinary, do extraordinary things, now since there are internal and external troubles, if you don't talk about the outside, you must first settle the inside, but such a good opportunity is really not to be missed." Although the imperial court has died a lot of civil and military officials, and there is emptiness inside, I believe that there are thousands of talents in the world, and there will always be corresponding talents when you give an order. And I advise you, reuse the player. Players have different identities in reality, and there are many people who have made a difference in their official careers, and after these people take office, they can quickly get their work back on track with a short period of running-in. ”
"And nowadays, there are too many officials and too many official positions, in fact, there are many people who don't need them at all, so you can take this opportunity to streamline the officials by the way, and remove the chaff."
The little emperor pondered again and again, and finally waved his hand, "This matter, Rong Zhen will think about it first, and the first article will be implemented." But the second and third rules, although they are good policies, are not good after all, and I still have to consider one or two. ”
Mu Xiaojiu nodded and didn't say anything more.
"After talking about internal troubles, I will talk to Your Majesty about this external trouble."
"Speaking of which, foreign invasions are not to be feared, although they are united in a big way, they alone are not wolves, because they are not united."
"To put it bluntly, they want to invade the Central Plains, but they also have to watch out for their allies, for thousands of years, I don't know how many alliances have been like this, they can be rich and noble, but there is no way to share the hardships. Even once provoked, contradictions are likely to arise. ”
The little emperor's eyes lit up, "So, what does the Yiqing family mean, do you want to do that method of sowing discord?" ”
"That's right, that's one of them." Mu Xiaojiu laughed, "There is another one. ”
"Second, if they can assassinate us, can't we assassinate them? They attack us, and they still have to rely on the power of our Central Plains, but if we want to attack them, there are tens of millions of warriors and patriots in the Central Plains, and Your Majesty only needs an edict, so why worry about no one? ”
"Third, I hope that Your Majesty can borrow the strength of the Central Plains martial arts, call on the martial arts to form a martial arts alliance, and go to the battlefield.
The emperor suddenly laughed, "Okay, these three plans are good, tomorrow morning, Aiqing will go to the court together, tell these three plans, and discuss them with the hundred officials." ”
Mu Xiaojiu blinked, "Your Majesty, what time do we usually go to the morning court." ”
The little emperor thought for a moment, and then said, "The words of the ministers...... It seems that the third watch day is about to come to the palace gate and wait, but don't worry, since the time of my father, the waiting courtyard has been built, specially for the ministers to rest. And I heard Shenhou say that there are a lot of breakfast stalls at the gate of the courtyard, so you don't have to worry about not having to eat. ”
Mu Xiaojiu's eyes were about to roll to the sky, "Your Majesty, the third watch?" Are you sure? That's the time, I can't sleep tonight. It's almost time now, I remember when I went out......
The little emperor frowned, "It seems to be the same, then don't leave Mu Qing's house tonight, go to the imperial study and chat with me, and when the time comes, you will accompany me to the court." ”
Father-in-law Aoi, who was standing on the side, smiled lightly, his own master really doesn't take the rules seriously, how can he let the ministers spend the night in the palace? This Mu Lord's face obviously changed, but he didn't know if he understood the rules, and he still wanted to go back to sleep.
However, although Father-in-law Kwai felt that the little emperor's behavior was a bit out of line with etiquette, Father-in-law Kwai would not say it. He has served three generations of emperors, but this little emperor is his favorite one. In fact, in his heart, Grandpa Kui treats this little emperor as his own child, and he doesn't bother to care about the rules or something. Besides, this Lord Mu is about the same age as the little emperor, and his mind is smart and his martial arts are also good, if His Majesty can be closer to this Lord Mu, it will indeed be a powerful arm.
Before you know it, this old guy is also in his eighties, and he may be buried in a few years. Although it is said that Xiaohuazi is watching, Xiaohuazi is a minister after all, and someone must take care of the outside affairs.
Zhuge is my old boy, sometimes I put myself too high......
Just thinking about it, Gonggong Kui heard that the little emperor didn't wait for Mu Xiaojiu to speak, so he said again: "Okay, it's decided, Mu Qing's family, follow me to the imperial study." ”
