My Brother-in-law is the Prince Chapter 336

  Chapter 336 Scapegoat

  Yang Pu said everything.

  In fact, he is very clear that this is a problem of trust.

  Yang Pu was born in the Imperial Academy, and later entered the East Palace. It can be said that he is a scholar with a strong root.

   Such a person, making suggestions, Zhang Anshi is indeed a little worried.

  Yang Pu's answer is actually the most difficult, because if he directly said that I fully agree with the Taiping government's new policy, it would be shameless.

  Because of such a scholar, it is difficult to change the concept. Even Yang Rong observed step by step, and even went to the counties of Taiping Prefecture to search for it. Only then did he feel that the new policy of Taiping Prefecture is promising.

  But if he does not agree with the Taiping Mansion, then the prince and Zhang Anshi will inevitably be suspicious.

  You don't agree with it, who dares to trust you to participate in such a confidential military event?

  Yang Pu's answer was just right. He put aside the question of whether the Taiping Mansion is good or bad, because whether it is good or bad depends on who will implement the New Deal and what the effect of the New Deal will be in the future. These things can be put on hold.

  But he did his best because he was a scholar, and among the scholars, it is one of the morals of a scholar to die for a confidant or to meet a wise master, and then die.

He not only explained his motives reasonably, but also expressed his attitude. The most important thing is that there is no sense of disobedience in it, and it will not make people feel disgusted with his underestimation and personal morality. It can be said that this The answer is perfect.

  Zhang Anshi thought carefully, and bowed his hands to Yang Pu.

Yang Pu said calmly again: "The most important thing now is the issue of the entire East Palace... All the officials in the court have their own stubborn opinions. Since His Majesty has decided on a new policy, and all good filial piety is the first, then His Royal Highness must follow suit. His Royal Highness Now that we are determined to support the New Deal, the staff of the East Palace must also let them change their heads."

   "This is also the reason why I want to ask His Highness to send a group of Eastern Palace officials to the Taiping Mansion to observe the government. It is not easy to watch the government. It is not easy to implement it..."

Speaking of this, Yang Pu looked at Zhang Anshi: "The government office and the counties need to free up some idle positions. For example, in the county, two master registers can be set up. One is for the county, and the other is appointed by the East Palace. Of course, if they are allowed to watch politics for a year or two, they will naturally be transferred back to the Eastern Palace. Let them try some small things at first, and if they can be cultivated, let them do important things for these bureaucrats who watch politics."

"The matter of the merit test is placed in the Taiping Mansion, so that no one will take the local officials seriously because they are the subjects of the Eastern Palace and the nobles of the Zhan Shi Mansion. So...after the observation of the government is over, their meritorious deeds The examination was jointly written by the local county magistrate and the government office, and sent to Zhan Shifu. His Royal Highness has made up his mind, and those who are not qualified should naturally be alienated. But if someone has insight into the New Deal and has the courage to Those who do things should take on heavy responsibilities.”

  Yang Pu smiled, and continued: "Besides, in this government office, I'm afraid there must be two Shao Yins, and one of them...Let's leave it to Yang."

  Zhang Anshi: "..."

   This is obviously a bit surprising, Zhu Gaochi said in surprise: "Scholar Yang is going too?"

"How will you know the effectiveness of the new policy if you don't go? How will you assist Your Highness in the future?" Yang Pu said with determination in his eyes, "Your Highness, if the lower officials don't go, then no one in Zhan Shifu will go. "

  Zhu Gaochi couldn't help sighing, he stared at Yang Pu and said: "It's just here in this palace..."

"Your Highness..." Yang Pu said, "Your Highness is hereby ordered to assist His Majesty. Speaking of which, His Highness is actually the prince of the supervisory country. But now, what is more important than the current New Deal in this world's major national affairs? Your Highness... When looking at problems, we must distinguish between priorities, especially national affairs."

"There are thousands of miles of land and thousands of people in the Ming Dynasty. There are so many things that happen every day. What is urgent should be dealt with immediately, and what can be put on hold is what the prince should do! If you worry about everything, you will not be able to handle the country's major affairs well. , it will be a mess instead, Your Highness is eager to get His Majesty's approval, and many times, it's okay to work on the papers."

   "Dare to ask Your Highness, what is the most urgent task right now, which is related to the world's common people and society, and even my great Ming Dynasty?"

  Zhu Gaochi did not hesitate, and immediately said: "New Deal?"

Yang Pu said: "Yes, to govern the world, there must be a national policy. If your highness just verbally supports one or two of this national policy or even an important matter, it will not work. Your highness can be ignorant of soldiers, books, farmers, workers, and merchants. trade, but His Highness must know what the foundation of the New Deal is, what purpose it needs to achieve, what problems will arise in the process, and what solutions and ways to deal with it."

"Nowadays, many scholars always advocate the rule of Chui Gong. Obviously, these people don't know much about the rule of Chui Gong that the sage said. They always think that as long as they enjoy peace, trust their ministers, and respect the virtuous and corporal, the world can be ruled. It should not be so. Yes. The essence of the rule of the vertical arch mentioned by the saint is to hope that the monarch can grasp the key points and not be distracted by the details. Right now, this new policy is the focus of His Highness."

   Zhu Gaochi listened, and then said: "I understand what you mean, what you mean... not only you are going to be the young Yin, but also Bengong..."

Yang Pu nodded and said: "His Royal Highness wants to go more, all the money and grain situation of the Taiping Mansion, as well as the way to deal with various affairs, must be well known. The results, also need to be aware of it.”

  Zhu Gaochi said sincerely and sincerely: "Okay, then follow what Qing said."

   Zhu Gaochi stood up and took a few steps.

  He began to learn from Zhu Di subconsciously, but...he is fat and walks like a duck.

  Zhu Gaochi pondered and said: "All trusted magistrates and magistrates, their merit tests... Donggong must personally interrogate them, and tell them that this palace will go to inspect in person, and will never forgive those who fail to implement the New Deal."

   "Of course, the situation in each prefecture and county is different. If you have any difficulties, you can ask An Shi, An Shi... How about this, you, the Governor of Taiping Prefecture, will take the trouble to supervise the affairs of each prefecture and county for the time being."

   "Ah..." Zhang Anshi said with a bitter face, "I'm also in charge of this? I'm the mansion official's salary, and it's not a good name."

  Zhu Gaochi thought for a while, and said: "Then I will ask my father, right now, no mistakes can be made. Since you have to do it, you must do it well. You were the one who initiated the New Deal, so don't you want to be lazy?"

   These words directly blocked Zhang Anshi from having anything to say, Zhang Anshi had no choice but to say: "Yes."

  Zhu Gaochi looked back at Yang Pu again, and said: "Scholar Yang, please draw up a detailed regulation, and I will play the emperor's father in the palace."

  Yang Pu said: "Yes."

  What should be said is almost done, Zhang Anshi saw that nothing happened, so he ran to find Zhu Zhanji.

  Zhu Zhanji was sitting at the desk in the study, writing something.

  He was so serious that Zhang Anshi walked in, but he didn't notice.

  Zhang Anshi tiptoed behind him and suddenly patted his shoulders.

   This time, Zhu Zhanji was not startled.

   But the **** next to Zhu Zhanji was so frightened that he knelt down and cried out for death.

  You should know that the eunuchs who serve should be notified first when someone comes in or out.

   But it was Zhang Anshi who came, how could this **** dare to make a noise easily, after all he did not dare to offend Duke Wei.

   But Zhang Anshi was so courageous, he ran directly to scare the grandson. The grandson was frightened, isn't it the unlucky people who serve him?

  Zhu Zhanji was not intimidated, but said: "Uncle, you are still like a child at this age."

  Zhu Zhanji put down his pen, turned his head, and looked at Zhang Anshi with his immature face.

  Zhang Anshi smiled: "Hasn't it been a long time? Oh, my Zhanji has grown taller again."

  Zhu Zhanji said: "It's still early, I will be taller than Uncle in the future."

   After all, after comparing his own size, he found that he was still far behind Zhang Anshi, and couldn't help feeling frustrated.

  Zhang Anshi's eyes fell on the table, and he asked curiously, "What are you writing?"

  Zhu Zhanji hastily put away the paper on the table and said: "It's just written by hand, uncle don't read it."

  Zhang Anshi grumbled: "Zhanji has stopped talking with uncle, but uncle gave you his heart."

  Zhu Zhanji tilted his head and thought for a while: "I haven't seen Uncle's heart."

  Zhang An Shijun stared, and said: "Damn, you have no conscience."

  Zhang Anshi cursed, thought for a while, and seemed to have no interest, and said: "Okay, we must be sincere and united, we are our own family, we must be of one mind, oh... where is your doctor?"

   "Him?" Zhu Zhanji said: "I was only allowed to do my homework here, and then I was summoned by my father."

  Zhang Anshi said: "Is he treating you well?"

  Zhu Zhanji said: "It's good for me, but... it's not good for Uncle."

  After hearing this, Zhang Anshi became excited: "What's the matter?"

   "He scolded my uncle for harming the country and the people, and said... and said..."

  Zhang Anshi gritted his teeth with hatred: "What is this person's name?"

   It's really unreasonable, there are always monsters in front of his nephew to ruin his reputation.

  Zhu Zhanji said: "Liu Zhou."

  Zhang Anshi said, "Come here, I'll take you to watch the excitement."

   After finishing speaking, he dragged Zhu Zhanji to the lobby of Zhan Shifu.

   Sure enough, the place is already overcrowded.

  Many officials of Zhan Shifu came.

   Soon, someone objected excitedly, and after a while, someone looked depressed.

   Until the end, someone came out disgruntled.

   "Which one is Liu Zhou?"

   Zhu Zhanji hid in the corner of the corridor and pointed.

  But I saw a person who looked quite young, but his face was miserable at this time.

  Zhang Anshi smiled: "Just wait and see, in a few days, I will clean him up and vent my anger on you."

  Zhu Zhanji couldn't help saying: "Uncle, it's for you to vent your anger."

Zhang Anshi patted him on the shoulder and said: "Why are we so clearly separated? You and I are one body, and you still have my family's blood on your body. If you vent your anger on me, you will vent your anger on you! Zhanji, the more you grow, the more you grow." The older you get, the more you don't understand the world."

  Zhu Zhanji tilted his head again, thought for a while, and said, "Will Dr. Liu be beaten?"

  Zhang Anshi said: "Uncle only punishes his heart, not others."

   "Oh." Zhu Zhanji calmed down.

  There was already an uproar in Zhan Shi's mansion.

  Many people's faces were ashen.

  This sudden decision made almost all the subordinates feel like headless chickens.

   Immediately afterwards, many people went to look for the scholar Yang Pu.

  Yang Pu is in his value room, packing up his things, some books that he needs to read on weekdays, and some office things.

   "Bachelor Yang...Bachelor Yang..."

  Yang Pu smiled and said: "What's the matter, gentlemen...you are so anxious."

  He is like a spring breeze.

  One of them stood up, looking distraught.

This person is exactly the Liu Zhou that Zhu Zhanji was talking about. Liu Zhou said angrily: "Scholar Yang, we are on duty at the Zhan Shifu, why do we go down to the county... The next official is to teach the emperor's grandson, and we need...need... "

  He stomped his feet and couldn't continue.

  Yang Pu smiled and said: "Going to Taiping Mansion may have to endure some hardships. Everyone must be prepared, but after two or three years, they will come back."

   "What is this?" Liu Zhou said: "I don't know who came up with the idea, why didn't Bachelor Yang just argue for it?"

  Yang Pu said: "It was Yang's idea."

   All of a sudden, everyone was suffocated.

   Liu Zhou said angrily: "Scholar Yang, you...you are so innocent, why...how..."

   "You...you only see difficulties, but have you ever thought that...this is also an opportunity? Everyone seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages, but in my opinion, these are all experiences in life."

  Everyone glared.

   Liu Zhou said angrily: "Who wouldn't say such things, and it wasn't you who went there?"

   "Who said I won't go?" Yang Pu said seriously: "I recommend myself, and I want to go to Taiping Mansion."

   All of a sudden, Yang Pu's housekeeping became quiet.

Yang Pu said: "We are still young, I know that all the princes have resentment, but as the prince's subordinates, don't we need to understand such a major event as the New Deal? As you said, everyone is a noble person , the future is limitless, but... precisely because the future is limitless, it is necessary to understand the actual situation of the New Deal."

"In the last years of the Han Dynasty, there was a nursery rhyme called Juxiu Cai, who didn't know the book. He was filial and honest, and his father lived away. Han Suqing was white and turbid like mud, and Gao Diliang was as timid as a chicken. Don't you guys also hope, like the end of Han Dynasty? Are the talented scholars ridiculed like the Xiaolians?"

   Liu Zhou said angrily: "But... this Taiping Mansion... this Taiping Mansion..."

  Yang Pu said: "Do you think the new policy of the Taiping Mansion is not to your liking?"

   Liu Zhou said: "Exactly."

"Then you should go." Yang Pu said bluntly: "What's wrong with the new policy, where is the problem, how to correct him, you will know when you sit here in Zhan Shifu? Mr. Liu is a man with great ambitions. If you have your own opinion, of course you don't have to agree with it, but when you refute it, you need to have something to say, not just a few words.”

After a pause, he continued: "So, no matter what purpose I am waiting for when I go to Taiping Mansion this time, it is to correct mistakes, to learn from others, or...just because I have to go, but what should I do? Go or have to go, Your Majesty has issued an order, and repeatedly petitioned the Taiping Mansion, His Royal Highness is also determined to support, we are subjects, and at this time of turmoil, it is a golden opportunity for us to wait, well, I will continue Pack your things, everyone... See you at Taiping Mansion in a few days."

   Zhan Shifu is making a fuss.

  The academicians of the Hanlin Academy watched with cold eyes.

   Many censors are also ready to move.

  For them, the East Palace really made too much trouble this time, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also disappointed Yu Nei.

  So now you can say anything.

   Among them, there are quite a few who yell.

  The matter of the New Deal is like a sharp sword hanging over everyone's head at this time. I also heard that in Qixia's place, many people committed suicide by jumping off the building one after another, and most of them were scholars, which made people feel heartbroken.

   Just when the trouble was endless.

  The crown prince actually came to visit Zhu Hanlin and Yushi himself.

   Obviously, His Royal Highness wanted to appease everyone.

  But many people don't buy it. They think that His Royal Highness... This has obviously begun to deviate from the original image of honesty, and he is no longer like a gentleman.

As soon as Zhu Gaochi arrived, he summoned everyone to the lobby, smiled at them cordially, and said, "Zhuqing...this palace is here, and the Crown Princess heard about this, so she specially ordered someone to make some cakes and distributed them to you. On duty, I can only eat tea and some pastries at noon, it is really hard work.”

  But this time, everyone's faces were ashen, and everyone was silent.

  Zhu Gaochi said: "You seem to have complaints about this Palace."

   "Your Highness... Taiping Mansion."

   Zhu Gaochi smiled like a spring breeze: "Oh, it turned out to be a matter of the Taiping Mansion. I said this earlier... I also know that you are full of complaints, so I came to ask Zhu Qing for this matter."

  When everyone heard it, it seemed that there was something going on.

   Could it be that His Highness has some unspeakable secrets?

Zhu Gaochi said: "This time, my father ordered me to recommend the chief officials of various prefectures and counties. Hey...this matter...Duke Wei has recommended quite a few, but I am thinking...these recommended people are all Taiping. It is not safe for the officials of the Taiping Mansion. The new policy of the Taiping Mansion can be implemented because of the courage of Wei Guogong. , was born as a civil servant..."

  When everyone heard this, they were in an uproar: "Your Highness, something big is about to happen."

   "His Royal Highness absolutely must not agree, once this case is opened, there will be endless troubles."

Another person stood up and said sharply: "Your Highness, I think it is absolutely impossible. Most of the officials in the Taiping Mansion are good and bad, and they have no fame, but they are recommended to be officials. Let alone that. I have also heard that many people... Unworthy, there are quite a few officials in the Taiping Mansion, who talk about money and food every day, such people... have no morals, no shame, can they still govern one side?"

  The person who spoke was a well-known stabbing head of the Imperial Academy, who attended Chen Jin.

  Chen Jin even directly contradicted Zhu Di at the beginning, and in the name of impeachment, among scholars, he was praised as the Di Renjie of Ming Dynasty.

  Chen Jinsheng burst into tears: "If your Highness is like this, you will be disappointed at home. This matter must not be done...Please Your Highness..."

  Zhu Gaochi smiled and said: "That's exactly the case, I don't want to make this case, so after much deliberation...but I have to think of a compromise."

  Everyone listened carefully, Chen Jindao: "Dare to ask Your Highness, is there any compromise?"

Zhu Gaochi said: "Last time, the batch of magistrates and magistrates aroused the wrath of the father and emperor because of the reduction in grain production, so they lost their titles and implicated their descendants. It can be seen that it is difficult for ordinary officials to govern Nanzhili. If next year, the grain production cannot be increased, and the summer tax cannot be increased like this Taiping Mansion, I am afraid...the father will be furious again. I am a son, if this causes the father to worry and anger, it will be considered unfilial."

"Fortunately, I have a lot of talented people in Ming Dynasty. This time, I plan to select good talents. On the one hand, it will prevent the Taiping Mansion from being filled with too many officials. On the other hand, it is also to share the worries of the father. All the ministers of the Zhihanlin Academy and the Metropolitan Procuratorate were born in the second-class Jinshi, and all of them are talented, how about this, please feel wronged, and go to various prefectures and counties to serve as magistrates and county magistrates... How about it?"

  As soon as this remark came out...

  Everyone was dumbfounded.

  The hall of the Hanlin Academy was deadly silent.

Zhu Gaochi seemed to be unable to see everyone's froze faces at all, and smiled and said: "Who will set an example? Chen Qing's family, you are from the fifth-rank waiter, and I will promote you to a fifth-rank magistrate. If you know, let's go...How about Ren Tongzhi in Huai'an Mansion?"

  Chen Jin: "..."

Zhu Gaochi looked at Chen Jin with burning eyes: "Chen Qing's family, this is also for the sake of the family and the world. The Tongzhi of Huai'an Mansion recommended by Taiping Mansion was actually from a family background. Cheng's people are going to serve as co-prefects, it's... a joke."

"And Chen Qing's family is a lecturer, a well-read person. I can still remember that when I was talking about it, Chen Shi's demeanor when he was talking about politics can be described as high-spirited and eloquent. It's just right for you to be promoted this time." Teach you to show your fists and your ambitions."

  Chen Jin was still in a daze.

  He could no longer imagine why he turned the corner in the end and this was the result.

  This former colleague has just been dismissed from office, and his descendants are officials. He took the lead to increase production, but he couldn't increase production. Isn't this a problem with his whole family?

  Even if he won't be dismissed at that time, the future will be real. Even if it's just dawdling, at least he's a servant in the hall, and even luckier, if he becomes a minister, he's more likely to join the cabinet, so why... so undead, he ran to a mere mansion to be a co-prefect.

  Tongzhi... After working for ten years, he is not as good as a small Hanlin Xiaoxiuzhuan!

  Chen Jin said with a stiff face: "Your Highness...the minister...the minister's health is not good."

  Zhu Gaochi shook his head and said: "It's no problem, it's not that it's been sent thousands of miles away, and it's still in Nanzhili."

  Chen Jin's face turned pale several degrees, and said: "This...chen...chen..."

Zhu Gaochi sighed, stepped forward, patted him on the shoulder emotionally, and said: "Chen Qing, I am a son and a minister, and there are too many troubles. You are a scholar of the state. Think of it as sharing my worries, Bengong..."

  Zhu Gaochi seemed about to shed tears as he spoke.

   Speaking of this, it would be really impolite if you don't express it.

   But at this moment, Chen Jin's heart was in a state of confusion, and his mind was bewildered and buzzing.

  At this time, Zhu Gaochi seemed to be saying to him: "Jing Ke, the great cause of assassinating Qin Qin is today, please don't refuse."

  Chen Jin only felt shortness of breath and a feeling of suffocation.

  Recommend a book "Nobody Knows Taboos Better Than I Do", it's quite an interesting book, everyone can read it.
