Chapter 193: The Clash of Monarchs and Ministers


As soon as his words fell, Zhu Xu raised his eyebrows.

Who in the Manchu Dynasty didn't know that Fu Changzong was his uncle, and who didn't know that he reserved this household book for Fu Changzong?

"That's right!"

An imperial historian immediately stood up again and retorted: "Your Majesty, Gao Panlong is very old, and he once said that he would not be a minister again, and the minister recommended Zuo Guangdou to be the secretary of the household department." ” The military department suddenly stood up in the middle of the matter and scolded loudly, "Hmph, Zuo Guangdou and others embezzled and bribed the inner court, but they admitted it in person, signed and detained, and the evidence was ironclad!"

How can such a person be an official?

” King Xin frowned slightly, his expression was hesitant, but he was also comparing in his heart.

Gu Bingqian and the others shook their heads secretly, and quietly cast a color not far behind them.

The waiter of the Ministry of Rites stood up and said to Zhu Xu, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the household department is still safe and stable under the control of Lord Fu, and the rebellion in various places should be dealt with as soon as possible." ” Zhu Xu was drinking tea, listening to his words, and nodded appreciatively.

Zhu Xu nodded, and the left deputy capital Yushi took a step, stood up and said to Zhu Xu: "Your Majesty, now that the military department is temporarily missing, resulting in frequent rebellions in various places, the vacancy should be filled as soon as possible. ” "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Yuan Chonghuan is competent."

"Your Majesty, the minister recommended Mao Wenlong, the governor of the left capital."

"Your Majesty, the minister recommended Yuan Keli, the governor of Penglai."

"The minister opposes Mao Wenlong, this person is addicted to killing, and many charges have not been verified, so it is not suitable to be reused."

"The minister is to Yuan Chonghuan, this person does not listen to the order, if there are two masters in Liaodong, it should not be connived."

"The minister thinks that Yuan Keli doesn't know about military affairs and doesn't understand the situation in Liaodong, so it is not appropriate to call it."

Zhu Xu listened quietly and watched, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty began to quarrel again.

It can be said that except for Mao Wenlong, the others are all members of the Donglin Party, but that is, the Donglin Party is very noisy.

Zhu Youzhen didn't say anything, frowning, looking worried.

Gu Bingqian seemed to have an understanding, and he was silent about the affairs of Liaodong, and his people naturally did not participate.

As for Fu Changzong, Zhou Yingqiu and others, they will not participate in party struggles.

After arguing for half an hour, Yang Lian couldn't stand it anymore, stood up, and said to Zhu Xu: "I don't know who the emperor thinks is suitable?"

” Yang Lian's status is now very high, whether it is prestige, status, or relationship with the emperor, as soon as he spoke, he naturally stopped, staring at Zhu Xu with burning eyes.

Whether it is Zhu Youzhen, the king of letters, or Gu Bingqian, or Fu Changzong and others, everyone is a little nervous at the moment.

After all, this is the first court meeting of the new emperor, and even the first official opening.

What kind of person the new emperor is, what kind of ability does he have, how will state affairs be, how to treat foreign ministers, etc., all have to be judged from this court meeting!

Zhu Xu also knew that the main dish was on the table.

He glanced at Yang Lian, looked at the place where the military department was standing, and said lightly: "The civil unrest in various places has been cleared by the guards in various places, why didn't I see the follow-up folds come up?"

” At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the military system was that the five armies were responsible for the command of the army, and the military department was responsible for the transfer of troops, and the powers of the two sides were clear, but after the change of the civil fort, the situation changed, and the military department not only usurped the emperor's pro-army twelve guards, but also robbed the power of the five armies to protect the house, so that the five armies became a decoration.

Therefore, as soon as Zhu Xu's voice fell, the only one who was still in the military department was the minister of the king stepped forward and said: "Back to the emperor, the military department is still in the book, and the left servant is temporarily missing, so there is no decision in the matter, and the other guards should also step up the suppression of thieves, and they have not yet reported to Beijing!"

” Zhu Xu's face sank, but his tone was calm: "This is an excuse for people to be superficial?

Come on, put the king's ministers in prison, and dismiss them for investigation!

” Wang Zhichen didn't expect that he would be imprisoned for just saying it routinely, and immediately vigorously protested: "Your Majesty, the military department is not the responsibility of the ministers alone, and the bandits in various places have not been reported to the ministers, and the emperor is also urged to discern them!"

” Not only the king's ministers were surprised, but the adults of the Manchu Dynasty were very shocked.

Shaanxi and Xidao Yushi came forward, and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Lord Wang is fulfilling his duties and the army is not in order, and it is not his responsibility alone. ” The squire of the Criminal Department also came out and said loudly, "Your Majesty, please think twice, the military department is now empty, and you must not act rashly." ” "Your Majesty, Wang Shilang is not at fault, and the minister thinks that it should not be dealt with like this."

"The minister objected."

"The minister is also against it."

King Xin looked at Zhu Xu, his brows furrowed, and he didn't stand up.

Gu Bingqian's expression moved, and then a smile flashed in his eyes, and he quietly glanced at the henchmen behind him.

Fu Changzong and Zhou Yingqiu also looked at each other quietly, although Zhu Xu's words were accidental, but it was not a big deal, so he endured it and did not move.

Wang Zhichen has a close relationship with Yang Lian, and seeing that Zhu Xu wants to put Wang Zhichen in prison like this, he hesitated for a moment and stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is enough to order the cabinet to supervise the military department to deal with it, and should not go to prison Wang Shilang." ” He was already quite euphemistic.

In a short period of time, more than 20 people came out to protect this Lord Wang, if Zhu Youxiao would most likely retreat, Zhu Xu's expression remained unchanged, raised his eyes and swept around, looked at Wang Zhichen and said lightly: "In the third year of the Apocalypse, the foreign Lang Guo Quan, a member of the Ministry of Soldiers, has 5,000 taels of silver, and in the fifth year of the Apocalypse, the head of the Ministry of Defense, Qian Shan, has 3,000 taels, and three months ago, he was blessed and built 10,000 taels, do you want me to continue?"

” Wang Zhichen's face changed, and he stood speechless.

Outside the door, four brocade-clothed guards strode in, dragging the king's ministers and walking out.

Zhu Xu's eyes were slightly cold, and he swept over the person who pleaded just now, "Which of you wants to go with him?"

” The eyes of the waiter of the criminal department changed slightly, but then he said with a deep color, "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know that this king's minister is actually corrupt and soliciting bribes, but since this is the case, you should have been arrested by Yousi a long time ago, and there is no need to discuss it." ” Zhu Xu narrowed his eyes and said, "You mean, let me be the secretary of the Criminal Department?"

” The face of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites changed, and he bowed down and said, "The minister doesn't dare." ” Seeing that the emperor cleaned up the squire of the military department so easily, and subdued the squire of the criminal department, he had always dared to confront the emperor-for-tat, and even taught the emperor's ministers was naturally unwilling, Like stood up in the middle of the matter and said to Zhu Xu: "Your Majesty, now the military department is still in the book, and all the left and right squires are vacant, the matter is very important, please make a decision as soon as possible." ” The military department is still in a high position, not to mention that now the two squires are vacant, no matter who is recommended, all parties will argue, in the Manchu Dynasty, let alone today, three or five days may not be certain.

This bitter fruit needs to be swallowed by this little emperor who doesn't know the height of the sky!

Zhu Xu naturally knew it, turned his gaze to Zhu Youzhen at the front, and said, "King Xin, do you have a candidate?"

” Zhu Youzhen has always admired Sun Chengzong, and now Sun Chengzong is the second assistant of the cabinet, so naturally he can no longer be appointed as the secretary of the military department. ” Zhu Xu nodded and said: "Mao Wenlong has a case, Yuan Keli can't leave for the time being, Gao Di doesn't help Ning Yuan and needs to take it back to the capital to ask for the crime, Yuan Chonghuan is not qualified, since there is no candidate, the matter is urgent, Sun Ge Lao, you temporarily lead the military affairs as a cabinet elder, and deal with the rebellion in various places as soon as possible."

When the people are in place, make plans. ” The Manchu Dynasty was stunned for a moment, and it seemed to be the best way.

Sun Chengzong, regardless of his qualifications or ability, is the most suitable to temporarily take charge of the military department.

Even if he tried his best to hide to the side, Sun Chengzong, who wanted to avoid the party struggle, had a different face, and took a step forward and said, "The minister's order." ” Zhu Xu nodded, and the matter was settled.

But the ministers naturally wouldn't give up so easily, and an imperial historian of the Metropolitan Procuratorate stood up and said, "Your Majesty, may I ask how to reply to the local townsmen and silver?"
