The current six Shangshu are basically people in the early years of Chongzhen, Fu Changzong, the secretary of the household department, Zhou Yingqiu, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, Xu Dahua, the secretary of the Criminal Department, Ni Wenhuan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Zhang Ixu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Shen Yongmao, and the governor of the Governor's Yuan, Zhu Luhu, King Jing.
Liu Shimin looked at the seven people and said in detail: "What you adults have to do is to go from their own innovation, to the locality, and then to the influence of the Ming Dynasty, to be as concise and meticulous as possible, and report the government affairs of each ministry and the future development trend, the actions to be taken, etc., to the emperor in 1510." ” Several people were stunned when they heard it, they didn't see the emperor uncommonly, whether it was said or written in the notebook, what did the emperor mean?
Liu Shimin was stunned when he saw several people, and waved his hand and said, "Someone, pen and ink......
You adults can think slowly, make an entry, and tell the miscellaneous family when you write it, and the miscellaneous family will take it to see the emperor. ” Although they didn't understand what the emperor was going to do, these were things that they were comfortable with, so they answered one after another, and each found a place to sit down, and began to write.
But it didn't take long for Fu Changzong to be the first to crumple the written paper into a ball and throw it into the garbage basket on the side.
Then there was Xu Dahua, writing and frowning, and it didn't take long for him to crumple it in a circle and throw it into the garbage basket.
Zhou Yingqiu, Ni Wenhuan and others are also like this one after another, In the end, King Jing Zhu Luhu smiled bitterly, looked at the six Shangshu and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, I understand why the emperor asked us to write, we handle these government affairs in a clear and easy way, but it is really messy to investigate carefully, and there is no way to write." ” Several other people nodded helplessly, the six departments now almost inherit the rights of the entire Ming Dynasty, and the six departments are also intricately intertwined, and it is not a matter of time and a half at all if they want to sort it out.
Zhou Yingqiu pondered for a while, and said: "The emperor's meaning, I can probably guess one or two, is to hope that our ministries can thoroughly sort out government affairs, and then deal with it easily, and promote the Ming Dynasty to innovate ......"
"Get rid of the old and bring forth the new."
Fu Changzong said concisely.
Zhu Xu didn't tell him about this in advance, obviously with the intention of testing them.
Xu Dahua, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, tasted the pleasure of doing his best for the country and holding power at the same time, he looked at Fu Changzong, and said with a hint of awe: "Then, Master Fu, how should we write this?"
” As soon as Xu Dahua's voice fell, everyone looked at Fu Changzong.
Fu Changzong looked around, thought for a while, and said: "In this way, let's first look at each ministry from a higher perspective, write out possible innovations, if the emperor is not satisfied, after going back, we will convene all ministries and ministries to discuss in detail, and write a satisfactory manuscript to the emperor." ” Fu Changzong's meaning is very simple, write concise first, frame, and detailed things can be slowly filled in after going back.
Everyone agreed, said a few words, and then busily wrote.
Even so, it was quite difficult for the seven people to write, and it was the first systematic summary, from the ministry to the capital, and then to the Ming Dynasty, but also to consider the palace, the cabinet, and the six ministries, and it didn't take long for it to become a discussion of seven people together.
Liu Shimin has been watching from the sidelines, his expression unchanged, and he is thinking silently in his heart.
The emperor clearly wants to sort out the official system of the Ming Dynasty, clarify the responsibilities of various departments, make everything clear and clear, and do not give them a gap to shirk and people to float.
It took a full hour for the seven of them to barely finish writing, Liu Shimin put it away, then looked at them and smiled: "Ladies and gentlemen, wait a minute." ” Several people also nodded politely, although the power of the celebrant has been greatly compressed, and there is no prestige of the internal minister, but Liu Shimin, as the second person of the ceremonial supervisor and the emperor's close attendant, no one dares to offend easily.
Liu Shimin brought a thick stack of paper and sent it into the imperial study.
Zhu Xu was eating a bowl of porridge, and he couldn't wait to bring it over when he saw it.
The top one is the one of the household, that is, written by Fu Changzong.
Zhu Xu stared while drinking porridge.
Fu Changzong's stack of paper was written in great detail, saying that 'internal reform is needed', which is roughly to streamline manpower and clarify responsibilities, then to sort out government affairs, and then to rectify the program and discipline, and then to talk about the household department's 'household registration', 'acres of land', 'taxation', and especially 'commercial tax', he talked about it a lot, and also had a lot of ideas.
Zhu Xu nodded slightly, put it aside, and looked at the next stack.
This is Zhou Yingqiu, the ministry.
He called 'internal supervision and external inspection', which means internal supervision and external inspection, and then talks about the supervision, evaluation, promotion, and so on of officials.
Zhou Yingqiu wrote relatively much, and it is obvious that he has a lot of new ideas and considerations for the officials.
Zhu Xu put it aside and picked up the next stack.
This is from the Ministry of Rites, and Zhang I will continue to be transferred to the cabinet, but I can also write hard.
He said that the Ministry of Rites should 'discuss the rituals internally and shape the prestige externally', which is to further standardize the ritual of the Ming Dynasty and create the prestige of the Ministry of Rites externally.
Dragged down by party strife, the prestige of the imperial court in the eyes of the people is actually getting lower and lower, and the civil unrest everywhere shows this.
There is also one article in it, which should clarify the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, especially 'Jianwen' and 'Jingtai'.
Zhu Xu thoughtfully, let it go, and looked at the next one.
This is from the Criminal Department, written by Ni Wenhuan.
Ni Wenhuan did not entangle inside and outside, and bluntly said that the capital also needs the three divisions of the yamen, which are directly connected to the localities, and the three divisions of the yamen can only be promoted internally except for the supervisors, and cannot be transferred out.
Zhu Xu was quite appreciative of this, and the other innovation plans written also nodded slightly.
The Criminal Department is the first line of Daming's anti-corruption and anti-corruption, and Ni Wenhuan has many good ideas.
Below is the Ministry of Industry, Xu Dahua.
Xu Dahua was straightforward and wrote out all the ambitious plans of the Ministry of Industry, such as 'building a national network of official roads', 'cement roads everywhere', building bridges and paving roads, digging mountains and stones, and building warships for the imperial court.
It seems to be quite serious and organized, not delusional or foolish.
Zhu Xu put down the spoon and looked at Xu Dahua's 'recital', Daming is now very enthusiastic about building bridges and paving roads, one is to improve the muddy roads in the township, and the other is to engrave a monument to commemorate this kind of thing, who doesn't want to live for generations and let future generations hang on to it?
Therefore, all scholars or squires are quite active, and it doesn't cost much money to build roads, and local materials are nothing more than a little food expenses.
This is a kind of 'work for relief', Jiangnan is good to say, the most important thing is the southwest, Zhu Xu is also planning to carry out large-scale bridge repair and paving, digging canals to open the river, and fighting drought and disasters in one fell swoop. put down Xu Dahua, and then Shen Yongmao of the Ministry of War.
Shen Yongmao, the secretary of the military department, is somewhat 'aggrieved' in Zhu Xu's opinion, firstly, there is Sun Chengzong in charge above, and secondly, there is Sun Chuanting below, which is a little embarrassing.

However, Shen Yongmao has never complained about anything, and has always been diligent and hardworking.
Zhu Xu appreciated this.
He wrote a lot of proposals, first, to clarify the military ranks and ranks, second, to establish a general logistics base, third, to affirm the military system of the imperial court, and fourth, to clarify the responsibilities of the military department......
Zhu Xu looked very seriously, what Shen Yongmao meant was that the current military system was not clear, even if the leaders of the troops knew, but the court was very confused, and the power of the military department was too great, not only mastering the local provincial soldiers, government soldiers, county soldiers, but also the standing army of the Ming Dynasty, almost all the soldiers and horses except the forbidden army!
These are all under Zhu Xu's control, but we also have to think about the long-term.
He looked at it for a long time, slightly bowed his head, Shen Yongmao said well, and he was constantly thinking in his heart.
The last one is that of King Jing Zhu Luhu.
King Jing's recital has written the most, including the revision of the Ming law, the establishment of the 'official code', the establishment of the functions and powers of the Governor's Yuan, the abolition of the old evils such as foot binding, the reform of the Ming employment regulations, in addition to the recommendation of the Ministry of Officials, the emperor's approval, but also the need for the Governor's Yuan to verify, and most importantly, 'clan status considerations' and so on......
Zhu Xu looked very seriously, these people were obviously very attentive.
The reform of the Ming Dynasty has entered a critical period, and there will be a lot of problems, but fortunately, there are constantly major events that can be covered, and the news is not smooth, which gives the imperial court a buffer period to deal with, and at the same time, it also requires the imperial court to continue to promote reform in order to achieve new stability and balance.
Liu Shimin saw that Zhu Xu's reading was over, took a step forward, and said, "Your Majesty, it's past lunch time, and several adults are still waiting......"
Zhu Xu raised his head, his mind was still a little confused, and he waved his hand and said, "I won't talk about it today, let them go back, write a recital carefully, and I will find them in two days." ” The more the year passes, the busier it becomes.
Cao Huachun responded, and just about to leave, Zhu Xu said: "You can also write one, you can write about the palace, the twelve eunuchs, etc., write and take a look." ” Liu Shimin was stunned, it's not that he can't write, but this palace involves the royal family, if he accidentally writes too much, it's big.
Troublesome.
Zhu Xu didn't know what Liu Shimin was thinking, and continued to look at what the seven people wrote, and then picked up the pen, supplemented and revised it, and planned to discuss it with them in two days.
Liu Shimin responded while pondering, and walked out of the side door.
As soon as Liu Shimin left, Cao Huachun hurried in and whispered in Zhu Xu's ear, "Your Majesty, King Xin is here." ” Zhu Xu was still writing, and said indifferently: "Xuan." ” Cao Huachun's expression was a little calm, and he said again in Zhu Xu's ear: "Your Majesty, King Xin is here to ask for his resignation." ” Zhu Xu paused, turned his head to look at Cao Huachun and said, "What did you say?"
” Cao Huachun could see the stunned and cold color in the emperor's eyes, lowered his head slightly, and said: "King Xin was very dissatisfied with the article published by the Ministry of Rites, and lost his temper in the Ministry of Rites, but the Ministry of Rites did not accept the King of Letters, so he ......"
Zhu Xu understood, his expression returned to calm, and his eyes looked outside.
The position of the first assistant of the cabinet can only be surnamed Zhu now, firstly, it is a signal to the unity of the royal family of the people of the world, and secondly, it is also to curb party strife.
King Xin gave Zhu Xu a problem, and at the same time he was forcing the palace!
