"What is Aiqing's strategy for dealing with it?"
Zhu Youxiao asked.Liu Hongxun said with shame: "The minister is ignorant, and the minister has not yet had a good plan. ”Zhu Youxiao said: "If I want to solve or improve these problems through you, are you willing to pay for it, even your life?"
”Liu Hongxun thought to himself that he was over the age of six, and he had been in the officialdom for almost 20 years, didn't he just wait until now, and it was no longer important to die, so he stood up and said: "The minister is willing to die for the society." ”"Now I am going to confer Liu Aiqing Wenyuan Pavilion University Fellowship, enter the cabinet, list after Bi Ziyan, and go straight to the political hall to participate in the secret!"
Zhu Youxiao immediately ordered."
Obey the order!"
Yuan Keli and Liu Hongxun replied.Next, Zhu Youxiao began to discuss other ministers in person, and he was basically satisfied, but there were not many who were really satisfied.Except for Liu Hongxun, it was Zhu Xieyuan who entered the political affairs hall, and the rest of them were only additional cabinet ministers and privy council ministers, who were only in charge of internal affairs or military affairs, and did not participate in the decision-making of military aircraft.Zhu Youxiao has further subdivided the responsibilities of the Privy Council, which is in charge of military affairs, and the cabinet, which is responsible for internal affairs.For example, the ministers in the cabinet will be in charge of a certain type of affairs, and each ministry only needs to consult and report to the ministers in charge of their own affairs, without having to directly face Emperor Chen.The emperor didn't have so much time to take care of the affairs of the various ministries.After all, Zhu Youxiao is not Zhu Yuanzhang, he doesn't love work so much.And now that the great disaster has been eliminated, Zhu Youxiao's sense of crisis has completely disappeared, as long as he, the emperor, does not mess around, the matter of the death of the country has nothing to do with him.In addition, as a traverser, he does not have such a strong idea of family and world.He didn't want to die of exhaustion for the sake of his children and grandchildren.What's more, Daming has entered the age of steam.Therefore, he has relaxed a lot now, and he doesn't have as much pressure as before, so he wants to be more idle and increase the number of officials in charge, so that he can be more relaxed.Of course, this is not to say that Zhu Youxiao intends to get by.He knew that there were still many systems in Daming that needed to be reformed.There are also many restless external forces that need to be suppressed.Therefore, Zhu Youxiao did not plan to really live a retired life.It's just that he wants to retreat more into the background, hold the military power, financial power and the power of officials in his hands, and rent out the power to govern internal affairs, so that a group of officials who dare to do things will continue to charge forward for him in the reform of domestic affairs.Therefore, Zhu Youxiao first changed the system of court pushing, so that the appointment of important ministers was as much in line with his intentions as possible.In the current Ming Dynasty, there are all kinds of forces, which are particularly complicated.Princes and nobles, squires and eunuchs, needless to say.This is because Zhu Youxiao relied on government-run industry and commerce to increase a large amount of revenue from the state treasury and domestic funds, and also relied on encouraging and supporting the development of industry and commerce to solve the problem of a large number of displaced people.Therefore, the number of Daming workers is very large now.Moreover, benefiting from Zhu Youxiao's social education at the university, in the current ten years of the Apocalypse, there are many educated children of workers.In addition, the number of merchants is also quite much higher than before.Also, the number of standing armies has increased.The number of official schools of Yulinwei and Yongwei has reached more than 200,000.The number of brocade guards has also reached more than 150,000.Needless to say, the number of anti-corruption divisions in Dongchang across the country, plus comprehensive stores, is no less than 100,000.There is also the West Factory, which is responsible for taxation.Commercial taxes and customs duties are much more responsible than agricultural taxes, so there are more official schools in the West Factory than in Jinyiwei and East Factory.Then, there are scholars, although Zhu Youxiao is at the beginning, killing scholars like hemp, but he can't stand his repeated expansion, plus there are more and more people who can afford to read, so over the years, the number of scholars has not decreased because of Zhu Youxiao's strict punishment and strict law, but has increased significantly.Many scholars still express their dissatisfaction with the current imperial court in various ways, and at the same time, they are still eager to participate in scientific examinations, honestly do Bagu Wen, and then become famous scholars.After all, no matter how Zhu Youxiao uses various methods, such as Jinyiwei, Dongchang, secret reports from cronies, and the imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to monitor all officials, corruption is strictly prohibited, and it is strictly forbidden to eat and take cards, but there are still many privileges to be an official, and naturally there are still many people who want to be officials.Workers, merchants, soldiers, scholars, and peasants and landlords, who had always existed in large numbers.These different strata of people have their own interests.And the context is also different.Therefore, the thinking is not the same.Therefore, there are those who want to limit the power of the monarchy, limit the power of the government, and want to let the interests of the industries controlled by the government be ceded to the people.There are those who still want the court to lenient the sentence or even not to punish the doctor.Yes, I still want the court to be lightly paid.There are also those who want the imperial court to continue to expand its territory.There are even those who want the court to unload the employers who owe wages.For ministers such as Yuan Keli, Bi Ziyan and Liu Hongxun, who has newly entered the political hall, it is still difficult to govern the current Ming Dynasty well."
Bi Ge Lao, the Weaving Bureau reported that the Weaving Bureau has been less profitable than last year, because the spinning machine and loom manufacturing technology was obtained by the private weaving giants through various ways, and to be improved, and then because of the higher silver poached the mature workers of the Weaving Bureau, so that the profits of the Weaving Bureau were greatly reduced, so the Weaving Bureau requested that the workers of the Weaving Bureau choose their employers freely, in the following opinion, the workers freely choose their employers, is to intervene more, otherwise it will affect the imperial court's national funds, so it is proposed in the next vote, In the future, unless the workers of the Weaving Bureau are dismissed, they will not be allowed to change employers, and if they do not go to work in the Weaving Bureau without reason, they will be detained for the crime of dereliction of duty, and the punishment will be 60 rods at the least, and exile at the worst, you see?
”Li Guopu, a newly promoted university scholar who cooperated with Bi Ziyan to deal with economic government affairs, reported such a thing to Bi Ziyan at this time.Although Bi Ziyan once took the initiative to suggest resettlement of the displaced people to avoid their troubles, this does not mean that he is really advanced in thinking to the point where he really cares about the interests of the proletarians.He is more concerned with the interests of the Ming court.Therefore, Bi Ziyan nodded and said: "It's really not enough people's hearts!"
Isn't the silver of the Weaving Bureau high enough, these workers are still in love!
In this way, the quasi-weaving bureau played the question, the weaving bureau employees shall not apply for dismissal, nor shall they not return to the weaving bureau to work without reason, once violated, the order has a division to deal with!
”Although the draft vote is not a holy decree, due to the large number of central government affairs, in many cases, the draft vote will eventually become a holy decree.Bi Ziyan is now the authority of the imperial court in managing the money and grain economy, and has won the trust of Emperor Zhu Youxiao and Yuan Keli, the first assistant.Therefore, Bi Ziyan's view eventually became a holy decree.However, Zhu Youxiao will still take the time to look through these wills that he ignored because they did not involve military affairs.On this day, Zhu Youxiao, in his spare time, happened to turn to this edict that was archived for the emperor's random inspection.After Zhu Youxiao saw it, he couldn't help but say: "Good guy, there is no contract spirit at all!"
When encountering this kind of problem, the first thing that comes to mind is to oppress the hired workers, rather than improve themselves, and my Ming court is really not the court that is in charge of the hired workers!
No matter how loyal and promising the officials are, they do not really put the people first. ”Zhu Youxiao knocked on the copper chime because of this.Not long after, Wang Chengen walked in: "What does the emperor command?"
”"Spread the word that the Fuchen came to see me!"
