I am the king of the dead

Chapter 941 Play for fun, make trouble for trouble, don't joke about the Nine Races
As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Qiyu had always had a doubt in his heart. Since Yu Qian and Hu Wei were both here today, after Zhu Qiyu sat down, he said rather puzzled: "I can't figure it out, what do these silverfish want?"

"I'm very strange. They ask for money. My navy is only responsible for fighting and order, not for business. Official ships and official trade are just a way to beat the world. They ask for power, and I seldom Arbitrary, since I ascended the throne, there has never been a policy that has not been approved by the court, and there is only one thing today, that is, I pardoned Liu's crime of suing her husband."

Hu Yan said with a smile: "The Ministry of Punishment agrees with His Majesty's pardon. Yu Shangshu knows what Wang Fu is doing, and he will not pretend to be confused. As for them, they just want His Majesty to surrender. What else are they thinking?"

Zhu Qiyu spread his hands, and said to Hu Wei and Yu Qian: "What's the specifics? If you want me to surrender, don't you even give me a surrender condition? How come in the eyes of this group of silverfish, I'm not even as good as the Ara Zhiyuan?" Well, the Ara Zhiyuan surrendered, and Daming returned the conditions. He was decent, and I also gave him dignity. Didn’t even mention a surrender condition? I am willing to negotiate. To this day, before I do anything, I have to post Huang Bang, and at least, I am willing to talk about it twice."

Yu Qian said with a smile: "What they are looking for is hereditary replacement, and they want to be immortal in all aspects."

Zhu Qiyu waved his hands again and again and said: "I never did this in my dreams. If you ask for this, you shouldn't be so noisy with me. I want to use a knife to kill people. They lost their lives and I lost face. If I surrender, they will be hereditary." No replacement? They should go to the temple and make a wish."

"That's not true. The Buddha's country has perished. Now it's the Mughals of the Timur Khanate who are acting fiercely there. The Buddha's country can't be hereditary and will never change. Their dream is so unreal."

Yu Qian nodded. The Buddha Kingdom was indeed dead. He wanted to break up the matter with His Majesty and make it clear. , redundant, just talk about this redundant official."

"In the sixth year of Jiading in the Southern Song Dynasty, the imperial court Quan Cao was selected four times. These four selections were the East Court of Zhongshumen's lower judges, which is today's Beijing officials, also called Shangshu Zuoxuan; Zhongshumen's official department Liu Neiquan, that is, local officials. It is also called Shilang Zuoxuan; Zhongshumen's lower court is the West Courtyard, and the door is closed to wait for the above-mentioned envoys. , also known as the assistant minister right selection."

"There are a total of 2392 Beijing officials, of which only 975 are from Jinshi background, less than half; there are 17006 local officials, and only 4325 are from Juren, which is about a quarter; there are 15600 military officers, and only 415 are from Wujuren. There are 3866 military officers in the Banzhi garrison, and 77 of them are of military origin, accounting for only one-fiftieth.” (Song Dynasty official selection and management system)
"Officials without background accounted for the majority, that is, grace, official position, recommendation, miscellaneous entry, and transfer, among which grace also accounted for the majority."

The more Zhu Qiyu heard this number, the more shocked he became. The civil and military personnel selected from the bottom up accounted for only a few tenths of the imperial court. It can only be said that it is worthy of the Great Song Dynasty.According to Yu Qian's words, he said: "If they ask for favor, I will also be kind, and I didn't say no. The two sons of Wang Fu, I just gave them kindness."

"Is Your Majesty the Enyin official?" Yu Qian asked rhetorically.

Zhu Qiyu shook his head and said: "Of course not. The officials from Enyin don't do anything, even if they do, they can't do it, can they? If they screw up, I have to punish them. It's better to let them be rice bugs."

Yu Qian immediately replied: "That's it. The influx of the Song Dynasty was too much, and the early Northern Song Dynasty was better. Most of them were Jinshi Juren, but later they were full of grace, and not only Jilu officials, but also can go to work. This is The source of the corruption of officials in the Song Dynasty."

"These benevolent officials hold most of the power, and most of them are rich and poor. The corruption of the government is conceivable. The two Song Dynasties achieved hereditary replacement through Enyin."

Zhu Qiyu suddenly realized: "It turns out that this is the rule of the world with the scholar-bureaucrats in the Song Dynasty. It turns out that it is such a rule."

Yu Qian said that in the Song Dynasty, the old Zhao family and the scholar-bureaucrats jointly ruled the world, not just making accusations out of thin air, but breaking things apart based on facts and evidence.Crushed, spoken clearly and clearly.

Hu Wei took over the conversation and added: "When we arrived in Ming Dynasty, because Enyin didn't do anything, he lost his authority. We had to discount [-]% of the salary of our Daming Dynasty before, and most of them couldn't pay it back. Whether this kindness or not It is not the key to hereditary succession."

"Then how to achieve hereditary replacement? There is fraud in the examination hall."

In the Jingtai period, the Jilu officials who did not do anything were also paid with full salary. Sufficient salary was the prerequisite for the Ming Dynasty to fight against corruption and arrest corruption. After the captain's power over the Wucheng soldiers and horses, the princes' son-in-law captains were crazy, and the reason for their awkwardness with the emperor.

Yu Qian is still an official in the court, and it is inconvenient for Yu Qian to say some things, but now that Hu Yi has no official status, he directly speaks the words clearly and puts the matter on the table. It's from Enke.

For example, Nianfu, the governor of Huguang, who is about to return to Beijing, was born in the deputy list of the examination, and he is not in the first, second and third best. In my eyes, a special Jinshi is not a Jinshi.

There are tens of millions of scholars in Ming Dynasty, how many people can leap into the dragon's gate in Enke once every three years?Even if it is in the sub list, it is enough to honor the lintel.

Since the absolute number of bureaucrats cannot be guaranteed systematically, power is indirectly controlled by controlling the ascending channel.

During Zhengtong years, Pei Lun, the current governor of Shandong, refused to make it easy for his son-in-law because the chief examiner of the examination was upright and strict, and finally went back to the county to compile the county annals.

Zhu Qiyu immediately understood what Yu Qian and Hu Wei wanted to say. Yu Qian simply cited the redundant officials of the Southern Song Dynasty as an excuse, and then Hu Wei added that the two of them were telling the emperor where these silverfish who steal the country for personal gain want His Majesty to be. Surrender on one side, how to surrender.

Although Yu Qian simply brought up the selection of officials to talk about the matter, it was not just the imperial examination selection, but all aspects. The silverfish hoped that the emperor would surrender.

Will His Majesty the Emperor surrender?

will not.

Silverfish who steal the country for personal gain, how many regiments do they have?

Why press the head of the great emperor and force the emperor to surrender!
The courtiers of the Ming Dynasty really liked to use the examples of the Song Dynasty to give advice, both civil and military.

Zhu Qiyu leaned forward and said to Yu Qian: "If Yu Shaobao came to persuade me not to kill people, it would be in vain."

"Wang Fu and Wang Yue belonged to the Marquis of Yuantai in the Ming Dynasty. The two of them are the core figures in our investigation of information in the northwest direction of the Ming Dynasty. After Beijing, it was only a layer of window paper that was punctured, but it is this layer of window paper, if I don’t say it can be poked, it can’t be poked.”

"But the news of their return to Beijing spread so quickly, I must arrest the people on this line, send those who should be sent to Jieyuan, beheaded for public display, and all the family members are exiled in Java. "

"My bottom line has always been very clear. No matter how hard we fight, the soldiers who are running around for the safety of the Ming Dynasty cannot touch the bottom line. This involves whether I can sit firmly on this chair."

Yu Qian frowned and said, "Shouldn't the Yi tribes be?"

"Huh? Yu Shaobao is making progress by retreating, is he persuading me to forgive you?" Zhu Qiyu was taken aback when he heard what Yu Qian said. He thought that Yu Qian was here to persuade him not to kill people, but it turned out to be a very new kind of persuasion Forgive me, I have taken your way, leaving you nowhere to go.

Yu Qian said quite seriously: "The ten serious crimes, with treason as the first evil, means attempting to overthrow the government, state affairs, military affairs, and sacrificial sacrificial affairs, undermining the military government, with the theory of treason, the law of the Ming Dynasty: those who commit ten serious crimes, not eight. The limit of redemption. I think it is reasonable to talk about the three tribes of Yi."

Yu Qian is a minister of the Six Righteousness under the feudal code of ethics who has obeyed the emperor and his ministers for thousands of years, so in some matters, Yu Qian has reason to be more violent than Zhu Qiyu.

Yu Qian explained in detail the name of the punishment. Heinous crimes are ten felonies in the law of the Ming Dynasty. Unpardonable is not only an amnesty for the whole world, but also a felony that cannot be pardoned by eight discussions. This case involves Rongzheng. The crime of treason in an attempt to subvert and overthrow the imperial court.

"Those charged with ten heinous crimes, even though there is no connection with the intention of committing a crime, the three tribes of Yi, in order to receive the effect of intimidation and punishment." Hu Wei also added why the three tribes of Yi should be used for the effect of intimidation and punishment.

Zhu Qiyu pondered for a moment and shook his head and said: "There is a saying in Jin Shu's criminal law records: crimes are not related, and the ancient system is the same. Those who are near are rebellious, and the sincerity is fierce. The fierceness is so powerful that it can be used for a while. It is not holy to implement it now. The decrees of the dynasty should be like the system of eliminating the three clans in the first dynasty."

"After this point, there is no written document of the Yi tribe, I think it's inappropriate."

The crime of the Yi tribe was completely abolished from the criminal names of the Central Plains Dynasty after the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. Although this crime was never established after it was completely abolished, it was still enforced, such as the case of Hu Weiyong in the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Qiyu, Yu Qian, and Hu Wei had some disagreements on the charges for handling this matter. Zhu Qiyu still wanted to punish the culprit, but Yu Qian and Hu Wei thought they should sit together.

Zhu Qiyu looked at Yu Qian and said: "People cannot be established without faith, businesses cannot prosper without faith, and a country cannot prosper without faith. Since there is no written law in the country, how can I judge the tribes of barbarians?"

Yu Qian is very good at the system of the country, and he can understand His Majesty's great journey. After thinking for a moment, he bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

Yu Qian said that Shengming is not lenient, because this matter is not that His Majesty is not angry, on the contrary, His Majesty is very angry and burning with anger.

However, when the emperor was extremely angry, he still followed the law to deal with state affairs instead of dealing with state affairs with his personal will and opinions. This was a great thing for Ming Dynasty.

Acting strictly in accordance with the law is the core idea of ​​Legalism, while the core idea of ​​Confucianism is orderly respect and inferiority. As the supreme emperor, he has the final interpretation of the law.

Yu Qian is a Confucian student. When he thinks about problems, he thinks subconsciously from Confucianism, but ignores the consequences once the emperor treats the tribes as barbarians. The Ming Dynasty is a rule of man. Laws are not followed, enforcement is lax, and power and blame abound. If there is no written treatment here, then the whole Ming Dynasty will have a decent learning.

Zhu Qiyu thought about it for a long time, and said uncertainly: "Why do I still feel that Yu Shaobao is advising me on the way of benevolence and forgiveness?"

"Then it's better for the Yi tribe." Yu Qian said immediately, the great crime of treason, even the Han Palace, could not escape. His Majesty is really the Yi tribe, and the bad influence caused by Yu Qian can also deal with it. If His Majesty is really unlucky , If you want to vent your anger, then the Yi tribe.

After Zhu Qiyu heard about it, he finally made a decision and said: "The chief culprit should be sent to the prison, the accomplices beheaded for public display, and all the family members are exiled to Java, which is regarded as waste utilization, and has contributed to the Ming Dynasty's maritime affairs."

Yu Qian thought for a while and said, "Why don't you exile Kang?"

Zhu Qiyu was silent for a moment, nodded and said: "Ah, this is really a good idea, Yu Shaobao, he is indeed a scholar."

In terms of viciousness, as a scholar, Yu Qian is extremely qualified in this respect. His family members were exiled to Kang, and when they arrived in Wang Fu's territory, Wang Fu still wanted to deal with them?It is indeed shady.

Hu Wei had a deep understanding of human nature. He shook his head and said, "It's better to go to Java. If you are exiled to Kang, Duke Kang will not treat them badly. Instead, he will give them special preferential treatment. After all, everyone is away from home."

The reason is the same as that of Ming scholars who were sent to government factories to do hard labor. Naturally, they had to do a little more work, but they were still the best-paid group of people.

In the matter of not being a human being, silverfish has never been a human being, but Wang Fu is a person who puts public affairs first and then privates. He puts Daming's interests first, and treats these exiled family members preferentially, which is beneficial to Daming's restraint of Kang. One can imagine Wang Fu's attitude choose.

After Zhu Qiyu and Yu Qian heard about it, they both felt inexplicably sad: This good man deserves to be pointed at by a gun?

Inside and outside of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor's fury was felt. The Jinyi Guards, who had rarely been dispatched in recent years, began to mobilize. Gansu and even Qingtai, the capital of the Western Regions, quickly unfolded under Tiqi's Xiuchun knife.

Lu Zhong, the left governor of Jinyiwei, personally picked it up, and Li Yongchang, the governor of the East Factory, was the supervisor, which proved His Majesty's determination to investigate and deal with the matter.

The last day of Tianming Festival was the day of the Great Ming Dynasty's Spring and Autumn Parade. Before heading to Beitu City, Zhu Qiyu looked at the melodies brought back by Lu Zhonghe, who was busy in the world, and kept tapping his fingers on the desk.

As the leader of Daming Water Monkey, Lu Zhong's ability to handle affairs is unquestionable. In the original historical line, as long as the emperor had the determination, Lu Zhong could even kill Ming Baozong.

"Dudu Lu worked hard on this errand. If it wasn't for Aiqing, I wouldn't know about the Northwest, and it has already been corrupted to this point." Zhu Qiyu looked at the memorial in his hand, and the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became.

The person who handed the note to Ke Qian was the Secretary of the Shaanxi Chief Secretary Zuo Buzheng Sun Yu, and this note was not that the Secretary was using the authority of Zuo Buzheng under the guise of the authority, but really came from Sun Yu's instruction. In addition, the right Yang Zhen, the chief minister, Lou Liang, the political envoy, Yu Zijun, the inspector envoy, and Liu Jing, the commander envoy, all participated in it.

And the three divisions of Shaanxi Province acted in this way, and they were using actions to oppose the court proposal of Ming Dynasty to reopen the Western Regions and set up the Western Regions.

Raising bandits' self-respect and colluding with internal and external parties have never been new since ancient times. Shi Jingtang was able to dedicate the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun for the sake of power and profit, and was willing to be the emperor. The Third Division of Shaanxi took practical actions to protect their vital interests.

To Zhu Qiyu's surprise, there were no Beijing officials involved this time.

The reason is simple, the Beijing officials are closer to the emperor, and they know better than the local officials the temper of Zhu Qiyu, the king of subjugation, and know which places can be touched and which places really can't be touched.

　In the eyes of the Beijing officials, the emperor is an extremely violent monarch. After all, Jiejieyuan is in the capital, so the Beijing officials are still somewhat submissive. They really made the emperor anxious. No matter what written laws or regulations, I will kill your whole family No one can persuade you to destroy your nine clans.Whether it is Yang Shan, or the head of the Bailudong Academy and the emperor, they dare to speak out their inner thoughts only when they are clear that the emperor is not implicated. In ancient times, when the emperor judged crimes, most of the criminals thanked the emperor for his kindness. , Beep beep angered the emperor, it was a joke about his relatives.Ask for a monthly ticket, woo! ! ! ! ! ! !
