Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 402
Zhu Yunying, who was sitting on the dragon chair, was in a good mood. Watching the civil servants continue to fight, he felt happier for no reason, it was so wonderful.

This is probably because Lao Zhu has been unwilling to clarify the position of some ministers for many years, and now the ministers of the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Punishment are vacant.Not to mention that officials in these two films who thought they had a chance to get promoted were also working and performing crazily when they were looking for ways around.

Even the ministers, ministers, etc. of other ministries, or some other officials, are active at this time and want to seize this opportunity.

While the efficiency of work is suddenly raised, it is basically impossible to make mistakes.These official fans kept showing off, which naturally made Zhu Yunying see many "capable ministers and officials" all at once, which made him "respect" the officials' ability to handle affairs.

This is probably the joy of the emperor, and this is probably the enjoyment of the capitalists.Each of them basically draws big cakes, so that the people under them grit their teeth and run forward desperately. The cost of employing people like this is much lower than before.

Zhu Yunying has experienced such happiness now, so please continue to express yourself.Taking advantage of the time when everyone's enthusiasm is relatively high, let these civil servants continue to do more things in a down-to-earth manner, Zhu Yunying feels that there is no need to rush to do something immediately.

When Zhu Yunying was "sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight", he did not forget some things, which affected his reform plan.

Intentionally or unintentionally, the matter of the Shibo Department was brought up, and many civil servants began to divert their attention.And the Wu Xun Group also started to get serious. After all, the Shibo Division has received too much money, so of course everyone needs to pay attention.

Wu Xun Group has long gone to Nanyang and Dongying, sharing a lot of profits.The Civil Service Group has long wanted to snatch Shibosi from the royal family and the Wuxun Group, which is an extremely important source of income.

Not to mention the silver brought back from Japan, it must be put into the national treasury and internal money.However, the spices, jewelry, etc. brought back from Nanyang, and the porcelain, tea, or ironware shipped from Daming can also bring back many good things.

The Ministry of Household Affairs has long wanted to bring the rights of the Shibo Department under its jurisdiction, but unfortunately so far their role is only to help, and they have no way to intervene in the Shibo Department.

The emperor had also expressed his attitude before that the Shibosi is the basic board of the royal family and martial arts. In fact, many civil servants can understand it.Wu Xun is basically more able to spend money, know how to live, and talk about ostentation, but it is definitely not enough to rely on the salary of the court or the output of the land.

The emperor is willing to bring Wu Xun, except that the Wu Xun Group is the pillar of Ming's military power.To some extent, some emperors did not want Wu Xun to intervene in places, or do some corrupt and perverted things.It is not an easy task to win this big cake.

The aristocratic families in the territory can only become suppliers and distributors, although they are greedy for the benefits of maritime trade.But once they go out to sea privately, they will definitely end up beheading and ransacking their homes if caught. Daming's merchant ships are not just merchants, there will definitely be various warships in the fleet.

It is normal for farming civilization to emphasize agriculture and suppress business, that is, the Song Dynasty was more friendly to businessmen.

Naturally, Zhu Yunying will not strictly emphasize agriculture and suppress business. He knows that business can inject more vitality into Ming's economy, but Zhu Yunying doesn't want to see everyone busy doing business, let alone some wealthy people. Businessmen all over the world think of unrealistic fantasies after they become rich.

As a businessman, you must do your part as a businessman.Especially in the current feudal dynasty, some wealthy businessmen will not be too satisfied after earning a certain amount of family wealth. They want to improve their social status.

It would be fine if we just cultivated scholars step by step, but I was afraid that these people would think of using gold and silver to corrupt officials of Ming Dynasty.In other words, the scholars cultivated by these people are not serving the country and the people as officials, but to protect the family property, or collusion between officials and businessmen.

Continuing to cast bait, Zhu Yunying, who is very patient, is ready to put a long line to catch big fish.What's more, his uncles probably couldn't hold back anymore, they must have already started to prepare.

When it comes to leading troops to fight, Zhu Yunying's three uncles are all middle-aged, and even Chang Mao, who was once highly trained, doesn't have much talent.

But if they were to be asked to do some shady things now, to be a dude, to be rich and unkind, they just needed to understand Zhu Yunying's meaning a little bit, and then they could do it very conscientiously, and the effect even exceeded Zhu Yunying's expectations.

Zhu Yunying immediately asked Lian Zining from the Procuratorate to come to the Hall of Martial Arts after he came down to court. This was to remind the Procuratorate to start working and prepare to offend people in an all-round way.Whether it is a civil servant, a martial artist, or a clan, they may be offended in one go.

The Inspectorate is indeed about to get busy. Originally, the Inspectorate was developed from Chiyo's Yushidai, and is in charge of supervision, impeachment and advice.

According to the Thirteen Ways, the Inspectorate during Lao Zhu’s period set up supervisory censors, patrolled prefectures and counties, and specialized in the investigation and impeachment of officials.

So now let the Inspectorate know in advance that the next step is to prepare for the thirteen censors to inspect the places.The Inspectorate and the Ministry of Households should also start preparations, patrolling warehouses, rivers, cities, fields, India and horses, inspecting grain storage, supervising the collection of grain and dendrobium, inspecting sergeants, managing Beijing camps, and comparing military weapons.

This is not just about starting to make a book, counting the cultivated land and population, but also looking at things like Daming's grain reserves, war preparations, or people's livelihood.

When Lao Zhu was in power, because of Lao Zhu's strong wrists, the Ming Dynasty counted household registrations and plowed fields relatively smoothly.And now Zhu Yunying is about to find out officially. His previous information and data are only speculations based on some previous information.

Although there is no accident, the gap is probably not too big, but it still needs to get a good feel for it.After all, it has been more than six years since Lao Zhu's last large-scale investigation, and now it's time to start the investigation again.

This is also because Zhu Yunying has been enthroned for the second year, and many things naturally need to be more fully prepared at this time, so as to facilitate his follow-up series of plans.

It is true that the national power of the Ming Dynasty is increasing, but seeing is believing for many things, so that it will be more confident, such plans can be more solid, and the implementation can be more reliable.

Lian Zining is indeed not afraid of offending others. His status is special and his ambition is relatively lofty. Therefore, as the censor of Zuodu, he can be regarded as Qiqing. He should do more for the Ming Dynasty because of his high position and authority. .

Zhu Yunying also has some other ideas here. The imperial examination will start next year, and another group of Jinshi will enter the court by then.So if the magistrates and co-prefects below are corrupt and pervert the law, Zhu Yunying doesn't mind using some people's heads to kill chickens and monkeys.By the way, move out some positions and let some young officials who have been in the center for a long time go down to practice.

Without the experience of being an official close to the people, it is not enough. If you are not down-to-earth, you don’t understand people’s livelihood, how to share the worries of the king, and how to govern the world!
Lian Zining wasn't the only one doing things that offended people, and it wasn't just the inspectors who were doing it.When they started to act, many people could understand that it must have been ordered by the emperor. At that time, many civil and military officials and corrupt officials might be panicked, and many aristocratic families would also be devastated.

Lian Zining is still very seasoned, he knows that heavy responsibilities lie on his shoulders, he absolutely does not want to disappoint the emperor's trust, and he really hopes to bring a prosperous age to Daming through his own efforts.

So the thing to do now is to start preparing in advance.For example, the Inspectorate's self-inspection, if the Inspectorate is not clean, then they will supervise and investigate, and naturally it will be impossible to bring news that satisfies Zhu Yunying.

Even if the Procuratorate conducts a self-inspection, and even if Zhu Yunying is bound to send people from Dongchang and Jinyiwei to investigate secretly, there is no guarantee that he will be absolutely clean, impartial, and so on.But starting self-examination now can still bring a lot of help to the next action.

Looking at Wang Chengen, Zhu Yunying said, "Have someone prepare a meal, let's go to the Qianqing Palace to have a meal."

Wang Chengen had a bitter expression, and said to Zhu Yunying, "Your Majesty, I have returned to the palace on behalf of the king. The Supreme Emperor is in the Fengxian Hall."

There is no need to say these things clearly, what Lao Zhu said in Fengxian Temple, he took his son with him.If there is no accident, apart from worshiping the ancestors, most of them are still enforcing the family law. Basically, except for Da Zhu, other descendants are treated in this way.

Zhu Yunying asked casually, "Oh? What happened to our thirteenth uncle?"

The acting king, Zhu Gui, was the same age as Zhu Yunying, only more than three months older than Zhu Yunying, and his mother was Concubine Guo Hui, the daughter of Chuyang King Guo Zixing.It can be said that Zhu Gui is quite respectable in the imperial palace, and he is also a relatively 'rare' prince who can become a feudal prince.

After all, he was in the same year as Zhu Yunying, so he became a feudal vassal if he was "preemptive", and Zhu Yunying was not easy to do anything.However, after Zhu Gui, Lao Zhu's son did not have a vassal.As for Zhu Yunying's cousins, cousins, and even nephews, don't expect to become a vassal, even if they are already a vassal, don't plan to seal them off.

Wang Chengen said, "My lord, it is very difficult for the people of the country to serve the army and civilians and collect property on behalf of the king."

Zhu Yunying's complexion suddenly sank, that's why he didn't like the vassal king.

Although according to Lao Zhu's original policy, the vassal king has no administrative power, and the vassal king will not have too many soldiers and horses.But the vassal kings of Jiufan don't care about the suffering of the people. It is one thing to run amok and lawless, but it is another thing for local officials to be unable to punish crimes.Even many local officials will cater to those princes in order to please those princes.

Zhu Yunying got up suddenly, and walked straight towards Fengxian Hall with a cold face.Uncle Huang, Zhu Yunying should still respect what should be respected, and give respect to what should be given respect.

But if his uncles were to behave lawlessly, Zhu Yunying would not be too polite.Even if he is a junior, but now Zhu Yunying is the Son of Heaven, the head of the clan in good standing, he should be the one to decide these matters!
