Jinyi champion

Everything was as Zhu Hao expected.

Judging from Zhu Si's strategy against Zhu Hao, it is basically obedient at present.

Three days after he ascended the throne, he took his mother to the capital to speak for the queen mother, which immediately caused an uproar in the court. After a group of people argued hard, Zhu Si immediately changed his strategy and made a bolder proposal. Do you disagree with me taking my mother to the palace? come?Said the name is not correct?Then I will name it!

Not only do I want to name my mother the Empress Dowager, but my father also names me the Emperor!

The civil servants were in chaos.

The grand ceremony has taken shape, and the ministers are thinking about how to refute the new emperor from the legal point of view, and at the same time let the new emperor know the interests of civil servants.

At this time, the means of civil servants also began to appear. While dealing with Zhu Si, preparing to discuss the issue of grand ceremonies, at the same time, arranging six subjects to impeach officials who did not belong to Yang Tinghe's faction in the court. Serving in the house, flattering, sticking to one's position, not thinking about the emperor's favor, in general, it is a big problem, if you say you are guilty, you are guilty.

This time, not only Wang Qiong and Wang Xian were involved in the impeachment, but also Yang Tan, Minister of the Ministry of Households, and Li Nai, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, were also involved in the impeachment.

It is equivalent to saying that among the six books, except for Mao Cheng, the Minister of Rites who belonged to Yang Tinghe's direct line, and Zhang Zilin, the Minister of Punishment who was always known for his fairness and strictness and was very close to Yang Tinghe, the other four were impeached.

Among them, Wang Qiong was impeached for the most crimes, which shows that orthodox civil officials hate him deeply.

In particular, the words of Zhang Jiuxu's Shangzuo in the official affairs were the most severe.

Zhang Jiuxu lamented that in the past few years, Wang Qiong had devoted himself to power sycophants, ignoring the appointment and removal of generals in the Northwest Army, and the reward and punishment system. The cabinet, the courtiers fear and avoid it."

These memorials were proposed by the cabinet headed by Yang Tinghe as "strict investigation", which is equivalent to kicking the ball to the new emperor Zhu Si.

When you become the emperor, don't you want the new official to take office three fires?We are afraid that your three fires are not burning enough, so we will add fuel to your fire and see how you deal with it.

"...Your Majesty was in the court today, and was forced to question by the censor, and the officials of the science and Taoism were even more obstinate and asked His Majesty to punish him immediately. Even if several ministers immediately asked to resign, it would not help. I guess...the matter is not so easy to settle. , Tomorrow's court meeting, something big is bound to happen!"

The person who came to ask Zhu Hao and Tang Yin for advice this time was no longer Lu Song, but Zhang Zuo himself.

Zhang Zuo is very beautiful now.

As the highest-ranking eunuch in the royal family, after arriving in the capital, he became the eunuch in charge of the chief of ceremonies. Although he didn't know much about handling these government affairs, he also knew that he could not follow the cabinet's proposals, otherwise the emperor's majesty would not be complete. However, he had to come up with his own ideas and balance the interests of several parties. With Zhang Zuo's current ability, he seemed stretched and exhausted.

When encountering major events, Zhang Zuo has little ability to preside over the situation, and Wei Bin is stirring up trouble... After all, Wei Bin himself is also the target of impeachment, and Wei Bin's impeachment is even more severe, so he needs to avoid suspicion.

Now Zhang Zuo could only run outside the palace gate to seek help from Tang Yin and Zhu Hao.

Tang Yin held a teacup in his hand, looked at Zhu Hao, and took the time to ask, "What do you think?"

Lu Song and Luo An next to them were also very anxious. They were going to accept Zhu Hao and Tang Yin's suggestion to further deal with Jiang Bin and others, which involved issues such as interrogation or conviction, but now these things can only be put aside for the time being. Prepare for the battle against the court in the future.

Zhu Haodao: "In the past ten years, there were so many sycophants in the court, and the court officials and sycophants had no choice but to contact each other. It was really a last resort.”

Zhang Zuo interrupted Zhu Hao, and said: "Mr. Zhu, we all understand what you said. Your Majesty doesn't want to cause too many changes in the court when he ascends the throne. Make a change."

Zhu Hao spread his hands: "Then it will get better!"

Tang Yin finally put down his teacup, got up and said: "To put it lightly, you know that the four ministers of the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Industry have been impeached. If all of them change, the situation in the court will also change greatly. These four departments are all under the control of the cabinet, so His Majesty will struggle in the future."

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "Even if it is a change, does it have to be changed according to the cabinet's opinion? Whoever the academicians say is in charge, that's who?"

"Uh……"

Tang Yin was choked back by Zhu Hao's words.

Zhang Zuo's eyes were bright, and he said: "Our family has actually told His Majesty about this matter. If we agree to participate in impeachment and let several ministers return to their hometowns, then we can take the opportunity to select a group of trusted ministers. Although cabinet ministers, The speaker does not agree, but as long as the selected person is a person of high morals and prestige, I don’t know who can be used, and I will not be strongly rejected by the cabinet ministers and the speaker.”

Hearing this, Tang Yin understood.

It is not necessary for him and Zhu Hao to come up with suggestions for everything, and Zhang Zuo also thought about being on his own, in order to reflect his value as the eunuch who is in charge of rites and seals.

Although Zhang Zuo's ability is not good, Zhang Zuo can do some basic suggestions.

Zhu Haodao: "It's impossible for all of them to become officials. Wang Xian of the Ministry of War, Yang Tan of the Ministry of Households, and Li Nai of the Ministry of Industry, the three of them have no major faults. Civil servants don't hold a deep grudge against them. It is almost impossible for the Ministry of War to retreat completely because it is too close to the officials, so they can only be punished together with the officials."

What Zhu Hao meant was that since Yang Tan and Li Wei didn't offend the cabinet minister system, the problem could be solved by letting them become officials.

But Wang Qiong and Wang Xian must be investigated by the cabinet ministers to the end.

Zhang Zuo pondered for a while, then nodded.

"It's a matter of seriousness."

Zhu Hao scratched the paper a few times, "There is a vacancy in the Ministry of Officials, and there is no way to fight it. This must be the main goal of the cabinet ministers mobilizing the officials to participate in the impeachment of the four ministries. They want to get the right to appoint and remove officials. It's better to let them nominate, and you don't have to refuse when Ting pushes. The problem lies in the other three departments, and the household department must be controlled by trusted people..."

Zhang Zuo suddenly said: "I heard that Huang Shangshu of the Nanjing Household Department has a lot to do with Xing Wangfu."

When Zhu Hao heard this, he thought, could it be that Su Xigui's gift has already been delivered to Zhang Zuo?Are you going to recommend Huang Zan so soon?
Of course Zhu Hao didn't want Huang Zan to come into the muddy water at this time, so he immediately shook his head: "Huang Shangshu is probably the next step for the cabinet ministers to congregate for impeachment, so there is no need to drag him to the forefront...how about Anlu's local name Confucianism, Elder Sun will succeed you."

Zhang Zuo looked at Tang Yin, seeing that Tang Yin didn't express anything, he immediately blinked and said, "This is an excellent candidate."

After all, there was friendship between Sun Jiao and Prince Xing's mansion. Although the children's family failed in the end, the old Xing Wang Zhu Youzhao respected Sun Jiao very much, and there was only one big man at the court's hall level in Anlu. There is a change in the court, who else to look for if not Sun Jiao?

"What about the Ministry of War?"

Tang Yin asked.

"The Ministry of War wants to fight, but it can't fight."

Zhu Hao smiled and shook his head, "In my estimation, most of the candidates proposed by the cabinet are Peng Ze, who had a deep grudge with Wang Qiong, Minister of the Ministry of Officials... This person may quickly fall to the side of the cabinet ministers, only the Ministry of Industry, and perhaps I can do something."

Zhang Zuo said knowingly: "That means that the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War will not compete, and first get the two ministers of the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Industry. I don't know who is selected as the minister of the Ministry of Industry?"

As a person who is familiar with history, Zhu Hao, if he followed the historical development, he would recommend them in order to ensure that the political system in the early Jiajing years of the Ming Dynasty would not experience too much fluctuation, and to compress the influence of the butterfly effect within a reasonable range.

But now he no longer has to be so cautious and conservative.

"Zhao Huang, the right servant of the Ministry of Industry."

Zhu Hao proposed candidates.

Having experienced the test of history, he has had the opportunity of trial and error and correction. Lin Jun, who had been at home for ten years, was appointed by the imperial court as Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and then became a party of Yang Tinghe, who opposed the emperor everywhere.Tao Yan, who followed closely behind, did not make any achievements in the Ministry of Industry, and finally handed over the position of Minister of the Ministry of Industry to Zhao Huang.

Although Zhao Huang is a civil servant, he has an advantage. He never forms a clique and belongs to the representative of "Zhengchen". Such a person will not be used by Yang Tinghe, and will not participate in such sharp conflicts as the Daliyi. Nor will he be completely obedient to the imperial power, and will be a representative of the court who can do practical things.

Zhang Zuo said: "But I don't know much about this person..."

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "I will list his life story and let His Majesty see this person's ability. If His Majesty thinks it is not suitable, it doesn't matter to choose someone else."

Zhang Zuo laughed and said: "Mr. Zhu's proposal is naturally for His Majesty's benefit, how could it be wrong?"

As soon as these words came out, the people around all figured out something.

Doesn't it mean that the candidates for the Daming Department Hall are all decided by Zhu Hao?This power... is comparable to that of an emperor. Even if it is not an emperor, it is definitely at the level of a supervisor. It is estimated that Yang Tinghe will stand aside.

Zhu Hao sighed: "Now is an extraordinary time, I can only do my best to recommend suitable candidates for His Majesty, in order to compete with cabinet ministers, speech officials, etc., I have no intention of influencing the situation of the Ming Dynasty mean."

"Ah? This is natural. We are all our own people. We should be clear about our purpose. Otherwise, His Majesty would not have sent our family to ask Mr. Zhu and Mr. Tang for their opinions."

Zhang Zuo is very knowledgeable.

It was said to ask Zhu Hao and Tang Yin for their opinions, but the main thing was to ask Zhu Hao's opinion.

Even Zhang Zuo knew that Zhu Si absolutely trusted Zhu Hao, followed by Tang Yin.

At this time, who can't see that the new emperor regards Zhu Hao as the "Prime Minister" of Ming Dynasty?
Besides, now that Zhu Sigang has just succeeded to the throne, he is determined to fight Yang Tinghe and other civil officials, so there is no need to consider whether Zhu Hao is suspected of overstepping.

Besides, even if Zhu Hao's proposal was inappropriate, Yang Tinghe wouldn't propose another candidate if the emperor didn't take the initiative to propose it?At that time, if there is no suitable person to fill the vacancy, they will be suppressed by the cabinet ministers, and the people selected in the end will all be members of the cabinet ministers' faction. Isn't that bad luck?

When it is consistent with the outside world, the internal grouping seems to be very important.

"It's getting late, our family has to go back to the palace to report, Lu Dianzhan... Oh no, I should call you Lu Qianhu, can you escort our family back?"

When Zhang Zuo went out of the palace, he was afraid of being stared at by others, so he dressed lightly, but it was hard to guarantee that someone with a heart would stare at him and carry out the assassination act. It can also be seen from this that everyone in the new emperor faction is in danger. hug each other tightly.
