Chapter 413 Zhu Zhen is seriously ill

Lin Cunde reminded Zhu Qiyu that the power of the cabinet should not be too great. If it is too great, His Majesty and the Six Ministries will be sidelined!

After hearing this, Zhu Qiyu nodded, and then said worriedly: "That's true, but if the cabinet minister has no experience, it will be difficult to handle those memorials. Therefore, the chief minister of the cabinet needs to have a lot of experience, and he must also convince the public. If It won’t work if you don’t have some prestige!

Therefore, Chen Xun is the best in this position now! But if Chen Xun is replaced and Jiang Yuan is replaced, I'm afraid it will be a problem in the long run!

Sometimes, when civil servants compete for power, they go one after another. Now Jiang Yuan is actually competing with Chen Xun for these powers. But once Chen Xun is gone, Jiang Yuan will compete with me for these powers!

The court needs balance, civil and military affairs also need balance!

If there is an imbalance, something big will happen!

Therefore, Chen Xunzhen will stay. Wang Zhi is old and it is estimated that it will be difficult for him to be qualified for the position of chief minister of the cabinet!

Shang Ren is too young to succeed Chen Xun!

And Gao Gu, well, although this person has experience, but, how should I put it, he used to take Chen Xun as the leader. If Chen Xun is gone, it is not known whether Gao Gu can take over. Moreover, Gao Gu does not have as many people as Jiang Yuan now. supporters!

If Chen Xun falls, there will be even fewer people supporting Gao Gu. Therefore, let’s continue to cultivate him now, keep Chen Xun and give me some time to win! "Zhu Qiyu sat there and said to Lin Cunde.

Lin Cunde nodded. Chen Xun's previous judgment was correct. Otherwise, how could he have become a veteran of the Five Dynasties!

"However, for those civil servants, some still need to be replaced this year. Nowadays, some officials have emerged in the provinces that are implementing the New Deal. They are not bad and worthy of promotion. Therefore, in the second half of next year, I plan to promote some officials back to Beijing. And some of the fifth and sixth grade officials in the capital should also go to local posts and cannot stay here in the capital!" Zhu Qiyu continued!

Lin Cunde agreed and said: "That's it. Those officials in the capital have no idea about the difficulties of civil governance. They sit in the capital and have no idea about the things below. They just make decisions with a slap on the forehead. This is not acceptable. !”

"Well, we still have to be careful this year. I'm worried that those vassal kings don't really want to hand it over, and whether those county kings will have any objections. Although there won't be any big problems, we have to be careful. In addition, this year After the beginning of spring, we will send cavalry to Oara, and the Japanese pirates are in the southeast area. If the feudal kings and county kings make trouble, there will be another war!" Zhu Qiyu said worriedly to Lin Cunde.

"Then, can your Majesty attack Oara a year later, and then bring Zhu Zhen back after the affairs of the vassal kings are finished? Only in this way can everything be foolproof!" Lin Cunde looked at Zhu Qiyu and said.

Lin Cunde thought for a long time and felt that this was still unreliable. The Ming Dynasty could not have civil strife. It must be completely eliminated. Otherwise, when the war broke out, the people would suffer again. So he persuaded Zhu Qiyu and said: "But, if those vassal kings and They contacted Zhu Zhen. They used Zhu Zhen's reputation and the banner of Zhu Zhen to resist the court. But what should they do? Most of the areas controlled by the vassal kings have not yet implemented the New Deal!

Because once Zhu Qizhen comes back, if those vassal kings don't abandon those lands, they may rise up and support Zhu Qizhen to regain the throne!

Zhu Qiyu sat there thinking about Lin Cunde's words, and finally nodded and said: "After the dynasty, I will talk to Wang Zhi and let Wang Zhi do the hard work. I dare not say that the nationwide promotion will be completed, but there are a few important The place still needs to be promoted first!”

In this way, Taifu Yu needs to complete the promotion of Shanxi and Shaanxi as soon as possible. He even said that he would send Wang Zhi to Shu and Guizhou for promotion. Only in this way can these things be avoided! "

"Hey, no! You don't know Zhu Zhen's situation now. One of Zhu Zhen's hands is frozen, and his feet are also frozen. Moreover, although there are our people serving him, he, eh, the Wala people If you often have to move, you have to take him with you. In winter, it is a kind of torture for him, but summer is better!

The envoy sent there said that if he was allowed to stay there for another year, he might not be able to stand it anymore. He heard that he was suffering from all kinds of illnesses and would even walk with a limp! He was over there in Wala, but he suffered a lot! "Zhu Qiyu waved his hand and said, if he is allowed to die in Wala, although his reputation will not be damaged, his conscience will be troubled!

"That's what I mean!" Lin Cunde said, cupping his hands, and then poured tea for Zhu Qiyu!

"I have almost finished promoting Qian and Wang Zhi, so I sent an envoy to bring Zhu Zhen back. I can't delay it any longer. If I die there, I will have uneasy conscience for the rest of my life, even though I know that he must die. , even I know that I should kill him, but it is difficult for me to do it!

I can watch him die of illness, but I cannot watch him die suddenly or be assassinated! "Zhu Qiyu said with a sigh to Lin Cunde. Zhu Qiyu also knew that this was his weakness, but he couldn't control this weakness!

However, Lin Cunde did not think of Zhu Qiyu that way. Instead, he knew in his heart that Zhu Qiyu was mature now. There was no rush to kill Zhu Zhen. Moreover, it was right that he could not die suddenly or be assassinated. Zhu Zhen could only die of illness and could only be killed by others. Zhu Qiyu often visits and takes care of him. Watching Zhu Zhen die is what Zhu Qiyu wants to see! He needs to show in front of the civil servants that he is good to his brother and that he is not robbing his brother of the throne! Moreover, my brother died of illness, not killed by himself!

Therefore, after Zhu Qiyu learned that Zhu Zhen was in such a situation on the grassland, he immediately wanted to take him back. He was afraid that Zhu Zhen would die in the grassland and he would miss such an opportunity!

Sometimes, Zhu Qiyu also started acting for the ministers and Lin Cunde!

"Yes, Your Majesty, after this, will Princess Qi also go to live in Nangong? What about Prince Qi and Prince Ji, how will they live? It is better to separate them. Zhu Zhen and Princess Qi will live in Nangong, and Prince Qi and Prince Ji will live there. The king still lives in your former residence?" Lin Cunde looked at Zhu Qiyu and asked.

"What do you think?" Zhu Qiyu looked at Lin Cunde and asked.

"I heard that Princess Qi and Zhu Zhen have a very good relationship. Now Princess Qi is blind in one eye. I don't know if it is true or not!" Lin Cunde looked up at Zhu Qiyu and said!

Zhu Qiyu nodded silently!

"Then let them live together. It will be better if Princess Qi takes care of Zhu Zhen!" Lin Cunde thought for a moment, raised his head and said.

"Well, I will help them. Of course, Xiu Nu also needs to be chosen. Let them take good care of Zhu Zhen!" Zhu Qiyu said lightly. Lin Cunde nodded after hearing this!

Lin Cunde would not express too many opinions on how to deal with Zhu Zhen's matter. After all, Zhu Qiyu had already figured out how to deal with it!

Then Zhu Qiyu began to discuss with Lin Cunde the land issues under the supervision of the court, the issues of the Six Ministries, and what the Six Ministries need to do this year. Zhu Qiyu wanted to hear Lin Cunde's opinion, and Lin Cunde also told Zhu Qiyu everything he knew!

At noon, Zhu Qiyu had dinner at Lin Cunde's mansion. Also eating here were Lin Yunqi and Lin Zhenshan. Zhu Qiyu still asked them about their local positions, and asked in very detail. Zhu Qiyu also wanted to know about the lives of the people below. What a change!

After he ascended the throne, he had not inspected outside, so he actually had no impression of the people's lives in his mind, and he had no such impression when he was a child. Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Qizhen protected him very well.

On the grassland, Zhu Qizhen had just finished soaking his feet. A eunuch helped him soak his feet. After soaking his feet, Zhu Qizhen put on his socks and shoes, stood up, and limped toward the entrance of the tent. At the door, the thick curtain was opened, and the cold wind poured in, making Zhu Qizhen shiver!

"It's better not to look outside. It's estimated that the blizzard won't stop for a while, and it will rain again at night!" The eunuch who was carrying water said to Zhu Qizhen.

"Well!" Zhu Qizhen lowered the curtain, and it was obvious that Zhu Qizhen's entire left hand was visible, except for two fingers. The other fingers were gone!

Then Zhu Zhen walked to the stove and added some dried cow dung into it, hoping that the fire would be stronger. After watching the eunuch pour the water, Zhu Qizhen said with a smile: "You are also unlucky to be sent here. coming!"

"You can't say that. We are originally slaves and serve others!" The eunuch said to Zhu Qizhen, cupping his hands.

Although he has never dared to get too close to Zhu Qizhen, he remembers his mission. His adoptive father is Cheng Jing!

However, although he kept a distance, he still talked a lot about the capital to Zhu Zhen. After all, there were only two of them in this tent. They were together every day, so they had to talk, right?

Moreover, Zhu Qizhen is indeed very approachable, so this eunuch gradually became able to talk about things in the capital!

"Do you think His Majesty will take me back to Beijing this year?" Zhu Qizhen tightened his clothes and said to the eunuch.

The eunuch shook his head and said: "How does this slave know? I just know and take good care of you. I don't dare to think about anything else!"

"Ha!" Zhu Qizhen smiled, said no more, and just sat on the edge of the bed!

The eunuch saw that Zhu Qiyu was silent, so he just sat next to him and said nothing!

"It's probably going to be migrating in a few days, cough cough cough~~ I don't know if I can survive it, this guy is so cruel! I am his brother! We are just two brothers, and there is not one more, this bastard ! Cough cough cough~" You Zhu Qizhen said and started to scold again, but the coughing has not healed. Although he has taken medicine during this period, every time he coughs, it makes Zhu Qizhen uncomfortable. He Too much cold air is sucked into the lungs, causing lung diseases.
