golden scales

When Li Banghua took over the "Emperor Ming Bulletin" that day, he had already proposed to set up a cultural management department under the Metropolitan Procuratorate. It can be seen that the experienced country seekers can indeed know everything from one glance to the next. to speak of.

When the "Jiangnan Shilin Daily" spread to Shandong, Zhu Cihong knew that he had awakened a huge beast called news and public opinion.

As soon as this beast was born, it showed its fangs and bit it fiercely.

"He called me 'Ni Chu'. Is there any allusion?" Zhu Cihong took the time to ask a group of knowledgeable scholars.

From Li Banghua to Wu Tong, and even Sun Chuanting, Cai Maode and others, no one dared to answer.These people are all well-educated scholars, and they are all ministers who became officials before the Chongzhen Dynasty. The incident of scolding Wei Zhongxian as a "rebellious eunuch" is vivid in my memory, and this "reverse reserve" is obviously born from this.

It's not that Zhu Cihong himself couldn't think of it, it's just that he wasn't mentally prepared.Whether he was in the palace or in the army all his life, if he went out for a walk occasionally, he could see the strict etiquette system everywhere.Even if Feng Shikong and others confronted him head-on in Xi'an that day, at most they would only accuse the Crown Prince of improper actions, and they would never dare to call out such a terrible word "rebellion".

Among the heinous crimes, there are two kinds of treason and treason.Conspiracy is a conspiracy to destroy ancestral temples, imperial tombs and palaces.Violence is the beating and murder of relatives.Judging from the context, the reverse here should be accusing the prince of putting the emperor under house arrest and isolating China and foreign countries.

"Is there any way to do this?" Zhu Cihong asked, "You can't just leave it alone, can you?"

Wu Chen smiled wryly and said: "What else can we do? The theory that Jiangnan is not a king is not a day or two. If the salary is fined, they don't care; if they are dismissed, they will travel freely in the forest; if they are sentenced, it is the old man who sells his name. The method is considered to have fulfilled them."

"Besides, it may not be possible to arrest people now." Zhou Yingqi, who has been seldom speaking, said coldly: "During the sixth year of the apocalypse, Wei Xie sent Tiqi to arrest Zhou Shunchang, and it turned out to be a riot. Speaking of which, Zhou Shunchang has successively served as a pusher in Fuzhou and a member of the Wenxuan Wai Lang, what kindness does he have for Wu Min? Maybe there are other pushers behind him."

Zhou Yingqi has little contact with Zhu Cihong, and is currently mainly responsible for the resettlement of new immigrants.From the regulations, he could tell that the Crown Prince was not a stupefied young man, but he was worried that His Highness had too little experience.Unable to see through the truth under the thick fog, I purposely spoke clearly.

Zhu Cihong had to memorize "The Tombstone of Five People" when he was studying in his previous life. He only thought that the eunuch party had aroused the righteous indignation of the people, and he never thought about it deeply.As the prince of the Ming Dynasty in this life, he is deeply touched by the aftermath of the party struggle.Then restore this period of history to the background of party struggles, and the previous understanding becomes a bit out of shape.

Hearing what Zhou Yingqi said at this moment, he immediately woke up.If I want to get to the bottom of this matter, someone will definitely set off a new civil unrest!At that time, I will use some people's status in the literary world to write two essays.My own infamy through the ages is also determined.

Thinking of this, Zhu Cihong was quite thankful that he resisted the temptation to go to the south of the Yangtze River, otherwise it would be impossible to guard against this secret method alone.If you want to do things freely like in Shandong, not to mention the memorials in the court, the civil disturbances below are too much to bear.

"I see," Zhu Cihong nodded, "Since this is the battlefield I chose, I have to follow the rules honestly. Fight this battle."

Everyone secretly thought: How do you fight this spat?

"Mr. Li, the Anthology Department of the Metropolitan Procuratorate still needs to issue a memorial as soon as possible. It is recommended to supervise newspapers and periodicals and formulate the "Emperor Ming Publishing Law." Zhu Cihong said: "In the future, all manuscripts, whether engraved or movable type, must be submitted for review and applied for. Book number. Anyone who wants to run a newspaper must first pay a deposit of 1 taels of silver.

"If there are people who are not kings, ten evils, prostitutes and thieves in the newspaper, they will be warned once, the deposit will be confiscated the second time, and the business will be suspended for rectification. After the closure, Ghana 5 taels, and the deposit will be confiscated for repeat offenders. And any public reading materials will be banned for life. If they pay a deposit and then stop doing it, the money will be returned intact, lest they say that I am collecting money.

"Also, newspapers must charge a fee, otherwise they will print leaflets privately! Convicting the public with false rumors." Zhu Cihong has a plan in his mind, and he first used the news management system of later generations, and the details will be perfected in the future.

"Your Highness, will this be accused of banning people's mouths and blocking the way of speech?" Li Banghua only asked this question for others. The establishment of a cultural management department to supervise the newspaper industry was the first thing he thought of.

"No, this is also to protect themselves." Zhu Cihong said to himself: "If there is no threshold, anyone can make a fuss. What good will it do them?"

"I'm afraid they can't think of it." Wu Tong said.

"They will know soon." Zhu Cihong smiled.

Wu Zhen had seen such a smile on the crown prince more than once. Although some did not match his age, it undoubtedly showed that the thousand-year-old Lord already had a whole set of secrets.

After the regular meeting was over, when he was about to schedule out, Zhu Cihong suddenly said: "Mr. Wu and Mr. Sun stay for a while, I have something to say."

Seeing that two pavilion elders were left all of a sudden, everyone knew that this matter was no small matter, so they quickened their pace.Wu Zhen and Sun Chuanting waited at the same spot, and only returned to this seat after everyone had gone out.

"Now this matter is a bit troublesome," Zhu Cihong said, "I said I didn't put the emperor under house arrest, but someone killed me and said I was a traitor. I can't push the emperor into the fire pit of Nanjing. What do the two gentlemen think about this matter?" How about doing it?" In this era, there are only texts, and there are no radio speeches—well, if someone insists on raising an argument, it is useless to make a video for them to watch.

Wu Xuan cleared his throat, and said, "Recently, Nan Chen has often traveled to the north, and I heard that they are all waiting for the holy driver in Jinan. I think that they can return to the south of the Yangtze River to serve as officials, and ask the sage to grant his majesty's resignation. As long as they receive the official seal , if you want to say that His Highness puts the Holy Majesty under house arrest, you have to think about it carefully."

"It's a good idea, but..." Zhu Cihong frowned slightly: "Will they use my charter?"

"What's the matter, Your Highness?" Wu Tong suddenly smiled and said, "They became officials, but they didn't abide by the rules, aren't they all evidence of crime?"

Zhu Cihong slapped his forehead: "Recently, I heard my master talk about "Spring and Autumn", and it was a bit roundabout."

The corners of Wu Xuan's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself: It doesn't make sense for you to splash so much dirty water...

"That's very good," Zhu Cihong said decisively, "The matter of sending officials to the south of the Yangtze River is entirely up to the emperor's father. Now that he has lost power, he is quite depressed."

Make use of everything and never waste a single opportunity or resource.

Wu Chen pursed his lips and smiled.

"This matter is over, let's move on to the next one." Zhu Cihong turned to Sun Chuanting and said with a smile, "Mr. Sun, the military department seems to be quite free now."

Sun Chuanting said with a wry smile: "Your Highness is self-governing the army, and the Ministry of War is indeed not a big deal. In the past, it was necessary to survey and combine the number of soldiers in each town and distribute the true nature of the army's salary, but now it is beyond what it can. Even the towns everywhere understand the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households. Without money, I don’t even bother to ask for it.”

Now all the income and resources are directly allocated by the East Palace, so of course the Ministry of War doesn't have those things to do.

"The Ministry of War is not just a matter of distributing money." Zhu Cihong said: "The number of troops that should be surveyed and combined still needs to be surveyed and combined. Military generals in each town will be raised and lowered, and data must be collected. Especially now that many places are still under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, mountains and rivers Rivers, maps of various terrains, sand tables, the number of people stationed in the village, what to produce...these things must also be done.”

"Your Highness," Sun Chuanting said with a smile, "if so, I will have to ask for money."

"Give as much as you need." Zhu Cihong said: "Sooner or later, these things will be done, and it may be useful if done early. Well, the four provinces of Huguang, Fujian and Guangdong are the most important, and in the future they will use troops."

Sun Chuanting looked suspicious: "Your Highness, don't you want to build Shanxi and Henan first?"

"There won't be a big fight between these two provinces." Zhu Cihong said: "It depends on who can steal it. Well, speaking of this, the Ministry of War will also keep a file of information on active duty and Xiangyong in the future."

"Your Highness...I'm afraid this is not good?" Sun Chuanting was a little surprised: "The custom made by the ancestors must have a reason."

"The Taizu set up the Five Armies Commander's Mansion. He only thought about the separation of powers, but he didn't limit powers and balance. Just looking at the South and Beijing camps, you know that this system can no longer be used." Zhu Cihong shook his head. (To be continued, please search, the novel is better and updated faster!
