I was the emperor in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 260

Huang Yan has also been busy outside recently, and he really doesn't know what happened in the palace.

Seeing his aggrieved appearance, Li Tian waved his hands casually and said,

"I can't blame you for this matter, let's forget it this time, but in the future, you must be more cautious in the matter of supervising officials, and you must not make such an oolong again."

Huang Yan hastily saluted respectfully,

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, this old servant will definitely do his best!"

After saying this, Li Tian waved his hands impatiently, wanting him to back down.

However, he suddenly remembered something and called him back again.

"In the recent period, I estimate that there will be a lot of science and Taoism officials in series. You keep an eye on them for me. I want to know what they are talking about in private!"

"It's Your Majesty, this old servant will do his best!"

Seeing his gritted teeth, Li Tian couldn't help but remind him,

"I just asked you to monitor and inquire. If you dare to make unnecessary moves, be careful that I want your head, do you understand!"

After saying this, Li Tian waved his hand again to tell him to leave.

As far as Huang Yan is concerned, his ability to handle affairs is naturally worth mentioning.

It's just that maybe he didn't spend as much time with him as Jiang Bao, Wang Fu and others, and he still couldn't get rid of some habits of those eunuchs in the past.

Greedy, ruthless, deep in the city!
In Li Tian's view, these problems are actually very easy to solve, except for personality defects that cannot be made up and improved the day after tomorrow.

Compared with Jiang Bao and the others, Huang Yan's methods were a little more brutal when he was doing things, and he was more vindictive.

But Li Tian also knows that no matter when, whether it is a prosperous or a troubled time.

As an emperor, there will always be people around who do dirty things.

And Huang Yan is the knife in his hand, which is inconvenient to put in the open.

As long as I can hold him firmly in my hands, there are many inconvenient things that I can leave to him to deal with.

Therefore, Huang Yan used the power in his hands to seek personal gain, Li Tian just turned a blind eye to this, and did not really punish him.

It's because he knows that he still needs such a person for the time being.

It's like, this time let him spy on the private words and deeds of the Kodao spokesperson.

This is simply not something that can be put on the bright side. Since ancient times, there has been no saying that the emperor listened to the words and deeds of his courtiers.

Even if there is, it is unlikely to be put on the bright side.

Among the six subjects, the highest rank is no more than a seventh-rank official.

Originally, Li Tian shouldn't have cared about being a mere speaker.

But standing behind them were famous Confucian scholars, such as Kong Yanjin and his like.

These people seem to have no rights, but they control the direction of the world's tongue and public opinion at this time.

To put it bluntly, sometimes what they say may be more effective than the emperor himself.

What Li Tian cares about is not the private discussion of those speech officials, but what he cares about is the reaction of those great Confucians behind them who can affect the hearts of the world.

Whether it is the reform or the reorganization of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, in fact, they have slowly touched the bottom line of these people. How they will react to these things is beyond Li Tian's expectation.

Although he can kill those who stir up trouble as an example, but the sword alone cannot stop the tongues of the people in the world.

In case, it would not be so easy for them to give themselves the big hat of a troubled people and a generation of faint kings, and it would not be so easy to restore their image.

If at this time, some vassal king who was unwilling to be lonely rose up like Zhu Di back then, the trouble would be even greater.

Taking precautions before they happen is always safer than remedying them later.

This is also one of the main reasons why Li Tian asked Huang Yan to do these dirty things.

After sending Huang Yan away, Li Tian entered a state of doing nothing after a brief lunch.

In fact, it is not that he has nothing to do, there is still a large basket of memorials waiting for him to review in the imperial study, even if he is busy until dawn, he may not be able to finish it.

But compared to dealing with boring official documents, he still prefers to hang around outside the palace.

At this time, three days have passed since the renovation of the match and soap workshop.

Even in the mid-autumn festival, the people in charge of renovating the workshop did not rest. After these three days of intensive renovation, the workshop was ready to officially start.

Today is the official opening of the workshop and the first day of recruitment.

As the first standard workshop born in this era under his own hands, it has epoch-making significance. Li Tian has to watch and emulate it on the spot.

Calling Jiang Bao and others, Li Tian simply put on a casual dress and set off.

……

Deshengmen in the north of the city is Rizhongfang as soon as you enter.

Shichahai passes through the middle of the entire square, dividing the entire Rizhong Square into two parts.

The northern part close to the city wall is the most densely populated place of temples in the entire capital, and it is also the place with the densest flow of people during festivals in the entire capital.

How dense are the temples in this place? Within a radius of only three or four miles, there are Mingshou Temple, Longhua Temple, Guanghua Temple, Thousand Buddha Temple, Miaoyuan Temple and other large temples with hundreds of people.

The two workshops built this time are located near the Desheng Bridge, on the Yangfang Hutong, which is only two or three alleys away from the Huanyi Bureau.

Because it is close to Shichahai, the inner lake of the capital city, it is very convenient to fetch water or transport it.

Li Tian is still very satisfied with this location.

In fact, there are many places close to Shichahai, and I finally chose this place to settle down. One reason is that this place has a relatively concentrated flow of people, and relatively speaking, it is relatively easy to recruit workers.

Another reason is that this place is also the place with the most ordinary civilians.

The workshop has not provided accommodation for the time being. For those people who come to work, returning home as soon as possible after work is what they urgently need.

Otherwise, you have to walk from the south of the city to the north of the city every day to go to work, and the time spent on the road alone is almost two hours, so what energy and strength do you have to work.

As for the places where the monasteries are concentrated, there is actually a reason.

Most of the migrants in the capital would have no place to stay if they had no relatives to join them.

And Buddhist temples often give porridge to these homeless people because they want to make good friends, and give them a place to rest temporarily.

So here became the main gathering place for these homeless people.

And Li Tian's primary recruiting targets are those who live in no fixed place and have no rest after their last meal.

That's why the location of the workshop was decided here.

In less than half an hour, Li Tian and others arrived near the workshop.

But at this time, the two or three alleys in the front and back are almost full of people who have come to apply for the job. It is not an easy task for a few of them to go there.
