This is a very sad story, because the governments and departments are in full swing.

The ministers' psychology is actually like Miss Lu, which is difficult to figure out.

For example, Zhu Di was under the banner of restoring the ancestral system and then ascending the throne later, the ministers were actually willing to accept it because those who did not want to accept it had been chopped for meat sauce. This shows that the Ming officials had a very smooth side, which was similar to the process of survival of the fittest in the biological world. Fang Xiaoru, who was unrestrained, was finished, and the people who knew it survived and replaced Fang Xiaoru's position.

Therefore, the court pushed the movement to restore the ancestral system to **. For the Yongle Dynasty, there was only one ancestor in the ancestral system, that is, Emperor Taizu. The conclusion was that we should rectify the situation and continue to govern the world with the rules set by Taizu.

Of course, the slogans were shouted loudly, but in fact no one took this ancestral system seriously. Zhu Di and others were the same.

In the eyes of ministers, this so-called ancestral system is simply a nightmare for everyone. Only fools are willing to return to the time of Taizu. They are greedy for a few taels of silver to peel them into grass, and a blank seal case can massacre local officials. The so-called officials are not living a life. Any official who has experienced that period will most likely be scared by Taizu and his elders in their dreams.

Zhu Di also realized this, so he only mentioned the ancestral system, but would never implement the so-called ancestral system. In other words, although there was the Daming Law during the Taizu period, the real way to govern the world was the Dagong. However, Zhu Di naturally threw the Dagong to the garbage dump, but picked up the Daming Law, patted the dust on his head, and used it.

So a ridiculous phenomenon occurred. Emperor Taizu was infinitely elevated. When everyone mentioned Taizu, they could not help but shake their heads and said, "The Holy Ancestors started from the fields and taught the people to farm and fight. They destroyed the Yuanyuan, restored the Chinese clothes and clothes, and ruled for 30 years. They rested with the people and loved the people diligently. They were not the Emperor Gaotang of Han, and the kings in the world were no better than their right.

That being said, everyone never mentions how to implement the ancestral law. To put it bluntly. The scholars and officials are well aware of the principle of taking the essence and removing the chaff. Taizu's good government orders, such as tax reductions and exemptions for scholars, such as some preferential treatment for scholars. As for those chaff, scholars are not allowed to discuss politics. If officials are illegal, they can teach the people to escort them to the capital; and they also peel them into the grass. Naturally, they turn a blind eye. There has been a tradition of self-purification throughout the dynasties. In this regard, the Ming officials have inherited this fine tradition.

Now, the emperor imitated Taizu to adopt his adopted son, and the adopted son was actually a military officer, who was still an infamous person. This made people angry. This can be like this today, and will he still learn from Taizu to peel off the skin and serve as a straw tomorrow?

So for a moment, the various yamen were shocked and the mist was everywhere. It was like the counties in Henan washed away by the flood. Everyone had their faces in bitter melon shapes, and they were all crying when they talked too much.

What is dissatisfactory is that Wenyuan Pavilion and Hanlin Academy do not make any sound. They are vested interests and are attached to the emperor to get the value of today. Therefore, it is natural that they dare not make any sound.

But some people can't understand it, such as those young and strong officials, who are mainly from the staff of each department, and the inspectors of the Censorate. Another part is the old fried dough sticks in each department. The old fried dough sticks have a characteristic, that is, this official has reached its peak, and there is no hope for it anyway. The emperor doesn't like it, and the boss regards it as a thorn in his eyes. His colleagues like such people, there is no threat, and it's easy to instigate them. Such people are often angry and ignore the ministers, and they just slap the table and curse their mother every day, and they don't like anyone else.

, is a famous yamen stir-fighting stick, specializing in doing things that can cause three-foot waves without wind. When the bosses see them, they have to retreat because such a person is an official after all, and if you are cruel to him, you will appear to be too mean and easily arouse criticism. If you reason with him, he will play rogue with you. If you use force to suppress him, he will ask for justice everywhere and complain and destroy your reputation behind your back. Almost all departments and yamen have several such people, so the boss's attitude towards such people is often pinched his nose and saw nothing.

I have to say that the old officials and the Youzis are very strong in combat. Zhu Chang, the teacher's son-in-law of the Ministry of Rites, fired the first shot to clean up Hao Fenglou. The Ministry of Rites has a special position called the teacher's son-in-law. What is the teaching son-in-law? In fact, when a princess gets married, he often has to designate a certain family in advance. This is the future son-in-law. Since he is the son-in-law, he can also be regarded as the emperor's son-in-law. Of course, son-in-law must understand the rules. Where does the rules come from? So the teaching son-in-law came into being. Their responsibilities are very simple. Teach the rules of the son-in-law, what should you do and what should you not do, what etiquette should you perform when facing the princess, and even what steps should you go through when you are in the room, and you must go through someone's approval.

This is a very profound knowledge, but it is also useless. The teacher's son-in-law, a little seventh-rank official, is Zhu Chang and Zhu now over 40 years old. Can you feel at ease when you stay in such a position where you need oil or water, and have no rights?

So he made the first impeachment memorial, with thousands of words, but the central idea was very simple. Your Majesty, I heard that the emperor is the king and father, the father of all the people, and the people of all the world are your sons. The saints often see the people as their own sons. Only the foolish monarchs will have different relatives and regard the people as grass. And now, how can Your Majesty adopt the adopted son? Hao Fenglou is His Majesty's son, not just that. All the people working in the fields and scholars studying hard in the window are His Majesty's children. How can you adopt the adoption? Your Majesty is a saint, and you should not do so. You should immediately take it back and make your life. Otherwise, everyone in the world will doubt themselves and no longer believe in the way of the king and father. Educating the people is like a drop of water and stones. It takes years of hard work, and you also need to strictly discipline yourself and set an example for the people of the world...

The skill of the old man is to be particularly capable of fighting. This memorial took great painstaking efforts, which not only ensured his own safety, but also criticized Hao Fenglou. He claimed that the emperor was a saint, and also came up with the principles of saints. He even brought out the big things of the monarch, minister, father and son in the etiquette. It is not easy.

Such sophistry is the most popular nowadays. While lifting you up, you make you strictly demand yourself, and then quoting the scriptures and bringing out Confucius and Mencius, concentrating their firepower and firing at you, leaving you speechless. As long as you occupy the moral commanding heights, you will be speechless.

When Lord Zhu handed over his memorial, others flocked to it. Obviously, Wenyuan Pavilion seemed to have acquiesced to this matter and did not interfere with it. Wenyuan Pavilion's attitude made the radicals of each tribe realize something, so they simply put on the wall to watch the fun.

The Tongzhengsi was in a hurry and handed the memorials into the palace one by one and sent them to Zhu Di's imperial case.

Zhu Di took the memorial, just looked at it, without making any sound.

It was early in the morning. After reading a few memorials, Zhu Di ordered: "Today, all memorials will be sent to the East Palace. I have an appointment with Hao Fenglou and want to go to Zijin Mountain to tell the prince to deal with it properly."

After he gave the order, he changed into martial uniforms and took several people in regular clothes to leave the palace.

After hearing Zhu Di's instructions, Zheng He did not dare to neglect, so he quickly asked the eunuchs to send them to the East Palace with boxes of memorials.

Crown Prince Zhu Gaochi is listening to Xie Jin's lecture today. Xie Jin is busy with official duties and rarely appears in the East Palace. Although he is known as the Prince's Young Master, he is quite unqualified. Today, he finally has free time and takes time to preach the Book of Songs here.

Upon hearing that Zheng He was coming, Zhu Gaochi ordered: "Please ask Eunuch Zheng to come in and speak."

He was not negligent about Zheng He and Zhu Gaochi.

Zheng He entered the hall and hurriedly saluted the prince and Xie Jin.

Zhu Gaochi smiled and said, "Eunuch Zheng is here, what's going on?"

Zheng He said: "Your Majesty has something to do today, but a lot of memorials have been accumulated on the imperial case. Your Majesty has given you an order to ask Your Highness to approve the memorials. You ask Your Highness to take charge of all the memorials today. I have already ordered someone to bring all the memorials, but I am very busy with your Highness."

Zhu Gaochi smiled and said, "It is natural to share the worries of the king and the father. The word "work" is really shameful. Eunuch Zheng, I know, I will reply to the decree when you go back."

After seeing Zheng He off, Zhu Gaochi's face suddenly became extremely exciting.

This face was full of suspicion, indifference, and even more of anger.

He narrowed his eyes, took a deep breath, put away all the excitement on his face, and finally looked at Xie Jin deeply, and said, "Master Xie, my father is so clever. This little trick of my palace is really worth mentioning. Alas... This trouble finally came back to my palace. Wouldn't it just respond to the words that caused trouble?"

Xie Jin said lightly: "Your Highness means that Your Majesty is suspicious that what happened today is His Highness?"

Zhu Gaochi said lightly: "Although it was not what I did, it was also my accusation and indulgence. Hao Fenglou became his adopted son and called his brother to me. I would not give up. However... I will deal with this lot of trouble first. I will solve the scholars first. I am quite difficult now."

Xie Jin smiled faintly and said, "Actually...why...why is this difficult? Why don't Your Majesty drive away the tiger and swallow the wolf?"

"oh?"

Xie Jin's face was calm, and he put down the book in his hand, saying word by word: "Your Majesty is obviously quite displeased with these impeached ministers. The road has been completed, so how can Your Majesty be willing to take back his life easily? Since that's the case, why don't Your Majesty follow His Majesty's wishes and investigate a group of nonsense ministers? Not only should you investigate and punish them, but you also have to severely punish them. Isn't this just right for Your Majesty's appetite?"

"But..." Zhu Gaochi's face was complicated. Suddenly, he saw Jie Jin's calm eyes and seemed to have thought of something. He put his hand on the desk, was silent for a while, and suddenly smiled, saying, "This... is a bit interesting."
