Chapter 108 B Scroll

  In a seemingly ordinary room on the west side of the Qianbu Corridor north of the front door, the slightly dim light diffuses in through the panes, and a few paper notes on the desk are casually placed on it.

  Lu Song picked it up again, and looked at the unmarked document on the top, with a complex expression and a bit of indescribable relief.

I don't know if this is something that can barely make the emperor feel better among the countless unpleasant and frustrating news. Lu Song doesn't know if this is just a casual sentence of the emperor, or if he really cares about this person, or Where did this person go?

   All in all, there is no big mistake in being careful.

   Tapped it lightly with his fingers, and finally put it down, "Sort it out and present it to His Majesty."

  The gloomy face symbolizes that Emperor Yonglong's mood has never been really comfortable since he took the throne.

  It was only at this time that he realized that this great throne is really not something that just anyone can sit on.

Originally, I thought how relaxed and comfortable my father is in power. If you want to go to Jiangnan, you can go to Jiangnan, if you want to go hunting, you can go hunting, if you want to escape the summer heat, you can go to escape the summer heat, and you can even entrust the government affairs to a few first and second assistants for a month or two. Ask, how chic and comfortable?

  But how did it become so unbearable when it got into my hands?

  He will never admit that this is his lack of virtue and ability, but he has indeed caught up with the bad timing.

  In fact, he also knows that many problems are left by his father, but since he wants to sit in this big position, how can he not even take this responsibility?

  Countless people are still staring at their own buttocks to take the throne. Emperor Yonglong has never let down his vigilance in this regard.

  Reading dozens of memorials in one go, the more I read, the more irritable I became, the more depressed I became, I couldn't help but throw the memorials under the imperial case in a fit of anger, and all the servants beside me held their breath.

  Emperor Yonglong glanced at the attendants and companions standing outside the door and in every corner on the opposite side. How many of them are truly loyal to him, and how many are people placed by his father?

Subconsciously, he didn't want to think about this heartbreaking problem. He never thought about replacing these people all at once. If the emperor really asked to replace all these old people, there would only be one result. Thinking of Zhang Shen shuddered.

  Emperor Yonglong knew very well that only by firmly securing this position and not giving other people who coveted this position a chance, can he slowly regain the disadvantage from his father. Before that, everything needs patience.

  The question is, will God give me so much time?

  Patience does not mean doing nothing, doing nothing, Xiao Gui Cao Sui, may not be the best strategy, and his dark eyes once again cast outside the palace.

  One of the companions quietly came over to pick it up again, arranged them one by one and put them back on the case, while the other gently pushed another stack of small paper slips with obviously different regulations to the front of the case.

  He leaned back on the chair, and picked up a folded paper sign with a special imprint on the leather surface.

Lu Song is still reliable, and maybe the news he brought is just as frustrating, but Zhang Shen knows that he has to read it, and dare not even face this reality, so it is best not to sit in this position, and give it up early People want to be safe.

  After reading a few copies, Emperor Yonglong's mood gradually calmed down.

  The news presented was not pleasant, but he accepted it, which was expected.

   "Huh?" His eyes flicked lightly, and he opened the folded content.

  Long Jinwei’s secret reports are all like this. The title is clear at a glance, and then the details are below. If you are interested, you will open it, otherwise only one title is enough to understand the general idea.

  After reading the content, Emperor Yonglong put it down and leaned his back on the back of the imperial chair.

  It's a bit interesting, I didn't expect this little guy to be a little loyal to the emperor, and even to say such a thing.

  But to Emperor Yonglong, this is not important, the key is the attitude of the two mountain masters of Qingtan Academy to this point of view.

If this rhetoric were placed in those academies in the south of the Yangtze River, I'm afraid it would have been criticized a long time ago. Those unscrupulous literati only know how to show off their mouths, but they can't come up with any countermeasures. The degree of disgust is no less than those who covet their own throne.

  Of course, this kind of disgust can only be hidden in the heart forever, and the superiors can never act according to their own feelings. This is what my father has always warned himself.

Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen Yonglong naturally understood, these two were scholars who grew up rapidly during the period when the father was in power, but they were not particularly valued by the father, and they had constant quarrels with those elders. Naturally, the final outcome is to dismiss from office.

  However, this did not affect the reputation of these two people among scholars, and even the reputation of these two people is still on the rise.

  Emperor Yonglong was concerned about the attitudes of these two people.

   Noncommittal, this is an attitude.

  A very subtle attitude.

  Emperor Yonglong of course knew how much uproar the establishment of the tax and mining supervisor had caused in the entire court. It can be said that the censor’s bullets were already full of imperial cases, but he didn’t even want to look at them.

   Undo is simple, how to solve the gap?

  The Household Department is not incompetent, but the hole left is too large. Emperor Yonglong is still very clear about this. According to the Household Department, it can only be filled slowly.

  But can the lack of payment in Nine Sides be solved slowly? Maybe one day the army will mutiny, and the Tatars or Jurchens will invade from the side, and I am afraid that it will be myself who is pushed on the stove again.

  What can I do?

  Donating and losing is a double-edged sword. It can even be said that this is the real way to quench thirst by drinking poison. Emperor Yonglong certainly knows it, but if you don’t take this path, you will have nowhere to go.

  The expression on his face was constantly changing, and only the attendants beside Emperor Yonglong could see the tangled pain on the emperor's expression.

   After a while, Emperor Yonglong slowly regained his strength, only to realize that the paper stick in his hand had been deformed.

  Looking fixedly on the paper sign, the word Feng Keng seemed to be still beating, which stimulated Emperor Yonglong's mind.

  In the end he still put down the paper sign, he was really too young, but the attitudes of Qi Yongtai and Guan Yingzhen seemed to be more intriguing, maybe we can observe again.

  ******

  Feng Ziying naturally didn't know that the little disturbance in this class had already been spread by interested people, and even went to Datian to listen.

  This kind of nightly exposition and debate for several consecutive days also made him feel more and more different in this era.

The mood and mentality of the scholars to "share the world with the scholar-bureaucrats" seems to have completely followed the former Song Dynasty. To a large extent, it followed the regulations of the previous Ming Dynasty, and conflicts in many places were inevitable.

   This is a complex Zhou Dynasty that is neither Ming nor Song.

Scholars and civil servants also had complex attitudes towards imperial power. They respected but tried their best to limit it. The saying that the emperor and the scholar-bureaucrats shared the world was deeply baked into their thinking. In Feng Ziying's view, this seemed to be a kind of imperial power. But governing power should be the mentality of scholar-bureaucrats, but the question is, is this possible?

  This kind of game wrestling has never stopped since the pre-Ming Dynasty, and it will never stop in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

As an ownership right, the imperial power always takes the initiative. It is every emperor’s duty to suppress and weaken the prime minister’s power. However, excessive weakening and suppression will bring backlash. Every emperor knows this very well in his heart, so he maintains a relatively weak and obedient cabinet The six volumes are the greatest wish of every emperor in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

  But civil servants who have studied hard for ten years and once turned into a dragon, how can they easily give up their lifelong pursuit?

  You have conflicts of dissent, I have unity, you have division and disintegration, and I have internal and external control.

This kind of ethos is inevitably brought to the academy. Fortunately, from a unified point of view, this kind of ethos is not strong, but Feng Ziying believes that once these students pass the exam and become officials, they will inevitably be punished by the academy. This stage is often the most important in terms of the influence of what you see and hear.

   Don’t say anything, let Lao Rui recommend it, and spread it in the circle of friends to increase its popularity.
