Chapter 92 I said there were no treacherous officials in the Ming Dynasty
Outside Yuxi Palace.

A scene of the Prime Minister and the Deputy Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty loving each other and supporting each other.

If one does not know, he will probably be moved by this and the ministers will be harmonious.

But only the parties present know how many confrontations are hidden behind these few words and actions.

They are all old foxes who have been in the officialdom for thousands of years, and they will not give in to anyone.

Probably because the Prime Minister and the Deputy Prime Minister each had a memorial to make today, when everyone entered the Yuxi Palace and walked up the steps, they saw that the eunuch Lu Fang, who held the seal of the Imperial Household Department, had been waiting for a long time at the gate of the palace.

Beside him, Huang Jin, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Household Department and the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, stepped forward with a naive look and took over the task of supporting Lord Yan from Xu Jie.

Xu Jie fell behind him.

Huang Jin lowered his head and said, "Lord Yan is in good health, and Assistant Reader Yan is very filial."

Then, Huang Jin continued to whisper without moving his lips.

"Yang Jinshui violated a taboo and was punished to be sent to Changping to guard the imperial mausoleum."

Yan Song's eyelids moved, and he glanced sideways at his eldest grandson who was also supporting him.

Yan Shaoting didn't say anything either, but just glanced at Huang Jin who had a silly smile on his face.

all.

It is still beyond words.

Finally arrived at the palace.

Today the emperor did not keep the cabinet waiting for long, but sat on the throne early.

There were shadows lurking at the palace gate.

Sitting on the throne with his hands open on the armrests, Jiajing looked very energetic, with his eyes sparkling with brilliance.

"The emperor's boat is in the north, and the minister's boat is in the south."

"The mountains are like jade, and the water is as blue as the golden turtle and jade dragonfly."

A long recitation sound came from Jiajing's mouth.

Among the people who were walking into Yuxi Palace, Yan Song and Yuan Wei's faces changed slightly, as if they were reminiscing.

However, Xu Jie and Gao Gong frowned slightly and nodded their heads.

Jiajing continued to chant.

"The minister's boat is in the south, and the imperial boat is in the north."

"The clouds and dragons meet at the right time, and the ruler and his subjects get along well forever."

at last.

Four cabinet ministers, Yan Shaoting and Minister of Revenue Yuan Wei, came before the emperor.

At this time, Yan Shaoting also secretly glanced at the Taoist priest above.

Or maybe it's because of 'family education'.

He was very familiar with the Qingci that the Taoist priest had just recited.

It was not created by anyone before the Tang or Song Dynasty, but was created by Xia Yan, the famous prime minister during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty.

Xia Yan is a figure who cannot be ignored in the early Jiajing period.

He served as Prime Minister four times, retired three times and was dismissed once.

Such ups and downs show his ability.

This song "Imperial Boat Song" was composed and presented to the emperor when he was the Prime Minister.

The dedications are naturally all praises.

Today, Jiajing read out this poem written by the former Prime Minister again, which naturally has a deep meaning.

Yan Shaoting was touched, and today he was probably thinking about the last sentence, 'the ruler and his subjects will always get along well with each other'.

as predicted.

After everyone bowed, Yan Song was given a seat as usual.

Jiajing patted the armrests on both sides with both hands.

"The Zhejiang Provincial Governor's Office and the Military Commissioner's Office reported to the court that Hu Zongxian and Hai Rui had investigated the crimes of Zheng Michang, He Maocai, Shen Yishi, Li Xuan and others and executed them one by one.

The stolen money seized from the family property was innumerable, and was used to purchase food and forge weapons. It has already been handed over to the anti-Japanese army, and now we are looking for a decisive battle with the bandits. "

This involves the southeast, the former members of the Yan Party, and the anti-Japanese war.

Yan Song smiled, then stopped smiling and said, "After this, the administration in the southeast can be called clean and clear. This is the result of your Majesty's decisiveness and the good fortune of our Ming Dynasty.

The people of Zhejiang must be grateful and praise Your Majesty for his wisdom. The anti-Japanese army in Zhejiang was led by Qi Jiguang, who was quite capable in the past and always won victories.

Now, the stolen money from officials is used to pay for military expenses, and the court does not spend a penny or a grain of rice, so the country is at ease.

It is expected that Qi Jiguang will be more courageous, kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds, and wipe out the Japanese bandits in Zhejiang Province in one fell swoop."

Lord Yan's responses in front of the emperor always made Jiajing feel comfortable.

Just like this moment.

First we talk about administration, then the people, and finally the fight against the Japanese pirates.

A lot of flattery from many aspects, angles and without any blind spots.

Jiajing was already smiling: "Okay, okay, Yan Shaoting told me before that I could be like Wenjing and emulate Laojun. Now Zhejiang Province does not need to spend a penny of money and grain from the court, and the Japanese threat can be completely eliminated. It can be said that the world is peaceful without doing anything."

When Gao Gong saw the emperor and his ministers talking to each other, he felt annoyed, but he did not show it today.

He has a bad temper and always speaks his mind.

But he's not a fool.

Now that the Yan family has been making frequent suggestions and contributions in the court, there is no need for him to offend them at this time, which would only make the emperor unhappy.

Say it.

Jiajing then looked at Yan Shaoting again.

"You asked Hai Rui to investigate the case in the southeast, and he recommended a brilliant man to me. This time, we were able to convict Zheng Michang and others. He played an indispensable role, and you also played a role."

Finally, Jiajing looked at Xu Jie again.

Jiajing was very satisfied with this cabinet vice-chairman and never said much.

Jiajing said: "Lord Xu has taught a good student. Zhang Juzheng is in Suzhou. Now the conversion from cotton to mulberry is almost complete. Next year, Suzhou Prefecture of our Ming Dynasty will be able to produce silk continuously and sell it overseas."

Look at the emperor's appearance.

Today seemed like a commendation meeting, with everyone being named and praised one by one.

Xu Jie bowed: "All people in the world are your Majesty's subjects. All officials in the court are your Majesty's talents and disciples. Now that the southeast is stable, it is because of your Majesty's wise judgment."

Yan Shaoting, who was about to speak and agree with holding a commendation meeting today, couldn't help but pause.

Check it out.

Who says only the Yan party can flatter?

Our Lord Xu will not give in even a little!

At this time, Jiajing's eyes were also fixed on Yan Shaoting, who had been silent for a long time.

Yan Shaoting hurriedly clasped his fists and bowed: "The laws of our Ming Dynasty are strict. Zheng Michang and others knew the law but broke it. Even if the net of heaven is vast and wide, nothing can escape it. Regardless of whether Hai Rui is here or not, with Your Majesty in charge of the country, these criminals will have nowhere to escape."

That's it.

Today's commendation ceremony, in which the king and his business partners praised each other, was finally completed.

Jiajing leaned back on the chair.

The Taoist priest narrowed his eyes and looked at the ministers in front of him with a smile on his face: "I just remembered something."

Yan Song cooperated as usual and asked, "Your Majesty, what did you remember?"

Jiajing pointed at Yan Shaoting and smiled, "Then we have to talk about you, my grandson, Lord Yan. At the beginning of the year, you also said the same thing to me in Yuxi Palace.

At that time he said that there were no treacherous ministers in the Ming Dynasty.

Now all matters in the southeast have been settled. But you still remember the state and the country. Yesterday, both the Minister Yan and the Minister Xu submitted memorials to discuss state affairs and share my worries, which pleased me very much.

Now it seems that what this kid said back then was absolutely correct."

Talking and talking.

Jiajing stood up again.

The smile on his face became more obvious.

Jiajing looked at the people in front of him with pride, and his voice became louder and louder.

"My Great Ming Dynasty!"

"They are all loyal subjects!"
