Chapter 140                                                             

When the noise in the capital is extremely noisy.

In a courtyard of the Ministry of Rites, soldiers guarded the Beijing camp around them. Even a fly could not fly out. It seemed like a VIP, but it was a cage.

The one in it is not someone else, it is Boyan Timur.

The route chosen by Acitemur is good.

When Boyan Timuer arrived in the northwest, generals at all levels did not dare to neglect, so they reported to Yu Qian.

Yu Qian naturally couldn't do the task of blocking news and killing envoys.

Not to mention that the ministers have no diplomatic power, no matter whether they support or oppose peace talks, they cannot hide it from Beijing. Secondly, in Yu Qian's opinion, the war can be slowed down to this point.

You should know that in the late Yongle era, Emperor Taizong only wanted to use the vast sea as the boundary with the Tatars, but Emperor Taizong didn't know who to talk to, so he just continued to fight.

Now the court has done what Emperor Taizong expected.

Yu Qian did not comment on the war and peace, but he also felt that the battle with Wassai should be slow.

People who maintain the same idea have a considerable majority of civil servants.

And this opinion was transmitted layer by layer to Chen Xun.

As the chief minister, Chen Xun naturally has two sides. Facing the officials below, he represents the monarchy, but facing the emperor, he also represents the ministers.

As a bridge of communication between the two.

Whether Chen Xun is willing or not, he must bear such a responsibility.

Therefore, Chen Xun came to meet Zhu Qizhen by taking advantage of the matter of the envoy of the Wasang.

In fact, the envoy of the Wasan Sect has been in the capital for a while, but the cabinet has repeatedly reported it. Zhu Qizhen is dragging it down.

When Chen Xun was asking for a meeting, Zhu Qizhen was teaching the prince.

The prince was in charge of the country for several months, and it was more of a tablet. All major events were handed over to the business owners, and the cabinet dealt with small matters. However, even so, the prince had the intention of studying hard when he came into contact with major national affairs for the first time.

A lot of problems have been accumulated.

I'm asking Zhu Qizhen at this moment.

The biggest problem is disaster relief.

The prince asked Zhu Qizhen and said, "The child has carefully reviewed the disaster relief memorials since this year. The food for the reduction and delivery of relief this year is about 1.5 million stones. The child thinks that there are no evil things in this? Moreover, according to previous documents, it seems that there are disaster relief measures every year. Is this natural disaster really impossible to avoid?"

Zhu Qizhen said, "I'm asking, how can there be no evil in disaster relief? There have always been many evils in disaster relief. Those who lie about disasters, conceal the disasters, and deduct disaster relief food. There are all kinds of tricks."

When Zhu Qizhen said this, he couldn't help but show a hint of sneer.

The bureaucrats have been the same from ancient times to the present, and naturally they have been killed by fire and suicide.

Zhu Qizhen was sure that some of the disaster relief food he sent out every year was definitely swallowed up.

"However, people are the most important. Some things should not be investigated in depth, but they must be investigated. After every disaster relief, I will ask the Dongchang Jinyiwei to check it out." Zhu Qizhen said.

The prince said: "But the Jinyiwei of the East Factory is reliable?"

Zhu Qizhen nodded and said, "My son is deeply loved by me, so he naturally cannot trust him. He has to compare the three documents, including local officials, censors, Dongchang, Jinyiwei, and four sides. The difference is too much, so there is naturally a problem. I will select people from Jinyiwei and then check them. If they are all the same, the problem will be even greater. Then select honest officials from the court, such as Geng Jiuchou, Wang Yu and others, and ask them to check again."

The prince was a little confused and asked, "There are big problems like the documents in all directions?"

Zhu Qizhen did not answer and said, "This is your homework today, think about it carefully."

Zhu Qizhen had never thought of this problem before. Because of the different directions of statistical surveys, there were many errors in the news in various aspects.

Anyway, Zhu Qizhen has never seen it, and the things that have been investigated for several years are exactly the same.

Therefore, if everything reported in all aspects is exactly the same, it can only mean that the local area is already a solid piece, and even the Jinyiwei of the East Factory was bribed by the local officials.

Therefore, we must send important officials to a comprehensive and comprehensive purge.

Zhu Qizhen continued: "As for whether natural disasters can be avoided, I just say that man will conquer nature. I have invested a lot of manpower and material resources in Hebei, the Three Lakes and Five Rivers Project. Although Hebei has many droughts, Hebei is at least a common year, and Hebei's wealth is the best in the north."

"This is how man conquers nature. However, any natural disaster is three parts natural disaster and seven parts man-made disaster. This man-made disaster may not be a disaster for people, but people have not done what they should do. As long as they practice water conservancy diligently and follow the heavens, one day, even if there is a plague of drought, flood and locusts, for the Ming Dynasty, it will be just a breeze blowing on the face."

Zhu Qizhen suddenly thought of later generations. He suddenly felt like he wanted to go back, because later generations had already done this. Many people's first reaction was to shoot Douyin when facing typhoons, rains and droughts, but they didn't know that if they had gone through hundreds of years ago, this heavy rain and a typhoon could determine the life and death of many people.

The prince couldn't help but say in longingly: "Father, can you really do it?"

Zhu Qizhen said: "Yugong just moved mountains. What the father could not do, you do, what you could not do, your son would do, and his descendants would be in endless. One day he could do it."

The prince said, "The boy understands."

Fan Hong then said, "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister has arrived."

Zhu Qizhen said, "He should come too. Let him come in." Then he asked the prince to go and listen and invited Chen Xun in.

After Chen Xun came in, he saluted Zhu Qizhen, and then saluted the prince again.

Most court officials are happy to see the prince's success in political affairs.

This is certainly the praise of orthodoxy by many civil officials, and it is also the ancestral family law of the Ming Dynasty.

The ancestral family law of the Ming Dynasty was the most generous to the prince. The power of the prince's deputy monarch was confirmed at the level of the ancestral family law. Whether it was Zhu Biao who assisted Emperor Taizu in taking charge of the world or when Emperor Renzong was the crown prince, he was in charge of the common affairs of the world.

It has already shown that the outstanding political status of the Prince of Ming Dynasty.

Chen Xunxian told Zhu Qizhen the news about the envoy of the Wasan, saying, "The envoy of the Wasan, who has arrived more than one, can I tell you what to do about it?"

Zhu Qizhen said: "If two countries fight military forces, if they do not kill the envoys, I cannot break the rules. Let him come from wherever he comes from."

Chen Xun immediately said: "Your Majesty defeated Wasan, and Yesan has died. Now Mobei is owned by the court. Wasan has fled westward and no longer has any threat to the court. Although Your Majesty's country is big, if you forget to fight, you will be in danger, and if you are wary, you will die. Please think twice."

Chen Xun's reaction to Zhu Qizhen was actually expected.

Chen Xun has been the chief minister for several years, although he often only acts under the order. However, over time, he is very clear about the emperor's thoughts and some routines of doing things.

What Zhu Qizhen refused to do is mostly contrary to the opinions of all officials.

In fact, Chen Xun was willing to drag it, but now he can't drag it on.

Zhu Qizhen said, "Mr. Chen, you have forgotten some things. I have not forgotten them yet. In the Taimiao, there is my self-criticism. I will face my ancestors without words."

The obstacles that Zhu Qizhen intended to set up at the beginning were now moved out.

Chen Xun was also prepared and said, "Since Your Majesty ascended the throne, he has been betrayed birds and beasts, let alone the people. Whenever there is a natural disaster, Your Majesty will ask, can the people get food? Then eat, ask how to get water, and then drink. His love for the people is no different from the ancient sages."

"But since the 14th year of Zhengtong, the thorns were slapped, and no more than tens of thousands of soldiers were killed in battle. The border soldiers were suffering from transportation, and it was difficult for the people of Hebei to recruit them."

"Your Majesty loves the people of the world, why not think about their mere hearts and pity the sufferings of the people, temporarily stop the military affairs and rest with the people."

Chen Xun's flattery made Zhu Qizhen blush.

However, he also knew that what Chen Xun said might not be true.

Yes, every grain of sand in the era is an unbearable weight for a family, and war will never kill anyone.

In Yanran's great victory, no less than 20,000 people died of battle and injuries. Behind this are 20,000 families, most of which are from the North.

What Chen Xun said is definitely not untrue.
