Chapter Ninety-Five Opening the Sea Seven

Zhu Qizhen's heart suddenly changed. He immediately understood what the Empress Dowager said that day.

Zhu Qizhen immediately thought that the Empress Dowager had buried a trap for him. But then he realized that the Empress Dowager had taken advantage of the situation.

Even without this incident, Zhu Qizhen would definitely have stumbled on other matters.

This is because he is too naive.

The emperor is the emperor, and power is power.

Taking it for granted means that the emperor has supreme power. This is simply childish.

This only touches the interests of civil servants, but there is such a big disturbance. If he really wants to rectify the army, do you really think that the various guards will not rebel?

Only now did he understand the other meaning of the Empress Dowager giving up all non-urgent matters and resting with the people.

Bureaucrats hate change the most. Rather than resting with the people, the Empress Dowager is better off resting with the officials. If both parties are well, the years will naturally be peaceful.

But I want to change the existing political situation.

Even the emperor had to face the opposition of most bureaucrats. But it was never the Zhu family of the Ming Dynasty that really ruled the two capitals and thirteen provinces, but the bureaucrats from top to bottom of the Ming Dynasty.

Rather than sharing the world with the scholar-bureaucrats, it is better to say that we share the world with the bureaucrats.

This may not be the official's warning to the little emperor.

Zhu Qizhen said: "Sir, how should we deal with the situation now?"

Yang Rong said: "For the affairs of the outer court, your majesty only needs to order an end to Western affairs, punish Wang Zhen, and show kindness to all officials. This matter can be comforted by me."

Zhu Qizhen said: "Wang Zhen doesn't need to leave the palace?"

Yang Rong may not have wanted Wang Zhen to leave the palace, but Zhu Qizhen's implication was that he knew very well that it was impossible for Wang Zhen to leave the palace. Yang Rong would not do impossible things.

Yang Rong said: "The outer court will naturally not interfere in palace affairs. Your Majesty only needs to punish Wang Zhen."

Zhu Qizhen said: "What about opening the sea?"

Yang Rong said: "Open the sea."

Zhu Qizhen immediately told the story. After hearing this, Yang Rong immediately said: "Your Majesty, why don't you discuss with me? Yu Qian has been in the country for a long time and is capable, but he has neglected the affairs of the capital."

Quite a few.”

"Foreign officials are different from Beijing officials."

Zhu Qizhen naturally understood that for foreign officials, they had too many ways to make money, and they were even reasonable and legal. Naturally, they were not as concerned as the officials in the capital who were so concerned about the slight increase or decrease in salary.

Yu Qian also doesn't understand many of the things Wang Zhen has done.

Even if Zhu Qizhen knew that Wang Zhen's buttocks were full of shit, Zhu Qizhen would not use Wang Zhen to handle this matter.

Zhu Qizhen said: "I know I was wrong. But now, can the opening of the sea be carried out?"

Zhu Qizhen actually knew that Yang Rong was more capable than Qian.

Because Yang Rong is now at the peak of his life. His energy, wisdom, condition, and even status are all at his peak. But Yu Qian is still far behind Yang Rong.

Although Yu Qian has a great reputation in history, if we really talk about political wisdom, I really don’t know who is better between Yu Qian at his peak and Yang Rong today.

Because Yu Shaobao's reputation will last forever, not because of his superb political wisdom, but because of his integrity and loyalty.

Yang Rong pondered for a moment and said: "This is the way it is now, and it can no longer be done. If you want to continue, there is only one way."

Zhu Qizhen said: "Sir, please speak."

Yang Rong said: "Please give me your edict by the Empress Dowager."

Zhu Qizhen felt bitter after hearing this.

He was unwilling to do so.

Because when he went to see the Queen Mother Yi Zhi at this moment, he was admitting defeat to the Queen Mother and admitting his mistakes.

It was as if the Empress Dowager knew that Zhu Qizhen had always been unconvinced.

Yes, Zhu Qizhen was not convinced.

He felt that if he had the knowledge of future generations and a perspective beyond history, he would definitely be able to bring Ming Dynasty to its peak.

I tried doing some things on a small scale before, and everything went very smoothly.

Only now did I realize that the reason why he succeeded was because he had the Empress Dowager behind him and he was also the emperor. It was not his so-called vision and ability.

Zhu Qizhen said: "I understand."

After Zhu Qizhen sent Yang Rong away, baskets of memorials from the cabinet came in.

Because Wang Zhen was now guilty, Zhu Qizhen asked him to stay aside while he sorted out the memorials himself.

Just after reading a few letters, Zhu Qizhen read them impatiently.

It's very simple. Eight out of ten letters here are for impeaching Wang Zhen.

Zhu Qizhen said to the young eunuch beside him: "Separate these memorials. As long as they are about impeaching Wang Daban, put them on the right side, and if they are not, put them on the left side."

A group of young eunuchs immediately took action.

But for a moment, there were only dozens of memorials on the table, and they were not about Wang Zhen.

Under the table, there were several baskets filled with memorials to impeach Wang Zhen.

Zhu Qizhen looked at these documents.

I took a long breath and made up my mind. There is no shame in admitting your mistake to your grandma.

Zhu Qizhen stood up and said, "Take all these memorials and arrange them in Cining Palace."

When they arrived at Cining Palace, Zhu Qizhen knelt on the ground as soon as he entered the door, saluted the Empress Dowager, and said, "My grandson knows that he was wrong."

The Empress Dowager glanced at several baskets of memorials to impeach Wang Zhen. With a wave of her hand, all the maids around her went down. The Empress Dowager said, "What's wrong?"

Zhu Qizhen said: "I am so ambitious and arrogant."

The Empress Dowager smiled softly, opened an impeachment document, read it carefully, and said: "It's as if it didn't say anything."

"Think again."

Zhu Qizhen took a deep breath, and suddenly felt blessed in his heart, and said: "My grandson's fault is that he can no longer distinguish between ourselves and the enemy."

"Oh." The Empress Dowager closed the memorial in her hand, threw it into the basket, and said, "This does have some flavor, continue."

Zhu Qizhen said: "Whenever you do something, there are advantages and disadvantages. The reason for the advantages is the reason why the disadvantages exist. The world is bustling, and all benefits are coming, and the world is bustling, and no benefits are going away."

"As long as it's about interests, nothing is blank."

The Empress Dowager smiled slightly and said: "Han Feizi is reading well, continue."

Zhu Qizhen said: "Before my grandson wanted to open the sea, he knew that there would be some opposition in the court, but he didn't know who would object. He just thought broadly, but he didn't know the benefits."

"I don't know my enemy, but my enemy knows me."

The Empress Dowager shook her head and said: "I don't just know you, the palace is like a sieve. Every move you make in the palace is known to the people below. They may not know what specific words someone said to you, but

Watching his actions is better than listening to his words."

"People's words can deceive, but their actions cannot."

"Ruan An has been up to something lately, do you really think you can hide it from the outer court?"

"Of course they want to give our little Majesty a little reminder."

When Zhu Qizhen heard this, his heart trembled and he said, "My dear, is the cabinet also involved in this matter?"

The Empress Dowager stepped forward and smiled, pulled Zhu Qizhen up, gently patted the soil on Zhu Qizhen's knees, and said: "No, you guys in the cabinet are still aware of the general situation. Naturally, you won't end up using such childish methods.

.”

"Just not having an attitude is also an attitude."

Zhu Qizhen immediately understood that the so-called acquiescence of the Empress Dowager had different interpretations by different people, and the cabinet obviously also meant to follow the Empress Dowager. However, among the hundreds of officials below, there were different interpretations.

Maybe some people don't understand it and just rely on the righteousness in their chests.

So it was Li Shimian who took the lead.

Li Shimian may not be ignorant of some of the tricks of the people behind him. But he can't get rid of the sand in his eyes. He only wants to help the government, even if he is used by others, he doesn't care.

After all, everything Wang Zhen did was definitely not fake.

Zhu Qizhen said: "My grandson knows he was wrong."

The Queen Mother said: "Do you know who your enemy is now?"

Zhu Qizhen opened his mouth to speak, but was stuck in his throat.

Yes, who is the enemy?

Although it seemed to be aggressive, in fact, none of the big shots in the DPRK were dismissed, or they were dismissed without identifying themselves. Li Shimian seemed to be the leader, but in fact he was just pushed up.

Zhu Qizhen couldn't find a named court official as his enemy for a while? He looked like everyone, but he didn't look like anyone?
