Without discussing with any ministers, Zhu Gaoxu ordered the Hanlin Academy to write two imperial edicts, one of which was sent to the Ministry of Justice, the Central Bank of the Ming Dynasty, and the cabinet for reading; the other was to the pedestrian Liu Ming.
The first part was to let the central bank's chief or secondary chief enter the cabinet to decide on the matter, and the cabinet was expanded to ten people; the Ministry of Justice was added to the Ministry of Justice, and the chief was promoted to the fourth rank, and there were also several official positions such as editor and senator.
The Tijuan Department is responsible for revising the Industrial and Commercial Act, but each Act is passed and must be decided by the court.
The powers also include reviewing wealth-related cases such as industrial and commercial, property disputes, loans, etc. in various places.
He was controlled by Xue Yan, the Minister of Justice and the two ministers.
The second part was to commend Liu Ming for his contributions to Japan, transfer him to the Ministry of Justice, and promoted him to the fourth-rank Industrial and Commercial Law Division, and presided over the legislation.
Last time, Zhu Gaoxu added the Ming Central Bank and appointed Song Li as the chief, which also made a decision on the spot and did not discuss it with anyone.But this time, the situation seems a little different.
It has been a while since Liu Ming's memorial to keep pace with the times; it has not been long, and it can easily arouse the sensitive nerves of the ministers in the court.
Xia Yuanji, Jian Yi, Lu Zhen, Xie Jin and other civil officials showed resistance to this matter that day.
As for the old case of the deposed prince two days ago, people suddenly left it out of their minds.
The next day when the Imperial Gate was listening to the government, Jian Yi submitted a memorial: Liu Ming, a disciple of the Jinshi in Wude, was born in the third grade of Ji Chou, and has only been more than two years since then, and may not be able to hold a fourth-rank position. The emperor thinks three times.
Zhu Gaoxu did not comment.
Xie Jin from the Hanlin Academy immediately stood up and said directly: Master, Liu Ming is neither qualified nor has any outstanding talents.It was just a person who thought about the superiors and flattered people, and wrote a memorial book, and then he rose to the top and followed the path of pursuing the battle.As soon as the court opened the shortcut to Zhongnan Mountain, all officials above and below followed suit. Isn’t that a good thing?I hope the emperor will take back his life.
Suddenly, many people cast admiring eyes at Xie Jin, hoping to give him a thumbs up. The situation is very rare.
Zhu Gaoxu said: The imperial edict has been passed on to all officials, and withdrawing it will damage the majesty of the court.
He said it lightly, but he was already angry.After a little patient, Zhu Gaoxu thought again: Xie Jin just dares to say it. Even if he doesn't say it, it seems that some officials mean the same.
Anyway, neither Jian Yi nor Xie Jin could resist the order, and the matters mentioned in the order must be implemented.Zhu Gaoxu didn't say much, but let it go, and asked the ministers to perform their duties, stood up and left Fengtian Gate.
In the middle and late periods of some dynasties, the emperor's personnel rights over officials were no longer complete; he could kill and remove officials, but he could not promote officials based on the imperial edict alone; the imperial edict could even be driven back to the imperial edict.
However, the situation in the early Ming Dynasty was different, and Zhu Gaoxu continued the rules of Taizu and Taizong. The emperor has the power to be arbitrary, and it is just a matter of one word.
Zhu Gaoxu did not have the energy of Taizu and held all his power in his own hands, but he knew very well that he could not easily let go of the three great powers, personnel, military power, and financial power.
So he was too lazy to pay attention to Xie Jin and others. Through this incident, he could remind officials: the emperor has absolute human rights.
...Jian Yi, Minister of Personnel, did not go to the cabinet today, and sent the Left Minister of Personnel to go there.
He stayed in the office of the Ministry of Personnel. When Liu Ming came to receive the appointment certificate, official uniform, seal, family fee and other prescribed things, Jian Yi instructed his subordinates to find reasons to delay and shirk responsibility, and asked Liu Ming to come again tomorrow.
The efficiency of each yamen is not high at all. The Ministry of Personnel did not say that it would not be handled by Liu Ming. It is normal to delay for three or two days.
But this matter obviously cannot be delayed forever.
Because the Secretariat of the Secretariat during the Hongwu period had been abolished, the six ministers and theoretically only had the right to execute everything.
Jian Yi had no right to refuse to implement the decisions of the center, and resisting the order was the stupidest way.
This morning, Jian Yi stood up and advised the emperor that all the dormitories must have high expectations for him. How could he easily surrender to the new party that had not dried up?
What's more, I let go at this time, and it will be very troublesome to deal with Liu Ming and others' new parties in the future.
Of course, the conventional method is actually to threaten the emperor by resigning. If a large number of officials resign, the effect will be very good.
However, Jian Yi was still considering whether the emperor today would take this trick?
Since ascending the throne, he has acted very gentle and can obey the advice of his ministers, but Jian Yi will never be confused by appearance... Today, he is essentially the same emperor as his father Zhu Di. Through war, he has a large number of martial brothers who fight side by side, and firmly hold the military power of the world. Such an emperor will not lose the throne even if he kills thousands of officials at one time.
Taizu and Taizong have done such things.
The blood of the entire clan, Huang Zicheng, Tie Xuan, Fang Xiaoru and others, is still not completely exhausted. How can people easily forget the terrifying policies of the Ming Dynasty court?
Jian Yi sat in the study and pondered. At one moment, he wanted to discuss with Xia Yuanji.
There are Jinyiwei on duty at the entrance of the lobby of the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Revenue. Even if you meet privately after the duty, you will definitely not escape the eyes and ears of Jinyiwei. Jian Yi and other officials of the ministry are the key protection targets of Jinyiwei.
But Jian Yi doesn't have to be afraid.
Since the Wude Year, the emperor has never refused to let the ministers discuss matters in private, and the activities are relatively casual.
Jian Yi gave up the idea of finding Xia Yuanji, but felt that it would not have much effect, but instead gave people the topic of forming cliques.
After Jian Yi thought about it, the next morning, he wrote a memorial to ask someone to send it to the imperial city, saying that he was sick.
Of course, Jian Yi's subordinates will continue to shirk Liu Ming's responsibility and follow Jian Yi's hint yesterday. They still have insight into this.
...In the morning, Zhu Gaoxu got Jian Yi's report on the ill.Almost in a moment, he understood what was going on.
I just met Jian Yi yesterday. This man was so lively and had no illness. How could he fall ill like this?
Moreover, a scene soon emerged in Zhu Gaoxu's mind: Jian Yi would resign, and then a large group of officials would resign and return home.
Approval of resignation is not possible.
A large group of famous literati returned home and had classmates, friends and children of various multiples. The court would not collapse, but people in the world would soon think that the current emperor was unpopular.
The most terrifying thing is that countless people will think that Zhu Gaoxu’s throne is illegal and robbed.
But Zhu Gaoxu could no longer give in at this time. If he gave in once, those people would use the same trick again next time. Can he, the emperor, still speak in a good manner?
He suddenly felt that it might be a mistake to issue an imperial edict to promote Liu Ming directly.
Because there have been almost no threats since he ascended the throne, Zhu Gaoxu was furious for a moment and threw the memorial book directly to the ground, and stepped on it twice.
The eunuch Wang Gui and several palace maids who were on duty in the East Nuan Pavilion were immediately frightened by Zhu Gaoxu's expression and bent down, as if they wanted to hide.
It is normal for different political views. What Zhu Gaoxu was angry about was that his imperial edict would not even be able to promote a fourth-rank official?!Could it be that I am so kind to them that I have to be more and more frustrated?
After venting his anger, almost a moment later, Zhu Gaoxu calmed down a lot.
He thought to himself: Liu Ming’s appointment will definitely be implemented, but it is hard to say whether Liu Ming’s future affairs can be carried out smoothly.
Zhu Gaoxu picked up the memoir and slapped it on the edge of the table twice.
At this time, Wang Guicai bowed and said, "Don't calm down."
Zhu Gaoxu stood up, paced back and forth in the not-so-spacious partition, and placed his hands behind his back.
In anger, the thoughts are completely different.
He calmed down a little and changed his mind: Jian Yi and others should not want to go against the emperor, and the officials of this dynasty wanted to erode the imperial power, and they really thought too much; at most they were to guard against the so-called new party's seizure of power.
As for the moment, Zhu Gaoxu quickly came up with a solution: Yang Ji has been arrested, and Yang Shiqi is the deposed prince's confidant. Maybe he can use this matter to scare the ministers who have experienced several dynasties?
The first part was to let the central bank's chief or secondary chief enter the cabinet to decide on the matter, and the cabinet was expanded to ten people; the Ministry of Justice was added to the Ministry of Justice, and the chief was promoted to the fourth rank, and there were also several official positions such as editor and senator.
