The first thousand and seventy-fifth chapters can be as bright as summer flowers(1/2)
The night falls and the bright moon rises.
Daming Palace, Zichen Study Room.
In addition to the grand dynasty meeting at the beginning of the month and the end of the month, the political core of the entire Qin Empire was in this small Shangshu Palace.
The palace lanterns are like stars in the sky, scattered in every corner of Zichen's study room.
Emperor Longzheng stood in front of the window of the inner hall of the Shangsen Study with his hands in his arms, his eyes deep and he didn't know what he was looking at.
Prince Zhongyi Ying Xiang, after he finished the last memorial on the table, he pinched his eyebrows.
Even with his cultivation level, he felt tired to deal with political affairs in an empire.
Looking at the person standing in front of the window, he felt a little admiration.
Although his fourth brother is also good at martial arts, he is not very good at it. However, he handles more government affairs than him and is even more important.
However, he persisted.
"Brother Thirteenth has finished his work?"
Emperor Longzheng asked as if he heard the movement behind him.
Ying Xiang stood up and smiled and said, "I'll give it to the cabinet tomorrow to handle the matter. To develop the Western Regions, there will be a lot of things to recruit. There is also a lot of pressure in the local area, so I have to fight with them."
When Emperor Longzheng heard this, he snorted and said, "They all of them are impatient to send refugees to the Western Regions. If you want to give more oxen and grain, you will know that you will complain. If you don't give them a chance to breathe, let the cabinet strictly order them to complete it!"
Ying Xiang's expression changed slightly. He wanted to persuade him, but stopped. Emperor Longzheng is no longer the one he used to be.
I am afraid that even if Mr. Tung is resurrected, he may not be able to persuade him...
Ying Xiang said: "What the emperor said is that after Zhang Hengchen issued strict orders to the governors of all parties, the effect was much better."
When Emperor Longzheng heard this, he looked at himself and said, "Zhang Tingyu acts decisively, never drags on the mud, and is clean and neat, and can accomplish great things."
Over the past year, he has solved many difficulties for the court and me!
Have special merits in the country!
If it were not for the ancestral system and the title of no one without military achievements, it would not be an exaggeration for me to give him a single uncle."
Sorry tone.
Ying Xiang smiled and said, "With this kind of saints, Zhang Hengchen doesn't need any title anymore. Now he is ranked second in the cabinet. Zhang Boxing has been retiring several times and is not sure, but he has entrusted all the major matters to Zhang Hengchen. He is no different from the chief assistant.
At only 40 years old, he has achieved this position. It is no exaggeration to say that he is powerful in the world.
The Emperor will not let him down.”
When Emperor Long Zheng heard this, he looked at Ying Xiang with a little glance and said, "Where did Zhang Tingyu offend the Thirteenth Brother?"
Ying Xiang laughed and said, "Where... Zhang Hengchen is steady and has a very disciplined behavior. How could he offend me? My brother is not suing him for suing him and giving him eye drops.
In my opinion, it is a good thing for officials like Zhang Hengchen to be able to dominate the court and the country.
He had no ambitions, was loyal to the emperor and the Qin Dynasty, and had no obstacles to greater power.
Back then, how could Li Guangdi have less power than Zhang Hengchen?
What's more, he doesn't have military power yet..."
When Emperor Longzheng heard this, he nodded, nodded, and said, "Zhang Aiqing is a sincere person, worthy of reuse.
but……"
Emperor Longzheng's brow suddenly frowned, his face gradually became gloomy, a trace of darkness flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Have you heard the news that the Jia family is in the capital, and even the business in Jiangnan has begun to shrink..."
Ying Xiang nodded and said, "I heard some news. Although the supply of glass in the city has not decreased yet, the Jiangnan area has suddenly dropped by 60%, as if it will continue to decrease.
In addition, most of the other businesses of the Jia family have begun to shrink.
The industries originally built in various parts of Jiangnan have begun to be stopped."
"What does he want to do?"
Emperor Longzheng's face was gloomy and his voice was slightly cold.
Ying Xiang shook his head and said, "I think I'm afraid it's not him?"
"He's afraid?"
Emperor Long Zheng sneered and said loudly: "He's afraid of nothing! This bastard is deliberately trying to make me ugly!
He wanted others to see how I treated him and forced him!
Yes, he is still my great hero!”
The last sentence is quite a bit gritting.
Ying Xuan said with some concern: "Your Majesty, it's not the time to touch him..."
Emperor Long Zheng smiled angrily, turned to look at Ying Xiang, and said inexplicably: "Even the Thirteenth Brother thinks this way? I have told you so much that you are going to touch Jia Huan?"
Ying Xiang twitched the corner of his mouth and smiled and said, "It was my brother who guessed it."
Emperor Longzheng stopped laughing and said coldly: "This is the disgusting thing about this bastard. Even the Thirteenth Brother guessed this way, let alone others?"
Ying Xiang frowned and said, "What the hell is he trying to do? My brother also read the file presented by the Black Bingtai. Jia Huan seemed to have no intention of being ill. He spent all day with his sisters at home, living a drunken life and dreaming, and never contacting the outside world. He had never seen Niu Jizong and the others..."
Emperor Longzheng said in a deep voice: "What do he want to do? He just wants to disgust me!
This bastard never suffered a loss. I was imprisoned and went to the prison, so he gave me such a move.
He just wanted to disgust me, but it made the military have a lot of opinions about me..." His voice turned cold.
Ying Xiang advised: "Emperor, if the lower emperor is stable today, the Western Regions are restored, and Eros will have civil strife again. There are no internal and external troubles, and the military... is no longer so important. The emperor does not have to care too much...
Jia Huan restrained his family's property, but it was because he knew about awe.
Knowing respect is much better than not knowing that the world is high and bold.
With the emperor's protection, he can always be protected from wealth and honor.
After a long time, even if he had some tricks and thoughts, he would have disbanded.
After all, he is just a child.”
When Emperor Long Zheng heard this, he looked at Ying Xiang with a smile and said, "When the bastard comes back, it's not easy for you to deliver things to the Jia family again, right?"
When Jia Huan was in the Western Regions, he took advantage of the opportunity of Ying Gu, the prince of the Jing Palace, to send gifts to the Jia Palace, and would help Ying Xiang bring a copy.
Now that Jia Huan has returned, there has been such a big disturbance again, Ying Gu dares not come to the house easily, so Ying Xiang naturally has no chance.
However, the profound meaning of Emperor Long Zheng’s words is to tease Ying Xiang for helping Jia Huan speak.
Good intentions are bad intentions, and Ying Xiang can't grasp them for the time being...
However, before Ying Xiang answered, Emperor Longzheng skipped this level and said seriously: "Qin Liang returned triumphantly, and I will personally welcome him and set up the Temple of Heaven to worship the sky. This matter is extremely important and there is no omission. After this matter, the court will be completely stable. By then, no matter who wants to make small moves in the dark, it will be useless.
Thirteenth brother, you and Zhang Tingyu prepare for this matter together.”
Ying Xiang bowed and replied, "Although it was not Taishan Fengshan, the emperor's great achievements were no less than that of Qin Emperor and Han Wu.
The Temple of Heaven is planned to be built three miles west of Shenjing City. At that time, all the royal family members, relatives and nobles, civil and military ministers, and students from the Imperial Academy will be on the list.
In addition, Zhang Hengchen also invited Kong Jizong, the head of the Kong family in Qufu, Meng Yan, the head of the Meng family in the Asia-Saint Meng family, and the four elders of Tongcheng..."
"oh?!"
Emperor Longzheng did not react when he heard the royal family and the relatives of Wu Xun. When he heard the descendants of Confucius and Sheng Meng, his expression changed slightly. When he heard the four elders of Tongcheng, his expression changed completely, and he became quite surprised. He said, "Have Zhang Aiqing even the four elders of Tongcheng invited him out of the mountain?"
Ying Xiang smiled and said, "Today, Shilin regards the four elders of Tongcheng as the contemporary Wenzong. The Tongcheng School is also one of the few major sects in the Shilin. Zhang Hengchen is from the Tongcheng School and is one of the four elders of Tongcheng. It is expected that he can invite the four elders."
Ying Xiang said it lightly, but Emperor Longzheng was extremely excited. He waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Thirteenth brother is not the case. The reason why the four elders in Tongcheng can hold on to the ox of the scholars is not just that they have done a good job in morality, but more importantly, they are clear-minded and all of them are great virtues.
This is not a casual statement. I have asked someone to go to Tongcheng to see them. They are indeed quite ethical and wise, and are not people who seek fame and reputation.
When the Supreme Emperor was there, he wanted to send someone to invite them to the palace to talk, but the people sent always return in vain.
But I didn’t expect that now they can actually come out of the mountain!”
Looking at Emperor Longzheng, who was so excited that he was almost uncontrollable, Ying Xiang sighed softly in his heart.
Shilin was once controlled by the King Zhongshun for twenty years. Even after Emperor Longzheng came to power, civil officials and him were still difficult to match.
This situation is definitely not something Emperor Longzheng himself wants to see.
Now, although we have promoted the old ministers of Qiandi and replaced the civil servants.
But even Emperor Longzheng himself did not believe that these civil officials and ministers were united with him.
Including those ministers who were promoted by him or even promoted to cabinet ministers.
It is because, for decades, his reputation in the Shilin can be described as unbearable...
However, Emperor Longzheng himself knew clearly that civil servants always had to govern the world.
So, he was actually anxious inside and wanted to change this situation.
But there has been no good opportunity.
However, if the army that recaptured the Western Regions returns triumphantly in a few days, when Emperor Longzheng took the opportunity to sacrifice to heaven, the four elders of Tongcheng appeared and stood up for him.
With the great and significant virtues of the four elders of Tongcheng, the situation of Emperor Longzheng can undergo a huge change, and even reverse the unfavorable situation in one fell swoop.
To be continued...
