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 read out; the other was for the pedestrian Liu Ming.

The first part was to let the central bank chiefs or secondary chiefs replace the cabinet to decide the matter, and the cabinet was expanded to ten people; the Ministry of Justice added the "Education and Commercial Law Examination Department" and the chief officials were promoted to the fourth rank, and there were also several other official positions such as editors and senators.

The Tijuan Department is responsible for revising the Industrial and Commercial Law, but each law is passed and must be decided by court discussion. The powers also include reviewing cases related to industrial and commercial affairs, property disputes, loans and other wealth-related cases in various places. They are subject to the control of Xue Yan, the Minister of the Ministry 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, promoted him to the fourth-rank Industrial and Commercial Law Examination Division, and presided over the legislation.

Last time, Zhu Gaoxu added the "Ming Dynasty 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 seemed a bit different.

It has been a while since Liu Ming's memorial to "keep the times"; it has not been long, and it has easily aroused the sensitive nerves of 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 "destroying the prince" that was still there 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 from the Jinshi of Ji Chou in Wude, 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 didn't comment.

Xie Jin from the Hanlin Academy immediately stood up and said directly: "Master, Liu Ming is neither qualified nor talented. He is just a person who thinks about the best and flatters. He wrote a memorial and then made a splash, taking the path of pursuing the battle. As soon as the court opened the shortcut to Zhongnan Mountain, all officials above and below followed him. Isn't that a good thing? I hope the emperor will take it back and make 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 withdrawal 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 dared to say it. Even if he didn't say it, it seemed that some officials meant the same.

Anyway, neither Jian Yi nor Xie Jin could resist the imperial edict, and the matters mentioned by the imperial edict were still implemented. Zhu Gaoxu did not say much, but let it go, and then asked the ministers to perform their duties and 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 officials 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. Zhu Gaoxu continued the rules of Taizu and Taizong. The emperor had the power to be arbitrary, and he wanted to be appointed as an official, just a matter of one sentence.

Zhu Gaoxu did not have the energy of Taizu and held all the 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, the Minister of Personnel, did not go to the cabinet today, and sent the Left Minister of Personnel. He was guarding the Ministry of Personnel's Office. When Liu Ming came to receive the appointment letter, official uniforms, seals, family expenses and other prescribed items, 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 done for Liu Ming, so it was 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, and the six Secretaries had only the right to execute everything. Jian Yi had no right to refuse the decisions of the center, and resisting the order was the stupidest way.

This morning, Jian Yi stood up and advised the emperor that the family must have high hopes for him. How could he surrender to the "New Party" that was still dry? What's more, he 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 he ascended 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 once. Taizu and Taizong have done such a thing.

The blood of Huang Zicheng, Tie Xuan, Fang Xiaoru and other tribes has not been completely exhausted yet. 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 "protective" targets of Jinyiwei.

However, Jian Yi didn't have to be afraid. Since the Wude period, the emperor has never let the ministers discuss matters in private, and the activities were 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 and asked someone to send it to the imperial city, saying that he was sick. Of course, Jian Yi's subordinates would continue to shirk Liu Ming's responsibility. They just followed Jian Yi's hint yesterday, and they still had insights into this matter.

...In the morning, Zhu Gaoxu got Jian Yi's report on stating that he had sex. Almost instantly, he understood what was going on.

I just met Jian Yi yesterday. This person was so lively and unsick. 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 resigned and wanted to retire and return home.

Approving resignation is not possible. A large group of famous literati returned to their hometowns, and there were classmates, friends, 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 would think that Zhu Gaoxu's throne was illegal and robbed.

But Zhu Gaoxu could no longer give in at this time. Once he gave in, 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 to the ground and stepped on it twice.

The eunuch Wang Gui, who was on duty in the East Nuan Pavilion, and several palace maids were immediately frightened by Zhu Gaoxu's expression and bent down, as if he wanted to hide.

It is normal to have 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 was so kind to them that I would be able to gain a better position?

After being angry, 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 Gui 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, his thoughts were 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, which was really overthinking; at most they were in order to prevent the so-called "new party" from seizing power.
