Chapter 78: Benevolent Palace People

The leeks that cannot be cut are the leeks that cannot be beaten to death.

Zhu Youxiao smiled bitterly. If he was ten years younger, with his tiger spirit, he should have sent Zou Yuanbiao to Henan to clean up the vassals of King Fu.

"Printing an order--" Zhu Youxiao narrowed his eyes and said, "Guo Yunhou, Guo Xingzhi formed a private party, and the impeachment memorial was absurd and unfounded. He was dismissed from office and was immediately sent out of Beijing."

It is the responsibility of censors to supervise all officials, but for personal purposes, nonsense has become a bad habit in the officialdom. The so-called rumor and rumors have become the amulets of censors, catching wind and shadowing and wanton attacks.

Zhu Youxiao killed the chicken to scare the monkey, first dismissed these two guys and went home to eat old rice.

Well, learn from Grandpa Wanli, and do not make up for the vacancies of officials, and the government affairs cannot be paralyzed, and they also save money.

How much is the salary of an official? Zhu Youxiao took his fingers but couldn't figure it out, so he couldn't help but roll his eyes. Anyway, one official should be enough to raise ten soldiers, right?

As for Zhu Tongmeng, the military officer, was not the Donglin Party, or even considered to be non-party. The impeachment of Zou Yuanbiao was opposed to his establishment of the Shoushan Academy in the capital.

Moreover, Zhu Tongmeng served four missions during his tenure, which is well-known; he is also known for his diligence in the Ministry of War, so he is a useful talent.

"The draft order: Zhu Tongmeng, the chief minister of the Military Department, was given the title of Minister of War, and was appointed as the Governor Xuan Da, and rectified military affairs."

"The decree is to be transferred to the governor of Henan..."

"The purpose is to conquer three thousand men from Henan to the southwest and be under the command of Zhu Xieyuan, in order to eliminate the She Chongming rebellion as soon as possible."

"Printed order: Sun Chengzong, the right assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, is loyal to the country, has outstanding abilities, is given the title of Minister of War, is temporarily appointed as the Ministry of War, and is given the Grand Secretary of the Dongge..."

Zhu Youxiao flipped through the small notebook and kept dictating it. These decrees were printed and sent to the cabinet, and they were decided through normal procedures, and most of them could be passed.

There is no small matter at all, so we have to send smart and capable people who know military affairs to work, or send people who are optimistic about them for exercise and inspection.

For example, Sun Chuanting had been transferred from the Ministry of Personnel to rectify the military preparations, and followed Zuo Guangdou to Shaanxi, embarking on the road of life related to the Qin army in advance.

As for financial issues, Zhu Youxiao was going to slaughter a fat sheep first, which would greatly alleviate it.

Wang Tigan, the eunuch holding the seal, bowed and waited for the imperial edict to be completed so that he could perform his duties.

After saying a few decrees, Zhu Youxiao looked at Wang Tigan and asked, "Wang Bao, how is the house outside the city repaired? Can the palace people raise enough funds?"

Wang Tigan hurriedly knelt down and replied: "Who will dare not do his best to be the emperor's grace? The two large mansions outside the city will be completed in a few days, and there will be some money left!"

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "That's good. I thought, if it's not enough, I'll take some from the treasury and put it on!"

Wang Tigan kowtowed hard and said gratefully: "The emperor is so kind and great, and I have no choice but to repay you. I dare not let the emperor pay for his death."

"Get up!" Zhu Youxiao said angrily: "Who is a man when she can't move?"

When Wang Tigan heard this, she burst into tears. She was not a man anymore, so she didn't let her cry anymore!

"I've lost my words." Zhu Youxiao waved his hand helplessly and said, "I want to go out of the palace tomorrow, you can make arrangements."

"Yes, yes, I will make arrangements."

Zhu Youxiao reached out and called Wang Tigan, and ordered: "The last time the Jinyiwei was pretty good. The one named Lu Jianxing, please let them follow me!"

Seeing Wang Ti go to do an errand with a fucking fuck, Zhu Youxiao shook his head helplessly.

When it comes to eunuchs, the most likely people think of bad guys, such as Zhao Gao, Lao Ai, Liu Jin, Wei Zhongxian, etc. The more famous eunuchs may only think of Zheng He who went to the West.

In fact, eunuchs are a very tragic type of people, and they are not easy to do. The powerful eunuchs are only a few of them. Most eunuchs have a more depressed life and a more miserable fate.

Especially when the eunuch is old and can’t do anything, he feels even more sad after being arranged to leave the palace.

He has no skill, no support from children, no pension, is looked down upon in society, and is even despised and rejected by relatives. Most eunuchs have miserable old age.

Many people even stayed on the streets, became beggars, and died of starvation.

Therefore, eunuchs are more greedy for money, and there are certain reasons to prepare for old age. For example, adopting a son, you have to rely on him to have some conscience; or donate money to the temple and leave the palace to go to the temple to support him.

As for those who can afford a house and hire servants to serve, there are very few people after all, and they cannot be generalized by any means.

The same is true for palace maids, especially the palace maids of the Ming Dynasty, which were even more miserable.

Even the emperor had to admit that "the palace ladies are good children, and the palace is deep and dark, so it is really pity."

As a modern person, Zhu Youxiao certainly doesn’t like it.

There are still regulations in the Qing Dynasty's palace. If the palace maids are over twenty-eight, they can be sent out of the palace and a severance fee will be paid. Why is the Ming Dynasty not even as good as the Tartars?

Palace maids are lifelong, which is unscientific and inhumane!

Don’t be twenty-eight or twenty-five, we can count on the year.

Those who have worked in the palace for ten years will be sent out. Not only will we pay the money, we will also build a large mansion for you, which is a collective dormitory.

Those who have no relatives to pick them up or cannot find them live here. If you can take care of some textile and handmade work for the palace maids, you can support yourself.

As for eunuchs, they still have a place to live and eat when they are old. They are now built "retirement houses" in the suburbs of Beijing. There is also a royal farm next to them, which is also handed over to them to grow some vegetables and raise poultry, which is also an elderly activity.

Of course, this is not in vain. Just like if you don’t pay social security and you don’t have money to retire, you can get a reason. But it’s not much. You pay two taels of silver every year and you can enjoy this treatment after paying for ten years.

In short, Zhu Youxiao introduced these grace policies and stipulated that no palace servants would be accepted for five years in the palace.

Not to mention five years, the number of palace servants now is enough if you don’t collect them for ten years!

In history, the Qing Dynasty once showed that there were 100,000 eunuchs and nine thousand palace maids in the dynasty, and they all starved to death every day, and the emperor didn't care.

This is nonsense, slander, and nonsense! Zhu Youxiao can slap his chest as a testimony, and there are definitely not that many.

However, there are also quite a lot! Every year, the price of powder is 200,000 to 300,000 yuan for the palace, and the amount of firewood and charcoal is even more expensive, which is unreasonable.

Well, Zhu Youxiao knew some of the tricks and had already started to secretly send someone to investigate, preparing to get rid of a group of rats in the palace.

Now, can the cuts of palace servants be reduced for the time being? If you can't reduce them, you will launch a wave of anti-corruption and anti-corruption in the palace, and you still don't believe it.

How can you clean the world if you don’t clean a room? If you can’t manage your own family well, what country will you manage?
