Zhu Youjian sat seriously on the Golden Palace and began his debut in handling the government with confidence.

But then I found that this national event was far from as simple as I thought.

The Ministry of War first reported a memorial from Shaanxi Governor Hu Tingyan, saying that the Shaanxi Military Sub-district had been short of wages for five or six years and had owed more than 300,000 taels of silver. All the troops began to sell clothes, arrows, and their wives were sold. Recently, they even began to openly clamor.

The implication is that if the money is not given, the army will mutiny.

Subsequently, the Ministry of War reported a memorial from the eunuch of the military supervisor Liu Yingkun, saying that Jimen had been short of salary for five months.

Then the Ministry of Revenue asked the cashier to use red seals for official documents to eliminate the disadvantages.

Later, the Ministry of Rites reported to the Huguang inspector Wen Gaomo's memorial and asked the emperor to go to Xianling to worship.

Finally, Huang Liji, the chief assistant of the cabinet, reported to Shandong Governor Li Jingbai, a memorial, saying that since June, heavy rains have continued in most parts of Shandong, floods and disasters have occurred in more than 30 prefectures and counties under its jurisdiction, and fields have been destroyed, and casualties have been uncounted.

Zhu Youjian was a little overwhelmed after hearing this.

He understood the two memorials from the Ministry of War, and summed up two words: "Take money."

Finally, he understood Huang Liji's report. It was raining heavily in Shandong and floods were needed, and disaster relief was needed. To sum it up, it was still two words, "want money."

But what the hell is it that the cashier’s official documents used by red seals in the Ministry of Revenue? But it doesn’t seem very important, so let’s put it aside.

The one reported by the Ministry of Rites to go to Xianling for sacrifices was also a dry hair. I am very busy now, and it is neither Qingming nor Ghost Festival at this moment, so I don’t want to visit the grave.

Zhu Youjian felt dizzy for a moment, but fortunately, the old man in the agency still had his skills, so he should leave it to those who are capable to use it when encountering problems.

Who is capable? Wei Zhongxian should have good abilities, otherwise Zhu Youxiao would not trust him. It is probably because Eunuch Wei helped him deal with these things before.

But Zhu Youjian didn't dare to use Wei Zhongxian anymore, but he didn't understand the others. He thought that the four cabinet ministers should be okay, and they should be able to deal with these things. It's time to put a burden on them.

"Shandong's floods are the lives of thousands of people. We should discuss with the cabinet and the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Industry to come up with the disaster relief regulations as soon as possible and submit them to me in the afternoon."

"The military pay in Shaanxi and Jimen should not be underestimated. We should discuss the cabinet with the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War to take out a plan to raise money and food as soon as possible and appease the soldiers. We will submit it to me tomorrow."

"The cabinet can write about sacrifices and red seals, and then submit them to me for a review."

Zhu Youjian cut off the matter in a few ways and pushed the matter to the cabinet and the corresponding departments, and then saw a strange scene.

The four cabinet assistants bowed tremblingly to receive the order, and the other court officials looked at this scene incredible ways.

After many years, the cabinet votes were proposed and the Chief Secretary for Literature approved the rewards. As a result, Zhu Youjian changed it in a few words on the first day he came to power.

The cabinet bill was planned and the emperor read it directly.

Seeing the incredible expressions on the court officials, Zhu Youjian was a little confused.

Isn’t normal working procedures like this? Let’s take a plan and provide it to the leaders to make decisions, and finally the decision makers make the decision.

Leave professional matters to professional personnel, and the leaders only take responsibility for decisions, so the work efficiency is quite high.

Moreover, there were collective discussions between the cabinet assistants before, so there was not much chance of making mistakes like this.

In addition, decision makers reserve the power to make the final decision, and their power will not be lost.

This system is very good and has withstood the test of history. The work flow of modern large enterprises is like this.

Decision makers don’t have to do everything themselves, and the work pressure is not that great. There will be no situation where laymen guide experts, and specific personnel will feel more relaxed.

At least no decision makers pretend to understand and run to command blindly.

But what Zhu Youjian didn't know was that this good work process could only be achieved when the Ming Dynasty emperor had a higher emotional intelligence and political skills.

For example, the ancestor of the otaku, Emperor Jiajing, did not attend court for twenty years and was determined to fight monsters and cultivate immortals, but he retained the decision-making power for major events. He ordered the cabinet to scramble and even firmly grasped the Ming Dynasty.

There is also the second-generation Otaku Emperor Wanli, who has not been to court for more than 20 years, but he still has three major battles and has won all of them. Although it finally caused constant party struggles in the court, his power was not lost.

Of course, like Zhu Yuanzhang, the ancestor of model workers, and Comrade Zhu Di, the second generation of model workers, they would not worry about losing power at all, because the cabinet was just a decoration for him, and at best it was a secretariat.

But other emperors of the Ming Dynasty were completely unable to do so. They were either forced to go desperately by the powerful officials of the cabinet, but had no choice but to use the eunuchs to fight against each other, or they completely surrendered to the powerful officials of the cabinet, and became a benevolent monarch who ruled with a literati and a wise man.

Zhu Youxiao, the brother of Zhu Youxiao, is a good example. He is not talented enough and can only use eunuchs to suppress the civil servant group.

I guess he also wanted to deal with the eunuchs slowly in the future, but he was helpless and gave his younger brother Zhu Youjian a short life.

But Zhu Youjian did this in history, and even uprooted the eunuch group, making the civil servant group unprecedentedly powerful.

Later, Zhu Youjian realized this problem and relied on imperial power to suppress the civil servant group. In the past 17 years, he changed fifty cabinet chief ministers.

His suspicious and conceited personality made him no longer willing to let power be lost and his ability was not strong, so he did a lot of things that laymen guided experts, and often carried out various magical micro-work.

In addition, he was too fond of his feathers, never took the blame, and was more strict with his subordinates. Later, there was a situation where no emperor could be used and no court officials dared to take responsibility.

In the end, he ignored the opportunity to make a comeback by holding half of the southern country and suffocate to death in the Forbidden City.

Of course, Zhu Youjian, who traveled through time, has been reading books and newspapers in the agency before, and has had a lot of experience in fighting against various characters. He will definitely not have such mentally retarded operations again.

Even if he could not stop the invasion of the northern nomadic peoples in the end, he would probably go to Nanjing and Hangzhou to jump around for a few more years, and then slowly follow his plan.

Zhu Youjian, who was sitting in the hall, was not sure how miserable the civil servant group had been suppressed by eunuchs in recent years.

In order to protect the officials and lives, he was willing to build a temple for Eunuch Wei, and even rushed to be a son and grandson for Eunuch Wei.

Some people can't even get their grandsons, so they can only be grandsons for Eunuch Wei's ten children.

Of course, these were helpless actions due to the power of eunuchs. The civil servant group still looked down on eunuchs from the bottom of their hearts, so as soon as Zhu Youjian came to power, the ministers of the cabinet began to take the initiative to move closer to him.

Since there is the opportunity to be a minister now, who is willing to be a grandson again?

Even if you are a grandson, you have to be a grandson for the emperor. In this way, you can still gain the reputation of a loyal minister and be a grandson for the eunuch. You can only get the title of a flatterer and look down upon by others.

So the court officials were so happy to see Zhu Youjian bypassing the eunuchs’ base camp, the eunuchs’ group, and directly talked with the civil servants.

If the censor hadn't been watching the misconduct in front of the palace, the civil servants would have wanted to sing a song, and the sky in the Ganqing Palace would be blue.
