Chapter 239 Your Majesty, someone rebelled!(1/2)

Zhu Qiyu's scolding echoed throughout the Fengtian Hall. Fengtian Hall, which means "Fengtian Yiyun", was originally meant to represent the herdsmen of Heaven.

As a result, such a serious place became a forum for the speech of a network of relationships and interests that was so huge that the emperor could not see clearly.

And it’s so majestic!

"May I ask, how many people in this court are dedicated to the Ming Dynasty, and how many people are speaking for the people of the world?"

"Yu Shaobao told me that everything in the world is unselfish and no one is unselfish, except for Your Majesty."

"Xueshi Chen told me that those who talk about the world must follow the principles of the world. The world is not the private world of one surname. The world is not the world of one person, but the world of everyone."

"Liu Ji, the editor of Hanlin Academy, said: Those who serve the world must not be selfish; those who serve the world must not be selfish; those who serve the world must serve the public!"

"You tell me if the monarch does this."

"Then as a minister, he will forget himself for the sake of the monarch; he will forget his home for the sake of the country; he will forget his personal interests for the sake of the public welfare; he will not take it casually when encountering benefits, and will not hide away from disasters, because it is

Where righteousness lies.”

"This is what the old saying turns into a common custom. When you are a minister of others, you forget your own body, your country, your family, and your private interests. You will not only seek benefits but will not do harm, and will only care about righteousness."

When Yu Qian, Chen Xun, and Liu Ji heard their names being called, they hurried out of work, bowed their heads and said, "I am terrified."

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand, signaling the three of them to return to work.

Their reasoning is very reasonable.

Because in the Battle of the Capital, Zhu Qiyu did indeed follow some of what Yu Qian said, and even did more than what Yu Qian said. He personally put on his armor and went into battle to capture the flag.

The monarch sacrifices his own life, his ministers forget their own lives for righteousness, the soldiers do no harm, and the people do not seek benefits. Zhu Qiyu saw the great righteousness.

It's not like he hasn't seen it before.

Shi Heng was stunned. Although he didn't read much, what His Majesty just said made sense!

Isn't that how things should be in the world? Why did he dismount in Qingfengdian and fight to the death?

Your Majesty has already rushed. If he retreats, it will be a small thing to hang his head on the city wall, but it will be a big deal to make people laugh, and he will be in disgrace for thousands of years.

Zhu Qiyu took a deep breath, stood up, and said loudly: "The truths are all good!"

"But what's the use of just me and my male ears?!"

"If it is true that everyone is selfish every day, even in this great hall where God is responsible for his fortune! There are people who are just like this, forgetting the country and taking care of their family. For the sake of their own selfish interests, they don't care about the whole world."

"Where did the population come from? Where did the open fields come from! Where did the trade and travel come from!"

"How can the country be peaceful? How can the world be peaceful? How can the sea and rivers be clear!"

"How come the sun, moon, mountains and rivers will last forever! How come the Ming Dynasty will be forever solid!"

"Wang Fu, you are telling me, where are you coming from?"

Wang Fu never expected that his words of fighting for the benefit of the people would arouse such wrath from heaven. He knelt down on the ground and said in a submissive voice: "Your Majesty, I am sincerely afraid."

"But I think so."

Wang Fu knew that his words would further anger His Majesty, who was in a rage, and even bring disaster to him.

But he paused for a moment and said loudly:

"When merchant ships return to business, they ship to the four seas. All things in the world are like the sea and the rivers. They all return to the Ming Dynasty. Isn't this the way to the prosperity of the country?"

"If we focus on urgent conquests and violent expropriation, the merchant ships will become more and more unlucky, and all things in the world will go out to the four seas and disappear from the Ming Dynasty. This is also the way to the decline of the country."

Zhu Qiyu looked at Wang Fu. He was quite surprised that Wang Fu dared to talk back. Maybe he was right because he had always been like this.

Wang Fu at least ensured that his ministers did not shy away from the axe, but the people he petitioned for were very different from Zhu Qiyu's people.

It's a pity that we took the wrong route.

Hu Xi stood up straight, bowed his head and said, "I have overstepped my bounds."

Your Majesty can reprimand his ministers, but it is the ministers' business to quarrel with them.

"In the first month of the second year of Hongwu's reign, Emperor Taizu summoned Ma Yi, an old minister of the Yuan Dynasty, to inquire about the political successes and failures of the Yuan Dynasty."

"Ma Yi replied: In the Yuan Dynasty, there was a world. We gained it through tolerance, but we also lost it through tolerance."

"Taizu said: "If you gain something with generosity, you will hear it. If you lose it with lenience, you will not hear it."

"In the Yuan Dynasty, the monarchs and ministers indulged in leisurely pleasures and followed them until they perished. Their failure was in verticality. The Yuan Dynasty was not lenient!"

"In general, the way of the sage king is to be broad and controlled, not to abandon it; to be simple and disciplined, not to be easy; if it is given appropriately, there will be no harm."

"Wang Fu, is it possible that your Majesty has been eager to conquer and extort money since he came to the throne?!"

Hu Hui is the one who opens the skylight and speaks openly. His words are really heart-breaking.

Wang Fu said that His Majesty was not lenient enough in his hasty conquests and excessive extortion. Hu Hu asked, but has His Majesty been ungrateful in his administration so far?

Seeing that Wang Fu was silent, Hu Hu asked again: "Wang Fu, let me ask you again, do you mean that Emperor Taizu Gao was wrong? Should he be tolerant, tolerant without restraint, and that is the way of a holy king?"

These words directly killed people.

The Yuan Dynasty collapsed because of indulgence and unruliness. If Wang Fu said a wrong word, he might not be able to get out of the Fengtian Palace door today.

Wang Fu trembled all over and whispered: "I don't dare."

Hu Hui became more and more arrogant. He took a step forward and said loudly: "Then you mean that merchant ships should not pay taxes!"

Wang Fu said tremblingly: "That's right."

"Then it's over."

Hu Xi flicked his sleeves, turned around and said, "Your Majesty, I am arrogant and sincere and have no virtue. However, I think that Your Majesty is not lenient. Being lenient and indulgent without restraint is a disaster for the world."

Hu Hui talked about being immoral all day long.

He Zhang may regret that he impeached Hu Hui for being immoral that day. Wasn't this a fig leaf given to Hu Hui that could not be torn or broken?

No matter what he did, Hu Hui could shout, "I am sincere and immoral," and then act arrogantly and openly.

He has no virtue, what about He Zhang, Wang Fu and others?

Every time he said that I was immoral, he would slap a group of people on the face with a slap to the left and a slap to the right, and he would never do it again.

Zhu Qiyu sat up straight, looked at Wang Fu and said, "I know that your family's business is related to sea trade."

"I hope that I have contributed to your battle in the capital. I will spare your life and resign."

Censor Wang Fu and Hu Ke gave Zhao Rong and Zhao Rong a piece of Qi Li tablet for their contribution in the battle of the capital.

Zhu Jingmen originally set up a Hongmen Banquet outside Desheng Gate and asked Yu Qian, Shi Heng and others to come to see him. Zhu Qiyu sent Wang Fu and Zhao Rong with only one sentence: the country is more important than the king.

This job was very dangerous, so Wang Fu and Zhao Rong took the order and left. After returning to the court, they also worked day and night on duty at the Nine Gates, which could barely be regarded as serving the dragon.

Now that Wang Fu has the clan, relationship network, and interest network behind him, he is not discussing issues at the court meeting from the perspective of the community, but is putting his own interests first. He is not worthy of standing in the Fengtian Palace!

When Zhu Qiyu cut off the title of Supreme Emperor in the Ancestral Temple, he said that the former emperor gave the people of Sheji to orthodoxy, and orthodoxy could not be maintained. The people of Sheji paid Jingtai, and Jingtai could keep it!

Wang Fu sighed, took off his plain gold leather belt, then took off his official hat, and placed his seal and ribbon on the plate brought from the small yellow door.

"The King of Caomin returns and bids farewell to His Majesty."

Wang Fu kowtowed heavily, stood up, arched his body and slowly backed away until he reached the threshold of Fengtian Hall, then turned around and left Fengtian Hall.

Once I leave, I'm afraid we'll never see each other again.

Wang Fu stood outside Fengtian Hall, looked at the three characters "Fengtian Hall", and then looked at the clear sky, and sighed heavily. He had read books all his life and studied for merit and fame for half his life, but he ended up like this.

There are no secrets in the Fengtian Palace of the Ming Dynasty. It will be discussed in court today and spread all over the streets tomorrow.

He was not beaten and deposed, but His Majesty spared his life in recognition of his old merits.

In this duel, he was completely defeated. It would have made him a hundred times, a thousand times more uncomfortable than if His Majesty had chopped him with a knife!

He strives for profit with the people without any disadvantages, but is completely refuted.

When Wang Fu left Fengtian Hall, he frowned and thought about everything in the hall. Could he really be wrong?

Xing'an returned to the platform with Wang Fu's official uniform and seal.

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said: "Let's continue discussing politics."

The discussion about the Maritime Bureau of Mizhou City has started again. There are opponents, but the reasons are nothing more than the view that eunuchs should not be relied on, compete with the people for profit, and emphasize business over the weak.

Zhu Qiyu saw them arguing and suddenly said: "Well, let's do it this way. The Michigan Shipping Department was originally set up privately, so we can just abolish it and burn down the docks, warehouses, houses, and restaurants, and destroy them."

"Your Majesty, you must not do this." Cai Yuji stood up again and said loudly: "Your Majesty, that is the source of food and clothing for more than 100,000 people!"

But a very real problem faced the courtiers.

What should we do with the people who gather near Mizhou and make a living by sea trade?

Not to mention the whole of Shandong, there is only one county in Mizhou with more than 100,000 people. This is a vital matter for thousands of households. If this is not handled well, it will lead to civil unrest and disaster.

Why did when Li Binyan arrived in Jinan, people immediately came with money to give gifts, trying to turn a big deal into a trivial one?

Why did Li Binyan see a Jinan Mansion where people were singing and dancing, and whether they were the officials of the Chief Secretary or the Chief Inspector, they looked like people were giving up money and birds were dying for food?

In fact, in the final analysis, the court is not easy to deal with.

If there is a revolution, both the local government and the imperial court will suffer losses.

Bu Ge, if you investigate and deal with a group of officials, won’t the next group still look like this?

When the abscess is exposed, how to treat it is the big problem.

If you say that this room is too dark and you need to open a window here, no one will allow it.

But if you advocate removing the roof, they will mediate and be willing to open the windows.
