Chapter 69: The Prime Minister and the Big Baptist

After listening to Yang Xiong's narration quietly, Yun Zhao said, "Didn't kill anyone?"

Yang Xiong did not dare to look at Yun Zhao's eagle-falcon with sharp eyes, lowered his head and said, "I will give it to the village chief for discipline."

"What do you say in the spy department?"

"Ignorous villagers were bewitched by rumors."

Yun Zhao looked at Pei Zhong, and Pei Zhong immediately opened a document and said, "According to investigation, the slutists have different identities, but their behaviors are consistent. The reason why these villagers believe it is undoubtedly that they are completely fascinated by a ten-two silver ingot.

After the verdict was made, Taoist You Fang knelt down and kowtowed, and offered ten taels of snowflakes and silver, saying that he was congratulating the emperor on his arrival. It was because of these ten taels of ingots that were originally extremely ordinary people who were popular.

Only by accepting concubines and establishing a country.”

Yang Xiong's face turned pale and bowed, "I'm going to go back to Xiangyang now and handle this matter myself."

Yun Zhao looked at Yushan outside the window and said, "It's not your fault. The people under my command are so stupid and so easily bewitched. In fact, it's all my fault, and it's also God's fault.

God refused to give me a group of smart people, but gave me all the clever ones mixed in the idiot group.

Since I am their emperor, then I must accept the reality that my people are stupid.

During the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, countless idiots were independent. Everyone thought that Emperor Wu would use severe punishments, but Emperor Wu laughed it off.

Such stupid things happened during the reign of Emperor Taizong of Tang, and Emperor Taizong also laughed it off.

During the reign of Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, there were more such things. Everyone thought that these people would be skinned by Taizu's violent temperament. As a result, Taizu also laughed out.

I know that the reason why you sentenced these people lightly was because of the actions of these old emperors.

So, you did nothing wrong.”

Yang Xiong sighed and said, "Who did it? Zhang Bingzhong? Li Hongji, or the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty?"

Yun Zhao smiled and said, "It's not Zhang Bingzhong. This guy took over Nanchang City and is now preparing to build his Great Chu State, so it won't be him. Li Hongji also took over Xuzhou. Now, he is also ready to be the emperor, named Dashun, so it won't be him."

Yang Xiong said: "In this way, the emperor is the most likely?"

Yun Zhao shook his head and said, "It's not the emperor either. The emperor's strength has been extremely weak. His will cannot leave the capital."

Yang Xiong frowned and said, "My country in Lantian is at its peak, who else dares to stroke our tiger beards?"

Yun Zhao smiled and said, "You have to ask if you have a little money. He is all about the domestic affairs."

Yang Xiong said in a little embarrassed manner: "It ruined your reputation."

Yun Zhao smiled and said, "Will the horses care about the few flies climbing on their tails when they are running wildly? Don't worry about this. Go to the conference preparation office to report. There are too many things you need to do."

Yang Xiong stood up and said, "Let's go now, it's just..."

"Don't worry about those things, you have more money."

Yun Zhao watched Qian Shaoshao leave, and Han Lingshan came over and said, "Why don't you tell Yang Xiong that the people who took the action were the Southeast scholars?"

Yun Zhao said: "Yang Xiong's family has a deep friendship with the Southeast scholars. Don't leave the embarrassing things to him. This is a embarrassing person. It is better for everyone to live a relaxed life."

Han Lingshan said: "If you want to create 72 beacons and 36 smoke dust, it's a pity that they can think of. Hou Fangyu seems to have only such a little ability. Do you want to kill him?"

Yun Zhao shook his head and said, "Hou Fangyu is not having a good life in the southeast now. His family background is not as good as Chen Zhenhui and Fang Yizhi. He was almost ruined by these two people.

Nowadays, we risk our lives to lose our reputation, with the purpose of reshaping our reputation among the Southeast scholars. I am just a little surprised. Ruan Dayue and Ma Shiying are also considered high-minded people, so why do we also participate in this matter?”

Han Lingshan laughed and said, "This is a way for the scholars of the Ming Dynasty to become officials. They are worried that they will not be valued by us when they come rashly. First of all, they must show the value of their existence.

When we treat them as opponents at a certain level and then come to like each other, we will give corresponding treatment according to the previous level of importance we attached to him.

I bet that as long as Your Majesty reveals the intention of recruiting, these two men will immediately help Your Majesty to eliminate these vicious matters and will handle them very well.

Of course, Hou Fangyu will definitely be ruined and ruined."

Yun Zhao shook his head and said, "I won't want such people. If they sit in a high position, they will be very unfair to you simple people. Wouldn't it just a loss of reputation?

It doesn’t matter, Yun Zhao, I, came from a bandit family, was also a cruel and bloodthirsty demon king. I had thousands of harems and lustful people. I didn’t have a good reputation. No matter how bad I was, I could be ruined there.”

Han Lingshan said again: "Mr. Zhu Shunshui from Yuyao, Zhejiang has arrived in Chang'an. Will Your Majesty allow him to enter Yushan City?"

This name is a bit familiar. Yun Zhao tried hard to recall it and found that this person was a real Ming Dynasty person. After the failure of the anti-Qing Dynasty, he was unwilling to serve the Manchus and finally fled far away to Japan. He was considered to be the few righteous people among the Ming Dynasty Confucian scholars.

He nodded and said, "Invite Mr. Shunshui to stay in Yushan Academy. You can listen during the meeting."

Han Lingshan said again: "Since Mr. Shunshui has obtained His Majesty's permission, then, has Qian Qianyi, who has written such a masterpiece "Liuhou Lu" treated the same way?"

When Han Lingshan heard Qian Qianyi talk about Han Lingshan, Yun Zhao looked at Han Lingshan and said, "What is this person's moral character?"

Han Lingshan said: "I have always been honest and famous for the Ming Dynasty. My articles are radiant. I am the master of the Southeast scholars. This time I came here, and I came openly. Before I came, I also wrote a memorial to the emperor, saying that I wanted to see the reality of my blue sky, and see your majesty, your heart and demeanor, and whether there is a person's image as a lord."

Yun Zhao sighed and said, "I have talked about justice in my life, and the two surnames serve the king. There is no basis for advancing and retreating, so how can the article be bright."

Han Lingshan said strangely: "They don't plan to surrender to us, they just came to help Chongzhen explore our foundation. I thought this person should be allowed to come in and see if I, Lantian, have the courage to inherit the Ming Dynasty."

Yun Zhao patted Han Lingshan's hand and said, "Do you like "Liuhou Lu" very much?"

Han Lingshan said: "The "Liuhou Lun" he wrote when he was fifteen years old and talked about magical and weird. It is a rare masterpiece. I have also read his "Collection of Beginners" and "Collection of Youxue" and "Collection of Youxue" which are also meaningful. Huang Zongxi said that his articles can occupy the literary world for fifty years, and Gu Yanwu also said that he was a generation of "Wenzong".

Not only I have read it, but his articles are the focus of the subjects for the cultivation selection of our Yushan Academy.

Why, Your Majesty doesn’t like this person?”

Yun Zhao was silent... speechless... If he didn't know that this person had had two pasts: "The water was too cold" and "Itchy scalp", Yun Zhao would definitely welcome these people to Yushan. Even if he went out to greet him in person, it would not be considered a price loss.

What made Yun Zhao speechless was that Qian Qianyi was shining at this time, and he could not criticize him for what he had not done yet.

Yun Zhao is sometimes very depressed. Knowing what will happen in the future is a great help to him, but knowing too many things sometimes makes him troubled.

For example, if Yun Zhao didn't know his past, he would definitely value Hong Chengchou at this time. Unfortunately, because he knew about future generations, Hong Chengchou would definitely have no chance of being the Prime Minister in this life.

You should know that in the political system that Yun Zhao is about to implement, the position of the Prime Minister is extremely transcendent. He, the emperor, has to be prepared to accept it for a lifetime. Only when Yun Zhao dies will they be qualified to select the next emperor.

As for the position of Prime Minister, Yun Zhao is planning to really take the path of national selection.

One election in five years, and a maximum of two terms will be re-elected, and it will be replaced no matter what.

It is because of this that the power of the prime minister is very heavy, and general state affairs basically rely on the prime minister to complete. That is to say, except for military power and legislation, the power of judgment is not in the hands of the prime minister, the rest of the power basically belongs to the prime minister.

The Prime Minister needs to be selected by the National Assembly, and Yun Zhao is appointed. Once the appointment is successful, if the crime of treason is not committed, the Prime Minister will basically not be replaced and will be safe for five years.

Yun Zhao has been thinking about this for a long time. The biggest reason why the emperor was criticized was that he monopolized power.

If the emperor had the final say in everything, then all the mistakes made by the government were the emperor's mistakes. Just like Chongzhen at this time, he was responsible for the sins of the whole world alone.

Not only the people think so, but even the officials under his command also think so.

It would be pitiful for the emperor to do this.

Yun Zhao didn't plan to do this.

His visit to the Ming Dynasty was a great opportunity given by God. He finally became emperor. If he spent all his energy on the review of documents, it would be a little miserable.

The position of Prime Minister itself is used to do things. Even if something goes wrong, it is still the responsibility of Prime Minister. Everyone just needs to endure him for five years and then change to a good one.

As an emperor, he can not only win the building but also become the last hope of the people. Why not do it?

Only when the general's power is firmly held in his hands can the status of soldiers be raised and the soldiers will not take the initiative to interfere in politics. This is too important.

It was not surprising that Han Lingshan saw Yun Zhao fall into deep thought. Yun Zhao was like this. Sometimes when he said this, he would be stunned. Such things have happened many times.

He just didn't expect that Yun Zhao was measuring in his heart among the important officials of Lantian - who could be pulled out and called him as a big animal.

I don’t know how long I thought about it, Pei Zhong had changed his tea three times. Then he woke up from his thoughts and saw Han Lingshan looking through his documents, he said dissatisfiedly: “Why haven’t you left yet?”

Han Lingshan said: "I just told you that Qian Qianyi was going to enter Yushan City, so you should give me a clear statement."

Yun Zhao smiled and said, "They are so proud of the world that they are naturally invited in with courtesy and courtesy."

Han Lingshan said: "Are you going to meet him?"

Pei Zhong corrected Han Lingshan and said, "You should call him Your Majesty."

Han Lingshan smiled awkwardly and said, "Let me get used to it for a few days."
