Emperor Wanli, who was sitting on the white jade steps in his arms, rubbed his face, took off one of his boots and threw them away in a distance.

The emperor loved reading very much. There were many books such as scriptures, Buddhist scriptures, novels, medical books, picture books, etc. that were scattered around him that eunuchs bought from outside the palace with money. However, at this moment, no book in the world could calm him down.

Although he was sure to win whether he went to court or sent Qi Jiguang, Fang Fengshi and Wu Dui left the palace, he was afraid in his heart. : :

This is actually the first time in his life that a young emperor was afraid of something.

It’s not that he was not afraid, but in the past he was afraid of Zhang Juzheng.

But that's because of someone, and nothing about what this person does... The Prime Minister just burped, and the fear brought to the emperor was the same as his scolding.

But this time Wanli was really scared because he was too eager to win.

This victory is different from any previous victory.

Because of human physiological structure, the eyes have problems. They can only see the front. Even if they want to look around, they have to use their necks. They will never see behind them.

Only whoever threatens can see whom.

Because of its wealth, the development of the four oceans is far less shocking than that of Europe.

Two million taels of silver a year are more wealth than any royal family before entering the New World, but the same is not the case in China.

Even if people are crazy about it, the degree of madness is different.

But the threat from the north is real, from Ma Fang to Emperor Wanli, this generation empathizes with the invasion of the Northern Barbarians. This is why in the eyes of Emperor Wanli, who knows the importance of the people, winning this battle and reclaiming Wulianghai back to the empire is an unparalleled achievement.

"Oh, it's too difficult to govern the world."

The emperor scratched his head and threw out his other boot in boredom.

The white jade steps he sat down had been swept by the eunuch Wang An with a whisk. Even if he used white socks to dip the ground, it would not be too dirty. At this time, the eunuchs and guards knew that the emperor was in a bad mood and did not dare to go forward. Only Wang An walked down the steps silently and placed his two boots at Wanli's hand in case he threw them out again.

Wanli did not look up and asked a question that was incompatible with what he thought and thought, saying, "Does the Ministry of Revenue know the amount of household property of the people in the world?"

How much property does the people in the world have?

"I don't know what family property, wealth, land, houses, and animals are asking about?" Wang An thought for a while and said, "The court has not counted it, but if your Majesty wants to know, I can continue to give it a command, and it can be roughly calculated within three months."

They all pay taxes, and they are recorded in Wanli Accountant. These things only take time and can be calculated.

For Wang An, he didn't know why the emperor felt that it was too difficult to govern the world, because... the emperor did not really govern the world. Even though there were more and more "nothing" in the court, it was just nothing.

Build a few roads and set up some official primary schools, move your mouth and allocate some money, which is not considered governance, and the money spent is even more difficult for the emperor.

The emperor's participation in politics is not even as good as his role in military affairs. At least he has personally managed to achieve the real achievements of the Four Guards.

But he didn't know that what Emperor Wanli sighed about was that it was because he had not governed the world, or that he could not govern the world.

Over the past few years, especially when Zhang Juzheng's size, the emperor reformed the number of court attendances at a young age, and reduced the number of court attendances per month to nine times. The court formed a set of strict procedures for raising questions based on the discussions of ministers and court votes, and the emperor's decision to make a decision on the ranks of the ranks of the emperor, and the six departments sealed the rebuttals to check whether it was not suitable, and finally delivered it to the six ministries for execution.

In this program, the emperor is dispensable... As the emperor, who should have the power to make decisions, gradually realized a fact: he felt that everything Zhang Juzheng said was right and would be red.

Even if the young man’s rebellious mentality comes, he will have no chance to not criticize him, because he will always be persuaded by Zhang Juzheng.

This made him unable to tell what difference was the real person, and the seal that looked like, and the imperial pen that was specially made of red marks?

It’s nothing more than picking up the seal and the imperial pen with your hands, and it’s easier to save trouble. It only needs to say a few words and it’s completely automatic.

Yes, he knew that what Zhang Juzheng said was right, but this feeling gradually annoyed him.

Even his unique approach to allocating funds and issuing orders outside the formal procedures was slowly back on track. The intention of building primary schools in the two capitals and 13 provinces was ultimately not issued, but was proposed by the cabinet instructed the great master of academic affairs. After the formal procedures, the Ministry of Revenue was implemented. The emperor only allocated some money from the internal treasury after the Ministry of Revenue allocated some money symbolically after the Ministry of Revenue.

Moreover, this method of doing things is not good in the decision to truly govern the country. Liuke can refute his will with a smile, and he can't say that those people... Seventh-rank officials are so fierce!

Without Zhang Juzheng's approval, even the emperor could not exile the Taoist official in anger for thousands of miles to support Asian construction.

He is the emperor, but he has no ability to control the government.

There is not even the right to not listen or watch.

After he expressed to Zhang Juzheng for the third time that the cabinet could directly hand the ticket to the Lijian Supervisor, Zhang Juzheng scolded him.

That was a rare furious act that the chief minister of the empire had.

It seems that in Zhang Juzheng's consciousness, the emperor must not ignore the votes, because this will cause the imperial power to fall apart, and will also allow the Silijian to take control of the power, which will eventually lead to the imperial power being undermined.

Governing without doing anything is very different from doing nothing.

But for the emperor...hasn't he been undermined all the time? How could he be worried about being undermined?

Their cognitive difference is that Emperor Wanli saw the present, and Zhang Ju was concerned about his departure from the court.

The emperor thought it was now, but he dared not say it or could not say it; and the cabinet chief minister believed that it was the beginning of the student's rule of the world after he was not here. After that, there will be no one in the world who has unparalleled power like him.

If the court's decision-making procedures are a set of rules.

The contradiction is that Zhang Juzheng wanted the emperor to use the rules to strengthen the imperial power, but put himself outside the rules.

In fact, this man-made contradiction is the reason why Emperor Wanli nodded happily when he heard the cabinet that the time for military service to the north was coming. He wanted prestige. He urgently needed to exchange war for prestige and try his best to break free from the shackles tied to his body little by little.

From Chen Mu, Wanli learned how to guide public opinion.

Now, the young emperor plans to use public opinion to break through the shackles, and this battle to regain Wulianghai is the first step to gaining public opinion.

"Rough calculation?"

Wanli shook his head and said, "I want to make an actuary and let the world investigate. I will use it in the future. Go to the telegram room to ask Liang Menglong and where the soldiers of General Qi have gone."
