Chapter 147 Ban Eunuch
After the enthronement in the morning, an edict was sent to the cabinet in the afternoon, asking Fang Congzhe to use his seal to make it clear to the world. The content of this edict is very simple, which is to inform the people of the world that the palace has banned eunuchs and will not recruit them in the future. I hope
Ordinary people should not castrate themselves.
Oh, this is good governance. When Fang Congzhe saw it, he felt happy, and immediately stamped the seal of the cabinet, and then issued it quickly. He was actually a little afraid that the emperor would change his mind on a whim, and later change his mind and take the edict back.
As soon as the seal was finished, he immediately arranged non-stop to send the edict to go through the process and then promulgate it.
This has become an established fact, and even the emperor cannot go back on it. Fang Congzhe is actually quite proud of himself. He did not expect that when he was about to retire, he would actually get a lot of credit. When will the Eunuch Party be exterminated in the future?
, you will think of Fang Congzhe, the edict prohibiting eunuchs appeared during his tenure, and you will feel happy when you think about it.
The imperial edict was issued and the news spread quickly. Faced with the news of the death of Budi Guangzong, all the civil servants were in disbelief and looked at each other. The eunuch who had been fighting with them for more than two hundred years collapsed like this? He was about to disappear from the political arena.
Already?
Incredible, incredible!
Those who can get into the central government are not bad in IQ, and they still have some analytical skills. Not to mention how many eunuchs died in this palace purge, just talk about the forbidden book, and there will be no source of eunuchs in the palace from now on.
It has become rootless water and will soon die out. It will no longer have the ability to control politics.
Without eunuchs, what else can stop us?
For a time, this was the voice of all the civil servants. Some of the more enlightened people felt that this was the emperor's sage who recognized the dangers of eunuchs and abolished them. These people immediately praised Zhu Youxiao and praised him as worthy of being a saint.
The king's ambition and actions are the right way to be close to the gentleman and far away from the villain.
They exclaimed that the Holy King was coming and the prosperous age was approaching.
There are also a small number of people who are thoughtful and have a deep understanding of the situation of the Ming Dynasty, but they shake their heads and think that Zhu Youxiao made a stupid move. Without eunuchs, how will they check and balance the civil servants who have greatly increased their power in the future? But they
But they didn't say it out loud, because they themselves were also civil servants, and Zhu Youxiao's ban on eunuchs was only good for them, not bad. They wished that such a thing would happen again and again.
Therefore, they also praised Zhu Youxiao loudly and called him a saint.
For a time, the entire government and the public were full of praise for Zhu Youxiao. This situation soon spread to the people. Through the conversations and praises of scholars, the common people knew that the newly succeeded emperor was a good emperor. In this case,
The celestial phenomenon when Zhu Youxiao was born was once again cited and praised everywhere. With the two supporting evidences, Zhu Youxiao's reputation as a good emperor quickly spread.
Especially after this, another eunuch's eunuch's return order came from the palace, telling all eunuchs in the world to return to the court immediately and not to stay. This brought Zhu Youxiao a round of cheers, and the whole court praised him.
Of course, Zhu Youxiao didn't know about this, and even if he knew, he wouldn't take it to heart anymore. What he does now may be more in line with the wishes of civil servants, but what he does in the future may make these officials kill him.
It’s all there.
After the enthronement ceremony, he returned to the palace and started busy. He had many things to do. He had to guide the construction of the inner palace, inspect the palace, recruit soldiers, check the relocation of the Tiangong workshop, and invent the pedal sewing machine.
There were so many things going on that he wished he could master the art of clones.
He sent out the two edicts and ignored them. He sent two more ministers to Tianjin to summon Wang Wenyan and Xu Guangqi to Beijing. At the same time, Zhu Youxiao also gave the soldiers of the Yulin Army a holiday.
They made their own arrangements internally, taking turns to go home to visit relatives, and there was no one for three days.
As soon as this order was issued, the entire Yulin Army burst into cheers and shouts. They had not been home for five years since they joined the army. How could they not be happy when they heard the news that they could go home?
The excitement was mixed with some sadness.
They grieve for those comrades who did not insist on walking. Since they left their families five years ago, they have never been able to see each other again, and they are separated from each other.
Along with the family leave, there are rewards from the Yulin Army. Needless to say, everyone is promoted and promoted in military rank. In addition, there are material rewards, and no one gets five taels of silver. Together with the rewards,
It is a pension. All the victims will receive a pension of fifty taels, and their family members can work in the salt field. The disabled will receive a pension of thirty taels, and the emperor will arrange work, ensuring that they will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
As soon as such a benevolent policy came out, tears filled the eyes of these simple soldiers. It was the first time that they felt that they were so important and could make people so considerate. The timely and generous pension policy not only made
The soldiers let go of their worries, which raised their loyalty to Zhu Youxiao to a new level. Countless people thought of wishing to die for His Majesty.
On the second day after he ascended the throne, early in the morning, a side door next to Donghua Gate opened, and some young men wearing leather armor and carrying spears came out one after another. They were the first batch of soldiers to visit relatives.
After they looked around and felt the long-awaited prosperity, they rushed out of the city in twos and threes, carrying their baggage. In the baggage were their military pay and rewards over the years, all of which he had saved and brought home today.
.
Among these cheerful people, there was a lonely figure that was very special. Everyone else looked excited about seeing their loved ones, but he looked dejected as if his parents were dead.
Zhang Shize walked forward step by step with heavy steps. His ears were ringing, and he kept echoing what Liu Ruoyu came to tell him before setting off.
The British Duke Zhang Weixian participated in the Red Pill Coup and cooperated with the Donglin Party in an attempt to strangle His Majesty the Emperor. On the second day of the coup, when the British Duke learned of the failure, his whole family set themselves on fire. More than a hundred members of the family were killed, leaving only
Your three sisters are here.
More than a hundred members of the family set themselves on fire and died.
The rumbling words made him completely stupid. He didn't know how he left the palace, and he didn't know how he got home. When he came to his senses, he stood up full of people.
The door of the British government house with black and gray burning embers.
He checked himself and found that there was nothing missing on his body, but there were some scratches on his leather armor, probably because he hit something in a daze.
Zhang Shize raised his head and glanced at the decayed plaque. He was filled with sorrow. He never thought that in just a few months, when they met again, they would be separated forever, and he himself would never be the same.
The cloud fell, fell into the mud, and became an earthworm.
