Everyone knows that what the emperor said comes from the allusion "Zou Ji satirizes the King of Qi for accepting advice".
Someone immediately said: "What the emperor said is wrong. Receiving advice is for the exclusive use of the emperor. We ministers only need to obey the emperor's orders. How can we dare to listen to other people's advice?"
"Okay, if you stab me in the face, you should be rewarded with a hundred taels." The emperor nodded first, and then said expressionlessly, "But misinterpreting my intention is extremely abominable, and I will receive ten strokes of the imperial staff."
Then there were extremely vicious factory guards who dragged people down to beat the workers.
From this point of view, we know that the emperor has always had real power.
The ministers also have a way to deal with the emperor, that is, they only work but do not exert any effort on weekdays.
"Your Majesty is wise, and our ministers should also imitate the sages, be humble and prudent, and listen well to others." Chen Guoguan, the first assistant, was still able to take the overall situation into consideration and quickly followed the emperor's words.
The emperor nodded.
This chief assistant is quite reliable, I cannot say he is too honest, but he is an honest person.
The other party is writing a book at home.
The content is to collect taxes from ministers, big landowners, big gentry, and big merchants, find money, and replenish the national treasury.
As the head of a hundred officials, yet he is prepared to do such a thing, which shows his character.
If it had been before, he would have happily accepted it.
Things are bound to go wrong, because there will be a lot of resisters and rumors, and then he will doubt the chief minister's thoughts, and finally let it go, and even cheat the chief minister.
Now he understands the other party's true thoughts and actions through Xiawang, so of course he believes in the other party.
"Okay, as Chen Shoufu said, everyone should stab each other face to face." The emperor said while sitting on the stage.
All the ministers were stunned.
This scene that happened in the main hall was all seen in Wen Rensheng's eyes.
Although he is in the distant Broken Star Ridge, the Internet is so magical, bringing distant people and distant things closer to his eyes.
It may seem ordinary to modern people, but it actually changes the entire social structure extremely profoundly.
For the first time, justice truly becomes public knowledge.
The cost of doing evil has increased dramatically.
In the past, to do evil, you only had to oppress a few people. Now, to do evil, you have to silence everyone in the world.
These ministers did not know that they were experiencing a kind of meeting often held by companies in later generations: criticism and self-criticism.
This is the boss's biggest weapon against his subordinates.
Things that were originally hidden and tucked away are gradually exposed through criticism.
Even the old fritters will purify themselves for three days after some self-criticism.
Of course, after three days, you can do whatever you need to do.
Wen Rensheng remembers that at that time, his colleagues always had a headache about such meetings.
Now it is the turn of these ministers.
…………
"I want to correct Zheng Shangshu of the Ministry of Household Affairs." A fourth-rank official spoke first.
Everyone looked over immediately.
"Zheng Shangshu stayed up for three days last month in order to raise funds for the Northwest | Army. If he continues like this, his body will inevitably collapse and the imperial court will lose a pillar. How can such behavior not be criticized?" the fourth-rank official said sternly.
.
Everyone was stunned at first, and then suddenly realized.
Good routine.
"I also want to report this to Gongsun Shangshu, the Heavenly Official of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He is too harsh and does not allow his subordinates to make even the smallest mistakes. He always says that if you appoint the wrong official, you will harm the county. He treats his subordinates so harshly. How can he let his subordinates do their work with peace of mind?
?”
"I want to report Wang Cifu. Wang Cifu's daughter only went out once, and he beat her up. He said that she must strictly abide by etiquette and not see her husband before leaving the cabinet. As a result, the daughter hanged herself the next day. Such behavior is unreasonable for a father."
The emperor heard it a little interesting at first, but then the more he listened, the more he felt something was wrong.
Good guy, this is a compliment made in the opposite sense.
The difference is that some people are superb and innovative, while some people are just trying to learn HD, imitating parrots and making people laugh.
"In this case, everyone should write a note and withdraw from the court."
"It is your Majesty's decree to withdraw from the imperial court," the eunuch Li Guoen said in a long voice.
Returning to the harem, the emperor hurried back to the bed and lay down.
As soon as I thought about it, I went to check on the minister again.
It is the largest Yingchun Tower in the capital.
Several ministers were drinking, accompanied by Jinke's oiran.
The emperor was very angry when he saw this.
A few years ago, when he wanted to bring a beauty into the palace, he was advised by his officials that he should not indulge in beauty, so he had to reluctantly part with her and abandon her.
The minister who advised him was the Minister of Rites, who was holding the oiran in his arms and drinking a small drink.
What a moral gentleman!
These damn guys can only use words to deceive the Lord.
Damn factory guard, why don't you report these things to the police?
Oh, the factory owner said a few days ago that there is no money to pay to the fans.
Do you really think you are stupid?
Fanzi are like the white men among the government officials. Even if they don’t have money, there are many people who are willing to work because there is money to be made everywhere.
Merchants, good families, and ordinary people are all the targets of their blackmail, but they dare not blackmail the ministers.
It's time to change the knife.
"The Emperor has changed." said the Minister of Hubu.
"Your Majesty is still an old man with an impatient temper. He always comes up with his thoughts. When he believes in you, he will dig into your heart. When he doesn't believe in you, you will just wait for death." The Minister of Rites shook his head and said.
Everyone nodded.
It seems that everyone has figured out the emperor's temperament.
The emperor was speechless.
No wonder the ministers and workers don’t contribute. The more they contribute, the more mistakes they make and the faster they die.
If it weren't for Xiawang, he wouldn't have let anyone come in to remonstrate with him, so he wouldn't have known about his fatal flaw.
In other words, he knew it, but he didn't realize the seriousness, and he even thought he was doing fine.
Because the ministers are not trustworthy in the first place, they only know how to annex land and collect money.
However, there are also a few good ministers who are worthy of trust.
The chief minister, the governors of the five provinces... there are about a dozen people.
If in the past, I couldn't tell the difference, I could only believe it for a while, but I couldn't believe it all the time.
Now that we have the Divine Net, we can continue to trust it.
You can also know their concerns.
The imperial court has no money, and these people understand it.
Just like Governor Sun, he did not ask for money from the court, but only needed a Shangfang sword to attack the vassal kings and bureaucrats who had occupied the land of the garrison, get the land back, and distribute it to the soldiers for farming, thus establishing a Qin army of 20,000 people.
military.
He performed great military exploits and defeated the rebels, causing them to flee in all directions.
Unfortunately, because of this, many ministers wrote letters saying that he was arrogant and domineering, but he still believed him, and he was even dismissed from office and imprisoned twice.
I am really wrong, I am a wise man and I am a fool, and I am in vain.
I can obviously kill the rebels several times, but I am impatient.
At this moment, these important officials in the court were talking about something again.
"Do you know about the Xiawang? It seems that it can inform people all over the world?" Shangshu of the Ministry of Finance said again.
"That has to be seen by someone before it can be spread to the top. It's not worth making a fuss about. It's just drinking." The Minister of Rites said nonchalantly.
"In this case, it's not good...didn't the oiran see us?"
"How dare a common girl upload any Xiawang? These adults are all descendants of saints, but don't believe in the ways of ghosts and gods." The oiran said hurriedly.
"Yes, what kind of chivalrous net is just a miraculous skill, not worth mentioning." The Minister of Rites advised.
However, the other people were not so stupid, and they all left after a while.
The emperor was very disappointed.
It seems these guys are pretty smart.
It will be difficult to pry into their privacy in the future.
