360 The Eternal Emperor

Since Emperor Chongzhen wanted to talk about this matter, of course he knew that the issue of over-regulation was universal. If it was just an individual case, he would not even mention it.

Of course, at the same time, he also knew and thought it was universal, so if the law was to be taken seriously, this would definitely not work.

Also, when Liu Weichao was discussing this matter with him, he also told him that with the development of the economy, people's lives are getting richer and richer. Against this background, the laws formulated by Emperor Hongwu must be

There are things that are inappropriate for the times, and it is not a wise approach to forcefully comply with the laws of that time.

For these two reasons, Emperor Chongzhen already had a plan, but he did not want to say it directly.

As an emperor, it is easy to kick back the kicked ball. No, Emperor Chongzhen looked directly at He Fengsheng and asked: "You are the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty and the leader of all officials. Regarding matters that exceed the rules, your Majesty."

What are the regulations?”

"..." He Fengsheng felt depressed after hearing this. If he wanted to have good regulations, he would have said so directly!

It would be easy to say this if King Lu had not been dealt with.

However, King Lu has already punished him severely, so what can he say now?

Disaster!

For a moment, he couldn't think of how to answer the emperor's words.

But after all, he was an old official in the officialdom. With a roll of his eyes, he heard him echo Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, the way of law is with the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment. The old minister feels inferior and dare not do anything in his own way!"

When Xu Shiqi, the Minister of Punishment, heard this, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Your Majesty is asking you, the head of a hundred officials, do you understand? You are also above the Minister of Justice, how dare you feel inferior!

At this time, it was okay for Emperor Chongzhen to stare at He Fengsheng and continue to ask. However, he did not continue to ask. Anyway, everyone answered the same, letting them all know that this matter was not easy to deal with.

Therefore, he turned to look at Xu Shiqi and asked him: "Shou Fu's words are reasonable. In terms of law, Xu Qing is the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. What do you think he should do?"

Xu Shiqi couldn't help but secretly complained, there was no answer!

He Fengsheng is in a difficult situation, so shouldn’t I, the Minister of Punishment, be in a difficult situation!

You can't be the villain yourself, and you should be dealt with according to the law, right?

If you don't deal with it according to the law, then how can you, as the Minister of Punishment, obey the officials under you?

Fortunately, he is also a scholar who has fought hard and has experienced ups and downs in the officialdom. He is considered to be the kind with rich combat experience.

In a hurry, he actually came up with a countermeasure, and he quickly bowed and said: "I think that if you turn a blind eye to the law, or if you don't follow the law, where will the majesty of the imperial court be at stake? Your Majesty.

Where is the majesty..."

Hearing this, everyone else in the Wenhua Hall couldn't help but be a little surprised, and turned to look at him. Is this a risk?

If you really act according to the law, everyone in the world will scold you to death!

At this moment, many people also admire his courage for being able to adhere to such a principle!

Even Emperor Chongzhen did not expect Xu Shiqi to answer like this.

Of course, he also asked Liu Weichao about Xu Shiqi's ending!

If it is the original history, he was originally dismissed from his post by Emperor Chongzhen in the fifteenth year of Chongzhen and lived idle. After Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself, Emperor Hongguang activated him.

However, in a blink of an eye, the Hongguang regime perished. At that time, Xu Shiqi was living outside the county city, and the city was about to be destroyed. Xu Shiqi said: "My minister, the city will be destroyed!" He returned to the city and hanged himself in court clothes on the 26th of the leap month. He was sixty years old.

There are eight.

This Xu Shiqi can be regarded as a minister with integrity. However, he can persist in his integrity to the point of becoming an enemy of the world and saying such things as adhering to the law. I have to say that he is definitely a good official with integrity and principles!

However, this answer was not what Emperor Chongzhen wanted. It was different from what he expected. For a moment, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but find himself in trouble. How should he go back to his preset direction?

Or, wink to Wang Daban and ask him to cooperate!

Just as Emperor Chongzhen was thinking this, he heard Xu Shiqi suddenly change the subject, and then told Emperor Chongzhen: "However, your Majesty is the lord of all peoples, and the law is determined by your Majesty's words. In matters that exceed the rules, what will happen in the end?"

How should we deal with it? I think it all depends on His Majesty's words."

This sudden turn of events caused everyone in the Wenhua Hall to almost lose their backs.

This old cunning guy actually kicked the ball back to the emperor, amazing!

Emperor Chongzhen was also a little speechless. He looked at Xu Shiqi and saw that he still looked calm. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether it was Xu Shiqi who was slippery and didn't dare to take responsibility, or whether he really thought so?

Judging from what Xu Shiqi just said, there seems to be no fault. The emperor is above the law, and it is the emperor who has the final say on how the law should be!

Although he couldn't tell what Xu Shiqi's true thoughts were, Emperor Chongzhen breathed a sigh of relief after all, because this matter was back to what he expected.

However, he did not speak immediately, but turned to look at the others.

When He Fengsheng saw Emperor Chongzhen looking at him, he immediately responded: "I think what the Minister of Punishment said is reasonable, and I have no objection!"

The ball has been kicked back to the emperor. If you try to pick it back up yourself, your head will be caught in the door!

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen was noncommittal, and then turned to look at Zuo Maodi, the Minister of Civil Affairs.

Zuo Mao saw it for the first time and quickly replied: "Wei Chen seconded the proposal!"

So, Emperor Chongzhen read another one, and the answer he received was also "Wei Chen seconded his opinion"!

After reading them all, they all came out as "Wei Chen seconded my opinion"!

Emperor Chongzhen seemed a little embarrassed about this on the surface, but in fact he was already laughing. Everything was within the scope of discussion between him and Liu Weichao. Not bad!

It seemed that he thought about it in silence for a while, and then heard Emperor Chongzhen say to his ministers: "I don't know that there are so many people who exceed the limit now that it is difficult to deal with it. But if we don't deal with it, as Xu Qing said,

Where can I put the majesty of the imperial court? Where can I put my majesty?"

At this point, he also changed the topic and continued: "The etiquette system was made by Emperor Taizu back then. Please wait for me for a moment!"

After he finished speaking, he took out his mobile phone from the sachet on his chest in front of the courtiers below, and then turned to the back hall.

Seeing this, Xu Shiqi was speechless, then turned to look at the chief assistant who kicked the ball to him and said: "Your Majesty, are you going to ask Emperor Taizu for instructions?"

Isn't the treasure hanging on the chest given by Emperor Taizu? Judging from the emperor's intention, it involves the laws set by Emperor Taizu, so he must have discussed it with Emperor Taizu, right?

He Fengsheng naturally thought so too, even though Emperor Chongzhen didn't say it explicitly just now, so he nodded and said: "Probably!"

One of the characteristics of a veteran in officialdom is that he basically doesn’t speak his mind!

The others were no different. They all felt that Emperor Chongzhen was probably going to contact Emperor Taizu in heaven, so they all waited quietly.

When the time comes, no one will have the guts to object to what the results should be!

Naturally, they didn't know that Emperor Chongzhen deliberately led their ideas down this wrong path. After entering the back hall, he just contacted Liu Weichao, smiled and recounted the situation just now: "You don't know, I just heard

After the first half of the sentence of the Minister of Punishment, he became worried, how could it be possible for so many people who exceeded the rules to be dealt with according to the law! As a result, he..."

When Liu Weichao heard this, he laughed. After a while, he stopped laughing and said: "Actually, it doesn't matter. You are the emperor and you have the final say. Even if he didn't say the second half, it's not you who said it in the end.

The final word!"

"Yes!" Emperor Chongzhen listened and nodded with a smile, and then said to Liu Weichao: "Then I will throw out what I discussed with you in a while. With this opportunity, I believe the possibility of their objection will be

It’s so small!”

After finishing speaking, seeing Liu Weichao nodding, he said with some emotion: "Although I am the emperor and can make decisions with just a word, they are the ones who do the specific work after all. If they do it in disguise, it will be a big headache."

Things. With these officials, I now feel that it is really a battle of wits and courage!"

Liu Weichao understood that what Emperor Chongzhen meant was that although he was the emperor, he could not really act arbitrarily!

Naturally, he would not say anything about this, but encouraged Emperor Chongzhen: "You are doing better and better, come on!"

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen already knew what "come on" meant. But it was also because the word "come on" reminded him of something, so he said to Liu Weichao: "Then I will stop talking and get things done quickly. Only in this way can we

With more money and food, you can also get more scientific talents. To be honest, I am very envious of your world and I am also looking forward to getting more good things from your world as soon as possible!"

When Liu Weichao heard this, he smiled and said: "It's definitely possible, go ahead and do it, you will be the emperor of the ages!"

Emperor Chongzhen laughed so much that his eyes narrowed into slits after hearing this. Obviously, he liked hearing this the most.

Then, he hung up the video communication and returned to the front hall.

These officials in the Wenhua Palace have been waiting closely. Of course, they did not dare to speak casually. After all, the group of eunuchs who were in charge of rituals were also there. If they said anything bad, it would definitely reach the ears of the emperor later.

.

At this time, they heard footsteps coming from the back hall, and they all looked up.

I saw Emperor Chongzhen holding the treasure, and it was still glowing. After seeing them looking over, Emperor Chongzhen stopped for a moment, manipulated the treasure, and then the light disappeared, and then put the one in his chest

In the sachet.

This must have been communicated with Emperor Taizu, right?

While they were thinking this, Emperor Chongzhen walked back to the throne, then glanced at the group of civil servants below, and said with a serious expression: "I have made a decision on matters that exceed the regulations!"
