Once the court arrives, all officials will attend the meeting. Such court meetings are divided into three types. For example, the dynasty, such as the gong, from the three days of the Holy Day of the Wannian Festival, all officials, nobles and qualified ministers must attend. Visiting the emperor in the main hall is called the Great Court; on the first day of each month and the fifteenth day of each month, all officials wear dresses to worship the emperor in the main hall, which is called the Zheng Dynasty.

The above two gatherings are polite and do not participate in the discussion of political affairs. There is also a kind of court meeting called the Japanese and Korean meeting, which means the emperor's daily meeting to handle government affairs.

Those who attended this court meeting were usually Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, Nine Ministers, and eunuchs from the Ministry of Rites and Supervisors on duty, while other officials of the ranks were announced as required.

When Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang was in the morning and evening dynasties every day, and later it gradually turned into the morning dynasty procedure.

With the maturity of the Sili Supervisory and the cabinet system, the entire Ming Dynasty's political system did not actually require too much emperor participation to automatically operate.

That is why Emperor Zhengde likes martial arts and travels, so Emperor Jiajing has not been to court for more than 20 years, and in fact it has not had any negative impact on the country's major policies.

However, the emperor is the world. In the Confucian evaluation criteria, whether the emperor directly participates in political affairs often means whether he is a virtuous or a foolish monarch.

The emperor's wise and incompetent nature also directly affected the world's evaluation of the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet and the Six Ministry and Nine Ministers, and determined whether they could do a steady job in this position. Otherwise, it would be really troublesome for those censors who like to be stubborn and be used by those who are interested.

In the fifth year of Wanli, the Ming Dynasty decided the world's plan, and there was actually only one person who carried out the national policy. The cabinet assisted Zhang Juzheng. It was not important whether the national policy was involved or not. Zhang Juzheng, who formed an alliance with Feng Bao, the eunuch in charge of the seal of the Sili Supervisor, had enough power to decide and recommend it.

But even so, Zhang Juzheng still had to urge Emperor Wanli to attend court every day, and any decisions made in the court must be made by Wanli after reading it.

Emperor Wanli would not object to his opinion. As early as when Emperor Wanli's father, Emperor Longqing, was still King Yu, Zhang Juzheng was already Wanli's teacher and Emperor Longqing's confidant. The Empress Dowager Cisheng and Empress Dowager Rensheng Chen in the palace would occasionally remind Emperor Wanli to listen to Zhang Ge Lao's advice in everything.

Zhang Juzheng knew that his power was too great and his position was too high. He didn't know how many people covet and hated him. If he made a mistake, he would probably be labeled as a "traitor" and "no emperor". Then everything he had worked hard to establish would be wiped out, so he was cautious and would never be caught.

What he told Emperor Wanli every day and urged Emperor Wanli to do was to let Emperor Wanli fight in person, or to let Emperor Wanli prepare for the rule.

At least this seems to be the case. Everyone in the world knows that Zhang Juzheng, the one who decides is Zhang Juzheng, the cabinet assistant.

The cabinet is located on the west side of the imperial city. There is a special way outside the palace. Through this way, officials walked to the cabinet to work on duty. However, Zhang Juzheng had the privilege of sitting in a sedan chair, which was also a symbol of his respect for his status.

As May approached, the man sitting in the sedan chair was still a little frustrated, but Zhang Juzheng did not notice this at all. Yesterday, the hometown of Huguang sent him an urgent letter with the official fast horse, saying that his father's unstable condition had worsened, his parents were sick, and his children were worried.

But now there are so many things. Zhang Juzheng didn't dare to leave, so he had to reply to his home and let the family do his best to diagnose and treat them. Anything that needs can be solved by the governor of Huguang.

My father's illness is one aspect. Now the world has been clearing the land and the Ming Dynasty has been established for almost two hundred years. Local officials and wealthy families and wealthy families have hidden land and paid less taxes. This time, the inspection and measurement is to find out the fields that are not counted in the Ministry of Revenue.

With more land, more land tax and more silver, the embarrassing financial situation of the Ming Dynasty will be alleviated. A clear grasp of the number of land in the world will be of great benefit to the next policy implementation.

While speaking, the sedan chair landed on the ground. The cabinet had arrived.

When they walked into the house, the Grand Secretary and the Six Ministers who had arrived early stood up together, and both sides bowed and saw each other's courtesy before they sat down.

Wang Guoguang, the Minister of Personnel, ranked first in the right and wrong cabinet ministers, always boasted of his identity. He usually came to this cabinet earlier than Zhang Juzheng, the assistant to the cabinet. This way, his identity is valuable and unique.

On that day, Wang Tong's hundred households were rushing to the morning, and Liu Xinyong, the general bannerman, always arrived when Tian Ronghao came out. It was similar to the practice of the Minister of Personnel.

However, today, Wang Guoguang, the Minister of Personnel, was the earliest one to come. Although he was still so arrogant, he would carefully observe his face and look at his later officials.

Later, the Grand Secretary and the Minister of the Chinese People saw that Wang Guoguang was so early today, and everyone looked surprised on their faces. Then, as usual, they stepped forward and greeted him politely. Although Wang Guoguang was known as the leader of Yingong, his things in the officialdom were perfect.

No abnormalities were seen on everyone's face. Although everyone was intriguing and contradicting on weekdays, Wang Guoguang could see that they should have nothing to do with what happened yesterday.

Could it be that my son was fighting with someone from the East Factory to fight for a woman, but the coarse goods from the East Factory started to kill people. Then after the matter got worse, he forced his family to write a confession and get a handle?

After Feng Bao also served as the chief supervisor of the Dongchang factory, the Dongchang men had always been cautious and low-key in their actions in the capital, and rarely had such a situation. Wang Guoguang was always a little hesitant about the conclusions he had drawn by Zigong and dared not make a decision.

Seeing Zhang Juzheng, who was worried about Zhongzhong, come in, Wang Guoguang quickly stood up with the others to salute. Zhang Juzheng replied casually as usual, and then asked everyone to sit down without even looking at Wang Guoguang. After sitting down, Zhang Juzheng directly said to the Ministry of Revenue:

"How did you do the Qingzhangtianmu? These things around the capital and the prefectures and prefectures in northern Zhili should have been reported!"

Ministry of Revenue:

"There are still statistics in Hejian Prefecture, Beizhili. The Ministry of Revenue has sent a chief to urge it. It will be sent to the cabinet in seven days."

"Every provinces in the world must write documents to urge and send people to watch. The matter of clearing the land of Zhangzhang is related to the national plan and must not be ignored!!"

The Minister of Revenue quickly nodded and agreed. Wang Guoguang, the Minister of Personnel, who had been observing carefully, was also a minister with Zhang Juzheng for a long time. He knew the habits of Zhang Dawang. At this time, he finally understood that Zhang Juzheng did not know what happened yesterday. Is it true that he was not intending to target him?

Wang Guoguang, the Minister of Personnel, suddenly thought of a direction. If the impeachment and attack the Dongchangmu cannot be punished and acted without authorization, then Feng Bao, as an important supporter of the cabinet assistant Zhang Juzheng, would be in a mess. This matter may not be able to move Zhang Juzheng, but it can change the situation of Zhang Juzheng's self-dedication.

Since the Xuande period, the Minister of Personnel has had a very high status in the court. Let’s not talk about the big bosses who joined the cabinet as the auxiliary. After the Jiajing period, almost as the Minister of Personnel, he would definitely join the cabinet if he served as the Minister of Personnel.

But Zhang Juzheng had to take over the power of the Ministry. A Grand Secretary in charge of the Ministry must have a great say in the cabinet and would inevitably threaten his authority. He must not allow such a person to enter the cabinet. Therefore, the two powerful and the Minister of War, the Minister of Rites, and the Minister of Rites are not qualified to enter the cabinet. On the contrary, the Minister of Justice, the Minister of Justice, entered the cabinet early.

Since Wan Shihe and Wang Guoguang are the leaders of Qingliu, they have always been indifferent to fame and fortune on the surface and do not care about their power and status, but privately they don’t know how much they want to join the cabinet.

Power can easily make people lose their own judgment. Wang Guoguang feels increasingly that his inference is the truth of the matter, and he must seize this opportunity.

"Your Majesty is here!!"

The ministers who were talking quietly in the cabinet immediately stood up together, knelt down when the door opened, and praised him, and Emperor Wanli walked in.

Emperor Wanli followed Feng Bao, Zhang Cheng and other eunuchs from the Ministry of Lishui. The cabinet bills were planned and approved by the Ministry of Lishui. Many major national policies and policies were decided in this cabinet.

The Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, the Six Ministry and Nine Ministers, are all important officials of the state, and they cannot be allowed to kneel there. Emperor Wanli smiled and asked for it, and then he put it on the dragon throne.

Wang Guoguang looked at Feng Bao and Zhang Cheng who were standing behind the emperor. The expressions of these two powerful eunuchs had not changed much and did not pay much attention to him. This made him more confident in his thoughts. Looking at the old gods beside him, Wang Guoguang stood up respectfully and said loudly:

"Long live, I have a memorial."

In the court, everything was decided by Mr. Zhang. Emperor Wanli came every day to listen to the old men talking about boring state affairs and intrigue with each other. With the small world that was full of his peers who could make him relax, Wanli was even less interested in this cabinet.

However, today Emperor Wanli was somewhat expectant and excited about coming to this cabinet. Seeing Wang Guoguang coming out for the initiative, Chen Zu almost smiled when he grinned, quickly tightened his face and replied solemnly:

"What's wrong with Wang Aiqing? Let's hear it."

"My family was working on the street yesterday and met with the Dongjishi Factory's son. They quarreled with each other. This is also because I was not restraining my family. I should ask for punishment. But the people in the Dongjian factory were so angry that they killed people in the street. This,"

Emperor Wanli suddenly interrupted Wang Guoguang's words and said calmly:

"What a coincidence, Lian also received a report from Dongchang yesterday, which was also about this matter."

According to the heavenly fortune, the emperor ordered, "All readers, vote for the Monthly Tickets for the Monthly Tickets for the Country, and subscribe to the Monthly Tickets for the Country."
