The imperial court did not need any official to promote it. Emperor Xuande himself continued to consolidate his position as the cabinet. Huanghuai was promoted from the third-rank Tongzheng envoy to the title of Minister of Personnel, Yang Rong, the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion, and the Minister of Taichang Temple of the Third-rank, and was appointed as the Young Tutor of the Second-rank.

Jin Youzi, the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion, also had the title of Minister of Revenue, and was appointed as the Second-rank Prince Shaobao.

Jian Yi, the Minister of Personnel, was named the Young Tutor of one of the three orphans. He then resigned from the Minister of the Secretariat and became the Counselor of the Cabinet.

The title of Yang Shiqi, the emperor trusted the most, was dazzling. He was the Left Minister of Rites, the Grand Secretary of Huagai Palace, and the Grand Secretary of Zuo Chunfang. He was also appointed as the Shaobao, one of the three orphans.

In this way, the official position of the cabinet was completely promoted, which was already the same as the six ministers of the ministers.

In order to calm the criticism, Zhu Zhanji said in particular that Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong, Jin Youzi, and Huanghuai, "all in charge of internal control and no pre-order promotion."

"Prince-controlled internal system" means that the four people in the cabinet are the emperor's servants and close ministers. In layman's terms, they are the secretary-general and consultant, and can help the emperor decide on government affairs. "No pre-renewal" means that most of the official positions of cabinet ministers are renewed, and they can receive salary for the corresponding positions or supervise, but they do not really go to the six ministries to be the Minister of the Secretariat or the Minister of the Secretariat, in a word, they do not have real power.

The famous vote-making power in history was born. At this point, the status of the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet was respected and the power of the cabinet was as heavy as that of the prime minister in the Han and Tang Dynasties, but he just didn't have the name of the prime minister.

The Xuande Dynasty's vote planning system was effective in consolidating centralization. There was no restraint from eunuchs at the moment. Zhu Zhanji trusted Yang Shiqi and other cabinet ministers very much. He was impatient with the cumbersome and heavy government affairs. This made all the cabinet's suggestions almost immediately become emperor's decrees that must be implemented in all parts of the world, far exceeding the administrative efficiency of the Hongxi period.

"Pieta" undoubtedly had a very significant impact on the later Ming Dynasty politics. The cabinet and the emperor cooperated with each other to play the strengths of ministers and emperors. In a sense, it is close to the internal structure of modern Western countries and the democratic centralism of modern China. It is no exaggeration to call it the originator.

The candidates for the Sangong and Sangu were released one after another. The civil and military officials suddenly found that there was still a Taibao left, and they couldn't help but talk about this. They generally believed that it was left for Xu Hao. Besides Xu Hao, who is qualified?

Focusing on the core ruling group of Emperor Xuande, Jian Yi was good at planning, Yang Shiqi was good at ancient times and upright. Yang Rong was good at being capable, Xia Yuanji was good at decisive, and was good at personnel work; Jian Yi was good at etiquette and system, Yang Rong was good at military affairs, Yang Shiqi was good at civil affairs, and Yang Pu, who was still experienced, was a role model that everyone admired. Zhang Fu was the nominal commander of the army. It can be said that each had his own distinctive characteristics and could complement each other.

Xu Hao's status is the most special. Everyone can ignore him, but everyone cannot ignore his existence. Although he doesn't care about anything, a single sentence can often influence the decisions of the emperor and the cabinet.

In private, Xu Hao politely rejected Zhu Zhanji's kindness to be appointed as Taibao because his father was alive and he was young. Xu Hao naturally cared about the power of the country. But he didn't care about the honorary title of the three ministers.

At the same time, Xu Hao understood Zhu Zhanji more and more. The current imperial power is equivalent to walking on one leg. He leaned too heavily on the cabinet. Any visionary emperor would worry. Either he would study Taizu's work and either he had to find another leg to balance it, otherwise he would continue to do so. Once the emperor slacked off his power, he would have a powerful minister to undermine the emperor, the consequences would be unimaginable.

To this day, Xu Hao still didn't think about establishing a parliament in the past. The backbone of ancient China, the gentry was equivalent to the local parliament at all levels. Without the support of the gentry, it was impossible to be a local official, and the stern can also play some functions of the central parliament.

Xu Hao understands better than anyone else that if he wants to be completely modernized, he cannot learn from the United States, because the United States has no history. People can establish a new political system on a blank sheet, start from scratch, and cut off the cultural ties with the mother country of Europe. China cannot do so.

Xu Hao had an answer in his mind. He had ready-made successful experience on the land of China, but unfortunately he could not implement it at this stage and had no ability to implement it. As for democracy and freedom, he could directly enter modernization? I can only say that it is a real second-class or has ulterior motives.

In Yisou Garden, Lianyi and Ye Qin hit the mountain and passed the suspension bridge. When they saw several women sitting upstairs, they stood up and said, "Thank you two grandmas, you have worked hard, and you are walking around every day."

Lianyi smiled and said, "It's nothing, you are suffering."

One of the women smiled bitterly and said, "No way! This place is ten times more lively than usual. People on both sides come and go every day, and most of them are greedy for the road to go here, like a through hall, and the stairs ring all day long. At night, lights are lit up and down, which is even more lively than a teahouse."

Lianyi smiled and Ye Qin said, "We came over to the platform, and the handle of the mirror door was loose. I was afraid that I would take off the bamboo shoots and hurt people tomorrow. People there have no experience. Come and take a look. Such a big mirror is too expensive, so it is better to install a railing door.

The women agreed, and Lianyi and Ye Qin went down the stairs. Seeing Xu Cuiliu coming out of the corridor, Lianyi looked at the patio and asked, "Why don't you build a shed on the hot day?"

Xu Cuiliu said: "Last year, the pergola in my third brother's study was made of machines and very flexible. I set it up with iron poles and made a canopy with silk. There is no need to pull it hard. Just spin the snails on the pole, and the canopy will be opened like a flying wind. Then spin it upside down, and the canopy will be rolled like a flying wind. My wife loves this, so this year's old canopy is not called a set. I told Liaodong to prepare it and send it here. I'm waiting, which means it will be here the day after tomorrow."

"That was developed by the students of the school." Ye Qin smiled again: "It's good, it's just a hundred taels of silver for one fight. Such a huge amount of money will be scolded by the old man again."

Xu Cuiliu also smiled and said, "It's said that there are eighty taels of silver per piece, and there are thirty in the wife's yard, about three thousand taels. But the wife is accurate, and the money is paid by the wife, so let's benefit from it."

A gust of wind blew, and there was no coolness in the heat. Ripples wiped their sweat and said, "It's too hot. It's going to rain to cool down this day. If it continues, there's really nothing to do. Everyone is thinking about going to the water to relieve the heat."

In Xifu, Xu Hu was returning to Beijing with his nephew Xu Ye. The weather was hot. He wore a single shirt in the study room of the inner house and asked the maid Xiaofeng to fan. He wrote a list on the paper, asked someone to take it out, and called the accountant to come over to buy some things to relieve the heat and share it.

Xu Hu asked his wife's decent girl Xiaofeng again: "I remember last year I bought forty large Yunnan fans, where did they come? It was so hot, why didn't anyone bring it up and take it out? You should ask Liu Yuan's family quickly and ask each room to collect it."

Xiaofeng responded and went to find Liu Yuan's family. On the way, he ran into Liu Shun's family, who were cousins.

Xiaofeng stopped and asked, "Mom is here just right. The master called Liu Yuan's mother. Are you outside?"

Liu Shun's family said in surprise: "What? Is it my sister-in-law who is calling me? Did you hear it wrong?"

"Mom is here to make fun of you again." Xiaofeng said with a smile: "Can I hear this little thing wrong?"

"How do you do things? They all think they are smart." Liu Shun's family was even more surprised and said speechlessly: "It was not my grandmother who sent my sister-in-law and her husband to Quanzhou at the beginning of last month, and she hasn't come back yet."

"Don't come back?" Xiaofeng was also surprised and said, "The master is back, why are they outside?"

Liu Shun's family said, "You don't know about this. Grandma is afraid that the master will know it, so she hides it like a stubborn bucket. My sister-in-law told me privately that there is an urgent matter in Quanzhou. I won't talk about it now. What's going on? You have agreed to me."

Xiaofeng then said the words of the big fan, and Liu Shun's family said, "I asked the right person, that was accepted by me last year. I will go back to open the warehouse now, clean it up, and send it back in."

Xiaofeng then turned around and went back. Because Xu Hu had something to do, she returned to Feng Wenjun. The matter of Liu Yuan's family was ignored. She didn't know what was going on, for fear of telling it up to make Feng angry.

When Xu Hu came in at night, he shouted loudly without any trouble. Feng Wenjun ordered the maid to take off his long gown and ask Xiaofeng to fan it.

Xu Hu felt a little more comfortable, took a sip of herbal tea, and said, "Did you hear that my elder brother was dismissed from his post last night and took off his seal?"

Feng Wenjun said in surprise: "How can I care about these things? I can't take care of my family well. What's going on? What trouble did the eldest brother get into?"

"Don't mention it." Xu Hu shook his head, "It was for the bad things that made his nephew angry. He beat him hard a few times. Our third brother and third sister-in-law are now 80% gone to pay the eldest wife aside, right?"

"Ah!" Feng Wenjun was very surprised, "Why?"

Xu Hu sighed and said, "It was too nonsense. Last month, Xu Ying and Master Xia and Master Bi went out to listen to the opera, and fought with the people in the opera troupe for no reason. He ran to the Bingmasi to find the elder brother. Do you think of the elder brother's temper? He directly led the people in the opera troupe to arrest them. Not only did they beat them up, but they paraded in the streets. Later, the opera garden was sealed, and the suits were sold and confiscated. These were all the things my nephew did with the elder brother under the name of the third brother.

But I knew that the owner of the theater was Liu Laowu, and Liu Conglong was the proud person of the third prince. As a result, he went to the Yue Palace to sue our family for relying on the power to bully others and suppress the villain. The master just called me over and for this matter. Now our family is extremely rich and powerful. It can be said that it is a big tree that attracts wind and warns me not to do anything. If I don’t make trouble like this, our Xu family is afraid that it will be unstable."
