In the capital city, the heavy snow accompanied by the howling cold wind turned the earth pale. However, for the capital city, a metropolis with a population of several million, even the heavy snow could not cover up its prosperity and hustle and bustle.
Liu Jin got up from bed early. The New Year was coming soon, and there were too many things that needed to be dealt with before the annual holiday.
Liu Jian and Li Dongyang are getting lazy now, and Liu Jin is basically handling the affairs in the cabinet.
There is no way. Liu Jian is already an old man in his eighties, and his spirit and body are not as good as before. The reason why he has never returned to his hometown to retire is not because he is greedy for power and refuses to resign.
But Emperor Hongzhi tried to keep his teacher again and again, never letting him go.
??In fact, in Liu Jin's opinion, although this can make Emperor Hongzhi appear to be benevolent, treat his ministers well, and be a generous and benevolent emperor, from another level, Emperor Hongzhi still lacks the due sense and decisiveness when governing the country.
¡°An old man in his 80s is no longer mentally and physically capable of the important task of governing the country. If you keep him in this position, it is very detrimental to governing the country.
??That is to say, now that the Ming Dynasty is rich and its people are strong, and there is a banquet at Haiqinghe River, there are few things to worry about. Only Liu Jian, an old man in his eighties, can continue to eat and wait for death.
If it were the past, given Liu Jian's current state, there is no way he could continue to be the first assistant.
Several times when discussing matters in the study room, Liu Jian fell asleep while discussing and almost fell off his seat.
Fortunately, under Liu Jin's initiative and reform, the Ming Dynasty's morning dynasty system was reformed. Every day starts at eight o'clock. If it were replaced by the previous half-shift morning dynasty, there would be no rest days throughout the year. , he couldn't bear it even more. At this time hxjxs.com Zhang Si
For Liu Jian, the best treatment now is to retire honorably from the position of chief minister of the cabinet, return to his hometown, and take care of himself in peace and contentment. After all, at this age, he will not live for too long.
"But Emperor Hongzhi acted emotionally, and repeatedly rejected Liu Jian's resignation and memorial. It seemed that he was kind and treated his ministers well, but in fact he was irrational. You cannot govern a country based on emotion.
A truly qualified emperor should understand that the interests of the country are above all else, and should appoint energetic and capable officials, rather than leaving octogenarians with little energy to sleep.
Li Dongyang is actually the same. Although he is only over 60 years old, his health is getting worse day by day. He gets sick every now and then and is unable to come to the morning service. Even when he does come, he looks sick and has no energy at all. Dealing with national affairs. 强牺 hxjxs.com 读牺
He had already started to submit letters to resign a long time ago, but they were rejected by Emperor Hongzhi. This delay and delay made it to the twenty-fifth year of Hongzhi, and it will soon be the twenty-sixth year of Hongzhi. .
Historically, he died of illness in the eleventh year of Zhengde. If calculated, he actually only had four years. At this moment, his body is completely inferior to before, and he can't even compare with Liu Jian.
Although Liu Jian is in his eighties, he is very old, but he has always been in good health. Li Dongyang is not good. He suffers from various diseases, and his own sons died young and he does not even have a grandson. It can be considered mentally and physically exhausted.
In fact, very early on, he wanted to return to his hometown of Chaling to take good care of himself in old age. After all, his biological sons died in infancy. Although he adopted Li Zhaofan from his brother, he was not his biological son after all.
This was hard to accept for the ancients who attached great importance to inheritance. It was also an extremely heavy blow that made him feel discouraged and even lost his goal of struggle and the meaning of life.
But Emperor Hongzhi just refused to allow it and rejected it time and time again.
In Liu Jin¡¯s view, although everyone thought Emperor Hongzhi was very generous and kind and was kind to his ministers, it also seemed a bit unhuman.
It has already reached this point, and those who should take care of themselves should be allowed to take care of themselves. This is what they really need. Maybe they can live a few more years if they go home to take care of themselves. After all, worrying about national affairs is too hard on the brain cells.
Because neither of them has much energy to deal with the affairs of the cabinet, the affairs of the cabinet basically fall on Liu Jin. From a certain perspective, this is also very unreasonable and detrimental to the country.
??That is, Liu Jin, if he changes to another powerful minister, will there be a situation where he is in sole control of power?
If we encounter a situation where the leader is weak and the minister is strong again, then maybe??That's another story.
From this aspect, Emperor Hongzhi is really not a qualified emperor, which also shows that a good man cannot be a good emperor.
Everything falls on Liu Jin¡¯s shoulders. There are too many things to do before the New Year.
Liu Jin has to worry about the annual financial review, official assessment, many arrangements before the annual vacation, work arrangements for the coming year, etc.
And although there is no need to worry about the invasion of external enemies now, when winter comes, will the grassland herdsmen have food for the winter, will the cattle and sheep have hay, and will the coal reserves for the winter in the Beijing and Tianjin areas be prepared, and will the food be transported in time? Beijing-Tianjin area and so on.
For a huge empire like the Ming Dynasty, even if it was the Haiqinghe Banquet, in Liu Jin's position, there were still many, many things to deal with every day.
¡°I want to retire when I¡¯m fifty years old. It¡¯s too tiring. It¡¯s really not what people do.¡±
Liu Jin, who is so exhausted, is already thinking about retiring at the age of fifty. Originally, Liu Jin wanted to retire at the age of sixty, but after thinking about it, in order to live a few more years, he would just do it at the age of fifty.
The higher the position, the greater the responsibility, the more things to do, and there are too many places to work hard. Zhida z.com Zhixiao
Since ancient times, few people in high positions can be truly comfortable.
??Looking at the emperors since ancient times, their lifespans have generally been short. Many of them died young and left at the age of thirty or forty. To a large extent, this was related to being too tired to govern the country.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading, there will be more exciting things to come!
The truly comfortable people are those in the middle class. They have a good social status and wealth. They do not need to be as poor and tired as the bottom, nor do they need to scheming and fighting for power like the upper class. They live a comfortable life. little days.
Of course, for the people of Ming Dynasty today, even ordinary people's lives are still quite comfortable. With a job, they can easily support their families. They are not like before, working hard and not having enough to eat. Not enough to eat and no warm clothes to wear.
So Liu Jin felt that he would be able to work until he was fifty. Although the taste of power was fascinating, it was also stressful. Not to mention that he was just a minister, but what if he was an emperor?
¡°Emperors don¡¯t just have a lot of troubles. Everyone has troubles. It¡¯s just that many times, outsiders don¡¯t see it and don¡¯t know it.
Retire at the age of fifty. While his health is still good, he can travel around the world, see the great rivers and mountains of the Ming Dynasty, and taste the delicacies from various places in the Ming Dynasty. If his health allows, Liu Jin even plans to travel around the world. journey of.
Liu Jin will never spend all his life and time on governing the country. That's it. There are some things that should be left to future generations.
???????????????????????????? The Ming Dynasty¡¯s surname is Zhu, not Liu. If you do too much and it lasts too long, it will create criticism and make the emperor suspicious. That¡¯s about it. It is also a kind of wisdom to retreat bravely.
I think about it, but I am only in my thirties now, and there are still more than ten years before I turn fifty, so I have to continue to work like a cow and a horse.
Zhu Houzhao is still a happy prince now. Emperor Hongzhi is still in good health. Since the removal of appendicitis, his health has improved a lot. He is only in his forties and is in the prime of spring and autumn. .
This time 7 5zw z.c*om Zhang Si. "If I really retire at the age of fifty, maybe Zhu Houzhao will still be on standby."
Thinking of this, Liu Jin laughed again.
强牺 lingshufang.com 读牺。 Emperor Hongzhi is in good health. If this continues, the prince Zhu Houzhao may have to wait for a long time. Of course, for him, it doesn't matter whether he aspires to be the emperor or not. It may be most appropriate to be a prince happily.
After thinking for a while, Liu Jin looked at the pile of memorials on his papers and could only continue to work hard.
¡°I can now appreciate the days before Emperor Hongzhi.
Not only do you have to deal with national affairs, you also have to waste a lot of time on flattering and flattering your officials, and sometimes you have to argue with them about certain issues.
In short, it¡¯s just one word.
" I'm a little better. When I see those flattering memorials, I turn around and scold them. When I see those literary memorials, I turn around and scold them half to death. This greatly improves my work efficiency.
Zhida z.com Zhixiao. Today's memorials should pay attention to efficiency and focus. They should be brief and clear. They should not be as smelly and long as women's foot bindings, which wastes time and energy.
"Mr. Liu, the Mercedes-Benz Bicycle Factory is preparing to officially launch their new Mercedes-Benz brand car before the end of the year. I would like to invite you to come and see it for yourself."
At this time, someone came to Liu Jin and reported to Liu Jin about the Mercedes-Benz Bicycle Factory.
