"The Grand Master has made great contributions to the country, stabilized the court, and benefited the world. I would like to confer the title of Crown Prince and Grand Master Hu Hui as the Crown Prince and Grand Tutor to express the merits of the old Grand Master. I ask the Grand Master to teach me!"
If he had known better, he would not have cried. Zhu Qiyu suppressed his tears and looked at him pitifully.
Hu Bi finally coughed: "Your Majesty's concern is also my minister's concern."
"Emperor Xuanzong put the Supreme Emperor's hand in the old minister's palm and told the old minister to help the Supreme Emperor take good care of the world."
"What's the matter? The old minister is not capable enough and has brought trouble to the Supreme Emperor."
"Fortunately, His Majesty stepped forward and brought order to the chaos, so we can be where we are today."
"The veteran is also worried that His Majesty is too strong and fierce, seeking to do things quickly and regardless of the consequences, so he has repeatedly advised him. Fortunately, His Majesty can listen to good advice, and the veteran is very encouraged."
"Chen Shoufu is a more utilitarian person, but he also cares about the country. Your Majesty must not be overly suspicious of him."
This old man!
You talked a lot of nonsense, and you really don’t let the eagle fly before you see the rabbit!
"Master, I have already said that I don't want anything, I just want to save my life!" Zhu Qiyu burst into tears again.
Hu Xi rolled his eyes. If you were really willing to give up your imperial power, why would you be so verbose?
"I heard that Hu Xiu likes to study literature and has great insights into medical skills. I plan to promote him to the Imperial Academy and serve as an academic administrator. In the future, I want to open Imperial Colleges in various provinces and let him serve as the Imperial College's sacrificial wine. What do you think? "Zhu Qiyu can only give benefits.
"Old minister, I would like to thank your majesty for your kindness, but Hu Xi is not good enough. It is better to study classics and history at home, and don't let him go to the Imperial College and mislead his children." Hu Hui said slowly.
Dislike the low official position?
"Then let's use it as a sacrificial wine, alongside Chen Xun, how about that?"
Hu Xi still shook his head.
Zhu Qiyu understood a little bit. Hu Xi didn't want his second son to side with him and leave a way out for the Hu family.
"I want to re-appoint the General Affairs Department, so I will let Hu Changning serve as the right political advisor. What do you think, Taifu?" Zhu Qiyu said with a bit of flattery.
The right counselor of the General Affairs Department, a fourth-rank official, actually asked for Hu Hui!
The key is that people are not very willing to ask for it!
"It is true that although the official position of the right political officer is not high, he is always with me. After he has made meritorious service, he will be promoted. What do you think, Taifu?" Zhu Qiyu really knelt down.
"Old minister, I would like to thank Your Majesty for your kindness. Hu Changning has no great ability and cannot be the Right Councilor, so I will let him continue to eat in the Jinyiwei and wait for death." Hu Changning refused again!
Do you not even look down on the official positions of the fourth rank?
Should Wang Fu get lost? Leave the position of General Secretary to him?
"Master, if Zhu Ji is demoted for committing a crime, let Hu Changning be the commander of the Imperial Guard." Zhu Qiyu pinched his nose.
The commander of the Imperial Guard was supposed to be the emperor's lackey.
Giving it to Hu Changning is equivalent to giving half to the civil servants. This is Zhu Qiyu's biggest concession!
No more pushing the envelope!
"I would like to express my gratitude to Your Majesty for your kindness on behalf of Hu Changning. However, Hu Changning is not qualified to serve as a commander. However, His Majesty's kindness is hard to refuse, so I would like to ask for an official position for him."
Hu Hui kept sitting, quite contemptuous.
Zhu Qiyu didn't care, and said humbly: "Master, please tell me!"
"Asking for a provincial governor."
By the Jingtai Dynasty, governors had become a regular rule. Like guarding eunuchs, local authority was gradually transferred from the General Affairs Department to the governors.
The governor is an extension of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and is usually held by the censor.
Hu Hui had good intentions and was worried about her son.
Joining the Metropolitan Procuratorate and serving as censor is a layer of protection; leaving Beijing to serve as governor has a high and powerful position and is far away from the whirlpool of Beijing.
This shows that what Xing'an said is true, Hu Hui's weakness is his son.
"Just when Cheng Xin came to Beijing, he asked Hu Changning to serve as the governor of Sichuan and to participate in the politics of Sichuan. What do you think of it?" Zhu Qiyu fulfilled his wish.
"Yes." Hu Hu nodded.
Zhu Qiyu looked at him eagerly.
"Your Majesty, please be patient and don't be impatient. I have one more thing to ask, veteran." Hu Xi said slowly.
Zhu Qiyu couldn't squat any longer, his legs were trembling, and he reluctantly persisted: "Excuse me, Master."
"I have heard that Your Majesty beheaded Ma Sheng, the academic officer, and Chen Bingzhong and Luo Chongyue, the supervisors. I would like to ask Your Majesty, what do you want to do?"
"Master, please take a closer look!"
Zhu Qiyu doesn't look like an emperor at all. He actually has to explain things to ministers. He is really not as good as Cao Fang.
"I definitely did not kill people voluntarily, but the supervisor forced me to do so. In fact, it was Chen Xun who forced me! Then Chen Bingzhong is so aggressive. If I don't kill him, it will be hard to calm people's hearts!"
"And that Ma Sheng is Chen Xun's lackey. The more I give in, the more he forces me to take action. This is Chen Xun's poisonous plan!"
"It's causing me to lose the hearts of the world! It's causing the court to be in turmoil!"
"Master, you should know that if I really want to kill people, how can I only kill three people?"
"I no longer kill people, Taifu!"
Zhu Qiyu burst into tears: "Old Master, please be clear. If I want to kill someone, why should I hide it?"
"Look at Chen Ding, Ruan Jian, Luo Tong and others, do I have any hesitation in killing them?"
"There are crazy rumors outside that this palace is the Devil's Palace, but have I killed Lin Cong? Have I touched a hair on your head?"
"They are all spreading lies and ruining my reputation!"
"These are Chen Xun's poisonous schemes! I know it all!"
"Old Master, although the late Emperor did not put my hand in yours, I am also the late Emperor's son, so you should help me!"
Hu Xi nodded slightly, and his cloudy old eyes shot out a glimmer of light: "Your Majesty, please sit down."
"I'm restless!" Zhu Qiyu's voice trembled.
"Can be safe!"
Hu Hui slowly stood up, helped the emperor up, and helped him sit on the soft floor: "The old minister said that your majesty is at peace, and your majesty is at peace."
It seems that Sima Yi said this?
Done?
Zhu Qiyu's eyes showed hope and he nodded heavily: "I will never forget the kindness of the old master!"
"I don't dare to accept this thank you. This is my responsibility."
Hu Xi took a few steps back and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, I can prove that your Majesty is the late emperor's son!"
It’s done!
With Hu Hui’s final say, the fake can become real!
Zhu Qiyu breathed a sigh of relief, and his tears were not in vain. He stood up and bowed deeply to Hu Hui: "I will never forget the kindness of my master!"
"Your Majesty, please give me the Queen Mother's marriage certificate." Hu Xi changed the subject.
Karma?
Zhu Qiyu stiffened, what do you want with the marriage certificate? What do you want with that forged imperial edict?
Hu Hui, do you want to hold me accountable?
"Old Master, what did you say?" Zhu Qiyu pretended not to hear clearly.
"Your Majesty, please give the marriage certificate to the old minister. The old minister will verify your majesty's identity."
Squeak! Squeak!
Zhu Qiyu clenched his fists!
Just when I'm about to get rid of Chen Xun, am I going to be caught by this old cunning guy like you?
Just escaped from the wolf's den and entered the tiger's den again?
Old thing!
"Old Taifu, this marriage certificate is in Xian'an Palace, not in Qinzheng Hall. Why don't we wait until tomorrow and I will send someone to deliver it to Old Taifu's house. What do you think?"
Zhu Qiyu could only negotiate with him. Without Hu Hui's support, he would not be able to overcome this difficulty.
"I'm getting older, I sleep less and have more dreams. It doesn't matter if I wait a little longer." Hu Hui said calmly.
Do you insist on holding my handle in your hands?
What are you going to do? You have a handle on me and you have to put me in a cage? Or do you want to be Sima Yi?
"good!"
Zhu Qiyu gritted his teeth: "Old Master, please get up, I will send someone to get it!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Hu Xi stood up slowly, his face calm.
He didn't believe a word the emperor said at all. He didn't believe even a single word. He didn't want imperial power or wanted to be Sima Dezong. Go ahead and fool the devil!
Only by holding the handle in your own hands can you feel at ease.
Hu Hui never got involved in party disputes, let alone the struggle for imperial power. He has been a follower all his life. It is because he was frightened in the Yongle Dynasty, and it is precisely because he is cautious and wise in protecting himself that he has lived a stable life until now.
Now the emperor is dragging him into the quagmire, but what kind of temper does the emperor have? He had never seen a demon king who could pierce the sky, only in Emperor Renxuan and Emperor Taizong.
So he is afraid and needs a handhold to feel safe.
He would not hesitate to offend the emperor for this.
"Send someone to urge us! Get it quickly!"
Zhu Qiyu did not dare to stare at him, but stared at the carpet, wishing that the carpet would suck blood immediately! It’s time to turn the Qinzheng Palace into the Devil’s Palace to see who dares to be bold!
He took a few breaths and exhaled a breath of thick air.
The reason why Hu Hui was so confident was because he knew that this rumor could destabilize the throne and change people's minds, so he was as stable as a mountain.
Moreover, killing Hu Hui would give Chen Xun an advantage!
His biggest enemy now is Chen Xun!
Not Hu Ming!
Tolerate! Tolerate! Be patient for a while longer!
It won't be long before we get back the imperial power and military power without any constraints!
Soon, Feng Xiao and Xu Gan came in holding a box together. The box was locked and they confirmed that it had not been opened. Zhu Qiyu asked them to get the key again.
Holding the box in both hands, he handed it to Hu Hu.
His hands are shaking!
In exchange for Hu Hui's support, he personally handed over the handle with both hands.
Hu Xi was sitting quietly, and the emperor was standing, holding the handle in his hands, so ironic.
Looking at the box, Hu Hu quietly waited for the key to be delivered.
After a while, Feng Xiao and Xu Gan took the key again.
Click!
The key was turned, the lock bolt was opened, and Hu Hui took out the marriage certificate. There was also an edict under it, the contents were complete, and the seal was correct.
However, everyone who has experienced the Xuande Dynasty knows that no canonization ceremony was held in the eight years of Xuande, especially as he was in charge of the Ministry of Rites, he knew this clearly. You will definitely not find the main files and auxiliary files in the library of the Ministry of Rites, or even in the library of the royal family.
Therefore, this marriage certificate cannot be fake anymore.
Even Queen Mother Wu, who forged a marriage certificate, would be charged with forging an imperial decree!
The person who did this is really stupid.
After reading it, Hu Hui put the things into the box and locked it again.
"Can you please fill in the lock cylinder and seal the box, so that no one can check it?" Zhu Qiyu looked at him eagerly.
Hu Xi nodded slowly.
This is the emperor's cleverness. If he really uses this marriage certificate to prove his innocence, Empress Dowager Wu's life will definitely be unsafe, her throne will be shaken, the world will be in turmoil, and another catastrophe is not impossible.
Therefore, the emperor used the excuse to exchange for Hu Hui's support.
This is very smart.
Forging a forged imperial edict is a serious crime, and harboring a forged imperial edict is also a major crime.
Hu Hui was also involved. To clear himself, he had to clear the emperor. There were two options before him, either to bury the secret and silence all those who knew it, which was the last resort; or to add a file to each ministry's cabinet to turn the false into true.
For others, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky, but for Hu Hui, who has been in charge of the Ministry of Rites for 25 years, it is easy. He can do this quietly, so that the court cannot find any fault.
This is also the reason why Zhu Qiyu begged him humbly.
And Hu Hui dared to use this to tease the emperor and helped him wipe his butt. He was tied to the emperor's chariot. Naturally, he had to take advantage of the emperor's shortcomings to avoid being cooked by the emperor.
"Thank you, Master!" Zhu Qiyu saluted again.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. Chen Xun can't make trouble." Hu Hui was very satisfied with the emperor's attitude, which was a solid foundation for him.
Just wait for this sentence!
His dark eyes collided with Hu Hui's, and he felt like he was being seen out!
Lower your head quickly!
The corner of Hu Hui's mouth slowly rose: Emperor, do you still want to deal with me? You are too young.
Send Hu Miao away.
Zhu Qiyu leaned on the cushions, with a sharp light in his eyes. He did not smash the ornaments in the Qinzheng Hall, venting his useless anger was the behavior of a coward. If he wanted to do it, he would kill someone!
"Hu Hui, you have never thought that these things can threaten me and bring death to your whole family! You have been pretending to be a follower of the wind all these years, but you have been pretending in vain!"
Zhu Qiyu's eyes were like daggers: "The next one is you!"
"Come here, where are Wang Yue, Xiang Zhong, Fang Ying, Bai Gui, and Ye Sheng? Has there been any memorial?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
The people from the Qianqing Palace had just come back to wait on him, and they were all trembling when they saw the emperor's ugly face.
"Going back to your Majesty, I received the memorial from Mr. Wang the day before yesterday and just set off. Uncle Nan He is handing over the military power and should be returning with Shi Shangshu soon. Deputy Ambassador Xiang and others have not yet received the memorial, so they must have not received the imperial edict. ." Feng Xiao reported back.
"Nan Hebo came back by himself?"
Zhu Qiyu's eyes flashed: "I rushed for 800 miles to send a message to Uncle Nanhe and brought back a thousand people. I will be of great use!"
"My slave obeys the order!"
It's time for me to take action!
…
In the Fengtian Palace.
"Is the Beijing camp going on an expedition?" Zhu Qiyu sounded worried.
"Your Majesty, I will take the oath to fight outside the city this morning!" Chen Xun said with enthusiasm.
We haven't seen each other for a few days, but the chief assistant is not bothered by the reputation of being a treacherous sycophant at all, and his style remains the same.
"Is there any battle report from the front line? Can Dingxi Marquis Jiang Gui and Xing'an Bo Xu Heng arrive at the front line?" Zhu Qiyu was very anxious.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. There are no battle reports coming yet. I think it's a good thing."
Chen Xun replied: "Calculating the distance, Dingxihou and Xing'anbo will arrive at the front line within the next few days. 50,000 troops will be stationed in Xuanzhen. The pressure on General Yang will be greatly reduced. There will be main support from the Beijing camp behind. This battle is worry-free.”
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "After defeating Wala, can you switch on and off Zongheng Mobei?"
His eyes were full of hope, but he was beaten so hard by Wala at the door of his house that he couldn't breathe out, it was so suffocated that he felt uncomfortable!
The Oara people are plundering the Central Plains. Sooner or later, I will lead the Ming army and people to the north to plunder the Oara people!
More than just looting!
When I walk a mile, I will build a Beijing temple! One per mile, all over Mobei!
"Your Majesty, please give up this thought..."
Chen Xun said a lot of words to stop him, but in fact he was just afraid!
Zhu Qi's defeat at Tumubao broke the back of Ming Dynasty!
The border generals are afraid, the common people are afraid, even the dignitaries in the court are afraid, and even the original owner is afraid!
In the dynasties of Taizu and Taizong, the barbarians were regarded as playthings. One Han held off ten barbarians. The generals fought hard and the soldiers worked hard. The northern barbarians were in panic all day long and feared the Ming army like tigers.
Nowadays, people in the court hall are filled with fear when they hear that Mobei's expression changes and they talk about barbarians. When Wala plunders the border, I wish I could give Wala old coins and beg Wala not to rob us! We kneel down for you! father!
What a fucking coward!
"enough!"
"I don't want to listen to how strong Wala is!"
"I want to know if it can be done? If not this year, when can it be done?" Zhu Qiyu roared.
All the officials knelt down to plead guilty.
"Stand up, you are not guilty. I am just asking you, when will the Ming Dynasty be able to gallop to Mobei? Restore the strength of Taizu and Taizong?" Zhu Qiyu did not catch Chen Xun, there was no need.
Wang Wei, the minister of the Ministry of War, came out and said: "Your Majesty, please read my "Ten Policies of Chen Bian"! If our court can do it all, we will be able to restore the strength of Taizong's time; if we only need to do half of it, we can gallop across Mobei and let Mobei be conquered." The northern barbarians dare not raid the border easily!"
Zhu Qiyu took one look and felt dizzy. The first strategy in the memorial was to require millions of war horses.
There were still horses in the Yongle Dynasty, but now the horse administration has been weakened. In the first year of Jingtai, Guo ascended the throne, and there were only more than a hundred war horses in Datong Town, and they were all too old to be ridden. If this is the case in the land where horses are raised, let alone the mainland? Nowadays, the war horses used in the army are all obtained through border trade, but there are not many good war horses.
"Pass it around and take a look."
The emperor, who was getting angry, was blocked by a memorial. His expression was so sad that all the officials in the court wanted to see what was written in the memorial.
"What Wang Shilang said is true, I am impatient." Zhu Qiyu promptly admitted his mistake.
The veteran who understood military affairs nodded repeatedly after reading this.
"I don't dare to take credit. This is based on summarizing the military strategies of my predecessors and gaining something."
When he was young, Wang Wei was valued by Emperor Xuanzong for his contribution to "Ode to Anbian". He was a Jinshi in the first year of Zhengtong and had unique insights into military matters. Therefore, he was favored by Yu Qian, and he was regarded as a good minister who knew military matters among civil servants.
"My lords, I want to build a strong army to restore the strength of Taizu and Taizong. We can stretch across Mobei and sweep through all the Mongolian tribes!"
Zhu Qiyu said in a deep voice: "Today I assign a task to all the ministers. They write a memorial based on the "Ten Strategies of Chen Bian" and submit it to me tomorrow. I will read them one by one, extract useful strategies, and compile them into a book."
"After printing and mounting, I placed it next to my pillow. Every morning, the internal officials came to read it. I read it to Fengtian Hall every day without stopping."
"The Ming Dynasty will no longer be able to strengthen its troops and march across Mobei. This book will accompany me for a day, so I will read it for a day!"
"If I die, this book will be passed on to the prince. If the prince dies, it will be passed on to the grandson, and it will be passed down from generation to generation!"
"If the Ming Dynasty is not strong for a day, just read this book for a day!"
"I believe that one day, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty will be as strong as Taizu and Emperor Taizong were!"
After hearing the emperor's words, all the officials in the court knelt down and shouted in unison: "I am ashamed of myself!"
"There is no need to be ashamed. I will not look into the reasons. I will only look forward. I will see strong soldiers, strong generals, and strong armies. In this life, I will definitely sweep across Mobei! Sweep away the border troubles! This is what I want I feel so much hatred!" Zhu Qiyu said loudly.
The atmosphere in the Fengtian Palace was lively. Ministers in the court, such as Wang Wei, who were knowledgeable in military matters, often wrote to the emperor, hoping that the emperor would strengthen his troops and focus on border affairs.
Hu Hui also nodded slightly, recalling the past, the prosperity of the Yongle Dynasty cannot be described in words. Among all the tribes in Mobei, they had never heard of any tribe that dared to fight against the powerful soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. Change.
Foreign tribes are attached to it every day, and all nations come to court, which brings glory to them.
It is a good thing that the emperor has this determination.
Lin Cong walked out of class on his knees and shouted: "Your Majesty's ambition puts us to shame. We will complete our work in one book and work tirelessly for it. Finally, we will train a strong army and sweep across Mobei!"
Chen Xun sneered, Lin Cong had indeed become the emperor's lackey and had no ambition!
"Shilang Wang has made great contributions to his advice. Now that the Zuo Shilang Li Xian has moved into the cabinet, and the position of Zuo Shilang is vacant, he will be promoted from Wang Shilang to Zuo Shilang to show his merits in providing advice."
Zhu Qiyu wanted to mobilize the enthusiasm of the officials and also showed his determination to sweep across Mobei.
Wang Wei went out to express his gratitude.
"His Majesty!"
Chen Xun slowly spoke: "Your Majesty has such ambition, which is a blessing to the country. But I am pouring cold water on Your Majesty. Our army is going to Mobei. It needs horses, food, and money. It cannot solve these three problems. Any good strategy will do it." The moon in the mirror is reflected in the water.”
Chen Xun's words directly poured a basin of cold water on Fengtian Palace.
The originally lively Fengtian Temple suddenly became cooler.
Wang Wei was even more embarrassed. The emperor said that his suggestions were meritorious, but the chief minister said that his suggestions were useless. So he got promoted through the back door?
"Your Majesty, our army has scraped together money and food from here and there for this expedition. Not only has it depleted the Household Department's funds, but it has also owed taxes for the next few years. It will take several years to recover."
"This is just a battle in Xuan Mansion. If we go to Mobei, the cost will be several times that, countless."
"But the Oara and Tatars have no fixed place to live and are extremely cunning. When our army goes out for battle, they will flee when they hear the news. When our army returns, they will pursue our army, making our army unable to be harassed and without much success. Instead, I got scratched all over."
Chen Xun smiled bitterly.
What he said was indeed the truth. Taizong's five expeditions to Mobei were like this for the next few times. They were spent countless times, were in vain, and were laughed at.
"What does the chief assistant mean by this?" Zhu Qiyu asked in a cold voice.
"Old minister, I have no other intentions. If the two armies really confront each other, our Ming army will not be afraid of the Walas, but they just like to harass and sneak attacks. There is nothing I can do about it!"
Chen Xun sighed and said: "I think peace is worse than fighting. We will spend countless money and food to attack Mobei, but we will get nothing. It is a waste of money. It is better to increase the intensity of border trade and control Mobei with wealth."
"Hmph! The first assistant said it nicely. The so-called border trade is just a yearly coin in disguise!" Zhu Qiyu sneered.
Border trade is actually Sui coins.
The reason why the Tumubao War broke out was that the Ming Dynasty turned the annual coins into wool. Originally, the Ming Dynasty and Mobei carried out border trade. It was the Ming Dynasty that used money and grain to subsidize Mobei and maintain peace. To put it bluntly, they were used as annual coins to provide to people.
But when it came to doing business, the scholars of the Ming Dynasty were so cunning that they turned trade into economic warfare, treating the Mobei tribes as fat sheep and plundering their wool until they died. As a result, Yang Xie became anxious and led his troops to attack the Ming Dynasty, and then the Battle of Tumubao broke out.
"Your Majesty, such an idea is too narrow-minded. During the Xuande period, our Ming Dynasty made hundreds of millions of profits from border trade. The lifeblood of all tribes in Mobei is in the hands of our Ming Dynasty. In our Ming Dynasty, we recruit barbarians to help us fight. No one in the four seas refuses to obey!"
Chen Xun sneered and said: "Instead of developing armaments, our Ming Dynasty should invest more in border trade, use border trade to control Mobei, and use barbarians to control barbarians. This is the strategy for long-term peace and stability."
Yes, Renzong and Xuanzong thought so too. They supported Wala to fight against the Tatars, consuming each other on the grassland, and dogs biting dogs.
As a result, Wala was raised and fattened, biting the master, the earthen fort erupted, and the Ming Dynasty fell into the sand and became completely cold.
"The first assistant is really narrow-minded!"
Lin Cong retorted: "During the Renzong and Xuanzong periods, why was it that the Ming Dynasty was able to control the Hu with the Hu? The fundamental reason is that the Ming Dynasty had a strong military, and Mobei had already been conquered by Taizong, so he behaved like a dog, so that the late emperor could conquer the desert with his benevolence and virtue. , using economic manipulation to control the desert.”
"Now the Oara is the strongest, the Tatars are weak, and no matter how weak the Mobei tribes are, with only 50,000 troops, we, the Ming Dynasty, can mobilize all the troops in the country to resist them. The enemy is strong and we are weak. If we use border trade to control it, I'm afraid it won't be enough for the barbarians to rob. Woolen cloth?"
"May I ask the chief assistant, if the Wala people rob the border trade market, how will the chief assistant respond?"
"Rely on sending envoys to rebuke?"
Lin Cong couldn't help laughing.
Chen Xun's old face turned dark with laughter. This damn Lin Cong actually relied on the emperor to bite his chief minister? Give you face!
"We are doing business in peace, why should the Walas come to rob us? If they really rob us, they will have to find the reason from themselves!" Chen Xun responded with a sneer.
"Hahaha!"
Zhu Qiyu, who was sitting on the dragon throne, suddenly laughed out loud: "Chief Assistant, your words make me want to laugh. I was bullied. Instead of being able to take revenge, I have to find the reason from myself? What kind of sick truth is this?"
"I think the emperor of the Song Dynasty might have thought the same way. In the end, he was just a few feet south, managing a small court that was worse than a dog! Just hanging on!"
"Year after year, you are so shameless! You plunder the people's wealth, supply it to the Liao, Jin, and Mongolia, so that the barbarians can grow bigger, and then they are eventually destroyed by the barbarians! How shameful!"
"My glorious Ming Dynasty is by no means weak to the Song Dynasty!"
"Without strong military equipment, the Wala people can come and rob whenever they want. Are we doing business or charity? Let alone strengthening the Mobei tribes! Let them rob my people!"
"I think you just have no spine!"
"I'm afraid of the Wala people to the core of my being!"
"You are afraid, but I am not afraid! Ming Dynasty is not afraid! Millions of people of Ming Dynasty are not afraid!"
"After the defeat of Tumu Fort, I restored the backbone that Ming Dynasty lost! I straightened up the collapsed spine!"
"I am here, the day when the Ming Dynasty conquers Mobei is not far away!"
Zhu Qiyu's eyes were full of hostility, and he wanted to strike with his sword.
Hu Xi glanced at him, and Zhu Qiyu swallowed his breath and changed the topic: "I will do it to strengthen the country's borders! I will also do it to control border trade!"
"With a knife in my hand and sweet dates in my other hand, I will make all the tribes in Mobei behave like dogs to my Ming Dynasty!"
"But before that, we have to scare them and conquer them!"
Zhu Qiyu originally wanted to kill the enemy, but when he thought about it, all he was talking about were big words. Only when he had the strength to actually go to the battlefield and speak with a knife would he be brave.
See if I build the grassland all over Jingguan, how many of the Mobei tribes will be left?
If they run to the west, I will build the temple all the way to the west; if they run to the north, I will build the temple to the north; if they run to the sea, I will build the temple on the sea!
Zhu Qiyu couldn't hold it in until he exploded, but Hu Hui's look made him feel cold.
He took a breath and said: "That's all, I can speak freely today, so naturally I won't pursue what the chief assistant said."
"From now on, when the chief minister speaks, he just needs to use his brain."
"The ministers will follow my wishes, make suggestions and write memorials. I will read them tomorrow!"
Zhu Qiyu held back his breath, feeling aggrieved.
Chen Xun didn't blush even once, and said with emotion: "I heard that Your Majesty wants to reform the Imperial College?"
"Yes, the quality of the Imperial College students has declined. I want to reform their studies and urge them to improve." Zhu Qiyu said expressionlessly.
"Your Majesty, the Imperial College has implemented a point-based promotion system since Taizu, and it has never been changed. Over the years, the Imperial College has produced many outstanding ministers and officials. I believe that your Majesty's move to reform the examination will increase the burden on the supervisors and rigidify the thinking of the supervisors. It is not appropriate to implement it. .”
Zhu Qiyu frowned, you are just opposing for the sake of opposing!
I have forgiven you once, don't push yourself too far!
"Chief Assistant, my decree has been issued." Zhu Qiyu warned him, that's the end of it.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the decree is still in the cabinet and the decree has not yet been issued."
Zhu Qiyu's pupils shrank and anger burst out.
Do you want me to slap you in the face?
"The laws of our ancestors should not be changed lightly. I believe that your majesty must not increase the academic difficulties of the supervising students." Chen Xun forced him one step further.
"Chief Assistant, in the first year of Jingtai, the Imperial College changed the system of donating funds into the prison, which can be regarded as changing the ancestral law..."
Chen Xun interrupted the emperor's words: "Your Majesty, please abolish the system of donating money to prison! Restore the ancestral etiquette!"
Zhu Qiyu is so angry that if he restores his ancestral methods, you will be the first to be skinned and stripped!
The original donation of money to the prison was also implemented by the cabinet! It’s what you, Chen Xun, agreed with!
Now it's my fault!
You, Chen Xun, know how to pretend to be a good person, but let me take the blame?
"Your Majesty, please abolish the system of donating money to prison and restore the ancestral etiquette!" Chen Xun knelt down, and the Chen party knelt down with cheers.
recover? If you really recover, you will all die!
Zhu Qiyu is going to kill someone.
However, he glanced at Hu Hui. Yu Qian left the capital. Hu Hui was the largest mountain in the court.
Hu Bi closed her eyes, as if she was about to fall asleep.
wrong!
Chen Xun must have reached some kind of agreement with Hu Hui!
That's why Chen Xun is deliberately irritating me!
That must be the case!
"It's good to restore the laws of our ancestors. I just want to use the imperial edict to govern the country!"
The corners of Zhu Qiyu's lips raised: "Come here, please bring the imperial edict up. From now on, the Jinyi Guards will begin to inspect the properties of all civil and military officials. If there is more than what is recorded in the imperial edict, we will be punished according to the crime in the imperial edict!"
Chen Dang's body weakened. If he really governed the country according to the imperial edict, all the officials in the country would be punished by the Nine Clans...
It was really chaos.
However, Hu Xi slowly opened his eyes, glared at Chen Xun angrily, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, calm down, the chief minister is also worried about the Imperial College."
"Nowadays, the quality of the students in the Imperial College has declined sharply. I have been there several times, but it is difficult to find outstanding talents. That's why the Chief Assistant is so worried. He is worried that your Majesty's reform of the Imperial College will make the Imperial College even more corrupt."
Hu Hui stood up and made peace.
"Oh? What does Taifu mean?" Zhu Qiyu asked with a smile.
"I think it can be tried out in Nanjing Imperial College for six months to see the effect."
Hu Xi's move is great, but Nanjing is not under my nose. When the time comes, Chen Xun has the final say whether it works or not?
I will reform my loneliness!
"Let's try it out in the capital and let Chen Jijiu promote it." Zhu Qiyu was too lazy to talk nonsense and directly showed his trump card.
Chen Xun seized the loophole and wanted to force the emperor to make concessions again.
Hu Hui glared at him: "I obey the order!"
The reform of the Imperial College examination has been finalized, and this time the Imperial College students will definitely not have time to go to Xihua Gate to cause trouble.
Everything else must be done step by step. This is Lin Cong’s suggestion.
Governing a big country is like cooking small fresh food or boiling frogs in warm water. Zhu Qiyu can't stand his impatience. He really wants to kill them all indiscriminately, but after killing them, he can't manage the country. It's depressing!
The corners of Zhu Qiyu's lips raised: "Chief Assistant, why hasn't Chen Shan come to the palace to accompany you?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, Chen Shan is ill. When her illness passes, she will come to the palace to accompany you." Chen Xun responded.
Zhu Qiyu was noncommittal: "Where is Chen Ying?"
Chen Xun's face twitched unnaturally.
"Your Majesty, Chen Ying has arrived in Beizhili and will arrive in the capital within two days." He Wenyuan reported back.
"Send the knight and speed up. I will see him tomorrow!"
Zhu Qiyu saw clearly that Chen Xun's face was getting darker and darker, and this was the effect he wanted.
Aren't you making me angry?
I will take it out on your son!
"I have something to report!" Mu Zhuang, the young minister of Dali Temple, stood up.
"speak."
"I followed your majesty's order to track down the lost treasure in Liku. I have found something recently. I have written it down in the memorial. Please read it with your majesty's holy eyes."
Mu Zhuang presented the memorial.
Zhu Qiyu opened it, took a look, and frowned.
coming!
He Mu Zhuang was originally a young minister of Dali Temple in Nanjing. When he promoted him to Chen Dang?
"Mu Shaoqing, is there any evidence for what was reported in the memorial?" Zhu Qiyu asked.
"I have you!"
Zhu Qiyu's eyes sharpened: "Really?"
Before Mu Zhuang could speak, Chen Xun rushed to ask, "What did Mu Shaoqing say? That made His Majesty so unhappy?"
Asking questions knowingly!
Zhu Qiyu gritted his teeth and said, "Let's pass it on."
The memorial states that Fan Guang's wife's brother, Zheng, displayed several royal objects at the farm outside the city. After he was captured, he could not bear the torture and admitted that these were gifts from his brother-in-law Fan Guang.
Dali Temple did not dare to arrest Fan Guang for interrogation, so it went to court in the morning to ask the emperor for instructions.
Frame up, frame up again!
Chen Xun framed Wang Wen's son, Zhu Qiyu framed Chen Xun's son, and this time Chen Xun framed Fan Guangda's brother-in-law.
"I ask your Majesty to punish Fan Guang severely!"
Chen Xun yelled angrily, spitting out the foam stars: "Fan Guang knowingly committed a crime, and his crime will be increased by one degree!"
"I request your majesty to ask Dali Temple to arrest Fan Guang immediately and interrogate him with torture. The whole story will surely be revealed!"
"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry about a mutiny in the capital camp. I will be stationed in the capital camp now to stabilize the army for your majesty!"
Fuck you old wood!
I don't worry about you!
You will mutiny only if you go to Beijing Camp!
Zhu Qiyu had a cold face. It was so wonderful that Liku's treasure was stolen. Anyone could be implicated.
Being implicated is a serious crime and there is no solution.
"Chao Fan Guang to come to Fengtian Palace!" Zhu Qiyu had no choice.
Chen Xun raised the corners of his mouth, this was the effect he wanted!
If you want to spare Fan Guang, you have to spare my son!
If you want to kill my son, I will use Fan Guang to back you up!
"Quickly go and tell Liang Yue that if something unexpected happens in the court, I will let him take charge of the capital camp and tell him that he must take control of the capital camp! No matter what the cost!"
Zhu Qiyu was worried that someone would take advantage of Fan Guang's time away from the camp to cause trouble.
So let Liang Yue take care of emergencies.
It would be great if Fang Ying and others came to Beijing.
Zhu Qiyu had just finished explaining to Feng Xiao, and his eyes moved: "Come back, Liang Yue, don't go to the capital camp, just take care of the capital's defense. If there is a change, seal the city gate."
Liang Yue went to Jingying. He was unfamiliar with the place and it would take time to control Jingying.
And once a rebellion breaks out, the most precious thing is time.
Therefore, Liang Yue could not move.
Zhu Qiyu pondered over and over, and he thought the best place to kill him was to shoot him with a crossbow on the way back to Qianqing Palace from Fengtian Palace.
But all the irrelevant people in the palace were cleared out.
The imperial guards who are on duty are also Song Wei, Li Jin and others. Last night, Zhu Qiyu ordered that it is forbidden to bring firearms and bows and crossbows into the palace, just to be careful of unexpected events.
But Chen Xun is so out of character today, opposing me everywhere? Force me to take action?
Or did he arrange his crossbowmen on the way back to take my life?
Zhu Qiyu was undecided.
"Your Majesty, please set up more chariots tomorrow so that people don't know which chariot you are riding in."
Feng Xiao lowered his voice and said: "Today, I will take the royal chariot back!"
Zhu Qiyu looked at him deeply.
Feng Xiao did not dare to kneel down directly for fear of alarming the courtiers, so he said anxiously: "Your Majesty, you are the god of our slaves. I can die, but you can't! Besides, I have a hard life and can't die! Please give me some help. This slave’s opportunity to serve you!”
Zhu Qiyu looked into his eyes with a moved expression and nodded slowly: "Feng Xiao, I will never forget your loyalty!"
"This is what a slave should do!"
Feng Xiao took two steps back and said with a firm expression: "Your Majesty, it's not convenient to talk much in the court, so I'll take my leave first."
Zhu Qiyu looked at him deeply, hoping not.
At this time, Fan Guang arrived after hearing the imperial edict.
Entering the Fengtian Hall, he lay down in the center of the hall and said, "Your Majesty, Fan Guang, respectfully greets you!"
"I am safe."
Zhu Qiyu moved his fingers: "Show him the memorial played by Mu Shaoqing."
Fan Guang glanced at it, his face suddenly changed, and he exclaimed: "Your Majesty, please be aware of it. I will never dare to steal or hide the treasures in the treasury! Your Majesty, please be aware of it!"
"My dear, don't worry, I believe in you, just like I believe in Chen Ying, the son of the chief minister. You are all sensible people, how could you do such a stupid thing?"
"I don't believe it!"
"Even if Riku was really stolen by you, you would never dare to take it out openly!"
"There must be someone with ulterior motives who is sowing discord in the middle! It must be!"
Zhu Qiyu gritted his teeth and said.
Chen Xun was happy, look, in order to save Fan Guang, you also have to save my son!
"I think what your majesty said is true!"
Chen Xun knelt on the ground: "Uncle Ning Yuan is a sensible person, how come he doesn't know the grave sin of using treasures in the treasury privately?"
"But now that the city is full of turmoil, I think that Uncle Ning Yuan should be handed over to Dali Temple for strict investigation, so that Uncle Ning Yuan can be cleared and the people of the world can be at ease!"
Fan Guang's face turned pale and he was still in a state of confusion.
"What the chief assistant said is true, so let me, together with Chen Ying, investigate it myself." Zhu Qiyu said calmly.
With Fan Guang by his side, he felt safer.
Unless I die, no one will dare to lead the Beijing camp into the palace to rebel, and the soldiers in the Beijing camp will not agree.
Therefore, no matter where Fan Guang is, he has no worries in the Beijing camp.
This is what Zhu Qiyu is puzzled by. If he wants to meet Zhu Jianshen, he can only have a chance by setting up an ambush on the road and killing the emperor with a crossbow.
Otherwise, there will be no second chance to win the goal!
What kind of medicine is sold in Chen Xun's gourd?
"Your Majesty is very close to Uncle Ning Yuan, and it is known to the whole world. If Your Majesty comes to investigate, he may be known as a protector. Even if he clears Ning Yuan, he may not be able to convince the world! If Your Majesty does not believe in Dali Temple, you can submit it to the Tribunal for review. !" Chen Xun was going to beat Fan Guang to death.
The last time he forced Fan Guang's daughter to be divorced and his son to break off their good match, Fan Guang didn't compromise. This time he actually wanted to kill him directly!
"I'm very close to you, and I also came to check on Chen Ying." Zhu Qiyu regretted saying it.
Don't forget, what Chen Xun has been thinking about all along is to hand over Chen Ying to the three divisions for trial.
Because the three law departments are all civil servants, although they may not be trying to save Chen Xun's face, they still need to get to the bottom of things. Doesn’t Chen Xun know whether Chen Ying has done it or not? He is not afraid of being investigated.
But Fan Guang is different. Fan Guang is a disobedient new noble. If we don't verify it for him, it will be a disgrace between civil and military officials!
"I ask your majesty to hand Chen Ying over to the Tribunal for trial! If he is guilty, I will kill him myself!"
Chen Xunshun climbed up the pole, what he wanted was this effect!
