Logically speaking, it is not easy for a person who is an emperor to decide who will be an official?
There are two things to say about this. If you just force him to stay in that position, it would be easy.
Emperor Xianzong set a precedent for appointing officials... that is, regardless of the staff, and appointing officials directly by imperial decree...
When we get to Emperor Hongzhi, we can still arrange personal arrangements, so what's the problem?
It's no problem.
Who else can pull him down or kill him?
of course not.
However, when you are a leader, or an emperor, you must remember what your purpose is.
For example, Emperor Hongzhi now intends to recruit a famous general like Wang Yue when the border situation is tense. So, what is his purpose?
Not to give Wang Yue an official, not to have trouble with the civil servants,
It was to let him be this official and solve the problems of the court.
So the court...or the emperor had to create a situation for him to solve the problem.
We can't send him there and let him face thousands of difficulties and dangers. Everyone is against him. It takes 9981 to fight a war. That means sending Yue Fei there will also make him die. Even if this is really necessary, you cannot play this trick in the border war, otherwise wouldn't you be cheating yourself?
Nowadays, Qingliu in the court does not support Wang Yue's resurrection, and even wants to punish him.
At this time, an imperial edict was drawn up for him to be the chief controller of the three sides. What's the use?
After he left, officials in Beijing did not support him, and local officials, most of whom had backgrounds in Beijing, also did not support him.
Can Wang Yue still be a god?
In current terms, the team must be united!
In the past, it was okay for Li Guang to be alive. After all, he had people from his own faction to help him. Now that Li Guang is dead and everyone avoids him, who will really support him?
This is the difficulty.
If you are sent forcefully and end up losing the battle, you, the emperor, will be most responsible! This is called incompetent leadership!
…
…
Tingtui ended helplessly in a fruitless atmosphere,
The crown prince stayed, watching the emperor shaking his head and sighing, there was nothing he could do.
Zhu Houzhao didn't speak either. He also needed time to sort out the situation.
"...At the beginning, they were also talking about killing thieves for the country and getting rid of traitors for the country! One by one, they came and forced me to kill Li Guang! Now there is an undercurrent in the court, but the same group of people are standing behind Stay safe on the dry bank! No one is willing to say a word for the sake of the country and me. Even the person who recommended Wang Yue is related to Li Guang, thinking that he will be unable to support himself in the court! Sometimes I wonder, who is in charge of this court? ?" Emperor Hongzhi now felt very depressed when he thought of this incident, and he kept talking about resentment to himself.
Zhu Houzhao sat on his knees on the emperor's royal couch, flipping through the memorials page by page in his hand, his face calm.
In fact, in Zhu Houzhao's view, the emperor's words were a bit naive.
What does this group of people have to do with protecting themselves and whether they kill Li Guang or not? Li Guang is a danger to the country, so killing him is certainly better than not killing him.
As for the problems it has caused, we can just eliminate them.
And if you kill it one day later or one day earlier, it will have a great impact. We cannot say that we will kill people when the country is stable.
When can I feel safe?
When will the water under the Forbidden City become less violent?
Of course, these civil servants are not good either. He, Zhu Houzhao, does not read memorials every day. How could he know that the country is in such a situation? But the civil servants are different, they know it.
Perhaps, killing Li Guang is more important to them. After all, the opportunity is rare. After all, this is the center, which is more important than the border.
After all, the situation at the border is still at the border, and the capital cannot be burned.
Or perhaps, people felt that without Wang Yue, they could still send others there.
Without Butcher Wang, would we have to eat pigs with hair on them?
It's hard to say that there is still a group of people who want to recommend themselves, thinking that as long as they have the chance, they can kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds.
However, there is no point in blaming these now.
The situation between North Korea and China is such that a single move affects the whole body.
"The Criminal Division is in charge of the matter, and Zhang Chao will use it." Zhu Houzhao saw the signature of this memorial and silently remembered it in his heart.
"Zhao'er," the emperor called him.
"My son is here."
Emperor Hongzhi came over and took his hand, "Your Majesty, please remember that in this world, what the ministers say is right may not be right, and what the ministers say is wrong may not be wrong."
"When is the right time?"
The emperor thought for a while and said, "You are right when you say it is right and it works."
Zhu Houzhao smiled imperceptibly. The emperor was really angry.
"Father, I would like to ask my father a question."
Emperor Hongzhi no longer showed so much expression towards his son, and after a slight adjustment, he said, "You say it."
"Why is my father unwilling to use those recommended by the ministers?"
The emperor did not hide it from him, "They are far inferior to Wang Yue. Wang Yue has been in the northwest for many years and has experienced wars for a long time. He either doesn't move or moves with success. The little Tatar prince must have such a person to deal with it."
"Since there is such a person, why didn't he be used to guard the border in the past, and why did he wait until now to use him?"
The emperor did not expect that the crown prince suddenly questioned him like this,
I was speechless for a moment and didn't expect the answer to this question.
In the end, he could only say vaguely: "Wang Yue, although he has great talents, has poor moral character. In the past... he was unwilling to use him in the past."
"Dad. As a son, I have an unkind request. I want you to agree to it."
Zhu Houzhao raised his hands to bow, and suddenly changed his name to the emperor and was startled.
But she still glanced at him lovingly, held his hand and said, "What are you talking about? We, father and son, are connected. As long as it is good for you, I, the father, will agree to it."
"The son wants to ask his father to agree. If his son can find a way to get the courtiers to agree to Wang Yue's departure to the northwest three sides of the town, he will not trust the advice of the courtiers in the future, so that Wang Yue can focus on killing the enemy in the northwest."
The soldiers at the front fought bloody battles, sweat was shed and blood was left behind.
The court officials in the rear often fought with each other, often causing the soldiers to bleed and suffer injustice. The enemy could not do anything to them, but it was his own life that was in trouble.
Especially Wang Yue, who has a bird-like character,
So many people don't like him. Once he achieves military exploits and receives rewards, more people will be jealous.
When the time comes, I'm afraid someone will say something mean and hurt the general's heart.
This was unacceptable to Zhu Houzhao.
Emperor Hongzhi did not expect that his prince would say these words, and asked with some surprise: "Zhao'er really has a way to get the ministers to support Wang Yue as the trilateral president?"
"It all depends on people. My son's fate cannot be determined. But it's okay to try." Zhu Houzhao did not guarantee that he would be able to complete it.
But just like he said, try it, there is no cost to try it.
Emperor Hongzhi was a little hesitant, but he knew that he had given birth to an extraordinary son. After thinking for a while, he agreed, "Okay, if you can really do it, then dad will not only agree to this. From now on, Wang Yue will also be handed over to me." You, his life or death is up to you."
When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he thought it would be better to go to Hongzhi.
"According to the order!" He agreed happily, "That's right, Dad. I also heard that the account books were found in Li Guang's house?"
"Oh, tell me this." The emperor immediately turned around and waved, "Xiao Jing, bring something to show to the prince."
"Yes." Eunuch Xiao thought to himself that the emperor was indeed sincere towards the prince.
Zhu Houzhao looked at the account to let him know who was really with Li Guang and who was not. It was a bit like playing cards... and peeking at the bottom of the cards.
There is a name on this account book: Tu Yu.
It was the Minister of Civil Affairs, Tu Yu.
No wonder the emperor said what he said at the beginning: Even the person who recommended Wang Yue was related to Li Guang, thinking that he would be unable to support himself in the court.
Although this is actually wrong.
"Dad, can I take this thing back to the East Palace to see?"
"Take it if you think you need it. I really don't want to see it again..." The emperor felt a little discouraged after saying that. He originally believed in these civil servants. But today I suddenly discovered that the world is not like that at all.
Zhu Houzhao got the permission, packed up and left Qianqing Palace.
When he arrived outside the palace, the cold air made his mind more active.
So why is it wrong to say that a single tree cannot survive alone?
Because Li Guang is dead and the pillars are gone, what's left, whether it's a single tree or a double tree, or a hundred pieces of wood, what's the use?
The biggest hope is to see the Buddha, and the rest is still hope.
Under such circumstances, those who strongly recommended Wang Yue to resurrect were not doing it to help him, but clearly wanting to harm him.
Because Wang Yue likes to cling to eunuchs, because Wang Yue is so arrogant, and because Wang Yue's reputation is ruined!
If Wang Yue can still recover at this time, you can imagine how angry Qingliu will be.
So naturally, Wang Yue is the first nail that Qingliu wants to remove!
If the king does not come, who will everyone be angry at? Perhaps no one specifically picked Wang Yuelai as a shield, so he could only blame his bad luck. At this time, the court wanted to promote the three-party chief controller.
Once the emperor wants to use him against all objections, and the border defense situation is tense and he is needed, he will naturally not be killed easily!
So a group of officials must have been fighting with the emperor for a long time.
And it's easy to guess the day the battle ended, which was the day Wang Yue returned in triumph.
As for the middle... the war must be fought and won, and it will take a year and a half anyway.
In this case, the people hiding under Wang Yue's "evil flag" will still have time to turn things around, and things may turn around. Anyway, it will be much better than suddenly facing the news of Li Guang's death like today.
To put it bluntly: Wang Yue is a person who wears the sign of "Li Guang's power". If he does not fall, then I will not fall; if I want to fall, then he must fall first!
So it is definitely wrong to say that a single tree cannot support itself.
So Zhu Houzhao wanted to ask the emperor for that guarantee.
After understanding this, Zhu Houzhao became more sober.
But under the dim dusk, the prince's back in the Forbidden City became increasingly blurry as he walked further and further away.
The road ahead is long and people's hearts are dangerous. This old general is already in his seventies.
well.
