After leaving the palace, Li Qing went to the Yamen of the Ministry of War.
Since he was in trouble in the military department and spent only a handful of time in the yamen, the yamen officials had no impression of him.
He also asked who he was looking for.
Li Qing awkwardly revealed his identity, then checked in and went back.
evening.
Yu Qian came to the door with wine and food, asked about the progress of Jinling, and told Li Qing about the current situation in the capital. The two chatted while eating and drinking.
"Sir, can I bring the donkey to you tomorrow?"
"No, you can keep it for now." Li Qing said, "It's not safe here."
Yu Qian was startled and said funnyly: "No, they can't afford to be angry with a donkey."
"Nip it in the bud." Li Qing smiled, "You should take the trouble."
"That's nothing." Yu Qian waved his hand nonchalantly, "In fact, although the situation in the DPRK is very tense, it is also becoming stable. Their so-called confrontation cannot actually change anything."
"Yes, I'm just wasting my time by staying here." Li Qing smiled bitterly, "It's a pity that the emperor won't let me go back to Aurous Hill."
Yu Qian pondered: "Actually, the emperor's husband does not agree with this, and even rejects it."
"What do you think?" Li Qing asked.
Yu Qian put down his glass and muttered: "In the short term, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages; in the long term, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages; there have never been pure businessmen. When businessmen become big, they will move closer to the bureaucracy. Even if the businessmen do not take the initiative, officials will find them." Come to the door.”
Li Qing agreed: "Yes, power and money are difficult to separate. In the end, different paths lead to the same destination."
"Why do you still do this, sir?" Yu Qian was puzzled.
"As you said, at least the advantages outweigh the disadvantages now, right?" Li Qing said with a smile, "Don't worry, I can hold it up and step on it, and I will never let it get out of control."
After a pause, "What I'm most worried about now is the situation on the grassland. Do you know the specific situation in Wala now?"
"The two major tribes have been fighting for more than a year or two, but almost every time the Oara suffers." Yu Qian sighed: "Although the court spared no effort to assist, the Oara has never gained any advantage from the Tatars."
"So you suspect that someone is smuggling firearms to the Tatars?" Li Qing asked.
Yu Qian said in a deep voice: "It can't be said to be a suspicion, it's almost a fact."
"I know this, but now is not the time to take action against the army." Li Qing said, "You cannot use the same methods as you use against the civilian group. You need to use gentle methods against the army."
Yu Qian sighed and nodded slightly: "Sir, do you think the emperor can firmly control the army like Taizong and Xuanzong?"
"It's difficult." Li Qing shook his head, "The political soil is different. Taizong not only had a loyal army during the Jingnan Campaign, but also gained recognition from the established army;
As for Xuanzong...his foundation is too strong!
Wu You was trained by Taizong from an early age, he was involved in the army in his youth, and had several expeditions to Mobei. Wen You was trained by Renzong, and his teacher was the old monk Dao Yan who was almost as intelligent as a monster. How can the current emperor compare? "
"But today the emperor has you as your husband!" Yu Qian said.
"..." Li Qing rolled his eyes, "How much do you think highly of me!"
Yu Qian was silent for a while and asked: "Would it be much better if the emperor personally led the army to fight a few battles?"
"No, absolutely not." Li Qing flatly refused.
Just kidding, let’s not talk about the mistakes of history, but just talk about the current situation. Once we go on a personal expedition, the situation in the DPRK will be chaotic.
The rear is unstable, damn Zheng!
Zhu Zhanji went on a personal expedition at that time because he was able to control the officials of the Manchu Dynasty, but Zhu Qi...could not control them.
What a pity this name is
"Yu Qian, remember, you must not let the emperor personally conquer. This is a major event related to the entire Ming Dynasty." Li Qing's tone was unprecedentedly serious.
Yu Qian didn't understand why Li Qing said this. After all, Taizong and Xuanzong had personally conquered the army, more than once. How could it not work with the current emperor?
"Sir, can you tell me why?"
"The rear is unstable."
"Then what if the rear is stabilized?"
"The rear will never be stable." Li Qing said seriously.
Yu Qian felt that Li Qing was too arbitrary, but seeing the solemn look on his face, he had to give up.
"Now that sir is back, do you have any specific plans?" Yu Qian changed the subject.
Li Qing smiled easily and said, "I've done almost everything I can do, so I'll just eat and wait to die."
"...There is no plan?"
"What's the plan?" Li Qing said speechlessly, "The civil servants have been forced to kill people. Are they forced to commit suicide?"
"Uh..." Yu Qian was speechless.
Indeed, since Li Qing came back, most civil servants, no, it should be said that most officials, have become increasingly miserable, even miserable.
Their power and interests are so greatly affected that it is simply outrageous.
From the fact that they wanted to tear Wang Zhen alive, we could see how angry they were in their hearts.
Wang Zhen is just a tool to vent.
In fact, they are dissatisfied with the emperor... Yu Qian reminded, "Sir, you should be more careful. If they dare to attack Wang Zhen, they dare to attack you."
Li Qing said indifferently: "Do you think I will be afraid?"
"It's better not to take action if you can." Yu Qian said with a headache, "Once the trouble starts, it will take a long time to stop."
"Hey~ It's not a big deal. Before you met Taizu, killing people was like killing chickens." Li Qing said with a smile, "Many officials were fine when they went out to court, but they couldn't come back once they entered the palace. went."
"But this is not the time of Taizu after all!"
Li Qing shook his head and smiled: "Actually, the problem is not as serious as you think. With the capital camp here, and a factory and a guard, as long as the emperor does not leave the capital, it will be no different from Taizu's time."
Yu Qian lamented, he still wanted to solve the problem calmly and calmly.
I don't want anything to happen again.
But now it seems that it is impossible not to make mistakes.
Your Majesty, Your Majesty, why did you call your husband back when you have nothing to do? I wonder if there will be a big earthquake as soon as he takes action?
"What are you thinking about?"
"No, it's nothing." Yu Qian knew that he couldn't persuade Li Qing. Of course, the main reason was that he didn't have any better means than Li Qing.
Although he objected to using force, at the moment, there seemed to be no other option except using force.
Besides, it was the opponent who wanted to use force first.
"cheers!"
"cheers."
…
Li Qing returned to Beijing and spent the whole day doing nothing. He didn't go to court meetings, and the Yamen just checked in, making him look like a retired old man.
Zhu Qizhen didn't like his behavior, so he summoned him to the palace and rewarded him with fifty taels of gold and two bolts of silk.
I thought that Li Qing would have a more positive attitude towards work after receiving the reward, but I never expected that Li Qing didn't even respond.
A few days later, Zhu Qizhen released all the officials, and the court was finally no longer deserted.
But Zhu Qizhen's magnanimity not only failed to earn the gratitude of these people, but instead turned against him.
On the first day of the court, he urged Wang Zhen to be executed and Li Qing to be executed.
Zhu Qizhen naturally refused, so they resorted to the trick of being too long to kneel.
He said: If the emperor does not kill the two traitors, I will kneel down and die in the main hall.
Zhu Qizhen: Then just kneel down and die.
Fengtian Palace is not the entrance to the palace. The palace door must be locked at some point. In the end, the officials only knelt down until evening before they were forcibly kicked out by the Jin Yiwei.
A group of people were kicked out and couldn't help but feel even more angry, but the palace door was locked and there was nothing they could do.
Wang Zhen had half of his ear bitten off last time. While he was angry, he was also really frightened and rarely showed his face.
The ministers did not find him, but it was difficult to let go of the anger they were holding, so after discussion, they decided to go to Lianjia Tun'er.
If Wang Zhen can't be found, it's not impossible for Li Qing.
They hate Li Qing as much as Wang Zhen.
It can be said that I really want to eat its flesh and sleep on its skin.

As dusk fell, Li Qing stretched out, left the recliner and was about to enter the house, when he suddenly heard a noise outside the door.
"Is Li Qing at home?"ωWω.GoNЬ.οrG
"Li Qing, come out."
Is this coming? Li Qing came forward happily, opened the door, and said with a smile: "Hey, gentlemen, why do you have time to come to Xiaguan's place?
Please come inside, please come inside..."
This is what you let us in... A group of people smiled maliciously and walked into the small courtyard.
There are no Jinyiwei this time. There are so many of them, and they can kill a young man with tender skin and tender flesh. Isn’t it easy to catch him?
A group of people entered the small courtyard, only to see Li Qing still looking out at the door.
Someone asked: "What are you looking at?"
"Oh, let me see if there is anything else behind," Li Qing said.
"No, come here." The man was afraid that Li Qing would escape, so he tried to be as gentle as possible.
When Li Qing saw that no one was there, he closed the door and locked it.
