Xie Jin, Yu Xin, and Huang Zicheng knelt down to receive the order. When "crying out in pain that the destiny of heaven was denied, but the holy soul lives on" came into their ears, Jie Jin glanced at Huang Zicheng and found that his face was a little pale.
Jie Jin smiled slightly, arguing back and forth, not considering the issue itself, but only considering who has the final say. This is inappropriate. In the end, justice will not stand by your side.
After the eunuch recited the imperial edict, he left a pile of documents and left.
Xie Jin patted the non-existent dust on his clothes and said: "We should honor the Holy Doctor of the Ming Dynasty, respect his legacy, and be buried in the Guozijian Tai Hospital. We should carve human statues for those who come after us to pay their respects. Isn't such courtesy a fifth-grade treatment, starting from the fourth grade?" Is it comparable?"
Huang Zicheng had a cold face, not knowing what to say.
Indeed, the emperor's action completely affirmed Dai Yuanli's status and regarded him as a "holy doctor". Even if such a person was wrapped in a straw mat and buried in the Imperial College, he would still be a holy doctor respected by future generations.
The etiquette of several rank officials no longer meant much to him.
Yu Xin didn't mind this matter, but stared at the pile of documents on the desk, his tooth aching.
When I opened it, I saw that they were all documents submitted by the courtiers some time ago. Although some of them were longer than ten days or even half a month, after all, the emperor had dealt with them clearly.
The emperor is on business...
The thorny question now is, what to do with the memorial "The Second Ming Dynasty, My Emperor Should Be Diligent in Government and Serve Heaven before His Majesty"?
You must know that the central idea of this memorial is two points. One is that the emperor does not go to court, and the other is that the emperor does not handle court affairs.
Now that the emperor is in charge of government affairs, half of the central ideas of this memorial are worthless. In other words, the entire memorial is useless...
If this memorial is handed over, it will not only be a slap in the face of the emperor, but also a slap in the face of the cabinet. The cabinet will also have to come out and explain clearly to the officials that the emperor is responsible for handling government affairs. This is not the case. The memorial has already been approved...
Huang Zicheng also wants to cry, and the emperor is really like this. If you don't approve it sooner or later, you have to wait until hundreds of officials sign it before you approve it. Isn't this just making fun of people?
I spent a lot of effort to organize a group of people, just to establish my authority, win more political capital, and gain a firm foothold in the cabinet. It's okay now. I organized it myself, but I still have to disband it myself?
Xie Jin was very proud, humming the tune from "The Legend of White Snake" leisurely. One look at Huang Zicheng's face made Xie Jin feel even happier.
These people are too eager for quick success, high positions, and power.
But what they don't understand is that if you want to get along in the court, the first key is not to confront the boss, but to stand behind the boss and listen to the boss in everything.
Thinking back to the time when I faced Grandfather Taizu, I repeatedly wrote to him, and even dared to have a hand in the murder of Han Guogong Li Shanchang. I had courage and justice, but what was the result?
If you use it again after ten years, this will be your fate!
The days at home were so depressing and boring, so lonely and desolate. To be honest, my original failure was just because of my political naivety and my failure to see through the truth behind the political-struggle.
For all the political chaos, there is only one truth:
Imperial power is supreme!
Zhu Yunwen is a wise emperor. His knowledge, talent, ability, and wisdom are enough to make him a great monarch who creates a peaceful and prosperous era. Under such an emperor, all he has to do is to guess the emperor's thoughts and obey him. thoughts.
As for other power and status, if there is no fight, it is the biggest fight!
But Yu Xin hasn't understood this yet, and Huang Zicheng hasn't understood it either, so they won't be the final winner.
Yu Xin looked through the documents approved by Zhu Yunwen and sighed: "Send someone to send it to the Secretary of General Affairs. As for the memorial "The Second Ming Dynasty, my emperor should be diligent in politics and serve the emperor before his dynasty", let the cabinet reject it."
Huang Zicheng has no opinion and cannot have any opinion.
But Xie Jin was not happy and said: "A letter from hundreds of officials must be forwarded to the emperor no matter what. There is no need to argue about this matter, right? In my opinion, it is better to deliver it to the emperor."
Yu Xin and Huang Zicheng's faces turned livid, and their faces hurt when Jie Jin returned these words unchanged.
Huang Zi made it clear that if Xie Jin insists on going his own way and wants to take this memorial to the emperor, then no one can stop him. But if this happens, the people whose names are written on this memorial will ignore the facts and make false claims. , impeachment indiscriminately will be punished.
Although the emperor had not handled government affairs before, that was before, not now, nor in the next few hours.
If it is sent up, when the emperor sees the memorial, it is obvious that he has finally started to be diligent in government affairs after handling government affairs. As soon as he started, he was scolded by the minister. If the anger is overwhelming, the co-signer But it was really unlucky.
If these people are unlucky, the political power of Huang Zicheng and Yu Xin will be greatly damaged. They do not want to bear this result.
Yu Xin pondered for a long time, looked at Xie Jin and said: "Yang Shiqi has achieved great results in managing the Imperial College, and he has few talents. Huang Zicheng and I will jointly request an edict to promote him to the position of minister of the Ministry of Rites, who will also serve as the Imperial Wine Festival and be responsible for Dai Yuan's funeral. "
Huang Zicheng looked at Yu Xin in surprise, opened his mouth, but did not say anything to dissuade him.
Jie Jin looked deeply at Yu Xin. This old fox was using Yang Shiqi to protect the people under him.
Yang Shiqi and I are both from Ji'an Prefecture in Jiangxi Province, and it can be said that we have a close friendship. Moreover, the two have coincided with each other in political views many times and have close contacts. In the eyes of Yu Xin, Huang Zicheng and others, Yang Shiqi belongs to his own group.
But do they really think that it is up to them to decide whether Yang Shiqi will be promoted?
As for Yang Shiqi's actions and achievements, all the officials and the emperor see it. Even if you two suppress him, you can't suppress Yang Shiqi.
But Jie Jin finally chose to accept it, not because of the exchange, but because he could not really get rid of Yu Xin and Huang Zicheng with only a memorial "During the Second Ming Dynasty, My Emperor Should Be Diligent in Government and Serve Heaven before the Emperor".
Cutting off some twigs and leaves will not shake their foundation, but will make them hate themselves. Instead of doing that, it is better to sell them face and wait for the next more favorable opportunity.
Xie Jin stood up and left the cabinet without saying anything.
Yu Xin burned the memorial. Huang Zicheng was very unwilling and said: "Let's write another memorial and only talk about the emperor not going to court!"
"Is this still necessary?"
Yu Xin looked at the imperial edicts and approved documents on the desk. It was obvious that Zhu Yunwen was no longer just simply approving regulations to govern the country, but was dealing with government affairs seriously.
In this case, he would not be too far away from meeting the ministers, and there was no point in continuing to talk about the emperor's faults.
But Huang Zicheng obviously did not have such a consciousness and said: "This matter should not be made big. We can find two or three censors to speak out."
Yu Xin waved his hand and said reluctantly: "You can do whatever you want, I'm a little tired."
Shandong, Qingzhou.
Guangxiu stood on the city wall, looking at the camps built outside the city, feeling a little chilly.
Geng Bingwen is indeed Geng Bingwen. This Ming Dynasty's most powerful defensive general took defense to the extreme! Relying on civilian residences, Daizong Gate in the west of Qingzhou City, Fucai Gate in the south, and Zhanchen Gate in the north were blocked. Only Haiyan Gate in the east was not blocked by the Ming army and was not blocked.
But Guang Xiu knew very well that besieging three Que Yi was a common thing in the art of war. "Que Yi" was not "losing one". Geng Bingwen would never allow himself to leave here alive!
It was originally thought that tens of thousands of people were enough to defeat Geng Bingwen, and then they attacked Qingzhou Prefecture, and looked westward at Yanzhou and Jining. Once the troops were mobilized across the river, they would be able to attract hundreds of thousands of people to join the White Lotus Sect. By then, the White Lotus Sect would control Shandong !
However!
Although Geng Bingwen didn't have many men at first, he was very good at defense, and a group of his men were brave and good at fighting. They were not afraid of life and death and blocked his attack.
Now, Geng Bingwen has received support from various garrison stations, and his troops have reached 30,000, but he has less than 40,000 believers in his hands. What's more terrible is that many of them can no longer stand up.
food!
There is such a shortage of food in the city that even if we dig three feet into the ground and find all the food, there will not be enough to feed so many people.
King Qi harmed the White Lotus Sect and himself!
Guang Xiu's eyes were a little red. He looked at Mo'er who was silent and said, "Have you heard the news? Wang Jingangnu is dead."
Mo'er nodded slightly. Although the news came from the Ming army, Mo'er believed that the news was true.
Shaanxi is not suitable for rebellion. The terrain is difficult and it is okay to occupy one side. It is too difficult to win a head-on confrontation with the Ming army on the plains.
Wang Jingangnu's first failure already explained this result. But if he acted again, it would be natural for him to be killed.
"I don't know what the Buddha's mother is like."
Guangxiu was a little worried.
Mo'er sighed: "The Ming army didn't mention the Buddha Mother, which means they didn't know that the Buddha Mother had gone to find the King of Heaven. From this point of view, the Buddha Mother is safe."
Guangxiu breathed a sigh of relief, a smile appeared on his tired face, and said: "We can't defend Qingzhou City, but I won't make it easy for Geng Bingwen, I will give him a big gift!"
Mo'er turned around, looked at the people in the city, frowned and said, "Sister, if we lose, let's give them a way to survive."
Guang Xiu grabbed Mo'er and was about to scold him, but saw the pale face already filled with tears. She couldn't help but feel soft and said: "They have one last mission. Once it is completed, they can live." .”
"What?"
Mo'er asked softly.
Guangxiu did not explain, but took Mo'er down the city wall, ordered people to move out all the food, let everyone have a full dinner, and then ordered: "Five heavenly kings, five kings, and seven guardians, follow me at night If we go out to Yanmen and pretend to flee to Changle, the Ming army will definitely mobilize sergeants to chase them, and I will ambush the Ming army like a huge ocean."
"The King of the Second Heaven and the King of the Third Heaven, once the Ming army advances eastward, you need to go out of the south gate and north gate to attack the Ming army's retreat! Mo'er, you are responsible for leading the main force in the city to attack Geng Bingwen's granary - Linglong Mountain!"
