Wuying Palace.
Xue Xia and Gu Yun saluted.
Zhu Yunwen put together the memorial, raised his head and looked at the two of them: "Get up and talk."
Xue Xia handed the document to the chamberlain and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the case of the Japanese envoy arriving in Yangzhou unimpeded with the help of North Korean merchant certificates has been found out. The person who approved the business certificate for the Japanese envoy is North Korean King Li Fangyuan."
Zhu Yunwen was a little surprised.
Li Fangyuan?
I have seen this guy myself. He is neither stupid nor stupid. I heard that Li Bangyuan is calling on North Korean people to fully study the Ming Dynasty. This is a smart man, how could he do such a bastard thing?
After taking the document, Zhu Yunwen read it carefully and his face became gloomy: "So, is it really Li Fangyuan's instruction?"
Xue Xia nodded heavily: "According to the information provided by Li Yifu and others, it is absolutely correct."
Snapped!
Zhu Yunwen slapped the table and stood up: "Li Fangyuan is so brave! Where is Zhu Di?"
"Your Majesty, we have just returned to Beijing and don't know where King Yan is. However, it's not appropriate to use the army at this time..."
Xue Xia shuddered, Your Majesty, it doesn't matter if I am impulsive. I can't kill a few people, but you can't be so impulsive.
Zhu Yunwen rolled his eyes at Xue Xia and looked at the chamberlain: "Go and send a message to the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army, asking Zhu Di to return to Beijing to rectify the army and be ready to go to war at any time!"
】
The waiter listened to the ambiguous order and had no choice but to turn around.
This order is difficult to pass on.
Rectify the army. How many armies will be rectified?
If you go out to war at any time, who will you fight against?
What kind of order is this without saying anything when summoning the generals...
Xue Xia looked at the angry Zhu Yunwen and said quickly: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid Li Fangyuan's move was just a moment of confusion. After all, North Korea is a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and there has been no dispute or conflict for many years..."
Zhu Yunwen waved his hand: "Step back and pass on Xu Huizu, Tie Xuan, Yang Rong, Xie Jin and Yang Shiqi."
Xue Xia and Gu Yun were a little helpless. There were still many things that they had not reported clearly, such as blocking the Korean Shipping Department, arresting Li Congmao's nephew Li Yifu, meeting the Japanese envoy on the way back, and inviting the Japanese envoy and Li Yifu to wait. When they met, it was unknown where Li Yifu, Zhang Ying and others found weapons, and actually killed more than twenty Japanese followers.
The monk Azu accidentally fell into the sea while chanting sutras. Hino Miko had a stomachache after eating. She probably wanted to cure the illness, so she opened her stomach with a knife.
Japanese medical skills are still quite unique, but the effect is not very good, and the patient was not cured after all.
Only five rich people were sent to North Korea's Shipping Department. They all blame the Security Bureau for failing to take good care of the weapons. I blame Xue Xia. Your Majesty, I want to apologize...
"roll!"
Zhu Yunwen had read the documents and naturally knew how the security bureau operated. Yes, the murderers were really not from the Ming Dynasty, but from North Korea, and had nothing to do with the Ming Dynasty. But North Korea's Li Yifu, Zhang Ying and others were just knives, and the people holding the knives were the real murderers.
Forget it, it would be better if these people died.
What Zhu Yunwen is angry about is whether your Xue Xia can do things. Since you want to do it, do it thoroughly. It doesn't matter if you leave five people. You only need one mouth to convey the message, not five!
Li Fangyuan's "betraying" of the Ming Dynasty made the cabinet, the Ministry of War, and the Fifth Army Commander's Office very angry.
Xu Huizu was filled with indignation: "The emperor is far from unkind to Li Fang. He has been summoned to talk to him the most times before the military parade and he is very highly regarded. However, he betrayed the Ming Dynasty and privately approved and covered the Japanese to enter our country. This has constituted a threat to the Ming Dynasty. I invite you The decree is to punish Li Fangyuan. If he cannot explain clearly, I am willing to lead troops to Songjing and ask him what he wants!"
Tie Xuan looked at the murderous Xu Huizu and cleared his throat: "Li Fangyuan is really wrong in this matter. It makes us extremely passive and there are huge hidden dangers. Once this case is opened, the vassal countries may take risks and kill some pirates." , Japanese, prisoners, etc. were sent to the Ming Dynasty. From this, the matter should be expanded and dealt with seriously to serve as a warning to others."
Yang Rong looked at the two people who were singing harmony, lowered his head to look at the shoes, and moved his toes from time to time.
Attack North Korea?
The matter has not yet reached that serious level, so these two are happy to cooperate with Emperor Jianwen in acting. Anyway, there is nothing wrong with showing loyalty at any time.
However, if Li Fangyuan's matter is handled improperly, the relationship between Ming Dynasty and North Korea will likely become colder. If North Korea wants to send envoys at will, there may be many obstacles for students to enter Ming Dynasty.
After the Japanese envoy returns, will Ashikaga Yoshimochi adopt a passive defense or an active attack? These dynamics are far more important than Li Fangyuan's ruin...
"The Emperor is asking you something!"
???????????????Tie Xuan pushed Yang Rong.
Yang Rong raised his head and looked at Zhu Yunwen blankly.
Zhu Yunwen clenched his fist, OK, I will speak here, and you will travel around the world there. Okay, you are really good. Boy, Jeju Island is short of a fisherman, so you go there.
Yang Rong felt depressed and wanted to vomit blood. The price of being distracted was too high...
Xu Huizu looked at Yang Rong with envy on his face. If he had known this result, why didn't he lie down and sleep on the ground and ask the emperor to send him to Jeju Island, Tsushima Island, Iki Island, etc. It would be great.
Tie Xuan was a little dissatisfied and said quickly: "Your Majesty, Yang Rong was just distracted. How could he be convicted and sent to Jeju Island for this? He is the minister of the Ministry of War, and it is not his fault that he was distracted. It is my fault. I am responsible for the Minister's failure to take care of me. I ask the Emperor to take back his order and let me bear all the blame..."
Yang Rong's eyes widened, Tie Shangshu, your sudden concern makes me want to kill you.
Everyone knows where Jeju Island is now. How many elite Donghae Navy personnel are there. It is clearly a military front line and a combat sentry. Regardless of whether Ashikaga Yoshitomichi is passively beaten or actively seeking death, it is all the Navy's fault. You are robbing me of my military exploits and blocking my way to promotion. Aren't you afraid that I will fight you to the death?
Tie Xuan rolled his eyes at Yang Rong, "How else do you want to be promoted?" How many years have I been serving as Minister of War? Have you seen me change my position? You followed the army to the Western Regions and became the Minister of War directly after the first battle!
You don’t want to go to Jeju Island, you want to step on me and climb to the cabinet!
If I want to be in the cabinet, I have to be the first to get in, so why not wait in line...
Tie Xuan is really anxious. Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer foreign wars. The Ming Dynasty does not engage in stalemate or protracted wars. Basically, it completely eliminates the enemy in one go. Whether it is Annan or Timur, one battle will determine the outcome. .
Except for the Tatars and Oaras in the north who are good at running away, the only enemy on the Ming Dynasty is Japan. If he had not made some military exploits when fighting Japan, Tie Hyun's dream of entering the cabinet would have basically come to nothing.
Now the emperor thinks so highly of Yang Rong that he even intends to let him participate in the Donghai Navy's campaign. It is clear that he wants Yang Rong to get more capital so that he can enter the cabinet.
Zhu Yunwen looked at Tie Xuan and Yang Rong who were arguing with each other, rubbed his eyebrows, and said directly: "There are only two people in the cabinet, Xie Jin and Yang Shiqi, which is obviously insufficient. Let's do this, Tie Xuan joins the cabinet, Yang Rong is promoted to Minister of War, and Yang Rong goes to Jeju Island , Tie Xuan is temporarily acting on behalf of the Ministry of War."
Tie Xuan was depressed that he had just entered the cabinet, but he couldn't be happy because Mao himself seemed to have been deceived...
Zhu Yunwen appreciates Yang Rong's overall view and strategy. He is a resourceful person and is excellent as an assistant. Tie Xuan is more suitable as the leader of an army, uniting all forces, adapting to changes, being strong-willed and able to withstand pressure. But in future operations, the Navy does not need so many people who call the shots. What it needs is talents who can make decisions, strategize, and make overall decisions.
Yang Rong accepted the order and asked curiously: "Your Majesty, what about North Korea?"
Zhu Yunwen said calmly: "The Security Bureau almost dismantled the North Korean Shipping Department and arrested three people. Even if Li Fangyuan is deaf, he should know the news. It won't be long before the North Korean envoys will come to Beijing. Just wait and see, if they If we do not explain clearly and show sincerity in apologizing, we will kick North Korea out of the vassal state and all past treaties will be invalidated."
Yang Rong smiled.
Emperor Jianwen was not too angry about the Japanese envoy entering Beijing, because this incident did not change the Ming Dynasty's plan for Japan. If Li Fangyuan is really disturbed, North Korea will be in danger.
Security Bureau.
Li Yifu, Zhang Ying, and Jiang Nan were locked in a room. After all, these three people were acting under orders. After asking for confessions, Xue Xia, Gu Yun and others did not torture them.
Liu Changge handed a document to Xue Xia and said seriously: "Some abnormalities have occurred recently. Most people have quieted down and integrated into the life of the capital. But this group of people have always maintained close contact and seem to be planning What are you wearing?"
Xue Xia looked through the documents, and when he saw a line of words, he couldn't help but become nervous: "These people are actually peeking at the headquarters of the Security Bureau, and have they followed our people?"
Liu Changge nodded solemnly: "If the emperor hadn't given orders all the time, I would have really wanted to catch them all and question them. Pang Huan believes that they appeared near the security bureau several times and they should be looking for Bai Yiyi."
Xue Xia knew that Bai Yiyi had betrayed Yang Wushan and the Yin soldiers, which had basically wiped out its peripheral forces. It was certain that he hated her to the core, but was it too much to set his sights on the Security Bureau headquarters?
"Isn't it appropriate to be so passive all the time?"
Xue Xia was a little worried.
Liu Changge said helplessly: "Having said that, we really don't have any more information about the leader. The group of people in Beijing seem to be completely dispersed into small groups, and there is no clear leader within the group. I'm wondering, are we? We should ask the emperor to approve an operation and arrest a group of people for questioning."
Xue Xia agreed: "It's better to start this kind of thing early. I'll write a document and send it to you tomorrow."
Liu Changge nodded slightly.
The Security Bureau is busy, and so are countless people.
In February, spring is warm and flowers are blooming, and the Qinhuai River is full of tourists.
Only the ten-mile long embankment of Houhu Lake has no tourists.
Carriages carrying goods arrived at the entrance of the causeway. After three inspections, they were allowed to pass.
On top of Zhongshan Mountain.
A figure was hidden high up, holding a telescope in his hand and staring at the embankment of the back lake, his brows furrowed.
The security was really tight.
If you want to enter the Second Artillery Bureau, you must pass these inspections.
The waist card is easy to get, but the appearance inspection is troublesome. You must either disguise yourself or get a human skin...
