Zhu Jianshen sat in front of the emperor's case and looked at the three people below. He kept talking. Although his tone was calm, the three of them could feel the suppressed anger from the emperor's calm tone.
Li Xian, Chen Ying, and Zhu Ji were all shocked after hearing what His Majesty the Emperor said.
Something happened to Annan. He had just established a big advantage. At the beginning of the year, Shi Heng, who was personally praised by His Majesty the Emperor, acted like a monster.
Today's Annan is the most important place in the Ming Dynasty.
Annan is settled and Southwest is peaceful, this is something that everyone knows very well.
Trading overseas or establishing colonies in the New World are all matters that will affect future generations. However, the incident in Annan is related to the safety of the southwestern half of the Ming Dynasty. This is a major event at hand.
Shi Heng has hundreds of thousands of troops under his command who are capable of conquering and fighting.
And these armies have experienced wars and have strong combat effectiveness. Whether they are entrenched in Annan, if they directly rebel and attack Yunnan and Guangxi, they will definitely not be able to stop them with only the troops and horses of the three southwest provinces.
At that time, the imperial court will recruit troops on a large scale and head to the southwest.
A small battle to destroy Annan might turn into a major civil strife.
If Han Yong cannot control the situation, Shi Heng will really rebel.
Then all the energy of the court will be devoted to suppressing the rebellion.
The situation that the court had finally settled down began to become turbulent. Four months after Yu Qian left, the center of power was about to experience a new shock.
For the civil servant group, fighting means spending money and consuming national power, not to mention an internal rebellion that should not exist.
This is also very bad news for Wu Xun.
The promotion of civil servants and the suppression of martial arts is itself a method used by rulers after careful consideration when governing the country.
His Majesty the Emperor has always been advocating martial arts to rule the world, which allowed Wu Xun to compete with the civil servants, and when Yu Qian was around, he was able to fight against etiquette.
But if Shi Heng really rebelled.
Then Wu Xun will have to go back to the old path.
Their entire group will leave a deep and indelible impression on His Majesty the Emperor.
These guys are the sixth and can’t be trusted.
Under this impression, in order to maintain the tranquility of the country, he will definitely follow the previous national policy and control the military with civility. This is just following the old path...
After Zhu Jianshen finished talking about Jiaozhou, he looked directly at Chen Ying, and then asked word for word: "Shi Heng is arrogant, arrogant, and intends to rebel. Ning Guogong, how do you want to deal with him..."
"Should he be killed, or should he be imprisoned in the capital, where hundreds of officials will discuss the crime..."
Chen Ying hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, for the sake of the overall situation, we still have to see who wins in Jiaozhou City. If Han Shangshu controls Shi Heng, he will immediately issue an order to bring Shi Heng back to the capital for questioning. If it is Shi Heng, Shi Heng will take it." After getting rid of Han Yong and Mu Zan, you still need to act carefully, so as not to anger Shi Heng and make the situation difficult to control..."
After Zhu Jianshen listened, although he knew that what Chen Ying said was reasonable and that it was a compromise for the sake of stability ahead, he was still a little angry.
Looking at Chen Ying, he said: "Does the imperial court still have to wait, waiting for them to decide the winner? Waiting, my soldiers on the front line will die under the sword of their own people..."
After hearing this, Chen Ying could only lower his head and say nothing. At this time, it would be wrong to say more.
And Chen Ying's dissatisfaction with Shi Heng has reached its peak. Could it be that Shi Heng really couldn't understand that he was named the Duke of the State, and the next step was that he would also get the title of Duke of the State, so he couldn't wait any longer. time.
Good guy, the stage is set, you turn around and overturn the cooking pot.
Not only did he slap himself and Wu Xun in Beijing, but he also made His Majesty the Emperor lose face.
Shi Heng has always had smooth sailing these years, and he calls himself the emperor's favorite general outside. Now his beloved general has reached the point of rebellion. Doesn't this mean that the emperor has never been able to recognize people?
Li Xian, who had been silent for a long time, came out and said: "Your Majesty, Han Shangshu has acted decisively and should be able to prevent this matter. Your Majesty does not need to worry too much. Punishing Shi Heng is not a top priority. The most important thing to do now is , appease the morale of the army, and do not allow the Annan rebels to take advantage of it. I feel that it is a good idea for Han Shangshu to recommend Shi Biao to go to Annan. When Shi Biao went to Annan, he could gather the morale of the army and handle it properly. Shi Heng and other generals .”
After Zhu Jianshen listened to Li Xian's words, he immediately understood. Li Xian's implication was that regardless of whether Han Yong could capture Shi Heng or not, Shi Biao's trip to Annan must be arranged immediately.
Shi Heng won.
Shi Biao was going to comfort him and bring His Majesty the Emperor's words of comfort to Annan. biquge.biz
And if Han Yong wins, Shi Heng is imprisoned, and Shi Biao goes, he can also appease the generals who passed from Liaodong.
In this way, no matter what kind of outcome, the court can control the situation as soon as possible, so that Shi Heng will not really go to the point of no return.
He sighed and said, "Zhang Bao, summon Shi Biao to the capital. I want to see him."
"Yes, Your Majesty..." Zhang Bao, who was standing aside, responded quickly.
"Zhu Ji, get ready and go to Annan now. If Han Yong and others control Shi Heng, you will escort Shi Heng to Beijing. But if Shi Heng controls the situation, you will send Han Yong, Mu Zan and others Escorting them to Beijing cannot put their lives in danger..."
Zhu Jianshen still adopted Chen Ying's advice and used the safest method to handle this incident.
Whoever loses will be the sinner, and whoever loses will be escorted to Beijing by Zhu Ji.
Zhu Ji quickly received the order.
"Li Fuchen, Mr. Ning Guogong, in order not to cause unnecessary trouble, today's Shi Heng matter should not be spread to the outside world for the time being. After everything has settled, we will let all officials properly convict him."
The two people quickly took the order.
"Everyone, go down."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After finishing speaking, Li Xian, Chen Ying, and Zhu Ji walked outside.
Looking at the backs of the three people, Zhu Jianshen still found it difficult to accept the current result.
Shi Heng is like a powder keg.
He clearly knew that this guy would have problems sooner or later.
But I'm still thinking that it shouldn't explode so quickly.
If Shi Heng really killed Han Yong, Mu Zan and others, after this incident was over, regardless of whether Shi Heng rebelled or not, in order to maintain the majesty of the emperor and the laws of the court, the first thing Zhu Jianshen had to do was to issue an order Killing Shi Heng's whole family, and Shi Biao is bound to be implicated even if he is divided into two houses, and he will not be reused in the future.
The imperial court suddenly lost two generals capable of fighting...
This loss is also quite big.
At this time, Zhang Bao just gave a few instructions to the eunuch beside him, asking him to go to the Supervisor of Ceremonies and ask the eunuch Bingbi to write down an edict urging Shi Biao to enter the capital as soon as possible.
After the arrangements were made, Zhang Bao said to Zhu Jianshen: "Your Majesty, it's time to have your meal. I will serve you to have your meal..."
Zhu Jianshen glanced at Zhang Bao, but did not accept the meal request, but said to himself: "If I kill Shi Heng, can Shi Biao still be used?"
"Your Majesty, this servant doesn't understand this. However, Marquis Liaoping and Shi Heng are completely different people. He is sensible."
After Zhu Jianshen listened to Zhang Bao's words, his fingers kept tapping the imperial case, and he suddenly had an idea in his mind.
Shi Biao has rich combat experience and the ability to conduct large-scale military field operations. The most important thing is that Shi Biao is bloody, knows how to advance and retreat, and has a sense of proportion. This is two completely different people from Shi Heng.
From now on, the Northwest can compete with Mongolia. If the young Shi Biao is really allowed to go home to take care of his old age in his thirties, Zhu Jianshen will still be a little reluctant to give up.
But Zhu Jianshen couldn't let Shi Heng go for Shi Biao.
If he were alive.
As long as the military generals of the Ming Dynasty performed meritorious service, they would be deceitful and difficult to control themselves in the future. They could only follow the old path and push the civil servants to suppress military honors, but this is equivalent to taking a step back in history.
After Shi Heng did something like this, so many generals and so many martial arts disciples were watching. If he wanted to keep it secret and treat it coldly, he couldn't do it at all.
He must be punished.
He must die.
But how to die and how to die can be manipulated.
Shi Heng was an arrogant person, so killing him directly would make him feel happy.
If he were to fall from a high position to the lowest level all at once, and let him experience the ultimate gap in his life, he would simply not be able to accept his experience and would definitely commit suicide...
The wind on the island is a bit strong, so why not let Shi Heng, who considers himself the number one general in the court, be transferred to a small island to guard the island and serve as a pawn...
Zhu Jianshen also hoped that Shi Biao could understand his good intentions.
Of course, even so, when Shi Biao leads the army alone in the future, there will be more constraints and more supervisory troops around him.
The emperor cannot trust anyone...
