eldest son of Ming dynasty

Chapter 103
If Liu Jian is upright, then Li Dongyang is his opposite.

When Liu Jian saw a villain or someone with a bad reputation, he flicked his sleeves and looked up without looking at others.Li Dongyang will take care of the face between people and make some polite exchanges without violating the principles.

Except for the matter of studying, Liu Jian and Zhu Houzhao had an argument, and Liu Jian rarely talked nonsense about other matters.But he is not someone who doesn't say anything, so if he doesn't say anything, he has nothing to say.

But Li Dongyang will be different, he will consider the overall situation.

Just like this time.

Li Dongyang came to persuade him earnestly, all he said was that he hoped that the prince would put the overall situation of the court first.

Zhu Houzhao was sitting on the throne of the crown prince, and he suddenly thought of something: "At the beginning, when the Palace was going to appoint Wang Yue as the chief officer of the three sides, someone also said so, saying... that Wang Yue was used, and Li Guangliu's poison was not enough. Except, it is not good for the overall situation. Mr. Li Ge, you are a person of great knowledge, can you explain to me what the overall situation is?"

Li Dongyang said: "The rise and fall of a country depends on the unity of the monarch and ministers. If the monarch and ministers are in harmony, the country will prosper, and if the monarch and ministers doubt, the country will decline. The overall situation mentioned by the ministers is not to whitewash the peace and seek temporary stability, but to hope that your highness will maintain the monarch and ministers." It fits the overall situation.”

Zhu Houzhao stood up,
Ge Lao speaks differently.

This sentence is not right or wrong about this incident...

What he meant, intuitively speaking, is because you, Zhu Houzhao, have done it so many times. If this continues, it will destroy the good relationship between Emperor Hongzhi and us!
After hearing this, Zhu Houzhao finally understood why Li Dongyang came to see him in such a hurry.

To a certain extent, his level of thinking is also not low, and he is worthy of the name of the old man.

That Cheng Minzheng is obviously inferior to him in politics.

"Li Ge is always a person who can see clearly. Don't you know why that An Xiangbo went to college at this time?"

Li Dongyang replied firmly: "It is the duty of a courtier to advise and advise. Your Highness has done something wrong, and the courtier should correct it!"

Zhu Houzhao didn't know if he really didn't know,
He still knew, but in order to maintain the so-called overall situation in his heart, he chose not to know.

In any case, if such an answer is spoken, the attitude is not acceptable to Zhu Houzhao, so he can't listen to this persuasion.

"Don't worry, Mr. Li Ge, I have never been a radical person. There are all kinds of evils in the world, and I will never be clean overnight. I don't want to be clean overnight. But they don't allow me to do anything, and I'm afraid it won't work."

"At your highness's age, you should have time to make long-term plans. Why are you so anxious? None of the important officials in the court can delay your highness. If things are slow, things will be smooth. If it doesn't work for a while, it doesn't mean it won't work for a lifetime."

Zhu Houzhao's complexion changed a bit, can't he just for a while?
It was as if they had already decided what to do with him as a prince.

"Elder Ge is right, but I don't accept it in my heart." He said this with firm force, "This palace is for the people of Ming Dynasty, and it is for the corrupt officials who have no morals. If you do such a thing, you will get a temporary tolerance." The result, why?"

"Your Highness, governing a country is an extremely important matter, not a rivalry between emotions. How can you say why or not?"

"Speak! Must speak!" Zhu Houzhao did not accept his statement, "Mr. Ge will pretend that I don't cry when I see the coffin. At least I want to see who wants me to concentrate on studying and not to ask about political affairs."

Right, even if you lose, you can't surrender before you start.

Li Dongyang said that at this level, he has nothing else to do.No matter what, he must maintain this overall situation.

All this also seems to indicate that some kind of ending is inevitable.

Seeing the Prince's gesture, the Kandao spokesperson in Beijing couldn't help it even more, so he even brought his advice on leaving the palace!

So the court hall, which had been quiet for a few days, became lively again.

However, the excitement is the excitement, facing the emperor's only prince, what they do is the key.

After all, staying in one memorial is staying, and staying in ten is also staying.

Cheng Minzheng and others went to Li Dongyang's residence again.

They are all worried that the final situation will be out of hand.

"The East Palace... is always the East Palace, and everyone present here cannot change this." Mr. Li Ge spoke disrespectfully, as if he already had a plan in mind, "I am even more powerless to stop the East Palace from doing things, and I think His Highness is also the same." I have taken a fancy to this point, so I have nothing to fear. However... His Highness depends on his courtiers in order to succeed. Now His Highness's foundation is still shallow, and there are only a few people in general. Therefore, it is not impossible to stabilize the overall situation of the court. Method."

"Cut its wings!" Cheng Minzheng blurted out, he didn't even have to wait for Li Dongyang to finish speaking.

Once the wings are cut, no matter how hard it is, that is, going out of the palace to play, Yu Chaotang's influence will not be great.

For example, in the matter of Wang Yue, it was Wang Jia's "rebellion before the battle", and in the case of seizing the land, it was Yang Tinghe who tried his best to cooperate. Without these two people, it would not be so easy for the East Palace to achieve its goal.

but……

"But you have to bear the responsibility..."

Everyone understands what Li Dongyang said.

This is also the reason why Mr. Li Ge never mentioned these four words.

This method... the one who takes the lead is especially easy to be hated.

The prince is still a prince now, but will he become the emperor in the future?

When the time comes to settle accounts after autumn, it will be thunderous anger.

So for a while, everyone hesitated.

"Ge Lao," Qian Gui, the imperial censor of Zuoqian capital, saw the behavior of the women in the circle, and felt excited for a moment, and said, "The Eastern Palace is becoming more and more paranoid, and His Majesty's favor is getting worse. If it takes a little longer, Your Majesty will I'm afraid I won't listen to those of us who are courtiers. Just like the matter of King Qi and King Yong, why did His Majesty change his mind? Apart from Your Highness, who else in the world can do it? From this point of view, some things have to be done, Otherwise, it will be difficult to control the state affairs. At this time, how can we only consider personal safety, if you are inconvenient, I, Qian Gui, would like to come here!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, ouch, the censor is the censor after all, this insight and courage are indeed different from ordinary people.

Even Cheng Minzheng suddenly felt admiration for Qian Gui.

Li Dongyang raised his arms, with a serious face, and saluted Qian Gui: "I heard that Qian Min was loyal and ambitious, and now I know that this is true. The state has adjudicated officials, and the people are very fortunate! Qian Gong , worthy of my gift!"

Qian Gui was taken aback, no... I just want to express, you, the boss, don't take the lead, you expect us to accomplish such a big matter?
"The gentleman is benevolent and the minister is straight. Qian Minzhi has the demeanor of an ancient gentleman!"

"Duke Qian, accept my worship!"

Cheng Minzheng stroked his beard and laughed, "Your Highness has a strong character, but he doesn't know that the hardest thing in the world is the bones of a literati. In this way, why worry about things failing?!"

"Wang Ji and Wang Ji are one of the gentlemen of the time. On the contrary, Yang Tinghe, when he was out of the East Palace to give lectures, he wanted to be alone with His Highness. In my opinion, he can't be too cheap!"

Hearing this sentence, Qian Gui was even more dumbfounded. This...why did they start discussing the next step? !
