eldest son of Ming dynasty

Chapter 122 Life and death are determined by destiny and wealth!

Zhan Shifu Zuo Chunfang Zuo Yude Li Min was thrown to Nanjing, Zhang Tianrui succeeded him, and Fei Hong succeeded Zhang Tianrui You Zhongyun.

This is the person recommended by Zhang Tianrui and the prince before.At that time, Zhu Houzhao did not activate it immediately, and he was still spending time in Zhan Shifu.

This time it is considered to be a chance for him, and at the same time promote young officials.

He was promoted together with Yang Ting and Zuo Zhongyun, who were also officials of Zhan Shifu. Jin Gui, who was editor and school book, was 35 years old at the time.

Jin Gui also joined the cabinet in the later Zhengde court, and his character, in today's terms, is that kind of little transparent person in the unit.

Life is simple and silent.He is quiet in heart and quiet in action. If a censor visits him, he doesn't like to respond. Anyway, he just does his own thing. If there are many people who oppose me, he will resign and return to his hometown to study. That's what he did later.

But he also has his own views, which is to promote elegance and oppose flashy.

It is not easy to have such an original intention in Vanity Fair.After Zhu Houzhao heard about it, he still mentioned this person to his side.

At the same time, You Yude Wang Hua went to Shandong to take office, and the chief envoy was a high-ranking official, at least in the eyes of Jiao Fang, the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple.

Seeing the officials of the Prince's Mansion getting great use one by one, he also started to feel itchy. After the arrival of the Tatar mission, the relationship between Honglu Temple Minister Zhou Du and the Prince seemed to be at odds, which made him feel that he had a chance. If you are not sure, you will be able to 'promote in a different place'.

Moreover, the prince now needs a voice to speak for him in the hall.

Because after the reorganization of the army, there was an uproar in the court, and the loudest voice of opposition was Ma Wensheng, Minister of the Ministry of War.

In fact, the situation has evolved in this way. Those who are already high-ranking officials don't have much to offer him, while those with lower positions want to climb up.And young people are more driven and tend to make a difference.

Zhu Houzhao's recent frequent mobilization of officials is actually to give such a signal.

After the reorganization of the army, there was a big controversy in the court immediately.

Shangshu didn't work anymore, and he was kept by the emperor when he arrived in the palace.

Therefore, officials such as Ma Wensheng and Wu Kuan complained face to face in the early court,

When Zhu Houzhao was still studying in the Wenhua Palace, a young eunuch came to tell him that there was a lot of noise in Fengtian Palace.

He used the word 'noisy', so he didn't panic,

If there is a quarrel, it is natural that some people agree with it and some people oppose it. It is no longer a one-sided situation in the business, so why worry about it?
Ma Wensheng, Minister of the Ministry of War, is wearing a red robe. He is also an old minister with high prestige. When he came up, he said that the crown prince showed that the court was preparing troops in front of Dayan Khan's three sons. Isn't this just inspiring others to beat you?Isn't this putting the people of the world in danger for the sake of one's own will?
Then some officials retorted, "His Royal Highness is the heir apparent of Ming Dynasty. Naturally, he wants to show off my martial arts. The imperial government's strategy of reorganizing the army is upright. Why can't it be shown to others? Could it be that if His Highness doesn't mention it, the Tatars themselves won't see it?!"

Fights and quarrels like this lasted for a long time, and as time passed, they became more intense.

At this time, something called "Ming Pao" began to appear in the capital, and it began to publish some national policies of the imperial court, such as reorganizing the army, from imperial decrees, to goals, to mobilization, and a systematic article was listed.

Although it is not allowed to discuss state affairs indiscriminately, everyone knows that the prince is behind it.

So no one is going to attack this one.

The civilian group is very alert to this, they have been pushed too hard recently.

"His Royal Highness is very proficient in using this method. No matter what you do, you must first occupy the righteousness. For example, the school is for the poor people, and the army is for the imperial court. Thus……"

In fact, the recent effect has already appeared, that is, people like Jiao Fang are ready to move.

Wu Kuan and Cheng Minzheng said: "Many officials in the DPRK began to lean towards the crown prince. The reason is that the crown prince relieved them of the worries of speculators. Whether it is a school or an army, it is for the country and the people. , but you and I both know how many villains among them are considering their own advancement? If things go on like this, the court will be occupied by villains."

How did he know that Zhu Houzhao's standard is not a gentleman and a villain. When Hongzhi said that he used many upright ministers, what happened?It's not that there are a large group of people who deceive the top and the bottom, and are greedy for ink, and the country's political ecology is not much better.

Sometimes ecology forces good people to become bad people.The civil service system of the Ming Dynasty forced everyone to become "moral models", and in the end it was easy to become only moral, not exemplary.If it is further inferred, there will be a large number of officials whose words and deeds are not in line with the way of a saint, so I will quit.

How does this allow Zhu Houzhao to govern the country?

He doesn't need the 'Confucius' of the Manchu Dynasty, he needs a good official.

And if you can't do a good job, it doesn't mean that you can't be punished.

Yang Tinghe was reprimanded last time.

After all, he is more practical.Of course, it is not certain whether the king of later generations can imitate.

So Wu Kuan's worry is not completely unreasonable, and Cheng Minzheng doesn't think it is difficult to understand, but he is just worried, "The plot of the Eastern Palace usually has advances and retreats. If we want to stop it, I am afraid it will be difficult."

"That's why we can't procrastinate like this any longer. I think we need to unite with Da Sima (another name for the Minister of War) and colleagues in the court and China to come up with a big remonstrance!" Wu Kuan thumped the table violently.

The so-called scholarly rebellion will fail in three years.

These people also boiled frogs for the prince in warm water to get to where they are today. Anyway, there are people who object to many things, but the prince is still doing it.

The emperor is such a precious son, how far can he oppose it?

Originally, there was a way, which was to keep an eye on the people around the prince. The first time was Zhang Yong, who managed to save the prince. Later, it was Yang Tinghe. Now Qian Guiren is gone, and Li Dongyang is being impeached every day.

So now this method is not only ineffective, but the officials of the prince's mansion are getting stronger and stronger, and it is estimated that in a few years, these people will not be able to speak a word.

At this moment, Ma Wensheng, Wu Kuan and others must unite together. In addition, they also gathered the Inspectorate Capital Censor Shi Dashan, Honglu Temple Minister Zhou Du, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment Bai Ang, Minister of Industry Xu Guan, and the Ministry of Household Affairs. Shang Shu Zhou Jing, Shang Shu Xu Qiong of the Ministry of Rites,

Among the six ministries, Tu Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, did not agree because Li Guang had a bad relationship with some of them.

These people discuss matters together every day, and a word spreads out, which makes everyone make up their minds.

Zhu Houzhao also has these words on his desk:
Judging from the words and deeds of the East Palace, he must be the master of raising troops and fighting in the future.The purpose of the Tatar mission this time is to withdraw the power of the Ministry of War to command the troops, so as to facilitate the deployment of troops in the future.Once things are done, the war of the country or not will be entirely between the emperor's likes and dislikes, so that one day, the change of civil castles will reappear in the world.

"Your Highness..." Liu Jin also felt that there seemed to be a lot of movement by the civil servants this time, so she was also sweating for the prince.

But Zhu Houzhao did not have too much worry about this, because he firmly believed that what he did was correct, and he wanted to lead Daming to achieve a real ZTE. No matter how many people opposed him, he would not doubt himself.

As for the means, the civil servants are nothing more than crying.

But there is one thing he doesn't want, he doesn't want to bear the name of a faint king, because it is not conducive to doing things, and he doesn't want to hurt the hearts of scholars all over the world.

"Call them to come." Zhu Houzhao said he knew all the news he had spied on, and his thoughts were on both sides, one north and the other south.

To the south is this Han Ziren...

It was the first time he saw Yang Tinghe mentioning this person.

"Let Yang Tinghe go to Beijing once, and bring the magistrate of Leshan with him."

"Yes."

"That Mao Yuwen..." Zhu Houzhao rubbed his fingers, "Let me know immediately if there is any news. His job is not easy, and I want to see how he will do it."

Mao Yuwen was very anxious in Datong. On the one hand, he was worried that he would anger Donggong if he hesitated here, and on the other hand, he was afraid that the general soldier of Datong Town would arrest him and chop him up.

Fortunately, a few days later, Jingli's letter finally arrived.

As soon as the envelope was opened, he jumped excitedly, "Work!"

This time, Xu Jie from Jinyiwei Baihu also came with the letter. He also knew the rumors about Nanning Bo, so he guessed in his heart that this person in front of him would surely skyrocket in the future, so he listened to Mao Yuwen's orders more.

"Arrest people today?"

Mao Yuwen's slender eyes narrowed again, "Xu Baihu, we can't think too easily about this matter. There are people in this world who will wait for you to come and arrest him, and will not resist? If His Highness is here, we will naturally With an open fire and a knife, no one dares to say 'no', but you and I are different."

"Could it be that they still dare to resist the order?!" Xu Jie was a little disbelieving.

"Hey, you don't need to use your own knife to kill people. They can borrow Tatar's knife. When the time comes, they will say that it was the Tatar who did it. Our heads will fall to the ground and we will no longer be able to speak."

"Then... what should we do? Capture them secretly?"

"Yes. But you have to make sure everything is safe. In case there is any omission and there is trouble, the relationship between these big families and the government is unclear. Can you make sure that they will definitely stand by our side?"

"Then... to borrow the power of the general army of Datong?"

"Borrow?" Mao Yuwen thought about this suggestion carefully, and it was somewhat similar to what he thought in his heart, but he always felt that something was wrong, "Borrowing is always a little soft, and it can't scare people. If no one just finds a reason to shirk it? It’s not that I don’t want to borrow it, what shall we say?”

Xu Jie thought about it, "Probably not. This is what the prince meant."

"Since it's the prince's intention, why don't you just order him to cooperate with us?" Mao Yuwen said a bold idea, which he had thought about for a long time, "Xu Baihu, you think, first of all, we can't arrest people rashly. The big family has a deep background, and all of them are guarded by servants, once the knife is used, not to mention that our brothers' lives are in danger, if it is heard in the ears of His Highness, we will think that we are not thinking about things."

After much deliberation, he decided to be ruthless, "Damn it, don't do anything! Tomorrow, we will ride tall horses to the General Military Mansion! Jin Yiwei is the emperor's pro-army, and I have a letter from the Eastern Palace, which is to order Datong General The soldiers act according to the imperial court's will! We must beat the gongs and drums, and the whole city must know about it! At that time, if we make any mistakes, let the general soldier of Datong explain to the imperial court by himself! If he doesn't do it, he will have to worry about His Highness and the Emperor How to see him!"

Xu Jie fainted when he heard that, you are just a cell boss!It's too daring!

"The General Soldier of Datong is a second-rank official of the imperial court! If you come to the door like this, I'm afraid he will be hacked directly!"

"I know what you said. But the prince's will wants me to wait for the big deal, which is to arrest all the people involved in the case. If he doesn't take action, what should we do?"

Having said that, he felt guilty when the fox pretended to be the tiger to such an extent. He could only forcefully show his teeth, and even laughed a little crazy, "Life and death are determined by fate! Brother, how about fighting with me?!"

　Can I ask for a monthly pass?
