eldest son of Ming dynasty

Chapter 51 Who is the overall situation?

"The East Palace favors the recovery of the general. Please don't be disheartened and avoid officials by saying you are sick. Otherwise, the court will reason, how can you recommend a sick general? How can you entrust a critical commander to a critical border? The general only needs to recharge his energy and wait. When the time is auspicious, don’t listen, don’t believe, don’t rush and don’t be impatient. In addition, the Ming Dynasty’s frontiers are getting more and more troubled, and the palace is determined to make every effort to govern and prepare for war, so as to reproduce the appearance of the emperor Taizu and Taizong of the Ming Dynasty coming to the court! Please explain it in detail when you are in the field. The dangers of the frontier, the magic of the battle formation, written into a book, organized into a volume, for future generations to look up to..."

"Old He, where is the messenger?" Wang Yue suddenly got up and chased outside.

As a result, the butler said, "Master, he has already left."

Hearing this, Mr. Wang was so anxious that he jumped, "Oh, how could you let him go?!"

Wang Zhi didn't know who could make her grandfather react like this, so she hurriedly got up and searched for the letter to find out, "Grandpa, what's wrong?"

Wang Yue didn't hide anything from his granddaughter, "Look, it turned out to be a letter from the East Palace."

"East Palace?" Wang Zhi probably couldn't imagine why the East Palace suddenly brought it in, but she was shocked by the content: that His Highness, has already guessed her countermeasure?
But she probably didn't like the content, so she pursed her lips, even though Donggong was smart, but this was to let his grandfather take risks.

However, the old general Wang Yue was not calm like water at all. This letter was in his hand, and it was his long-cherished wish for many years, so he couldn't sit still or stand for a while.

"Zhi'er, do you think this is really a letter from the East Palace?"

Not to mention anything else, Old General Wang thinks this typeface is enough to make people laugh.

Wang Zhi's tender and smooth face seemed to be able to squeeze out water, even if she frowned and meditated, her beauty was not diminished.

"Tu Shangshu's letter explained the process of Li Guangzhi's death. If it wasn't for the crown prince, how could His Majesty decide to kill Li Guang?"

Wang Yue sighed, "The key point is the Empress Dowager Zhou. I don't know how that old fool made the Empress Dowager Zhou dissatisfied with him."

Things in the palace are secret, and they have no way of knowing these reasons.

"No matter what, Li Guang's death is partly due to the crown prince. Why did the crown prince send this letter at this time?"

Wang Yue couldn't figure it out for a moment, "No, I have to write back to Donggong to find out. Otherwise, I'm really in a difficult situation."

Wang Yue is anxious,
He's a backer down,

Suddenly another one pops up, so I have to catch it no matter what.

But grandson Wang Zhi stopped him, "Grandpa can't."

"What's wrong with that?"

The little girl's thin, tender and rosy lips parted slightly, revealing a row of white teeth, "In this dynasty, the East Palace has a very special position, and the crown prince holds a very important position in His Majesty's heart. If what Grandpa thinks is easy, the one who came today It is not a letter, but an imperial decree."

Wang Yue's heart turned cold, doesn't that mean there are still variables?
"All the ministers in the court want to take advantage of Li Guang's affairs to clear their careers and organize the court, and there will be a lot of open and secret struggles. Therefore, the prince is sure that we may be sick..." At this point, the girl's eyebrows fell again, "With such a mind , must have made all the preparations, so grandpa don’t need to worry, this matter will definitely have a result. It’s just that the situation is inevitable, once things fail, grandpa can think of a way out? At that time, Donggong will not be able to make a sound, even if he wants to Trying my best to save Grandpa, I can only deal with it impartially. Now I have sent a letter, but it has been confirmed."

Wang Yue thought about it for a while, but he just felt itchy.

"But Donggong is the master, and I am the subject. Donggong's letter like this is straightforward. If we watch the fire from the other side, we can't hide our thoughts. Even if Donggong loses this time, Donggong is still Donggong. Grandpa Ni, I will climb his lintel later, How can you climb it?"

Wang Zhizhen didn't know what to say, she was 72, and she was considering becoming an official later...

She has persuaded her many times that there is no need to talk about these things at this time, and it is better to think about how to deal with it. After all, if Donggong's kindness is ignored, it is indeed inappropriate.

Suddenly, a light flashed in her heart.

"Writing a book!" Pingting's figure suddenly turned around.

"Writing a book?"

"Grandpa, look, the letter from the East Palace has already said, let grandpa sort out the situation at the border and the experience of many years of marching and fighting in detail. This matter does not need to be involved in the court situation? And... if the crown prince is successful, this book belongs to grandpa Credit; if the crown prince fails, this book is also my grandfather's heart, and the crown prince will not feel jealous."

Wang Yue clapped his hands, wonderful!
"It's just..." For some reason, Wang Zhi's heart suddenly jumped. There shouldn't be such a thoughtful person, right?
"Just what?"

Wang Zhi inherited Wang Yue's tall and straight features, and the girl's family developed early, and now she is also slender, and she can learn from others.

She looked at the prince's letter again, and couldn't help biting her lips, "Could it be... Could it be that when Donggong wrote the letter, he already expected that my grandfather and I would have such thoughts today? Otherwise, why did you suddenly ask a general to write a book?"

"Tsk." Wang Yue was not very satisfied with his granddaughter's words, and said proudly, "Your grandfather, I am a Jinshi!"

……

……

Because the weather was too cold, it already made people feel uncomfortable, so the prince ordered someone to bring a charcoal basin.

While rubbing his hands to warm himself by the fire, he frowned and meditated again and again.

His face was a little red from the hot charcoal fire.

I don't know if it's baked or gasped.

He originally thought that Tu Yu was just an exception, but he didn't expect that there were quite a few people who gave money to Li Guang.Therefore, it is better to listen less and believe less about those "national justice" words in the court.

Opposite the charcoal basin is Wang Jia.

Since the prince's attitude is important, he naturally did his part to come.

As Elder Xu Ge said, he didn't come to be a lobbyist, he just wanted to know what the prince thought.

Of course, according to his character, he would not tell lies, but just conveyed the old man's words and the worries in them.

"Mr. Wang is a sincere person, and there must be no false rumors." Zhu Houzhao's tone was faint, but from the beginning to the end, his eyes actually changed—Xu Pu was really old.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your trust!"

"I trust you, why do I need to thank you?" The prince's words really made Wang Jia feel at ease, "But I want to ask, since Mr. Ge and Mr. Wang have such worries, why do they still have to oppose the father and not choose Wang Yue? What about the general as the commander-in-chief of the Trilateral?"

"Returning to Your Highness. After Li Guang's death, too many people avoided him. Even if Wang Yue was elected, the situation in the court would probably be unfavorable to General Wang Yue, and even more unfavorable to the situation in the northwest."

This is bullshit, and a good reason for what civil servants are saying now.It sounds very reasonable at first glance, but the key is whether it is feasible not to send Wang Yue?

The country's best-skilled generals are all at the border, but the border is defeated every month, and now Wang Yue is not dispatched because of the situation of the court. Isn't this just leaving useful people alone!
Moreover, what is the situation in the court, isn't it just you guys?

So Zhu Houzhao will not be satisfied with this answer.

"A suitable general can't be sent there. It will be passed down to future generations. I don't know whether it is our Zhu family father and son, or the ministers of the court. It is ridiculous."

Wang Jia heard that his butt was off the bench, and he didn't dare to sit any longer.

Fortunately, Zhu Houzhao gestured, "I'm not talking about Mr., don't worry too much. As I said before, Mr. Wang is a sincere person who treats me sincerely and everyone in the world with sincerity, so I won't hide it from Mr. Wang. The palace belongs to General Wang Yue."

After hearing this, Wang Jia felt mixed feelings in his heart. If this is the case, there must be some disturbances!

"Your Highness?!"

Zhu Houzhao is not afraid to say this,
In fact, he is the only one in the court to say this, otherwise the reasoning and momentum would be one-sided, and there would be nothing to talk about.

Although Tu Yu and the others would also support Wang Yue, they were Li Guang's 'disciples' in the first place. With Li Guang dead, it was difficult to form a resistance!

That being the case, then the prince will use this momentum!

"Your Highness." Wang Jia knelt down, "I dare you to enlighten me, Your Highness. Why is there such a difference in your Highness's attitude before and after? What is your Highness's plan?"

"I'm not using any powerful schemes. I only have one belief: In this world, I don't want to do what pleases relatives and enemies. Press Wang Yue's appointment. Do you think the happiest thing is that the court opposes Li Guang?" Gentleman? No, it is the Tatars who harmed the northwest! After thousands of years, I don’t want future generations to scold us for being incompetent and immoral when they read this history. Dust!"

"Xu Shoufu is right, don't persuade me. Don't kneel down, go back. You don't have to help me with this matter, but I want you not to object. From now on, it won't affect your coming out of the court or entering the prime minister."

"Your Highness's words have broken my humble minister."

The Crown Prince said nothing more.

Wang Jia also left.

Zhu Houzhao in front of the charcoal basin seemed to have no expression.
After a long time, he finally said what he had said in his heart before, "Xu Pu is really old too."

Liu Jin replied while adding charcoal, "Your Highness, what did you hear?"

"As the chief of the cabinet, he is like an angry daughter-in-law. Father-in-law and mother-in-law are not easy to serve. He dare not refuse to be invited by hundreds of officials, and his father has to take care of him. And it is the time when he is old and retired. Well, he probably didn't want to get involved in these things in his original intention. Let you write the resignation letter, after all, you have paid this job, anyway, the father will not want his life. "

With the idea of ​​retreating in my heart, I naturally have no intention of making progress.But both sides and muddy mud, that is, both sides are not satisfied.But ordinary people can't understand the meaning of trying to hide from it at all, and think that Mr. Xu is fighting for the country with his old life.
"His Highness's words always hit the nail on the head. To be honest, the slaves didn't think that much."

While talking, Zhang Yong also came in.

Zhu Houzhao didn't say much, and handed him a note in his hand, "I have already greeted the father and the supervisor of ceremonies, you go to ask for some people from Dongchang. Take the few days to go to the school. Give me a feel for the background of the ministers who opposed it, especially Hu Guimin, the censor of the Shaanxi Province!"

This person has his name on the ledger.

"Yes!"

Say it's bad for the overall situation?Then see who is the overall situation and who is not good.
