Jingming

Chapter 19

Yang Tinghe was thinking: Does Liang Chu know this thank you note?
Then he figured it out: that didn't matter anymore.

Yang Ting and Yang Ting also thought of the key question that Jiang Mian considered: Do you want to establish someone else?
He ruled out that option.Impossible, he knew very well that he couldn't do such a thing.

It's not that I can't do it, it's that I can't do it.Not only because of reputation, but also because Daming really can't stand the toss.

Since Yang Tinghe couldn't do it, it meant that the cabinet couldn't do the abolition.

With Emperor Zhengde's will, it is impossible for Empress Dowager Zhang to bypass the cabinet and appoint others alone.

Now there is only one choice: how to face the chosen heir.

Yang Tinghe felt aggrieved and tired: Sijun is so good at tossing around, such a good means...

He knew that it was Emperor Zhengde's Empress Xia who had arrived from the sound of ring peeping and footsteps behind the curtain.

One of the methods has already shown its effect: Empress Xia must not care how the new king messes with state affairs, she now has the hope of getting a son, this is the only thing she cares about.

The relationship between Queen Mother Zhang and Queen Xia is also delicate.The one who treats her most sincerely is actually this daughter-in-law.

Now that the emperor's plan is proposed, if Queen Mother Zhang disagrees, then the relationship between Queen Xia and Queen Mother Zhang will be greatly damaged—although Queen Xia's destructive power is pitifully small.

This means that Si Jun handed Yang Ting and them a step to persuade Queen Mother Zhang, and let their cabinet ministers avoid accusations of disloyalty to Emperor Zhengde: Look, the best of both worlds, Emperor Zhengde will also have a son in the future.

Or, if they oppose the successor's practice of laying mines for the future, then the bad guys will become cabinet ministers.

Why are you all against it?

But is it that simple?

"Graduate scholars, you have also read Your Highness' Xie Jian." Queen Mother Zhang really asked, "Now, is it abolished or established?"

Jiang Mian looked behind the curtain, why did you ask Empress Xia to come?
Do you want to throw the offending matter to the cabinet?
Hearing Queen Mother Zhang's question, Yang Tinghe felt bitter: Another method is to intensify the conflict.Empress Dowager Zhang's request is very clear, she wants mother and child status.Directly use the attitude of death and no successor to make the cabinet unable to step down in front of Queen Mother Zhang.At this moment, a solution must be found.

If it cannot be abolished, the cabinet must be replaced to persuade Queen Mother Zhang to accept the reality.

Yang Tinghe was in extreme pain, and when he raised his head, he was crying: "I am ashamed of the Xiao Temple, ashamed of my late emperor! Now that the edict has been promulgated in the world, it must not be revoked. It's just that your highness would rather die than inherit, and the ministers are ashamed of the queen mother, please The queen mother will punish."

After saying that, he took off his hat and crown, weeping uncontrollably.

I want to resign!
"At this moment, how can Mr. Ge hang up his crown and leave?" Empress Dowager Zhang was suddenly frightened and angry, and Yang Tinghe suddenly had an emotional breakdown, which made her lose her mind for a while in front of such a major event.

Yang Tinghe's tearful eyes were filled with indignation: "Everything in the world affects the whole body! Daqing has a hundred years of evils, and he has served as monarchs and ministers. Why don't you think of sinking and rejuvenating? There are so many political affairs in a big country, and it is inevitable that there is no way to start with just a passion. .Your Highness said that the ministers are following the old ways, and the admirals have been devoting themselves to reforming the past and trying to make new ones for more than a month?"

"Just because of this letter of thanks, people in the world only know that Your Highness is knowledgeable, ambitious, and worthy of a wise king. Even if there are extreme words, they are just youthful spirits, and they need to be taught by virtuous ministers. However, the ministers are the first to bear the brunt. Saying to set up another person, and refusing to name the name of the hero and the name of the traitor for the sake of power and position, will be stigmatized for thousands of years!"

He was very excited: "I can't do what Yihuo did, and I'm not a conservative person! A loyal minister is the country, so I will die to remonstrate with Your Highness for the future generations of the Ming Dynasty. Don't resort to violence and gossip. If Your Highness insists on going his own way, I will only If you have written a good dictionary, let His Highness send it to you. Minister, I am ashamed of the entrustment of the Emperor Daxing, I am ashamed of the Empress Dowager, and I am ashamed of the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty."

After saying these words in a sonorous tone, Yang Tinghe knelt down and kowtowed a few heads, then stood up and staggered out.

"Old Yang Ge? Master Yang!"

Yang Tinghe walked away as if emotionally broken, his beam crown was still on the ground, and Queen Mother Zhang couldn't call back no matter how much she shouted.

Now her panic and anger was covered with a layer of panic, and she could hear Yang Tinghe's words clearly: it can't be abolished, but why is the point of the words inside and outside the words to persuade him not to spoil the state affairs with passion?

What about succession?
She was so angry that she looked at Jiang Mian and Mao Ji again: "Jiang Shaofu, Mao Shaobao, how could Yang Taifu just leave like this?"

Jiang Mian and Mao Ji smiled wryly.

Yang Tinghe played a good show, but now it is really a headache.

Now he has to face not only the queen mother, but also the extreme heir, and the cabinet cannot be completely wiped out.

"With your highness's intelligence, I'm afraid that you already know that there are errors and omissions in the writing of the last edict, which can be used by him. If you don't send it out, you will receive the edict and arrive in Beijing on the grounds that you will enter the palace and press it when everything is ready. Your highness is tricky, first add a song The drafting of the edict was suspected of the ministers and others, and they blamed the ministers for hindering the late emperor's ambitions, and then reprimanded the ministers as being unfaithful to the emperor. Yang Ge was sad and angry for a while..."

Jiang Mian's first reply like this is actually expressing his inner grievances.

Empress Dowager Zhang immediately said: "I'm afraid this child has been deceived, and that's why he is so extreme. When Mr. Yang Ge played the right one, he said that he could persuade all the officials and make His Highness understand what people want. What do you think?"

Jiang Mian and Mao Ji looked at each other, and they all sighed: "Before the Xie Jian arrived, the ministers also thought so. Queen Mother, Your Highness is very firm, and I am afraid that you can't be persuaded. Before the Queen Mother, ask Abolition or establishment should be consistent with what the ministers think?"

"Then accept him like this?" Empress Dowager Zhang raised her voice a lot, "Then what should I do?"

Jiang Mian's tone was desolate: "As Jie Fu said, even though His Highness seems a bit extreme at the moment, it is true that His Highness is only fifteen years old, and he has a heart for the country and a desire to serve the Ming Dynasty forever. If there are good ministers to assist, His Highness will naturally be more wise in the future Ordinary people and fools only think that this is a wise king who has proposed the method of getting the best of both worlds."

"If the ministers appoint someone else because His Highness is determined not to be an heir, firstly, as Jiefu said, they are suspected of being greedy for power and position; secondly, if the new emperor appointed is not as good as His Highness, then it will be even more stupid. Thirdly, ...Even if there is a reason for the great ceremony, the ministers will eventually become power traitors who manipulate the big positions. The fame and affairs after death are small, and the old things of Jingnan will definitely reappear."

He didn't mention the queen mother, but now that everyone understands this truth, they can't help but change their colors.

That is to say, he can not be established, but in this way, because of the reason of succession or not, it will suddenly not be so tenable.

Now that the direct lineage is actually extinct, he is not only the most qualified of the common lineage, but also the one with the most potential to be a wise monarch, and he also proposed a plan to keep the direct lineage from becoming extinct.

If he is not established in this way, it seems that insisting on becoming an heir is just an excuse: at least ordinary people and people with ulterior motives would think so.

"You... you just backed down like this?" Queen Mother Zhang was also about to collapse, "What about my palace?"

Jiang Mian was silent.

"say something!"

Jiang Mian looked at Mao Ji, and let out a long sigh: "The matter has come to this, the old minister has the courage to speak out about the current situation."

He knelt down on the ground with a big gift, as if he was going to fight.

Yang Tinghe has to plan how to dissuade the heir in the more important state affairs strategy.Convincing the Queen Mother to let the matter of not succeeding become a bargaining chip for the cabinet ministers to negotiate with the heir can only be handed over to Jiang Mian and Mao Ji.

This is the tacit understanding that they have been officials in the same dynasty for many years.
