At the beginning of the civil castle, the Ming God of War was a little panicked

Chapter 448

After the three reached an agreement, they settled down and watched the changes.

The current situation is that the enemy can't move, I can't move, since the emperor's handling of this matter is strange, maybe he will do something wrong.

As long as there is any rash action, it may fall into the emperor's routine.

Sure enough, Wynn arrived just after he was on duty the next day.

"My lords, the emperor asked our family to ask, how is the discussion going?"

Cao Nai put on a lukewarm look, and said: "Eunuch Huai, you should be clear that the emperor's tour is the top priority of the imperial court, and must be treated with caution!"

With a smile on his face, Wynn said: "You should be cautious, but... Hurry up, or Qiqike in Mobei will be waiting in a hurry..."

"Just let her wait!"

At this time, Zhang Yi leaned over and said, "No matter where the emperor is visiting the world, he has to go through this process. Why does Mobeiwei have to treat him specially?"

The two cooperated very well, and they preempted the opening, leaving Wynn with nothing to say.

Wynn was no match for the two of them. He was defeated after a confrontation, and said bitterly, "Our family just came to ask, there is no other meaning."

Cao Nai and Zhang Yi looked at each other with a victorious smile on their faces.

"This matter is not that simple. In addition to the Ministry of Rites, it also involves the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Punishment. It must be discussed one by one before a decision can be made."

Wynn puzzled and said, "Why do we need so many yamen?"

Cao Nai said with a sullen face, "Safety is the top priority when the emperor is on patrol. What should we do if there are rebels and gangsters plotting to do something wrong and ambushing the emperor on the way in advance? The Ministry of War should be prepared in advance to deal with any emergencies. That’s what it means to be prepared.”

Wynn scratched his head after listening, and said: "The Ministry of War mobilizes troops and horses and prepares well. Our family can understand, but what about the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Punishment?"

Zhang Yi chuckled lightly and said: "The emperor is going on a tour, and there are guards, guards, grooms, and handymen... Counting at least a few hundred people, we have to mobilize troops and horses in advance to prepare for unexpected events. Such a large sum of money. Expenses, if the Ministry of Households does not allocate funds, you let everyone drink the northwest wind?"

Wynn forced a smile, and asked again: "The Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Punishment It shouldn't matter much, right?"

"How not?"

Zhang Yi shook his head and continued: "The emperor went to Mobei, does it depend on whether the implementation of the New Deal is smooth, the imperial court pays money to build workshops, repair roads and bridges... how are these projects completed, and whether there are any cut corners? Verification."

"As for the role of the Ministry of Officials, it is even more important. Whether the evaluation of the officials reported by Mobeiwei every year is reasonable, whether there is any fraud, how the local people's feedback on the officials is, whether there are unjust, false or wrongly decided cases, and the various measures issued by the imperial court. Whether the implementation is in place, this is a national event!"

"There is also the Ministry of Punishment. For local criminal and prison cases..."

"alright, alright!"

Wynn hurriedly waved his hand to interrupt, and said: "Our family understands that this matter needs to be discussed by the cabinet and the six ministries, but I don't know when will there be a conclusion?"

Zhang Yi's tone was very blunt, and he said, "It's hard to say!"

"Since that's the case, then... our family will go back and return first."

Wynn knew that there would be nothing to ask today, so he had to get up and leave.

Zhang Yi and Cao Nai cupped their hands perfunctorily: "No!"

After a while, Cao Nai asked softly, "Are you leaving?"

Zhang Yi came to the door, looked out with his head, turned back and said, "Let's go!"

Both of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. For some reason, they had a faint feeling of guilt.

Zhang Yi sighed, and said: "If the emperor finds out that I have made things difficult for you, I will definitely feel dissatisfied..."

Cao Nai glanced at him, and said helplessly: "Until we find out the real intention of the emperor, we can only do this, otherwise, when something happens, it will be very difficult to control."

Zhang Yi asked again: "But I don't know what kind of routine the emperor is playing?"

Cao Nai suddenly raised his head and looked out of the sky. After a long time, he slowly shook his head and said, "The most difficult road this old man has walked in this life is the emperor's routine..."

Early the next morning, Wynn came again.

Cao Nai and Zhang Yi had been prepared for a long time, and had already invited the left servant of the Ministry of War to come to discuss matters.

This posture seems to be telling Wynn, look, we are already advancing, do you still have the nerve to rush?
Of course Wynn knew it well, he just said a few words of courtesy and left.

For the next few days, every time Wynn came over, he saw the heads of the six departments discussing matters here.

Actually, Cao Nai and Zhang Yi were also waiting.

They deliberately slowed down the progress, just waiting for the emperor to lose his composure and take the initiative to reveal his intentions.

Only by knowing the emperor's true thoughts can he prescribe the right medicine.

Otherwise, accidentally fall into the emperor's routine again.

After seven or eight days like this, Wynn came to show his face every morning, but he didn't talk much or ask questions, just like coming to Wenyuan Pavilion to ask questions.

Such a situation made Cao Nai and Zhang Yi even more impatient.

"Why do I feel that the situation is not right..."

Looking at the back of Wynn going away, a thought suddenly flashed in Zhang Yi's mind, and he frowned.

Cao Nai asked, "What did you find?"

Zhang Yi bowed his head in thought for a moment, then raised his head and asked, "How many days has the emperor been away from court?"

Cao Nai thought for a while and replied, "About three days."

The current early dynasty has been changed and is divided into Shuo Wang Dynasty and Chang Dynasty.

Shuowang Dynasty refers to the grand court meeting on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, and all officials above the fourth grade in the capital are required to participate. On such an important occasion, Zhu Qizhen will definitely show up.

However, the daily routine is hard to say.

One day when you are in a good mood, come and show your face, which is mostly not seen on weekdays.

Three days ago, it was the Grand Court Meeting on November [-]th, with hundreds of officials gathered, and Zhu Qizhen was also present.

Cao Nai remembered it clearly because he was always worried that the emperor would ask about the tour at the court meeting. After all, it has been delayed for so long and there is no answer so far, so he feels a little sorry.

However, Zhu Qizhen didn't mention this matter, as if he had forgotten it.

Zhang Yi shook his head and sighed, "Not good, the emperor wants to slip!"

Cao Nai asked suspiciously, "What did you say?"

Zhang Yi stomped his feet anxiously, saying, "We've been tricked!"

Cao Nai was startled suddenly, as if he also thought of something.

"Could it be that the emperor deliberately waited to be rejected by us?"

"As it should be!"

Cao Nai couldn't sit still any longer, he got up and said, "Most people are useless, hurry up and see you!"

"go!"

When the two came to the imperial study room, but saw the door was open, doubts arose in their hearts.

Could it be... guess wrong?

Zhang Yi asked, "Are you still going?"

Cao Nai understood that if the emperor hadn't left and he came to the door recklessly, he must have an explanation.

At least on the matter of going on tour, it can no longer be delayed, and an explanation must be given.
