Lonely non-good minister

Chapter 415 Make him stupid

Song Chun didn't like hearing this at all. Why did he need Emperor Hongming to teach him this truth?

Except for Song Run, Song Fu, and Song Yuan, the other brothers have been suppressed by him and there is no possibility of turning around. The three remaining brothers are all people with outstanding abilities and can help him. If they are to be guarded against the three of them, , then wouldn’t he be a loner?
Thinking about Emperor Hong Ming's situation, Song Chun had no intention of listening to him. Although several uncles had left early, he didn't see Emperor Hong Ming getting along well with anyone when he was alive. To put it bluntly, he was suspicious, suspicious and willful, and his own The relationship between brothers was in a mess, and his future was entirely supported by his own brothers before he could sit on the throne. His experience was of no reference at all.

When he arrived at Taihua Hall, Emperor Hongming got off the chariot and said, "I heard that Song Fu asked for credit for Song Yuan?"

"The person who made the firearms was recommended by Yuan'er, so the fifth brother asked for credit for Yuan'er." Song Chun knew that he was going to pick on Song Yuan'er again.

Sure enough, Emperor Hong Ming's face darkened: "As a prince, he doesn't do his job properly and always interacts with these unscrupulous people. Although the firearms are good, they cost a lot. In my opinion, before the combat power of the Wei army has been raised, the treasury will be exhausted." It’s going to be hollowed out.”

When he mentioned the treasury, Song Chun knew that he was still unhappy about not being able to spend money wantonly.

Those young concubines tried their best to invite favors, not for the sake of wealth and glory and the future of their mother's family. Now they can't get anything, and Emperor Hongming, who can't show off in front of the beauty, is naturally filled with anger.

Song Chun didn't speak. He was too lazy to discuss these obvious issues with Emperor Hongming. He also couldn't figure out why Emperor Hongming would be so short-sighted and stupid after he ascended the throne. The smart and steady father when he was young seemed to be dead and could not be found except for his skin. Not even remotely similar.

After entering the Taihua Hall, Emperor Hongming threw the good news in his hand on the dragon table. Several ministers who came in with him were slightly shocked, but they did not react much. Song Chun also stood aside quietly. His face was numb and cold.

"You dispatched troops and horses privately, and you still have the nerve to ask for credit from the court?" Emperor Hong Ming's face was dark, and he glanced at the ministers sitting down, and then he noticed a few more unfamiliar faces: "What do you do?"

Song Chun then said unhurriedly: "Father, I don't know. Several adults retired and returned to their hometowns a few years ago. For this reason, there were changes in the officials in the court. As a result of the transfer, the ministers have been sent to the palace for several months. "

Emperor Hongming opened his mouth but could not speak. He was playing with a group of young concubines in the palace and practicing the art of immortality with the great witch Zhiyan. It had been a long time since he had seen the information sent by the palace.

"I have an impression." Emperor Hong Ming added perfunctorily.

Several ministers who had little contact with him were a little surprised, and one person boldly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, our commander-in-chief stationed on the border has the privilege of dispatching troops and horses independently. Moreover, the Huns have repeatedly provoked, and the imperial court has also given instructions to fight back. "

He spoke for Song Fu, and Emperor Hong Ming was immediately annoyed. He glanced over and glared fiercely. The minister who spoke was so frightened that his heart skipped a beat and he quickly shut up.

"I can't stand even a small provocation, how can it be a big deal?" Emperor Hong Ming scolded, and while his anger continued, he turned to Song Chun and hesitated for a moment, then moved away and said: "How long has the northwest been peaceful? After this If we take action, years of stability will be destroyed."

This made some honest people think that he did not see the victory clearly. Song Fu used firearms, and the casualties of the Wei Dynasty were almost zero. Moreover, the war was far away from the mainland of the Wei Dynasty, and had no impact on the stability of the northwest. On the contrary, the captives Tens of thousands of people have effectively solved the problem of insufficient population in the northwest.

But seeing that several senior ministers had no intention of speaking, they could only swallow all these words. "The coach's privilege of deploying troops independently is a hidden danger. If he uses it for personal use instead of a war, it will be even more ulterior. If this reward is generous and other coaches follow suit in the future, what prestige will the imperial court have? What prestige will I have? ?" Emperor Hongming became more and more confident as he spoke.

Song Chun still looked indifferent. Dealing with government affairs every day had exhausted him mentally and physically. He really didn't want to waste energy telling Emperor Hong Ming why the Wei coach had the privilege of dispatching troops independently.

"Your Majesty." The imperial censor couldn't stand listening anymore: "The Wei Dynasty has a vast territory, with a large span from east to west, north to south, and the transmission of news can take as little as ten days or as long as twenty days. The situation on the battlefield changes rapidly. If the commander of one side does not have the privilege of dispatching troops independently, , waiting for the news to be sent back to Jingzhao for discussion before sending troops will only delay the war opportunity."

Someone actually told him why, but it was the imperial censor who told him why. Emperor Hong Ming's temper suddenly became stuck.

He himself was born in the army, how could he not know why?Is his purpose to question the privilege of deploying troops independently?He was questioning whether Song Fu would be rebellious!Couldn't any of this group of people understand what he meant?
The Taihua Hall became quiet for a moment, and no one stepped forward to answer the question.

No one would respect an emperor who was stupid and mean and did nothing but stir up trouble, especially if the other party handed over the power to the prince, so what if he sat on the throne?He's just a decent puppet.

Emperor Hong Ming's expression was really unbearable: "In a few months, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver were spent on making firearms. How many firearms were sent to Jingzhao?"

He changed the subject, and then the minister in charge spoke up: "If I return to the emperor, after the first batch of firearms is completed, twenty firearms will be sent to Jingzhao."

"Twenty pieces?" Emperor Hong Ming immediately shouted: "If you throw out a few hundred thousand taels of silver, you can get back twenty firearms?"

The minister hesitated for a moment. The war was mainly in the northwest. It was impossible to send a large number of firearms back to Jingzhao. Twenty pieces of firearms were sent back to Jingzhao, which was two of each kind. This way, the court knew where the money was spent. Okay. Keep a record and make a record. It is useless to give too much.

"Now that all the troops, horses and firearms are in the northwest, I feel uneasy." Emperor Hongming knew that they were pretending to be stupid, so he simply made it clear.

Only then did Song Chun speak out: "Father, my fifth brother only thinks about Wei. My father is so suspicious of him because of some evil words made by the imperial master. I feel sorry for my fifth brother."

He directly revealed that Emperor Hong Ming had asked the great witch Zhiyan to perform divination. The minister who was already dissatisfied with the great witch Zhiyan immediately understood why Emperor Hong Ming targeted Song Fu like this, and he couldn't help but feel more and more disappointed with Emperor Hong Ming.

"Your Majesty, how can we believe the National Master's monstrous words to deceive the public? The wizards in southern Xinjiang are messing with us. The Wei Dynasty has learned from past mistakes. I hope Your Majesty will think twice."

They were no longer silent, but Emperor Hong Ming was a little panicked. He knew that insisting on establishing a national preceptor would damage his power. It would be even more disrespectful if officials knew that he questioned his own son because of the divination of the national preceptor. There will be people loyal to him.
