Wanli 1592

Chapter 264 The ministers counterattacked extremely violently

From his arrival in Liaodong in August of the 20th year of Wanli until his return to Daming at the end of March in the 21st year of Wanli, Xiao Ruxun spent eight months ending a war that had been fought intermittently for five or six years in another time and space. It meant the first failure of Japan's mainland policy and the complete bankruptcy of its aggression plan. Daming maintained its authority and status, and showed the world that it was still the powerful and invincible kingdom of heaven.

There are three main purposes of Xiao Ruxun's leading this war, one is to frustrate Japan's wolf ambitions, one is to drive away tigers and wolves, so as not to make Jianzhou Weinu become bigger in vain, and one is to resolve the battle as soon as possible so that Daming does not suffer too much loss; Xiao Ruxun had perfectly achieved the two strategic goals, and it didn't make Da Ming fall into the quagmire of war like before. For Xiao Ruxun, the purpose of this war had already been achieved.

Japan was split into three pieces. Jianzhou Wei Nuzhen lost no less than [-] elite cavalry, and no less than [-] crippled people with broken legs and arms. This is equivalent to the destruction of [-] strong combat power. As a result, Yiduo's elite combat power was destroyed, and his vitality was severely injured. He could not continue to jump for a while, and the General Dragon and Tiger and some silver taels who were rewarded by the Ming Dynasty could not restore Nurhachi's vitality at all.

The loss of population, especially the loss of elite cavalry, is still very serious for a small tribe like Nurhachi. Although Nurhachi knew that he could get a lot of rewards, he still couldn't be happy, but Li Rusong was very happy I really feel that I have made such great military exploits, and I will definitely be knighted, and I will not be lower than Xiao Ruxun by then. What an honor it must be to be knighted by two fathers and sons of the Li family!
According to batches, the army left North Korea by boat one by one, and went directly to Tianjin Wei on the coast of North Zhili. After arriving at Tianjin Wei, the army formed a team and slowly headed to the capital. The illustrious martial arts expresses the honor and favor to the generals.

At this moment is the most glorious time for generals, civil servants also need to stay away from military generals who have made great achievements, and be a little more polite. Of course, it is only limited to generals who have made great achievements. Wen Shuai will immediately fall into impeachment hell.

Any trivial matter that may cause Wen Shuai's achievements to be discounted during the war will be infinitely magnified by people, and then they will be singled out, pointing to these trivial things and saying that Wen Shuai has bad intentions, and the cabinet bosses who hold power will take the opportunity to suppress Wen Shuai. Shuai, Wang Yangming was oppressed in this way at the beginning, and he was unable to display his political ambitions all his life, which is a pity.

Song Yingchang had already expected the criticism he would encounter, so he sent people back to the capital to write a letter early, mobilizing his personal connections to start operating, and Xiao Ruxun also mobilized the previous connections in the capital to start operating himself, trying not to let Both of them have their own ideas about what position they should stay in the capital.

However, the chaos in the capital at this moment has far exceeded anyone's initial imagination. Neither Wang Xijue nor Zhu Yijun had imagined that the chaos in the capital would reach such a level, far exceeding their previous imagination. They never thought that the courtiers would counterattack so hard, they turned out to be an attitude of ignoring the triumphant ceremony, and wanted the emperor to give an explanation no matter what.

And the one who gave Zhu Yijun a heavy blow was actually the birth mother, Empress Dowager Li, who issued an order to ask the emperor who he planned to make the prince. There was a sense of sarcasm in the words, and Zhu Yijun was a little annoyed and asked Wang Xijue to attack secretly, and angrily reprimanded Wang Xijue , Ask him what idea he came up with?Why did the courtiers react so violently? !Why even the Empress Dowager spoke out to mock me?
As a result, Zhu Yijun's play of arranging the queen to thank her has also become a joke, and the emperor's face is damaged, how is this acceptable?

Wang Xijue returned to the cabinet in disgrace, heaving and sighing. Zhao Zhigao, the cabinet's second assistant, comforted him: "The courtiers are raging, the dispute over the country has been protracted for a long time, and the temples are full of tricks, how can the courtiers not be angry?"

Wang Xijue sighed: "The most strange thing today is the right and wrong of temples, and the world must want to reverse it."

I don't know when it started. The conclusions made by the emperor, the decisions made by the emperor, the courtiers all think that opposition is the most correct, and it is incorrect to not object. It has become a lack of integrity to please the emperor. In a word, we all oppose the decisions made by the emperor, we all stop what the emperor wants to do, and we all refute what the emperor says.

I really don't know who owns this world!
Gu Xiancheng, the doctor of the examination department of the Ministry of Officials, was reporting to the cabinet. After hearing this, he immediately made a mockery - I see right and wrong in the world, and the temple must be against it!
It's not that we want to oppose the emperor, but what people in the world think is right and wrong, the emperor insists on opposing it!It is the emperor who wants to fight against the people of the world!
Hearing such a righteous statement, Wang Xijue's heart did not fluctuate, and he even wanted to laugh.

"Can you replace the people of the world?"

Gu Xiancheng said without shame: "My generation should bear the people of the world!"

"Illiterate farmers and women, you can also replace them? The ones you are responsible for are the landlords and gentry!"

Gu Xiancheng's complexion changed, his anger burst into anger, and he left immediately.

Although Wang Xijue intends to reprimand him, he also understands that his current identity in this stinking street cannot regain his credibility no matter what. Everyone regards himself as the emperor's running dog under the imperial edict. Wang Xijue's credibility and prestige have been seriously questioned again , Some people have already shouted the slogan of Wang Xijue, the running dog of the emperor. Presumably, some people will start calling for Wang Xijue to be ousted from power and replaced by a chief assistant soon.

But fortunately, it is true that the chief assistant of the cabinet cannot be done by just anyone. These people can do without Wang Xijue, but who do you find to replace them?Now there are only three people in the cabinet, besides Wang Xijue and Zhao Zhigao, there is another seat. If Wang Xijue goes down, according to the rules, Mr. Zhao Zhigao, a foolish man, must be the chief assistant, and he will still be the emperor's marionette. How will they play?
However, in the current situation, the ministers were furious, the empress dowager fanned the flames, and the emperor was furious. He, the chief assistant of the cabinet, was caught in the middle and was in a dilemma. Since the first assistant of the cabinet, there has never been a time when the chief assistant of the cabinet was in such a difficult situation. , Yan Song still has his own strict party to rely on, but Wang Xijue does not have his own royal party to rely on. Under such a situation, it really made Wang Xijue want to retire.

Should you really step back?
