Chapter 619

In Beijing in August, the weather is hot and the people are "hot".

There are many eminent monks and great virtues, and some people of Taoism continue to go to the altar to give lectures; Watching all this with wide eyes, watching how the tax battle will play out.

There are high-ranking officials who catch people's attention going to sea, and there are also mighty incidents where people from all over the world drink alcohol.

All this is dizzying.

Ever since Gong Yinzhi of Yansheng met the emperor once, he knew that the emperor had prejudice against him, even prejudiced him. He didn't know the specific reason for it, but he felt regretful and embarrassed.

Immediately after coming out from the emperor, there were many entertainments, more or less, overtly or secretly, or covertly. Many people mentioned the tax dispute and asked Yan Shenggong's attitude, where to stand? side.This made Kong Yinzhi feel terrified, the fight was almost open to the public, and he talked about it in the teahouse in broad daylight, not afraid to let the emperor hear it.In this case, either the emperor had completely lost control of the matter, or everything was under the emperor's control, and the emperor let everyone talk about it.

Only when Kong Yinzhi arrived in the capital did he have a more intuitive understanding of the tax dispute. Which side he stood on became a headache for him. Now the emperor's attitude towards him made him dare not express himself casually. manner.

Based on the results he observed these days, the emperor or the tax-paying faction had an absolute advantage. Apart from anything else, he felt that as long as the emperor had the support of these people, he would be able to Can cause huge troubles, let alone others?
Those educators also have great prestige in the scholastic community. No matter how they teach in the name of saints, no one dares to refute anything easily. They almost naturally stand on morality and victory. In fact, they are biased towards the emperor in the dispute over tax payment. No matter how Kong Yinzhi sees the emperor, he does not look like he is losing. Logically speaking, his family is only on this point, so he has to support the emperor in collecting taxes. Anyway, The emperors of other families strongly support the promotion and realization of the ideas and ideals of saints, and their family has no reason to object.

After seeing the emperor's methods of dealing with those people, Kong Yinzhi felt that those people had no chance of winning. With such awe-inspiring spirit, they won the support and admiration of all people in the world. It would be unreasonable to lose to those people.

But he couldn't figure it out, the emperor obviously should fight for him, but he seemed to push him to the other side just after meeting, which made Kong Yinzhi feel a sense of fear.

Although Han Yu, Cao Yubian and others had a good chat with him and tried their best to win him over, he didn't dare to agree to side with these people casually, but tried his best to be impartial and In the middle, the more he talked to these people, the more uncertain he was. These people kept saying how much strength they still had, but the more Kong Yinzhi listened, the more he felt that he and these people were not even the same, and felt a huge sense of crisis.

Today, he came to the palace again to face the saint. This sense of crisis made Kong Yinzhi restless.

……

Yang Reform is holding a "cabinet meeting" by the Taiye Pool.

"It seems that Lin Danhan is afraid of being beaten. Since the last confrontation with Donglu, his situation has become more and more unsatisfactory. He has lost a lot and won less! Now, he finally couldn't resist, and asked me Chao asked for help, I begged Chao to rescue him vigorously... Hehe, let everyone discuss this matter, let’s see how it is treated, the envoy of Lin Danhan is also in the capital, whether to help or not, we must hurry up Give me an explanation." Yang Reform said with a smile.Here is a shade of trees, and there is a pavilion next to it, and a large sand table is placed outside the pavilion, and the people who come here are also a few cabinet ministers and ministers.

Yang Reform was laughing at Lin Danhan, and now he couldn't stand it any longer. He originally thought that Houjin had severely injured the Ming Dynasty, and he could take advantage of it. After being defeated by Houjin once, he felt that On his own, he can regain his position, he can regain his face, and he insisted on fighting against Houjin continuously. He also wanted to defeat Houjin once like Ming Dynasty, so as to give him a prestige, but the reality is that Houjin It is his nemesis. In the hands of Houjin, he has been defeated again and again. It can be said that he has been defeated. Only then did he have to think of the Ming Dynasty and had to ask for help from the Ming Dynasty. Judging from the tone he got from the envoy, Lin Danhan was really scared of being beaten by Hou Jin, and he was really hurt.The news from the front also confirmed this point, and there were several battles between the two families.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I think it should be rescued." Shi Fenglai was the first to speak.

"Oh, why?" Yang Reform asked, with a smile on his face. This news is nothing to others, but to Yang Reform, it is indeed something to be happy about. Hearing this, Yang Reform is in a particularly happy mood refreshing.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I made an appointment with Lin Danhan earlier to deal with Donglu together. After all, I can be regarded as an ally of my Dynasty. I can't just sit and watch Lin Danhan be wiped out. Extremely unfavorable." Shi Fenglai's remarks were quite satisfactory, nothing unexpected and nothing wrong.

"That makes sense, what about the other Qing family? What do you think?" Yang Reform asked with a smile.Sure enough, this history is as expected, Lin Danhan met Huang Taiji, it was a tragedy.

"Your Majesty, I feel that we should be rescued. As Shoufu said, it would be extremely detrimental to our dynasty if we just sit back and watch the Eastern Prisoners continue to grow." Han Yu also said that he should be rescued.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I think that I should also save..."

A few more people spoke up, all talking about saving lives.

"Well, since all the Qing family said that it should be rescued, then the general direction will be determined, rescue, but how to save, do you have different opinions?" Yang Reform asked again with a smile.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I believe that we should send troops to rescue him. As long as there are [-] fine cavalry to assist Lin Danhan, there will be no fear of the Eastern captives..." said a minister.

Yang Reform was scornful in his heart, so he directly sent [-] elite riders to rescue Lin Danhan?This brain, not to mention sick, at least not normal, using one's own elite troops to fill in holes for others, this kind of thing is done by fools. [Historically, the Ming Dynasty sent troops to rescue Lin Danhan, the number seems to be [-], if I remember correctly. 】

"Han Qing's family, let's talk about it." Even though the idea just now was bad, Yang Reform didn't slap his face too much, he just ignored it as if it didn't exist.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I think it is not possible to send troops directly. Donglu and Lin Danhan fought against each other on the inland grasslands. If our army goes deep into the grasslands, what should we do with the food and grass? What if we are surrounded on the grasslands? Come and save me?" Yang Reform didn't slap his face, but Han Yu did, embarrassing the minister who spoke just now.

"Well, that makes sense, so what should we do?" Yang Reform asked with a smile. This Han Yu still has some brains, at least his IQ is normal.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, we still only need to increase the pressure on the southeast and southeast sides. There is no need to go deep into the inland grassland to get chestnuts for Lin Dan. As long as the pressure is increased, the eastern captives will naturally send more soldiers and horses to deal with it. It's a relief for Lin Danhan..." Han Yu said.

"It makes sense. However, according to Yuan Chonghuan, it seems that the Donglu has shrunk his troops so much that he usually doesn't take a step further when he is fifty miles away from the sea. He even wants to stop being a hundred miles away from the sea. He is dedicated to fighting Lin Dan. Khan, if we intensify the pressure, we can only go to fight the Donglu lair..." Yang Reform said with a smile, I have to say that Lin Danhan is a tragedy.

Hearing what the emperor said, everyone also calmed down and thought about the problem carefully.

"Your Majesty, now that we have a strong army and horses, why don't we destroy the old lair of the Donglu in one fell swoop? Isn't it better than letting the Donglu sit here?" A minister said suddenly.

"Although the Qing family's idea is good, I also want to do this, but the opinion of the staff department is that this is not the time for a decisive battle. We have too many recruits, and the decisive battle is inland. Going deep into the inland is extremely difficult. It is easy to be called by the Eastern Captives, so it is not the time to do it yet." Yang Reform rejected the proposal of a decisive battle with Hou Jin.

"Your Majesty, why can't we fight a decisive battle? Now that the Eastern Prisoners have been defeated here, their morale and strength are not as good as mine, why can't they fight?" Someone asked unwillingly.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I think that we can take advantage of the great opportunity of the entanglement between Donglu and Lin Danhan to wipe out Donglu in one fell swoop. This is really a god-sent opportunity!" Someone even picked up and demanded to beat Donglu.

Regarding sending troops to the East Captives, several people shouted.

Yang Reform smiled. If you think so, go and beat Donglu now?I'm afraid it's not just to destroy Donglu. Now Liaodong is selling land at a critical juncture. If Donglu is killed in one fell swoop, how can the land be sold?Yang Reform knew that these people would have this idea.

"Well, the Qings are also right,... how does Master Sun see this matter?" Yang Reform made Sun Chengzong speak out on this matter, after all, it involved the military.

Everyone looked at Sun Chengzong to see what Sun Chengzong could say.

"Your Majesty, I think it's okay to save Lin Dan Khan, but you can't let Daming help him out of the fire. Although Lin Dan Khan has lost now, he is still the overlord with tens of thousands of armor. But the strength is far from bottoming out. If we attack Donglu's lair at this time, if we, Daming and Donglu, are both defeated, and Lin Danhan comes with a yellow bird behind us, wouldn't my Ming's officers and soldiers want to attack? Buried on the grassland? According to Yichen, Lin Danhan and Donglu can use up their strength as much as possible first. The longer the two sides fight, the better. In this way, it is the most appropriate way for me to decide the world in one fell swoop. Besides, Although Donglu was defeated by our dynasty in Sancha River, our dynasty’s losses were not small. Jin Ning also suffered more than [-] elite casualties. Now he has more than enough defense and insufficient offense. It will take some time to replenish the elite. Now is not a good time to fight Donglu..., what I mean, you can support some supplies to Lin Danhan, and you can put more pressure on Donglu from the southeast, but you must not send troops directly, you need to wait for them to fight Let's talk about both losses..." Sun Chengzong gave the reason, very righteous words.

"That's right, what Sun Qing's family said makes sense. Although Sanchahe has won the battle, it is not without losses! There is more than enough defense, but not enough offense! That's right, if all the elites of the family go out, who will defend the family? ? What if Donglu or Lin Danhan got tricked on the grassland? Let’s wait a little longer. After all these years, what are we afraid of waiting for another year or a half? We must do everything right, I Although Chao and Lin Danhan are allies, it is impossible for him to take a chestnut from the fire. I agree that I can support Lin Danhan, let him recover some strength, and continue to fight with Donglu until the two of them are exhausted. Let me intervene in this What do you guys think, the later the dispute between the three families is, the better?" Yang Reform said.

Seeing that the emperor and Sun Chengzong insisted on not sending troops, everyone knew that probably they would not send troops. The emperor's military prestige is not generally high, and Sun Chengzong's prestige is not generally high. All the cabinet ministers have said that they will not send troops, so basically they will not send troops, and it is empty to say more.

"Your Majesty, I agree to support Lin Dan Khan, but not to send troops..." Shi Fenglai immediately came out to express his support for the emperor.

"My Majesty, I also agree to support Lin Dan Khan, but whether it is to directly send troops to help Lin Dan Khan or send troops to Donglu's lair, there is really no need for my court to take chestnuts for others." More people stood up in favor of the emperor.

Cao Yubian originally wanted to fight back, but after thinking about it, he still didn't plan to fight. In this kind of situation, there is no way to fight against the emperor. There are too many imperial parties. What's more, the emperor is right. The reason for his request to send troops is The matter is a bit far-fetched, let alone the emperor, Sun Chengzong alone has too much prestige in the military, and he is also a cabinet minister who focuses on military affairs. There is really no reason to argue with him in this regard, but Thinking of the land sale in Liaodong, he felt bitter. Han Yan told him to learn to be moderate, but he felt that as soon as he was moderate, things would immediately develop to the side he didn't want to see. How could he be moderate?Cao Yubian was full of worries.

"Since you all feel that support is fine, but you can't send troops directly, then it's decided that this matter will be handed over to Master Sun. You can't neglect that envoy." Yang Reform quickly finalized the matter.

After finalizing the matter, the cabinet ministers dispersed, some shook their heads, some were silent, and some were full of dissatisfaction.

After everyone had almost left, Yang Reform smiled and said to Sun Chengzong: "Master Sun, you need to trouble Master Sun to help Lin Danhan. Lin Danhan can't be beaten too badly, but Lin Danhan should remember my kindness. I don't care much about Lin Danhan, but there is a seal, which I really like. If Lin Danhan can put this Sending the seal to my Ming Dynasty is a beautiful thing." Yang Reform not only consumes the strength of Lin Danhan and Hou Jin, but also values ​​the seal on Lin Danhan's body. This seal can be regarded as Lin Dan's becoming the co-owner of the grassland According to the basis, it was later taken away by Houjin. After it was taken away, the Dajin was changed to the Qing Dynasty. In terms of legal system, it can be regarded as having a certain foundation. Yang Reform wanted to acquire land on the grassland. In other words, it is also useful to a certain extent. If it is achieved, it can be regarded as "justifiable" in annexing and managing the grassland in the future, which can save a lot of trouble.

"I understand." Sun Chengzong agreed.
