Chapter 34 The pavilion and the pavilion sighed, and the seal was discussed thousands of miles away.
This night, many people are destined to not be able to sleep. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Yang Tinghe's mansion does not have as many carved beams and paintings in the palace, and it is not so splendid. But everywhere is elegant and exquisite, especially the place name paintings of the Tang and Song dynasties that can be seen everywhere, all of which are full of strong book fragrance.
Yang Tinghe thought that he was very disgusted with the smell of copper, so gold and jade were rarely seen in the house. But the ornaments in this huge mansion are not much worse than those in the palace, and they are still exquisite.
But everything costs money, and although Yang Tinghe's family was also a local clan, he definitely couldn't afford to buy the huge belongings of the capital and his hometown.
But Yang Shoufu is still a Qing official and a good official, at least the hundred officials and gentry say so, and then the people who don't know why have a good impression of the high-ranking prime minister in Beijing, thinking that he is a good person and a clean official. In the end, the history books written by the readers will also highlight Yang Tinghe's political achievements and style, but ignore the antiques, calligraphy and paintings in the house under the truth, and how the thousands of hectares of fertile land in his hometown came from.
Just like his descendants twenty years later, the famous face who became famous all over the world because he overthrew the big traitor and the big corrupt official!
But today, the air pressure in Yang Tinghe's "Prime Minister's Mansion" was terrifyingly low, and the servants galloped through cautiously and lightly. lest it cause the displeasure of the masters, and thus incur a disaster.
The night was cool and dewy, but Yang Tinghe sat in the gazebo in the garden and drank stuffy wine. Even his most proud son, Yang Shen, couldn't get close.
Yang Tinghe is the first assistant, and Yang Shen is also the champion of Zhengde for three years (it should have been Zhengde for six years, but Emperor Hongxiao lived three more years, and Zhengde ascended the throne three years later), and the future is limitless. Today's Yang Mansion can be described as a blazing fire cooking oil, and flowers are blooming. However, one son made a mistake, and the whole plate was lost.
How many years are left for this good scenery? Or a few months? What is the ending waiting for the Yang family, how could Yang Tinghe not guess?
Emperor Zhengde is getting older day by day, and he is also maturing step by step. Although it is still playful, it is becoming more and more difficult to control. The stubborn student of his own time began to not only try to break through the obstacles set up by the civilian officials, but also tried to get his hands on the most important power - military power.
Emperor Zhengde did not hesitate to work against hundreds of civil and military officials, and began to use Liu Jin to balance the government and the opposition and suppress civil officials. Later, he decided to march westward and promoted young generals to replace the corrupt ministers, trying to change the court pattern formed by the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty for more than 100 years.
In the absurdity of Emperor Zhengde's playfulness, what is hidden is his distrust of Wenchen and his dissatisfaction with the dignity of the corpse.
From the fact that Emperor Zhengde personally summoned a small Wufu Jiang Bin to try to organize a regimental camp, we know how heavy Emperor Zhengde's sense of crisis is, and how suspicious he is of himself and of all officials in the world. seems to have carte blanche to handle the government, but he has tried to get back the most important military power again and again.
After having effective control over the army, you can think of what Emperor Zhengde wants to do with your heels?
It's just to expand the territory, but what good is this for civilian officials? Under the military exploits, the military generals gained power, how could the civilian officials suppress the military ministers and control the court?
Fortunately, the imperial court still had the northwest to use as a face, so it resolutely disbanded the regimental camp and sent Jiang Bin to the northwest to serve. But Zhengde still refused to give up, but this time he thought of Wang Yangming.
Yang Tinghe sighed deeply when he thought of Wang Yangming. He and Wang Hua have a good personal relationship, Wang Yangming is smart when he is young, and he is also the younger generation he has always been optimistic about. But I didn't expect that after the act of fame back then, after degrading Yungui because of the impeachment of Liu Jin, it seemed to be a different person when he came back.
Wang Yangming's Wentao martial arts strategy is indeed extraordinary, but he was influenced by Taoism in the southwest. Today's Wang Yangming is no longer with the world's corpus. Because for his dream of being a saint, he did not hesitate to be the enemy of the world's scholars.
"The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency with more than the loss. The way of man is not enough to lose, but there is more than enough. The way of heaven is constant, and the way of man is new. Wang Yangming has indeed debunked the truth about the change of dynasties, and also exposed the lies woven by Confucianism for thousands of years.
Wang Yangming is declaring war on the world's nobles and scholars, and this is provoking the bottom line of the world's officials and military generals.
Who has more than enough? Who else besides Zhumen Qihu?
If Wang Yangming just said it casually, Yang Ting and them would still not have seen it.
But who knew that Emperor Zhengde would summon this heretic and have a great posture to take it as a guideline.
Since Emperor Zhengde succeeded to the throne, because of a series of dissatisfaction that began to accumulate because of the arrangement of civil officials, to the emperor began to provoke the side of the merit, and the dissatisfaction accumulated to the beginning of the layout of changing the emperor. In the end, Emperor Zhengde summoned Wang Yangming, which really united the world Shilin and most of the nobles to try to "change the emperor".
Yu Qian has done it, and the results are very good. The ministers killed the nobles, and after mastering the court, even the restored emperor had to pinch his nose and endure it. Yu Qian has become the idol of Shilin and a hero in history. Is it a conspiracy, after a hundred years, who can tell?
The layout was originally good, but I didn't want to be suddenly disrupted. Yang Tinghe originally hoped that Zhengde could quietly "die of illness". and then used the lives of the Zhang family to force the Empress Dowager Zhang to endorse. After leaving a few years old crown prince to succeed to the throne, Yang Tinghe had enough time to lay out everything.
At that time, no one will be able to turn the tables, and the emperor can die easily, and the civil officials will control everything in the Ming Dynasty.
didn't expect Yunhua to suddenly break in, and then cause even more difficult problems.
Xuanguang has become the biggest variable in the world, and it is also the most taboo and helpless existence in the imperial court!
The prince is missing! Who took him?
Originally, Yang Tinghe had enough time to erase all the clues of plotting to kill the emperor, and educated the prince to be a "qualified" emperor. With this merit, the Yang family has such a contribution, and of course Shilin is like a fish in water. His own son can be in his position today in a few decades. The Yang family's 100-year glory is just around the corner.
But now it's all over!
"Father! The news just came from the palace that the emperor secretly poured out the medicine of the imperial physician, and after being discovered by the imperial physician, he became angry and kicked the imperial physician to death! Yang Shen suddenly came over and reported to Yang Tinghe that he didn't know if it was good or bad.
"Hmmm! Got it, you go down first! Yang Tinghe sighed.
Emperor Zhengde obviously knew about his conspiracy for a long time, maybe since his illness became more and more serious, but the imperial doctor had not been replaced, he began to suspect it!
Perhaps, Emperor Zhengde asked him to change the imperial doctor, which was to test his bottom line.
Emperor Zhengde kicked the imperial doctor to death, which was a demonstration to himself! It's just a matter of whether Yang Tinghe dares to really kill the king.
Yang Ting and Yan Neng didn't know that Emperor Zhengde was issuing a warning to himself and others.
As long as the crown prince does not die, Yang Ting and their followers, and even their descendants, must be vigilant and careful of being retaliated against.
It's not impossible to claim that the crown prince and Emperor Zhengde died at the same time, but how can he block the world's mouths, and how can he block the inevitable backlash of the new monarch who won the throne himself?
To enter is to die! Retreat is death!
If the matter could be repeated, Yang Tinghe might never have nodded to this palace conspiracy. If you could go back to a few days ago, Yang Tinghe would definitely agree to Emperor Zhengde's request to replace the imperial doctor.
How about another one? The hospital has long been in their hands. What about an outcast?
Why did you tear up face with the emperor so impulsively?
Yang Tinghe is today, in this dilemma, he finally knows the word "regret" for the first time in his life.
Just when Yang Tinghe was depressed for the future of the Yang family, his fellow countryman, Sichuan Lichen, came to the Ming Western Regions Protectorate with a child less than three years old.
It was already dark, and the red lanterns were hung high in this military city in the Western Regions, shining like day, but except for the officers and soldiers patrolling, few people went out at night.
There was a curfew here, but the officers on patrol obviously saw that Chen was a Han and a Taoist chief, and he was holding a sleeping child, thinking that Chen was taking the child to the doctor, so he did not come to interrogate and stop it.
The Han people were worthless in the Ming Dynasty, but they became fragrant and sweet in the Western Regions. Because there are so few Han people here, there are hostile Hui all around. If it weren't for the army suppressed here, killed batch after batch, and shocked those alien races, the Western Regions would have changed the sky again.
The Han people are a people that can be trusted by the Western Regions Protectorate, because the Great Governor is a Han person, the generals are Han people, and the sergeants are also Han people. This is the territory reoccupied by the Ming Dynasty, and naturally the Han people are the masters.
Therefore, the Han people here are preferential and privileged. If the Han people are willing to move here, the Duhufu is even willing to send houses and fields for free.
But the Han people who had relocated to the land were reluctant to come. It's too far! The "reputation" of the Western Regions is very bad, and once you go, you don't know if you can come back. Ordinary people would rather suffer in their hometowns than leave their hometowns, but which frontier land is full of dangers.
The few Han Chinese here still committed crimes and were sent in. But even so, the Metropolitan Protectorate was like a treasure, and they were all put into the city, afraid that they would lose their lives outside for no apparent reason.
That's why the dust can walk on the street without anyone interrogating. It's really different from the afterlife.
Because the Ming Dynasty is the dynasty of the Han people, but the Manchu Qing Dynasty is Manchu, does it have anything to do with the Han people?
"Fusheng Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! There is something wrong with the poor road, and I want to ask to see the British Father, the Western Regions Protector Zhang, and I am tired of reporting it! Lichen saluted to the guards standing guard at the entrance of the mansion. After speaking, he took out a purple name card with a cloud pattern and handed it to the guard.
The guards were strange for a while, others came to the door with big red name stickers, but this Taoist chief was strange, the name post turned out to be purple.
But Daomen can be called the state religion in the Western Regions, although the audience is still small, but the status has been promoted early, according to the imperial court, it is rewarding. It is to reward the national teacher for his contribution to the development of the Western Regions.
Most of the Han Chinese in the Western Regions converted to Taoism, and the farther away from the Central Plains the more so. Because Taoism now has Taoist priests who accompany the army, they can occupy the commanding heights at the first time. This is especially true in the military. This Guardian is no exception.
The guard hurriedly returned the salute, and then politely asked him to wait, and ran into the palace with his name to report.
After a while, the gate of the Western Regions Protectorate slowly opened. The British Duke went out to greet him in person with a group of generals and a few people dressed in Taoist costumes.
Several people dressed as Taoist priests were particularly excited, and their tears were about to fall when they looked at the dust.
"Fusheng Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!" After Lichen greeted the British duke, several Taoist priests hurriedly knelt in front of Lichen and shouted: "Master, master!" ”
Lichen hurriedly helped them up with a smile. The one kneeling at the front turned out to be one of the dozens of outer disciples that Chen had accepted in Guizhou.
The young man of the year is now full of traces of time. I haven't seen it for more than ten years, and if it weren't for my eyes, I would almost be unrecognizable.
The joy of the reunion of master and apprentice will be left to be narrated later. The little prince had already been woken up from his dream by the movement here. In a daze, he rubbed his eyes with his chubby little hands, but saw a large number of people he didn't know. A little shyly, he turned his head to the dust and asked, "Master!" ”
Lichen patted the little guy funny and said, "Fall asleep first, I'll call you later, my master is here!" ”
Yunhua is the queen mother's daughter, that is, the cheap aunt of the little guy. Of course, Lichen is the little guy's master!
"Who is this?" If the British prince didn't know that there was no Taoist companion in the dust, he would almost think that the little guy was someone who was dusty. Otherwise, why do you think anyone can let the dust in their arms and be careful not to do it?
The little guy's sentence of "master" made everyone a little inexplicably surprised.
Whose child?
Lichen followed a group of civil and military officers from the Western Regions Metropolitan Protectorate to the backyard hall of the Western Regions Metropolitan Protectorate.
This was the place where the British entertained dignitaries and their generals.
After some greetings, the British Duke did not mention the matter, nor did he ask about the meaning of the dust. Instead, he asked about some ways to maintain health for a long time, and some Taoist knowledge and legends.
Until the generals dispersed, the British Duke welcomed the dust into a secret room. As for the little prince, he let an English duchess from Xindi carry him into the backyard to sleep early.
"The British Mansion, the world is favored by the Emperor. Zhang Guogong, you can lead the troops in the northwest of the Ming Dynasty for more than ten years, but how many military generals and important ministers are envious and red-eyed, and the civil officials have not impeached you. But the emperor always trusts you. I just don't know if you are worthy of the emperor's trust? Now that he has entered the secret room, he no longer pays attention to courtesy, and asks straight to the point.
The British public position is high and powerful, but there is no restraint on the dust, and the army outside will not pose the slightest threat to the dust. Lichen has this confidence, so that the British public should not hesitate anymore, and no longer delusional about the left and right, the first rat at both ends.
Because I didn't see Gu Dayong just now. This is a very bad sign!
Sometimes, hesitation is infidelity, and procrastination is a sign of inaction.
The British public sweated like rain in an instant!
The British public guessed the meaning of Chen's origin, but forgot the identity of Chen's national teacher.
Perhaps there has never been a cultivator who dared to kill thousands of people, but one or two powerful people could be pinched to death at will. The UK is no exception.
The British duke bowed his head and was silent, the stakes were very high, so how could he take the risk to go to the king?
Needless to say, if it fails, it must be in the name of rebellion, raiding the family and exterminating the clan. It's successful, it's hard to say, the meritorious town lord, under the seal, the old Zhu family has a tradition of killing heroes.
Seeing that the British Duke did not speak, he sighed deeply, the Taizu back then was indeed wise and martial, but he should not kill heroes indiscriminately for the benefit of one family and one surname. So much so that it left a bad influence on future generations. When the country is in danger, few people dare to stand up and turn the tide.
The Han belt can also have a clan to continue the dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty has Guo Ziyi to help the crisis. The Ming Dynasty really collapsed in one step, and it couldn't even seek a situation of two Song Dynasty. I have to say that Wuchen's centrifugation is too powerful.
"The emperor said that he must reward the heroes!" Lichen said slowly.
It seems that if you don't dispel the doubts of the British duke, the British duke will not dare to come forward!
Lichen looked at a map in the secret room, and suddenly pointed to the west of the Western Regions, after crossing the Tianshan Mountains, there was a large treasure land of fertile soil. Lichen suddenly pointed his finger to the place north of the sky and said: "The titles of the Ming Dynasty are all false, the burden of the imperial court is heavy, and the royal family is not having a good time. Therefore, the emperor has an idea, that is, to implement the feudal system, in the north of the Tianshan Mountains, Xia Jun Yimin. Grandpa Guo, you may be the king, follow the story of the prince back then, just north of Da Ming Mountain, how about two thousand miles longitudinal and horizontal? ”
Britain almost jumped up, if it weren't for the other party is dust, it is estimated that his old bones can't fight him, and he is about to fight with dust.
What about playing tricks?
He also returned to the dust and said: "In the future, the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty will also be sealed here, and the same is true of the heroes of the Ming Dynasty." Your country of a thousand miles will also be divided among the soldiers who have made meritorious contributions to your subordinates. The public waits for the uncle, and he is in charge of the first level. They will be your retainers, and you will be the emperor's retainers. But this place must be sinicized, according to the Han rites, read the study of Confucius and Mencius. Even if you don't want to be sinicized, resolutely drive it out. As for how to attract the Han people to come, your British government has accumulated for a hundred years, and for the sake of your country, you will not be reluctant to give up money! ”
The British Duke sat down in his chair with a pale face and kicked it in anger.
I have to say that the dusty method is an excellent idea for both the emperor and himself.
The emperor doesn't have to worry about the heroes being high, and the heroes don't have to worry about the rabbits dying and the dogs cooking.
Anyway, the north of the Tianshan Mountains is someone else's land, and with the current Ming national strength, it is powerless to control it. It happened to be a feudal system, like two weeks, to expand the territory of China.
The state is its own, and it is completely different from someone else's. At least no powerful people are willing to voluntarily give their private wealth to help the people, but the emperor can. It is also possible to divide the feudal king. They are much more attentive than the officials!
Even if he failed, Da Ming would just lose a bunch of extraterrestrial lands and a group of nobles. It can not only reduce the financial burden for the Ming Dynasty, but also open up the territory. As for whether there will be a martyrdom in a hundred years, it depends on where you are sealed. If Grandpa Cheng is no longer in Beijing, but thousands of miles away. Let's see if he can take his nephew's country?
With the size and heritage of the Ming Dynasty, as long as the emperor is not hopeless, he will not be turned against by the guys thousands of miles away! (To be continued.) )
