Chapter 139: Zhang Lang's Last Words

It seems that overnight in the city of Beijing, there is an article that has spread to everyone, whether it is a noble or a civil official.

It caused a great political earthquake, and even the ongoing southern expedition to Luchuan is about to carry out the repair project of the Lugou River. And so on the big things have taken a back seat.

Because of this article, it seems to be done by crazy people, but it hits directly, the national policy of the Ming Dynasty. And the writing is flying, and there are many analyses, and there are three points.

More importantly, this is the posthumous work of Zhang Zhong, the British prince.

One stone strikes a thousand waves.

Responses have been mixed.

The British Gong Zhang Fu stood in front of Zhang Zhong's tablet.

It stands to reason that Zhang Zhong has no children. should not enter the ancestral hall, but Zhang Fu's heart of love for his son, who can stop it among the British princes.

He held in his hand a copy of Zhang Zhong's feudal policy.

Zhang Fu's hair was all white, tears flowed on his back, and he said: "This is what you have worked hard for the past few years. It was I who harmed you, and I couldn't let go of Annan's matter, but I bothered you to do so. ”

Different people, read this article. has different feelings, but Zhang Fu seems to be filial piety to his son at the moment.

Zhang Yu died early, Zhang Fu supported the portal, and was always cautious. But there is only one thing, opposing the Manchu civil and military forces, and he has not changed his mind.

This is the abandonment of Annan.

It can be said that it is lingering.

In Zhang Fu's view, Zhang Zhong's article is dedicated to changing the Ming national policy and transforming the Ming national policy from the strategic contraction that has been in the process of Hong Xi for many years.

And Zhang Fu seems that after so many years of recuperation, the Ming Dynasty has also accumulated some family resources. It's time to change the strategy of completely letting Mobei, Nanyang and other places go since Renxuan.

Zhang Fu naturally knew that there would be many people who would oppose it.

But no matter what this article is, it is sent by the deceased son, and it is only the interests of the Wuxun group that he represents. He could not take half a step back.

"You know, I, Zhang Fu, are not dead yet." Zhang Fu's hair was all open, and his eyes were like electricity, as if a tiger had burst out.

In ordinary times, in the cabinet, Zhang Fu, who follows the rules, is submissive, and does not dare to take a step beyond Lei Chi, does not seem to be the real Zhang Fu. And Zhang Fu at this time is the real Zhang Fu.

Zhang Fu walked out of the ancestral hall and immediately asked the servants to hand over the posts to the Chengguo Mansion, the Dingguo Mansion, and all the nobles in Beijing.

Zhang Fu didn't dare to say that he had never interacted with the nobles, but it was rare to have a large-scale banquet for the nobles in Beijing.

Zhang Fu's move doesn't seem to be hidden.

Yang Shiqi immediately knew about this matter.

After Yang Shiqi thought about it, he first sent someone to call Yu Qian over and asked, "Do you know this matter?" ”

Of course, Yu Qian had read this article, but said, "The student doesn't know. Yang Shiqi was not surprised, and said, "But this is what Your Majesty meant?" Right. ”

Yu Qian pondered for a while and said: "Your Majesty often has the ambition to expand the territory, and the teacher also knows it, but it may not be Your Majesty's intention to divide the vassal king in a place beyond the reach of the imperial court." After all, it's a difficult thing. It's always unavoidable. ”

Of course Yang Shiqi knew.

The matter of appeasement is a taboo in the Ming Dynasty. It cannot be said that it cannot be mentioned at all. However, after the appeasement, cutting the feudal domain has long become a political correctness that cannot be said.

Yang Shiqi sighed and said, "You still haven't seen it clearly, how do you know that this is not His Majesty's strategy to cut the domain?" ”

When Yu Qian heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he figured it out.

In the eyes of the people of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty is the best place in the world, and the places far away from the Ming Dynasty are all wild places. Divide the vassal kings of various places far away from the Ming Dynasty, at least the two capitals and thirteen provinces now, but they will not be crowned kings.

Isn't this a kind of monetization?

Not everyone can gain a foothold everywhere. Not even everyone has the courage of King Xiang.

Yu Qian cautiously asked, "What does the teacher mean?" ”

Yu Qian had adapted to his political position in the court.

Yu Qian is the connecting channel between the emperor and Yang Shiqi.

Many things are communicated between Zhu Qizhen and Yang Shiqi through Yu Qian.

Yang Shiqi said: "This matter will never come true. Although there are some good things in it, such as the matter of the vassal king. I never thought that if the descendants of the current vassal kings were to reproduce, the imperial court would be overwhelmed. ”

"I am going to draw up the regulations of the clan, so that from now on, the court will only be responsible for the annual salaries of the vassal kings, and the clansmen of the vassal kings will be responsible for themselves, and they will also let the clansmen come out as appropriate. However, during the Yongle period, the imperial court consumed too much, even after Hongxi, he recuperated, but in fact, many wars have not been broken. ”

"During the Xuande period, the battle of the Pinghan Shuren, the conquest of Wuliangha, Songpan, and Annan overturned the division, after orthodoxy, there was the battle of the northwest, and now there is the expedition of Luchuan."

"The imperial court has not extinguished the front, but it is just a big fight or a small fight."

"Although the tile spur sits on a large scale, but ten years of life and gathering, ten years of rest, before there is a rise in the army, even if Your Majesty has the intention of raising the army, I have to advise Your Majesty, within ten years, there is no word about the army."

When Yang Shiqi read this article, he didn't care about the foreign town of the vassal king at all, and directly pointed out the emperor's intentions.

The so-called kung fu is outside the poem.

This article is certainly a good article, but Zhang Zhong has worked hard to do it, and it is almost impossible to say a word. But Yang Shiqi wants to see the intention behind this article.

That is Zhu Qizhen's attempt to change the Ming Dynasty's national policy.

After the earthquake, the Empress Dowager no longer asked about political affairs. Yang Shiqi was determined not to let the imperial court fall into the middle of the conquest. Ten years, Yang Shiqi himself may not be able to pivot for ten years.

That's why he said it. Of course, it is believed that the imperial court has insufficient savings and is not enough to carry out a large-scale expedition. But Yang Shiqi may not be without a little selfishness.

This selfishness is that Yang Shiqi certainly knows that he can't stop the emperor.

After all, in ancient times, if the emperor really wanted to do something, it was difficult for anyone to really stop him.

But Yang Shiqi didn't want to. Clean up a mess for the emperor.

When people are old, they want to ask for a posthumous name, although Zhu Qizhen is the emperor, but Zhu Qizhen is not Emperor Taizong, and Yang Shiqi also fought with Emperor Taizong.

Really know what it means to be in danger.

I don't want to take that risk.

Yang Shiqi turned his head and said to Qian: "Tell Your Majesty what you said." ”

Yu Qian was slightly taken aback, Yang Shiqi could actually guess what Yang Shiqi told Yu Qian, Yu Qian told Zhu Qizhen from various angles.

And what Zhu Qizhen told Yu Qian may not have wanted Yu Qian to tell Yang Shiqi.

But Yang Shiqi made it clear like this, but it was the first time.

He came to understand more and more that today's events matter.

If it is not handled well, the stable political situation that has lasted from the tenth year of Xuande to the fourth year of orthodoxy will be broken today.

Yu Qian entered the palace and told Zhu Qizhen these words.

Zhu Qizhen listened and said, "I know. ”

Yu Qian said: "Your Majesty, Yang Shoufu means that it is also for the sake of the imperial court, please think about it very much." ”

Zhu Qizhen listened to Yu Qian's words, and was a little angry for a moment. Zhu Qizhen regarded Yu Qian as a confidant, but Yu Qian did not completely obey him. But then Zhu Qizhen was relieved.

After all, the famous ministers who can leave their names in history are talents, not slaves.

Slaves can be completely obeyed, but they are all talents who can really achieve great things.

It's just that even so, Zhu Qizhen was still a little uncomfortable in his heart, and said with a smile: "Yang Shoufu is too worried. I just thought of the battle of Luchuan today, and I didn't really want to raise troops on a large scale, how could I not understand the truth of Yang Shoufu's ten-year reunion. I assured Yang Shoufu that I would not provoke another war until the battle in Luchuan was settled. ”

Yu Qian also knew that Zhu Qizhen's guarantee was a little dishonest. There are a lot of live buckles in this statement. But Yu Qian was finally able to explain to Yang Shiqi.

Yu Qian persuaded Zhu Qizhen a few more words, to the effect that Zhu Qizhen was rich in spring and autumn, and at this time, he should be in a hurry and be patient, and not be in a hurry.

Zhu Qizhen agreed to come down one by one, and then sent Yu Qian out.

After Zhu Qizhen saw Yu Qian leave, his face changed slightly, and he said secretly in his heart: "I'm like this, I can probably make Yang Shiqi not come forward to fight me." However, the opposition of the Manchu civil and military forces will not be easily passed. ”

"Fortunately, Zhang Fu is here, so don't worry about the generals."

After thinking about it, Zhu Qizhen was still not very relieved. So he got up and ordered someone to set up Cining Palace.
