Chapter 217: Plain Clothes Coming to the Dynasty

The early mornings in the summer are the most comfortable.

When I went to court, it was much more comfortable than usual.

It's much stronger than when the heat comes up.

It's just that at this moment, everyone has no other thoughts, the big officials are heavy, and the small officials are also looking at their noses and noses, and they look like they want to be stones.

For the early dynasty, they were originally stone people.

But there are also many ministers who are unwilling to be stone men.

The face did not move, but his hand gently weighed the fold in his hand in the sleeve. There are not many such officials, and they are all ready to make a disaster today.

Among them, the biggest official is naturally Liu Qiu. Liu Qiu did not participate in any tandem, but as the imperial history of the left capital, he was the head of the Inspectorate, and he was the only old minister left in the imperial court pattern that Zhu Qizhen had replaced.

Liu Qiu thought that as the only remaining upright gentleman in the court, it was necessary for him to support Sheji. However, as a high-level Qingliu of the Ming Dynasty, he has no second words about the battle with the tile spur.

Especially after a big defeat, there is no second word, he represents a considerable number of Ming scholars, they are resolutely the main battle faction, and they will never compromise with the outside world.

If there is still a murmur among them before the war, although some people may not agree to make peace, they also agree to settle things and do not want to fight.

But now that he is fighting, he naturally has an attitude of fighting to the end, which is the gene of the bones of the great Ming scholars, which has been passed down from the time of Emperor Taizu.

But not supporting an off-team compromise doesn't mean they don't have an opinion.

Of course, not to the emperor, but to the governor's palace of the five armies.

As mentioned earlier, there is a grudge between the military department and the governor's office of the five armies.

But since Zhu Qizhen came into power, in dealing with this matter, he has been somewhat partial to the Governor's Office of the Five Armies. This defeat is just a turnaround battle.

Deprive the Governor's Office of the Five Armies of its powers. Let the development of the military department be on the right track.

Zhu Qizhen actually knows this problem.

But Wang Ji is in the cabinet. And from Yang Rong to Wang Ji, they are in the same vein, that is, they want to draw the military power from the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to the Ministry of War.

In fact, Zhu Qizhen was also suspicious that Wang Ji was pushing behind.

But there are some things that you know to know. But it's hard to say clearly, after all, the logistics of the army can be clearly managed, and those Qiu Ba can also be suppressed, so that they don't go too far, only Wang Ji is the only one.

In addition, the battle of Maoerzhuang was supported and delegated by Zhu Qizhen, and since he was defeated, Zhu Qizhen naturally had to pay some price. That's the political rule as it should be.

However, Zhu Qizhen didn't want to fall into their routine.

So, he had to strike first.

When the sound of the silent whip sounded, there was a big one

As a forerunner, the ministers were silent for a while, and the imperial historians of the Metropolitan Procuratorate also looked around, as if they were the head teachers on the playground, to see who dared to go overboard, act indiscriminately, and even whisper.

Suddenly, a sharp male duck said in his voice: "Your Majesty has arrived." ”

For a time, the ministers saluted. Immediately, another male duck said in a voice: "Flat." ”

After some cumbersome etiquette, the ministers looked up and suddenly exploded, because the person on the dragon chair actually wore a white coat over the dragon robe.

There are rules for when the emperor wears clothes. There are a few people in the world who are worthy of Emperor Dai Xiao.

In doing so, Zhu Qizhen raised the severity of this defeat, to the height of the life and death of the Ming Dynasty, and to the point of insulting the ancestors.

To do so is to disrupt some people's steps.

Zhu Qizhen has always shown that he cherishes his reputation and feathers, and they never thought that Zhu Qizhen would do this, and doing so was Zhu Qizhen slapping himself in the face.

didn't know that Zhu Qizhen cared about reputation, but he just felt that reputation was just a political capital, and since it was capital, it should be used when it should be used.

As long as there are political benefits, Zhu Qizhen can be completely shameless.

In doing so, Zhu Qizhen has several goals to achieve.

First, it will take the lead in post-war processing. Suppress the voice of civil officials below. The more pitiful Zhu Qizhen becomes, the more civil officials have to maintain imperial power.

After all, a large part of the power of civil officials comes from the emperor, and maintaining the emperor's rule is not only politically correct, but also inevitable for them to maintain power.

After all, with the principle of the lord humiliating the ministers to death, let the emperor be such a courtier, it is ten thousand times more deserved.

Second, it is determined that the war with the tile spurs will be protracted, and the national policy of never quitting the army if it is not killed.

To be honest, in the entire mainstream public opinion circle of the Ming Dynasty, except for Zhu Qizhen himself, no one is interested in including Mobei in the territory. In particular, the consequences of Emperor Taizong's several northern expeditions made everyone have a mindset, that is, mobilizing troops against Mobei is a great achievement, and it will only create a bleeding wound for the imperial court.

The land of Mobei is what Emperor Taizu said, "The land is not enough to supply, and the people are not enough to make orders." "The place.

So now that the tile spur has committed the border, the court will naturally shout and kill, but once the Ming Dynasty wins, and even invades the grassland, destroying the main force of the tile spur, at that time the tile spur asks the court for peace, and the court may not insist on it like this.

From the time Zhu Qizhen decided to fight the tile thorn, he faced all kinds of opponents, both visible and invisible. Even when opening the history books, Emperor Taizong decided to go on the Northern Expedition, and there was no shortage of opponents, and the biggest opponent was Emperor Renzong, who was still the crown prince at that time.

When Emperor Taizong dealt with these opponents, he simply threw himself in

In prison.

But Zhu Qizhen thought to himself, it was impossible for him to do this. After all, Emperor Taizong's name is inheritance, which is actually the same as creation. His prestige is unshakable, and Zhu Qizhen may not be able to have the prestige of Emperor Taizong in his life.

Therefore, he didn't dare to use Emperor Taizong's method, and now this method is still a symptom but not a root cause, if you want to cure the root cause, you have to find a way to let the Mobei grassland create wealth for the imperial court.

This is the question that Zhu Qizhen will have to think about for a long time in the future.

After all, those who do not seek eternity are not enough to seek a moment. When you think about it at the end of the day, it's a big problem.

Zhu Qizhen didn't wait for the ministers to recover from the shock, and immediately ordered Fan Hong to issue an edict, not something else, but an edict for himself.

The edict is naturally the handwriting of the three yuan and the first businessman. Flowers are full of flowers, a lot of oceans, but the core is drawn up by Zhu Qizhen, Zhu Qizhen adheres to the spirit of all sides, the sin is in the spirit of bowing, and the responsibility for the defeat of Maoerzhuang is stopped on his head, saying that he has no basis for advancing and retreating, and he is too eager to win. He also said that he did not listen to the people and insisted on going his own way. And in the case of insufficient preparation, the war will start lightly. If yes, etc.

He also said that this matter was the first defeat of this dynasty, and he was ashamed of his ancestors and ashamed of the people. Shameful and humiliating, unworthy of position. A tone that wants to abdicate and make way for Xian.

The outside of the Manchu Dynasty Wenwu Town is scorched and the inside is tender.

Even Liu Qiu couldn't think of it. For a while, Liu Qiu had a new understanding of Zhu Qizhen's style, and said secretly in his heart: "Why didn't I see it, why are you so rogue today." ”

The emperor is irrevocable. Zhu Qizhen naturally could not abdicate.

Zhu Qizhen played a set of seven-wound punches, which seemed to be himself, but in fact he hit the face of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces. It was the face of the Ming court.

To be honest, although Chengguo was defeated very badly, for most officials, there was a sense of crisis, but it was not too serious.

After all, Beijing is still safe, and under Zhu Qizhen's governance, although there are all kinds of twists and turns, the national strength is generally rising.

Therefore, everyone thinks that the tile spur is a sibling disease at best, and although it is troublesome, it can't hurt the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, so everyone happily wants to take this opportunity to bring down the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.

If it's really a time of crisis, I won't do it. After the defeat of Tumubao in history, although Wang Zhen's remnant party Ma Shun was killed in court, Yu Qian still wrote a letter to stop holding Wang Zhen's party accountable.

Because the battle to defend Beijing is imminent, it is not the time to make a big move.

In this way, Zhu Qizhen's performance almost opened the bow left and right in the faces of all the ministers.

"Damn it." I don't know who said it, but the ministers knelt on the ground together, and some people were already crying.

It seems to be a rule, that is, the closer the ministers are to the emperor, the more they lose their reverence for the emperor, the emperor has no sacredness for them at all, but the courtiers who are farther away from the emperor are different.
