Chapter Ninety-Six: Opening the Sea Eight

If it is widespread to a certain group of people, Zhu Qizhen can still say it, but it is specific to a certain person.

Zhu Qizhen couldn't say clearly.

Can't all these courtiers be targeted? If this happens, there will be a big problem in the court.

The Empress Dowager smiled: "Why is it not clear, Yang Rong has looked for you, Yang Rong suggested what you should do?" ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "Mr. advised Sun Er to take a step back and punish Wang Zhen. ”

The Empress Dowager said, "What do you think? ”

Zhu Qizhen gritted his teeth and said, "My grandson thinks it's reasonable, but I'm just unwilling. The grandson still insisted on the original idea. ”

The Empress Dowager smiled lightly and said, "Not bad." ”

"The flowers and willows are dense - the way to open them is the means; When the wind and rain are urgent, you can stand still, and you can see the root of your feet. ”

"If you listen to my Xiao Gui Cao Sui, rest with the people, and be at peace with the world, there may be fewer such scenes, the so-called what those scholars say, the Holy Son of Heaven rules the world. But if you really want to do what you want to do, today's thing is just a small start. ”

"It's also an old woman like me, and they don't dare to go too far."

"The big fish are all at the bottom of the water, and the ones that float up are just small fish and shrimp."

"Emperor, you are not afraid of not being smart, you are afraid of thinking you are smart. If you are not afraid of not understanding, you are afraid of thinking that you understand. And what is the biggest flaw of smart people? Do you know? ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "Please show me." ”

The Empress Dowager said: "Most smart people can't persevere. Because they know a lot, they think a lot, their heads turn quickly, and when they see that there is no road ahead, they change the way. ”

"But I don't know, the road is simple, the use of soldiers is straight, and the work is straight."

"This is wisdom and foolishness."

"If you think about this today's thing, you will stop here. Then listen to Yang Rong. This was Emperor Renzong's method. However, if you want to continue to do it, then use Emperor Taizong's method. ”

Zhu Qizhen raised his head and said, "Emperor Taizong saw today's situation, what should he do?" ”

The Empress Dowager said lightly: "Kill Li Shimian." ”

Zhu Qizhen was taken aback and said, "Niangniang, Speaker Li is a good official. ”

The Empress Dowager said: "Emperor Zhaolie of the Han Dynasty said that Zhilan was the door and had to be removed, Li Shimian was a hard bone, a minister, and Wei Zheng of this dynasty. ”

"But since it's in the way, there can only be one end."

Speaking of this, the Empress Dowager also sighed leisurely and said: "If it were someone else, it would be better, and if you go to prison to be convicted, you will probably be soft, but Li Shimian is a gentleman who would rather die than change his words, so don't let him suffer this." ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "Niangniang, this is not good. ”

The Empress Dowager said: "Why is it not good, people say that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, and they all think that the emperor is a tiger." However, I don't know about the tiger, and I can't let people pull out the tiger's whiskers. ”

"The tiger is powerful, but in the face of dozens and hundreds of people, it may not be able to win, so the tiger must show people their ability, what ability, is to eat a person from time to time."

"Don't you read Han Feizi? There are hundreds of battles in one day, and such a small battle has just begun. A few members of the Cabinet haven't left yet. ”

Zhu Qizhen thought for a while and said, "Mr. Li is innocent. ”

The Empress Dowager smiled: "Innocent, wherever there is no innocent in the court." Those who seek fame, seek profit, want to make meritorious contributions, want to make speeches, want to be emperors' teachers, want to be a generation of Wenzong, want to protect their family business, and want to glorify their ancestors. ”

"Li Shimian is just asking for fame."

"You just come to rehabilitate him and put the matter on my head or Wang Zhen's head."

Zhu Qizhen thought about it for a while, and he finally figured it out.

This matter may not be presided over by Li Shimian, but if you want to deal with this matter, you can't avoid Li Shimian.

Li Shimian is innocent, calculated by others, willingly, or used as a gun. If you do something like this, you will always have to pay a price.

The Empress Dowager looked at the music below with contempt. Kicked the bamboo basket over with a gentle kick, and a large piece of music fell to the ground, she said: "I am impatient to see these songs, any such a group of attack, but it is the easiest to deal with, catch the mastermind, and beat the killing stick." Then take a step back. That's it. ”

"The more people who participate, the more they wait and see each other, and the more they will not come out."

"It's really worrying, but it never leaks a trace of things in the folk. That's the most worrying thing. ”

Speaking of this, the Empress Dowager's eyes were slightly serious, as if she remembered something that made him palpitate.

Zhu Qizhen hesitated for a while and said, "Sun Er thinks that Li Shimian can't be killed. ”

The Empress Dowager said, "Oh. ”

Zhu Qizhen said: "It's not that the grandson cares about Lecturer Li, it's just that the grandson understands the joints after listening to the mother, but Li Shimian is quite famous in Shilin. If something happens, I am afraid that it will cause an uproar, which will not be conducive to the stability of the government and the opposition and the overall situation. ”

When the Empress Dowager heard this, she nodded with a smile and said, "Okay." You've figured it out. Let's go, go to the cabinet, I've made it clear to you today, I always want you to see the demeanor of your cabinet elders. ”

Zhu Qizhen didn't know anything yet.

The Empress Dowager ordered and took Zhu Qizhen to Wenyuan Pavilion.

And the Empress Dowager did not arrive at Wenyuan Pavilion, and several pavilion elders were already waiting.

As soon as he entered the cabinet, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor sat side by side, and after the five elders of the cabinet saluted with the people of the Chinese Scholar's House, the Empress Dowager said: "My old lady did not want to participate in the affairs of the DPRK and China. But there are some things that have to be brought forward. ”

"A few elders, my old woman only asks one thing, when? The people of the outer court can point fingers at the inner court. The slaves and maids in the palace are not under the control of my old woman, but let the people of the outer court interfere, do you think that my old woman is blind? ”

Several elders immediately knelt down and saluted, saying, "The ministers don't dare. ”

As soon as Zhu Qizhen heard the Empress Dowager speak, he suddenly applauded in his heart, and said secretly: "Wonderful." ”

The Empress Dowager grabbed a joint, Wang Zhen was a eunuch. At least in jurisdiction, it is the inner court. It's in the palace, and the imperial historian outside, no matter how powerful he is about things in the palace, he can't point fingers.

At least procedurally problematic.

Yang Shiqi said: "The Empress Dowager is wise, and the minister has already reprimanded the Imperial Procuratorate. It's just that now there is a case, that is, the case of Liu Yu, the squire of the Ministry of War, who has some communication with the palace, and the ministers dare not speak out, but it is known by the officials, and there is the iron law of Taizu. The official did not dare to say nothing. ”

The Empress Dowager made a preemptive strike, and Yang Shiqi even fought on behalf of him, and also counterattacked.

As far as Yang Shiqi's original intention is concerned, he is unwilling to conflict with the Empress Dowager. But there are some things, he has to speak, after all, he is the head of the officials in the world, and if he does not come forward to protect the people below, I am afraid that he will lose the hope of the world.

Of course, at this time, the Ming Dynasty was not yet a later generation.

Later generations of ministers of the Ming Dynasty would rather disappoint the emperor than not, and did not dare to disappoint Shilin. But Yang Shiqi just didn't want the Empress Dowager to be entangled more on this point.

So as soon as he opened his mouth, he took a step back, and this step gave up Wang Zhen's right to dispose of it.

The Empress Dowager said: "How is Li Yu's case? ”

When Yang Pu heard this, he immediately said: "The crime is conclusive. Judgement is being prepared. ”

The Empress Dowager said: "There is no need to prepare a sentence, to peep into the Ouchi, the crime of disrespect, and death." There's no need to wait for the autumn queen. ”

For a while, everyone looked at Yang Shiqi.

Zhu Qizhen secretly said in his heart: "This is killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys? He estimated that the Empress Dowager hadn't thought about Li Yu's case before she came, and she was just doing it at the moment. I want to deter the officials.

As for what Yang Shiqi thought, Zhu Qizhen intuitively thought that this Li Yu was thrown out by Yang Shiqi as a sacrifice.

Let the Empress Dowager sacrifice the sword.

Yang Shiqi said: "The minister obeys the order." ”

As soon as Yang Shiqi said this, Zhu Qizhen's heart suddenly became happy, because he determined that Li Yu's life was sent by Yang Shiqi.

The Empress Dowager said: "The emperor just told me that talking about the matter of going to the West is purely unnecessary, and a little wind and grass will make the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty boil. I don't do anything anymore. ”

"Li Shimian is not talking about things, and he can't find out, but he is even talking about Ouchi, hurting His Majesty's reputation, tell me, how to deal with it?"
