Chapter 295: Imperial Discussion (4)

Sure enough, Zhu Changluo glanced at the courtiers who were fighting for red faces, and suddenly came out of the crowd, and said loudly: "Father Qi, the sons think that the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's ministers, Dongfan is my Ming territory, and the court should include it in the scope of my Ming Dynasty's jurisdiction, not to mention that it does not cost the court a single money or grain, and can also contribute taxes and silver to the court and fill the treasury. ……”

As soon as Zhu Changluo spoke, the courtiers who were still arguing stopped arguing in surprise, and looked at Zhu Changluo with incredible eyes, even Emperor Wanli, who had been listening to the courtiers' arguments with his eyelids drooping and expressionless, raised his head in surprise, looked at Zhu Changluo, and didn't speak, his eyes flashed, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Although Shen was surprised that Zhu Changluo suddenly stood up to support Guo Zhiyuan, he didn't panic much, because he knew that the crown prince at this time was just an ornament, without any real power in his hands, and he didn't have the strength to wrestle with him, the first assistant, so he turned his head and glanced at Zhu Changluo with some contempt, and said in a weird manner: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you have always been in charge of national affairs, I'm afraid you don't even know which direction Dongfan is in, right?" But don't be taken advantage of?! ……”

Zhu Changluo was so angry that his whole body trembled, his fists were clenched, Guo Zhiyuan immediately jumped out when he saw it, and said loudly to Shen Zheng: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the prince of the country, and he has the world in his heart, how can he be used by others!" How can Shen Xiang say this to be said by a minister?! ……”

Guo Zhiyuan's sentence "the prince of the country" also touched the hearts of many courtiers who were interested in the prince, such as Yang Shiqiao and other Donglin party members who had been neutral and did not join the debate, also stood up one after another, and began to refute Shen Zhengyi, Zhu Changluo saw that so many courtiers supported him, and his clenched fist was also loosened, and he was secretly happy in his heart, it seems that he was right to bet, if he hadn't tried it like this, he really didn't know that there were so many ministers in the court and the central government facing him!

Shen has always been a little caught off guard by the siege of the courtiers who supported the prince, he really didn't expect the prince to have so many supporters, but he quickly noticed that Emperor Wanli's face was cloudy, and his heart immediately moved, and he coughed dryly: "Ladies and gentlemen, have you forgotten that what we are discussing today is whether it is feasible to build a government office in the east of the palace, why does the old man think that you are supporting it purely for the sake of supporting His Royal Highness the Prince?" ……”

I have to say that Shen has always been really old and spicy, as soon as he said this, Emperor Wanli frowned, and he was a little surprised that there were so many ministers in the court who supported the prince, and at the same time, it also touched his sensitive nerves a little, and even began to wonder if the prince was secretly dealing with the courtiers.

Guo Zhiyuan saw that the situation was not good, and quickly stood up and said loudly: "Shen Xiang, you are wrong!" The lords support the crown prince because the prince's opinion is the most beneficial to the imperial court, but Shen Xiang seems to have been targeting the lower officials, should you oppose the establishment of a government in the Eastern Fan Mansion purely because you don't like the lower officials? ……”

Shen has always been stunned by Guo Zhiyuan's move to attack the shield of the son with the spear of the son, and was about to refute, but Guo Zhiyuan didn't give him a chance, and quickly turned to face the Wanli Emperor and bowed and said: "Saint, Weichen thinks that there may never be a result if this discussion continues, anyway, whether it is for or against just now, all of you have fully expressed your reasons, why don't we let you raise your hands to vote, the minority obeys the majority, and finally please ask the Holy Lord!" ……”

Emperor Wanli was also a little noisy by the arguments of the courtiers, and when he heard it, he raised his eyebrows, pointed at Guo Zhiyuan with his finger, and said with a smile: "You kid has a lot of ideas, but this method is also interesting, so be it, you Aiqing don't have to argue, just do it according to Guo Aiqing's method......"

Shen always wanted to object, but Emperor Wanli waved his hand a little impatiently and said: "Shen Aiqing doesn't need to say any more, I am also a little tired, so let's do it!" ……”

Shen Yi meditated for a while, feeling that even if Shen Li and the ministers of the court who had just supported the crown prince, the number of members of the Zhejiang Party should still have a slight advantage, and he may not have no chance of winning, so there was no need for him to insist at the risk of angering Emperor Wanli, and silently retreated to the side.

Emperor Wanli saw that Shen had always had no objections, so he waved his hand happily and said, "Okay, all Aiqing who supports the establishment of a government in Dongfan should raise your hand!" ……”

Shen Li and the ministers who supported the crown prince all raised their hands firmly, Shen always counted the number of people silently, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, things were not much different from what he expected, he still had a chance of winning, suddenly his smile froze, and he found that Chu Honggang and several ministers of the DPRK and China who were good friends with Chu Honggang also raised their hands, isn't Chu Honggang the Fuwang Party? How could he choose to take the same position as the crown prince?!

Even Emperor Wanli was a little surprised, but he didn't look at Chu Honggang and glanced at Guo Zhiyuan meaningfully, but he didn't say anything, waved his hand and said: "Okay, I have a number in my heart, it seems that I don't need to let the opposing Aiqing raise their hands anymore, right?" Then it's decided, I will be played by Guo Aiqing, and I will ...... in Dongfan."

Shen Cheng finally woke up from the shock, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and grabbed the words: "Holy Lord, how can state affairs be such a child's play, please Holy Lord take back his fate!" ......" said and turned his head sharply at Guo Zhiyuan, and scolded angrily: "Guo Zhiyuan, the old man really underestimates you, you have such means at a young age, you can actually persuade the prince and so many ministers to support you, the old man finally understands now, you have wolf ambitions!" You occupy Dongfan because you want to establish yourself as a king! Do you dare to say that you have no ambition?! ……”

After speaking, Shen Zheng played the bitter card again, and cried bitterly with his head on the ground: "Shengshang, the old minister is incompetent, he is ashamed to be the first assistant, and he has failed to share the worries of the saint, but the old minister dares to assert that if people with wolf ambitions like Guo Zhiyuan are allowed to occupy Dongfan, it will become a disaster!" The old minister asked the saint to immediately issue an order to take down Guo Zhiyuan and ask him for the crime! If the saint is not allowed, the old minister can only die and repay the society with his body! ……”

Shen has always been out of the way, and even such a ruthless trick as death advice has been used, and the other Zhejiang Party members are not far behind, they have fallen to the ground, and they all began to cry bitterly and hit their heads to the ground to death, Guo Zhiyuan looked at the Zhejiang Party members who knelt on the ground in a daze, and said in his heart, What kind of grudge do I have with you, can you fight so hard? Kill at every turn!

Emperor Wanli also frowned when he saw this situation, he was most afraid of this situation, the ministers died, even if he was the emperor! And what Fang Cai Shen has always said did touch his nerves a little, Guo Zhiyuan was able to persuade the prince and so many courtiers to support the establishment of a government in Dongfan Kaifu did make Emperor Wanli a little surprised, if Guo Zhiyuan really has wolf ambitions, let him build a government in Dongfan Kaifu is to let the tiger return to the mountain, and it is not so easy to control him!
