At this time, Yang Ming's line of thought really can't pinch Xia Yan's party, because the power of Xia Yan's party in the DPRK and Central China is too strong, and the cabinet, officials' ministries, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate are almost all under their control, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a power tilt towards the government and the opposition.

Of course, it doesn't mean that all the yamen in the imperial court are under their control, and many of the other yamen bigwigs are not members of Xia Yan's party, but they don't dare to offend Xia Yan's party, so when Yangming is arguing with Xia Yan's party at this time, it still seems a little lonely.

Jiajing naturally knew this, and he seemed to listen carefully to the opinions of the important ministers of the court for a while, and then concluded: "Well, no matter what, Liu Tianhe did not guard the Great Wall of Datong Town and let the Tartars break into the territory of Datong Town, this is a fact, and he deserves to be punished as the governor of a town." ”

Xia Yan heard Jiajing say this, and his brows couldn't help but curl slightly.

Hehe, even if you are the emperor, you can't be arbitrary, the current court is my world, even if it is a court discussion, as long as Yan Song doesn't have any moths, you don't have to listen to me.

He was obviously a little floating, and if he hadn't had to maintain the dignity of the monarch and the minister on the surface, he would probably have his eyebrows fluttering.

Yan Song didn't have any special expression, his face was full of seriousness, and people who didn't know thought he was a selfless virtuous minister.

The expressions of the officials of the Yangming line are richer, and they also know that at this time, they are only Xia Yan's party above the court, and when the emperor proposes the court discussion, the result seems to be doomed, and they have a feeling of dying and struggling.

Alas, even the dying struggle can't change this outcome.

At this moment, their faces couldn't help but show a little unwillingness, reluctance, and even humiliation.

Jiajing then said: "If there is one, you must be punished, this time the governor of Datong, Liu Tianhe, was derelict in his duties, so that the Tartars wreaked havoc in Datong Town for two days, then he was demoted by two levels, demoted to the right concubine of Zhan Shifu, and the other generals of Datong Town were retained at two levels as punishment." ”

As soon as he said this, he didn't turn Xia Yanlei to the ground at the wrong point, and said that he would be dismissed and investigated, arrested and returned to Beijing, and tried by the Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and the Three Law Divisions of the Metropolitan Procuratorate?

Jiajing's meaning is actually to adopt the suggestion of Yang Ming's lineage, and the merit will be overcome, otherwise the crime of losing the border town will at least have to be dismissed, and the punishment of two levels of demotion can be said to be insignificant, after all, Liu Tianhe is still in the officialdom, and there is hope for a comeback in the future.

Yang Ming was also thundered when he heard this result, the emperor's words were a bit incompatible, they originally thought that they had lost to Xia Yan's party, but they never thought that the emperor was gasping for breath, and finally stood on their side again.

Of course, Jiajing's decision cannot be said to be completely on the side of the Yangming line, if he is completely on the side of the Yangming line, then he will not belittle Liu Tianhe, he is a little bit of a muddy feeling.

You Xia Yan and his party said that they would punish Liu Tianhe, okay, I will punish him and demote him by two levels.

You Yangming said that Liu Tianhe has merit, okay, then the merit will be offset and let Liu Tianhe continue to be an official in the court.

This result, Yang Ming is naturally happy to accept it, although Xia Yan is not happy, it is not easy to refute it, after all, Jiajing has already punished Liu Tianhe, and he jumped out again and insisted on dismissing Liu Tianhe and investigating it, it would be a bit excessive, what a big hatred, you have to put people to death like this!

Although he is arrogant, he is not stunned, he still knows the rules of officialdom, when the two sides do not have a deep hatred, it is best to stop in moderation, leave a line in everything, and see each other in the future, if you really do things absolutely, not only Liu Tianhe will hate him for the rest of his life, but other officials will also be afraid of alienating him.

Everyone actually knows that he doesn't have a deep hatred for Liu Tianhe, and the reason why he rectified Liu Tianhe is mainly because of Yang Cong's relationship.

At this time, the emperor has already opened the golden mouth, he wants to bite Liu Tianhe again, and he is suspected of bullying the king in person, he will not do this kind of stupid thing.

Although he already has a little contempt for Jiajing in his heart, the dignity of the monarch and the minister on the surface must still be maintained.

He could only grit his teeth, not say anything, and endure it.

As for Yan Song, he is much more refined than Xia Yan, and he knows Jiajing's temperament best, not only did he not show any dissatisfaction at this time, but he was "happy and convinced" and said: "The emperor is wise." ”

Jiajing nodded, Shengsheng took this sycophant, and then continued: "This has to be punished, and meritorious service will naturally be rewarded." ”

Speaking of this, Jiajing deliberately paused again.

The main reason why he organized the court meeting today was not for Liu Tianhe's affairs, but for the affairs of Xianning Hou Qiuluan and Yang Cong.

The reason why he put forward Liu Tianhe's matter for the ministers to discuss is actually a trick to attack the west, what he means is that the affairs of the northwest have been discussed by the court at this time, and those who should be punished have also been punished, and the next meritorious service should be rewarded.

If he proposes the reward at the beginning, it is estimated that the ministers are likely to strongly oppose it, and now the punishment is decided, and when it comes to rewards, it is estimated that the ministers will not be able to oppose it again, at least he thinks so.

When the ministers heard this, they all showed a slight look of shock, but no one jumped out to oppose it.

After all, having rewards and punishments is the way to do things, and everyone can't ask the emperor to only punish and not reward, isn't that wrong!

Jiajing saw that no one was angry, so he said slowly: "Xianning Marquis Qiuluan repelled the Tartar army twice, and he made great contributions, and he was specially promoted to the crown prince Shaobao, the governor of the three sides. ”

This result did not surprise everyone, after all, during this period of time, the officialdom in the capital was crazy about the Xianning Hou Qiuluan, although most people knew that someone was building momentum for the Xianning Hou Qiuluan, and they felt a little shameless, but they also knew that it was Xia Yan's party that created momentum for the Xianning Hou Qiuluan, and no one could stop the Xianning Hou Qiuluan's promotion to the official and the road to fortune.

Jiajing promoted Xianning Hou Qiu Luan to the crown prince Shaobao, the trilateral governor This result is barely acceptable to everyone, don't look at this prince Shaobao sounds very good, in fact, this is just a fictitious position, that is, in order to give Xianning Hou Qiu Luan a civil official title so that he can serve as the governor of the three sides, and the others seem to be nothing.

This Xianning Marquis Qiu Luan is a trilateral general system, and then a prince and a young prince are appointed as the governor of the trilateral, in fact, it is a change of soup but not medicine, and the power has basically not changed, but it just sounds a little bullish.

The promotion of Qiu Luan, the Marquis of Xianning, passed so silently, and then Jiajing continued: "Yang Cong, the governor of Xuanfu, defeated the Tartar army twice, and achieved amazing and outstanding achievements. ”

"Hum", as soon as his words came out, the ministers were obviously in a commotion, everyone knows that the emperor likes to promote people indiscriminately, but everyone didn't expect that this Yang Cong was promoted to the governor of Xuanfu for less than a year, and at this time, he was promoted two levels in a row, promoted to the squire of the military department, and the governor of Xuanda!

This, should it be opposed?

Of course, Xia Yan and Yan Song wanted to object, but they stood there awkwardly, not knowing how to speak, because they couldn't find a suitable reason.

When Jiajing said that he was promoted to Xianning Hou Qiuluan just now, they didn't open their mouths, and now they oppose the promotion of Yang Cong, what is the reason?

Everyone understands very well in their hearts, compared to meritorious service, Yang Cong is more than ten times stronger than Xianning Hou Qiuluan, shouldn't people be rewarded, shouldn't people be promoted?

For a while, no one could think of a reason to oppose it, and the matter was so decided!

Jiajing slowly glanced around, his face couldn't help showing a look of pride, he felt that his way of being the emperor had been practiced to the extent of perfection, and a move made the ministers speechless.
