After receiving Liu Juntao's reply, Yu Qian also sighed, although he was very dissatisfied with some of Liu Juntao's practices, but thinking about it carefully, since Liu Juntao's rise, he has indeed spared no effort for the bloody territory of the imperial court, and has not done anything to disturb the imperial court.

"Alas! The world is unpredictable, and let's see how Shandong Town will happen in the future! ”

But it didn't take long for the Chinese officials to make waves again.

Although Chen Xun, the first assistant of the cabinet, has died down, many ministers of civilian power are still unwilling to fail, so they spend their hearts on the money and food of the soldiers in various towns.

Taking advantage of Emperor Jingtai's serious illness and temporary inability to govern, these civil officials united with the head of the household department and cut the money and grain of the Jiubian Military Town and Shandong Town by 20% on the grounds that the imperial court had a huge deficit!

At this time, not only did the general soldiers in various places blow up their nests, but even Yu Qian, the secretary of the military department, and Shi Heng, the governor of the right capital, couldn't sit still, and the two stood together very rarely, and united many ministers to start a counterattack.

For a time, there was a lot of chaos in the court, and even Emperor Jingtai, who had not been in charge of government for more than a month, had to drag his seriously ill body to sit in the Jinluan Hall again and began to deal with the battle between the court and the court.

In fact, this is also quite simple, after Emperor Jingtai figured out the reason, he directly issued an order to reprimand the Hubu Shangshu, and then disposed of several leading Wenchen, and ordered the Hubu to make up for the money and grain owed to the towns of Jiubian and Shandong within a month, and issued an order to the towns, Haosheng condolences.

At this court meeting, Chen Xun, the first assistant of the cabinet, Yu Qian, the secretary of the military department, Shi Heng, the governor of the right capital, Xu Youzhen, the imperial history of the left capital, and others were all present, and everyone was surprised in their hearts.

The reason why everyone was surprised was not because Emperor Jingtai had reprimanded the civil officials and maintained the generals, after all, those civil officials were so dizzy that they rashly moved against the elite of the nine sides and Shandong Town, and Emperor Jingtai must be on the side of the soldiers, there is no doubt about it.

Everyone was surprised because Emperor Jingtai, who had not been seen for many days, was already seriously ill, and it was not enough to describe Emperor Jingtai with the word terminally ill.

I saw that Emperor Jingtai's face was yellow and thin, and even he needed to walk with the eunuch Cao Jixiang with two little eunuchs to support him left and right, even so, Emperor Jingtai was trembling when he walked, where was the dragon power of the past?

At this time, Emperor Jingtai no longer looked like a middle-aged person at all, he was completely looking like a man in his last years, Shi Heng and Xu Youzhen even secretly thought in their hearts, maybe Emperor Jingtai would suddenly die in the next moment!

But then the two of them shrank slightly, as if they were afraid that their thoughts would be seen by others.

On this day, the court meeting dispersed, and all the courtiers went home separately.

However, when Xu Youzhen, the imperial historian of the left capital, was about to arrive at the door of the house, he suddenly asked the sedan chair man to turn around and rushed from the path to the mansion of Shi Heng, the governor of the right capital.

If it were in the past, Xu Youzhen would definitely be very cautious, and if there was no public affairs, he would never go to Shiheng Mansion during the day, so as not to make the ministers of the court and China think too much.

But today, when he saw Emperor Jingtai's appearance, a string in Xu Youzhen's heart completely relaxed, and he went straight to Shiheng's mansion.

After the two met, Shi Heng withdrew from the left and right people, and Xu Youzhen was even more direct and asked in a low voice: "Du Du, what do you think of what you see today?" ”

"What is Lord Xu's opinion?"

Xu Youzhen pondered for a while, and then said: "We have been discussing such a major matter for so long, and now that Your Majesty is terminally ill, it is a good time for us to wait for a long time. ”

Hearing this, Rao is Shi Heng was calm, and he couldn't help but be moved, and his face changed a few times.

"Now that the DPRK is unstable, those civilian officials in the DPRK have just finished wrestling with military generals from all over the country, is it too sensitive to act at this time?"

Xu Youzhen couldn't help but sigh secretly when he heard this: This Shi Heng doesn't look arrogant and decisive on weekdays, but when it comes to the key, he begins to be indecisive, such a major event must be stable, accurate, and ruthless, and must not look forward to the future, otherwise it will definitely fail!

So, Xu Youzhen said: "Governor! This matter is already on the bow, and it has to be sent! Now that the DPRK is unstable, it is just a great opportunity for us to act in secret, and the attention of the whole court is attracted by the civil and military disputes, how many people can still stare at that position! ”

After thinking about it for a while, Shi Heng slapped his forehead suddenly, he was dark under the lamp, just thinking about stability, he didn't need such a big time, he almost missed it!

"It's good! God does not take it, but suffers from it! Let's get started! ”

Xu Youzhen was also excited, even a little excited, and said: "As the saying goes: wealth is in danger!" As long as we join forces to rescue the Emperor, then we will be from the dragon in the future, what glory, wealth, high-ranking officials and Houlu are not! ”

"Well said!"

Xu Youzhen's words suddenly made Shi Heng's blood surge: "As long as we rescue the Emperor, we will be great heroes, and the glory and wealth of the next few lifetimes will be here!" ”

Then, Shi Heng said again: "Cao Jixiang's side is very critical, find an opportunity to send someone into the palace, let Cao Jixiang's side keep an eye on it, and stabilize His Majesty and the Emperor Taishang, as long as we don't do it here, there must be no mistakes in the palace!" ”

Xu Youzhen nodded heavily and said, "I'll do this matter personally, and I'll find a reason to enter the palace tomorrow." ”

"And King Yi (former prince Zhu Jianshen) must also send someone to protect him, before rescuing the emperor, King Yi must not have any mistakes!"

Xu Youzhen agreed very much and said, "I'm afraid this matter will bother the governor." ”

"Hmm!"

Shi Heng said: "I personally deployed manpower in this matter, and no one can see the traces!" But ......"

Speaking of this, Shi Heng's face suddenly changed, and he began to worry.

Seeing this, Xu Youzhen also understood, and said: "However, there is still Yu Qian, the secretary of the military department in the court, and Liu Juntao, the chief military officer of Shandong Town, these two people are not easy to match, we must start to act, we must properly settle these two people, otherwise it will be difficult to succeed!" ”

Shi Heng nodded and said: "Yu Qian, the secretary of the Ministry of War, is better to say, if he is interested, if he is not interested, at best, after rescuing the Emperor Taishang, he can solve it with an edict." It's just that this Liu Juntao is not easy to handle, you must know that he has more than 100,000 Tiance troops in his hands! ”

Both of them knew very well in their hearts that once a coup d'état was launched, if Liu Juntao openly supported Emperor Jingtai at that time, his side would definitely have no way to compete with it, even if he held the orthodox emperor of Emperor Taishang at that time.

If people support Emperor Jingtai, they don't even recognize the legitimacy of Emperor Taishang, and directly raise troops to Qingjun's side, Shi Heng and Xu Youzhen really have no choice but to sit and wait for defeat.

Shi Heng and Xu Youzhen discussed for a long time, and finally the two combined with what Liu Juntao has done over the years, thinking that as long as the two do not affect the local area and do not cause social turmoil~ chaos, Liu Juntao is very likely not to jump out directly.

When Xu Youzhen was governing the Yellow River in Shandong, he talked about the throne with Liu Juntao, thinking that Liu Juntao was only loyal to the Ming Dynasty and Huaxia, and he didn't really care about who was sitting on the throne!

Shi Heng also agreed, after all, Shi Heng also knew Liu Juntao very well.

So, Shi Heng and Xu Youzhen discussed it properly and started to act according to the plan made before, and the two began to prepare to gather people separately, and began to contact Cao Jixiang, the eunuch who had been guarding Emperor Jingtai's side.

On that day, Xu Youzhen had been staying in Shiheng Mansion until late at night, and when Xu Youzhen walked out of Shifu, he felt that he was very excited, and his legs were fluttering, as if he was stepping on the clouds, which was so unreal.

"If you don't succeed this time, you will become a benevolent, as long as this move is successful, I, Xu Youzhen, can soar to the sky!"

Thinking of this, Xu Youzhen walked on the empty street in a sedan chair, and her heart was hot.
