Zhu Yijun's smile. Above the lobby is visible to all. The same goes for you. What does Zhu Yijun's smile mean? For those who are in this court. Even if it's just the guards or the eunuchs. It's all understood. Zhu Yijun told them very clearly. Now he's angry.

However, even so. No one is worried. No one is afraid. And not just on the surface. People who didn't show a scared expression. Even if it's a little worried in my heart. None of them either. It's funny. The emperor was furious. And the object is the minister who is now standing below. But those people didn't mean to be scared in the slightest.

Doesn't that sound interesting. But it's also normal. After all. The current Zhu Yijun just holds the title of an emperor. But he did not have the rights of the emperor. And. Even if he was furious. Shouting to drag the men down. Hit a few large boards. Or simply take off the black veil and take off the official uniform. Someone will definitely stand up and stop him.

It's not something I can't figure out. The main thing is that these people dare to stand up. It's not just because Zhu Yijun is not powerful because of this matter. It's one thing to not have power. I'm afraid it's even more important. Zhu Yijun can't manage it if he wants to.

"How. In this way, this time he still didn't give Li Chengliang a penny. Zhu Yijun looked at the minister who spoke with a smile on his face. Asked. "This man is about to hit the head. I knew that the time would be full of war. The first to suffer must be the people of the Ming Dynasty. Nowadays, it only takes a little money to kill a lot of people. That's it. Or don't give. "Obviously. This moment. Zhu Yijun was really angry. Even the already unnatural smile on his face. It's all a little twisted now.

But. Even Zhu Yijun is already like this. But there are still people below who refuse to agree. It's not. Someone else has stepped forward. These are people who hardly talk on a daily basis. It's just at such a juncture. It's all popping up one after another. It's annoying at the same time. But there is no way. After all. They are courtiers. Now I have come forward to give my opinion. Case. Even if what they say doesn't make sense. But I can't punish them for that. Even. It's very difficult to get them to shut up.

In fact. This kind of thing is not uncommon. Since this is above the court. All those present except the emperor were ministers. A court proposal has been proposed. Naturally, it is necessary to speak widely. No matter how unreasonable the person who stands up and the words that come out are unreasonable. One might even say bastard. As long as it's not a big rebellion. Then there was no punishment for him. Or a reason not to let him speak. Not even the emperor.

Of course. Not all emperors won't say anything. Some will still speak. Here's an example. If it's a faint gentleman, it will.

If it's a faint man sitting on the dragon chair. Not to mention that this kind of thing is nothing. I'm afraid it's just a little bit against the will of the gods. I'm afraid that my life will be lost. It is not for nothing that it has seriously dragged down the family.

Of course. This is just an example. Not really. Although Zhu Yijun is still young. It is still unknown whether he will become a faint king in the future. One thing is certain, though. At least not now. Even if he wants to be a faint king. There is no such condition.

It's simple. Only the emperor with power after making the decision of a bastard. to be executed. And only after the decision of such a bastard has been carried out. The emperor who gives the order will be called the Emperor of the Faint.

Other words. There is only one point that matters. It depends on whether the emperor has real power. If the emperor has no real power in his hands. I'm afraid even if he is angry again. It doesn't matter if it makes sense to give an order. In the eyes of others. It's all just child's play.

And now. Zhu Yijun is actually facing such a problem. Now all the power of the imperial court is in the hands of his mother, Empress Dowager Li. And although he has the name of the emperor. But he had no real power.

So. Even if he says something at this time. It will also be regarded as child's play by those present.

Of course. Zhu Yijun is not unaware of this. So he didn't say anything. But. Just because he doesn't say anything doesn't mean he doesn't think about anything. And actually. At this moment, Zhu Yijun has already made up his mind in his heart. Someday. He is bound to make these people who look down on him pay the price.

And Zhang Fan, who has been watching these from the sidelines. I was quite puzzled in my heart. He didn't know why these people were doing this. He doesn't believe in this layer of things. He could imagine it. These people can't think of it. But these people are doing different things. Don't they understand? Wait until someday. After Zhu Yijun took power. The first to be unlucky must be these people. But these people are still doing the same. It's like digging your own grave.

But what about these people. To be honest, Zhang Fan didn't care much. For this kind just for their own benefit. And people who don't care about the righteousness of the country. Honestly, no one will feel sad when they die. But then again. It seems to say so. Suppress these people with carelessness. Something doesn't seem right. Let's put it another way. This matter is not only about the general interests of the country. It is even more related to the safety of so many people in Liaodong.

All in all. In that sense. The affairs of Liaodong cannot be passed just by "not giving money". Especially when things have come to this point. Now Wang Gao is actively preparing. Even Zhang Fan already has a way to deal with it. But only by those twenty people. It's okay to put it off a bit. But said they wanted to stop him. That's absolutely impossible.

Now that the matter has come to an end. Even if it's temporary. You have to do it. Not to mention. Don't say anything else. Judging from the news that Zhang Fan learned. In fact, Li Chengliang has already prepared everything. The manpower for the expansion of the six forts has also been arranged for a long time. Everything. As soon as the money arrives, the work can begin. And Zhang Fan has found someone to calculate. If it's stepped up. It doesn't really take long. Hurry up. It will be completed in three to five months. And this one is finished. It's not the kind of "tofu slag" project that cuts corners. It can withstand the test of military exploits. After all, those few places. Originally, it was built for military use. to defend against foreign enemies.

And now. Can't patronize these people. It can't be the same anymore. Just let these people speak, and those who have no objection stand up and speak.

And just when Zhang Fan wanted to stand up in person. But it was preempted. Someone spoke first. It's just this one who speaks. It really complicates things even more. The one who speaks. It is Zhu Yijun himself.

"Do you mean? It doesn't matter if you're dead. Zhu Yijun looked at those people again. Asked rhetorically. "You could have died less. You have to look at the corpses all over the field, don't you? ”

"Your Majesty. Since it's a war. How can that be the truth of immortality? One of them was still calm. Said. "If there are too many casualties. can only show that Li Chengliang is in vain. It is not worth taking on the post of commander-in-chief of Liaodong. It is better to replace it as soon as possible. Of course. If it's too bad. Even those uneducated Jurchens can't beat them. It's better to replace him now. ”

"You ......" Zhu Yijun pointed at him. Said. "I didn't say I was killed in battle. I'm talking about the ordinary people of Liaodong. If there are deaths or injuries among the people. So what to do. What Li Chengliang wants to do now. It is to reduce the number of casualties among the people. ”

"It's so much to spend just for that kind of thing. Wechen felt that this was not a good solution. "Someone spoke again.

"I tell you. If money can buy human lives. No matter how much. I'm willing to give. "These words don't look like Zhu Yijun, who loves money like his life, would say them." And also. This thing. The Queen Mother has agreed to let me decide. If you still don't want to. Then I will take the money out of my inner treasury. ”

"Your Majesty. This must not be done. "Immediately. Someone spoke again. "It's a war after all. If the money is taken out of His Majesty's treasury. Doesn't it mean that my Ming Dynasty has reached the time of strain. When the time comes to the reputation of the imperial court. It's really bad. ”

"It doesn't work either, it doesn't work either." Zhu Yijun stood up. "Don't you say. Obviously, I can do it. But it is for the court to guard this amount of silver. Watching those people who could have been saved being swept up in the scourge of war and dying. ”

"Your Majesty......" There seems to be someone below who wants to say something.

"Your Majesty. Wechen has something to say. Zhang Fan didn't give people a chance to speak. He stood up and spoke.

"Taifu has something to say. But it doesn't hurt to say that. Seeing Zhang Fan stand up. Zhu Yijun has eased a lot in both appearance and mood. After all. Zhang Fan has always been able to solve problems for him. And this time. In Zhu Yijun's view. Zhang Fan can stand up. It must have been an idea.

"Since it is inconvenient for the imperial court to pay this money. And if it is allocated by His Majesty's inner treasury, it is indeed unseemly. Zhang Fan said. Weichen thinks it's a different approach. ”

"Take a different approach. What does this mean, Taifu. Zhu Yijun was confused by Zhang Fan's words for a while. He really couldn't understand what Zhang Fan meant.

And those few people who have always been untroubled. also looked at Zhang Fan with a puzzled look. Apparently. They also didn't understand what Zhang Fan meant.

And Zhang Fan himself said it. The treasury does not pay for it. He won't force it either. And he himself does not agree that the money is coming out of Zhu Yijun.

And obviously. The imperial court uses money. It seems that there are only two paths. And now Zhang Fan has vetoed it. They really don't know. What was he going to do.

Weichen thinks. Wechen has been in the office since he came. He won the love of the emperor and His Majesty. Zhang Fan said. Wechen is beyond retribution. Now is the time. Wechen also wants to do some meager help. ”

"Taifu's mind is clear." Zhu Yijun still didn't understand. "I understand what Taifu means. But what does this have to do with today's events. ”

"Wechen is thinking. If this is all from Weichen than before. There's no problem with that. Zhang Fan spoke. Faces turned to the men. "I don't know what some adults think."
