This time, Wang Zhen can indeed be regarded as a man of his word, and he is full of words.

However, in two days, Ji Bin, who was transferred to the prison of the Criminal Department from Jinyiwei, was released from prison on the grounds that there was no evidence.

On this day, not only his family rushed to the criminal department to pick him up, but also some colleagues from the military department also arrived at the scene with concern. It's just that although he escaped death, Ji Bin has been tortured in the imperial prison, not only leaving an indelible scar on his face, but also one of his siblings, and he can no longer become an official again.

When they saw such a result, the joy of the officials of the military department quickly turned into anger and hatred. However, Ji Langzhong, who had been subjected to this catastrophe, seemed to be quite calm at the moment, only to see him weakly bow to the people around him and say: "Thank you colleagues for saving me from the sea of suffering, I can save this remnant life, and it is a blessing to return to my hometown with my wife and children from now on." The rest, no longer extravagant......"

Hearing him say this, everyone's hearts were even more uncomfortable. But the brocade guards were not something they could provoke at will, so they could only swallow back the words that came to their mouths, and saluted Ji Bin one after another to show their hearts.

Lu Jin, who was among these military officials, also had a special feeling, and it was only at this time that he understood how dangerous it was to be an enemy of Wang Zhen. The Ji Langzhong in front of him actually didn't have any grudges against Wang Zhen, just because he wanted to use him to meddle in the affairs of the military department, he had already ended up like this, if he wanted to attack himself, the result would only be ten times more serious.

The only thing to be thankful for is that he finally has a small name, and he is protected by Hu Hu Yuqian and other important ministers in the court, so that Wang Zhen and his factory guards dare not mess around.

It seems that in the next period of time, it is better to be careful and low-key, otherwise once someone really catches some handle, or fabricates some crime and deducts it on his head, and then he is taken to prison by the factory guards, I am afraid it will be extremely difficult to get out alive.

I have done enough for the court, and I have to think about the people around me and my own future in the future, in order to protect myself. Lu Jin secretly warned himself in his heart, so he didn't say anything at this time, so he bid farewell to Ji Bin with a group of colleagues, and then returned to the Yamen of the Ministry of War.

Soon after, Wang Zhen fulfilled another promise.

At a certain court meeting, an official of the household department proposed to the Son of Heaven to open more fields in the north to achieve the goal of living in peace with the Mongolian people.

There is no opposition to this. After decades of peace, in fact, no one in the world wants to see war, and now there is such a way to improve relations with the Mongolian people, which is naturally in line with the wishes of the vast majority of the people.

Perhaps some military attachés and nobles, or the young and vigorous Son of Heaven himself, are a little unimpressed by this. However, under the circumstances of the general trend and the desire of the people, it is not easy for them to move against the current and fall into an evaluation of great joy and recklessness. Therefore, this request was quickly approved by the Son of Heaven in public, and the relevant yamen were instructed to implement it as soon as possible, and to open all the venues one by one before this autumn.

Lu Jin, who was standing behind the ministers at that time, was also quite encouraged after hearing this will. Maybe after this incident, the Mongolian people and the Ming Dynasty will be able to live peacefully for more than ten or twenty years, so that the great war that happened next year in history will no longer exist, and the Ming Dynasty will really enter the heyday.

Some people may ask, is it possible that the opening of a field alone can eliminate the grievances between the two parties and eliminate a big war? The answer is, it is indeed quite possible.

Because for the Mongolian people, they would think of invading the Central Plains, and they no longer had the purpose of unifying the Central Plains like those ancestors hundreds of years ago. Even if they are as eloquent as they are, all they want at this time is to strengthen the ethnic group and make the tribesmen on the grassland live a better life, they simply do not have the strength to conquer the entire Central Plains.

In fact, some clues can be seen from the trajectory of historical development. At that time, it can be said that the first drive was invincible, and the soldiers pointed directly at the city of Beijing, putting on a posture of wanting to take the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and the momentum was very scary.

But in fact, his strategy is completely aimed at blackmail. If he really had a bigger idea, he didn't have to storm the fortified city of Beijing at all, he only needed to divide his troops to launch a surprise attack on the unprepared states and counties in North China, or come to a siege point to send reinforcements, which was enough to severely damage the national strength of the Ming Dynasty.

But as a result, he chose to garrison heavy troops under the city of Beijing, posing to attack the capital, his original intention was not so much to defeat the capital and destroy the Ming Dynasty, but to use force as a threat to seek more benefits. It's just that the toughness of the Ming officials surprised him, and there was a sufficiently stable and resolute Yu Qian, which made him collapse in the capital, and finally could only flee back to the grassland in disgrace, and since then he has been in a slump.

In fact, with the exception of a few extremely powerful steppe tribes, the real purpose of the general nomadic invasion of the Central Plains was only to seize more necessities of life, in order to live a more down-to-earth life. And now, since the Ming Dynasty is constantly increasing the number of trade fields, then there is naturally no need for them to sacrifice the lives of their clansmen for something that can be exchanged for cow wool skins.

Thinking of this, the corners of Lu Jin's mouth unconsciously curled slightly, and for a moment, he felt that he could really change the entire history of the Ming Dynasty.

Because once there was no such war, the Tumu Fort Incident would not have happened again. Zhu Qizhen, who is sitting on his head, will naturally not become one of the few kings of a country captured by the enemy in history.

In this way, Zhu Jianshen, the Chenghua Emperor who inherited his throne later, would not have that terrible childhood experience and cause a shadow. He may become a generation of promising Ming Jun, coupled with the efforts of the successor generation of benevolent Ming Jun Hongzhi Emperor Zhu Youjiao, it is also expected that the Ming Dynasty will enter the real heyday.

"Maybe that's why God let me travel hundreds of years to the Ming Dynasty. In order for me to change this tragedy with my own strength, so that this Ming Dynasty can truly enter the prosperous world! Thinking of this, Lu Jin clenched his fists with some excitement.

Different from his optimism, Hu Hui, who was at the forefront of the ministers, always felt a little uneasy in his heart, because Wang Zhen was too honest and cooperative this time, which was completely different from his previous style.

Based on Hu Hui's understanding of the prince, since he suffered such a big loss on Lu Zhen this time, even if he didn't retaliate openly, he would do something on the two conditions.

But the result? Except for Ji Bin, who was crippled and couldn't be an official because he was tortured, everything else was actually done as agreed before! Even if it was Ji Bin's matter, it was also done by Jinyiwei before, and it could not be regarded as Wang Zhen's revenge on this matter.

And today, he even made such a big fanfare that the matter of opening the court was raised in the court and let it pass smoothly. Did he really think that no one would know about the events of that day? Isn't he afraid that his prestige will be ruined?

Although Lu Zhen did not tell the matter, there is no impermeable wall in Beijing, and in the past few days, the rumor that the prince was once again deflated under Lu Jin's hands has been circulated in the officialdom and among the people. Although everyone didn't dare to say it in the open, they didn't talk about it in secret, and with Wang Zhen's eyes and ears, how could they not know all this?

In the past, he would definitely try his best to retaliate. Even if there is no way to take Lu Zhen for the time being, he will think of fooling those two conditions, so that he can deceive himself.

"It's not normal, it's so abnormal. What kind of medicine is he selling in the gourd, and what is the conspiracy? Looking at Wang Zhen, who was standing beside the Son of Heaven with an unpredictable smile on his face, his heart was tense for a while.

But after all, he could not see what the other party had, and it seemed that all this could not be changed, because the will had been given, and he had no reason to stand up against the decision to open up the field.

As for the other courtiers, their thoughts at this time were somewhat similar to Lu Jin's, but they were not as far and deep as he thought. But there is one thing that almost the vast majority of people have reached a consensus, with this will, the northern Xinjiang of the Ming Dynasty will be able to live a peaceful life again.

Therefore, when the dynasty was dispersed, most of the officials had satisfied smiles on their faces, and many people looked at Lu Zhen with a little more appreciation. It's just that because they may be hated by the prince, everyone didn't show it publicly.

But just when Lu Jin's prestige reached a high point again, he chose to keep a low profile and hibernat.

For a long time after that, as a member of the staff, he rarely interacted with people except for communicating with officials in the same office. Even, even Yu Qian and Hu Hu, the two bosses who cared for and protected him a lot, hardly came to visit him.

As for the outrageous things that can make him appear in front of everyone again, or some unexpected remarks or something, he won't even say and write, so he completely hides himself.

In the capital, where there are countless officials and people, there will always be all kinds of things happening every day, some people rise and fall, some people are famous all over the world, and some people are unknown from then on.

And Lu Jin, as he hoped, completely left people's sight in only one month and became one of the ordinary Beijing officials.

He thought that such a day would pass for several years, and after two years, it would not be too late for him to do something to regain the attention of the courtiers after he had accumulated a certain amount of seniority. But the world obviously won't go as he wants, and soon, a new errand was sent to the military department, and it fell on him, who is called a foreigner, but now the number one in the department!
