Seven hundred and fifty-eight that day
Xiao Ruxun knew that Shen would not let himself run around under his nose so easily, challenging his authority.
At this time when he is about to take up the post of first assistant, what he needs is stability, authority, and a good sense of him from the outside world, so that people can believe that he can lead Daming to a better tomorrow.
So he definitely won't let Xiao Ruxun take much of the limelight.
But he didn't expect that he dug a big hole for himself here, let himself jump into it, and directly entangled himself, unable to move, he calmly and slowly cleaned himself up.
But there is no doubt that this is an opportunity.
Those who have succeeded in seizing power since ancient times, either mastering the bureaucracy to launch a coup d'Γ©tat or the army to launch a mutiny, have their own basic plates, not just a showmanship.
Zhu Yijun's military power and political power are actually all showmanship, and the real lintel is in the hands of the cabinet and the upper-level bureaucrats headed by Shen Yijun, who combine military power and political power.
Therefore, Zhu Yijun cannot defeat them, and if he wants to defeat them, he must at least regain one of the political power and military power.
Zhu Houzhao tried to seize military power, and he achieved some results, but unfortunately, he fell overboard and then died.
Zhu Houzhang tried to seize power, and he succeeded for thirty years, then he was seen through the routine, and later he also died.
After Zhu Yijun calmed down, he fully referred to the methods and final results of the two emperors, combined with his previous failed experience, and chose the strategy of stabilizing the regime while holding the military power.
Unlike the other two emperors, he had Xiao Ruxun, a general with great prestige in the army, who decided to use Xiao Ruxun as a breakthrough to regain military power, and then use military power as a basis to forcibly regain power.
He obviously believes that military power is more reliable and important than political power, otherwise Zhu Houxuan would not have lived so much longer than Zhu Houzhao.
So Zhu Yijun knew that this was a very difficult thing, and he reassured Xiao Ruxun and said: "I also know that Xungui has deep roots in the Beijing camp, and all kinds of relationships are entangled, and it is indeed a little difficult for you to fully take charge of the Beijing camp.
But Xiao Qing, I can only believe in you, you will definitely be able to clean up the Beijing camp and revitalize the Beijing camp, the day you revive the Beijing camp is the day when you and I will put things right, before that, Xiao Qing, I can only embarrass you! β
Zhu Yijun doesn't seem to know anything, although it's difficult, but it's better to do it than not to do it.
"The minister will live up to His Majesty's expectations!"
Xiao Ruxun can only say so.
But he still has no clue how to clean up the Beijing camp and how to face the difficulties and counterattacks of the noble forces against him.
Zhu Yijun nodded.
"I must tell you that at the moment, I have no military power in my hands, and I cannot directly command any of the men and horses beyond the cabinet and the military department, including the palace guards, Xiao Qing, the first thing you will do after you take office is to take the power of the palace guards for me.
If you need manpower, I ordered Zhang Cheng to secretly train a team of men and horses in Xishan outside the Beijing Division, which can be handed over to you at any time. β
Xiao Ruxun was stunned for a moment.
"Your Majesty...... Training in the West Mountains? β
Zhu Yijun nodded helplessly: "Since being joined forces by Wang Xijue and the Queen Mother, I deeply feel that there is no one available in my hands, let alone soldiers, last year, the weather was very cold, and there were a large number of hungry people outside the Beijing Division, I asked Zhang Cheng to go out of the palace to secretly recruit dead soldiers for me, and train in Xishan, the number of people is enough for three thousand."
Originally, after knowing the incident in Shanxi, I was a little dizzy, and planned to use these 3,000 people plus the army brought back by Xiao Qing to participate in the prisoner sacrifice ceremony, and directly start to control the Jingshi, but then I calmed down and found that there were too many problems in doing so.
Later, when discussing rewarding you, Shen always suggested to me that you should be in charge of the Beijing camp and train the soldiers of the Beijing camp, and I thought that if I could let you take charge of the Beijing camp, then all problems could be solved. β
Xiao Ruxun was just about to say something, but Zhu Yijun waved his hand: "I know what you want to say, Shen has always been not at ease, he pointed to turning Jingying into a place to trap you, so that you can't use your hands and feet, and by the way, it can be convenient for him to suppress you, don't worry, with me, other people can't control it, but he Shen has always been able to manage it." β
It turned out that the emperor also knew that this old guy was not well-intentioned.
Xiao Ruxun nodded.
"Your Majesty is thoughtful and admired, but has Your Majesty ever imagined what to do after taking control of Jingshi? Even if His Majesty controls the Beijing camp and controls the Jingshi and the ministers, but the Ming Dynasty cannot be left unattended for a day.
The minister suggested that His Majesty should not use too direct methods to hold the ministers accountable, but should adopt a more gentle and gradual method to ensure the stability of the court situation and regain power, otherwise the world will be unstable, which is not the blessing of the Ming Dynasty. β
Zhu Yijun smiled and said: "Aiqing can have such an insight, I am very relieved, I know that this world is still the world of the Ming Dynasty, and what I do is related to the views of the people of the world on the Ming Dynasty, although I was very angry for a while, but now, I have calmed down."
I know what to do and what not to do, I also know that freezing three feet is not a day's cold, I will not mess up, I want to be the first emperor, I want to be a Han martial artist, after regaining military power, I naturally have a way to get back other things. β
Xiao Ruxun also knew that he had nothing to say, and what happened after that was not predictable at the moment, there might be more things to do in the future, and more troubles were waiting for him.
As for Myanmar......
"Your Majesty, if the minister stays in Jingshi, then Myanmar ......"
Xiao Ruxun didn't finish speaking, and Zhu Yijun nodded to indicate that he understood.
"Aiqing, you have trained 30,000 elite soldiers in Burma, haven't you?"
Xiao Ruxun nodded: "The minister was edicted to train 30,000 elite soldiers to guard southern Xinjiang, and the soldiers in Zhennan were full of fine food, which can be used, and now in charge of government affairs in Myanmar is Yuan Huang, who painted for the ministers in the battle of Korea, and he resigned three years ago at the request of the ministers to go out of the mountains to help." β
"That's good, Myanmar is an extra trump card in my hand, and I can't move it lightly, after Aiqing was crowned the Duke of Qin, I gave the title of Marquis of Zhennan to Aiqing's eldest son Xiao Guoliang, and then gave Myanmar tax reduction and exemption for three years, and Myanmar let Yuan Qing continue to guard.
The capital is dangerous, I can't let Aiqing's family come to the capital to risk their lives, Aiqing will endure for some time, naturally, Aiqing wants to keep in touch with Myanmar, at a critical moment, these 30,000 soldiers and horses can be of great use. β
Zhu Yijun commanded.
"Obey the order!"
Zhu Yijun is intimate, and Xiao Ruxun's worries have also been relieved, and without worries, Xiao Ruxun can focus all his energy on the Beijing camp issue, fight wits and courage with the nobles, and hold the military power of the Beijing camp in his hands.
It's just that this road is destined to be dangerous, there are too many people who make money by eating empty salaries, and there are too many people who rely on the gilded resume of the Beijing camp, if you want to cheer up the Beijing camp, in addition to the emperor's order and support, Xiao Ruxun also needs other support.
At this time, Shi Xing's support is very important.
Shi Xing is the Minister of Defense, can the revitalization of the Jingshi Military Region bypass Shi Xing?
I don't know if Shi Xing received the letter.
