Chapter Fifty-Six: The Dispute Between the Court

On the Jiade Palace, there was a snap, and the unicorn paperweight carved from white marble was smashed by Liu Hong.

"Haha, good!" Liu Hong's pale face was flushed with a sickly flush, looking at the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and said Sen Ran: "My good courtiers, all of them are full of economy and armor, which great sage can tell me why in just one month, the whole world is full of thieves and robbers?" ”

Since the last meeting of the court, although Luoyang has calmed down, but there are thieves in all parts of the Han world, first there is a resurgence of the Yellow Turban in Runan, and then Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Jingzhou, Yanzhou counties have appeared a large number of anti-thieves to cut off the main road, so that the local taxes can not be transported to Luoyang in time, from July to August, in just one month, the Han Dynasty that has been calm for a period of time seems to be full of smoke again.

Liu Hong had to drag his sick body to the court, just looking at the battle report, the world was full of thieves, as if in just one month, he had returned to the time of the Taiping Sect rebellion, Rao was mentally prepared, and Liu Hong still felt angry.

Yuan Kui was standing in the court, looking at his nose and nose, as if all this had nothing to do with him, He Jin scratched his head, the current situation made him feel a little bad, but where it was not good, He Jin was a little unspeakable.

Lu Zhi's face was gloomy, Ye Zhao looked at Yuan Kui, then at He Jin, and sighed, the scholar really lifted the table.

Seeing that no one answered, Ye Zhao stepped forward and bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, since it is a rebellion, it is not a way for us to discuss it here, and the minister is willing to lead the troops to quell the rebellion!" ”

"What is Aiqing's countermeasure?" Seeing Ye Zhao come out, Liu Hong breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid of singing as a one-man show.

"A little thief, why do you need to deal with it." Ye Zhao said abruptly: "Although the thieves and bandits in the world can't be cleared immediately, the court can pick some big fights, the remnants of the Yellow Turban in Runan, they escaped with their lives, they didn't want to hide, but they dared to jump out, so they suppressed it first, since the court gave them a chance, they didn't treat me themselves, and the minister was willing to personally lead the army to go out and completely slaughter the remnants of the Yellow Turban, so as to deter Xiaoxiao!" ”

As soon as Ye Zhao's words came out, the murderous intent overflowed, since the families dared to lift the table, then chop off their hands, it was only three things, since the promotion of books and printing technology had developed to this point, Ye Zhao would never allow it to be suppressed again.

The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were all taken aback by Ye Zhao's murderous tone.

Throughout Ye Zhao's participation in the war in the past, in addition to being ruthless to foreign races in the early days, he turned to the Central Plains, although his military exploits were great, but they were all based on pacifying and surrendering, but the killing was not heavy, so that many people forgot that the person in front of him was a ruthless person who dared to set fire to the city, Macheng was on fire, except for the elite of the Xianbei Royal Court, I don't know how many people were buried in that fire.

This time, Ye Zhao was obviously going to kill someone.

"Wei Wei is also guarding the palace, and the procuratorial department is under the heavy responsibility of military and political affairs, how can he leave Luoyang lightly?" Yuan Kui opened his eyes, looked at Ye Zhao and smiled.

"This official didn't take the Luoyang officials and troops to quell the rebellion." Ye Zhao bowed slightly and said to Liu Hong: "Your Majesty, I heard that the general sent people to Danyang a few years ago to collect more than 10,000 elite soldiers, and the minister is willing to lead this army of soldiers and horses to fight for thieves, and the defense of Luoyang can be commanded by His Majesty himself for the time being." ”

Danyang is a place to send elite soldiers, the year before last He Jin sent Wu Qiu Yi to recruit troops, this Danyang soldier belongs to He Jin, and it is also one of He Jin's hole cards, and now Ye Zhao is like this with He Jin to ask for soldiers, if this Danyang elite soldiers want to come, He Jin's troops will be greatly reduced, plus the eight schools in the city, in Luoyang, Liu Hong will have enough strength to crush He Jin.

No matter how stupid He Jin is, he can also hear the problem, if he transfers the Danyang elite soldiers, he will really become meat on the chopping board, and hurriedly stepped forward and bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the Danyang elite soldiers will not be in the army for a long time, if they go to the battlefield at this time, the losses will be huge, and they are not trained, they cannot be banned, but they will delay the military aircraft." ”

"What the general said is not unreasonable, then without Danyang soldiers, can the general transfer the Yulin Army and the five schools of the Northern Army to the lower officer?" Ye Zhao looked at He Jin and said with a smile.

"If there is peace today, there are thieves everywhere, the five schools of the Northern Army and the Yulin Army have the responsibility of guarding the Beijing Division, and they must not be moved lightly, Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that it is right to order the state pastors and Taishou to spontaneously gather soldiers and horses to exterminate the thieves." Yuan Kui looked at Liu Hongdao.

"Speaking of which......" Ye Zhao looked at Yuan Kui, suddenly showed a sneer, turned to look at Liu Hongdao: "Jizhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, these five state pastors during their tenure, the state and county breed thieves, the ministers think that these state pastors, too afraid of the loss of morality, resulting in the life of the people under their rule, will be full of thieves, thieves everywhere, these state pastors, too shou can not escape the blame, the imperial court should immediately send virtuous people to take over, and the generals of the other states and counties sit back and watch the thieves disturb the situation and are indifferent, causing my Han to shake, These five states should abolish the state pastoral system, and the state and county soldiers and horses should be taken over by the imperial court again! ”

Yuan Kui raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and looked at Ye Zhao with a sneer, but Ye Zhao looked at Yuan Kui with a sneer: "I don't know what Taifu thinks?" ”

"Wei Wei's words are a bit too heavy, these five state governors and Taishou may be suspected of dereliction of duty, but they are all virtuous people, how can they be easily replaced?" Yuan Kui bowed down and said, "I hope Your Majesty will think twice." ”

"Your Majesty." Ye Zhao arched his hand at Liu Hongyi and said: "I think that what Taifu said is the crux of my dynasty!" ”

"Oh?" Liu Hong saw that Yuan Kui was panicked, but he calmed down, looked at Ye Zhao and smiled: "Then what is Ye Qing's opinion?" ”

"I don't dare to do it." Ye Zhao arched his hand and said: "The minister also admires these virtuous people, but for the first term of the official, what he wants is ability, what he wants is to be able to benefit the people, not just to refer to virtue, virtuous and incompetent people steal high positions, the minister thinks that it is destroying my Han country, I am above today's officialdom, too much attention to the ability to see as nothing, the minister believes that these five state governors, Taishou may be virtuous people, but these virtuous people can not seek the well-being of the people, but the people who are tired of the war are powerless, such virtuous people are in a high position, I am afraid that it is more harmful than those who have power but no virtue! ”

"What Ye Qing said also has some truth." Liu Hong smiled and nodded, but after speaking, his face turned pale and coughed, and Zhang Rang on the side hurriedly stepped forward to help him calm down.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks what Wei Wei said is ridiculous!" Wang Yun saw that Yuan Kui's face was ugly, so he took a step forward and bowed down and said, "According to what Wei Wei said, if a person without virtue can be in a high position if he has some ability, wouldn't it make the world's soldiers even more chilling?" According to Weiwei's words, after a hundred years, wouldn't the court be full of treacherous people? ”

"That's a mistake!" Ye Zhao shook his head and said: "Sage Yun, who has no fault, knows that mistakes can be changed, and good is great, but in today's government and government, once the reputation of the scholar is lost, the court will not hire him, and he will not even give a chance to reform himself, and the minister thinks that this move is a big mistake!" If the court governs the world, it is not to do learning, the most important thing is to make the country and the people safe, if they are all pedantic people who only know how to talk on paper in a high position, but those who have earth-shattering talents, but only because of some bad deeds will not be tolerated in the court, in the long run, the court is left with some virtuous but no vision, this kind of situation, for the court, is not a good thing! The minister thought that he could choose some from among those scholars who were capable, but were driven out of the court because of some inconsequential bad deeds, and replace the governors, taishou, and generals of the five states! ”

"No!" Wang Yun's face changed drastically and said: "How can such immoral people be hired again?" ”

"Immorality?" Ye Zhao turned his head to look at Wang Yun and said, "These people may be immoral, but what about the state pastor Taishou who makes thieves rampant in the five states?" They are guilty! Which is more important? Is Wang Yilang really blind? ”

"You ......" Wang Yun was furious, and pointed at Ye Zhao with his halberd, but he couldn't speak.

"Your Majesty!" Yuan Kui sighed, bowed to Liu Hong and said: "The old minister thinks that it may not be that the officials of these five states are incompetent, but they are actually thieves and cunning, and they are in a hurry, so they are panicked, why don't Your Majesty give them a chance again." ”

"Oh?" Liu Hong looked at Yuan Kui and said, "What is the chance?" ”

"Give them another month, and if they can't pacify the thieves within a month, they will be dismissed from their posts according to the words of the guard, and another person will be selected to serve in another position, and if they can, they will be asked to stay in their posts, so as to see what the aftermath will be?" Yuan Kui bowed and said.

When Liu Hong heard this, a heartbeat flashed in his eyes.

"Your Majesty!" Ye Zhao's heart sank, this sound like a military order, but Ye Zhao knew very well that these thieves were made by these people at all, and when they were pacified, it was a matter of these people's words, not to mention a month, half a month, and immediately bowed his hand to Liu Hong: "Freezing three feet is not a day's cold, the mob is raging, it is caused by the accumulation of these officials, it is calm, if these officials continue to do this, he will force the people to rebel in the future!" ”

"Ye Xiuming!" Yuan Kui suddenly shouted and glared at Ye Zhao angrily: "Are these officials and hateful to you?" To do so to them? ”

"Zhao Yixin is only for the sake of the imperial court, and he has no selfish intentions!" Ye Zhao said coldly.

"Huh, selfless? You ......" Wang Yun wanted to ridicule disdainfully, but was interrupted by Liu Hong.

"Enough!" Liu Hong slapped the table and stood up, frowned and said: "This is the court, not a market, if you want to make a noise, get out of the noise for me!" ”

Ye Zhao turned his head and looked at Liu Hong.

Liu Hong sighed and said: "As Taifu said, give them a one-month deadline, and after one month, see the after-effects!" ”

"Your Majesty is wise!" Yuan Kui smiled slightly and bowed.

Scold~

Ye Zhao looked at Liu Hong, shook his head, and bowed to Liu Hong with the hundred officials.

After Liu Hong finished speaking, he was already a little out of breath, and seeing that the matter had been resolved, he immediately announced the dissolution of the dynasty and turned to leave.

"Wei Wei's keen thinking and grandeur of handling things really opened the old man's eyes, but this world is like chess, and he may not be able to do everything as he likes, Wei Wei is still young, and it is inevitable that he will be impulsive, and this kung fu of nourishing qi still needs to be sharpened." Yuan Kui looked at Ye Zhao and said with a smile.

"Don't worry about it, Zhao has his own measure." Ye Zhao smiled and smiled at Yuan Kui, as if there had never been a dispute before.

"Okay~" Yuan Kui didn't say anything more, turned around and left surrounded by the ministers, Ye Zhao raised his eyes, except for a few people such as Lu Zhi and Ma Riyan, there was no one in this court by his side, he couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, and after saying hello to Lu Zhi and the others, he left the Jiade Hall directly.
