The imperial court sent me south to lead the army to conquer the Dongwu Kingdom. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
In a word, the originally harmonious atmosphere of the table becomes strange.
It was quiet for a while,
"What? A month and a half? Going south to conquer the Dongwu Kingdom? No, fourth, didn't you come back after fighting the Japanese Kingdom? Why do you have to go again? ”
"That's right! Fourth, your side has just returned from a victorious battle, and the court is not without generals, why do you only give you a month and a half of leave to lead the army south? And it's still so south? It's not in order! When the general returns from commanding the troops, there is no rule for immediately leading the troops south! ”
"Yes, fourth, what does the court say? This is too impersonal! The fourth sister is still pregnant, and she is about to give birth, so the court won't let you even be able to make the child's full moon wine, right? So what did the court give us three months of vacation for? We came back for a family reunion, if the family can't be reunited, what are we going to do this holiday? ”
The eldest and second and third were very angry and upset for Xiao Ruxun, only the father calmed down, slapped the table, and told the three brothers to calm down.
"Shut up! The meaning of the court is the meaning of His Majesty, and the meaning of His Majesty is the holy decree, as military generals, we must obey Your Majesty's will! It's the rule! If we break this rule, none of us will have a hard time! In the future, whether in public or in private, even if you are only facing your own family, your father will never allow you to say a bad word about Your Majesty! Did you hear me clearly?! ”
Xiao Wenkui is unprecedentedly serious, Xiao Ruxun thinks that he is very serious, because in this spy country, you never know if you have a Jinyiwei or Dongchang agent who specializes in serving the royal family, even if it is in the current Xiao Mansion, is there really no emperor's secret agent or a secret agent of a certain big man? With Xiao Ruxun's current status and situation, this possibility is not low.
At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang was red-eyed in the fight against killing, everyone in the ministers was in danger, and they didn't dare to say a word at home, and the brocade guards of that era were as pervasive as cockroaches, and that era was the era when it was really necessary to be cautious in words and deeds, but the times were different, and the situation was different.
Unlike the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, it is the emperor's control over the country's courtiers, which depends on the strength and power held by the emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang almost controlled everything, so he killed the meritorious courtiers under the special killer, and no one dared to resist, Zhu Di also almost mastered everything, so even if he punished Fang Xiaoru's ten clans, even if he conquered Mobei five times, his country was still stable, but after that, the emperors gradually lost control of their courtiers.
The Tumubao Incident was a turning point, indicating that the Ming Dynasty emperor began to be unable to control the expansion of the power of his courtiers, and the gun that the emperor relied on to fight against Wenchen was snatched away by Wenchen, and Emperor Jingtai faced Qian like a well-behaved little quail, and then neither the restoration of Yingzong nor the new emperor's accession to the throne could change this situation, until Emperor Jiajing regained some of his authority with the Great Rites Discussion Incident, and he could re-suppress his courtiers.
However, this kind of suppression also failed because Emperor Jiajing did not support the forces that confronted the civil officials in time, Emperor Jiajing hated the eunuchs, did not give the eunuchs real power, did not like military affairs, and did not give the generals a chance to turn over, so the civil officials were just confused for 20 years, and after 20 years, after the Jiajing Emperor's routine was found out, the civil officials began to fight back again.
This time, even the Jinyi Guard was infiltrated.
At a precarious moment, Zhang Juzheng, the animal trainer, made his debut, yes, he is a civil official, but as a top civil official who has recently taken over the prime minister or even surpassed the prime minister, he should have been the leader of the civil alliance, but because of the strict reform, he has become the mortal enemy of the vast majority of civil officials, so he is also a natural ally of the emperor.
He helped the emperor regain Jinyiwei and part of his authority, but unfortunately Xiao Wanli was brainwashed by civil officials very successfully, and almost all of Zhang Juzheng's efforts were destroyed.
So now, the civil officials are almost not worried that they will be monitored by the Jinyi Guard, and the generals are not worried about the Jinyi Guard, but the eyes of the civil officials, although those pervasive guys are not the Jinyi Guard, but they are doing the same thing as the Jinyi Guard, suppressing the military generals, but they are also worried that some too strong generals will come out and have the possibility of snatching authority, so they must be suppressed in advance.
Now the people they are most afraid of are no longer the Li father and son, but the Xiao family and the Xiao family, and they have a different mind to reunite their father and son like this.
Xiao Wenkui has been in the Jingshi for decades, and he knows everything clearly, and he has also seen the people of the Dingguo family pull out a traitor who works for an unknown person and beat him to death, killing chickens to show the monkey, but except for the five top gate valves, no military general dares to do this.
Nowadays, the generals of the Ming Dynasty are not much better than the generals of the Song Dynasty, the difference is only the depth of degree and traditional views, of course, there are still a few families with a little bit of face.
The brothers of the Xiao family are not stupid, seeing their father's eyebrows and eyes, they suddenly realized, everyone honestly closed their mouths and sat down, although so, but the anger in the stomach did not know where to vent, just calm down and think about it, and feel that this matter is not a bad thing.
"For our generals, it is the best thing to have a war to fight, without a war, there is no need for our generals to exist, it is better to have a war to fight than to have no war to fight."
Xiao Ruzhi said.
Xiao Rulan didn't think so: "It's a good thing to have a war to fight, but it doesn't take it, there is no such precedent before, this side just finished fighting that side will be fought again, when did the Ming Dynasty have such a precedent, and both times the same main general was used, the period was only a month and a half, unless the entire southern Xinjiang was in an emergency, it was understandable to urgently use the general, but now it's just a matter of Yunnan Province, I haven't heard of it, which proves that it is not a big deal, why is it so eager to go to the south of the old four?" ”
Xiao Ruhui said coldly: "Isn't this obvious? Anyone with a discerning eye can see it, but we don't say it, if we say it, it won't be good for anyone! ”
After speaking, Xiao Ruhui looked at Xiao Ruxun and said: "Fourth, since this matter is irreparable, you should go and talk to the fourth sister, the fourth sister is the most bitter these days, and it is only a month and a half, you have to go on an expedition again, or go to such a far place, and you don't know when you will come back, so it is reasonable that you should accompany the fourth sister more." ”
Xiao Ruxun nodded: "I know, I will go and make it clear to Caiyun, but there is something I want to discuss with my brother and father." ”
