"The so-called country cannot be without a king for a day, Shenjing has fallen, the people's hearts are scattered, and the top priority is to set up a new king, announce the world, stabilize the situation, and then clean up the people's hearts in order to recover! I wonder what Master Ma said? Shi Kefa couldn't help but express what was in his heart. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Seeing that Shi Kefa finally couldn't help it, Ma Shiying was proud in his heart, but there was a sad expression on his face: "Such a major matter should be decided by the center, how can a student be asked by a local official?" Master Shi is in charge of the military department, he is in a high position, and he is the head of Shilin, at this moment, it is up to you to turn the tide, and the student is willing to be a pawn in front of the big Sima Ma, and he will not hesitate to do so! ”

Ma Shiying's words were high-sounding, but they were not what Shi Kefa wanted to hear. Now the establishment of a new monarch is the first priority to stabilize the situation and clean up the hearts of the people, if the throne is vacant, how can the people of the world serve the country loyally? There are three candidates at the moment, and what he wants to hear is which one Ma Shiying wants to support.

"The horse-made platform is too famous! At the time of the national crisis, it is imperative to set up a new monarch, and the students are here to ask your opinion! ”

"This! Thanks to Da Sima's attention, the students are very grateful, but this is a great matter of establishing a king, and it is really inconvenient for the servants to say more, and I hope that Da Sima will forgive me! ”

Supporting the new monarch is related to the rise and fall of the world, and it is also related to the future and fate of tens of millions of families, Ma Shiying does not want to interfere, but the court has a system, as the governor, his power only extends to the locality, this kind of important matter related to the national system, he really has no name to act. Unless......

"Yaocao!"

In order to pull in the relationship between the two, he tentatively called Ma Shiying's words, but he did not commensurate with his official position, seeing that Ma Shiying was no different, he still looked at himself sincerely, Shi Kefa gritted his teeth and said straightly, "The military affairs of the governor of Yaocao, Luzhou, Fengyang and other places, and the military power of the handkerchief, is really the reliance of the southern capital!" When the national disaster is at the head, the neighbors are not here for anything else, I only hope that you and I can work with one heart and one mind, turn the tide, rejuvenate the emperor, and achieve a thousand years of achievements! ”

"What the neighbors said is extremely true! At this time of crisis, it is time to work together inside and outside to tide over the difficulties together! However, Yaocao is in a humble position, this is a major event in the court, it is indeed inconvenient to say more, the neighbor is the soldier, the prime minister is a soldier in the world, presumably there must be a policy to determine the country and the country, Yaocao has everything! Now that the words have been clarified, Ma Shiying is no longer hypocritical, he said so sincerely.

"Yao Cao has said it!" Ma Shiying's words made Shi Kefa's heart feel comfortable, and he also became a little closer to Ma Shiying, and said, "How dare you talk about the policy of determining the country's security and security, but you are worried about the current situation." The princes fell into the hands of thieves, life and death are unknown, and the country cannot be without a king for a day, this is a top priority. Foolishly think that the people who can stand at the moment are Lu, Gui, and Fu, but I don't know what Yaocao thinks? ”

Ma Shiying pretended to ponder deeply for a moment, stroked his beard, sighed for a long time, and asked, "What do you think?" ”

Shi Kefa weighed Ma Shiying's thoughts, and shook his head: "It's really difficult for students to choose!" ”

"How's the discussion between the DPRK and China?"

"Ahem, cough!" Shi Kefa put those words on his lips a few times, but still did not reveal them.

Ma Shiying knew that he was worried, so he asked in a low voice, "Is it Fu Fan?" ”

Shi Kefa shook his head.

"Katsura Domain?"

Shi Kefa still shook his head.

"Could it be Lu Fan?!"

Shi Kefa pondered for a moment, nodded with difficulty, and said: "Now the ministers left behind in the southern capital are all between the Fu Domain and the Lu Domain, and there are different opinions, each holding on to one word, and there is no plan!" ”

"What do you think?"

Shi Kefa smiled bitterly and said, "Cough! If you take the outline of the common theory, the blessing of the clan is naturally the best, it is the emperor of the gods, the first emperor brothers, not to mention that it is close at hand, it can be reached immediately, but its absurdity and greed, the five poisons are complete, it is not the posture of the emperor, if it is forced to be the emperor, I am afraid that it will be a disaster to the community! Although the Lu clan is in front of him, and he is humble and virtuous, his blood relatives are too far away, and the order should not be established. ”

Shi Kefa said this, Ma Shiying suddenly understood in his heart, on the enthronement of King Lifu is a matter of course, local officials and many ministers are interested in supporting it, in the name of "Lixian" proposed to establish the king of Lu, in fact, the officials of the Donglin faction, such as Jiang Riguang, the Zhan Shi of the Hanlin Academy, Lu Daqi, the head of the military department, Zhang Shenyan, the imperial history of the right capital, and Qian Qianyi, the former head of the Ministry of Rites.

Especially this Qian Qianyi, although he is no longer in the court, but he is the leader of Donglin, and his words are very weighty, these days he visits up and down, wooing ministers, Ma Shiying has also heard of it.

Of course, Ma Shiying also knows how big the power of the Donglin family is in the southern capital, coupled with Qian Qianyi's many friends and visits, and the relationship has also caused considerable momentum, and now the two sides are deadlocked, listening to his meaning, it seems that neither of them wants to stand, and wants to fight with a handful of mud to avoid another party fight, but how should he choose?

Seeing that Ma Shiying was silent, Shi Kefa was a little worried, afraid that he wouldn't be able to understand what he meant, so he called softly: "Yaocao!" ”

Ma Shiying hurriedly responded: "Yes." ”

Shi Kefa said in a deep voice: "I am suffering from this great disaster, and in the end, it is really a disaster of party struggle!" In this national disaster, although the students are disciples of Donglin, they dare not have the slightest view of the door.

Looking around at the Chinese and foreign people's feelings, there is no shortage of people who discuss the establishment of the Fu Domain, and those who discuss the Lu Domain are also heavy! At this point, the student said bluntly, the Fu Domain is involved in many old cases, if the Fu Domain is established, many ministers in the DPRK and China are afraid, and then the party will inevitably resurge, causing chaos in the government and the great cause of the abrupt death! If the Lu clan is established, the order is not appropriate, and it is a taboo for the dynasty to give up one's relatives and establish sparseness, and if it ascends the throne, then who cannot stand up to the descendants of the Zhu family in the world?

However, it is the Gui Domain, which is the descendant of the Divine Sect, and is benevolent and virtuous, known as a virtuous name, and the order can also be established, the students are so painstakingly lonely, only for the DPRK and China to unite as one, the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, and avenge the first emperor, if Yaocao can agree, you can immediately make a decision to enter the cabinet, then you and I will work with one heart and one mind, and the great cause of Zhongxing can be achieved! ”

Ma Shiying listened respectfully, while carefully considering the examination in his heart, the succession of the emperor is supposed to be well-deserved by King Fu, but the Donglin party members are afraid that King Fu will reopen the old case and settle the old accounts after he comes to power, so as to establish King Lu. But King Lu's blood relatives are too far away, according to the patriarchal relationship, he has no qualifications to succeed to the throne at all, Shi Kefa is afraid that King Lilu will make a bigger mess, so he wants to support himself, Ligui Wang, thinking that it is a compromise, to be honest, this is a very good and muddy method.

However, Shi Kefa has two sentences that speak to Ma Shiying's heart, one of which is that if he makes a meritorious decision, it will naturally be a matter of course to enter the cabinet.

Second, if you can enter the cabinet, it doesn't matter who is the emperor of King Fu, King Lu, and King Gui. All they want is a banner, as long as it doesn't affect their power, since Shi Kefa has such intentions, if he insists on disobeying, I'm afraid he won't end well.

Thinking of this, Ma Shiying spoke: "The neighbors are very worried, and the current situation really needs to unite the civil and military forces and work together, so that the state affairs can take a turn." With that in mind, what do we think we should do? ”

As soon as Ma Shiying expressed his position, Shi Kefa immediately felt a lot more at ease, and said busily, "Gui Fan Rende, you should know the important ministers of the court as soon as possible, and settle the dispute, he is in Guangxi, far Xinjiang, and he can't arrive in Beijing for a while, so he should prepare a fast horse to pass the word, and then take the public opinion to meet him!" ”

Ma Shiying nodded when he heard this: "This is very appropriate." ”

After the discussion, the two immediately prepared for the establishment of various matters.

The result of the secret discussion between Shi and Ma was beyond everyone's expectations -- the final winner was neither King Fu who was "close but not virtuous", nor King Lu who was "virtuous but not friendly", but Zhu Changying, King Gui, who was "both close and virtuous". In order to take care of the emotions of the Donglin Party, Shi and Ma proposed that King Lu should serve as the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, and oversee the country's soldiers and horses.

After Shi Kefa announced the results of the "heir election", the Nanjing gentry represented by the Donglin Party were overjoyed. In their opinion, the original proposal of King Lu is just a finger, as long as you don't choose King Fu, you won't be "counterattacked", and you will choose whoever you like!

The Donglin Party members were actively planning and preparing to welcome King Gui to the throne from Guangxi. The peaceful and peaceful scene in Nanjing has created an illusion for Shi Kefa: everyone is happy, and the overall situation has been decided!

Just as Nanjing was "putting up lights" and preparing to welcome King Gui to the throne, an invitation was sent to Ma Shiying's desk.

It was sent by Lu Jiude, the eunuch of the Fengyang garrison.
