Chapter 414 Settle down
In the morning, he thanked him in Xianxi Palace, and in the evening he went to a banquet in the Chunxi Palace, until he returned to Qiupu Xuan, his mind still flashed with the expectant eyes of the Holy Empress Dowager and Emperor Jingtai. This made Zhu Qiming very entangled, but fortunately, the alcohol in the blood played a role, and he didn't have to burn his brain all night for the two situations in the palace.
"Your Highness is finally back!"
"See His Royal Highness King Yue."
"Hey, hey, hey······ His Royal Highness Jin An. ”
Zhu Qiming opened his drunken eyes and saw clearly that there were three internal officials standing in the main hall, Xing'an, Jin Ying, and Wang Jin.
Why did these three come together?
Zhu Qiming had some doubts in his heart, but he was too drunk, and no matter how many doubts he had, he would slip away in an instant. He greeted the three of them with a bow, and then moved to the inner chamber, his gait was steady.
The two maids followed him in, waited for him to take the sobering soup prepared by Lu Xiyao, and applied a moist hot towel to his face, resting for a while, feeling that the strength of the wine was slowly subsiding.
"Your Highness, Miss Lu returned to Wan Tingju before dinner. Oh. At this time, it was the beginning of the year. "The full moon enters at the right time, and the Tao says.
"Got it." Zhu Qiming felt that every breath of turbid air would make him feel better.
"Hey, hey, hey······ The emperor is afraid that he will drink too much! He rejoiced in his heart.
I vaguely remembered that there were still three internal officials staying in the main hall, so I tried my best to open my sleepy eyes and breathe heavily, until I felt that my mind was controllable, and then I left my seat and went to the main hall.
The façade was closed, and the light of the candles in the hall was quite soft. As soon as the three internal officials saw Zhu Qiming appear, they immediately got up to greet them.
Zhu Qiming waved his hand and motioned for the three of them to take their seats, and then calmly walked to the main seat and took their seats.
The four maids came over to serve tea separately and left.
Drinking tea slowly, Ren was roasted by the warm charcoal fire, sweat beads suddenly oozed from his forehead, and the whole person was refreshed, and the drunkenness had disappeared by five points.
Only then did Zhu Qiming raise his eyes and look at the three people in front of him.
Xing'an, Jin Ying, Wang Jin, such a combination is quite peculiar!
He knows that Xing'an has been very popular recently, Jin Ying is very troubled, and Wang Jin is very lonely.
Needless to say, Xing'an is a celebrity in front of the emperor, and he has a lot of power. Kim Young is in big trouble, and there is already public opinion in the DPRK, and it is said that the Sixth Branch and the Thirteenth Dao are preparing to jointly impeach him.
It is worth mentioning Wang Jin. During the Xuande period, he was a big celebrity in front of the emperor, his real name was Chen Wu, a Jiaozhi person, because he had served the Xuande Emperor in his early years and was still the emperor's grandson, so as soon as the Xuande Emperor ascended the throne, he gave him an official - the eunuch of the imperial horse, and the name was changed to Wang Jin, and the marriage was given to reward two palace maids.
Unexpectedly, on the wedding night, Wang Jin hugged the two beauties left and right, and suddenly realized that he was a waste person, because he was a eunuch who was disabled, and was unwilling to be single and strong.
Promise the heart of the country! Hehe, it's still quite affectionate.
The later orthodox emperors and Emperor Jingtai were lukewarm to Wang Jin, Wang Jin had long lost his aura of the past, and seeing that there was another group of newcomers rising among the internal officials, wouldn't he be lonely?
Wang Jin has served as a eunuch in the army many times, and he still knows some things about the army. His relationship with Yu Qian was quite bad.
Needless to say, it is the hot events of the DPRK and China that resonate with them, and they are all eager to find answers from Zhu Qiming, so that they can step on the rhythm of their lives during the political turmoil.
Who told Zhu Qiming to see the general trend of the world clearly, but not like others who are lonely and self-promising?
"Your Royal Highness, the king of the Ministry of Shangshu directly advises the emperor to make peace with Wara." Xing'an was the first to speak: "Wang Shangshu said that in ancient China, Hu Lu was the first to endure and the last to gain a lot. For example, in the Han Dynasty, Han Gaozu fell into the 'siege of Baideng', and the Han army was defeated by the Xiongnu, so there were decades of forbearance and accumulation of national strength, and finally defeated the Xiongnu when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. ”
Wang Zhi's words seem reasonable, but in fact they are absurd, a typical afterthought of judging right and wrong by success or failure after the fact! This was the first thought that popped into Zhu Qiming's mind.
Zhu Qiming wanted to talk about it left and right, pretending to be drunk and hurriedly sent the three away, and when he met Xing'an's expectant gaze, he changed his mind.
"This king remembers that when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ascended the throne, there were not many people in the court who thought that the Han Dynasty could defeat the Xiongnu, at that time the main peacemaker had the advantage, and the Han army lost the first battle, if Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty lost the first battle, he decided that the Xiongnu were really invincible, and then chose to strike the war and make peace, and continue to recuperate, presumably future generations will not have any objections to this.
As for how the strength of the Han and the Xiongnu will rise and fall after that, only God knows! ”
Zhu Qiming smiled, "However, the contrast of strength between Da Ming and Warat is still quite clear. Today, the national strength of the Ming Dynasty is far better than that at the beginning of the founding of the country, and the strength of Warat is far inferior to the original Yuan soldiers. Isn't compromising and seeking peace at this time proving that the ancestors are too wise and martial and the descendants are too incompetent?
What's more, now I, the Ming Dynasty, am only protecting the territory and the people, and I am not seeking war, unlike when Emperor Wu crossed the border to the north to capture the Kou. ”
"That's it!" Xing'an twisted his neck, looking very angry.
"It's good that His Highness is present during the court meeting! The emperor said that the current situation is not that Daming is unwilling to make peace, but that Wara has come to the door, and Daming has to defend himself.
The imperial court has sent peace envoys five times, but they were also detained first, so in front of the Ming Dynasty, there are only two ways to go: war and surrender. ”
Xing'an's tone was extremely heavy, and it could be seen that he had suffered a loss in the debate with Wang Zhi again.
Over there, Jin Ying straightened up, squinted at Xing'an, opened his mouth for a moment, and finally opened his mouth.
"It's also good to give more benefits to the Warat people, so that the emperor can return to China as soon as possible."
Jin Ying obviously had his own little calculations, and the strange thing was that Xing'an did not show disgust, and he still had a lot of respect for Jin Ying, a senior eunuch, between his words.
"Brother Jin didn't know that the Warat people had not let go so far, and still threatened to send a large army to escort the emperor into Beijing to take the throne. If left unchecked, won't Beijing's war be fought in vain? ”
Kim Young-weiwei.
Wang Jin on the side said cautiously: "Dare to ask Your Highness, can Da Ming and Warat still make peace?" ”
Zhu Qiming thought for a while, "The area around the capital has returned to peace, and now the war is limited to the border line, the Ming army has more victories and fewer defeats, and in a few months, the Warat people will not be able to hold on."
When the Warats come to their door to sue for peace, there will be a genuine, lasting peace in the north. ”
Wang Jin turned his eyes to Xing'an, grinned, and looked flattering, "Dugong, do you say that you can go to the north to supervise the army?" ”
Still thinking about the good things that you want in the midst of wealth and danger? Xing'an shrugged his eyebrows and ignored Wang Jin at all.
Seeing that the three internal officials had their own thoughts, Zhu Qiming suddenly realized that at this time when the situation was turbulent, it was time to carefully play his private calculations.
"Your Highness, you said that the situation is clearly there, why does Wang Shangshu still advise the emperor?" Xing'an was still interested and still asking.
Can the mystery be interpreted at will? You don't think for yourself! Zhu Qiming stretched, then leaned back in the chair and slowly closed his eyes.
"It seems that His Highness is getting drunk, alas, regret!"
"I'm bothered, I'm sorry."
After the three of them left, Zhu Qiming's mind was full of the word "return".
