Although Jingying has often engaged in such military exercises in the past, there has never been a time when it has been as concerned by countless court officials as this military exercise, of course, not only because of the emperor's exception, but also because the emperor actually took a brocade guard team under his command for the first time.

In fact, just Wanli secretly went to the Jingying campus to watch the military drill was enough to provoke the criticism of the courtiers. You must know that since the Tumubao, the Ming Dynasty has been pursuing the national policy of being civil and noble, military and cheap, and civil officials have constantly suppressed the military generals through the power in their hands, making it difficult for them to have too much intersection with the emperor to threaten their own status. And now, the little emperor actually went to Jingying, which will naturally make the civil officials of the Manchu Dynasty feel a great threat.

What made it even more difficult for the courtiers to accept was that Wanli actually agreed to take a brocade guard under his command, and he himself became the commander of this team. If this kind of thing seems to future generations, it is simply a child's trick and joke, after all, Jinyiwei belongs directly to the emperor, and it is the same whether he hangs on the commander's order or not.

But for the Ming courtiers in front of him, this is an extremely dangerous signal, and the little emperor is in danger of going the wrong way and becoming the next Zhengde Emperor. You must know that the original Zhengde Zhu Houzhao liked to keep adding military ranks to himself, until he was the generalissimo of the world. Although he changed himself to the pseudonym of Zhu Shou on this, he could not change the fact that the emperor was heavy on martial arts, and therefore raised lackeys such as Qian Ning and Jiang Bin, endangering many upright courtiers.

Although the current Wanli is only showing a little sign, the courtiers can no longer bear it, in order to prevent the emperor from becoming a reckless soldier and reckless of human life, and eventually lead to the entire Ming Dynasty Troubled Faint Monarch, they should lead the court and the loyal ministers should do their best to admonish and ask the emperor to change his ways.

So in just a few days, one by one to persuade the emperor, the impeachment of the Jingying side and the Zhenyuan Marquis Gu Huan's recital flew into the General Administration Department like snowflakes, and then stacked high in front of the cabinet and the little emperor. Among them, there are a large number of bullet seals aimed at Yang Zhen and Jinyiwei, saying that they have bad intentions, are determined to invite favors, and are traitors, and there are many people who implore the emperor to kill Yang Zhen for the sake of Zhengguo.

Of course, it is impossible to find out whether this kind of courtier who shouted at Yang Zhen was instructed by a eunuch who was more like a eunuch than a civil official. At the same time, neither the impeachment nor other officials thought that the emperor would adopt such a request and really attack Yang Zhen.

But in this way, it is true that Yang Zhen's reputation in the capital has become greater, after all, only when you have a certain degree of fame, will you be openly impeached by so many people. Otherwise, an obscure petty official, even if you do something vicious, I'm afraid that those old men will not waste pen and ink on you. Although there are rules for correcting mistakes in the imperial history, most of them still hope to create opportunities for their promotion through impeachment, and only by impeaching those who are famous can they become famous.

At the beginning, Hai Rui, Hu Yingjia and others were famous all over the world for this. Although these officials don't have the courage to scold the emperor and scold the head of the dynasty to win the greatest reputation, it is not a bad thing to scold Jinyiwei and Yang Zhen, a newcomer who does not have much foundation.

When the transcripts of these bullet seals were sent to Yang Zhen, he also felt a little inexplicable: "I stabbed some kind of hornet's nest, and I was impeached by dozens of people in one day." Even when Feng Bao wanted to deal with me and used his subordinates to impeach me, there was no such a big battle! As he spoke, he threw a copy of the transcript in his hand that he had written for the lucky villain into the pile of papers.

Yang Chen, who was on the other side, also showed a wry smile, and said enviously: "This is the chain effect caused by your fame." The higher you stand, the easier it is to be targeted by those below, especially when you show a flaw, they will take the opportunity to attack you and try to get the most advantage by knocking you down. After a pause, he comforted again: "But Erlang, you don't have to panic, these bullets don't have much substance, the slogan is greater than the evidence, and it is impossible to have much impact on you." ”

"Of course, I didn't do anything hurtful, so they just belittled me with something like luck. Not only does it have no effect on me, but it doesn't necessarily have much lethality on Jinyiwei. Yang Zhen naturally didn't feel flustered because of this, and smiled indifferently.

This is, of course, because he has great confidence in himself and the situation at hand. After a lawsuit knocked Liu Shouyou, the boss, away, Yang Zhen's position in Jinyiwei was unshakable. And this time, with him and the five hundred brothers showing their faces in front of the emperor, and even letting the emperor take them under his command for the first time, Yang Zhen's reputation among the Jinyi guards has reached its peak.

Now, no matter which brocade guards the brothers are, they are all convinced by Yang Zhenxin, and they believe that following him will have a great future in the future. And just looking at his tough attitude towards Dongchang, it can make people believe that the rise of Jinyiwei is only a matter of time, which makes Yang Zhen, the suppressor, completely grasp the control of the entire Jinyiwei in a short period of time, even if Feng Bao tries his best now to send a new commander here to suppress or restrain Yang Zhen, I am afraid it will be difficult to shake his position.

Because of this, even if Yang Zhen is facing a situation that he has never been in before, he has no worry or fear, except for feeling surprised, only ridiculous: "They think they can hit me with these things? It seems that these officials are still too self-righteous. ”

"Erlang, although they can't hurt your fur for the time being, I still have to remind you that sometimes the lethality of these bullets is still extremely great." Seeing Yang Zhen speak like this, Yang Chen couldn't help but warn and reminded: "The so-called public mouth has accumulated gold and ruined bones, and if there is too much slander, it will not really leave the world with the impression of a traitor." And now that you are in the midst of your victory, you are not afraid of their words. But once something goes wrong in the future, these bullets are likely to become hidden dangers in the future, and you must not take it lightly. ”

Yang Zhen was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded solemnly and said: "Big brother, what you said is that I am indeed a little carried away, and there should still be vigilance." ”

"If you think so, I'm relieved." Yang Chen saw that he accepted his admonition, and smiled happily. It's just that there is a hint of uneasiness and bitterness in his smile, and he doesn't seem to be happy.

When Yang Zhen saw it, he suddenly remembered that his brother's current situation was really not good, and compared with what he had said in Jinyiwei, who was a younger brother, the psychological gap between him, a petty official in the Ministry of Industry who was excluded by others, was naturally extremely huge.

In the past few days, Yang Zhen was busy training his brothers, and he had to handle the Xiangshan case, and then he started a war with Dongchang, so he naturally ignored his brother's situation when he was so busy. Now that the overall situation has been decided, Yang Zhen thought about it carefully, and felt a little apologetic: "Big brother, are you still not appreciated in the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry?" ”

Yang Chen smiled bitterly: "Judging from the current situation, unless there are any major changes in the Ministry of Industry, it is difficult for me to have a chance to change my situation." Who told me to have a dispute with my immediate boss shortly after I arrived, and that's why I ended up in this situation where no one cares. ”

Yang Zhen didn't expect his brother to be in such a situation for this reason, and he was unconsciously curious, how could he, who had always been easy-going, have an argument with his boss? But when the words came to his lips, he dispelled the idea of asking, after all, time has passed, and it will not help to ask the reason again, can it still make up for it?

So after groaning, Yang Zhen couldn't help but propose: "Big brother, since you have a hard chance to get ahead in the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry, why don't you come to Jinyiwei to help me?" Now there is a shortage of civilian officials like the experience officer in the Jinyi Guard, as long as you agree, I can think of transferring you to work in the Jinyi Guard, which is better than looking at people's faces in the Ministry of Industry but having nothing to do, right? ”

"This ......" To be honest, Yang Chen was still a little moved when he heard his brother's suggestion. In the past nearly a year, he has been very unpopular in the yamen of the Ministry of Industry, and it is even more difficult to stretch his ambitions. But after thinking about it carefully, he still shook his head categorically: "My brother can accept your intentions, but I can't agree to leave the Ministry of Industry Yamen." ”

"Why is that?" Yang Zhen said a little strangely: "Could it be that big brother, you also think the same as everyone else, do you think it is very undignified to do things in Jinyiwei?" ”

Indeed, according to the values of today's scholars, studying hard to become an official is the best way out, but being an official of a yamen like Jin Yiwei is a humiliating thing and will be despised by many scholars. Although Yang Zhen is not a scholar, he still understands this stereotype.

However, Yang Chen shook his head lightly: "No, although I am also from the imperial examination, you should know that you and I have different concepts from the current people, so how can you care about these statements?" ”

"In that case, then why do you have to insist on staying in the Ministry of Industry and not coming to my brocade guard?" Yang Zhen was even more curious.

Yang Chen was silent for a while, and then said in a low voice: "Because I believe that I still have a chance to change the situation." Because I think what I did before was right and they were wrong. I don't want to leave the ministry with that misunderstanding, I want them to know that I was the right one a year ago! ”

Looking at his brother's shining eyes, listening to him tell his thoughts categorically, although he didn't understand too much what he was trying to say, Yang Zhen still decided to support his brother's decision: "Since you have made up your mind, brother, you will no longer force you." But as long as you change your mind, you can come to my Jinyiwei at any time. ”

"I see, thank you, Jiro!"
