Chapter 493: The emperor takes turns to do it, and he will come to my house next year
Interests determine the position, and strength determines the victory or defeat. Most of those who can stand above the court have two brushes, and it is a very illusory thing to convince people and make the opponent give up their position based on words alone.
The court debate will evolve from a debate that cites scriptures to a scolding war, which is also expected by Li Dongyang, the latter mode is more direct, no need to use your brain, and the move is relatively fast, saving trouble and effort.
Scolding people can only be cheap, and they may not be able to get angry, but they may make themselves angry, and smart people will certainly not be happy with it. If it is according to the previous practice, after the two sides tear their faces, they should enter a new stage of competing for strength, which is the normal routine of the Korean struggle.
However, where does the Scholar Party have the strength it can muster now? has become a representative of the gentry, and the strength of the gentry party is of course very strong, which is a force that has penetrated into every corner of the Ming Dynasty and is enough to shake the world.
But this power is incognito, and it is too scattered, how easy is it to concentrate and burst out?
Therefore, for the time being, the party can only rely on scolding to vent, and the momentum cannot overwhelm the opponent, so it is better to compete in endurance.
On the side of the imperial party, most people have been suppressed for a long time, and now they suddenly turn over and raise their eyebrows, and they also need to vent.
As a result, the court debate naturally evolved into today's model, and the boiling in the Zhonghe Hall is more popular than the vegetable market.
Across the red carpet in the middle, the old and young on both sides are blushing and thick-necked, and some people have even begun to search around, ready to find some guys to take advantage of, but unfortunately, the Jinluan Hall is still relatively tidy, and weapons such as bricks and bricks are really not found.
The leaders on both sides did not join the fight.
Needless to say, Li Dongyang and Yang Tinghe are both known for their resourcefulness, of course they will not do this kind of useless work, it is useless to scold and win, political disputes are like this, if the court is evenly matched, then the emperor will become the factor that determines the surname, even in the Chenghua or Hongzhi Dynasty where the imperial power is suppressed.
And now Zhengde is no longer Wuxia Ameng, even if there is no foil from the imperial party, he can fight against the foreign courts, and now with the imperial party waving the flag and shouting, it is even more out of control.
Therefore, don't look at the Shi Party, which is not falling behind for the time being, and even after the start of the scolding war, it has gradually gained some advantages, after all, there are many people on their side, and they are loud when they shout.
But in fact, they are the lagging side, and the initiative is completely in the hands of the young man watching the excitement on the dragon chair. Don't look at him scratching his ears and cheeks, he seems to be heartless, but as long as he joins the war group after he has had enough, the situation will be reversed immediately, and the situation will be completely overturned.
What to do?
Li Dongyang saw sweat on his head, Yang Tinghe twitched the corners of his eyes, and Wang Wei was even a little dizzy, firstly, the noise was too loud, and the old man was a little confused, and secondly, he was also worried about the consequences of opening the sea.
But no matter how they search their intestines and scrape their stomachs, they can't think of a way, they can use it, the conventional methods have already been used, and even some tricks of rubbing the edges and going too far have been gritted their teeth and used it, and now what is the way against the sky?
If it weren't for the emperor's complete dominance, even if the interests were a little lost, those poor scholars would not have gone crazy to such a point?
The sneer on the corner of Jiao Fang's mouth and Tang Bohu's calmness all showed the determination in the heart of the imperial party.
In this regard, Li Dongyang just smiled miserably, the matter is clear, the emperor now controls the capital plus the military power of the two border towns, and the third town is also about to start, from then on the surrounding area of Gyeonggi will be completely stabilized, and there will be no hidden dangers.
The restrictions imposed on the emperor's financial power, though slow but effective, have been broken and are about to be broken completely. If the sea is really opened, and the emperor directly profits from the sea trade, then what is there to talk about restricting financial power?
Then there is the sad and unlimited restriction of luck, Li Dongyang is not unaware, this move will hurt both sides, but it stands to reason that for Xie Hong, who has no foundation, the damage of this move should be greater. Therefore, he acquiesced to Jiangnan Shiren's actions at the beginning, and later even turned to support.
But who would have thought that under Xie Hong's three punches and two feet, he really opened a new world in Liaodong and turned waste into treasure.
As a result, the seven wounds that hurt others and hurt themselves were rebounded, and the damage was all borne by the scholars themselves, which directly led to the rebellion in the nest of the poor scholars, how could Li Dongyang not be sad?
I can't regret it!
"Ahem, cough ......" hesitated, Zhengde suddenly cleared his throat, obviously seeing enough of the excitement and preparing to go out in person to win the game. His voice was soft, but it caused a great reaction in the Golden Luan Palace.
Victory is in sight, and the imperial party is naturally smiling and proud; And for the soldiers, this sound is like a talisman, just the opponent in front of him is already anxious, plus a heavyweight enemy comes in, it is inevitable to collapse for a thousand miles!
The court fell silent all of a sudden.
Although the power is not high, this feeling that every move can affect the hearts of thousands of people makes Zhengde slightly intoxicated, especially when he thinks of the situation two years ago, Zhu Houzhao is even more embarrassed.
The emperor takes turns to come to my house next year, and the ancients are honest and don't deceive me! Uh, no, no, I seem to be the emperor in the first place, but...... Think about it two years ago, and then recall that when his father was alive, Zhengde pouted, that can also be called the emperor, in addition to wearing dragon robes, sitting on dragon chairs, and living in the Forbidden City, what else has anything to do with the emperor?
In fact, he also regretted it, he knew that when his father was here, I should have gone to Xuanfu to find my eldest brother, and then my father would not die, and he could really be an emperor.
As for whether the generous Hongzhi will like Xie Hong, whether Xie Hong has the ability to do it now at that time, it is completely out of Zhu Houzhao's consideration, anyway...... Big brother is omnipotent and omnipresent.
"Everyone Aiqing has also been discussing for a long time, well, there don't seem to be any new words, so, that's it, it's over, I've made up my mind......" When he spoke, Zhengde looked dissatisfied with the desire on his face, obviously very dissatisfied with the courtiers not scolding new tricks, but no one cared about this detail at this time, everyone was waiting for the final verdict with bated breath.
There is no suspense, the result is doomed, the Shi Party is like ashes, and most of the Imperial Party are jubilant.
The court is to fight for everything, with the help of the power of the imperial power, it is also one of the means, and it is also a big killer, although everyone is a poor family now, but if it completely overwhelms the Shi Party, a few decades later, the current Imperial Party will replace the position of the Shi Party and become the new master of the Ming Dynasty.
As for the process in between, who cares?
As long as the imperial power has the upper hand, everyone can use the power of the imperial power to eliminate dissidents, and then wait for the opportunity. While slowly eroding the victorious achievements of the imperial power, he also waited for the two monarchs and ministers to grow old, or negligently reveal their flaws, and then it was the time when the Xinshi Party was in power.
I don't know how many such cases have happened since ancient times, and of course the scholars of the poor families who are familiar with the scriptures and history will not be unaware that when the day comes to power, history will also be rewritten by the victors, and the experience of defecting to the imperial party will also be described as a burden of forbearance and humiliation for the sake of righteousness.
The future is bright, isn't it?
"Your Majesty, the minister Li Dongyang has a play!" Li Dongyang suddenly stood up and directly interrupted Zhengde's words.
Everyone was shocked.
Interrupting the emperor's words, this is already a big loss of honor in front of the monarch, if the righteousness is more serious, maybe the cabinet will suffer heavy losses again. Everyone looked at Li Dongyang in disbelief, but saw that the look on his face was extremely determined, obviously, this old man who was known for his resourcefulness had made up his mind to fight to the death.
"Oh? Scholar Lee has something to say? Let's hear about it. ”
Zhengde's reaction made everyone in the Shi Party breathe a sigh of relief, but the solemn atmosphere that permeated them still did not dissipate, although the emperor did not have any city government, but he was just as happy and angry, and his expression was very rich, but no one could guess his thoughts from his expression.
"The ancestral system is difficult to violate, the old minister bears the grace of the former emperor, I really dare not disobey, if Your Majesty insists on this, the old minister will not be able to continue to serve in the court, otherwise what face will he have to see the emperor? Please allow Your Majesty to ......" Li Dongyang's voice was low, but his words were earth-shattering.
Beggar bones, beg for help!
This trick is actually not unexpected, whether it is the Hongzhi Dynasty or the Chenghua Dynasty, it is very common, if there are not a few ministers in a month, Huang Yanjing will wonder if there is any undercurrent or conspiracy in the court, and Tai Ban is a gesture.
Even after Zhengde ascended the throne, when Hongzhi was in the eighteenth year, there were often people who used this ultimate trick, and it was always Xiao Zhu's classmates who kept him repeatedly, and the old man replied shamefully: Since the emperor is so sincere, the old man has no choice but to make it difficult.
However, since last year, this trick has not been easy to use, the reason is well known, the emperor is really here, if you dare to ask for a master, he will dare to dismiss your official, and it is not easy to use any identity!
Therefore, Li Dongyang's trick only made the imperial party more excited and the party more depressed. The people of the imperial party are all thinking about who will make up for it if Li Dongyang goes, and what kind of changes will it cause.
"Minister Yang Tinghe, please ...... together" Another person knelt down after going out of class, and everyone was stunned to find that someone had followed up.
"The ...... of the Minister"
"Chen Hongzhong ......"
said that it was too late and that was fast, the Jiangnan scholars led by Wang Wei also followed up one after another, these people were the main force of the Shi Party, and for a while, the Danqi was full of people kneeling, and the number was still increasing.
Wang Wei hadn't figured out what Li Dongyang was going to do, but he knew that if Li Dongyang and Yang Tinghe went to work, it would be difficult for Jiangnan scholars to be alone, and it would be better to fight to the death than to wait for death slowly.
Therefore, he sent a hint to the Jiangnan scholars present and asked them to follow up together, trying to force Zhengde to comply with the huge number of people and the possible impact.
However, whether this trick has any effect, how great the effect is, he has little confidence, with the existence of the imperial party, even if all the scholars are expelled, it will not delay the operation of the imperial court.
What's more, with Zhengde's surname, will he think so much? And there is also that Xie Hong, who is an even more unscrupulous master.
Alas, the future is bleak!
