Chapter 186: Tongue Battle Wenhua Hall (II)

There is a reason for that!

Faced with such a sentence, everyone was stunned. Zhu Houzhao almost didn't bare out of his eyes, and he was almost about to shout when he opened his mouth, but Liu Jin on the side was quick and grabbed his sleeve, which made the impulsive little prince hold back. And the six bigwigs over there were also unexpected, but after all, they were deep in the city, and took this opportunity to take advantage of this opportunity, Liu Daxiasuo, who was the secretary of the military department, took a step forward and arched his hand upward: "Your Majesty, since this is the case, please take back your fate!" ”

Emperor Hongzhi on the throne ignored Liu Daxia's statement, but stared at Xu Xun for a long time. Seeing that Xu Xun, who straightened up, his face was full of calmness, and the trace of anger he had just given birth suddenly disappeared, replaced by an inexplicable curiosity. At that moment, he waved his hand, and then Wen Yan asked, "Xu Xun, go on." ”

"Yes." Seeing that Emperor Hongzhi was not angry because of this, Xu Xun suddenly calmed down, and did not look at Zhu Houzhao, who was full of anxiety, and said unhurriedly, "Among the Jingwei, there are six out of twenty Shangzhiwei, and they take turns to defend the imperial city, each has money and food, each has a chief official, and the avant-garde of the government army is among them." Weichen is young and shallow, if he selects people from the young and young soldiers of the government army, even if they are young, many of them have attacked the regular army since they were young, and they will inevitably be unable to suppress it. Moreover, they usually have their own methods of practice, in case they feel that Weichen's method is not legal, maybe they will have trouble. Even if only 500 people are stationed in Xiyuan, it is easy to get into trouble. Therefore, the minister asked the emperor to allow the ministers to select the remaining 500 young soldiers, and pay them for three months, and if they do not form an army after three months, they will be sent home, and they will still be surplus soldiers. If they can form an army after March, they will be the prince's subordinates! ”

Everyone has heard the reasons in the first place, but after hearing them, the six ministers can't help but be shocked, and even the emperor is full of surprise. As for Zhu Houzhao, who had just fallen to the bottom, his eyebrows immediately danced, his fists clenched and he waved twice excitedly, and at the same time, a word burst out of his mouth.

"Good!"

"Thick photos!"

Emperor Hongzhi glanced at his son unhappily, and when he saw that Zhu Houzhao quickly restored his serious appearance, he couldn't help but sigh, but he immediately regained the majesty of the emperor who was sitting upright: "Xu Xun, do you know what you are talking about?" ”

"The minister knows." Xu Xun bowed deeply, and then said without raising his head, "The emperor trusts the promotion of the commander, and he knows that the minister's age and qualifications are not enough to command a guard, so he doesn't dare to ask for five hundred regular troops. Therefore, the minister asked to try out the more than 500 troops, if it is successful, it will be the fortune of the prince; If not, please ask the emperor to blame the ministers for the crime of incompetence. ”

"Your Majesty, don't do it!"

Liu Daxia has completely forgotten what he said to Li Dongyang, since Ma Wensheng has written about Xu Xun's matter, he just treats it as nothing. At this time, he was still faster than anyone else, blurted out a word of opposition, and then said categorically: "The Imperial Garden is important, and there has never been a reason to train soldiers!" ”

"Why did Liu Shangshu say this? The first emperor took office as the avant-garde commander of our army, and when he trained 500 soldiers, he had already said that he was training troops in the Xiyuan schoolyard, and Liu Shangshu didn't seem to object at that time, right? ”

That's because the old man didn't see through your kid's cunning heart, otherwise as soon as the will arrived at the military department, the old man would have rejected it a long time ago!

Liu Daxia was slandered in his heart, but he couldn't say that, so he snorted coldly at the moment: "The old man just didn't think about it before!" Besides, soldiers are murder weapons, and what kind of system is tossing these in the Imperial Garden, even Fanbang foreign countries, and they will laugh at me for having no rules! The crown prince is the second prince of the country, and if he indulges in these military trails, he will inevitably repeat the ......"

Xu Xun knew very well that if he really wanted to debate with these bigwigs who looked like people for years, it would be just asking for his own suffering, so he waited for Liu Daxia to turn the topic to Zhu Houzhao. At this time, when Liu Daxia suddenly hesitated when he said this, he knew that Liu Daxia would never say something like the same as repeating the mistakes of Yingzong, so he suddenly said: "What Liu Shangshu said is not bad, compared to the sage Confucianism, the military is indeed just a small way. But it was me who trained the troops, not His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince occasionally comes to observe, it must be known that the Prince is the prince of the country, not only the prince of scholars, but also the prince of military households, and the prince of all the people in the world. Only by knowing the danger of military affairs can we know that we must be cautious in the use of soldiers in the future, so that the blessing of all the people in the world is this! ”

After decades of official life, Liu Daxia has seen all kinds of people, and those so-called genius prodigies who talk passionately and eloquently at a young age are not uncommon. But he really didn't expect that he had heard that the prince of Xing'an had not read many books, but in terms of reasoning, he did not lose at all. And the other party stubbornly picked out these truths, and he didn't want to give too many examples, so he could only sink his face and say: "Even if it is more than 500 troops, the cost of food and salary for three months is still not a small amount." Not only do you move the people, but every penny is the people's fat and people's ointment, if you don't succeed at that time, you will only lose face, and the silver of the household treasury will not be in vain? ”

"What's there to stir up the crowd!" Zhu Houzhao has been there to endure and endure, and finally couldn't help it at this moment, and suddenly rushed out from Emperor Hongzhi's side, and the surname Suo knelt down at his father's feet, "Father, isn't it just three months' salary!" Anyway, these people will be subordinate to their sons in the future, and what kind of food and salary expenses will be taken out by the sons surnamed Suo! ”

Liu Daxia was almost so angry by Zhu Houzhao's two words, and immediately glared at Ma Wensheng viciously. Seeing that Ma Wensheng didn't react at all, he remembered that the person had his back to him, and he didn't have eyes behind him, so he could only raise his voice for a while and said: "Moreover, the emperor Mingjian, now the Taoist officials of all branches are impeaching Xu Xun for instigating the prince, even if the minister is impeached, he should beg to go, not to mention that he is a small minister......

Before Emperor Hongzhi could speak, Zhu Houzhao suddenly puffed up his chest again and said loudly: "Father, the retainers know that you are hesitant because someone has been reading books these days and said that Xu Xun instigated the retainers to skip class!" What do they know, Erchen is the prince, the future Son of Heaven, and he has his own ideas for doing things, if it is really what others instigate, they will listen to it, and what will become of Erchen! If they still say that, let them come to their sons, and let them also come and instigate them to give it a try! Besides, Erchen was obviously sick that day, so he came back early from Wenhua Palace, father, didn't you? ”

This is a fool's errand!

For a while, none of the six bigwigs in the room had a good-looking face, especially Ma Wensheng, who had also written and suggested Xu Xun's affairs, was the most. At this time, Li Dongyang, who had been quietly watching, knew that he couldn't be so silent anymore, so he immediately said: "There are some false rumors outside. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that he was sick, and I don't know why there was a royal history saying that the prince had escaped from the Wenhua Hall to give lectures, which caused an uproar. ”

Gently and skillfully excused Zhu Houzhao, seeing that the little prince immediately became happy, Li Dongyang changed his words and said: "It is not unreasonable to worry about the courtiers in the court, after all, the speakers of the East Palace are looking forward to the prince's arrival in Wenyuan Pavilion every day, and if there is not, there will be many speculations, which is also reasonable." According to the minister's opinion, since the emperor has entered the avant-garde command of Xu Xunfu's army, and he has trained 500 soldiers, now that he is willing to issue this military order, he has little to bear, so he might as well give it a try. ”

Liu Jian had already complained to Li Dongyang in his heart about coming out and lying in the mud, but when it came to the last sentence, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, what Elder Li Ge said is that if Xu Xun is willing to make a military order, this matter can be done." There are rewards and punishments, so the officials in the court have nothing to say. ”

Ma Wensheng couldn't help but be old when he was old, so he heard less than fifty percent of the words just now, it should have been him, who had been mixed with the book as the main force, but he didn't want to be preempted by Liu Daxia. Only this time Liu Jian deliberately raised his voice, and he heard it clearly, and after thinking quietly for a moment, he opened his mouth and said, "The minister seconded the proposal." ”

"The minister also seconded the proposal." Xie Qian saw that Liu Jian said this, and then thought that the prince had even come to play tricks just now, so he also joined in.

Dai Shan saw that only she and Liu Daxia were left, and after a little thought, she said happily: "The minister also seconded the proposal." ”

Seeing that he had left himself a bare-bones commander, Liu Daxia was even more angry for a while. After a long time, he said angrily: "If Xu Xun dares to make a military order, the minister will let him toss!" If he can't form an army after three months, if anyone dares to shield him at that time, the old man will never back down half a step! ”

Since Zhu Houzhao suddenly joined in, Xu Xun closed his mouth very knowingly, seeing Li Dongyang's gentle and clever words, although the original-for-tat situation was greatly eased, but there was a military order, he couldn't help but smile slightly, calmly stepped forward and bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, thanks to the young and young Zanchen of Li Ge, the minister is willing to make a military order and try hard!" ”

Li Dongyang had never seen such a person beating snakes with sticks, knowing that he had little treatment to fool people in response to the situation, and he could only admit it with a smile when he heard the words. At this time, Emperor Hongzhi finally took a long breath, and immediately smiled and said: "In this case, then this matter will be according to what Xu Xun said, and Mr. Li proposed it." Come on, wait for pen and paper! ”

Zhu Houzhao, who had already gotten up, was still a little ignorant of what the military order meant, but he only knew that since these people forced Xu Xun to write this thing, they must always have bad intentions, and their little brows were naturally completely twisted together. When he watched Xiao Jing, the eunuch of the master of ceremonies, go down and guide Xu Xun to write a lot of words on the paper, he finally couldn't help it, took a step back and dragged Liu Jin and asked viciously: "You say, why did they ask Xu Xun to write any military orders?" ”

"Your Highness, don't worry, it's okay, didn't Xu Shizi agree to it?" Having said that, thinking about Liu Daxia's aggressive appearance just now, Liu Jin was a little stunned in his heart. These court officials will be better to deal with them in person less in the future!

At this moment, Xiao Jing had already taken a piece of ink-drenched paper and presented it to the emperor. Emperor Hongzhi took a look, and motioned for Xiao Jing to take it to the six ministers, and finally Liu Daxia rolled up the things solemnly and put them away. At this time, Emperor Hongzhi spoke: "Wenyuan Pavilion is busy with government affairs, and the Ministry of Officials is also preparing for next year's inspection, and the Ministry of War also has to deal with the affairs of the Tartars. ”

Since the emperor said so, the six bigwigs bowed again and then withdrew, but everyone had to glance at Xu Xun's face more when they left, almost glaring at Liu Daxia. When they all came out of the main hall, Emperor Hongzhi said with a straight face: "Xu Xun, there is no joke in front of the king. Whether it's something or a good person, you can choose, then Wang Shouren, the director of the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War, I can also be the main transfer. In the next three months, you will do your best, and after the work is done, I will not spare the reward! ”
