602 to destroy a country! How?

Then he helped Liu Liangchen up with his own hands, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Liangchen, we haven't seen each other for a year!" I miss you! ”

"Your Excellency!"

Liu Liangchen thought that he had recently done a few errands that were unfavorable, and he was afraid that he would be far away and unfamiliar, so he came with a stomach full of worries, but at this time, he listened to Lian Zining's intimate words, and only felt a warm ironing in his heart, and called an adult, his eyes were red, and his tears came down, poking there and crying.

Lian Zining understood his thoughts a little bit, patted him on the shoulder, and said angrily: "Manly man, why are you crying?" ”

Liu Liangchen said intermittently: "Under the standard, under the standard, there is a negative expectation of adults, and the errand is not done, please punish the adults!" ”

"Punish the fart! It's going to rain, and the mother is going to get married, who would have thought about it? Lian Zining laughed, stretched out his hand to support him and walked inside: "You have done a good enough, you have changed the official, I'm afraid it's like this, okay, no need to say more, let's go in and talk." ”

Liu Liangchen was moved in his heart, but he also knew Lian Zining's temperament, so he no longer said anything like punishment, and his heart was also calm, knowing that the adult did not mean to punish him.

He and Wang Posan took Lian Zining to the inner courtyard, and Wang Ba was responsible for settling down those entourage.

The manor was huge, but it seemed empty, and I didn't see many people along the way.

Seeing that Lian Zining was puzzled, Liu Liangchen said: "After receiving the news from the adults, they are all ecstatic, but do you remember Jiang Weijin?" ”

"Jiang Weijin? That kid! Didn't you take them captive? Lian Zining's face was slightly gloomy.

"That's right." Liu Liangchen nodded, and a treacherous and mysterious color appeared on his face: "After we kidnapped Jiang Weijin, Jiang Bin was like crazy, I don't know how many Jinyiwei's secret agents were sent to the periphery of the capital, and they almost lifted up all the ground." After receiving a letter from us, Fang Cai stopped, but it was still loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and now not only are there people around the capital, but also our Jingnan camp, and they have also sent people to keep an eye on them, but they don't dare to go too far. If the adults went to the camp in Jingnan, it would be too ostentatious, but this boundary is dozens of miles away from Beijing City, and their people can't find it at all. The mark was still just in case, so he only brought more than ten henchmen over, and he never told them about the identity of adults. ”

"Well, I see that you have chosen a good place." Lian Zining stretched out his finger and pointed: "There is still a river." ”

"The river leads to the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, or a tributary of the Chaohe River, and if it goes down the river, it can go directly to the sea. In the water cellar behind Zhuangzi, there are three boats, all of which are fast boats, and our brothers have all practiced oars. Wang Po said three times.

Lian Zining glanced at him with a smile: "I also know everything about you, I have done a good job during this time, and I didn't send you here in vain." ”

"Aren't they all adults, you know the pearl of wisdom?" Wang Posan said with a greedy face.

"You're a bullshit pearl, black charcoal is pretty much the same!" Lian Zining was slightly stunned and scolded with a smile.

The three of them entered the inner courtyard, walked all the way back, and went to a small courtyard, and Lian Zining saw that it was not far from the back wall. The yard is not big, and there is a big locust tree planted in it, which has died, and the locust is a ghost of wood, giving people a gloomy feeling. Liu Liangchen walked under the big locust tree, stomped hard, and it turned out to be a sound of gold and iron, he smiled: "There is an iron plate below, open it is a secret passage, and at the end is a water cellar, there is a boat in it, and it goes directly into the river." ”…,

Lian Zining nodded.

Entering the hall, only to find that there is a different world, although the outside is very simple and dilapidated, but the inside is luxuriously tight, the walls are all mixed with spices of white mud plaster, with a faint fragrance, a dry of furniture and other things, are made of rosewood, rosewood, very good.

The three of them sat down, and their own maids came up to serve tea, all of them were fourteen or fifteen-year-old girls, and after taking a sip of tea, a maid came over and said that the hot water was boiled.

"They are all girls who bought from Renyazi half a year ago, and they have been staying here, and they have no relatives at home, so in this life, they can only stay here, and they can't get out of this yard for a single step." Liu Liangchen said with a smile: "My lord has been tired all the way, do you want to bathe and change clothes first?" ”

Lian Zining glanced at him deeply: "You are now more and more thoughtful. ”

Liu Liangchen hurriedly said that he didn't dare.

After taking a bath and coming out lightly, Liu Liangchen and Wang Posan had already drunk tea and gone to the land of grain reincarnation twice.

Seeing Lian Zining coming out, he quickly stood up and said, "Adults, do you want to rest for the night first?" ”

Lian Zining waved his hand: "No, let's talk about something first." ”

After sitting down, Lian Zining leaned back in the chair, his eyes were a little distracted, and he asked for a long time: "You all understand the purpose of this official's coming this time, right?" ”

Liu Liangchen and Wang Posan naturally know a little, to be honest, they are actually quite dismissive of their own adults for a woman like this, but as subordinates, there are some things that they can never say, and they dare not say it.

Neither of them said they knew.

Lian Zining naturally understood their thoughts, but he didn't reveal them, but just said lightly: "This official is here for Kou Baimen." ”

Before the two could speak, Lian Zining asked, "These days, what is the movement in the Luwang Mansion?" ”

"The mark has been staring at people, and there is no movement, I think I have learned a lesson, and I am much more honest. But there was one thing, five days ago, the men went out of the house to buy a large number of fine fabrics, and invited ten fine tailors into the house. Want to come ......."

He paused, looked at Lian Zining's face, and then continued: "I think it's to make some festive clothes." ”

If you don't think so, you don't think so, for the things that Lian Zining explained, Liu Liangchen and others are very serious about it.

Liu Liangchen said vaguely, that is, he was afraid that Lian Zining would not like it in his heart, but he didn't expect Lian Zining's face to be light and bleak, and there was no change at all, he nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "What about Liyue?" ”

"At the last great court meeting in the first month, there were courtiers who admonished the saint, vaguely saying that at the age of the saint, it should be mainly conditioning, and it is best not to be greedy for the good of women, the emperor was furious, demoted the man from the capital, and said that this is a 'family affair', and the courtiers are not allowed to mention it again."

This is obviously quite bad news for Lian Zining, Emperor Zhengde is so determined, obviously he has already ironclad to include that 'Li Xiangjun' in the palace, so it is impossible to rely on the courtiers to admonish this road to achieve the goal. After all, it's just a woman, and it's not such a major event as opening the sea and banning it, so those civil officials won't delay their future because of this.

Lian Zining didn't show impatience, he stood up and paced in the room for a while, staring at Liu Liangchen heavily, and said solemnly word by word: "Liu Liangchen, this official wants to explain something to you." ”

Liu Liangchen owes himself: "My lord, please speak." ”

"This official wants to see Kou Baimen." Lian Zining said in a deep voice: "This is a military order, there is no room for negotiation. ”

"Mark and obey!" Liu Liangchen straightened up and said loudly. …,

He thought for a moment and said, "My lord, this matter is not that difficult. At that time, the people of Luwangfu came out to buy, and they went to the silk shop of Lianji, and even among those tailors, they also mixed in with our people, and they always understood some of the reality and reality in it. It's just that there are two things that are difficult now. ”

Lian Zining said in a deep voice: "You speak." ”

"The first one, you have to find the map of the house. The second is to mark the worry, the people who leave Yue are afraid that they will have to return to Beijing, and once King Lu returns home, everything will be over. ”

"I can't take care of the first thing, this errand has to fall on your head. But," Lian Zining smiled slightly: "In terms of time, the problem is not very big, and the group of princes and ministers from Liyue will soon be busy." ”

―――――――― Dividing Line――――――――

"Haha, good, good, good! Lian Zining did a good job! I really didn't misread him! ”

Zhengde's hearty and happy laughter echoed in the imperial study at the top of the Long Live Peak.

Emperor Zhengde's character is extremely deviant, and he has a considerable degree of resistance to the Forbidden City, which has restrained him for more than ten years and made him very uncomfortable. He is the opposite of his Laozi Emperor Hongzhi, Emperor Hongzhi is the kind of favorite emperor of the Ming Dynasty's civil officials, with a gentle and generous personality, never a dead hand to civil officials, and can listen to persuasion, even if he was scolded on the head, he thought in his heart, 'This is for my good by all the ministers'. One is Zhu Gaochi, the other is him, and the other is the later Emperor Longqing, these three masters who listen to civil officials the most, I don't know how many times they have been pitted by civil officials.

Emperor Zhengde's temper, needless to say, has fought countless times with the civil and official groups in his life, although he didn't win in the end, but he also enjoyed it.

For him, the Forbidden City was like a cage built for him by those civil officials, because he later toured the south and north several times, built leopard houses, and left the palace the largest number since the Ming Dynasty, just to break free from this shackle. This is from Yue. It's also average. And he is quite satisfied with this place, but no matter how leisurely he is, he always has to deal with political affairs, and it is inevitable to use a royal study.

As a result, this became the decision-making center of the Ming Dynasty during this period.

In front of the imperial study, across a small square, is a row of courts, where is the cabinet of the three assistants, the six departments of Shangshu office to deal with government affairs, and the court room is located here, which means that the old men have to climb hundreds of steps every day, and I don't know whether it is intentional or unintentional, except for the first assistant Yang Shen, Emperor Zhengde did not give the glory of the sedan chair in the palace to other people. This time, these adults were tired enough, and after coming up on a cold day, they were covered in stinky sweat, and their small clothes were soaked, so that they had to prepare a change of clothes in the courtroom.

But where it is like the nature of the imperial study, the furnishings are roughly the same, it is an independent palace, the space is huge, the gold bricks are all over the floor, the four walls are extremely high large bookcases, the books placed in it are all brand new, I am afraid that I haven't seen much, but it is the books in a small bookcase closest to the Zhengde Emperor's hand, but I often look through them, which are filled with Buddhist scriptures.

His Majesty worships Buddha and is known to the world.

In the middle is a large sandalwood table, surrounded by bogu shelves, on which are placed some priceless delicate knick-knacks.

At this moment, Emperor Zhengde was standing behind the big sandalwood table, stroking his palms and laughing, his face full of joy.

In front of him lay a recital, spread out, with silver hooks and iron drawings on it.

Ma Yongcheng was waiting on the side, he had followed Emperor Zhengde for more than 50 years, and he knew the emperor's mind the most, and he knew what he should say when the emperor was happy. At that moment, he was hunched and said with a little interest: "Emperor, but what is the big joy?" Let's all follow the emperor and be happy? ”…,

Zhengde laughed and threw the piece to Ma Yongcheng: "See for yourself!" Lian Zining, this kid did a really good job, he went north, fought even better, beat those Jurchens to crying dad and call mother, wolves rushed to the Jurchen Khan's court! Those Jurchen barbarians couldn't stand it anymore, paid compensation, sued for peace, handed over the letter of state, took my Ming Dynasty as the upper country, and called themselves subordinates! Now the envoys who came to worship are already on the way, and in addition, there are dozens of khans and kings of small countries in the northeast, who admire my great tomorrow's prestige, and come to worship! Hahaha......"

After saying that, the joy in my heart could no longer be suppressed, and there was another burst of laughter!

Ma Yongcheng was also trembling in his heart, and hastily read the recital, which was echoed with a smile, a wrinkled old face smiled like a chrysanthemum, and when he saw that his nose was not visible, he smiled: "Oh, this is a great joy!" Those Jurchen Tartars have been entrenched in the north of the Songhua River thirty years ago, unruly, repeatedly invaded the south, killed our border people, killed our border army, invaded our land, and humiliated our country's prestige, which is really a big disaster for the country, like a tumor, but today it was surrendered by Wu Yibo, which is really a blessing for the country! However, if you want the old slave to talk about it! This credit is not all Wu Yibo's. ”

He is the chief eunuch who supervises the affairs of the ceremonies, and in the Ming Dynasty he was called the inner minister, and he went hand in hand with the first assistant of the cabinet, and naturally he was also familiar with political affairs, so it was also a set of things, and it was not much worse than the ministers of the outer court.

Zhengde was in a good mood and asked with a smile: "Yo, then you say, whose credit is there?" ”

"Naturally, it's your credit, the emperor!" Ma Yongcheng said with a smile: "Thinking about Lian Zining, a few years ago it was just a cloth in the capital, although with his words, it is magnificent, magnificent, and it is not a problem to take the examination of the Jinshi, but in the past few years, I can't do this position, and it is not the emperor You have the wisdom of the pearl, you have taken a fancy to him, and you have been promoted all the way." ”

"Although Maxima is good, it must also have Bole to be successful!"

Ma Yongcheng also dragged a sentence at the end.

"Haha, old horse, when did you learn the rules of civil officials in the outer court, but I really like to listen to this!"

Emperor Zhengde scolded with a smile, but Ma Yongcheng's words really scratched his itch, naturally it was a dragon's heart, and it was very comfortable.

Ma Yongcheng smiled playfully, but he was secretly thinking about it in his heart, making up his mind. He is a person who is very deep in the city, otherwise, the Eight Tigers of the year were rampant, but in the end it was the death of death, the depreciation of depreciation, but he was the only one, not only firmly entrenched in the center, but also occupied the position of the minister of the interior for decades, it can be said that he was the sole power, the first person in the inner prison, that is, in the entire Ming Dynasty, is also a number of figures.

Ma Yongcheng of the inner court, Yang Shen of the outer court, and Jiang Bin of the military attache are faintly the three giants of the country.

For Lian Zining, he has always looked at it, but he doesn't care too much, from Buyi to the super count of the national dynasty, although there are very few young people who rise rapidly like such comets in the national dynasty, it does not mean that there is nothing, and its prosperity is also vigorous, which often means that its death is also sudden.

He knew a little bit about the little thing between Lian Zining, Lin Xiongqi, and Liu Jixiang, but he didn't take it to heart.

It's just one sentence after all, like Lian Zining's level, it's not enough for Ma Yongcheng to care about and win over.

But now, he found that he had to face this person. As he said, this young man who was still a cloth in the capital three years ago has quietly grown to the point where he has grown up to the point where he has faced it squarely with countless blood, accumulated white bones, and great military exploits!

He is not a minister, but relies on real military exploits!

He has grown to this point at a young age, and more importantly, this person is in the emperor's heart, and the emperor is quite fond of him. It is conceivable that over time, this young man will definitely be able to grow to a terrible point, and it is not a lie to replace Jiang Bin as the first person among the generals. …,

"It seems that if you have contact with him, you will have a good relationship, and you will see each other in the future." Ma Yongcheng secretly searched in his heart.

Zhengde was happy, and this was the political envoy Fei Pingdao, who was standing below: "Have you seen this concerto?" ”

Fei Ping hurriedly said: "The minister has never seen it. ”

"Hmm." Zhengde nodded: "After I go back, I will copy some of them, and send them to the three adults in the cabinet, the Shangshu Shilang of the Sixth Department, and those little Jiuqing." Let everyone see. ”

"Obey."

Zhengde thought for a while, and said: "In addition, the nine sons of me who listened to the government, they also took a look, and each of them came with an excerpt to talk about the Jurchen matter and how to deal with the aftermath." ”

He took a deep breath: "Let them tell me, how should this work of destroying a country be calculated?" I want to see how capable they are! ”

Fei Ping also responded.

After he retreated, Zhengde said to Ma Yongcheng: "Old Ma, immediately draw up an order, order, King Fu is the main envoy, and Dong Qichang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, is the deputy envoy, responsible for entertaining the Hajj Khans and Jurchen envoys, and tell everyone that this is the first major event since the beginning of the year, and the yamen of all ministries and institutes in the DPRK and China will all take this matter as the center, mobilize manpower and have divisions, send officials to walk, and all listen to orders, and there must be no mistakes!" If it's because someone messed up this matter, wait for the edict to be imprisoned! ”

Ma Yongcheng's heart sank, and he hurried to be.

On the sixth day of the second month of the fifty-third year of Zhengde, Wu Yijun flew to report that the army of Wu Yi went north, and the White Eagle Gorge and the ancient river in the south, in two places, defeated the Jurchen army, beheaded 20,000, captured more than 10,000, and the soldiers approached the Jurchen Khan's court. The Jurchen Khanate was forced to be helpless, so he sent an envoy to sue for peace.

Indemnity, peace, delivery of national credentials, worship my Ming Dynasty as the kingdom, and call yourself a minister!

And send envoys to pay tribute.

Emperor Dayue, and then, Emperor Zhengde issued an edict, ordering the transmission of Lian Zining's recital to the cabinet of the three assistants, the six Shangshu Shilang and Xiao Jiuqing and others.

He also issued an edict ordering the nine princes who had to listen to the government to write down a statement on this matter, express their opinions, and how to deal with the aftermath.

He also issued an edict that His Royal Highness King Fu was the chief envoy, and Dong Qichang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was the deputy envoy, responsible for entertaining the Hajj Khans and Jurchen envoys.

The issuance of three edicts in one day is also an extremely rare phenomenon in the history of the dynasty, which shows the importance that the Holy Lord attaches to this matter.

The news spread quickly.

When the General Administration Department was still drafting the documents to be shown to the ministers and the Nine Emperor Princes, the news had already spread from the mouths of the swordsmen and pen officials of the General Administration Division. In the imperial court, there have never been many secrets, especially from the palace.

In less than a cup of tea, the entire Liyue up and down all knew the news. And immediately after, there were countless envelopes and fast horses from Liyue towards the capital, towards the four directions of this huge empire.

In less than an hour, up and down the capital, the entire center of the Ming Dynasty already knew the news.

Even in the restaurants, opera gardens, and courtyards in the capital, the news is going viral, and the people at the feet of the Son of Heaven, but whoever has ears, except for bottles and cans, who doesn't know the news?

Up and down, it was like being thrown into a heavy depth charge, and it was like being struck by a huge thunderbolt, and for a while, they were silent!

"My heavenly grandfather, this is a subjugation of a country! Destroy a country! Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, has we made such great contributions? Have you ever done this? ”

The capital, Zhang Xianggong Temple Street, Sihailou, the prosperity is still the same.

It's still three stories high, it's still a painted column, it's still the black plaque, it's still magnificent.

Second floor, lobby.

If Lian Zining returns here, he will definitely feel a lot of emotion, he is here, and Sun Ting has set up a beam, so that there will be countless turmoil after that. It was also here that he met Kou Baimen for the first time, and he was entangled for a lifetime, and he was destined to be unable to leave. It was here that he wrote the song "If life is only as it was first seen, it is amazingly beautiful, and it has been heard all over the world since then".

The only difference is that on the wall here, a framed calligraphy and painting has been hung, and the words on it, silver hook and iron painting, are excellent willow fonts.

It is that song If life is only as first seen, in the lower right corner, there are a few small words - on the seventh day of the eighth month of the year of Renwu, Lian Zining inscribed in Sihailou.

The year of Renwu is the fiftieth year of Zhengde.

After Lian Zining composed that song, two days later, the boss of the Sihailou found Lian Zining's house and contributed 100 taels. (。
