The concept of high merit and earthquake lord has always been hovering in Sun Chengzong's mind.

Zhu Youzhen is indeed a very diligent emperor, since ascending the throne, in the face of a situation full of holes, hard work, but unfortunately the effect has not been good, there are many reasons, but the biggest problem is still in terms of employment, the internal party struggle in the imperial court is in full swing, can not be controlled, all over the country has suffered from famine year after year, coupled with the invasion of the Houjin and the harassment of the rogues, the dynasty has reached the verge of collapse.

Su Tiancheng's birth began to change this situation, and such changes were carried out silently, from a simple start, a few years have passed, the imperial court began to change, a gratifying scene has emerged, the fierce Jiangning camp has brought great hope to the imperial court, but how long can such a change last.

After Su Tiancheng's high school hall examination list, he applied for release, which can be said to be a wise decision, stay away from the strife of the imperial court, stay away from the party strife, and go to the county magistrate as a role model, if you don't pay attention to it, it will be lost in everyone's sight, but Su Tiancheng has made great achievements, and even shocked the court and the emperor's achievements.

Later developments do not need to be repeated with the right.

What Sun Chengzong is worried about is that Su Tiancheng is already a governor, an official of the third grade, as a young man in his twenties, he can reach such a height, which is rare in ancient and modern times, and it is very obvious that this is the truth, that is. From this moment on, Su Tiancheng will face attacks, slander, slander and calculations from all sides, both from the imperial court and from the barbarians, and the development of facts fully proves this.

The attack of the ministers of the court, the calculation of the barbarians. It's all good to say, you can find a way to deal with it, but from the emperor's suspicion, how can Su Tiancheng deal with it.

In the past few decades of his career in the sea, Sun Chengzong has seen too much, and he even became a victim of the contest between imperial power and ministers, and was forced to go to his official position and go home to retire. This kind of struggle is very cruel, the young Su Tiancheng was able to find such a problem and put forward a crucial suggestion, the royal family entered the court to do things for officials, which undoubtedly helped the emperor consolidate the imperial power, and was favored by the emperor.

But the emperor is also a human being. When his ministers have too much power, too much merit, and even no reward. What will happen, who knows.

Sun Chengzong believed that it was only a matter of time before the Jiangning battalion exterminated the Liukou and pacified Liaodong, and at this stage, in order to maintain the stability of the dynasty. For the development of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor can fully trust Su Tiancheng, but what to do in the future, or in the process of development, the emperor thinks that he is completely in control of the situation. There is no need for Su Tiancheng to continue to do things, and he is even afraid that Su Tiancheng's power is too great, and at this time, I am afraid that something big will happen.

Su Tiancheng's power is great, but it is not so easy to be overthrown, in case of a violent conflict, the Ming Dynasty is very likely to be destroyed.

Sun Chengzong has thought of this a long time ago, I believe that not only he thought of it, but also some smart ministers also thought of this matter, but everyone would not say it, those who had a good impression of Su Tiancheng were secretly worried, and those who had opinions on Su Tiancheng even waited to see the jokes.

Sun Chengzong is loyal to the emperor in his bones, so when he has no choice, as long as he still has a breath, it is to maintain the prestige of the emperor, but Sun Chengzong understands very well that he may not be able to wait for that day.

Life is rare for seventy years, he should have seen through a lot of things, and his heart is indifferent, not to mention that Sun Chengzong is seventy-five years old, although his health is still very good, but his energy is obviously a little weak, especially since he served as the deputy assistant of the cabinet, there are too many things to worry about, if it is not for the emperor's proper care, it is really unbearable.

It is precisely because of this age that Sun Chengzong made a major decision to have a good talk with the emperor and talk about Su Tiancheng, even if the emperor is unwilling to listen, he has to say it himself.

According to Sun Chengzong's own understanding and accurate judgment of character, he felt that Su Tiancheng was dedicated to the Ming Dynasty, without the slightest thought, and in history, such ministers were not without them, and they became the mainstay of the country.

Moreover, Sun Chengzong had already noticed that the emperor had some opinions about Wen Tiren, the first assistant of the cabinet, and was faintly preparing to make himself the first assistant of the cabinet. Although he is old, with such an opportunity, Sun Chengzong will not shirk, at least he can stabilize the situation.

The emperor trusted him so much, Sun Chengzong felt that if he didn't say something, it would be his dereliction of duty and his heart was uneasy.

There seems to be providence in the dark.

Zhu Youzhen summoned Sun Chengzong alone.

This is Zhu Youzhen is ready to make up his mind, after talking with Sun Chengzong, he is ready to replace the head of the cabinet, as for the ministers of the cabinet, they also need to be adjusted, Liu Zongzhou and Huang Daozhou and others, their thinking has changed, such a capable person can also enter the cabinet, in that case, the government may be able to suddenly refresh.

The importance of employing people, of course, Zhu Youzhen is clear, since he ascended the throne, he has always thought about the strength of the dynasty, and now that the opportunity has appeared, how can he not seize it.

Wen Tiren has been the head of the cabinet for six years, and he has more than enough to keep and not to pioneer, and he likes to engage in small groups, so that the party disputes within the court cannot be resolved in a real sense.

The Temple of Nourishing the Heart.

In the hall, there were only Zhu Youzhen and Sun Chengzong, and even Wang Chengen, who had been accompanying Zhu Youzhen, did not appear behind Zhu Youzhen.

Sun Chengzong needed such an opportunity.

"Sun Aiqing, I want to talk to you well, here I and you two, I hope Sun Aiqing has nothing to talk about."

"The minister is waiting for such an opportunity, and the minister has a lot of words in his heart, thinking of reporting to the emperor."

Zhu Youzhen was a little strange, he should have said it first, talk about the situation in the court, and analyze the Aiqing in the cabinet, but he didn't expect Sun Chengzong to take the initiative to speak first.

"Sun Aiqing thinks of something, just say it."

"The minister has been thinking about it for a long time, and today he is bold, if the minister has something that is not right, please ask the emperor to condemn it."

"I have already said it, here I and you and the two of you, it's okay to say anything, Sun Aiqing don't have any worries."

"The minister wants to talk about the emperor Taiji first, the minister and the Houjin Tartar fight, not once or twice, once for the needs of the war, the side has learned some of the situation, since the Wanli years, the Houjin to the land of projectiles, repeatedly against my Ming Dynasty, but also achieved a lot of victories, to be honest, at present, my Ming Dynasty, has not completely exterminated the strength of the Houjin."

Zhu Youzhen nodded, he didn't know what Lu Dao was for, his heart was very calm, Sun Chengzong's words, he listened to it.

"The minister has thought of a question many times, why does Houjin have such strength, why can it develop, although he has not been able to fully understand the reason, but there is a reason, the minister has figured it out, that is, open-mindedness in employing people."

"The Houjin place is not big, the population is not large, and I have no possibility to compare with the Ming Dynasty, so there are not many civil and military talents under Huang Taiji, he can see everyone all the time, what ideas, what suggestions, you can talk face-to-face, the biggest advantage of this is to be able to communicate face-to-face, avoid contradictions and estrangement, and the top and bottom can be united, and naturally can do a lot of things."

"The minister is old, he has seen through a lot of things, and he often wonders how many years he can live, in such anxiety, the minister suddenly understood these practices of Huang Taiji, and understood the four words of family and country and the world."

"Let's just say that I am in the Ming Dynasty, the emperor has so many civil and military ministers, there are so many people, no one thinks the same, but the most basic idea is to be able to eat, have a place to live, have clothes and beds, and have enough food and clothing, if these requirements are met, you may have to think about more gold and silver treasures, and a more comfortable life, so the minister summed it up, many ministers, including the ministers, think of living in peace and stability, if there is a comfortable environment, do not think about tossing."

"Maybe it's because the minister is old and has such an idea, the minister thinks that the Emperor Taiji of Houjin may have also done this, so he can make the whole family work together, and the minister also knows that Huang Taiji has also experienced a lot of things and has taken some extraordinary measures, otherwise it is impossible for him to stabilize his position."

"Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, Shang Kexi and others, Huang Taiji have canonized them on the throne, which shows that Huang Taiji's ambition is not ordinary, but it also shows another problem, that is, Huang Taiji can accept all rivers."

"The minister said this, he implored the emperor to think more, the minister was offended, and suggested that the emperor accommodate more civil and military ministers, especially those ministers who can make contributions to my Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Youzhen's expression has always been very calm, not as usual, showing anger or dissatisfaction at every turn, he looked at Sun Chengzong.

"Sun Aiqing, what do you mean, I understand, I really can't hear such words, think about the court, so many civil and military ministers, I can't talk to them one by one, I don't know what they think, sometimes I have to ponder, what are they thinking, are they against me, are they talking badly about me behind my back, think about it like this, the more I think about it, the more troublesome it is, and it is difficult for me to be stable."

"I want to thank Sun Aiqing for his reminder, I know that you are talking about Su Tiancheng, many ministers in this court may have ideas, Su Tiancheng has made such a great contribution, and controls an army like Jiangning Camp in his hands, if he has the intention of rebellion, then how can it be good, where do I have so many gold and silver treasures to reward, maybe in the end, if you want to give up this throne, you still have to control it in advance, so some people suspect that Su Tiancheng wants to rebel, and asks me to be vigilant, or even to do it in advance, can't make Su Tiancheng's wings full. ”

"I have thought a lot, today I heard Sun Aiqing's words, I completely understood, I know what to do, Sun Aiqing rest assured, if I don't do much in the future, or can't control my emotions, Sun Aiqing will definitely remind me more." (To be continued......)
