617 A big-eared scraper slapped his face
As for speaking ill of himself, it is because he has always been very unfriendly with Sun Yanzhi, who used to be the right attendant of the Criminal Department, not to mention that it is also mixed with the interests of King Lu and King Fu, and it is each its master.
As soon as Dai Anlan's words fell, there were thirty or forty people in the courtiers' queue, and they all said: "The ministers seconded the proposal!" β
Then, one after another, people came forward to second.
These people have the henchmen of the blessed king, but there are also courtiers who sincerely support the establishment of the Nuer Gandu Division. This momentum immediately suppressed the previous opposition.
Seeing this scene, Sun Yanzhi closed his eyes in pain.
He knew that he was finished, and what made him even more unbelievable was - how could Lian Zining have snare so many people?
Without even Zining knowing it, his painstaking move broke Sun Yanzhi's painstaking move.
A complete defeat.
Seeing this, Zhengde pondered for a moment, and then asked Yang Shen, the first assistant, "Why does Yang Qing think it is?" β
Yang Shen said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is a great good thing to set up a slave to do the capital. Everything is not in the system, but in the people. β
There was a lot of meaning in his words, and Zhengde glanced at him and nodded.
He pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked Helian Leopard, "Do you know how big the land north of the Songjiang River is?" β
Helian Leopard was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart, where do I know, but he still arrived: "Your Majesty, the land north of the Songjiang River is vast and boundless, and the subordinates and others have never come here, but again, the warriors of our clan went to the easternmost tribe to exchange for salt." When the snow melted, I went and came back knowing that the leaves had already withered and yellowed. β
When the crowd heard. They were all amazed at how big it was.
"If you calculate it like this, I'm afraid there will always be three or five thousand miles." I have to say about the people of this era. There is really not much concept of distance, Zhengde said lightly, then turned his head sideways, and said to Ma Yongcheng: "According to the decree of the priest and the supervisor, abolish the Nuergan Governor's District, and set up the Nuergandu Division, the original Liaobei General, Jianzhou General, Asujiang General, and Songhuajiang General remain unchanged, and Jiangbei General will be added to govern the Jiangbei ground." These five generals. All of them are under the command of the slaves. β
Ma Yongcheng hurriedly responded.
The ministers were all busy digesting the news, and some of them had already begun to think about sending letters to their close friends after they went back later, to see if they could get some benefits from the establishment of the Nuer Gandu Division and the new Jiangbei General's jurisdiction this time.
Zhengde said again: "The decree, the Governor of Nuergan will be abolished as a whole, and Xu Ang, the governor of Nuergan, has guarded Nuergan for more than a year, and has not made any achievements." Ordered to recall the capital, read its military affairs, and Teren ordered to enter the military department, and was replaced as the left squire of the military department. The rest of the government office staff. Alternate appointments. β
This appointment also caused a small commotion.
Logically speaking, Governor Nuergan was the same as the other governors of the Nine Sides. They are all the titles of the second grade, and they are in charge of the military and political power of a place. Usually they also add titles such as squire and imperial envoy, which can be said to be a high authority. Recall Xu Lang, the slave governor, back to the capital to serve as the left attendant of the military department. Inevitably, it means that there is some demotion to punishment. But there is also a hidden secret, this slave is not the same as other realms, other governors are the following general soldiers, a group of guard commanders and the like, and below him, there are directly the four generals, the four generals who are in charge of the army on the horse, and the four generals who are in charge of the people. So much so that the power of the governor of Nuergan has actually been hollowed out, and it has only become a microphone for the imperial court and the major generals, and sometimes it can't even play the function of a microphone.
And this situation was acquiesced by the imperial court.
It seems to be glamorous to be the governor of Yinuer, but in fact it is also a chore, in fact, Xu Ang was unsatisfactory in the capital at the beginning, and people were forced to redeem it.
The one who took him away was Dai Zhangpu, who was the left squire of the upper military department.
It can also be seen that Emperor Zhengde also compensated Xu Ang.
And it seems that the biggest beneficiary of this order now is the current military department Zuo Shilang temporarily acting as the military department secretary Dai Zhangpu, although he temporarily represents the military department Shangshu, but this has been almost half a year, the temporary replacement of this hat, has never been taken off, his own position, or the military department Zuo Shilang. And now that Xu Lang has been added, he has naturally become the justifiable secretary of the military department.
Zhengde glanced at the ministers standing at the front, and said: "Later today, Yang Qing, the three of your cabinet and the three departments of the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of War will discuss together. β
Yang Shen and the others responded.
Zhengde said again: "Since the establishment of the Nuer Gandu Division has been decided today, then, the secretaries will discuss the candidate for the commander of the Nuer Gandu!" β
When everyone heard this, they were all refreshed, and their hearts were playing.
This kind of major event in the appointment of personnel is what interests them the most.
However, when they heard Emperor Zhengde's words, the first name that sounded in many people's ears was Lian Zining!
This is also understandable, when the other three generals are dull and inactive, and there is no news of a battle in a year and a half, the news of Lian Zining's victory has been passed one after another. The great victories consolidated the emperor's praise for his 'famous generals of the country', and almost made people form an illusion - it seems that Lian Zining and his Wu Yijun represent the entire Northeast.
And in all fairness, with his great military exploits, with his military talents, with his title, and even with the strength behind him, it is enough to take on this important task.
But Lian Zining also has flaws, fatal flaws.
His qualifications are too shallow, and his ascent is too fast!
is not a weak crown at a young age, and he is already a super count of the national dynasty and a border general of the second grade, and the speed of promotion is inevitably too fast. Because the dynasty, especially the officialdom, has always attached great importance to seniority.
In addition to Lian Zining, the youngest of the others is already fifty years younger, and they are all veteran generals who have been in Rong Ma for decades.
At least it sounds, they are a little more reliable than Lian Zining.
Obviously, they all think that Lian Zining is the most suitable. But he didn't want to come out, and the people on Dai Zhangpu's side were not easy to open their mouths because they had concerns. And those who want to recommend others feel that the person they say is really a little unqualified. Then there was a moment of silence in the hall.
Under the emperor's throne, the front is naturally Yang Shen and other important ministers, and on both sides of the throne, there are four people standing each, these eight people stand facing the ministers, it can be said that the entire court situation is in full view, and the geographical location is excellent. It is the Nine Emperors who listen to the government in addition to King Lu. They stood in that position, and the rule given by Zhengde was that they were only allowed to listen. Good students learn and are not allowed to speak, which means only listening to politics and not discussing politics. And today, King Lu didn't come, because he was locked up and confined because he thought about it head-on!
The first on the left hand side of Zhengde is King Yong, and on the other hand, the first guard on the right hand side. It is the blessed king, which also shows that the status of the two is the highest.
At this time, King Yong nodded invisibly somewhere.
The man who was motioned by him also nodded slightly, and was about to come out to speak. But he was snatched to the front, and he saw that in the ranks of military attachΓ©s and relatives, the loyal Hou Jinyiwei commanded Jiang Bin to stride out: "Your Majesty." The minister has his own music. β
"Speak!"
Jiang Bin's voice was like Hong Zhongdao: "The minister thinks that Yang Xuezhong, the general of Liaobei." He has been guarding the frontier for decades and is familiar with the army. He knows the north very well, and he is really the best candidate for the command of the slaves. β
Jiang Bin was originally staying in the capital, but this time Zhengde also recruited him back. He recommended Yang Xuezhong, naturally because he had his own selfish intentions, firstly, because he had a deep hatred with Lian Zining, and secondly, because Yang Xuezhong was already attached to him and became his lackey, and once Yang Xuezhong ascended to the throne and controlled Lian Zining, he could reverse the unfavorable situation of the secret war between him and Lian Zining.
As soon as he spoke, his henchmen naturally echoed one after another, and the momentum was huge for a while.
And as soon as the words fell, there was a person standing up over there, it was Huang Xian who was the official branch to the matter, this Yang Shen's protΓ©gΓ© was jealous and hateful, and he couldn't tolerate sand in his eyes, and every time he rushed to the front line, he sneered at the moment: "Your Majesty, the minister has this music!" β
Emperor Zhengde said lightly: "Speak!" β
Huang Xian arched his hand to Jiang Bin and said: "The lower official thinks that the Hou Ye's words are wrong, thinking that Yang Xuezhong, the general of Liaobei, is just relying on nepotism to come to this point, doing nothing, and recovering grace in vain, but just a straw bale waste, how can such a person be virtuous and steal this position?" The lower official thought that what Hou Ye said was inappropriate. β
Jiang Bin didn't take him seriously, and sneered: "Lord Huang, when the dynasty slandered the second-class members of the country, you are so bold!" β
"Who says it's slander?" Huang Xian was also not to be outdone, and immediately fought back: "If the official is good, half a year ago, Jinyiwei went to the Northeast to investigate Yang Xuezhong, and I heard that a lot of evidence was investigated, but then it was not done." And today, the Hou Ye is here to speak to him, and the lower officials are all in charge of the matter, and they are in charge of supervising the impeachment, but they want to ask here, what is the inside story! β
The spearhead of this sentence was directly pointed at Jiang Bin, but Jiang Bin was also an old and cunning person, so he just laughed: "Hearsay, dare to talk about it?" This official is on the matter, and there is no selfishness! β
"Don't you know that the dynasty set up the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the six departments were given to the matter, just for the sake of rumors?"
At this time, a clear voice sounded, but it was the Imperial History of the Left Capital of the Imperial Palace, Zhou Hao, the head of the Ming Dynasty supervision system, he came out of the queue and arched his hand to Zhengde and said: "Your Majesty, the minister also thinks that Yang Xuezhong is not enough to be useful, and the minister thinks that Wu Yi Bo Lian Zining is a famous general of the country, who has won many battles and is known to be resourceful, and he can be worthy of this important task." β
This person is one of the henchmen and generals on King Yong's side.
The appearance of this heavyweight immediately attracted the seconding of many officials who were waiting, not to mention those officials who were already very much in favor of Lian Zining.
Jiang Bin's side was naturally not to be outdone, and ridiculed each other, but Lian Zining really didn't have anything to find fault with, so they had to hold on to Lian Zining's lack of qualifications and not let go.
However, above this court, after all, it is not possible for factions to decide everything, the achievements of Lian Zining and Yang Xuezhong are here, and anyone can see it clearly, whether there are more people who support Lian Zining. However, Jiang Bin is also deeply rooted in the DPRK, and there are many henchmen, and he has already made up his mind to never let Lian Zining take the position. He is very resolute, so he is on his side. Although it is at a disadvantage, it is not the kind that is immediately defeated.
Even the people from the Yongwang faction who were secretly coerced by Lian Zining joined in. also failed to suppress Jiang Bin and others.
And characters like Dai Zhangpu, who can play a big role, are limited to their relationship with Lian Zining and can't speak.
Seeing that Wenchen and the generals were almost going to fight again, once again like last time, due to Lian Zining, a big dispute that affected the court was formed.
It's just that Lian Zining's methods are by no means more than these.
At this moment, suddenly there was a noisy sound outside the hall, and everyone's eyes were attracted to it. Then the royal guard with a knife officer who stood outside the door was in charge, and Zhu Xiu, the third son of Zhu Fu's family, the prince of Chengguo, who had the title of command, appeared at the door of the palace and said loudly: "Minister Zhu Xiu, there is something important to report!" β
Zhengde waved his hand: "Xuan!" β
Zhu Xiu untied his sword, took off his helmet and put it aside, strode to the front of the palace, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the northeast, and the messenger is waiting for His Highness." β
"Oh? Northeast Emergency? Zhengde raised his eyebrows. With some excitement on his face, he said, "Could it be that Lian Zining has won the battle again?" Hurry up! β
Zhu Xiu's face was ugly, and she said with some difficulty: "Your Majesty, it's not a victory." Yes,"
He paused. Fang Zi said loudly: "The Jurchen general Amin attacked the territory of the Liaobei General in the south, and at the same time, the White Lotus Sect rebels in the territory of the Liaobei General took the opportunity to make trouble. Swarmed up, and the people were in turmoil. Conquering the city, it is now an unstoppable situation! Those messengers. It was sent by General Yang Xuezhong to ask for help. β
"What?"
Emperor Zhengde's face was stunned for a moment, and then it turned from red to white, then to cyan, and finally to a gloomy black like an iron pot, and a sinister aura condensed from between his eyebrows, and the muscles on his face twitched, but he said in a deep voice: "Take it." β
Ma Yongcheng hurriedly got off the throne and handed it to him, his body trembling a little.
The hall was as quiet as a tomb.
Jiang Bin only felt that it was dark in front of him, and he almost fainted.
This is really a huge irony, he just recommended Yang Xuezhong as the candidate for the commander of the slave Gandu, and then there was a civil rebellion in the territory under the jurisdiction of the general of Liaobei, and the White Lotus Sect was in turmoil, Yang Xuezhong was unable to resist, so he had to ask the center for help.
With such a 'talent', how can He De take on such a heavy responsibility?
It's like a hard ear scraper, slapping it heavily on the face.
Jiang Bin leaned back, if it weren't for the two people behind him who helped him up, he would really fall to the ground.
He took a few rough breaths, and a strong sense of powerlessness appeared in his heart, he was afraid that he was powerless about this matter.
And the people who were arguing with him before, now they don't dare to speak, one by one poking there with big eyes and staring at each other, everyone understands the truth of accepting it when they see it, at this time the emperor is afraid that he is in anger, but he never dares to recruit a bad head at this time.
The atmosphere above the entire court hall is extremely weird.
Everyone had their own ideas, but everyone's eyes were focused on Zhengde, wanting to observe from his body language how big the White Lotus Sect uprising was this time.
This time the sudden news made everyone a little confused, and they didn't have time to make any preparations, but they only felt that today was really a word - eventful, unsettled, and wave after wave.
Then everyone was silent.
Because they have seen that Emperor Zhengde's face is getting more and more ugly, the green tendons on his forehead are jumping up and down, the muscles at the corners of his mouth are twitching, and his whole body is trembling a little, and the hand that pinched the chapter is already faintly pale because of the force.
Obviously, the emperor is already on the verge of rage, which shows that the situation in the territory under the jurisdiction of the general of Liaobei is definitely not optimistic, and it is even much more serious than everyone imagined!
After Emperor Zhengde finished reading the recital, a touch of violence flashed on his face, and he threw the recital to the ground, slapped it on the armrest of the dragon chair, and scolded angrily: "Waste, Yang Xuezhong, this waste!" It deserves a thousand cuts! β
Emperor Zhengde was so angry that Ma Yongcheng was so frightened that he knelt on the ground.
The ministers below were also shocked.
"Jiang Bin, immediately send Jinyi Wei to the north to lock Yang Xuezhong! Bring him back to the capital division, and I will cut him with a thousand knives! β
Emperor Zhengde roared viciously.
Just now, his words were like a ruthless ear scraper, slapped Jiang Bin's face fiercely. made him feel a little disgraced, Jiang Bin listened to Zhengde's order at the moment. Immediately it was a great joy, this was a good opportunity to clear up the relationship with Yang Xuezhong.
I want to come down. But he saw an old man standing up at the front of the civil official queue, it was Yang Shen, the first assistant of the cabinet, Yang Shen arched his hand to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, you must not do this!" β
"How?" Emperor Zhengde stared at him with a gloomy face: "What do you want to say?" β
If it were someone else, I was afraid that I would already be scared and speechless, but Yang Shen was not afraid at all, and he said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty." Although Yang Xuezhong is a waste, he has been a general in Liaobei for more than ten years, and he has a high prestige in the local army, and he can also control the army. And if it is a change of generals before the battle, the army's heart must be unstable, and if it is unreasonable, it will be taken advantage of by the rebels of the White Lotus Sect. If you don't leave Yang Xuezhong alive for the time being, he will be severely reprimanded, and he will be guilty of meritorious service, and wait for this matter. Make a decision again. β
These words are scheming, and they can be said to be quite insidious, so use Yang Xuezhong first. Then clean him up afterwards. It can be said that Lao Cheng is planning the country's words, after he finished speaking. Dong Qichang stood up and said, "Your Majesty." The minister thought that what Lord Shoufu said was very true. β
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Xie Tingshi, the second assistant of the cabinet, Lin Jingyi, the third assistant, Dai Zhangpu, the secretary of the military department, and others also seconded the proposal.
Emperor Zhengde's face was cloudy, and after a while, the anger and resentment in his heart also disappeared a little, so he took a deep breath and said, "Okay, just according to what Qing said." β
He pointed to the music on the ground: "Ma Yongcheng, read it to everyone." β
"Yes, Emperor."
Then Ma Yongcheng read it with a sharp voice, it turned out that after the White Lotus Sect in the territory under the jurisdiction of the general of Liaobei, it spread extremely rapidly, but in just one month, it has spread to the entire territory of the territory under the jurisdiction of the general of Liaobei, and the army of the general of Liaobei is in internal and external difficulties, and he is helpless. When Yang Xuezhong wrote this letter, it was the sixth day of the second month of the 53rd year of Zhengde, and at that time, the entire Liaobei general's territory, thirty percent of the land in the north had been occupied by the Jurchens, and half of the land in the south had fallen into the hands of the White Lotus Sect, and the land occupied by the officers and soldiers was only two percent. It's just that he is trapped in a few fortified cities, and he has completely turned into a defensive position.
After listening to Ma Yongcheng's recitation, everyone's hearts were heavy.
No one expected that this time the momentum of the rebels would be so fierce and the scale would be so large.
Since the founding of the country, there have been a lot of rebellions, I am afraid that there are always dozens of times, but there is not a single time, in just a month, it has swept thousands of miles, and the scale has grown to more than 200,000. You must know that the north is sparsely populated, and if you calculate it by this number, I am afraid it is equivalent to the scale of one million people swept in the densely populated area of the south of the Yangtze River.
The uprising was extremely swift and on a very large scale, and this was one of them.
Second, there are not only internal thieves, but also external thieves! Although Yang Xuezhong's intelligence did not mention the collusion between the two, the timing of this incident was too coincidental, the children here went south, and the White Lotus Sect over there caused trouble, if you want to say that there is no collusion, who can you deceive? This is the first time in more than 100 years.
The third is the speed of its siege.
In the past, the rebel uprisings were often both prosperous and prosperous, and their demise was also sudden, and they all started in the countryside at the beginning and swept quickly, but it was difficult to attack the cities guarded by officers and soldiers, and often suffered heavy losses and no results, so they could only wander around. And now, Yang Xuezhong has only a few cities left for people to beat, which can also show the incompetence of his people and the courage of his soldiers.
Jiang Bin felt even more gloomy, and returned to his seat with a calm face.
Emperor Zhengde suddenly looked at Tuha, and said with a cold face: "Tuha, this Amin, what's the matter?" Didn't the Jin Kingdom all surrender? How dare you come to me like this? β
There was already a murderous aura in his eyebrows when he spoke, obviously because he was angry with Tuha because of this.
Tuha immediately called out to hug Tianqu, and said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty Mingjian, the Emperor of the Heavenly Dynasty, as early as a year ago, Wu Yibo conquered the north and destroyed the Haixi Jurchens, and Amin fled to Jiahewei in the jurisdiction of the general of Liaobei at that time, and the Haixi Jurchens were all destroyed, and he was already self-established from our Jin country, and he ignored them when we sent a few documents. This has nothing to do with us! We, the Kingdom of Jin, are sincerely subservient to His Majesty the Emperor. (To be continued.) )
