Chapter 511: Let's find fault

The straight-line distance between the West Street of the Imperial City and the Zhonghe Hall is actually not far, but the actual distance is worlds apart. Therefore, no matter how loud the shouts of the people are, in fact, they cannot be transmitted to the Jinluan Palace, and of course the adults in the hall cannot hear it.

What's more, even if they heard it, they didn't have time to think about it, and when the crowd was full of excitement on West Street, the atmosphere in the Zhonghe Hall was very strange.

The courtiers didn't know the situation at all, what they could do was to keep playing all kinds of political affairs, and then wait for Zhengde's 'uh-ah' response, which was like a big retreat, which didn't take long, but everyone who went out of the class to start playing was in a cold sweat.

Could it be that the emperor is just tossing people to play? Everyone was puzzled, but they didn't dare to stop, once they stopped, the emperor would repeat the previous words...... Or is the emperor really planning to lay off employees? From the lack of officials at the time of the founding of the country to the redundancy in the middle and late periods, the Ming Dynasty followed a similar trajectory.

In the name of eliminating redundant personnel, it can not only save expenses but also crack down on the morale party, but it cannot but be said to be a good way to kill two birds with one stone, but it is a bit out of place to use it at this time, right?

The disaster in Liaodong is like fire, can the emperor really sit idly by? Or is the elimination of redundant personnel just a faΓ§ade on the surface, but in fact, the emperor has other plans? Li Dongyang's mind was full of question marks, and on his forehead, sweat was also trickling down, and Wang Wei on the side was also average, the reason was very simple, the psychological pressure was too great.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Zhu Qin, the governor of Shandong, ...... said, "Although political affairs are complicated, there are only a limited number of important things that can be called major affairs, so the important surnames of political affairs have also declined rapidly, from major events in the DPRK and China to local major events.

"Hmm." Zhengde's reaction didn't change much.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Wei Haiwei commanded Li Yu to disappear in Hejian Province, and the governor Zhu Qinjuan asked for ...... Should the Hejian Prefecture Yin be instructed to investigate in detail? After all, it's an official of the imperial court, this ......"

Zhengde suddenly straightened up and asked with interest: "Then since Li Yu is the commander of Weihaiwei, how could he go to Hejian Mansion?" ”

"This ......," Yan Zhongyu immediately hesitated.

He is also a squire anyway, and he didn't pay attention to this kind of trivial matter originally, but the disappearance of the commander reported by Zhu Qin was not one or two, but one [***], many generals of the coastal guards left their posts without permission, and this Li Yu's special thing is that he ran a little far, and he didn't return for a long time.

This kind of thing will happen, and the reason is very simple, these people are all scared, and of course it is Xie Hong's fleet that scares them. But the reason is difficult to say, one is because of Xie Hong, and the other is that the generals under his jurisdiction escaped from the battle, and there is no brilliance on his face.

Without waiting for Yan Zhongyu to answer, Zhengde immediately snorted coldly: "This kind of thing actually happened under his jurisdiction, how did Zhu Qin, the governor, become the governor?" dismissed his officials, removed his fame, and cut his post to the people. ”

"Your Majesty......" Yan Zhongyu was taken aback, and was about to distinguish it, but he saw a cold gaze sweeping over, and staring firmly at him, "What is the opinion of the military department on the treatment plan of that Li Yu and those generals who escaped from the battle?" ”

"This matter ......" Yan Zhongyu's heart was cold, the emperor actually knew the cause and effect of this matter, and he still held on to it, is it Xie Hong, or ...... He glanced sideways at Cao Yuan, and saw that the other party was sneering and looking at him, and his heart was even colder, it turned out that it was the imperial party that was in trouble, and he wanted to take the opportunity to completely eliminate the military department's soldier party forces!

"Your Majesty, escape from the battle, and kill the ...... according to the law" According to the tacit agreement reached by the Shi Party, Liaodong and Xie Hong are the focus, if it is related to this, then they should resist with all their might, but since it has nothing to do with it, Yan Zhongyu has no intention of resisting, so as not to follow in the footsteps of Zhu Qin.

Those guards had nothing to do with him, so naturally there was nothing to be reluctant about. is a little embarrassed about Zhu Qin, but if the emperor has the intention of finding faults, even if he Yan Zhongyu doesn't say it, and Cao Yuan's book is not only a snitch, Zhu Qin can only complain about his bad life.

"Well, okay, let's do it, I'm done." Zhengde nodded, and said: "Cao Yuan, with the example of Shandong, the guards in various parts of the Ming Dynasty should also be rectified, and I will leave this matter to you, you go back and draw up a charter and hand it over to me as soon as possible." ”

"Wechen obeys."

It is rare to see Zhengde react, Yan Zhongyu is in the game, and he has no time to think about it, but Li Dongyang's brain is running rapidly, and he quickly came to a conclusion: The emperor took the opportunity to take the control of the guards in various places, and then follow the old example to implement the new policy in Liaodong!

However, it is still the same sentence, it should be true in theory, but this matter is out of place, doesn't the emperor know about the natural disasters in Liaodong? Or does it mean that without Xie Hong's guidance, the emperor will only stick to the rules?

Li Dongyang was still very confused, and even Zhengde and Cao Yuan sang and harmonized, and finalized the matter on the spot, but he didn't make any move. In general, the Scholars still respected him, and since he did not move, this matter passed smoothly.

Related to this matter, the handling of those generals, as well as Zhu Qin's dismissal, etc., were naturally also passed. Among the people present, it was not that they did not have friendships with Zhu Qin, or had a relationship, but they did not dare to jump out at this time.

Without the support of Li Dongyang and others, under the strength of Zhengde, isn't it an unlucky one? Zhu Maogong has already dedicated himself to the righteousness, of course he has to keep a useful body in order to repay later.

With Yan Zhongyu's experience, the next people who played things were more careful, and the things they played were smaller and smaller, for fear that they would catch some tricks for Zhengde, and if they were unlucky, they would probably involve their colleagues.

And Zhengde seemed to be asleep again, except for the word 'uh-ah', there was no other response.

I can't think about it thoroughly, I can't think about it, seeing that the court meeting has been going on for nearly two hours, it is almost noon, but it is still far from the end, the courtiers are a little anxious, even if there is a wide heart, the heart is not in a hurry, but the legs and feet are weak, a handful of age, one station is two envoys, who can stand it?

Seeing Li Dongyang's thoughtful look, Wang Wei couldn't bear the surname, so he gave Lu Wan, the right attendant of the military department, a look.

Yan Zhongyu had just suffered a blow and was almost dismissed, and Lu Wan was also apprehensive, but that established matter could be said to be very important, and there were his own reasons in it, where could he withstand Wang Wei's urging? So I also got out of class hard.

"Your Majesty, Ning Wang Chenhao is playing, now Jiangxi is full of bandits, and the place is restless, so Ning Wang Song asks Your Majesty to ask for the restoration of the guard, in order to assist the place, eliminate the bandits, I don't know what Your Majesty wants?"

As soon as Lu finished saying this, there was silence in the Jinluan Palace, only his deep voice was echoing, except for a few people in the know, everyone gasped in their hearts, the emperor was already looking for fault, mentioning this kind of thing at this time, Lu Quanqing is really bold!

Since the Year of Yongle, even in the border town, there has been a vassal king who has guarded him? What's more, it's still King Ning, a vassal king in the heart of the Ming Dynasty? When today's son is quite strategic, how can he not know the significance of this matter?

Everyone looked at Lu Wan as if they were looking at a dead person.

"Uncle Ning? Restore the guards? Then recover......" Zhengde waved his hand like a nobody, "Uncle Ning's character is still good, when I ascended the throne, he also gave me a gift, although his fireworks are not as good as those of Xuanfu, but they are not bad." ”

"......" was silent.

Is the emperor shrewd or confused? I really don't understand, such a big thing can be promised so easily. Many people are remorseful in their hearts, they knew that it was better to mention it themselves, Ning Wangye was very generous, and the harvest of the person who proposed it must be even richer, right?

"Go ahead." Zhengde beckoned again, signaling to continue the discussion.

Although King Ning's request was achieved, Wang Wei was not happy at all, throwing out such a big gimmick, and still did not test the emperor's purpose.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ His Majesty had previously decreed that all towns and inspectors should investigate and mine according to the previous year's annual practice, but this Zhejiang silver ore vein has been extinct, and His Majesty is requested to withdraw his order to show his gratitude. ”

The matter of opening the mine was issued by Zhengde at the beginning of this year, although the various places have been perfunctory, but with the holy decree, there is still a lot to deal with.

Although Fujian and Sichuan are all in response to orders, the resistance of Zhejiang has always been very high, and until now it is only to answer that the ore veins have been extinct, and there is no half of the silver to be delivered, and the household side is also very headache.

When Wang Yan saw that such a big thing as King Ning's restoration of the guards had passed smoothly, he also thought about it, wanting to see if he could solve this tricky matter together.

"He said that the vein is extinct? But how did I hear that the silver mines in Zhejiang are still being mined? ”

As soon as Zhengde opened his mouth, Wang Yan was already complaining in his heart, not that Zhengde had an investigation that surprised him, but he knew very well that the theme of today's court meeting was to find fault, as long as the emperor's answer was not the word um, then someone would definitely be unlucky.

And he hit the muzzle of the gun if he didn't die, since the emperor has begun to question, then what will happen next is of course self-evident...... "Wang Yan, didn't you eat my kickback?" Sure enough, Zhengde looked at him suspiciously, and the words he asked made Wang Yan cry and laugh.

Although he did receive benefits, it shouldn't be called a kickback, right? It's just a courtesy, how can you be so vulgar, Your Majesty?

"Forget it, don't do it, you waiter......" Zhengde waved his hand again, pointed to the end of the court, and said, "Yan Song." ”

"Wechen is here."

"Wang Yan has been derelict in his duties and has been dismissed by me, so you can go to the household department to be a waiter, don't live up to my expectations."

"Obey."
