Chapter 119: The Prince's Counterattack (3)
"Well, it's important to be cautious, but what about caution?"
The old man is a shrewd master, and he has long been aware of the flag affairs, and he has also planned to start the layout last year, in order to be able to make contributions in one fell swoop, but in the old man's opinion, it is not yet the time to launch - he originally planned to wait for all the elder brothers to be in charge of the department, and then choose a capable person to take charge of this matter, in the name of all his meritocracy, for this reason, the old man has secretly begun to raise money and food, in case of emergency, this calculation is undoubtedly good, but I didn't expect to be the fourth master and the prince sideways, and now, the problem has been laid out, Even if the old man is a strong emperor, it is not easy to ignore it, so I hope that the third master can say a way, and the old man can borrow the slope to get off the donkey, obviously, the third master's previous warm response is not very suitable for the old man's appetite, but it can't be said that the third master answered wrong, after the old man groaned for a while, he still patiently asked a question.
"Back to the emperor's words, the sons think that the flag affairs are miscellaneous, and the disadvantages have been accumulated for a long time, and it is indeed a move to rectify the line, however, it is a matter of the country, but it can not be fed with fierce medicine, and it must be prevented from changing.
With Li Minquan's reminder yesterday, the third master naturally knew what the answer the old man wanted, and he just wanted to postpone the matter, and the third master was happy to give the old man such a step.
"Emperor Ama Mingjian, the ministers think that what the third brother said is very true, this matter is important, and it must not be moved lightly, and it is necessary to take precautions."
At this point, the eighth master could be regarded as understanding, how could he really let the prince succeed, and he didn't care to hint at the younger brothers, so he jumped out in person and echoed loudly.
"Huang Ama, the third brother is right, this matter must not be rushed, in case there is a change, the son is willing to ask the emperor Ama to investigate."
The fourteenth also saw the prince's insidious intentions, and he didn't want to be sent by the prince and the fourth master, so he also snatched it out and supported the third master.
"Huang Ama, the retainers think that this matter can only be slowly figured out, and it must not be neglected!"
"Emperor Ama Mingjian, Erchen thinks that the third brother is very right, and the major affairs of this country must not be careless!"
……
Seeing that the eighth master and the fourteenth master have all stood up, although the ninth and eleventh masters do not know much about the situation, they can stand up and support the eighth master but they are still unswerving, so that the adult elder brother has nearly half of the disagreement with the urgent handling of the flag affairs, but the prince is angry, but the more angry he is, the more chaotic his heart becomes, and he really can't find a suitable reason to refute for a while, so he has to turn his eyes on the fourth master for help.
"Huang Ama, the retainers think that severe illness should be treated with fierce medicine, otherwise it is not enough to correct the disadvantages of entanglement, but if we and other children of the heavenly family can be self-disciplined, why worry about the banner and not be able to cure it!"
The reason why the fourth master is strong for the prince is that he has his own calculations, even if he knows that the old man doesn't want to rectify the flag affairs immediately, he can't care about it so much, and he doesn't need the prince to hint at all, the fourth master is already with a blue face, and he said in a loud voice.
"Huang Ama, what the fourth brother said is very true, the reason why the flag affairs are rotten today is because there is something wrong, and the next will follow, if we and other children of the heavenly family are clean and self-conscious, how dare the minions under them dare to act recklessly, therefore, the sons think that the rectification of the flag affairs is imperative, and the rectification from top to bottom can definitely achieve great good results."
The old thirteen has always followed the fourth master closely, and now seeing that the third master and the eighth master are too powerful, they dare not fall behind, so they hurriedly spoke out and supported the fourth master.
"Huang Ama, the sons of the son think that the fourth brother, the thirteenth brother said that the great good, the so-called righteous people must first correct themselves, if the children of my heavenly family are not exemplary, how can they ask the slaves under the head to act according to the law, today, my children of the heavenly family have businessmen, lazy people, completely regard the ancestral family law as nothing, the reason why the sixteenth brother dares to leave Gyeonggi without permission, forced to buy and sell, all from this, if not strict ancestral family law, how to tame the eight banners, therefore, the sons think that it should be dealt with, in order to set an example!"
With the support of the fourth master and the thirteenth master, the prince came to the spirit, bowed down, and talked impassionedly, the implication is to take the old sixteen as a method, thinking that it is the beginning of the rectification of the flag business.
Gotcha, no way, this head looks like we can't get out!
As soon as the prince moved out the matter of the old sixteenth, the eighth master and others were not very easy to speak, firstly, because the old sixteenth was really wrong, and he was caught by the prince, and he couldn't argue, and besides, the eighth master and the old sixteen had no friendship at all, and they were unwilling to fight for the old sixteen at this time, as for the third master, although he had the intention to ease his cheeks for the old sixteen, but he couldn't find a good reason for a while, and in desperation, he could only keep silent. Slowly walked out from the side, bowed to the old man, and said in a calm tone: "Huang Marfa is above, and my grandson has something to say." ”
"Well, speak!"
Since he had the power to listen to the government, Hongqing has always only brought ears and no mouth, but whenever the old man didn't ask, he never said anything, at this time, such a station is about to come out, not only a group of brothers are surprised, but the old man is also stunned, after a long silence, he raised his hand and agreed to Hongqing's request.
"Huang Ma Fa Mingjian, my grandson listened to the fourth uncle's generous speech before, and his blood was boiling, but when I thought about it carefully, I felt extremely dazed, and I really didn't know what it was."
As soon as he got the old man's permission, Hongqing was no longer polite, and with a mouth, he already ridiculed the fourth master mercilessly.
"Huh? What do you mean by that? ”
The old man was stunned because he didn't expect Hongqing not to sing, under this sound, he actually went to the fourth master so straightforwardly, stunned, his brows couldn't help frowning, and the tone of the question was also quite displeased. The fourth master is Hongqing's elder no matter what, and he still needs to be respected as he deserves, and sneering in court like this obviously loses the dignity that the heavenly family should have.
"Hui Huang Mafa's words, it's not that the grandson is talking nonsense, it's actually that what the fourth uncle said is not in line with reason, and it's wrong, where does the disadvantage of the Eight Banners come from? Is the superior not right? Categorically not! The children of the clan may have disdain, however, it is rare, from the perspective of the grandson, all the uncles are dignified and heroic, how can they be unright, but the disorder of the flag is still the same, why not? Because of the mistake of raising and not teaching, the ancients said: the flowing water is not rotten, the hub is not beetle, the sincerity has not seen the stagnant water and can not be corrupted, now the number of soldiers in the Eight Banners is limited, and the population breeds, Yu Ding Elk gathers in Beijing, nothing to do, even if there is a law, it is difficult to blame the public, for a while, it is strictly governed, but the symptoms of the ear will be disordered for a long time, and the rice grain is wasted, but it is useless, is it not ridiculous? ”
For the rectification of the flag affairs, Hongqing has already deduced many times with Old Master Chen, and has a clear enough understanding of the drawbacks.
"Well...... what if in your opinion, this flag should be cleaned up like this to ensure that it is safe?"
The old man is the lord of the Holy Ming, since he can hear what Hongqing said is much deeper than what the fourth master said, it can be said that he pointed out the root of the erosion of the Eight Banners, this one, although the old man has already noticed it in his heart, it is only in the ancestral system, but it is not a very good solution, at this time I heard Hongqing say so sharply, my heart was awe-inspiring, and my curiosity was also great, and I didn't blame Hongqing for a slight faux pas, and after a moment of silence, I continued to ask with a twinkle in my eyes.
"Back to Huang Mafa's words, my grandson just heard Ama talk about it, but he only knew it, but he didn't know why, and he didn't dare to say anything."
It's okay to be in the limelight, but if it's too much, then it's going to be bad, Hongqing doesn't want to rob his father's demeanor, so with a light sentence, he handed over the right to speak to the third master.
"Oh? Yinzhi, you say. ”
Hearing Hongqing say this, the old man's eyes immediately flashed a trace of suspicion, not for anything else, just because the old man has a deep understanding of the third master, if the third master article is endowed with words, the old man is convinced, but when it comes to government affairs, the old man is actually not very trusted, even if the third master has always behaved commendably in the affairs of the Ministry of Rites, and has made several great achievements one after another, but in the old man's opinion, the pattern of the third master is a little smaller, and there is less indomitable spirit, but doubts are doubts, and the flag affairs are big, It's time to ask for an understanding, and the old man didn't hesitate to ask.
"Back to Huang Ama's words, the sons are just a little shallow, and I don't know whether it's right or not, and ask Huang Ama to correct it."
To be able to show bright spots in such important matters, the third master is very happy, you must know that yesterday he discussed with Li Minquan until midnight, in order to make achievements in today's court meeting, at this time I heard the old man ask, the third master was very excited in his heart, fortunately in the city is deep, but it has never been brought to the face, after a few words of humility, only then his face was correct, and he slowly spoke: "The disadvantages of the flag are raised but not taught, and if you want to cure it, it is not a day's work, you must slowly advance, first to train to clarify the rules, and then set rewards and punishments, After the rules are detailed, when the open source is the mainstay, supplemented by throttling, there must be four: first, the number of soldiers can be slightly increased, the best ones are selected, the performance evaluation must be strict, and the superior and inferior are the fittest, so as to ensure the combat effectiveness of the Eight Banners Battalion; Second, those who have reached the age of thirty-five and have not been sent to the messenger should be allowed to earn their own livelihood and be given the expenses to settle down. Third, move the surplus Ding outside Beijing, implement the policy of reclamation, give him cattle and grain seeds, make him self-reclaimed, exempt him from taxes for several years, and make him self-sufficient; Fourth, set up more training mechanisms to teach Yu Ding the skills to make a living, and those who do not want to settle for land can learn their crafts to make a living. ”
