Chapter 290: The Beginning of the Great Reversal

Zhu Houxi's will soon came down: chasing thieves from the Hetao, is the teacher famous? Do you have more than enough to eat? Is success a must? It is not a pity to mill the original, if the soldiers are in trouble and the lives are ruined, who is responsible?

Although the people in the court were a little surprised when they heard this will, they also felt that it was reasonable. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 infoBecause these days there have been courtiers impeaching the repetition, he spoke generously about all the disadvantages of the repetition, and said that the fires were caused by the repetition, and the signs in the meantime were extremely detailed.

Most people understood that these courtiers were all instructed by Yan Song, but Zhu Houxi couldn't see this, to be precise, he didn't want to see this. He was already inclined to stop the idea of recovering the loop, so he needed the support of all the courtiers, because he was too resolute in his original move to regain the loop.

Most people will change their minds after hearing the strong opposition of a large group of courtiers, not to mention Zhu Houxi, who has already wavered in his heart, so the balance in his heart is now tilting more and more in the direction of Yan Song.

Of course, this is what Zhu Houyu thinks in his heart, and the minister thinks much more than Zhu Houyi, and the most important information they need is that Zhu Houyu began to alienate Xia Yan, more precisely, Xia Yan began to lose power, and Yan Song began to gain power.

Many of the ministers who vacillated between the two forces naturally put their bets on it, and tried their best to oppose the repetition, because they understood that Zhu Houxi's opinion was the most important thing.

Faced with this situation, Xia Yan naturally knew in his heart that he could not act rashly, so he did not directly object to Zhu Houxi's will above the court. He saw what the ministers were doing, and besides, he had already suffered losses before, so he would not easily do anything that angered Zhu Houxi.

But he couldn't let Zhu Houyu interrupt the resumption, so he was ready to put forward his own suggestions to Zhu Houyu in private. Because he knew that the matter of recovering must not be abandoned halfway, and Peng Yue kept sending news from the northwest that the re-entrapment war was extremely smooth, and success was just around the corner.

As for Zhu Houxi's belief that the fire was caused by a complex set, it is even more nonsense, Xia Yan knew in his heart that it was Yan Song's ghost, but he couldn't directly oppose and question Zhu Houxi's theory of ghosts and gods, who made him believe in this?

However, it was said that on this day, Zhu Houxi convened a cabinet meeting to prepare for the final discussion of the resumption. Xia Yan was naturally ready to take this opportunity to persuade Zhu Houxi to dispel the idea of interrupting the reset, and Yan Song was also ready to seize this opportunity to deal a fatal blow to Xia Yan, because he already understood that as long as Zeng was put to death, Xia Yan could be pulled into the water.

"What do the two Aiqing think about the repetition?" , Zhu Houxi crossed his hands behind his back, his face was calm, and he looked not angry and arrogant, "It's okay to be blunt, you don't have to be taboo about anything, I just want to hear the advice of the two Aiqing." After that, he actually showed a shallow smile to Xia Yan and Yan Song.

When Xia Yan saw this scene, he couldn't help but get excited in his heart, maybe today was a good time to persuade Zhu Houxi, and he secretly decided in his heart that he must carry out the complex thing.

"Your Majesty, the minister believes that the matter of repetition must not be abandoned halfway." , Xia Yan seemed to deliberately raise his voice in order to increase his confidence.

Next, Xia Yan has been describing how necessary the re-set of things is, how the re-set of battles is smooth, and how full of re-set combat preparations, but Zhu Houxi's facial expression has not changed at all. Although Xia Yan was faintly worried in his heart, the words had already been said and could not be taken back, so Xia Yan simply continued.

Xia Yan was still talking, but Zhu Houxi slowly sat back in his seat, dusting off the corners of his somewhat wrinkled clothes, looking careless.

Xia Yan couldn't help frowning when he looked at all this, and his speed of speech slowed down. Zhu Houxi's obsession and belief in ghosts and gods originally made Xia Yan angry, but now he has a dry mouth, but Zhu Houxi has such an attitude, how can Xia Yan not be angry in his heart.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the matter of repetition must not be done again!" , Yan Song saw that Xia Yan stopped talking, there was still some anger in his eyes, and he immediately said his opinion loudly.

Xia Yan looked back at Yan Song, who was a little proud, and the corners of his mouth twitched a little, but in front of Zhu Houxi, he was helpless, he just glanced at Yan Song, and then stood there and hung his head silently.

"Your Majesty, the recovering move is very difficult, not to mention the cost, just talking about the number of sacrifices of the border soldiers is also heart-wrenching...", Yan Song chattered endlessly about the difficulties of recovering the Hetao, although he didn't really care about the life and death of the border soldiers, but when the words came out of his mouth, he brought a sense of sadness, and Yan Song, who has always been good at performing, made Zhu Houxi also can't help but feel a little sad.

And Yan Song learned from the chamberlain that Zhu Houyu had been worried about military spending recently, so he seized this point and exaggerated it, making Zhu Houxi's mood fluctuate unconsciously.

Xia Yan couldn't help but be furious when he listened to Yan Song's narration, and wanted to refute it several times, but was stopped by Zhu Houxi's stern eyes.

"Your Majesty, recovering the Hetao, even if it is victorious, is just a desolate land on the border, and we have to spend countless money, food and soldiers' lives for this...", Yan Song knew that Zhu Houxi did not care about how much benefit there was in recovering the Hetao, so he said it boldly with confidence, "But if the recovering fails, we will not only sacrifice so much in vain, but also grow the ambition of the Beiyu, causing the retaliation of the Beilu, I am afraid that the border chaos and war will continue in the future..."

Yan Song's pros and cons of the gains and losses went down to Zhu Houxi's heart every sentence. Indeed, he doesn't care how much imperial government he can have now, he just wants to live a peaceful life for a few days. If the repetition is unfavorable and will lead to endless side troubles, he would rather give up the repetition.

Xia Yan, who had been listening quietly on the side, couldn't hold back any longer, only to see his eyes widen angrily, slap the table hard, and point at Yan Song and shout: "Nonsense!" Woman's view! Do you understand military affairs! ”

Xia Yan began to talk loudly about the benefits of recovering the Hetao, but he didn't understand that Zhu Houxi was already tired of listening to these clichés, and his rambling would only increase the disgust in Zhu Houxi's heart. In terms of figuring out Zhu Houxi's thoughts, Xia Yan is indeed a little immature compared to Yan Song.

"Lord Xia, is it possible that there must be so many benefits in recovering the Hetao?" , Yan Song sneered, and began to talk endlessly about his set of words that had been prepared for a long time, "In the early days of the founding of our dynasty, the Mongol Tatar tribe successively settled in the Hetao, from less to more, and finally occupied it. Our dynasty has used troops many times to carry out "suppression", "searching", and "re-setting", which lasted for nearly 100 years, but in the end, the Hetao area is still firmly in the hands of the northern captives. During the Chenghua period, after the battle of Red Salt Pond, our dynasty drove the northern captives out of the Hetao. But after a dozen years, they made a comeback, and during the Hongzhi period, the Hetao area was once again firmly under their control. During this period, there were countless wars, large and small, and our DPRK did not gain anything in the process, except for wasting money and food. ”

"If the recovery of the Hetao can bring peace, then let me ask Lord Xia, why did our dynasty occupy the Hetao, but what followed by endless military disasters? Now that the northern captives have stopped, is Lord Xia insisting on continuing this military disaster to the emperor's Qingming and prosperous era? (To be continued.) )
