The reason why it is mentioned that "a glass of wine releases military power" has two purposes. First, he hopes that Zhu Yijun can understand that some betrayals are not necessarily the voluntary betrayal of the betrayer from the heart, and "forced to do so" is also one of the many reasons for betrayal. Second, assuming that he could not change Feng Bao's ending, he hoped to use this allusion of Song Taizu to have some influence on Zhu Yijun in advance - the change of political forces, and in some cases, the use of some gentle means can better attract people's hearts.

If Zhu Yijun had not used the merits of the complete overthrow of Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao to establish his authority, he believed that the history of the Ming Dynasty would have gone in a different direction. The power of the official will not expand indefinitely, and the power of the official cannot be effectively restrained, if not the direct cause of the neglect of government in the late Wanli period, at least it is one of the important inducements.

As an example of morality in the world, the emperor did not go to court, which caused serious damage to the credibility of the imperial court. The subjects lack faith, and there is no other faith to replace, under the heavy oppression of natural disasters, it is natural to seek a breakthrough in the outbreak, rise up, re-establish a faith, and naturally gather followers.

Chen Mo had vaguely thought of these things before, until he came to Daming, after these days of in-depth understanding, this view, or summary, can be regarded as roughly having a prototype - when a nation pursues corruption and extravagance, it will also be the time when the nation is brewing great changes. Faith is the soul of a nation and a country. Of course, the current Zhu Yijun is still the Son of Heaven in the minds of the subjects of the world, but, as Huang Renyu wrote, many things have already loomed, and if he does not change his mind, the decay will never be reversed.

Zhu Yijun is naturally a smart person, there is no doubt about it. But a smart person doesn't necessarily make a successful person.

Through getting along with Zhu Yijun these days, combined with historical records and evaluations, Chen Mo found that this person was born with some flaws in his character: smart, but not wise; soft-hearted, but not merciful. He could not do what his grandfather Jiajing did, using an iron fist to establish his authority. I can't do it like Hyojong, who completely trusts his ministers. To put it nicely, he is ambitious, but to put it mildly, he makes the whole bottle less than half a bottle shake.

In the past, because Chen Mo didn't think that he could approach Emperor Wanli so quickly, so he pinned his hope of changing history on changing Feng Bao's ending, and today coincided with his meeting, he suddenly found that he was a little blind, if he could fundamentally affect Zhu Yijun, wouldn't it be more direct than changing Feng Bao's ending?

This is the most important reason why he took a huge risk to say those words to Zhu Yijun.

Zhu Yijun's question told Chen Mo that the other party really understood the purpose of his previous tirade, which made him secretly relieved at the same time, and his heart hung up again-why are you so hesitant? Lao Tzu shouldn't be too behaving and shocking you, right?

With such worries, Chen Mo answered the question, and became extremely cautious: "Long live Lord Yingming, in fact, the slave didn't think so much, but I just think that Old Ancestor, Gonggong Feng seems to be a little frightened by Long Live Lord You, otherwise, according to his temper, he can't please His Royal Highness King Lu...... The ministers didn't mean to be disrespectful to His Royal Highness King Lu, but he just ......" He couldn't explain it for a while, so he simply skipped this question and said instead:

"But Long live Lord Fangcai's words have reminded the minions, since you also feel that you are too eager, why not slow down? You said that Gonggong Feng has changed, then take a closer look, whether these changes of his are beneficial to the court or harmful to the court, and when you have the answer, you can deal with it, and you will naturally get twice the result with half the effort. ”

Zhu Yijun suddenly got up and got off the kang, paced back and forth on the ground for a few steps, let out a long breath, and then sat back on the kang, looked at Chen Mo and said, "There is some truth in what you said, some things, I really should carefully distinguish them before making plans...... You have an arm injury, and you know that you have come to see me, and I am very happy. Stand down, and be raised. ”

is really a companion like a tiger, and the good and dignified Zhu Yijun suddenly gave an eviction order, which made Chen Mo very puzzled, but he couldn't ask clearly, so he could only kowtow and retire anxiously.

Looking at Chen Mo's back out of the warm pavilion, Zhu Yijun finally retracted his gaze, his thick eyebrows furrowed, twisted into a big pimple: Chen Mo, Chen Mo, what are you thinking? Why can't I see through you anymore?

His heart became more and more irritable, and he picked up a book of music from the kang table, and found that he couldn't read it at all, so he simply threw it away angrily and shouted: "Come on, prepare for it, and drive Yanqi Palace!" ”

Chen Mo came out of the Qianqing Palace, and as soon as he got off the Dan Majesty, he saw Zhang Dashou standing in the "Tiger Cave", walked a few steps forward, bowed down and asked: "It's a cold day, Grandpa Zhang is not resting inside, why are you standing here?" It won't be waiting for juniors, right? ”

Zhang Dashou rubbed his hands and smiled: "Gonggong Chen is smart, no wonder the old ancestor is ...... The ancestor has something to do when he returns to the house, so let you go to the house to find him after you come out, and discuss important matters. ”

Events?

Chen Mo couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, bowed down to thank him, and hurriedly walked out, pondering all the way, what Feng Bao said should be a showdown with himself, right? Is his weight in his heart really so heavy? If he really revealed his plan to himself and to himself, how would he choose?

Thoughts are mixed, time flies, unconsciously, Chen Mo raised his eyes to see, he had actually arrived at Donghua Gate, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, and secretly laughed at himself, Lao Tzu is still too tender, but a "important matter" is out of proportion.

Looking at the sun, it was almost noon, Chen Mo thought that it was not too early anyway, it was better to go and say hello to Liu You and then go out of the city. I didn't want to think about it, so I heard someone call my name, and hurriedly followed the direction of the voice, and saw that outside the city gate, a person wearing a red robe looked at him with a solemn expression, and it turned out to be Mr. Shen Li from the Inner Study Hall.

He's not in the Inner Study Hall, why is he here?

With this question in mind, Chen Mo temporarily put aside the idea of going to Liu You, and quickened his pace to chase after him.

"Student Chen Mo, I've seen Mr. Shen, ...... are you?" Seeing that Shen Li was about to leave the city, Chen Mo asked as he saluted.

Shen Li's expression was the same as always, and it did not change just because Chen Mo put on the python robe, and he lightly helped Chen Mo: "Yin Gong doesn't need to be polite...... This official had just come out of Wenyuan Pavilion and was about to return to the inner study hall. ”

"Mr. Shen, don't call the student 'Yin Gong', it's better to call us 'Shaoyan'," Chen Mo said politely, and then asked: "Isn't Wenyuan Pavilion the place where the cabinet offices, sir......?" ”

At this moment, the two of them had already walked out of Donghua Gate, Shen Li was silent for a while, and suddenly spoke: "It doesn't hurt to tell you, Feng Bao has repeatedly corrected his cronies and officials to impeach Shoufu, it is too rampant, and the official is not used to him, and he said that Zhang Shen and the two auxiliary ministers can no longer be licorice, so as not to chill the ministers." ”

PS: These chapters are coded, an average of three hours per chapter, and it takes a lot of brains, I guess everyone doesn't necessarily like to read it, it's really a bit of a headache, but things have to move forward step by step, and it's really a code to the highest court, and everyone is definitely more unwilling. It's a dilemma, so let's recommend more collections and encourage us!
