Fan Fucui spoke to Zhu Youzhen, the son of the great tomorrow, in public at the small court meeting, pointing out that Li Xinqi's contribution to the victory in western Liaoning and the liberation of Jinzhou was undoubted, which caused an uproar among the courtiers in an instant. This is blatantly contrary to Zhang Sizhi, and in the emperor's will, there is no mention of Li Xin, which has been considered by the officials to be the vane of the emperor's attitude. This person openly proposed that Li Xin had a great merit, wouldn't he want to rebel against the rhythm of the dragon scales?

For a while, although there was chaos in the Wenhua Palace, no one stood up to echo it. Fan Fucui has been prepared for this situation for a long time, if the merit of the good generals can be arbitrarily deprived, Zhang Guan Li Dai, who else will be willing to die for the Ming Dynasty in the future? You must know that it was rumored in Beijing that Li Xin had the will to die, and recommended me to Daming with sincerity and enthusiasm, and everyone who heard it was shocked, gave a thumbs up, and shouted hello!

But what is going on now, but he didn't say a word, such a thing that made the people cold, others didn't dare to come out to accuse, he Fan Fucui must not sit back and watch the court destroy itself.

According to the conjecture of the ministers, the emperor on the throne should be furious when he heard Fan Fucui's advice, first denounce him, and then walk away. Or, Fan Fucui's words collided, and it is unknown that the emperor directly dismissed his officials.

But what is surprising is that Zhu Youzhen, the great son of tomorrow, was noncommittal, and did not express his position at all, so he calmed down and listened to Fan Fucui's impassioned attitude in the Wenhua Palace.

Since the emperor has chosen to remain silent, it is time for the other protagonist of this matter to appear. Sure enough, Zhang Sizhi, a cabinet scholar, shook his trembling beard and coughed, but he didn't come forward, and it was Li Shi, the head of the household, who asked, Li Shiwen has always been aimed at Li Xinqi, which is already an open secret in the court, so is it because Zhang Sizhi wants to muddy the water?

"Who said that Li Xindang has merit? According to the old man, it is better to give this Qiu Ba Argument before discussing the merits. There was no ministry to write it, so he transferred troops north to Liaoxi without authorization. Holding the names of more than 10,000 soldiers of my Ming Dynasty, but rashly placing them in a Jedi, this is the second. If it weren't for General Zu's brave and wise strategy, I'm afraid he would want to use these tens of thousands of corpses and bones to pile up the pieces of paper on the green history! ”

This is enough to say that it is yin damage, what is the word on the piece of paper above the green history, and I am recommended to the Ming Dynasty with enthusiasm, that is, the history of the Qing Dynasty, Fang Ze Baishi, how many literati are envied to death, and they are not poor all their lives for the sake of leaving a few words on the green history? . Li Shiwen made such an accusation, he was scolding Li Xin for spending the lives of tens of thousands of people to buy a name for him in history, how vicious!

However, it seems that it is not unreasonable to understand this from the side, Li Xin obviously chose a path that is most unfavorable to himself and is similar to a Jedi when he can have a choice. This move can get out safely, I really don't know if he has a big fate, or if he has already made up his mind. However, these heart-wrenching words can only turn in the stomach, and all the officials know that as long as these words are said, a caustic reputation will not be able to escape, he Li Shi is not afraid of biting if there are more lice, and he is not worried about more debts, others are very cherished by the feathers of a body, of course they will not echo it, but no one will definitely stand up for Li Xin.

Sure enough, as soon as Li Shi asked this, not only the ministers, but even Fan Fucui, who was bent on mentioning Li Xin's merits, was choked up, and for a while I didn't know whether to defend Li Xin, or should I accuse Li Shi of venting his personal grievances with a public weapon?

"Li Shangshu's words are biased, and it is only a few words to talk about swords and soldiers in the court, but on the battlefield, the sword is eyeless and the soldiers are ruthless, and they may lose their lives in the blink of an eye, or their limbs are mutilated, and how many people dare to invite a thin name with their lives? Regardless of whether Li Xin chose to defend Jinzhou right or wrong, the determination to dare to die alone made Hong embarrassed, and Hong was also in Jinzhou at that time. ”

The hundred officials looked intently, and saw that Hong Chengchou, a new member of the Cabinet University, stood up and talked eloquently, and what he said was actually moving. Indeed, in the name of death, he is also a martyr, and what Li Shiwen said may be biased.

However, Fan Fucui looked at Hong Chengchou a little differently, this person has stood on Zhang Sizhi's side intentionally or unintentionally since he entered the cabinet, but today he dares to fight for Li Xin's reason, which also shows that his heart is still full of blood and righteousness. Moreover, after all, Hong Chengchou and Li Xin fought side by side, and it is admirable to attach so much importance to the friendship of the robe, especially the huge political risk for Li Xin, which makes this friendship of the robe even more precious.

On this point, the officials don't want to argue with Hong Chengchou, a villain who accidentally becomes a grudge, who dares to touch this mold?

Just when everyone thought that Li Shiwen was about to die down, how did they know that this old guy was actually getting braver and braver, he tilted his neck and looked at Hong Chengchou, and continued to accuse Li Xin of his mistakes excitedly.

"You don't add more beaks to the old man of the robe, but it is also true that the troops were transferred out of the province without the order of the department, especially in the current situation, and there is no size of merit, if it is not for Sun Ge Lao and General Zu to relieve the siege, it is likely that the whole army will be wiped out. Since he has no merit to atone for his crimes, he should be punished according to the laws of the court, how can he harm justice because of his personal feelings? ”

Li Shiwen's statement today was really beyond everyone's expectations, and what he said was reasonable and well-founded, which made the hundred officials feel that it was also difficult to refute. Indeed, although what Hong Chengchou said was moving, after all, it was a private friendship in the robe, how could he break the law because of this? As the saying goes, it is reasonable to choose the most, and it seems that the latter should be more biased at the moment.

Although Fan Fucui couldn't tell the mistakes and omissions of what Li Shiwen said, he was still bent on fighting for Li Xin, and first sneered twice before asking:

"Who said that Li Xin has no size, so what evidence do you have? Aren't you afraid that the old man will take revenge on you and attack the hero? ”

Baiguan suddenly felt that what Fan Fucui said seemed to make sense, yes, although Li Shiwen said the Tao, but it was based on Li Xin's immeasurable merits, although the emperor had an ambiguous attitude so far, if he said it in public, it would be a heart-wrenching remark at most. And this sentence of Li Xin's heart came from the mouth of Li Shi's question, that is not to vent personal anger, what else can it be?

Although the officials did not participate in the struggle between them, they still had to fulfill their obligation to watch the excitement. There were already people who accused Li Shi of asking in private, and some people even spoke ugly, which reached the ears of the old man, so angry that Li Shi asked and trembled, pointing at Fan Fucui who couldn't speak for a long time.

Only Zhang Sizhi looked at the heart with his nose and mouth, and seemed to be detached from things, no matter how Li Shiwen mixed up this pool of water, the emperor would not change his previous will lightly, and the credit of the uncle and nephew of the ancestral family would definitely not be able to run away.

But the emperor's words still made Zhang Sizhi's brows jump.

"Li Xin has always been loyal and brave, and he raised troops into Liaoxi, which was also the act of King Qin who besieged Wei to save Zhao, not to mention the credit, this crime must be false."

As soon as these words came out, the officials were immediately confused, even Fan Fucui was confused, the emperor was clearly excusing Li Xin, so it means that Li Xinsheng is still there, but why is there no word from him in the credit book?

Zhang Sizhi is also confused, but he is a little more apprehensive than Fan Fucui in this confusion, it turns out that the emperor is still thinking of Li Xin's feelings, so the next impeachment of his crime and the revocation of his post may be extremely variable.

The emperor's words are equivalent to closing the coffin for Fan Fucui's fight for Li Xin, and the ministers are ready to disperse the dynasty, but at this time, Hong Chengchou actually stood up again.

"Initiate the sacred, the minister has his own music!"

Hong Chengchou's appearance today left an excellent impression on Zhu Youzhen, and he was very patient with this bachelor who had just entered the cabinet, and raised his hand to signal that he had something to say.

"Gao Pingren, the guard of Yongping Mansion, entered Beijing to express his grievances, this matter involves Li Xin, and the ministers dare not be arbitrary, and they also ask the Holy Judge!"

Gao Pingren complained? Involving Li Xin? Fan Fucui's heart trembled suddenly, could this be a fatal blow? The officials also smelled the unusual smell, and they pricked up their ears to listen carefully to what Hong Chengchou would say next.

……

"General, aren't we going back to Shanxi? How do you go all the way north? ”

Lu Jiu was like a long-tongued woman beside Li Xin, Li Xin had long been accustomed to this, he raised his eyes to look at the sky, spread the map on the saddle, and only after confirming it did he turn his head to look at Lu Jiu.

"The mission of the Three Guards is not over yet, so let's take you to play a bigger one!"

Actually, without Li Xin's blunt words, Lu Jiu can guess a lot. After the Three Guards left Jinzhou and crossed Nuruerhu Mountain to the west, they stopped going west and turned northward, all the way into the Liaohe Loop, but the difference of this loop is that it is full of saline-alkali flats, almost no grass, and no people.

To the west is the grazing land of Horqin, and to the east is the hinterland of the Manchu rule across the Liao River. The general's intention to lead the army north from this place is of course self-evident. Lu Jiu's eyes flashed with excitement, like a hungry wolf smelling blood.

"Just waiting for the words of the thirteenth brother, damn, the brothers can be aggrieved in Jinzhou City, and now it also makes the dogs and Tartars often beaten."

Unlike Lu Jiu, who was excited when he heard about the battle, Cheng Mingjiu, an officer of the infantry battalion, said on the contrary, "In the past, our army was invincible and had a geographical advantage, but now it is fighting alone behind enemy lines, and the general is worried about ......."

Li Xin replied undoubtedly: "I'm very worried, although the Tartars are not defeated, their morale has been greatly reduced, and they are fighting for power and profit because of the throne, it is a great opportunity for us to secretly follow and bite back." Besides, I have ordered Bekoer to return west to contact the Mongolian tribal coalition army to march eastward to respond, even if I can't beat it, it's not too late to take a bite and return to Shanxi from the Mongolian steppe! ”

The current situation is still quite favorable to Li Xin, most of the Mongol tribes in southern Mo have been unified by Li Xin, and the Horqin tribes in the east, which are loyal to the Manchu court, have also suffered heavy losses in the previous war, and they are not the opponents of the Three Guards and the Mongol tribal alliance in a short period of time. This provides Li Xin with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
