Chapter 755: Counterattack
"Yang Shoufu's words are conclusive, in my opinion, they are just empty words." Song Nan said lightly.
Yang Tinghe turned his head to look at Song Nan and said, "Zhenguo Gong, what this official said does not negate your merits, you don't have to misunderstand, you don't have to rush out to speak." β
Song Nan pointed to his nose and said, "Am I in a hurry?" I think Yang Shoufu is in a hurry, I am the party involved in everything before and after, you don't listen to my report on this matter first, so you hurriedly conclude that you Yang Shoufu has a stalk in his heart. β
The ministers were very excited, one by one stretched their necks and stared at the play, originally today's early dynasty was a happy and harmonious early dynasty, in everyone's thoughts, there will be no quarrels and fights today, but now it seems that this idea is very wrong. At present, there is a strong smell of gunpowder in the tongues of Song Nan, the newly promoted prince of the town, and Yang Tinghe, the first assistant of the cabinet, and it seems that the show is about to begin.
Yang Tinghe smiled and said, "This official has a stalk in his heart? Zhen Guogong's words are very speechless, I, Yang Tinghe, and no one are embarrassed, I have never been right about things and people, isn't what I said wrong? It is a heavy decision made by the imperial court, and you alone are in charge of the front, and if the official says that you are wrongdoing, I am afraid it is not an exaggeration. β
The ministers gasped, Song Nan did have a problem with this matter, but it coincided with the decision of the imperial court, when the defeat of the Tatar soldiers and horses was celebrated by the whole country, no one wanted to mention this matter, and did not want to be this troublemaker, but Yang Shoufu said it, and many officials immediately echoed. With the sheep in the lead, the sheep in the back are naturally not afraid of anything.
"What Yang Shoufu said is that he made a peace treaty with the Tatars with his words, if the imperial court means to fight to the death with the Tatars, then wouldn't he be a big deal?"
"That is, this matter is a national policy, no matter what, you have to ask the court to decide first, even if he defeats the Tartar soldiers and horses, he can't make a decision for the court on his behalf. At the smallest, this is called overstepping, and at the largest, this is the ...... It's ......"
"Shh......h Don't say it, and listen to how he argues, haven't you seen the emperor's face change? Let's mix less, so as not to end badly. β
The ministers buzzed and whispered in their ears, Song Nan's heart hit with anger, and finally exploded, stretched out his foot and kicked the underground futon into the air, the broken futon shattered, and the soft grass stuffed in it fell one after another, and the steps of Zhengde were in a mess.
"Song Nan, what are you going to do? This is before the emperor drove, you are roaring at the court, a great crime of disrespect. Yang Tinghe was startled, but quickly calmed down and shouted in a low voice.
Song Nan's face was pale, and he shouted angrily: "Don't wear a big hat for me, my anger is not aimed at the emperor, I know that this is the emperor in front of the throne above the court, if it weren't for that, my kick would not be this futon, but your ass." β
"Bold."
"Rude."
"Grandpa Guo is self-respecting."
The people in the cabinet and the outer court opened their mouths to condemn, and Zhengde also frowned, although he was emotionally biased towards Song Nan, he also thought that Song Nan's actions and words were too much, and he had the intention of despising the court and despising himself.
"Did the emperor see it? The Duke of Zhenguo is too disrespectful, how can this be the behavior of the important ministers of the court, and how can there be half a point of majesty in this square inch of the court? The ministers asked the emperor to punish his behavior, and he should be rewarded for his merits, and he must be punished for his mistakes, so that the rewards and punishments can be clear and the anger of everyone can be appeased. β
Zhengde frowned and looked at Song Nan and said, "Song Nan, what are you doing?" It's too unseemly. β
Song Nan said loudly: "If the emperor wants to punish but rely on the holy ruling, even if he takes away my position as the prince of the country, the minister will not complain, but the minister must make his words clear today, and the minister will not be slandered by others." β
Yang Tinghe sneered: "Isn't what we said the truth? You made peace with the Tatars before the decree of the Imperial Court was issued, did you consult the Imperial Court? Even if it coincides with the discussion of the imperial court, the imperial court means to take this opportunity to make the Tatars bow down, but you let this opportunity go in vain, don't you? β
Song Nan laughed, crazy and cute, and the corners of his eyes were faintly smiling.
Yang Tinghe didn't move, and said quietly: "I want to ask what this official said is funny." β
Song Nan's laughter stopped, and he took a sip and said, "Yang Shoufu simply changed his surname to Zhao." β
Yang Tinghe's face turned blue and said, "Why? β
"Because in that case, I can change Yang Shoufu's name to Zhao Kuo, no...... You can talk more on paper than him, and what you say is some nonsense covered by clouds and mountains. β
"To put it bluntly, how is what I said on paper?"
"Yang Shoufu, when you went to my mansion and asked me to lead the troops to the battle, it was not what it is now; Since Yang Shoufu is so strategic, why didn't he take the initiative to invite Ying to lead the troops to fight in the first place? β
"Joke, if I were to lead troops to fight, what would I want you military attachΓ©s to do? The duty of the minister is to assist the emperor in sorting out government affairs and formulating national strategies, not to lead troops to fight. β
"Well said. How do you know what this battle will bring, and how can you conclude that the Tatars will bow down to it, if you admit that you are not well versed in the things of war? In the more than 100 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, you can go through the books to find out, has there ever been a precedent for the Tatars to submit? β
Yang Tinghe said proudly: "Because there is no precedent, if this dynasty can do such a pioneering feat, it is a move that capable people cannot brilliant." β
Song Nan nodded and smiled: "It turns out that I want to leave a name in history, and there are many ways to leave a name in history, for example, if you take off your clothes and run around naked in this hall now, keeping this matter will be remembered for eternity, and the history books will record that on a certain year, month, and day, Yang Tinghe, the first assistant of the cabinet of a certain dynasty, ran naked in the palace, isn't it easy and convenient?" Why do you have to go so far? β
The ministers let out a loud snicker, and the marquis laughed unscrupulously, even Zhengde felt that Song Nan's mention was very interesting, and sat on the dragon seat to cover his mouth gourd.
Yang Tinghe's eyes swept over the hall, and suddenly there was a disguised dry cough, and the ministers tried their best to hold back their laughter, coughing to adjust the rippling muscles on their faces.
"This official reminds you again, you are an important minister of the Ming Dynasty, and you are the prince of the town, but you are not the person who slaughtered dogs and pigs in the market, and it is not someone else's face that you are losing when you open your mouth, but your own people." Yang Tinghe said quietly.
Song Nan said: "If you want to open the river, don't you allow me to open the river?" You said that the imperial court was determined to submit the Tatar State to my Ming Dynasty this time, dare to ask, is this the meaning proposed by the emperor, or the meaning of your Yang Tinghe? β
Yang Tinghe said: "This is the result of the court meeting. β
Song Nan said: "Don't be sloppy, in my opinion, it's your Yang Tinghe's wishful thinking." β
Yang Tinghe said angrily: "So what? Isn't this an opportunity? β
Song Nan sneered again, and his cold voice echoed in the hall: "Yang Shoufu should go and experience these battles firsthand, especially the battle on the Great Wall of Yanchi, do you know how many Ming boys' blood has been spilled on the Great Wall?" Do you know how ferocious the Tartar attack is? Up and down the Great Wall, the bones of my Ming boy are piled up, the blood flowing out of the instep is flooded, and the pile of corpses burned after the war is higher than the hill, you go to see the scene, you come to speak again. β
Everyone was terrified when they heard it, Song Nan's voice was low, and the back of the ministers in the palace was cold.
Yang Tinghe said: "I said, this official is not a war, these Ming men are all dying for the Ming Dynasty, the glory of death, the place where they die, the court will be merciful to them." They are soldiers of the Ming Dynasty and should be loyal to the emperor. Not to mention them, it is not surprising that you and I died on the battlefield. β
Song Nan sneered: "It's so domineering and crowned, but it doesn't hurt to stand and talk." Of course, they were loyal to the emperor, sacrificed their lives for the Ming Dynasty, and died well. But do you know why they gave their lives? That's because of the ferocity and cunning of the Tartars. I calculated the route of the Tartars' march and pursued and encircled all the way, and when the Tartars only had more than 10,000 soldiers and horses left, their choice was not to surrender, but to notify the soldiers and horses in the territory to break through the siege with the intention of breaking through the pass of the Great Wall. That's why the battle on the Great Wall took place. β
Song Nan lowered his head and pondered for a long time, and continued: "Your Majesty, my lords, the Tartars are far from being as exhausted as we thought, and they have a fighting spirit that is not inferior to my Ming Dynasty. A dog may be domesticated, but a wolf should never be domesticated, because of its wolf nature, they will always show their fangs and bite us when we are not prepared. If I hadn't personally experienced the battle to the death with the Tartars, I would probably have agreed with the beautiful vision you depicted to force the Tartars to submit to our dynasty. But after experiencing this qiΔ, I can only say that this qiΔ is all wishful thinking, the Tartars will not surrender, they are wolves, they are born to bite. β
Song Nan's voice was clear and bright, echoing in the hall, and every word was clearly sent to the ears of more than 100 Zhengde monarchs and ministers, and the ministers were silent, frowning and pondering.
