Officials have become accustomed to even resigned to their fate, because the emperors of the Ming Dynasty are all strange or bullish.

Born as a beggar, he was a monk, and finally expelled Meng Yuan, unified the rivers and mountains, and the eloquent but ruthless Taizu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang.

Before the throne was secured, he hurriedly roared to cut the throne of his uncles, and then cut his throne to Zhu Yunwen, the Jianwen Emperor.

Pretending to be crazy and stupid to raise troops in Jingjing, and finally fought the Quanming army with a domain of land, and after the successful rebellion, he went on an expedition to Mobei, and the remnants of the Yuan were miserable, leaving the mighty Yongle Emperor Zhu Di in the history books.

is extremely benevolent, but surprisingly short-lived, super foodie, and finally sat on the throne, but only been the son of heaven for ten months Renzong Zhu Gaochi.

Zhu Zhanji, the Emperor Xuanzong who likes to play crickets and is called the Son of Cricket, but it took only ten years to develop the rule of Renxuan to the peak.

favored the eunuchs, listened to slander, drove the expedition in person, and finally became a prisoner of the legendary God of War Emperor Zhu Qizhen.

succeeded in ascending to the throne and banned the abolished emperor, but because of the loss of his son, he was finally disheartened and rescued by the courtiers who wanted to speculate, and Zhu Qiyu, the Jingtai Emperor who succeeded in seizing the door.

likes the old mother, but turns a blind eye to the beauties of the harem, the best emperor Xianzong Zhu Jianshen.

As an emperor, but only the queen is a woman, the super lover emperor Xiaozong Zhu Youjiao.

Absurd, playful, pampered the eunuchs, regarded the Manchu ministers as enemies, and finally escaped from the Forbidden City on the wedding night, abandoning the throne like a shoe, the wonderful emperor Zhengde Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houwei, the Jiajing Emperor who was ambitious and wanted to reform the world's maladministration in a big way, regarded the ancestral system as nothing, and tossed to death as long as he didn't die......

Yang Tinghe felt that he was the most pitiful person in the world, first met his brother who was unreliable and wanted not to ask anything and didn't care about anything......

This is not a man's life......

At the end of January of the first year of Jiajing, the atmosphere of the New Year had just dissipated, and the emperor made a move.

Mixed the three battalions of the Shence Army, split the six battalions to the north to take over the military power of the six towns, as long as it goes well, then with the previous Datong, the emperor has completely controlled the nine sides and the seven sides.

However, the border army is a deep-rooted arrogant general, and even if five or six thousand soldiers and horses sent by each town can take over smoothly, it is estimated that the trouble will not be small, but the Wenchen of the Ming Dynasty has never looked down on the generals, and no matter how much the emperor tosses the generals, the ministers will not take it to heart.

As long as the emperor does not use military force, it is good, because the military will consume endless national strength, and a group of meritorious generals will be cultivated.

But Yang Tinghe still found the Achilles heel of civil officials, that is, they are not united enough, if they meet a weak emperor, then this weakness will not be good, but once they meet a strong emperor, this weakness will be infinitely magnified, thus affecting the root of civil officials.

Whether it is the reform of the military system or the salt political storm, the impact on the civilian community is not as big as imagined, since it is not so big, then the civilian officials will not join forces to resist.

Only commercial tax ...... Now the commercial tax has not been officially implemented, but sooner or later it will be implemented, on the issue of commercial tax, the hundred officials are strongly opposed, but after two conversations between the imperial study and the first auxiliary duty room, the more the senior officials who cherish their feathers, the more they are afraid.

The bigwigs at the front don't charge into battle, counting on those middle-level officials who can't even stand in the court? That's a joke.

This is the weakness of the civil service, a weakness that can never be erased when it is not threatened to live or die.

Yang Tinghe's concerns are not unreasonable, now the emperor has indeed not done anything that threatens the overall interests of civil officials, what can be done?

The emperor didn't do it doesn't mean that he doesn't want to do it, now he dares to risk the world's disapproval to trick the kings into the capital, and then live in a concentrated manner, dare not care about the eyes of the world, sell the palace in a frenzy, dare to rectify the forbidden army and the border army, and the next step is to brake the troops, so what else does he dare not do?

It's just that the throne is not stable, and the confidence is insufficient, the emperor is now crazy about accumulating money, and then using the collected wealth to rectify the army, and so on for a few years, when the millions of troops who have accepted the change in the Ming Dynasty have sworn allegiance to the emperor, they are still not moving?

If the court is subdued by force today, then there will be no power to restrain the chicken, and what resistance will the civil officials who rely on just one mouth resist?

The most important point of Confucianism is to occupy the name of righteousness and ensure the legitimacy of the change of imperial power, that is, as long as the emperor cares about the name behind him and does not want to become a faint monarch and tyrant under the pen of the literati after 10,000 years, then even the emperor must bow to the civil officials.

Its essence lies in the fact that the emperor also has to rely on civil officials to govern the world, no matter how civil officials are, at least they do not have an army in their hands, it is impossible for civil officials to have a disaster in a feudal town, and it is impossible to usurp rebellion, and the emperor will naturally use Confucianism to rest assured.

This is the capital of civil officials and the emperor.

But Emperor Jiajing cares more about the army, and prefers miscellaneous learning, although he does not show disdain for Confucianism, but Yang Tinghe knows that once Emperor Jiajing has the ability to support miscellaneous talents, then he will definitely let the backbone of miscellaneous learning enter the court and fight against Confucianism!

At that time, the emperor had a strong army in his left hand and a reserve talent in his right hand, and if he really wanted to do something to Confucianism, the consequences would inevitably be disastrous.

But worry is worry, Yang Tinghe also knows that his worries are not of much use, because everything has not happened yet, it is impossible to make civil officials vigilant, even if he makes a warning, the effect will not be very good.

"Lord Shoufu, Wang Shangshu asks to see you." The cabinet officials reported outside the duty room, interrupting Yang Tinghe's thoughts.

"Let him in."

Wang Qiong, the secretary of the military department, stepped into the duty room, unceremoniously dragged a chair and sat down opposite Yang Tinghe, with a wisp of anxiety on his face.

"Wang Shangshu, what's wrong?"

"The palace has made an order?"

Yang Tinghe frowned, the emperor's decree needs to be signed by the cabinet, and then it can be taken back from the seal of the celebrant before it can officially take effect and give the decree directly to the Ministry of War? This is the emperor blatantly breaking the rules again.

"What will?"

Wang Qiong said: "It's not a will, today I want the military department to issue an order, ordering all the 26 guards in Beijing to pull out the camp and go to the Shence Army garrison to accept the reorganization!"

Yang Tinghe sighed.

"What do you mean by Shousuke?"

"It's just expected, no need to make a fuss."

Wang Qiong's eyes straightened......

"What are you going to do today!" Wang Qiong was furious: "Change the three battalions of the forbidden army, expand the army by 100,000, and now dismantle the Shence army, let the officials issue a promotion order, and directly let a few unknown young generals go to the nine sides to serve as the chief soldier, and the total army of the original military town has been reduced by half a level, the border town is unstable, and the capital is uneasy!" Now it'......"
