Domestic affairs are complicated, the Tartars in the north, the Japanese in the south, and the endless reforms, where does Zhu Houwei have the energy to take care of the west.

Giving himself a reason to be relieved by his ignorance, Zhu Houwei recovered his spirits, looked at Yang Yiqing, and planned to find a way back.

"Back to Your Majesty, in the eighteenth year of Hongzhi, Baiya attacked the throne of the king of Zhongshun, Baiya this person was mediocre, brutal, and even more suspicious and sick, and often worried that there would be subordinates murdered, so Turpan's Mansuer Khan continued to lobby him, so Baiya betrayed the Ming Dynasty in the first year of Jiajing and surrendered to Turpan.

Then Man Suer sent Ta Jiding to occupy Hami City, Jiajing three years, Yang Tinghe sent Ma Ji to Hami, asking Man Suer to hand over the traitor Baiya and return the Zhongshun Wang Wang Yin, but Man Suer refused, and soon after Yang Shoufu returned to his hometown Ding Wei, no one mentioned this matter again. ”

"That's it?" Zhu Houwei snorted coldly.

"Mansuer Khan used Hami as a springboard to invade outside Jiayu Pass and plunder the counties of Hexi, but he never cut off the tribute, and His Majesty's great politics continued, and the court was overwhelmed, so he didn't pay much attention to the Western Regions.

"It's lost ground!" Zhu Houwei shouted: "The king of Zhongshun has not been founded, although there is a saying of the country of Hami, but no matter what, the king of Zhongshun is the vassal king canonized by the Ming Dynasty, and Hami and even Hexi are also the land of the Ming Dynasty, and now you tell me that Hami is gone, and the king of Zhongshun has surrendered to Turpan!" What a joke! ”

Yang Yiqing had to smile bitterly and said: "This is the dereliction of duty of the minister, please punish Your Majesty."

"Where's Hamiwei?"

"Hamiwei originally only had 3,000 guards, but after more than a hundred years, it has already ......."

"How!"

"The Western Regions are bitterly cold, and Hamiwei is actually in name only......"

"Pretty." Zhu Houwei was completely convinced, the Western Regions had changed so much, the King of Zhongshun was still the Ming Dynasty who rebelled in the first year of Jiajing, and he didn't know anything about it, the minister didn't care about the life and death of the people of the Ming Dynasty outside Jiayu Pass, and he established Tianyan to monitor the two capitals and thirteen provinces, and also ignored the Western Regions.

However, it is also an indisputable fact that the minister neglected his duties, and even Yang Tinghe, the former chief assistant, could not escape the blame, as for himself...... I haven't even seen the seal seal, so it's true.

"Forget it, I don't plan to pursue this matter, what is going on in the Western Regions now, do you Aiqing know."

Yang Yiqing shook his head and said, "The minister is derelict in his duties."

"Find out and report back to me!"

"Obey the order!"

Zhu Houwei's anger dissipated a little and said: "Yang Aiqing also said just now, Turpan has repeatedly invaded and plundered the counties of Hexi, although it is still paying tribute and claiming to be a vassal, but how different are these vassals from the Wa Kingdom!" Big Companion! ”

"The slave is here."

"Send a decree to Zhou Ning, let him reorganize 30,000 recruits of the Tiance Army, and organize three battalions of men and horses to conquer Turpan!"

"Your Majesty, do you need to arrange for officials to oversee the army?"

"Yang Aiqing plans to take charge in person?"

Yang Yiqing smiled bitterly and said: "If Your Majesty thinks that the old minister can use this body, the old minister should bow down and die."

"Yang Aiqing is now the first assistant of the dynasty!" Zhu Houwei snorted and said: "On the occasion of the formation of the parliament, this court can not do without Yang Qing, the whole dynasty is up and down, in my opinion, the civil officials who can lead the army to fight outside are Wang Aiqing except Yang Aiqing......"

"The minister recommended Wang Shouren to supervise the army to conquer Turpan!" Yang Yiqing immediately hit the snake with the stick, as for why the emperor thought that Wang Shouren, who had no experience in leading troops, was suitable for leading troops, this was not a matter he needed to care about, as long as the military power was not controlled in the hands of military generals.

"Yang Aiqing is so keen on civilian officials leading troops, does he think that military generals can't fight well?"

Yang Yiqing was silent, because he knew that there were traps in this question, and once he responded, then the emperor would have a lot of reasons to refute it, and finally ......

"The military generals have military power in their hands, in case they have a heart of disobedience, they are afraid of great changes, so they should be supervised by civilian officials, and if the emperor is not even at ease with civilian officials, then he needs to send eunuchs as supervisors, as for whether the overseers and supervisors understand military affairs, it doesn't matter, if you win, you can get military merits, and if you are defeated, you can also put the responsibility on the generals, such a thing, it is not uncommon in all dynasties, including the Ming Dynasty."

Yang Yiqing continued to remain silent, as if he acquiesced no matter what the emperor said.

Zhu Houwei also lost patience, so he looked at Wang Shouren and said: "Wang Aiqing has been studying for six years, and it is rare to return to the capital, so I should have had a good rest for a while, but I still seem to have to work hard for Wang Aiqing this time."

Wang Shouren immediately got up and said: "I can share the worries of Your Majesty, and the ministers are duty-bound, how dare you say that you are tired."

Zhu Houwei pressed his hand, motioned for Wang Shouren to sit down, and continued: "Wang Aiqing led the troops to the west to Turpan this time, what I want is to be able to return the land of the Western Regions to Wanghua, set up a government and county in the Western Regions, and send officials to put it, this is one of them, and the other is to beat Turpan down, so that it can completely lose the heart of looking eastward, I don't need Turpan to call the Ming Dynasty a tribute, it makes no sense, I want to make them afraid, I am afraid from the bottom of my heart, let Turpan know that invading the Ming Dynasty is tantamount to digging a grave!"

"The minister understands!"

"Since the king of Zhongshun has turned his back on the Ming Dynasty, then the prisoners will be escorted to the capital to be executed to warn the world!"

"I understand."

"The matter of the Western Regions is thus decided." Zhu Houwei suddenly said: "There is also the ...... of Wusizang"

Wu Si Zang, Zhu Houwei didn't make any trouble, so he said directly: "The situation in Wu Si Zang is much more complicated than that in the Western Regions or even the southeast, in fact, I don't have a very good way to solve the problem of Wu Si Zang, this is a place with a deep belief and deep into the hearts of all Tibetans, which is very similar to the belief in God in Western Europe, and even surpasses it.

But Western Europe is a foreign race, and to deal with foreign races, the royal brother can be Huairou or slaughtered, can be divided or assimilated, and there are so many means that I don't know which one to use, but Wu Sizang is different.

After all, Wu Sizang still surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, and I have no reason to raise an unknown teacher to cut it down......"

At this moment, Yang Yiqing and the others remembered for no reason the small southeastern country that was now being invaded......

"I thought about it, how to deal with the Wusizang issue, in general, there must be a big purpose, that is, I do not interfere in the religion of the Wusizang, and I do not care about the beliefs of the Tibetan people, but in Wusizang, we must send liuguan to govern, that is, abolish the right of the living Buddha to appoint local officials, and set up a religious administration office to deal with religious issues.

All officials need to respect the beliefs of the Tibetan people and must not do anything that hurts the religious feelings of the Tibetan people.

In addition, garrisons are also needed, in my opinion, whether or not to truly achieve effective rule over a place is fundamentally whether the garrison army can quickly suppress local rebellions and maintain regional security, so garrisons are indispensable, and the rest do not need to be asked, what do you think? ”

"Your Majesty is wise, and your ministers are convinced......"

"Well, after Yang Aiqing goes back, he will draw up a charter, prepare a proposal, submit it to the council for discussion, and come up with a practical method to determine the matter of Wu Sizang!"

"Obey the Order......"
