Chapter 307: Both Lose

Why can a little Liu Jin make Liu Zhong such a heavy minister return to seclusion? Everyone present understood that this was the first battle between the cabinet and the emperor after Zhu Houzhao succeeded to the throne. Although Zhu Houzhao was the emperor, the monarch's power at this time was far less than that of the minister. Together, the cabinet is the prime minister! What eunuchs are not allowed to interfere in politics, foreign kings and internal saints, and non-my race must have different hearts, all of which are fake, and they are all cover-ups to cover up the struggle for power between the monarchs.

Zhu Houzhao left the palace without informing the cabinet at all, which was actually a silent declaration of war. Li Dongyang and the other four pavilion elders exhorted them violently, but in fact, they were forced to face the battle with a decisive victory. The two armies face each other, and the side that makes the least mistakes wins, both on the battlefield and in the political arena. Whether it is Liu Zhong's fierceness, or Ma Wensheng and Li Dongyang's mildness, they are all ways to deal with the enemy, and even Jiao Fang is not completely on Zhu Houzhao's side!

Liu Jin's support is the epitome of Daming's political arena. The emperor was unable to control the government and the opposition, so he had to use eunuchs to help. And Liu Zhong bombarded Liu Jin, and the undisciplined bombardment not only violated Zhu Houzhao's taboo, but also gave Zhu Houzhao an excellent opportunity to defeat the enemy with one move! As smart as Zhu Houzhao, of course, he will not let go of this opportunity, not to mention that Liu Zhong is just one of his teachers, even if Wang Hua is here, he will be killed under the horse! Where is the affection in front of rights?

Ma Wensheng still wanted to struggle again, so he pleaded: "Your Majesty, Lord Liu has always been virtuous, and the old minister heard that Liu Zhong and Lord Liu entered the cabinet in Hami, so he was overjoyed, and congratulated Daming on getting a virtuous minister." Your Majesty, please think again! ”

Zhu Houzhao smiled, that smile was full of fighting passion, full of contempt for death, and full of anger against courtiers like Ma Wensheng. He sighed slightly and changed the subject: "Master Ma, Brother Wei fought another battle in the Wa Kingdom, although he didn't come in person, but he was also fought by the people under his command. There were no casualties in this battle, and there was some improvement compared to Cailiangshan, I really don't know who is the opponent of Brother Wei in the world! ”

Ma Wensheng stagnated for a moment and stopped talking. The two seem to be playing dumb riddles, but in fact, they are no less than the confrontation of real swords and guns. Ma Wensheng had no choice but to sacrifice the army, the implication was that the emperor had no military power, and he relied on the support of his courtiers, so he couldn't hurt the hearts of his courtiers, otherwise the consequences would be unpredictable.

And Zhu Houzhao did not flinch, and directly sacrificed the magic weapon of Huahou Wei, and asked Ma Wensheng, the most powerful foreign enemy is the little prince, and he also hates under my brothers, not to mention others? The battle just now is proof, who is King Wu's opponent in the world? If you don't have the courage to face the Wolf Army, don't be crooked!

Ma Wensheng was promoted from the Ministry of War, and of course he has a deep understanding of the army. Since Huahou Weixi came out of the right jade, a series of wars have not been defeated. There were two battles on the steppe, and the little prince fled; Jiangxi fought a battle, and King Ning was defeated; In the first battle of Lingnan, Burma surrendered, and the White Lotus Sect was blown away; fought the little prince again, forcing the little prince to surrender; In the Battle of Tuen Mun, Portugal lost a lot, and also played an overseas enclave of the Ming Dynasty. Just recently, the blood of the Japanese country under his command was washed, not to mention the gold and silver, and a silver mountain with an annual output of 500,000 yuan was snatched back! Throughout the Ming Dynasty, no one can compare with Huahou Wei, and no army dares to face the invincible Makqin!

The emperor has someone to support him, so what else can he do? Although the old saying is old, it is true, brothers work together to break gold! With the strong support of Huahou Wei, the cabinet finally retreated for the first time after Tumubao! Li Dongyang sighed: "Your Majesty, can you give Lord Liu a dignity?" ”

Zhu Houzhao suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, and faintly agreed: "Well, that's my mentor, so naturally it should be." Master Liu, you are old, so let's take care of your old age! ”

Liu Zhong knew that he was already an outcast of the cabinet and a victim of this confrontation between the two parties, although he was unwilling, he still nodded with tears: "Your Majesty, take care!" The minister is unwell and can't worry about His Majesty! ”

does a full set of dramas, although Zhu Houzhao is still immature, he still understands this truth! So he immediately changed his face, and took Liu Zhong's hand sincerely and regretfully: "Master Liu has worked hard for half his life, and I am in my heart... Alas, it's really Master Liu's body that matters..."

Jiao Fang shook his head in his heart, His Majesty is still tender! Where do you need to return home? Directly hang up a false position, and raise it as a warning, whoever dares not to listen to the hadith, this is an example! However, Your Majesty is hard-hearted, I, Jiao Fang, do not have the affection of Liu Zhong and Your Majesty, so I have to be careful!

Li Dongyang gave his hand again: "Your Majesty, Lord Liu tells the old man, when will Your Majesty return to the palace?" ”

When Zhu Houzhao was full of joy, he was poured down by Li Dongyang with a basin of cold water. Yes, the cabinet took a step back and sacrificed Liu Zhong, so it can't be sacrificed in vain, right? Careless! glanced at Li Dongyang, who was full of desolation, and realized that the worst thing was this inconspicuous old man! King Wu's banner has already been used once, and Liu Zhong is under the horse, so he can't use it again, right?

Ma Wensheng regrouped and went out again: "Your Majesty, the leopard room is far away from the center, and it is inconvenient for so many courtiers to come and go, so it is better to go back to the palace!" Besides, the flowers cultivated here are splendid, Your Majesty's youthful nature, well, the minister thinks it is still convenient in the palace! ”

This angry Zhu Houzhao is not light! Ma Wensheng almost pointed to his nose and said, you can't stay in the leopard room, there is no one to supervise this, what if you become a faint king? Liu Jin immediately followed up: "Master Ma, although the leopard room is not in the big house, it has a different flavor. Long live the Lord, and it is good to raise a period of time here! ”

Zhu Houzhao lamented in his heart, this Liu Jin! There's nothing wrong with loyalty, but what is this lip service? Alas, just fooled it! If I'm willing to go back, why bother with all this effort? He also got rid of my master. It's really more than enough to succeed or fail!

Jiao Fang finally waited for this gap, and immediately said: "What Gonggong Liu said is reasonable, Your Majesty only does it occasionally, why not?" ”

Li Dongyang's eyes lit up, and he looked at Jiao Fang approvingly: "Master Jiao has a heart!" Your Majesty, farewell to the ministers! ”

Liu Jin was so overjoyed that he almost raised his waist to the sky and laughed! Jiao Fang helped, well, he really didn't help the wrong person!

The wood is already in the boat, and it is not a failure. Zhu Houzhao had no choice but to accept this bad result, and said vaguely: "Everyone, walk slowly, after my body recovers, I will return to the Forbidden City!" ”

After several cabinet elders left, Zhu Houzhao's face immediately became gloomy, and he kicked down the triumphant Liu Jin: "Stupid uncle! Someone sold and counted the money for others! ”

Liu Jin was shocked, and he didn't understand what Zhu Houzhao meant: "Long live the lord, is Liu Jin wrong?" ”

Zhu Houzhao didn't bother to talk to him, he just said to himself: "Is this move intentional or unintentional?" This Jiao Fang, I can't understand it! ”
