Chapter 249: Joint Counterinsurgency
"Nice, nice......"
Just when Ma Qi was worried, Zhu Zhanyan's painting style suddenly changed, the smile on his face did not change, but he inexplicably seemed a lot warmer, and the coldness in his tone disappeared.
"Since it was the imperial grandfather who issued the edict, let's do it according to the imperial grandfather's arrangement."
"Zhan Qi." As he spoke, Zhu Zhanyan pulled his younger brother out.
"I've almost explained everything I should explain, this is my father's fiefdom, no matter how I say it, it's the root of our family, and I'll leave it to you to take care of in the future."
"Okay, brother." Zhu Zhanqi nodded, but his eyes were fixed on Ma Qi in front of him.
Although Zhu Zhanqi did not say it explicitly, Zhu Zhanqi knew something about Zhu Zhanqi no matter what he said.
Zhu Zhanyan's malice will not be spread at will, let alone vented to one person casually, everything is for a reason.
Zhu Zhanyan's attitude can only have two possibilities: first, he doesn't like this Ma Qi, or he doesn't like this kind of behavior of the old man sending people over without his consent.
Second, there is something wrong with this horse.
And no matter what the reason is, Zhu Zhanqi knows that he must face this person, otherwise his brother will not have this kind of reaction.
This is the test that his brother left him, a midterm test.
If he can handle it well, he will be fine in the future, if he can't handle it well, it can only mean that he still needs to exercise a lot, and he is not even suitable for this position.
In any case, this Ma Qi is one of the key points that he will pay attention to in the future.
——
Just when there was a small fluctuation in Yunnan, there was a great move in Beijing.
Recommended by Yang Shiqi, Yang Pu, Yang Rong, Jin Youzi and other scholars of Wenyuan Pavilion, and recommended by the crown prince, a decision implemented by the imperial court was finally determined.
Since the fifteenth year of Yongle, that is, since the beginning of this year, Daming has abandoned Cheng Zhu Lixue and established Ram School as an official school!
As soon as this decision came out, the vicinity of Yingtian was quite good, and other places were not so calm.
Previously, Zhu Gaochi handed over several books on ram science to Yang Shiqi and others, although he did not elaborate, but obviously left this matter to them.
The prince's order, and it was obviously authorized by the emperor, Yang Shiqi and others had the intention to oppose and refuse, but the minister is the minister.
But fortunately, thanks to Zhu Zhan's blessing, because of the reasons for the grassland, Annan, and the Wa Kingdom in the past two years, the people agree with the theory of great revenge of the ram, and there is no opposition.
But this time, the imperial court ordered that Cheng Zhu Lixue be abolished and the Ram School was designated as an official school, which was different from the previous small-scale implementation by Yang Shiqi and others.
For this policy, ordinary people and poor scholars all cheered and talked about it, thinking that Daming could be regarded as really straightening his waist and standing up completely.
And those who have already obtained meritorious fame, whether they are officials or waiting (Note 1), have all voiced their opposition.
Among the voices of opposition, the scholars who are preparing for the exam are the most fierce.
In fact, I also want to know that Cheng Zhu Lixue, who has studied all his life, has risen to the top in order to be able to pass the imperial examination to gain fame, but the imperial court wants to abandon Cheng Zhu Lixue at this time and establish Ram Science as an official school.
For others, this is nothing, but for these scholars who are preparing for the exam, it is tantamount to a bolt from the blue.
Ten years of cold window, learning a loneliness, for them, if they want to gain fame in the future, it can't be said that they all start over, but it's not too much.
After all, although they are both Confucianism, there is still a gap between Cheng Zhu and Gongyang, and the central ideas are different.
But it is difficult to say what effect these opposing voices will have.
Yingtianfu, Imperial Palace, Qianqing Palace.
Zhu Di sat on the dragon chair, supported his chin with his left hand, and flipped the folds on the bookcase with his right hand.
The fierce reaction can be said to be expected by Zhu Di, but it is far beyond his imagination.
The degree of opposition from the scholars is far more fierce than Zhu Di imagined? Not really.
On the contrary, the degree of opposition from the scholars was even lower than Zhu Di imagined.
Abolishing Cheng Zhu and establishing a ram can be said to have subverted the main doctrines of the Ming Dynasty in the past, not only making thousands of scholars years or even more than ten years of hard work in vain, but also more likely to subvert the Ming Dynasty's governing policy.
Don't forget, in the past, the Ming Dynasty was mainly based on Cheng Zhu Lixue, and the main governing policy was also based on Cheng Zhu Lixue.
What kind of ideas such as the Heavenly Empire and the rule of the world with benevolence have been changed or even distorted by Zhu Lixue, and what about Ram Studies.
The ideas of great unification and great revenge can be said to represent the future development direction of the Ming Dynasty, which may be difficult for scholars who have experienced the Yuan Dynasty since the Song Dynasty and then arrived in the Ming Dynasty.
To put it mildly, they are used to kneeling, and the change from Cheng Zhu Lixue to Ram Science made them unexpected, and their knees could not be straightened up in a short time.
"Boss, what do you think?" Zhu Di pushed away the folds on the bookcase and looked up at Zhu Gaochi.
Although the reaction was not as intense as initially anticipated, it was impossible to ignore it.
The literati are in turmoil, and that is not a joke.
"This ......" Zhu Gaochi's heart trembled, and then he lowered his head.
No way?
No, Zhu Di immediately guessed what his eldest son thought.
It's not that there is no way, but it can't be said, or it can't be said through his mouth.
Zhu Di's brows furrowed, but he didn't say anything, but turned to Yang Rong.
Yang Rong, although there is a conflict with Zhu Zhanrong, it is not big, and Zhu Zhanyan has never targeted Yang Rong, so Zhu Di uses Yang Rong quite a lot.
In addition, there is the most important point, Yang Rong is measured, and he has never been as measureless as Hu Guang and Huang Huai.
Regarding this point, from the time when Zhu Dijing entered Yingtian, what he said can be verified.
"Your Majesty, Weichen suggests ......" Yang Rong looked left and right, then at Zhu Gaochi, who lowered his head, and took a deep breath.
"Move the capital!"
As soon as these words came out, the entire Qianqing Palace was silent.
Moving the capital is naturally moving the capital to Shuntianfu.
In fact, before that, most of the civil officials were against the relocation of the capital, while the military generals were on the contrary, they supported the relocation of the capital.
There is only one reason, if the capital is moved to Suncheonfu, then it will have to face the threat of the grassland, Jianzhou Wei and Nuer Gandu Division.
This is what later generations often say, "The Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies", but this is not what Zhu Di said, nor did any Ming Dynasty monarch say, but later generations summarized it according to Zhu Di's relocation of the capital to Shuntian and Chongzhen's hanging of the coal mountain.
When the capital is moved to Suncheon, there will be more and more things for the civil officials, and the so-called "gentlemen do not stand under the dangerous wall", the civil officials are naturally opposed.
And for military generals, facing the enemy directly means that the chances of gaining combat merits have increased, and they will naturally support it.
And now, Yang Rong, as a civil official, actually spoke up to support ......
No! It was the initiative to move the capital.
Zhu Di glanced at Zhu Gaochi deeply.
Although he knew that this suggestion might not have been put forward by his own boss, if the capital was moved to Shuntian at the moment, it would be of the greatest benefit to the princelings, which would inevitably make him think more.
Zhu Gaoxu's lineage, especially Zhu Zhanqi, has too much influence on the imperial court, and moving the capital to Shuntian can not only break the thoughts of the generals to a certain extent, but also reduce Zhu Zhanyan's influence on the imperial court.
Take 10,000 steps back and say...... In case Zhu Zhan rebelled in the future, after moving the capital to Suncheon, the time for the imperial court to react would increase.
But!
At present, it is about the abolition of Cheng Zhu and the establishment of the ram, and the relocation of the capital to Shuntian can solve the matter of the scholars opposing the establishment of the ram as an official school to a certain extent, or even a good one.
There is only one reason: the hostility between the North and the South.
As I said before, among the literati, the antagonism between the north and the south was very serious, and even once so serious that the imperial court had to consider its balance.
Moving the capital to Shuntian is to divert people's attention, and secondly, once the capital is moved, the opposition of the northern scholars will definitely weaken, and the southern scholars will naturally not watch at this time.
This has come and gone, and it is only a matter of time before the opposition dies down.
In addition, the matter of moving the capital has long been decided, and the construction and restoration of Shuntianfu have also been improved, in fact, the capital can be moved last year, but there has been no specific time.
"That ......" Zhu Di took a deep breath, glanced at his eldest son, who was still a quail, and said slowly.
"Inform Lu Zhen of the Ministry of Rites and ask him to get a charter as soon as possible and implement the matter of moving the capital."
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
The civil servants fell to their knees.
……
Just when Ying Tian's side made a decision that was enough to change or even subvert the situation in the Ming Dynasty, Li Bin had already led three thousand soldiers to the Liaodong Dusi.
This is thanks to the Ming Dynasty's policy of opening up the sea ban, and this aspect of shipping has been gradually figured out, and there is no longer a need to find a treasure fleet like when Zhu Zhanqi conquered the Japanese Kingdom before.
Three thousand soldiers may seem like a few, but these three thousand soldiers are the most important part of this battle, because they are from the Shenji Battalion.
There are not many permanent troops in the Ming Dynasty, even if it is a temporary deployment, it is no problem to get 780,000 or even 100,000, but this is not the case.
To fight, and to fight on the Great Wall, basically no permanent troops will be called, at least half of the five military battalions must be left to protect the Beijing Division.
Li Bin's expedition to Jianzhou Wei this time, the core combat force is undoubtedly the Shenji Battalion, and in addition to the Shenji Battalion, Zhu Di also transferred a total of 160,000 soldiers (including people) from Guangning Wei and Kaiping Wei.
As soon as Li Bin settled down, his guards walked over with a person, and as soon as this person spoke, everyone looked sideways.
"Li Zhen, the son of the king of Joseon, has seen the Marquis of Fengcheng."
Looking at Li Zhen in front of him, although Li Bin was disdainful, he still had to do the kung fu on the surface, and he bowed down and returned the salute immediately.
"Wang Shizi is polite, this battle still depends on your help."
"Fengcheng Hou, where is this?" Li Zhen hurriedly waved his hand, and pretended to pat Li Bin's shoulder intimately.
"North Korea is a subordinate country of the Ming Dynasty, and now the Ming Dynasty has exterminated the rebels, and it is close to the border of North Korea in Jianzhouwei, North Korea, as a subordinate country, naturally wants to help."
Li Zhen's posture was very low, which made Li Bin a little vigilant while disdainful.
He thought of what it looked like when Zhu Zhanyan happened to talk to him about the supply problem when he was in the Wa Kingdom before.
At that time, Zhu Zhanyan had only one comment: this person didn't know how to fight, but he had a ruthless energy, and he dared to withhold Daming's grain and grass in order to take revenge on his father, if he grew up, he would definitely be a ruthless person.
This is like a joke in later generations, saying that if you travel to ancient times and are suppressed by your family to the point that you can't get worse, how can you take revenge on your family?
Netizens commented that he went to assassinate the emperor, because it would punish the nine clans, and the court would check people, it would be much faster than checking and taking revenge one by one, as long as it was within the nine clans, whether you were a man or a woman, old or young, all the damned and unworthy had to die.
Li Zhen's behavior of deducting Daming grain and grass at that time is a bit similar to this.
And now, Li Bin has discovered one of Li Zhen's advantages, which is also a point worthy of his fear.
Forbear.
Li Bin is a general of the Ming Dynasty, although he is a lord, but he is only a marquis, and Li Zhen is the prince of North Korea, and according to the regulations, he is on the same level as Zhu Zhanqi.
Such a person can let go of his identity, and even be willing to worship his subordinates when he sees Li Bin for the first time, I have to say that this person can indeed achieve great things.
This vigilance alerted Li Bin.
He knew very well that Li Zhen did not do this because he admired him, but because he used to be a member of the Han Dynasty, and now he is also one of the few military generals in Zhu Zhan Yan who is still connected.
Because of this, Li Zhen put his posture so low.
"Wang Shizi can have such enlightenment, which is the blessing of the Ming Dynasty, the blessing of North Korea, and the blessing of the world."
Li Bin quietly broke away from Li Zhen's hand, and his expression became serious.
"When I first came here, my understanding of Jianzhou Wei was limited to the information obtained by Jingshi, and I don't know when Wang Shizi arrived? Is there any movement related to the establishment of state health? ”
When Li Zhen heard this, his expression became serious, he glanced around, pulled Li Bin and took two steps, and then whispered.
"Before coming here, I had already taken my soldiers around the Aye Kuhe River for seven days, and I got a little bit of the movement of the rebels, please take a look at the Marquis of Fengcheng."
As he spoke, Li Zhen took out a secret letter from his arms and handed it to Li Bin.
Seeing that Li Bin was scanning the secret letter, Li Zhen looked around again, and stopped talking.
Li Bin didn't see it, he didn't care, he turned his head after briefly reading the secret letter, and when he saw Li Zhen who wanted to speak and stopped, he was also stunned for a moment.
"Does Wang Shizi have anything to say? But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”
"Then ......" Li Zhen thought for a while, gritted his teeth, and leaned into Li Bin's ear and said.
"Marquis Fengcheng, I don't know what Your Majesty means to exterminate the rebels this time......"
Li Bin raised his head and looked at Li Zhen playfully, with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth.
If you are a human being, you will have shortcomings, Li Bin has it, Zhu Zhan Yan has it, and even Zhu Di has it.
How can a Li Fu not have weaknesses?
Note 1: The imperial examination is divided into the township examination, the meeting examination and the palace examination, according to the system of the Ming Dynasty, the township examination has the qualification to be an official, but in fact, how many people are officials in this capacity is not very clear, and it is estimated that there are not many.
