Chapter 429: Never Admit Defeat
The Temple of Nourishing the Heart.
"Are you crazy?" Looking at the daughter-in-law kneeling below, Zhang, who is now the empress dowager, was full of anger and did not hide half a point.
"Don't you know that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics? Even if you violate this ban, you still want to appoint and dismiss a Shangshu!? ”
Feeling Zhang's anger, Sun Ruowei knelt down and didn't dare to say a word.
Didn't she know that the current cabinet and the six ministries were already connected and inseparable?
No, she knows.
Didn't she know that the current emperor's lineage was still weak, and she relied on a deal with King Wu to get this opportunity?
No, she knew it.
But it is because she knows that she has to do it, because she has to do it, if she doesn't work hard but chooses to give up, then as time goes by, there will really be no one in the Manchu dynasty who is loyal to the emperor.
Instead, it was Zhu Zhan Yan, who was in the line of King Wu.
In fact, the facts have also confirmed this from the side, because Sun Ruowei wants to appoint and dismiss Ye En, the secretary of the Criminal Department, is the easiest person in the cabinet and the six ministries.
Although Ye En is a ram scholar, he is not extreme, and he does not have too much intersection with the Wu Wang Party on weekdays, so he is the easiest one to deal with.
At first, Sun Ruowei also wanted to win over rather than drive away, but it turned out that even Ye En, a person who was not deeply related to King Wu, could understand the situation.
After the death of Emperor Xuande, Chen Xun was the main body, supplemented by the cabinet and the six ministries, and at the same time added to the British public Zhang Fu, which formed the current auxiliary political group, and finally submitted the big and small matters to the hands of the Empress Dowager Zhang, and only after sealing will they be issued and implemented in accordance with the procedures.
And the appointment and dismissal of a Shangshu, and the minister of the former emperor's edict and auxiliary government, the appointment and dismissal of this kind of person is a major matter among the major things, and the matter encountered the first problem when it came to Zhang Fu.
Although Zhang Fu didn't say it explicitly, he still vaguely reminded Sun Ruowei that he couldn't do it, but Sun Ruowei didn't listen.
Later, it was different, except for Chen Xun, who was in charge of the ministry, Hu Hu, who was in charge of the Ministry of Rites, didn't even say a word, and directly stamped it.
In fact, everyone knows that this holy decree will not be carried out, because it will not be able to pass the pass of the Empress Dowager Zhang.
However, the queen mother ...... "Sun Ruowei was still a little unwilling.
"If you don't do something now, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will eventually become the supporters of King Wu, and what if Qi Zhen grows up at that time? No, or no one available? ”
"So what?" Zhang looked at his daughter-in-law below, and his heart was full of disappointment.
"Even if you try? Do you think that even if I seal it, this decree will be issued? ”
"Don't look at Hu Hu, I stamped you without even the slightest hesitation, but in fact, if I stamped it and sent this holy decree to the Ministry of Rites for execution, I still couldn't execute it in the end."
"Because the reason why Hu Hu didn't tell you anything was because he knew that I would stop you, but if I agreed, he wouldn't be like this anymore."
"You also know that the cabinet and the six ministries are now one, even if everyone passes it, who do you let it implement? Could it be that you, the queen mother, should go and read the holy decree in person and drive away a book? ”
Speaking of this, Zhang couldn't help but sigh, and his dissatisfaction with Sun Ruowei was even worse.
In fact, she has never liked this daughter-in-law very much, and she prefers Hu Shanxiang in comparison, because Hu Shanxiang is better than Sun Ruowei in comparison.
Not everyone thinks that Hu Shanxiang can beat Sun Ruowei to become the concubine because of Zhu Zhanqi, although the Zhang family knows that there is also this reason, but mainly because Hu Shanxiang is better than Sun Ruowei, which made Emperor Taizong personally designate the candidate for the concubine.
The same is true of the Zhang family in history, even after Hu Shanxiang was deposed, the Zhang family often called Hu Shanxiang to live in Qingning Palace, and even let Hu Shanxiang sit on top of Sun Ruowei during the banquet of the inner court.
Of course, Hu Shanxiang is more suitable to be the queen only in terms of the current emperor's situation, because what the current emperor has to do is to lie dormant and teach the young emperor.
As for the future...... That's for later, and it can't be done now.
As for who is suitable to be the queen in history...... That is a matter of the benevolent and the wise and the wise, and those who are not witnesses have no right to speak.
After all, being a queen is not something you can do with high morality, this position that seems to be the mother of the world, in fact, is not less than other positions, and even more.
"You go back......" Zhang sighed lightly.
"Don't think about it now, I'm tired and don't want to teach you with emotions anymore."
"You also know that the current situation is not in Qizhen's favor, so you want to work hard, but you have to know that working hard at the wrong time will only make you go further and further in the direction of failure."
"Qi Zhen's only possibility of success is to grow into a wise monarch, at least so that the courtiers can't find too much fault, and let the people feel that he can be a good emperor."
"If he doesn't succeed, then even if you succeed, it's useless, and that position will still be lost by himself."
"As Qi Zhen's mother, what you have to do is to do what a mother should do, as for other identities...... Don't think about it just yet. ”
"Yes......" Sun Ruowei was very unwilling, but there was no way.
Zhang thinks what is needed now is hibernation, but what she thinks is the opposite.
A person, even if he is like Goujian, the king of Yue, but in the end, if he doesn't have a little strength in his hands, how can he overturn Wu Wangfucha like Goujian, the king of Yue?
Sun Ruowei has never been a patient person, from the concubine to the concubine to the concubine, this journey has exhausted her few patiences.
In her opinion, instead of holding back for more than ten years, it is better to prepare early than to accumulate strength little by little, and then to fight for the last little chance of success.
Anyway, both decisions are risky.
In fact, she didn't know that all of this was just because Zhu Zhanyan pinched that she was not a qualified mother and teacher, so she would let it go.
If you look at it from another angle, Zhu Qizhen will have the same achievements as Emperor Taizong, then Zhu Zhanzhen would have already killed him in the bud, where would he have time to grow?
To put it bluntly, everything is because of the bottom of the heart.
Moreover, at this moment, Zhu Zhanyan actually doesn't have the leisure to take care of the mother and son.
Venice.
This world-famous water city, the only city in the world without cars, is claimed to be God's tears here, but it makes it more crystal and tender, like a romantic dream floating on the blue waves.
However, at the moment, there is no romance at all in this romantic city, only fear and sadness.
Because of the fact that white phosphorus is always preserved with water, Jian Xiao originally thought that white phosphorus eggs would not be of much use here, after all, this is a water city.
However, no one expected that the white phosphorous egg would exert unparalleled power here.
In the spring of Venice, the temperature obviously does not reach the 40 degrees of the ignition point of white phosphorus, but the white phosphorus can attach to the buildings and burn, and the Europeans who are forced to break out of the window and try to jump into the water to find a glimmer of life.
But no one thought that this was the beginning of the torture.
If they stay in the house, the end result is to die in the fire, but after jumping into the water, the flames will not hurt them, but the poisonous gases produced by the combustion will make them prefer to die in the fire.
For this scene, Jian Xiao, who was standing southeast of Venice and was holding a telescope to observe the situation in Venice.
Although it was very unexpected, it was only a surprise at the power of the white phosphorite in this water city, as for the reaction of the Venetians......
It's no wonder.
"General Jane."
Just as Jian Xiao was still waiting, waiting for the white phosphorus fire in Venice to finish burning, a prince guard came to his side.
"The soldiers escorting the captives have arrived, how is General Jane's side?"
"There's nothing wrong with it anymore." Jian Xiao raised her head to look at the position of the sun, and estimated the time before replying.
"Judging by the time, there shouldn't be anyone who will be able to escape, let the soldiers escorting the captives come over, and I will send someone to guide them to bypass here from a suitable place for their companions."
"Yes!" The prince bowed and retreated.
Jian Xiao looked at the back of the prince's guard, and then turned his head to look in the direction of Venice.
That's not quite right, because Jane Xiao seems to be looking at Venice, but in fact, he is actually looking at the direction behind Venice.
There, it's Mohachi!
The reason why those captives were able to escort Zhu Zhan Yan from the Papal State all the way to Venice, and even continue to go forward, was because Zhu Zhan Yan planned to bring this group of prisoners to Zagreb.
It was where the soldiers of the Papal States, the Duchy of Venice and Croatia went, with the Papal States having the largest number of troops, more than half of whom were "famous" crusaders.
Previously, Zhu Zhanyan had talked to Jian Xiao about Yolanda's ambitions, and said that this girl might try to take advantage of the fact that all the people in Europe believe in religion and believe in the same religion, and at the end of the cooperation with the Ming army, they turned the table and united those countries that had been attacked by the Ming army to jointly fight against the Ming army.
Therefore, Zhu Zhanyan naturally has to be on guard.
These captives were intended to completely break the confidence of the defenders of the Holy See and the Holy Roman Empire in Zagreb, especially the Crusaders.
Zhu Zhanyan has always believed that there are only two forms of victory in this world.
One is complete intellectual domination, and the other is complete physical domination.
The so-called ideological rule is to manipulate the minds of these people, so that they willingly become inferior people, honestly accept the rule, and the most important thing is to let them live forever through this method, including future generations will not have the idea of resistance.
How easy is it to do this? Therefore, Zhu Zhanyan has always been inclined to the second type.
The so-called physical domination is the domination of the physical level, that is, obedience is life, and resistance is death.
Although Zhu Zhanyan maintained the idea of killing as much as possible along the way, and he did the same, in fact, if it came to the end, he would definitely stay some.
After all, there will always be a number of slaves, but the number will be controlled very strictly, as far as it goes......
In Zhu Zhan's initial plan, he planned to leave about 7 percent of the population of the whole of Europe, of which the old and weak were not left, and women were not counted.
Women will be sold as goods, and the old and weak will really not be left.
What Zhu Zhanyan is doing now is to first disintegrate them ideologically, then rule them physically, and finally achieve his goal.
