Chapter 422: It's time to go on a crusade
After washing up and drinking the medicine, Zhu Youzhu pursed his mouth, waited for the bitter taste to dissolve from his mouth, and then slowly dissipated, and then walked out of the dormitory and sat down on the Dan Majesty Dragon chair in the main hall.
Several ministers of the six cabinets also came in from outside the hall, and after saluting, Emperor Hongzhi was about to take out the note, but at this moment, there was the sound of eunuchs troving outside the hall. ”
Hearing this voice, Emperor Hongzhi's body was shocked, and the first thought in his mind was that the rebel had news.
According to the time calculation, at this time, the British Duke should have led a large army to the Japanese country, but this report is different from the ordinary report, at least more than ten days ago.
More than ten days ago, it was possible that it was also in the Wa Kingdom, but it was more likely in North Korea.
No matter where you are, it's good to have news of that rebel.
Good news.
Emperor Hongzhi's heart seemed to be trembling, and he couldn't care about the previous recital, he held the armrest of the dragon chair with his hand, watched Xiao Jing hurriedly take the recital, suppressed the emotions in his heart, his face tightened, and the words he said were cold, cold and trembling, "Nian, give me a thought, let me hear if the rebel died outside." ”
"I respectfully ask Your Majesty St. Ann. On the second day of the ninth month of the sixteenth year of Hongzhi, my Ming Dynasty sent an envoy to North Korea, and passed the decree to let North Korea send troops, and Chen Shi was at the mouth of the Baijiang River, waiting for the Ming soldiers to come, and went to conquer the Japanese together.
The Korean monarch and the ministers gladly agreed, but after the ministers and their soldiers arrived at the mouth of the Baekgang River in Korea by ship, they found that the so-called Chen soldiers of the DPRK did not have a single ship, and there were only more than 2,000 soldiers, the old, weak, sick and disabled.
“.”
When the people present heard this, they had already realized that something was wrong, and it seemed that this was not news about the crown prince, but a letter of impeachment against North Korea.
Emperor Hongzhi is even more like a fish in his throat, his heart is constantly sinking, and his heart is looking forward to it, but it turns out to be this?
Such trivial matters, as the commander of the British duke, can't you still make your own decisions?
Xiao Jing's voice continued, but at this time his face was a little frozen, although he hadn't read the back yet, but his eyes swept to the next content, so that his hand holding the report shook a few times, "Later, the post-ministers verified that Li Long, the current lord of North Korea, has been mad and has lost his conscience, and since he ascended the throne, he has repeatedly done unTaoist things, and he has the heart to destroy Confucianism, and even has the reality of destroying Confucianism." ”
Destroy the heart of Confucianism, destroy the truth of Confucianism.
Hearing these eight words, the ministers present couldn't help but chuckle in their hearts, and their expressions became solemn.
The word extermination of Confucianism is too weighty, it can be called the destruction of Confucianism, the disaster of the party in the Han Dynasty, thousands of Confucian students were exiled and executed, this is the extermination of Confucianism, Qin Shi Huang's book burning pit Confucianism, can also be called extermination of Confucianism.
And what is this extermination of Confucianism in North Korea? [PS: Qin Shi Huang is not a Confucian, but a monk, but the above is what these ministers think, they don't know. 】
"According to the minister's information, the Korean lord Li Long turned his domestic Sungkyunkwan into a brothel, and this Sungkyunkwan is equivalent to my Ming Dynasty's Guozijian in North Korea."
These contents, Xiao Jing read a little difficult, every time he read a word, he had to pause, and when he read this, he wanted to continue reading, but he couldn't read it anyway, because the entire Qianqing Palace had already blown up the nest.
It's like a pot of hot oil meets water, and it's boiling completely.
Whether it was the three elders of the cabinet or several ministers of the six ministries, everyone's anger was completely ignited, and everyone's face showed a look of anger.
"Appalling, appalling"
"Brute!"
"Pigs and dogs are not as good as beasts!"
There was a lot of scolding in the hall, and even the old and serious people could hardly suppress their emotions.
Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed the Hundred Schools of Thought and respected Confucianism for nearly 2,000 years, Confucianism has long since developed from an academic discipline and an ideology to a religion-like appearance.
In the East, Confucianism is the equivalent of Christianity in the West, and in terms of influence, it is even more than that.
Christianity in the West holds both theocracy and secular power, while in the East, Confucianism controls all power outright.
Imagine how Christians would react if someone turned a Roman cathedral into a brothel.
Those were Christians, and these ministers were the disciples of the saints.
Sungkyunkwan, which had the status of a national eunuch, was transformed into a brothel, and when did Confucianism ever suffer such humiliation since its prosperity, which was a blatant insult to the saints and to all Confucian scholars in the world.
It's worse than digging up their ancestral graves.
"Your Majesty!"
At this time, Ma Wen, the secretary of the Ministry of War, snorted, and directly leaned down and knelt down: "Now the lord of the Korean country is tyrannical and unreasonable, insulting the Holy Gate, and doing such unheard of things, the gods and men are indignant, and the heaven and earth are intolerable, Your Majesty, please ask Your Majesty to issue a decree to crusade against Korea!" ”
The rest of the ministers also seemed to think about it at this time, and they knelt on the ground one after another, "North Korea is now often reversed, jackals are in charge, and etiquette is so bad that the ministers ask for an order, and the rebels crusade against the tyrant of the unjust way to make the world clear." ”
Faced with such a situation, Emperor Hongzhi on the dragon throne had not yet spoken, but Xiao Jing next to him took the lead in speaking: "Ladies and gentlemen, the British Duke has already sent a large army to crusade."
Already on a crusade?
The hall suddenly fell silent, and Emperor Hongzhi's gaze swept over the kneeling ministers, and finally looked at Xiao Jing, "The British Duke has already sent a large army to crusade against Korea, so this letter is cut first and then played?" ”
"Yes, it is said that the DPRK and the Daming mountains and seas are blocked and separated too far apart, and if the request is made, it will take too much time to go back and forth, and it will take too much time to delay the fighter plane, which will arouse the vigilance of the Korean lord Li Long, so he will make an arbitrary proposition and send troops to conquer first, and at the same time order people to return to the DPRK to submit the note."
"Behind the recital, there is also Changdehou's plea."
"Changdehou's plea?" Emperor Hongzhi frowned when he heard this, the British duke's recital, what crime did the Marquis of Changdehou ask for?
"Yes, it is clearly stated in the recital that the British official book does not dare to be arbitrary, and it is Changdehou who advocates it and makes it clear what is at stake, so that there is a matter of cutting first and then playing."
Speaking of this, Xiao Jing paused, and said: "And looking at the handwriting on it, it seems that this letter is also from the hand of Changdehou." ”
“.”
Emperor Hongzhi bowed slightly, his frowning eyebrows stretched a little, first cut and then played, these four words can definitely touch the sensitive nerves of any emperor.
However, the DPRK is indeed too far apart, and if it is requested, it will inevitably delay the fighter plane, and the monarch will not be subject to the orders of the foreign monarch.
And this matter was strongly advocated by the son-in-law, which is understandable.
Look at the reaction of these ministers, and you can see what the reaction of the son-in-law who is far away in North Korea is.
"Did you mention the rest of the story?" Emperor Hongji asked again.
Xiao Jing knew what the rest of the things meant, and in the face of Emperor Hongzhi's expectant eyes, he could only shake his head in silence and lower his head again.
Seeing this, Zhu Youzhu sighed deeply, and his heart became angry again, it is best for this rebel to die outside, he thought resentfully, but there was Qi Ran in those eyes.
After a while, he lifted himself up and said to the ministers: "Although this matter is suspected of being cut first and then played, it will be disregarded by the foreign monarch's order, not to mention that Korea is separated by mountains and seas, and it takes time to ask for an edict. ”
Seeing that the emperor had set the tone, it was not good for the ministers present to impeach anything on this matter, not to mention that they didn't want to impeach.
Thinking about it carefully, if it was himself who accompanied the army this time, he suddenly heard about it, and I am afraid that he would not be able to take care of any petitions, and directly persuaded the British to crusade against Korea.
After all, Nachang Dehou, like them, was a person who read the books of sages and sages, and was a son of Confucianism.
Such a thing cannot be tolerated by any Confucian disciple.
