After he sat on the dragon chair, the people of Honglu Temple began to sing, and the ministers of civil and military affairs entered the main hall in two columns. When the ministers stood still and Emperor Wanli looked down, the courage in his heart began to fade rapidly! Because under the dragon chair, the two classes of civil and military ministers stood full!

In the past, many officials did not actually go to the court, and they only showed up during the great court. Those who really participated in the early dynasties were really high-grade officials.

But today, not only high-grade officials have arrived, but even faces that have not appeared in the morning court for a long time have also appeared! However, what made Emperor Wanli feel relieved was that the civil and military classes stared at each other like cockfights. It seems that they are indeed not linked, but the oppressive atmosphere they bring has always circled in the main hall, making the already somewhat cold hall even colder!

Seeing that everyone was together, the eunuch on duty shouted loudly: "There is a book to play, and there is no book to retreat!" ”

After a moment of silence, an official knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, the county order of Lanxian County, Shanxi Province has written that the county has suffered from drought, and most of the seedlings have died, and the imperial court needs relief!" ”

After speaking, he took out an excerpt and read it with affection, but Emperor Wanli's mind was on this, and his eyes just kept sweeping over the civil and military classes.

After he finished reading the excerpt, Zhang Juzheng stepped forward and said: "You can let the provincial government open a warehouse to release grain first to help the victims survive this time!" At the same time, the Ministry of Industry went to check to see if the water conservancy facilities in Lan County had been repaired in recent years? And ......"

Zhang Juzheng said a few things freely, and for each one he said, the corresponding official came out to say that he had written it down. Soon the matter was dealt with. Subsequently, another group of officials came out to report a lot of things. However, under Zhang Juzheng's mediation, the officials of various parts quickly broke down and implemented the matter, which was faster than usual!

After all the officials had dealt with everything, the hall was quiet anyway. The eunuch on duty shouted loudly again: "There is a book to play, and there is no book to retreat!" ”

According to the usual process, after the eunuch shouted at that time, if the minister was fine, he should bow down to the Wanli Emperor and withdraw, and this early dynasty would be over. But after the eunuch on duty shouted today, not only did no one go out to work, but the ministers didn't even have the intention of quitting the hall!

Even after the eunuch on duty shouted a second time, everyone remained unmoved. At this time, the eunuch on duty also found out that something was abnormal, but he didn't dare to shout a third time, so he had to stand there very embarrassed.

Seeing this situation, Emperor Wanli felt that he could take advantage of it, so he suddenly stood up and said, "Since all the Qing families have nothing to play, then retreat from the dynasty!" ”

Emperor Wanli thought very well, and shouted to retreat from the dynasty when everyone was silent, even if he mixed up today's early dynasty! But when it comes to the end, where can you hide!

Just when Emperor Wanli raised his legs to leave, he heard someone say loudly: "Your Majesty, slow down, the minister has a book!" ”

And this voice is not made by one person, Emperor Wanli listened to at least four people to speak again! He looked back in the direction the voice came from, and it was sure it was coming from among the noble military attachés. But there was a voice, but no one in the crowd stood up!

Emperor Wanli was furious in his heart, that is, he hated these people for being extremely greedy, and hated them for being irresponsible, no wonder he was suppressed by Wenchen! Now it's time for Tu Poor Dagger to see it, and he still refuses to stand up by himself, and expects others to take the fire for him!

So Emperor Wanli said with a cold face: "Who has a play, why don't you go to class?" If no one comes out of work, retire today! ”

Speaking of which, Emperor Wanli flicked his sleeves and wanted to leave, but when his eyes swept over Zhang Juzheng under the dragon chair, he saw a look of surprise in Zhang Juzheng's eyes! But as soon as he took two steps, he heard someone say, "Your Majesty, it's the minister's book!" ”

Emperor Wanli would look at it and see that the person who came was slightly fat, with a white face, and he still learned that the literati had three strands of long hair, and he didn't look like a military general at all.

Just when this person went out to pay homage, Zhang Jia quickly said in the ear of Emperor Wanli: "This person is Ning Xibo Zhou Zhiwu!" He doesn't have a specific position in the imperial court, and he is relatively close to the people in the northwest on weekdays! ”

Emperor Wanli immediately understood that this person was just a small character, who was pushed out by his fellow party to be tempted. He estimated that the other people who shouted were about the same identity.

You must know that the nobles are not monolithic, and they are also divided into several groups according to family background, position and other factors. That's why there were three or four people rushing out of the class together. As a result, in the end, several other people did not come out, but pushed him out, which shows that his status among the nobles is quite low.

Emperor Wanli turned around and sat down, only to hear Ning Xibo Zhou Zhiwu say: "Your Majesty, recently, the border army in the northwest has repeatedly written to inform the imperial court that there is too much shortage of war horses in the northwest, and many soldiers can only ride one horse for two people when they train, which has seriously affected the combat strength of the army in the northwest!" Therefore, I implore the imperial court to allocate 500,000 taels of silver for the purchase of war horses! ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a commotion among the two classes of ministers who were caused by the lion's big mouth! Emperor Wanli looked at the courtiers who showed astonishment, all of them were low-grade ministers, it seemed that they didn't know what the head above was thinking, and they were already frightened by this number!

But Emperor Wanli was even more annoyed! He knew that it was rumored that Jubao Zhai earned almost one million taels of silver a year, so Ning Xibo's mouth was 500,000 taels of silver, and this thought was already unmistakable! But Emperor Wanli knew that Jubaozhai didn't earn so much silver at all, and it was completely a hook in Liu Haojia's imperial history, so he was even more angry with the greedy courtiers!

But at this time, Emperor Wanli didn't want to speak, because according to the usual, the government was decided by Zhang Juzheng, so he looked at Zhang Juzheng. But to Wanli's surprise, Zhang Juzheng actually lowered his eyes, as if he hadn't heard someone doing something!

Seeing Zhang Juzheng's appearance, Emperor Wanli was shocked in his heart, because he didn't know if Zhang Juzheng was ready to meddle or wait for the last shot? But when it comes to the end, he can only believe that Liu Haojia has a way to reverse the current unfavorable situation.

Thinking of this, Emperor Wanli fixed his mind and said: "Ning Xibo, I don't remember that you have an errand in the court, and I can't see you in the court on weekdays, but today's northwest matter, why did you play it?" ”
