Wang Yue did not have the authority to directly transfer troops from the two towns of Xuanfu and Datong.

If you want to transfer troops, you must also get the permission of the imperial court, and as for the so-called transfer, it is just a chase after the wind and shadows, and there is no detailed report below.

Zhu Youzhu wants to ask, where did you Liu Ge always hear this news?

You actually found out important information, so that you can be sure that Wang Yue is in the northwest...... How can this not make me depressed!

"Elder Liu Ge, it's better to ask clearly, I'm not trying to protect anyone, even the first battle of Helan Mountain can be tolerated, is it possible that even Wang Weining went to the head to reorganize the army, and he still has to make it clear to the ministers one by one?"

Zhu Youzhu spoke earnestly.

tried to exchange sincerity for Liu Jian's support in the northwest.

Liu Jian did not answer, and also retired after giving up.

When Liu Jian left, the more Zhu Youzhu thought about it, the more angry he became.

"Check out, who leaked the news, there is no immediate transfer of troops in the northwest, there are people who make something out of nothing, if the Tatars change their movements because of this leakage, can this responsibility be afforded?"

Zhu Youzhu didn't put the fire on Liu Jianjian, probably because he also considered that Liu Jian was just doing his duty after learning the news.

Now Zhu Youzhi just wants to find out who is fanning the flames behind it.

Xiao Jing said respectfully: "Yes." ”

Dongchang came forward, and things seemed to be clear.

……

……

The festival is underway.

After the ceremony of sacrificing heaven and earth, there was nothing to do with Qin Tianjian that day, and it stands to reason that the monarch and ministers will return to the city, and Zhu Youzhi will also go back to the palace to pay homage to the empress dowager and the empress dowager.

Before he could leave, Xiao Jing came to report here.

"Your Majesty, it seems that there is a private discussion among the ministers about the affairs of the northwest."

Zhu Youzhu was already very angry, and when he heard this, the anger in his heart was even more unbeatable.

It was originally well hidden, but it suddenly seemed to become a well-known thing, and maybe the previous efforts were in vain.

"Who's talking about it?"

Zhu Youzhu probably knows that it is not easy to find the initiator now, and he must first curb this trend of private discussion.

Xiao Jing said: "Or there are people from the Hanlin Academy who are letting the wind out, as for who it is, it is still being investigated." But now there are many people talking about it among the ministers...... If there is a court, I am afraid that it will be ......"

Roughly speaking, it's a bit unbearable now.

If there is another court meeting, there will be a dispute in the court.

Wang Yue was clearly left in office and idle, but in fact he went to the northwest to reorganize the army, and the courtiers were tantamount to uniting with the emperor and Wang Yue to fool him, and the ministers didn't know about the preparations for war in the northwest, and the civil officials didn't make trouble?

Zhu Youzhu frowned.

He had really listened to the exhortations of those scholars.

Xiao Jing said tentatively: "But the day after tomorrow, there will be ten days of rest......

"Ten days off...... But what about tomorrow? What about after the 10-day break? When the war is still uninitiated, will their discussion subside? ”

Zhu Youzhu didn't think it was a good idea.

Luan Driver is ready.

Zhu Youzhi is about to board Luan, before leaving, it seems that he must arrange this matter, otherwise the court will be reversed early tomorrow morning, after all, those imperial historians do not have Liu Jian's good temper, and they can just ask him alone after the court meeting is over.

"In the New Year, I also want to have my ears clean. In this way, go and find someone to reveal the three things that Bingkuan predicted will happen after the year......"

Zhu Youzhu thought of an idea.

"Your Majesty?"

Xiao Jing didn't understand.

Why do you want to "sell" Zhang Zhou?

Zhu Youzhu said: "Bingkuan is dedicated to me, for the northwest military and government, he shouldn't bear anything, since those people think that I trust Bingkuan is wrong, then show them Bingkuan's ability, thinking that if I don't say it, they will have any kindness to Bingkuan?" ”

The emperor still sees things more thoroughly than ordinary people.

Even if he doesn't mention Zhang Zhou, others will not treat Zhang Zhou as an orthodox civil official, so instead of hiding Zhang Zhou, it is better to directly show Zhang Zhou's ability in front of everyone.

There was a showdown.

I told you that this was what Zhang Zhou had predicted, and that he had done the previous epidemic, the fire in Qingning Palace, the earthquake, and the possible invasion of the Tatars in the northwest this time.

And I also gave a few free articles, that is, Zhang Zhou also predicted that there will still be big events after the year.

For example, the earthquakes in Shaanxi and Ningxia in February, there are two more ...... Although Zhang Zhou didn't say it explicitly, it is estimated that the matter will not be small, otherwise it will not appear in Zhang Zhou's prophecy.

Now that you have raised the matter of preparing for war in the northwest to the level that the monarch and the ministers do not tolerate, what else am I hiding from you?

"In the past few days, Bingkuan has not been in Jingshi, and more people have been sent to protect him, and his mansion has been guarded by more people, I don't believe that they can still do anything to Bingkuan!"

Zhu Youzhu also came up with a burst of anger.

I just have to do something, it's useless for you to persuade me, I still have to protect Zhang Zhou, so that he can continue to shine for Daming.

In order to prevent you from stabbing him after learning the news, I sent someone to protect him.

There is no affection between the monarch and the minister.

……

……

Xiao Jing took the emperor's instructions and went to find Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and Xie Qian.

The ministers were to return to the palace with them.

The rest of the people were already gathered, only the three cabinet members were still talking to Xiao Jing, and many people were also looking this way.

“…… Father-in-law Xiao, Your Majesty won't think that the old man leaked the news, right? ”

Liu Jian frowned.

I just talked to the emperor in the morning, and the emperor here seemed to feel that there was a rumor about the northwest outside, and Liu Jian first had to clear up his relationship with the leakage of the news.

Xiao Jing smiled: "How come? Your Majesty just asked our family to tell us what happened. In fact, this is all Mr. Zhang, that is, Gongsheng Zhang Zhou, who prophesied in advance that there will be a great chaos in the northwest, and the Tatars will pour out of the nest......"

The previous conversation between the emperor and Liu Jian only vaguely indicated that there was indeed a movement in the northwest.

But it didn't make it so clear.

When Xiao Jing told this story, Li Dongyang and Xie Qian were still standing next to him, and the cabinet was clear about the original situation, and even Ma Wensheng was involved in it.

Before the emperor moved in the northwest, he first passed through the level of the military department, Wang Yue himself was still the left attendant of the military department, plus Zhang Mao of the five military governors' mansion and Zhang Mao of the Beijing camp......

No matter how you look at it, the emperor didn't completely skip the court, he just didn't say it in the court, and he didn't greet the three members of the cabinet.

Li Dongyang said: "Your Majesty believes in the delusion of a tribute so much? ”

Xiao Jing said: "The three elders, it's not that Your Majesty refuses to believe it, it's really sometimes...... I have to believe that the three of them should also know about the previous Xinye land movement, which was measured by Mr. Zhang, and Mr. Zhang also said that there will be ground movements in Shaanxi and Ningxia in February......"

Xie Qian smiled and said: "This Zhang Bingkuan seems to be very good at geodesy or something, then Daming wants to guard against ground movements in the future, and he can warn him in advance." ”

"Old Xie Ge, you smiled, not only the ground moves, but even the heavenly fire can be predicted, Qingning Palace is really descended by the heavenly fire, and many people have seen it with their own eyes."

Xiao Jing could naturally hear that Xie Qian was making fun of Zhang Zhou.

"Really?" Xie Qian was still smiling, obviously not believing it in his words.

You don't need to explain the things in your palace, we don't want to know if it's a heavenly fire, or someone set fire to Li Guang, anyway, we are happy that Li Guang is dead.

But now that there is a week, it is not what we want.

Li Dongyang said: "Whether it is the earth movement or the heavenly fire, it is to save people rather than harm them, even if they are not in words, there are no consequences." But if you talk lightly about the use of troops in the northwest, dare to ask whether this is a tribute or a monk who has brought disaster to the country and the people? ”

"This ......"

Xiao Jing listened.

This hat is a little too buttoned.

Now you civil officials think Li Guang is good again, right? Li Guang is messing around again, only one acre and three points of land in the palace, and Li Guang doesn't interfere much in the affairs of the court, but now Zhang Zhou has directly made preparations for war in the northwest.

Regret it, right?

Xiao Jing said: "Dare to ask Elder Li Ge, if it is just the northwest to send troops to prepare for war in the future, will it violate the defense strategy of the northwest of the Ming Dynasty?" If it is a warning that the Tatars will commit, it is all a fault, so will anyone dare to do such a good thing in the future? ”

Xiao Jing also became serious.

In this matter, no matter who the official supports, Xiao Jing is on Zhang Zhou's side.

Seeing the wind and rudder, Xiao Jing can straighten his buttocks.

Besides, you civil officials don't believe in Zhang Zhou's ability, but I'm sorry, I, Xiao, believe it very much, who let many things be seen with your own eyes?

"The matter of prophecy, although it was played by Mr. Zhang, but the decision is up to His Majesty and the Ministry of War, even Ma Shangshu of the Ministry of War, there is no objection to this, and now it is not said that he wants to send troops to the grassland, but just let Wang Weining go to the northwest in case of accidents, if you come to the elders to refer to this matter, is there a better proposal than this?"

Xiao Jing seemed to be polite to the three pavilion elders, but that didn't mean that he had to keep his voice down.

He represents the emperor, behind the helm of the East Factory, has the authority to investigate hundreds of officials, today he told the emperor that there are civil officials who criticize the military and political affairs of the northwest, and now your civil officials not only do not review, but also continue to be aggressive, the pampered and arrogant person is not Zhang Zhou, but you group of unknown civil officials!

Xie Qian wanted to tease a few words, but was stopped by Liu Jian.

Liu Jian asked: "Then Gonggong Xiao, Your Majesty has orders, even Wang Weining must not send troops easily, right?" ”

"Yes." Xiao Jing's answer was straightforward, "Wang Weining does not have the right to lead troops out of the fortress in the northwest, there is no doubt that there are both lords and ministers as the assistant of the chief military officer, and there is also the moderation of the middle officials of the town guard. ”

"That's good." Liu Jian seems to have compromised on this.

Li Dongyang looked at Liu Jian, as if he was still a little unwilling to compromise like this.

Could it be that we don't care anymore because Xiao Jing said a few heavy words, do we seem too cowardly?

In the end, Liu Jian can represent the cabinet, Xiao Jing saw that Liu Jian understood the righteousness so well, he was relieved, and reminded when he left: "Then bother a few cabinet elders to stabilize the overall situation, there will be a court discussion tomorrow, I hope there will not be any discordant voices in the court." This matter should no longer be publicized to the public...... An eagle has risen on the grassland, and whether it can be hunted before it takes off depends on this battle. ”

"Okay."

Liu Jian knows how to take care of the overall situation in the end.

He can be regarded as packing the ticket in front of Xiao Jing, and this matter will not cause any waves in the court.
