Chapter Seventy-Seven: Tai Chi

Guo Qiu: "The minister is here." ”

"Lord Guo, the two sons of Duke Zhou are under you, I will give you a task, select one person, and leave tomorrow to escort Qin Yue to Jinzhou, there must be no mistake."

"Minister......

Guo Qiu is fake, he is not good at making decisions without authorization, and in private, he secretly glanced at Zhou Dewei.

Qin Chuan noticed: "Guo Qiu, I'm asking you, what do you think Zhou Dewei is doing?" Do you want to see Zhou Dewei's face when you do things for me? ”

"Oh no! Commandment! ”

After Qin Yue's affairs are finished, the next thing is the matter of the prince's younger soldiers.

Qin Chuan stood up, stretched his waist, and held a book in his hand: "Late last night, more than a dozen recitals arrived in Zhongshu Province, and then to the South Study Room. I received these scripts before the early dynasty, can Aiqing guess what they say? ”

There was no one down there to speak.

"Since no one wants to guess, I said it directly, there are a total of sixteen twists and turns, and they are all about the soldiers and horses of the vassal kings outside the city. You all know that none of the vassal kings who came to Beijing are now gone, only their sons and nephews, and 570,000 soldiers and horses. With so many people, they can eat a mountain in one day, and it is impossible to live in the capital for a long time, and the imperial court cannot afford to support them. ”

"Someone suggested that I directly remove the military power of these feudal princes and nephews and return the military power to the military department, and the words in the transcript are all extremely sincere."

Guo Qiu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, said: "Sheng, the ministers and the officials of the Ministry of War agree that the military power of these people should be confiscated, and they must not raise tigers for trouble. ”

Scold!

If Liu Zhongping said this, it proves that he is loyal.

But from the mouth of Zhou Dewei and his party, you don't have to think about it, it must be a treacherous plan.

Qin Chuan looked at the other ministers: "What?" What do you all think so? ”

A white-haired old minister said: "Your Majesty, Lord Guo's words are very reasonable. Without the restraint of the vassal king, these hundreds of thousands of troops became wild horses that were unleashed, and it was difficult to restrain them. The vassal kings have many sons and nephews, and if they have a heart of disobedience, they will ......"

Liu Zhongping shouted and interrupted the old man's words: "Fang Gong's words are bad! Confiscation of military power? This will only anger their rebellion. Everyone can see that these nephews are not good at stubble, they did not help His Majesty when he was in danger yesterday, which shows that there are bad intentions, the more you force them to release their military power, the more they want to rebel! Your Majesty is the first to ascend to the throne, do you have to fight in the same room? What will the world think? How can the capital be defended! ”

"Liu Zhongping, what you said is too radical, how can they oppose? We still have 400,000 troops near Xishan, and this is a deterrent, and they have to consider whether they are suffering from the enemy on their backs. ”

Liu Fang also intervened: "Gong Fang, you have to think before you speak, when Your Majesty was in danger yesterday, what did the 400,000 horses in the military department do?" All of them are on hold! Hum! Counting on them to defend the capital? I think you're an old fool! ”

"Y-you...... You are a second-grade house slave, you dare to reprimand the old man! How did your uncle teach you to be human?! ”

Old man Fang is also a product, and the Ministry of Industry is still in the book.

The admiral of the second grade insulted the first grade Shangshu, which was indeed inappropriate.

"This official does things uprightly, unlike you! Disrespectful for the old! Speculation! Forming a party for personal gain! ”

"You...... You, you, you, you...... You talk nonsense, you slander the old man! How could the old man ever have a party and run a private business, ...... You're going to be angry with the old man! ”

The ministers began to mess up and were about to quarrel.

Qin Chuan plucked his ears: "Okay, this is the court, not the vegetable market, what is the noise?" One by one, they all wear flower feathers, they are all ministers of the court, aren't they afraid of being laughed at? As for the vassal kings, I already have a proposition, just send them back to their original fiefdoms. ”

Repatriation?

Zhou Dewei: "Your Majesty, are you just sending back to your original fiefdom?" These people will be in chaos, after returning to the fiefdom, they will definitely fight for the throne, it is better to stay in the capital, remove their military power, if anyone dares to rebel, the ministers should fight to the death, in order to repay Your Majesty! ”

How righteous Ling Ran said, how impassioned, and even his eyes were full of sincerity.

This false statement is impassioned, but it is also a little moving.

Qin Chuan wanted to laugh: "Duke Zhou is not a prime minister, he is worried about the world, I will listen to your advice now, and at the same time give you an important task, send you to collect their military power, what does Duke Zhou think?" ”

A whop on the head! Dig your own pit and bury yourself!

Zhou Dewei sweated a little on his back: "Minister...... How can the minister be virtuous, it is difficult to take on a heavy responsibility. ”

"You are the prime minister, even you are difficult to take on the important task, who else can use it? Duke Zhou, among the Manchu Dynasty, you are the most virtuous and respected, and your prestige is higher than mine. ”

"Minister...... How dare you! ”

Zhou Dewei knelt on the ground.

Qin Chuan waved his hand and glanced at the ministers: "Who wants to collect the military power of those vassal kings?" Stand up, if you want to go, I will make a decree now and make him a marquis! ”

Damn, go outside the city to collect military power, and if you don't get divided by a knife, your ancestors will burn high incense.

It's clear that he is going to die, who dares to touch this mold.

As soon as Qin Chuan asked, all the ministers lowered their heads, and only Liu Zhongping smiled and said nothing.

He and Qin Chuan are their own people.

"What? No one wants to go? Didn't you say that you would die to repay the king, and I gave you a chance, but you didn't want to go? ”

"Hehehe...... Since no one dared to go, the ploy was nullified. Passing on my will, all the soldiers and horses of the vassal king were sent back to the fiefdom, and the capital did not have so much food to feed them. However, after returning to the fiefdom, there will still be someone to hinder them from fighting, as everyone Aiqing said, they will definitely fight in the same room for the throne. ”

"Therefore, I decided to send one of the most powerful people to the various fiefdoms, and let them take the initiative to hand over the military power in their hands. Remember! This cha must be the most respected person in the court, and I have no date limit. A year, two years, even ten years. ”

"If I fail, I will be guilty."

After speaking, the ministers also heard it clearly.

None of them could hear that Qin Chuan was definitely going to send Zhou Dewei to keep him away from the capital.

As for the reason, as long as you think about it a little, it is a matter of knowing it.

Qin Chuan named: "Ministry of Industry!" Fang Gong, are you willing to go? ”

The old man was so frightened that he trembled: "Your Majesty, the old minister is old, mediocre and incompetent, please ask the emperor to be smart!" ”

"You have gone through three dynasties, and you are the oldest in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, and you should be highly respected."

"Old minister...... The old minister is incompetent, the emperor, the minister's old bones, I'm afraid it won't work on this road, the emperor - the minister recommends a person, and he will be competent. ”
