Natsuhara Yoshi?

Head of the Household Department?

Zhu Yunwen was very disappointed.

Even the ministers he relied on the most had no good ideas.

What kind of tricks can you offer as a household manager?

What else is "a soldier without a knife to quell trouble, and a soldier who surrenders without a fight"!

It's so nice, it's just grandstanding!

The ministers stared at Xia Yuanji with unkind eyes, but he didn't realize it, and still spoke loudly without changing his face.

"Although Zhu Di, the king of Yan, is brave and good at fighting, although most of the traitors in the Yan army are brave warriors, the Yan army has few soldiers and few lands after all!"

"And the war broke out suddenly, the grain and grass of the Yan army will become the biggest problem, the imperial army only needs to trap Zhu Di's rebels in the siege of Yan and not fight, frustrate its sharp spirit and consume its energy, and when his grain and grass financial resources are exhausted, then it will be self-defeating!"

"And the imperial court only needs to hoard grain and grass at this time, gather a large army, go to Beiping to set up a heavy siege, and wait until Zhu Di, the king of Yan, runs out of grain and grass and becomes a trapped beast, whether it is a prisoner or a prisoner is between the emperor's thoughts!"

"In this way, you can avoid sword soldiers, and you can also calm the chaos and surrender the soldiers without a fight!"

When Zhu Yunwen heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

However, before he could speak, Qi Tai suddenly scolded: "It's just nonsense!"

His sudden voice directly startled Zhu Yunwen, and then looked at Qi Tai with a little dissatisfaction.

Qi Tai was indifferent to this, and continued to say loudly: "Zhu Di, the king of Yan, killed the officials of the imperial court and openly raised troops to rebel!"

"This traitor has raised only tens of thousands of troops, and he has already conquered several cities one after another, if he continues to connive, then won't he want to harm half of the Ming Dynasty?"

"And if the imperial court does not send troops to suppress it, but sits back and watches it slowly grow, then where is the prestige of the imperial court? How should people in the world view the emperor? ”

"I'm afraid that people in the world will follow suit at that time, especially other vassal kings other than Yan King Zhu Di, and they will follow the example of Yan King Zhu Di one by one to raise troops, and I am afraid that the world will be in chaos at that time, Your Majesty!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Yunwen's face changed dramatically in an instant.

Qi Tai's remarks are not unreasonable, if the imperial court can't even handle a Yan King Zhu Di, then the other vassal kings will naturally be ready to move and raise troops to make trouble!

Therefore, the imperial court must not only send troops, but also quickly send troops to exterminate the rebels of King Yan with the power of thunder, and kill chickens and monkeys to set an example, so as to deter those with bad intentions!

Zhu Yunwen took a deep breath and was about to give an order.

However, Xia Yuanji spoke again and threw out a terrifying suggestion.

"Your Majesty, the courage of Zhu Di, the king of Yan, is no less than that of Xu Da Chang Yuchun and other founding generals, especially Zhu Di is Xu Da's son-in-law, who followed Xu Da's Northern Expedition to Mengyuan in his early years, which can be said to have inherited Xu Da's mantle."

"In addition, most of the Yan troops under the command of Zhu Di, the king of Yan, are the border troops of the northern frontier, and they are all brave and good warriors,"

"On the other hand, the generals of the imperial court who can recruit and fight well have already died one after another in the years of the first emperor, so that the imperial court is in a hurry now, but it has fallen into an embarrassing situation where there are no generals available."

As soon as Xia Yuanji's words fell, Qi Tai spoke again.

"Your Majesty, please restore the punishment of Emperor Taizu Gao's court staff!"

"This Xia Yuan Ji thief has the audacity to criticize the first emperor, and he will be killed with a cane immediately!"

Qi Tai was really ruthless, he had already vaguely guessed Xia Yuanji's thoughts, so without waiting for Xia Yuanji to finish speaking, he first put a charge of "criticizing the first emperor", and wanted to kill him directly!

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty looked at each other and did not say a word.

After all, Xia Yuanji was indeed wrong!

Why is there no general available to the imperial court now?

It's not because Emperor Taizu Gao was brutal and unkind, setting off bloody cases one after another, and slaughtering all the heroes and generals!

Everyone knows about it, but you can't say it!

Zhu Yunwen's face sank, and he waved his hand impatiently.

"Qi Aiqing, don't be excited, let Xia Yuanji finish his words!"

Hearing this, Qi Tai glanced at Xia Yuanji indignantly.

The latter remained unmoved and continued to speak impassionedly.

"Therefore, the minister thinks that even if the imperial army exterminates the traitors of the Yan army, it will inevitably be greatly damaged!"

"What's more, maybe the imperial army can't annihilate the Yan army in one fell swoop, and the other vassal kings will also wait for the opportunity to make trouble, as well as the remnants of the Yuan who retreated to Mobei, seeing the imperial army fighting fiercely with the Yan army traitors, will they be indifferent?"

"Once these thieves take the opportunity to make trouble, it will only lead to the court everywhere to deal with the enemy, the war continues, the people of the world will suffer from the war again, then only the treasury will be empty, money and food will be exhausted, the minister is worried that at that time the court will fall into the quagmire of war, it will only fall deeper and deeper, resulting in chaos in the world, and the ancestral foundation will be destroyed in one fell swoop!"

Zhu Yunwen's face turned cold, and his eyes stared at Xia Yuanji coldly.

"So what?"

"What do you want to say?"

In the face of the emperor's indifferent attitude, Xia Yuanji said bitterly: "The minister implores the emperor to abolish the national policy of cutting feudal domains!"

"The root cause of Zhu Di's rebellion is to cut the domain, and the policy of cutting the domain makes everyone in danger to the vassal king, and the people of the government and the opposition are scattered, making the court the target of everyone!"

"Now that Zhu Di, the king of Yan, has openly raised troops to rebel, the rest of the vassal kings will only be ready to move, if the court does not take a pacification strategy, then they will definitely deviate from the court, and before the war starts, the court will lose the barrier of the kings, but it will become a constraint for the court!"

Therefore, the minister thought that the most important thing for the court at the moment was not to gather a large army to exterminate King Yan, but to abolish the national policy of cutting the domain, which could eliminate the truth that Zhu Di raised troops because of the reduction of the domain, and showed that he was against the world; Second, it can collect the hearts of the kings and the people of the world, successfully appease the vassal kings, and obtain strong reinforcements for the imperial court! ”

"If the imperial court abolishes the national policy of cutting feudal domains, but Zhu Di still raises troops to rebel, then he is an out-and-out chaotic minister and thief, and there is no excuse or reason, after the people of the world see his true face, they will naturally not be deceived again, and the kings will not collude with him and be infamous as a national thief and traitor!"

Xia Yuanji's words were impassioned and his blood boiled.

However, when he noticed Zhu Yunwen's expression, his heart sank to the bottom!

I saw that His Majesty the Emperor was staring at Xia Yuanji with an iron face at the moment, and his cold eyes made people shudder!

"Natsuhara-yoshi!"

"You're so daring!"

Zhu Yunwen shouted suddenly, and Xia Yuanji fell to his knees in response.

"Yan King Zhu Di has long been anti-voluntary, no matter whether I cut the domain or not, he Zhu Di will rebel sooner or later!"

"Now that Zhu Di has killed the officials of the imperial court and openly raised troops to rebel, the wolf's ambition is clearly revealed!"

"You, Xia Yuanji, as an official of the court, even dare to ask me to abolish the national policy of cutting the feudal domain and show favor to this thief?"

"It just doesn't make sense!"

Xia Yuanji's face was full of anxiety, and he spoke again: "Your Majesty, if you don't stop cutting the domain, the world will be in chaos, Your Majesty!"

"Come on, drag him out of the city and put him in prison!"

Zhu Yunwen suddenly became angry when he heard this, and scolded sharply.

Xia Yuanji looked at him in disbelief, and it was difficult to accept it for a while.

Why does His Majesty the Emperor, who is like a stream, not understand his painstaking efforts?

Cutting the feudal domain, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, has already been cut back, and he still doesn't know how to repent!

Is it so difficult to abolish the policy of reducing feudal domains?

Natsuhara was dragged down.

dismissed from office and sent to prison, his career is over.

Seeing this, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.

Just like the chief secretary of the Criminal Department, why bother?

The emperor's heart to cut the feudal domain is as solid as a rock, how can he be dispelled because of what you say?

Zhu Yunwen glanced at the ministers with cold eyes, and ordered in a cold voice.

"With Changxing Marquis Geng Bingwen as the general of the conquest, he immediately hung the seal and went to Beiping to exterminate the rebel Zhu Di!"
