"Second, you picked quarrels and provoked trouble, and beat the cadets of the Jinling Military Academy for no reason."

Zhu Yunxi counted them one by one.

Chang Mao hung his head.

He has nothing to say about this.

Rushing into the barracks to beat people is unjustifiable in any case.

It's just that Chang Mao relied on his identity as Zheng Guogong before, a few big-headed soldiers, and he fought and fought, who would care about that?

"Third, after you were restrained by Zheng He, you didn't repent, but the wicked people sued first, and they took you according to the law to stop the criminals."

"Fourth, the Jinling Military Academy is a new army cultivated by solitary painstaking efforts, and its training methods, army conditions, equipment, personnel, and weapons are all top-secret military information."

"I worked hard and worked hard, just to be a great soldier."

"But you are in the court, you don't ask, and you make the top secret military information public, what crime should you be guilty of?"

Rumble!

In Chang Mao's mind, it was as if a firecracker had exploded.

The military situation of the Jinling Military Academy is a top-secret military situation?

Why?

Why?

Just because they deviated from the norm and didn't even train how to set up the army?

I don't learn bows and arrows, I don't learn knives and spears, I don't wear armor, so it's top secret?

Chang Mao raised his head and looked at Zhu Yunxi, but he could only lower his head again.

What is top-secret military information is really up to the commander-in-chief of the first army to decide.

And the commander of the Jinling Military Academy is Zhu Yunxi, the emperor's grandson.

He said it was top-secret military intelligence, and it wasn't either.

In this way, Chang Mao's crime can be regarded as really confirmed.

Although the first three articles are ironclad sins, according to the law, they are also true.

But in this era, it is more about heavenly principles and human feelings, rather than laws.

In terms of human affection, with Chang Mao's status and status, the first three are not a big crime.

He just offended His Royal Highness Taisun, so he was used to play on the topic and was severely punished.

This is what most officials in the DPRK and China think in their hearts, but they dare not show it.

But when top-secret military information is leaked, the nature of the matter has completely changed.

Even if Chang Mao is a meritorious hero, he has the title of Duke Zheng Guo, and he is also a general in command of the army, and his status is extremely high, and he can leak top-secret military information, so he must be severely punished.

It's just that what His Royal Highness Taisun said can really be regarded as top-secret military information?

The officials couldn't help but be surprised.

Could it be that he did not give armor, did not practice bow and arrow, and did not practice swords and guns, but it was intentional.

The new army is a "secret army" trained by His Royal Highness Taisun, and it has "strange uses"?

But what's the use?

Is it through the power of ghosts and gods?

Although Zi Bu is silent and strange and confused, most of the Confucian scholars also take this as a warning.

But this does not mean that they do not believe in ghosts, ignore God, or worship Buddha.

On the contrary, sacrifice is a major event of the state.

It's not just about worshipping the heavens, worshipping the ancestors.

Even when there is a drought, it is also very solemn to worship the dragon king and ask for rain.

It is even more taboo about what kind of witchcraft and the art of disgust with victory.

Since the new army can't take it with common sense, it's no wonder that they think about ghosts and gods.

Only in this way can we explain why the training and training of the new army are so strange and unreasonable.

But they still feel that it is wrong, how can they rely on the "ghost and god technique" to march and fight?

That's ridiculous, isn't it?

But if not, then what?

Is it really His Royal Highness Taisun who is willful and nonsense, just for fun?

It doesn't seem right.

Although His Royal Highness Taisun is young, since he opened the Jinling Military Academy, although he has personally served as the mountain chief, and all the recruits are his disciples, he seems to rarely go to the school.

In fact, the person in charge of affairs is Zheng He.

If he's just here to play, to have fun, then he should go every day.

Excluding this, and thinking of Zhu Yunxi's wisdom and strategy, talent and means, I really began to wonder if it was a "strange soldier".

But what's going on inside?

Whether it is a civilian official or a military general, do you want to ask for clarification?

But Zhu Yunxi has already said that this is a top-secret military situation!

Leaking is a big sin.

Well, what do you have to ask?

While the officials were thinking about it, Zhu Yunxi spoke again.

"Chang Mao leaked top-secret military information and disturbed the court, and his father was the king of Kaitian, who had made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty, and he couldn't bear to commit a serious crime to his son."

"But military law is like a mountain, and national law is unforgiving. If you are lonely and conniving, how can you quit for future generations? ”

"Take away the title of Duke Zheng Guo and demote him to Marquis Zheng Guo."

"I hope you will keep this matter in mind in the future, take it as a warning, and don't do it again."

While!

While!

While!

Above the bell tower of the palace, there were bursts of bells.

Before you know it, an hour has passed.

Chang Mao's face was bloodless, and the look on his face was more ugly than being stabbed a few times.

The Duke and the Marquis, although only one level apart.

But this level is a world of difference.

I don't know how many military merits I have to make, how many times I have been born and died, before I can earn it.

This is what my father fought all his life and exchanged for his life.

Say take it?

Chang Mao's heart was dripping blood, and it hurt ten times more than the board just now.

But as soon as he looked up and saw Zhu Yunxi above, he suddenly felt a tightness in his heart, and hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness Taisun Xie, Chang Mao will definitely remember today's events in the future and change his past." ”

In the court, the expressions of all the officials were shocked and frightened.

Some people were about to come out to admonish, but they were stopped by the people next to them with their eyes.

Grace is from above.

Whether it is knighted or knighted, it is not a trivial matter.

It's even more serious than killing Chang Mao.

After all, titles can be hereditary.

Chang Mao's title was also inherited from Chang Yuchun.

Even if Chang Mao was killed on the spot, it would not affect his title and pass it on to the next generation.

In the future, the Chang family will still be dukes.

But when Zhu Yunxi ordered the demotion of the knighthood, it was completely different.

The status of the entire Chang family has been weakened by one level.

Compared to killing Chang Mao, this punishment is much more severe.

In the eyes of many officials, although His Royal Highness Taisun is the supervisor of the country and the acting agent of the country, such an important matter should also be initiated by His Majesty and decided by His Majesty.

But now, looking at the murderous Zhu Yunxi above, in the end, everyone consciously closed their mouths.

This is Will!

By beating Chang Mao, Zhu Yunxi's might finally stood up!

The officials of the Manchu Dynasty did not dare to despise it anymore.

He nodded slightly and said, "The Jinling Military Academy's training of new troops is to train an unprecedented "heavenly soldier" for the great gods. ”

"Before this new army goes to the battlefield, I don't want the news of the new army to leak out."

"Outsiders are not allowed to hear about the court discussions."

"Today's dynasty, all ministries, military generals and nobles, as well as many officials in Jinling, are here."

"Discussions in the court, outsiders are not allowed to hear about it."

"If there is a leak, no matter what kind of identity it is, the law of the Ming Dynasty is above, and it will be severely punished."

So far, Zhu Yunxi can only come up with this method.

Confidentiality Act.

It is very difficult for both officials and ordinary people to accept an army without armor, swords, bows and arrows in a short period of time.

If the outside world spreads the Jinling Military Academy everywhere, and if it does not do its job properly, and the soldiers do not look like soldiers, and they will not look like generals, then the training of the new army will undoubtedly be met with tremendous resistance.

Public opinion is together, and the government and the opposition are attacking in unison.

Even if he is the grandson and the prince, it is difficult to force it.

Only the banner of "top-secret military information" was sacrificed, and the court officials were not allowed to leak it.

In fact, it is obviously impossible not to leak it.

There are hundreds of officials in the court today, and it is not realistic to keep all of them strictly secret.

Not to mention, the Jinling Military Academy is in the city, so many students, how can it be possible if they want to keep it completely secret?

However, as long as the banner of secrecy is raised, even if the officials know, because of secrecy, they cannot intervene, seek verification, or question.

Otherwise, a sentence of secret military information, which outsiders must not hear, will be able to block him back.

Not to mention the people outside.

Even if you know, if anyone doubts it, then you must first ask where you secretly found out about the "top secret military information".

Is it a treacherous enemy country, or someone with ulterior motives?

In this way, the pressure of public opinion is naturally impossible to talk about.

Even if everyone thinks that there is something wrong with the Jinling Military Academy, but it involves military top secrets, no one dares to stand up and accuse.

When it comes to fighting on the battlefield in the future, the new army will prove its ability, and all difficulties will naturally be solved.

A very simple move can not only justifiably cure Chang Mao's serious crime, establish his authority, but also solve the pressure faced by the new army.

"The lower officials obey the order and never leak secrets."

All the officials saluted at the same time.

However, their curiosity about the new army was even more superior.

Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, do you still have something to play?" ”

"His Royal Highness."

Liu Sanwu stood up and bowed.

"Your Majesty is now sixty-four years old, and he is riddled with many diseases, and although he has been treated by imperial medicine, he will never be the same as he was when he was young."

"His Royal Highness Taisun is extremely smart, but he is still young, and all kinds of affairs are complicated and chaotic, and it is difficult to take care of them."

In the past, His Majesty had a saying, "The lord of the people rules the world with one body, and he cannot be without auxiliary ministers." ”

"Recently, the courtiers discussed and asked the imperial court to set up an advisory office, put the minister of counsel, and help His Royal Highness the grandson to act as the national government."

As soon as these words came out, the court instantly froze, and there was no sound for half a minute.

Everyone knows that today's highlight is finally the gong!
