The story of "Cao Di's Polemic", Yan Yuan quickly finished telling.

After that, he combined some of the ways of using soldiers that he learned from Yan Ling and the book of soldiers, and explained it to Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao listened with relish, his eyes were shining, and he had fallen into a fantasy at this time, as if he had come to that battlefield in person, commanding thousands of troops and horses to fight the enemy, what a pleasure!

After listening to it, he sighed from the bottom of his heart:

"The big husband is in the world, when he lifts the three-foot sword, the horizontal sword is immediate, and he will make immortal achievements!"

Yan Yuan looked at Emperor Zhengde's expression, the expectation and yearning came from the depths of his heart, full of true feelings.

I'm afraid it's another martial emperor! He sighed secretly.

And the Eight Tigers beside Zhu Houzhao also looked thoughtful, Yan Yuan noticed that among them, the two of them were the most focused, and they seemed to have really learned something.

Liu Jin, Zhang Yong.

Yan Yuan secretly remembered their names.

After speaking, Zhu Houzhao didn't let him leave, and he must invite him to dinner to express his gratitude, which also made Yan Yuan have a good impression of this emperor in his heart, it can be seen that although this emperor is a little fun, the basic morality in his heart is well cultivated.

And it was not unexpected, not long after, at a court meeting, Zhu Houzhao was collectively sprayed by the ministers.

However, as the keynote speaker of this daily lecture, the ministers seemed to ignore such an act that was in opposition to the civil officials, and Yan Yuan stood firmly in front of the ministers, and no one dared to point the finger at him.

As a prince who has a lot of protégés in the court and is also a strong prince himself, in the case that he does not have too many bad deeds and threats to them, the ministers will naturally not provoke, not to mention that many of them are Yan Jingxiu or even severe protégés, and there are three Yan clansmen among the six departments, and the highest has reached the third grade of the squire, which is a force that should not be underestimated.

However, Emperor Zhengde was miserable and was scolded for a long time.

But no matter what happens to the ministers, they can't help the emperor - they can't depose him and set up another one, right?

Seeing that Zhu Houzhao looked like a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, they took a step back and aimed at a few other people, who were also the ones they hated the most-

It is headed by Liu Jin, the Eight Tigers!

Liu Jian was the first to speak:

"Your Majesty's behavior is a neglect of the way of the saint, and the Holy Lord Mingjun does not do it, but His Majesty reopened the sutra feast at the request of the courtiers, which shows that he still has the heart to learn."

This sentence made Zhu Houzhao's brows stretch slightly.

As everyone knows, Liu Jian's words are the neck-shrinking before the poisonous snake's attack, just to give the emperor a step down!

"It's just that there are people who are trying to lead Your Majesty crookedly, and I don't know what kind of thoughts they have!"

He raised his head and looked at Liu Jin next to Zhu Houzhao with an angry gaze, and in his next sentence, the volume increased sharply, and the sound shook the government and the opposition!

"Liu Jin, Zhang Yong, Gu Dayong, Ma Yongcheng, Gao Feng, Luo Xiang, Wei Bin, Qiu Ju, these eight people are the first disaster of today's incident!"

"Not only have I talked about it every day, but I also often induced Your Majesty to indulge in lustful dogs and horses before, which caused the dynasty to be sluggish, and Your Majesty's studies and great cause of governing the country were also delayed."

"Your Majesty, please kill these eight people, so as to face the wind!"

And with the leader of the cabinet, some other ministers, especially the speech officials, and the courtiers who were also dissatisfied with this matter immediately stood up and denounced Liu Jin and others in unison.

All of a sudden, the crowd was furious.

Liu Jin stood beside Zhu Houzhao, his body trembling like sifting chaff.

But the Eight Tigers are all Zhu Houzhao's personal eunuchs, and they have been following him since he was in the East Palace, and if it is so simple to kill them, Zhu Houzhao is also not happy.

Emperor Zhengde's face gathered a haze again, and he waved his hand:

"This matter will be postponed and then discussed, and the court will be withdrawn!"

……

"What do you think of today's events?"

Yan Yuan hadn't returned home yet, Yan Ling had already gotten the news of today's court meeting through the guards and eunuchs in the court, he found Yan Yuan and asked.

As a traverser, Yan Ling certainly knows what will happen next, although some changes have taken place now because of Yan's chaos, but Yan Ling believes that this will not affect the overall development trend.

If Yan Yuan didn't see it, he would have to mention him.

Yan Yuan thought for a moment and replied:

"Zu, I remember that when Wang Zhi was in trouble, the ministers thought about impeachment, but Uncle Jingxiu said at the time:"

"'As long as Wang Zhi does not lose His Majesty's favor for a day, then the West Factory will not fall for a day! Your impeachment is useless. ’”

"Of course, Your Majesty does not have the authority, skill, and control of the court that Emperor Xianzong had at the beginning, but even so, it is impossible for this part of the courtiers to compromise and kill his favorite Eight Tigers by relying on the current part of the courtiers alone."

"So I think that this time the attack of the ministers will end in nothing."

"And this young genius, I'm afraid it's not as simple as rumored."

"It is rumored in the market and court that although the first emperor is virtuous, he is quite negligent about His Majesty's teachings, so His Majesty has been stubborn since he was a child, and he doesn't like to read, and after he ascends the throne, he has to have fun and ignore the government, just like Sui Yang at the beginning."

"When I saw them a few days ago, I just thought they were very wrong!"

"Your Majesty is fun, but some of his actions are not as simple as they seem!"

"I think Your Majesty favors the Eight Tigers, I'm afraid there are other reasons. At the end of Xianzong, Liang Guogong's right to speak in the court has been decreasing, and in the period of filial piety, it fell to the bottom, and even the military power was almost taken away. ”

"Your Majesty, I don't want to see this situation continue."

"If I'm not mistaken, this impeachment will end in a crushing defeat for the ministers, and the Eight Tigers will get a certain amount of power, as a sharp blade for His Majesty to strike at civilian officials, becoming a pole of balance."

"So, eunuch and civil official, which side are you on?" Yan Ling nodded, relieved by Yan Yuan's insight into the current situation. He asked, smiling.

If you want to kill Liu Jin, relying on the current courtiers in the court alone is of course not enough to make the emperor compromise.

But if there is the addition of the nobles, and the officials who are attached to Chen Guogong also join, it will form a situation where the entire court is putting pressure on the little emperor, and the political and military will exert force at the same time, which will indeed shake the authority of the emperor, and it is not good to say that the Eight Tigers will really be beheaded.

The British Gong Zhang Mao and the civil officials got closer, and they had already stood in line at this time, but more nobles were focused on Yan Yuan's body.

After all, Chen Guogong, as the most powerful person among the nobles, has always been an example for the nobles, and the counterattack against the civilian clique led by Yan Yuan in the year of Hongzhi has confirmed his status as a "spiritual leader".

Therefore, at this time, the choice of Yan Yuan, the contemporary Chen Guogong, is particularly important.

His answer will determine the trend of the court in the future.

Yan Yuan blurted out without thinking:

"I'm on the Emperor's side."

The two looked at each other, and then laughed in unison!

That's how it should be.
