Turpan and Warat jointly attacked the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty was defeated and retreated. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info This happened to happen in the days when Jiang Xia was away.

Then Jiang Xia returned to Jingshi, and the next day he led all the staff of the Lecture Martial Arts Hall that he had personally cultivated to go out in person.

Since Jiang Xia just arrived in Zhongwei, Ningxia, the first good news was soon transmitted back to Beijing.

Then the tide of the battle took a shocking turn, Jiang Xia stabilized the situation, and then killed the enemy all the way.

From this series of events, the civil and military forces of the Ming and Manchu dynasties saw the ability and importance of Jiangxia. At the same time, it can also be seen that the Ming Dynasty under the new monarch and young lord is extremely in need of a person who is in the prime of life, capable, courageous, and prestigious to control the government.

Therefore, when Yang Tinghe said that Jiang Xia was canonized, although the Manchu civil and military forces were surprised, no one questioned or objected to it.

At this point, it is not okay for Jiangxia not to accept the order, because not accepting the order is tantamount to resisting the order and not complying with the order.

Jiang Xia sighed slightly in his heart, stretched out his hands to receive the holy decree, and said loudly: "Minister Jiangxia received the decree, thank the emperor for his gift, may my emperor live long live." ”

"Ai Qing is flat. Zhu Zaijiang said.

"Your Majesty, Emperor. Jiang Xia stood up and just turned to face the ministers.

Yang Tinghe suddenly walked in front of Jiang Xia, led the civil and military officials to bow to Jiang Xia and said, "See Lord Zaizhi!"

Jiang Xia nodded and said, "Colleagues, just be polite and be polite." ”

Although the dynasties before the Ming Dynasty did not have a "Zaizhi", according to the ancient rites. Zai Zhi is the head of the hundred officials, so the hundred officials saluting Jiang Xia are not considered arrogance.

After completing the handover of the tiger talisman and canonizing Jiangxia, the hundred officials left the Taihe Palace.

Jiang Xia held the holy decree in his hand, and after leaving the palace, he first went back to Xiaoyao Villa to change his clothes, and then he didn't stay warm with his wife, but called Han Mufeng and rushed to Li Dongyang's mansion in a carriage.

The carriage arrived at the door of Li Dongyang's mansion, and Jiang Xia got out of the carriage.

But he didn't go in for the first time, but looked at the holy decree in his hand, and then looked at the Li Mansion again, and the expression on his face was a little complicated.

After sighing, Jiang Xia walked to the gate of the Li Mansion. There was a knock on the door, and the porter opened it.

Seeing that it was Jiang Xia, the concierge didn't need to report it directly, and let Jiang Xia and Han Mufeng into the house.

After Jiang Xia stepped into the threshold, he asked the porter, "Where is my master?"

"The old man was a little unwell, so he rested in the room. ”

Hearing that Li Dongyang was unwell, Jiang Xia was a little worried, he nodded, and immediately rushed to Li Dongyang's bedroom.

When he arrived at the door of Li Dongyang's bedroom, Jiang Xia knocked on the door and said, "Master, I am Jiang Xia." ”

"Come in. Li Dongyang's voice came out a little weakly.

Jiang Xia pushed open the door and walked in, then closed the door with his backhand.

Li Dongyang was leaning on the bed at the moment, raising his eyes to look at Jiang Xia. He said, "It is good to hear that you have returned in triumph and are loved by all the people...... I am happy for you as a teacher. ”

Jiang Xia saw that Li Dongyang was smiling sincerely, and the weak expression on his face did not seem to be fake, but he was a little ashamed in his heart.

In view of the fact that when he was outside the city now, someone suddenly provoked and shouted "Long live Mrs. Jiang".

The sensitive Jiang Xia suddenly reacted, and the matter of slaughtering might be a conspiracy. The purpose is very simple, that is, to kill him.

Killing can be said to be a very simple, but also very crude and practical strategy.

It's as if we want to kill a person, first of all, we set that person up as a moral model, and make people feel as if their words and deeds are so perfect that they have no flaws.

In the end, this person will either collapse because he is too tired, or he will expose his shortcomings and be despised. In contrast, there is a strong contrast between the previous worship and the subsequent contempt, and the person who is praised and killed is likely to have a psychological breakdown and be killed.

Since it was Li Dongyang who proposed Jiang Xia to be the ruler before, Jiang Xia even naturally doubted whether Li Dongyang didn't want to be so kind in his previous impression.

Even he recalled that when he first came into contact with Li Dongyang, Li Dongyang was ready to kill himself. It was Zhu Houzhao who strongly protected himself after that, so he failed to kill himself.

Therefore, Jiang Xia's heart that doubted everything was logical, and it was natural to suspect his master, Li Dongyang.

But now that he saw Li Dongyang's sick face, Jiang Xia's suspicion of him suddenly disappeared, and instead he secretly scolded that he would never be able to get rid of his suspiciousness, and he was so mad that even his master doubted it.

Jiang Xia asked Li Dongyang with concern: "Master, how do you feel?" Do you want me to ask Uncle Yi to help you diagnose?"

"No need. Li Dongyang shook his head, "Being a teacher is just an occasional cold, and the doctor has already written a prescription for me." After a while, I asked Jun Yang to grab two sticks of medicine according to the prescription, and I believe that he will be cured soon. When people get old, their bodies are susceptible to diseases, which is a common thing, and you don't have to worry too much. ”

"Yes. Jiang Xia responded.

Li Dongyang asked: "Now that you have returned triumphantly, has Yang Tinghe kept his promise and read the holy decree to let you ascend to the throne?"

As soon as Jiang Xia heard that Li Dongyang took the initiative to mention the matter of "Zaizhi", he couldn't help but glance at Li Dongyang with a strange look, but then his eyes returned to normal, nodded and said: "Yang Tinghe has already read the holy decree in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, and the holy purpose is here." ”

Jiang Xia raised the holy decree in his hand.

Li Dongyang nodded, took a slight breath and sighed, "Jiang Xia, do you know why Yang Tinghe agreed to your ascension to the throne?"

Jiang Xia's brows furrowed silently, and he replied, "I don't know, and I ask the master to make it clear." ”

"Kill!" Li Dongyang spit out these two words very dryly.

Jiang Xia raised his eyebrows and didn't say anything. Li Dongyang continued: "You are still young, and you have a close relationship with the emperor. In addition, he has strong ability and strong personality.

Yang Tinghe fought with you, and most of them were defeated. If this goes on for a long time, your foundation in the court will surely become stronger and stronger, and he will become weaker and weaker. Under the advantages of one and the other, he can only make this decision. ”

"There are three benefits to killing you. First, it can make you feel jealous, but you don't dare to act as casually as before, and you can restrict yourself everywhere. Second, it can create a gap between the relationship between the emperor and you after the emperor is in power in the future, so that the emperor is afraid of your high achievements. Thirdly, you don't dare to retaliate against him too much, because then you will fall into the name of dictatorship. ”

Jiang Xia nodded, the three points that Li Dongyang said, in fact, Jiang Xia was very clear.

In the end, Jiang Xia couldn't help but ask: "Master, since there are so many disadvantages, why did you ...... in the first place?"

Jiang Xia didn't finish speaking, although the tone was an inquiring tone, but there was already a hint of questioning in his words.

Li Dongyang smiled with some difficulty and said, "My apprentice, are you really stupid?"

Jiang Xia was slightly stunned, this time he was really confused. He asked, "Master, I don't know what you mean by that." ”

Li Dongyang smiled and said: "You Ren Zai Zhi is the teacher's proposal, and the teacher calculated that Yang Tinghe will take advantage of the situation, so as to kill you." But the teacher still proposes this, why?"

"Why?" Jiang Xia couldn't help but ask, since he received this canonization decree, he only thought about the disadvantages all the way, and basically didn't think of the benefits.

Especially in the future, he doesn't know how to get along with Zhu Zaijiang. After all, Zhu Zaijiang is the emperor, if it is said that as an emperor, he is not afraid of a courtier who holds the two major powers of political affairs and military affairs, it is simply impossible.

Don't say that he is just his grandfather, even if it is his own father, he will definitely be jealous.

Why is this so? Who does not know that the only person who controls the political and military affairs of a country has always been the emperor. Now that Jiang Xia has two powers, what is the difference between him and the emperor?

Li Dongyang smiled and said, "As a teacher, I didn't expect that you haven't figured it out yet." I asked you for the teacher, you were entrusted by the emperor to be alone, and you served as a master and took care of your life, because of glory and wealth, and your authority was monstrous. Or is it to let the emperor smoothly pro-government, and there is a rich and powerful Ming Dynasty when he is pro-government?"

"The latter, of course. Jiangxia said.

Li Dongyang nodded, "This is the crux of the problem. Yang Tinghe thinks that what you want is monstrous power, so he wants to kill you. And what you want is to make Daming rich and strong, so it makes no sense to kill you. ”

"At this moment, you are in charge of political affairs and military affairs. No one in the world is above you, you will no longer have any constraints, and you will reorganize the Ming Dynasty as you want.

Whether it is the rule of officials, people's livelihood, or military affairs, you can act according to your own will and ideas.

As a teacher, I believe that with your ability and foresight, the Ming Dynasty will be greatly enriched and strengthened by you. When the emperor is in charge in the future, if he can tolerate you, you will return to him and do your best to assist.

If he can't tolerate you, the big deal is to resign and go into hiding, and then be at ease. What does it affect you? What do you want? The first emperor is smoothly pro-government, and the second is rich and strong.

You have achieved both goals, you can continue to assist the government when you advance, and you can enjoy the world when you retreat, why not?"

Li Dongyang's words completely stunned Jiang Xia, Jiang Xia had a great feeling in his heart at the moment, what he said was so reasonable, I was speechless.

To be honest, Li Dongyang's words really hit the most real place in Jiang Xia's heart.

Just like what he once said to Xue Ruqin, he also hopes that he can resign and retire as soon as possible, and leave this disturbing and deceitful officialdom.

He is not lacking in glory and wealth, and the reason why he is doing his best now and dealing with the Ming Dynasty politics with all his might is nothing more than because of Zhu Houzhao's deathbed.

After Li Dongyang's analysis, Jiang Xia really felt that it was actually a good thing that he was appointed as the ruler.

As Li Dongyang said, take advantage of the days when he is in power to vigorously reform the Ming Dynasty. After Zhu Zaijiang ascended the throne, he could tolerate himself, and he would assist him for a few more years. He can't tolerate it, the big deal is to leave, and he finally lives up to Zhu Houzhao's dying feelings.

Jiang Xia looked ashamed and solemn, got up and bowed deeply to Li Dongyang and said, "What the master taught is that the apprentice is ashamed ......" r1058
