Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 646
To be honest, although not many things happened in today's court meeting, it is really thrilling. Moreover, the amount of information implied in the various changes in the middle is too large, whether it is a civil servant or a military official, it is bound to be Go back and think about it carefully to determine what to do next.

Of course, the last words of the emperor still made many ministers, especially some honorable families, put their hearts in their stomachs.

Although the emperor still didn't express his position clearly, the last words were intriguing.

In this passage, it is first said that the purpose of rectifying the army is to restore the army, that is, the sentence "If half of the army's strength was obtained at the time of Hongwu, our frontier army will be strong!" '

This is the prerequisite, in other words, it is also the final condition that the military settlement must achieve this time!
Secondly, it is the last sentence, 'Only with the cooperation of civil and military forces can the government be in harmony with the people'.

For most people, this sentence has two meanings.

One is that civil and military forces must compromise with each other to find a balance.

In other words, at least the emperor will not sit back and watch the Ministry of War's "ruthless face" when rectifying the military settlements this time, but will end up fighting in a moderate manner.

The second is that although the emperor will not sit back and watch the military department go too far, how far he can win depends on the ability of the nobles themselves.

However, no matter how far the game between the two sides goes, the goal of rectifying the army must be achieved.

In this way, there are more things that can be done by both civil and military parties.

So in fact, as the saying goes, the unknown is the scariest thing. Once the emperor's attitude is clearly revealed, everyone will have a plan in their hearts when doing things.

At the end of the court meeting, the bosses discussed with each other in twos and threes, and began to go outside, preparing to return to the yamen to handle official business.

However, at this moment, Wynn, the eunuch Bingbi, the supervisor of ceremonies, came over with a group of people and said.

"Your Majesty ordered Yu Qian, Secretary of the Zhaobing Department, Chen Yi, the censor of Zuodu, Jin Lian, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Li Xian, Duke of Fengguo, Fan Guang, uncle of Jing'an, and Yang Hong, Marquis of Changping, to meet you at the Wuying Palace."

Wynn didn't deliberately avoid people when he said these words, so most of the ministers present basically heard them.

Among these six people, Yu Qian, Chen Yi, Li Xian, and Fan Guang are all real members of the Son of Heaven Party, and it is not surprising that they were summoned by the Son of Heaven to discuss government affairs.

Although the memorial to rectify the military colony has been passed, it is only the beginning after all. There are various problems to be solved in the future. The emperor summoned them to discuss it, which is reasonable.

However, Jin Lian and Yang Hong...

The bosses all thought of Ningyuan Hou Renli who had just been thrown into prison, and they couldn't help guessing a little more about the content of this summoning.

However, no matter what the people present think, they must not be neglected when the Son of Heaven summons them.

So, Yu Qian and the others politely bowed their hands towards Wynn, and without much hesitation, they rushed to the direction of the Hall of Martial Arts.

In the Hall of Martial Arts, Wynn led the crowd to the side hall, then cupped his hands and said.

"Your Majesty is changing clothes, please wait a moment, the court meeting is not short today, you must be hungry, our family ordered the palace servants to prepare some snacks and tea, you can come in and make some cushions first, our family will go back to serve first , if there is anything, you can tell the palace servants."

Huai En has not been in the Prison of Rites not long ago, so compared to Cheng Jing, everyone is not familiar with him. I only heard that he is the same as Shu Liang. The big peng that came up.

After getting in touch with him now, the elders feel that this person is quite different from Shu Lianga and other people with sweet tongues and swords.

Nowadays, there are quite a few eunuchs favored by the emperor, but most of them work in the inner palace, and the ones who really deal with the court are actually nothing more than Cheng Jing, Huai En, and Shu Liang.

Naturally, Shu Liang didn't mention it. Some time ago, the glorious deeds of "advising" the Supreme Emperor in Xuanfu City completely made the East Factory admiral and eunuch famous.

Although it is not as hated as Wang Zhen, it is also very consistent with the stereotype of eunuchs that civil servants have always had.

Relying on imperial power, arrogant, unscrupulous, always with a vain smile on his face, just looking at it makes people feel that he is not a good person!
However, no matter how arrogant Shu Liang is, there is one good thing, that is, he obeys the emperor's order. Naturally, because of this, he is very favored by the emperor, and his position is stable and unshakable.

In addition, in many cases, although he behaved perversely, except for the matter of the Supreme Emperor, he was only notorious, and there was no substantive matter that the officials could not tolerate.

Therefore, the elders treat him with a respectful distance, as if he does not exist.

Apart from Shu Liang, relatively speaking, Cheng Jing, who was born as a scholar, gave the courtiers a much better impression.

Although they are both eunuchs, they are experienced and skilled in government affairs, and what is rare is that they have their own principles and persistence, and can often persuade the emperor, which is completely opposite to Shu Liang.

As for Wynn, although he hasn't been in contact for a long time, he feels neither as unscrupulous as Shu Liang, nor as unscrupulous as Cheng Jing.

If you have to give him an impression, then using one word to describe it is comprehensive.

No matter how he treats people, or his words and deeds, he seems to have a kind of temperament, which makes people feel that if things are entrusted to him, they can be reassuring.

Touching the tea cup that was just brought up, it was just warm enough to drink, and even Yu Qian rarely stood up and cupped his hands, which was regarded as a gift to Wynn.

After sending off Wynn, the atmosphere in the hall was rather quiet.

After a busy morning, everyone was indeed hungry, so they picked up the snacks that were brought up and started eating.

After a while, when everyone used some food, another servant came to report, said.

"My lords, Your Majesty has some temporary affairs to deal with. It's about time for tea. Please wait here for a while."

Therefore, everyone present couldn't help but look at each other, and could only sit down and wait.

However, the dim sum was used up, and it would be embarrassing to just sit like this, so, after a moment of silence, Mr. Li broke the silence first, and said.

"Today's court meeting, Lord Hou publicly exposed the crimes of Marquis Ning Yuan. He is truly a brave man. If Lord Hou hadn't stepped forward, the old man would not have believed that someone would dare to assassinate an important official in such a way as to risk the world's dissatisfaction."

However, when the voice fell, the scene not only did not ease up, but became more embarrassing.

"Duke Fengguo is overrated, and this old man is just..."

Yang Hong smiled wryly, looking like he wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he seemed to have some scruples, he hesitated for a long time, and didn't speak for a long time. At the end, he just sighed heavily and smiled wryly again and again.

However, at this time, Jin Lian who was on the side opened his mouth and said.

"Speaking of this matter, don't hide it from Marquis Yang, the old man has something to ask."

Putting his eyes on Yang Hong, Jin Lian continued to ask.

"Marquis Ning Yuan and Yu Shaobao have never had any old grudges. Even if he was involved in the military settlement in Gansu, how big is it and is it worth his risk?"

"It was just before the court discussion. Before Yang Hou mentioned this point, Ren Li was taken into prison by His Majesty. However, since Yang Hou dared to testify against him in the court, he must know his motives. Are you clear? If so, I wonder if Marquis Yang can help this old man!"
