Jingming

Chapter 120 Leading the decree, receiving the sword

whose land?The hometown of Ming Dynasty.

Whose fault is it for being incompetent?It can't be blamed on Zhu Houcong's head.

Yang Tinghe replied calmly: "Whoever is at fault, we should discuss it after we get rid of the trouble. The most urgent thing is that Wang Hong's defeat in the battle is not enough to convince the public. The two provinces and Guangxi may have already cooperated with the enemy. I think the words of Shi University scholar are the best policy and can be sent..."

"Mr. Yang Ge said just now that Wang Hung was guilty, and he should reprimand the Guangdong region for reorganizing the generals, defeating the enemy and restoring the order." Zhu Houcong looked at him and interrupted again "rudely".

The internal secretary didn't speak, but the emperor kept it in mind.

"...If the imperial court wins the trust of Wang Hung's memorial, it is afraid that there will be chaos in Guangdong and Guangxi. If there is no trouble, the imperial envoy will only check whether Wang Hung's memorial is true, and order the supervisor to fight again. Franji barbarians Guangdong province alone is enough to get rid of the trouble, and since there are imperial envoys, Guangdong and Guangxi will no longer be negligent.”

"Wang Shouren, you know the soldiers, what do you think?" Zhu Houcong looked at him.

The national policy meeting is not something that the cabinet ministers decide to do, and everyone is already familiar with this.

This is the first frontier war that Xinjun faces, and many people can understand his sensitivity and importance.

Although what everyone is thinking in their minds is not whether the Franklin can win, but Wang Hong does not match what the members of the two major groups have played. It is Chen Jin and Guo Xun that the emperor just pointed out.

Wang Shouren met the emperor's gaze and replied truthfully: "When I was in Jiangxi to quell the chaos, I heard that the traitor Jiang Bin led the Frangji barbarians to the front of the emperor. I searched and read the classics, but I didn't know about him or his country. Your Majesty A few days ago, an edict was issued to Guangdong and Guangxi to drive away the Frangji people. I paid attention to the matter. I know that since Wang Hung went to Guangdong in the sixth year of Zhengde, he has been punished for ten years. It is quite arrogant for barbarians not to worship officials when they see them."

Zhu Houcong looked at him all the time, and Wang Shouren finally concluded: "Since I have seen the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, I have something to rely on when I am proud. Wang Hung has patrolled the sea for a long time, and said that Frang's machine, men and ships are strong and powerful, and the prince said that he led more than [-] warships. Attacking the small island is invincible. The minister thinks that the enemy's situation is unknown, and if he recklessly fights again, he may lose our prestige."

"Wang Shilang, who drove the bandits from a small country in Guangdong, knows how to be so cautious?" Mao Ji said.

"I know the soldiers but not the enemy, so I dare not act recklessly." Wang Shouren replied to Zhu Houcong.

Yang Shen curled his lips: He did not forget to sell his knowledge of the unity of knowledge and action at the national policy meeting.

"Does Yang Ge know Frangji? Where is his country? What are its scenery?" Zhu Houcong asked Yang Tinghe as if asking for advice.

"Last year, the head of the Department of Rituals said that the country is the ancient Sanfo Qi, which is located in the south of Nanyang Manlajia. In the sixth year of Zhengde, the Frangji invaded Manlajia and wanted to use the name of Manlajia to pay tribute to the Celestial Dynasty. Guangdong City Bosi knew his treacherous schemes, and Manajia also asked the imperial court to send troops to help him drive away the Frangji people. At that time, the imperial court was distracted and powerless..."

Yang Tinghe talked confidently, and it sounded like his views were much more reliable than Wang Shouren's.

Anyway, it's just one of the Nanyang group of barbarians.

Zhu Houcong didn't blame him.

Yang Tinghe is a Qingliu who has never been to the place to work hard. From the review of the Imperial Academy, he became a lecturer and became the emperor's teacher.

It is normal for him to get information from reports from various places in Ming Dynasty.

Here he proficiently stated his detailed knowledge of Franji. Whether it was prepared in advance or on the spot, his memory was at least very good.

Zhu Houcong just waited for him to say these words, and then turned to look at Huang Jin: "Has it been recorded?"

Yang Tinghe was suddenly in shock, this feeling seemed familiar.

Huang Jingong replied: "Return to Your Majesty, everything has been recorded."

Zhu Houcong nodded: "Knowing what you know is knowing what you don't know, and knowing what you don't know. I learned a lot today."

Yang Tinghe didn't think it was a compliment, and the emperor didn't seem to order Huang Jin to record some anecdotes.

At this moment, Zhang Zuo rushed over again: "Your Majesty, urgently report from Guangdong that the Franjigon mission has been captured and will be escorted to Beijing today."

Zhu Houcong nodded: "Bring it to me to see."

There was a brief silence in the Central Palace, and Zhu Houcong put it aside after reading it: "Very well, the envoy of Frangji was also captured alive. When he arrives in Beijing, the details of Frangji will naturally be found out. I have always been cautious, The enemy's situation is unknown. Although Guangdong is rich, soldiers should not sacrifice their lives needlessly. The Frangji people have stayed in Tuen Mun Island for so many years, and let them escape for a few more days. First, let's see if there are reinforcements, and second, we must also Shipbuilding ready for war."

He looked at the crowd and said, "Please accept the request for building warships and food and salaries. The crime of Wang Hung, the suspicion of the officials in Guangdong and Guangxi, really needs to appoint imperial envoys to supervise and conduct a thorough investigation. Zhang Fujing is in Xuanyu's study!"

Yang Tinghe and the others looked at him in astonishment.

Why is it such a coincidence, the doctor of the Ministry of Household Affairs, Guangdong Qinglisi?

Can the imperial envoy of the fifth rank really convince everyone when he goes to Guangdong?

When Zhang Fujing rushed to the Zhongyuan Hall from the household department outside the Chengtian Gate, the hall seemed to be chatting, and the ministers introduced the Daming Navy and water warfare to the emperor.

"Lu Song, come with the sword!"

Lu Song, one of the leaders of the imperial guards, took off his knife and handed it to him strangely, trying to remind him that it was a knife.

Zhu Houcong held the scabbard and said, "Zhang Fujing listens to the order."

Zhang Fujing knelt beside the eighteen chairs: "The minister is here."

Zhu Houcong looked down at him and said, "The Langzhong of the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Secretary of Qing Dynasty Officials in Guangdong, Walking in the Yushufang, and Zhang Fujing, the attendant of the Imperial Academy, went to Guangdong and Guangxi to supervise the encroachment of Haiao in Tuen Mun and the tribute of the vassal barbarians. Wang Hung was found guilty and innocent, Zhang Fujing quickly found out and submitted it to Beijing. All officials from Guangdong and Guangxi gave him the convenience, if anyone obstructs the emperor's order, the third rank and below please use this sword to kill them."

Zhang Fujing's heart was shocked, he raised his head to confirm the seriousness of the emperor, then lowered his head and said, "Minister Zhang Fujing accepts the decree!"

The third grade and below, that is to say, all the officials of a province are covered.

It's just a mere imperial study, once you have the order of an imperial envoy, can you have such authority?
Yang Tinghe was about to stand up and persuade Zhu Houcong that there was a problem with doing so. If the imperial envoy followed the path of a civil servant, he should be sent from the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

But he heard the emperor say in a cold voice: "Third rank and above, please go to the south of the Lingnan with the Jinyiwei to get the seal of my treasure, and all the troops in Guangdong and Guangxi will obey the order!"

Yang Ting and Tongren shrunk.

Level three and above, Guangdong and Guangxi only have the level of governor of Guangdong and Guangxi.

What is Jinyiwei Lingnan Walking?
"Your Majesty!" Yang Tinghe had no choice but to speak, "This power is too heavy, and people in Guangdong and Guangxi are frightened when they hear the decree..."

"The last one is a secret decree." Zhu Houcong glanced at them coldly, "If there is any restlessness above the third grade in Guangdong and Guangxi, it means that the people in this hall are communicating with each other. Since the important ministers of Guangdong and Guangxi are suspicious, how can we not guard against it?"

"Your Majesty, the plague of scabies, why is it so motivating the crowd?"

Many people thought so, they just thought that the emperor overreacted to the first border trouble.

"Zhang Fujing, you are the doctor of the Ministry of Household Cleaning Department, where did the transfer from Guangdong to Beijing and the Bank come from, and how has it changed in the past ten years?"

Zhang Fujing immediately reported the figures proficiently, and among them, Guangdong Zhuchi, salt tax, and tribute taxes all showed a downward trend.

"What about the soldiers in Guangdong and Guangxi, and the distribution of food and money?"

"The robbery in Tengxia, Guangxi, the banditry in the South of the Five Ridges, the pirates in Nanyang..." Zhang Fujing did not participate in the debate before, but devoted himself to writing memorials according to the order.

Zhu Houcong left the throne and walked slowly in front of Zhang Fujing.

"Wang Hung wrote a book written in blood, and there is only one copy. The one submitted to the cabinet is a copy. For the time being, I don't believe who is telling the truth, so I have to prepare for the worst and see the truth clearly."

He raised Lu Song's saber and handed it over: "Take the sword! Yang Shen, draw up two decrees, one light and one dark!"

Yang Tinghe's gaze focused once again: the decree written by his son himself!

Only the people in this temple know the existence of this secret decree.

The emperor's seal is stored in this round hall.

And when did the so-called Jinyiwei walk south of the Five Ridges, holding a treasure seal and leaving the capital?
The emperor's trustworthy Jinyiwei Gaopin commanded...

In Yang Tinghe's mind, two aides told him that the two people, who only knew their surnames but not their names, escorted Liang Chu back to his hometown.

He couldn't help but look at Zhu Houcong with the shock in his eyes, and then quickly shifted his gaze to Chen Jin and Guo Xun.

……impossible?
When he looked at Yan Song who had been silent all this time, Yang Tinghe yelled out firmly in his heart: Impossible!
How could Yan Song know?It's just a memorial that has been published several times since the 15th year of Zhengde!

But the appointment of imperial envoys to Guangdong and Guangxi is exactly the direction Yang Tinghe wants to guide the development of the situation, and he...doesn't want to stop it.

It was actually a letter written in blood, and he didn't have the moral to stop the emperor from getting mad.

The emperor hasn't lost his temper for a long time, and this is his first defeat!
Yang Tinghe didn't know that Yan Song's heart was also surging with huge waves.

Yan Song knew that Frangji was related to Jiang Bin, and Jiang Bin was related to Wang Qiong, Chen Jin, Guo Xun and others.When Frangji set up camp on Tuen Mun Island, both Guo Xun and Chen Jin were working in Guangdong and Guangxi.Wu Tingju, who was also in Guangdong at the time, is now standing in front of Yang Tingyi.

But these were all his guesses, and he didn't tell the emperor.

Now, why did the emperor react so strongly to this Tuen Mun defeat?

Is he really going to set off huge waves in Guangdong and Guangxi?

What about Guo Xun and Chen Jin?
Isn't this following Yang Tinghe's wishes?
no, not like...

"Yang Tinghe, whose land is it?"

Those six cold words echoed in Yan Song's heart, and he looked at Zhang Fujing who took over the "sword".

The blade is hidden in the sheath, and the sharpness is not visible.

Where will this knife come from, and where will it go?
……

With more than 40 taels of temporary food and salaries, the emperor did not embarrass the Ministry of Household Affairs.

However, taking it out of the so-called secret storehouse of the nature of the sealed pile storehouse only makes people feel terrified.

That was the emperor who used his "life" to carve up Qian Ning and Jiang Bin from his courtiers.

Now that the money is given out without hesitation, whose life will it kill?

Zhang Fujing, who failed in seven tests and wasted half his life to more than forty, set off under the escort of Fu Wang Zuo, Fusi Town, Jinyiwei North Town, with an imperial decree and a sword bestowed by the emperor.

The seventeen ministers who participated in the national policy meeting were all terrified.

Why did Wang Zuo, who was originally in the Fusi of Nanzhen, become the Fushi of Beizhen?

Because of the fire of Niseimen.

The naval battle at Tuen Mun was nothing more than a group of bandits fleeing from a small barbarian country. Even though it might be tricky with the benefits of Guangdong, Guangxi and production, why did you send out the envoys of Beizhen Fusi?

Could it be that Jin Yiwei has found some clues related to the fire of Nijingmen?
This thread is actually in the south?

Guo Xun was very scared. He wanted to plead guilty for what happened back then, and he also wanted to send someone to tell Funing Hou Zhu Qi.

But he didn't dare, he was finally able to win the holy favor among the honored ministers, and he was able to attend the national policy meeting.

Chen Jin was also afraid, he didn't have the wisdom of Liang Chu, and he was not sure about the emperor's idea, he didn't even dare to consult with anyone at such a time.

The envoy of Beizhen left the capital, but what about the admiral of Dongchang?

In the central round hall, who will fellowship with each other?
Below the third rank, he will be cut immediately, and above the third rank, the battle between the armies of Guangdong and Guangxi will be too terrifying.That secret decree was handled by Wang Xian himself in the Ministry of War formalities!
Yang Tinghe vaguely felt that this matter was out of control, the battle was too big, and why was it vaguely connected with the fire of the Rijingmen?

Even so, he wasn't too worried.The flames of Guangdong and Guangxi cannot burn him no matter what.It's Liang Chu... Can the Liang family get away?
On the way to the south, Zhang Fujing and Wang Zuo didn't know each other well.

"Wang Zhenfu, if things change, Jin Yiwei will walk south of the Lingnan..."

Wang Zuo smiled very friendly: "If things change, Mr. Zhang is walking, then Lingnan Walking will naturally appear."
