Daming: The Sims, Lao Zhu’s mentality collapsed

Chapter 70 If the heroes cannot escape unscathed, how can the imperial court stand in the world?
  Looking at Jinluan Hall, no one said anything.

Ying Zheng chuckled lightly: "You all are watching what I do. Those who have the original memorial and those who do not have the original memorial are waiting. You are responsible for the important affairs of the country. Every time you hand over a good strategy, the people of the Ming Dynasty will be saved." Blessed.”

After he spoke, the atmosphere in the palace relaxed a lot, and the officials all breathed a sigh of relief.

For some reason, it felt like a huge mountain was weighing on their hearts just now, making them unable to breathe.

Li Shanchang held the wat board in his hand, stepped forward, and bowed his head to Lao Zhu: "Old minister Li Shanchang, I would like to inform your majesty that due to the lack of officials, the governor's office has neglected management. Please dispatch personnel from the Peking Army to return to Beijing to report on their work."

Zhu Yuanzhang came back to his senses and asked: "Mr. Han, let's be honest, who do you want to transfer back to Beijing?"

Li Shanchang said: "The governor's office is Lan Yu."

He lowered his head and cast his gaze slightly towards King Wu. This was the condition he had agreed to with King Wu in advance.

Although he didn't know why King Wu wanted to transfer Lan Yu back to the capital, Li Shan thought about it for a long time and didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Since he had no loss at all, what could he do if he could help King Wu.

Ying Zheng's eyes were calm, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

"Your Majesty, Liu Ji, impeaches Lan Yu, the official of the Governor's Office!"

Liu Ji took a step forward and said loudly, "I have asked Lan Yu a long time ago. He is arrogant and arrogant. In the army, he relied on his meritorious deeds and acted tyrannically. He has done many illegal things. I suggest that Lan Yu be deprived of his position and ordered to do so." He returned to Beijing for trial."

After saying this, he also glanced at Ying Zheng.

Although Li Shanchang wanted to transfer Lan Yu back to Beijing for some unknown reason, he had promised the King of Wu in advance to impeach Lan Yu.

Furthermore, since Li Shanchang wants to transfer Lan Yu back to Beijing for re-employment, then their East Zhejiang Party will have to confront the Huaixi Party. Let’s not talk about whether this matter is good for themselves. Anyway, they cannot let Li Shanchang get his wish.

"Liu Bowen, you are enjoying your comfort in the city of Nanjing. Have you ever thought that your current comfort was earned by the soldiers who fought bloody battles on the front line?"

Li Shanchang scolded, "Now the generals are out killing the enemy and making achievements, but you are throwing dirty water on them. What are your intentions for such a disgraceful act?"

As soon as these words came out, many Huaixi soldiers showed dissatisfaction with Liu Ji.

Brothers are fighting in the front, and you are stabbing in the back. Liu Bowen, Liu Bowen, you are such a beast.

"Gong is merit, fault is fault. When will a general who has merit be free from the law?"

Liu Ji retorted, "If we follow the words of Lord Han, wouldn't it mean that as long as we have done meritorious service for our country, we can override our laws?"

The literati in eastern Zhejiang echoed Liu Jizhi's words and launched a verbal and written attack on Li Shanchang. The generals in Huaixi were also not good-tempered and responded angrily.

Seeing that there was going to be chaos in the court again, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to hear their quarrel anymore, so he raised his arms slightly.

In an instant, there was silence in Fengtian Hall.

Lao Zhu looked at Ying Zheng and asked, "King Wu, what do you think?"

Ying Zheng stepped forward. His already burly figure was even more heroic at this moment, and he said calmly: "If the hero cannot escape unscathed, how can the imperial court stand in the world? But as Cheng Yibo said, no one can surpass him. Based on the law, if I were to make a decision, Lan Yu should be recalled to the capital, reviewed first and then rewarded, in order to rectify the people's sentiments and stabilize the military's morale. If I cannot make a clear decision on this matter, what will the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the Jiubian area think of my court? "

"If such a meritorious official cannot escape unscathed, how can the imperial court stand proudly in the world?"

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed with emotion, "King Wu, what you said touched our hearts, and we think so too."

This is a lie. In his heart, Zhu Yuanzhang did not regard the heroes as human beings at all. In his eyes, these old brothers who founded the country were all lambs to be slaughtered. If they didn't like them, they would be taken out and slaughtered.

But now Ying Zheng's words make Lao Zhu feel quite ashamed. He had to admit that he was indeed inferior to King Wu in terms of magnanimity.

"Since the fall of the Song Dynasty, the Central Plains has been under the iron heel of the barbarians for a hundred years, and the Han people have been divided. It was not until the founding of the Ming Dynasty that they were unified."

Ying Zheng looked at the ministers with a hawk, his eyes full of the majesty of the First Emperor, "Now the Duke of Wei is leading troops to prevent the Northern Yuan Dynasty. In my opinion, defense is not enough. We should use offense instead of defense to consolidate the people's hearts with conquest. The former Song Dynasty lost The dignity of the Ming Dynasty should be taken back by me, who unified the Central Plains. If you want to strengthen the army, you must first manage the army, and running the army and selecting generals is no joke!"

Cao Guogong Li Wenzhong raised his hand and seconded the proposal: "What His Highness the King of Wu said is very true. I deeply agree. If you want to strengthen the country, you must first strengthen the army. If you want to strengthen the army, you must first manage the army. The Lan Yu case is not a trivial matter. I think the policy of the King of Wu is the most reasonable."

Li Wenzhong's position was very clear. He was the only Duke who moved closer to King Wu.

It is now the eighth year of Hongwu. There are only six princes in the Ming Dynasty. These six princes almost control the entire military and political affairs of the Ming Dynasty.

South Korean Duke Li Shanchang and Zheng Guogong Chang Mao were members of the Huaixi Party. Duke Xu Da of Wei, Duke Li Wenzhong of Cao, Duke Feng Sheng of Song, and Duke Deng Yu of Wei led troops outside all year round and were not involved in party disputes.

In other words, the only two Dukes who actually participated in the party struggle were Li Shanchang and Chang Mao. As for Li Wenzhong, the king of Wu stood up, and the pressure he brought to everyone present was obvious.

Nowadays, Li Wenzhong is basically in charge of the Governor's Mansion. He blatantly leans towards King Wu, so how can people not think too much about it.

"In that case, let Lan Yu come back first according to King Wu's words."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly, waved his hand and said, "Let's stop the discussion here today. You all will leave on your own. King Wu will stay. We have something to ask you."

The ministers resigned.

When Li Wenzhong left after saluting, he took another look at Ying Zheng.

Although he had a good relationship with King Wu before, it was not very stable, and today's court meeting completely labeled him as a member of King Wu's party.

Li Wenzhong had always been unwilling to participate in party struggles. He felt that he was already a highly respected minister and that as long as he remained neutral, he could enjoy wealth and wealth without any need to take risks.

But as time went by, he found that he seemed to be a little too naive. In other dynasties, Zhongli could survive, but when working under Lao Zhu, Zhongli seemed to be at risk of being beheaded!
  Li Wenzhong investigated for a long time and finally chose to join the King of Wu. If the King of Wu can maintain his current status in the future, he will also have a backer in Cao Guogong's palace.

Thinking of this, Li Wenzhong walked more calmly and walked out of Fengtian Hall with his head raised.

In sharp contrast to Li Wenzhong is Prince Zhu Biao.

In the past, Zhu Biao had always been elegant and calm, but today he seemed a little confused. When he was next to Ying Zheng, he felt like a tiny ant standing next to the sun.

Is this really the King of Wu? When did my brother look down on the world like a dragon and a tiger like he is now?

My brother King Wu actually has the appearance of a great emperor?

……

The ministers left one after another, and after a long time, only Ying Zheng and Zhu Yuanzhang were left in the Fengtian Palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang stood up from the Jinluan chair and walked slowly towards Ying Zheng.

His eyes were locked with Ying Zheng's calm eyes from beginning to end.
