Jinyi Night Walk

In the palace of the King of Han, the Han party gathered and held a big banquet.

As the chief staff officer of King Han, Chen Ying sat at the top. The loss of hun and depression of the past few days has completely disappeared. Chen Ying's face was full of spirits. He raised his cup and congratulated King Han loudly: "Yang Xu is in prison, It can be seen that the emperor has made up his mind, congratulations, Your Highness, keep the clouds open to see the moonlight!"

Satisfied, the king of Han raised his glass and thanked him: "Speaking of which, it is the merit of the ministry. If it hadn't been for the great people of the ministry to persuade me to stay in Beijing, but to go to Yunnan to become a vassal, how would my king be today? I have little knowledge, then At that time, I thought that the Annan War was an opportunity to lead troops. Now you can see that Zhang Fu was invincible and invincible in Annan, but he still could not calm down the situation in Annan.

He is stuck in a quagmire in Annan, unable to get out of it. According to this king, he will be thrown in that desolate place for the rest of his life.If this king was really a vassal in Yunnan at the beginning, now he is the one who can't advance or retreat in Annan. He spends all his life there, how can he still seek a big position.Drinking water and thinking about the source, if this king can become the prince, the Ministry will be the first to contribute, come, this king respects Mr. Ministry! "

Chen Ying quickly raised his glass and said: "Don't dare, I think too much about things, and become suspicious, so that I am afraid of the head and tail, and it is difficult to accomplish a big thing. Your majesty's majesty is unmatched by anyone, and he is a true hero! Watch today Come on, if you want to accomplish something great, you need a hero like His Highness to do it!"

The king of Han pointed at him and laughed: "The ashes are not cold and the Shandong is in chaos, so Liu Xiang doesn't study! Does the lord of the Ministry say that this king can only show the courage of a man?"

Chen Ying said obsequiously: "How dare I! Liu Bang Xiang Yu is a hero in the world. It's not like they don't study anymore. These are all sour complaints from unsatisfied scholars. It's not that Liu Xiang and Xiang Yu don't study, but Applying what you have learned is not like a group of rotten Confucians who are obsessed with books and stick to books!"

The King of Han laughed out loud, and all his confidantes gathered together in a hurry, toasting first to the King of Han and then to Chen Ying.

After toasting indiscriminately, the King of Han suddenly sighed, put down his cup and said, "Xie Jin is down, and Yang Xu is down too. Father really loves me! However, the rotten Confucians in the imperial court are still dying. They hold the chaste memorial archway of "establishing the throne and establishing the head" and don't let go, when will the father abolish and establish the crown prince?"

Chen Yingdao: "The crown prince is the foundation of the country. Since ancient times, the abolition of the crown prince is a great event. For example, Liu Bang of the Han Dynasty, the founding king of the country, kept his promises. No one in the Manchu dynasty would dare to disobey him. He despised his eldest son Liu Yingsheng for being cowardly and mediocre. If you want to establish your second son, Ruyi, don’t you want to proceed step by step and test the minds of the officials in every possible way. Although the current emperor is arbitrary, he must be cautious in this big matter, there must be a process.”

When Chen Ying said this, Fu Xu smiled and said: "Liu Ying was never abandoned in the end, thanks to the support of Shangshan Sihao, it's a pity that the current crown prince does not have Shangshan Sihao, only Yang Xujiejin, the second general, hum ha, Now that his right-hand man and right-hand man have all entered the Imperial Prison, is it not easy to abolish the crown prince?

The old minister has been cautious all his life, he didn't dare to judge the emperor's mind before, so he tried his best to persuade His Highness to do his best, just in case.Now that God's will is so clear, it couldn't be more obvious, our people can be straightforward and write to the emperor, requesting that the crown prince be abolished and the king of Han be established!The old minister will also go to the shuffle in person to plead for His Highness! "

Chen Ying has always been cautious in doing things, always thinking about defeat before winning, with the idea of ​​cunning rabbits and three caves, once he fails, he can lie down without losing his vitality, waiting for the opportunity.It was the same this time. In the process of impeaching Xie Jin and indirectly shaking the prince's position, he only instructed Yu Shiji to find some newly promoted imperial envoys to take the lead. None of them made a move.

Not only did he still have a considerable amount of strength that has not been exposed, but the contacts in the civil and military classes that he had managed to accumulate over the years, the connections in the civil and military classes, and the party members he recruited were all held back under his persuasion. In order to prevent all strength from being exposed in advance.

Now that the emperor's intention to abolish the crown prince is very obvious, Chen Ying finally decided: let the whole boat sink and fight to the death!

Even he, the chief strategist of the King of Han faction, was about to go into battle shirtless, so there was no need for the others to retain their strength.

The King of Han was overjoyed, raised his glass and said, "Come on, let's celebrate together for you and me, cheers!"

In the morning of the next day, the procedure was still followed, first dealing with the reception of foreign envoys, the resignation of officials from Beijing, and the visit to Beijing to see the driver. Most of the time, this link was just a formality. Twice.

All the civil and military officials below waited with all their strength. Some planned to protect the crown prince, some planned to attack the crown prince, some planned to intercede for the prince, and some planned to continue to make trouble. Chen Ying and others planned to make a clear statement Support Yi Chu, and try to protect Hanwang's supremacy.

Mu Si asked: "Are there any officials who sent sacrifices back to life, are there any officials who are promoted to thank you, are there any officials who have come to Beijing to see you, and are there any foreign envoys to Beijing?"

There was no sound below.The big guys from all walks of life have gathered enough energy to prepare for the war, who is so blind, and use some messy things to add to everyone's chaos at this time?

However, there are still people who don't open their eyes. The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty have nothing to do with this person, because this person is the emperor.

After Mu Si finished asking and no one answered, she was about to announce that all the officials had played their part.

Before the Xuande of the Ming Dynasty, early court affairs were very important. At that time, the master personally decided all the opportunities, and many important matters were discussed and decided in the Golden Palace.It wasn't until Xuande died and Yingzong succeeded to the throne. Yingzong was a nine-year-old boy who didn't have the ability to judge state affairs in the current dynasty. Everything was decided by the auxiliary ministers. The early dynasty did not become a formality, and it became a practice.

Unexpectedly, Mu Si brushed the dust, and just about to speak, Zhu Di who was sitting on the throne suddenly coughed and said: "Today, the officials of the yamen stopped the performance before the imperial court, and if there is something to do, it will be played in the book. I have a big thing to say, and I haven't done it yet." When I returned to Beijing, I made a decree to discuss the transfer of the capital, and now it’s been a while, I want to know, after all the ministers have discussed it for so long, have you come up with a charter?"

All the officials looked at each other, confused by the sudden question of the emperor, Chen Ying, Huang Zhen, Yang Rong, Huang Huai and other ministers stepped forward, even raising their dantian breath to their throats, Just wait for Mu Si to shout: "All the officials have this to play early, and there is nothing to go back to the court..." Then he shouted, "The minister has this to play!" and rushed out, but this time...

Several people slowly retracted their stepped feet, and the golden hall was silent for a long time.

Can't we just leave the emperor there?Murong Rongzhu, a scholar of the Imperial Academy, was the first to react. He fell to his knees when he came out of the class, and played loudly: "Murong Rongzhu of the Imperial Academy, after receiving the imperial edict, I discussed it carefully with my colleagues in the Imperial Academy. I thought that Jinling was located in the southeast. Controlling the northwest is not a resort. It is indeed a wise move for the emperor to move the capital, but it is not appropriate to move the capital to Beijing!"

Zhu Di raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh, what's wrong?"

Murong Xueshi said: "Throughout the history, Kaifeng and Luoyang in the Heluo area were the capitals and they enjoyed a long time. The other is Chang'an and Xianyang in the Guanzhong area. Emperor Taizu Gao intended to move the capital to Guanzhong. Guanzhong'According to the victory of Baier Rivers and Mountains, it can tower the hopes of the princes', which is the perfect place for the capital! "

This bachelor is from Shaanxi, and when he got the opportunity, he tried his best to sell his hometown. As soon as he finished speaking, he always just dozed off in the court hall, and Liu An, the secretary of Taichang Temple who didn't participate in everything, jumped out and played: "Your Majesty, Chang'an and Xianyang have been in decline during the Song and Yuan dynasties. How can they be the capital? Luoyang is surrounded by enemies and is not a place for military use, let alone Kaifeng. The Yellow River is beside it. Not only can it not be a barrier, it will flood all the time. , it will become a disaster, and it is not a good place, so I think it is not advisable."

Zhu Di asked: "So where do you think can be the capital?"

Liu An said: "Comparing Yanjing with Chang'an, Luoyang, and Bianliang, I think that Yanjing's situation is the best, and the situation between heaven and earth is probably not as good as Yanjing. The front of the river is economical, and the benefits of Raogu, horse fish, salt, fruit and rice. Shuntian is the residence of the emperor, and the southeast turns to Cao, and the Qin and Jin Dynasties enter the Wei, and the shape is superior to the world!"

Zhu Di's spirit was greatly lifted, and he immediately said: "What Liu Aiqing said is very reasonable!"

As soon as the words fell, Qiu Jun, a senior scholar who was worried about the prince's safety and didn't want to express his opinion on this matter, became angry and jumped out suddenly, saying loudly: "Juyong, my back is also; Bauhinia, my mouth is also. Take Yanjing As the capital, it is close to Beidi, lest it will choke me and slap my back, and it is close to the sea in the east, so if there are bandits coming from the sea, it will be difficult to guard against!"

Liu An immediately said: "There is Xiongguan in the north of Yanjing, and there is Liaodong to strangle the Tatars. With the strength of our Ming Dynasty, why worry about it? Although the east faces the sea, it is the inner sea. There are Liaodong and Shandong narrowly guarding the inner sea. If Even if you can’t resist foreign invaders coming from the sea, then no matter how far the capital is moved, can it prevent the enemy’s iron-shoe soldiers from approaching the city?”

At the beginning of the two people, all the civil and military officials couldn't care less, they all opened their mouths, and the officials who opposed the transfer of the capital accounted for [-]% of the [-]% of the entire Golden Palace. Some scolded those who were short-sighted, and scolded those who agreed to move the capital to Beijing as flattery, scolding the Golden Palace everywhere.

In Zhu Di's ears, it was almost like scolding him by pointing at his nose. Zhu Di's big black face became darker and darker.The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty didn't pay any attention to it, they were just pointing at Sang and scolding Huai, the uglier the emperor's face, the happier they were, the ministers scolded each other, and the scolding lasted until noon.

Zhu Di couldn't bear it anymore, and slapped the table with a sullen face and shouted: "Since the ministers have not made a decision, then we will continue to discuss the matter of moving the capital. No matter how long it takes, we must come up with a conclusion! Retire!"

Zhu Di stood up abruptly, turned around and was about to leave when Huang Zhen and Chen Ying couldn't help stepping out of the courtroom together, shouting loudly: "Your Majesty, go slowly, I have an answer!"

Zhu Di turned his head and saw that he was actually the right-hand man of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

Chen Ying and Huang Zhen looked at each other, and neither of them wanted to give in. Zhu Di pointed at Huang Zhen, and asked by name: "What does Huang Qing have to say?"! .
