Chapter 287: Two Factions

Chapter 287 Three Camps
Hearing that Zhu Youxiao wanted to set up a new chief envoy, the first reaction of the ministers was to oppose it.

"Your Majesty, it has been more than 250 years since Taizu founded the country. After so many years of verification, the thirteen chief ministers are the most in line with our Ming's national conditions. The world is peaceful, the country is peaceful and the people are safe. This is the best proof. If His Majesty sets up a new chief envoy, it may attract criticism from the world and cause cholera, please think twice, Your Majesty!" The first one to stand up was Han Yu, who was angry with his presence.Wei Ming scoffed at his statement.What does it mean that the addition of a chief envoy will cause such a big trouble?This is obviously alarmist talk!

"Lord Han, I don't agree with your words. We must keep pace with the times. If Taiwan is really prosperous and the people are safe, it will be a matter of time before it returns to the court orthodoxy. I didn't know it before, but now I know it. Can it be ignored? I think we have to investigate clearly before we can make a conclusion. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be ridiculous." Yang Lian said.He is obviously a member of Wei Ming's faction, and he knows what Wei Ming wants to do. Although it is still unclear why, since Wei Ming wants to do this, there is naturally a reason for him.Yang Lian chose to trust Wei Ming unconditionally.As for Han Yu, Yang Lian didn't have much affection.Although they were originally from the Donglin Party, they were under the same roof, but later Yang Lian and Wei Ming got closer, and it was this Han Yu who called Yang Lian a traitor and went around to persuade Yang Lian to be expelled from Donglin. forest party.Yang Lian didn't care.You still want to drive me away?Do you think it's okay for me to stay here?Later, the two quarreled once, and the relationship became completely stiff.Not long ago, Wei Ming was captured by his brother Ha Chi. Seeing that this was a good opportunity, Han Yu didn't hesitate to give Yang Lian some shoes.Wei Ming didn't come back, and most of the people on this side were in the army, so Yang Lian chose to endure and wait for the opportunity.Now that Wei Ming is back, what are you afraid of?Whether it is public or private, he has no reason not to object.As soon as he spoke, Han Yu glared at him angrily, but Yang Lian didn't care at all.What else can you do to me?
"Your Majesty, I feel that Master Yang's words are reasonable. No matter what, we have to find out the situation first before making a conclusion. If Taiwan is really as good as Marquis Wei said, then it is imperative to set up a chief envoy. And if Taiwan does not have enough strength to set up a chief envoy, we can also settle for the next best thing and set up a state capital, after all, this is a major event and cannot be hasty." Gu Bingqian stood up and said.Wei Ming glanced at Gu Bingqian, but didn't say much.In fact, what Gu Bingqian said was right.Wei Ming knew a lot about Taiwan in his previous life, but he didn't know much about Taiwan now.After all, from ancient times to the present, there is no historical material on the founding of a mansion and church in Taiwan, and there are really not many things that can be used for reference.And what the merchants who came back from Taiwan learned were only a few words. If they believed such words to be true, it would be irresponsible to themselves and the entire Ming Dynasty.So it is imperative to go to Taiwan for a real on-the-spot investigation.However, if the words come out of someone else's mouth, it's normal.Speaking from the mouth of Gu Bingqian, a die-hard fan of Wei Zhongxian, it is very debatable.Wei Ming and Wei Zhongxian are going to have a falling out, which is basically not news.In the Ming Dynasty, only individuals knew about it.But now Gu Bingqian stood up and said something good or bad for Wei Ming, which is very abnormal.For these old foxes, they never do meaningless things.Even if you say a word, there is a purpose behind it.If you're not careful, you won't know when you'll be eaten and there won't even be a bone left.

Soon, three kinds of opinions were formed in the imperial study room. One was to directly set up the chief envoy. These people basically supported Wei Ming.Such as Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou.Now Zuo Guangdou has also become the censor of the capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the entire Metropolitan Procuratorate basically belongs to Yang Lian.And some people choose to investigate first before making conclusions. There are many such people. They are neither members of the Weiming camp nor members of the Donglin Party. There are some members of the Eunuch Party, while others are cautious The principle of doing things is chosen.After all, in such a high-level meeting, if you don't make a statement, it's easy to be labeled as a vegetarian.No one likes this kind of person.At that time, there is no other choice but to leave the court.The remaining people are hardcore Donglin party members. There used to be many such people, but now there are not many such people.In any case, the Donglin Party is indeed in decline, at least before Qian Qianyi entered the cabinet.

"Okay, stop arguing!" No matter how the people below quarreled, the emperor Zhu Youxiao made the final decision.Now Zhu Youxiao already has some majesty.Thousands of officials and businessmen, large and small, were arrested in the grain reselling case, and they were all detained in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.But there has been no movement since then, and I don't know what the final result will be.However, the more this happens, the more disturbing it is, and it is even more frightening than cutting it directly.Whether more people will be caught and how long this storm will last have become a big question mark in everyone's mind.If this case is not closed, no one can feel at ease.For a while, the entire Ming Dynasty was in a state of turmoil, and I had a certain understanding of Zhu Youxiao's vigorous and resolute tactics.If Zhu Youxiao really wanted to do something so-and-so now, few people would dare to stop him.After all, everyone is just trying to make a living, so there's no need to do it to death.

Zhu Youxiao spoke, and the place below suddenly became quiet.Wei Ming has been watching this with cold eyes, feeling like he was Zhao Gao once.The important ministers in the court are all here, and those who support him must be from their own camp or hope to join their own camp.Those who oppose themselves will definitely fight themselves to the end.And those intermediate forces can be won.This is similar to calling a deer a horse.The difference is that what Zhao Gao did was considered a joke, while what Wei Ming did was a national event, which is completely different.Seeing clearly friend and foe is only done incidentally.

"How can people hear you so twittering? Well, I also think it's too hasty to directly set up a chief envoy. After all, in our Ming Dynasty, there were only thirteen chief envoys, and the gold was very expensive. Ah! However, I also believe that Marquis Wei will never do something out of nothing. The statement that Taiwan is equivalent to one-sixth of Northern Zhili is still credible! Believe it or not, anyway, I believe it. Just rushing into such a big place, we can't let it go. Think about it, it is said that the country of Wa is about the same size as our Beizhili, and it has caused us so much harm. If Taiwan is left alone, we don't know what will happen What a big deal! Therefore, Taiwan broke away from the Penghu Inspection Department and set up an independent Taiwan Inspection Department. The imperial court appointed commissioners to be in charge of management and development. Then sent imperial envoys to investigate and see how much potential Taiwan has. So, what do you think?" After Zhu Youxiao said this, Wei Ming took the lead and knelt down, shouting: "The emperor is holy!" People from Wei Ming's faction knelt down immediately.The others stared wide-eyed, not knowing what to do.When the emperor frowned and stared, he had no choice but to kneel down and tell: "Your Majesty is holy!" Zhu Youxiao nodded in satisfaction. After staying in the barracks for a while, he became much more refreshed and unwilling to procrastinate. Go on, now that I have reached this point today, I simply settled the matter, so I continued: "Then tell me, who is the most suitable imperial envoy to Taiwan!"

These words stumped everyone.Send people from your own faction, that is Sima Zhaozhi's heart, and everyone knows it.If he sent someone from the opponent's side, it would definitely be a slap in the face.This candidate must have no cronies, no official or position, and not belong to the court, and it would be better if he came from the people.But at this time, where can I find a private person to be the imperial envoy?Besides, it's a bit hasty to be sent as an imperial envoy without an official or a job?
"Your Majesty, I have a candidate." Zuo Guangdou replied loudly.For a moment, everyone's eyes were on him.
