Chapter 172

The tone of an old minister's stern voice telling Yang Reform to stop building ships immediately contained the meaning of "order".

Yang Reform was also furious when he heard that, MLGB, if the tiger doesn't show its power, you treat me like a sick cat!Sneered and said: "Hey, this Qing family is so majestic, and ordered me to do things. It seems that I must submit to you?"

In the Wenhua Palace, the emperor's words were extremely cold, and all the ministers couldn't help shivering, ordering the emperor to submit, this proposition is a bit... not ordinary tough.

"I don't dare, I have no intention of ordering Your Majesty, and I have no intention of making Your Majesty submit. I am a death penalty, my Majesty, I just want to ask Your Majesty to stop unnecessary waste of people and money, and stop building luxurious giant boats! Your Majesty! , So, it was done by the foolish people, not by the Ming Lord! Your Majesty, there are countless people in the world who are waiting for this Majesty to come to rescue them. How can Your Majesty abandon them? If Your Majesty does not make corrections, the great Ming Dynasty will be ruined Yes! Your Majesty..." Although the old minister said that he was guilty, he still spoke in an orderly tone, as if the emperor would not listen to him, and the Ming Dynasty would be over immediately, and his eyes were fixed on him. Emperor, look like the emperor you killed me.

There was a lot of anger in Yang Reform's heart, and the officials also looked at the emperor coldly to see how the emperor would make a move. Sun Chengzong inherited the previous tradition, and the "soy sauce faction" was ready to go to the end.

"Am I the kind of person who is heartless and heartless? Who said that there are endless natural disasters? For the livelihood of tens of millions of people, I raised millions of taxes. Do I eat it myself? To raise money for disaster relief For the sake of the salary at the border, I had the cheek to reopen the Imperial College, did I take it alone? Could it be that I am really what you said, a foolish king?" Yang Reform Ninja's own anger is still "calm" and this An old minister talked.

"...But...Your Majesty, these belong to these. These are all the achievements of His Majesty, but the construction of this huge ocean-going boat is indeed a waste of people and money. It is indeed a waste of countless money! Your Majesty, if Your Majesty does not build it, it will definitely save dozens of dollars. Wouldn't it be better to give out ten thousand silver coins to help the victims?" The old minister wholeheartedly asked the emperor to stop building ships.

"I spent my own money, not the money from the household department. Do I have to ask you for instructions on how to spend money?" Yang Reform was very annoyed and wanted to kill, but he warned himself that this matter matter, the relationship is really too big, if it can be persuaded, or "convince people with reason", that is the best, it is not a last resort, do not kill, it is just the beginning, the pressure is far from reaching the maximum, and it is far from the end When using the final trump card, hold back and try not to use the trump card.Try not to physically eliminate opponents.

"Your Majesty, this is wrong. Thinking about your majesty's internal money, it was also released by the treasury. It was also the people's fat and people's anointing, and it was also your majesty who was supported by all the people in the world. Now that the people of the world are in trouble, your majesty must do their part. You should save the people of the world. How can you say your majesty?" Does the internal money have nothing to do with the people of the world?" The old minister acted like I'm not afraid of you, and his words were aggressive, blushing and thick-necked, "calling out" the emperor.

Yang Reform learned the characteristics of the Ming Dynasty, and the ministers took pride in teaching the emperor and "swearing" the emperor.Now I can say that I have been trained, this is the first time I have enjoyed this kind of treatment. I don’t know why before, these ministers have never given me this kind of "treatment". treated.

What’s yours is mine, what’s mine is still mine, this is the face and meaning of this group of ministers, after Yang Reform heard this, he was so angry that he laughed at the same time, it’s always been the protagonist who gives NPC this kind of treatment, now Well, NPCs give themselves this treatment.

"Hehehe...hahaha...hahahaha..." Yang Reform laughed angrily, laughing that this NPC of the Ming Dynasty would treat him like this.

The officials looked at the emperor who was a little "abnormal", not knowing what the emperor meant.

"My internal money is all paid by the Ministry of Household? Since I became the throne, has the Ministry of Household given me a penny? My several million taels of salary, if you think about it, should also be counted on the head of the Ministry of Household Now, then Mao Wenlong is not supported by me, it can only be regarded as the Ministry of Households giving money? Then the Ministry of Households is also supporting me in the palace? The capital camps in the capital are also supported by the Ministry of Households I’m just a rice bug? It’s basically useless? All my internal money should go to the household department, anyway, the household department just happens to be short, isn’t it?”

The emperor said such "harsh" words, and the Minister of the Household Department couldn't bear it at first, and knelt down on the ground: "I am guilty, I am guilty, I have no such meaning, absolutely no such meaning, your majesty clearly learns, understands." Hitting his head on the ground, the emperor's words have reached this point, and the next step is probably to burn in anger and kill someone.

Those who kowtowed to the Minister of the Household Department were a group of ministers. They all knelt on the ground and claimed that they were guilty. What does the emperor mean by saying this?The army, Ouchi, and Beijing camp are all supported by the household department?Doesn't that mean, what's the matter without an emperor?There is only one possibility for this situation, and that is that the emperor was completely emptied. Referring to Cao Cao in history, the situation is exactly the same as the emperor said. This is to rebel!The ministers were horrified, and immediately fell to their knees. The reputation of rebellion is too terrible.

The old official who had been "quarreling" with the emperor just now, although he knelt down on the ground, looked like he was not afraid of death, aiming at the pillars of the main hall from time to time.Prepare the emperor to hit him on the pillar as soon as he takes the knife and vents his anger.If you want blood to splash on the spot, come to a dead remonstrance.

"You may think I'm confused, you may think I'm doing useless things, you may think I'm ignorant, you may think I'm a bully, or you may think I'm boring..." Yang Reform was about to release his big move, although he was angry My liver hurts, but I'm still ready to "speak well".

The officials knelt on the ground and listened to the emperor's speech.Kneeling down this time, the emperor didn't let everyone get up. The ministers were not used to kneeling on the ground, bowing their backs, listening to the emperor's reprimand.

"Do you know why I want to build a ship? Why did the Wa Kingdom take away the king and ancestor of the Ryukyu Kingdom, and instead of killing the king, let the king go back?"

The emperor's words made the minister kneeling on the ground puzzled. What does this matter have to do with this?
"No one knows? I guess you don't know either. But I know the inside story. Do you want to hear it?"

A group of ministers raised their heads and looked at the emperor, as if they wanted to hear something.

Yang Reform looked at the officials on the ground, and felt that it would be better to let them kneel for a while. The person who designed this kneeling ceremony seemed to know how to figure it out. No matter how powerful you are, you will be overwhelmed by the sitting people. This is the benefit of being an emperor.

"The Japanese captured the suzerain of the Ryukyu country without killing them and then released them back, and they still let the Ryukyu country keep their surname. Do you think there is no reason? When did the people of the Japanese country become so kind? Hehe, it has been a hundred years, from raids, plunders and massacres The soldiers and civilians on the southeast coast of our country later landed on the mainland, attacked North Korea, and fought against our dynasty in North Korea, resulting in the death of tens of thousands of elite soldiers of our dynasty and costing countless money. Until now, we have kidnapped the leader of our vassal state of Ming Dynasty, that day Have you ever stopped? For what? For one day, I will be able to land on the mainland, occupy this piece of paradise under my feet, and fantasize about changing dynasties and ruling the world." Yang Reform began to change his goal.

"Your Majesty, it is really hateful for this Japanese country to cause chaos, but it is nothing more than scabies, and it will not have much impact on our dynasty. As long as our court takes precautions, this Japanese country will have no chance at all. "A minister couldn't help it, what the emperor wanted to say was for this?Although the Japanese people are hateful, they are definitely not to the point where the court pays so much attention to it.

"I also agree with this Qing family's point of view. As long as we take precautions, the Wa people really have no chance. However, this Wa country has launched attacks against our dynasty one after another. Has our dynasty ever punished it? There is no punishment, I think it must be In a few years, it will definitely come back again and attack us, so, should we just wait for the Japanese to attack? Is the face of my court, my face, for the Japanese people?"

"Does Your Majesty want to build a ship to punish the Japanese?" A minister asked conclusively.

"Well, this, this Qing family, does the Qing family know why the Japanese abducted the lord of the Ryukyu Kingdom and released it back? What's the idea?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I don't know about this, so please make it clear to Your Majesty."

"The Japanese people actually want to use the name of the Ryukyu Kingdom to come to our dynasty to trade and earn huge profits. They also want to find out the truth about our dynasty. If our dynasty is unprepared, it is uncertain when the Japanese will I drove a battleship and landed in Tianjin Wei, and when the time comes, it will be close to the capital, and the world will shake, maybe I will capture the emperor, just like the "Civil Fortress Change" at that time, and then... hum..." Yang Reform exaggerated the capabilities of the Japanese and said the consequences were quite serious, but it really shocked the ministers. [It is not an exaggeration. When the Central Plains Dynasty fell, it was when Japan was restless. 】

"May I ask Your Majesty, is this true? The Japanese dared to land in Tianjin Wei after taking the guts of a leopard? Prisoners..." Some ministers turned pale with horror, and went straight to the capital!Capture the emperor?Is this a big joke?

"Your Majesty, this is really absurd. How could the Japanese people have such courage, how could there be so many sea ships and giant ships? How could they afford to support so many people?"

"Your Majesty, this Japanese man is too naive. He dares to land directly in Tianjin Wei. He really doesn't know how to live or die!"

"Your Majesty, this is absolutely impossible! Absolutely impossible!..."

"Your Majesty is joking..."

……

Yang Reform's words made these ministers explode, is this okay?This allowed the Japanese pirates to attack the capital and capture the emperor. Is this a fantasy?This is a joke.

"Hmph, joke? A joke? Impossible? Impossible to land in Tianjin Wei? Impossible to build a boat? Impossible to raise so many soldiers?" Yang Reform knew that these ministers would think so.

"Then I would like to ask you, the Japanese once attacked me towards Nanjing, but it is true? If they can attack Nanjing, how can we guarantee that they will not attack Beijing? Is Tianjin connected to the sea? How can ships not travel to Tianjin? Can't afford so many People? How many soldiers did Japan have during the War to Resist Japan and Aid Korea? How many elite soldiers were killed or injured? How many ships did China have at that time? How many ships did Japan have? The Qing family is familiar with that period of history Can you clear up my confusion?" Yang Reform immediately laid out the history, to make Japan a target, to make the Japanese as bad as possible, to spy on the land of the Central Plains, to attack the capital, to attack the capital. Thinking of capturing the emperor, he could dispatch countless warships at any time, so Yang Reform wanted to scare these bureaucrats to death with the Japanese.

When the emperor said this, all the ministers looked impossible at first, but now, their faces turned pale, and the one who "cursed" the emperor before had a look of worry on his face.These scholars are all born as Jinshi, and history is a compulsory course. They must know the history of decades or hundreds of years ago.

Sun Chengzong came out and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the Japanese pirates did attack the city and plunder the land in our dynasty, killing and killing the soldiers and civilians is useless. Our court spent a lot of money to quell this Japanese invasion. The Japanese pirates did attack Nanjing, but failed."

Sun Chengzong's words reminded many ministers of the past a hundred years ago.Everyone fell silent.As Your Majesty said, if you can attack Nanjing, why is it impossible to attack Beijing?
"Reporting to Your Majesty, Tianjin is indeed a seaport, and the seaports of the world are connected. Therefore, if you set sail from the country of Wa, you can indeed reach Tianjin. However, you still need some places as docking places. In this way, I have many sea guards and intercept them layer by layer. Come down, it is very difficult for the Japanese country to go directly to Tianjin, but the possibility of direct access to Tianjin is not ruled out. Besides, I Chao Triton has been corrupted and completely wiped out. I haven't built a new ship for decades. Even if I want to intercept it, I still have How can we prevent the Wa people from landing in Tianjin?"

Sun Chengzong's words made these ministers frown even more. If the Japanese sent troops to Tianjin to force the capital, the world would be shaken!It's even scarier than that kind of prisoner entering the customs.One wants to rob and leave, and the other wants to destroy the Ming Dynasty!I couldn't help but shivered.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the last time the Wa Kingdom fought against us in North Korea, there were two times, and each time the number was around 15. The number of elites drawn by our dynasty from all sides was around 5 for the first time, and 8 for the second time. Between people, plus the battle in Shanghai, it can be said to be a big battle that can destroy the country. Judging from the two dispatches of the Wa Kingdom, the strength of the Wa Kingdom is probably close to 30. Otherwise, they would not dare to send troops twice. The strength of this Japanese country should really be taken seriously by me, otherwise, next time, no one can guarantee that 50 troops will cross the sea." Sun Chengzong said the truth before, and the history, the latter 50 is just a scare.

The ministers were even more horrified when they heard this. The small Japanese country actually dispatched 10,000+ troops twice to fight to the death in the Ming Dynasty, with 30 troops. This, when you think about it seriously, is indeed terrifying. If there are 20 troops directly Inserting Tianjin, and then advancing to the capital, this...many ministers couldn't help but sweat.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, when it comes to sea ships, the Japanese are no good. According to the historical records, the ships of the Japanese are not very big, but very small. Even the warships of North Korea can collide with the fleet of the Japanese. Not to mention my warships of the Ming Dynasty, I think it is not a problem for me to deal with a dozen small ships of the Japanese with one large ship. There are many ships in the Japanese country, but unfortunately, they are all small and powerless in naval battles." Sun Chengzong told the truth again.

When the ministers heard this, they felt relieved again. Although there are a lot of soldiers, it can threaten the Ming Dynasty, but it is useless without ships!It's not enough to see a dozen of them hit by one ship!
"Master Sun's words are right, and this is exactly what I am worried about. I think that the Japanese country has kidnapped the leader of the Ryukyu country and occupied the Ryukyu country. This Ryukyu country can build big ships, but it can build large ships. , the shipbuilding technology of the Japanese people is not what it used to be, what's more, they want to use the name of the Ryukyu Kingdom to trade with our dynasty, and they may buy our ships or materials. In this way, it will not take a few years, the Japanese people The warships of the Ming Dynasty should be built more and bigger than my Ming Dynasty. At this time, my Ming Dynasty's warships are old and there are no new ships. Isn't it just letting the Japanese kingdom run rampant? Or the Japanese pirates resurged, the south of the Yangtze River is corrupt, and the people are dying, or It is to attack the two capitals, this issue, I have to think about it, I have to make preparations!" After Yang Reform said something, he tried his best to fool these ministers into the abyss again!Yang Reform is to set up the target of Japan, so that his own shipbuilding will be unimpeded.

The ministers looked at each other in horror, the Japanese pirates reappeared, the corruption in Jiangnan, and the loss of life, these few words really scared the ministers. Many of these ministers were from Jiangnan. It is known from the mouths of generations that the Japanese pirates in those days were only driving small boats, and they could travel across several provinces. If there were big boats, wouldn't it be... the emperor is too powerful, and he can see so many from the clues. s things.According to the emperor's statement, we must always be on guard against the Wa Kingdom!It is necessary to immediately build battleships and big ships!Otherwise, another Japanese invasion is not far away, and the two capitals are at stake!

"Your Majesty's words are reasonable. I believe that since Your Majesty has seen through their tricks, then you should ban overseas trade, forbid the Ryukyu Kingdom to pay tribute to our court, and cut off all relations with Ryukyu and Wa Kingdoms. In this way, you will not be afraid of the Wa people. What a mess." A minister made such an opinion.

Yang Reform was speechless, this kind of thinking...

Sun Chengzong rescued the emperor: "My lord, this Japanese man may have mastered the technology of building large ships. What's more, most of the wood for building ships comes from Nanyang. Even if I go to retreat, it will not help!"

Hearing what Sun Chengzong said, some ministers became anxious, what should we do?It seems that the emperor can only agree to build a ship.Otherwise, as the emperor said, if the Japanese pirates rise again, or if the Japanese invade the two capitals, the Shang Kingdom will really be over that day.
