MTL - Emperor Zhengde of Ming Dynasty-Chapter 23 Fix it!
Inside the Xuanzheng Hall.
Wang Shouren, the headquarter of Jiayuguan in the northwest, won the victory, which made the Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao Longyan happy.
Although Zhu Houzhao had already sealed Wang Shouren, he still felt that it was not enough.
In the Northwest War, Zhu Houzhao saw Wang Shouren's outstanding military talent. He made a decisive decision, was brave and resolute, and what Wang Shouren did was just in line with Zhu Houzhao's ideas.
The Tartars in the northern Xinjiang have always been a concern for Zhu Houzhao. Zhu Yuanzhang repelled the Yuan army. They retreated to the grasslands and formed many tribes.
For a hundred years, the Tatars have always been the heartbreaker of the Ming Dynasty.
The Son of Heaven guards the country.
Where are you staying?
Are you guarding Youzhou? Or the Central Plains?
Who is guarding against?
Tartar? Or Japanese pirates?
These issues were all considered by Zhu Houzhao.
In the battle of the Northwest, Wang Shouren set fire to the Tartar army, shattering its vitality and making it impossible for him to recover for many years to come.
Will this Wang Shouren be an outstanding general of this era?
Above the court hall, Zhu Houzhao examined the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. The four ministers who took care of life left by Emperor Hongzhi were ignored by Hou Zhu, the **** of iron courage, Liu Jian, the first assistant of the cabinet, Li Dongyang, the second assistant, and Xie Qian, the minister of war and the crown prince.
Among these four people, Hou Zhu, God of Iron Courage, ignored his martial arts skills and became famous in the world. But also the most ambitious one. Secondly, Liu Jian is decisive, Li Dongyang is cautious and prudent, and Xie Qian is eloquent and eloquent.
Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others formed a cabinet. If the emperor did not go to court or preside over the government, they would be able to handle all government affairs.
Li Dongyang, the second assistant in the cabinet, can't be offended by anyone. In addition to handling government affairs in the courtroom, he likes to dance and write poetry and write poems. He never conflicts with others, and he is very cunning.
In the court, whether it is a minister of the court, an eunuch, or a relative, all have good relations with Li Dongyang.
The relationship between Cao Zhengchun and the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty was like water and fire. Many officials looked down on Cao Zhengchun, thinking that he was just a little eunuch.
Of course, Cao Zhengchun also sneered at the ministers in the court, but he always had a good relationship with Li Dongyang.
They often talked about the past and the present together, recited poems and matched each other, and in the taverns in the suburbs, the two often had a drunken break.
When Emperor Hongzhi was alive, he often let Li Dongyang enter the palace to accompany him. Since ancient times, monarchs have been lonely. In the Forbidden City, Li Dongyang was the only person who could chat with the emperor.
Perhaps it is this freedom and ease that allows Li Dongyang to go smoothly in the officialdom, and the changes of the ministers of the Central Committee and the Central Committee have been changing one after another, but this Li Dongyang's position has never changed.
The chief assistant Liu Jian was stinky and tough. He never made friends with people in the courtroom. It would be more difficult for any official to make friends with Liu Jian than to ascend to the sky, which also made him a clear reputation.
His good friend, in the entire court, is also the number of people who slapped.
However, it was precisely because of Liu Jian's character that when Emperor Hongzhi entrusted the orphan, he reassured him to entrust the prince to him, and asked him to make Zhu Houzhao a blessing.
Zhu Houzhao newly boarded the Great Treasure, and the Tatar army of 400,000 people went south. When the emperor could not be seen, the cabinet dispatched troops without delay.
Among the cabinet members, Liu Jian and Li Dongyang are not the most talented, but the most talented is Xie Qian, Minister of War.
Together with Liu Jian and Li Dongyang, he assisted the emperor with outstanding political achievements, and was called by the people at that time as the "Three Sages in the World".
At this time, Zhu Houzhaoxiong looked at the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty.
Among the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, there are people who are loyal, righteous, and courageous, and there are people who are loyal and treacherous. If you want to sit firmly on the throne, you must know people who are good at responsibilities, promote some people to important positions, and squeeze out those who are incompetent. .
The news of the defeat of the Tatars inspired the court for a long time. During this period of time, Emperor Zhengde issued many more decrees. Every decree hits the spot. His Majesty is full of strategies and makes everyone look at it with admiration.
A month ago, when the Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao ascended the throne, the civil and military people of the Manchu Dynasty were worried about him. Such a young emperor would be bewitched by eunuchs once he ascended the throne.
However, who would have thought that Emperor Zhengde would actually be able to see through the eunuch's bewitching and kill Liu Jin, the head of the **** who could not be brought down with all his hard work.
Until now, when Wang Shouren defeated the Tartars and His Majesty issued a decree, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty realized that the emperor was a rare hero!
Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, Xie Qian and others all burst into tears, and the Mingjun they were looking forward to finally arrived.
Zhu Houzhao looked at the minister of the court and said, "I am very happy that the Tartars are defeated, but I dare not stop for a moment. I am afraid that if I doze off a little, flies will fly around my head..."
Zhu Houzhao's voice swirled in the hall, like a golden stone hitting a bell, and it was deafening.
Zhu Houzhao stepped down from the dragon chair and walked to the center of the court, where all the ministers bowed their hands and bowed.
"I know that some of you don't want me to get better and better in the Ming Dynasty. They even show me like a plaything in my hand, thinking that I am just a three-year-old child who has just ascended the throne. How can I lead the ministers?"
In the hall, it quickly became quiet.
"I dare not wait!"
"Hmph, no matter, do you think that for more than a month, I have only been concerned about the bandits in the northwest, and have not understood you at all?"
"Li Liangcheng from the Censor's Office, have you been to Baihualou half a month ago?"
Hearing this, Li Liangcheng was already terrified.
He already knew that His Majesty was a decisive man, and basically everything he mastered was real.
But who told His Majesty about these?
Jin Yiwei? East factory? People from the West Factory?
Suddenly, Cao Zhengchun's figure appeared in his mind.
right! It must be him. As long as I report to this eunuch, I can freely criticize the civil servants in the court.
Li Liangcheng hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I did go to Baihualou half a month ago, but it was purely for drinking with a few friends."
Hearing this, Zhu Houzhao frowned slightly, this is so deceiving!
It seems that I don't see the Yellow River without tears, and I don't look back until I hit the southern wall!
Zhu Houzhao took out a memorial from his sleeve and threw it in front of Li Liangcheng.
Li Liangcheng was lucky, and he forgot what he said half a month ago when he was drinking.
But when he opened the memorial, it recorded the names of everyone present at the time and what they said.
Li Liangcheng immediately collapsed to the ground in fright, as if the underside of his crotch was suddenly wet.
"Hmph, how dare you speak so fast!"
"Where is the inner guard?"
Outside Xuanzheng Hall.
Jin Yiwei led Shen Lian with four bodyguards and ran in quickly.
"I cut this man's tongue to see that he dares to arbitrarily discuss state affairs."
"Yes!"
Soon, a few guards ran over to hold Li Liangcheng to the ground, Shen Lian swiftly took out the dagger and pliers from his waist, pried open Li Liangcheng's mouth, and forcibly pulled out his tongue, and then gave it to him from the root. A knife.
This time, Li Liangcheng, who was in pain, called his father and mother, but no matter how he shouted, he couldn't make a sound.
Looking at all this, Manchao Wenwu turned pale with fright, and no one dared to kick out loud.
Zhu Houzhao walked a few steps in the center of the hall with his hands behind his back,
Turning his head to look at the memorial in front of Li Liangcheng, it seemed that something was on his mind.
He turned around and said to Shen Lian, "Take all the thirteen people in this booklet and hand them over to the Ministry of Punishment for trial. Those who should be decapitated and those who should be dismissed should be dismissed. What I hate the most are those who fight in the nest."
"According to the order!"
Shen Lian cupped his hands and clasped his fists, his face showing the appearance of being willing to be Zhu Houzhao's eagle dog, which made people tremble.
At the same time, the twelve people who were with Li Liangcheng were frightened by Zhu Houzhao's orders, and began to beg for mercy on the main hall...
