Daming: Wanted to be a small landlord, but was forced to ascend the throne

Chapter 413

Wang Shouren was not as excited as Wu Wending.

He opened the tabloid in a steady and orderly manner, and quickly browsed through the contents.

"My lord! My lord! Are you all right?"

Wu Wending watched Wang Shouren finish reading the newspaper with his eyes closed, and he didn't say a word for a long time. His thin body still looked a little tense, which was very different from his usual spontaneity.

"Shi Tai, Your Majesty is not unreliable, but too reliable! He...he may be really different!"

Wang Shouren opened his eyes, looked at Wu Wending with clear eyes, and said firmly.

Wu Wending has known Wang Shouren for many years. He has a relatively direct personality and works in a hurry. His father, Wu Xiu, was a councilor in Guizhou, so he is a member of a family of officials.

Wu Wending became a Jinshi in the 12th year of Hongzhi. He is not only good at reading, but also has physical strength. He is very talented, and he is naturally proud.

If there is anyone he wants to convince, it must be Wang Shouren!

Although Wu Wending is two years older than Wang Shouren, Wu Wending exists like a younger brother in front of Wang Shouren.

This younger brother-like attitude is not only due to the level of official position and status, but also a kind of appreciation and admiration.

"My lord, what do you mean? I mean, is this emperor a little unreliable? It was indeed beyond our expectations before. Our achievements in pacifying Zhu Chenhao and the others have been suppressed by Yang Ting and that guy. Fortunately, the new king is powerful. Killed them directly, but now his operation is not brain...Let's not talk about it, how can he budget for the Tiangou eclipse? Even if he can budget, he can't make such a big fanfare. You must know that the palace is on fire, it is already on fire The topping, if it becomes a joke again this time, all the things he did before will be basically over. There are many Yang Tinghe's remnants in the court, and when they catch him, it will be very difficult for him to stand up of……"

Wu Wending said eagerly.

As a scholar, it would be absolutely hypocritical to say that after many years of hard work, it was not for the sake of fame and fortune, that he could flex his muscles in the court and realize a man's grand ambition of making contributions.

The so-called retiring, showing off fame and wealth as dung, is often just a kind of helpless or unwilling to make progress.

Since studying hard, there must be something to ask for!

The same goes for Wu Wending, including Wang Shouren!

The new monarch killed those stubborn enemies who had been entrenched in the court for many years, and promoted them to the Nanjing Ministry of War. For them, that was definitely a new hope.

Although it is said that there is a gathering place for the elderly in Nanjing in name.

But this kind of statement is aimed at those officials who worked in Beijing in the early days and were later sent to Nanjing. From high to low, that is demotion, punishment, and of course they are sent out for retirement.

But for some people who are local officials, if they are promoted to work in Nanjing, it is a transitional place. If they do well, they can easily be promoted to Shangjing.

After all, it is not common to jump from a local to an important position in Beijing, and it is easy to be questioned by those officials in the court.

Airborne leaders, even though they look arrogant, usually have backers, but when they do things, they will not be so smooth and imposing.

"Shi Tai! The emperor is different from what you think. He is not a person who acts blindly. We can know through one incident. Maybe he can really calculate the time of the Tiangou eclipse."

Wang Shouren put down the tabloid in his hand, stroked his beard with a smile and said.

He already had the original agitation, and returned to his original composure.

"My lord, do you think His Majesty can calculate the day of the Tengu Eclipse? How is it possible? Can that thing be calculated? Could it be that His Majesty really has special abilities to see the opportunity first?"

Wu Wending was still a little puzzled.

"Shi Tai, do you believe in ghosts and gods?"

Wang Shouren looked directly at Wu Wending and asked.

"My lord, what... how should I put it? My parents and family members, including the people around me, all say that such things exist. I am dubious with people. Maybe there are such things, but they don't have much to do with people. If there are any , so many people have died, I’m afraid it’s already flooded everywhere! Anyway, when I’m doing things, I don’t think about those things, let alone blindly believe in those... my lord, what do you ask those things for?”

Wu Wending was a little confused.

But Wang Shouren understood what he meant. He was not firm about the theory of ghosts and gods, but the influence of the surrounding environment and so many questions about the powerful unknown world made people feel awe and doubt sometimes.

"Shi Tai, I don't believe in ghosts and gods. Your Majesty should also be a person who doesn't believe in ghosts and gods. Maybe this dog food day can really be calculated. The calendar we know now is the result of those people with blond hair and blue eyes. , Taizu asked someone to translate it for us to use, and there are many things in it that are really good."

"I also heard that some places in Frankie have begun to study this astronomical phenomenon. I heard that some people in Frankie think that the place we live in is a big ball. There is a man named Helen who has already supported King Frankie. Sailing, if we can go back in a circle, it means that the place where we live is a round sky, like a round ball, they have now reached the Nanyang side, and now it is still unclear where they are! But they I have roughly determined my thoughts. Although the outside world is very mysterious, people can sometimes figure it out."

Wang Shouren explained.

"My lord, what you said is getting more and more confused. Anyway, those Frangians are different from us. I only know that their guns and gunpowder are really powerful. You mean that there are capable people around His Majesty who can calculate the celestial phenomena. ?"

"Yes! It can be said that he is definitely not a simple person from His Majesty's entry into Beijing to the various measures he has taken so far! His Majesty should be very convinced of the celestial phenomenon this time, otherwise he would not have imposed martial law on the same day in Beijing! And This kind of news should have been given to us by His Majesty! If there are no accidents, it should spread to various places in Ming Dynasty."

"My lord, what do you mean, those tabloids should..."

Wu Wending suddenly realized that he is also a smart person, and it is really not easy to connect a series of events.

"Yes, those tabloids should be written by His Majesty! I have been paying attention to the tabloids in Beijing for the past few years, and I feel that they appear too suddenly. But when it is connected with His Majesty's actions every time, everything makes sense! But there is still a Doubtful, two years before your Majesty ascended the throne, the tabloids in the capital had already appeared, and helped the late emperor out of several crises. You must know that your Majesty was supposed to be the heir in Anlu Prefecture at that time. No, it seems that he hadn’t done so yet. Prince! If those tabloids were founded by the late emperor..."

"But the late emperor didn't seem to use those tabloids to help himself. If he could pay attention to it, it shouldn't be so..."

Wu Wending raised doubts.

"That's what you said! Unless the people who founded the tabloid first started to help the late emperor, and then they were not valued by the late emperor. After His Majesty came to power, those people were loyal to His Majesty, but it still doesn't make sense, and I can't tell where it is." ... I won't talk about it beforehand! In short, if I'm wrong, His Majesty is doing this with such great fanfare this time, it should be to use this opportunity to eradicate those remnants of the imperial court, so that they will no longer be threatened by the so-called ghosts!"

"Shi Tai!"

"grown ups?"

"Your Majesty is in need! We might as well help and continue to help spread this incident!"

……

March 1522, 27, the first year of Jiajing, was sunny.

The Shangjing Street is empty, and groups of patrolling soldiers pass by occasionally.
