General Constitution of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 71 Reluctance
Zhou Shangwen never cared about the twists and turns in court.

After noticing Yan Song's plan to plot against him, he immediately stood up and stared at Yan's father and son.

"Surnamed Yan, we are waiting for your reply."

Seeing that the situation was out of control, Yan Shifan hurried forward to stop it.

"Old man, this is in front of the emperor, not a place for you to run wild!"

Zhou Shangwen's complexion suddenly darkened, and the killing intent on his body suddenly became fierce.

That was the murderous aura brought out from the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood.

It wasn't until this moment that these high-ranking officials in the temple realized that Zhou Shangwen was not called a "parachutist" for nothing.

"We want you to understand the answer!"

Where have these senior officials from the cabinet and six ministries seen such a scene.

In an instant, Zhou Shangwen was shocked in place.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Two chimes sounded.

"There are different ways to go and go, and everyone is at ease."

"The Eryi design still exists, and there are hundreds of millions of thorns."

Jiajing appeared, and Zhou Shangwen gave up resentfully.

Everyone present got up quickly.

"The way of heaven assists virtue, Haiyu Xianning, holy bow and all blessings."

Jiajing walked straight to the dragon chair.

"My Ming Dynasty is rich all over the world, border customs have their own way, and the imperial court has the imperial court's way."

"The two capitals and thirteen provinces are big enough to accommodate and must accommodate different ways. When all the ways are safe, the world can be safe."

"You are all towering giant trees of my Ming Dynasty. My country and society are still there, and I am still there. Why should you be suspicious of each other?"

Jiajing sat on the dragon chair, but waved to everyone in front of him.

"Excuse me, Yanzhang, Mr. Yange, please sit down too."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

As he said this, Jiajing's eyes turned to Zhang Juzheng who was in the distance.

"The discussion on Hetao was already discussed by the Ministry of War last year, and all the important criminals have been punished. Why did you mention it again today?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Shangwen became anxious immediately.

"Your Majesty, the Hetao is gone, so we'll have to suffer on the nine sides..."

"I asked Zhang Qing about it."

Jiajing pushed Zhou Shangwen back impatiently.

But Zhang Juzheng cupped his hands towards Jiajing and said: "Father, Xia Yan's crime is unforgivable, but Hetao's argument is not wrong!"

Immediately, Yan Shifan rebuked angrily: "Slightly open the frontier provocation, and the people are poisoned, can't this be regarded as a mistake?"

Zhang Juzheng was afraid that Yan Shifan would speak, so he hurriedly said:
"According to Mr. Xiaoge, is it true that the Emperor Taizu Gao's Northern Expedition was also a slap in the face?! Emperor Cheng Zuwen's five expeditions to Mobei, was it also a slap in the face?"

Zhang Juzheng's words came to an abrupt end here.

Yan Shifan, who was held back by Zhang Juzheng, had a mouthful of old blood in his chest.

Tell me, why don't you continue talking?
Why didn't you talk about Emperor Yingzongrui's Northern Expedition? !

On this occasion, I am afraid that if you look at it together, you can criticize Zhu Qizhen tactfully alone, but if you deliberately put Zhu Qizhen together with Taizu and Chengzu, then you will not be scolding Zhu Qizhen but Zhu Qizhen. home.

Seeing Yan Shifan's deflated appearance, Zhou Shangwen sat aside and nodded repeatedly.

"Your Majesty, he is right!"

Yan Shifan changed the subject, and said suddenly: "Hasn't Zeng Mi already calculated it? The total cost of re-covering is 2000 taels, and the annual income of the imperial court is so much. How do you re-set it?! Or you Zhang The family in Huguang is so rich that they don't even pay attention to so much money?!"

Knowing that Yan Shifan put a big hat on Zhang Juzheng, Zhou Shangwen wanted to ask for help, but he opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to speak.

I can only scratch my ears and cheeks in a hurry.

Zhang Juzheng still didn't change his face.

"Zhang doesn't know what 2000 million taels is."

"But Zhang knows that if the imperial court is rich every year, then the imperial court does not need to have hundreds of officials, and does not need to have a cabinet!"

Zhou Shangwen slapped his thigh suddenly.

"That's what it means! The money is full, what do you need!"

Jiajing sat on the dragon chair in silence, and as Zhang Juzheng pressed forward step by step, even Xu Jie, who was beside him, could not stand still.

"Uncle! Conquering the barren with all the power of the country, you...you are really happy!"

While saying this, Xu Jie kept winking at Zhang Juzheng.

It's just that when Zhang Juzheng looked at this benefactor at this time, his eyes were full of disappointment.

"Teacher, that's the old land of our ancestors! How can a student become such a great success?!"

Xu Jie looked at his beloved apprentice in disbelief, opened his mouth but didn't say a word.

Yan Shifan gritted his teeth and stared at Zhang Juzheng.

"Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Juzheng, Xia Yan has just been killed for less than a month, are you sincerely trying not to let Junfu live a good year?"

"Yan Shifan! What nonsense are you talking about?!"

Yan Song noticed that Yan Shifan was deliberately talking about Jiajing, and immediately realized that something was wrong.

"Mr. Xiaoge, your father is the father of all people in the world. Even if you and I keep silent, will your father feel better knowing that the people in Hetao have left their homes?!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present shut their mouths and turned to look at Jiajing's attitude.

Because no one can answer these words, only Jiajing can answer them, which is forcing Jiajing to speak.

Jiajing threw the copper hammer in his hand and straightened his back.

"I have three virtues."

"It's called compassion."

"It's called frugality."

"Say, don't dare to be the first in the world."

"The people in Hetao are displaced, how can I turn a deaf ear to the world and enjoy peace? If I am such a son of heaven, the sky will hate it and the people will abandon it."

Yan Shifan was stunned in place.

broken.

I was drawn into it myself.

Jiajing was just waiting for him to blame him!

Yan Song glared at Yan Shifan with hatred.

The smile on Jiajing's face grew stronger.

"Earlier, I said that it is necessary to discuss again, but it is really the person who discusses the arrangement."

"Zeng Mi's playbook is still kept in Si Li's prison."

Looking at Jiajing in front of him, Yan Song lowered his head and said, "But, Father Jun..."

The monarch and his ministers have a tacit understanding. With the words Yan Song, Jiajing guessed the attitude of the officials, and interrupted Yan Song directly:
"I know, it's difficult for you."

"It's difficult for me too."

"But I hope that all the ministers can remember that there are thousands of difficulties, and the people are the most difficult."

"It's hard for you and me, but it's easy for the people."

"The Hetao discussion is still a discussion after all. It's not about mobilizing troops directly. The more difficult it is, the more it needs to be discussed. Maybe it will be discussed, and the solution will come out."

Xu Jie and Yan Song reacted first.

The matter has come to this point, even if they want to stop the Hetao discussion, they can't stop it.

I can only hurry down the donkey.

"My father is merciful."

The two fell to their knees first, followed by everyone behind them.

Looking at the crowd in front of him, Jiajing had a slight smile on his face.

Jiajing didn't expect that such a piece of "Daming Treasure Banknote" printed by himself in Hetao Zhiyi could be used again after spending all the money.

"Since all the ministers have no opinion on this matter."

"Then we're going to make it difficult?"

Xu Jie, Yan Song and others hurriedly said in unison: "It is the duty of a minister to devote oneself to the king's affairs."

Yan Shifan, who was kneeling on the ground, stared at Xu Jie beside him.

One Ning Jue is not enough.

Now comes another Zhang Juzheng.

How many talents did you recruit in Xu Jie's Dingwei Division!
Jiajing had a bright smile on his face, but the faces of the six nine ministers were all ashen.

Hetao Discussion.

See you again!
