Wanli 1592

Chapter 251 The emperor wants to reorganize the court?
According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, officials made meritorious service, civil servants were added officials, and military generals were conferred titles. Li Rusong was white, and rewards were not difficult. The only problem was that his father was Li Chengliang, who was also an earl. Under the background of trying every means to suppress Li Chengliang, if both father and son are ennobled, it will only boost Li Chengliang's momentum. Therefore, Zhu Yijun is not very decisive.

Needless to say, Xiao Ruxun, the first achievement in the Korean War, solved many major problems for Ming Dynasty. It not only reflects military talent, but also reflects certain political talent. He is a handsome talent with both civil and military skills. trump card.

However, he was already an earl and a chief soldier before, and he could not continue to increase his official position. He had to start from the title, but he was added to the marquis at the age of 23. If he made great achievements in the future, how should he be rewarded?Will he get into an embarrassing situation where there is nothing to seal?

Song Yingchang is a civil servant, so he doesn't need to think too much about conferring titles, but the left servant of the Ministry of War is the Minister of the Ministry of War, but the current minister of the Ministry of War, Shi Xing, has made no mistakes. How could he mention Song Yingchang to this position for no reason? Shi Xing drove off?

This is what Ye Mengxiong thought about when he made great achievements before. Zhu Yijun acquiesced in the civil officials' behavior of criticizing Ye Mengxiong, but Song Yingchang was not wrong.Send him out to be a governor?
Zhu Yijun's troubles and Wang Xijue can also understand that Xiao Ruxun and Li Rusong are still military generals no matter how hard they are, and they will not toss about the overall situation of the court, but Song Yingchang is different. The position of the coach is in charge of logistics, without any mistakes, laying a solid foundation for the army to attack , This is Song Yingchang's contribution. Logically speaking, such a great contribution should indeed be promoted to a higher rank as a reward, but Song Yingchang is already the left servant of the Ministry of War.

The contradiction between purely civil officials and civil commanders is no smaller than the contradiction between civil and military officials. Since the Wang Yangming incident, the contradictions between civil officials and civil commanders have always existed and cannot be reconciled. Compared with military generals, civil officials are more afraid of civil officials. And there is a rhetoric that Wen Shuai must not be allowed to enter the cabinet.

Even so, you have to appreciate it. If Song Yingchang follows in the footsteps of Ye Mengxiong, there will probably be a lot of discussion in the court and the public. If you will be wise and protect yourself, no one will be willing to take up a similar position in the end, and if you do this, the civil servants will be too ugly.

Wang Xijue decided to try it out first.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that regardless of Song Yingchang's affairs, Xiao Ruxun is already an earl at a young age, and the title should not be conferred again. After all, he still has a long time to go, and he has to continue to fight, otherwise there will be nothing left to confer in the end. It’s not beautiful, it’s better to reward some money and land, and then seal a post in the capital camp, and transfer to the capital from the bitter cold area in the northwest, wouldn’t it be the best reward for a frontier general?”

Zhu Yijun frowned unobtrusively, and then said: "Then how to reward Li Rusong?"

"The old minister observed that Li Rusong fought sixteen times in this battle, and each time he was the vanguard. He took the lead and was unstoppable. The total number of cavalry under his command beheaded more than [-] ranks. Such a great contribution, plus Li Rusong's age is indeed not young, It's time to add a title to show honor and favor, and then transfer to Liaodong Commander-in-chief, so that his son can inherit his father's career and stabilize Liaodong's heart, I wonder if your majesty thinks it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Xijue saw Zhu Yijun looking at him with a smile that was not a smile.

"You, you really want to protect the calf! What's the matter? You can't help but want to protect him after being soft-edged by Li Chengliang?"

Wang Xijue was so shocked that he quickly knelt down on the ground and said loudly: "Your Majesty, forgive me! Your Majesty has learned from you! The veteran has no selfishness! He has no connection with Li Chengliang! Your Majesty!"

Zhu Yijun picked up the tea bowl, took a sip of tea, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

"Okay, okay, get up, don't just kneel at every turn, you are a real minister of the humerus, what's the matter with kneeling all the time? Okay, I don't care what you had with Li Chengliang in the past, this general It's not a secret to find a backer in Beijing, I've heard about it, but I didn't expect that Li Chengliang's backer is really not small."

The more Zhu Yijun said, the more Wang Xijue regretted it.

Why test the emperor!Isn't this just looking for trouble? !
oops! ! !

"The old minister is guilty! The old minister is guilty!!"

The emperor made his words so clear, he must have some conclusive evidence in his hand, it must be the information obtained by Jin Yiwei or Dongchang's fans, if he still denies it, it is purely courting death, the emperor will definitely not If he will let himself go, the only way is to admit and plead guilty, and let the emperor know that he is an honest man, will admit his mistakes, and will not form a party for personal gain.

How could the emperor not taboo about collusion between Zaifu ministers and generals?

When Zhang Juzheng was in charge of the six divisions, the famous generals like Li Chengliang and Qi Jiguang were just dogs under him. Zhu Yijun was restless day and night. When he was most afraid, he was even afraid that when he woke up, Zhang Juzheng would wear a dragon robe and lead soldiers and horses. Standing outside his palace, he asked himself to abdicate, but now, Zhu Yijun felt that it was necessary for him to start to change this situation, otherwise every minister would have generals who served under his command, what is the difference between this and the princes?
Civilian politics should not be the greatest threat to imperial power. Military power is the threat. Civilian politics prevailed in Ming Dynasty because civil servants would not rebel. Where is it placed?In the end, the emperor's control over the army was not as good as the chancellor's control over the army, so what should we do?
Please beg for mercy!

Seeing Wang Xijue kneeling on the ground begging for mercy, Zhu Yijun felt a little more comfortable. He just signed an alliance agreement with Wang Xijue today, so he didn't want to offend Wang Xijue immediately, so he stood up and supported Wang Xijue. He lifted him up from the ground, lightly dusted the dust on his body, and said in a gentle voice: "I don't want to blame you, but it's time to change the unhealthy tendencies in the government. Those things in the past are all here. It was fully exposed during the battle, which shocked me even when I saw it.

If you don’t change it, you can’t do it. If you don’t change it, the country of Ming Dynasty will perish in my hands. I don’t want to be the king of the subjugated country. I don’t have the face to meet my ancestors in the underground, so I still have to rely on it. For a veteran like you, if you do something for me, you must become that role model. If you can't do it yourself, how can you ask others to do it?So, Wang Qing, you have to deal with some things yourself. "

Zhu Yijun's words were very clear, but also very cryptic. There was not a single dirty word, but Wang Xijue kept spitting. He realized that this battle had brought about a big change to the emperor. He seems to want to reorganize the court!

Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

he does not know.
