Daming: From the end of Hongwu

This is ingenious.

It's a bit attractive to generals, but it's indifferent to civil servants, that's all.

After Zhu Di thought for a while, he patiently comforted Chen Tianping and the two, telling them that he knew about this matter, and he would definitely not sit idly by.

After the two of Chen Tianping went down.

Zhu Di glanced at all the courtiers and said: "Everyone knows about this matter, let's talk about it, what are your opinions."

Zhen Wu was the first to stand up immediately.

As the vanguard, he said angrily: "Your Majesty, of course we were beaten. Annan Li Jiyao and those people joined forces to deceive us. Can this be tolerated? If we are only deceived, it is not a big deal , but they still deceived you, Your Majesty, who are you? You are the emperor of our Ming Dynasty, isn’t it the Ming Dynasty who deceived you? And isn’t the Ming Dynasty the tens of millions of people who deceived our Ming Dynasty? Loyal to His Majesty, full of love and compassion for the people, you know that I will never bear this matter, and I have to ask here, that bastard, dare to endure this kind of thing without the eyes of the monarch and the heart of the people? I can't fucking see this kind of villain stealing the temple, come and come, whoever can't bear it, stand up and let me see."

As he spoke, Zhen Wu looked at the civil servants.

All the civil servants were shocked.

What is this nonsense?

Fuck.

How can you wear the hat so high with one shot.

Who has no king?Who has no people at heart?Who is the villain again?You can't talk nonsense with just one mouth.

Zhu Di was also a little dazed. He looked at Zhen Wu who was filled with righteous indignation, his eyelids couldn't help twitching, and he couldn't help thinking, this damn thing can really cause trouble by throwing it out.

After looking at each other among the civil servants, one person finally stood up.

Xia Yuanji looked at Zhen Wu bitterly and said: "Mr. Zhao, I might have to be that villain first." After that, he looked at Zhu Di and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know how to make a better decision on this matter, but if Your Majesty wants to raise troops , the minister can only say that he has no money."

Zhu Di did not speak.

Zhen Wu immediately retorted: "Fart, do you really think I've been in Liaodong for a long time? You have money for immigration, disaster relief, and river access, but when you co-author Xingbing, you have no money?"

Xia Yuanji looked at Zhen Wu, and said in a calm manner: "There were still some, but didn't Mr. Zhao know that he had transported grain and grass to Shuntian and Liaodong for two consecutive years to prepare for the military? Shuntian and Liaodong used to store a lot of grain Feng, how to consume it, I think Zhao Guogong knows it."

hiss.

Zhen Wu ate a lot of grain and grass in Beiping and Liaodong during the Jingnan disaster, so he wondered where it was consumed.

As for the important towns on the northern border, it would be impossible not to stock up on grain and grass.

Originally, Zhen Wu had prepared a lot of words to say, but Xia Yuanji's words were a little bit on Zhen Wu's fate.

Annan wants to fight, and Mongolia has to guard against it.

Seeing this, Xie Jin also stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the land of Annan has been of no benefit to us since ancient times, and the people of Annan have repeated more and more times. If I, Ming Dynasty, want to send troops, the gain will not be worth the loss." One by one, they talked about the pros and cons, and even talked about how many soldiers and horses will be dispatched, and how much food will be spent.

And the other civil servants spoke up, as if they had a backbone, and they all began to talk about their opinions, most of them opposed sending troops.

Zhen Wu frowned, and took a peek at Zhu Di. He put his hat on just now, and no one dared to refute it for a while. Logically speaking, with the tacit understanding between him and Zhu Di, Zhu Di had already caught the high hat and knocked on it. Set the general tone.

But for some reason, today's Zhu Di is a little out of order.

Seeing Zhen Wu was slightly frustrated at this time, Zhang Yu opened his eyes and stood up and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is related to my Ming's prestige among the Southeast Asian countries. You must not sit idly by. If the prestige is lost, the southern border will be destroyed." Being harassed, I'm afraid it will be an annoyance in the future, no matter how much money you have, you have to take care of it, no matter how much you have no benefit, you have to stop the enemy, it's better to bite your teeth now and settle it once and for all."

Zhen Wu laughed, and secretly gave Zhang Yu a thumbs up.

Zhang Yu's speech was still level, and he refuted Xia Yuanji and Xie Jin's words in one sentence.

Zhen Wu suddenly became more energetic, and began to argue with Xia Yuanji, Xie Jin and the others, and the end of Zhen Wu and Zhang Yu's clear-cut stand immediately made many ministers come out to support them.

Above the court hall, the civil and military officials suddenly became a mess.

It's not logical for big bosses to quarrel.

There was nothing more to say, so he threw out a sentence: "You see that Chen Tianping, the old and the young, are so pitiful, and you don't have any compassion? Have you read all the books in the dog's stomach?"

Or just say: "You are still a high official in the court, if someone deceives His Majesty like this, what about your loyalty?"

If it doesn't work, just throw the lore.

"I don't care this time, if there is a problem on the southern border in the future, do you dare to cut off your head to forgive?"

Xie Jin's teeth were itchy when they were asked these words, and when they also used this logic to fight back, for example, "the Ministry of Households has no money, why do you live in the world" and so on.

Zhen Wu took the lead and said: "Isn't there a lord who is responsible for major internal affairs, anyway, I don't care, I know that I can't let your majesty be indifferent after being deceived."

This kind of cheating is very effective, and the civil servants can't say anything wrong.

Zhen Wu and the others themselves govern the world no matter what.

And it is their responsibility to lead troops to fight and crusade against non-officials.

Just like that, the arrogance of civil servants was gradually suppressed by Zhen Wu.

In the end, Xia Yuanji sighed and looked at Zhen Wu and asked, "Mr. Zhao, if you raise an army, do you dare to use your head as a guarantee to bring down Annan?"

Zhen Wu grinned, a burst of self-confidence flourished from his whole body, he said decisively: "Not only I dare, but if any of my subordinates dare to say no, I will let you take my head."

Xia Yuanji looked at Zhen Wu, didn't speak for a long time, and finally retreated quietly without saying a word.

Daming has such a strong general and army, what else can he say as a minister of the household department.

As soon as Xia Yuanji retreated like this, the voices of civil servants' rebuttals became smaller and smaller.

At this time, Zhen Wu looked at Zhu Di with a smile, as if showing off with Zhu Di in his eyes, look, it's done, your old man ordered to send troops.

However, Zhu Di frowned at this moment, and slowly turned his eyes to Zhu Gaoxu who had not spoken.

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu stood up and smiled at Zhen Wu: "Mr. Zhao, even if Da Ming wants to intervene in this matter, there is no need to raise troops. After all, it is true that Da Ming is short of money and food. There is no need to waste money and food in vain."

"What does the King of Han mean?" Zhen Wu asked with a frown.

Zhu Gaoxu turned to look at Zhu Di, bowed and said, "Father, why don't you ask Xin Annan first, after all, it's just Chen Tianping's one-sided opinion, there may be some misunderstanding in it, maybe Li Jishou knew about Chen Tianping Afterwards, the Tiejun, who is intimidated by our Ming Dynasty, will ask for an order to welcome Chen Tianping back. This is the best of both worlds, which not only demonstrates the prestige of our Ming Dynasty, but also saves money, food and military strength."

After hearing this, Zhen Wu immediately wanted to laugh: "Does the King of Han think this is possible?"

"Why is it impossible?" Zhu Gaoxu said.

And the already mute group of civil servants started jumping up and down again, echoing Zhu Gaoxu's suggestion one by one, and bluntly saying that Zhu Gaoxu's suggestion was good, what did they say, "Even if the Ming Dynasty raises troops, it should be polite first and then soldiers. You should always ask before you talk, and you can't just listen to one-sided words." , he made a rash decision, and besides, the identity of Chen Tianping was still in doubt, and he would talk about other things after a detailed investigation. '

Zhen Wu almost laughed out of anger.

Chen Tianping's identity is easy to confirm. A group of people from Du Sheng are in the capital. Let the two meet each other. Naturally, the truth will be revealed. This fact cannot be faked. As for writing a letter to Li Jishou, a person with a background in rebellion will be afraid of other people's threats ?

What's more, it's about Zheng He's voyage to the West, even if Li Jishou welcomes Chen Tianping back to China and wants to let Li Jishou out of the East China Sea, how long will it take.

How long will it take for people from Ming Dynasty to meddle in Annan's internal affairs?

Just when Zhen Wu was about to refute them one by one.

Zhu Di suddenly spoke up.

"Let's do it according to the King of Han's wishes. First, write to Annan and see what the other side has to say."

After saying this, Zhen Wu was dumbfounded.

There are some things that other people didn't expect, or they have other careful thoughts, but Zhu Di shouldn't be like this, and these things were agreed between Zhu Di and him, why did he suddenly change his mind.

Zhu Gaoxu really moved Zhu Di? !

Zhu Di didn't feel embarrassed to look at Zhen Wu, so he got up and shook his sleeves, "Back to court."

And after Zhu Di left Fengtian Palace, Zhen Wu still hadn't recovered from the shock. The accident had hit him too hard, and he had been thinking about it for a long time, and he couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.

Zhu Gaoxu smiled triumphantly at Zhen Wu.

As for the other civil servants, they also started to leave triumphantly, but Zhu Gaochi came to Zhen Wu's side and sighed empathetically, there was no way, he was almost used to his father pampering his second child.

But the next moment, Zhen Wu took it back in a daze of disappointment, and his eyes became firm again.

He did a detailed investigation of Li Jishou, and he didn't think that Li Jishou would be willing to be manipulated by Daming. Doing so would only give Li Jishou more time to prepare.

They still have to raise troops to fight in the end.

……

Chapter 377 - Give Zhu Gaoxu a Chance

What kind of person is Li Jisha?

There is a very interesting event that can explain one or two things. It is reported that in his later years, Emperor Annan Taishang Chen Yizong realized that Li Jishou's power was too great and threatened the throne of the Chen Dynasty. Unfortunately, Chen Yizong was old and unable to control it. To prevent Li Jishu from usurping the throne, he ordered the painter to draw the four auxiliary pictures, and gave it to Li Jishu himself before his death.

These four assistants are Duke Zhou assisting King Zhou Cheng in Chinese history, Huo Guang assisting Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty, Zhuge Liang assisting the Queen of Shu, and Su Xiancheng assisting Li Gaozong in Vietnamese history.

Chen Yizong's intentions are obvious, and he also imitated Liu Bei's exhortation to Zhuge Liang before his death, and said with Li Jishou that after his death, the young master can assist, and Li Jishou will assist him. If it is mediocre, he can take it himself.

He hoped to use this to influence Li Jisha.

But Li Jishou didn't want to be Zhuge Liang, he wanted to learn from Cao Cao, and he promised that he would die after death, but when Chen Yizong died, he started to eliminate dissidents, and imitated Cao Cao's method of moving the capital to Xuchang, setting up two capitals in the east and the west, and dividing the capital into Xuchang. From Thang Long, the eastern capital, to Thanh Hoa, the western capital, to dilute the influence of the veteran officials of the Chen Dynasty. In the end, Chen Shunzong was forced to hang himself to abdicate. Killed Chen Shunzong.

Needless to say, such a person is cunning and insidious, but he can also be seen as resolute and decisive.

With such a person in Annan, it is a simple matter for Da Ming to intervene in Annan's internal affairs.

Zhang Wu and the others all surrounded him at this moment.

They were a little worried about Zhen Wu.

After all, before Zhen Wu strongly advocated sending troops to conquer, but now Zhu Di refuted it, how could he feel better.

After Zhen Wu saw it, he waved his hands at them: "Okay, you can do whatever you want, and you don't need to surround me."

Zhang Wu worried: "Brother..."

Zhen Wu glared at Zhang Wu, but looked at them with good intentions, and finally sighed: "You don't have to do this, you don't know the inside story about this matter, forget it, I won't tell you any more, I will discuss with His Majesty again."

After finishing speaking, Zhen Wu strode to find Zhu Di again.

After Zhen Wu saw Zhu Di in Zhu Di's study, Zhu Di was not surprised at all, but when Zhen Wu was about to speak, he directly blocked Zhen Wu's words.

"Don't talk about it first, I'll have someone call my second child. When the second child comes, you and the second child will talk about it. These days I have been tortured by him and there is really nothing I can do."

Zhen Wu frowned, and was about to speak again, when there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the door.

Zhu Gaoxu hurried over.

He probably didn't expect Zhen Wu to be there. After seeing Zhen Wu, he felt a little guilty instinctively, and he hesitated a lot. Seeing this, Zhu Di reprimanded displeasedly: "Don't let me get out of here, what happened to you?" , I won’t wipe your ass for you, you can repeat what you told me before, and your brother-in-law.”

Zhu Gaoxu stepped forward, called Zhu Di cowardly father, turned around and called Zhen Wu brother-in-law.

Zhen Wu didn't bother to talk to Zhu Gaoxu, just took a look at Zhu Gaoxu, and then turned to Zhu Di again, but his mouth also became a family name.

"Father, I can't talk to him."

Zhen Wu said with some complaints: "We have agreed before, but you suddenly put me on the sidelines, who can bear it, besides, you also know the situation in Annan, and what kind of character is Li Jishou? I know better, how could he obediently take Chen Tianping back to Annan? You should write to ask first. In addition to humiliating yourself, you can only give Li Jiyak more time to prepare for resisting me. Why bother? .”

Zhu Di didn't speak, Zhu Gaoxu was anxious first.

"Brother-in-law, I don't agree with what you said. I can guarantee that Li Jishou will take Chen Tianping back obediently."

"you promise?"

Zhen Wu glanced at Zhu Gaoxu: "What guarantee do you have?"

Zhu Gaoxu's expression froze for a moment, and then he straightened his neck and said, "Since I promised, I have made plans for this. Now that I've talked about it today, I will talk about it with my brother-in-law."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Gaoxu became serious and said: "Let me ask my brother-in-law, our Daming is targeting Annan for the maintenance of Nanyang pirates and Nanyang trade routes."

"Not bad." Zhen Wu admitted, then looked at Zhu Gaoxu's serious look, and became curious.

Zhu Gaoxu seldom had such a serious discussion of political affairs, which made Zhen Wu wonder, did Zhu Gaoxu really have a brain?

Or did you underestimate it before?Or he went to Liaodong for too long, Zhu Gaoxu made great progress, and he committed empiricism?

That being the case, let's have a good chat with Zhu Gaoxu.

For a moment, Zhen Wu looked at Zhu Gaoxu with serious eyes.

Zhu Gaoxu said solemnly: "Since it is for this purpose, does it matter who is in charge of Annan? What we want is their obedience, and if Li Jishou brings Chen Tianping back to Annan, I, Da Ming, can take this opportunity to intervene in Annan's affairs. In this way, the Ming Dynasty, the Hu family, and the Chen family have become a three-party force. My brother-in-law once told me that the best form of stability is the three-party force, and the three-party check and balance is the most powerful after the Ming Dynasty, and it is bound to be the most beneficial to us. .”

Zhen Wu couldn't help but sneered, and he said, "Okay, I don't care how you can guarantee that Li Jishou will obediently take Chen Tianping back, since you know that this matter is about cleaning up Nanyang pirates and Nanyang trade, then you should Knowing that Annan needs iron-blooded suppression and purge is in our best interest, as for the three-party effort? The power struggle in peace, you may think it is too simple."

"It's so simple. My brother-in-law can use Chen Tianping's hand to support Chen Tianping, and I can also take the opportunity to restrain Li Jishang. We have the entire Ming Dynasty behind us, with tens of millions of strong troops to support, whether it is Chen Tianping or Li Jishou How dare Yak ignore our existence, and how dare Yak do more things in our Nanyang trade."

Zhen Wu rolled his eyes and said: "You know that in the struggle for power under peace, it is most difficult for outsiders to gain power, whether it is Chen Tianping or Li Jishou, if we don't cleanse Annan's powerful people, even if we interfere in Annan's internal affairs, we can only hide Remote control behind the scenes, so it is inevitable to be controlled by others, if the situation you want is not formed at that time, what will happen to Nanyang trade? Will it run aground?"

Having said that, Zhen Wu turned his head to look at Zhu Di and said, "My father must have a deep understanding of this kind of thing. When Jing Nan attacked, what decision my father wanted to make could be done with one word. The officials have their own considerations, and the people of the world are also in the heart of the emperor. The Western Regions, the Northern Territory, and the Southern Territory, the situation is not extremely complicated, and the decision does not need to be carefully considered before making a careful decision. Now there is a chance to clean Annan, If you miss this opportunity, are you arguing with Annan's courtiers in order to implement a policy?"

"It won't be like this." Zhu Gaoxu said affirmatively: "Never, since I dare to propose this, I will absolutely control the Annan government in the hands of Daming."

"I don't even dare to say that in the political struggle, Li Jishu was manipulated in the palm of my hand. How can you be so sure?"

"Brother-in-law won't believe me once?" Zhu Gaoxu looked at Zhen Wu with his head raised.
