The Ming Dynasty started with caution

Chapter 686 One sentence is worth ten thousand sentences

That group of civil servants would roar as soon as the emperor and the prince left the capital.

Zhu Houzhao asked happily: "The last time I went to the border, the princes beat their chests and fell. How could I let my father personally conquer it?"

Yan Chengjin shook his head: "All the officials knelt down to admonish the Fengtian Palace to ask for His Majesty's decree."

Zhu Houzhao's eyes narrowed and his smile narrowed slightly as he stared at Yan Chengjin: "Do you want me to persuade my father?"

At this moment, Lao Gao, a dog official, should be kneeling in Fengtian Hall to remonstrate.

There must be something going on when you come to the East Palace to look for him.

Yan Chengjin said: "It is difficult for the officials to kneel down and remonstrate, but it is difficult to change His Majesty's mind. I would like to ask Your Highness to lend a helping hand to the officials."

"When my father goes to war, I can also go out to lead troops from all directions. This is a good thing. Lao Gao, please leave it alone." Zhu Houzhao became more and more excited as he talked.

"When the emperor goes on an expedition, His Highness knows very well who will supervise the country. He has to review hundreds of memorials a day and works overtime until midnight every day. Do you really want to dissuade him?" Yan Chengjin raised his head and looked at Zhu Houzhao.

If the Dog Emperor passes the throne to me, I will be the one doing the work.

Zhu Houzhao hesitated a little.

At this time, Wenhua Hall.

Emperor Hongzhi spread out a piece of white paper, swayed his hand from side to side, and quickly wrote the word "quiet".

He frowned and looked at Xiao Jing: "All officials are still kneeling in Fengtian Hall?"

Xiao Jing said: "No, Master Yan is gone, but the other officials are still there."

I am grateful to the Yanqing family for being considerate of my feelings.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "In the eighteen years since I came to the throne, I have worked hard to govern. I have achieved civilized governance, but I still lack martial arts."

Xiao Jing did not dare to make any judgment.

At this moment, the young eunuch came to report: "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is here."

Zhu Houzhao walked into the hall, as if he had become a well-behaved scholar, "My son, I heard that my father wants to lead a military expedition in person?"

"Do you want me to take you with me?" Emperor Hongzhi's eyes narrowed.

Zhu Houzhao lost his mind: "Is it okay?"

Emperor Hongzhi glared at him coldly, Zhu Houzhi understood, and quickly lowered his head: "I came here this time to advise my father not to go to war personally.

The border troops and the Tatars did not fight much on the grassland, especially the Beijing camp. They fought away from home and lost the geographical advantage.

When the father personally conquered the country, hundreds of officials and military generals were concerned, and they all opposed the father, losing harmony.

However, the weather has not yet been determined, and if the father and emperor of these three do not take advantage of them, they may be defeated. "

Xiao Jing's heart skipped a beat, and he secretly observed Emperor Hongzhi's expression, then quickly lowered his head.

Your Majesty is angry! The kind that gets furious.

Emperor Hongzhi stared at Zhu Houzhao coldly: "Did Yan Chengjin teach you to come here to ask for advice?"

With the prince's temperament, he longed for him to go on an expedition as soon as possible, so how could he come to persuade him.

"Yes, Lao Gao asked his son to come."

Zhu Hou looked after Emperor Hongzhi's expression and quickly took action.

"Chuang Yan Chengjin!"

Outside Wenhua Hall, Yan Chengjin followed Zhu Houzhao to the front door of the hall.

He had just gone to the East Palace, and Zhu Houzhao came to advise him again. Your Majesty will definitely summon him.

Soon, the young eunuch came out to announce that Yan Chengjin strode into the palace and bowed slightly: "Your Majesty, Yan Chengjin, has met."

Zhu Houzhao was seen kneeling in the corner, and Xiao Jing was as silent as a cicada.

From the atmosphere of the main hall, it can be sensed that Emperor Hongzhi's anger is like a huge wave, surging and rolling.

A low voice came: "Are you also here to admonish me?"

"Yes, I also think that Your Majesty cannot conquer the country in person."

Emperor Hongzhi mentioned Lang Hao again: "I know that you want to exonerate Marquis Anding and let him perform meritorious service."

Yan Chengjin's heart moved slightly. He came here just to fight for the opportunity to conquer the Tatars for his father.

It is a serious crime for a military commander to lose his city. If he is pardoned first, it will disrupt military law and discipline.

Your Majesty will not allow it.

Only by making amends can the officials be unable to inflict crimes on Dad, and it is inevitable that he will be removed from his official position in the tripartite system.

"This is not out of selfish motives. Although the British can also fight, the Tatars travel thousands of miles and can only be destroyed by encircling them.

His Majesty's personal expedition cannot change the outcome. "

Wei Qing and Huo Qubing attacked the Xiongnu with the intention of encircling and suppressing them.

The Tatars fled very quickly, backed by the northern steppes.

Like a fish in a mud pond, it runs from east to west and is constantly suppressed.

Emperor Hongzhi raised his head slightly: "What if I take you with me to join the expedition?"

Zhu Houzhao wanted to take a nap, but when he heard that Emperor Hongzhi was going to take Yan Chengjin to the expedition in person, his eyes suddenly opened.

Yan Chengjin was stunned. Your Majesty actually wanted him to be a military advisor?

By the way...he is still the supervisor of the Beijing camp!

This is crazy...

"I am weak and sick. There is a disease on the grassland called Gaoyuanhong. I am afraid that I will get sick and affect the court, so I really can't leave the capital."

Yan Chengjin suspected that someone would stab him to death among the rebels.

After all, the restructuring harmed the interests of too many officials. In the film Infernal Affairs, the plot about the mole was also derived from historical materials.

Emperor Hongzhi knew that this son did not dare to leave the capital, so he did not reveal it: "If I were to pass him on to the throne, given the prince's temperament, he would definitely go to war with Dayan Khan himself.

Nowadays, the imperial court has a strong army and strong horses, which is no longer comparable to the imperial court in the past. I am commanding at the border and will not leave the border.

If the Tatars can be pacified and there will be no more wars on the nine sides, millions of taels of military pay can be saved a year, and it will be a prosperous period. "

"But your Majesty doesn't have to go to war personally. The British can lead their army north. If your Majesty goes to war, the chance of winning is 40%.

If His Majesty does not go to war, the chance of winning is 80%. "

"Why?"

"Your Majesty does not understand the art of war and cannot judge whether an army is right or wrong. Fighting is like chess. Victory or defeat depends on the person holding the chess piece.

When your Majesty went to the front line, he was giving blind orders. "

"Yan Chengjin! You are so brave!"

A loud shout resounded through the Wenhua Hall.

Xiao Jingyun was so scared that he fell to the ground. The eunuchs who were a little timid could not help but shed tears.

Zhu Houzhao was thoughtful. I was right. Old Gao, this dog official, had some backbone.

Yan Chengjin took out three gold medals of immunity from death and presented them with both hands. The implication was that Your Majesty, you can't kill me. I can be exempted from death three times.

At this time, Fengtian Hall.

Liu Jian moved his knees with a painful expression.

Li Dongyang saw this and ordered the eunuchs beside him to bring the futons. Each of them was given one and prepared to spend the night here.

"Yan Chengjin is really a piece of shit! He fled from the battlefield. It was just kneeling to remonstrate. It wouldn't cost him his life!"

"This guy claims to be sick all day. In my opinion, he is just pretending."

The censors were outspoken. Yan Chengjin, this dog official, was simply a scum of the civil servants.

He actually left a bunch of them and ran away by himself.

Li Dongyang blushed. Other sons-in-law would be proud to talk about it, but his son-in-law was too ashamed to speak.

"Mr. Li, you shouldn't have betrothed him your daughter in marriage. This should be recorded in the history books."

What would the historians write?

Emperor Hongzhi wanted to lead the army in person, and all the officials advised him against it. Only Yan Chengjin, the Grand Secretary of the Dongge, fled in the face of the enemy.

He ran away!

Li Dongyang sighed and shook his head, unable to argue.

It was the hour of You, and the sun set behind the palace wall.

After kneeling for two hours, Liu Jian, Zeng Jian and other old ministers could not hold on any longer and moved their knees.

"Mr. Liu and the Duke of Guo, please go back first. We can kneel here to make our remonstrances. If there is any news, we will send someone to inform you."

"How can I feel at ease if I go back?" Liu Jian waved his hand.

At this moment, Xiao Jing came in holding Fuzhan: "Gentlemen, go back."

Liu Jian said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty wants to lead the army in person. This is a major event related to the rise and fall of the court. How can we go back!"

"Your Majesty will not lead the army in person. The ones who will lead the army are Marquis Anding and Wang Shouren."

This!

All the officials were stunned, motionless like wood.

This morning, His Majesty was still swearing.

"Eunuch Xiao, what is going on? Why did His Majesty suddenly change his mind?" Li Dongyang was puzzled.

"Yan Chengjin advised in Wenhua Hall, and His Majesty revoked the order."

Yan Chengjin? A person?

All the officials were shocked and speechless for a long time as if they were struck by thunder.
