Daming Junior Scholar

Not only Zhengde was dumbfounded, but everyone sitting here was also dumbfounded, especially Cao Yuan, He Jiaan was his favorite successor to the Minister of the Ministry of War, and he was thinking of sitting for him for a few more years until his qualifications were enough. , I personally handed over the position of Minister of the Ministry of War to him. Who would have thought that this should be a time to show loyalty, but he would come out like this. Are you crazy?

Thinking of this, before Zhengde could respond, Cao Yuan glared at He Jiaan: "Master He, do you know what nonsense you just said? Hurry up and take it back."

"Yes, Mr. He, you are still young, and there are some things you can't say on this occasion."

Yang Tinghe, who was still in a relationship with Cao Yuan just now, actually echoed Cao Yuan's words. The only thing they said was to tell He Jiaan not to waste his good future for a woman. Women are everywhere, but the future is lost. , This life can be lost.

On the other hand, Zhengde felt happy when he heard the two people's words, hesitated for a while, and finally asked with a smile: "Just now, the two Aiqings have already persuaded He Aiqing, how about this, I will ask you, either a pardon or a future , you can only choose one, which one do you choose?"

Chapter 1425 Entering Beijing as a Hostage

In everyone's eyes, no matter how important a woman is, how can she be rivaled by Dai Hualing on her head.

It is true that He Jiaan is really good enough to his woman, and he has fulfilled his responsibility by saying such a thing in front of the Long Live Lord. It's not hard to do.

Just when everyone was about to continue the topic just now, He Jiaan smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "I would like to take that pardon."

"...Eh?" Zhengde was taken aback for a moment, staring at Chen Qingzhi in a daze, but his mind was bewildered for a while, did he hear it wrong just now?Or was He Jiaan wrong?When his eyes shifted in disbelief to the expressions on other people's faces, he suddenly found that everyone, just like him, opened their mouths wide and looked at He Jia'an in amazement.

"Master He, you..." Cao Yuan stared at He Jia'an with a look of hatred, and he reminded him so, why doesn't he know how to cherish it, you don't grasp such a good opportunity for promotion, if you don't know how Another person pops up somewhere to snatch your position away, maybe you will never have such a good chance to be promoted in your life.

He Jiaan glanced at Cao Yuan apologetically, but shook his head resolutely, and said clearly again: "Your Majesty, minister He Jiaan is willing to exchange all the credit for Xie Qinhu's pardon."

If it was just now, he could still be fooled by not hearing clearly, but now he can hear clearly, and the ministers around him must not have heard it wrong. Thinking of this, Zhengde looked at He Jiaan with some complexity in his eyes, intending to look at He Jiaan again. I wanted to persuade him, but after another thought, I decided to forget it. He Jiaan must have made the most resolute choice.

"Okay, since He Aiqing has repeatedly asked, then I will personally write this pardon for you."

"Mr. He Jia'an, thank you for your kindness."

This is a great achievement in saving the emperor, so it was wasted by He Jiaan. Even Yang Tinghe, the chief assistant, couldn't understand He Jiaan's choice, but although he admired He Jiaan more, his position determined him He would not make a statement as easily as Cao Yuan did. In this way, he did not say a word until Zhengde's pardon was written.

A thin piece of paper has already erased all of He Jiaan's credit. Cao Yuan looked at it with distress for a while, but he was helpless. Seeing the joy on He Jiaan's face, he couldn't help but sigh Hum: "There is no cure."

This matter has just come to an end, and there is another important matter to be discussed before a result can be reached. After Zhengde looked around for a week, he said lightly: "All the lovers here are my ministers. You came here to ask you something important."

After finishing speaking, Zhengde paused slightly, glanced at Yang Tinghe's direction inadvertently, and then said: "That Zhang Yong has already confessed before his death that he has done many things for Uncle Ning, even sending the Fran cannon to him." Now that I have given it to King Ning, I would like to ask all my dear ones, what should I do next, should I fight or endure?"

Fighting means raising troops to attack King Ning.

Forbearance is to act as if nothing happened, the days go on like this, and the sun will rise as usual tomorrow.

Since this matter has already related to King Ning, there is no way to mix it up with other matters, but when it comes to this kind of matter, even Cao Yuan, who has always been used to charging forward, has become a tortoise with his head shrunk for a long time Don't say a word, let alone those few old scholars, headed by Liu Jian, with their eyes slightly closed, as if they were in a state of concentration.

After waiting for a while, Zhengde didn't see anyone replying to him, so he was a little angry. After scanning the faces of these people, he finally fell on Yang Tinghe's face. Who made him the most official in the room? What about that one?

"Yang Aiqing, in your opinion, what should I do?"

Now that it has been pointed out, Yang Tinghe has no way to pretend to be dead. After opening his eyes, he nodded: "Return to your majesty, in my opinion, since King Ning's rebellion is clear, we can't sit on the sidelines of King Ning's power." , it must be wiped out with the force of thunder, so the minister advocates fighting."

"Uh..." Zhengde nodded, and then asked sequentially: "What about the opinion of Grand Master Liu?"

"Since Yang Ge always said to fight, then I also think it's a good fight."

What an old fox, it would be fine if he won this battle, but if he lost, wouldn't he have to bear all the blame by himself.

Moreover, not only Liu Jian said so, but other people also agreed with Yang Tinghe's opinion unambiguously. Even Cao Yuan, who has always been hot-tempered, agreed with Yang Tinghe's opinion at this time. After that, Zhengde's eyes finally fell on He Jia'an who was at the end of the crowd.

"He Aiqing, what's your opinion?"

Zhengde just asked a casual formula. After all, so many people agreed to attack King Ning, He Jiaan should not have any different opinions. Just when Zhengde thought that this matter was settled, He Jiaan suddenly jumped A sentence came out: "Your Majesty, I think... you can't beat him."

"...Eh?" Zhengde was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but look at the ministers around him again, feeling at a loss in his heart, what happened to He Jiaan?Why did you sing against everyone as soon as you came up?Now that everyone agrees to attack King Ning, why did he directly veto it?

"He Aiqing, why can't you fight?" Zhengde asked curiously.

"Your Majesty, the reason why I can't fight is not that I have any selfishness, but that although we now know that King Ning has decided against it, we don't have any conclusive evidence to prove it. He handed over the handle to King Ning, so that even if he rebelled, it can be said that His Majesty forced you."

After hearing He Jia'an's words, everyone was stunned for a moment, but Cao Yuan was the first to react, and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Mr. He is right. We have reason in this matter, but if there is no evidence, who can prove it?" Does King Ning have the intention of rebelling? If our soldiers just press down on the border, he will say that His Majesty is domineering and forced him to rebel, and people's hearts will not necessarily be in one direction when he gets there."

Zhengde also nodded, and frowned slightly. It seems that there are too many disadvantages in raising troops. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but distressed: "This fight can't be fought, can I just bear him like this?"

"Of course you don't have to bear it." He Jia'an immediately said: "I have a plan to make King Ning care about one thing and lose another, so as to relieve His Majesty's worries."

"Oh? Tell me soon." Zhengde was overjoyed.

"It's actually very simple." He Jia'an continued: "Your Majesty knows the importance of Zhu Yi to King Ning. We only need to tell King Ning clearly and let Zhu Yi enter the capital as a hostage, so that he will not dare to act rashly. Just like the multiple-choice question His Majesty asked the minister just now, either hand over your son, or rebel ahead of time, there is absolutely no other way to go."

"It's a good plan, it really is a good plan." Zhengde was overjoyed immediately, patted the table and smiled: "This time I really want to see the expression on Uncle Ning's face. If we go down the road of rebellion, then the army will have enough reasons to suppress the rebellion.”

Chapter 1426 Japanese Cuisine

After everyone came out of the imperial study room, He Jiaan seemed to have become the most favored person in everyone's eyes. It seemed that Yang Tinghe had vaguely understood why He Jiaan didn't want credit, but the reason why he wanted the pardon. clearly.

Even if he has this credit, at most he can be promoted to the position of Minister of the Ministry of War, and now this position is occupied by Cao Yuan. If he wants to be promoted, he must have conflicts with Cao Yuan. Instead of doing this, it is better to sell Cao Yuan to save face Anyway, doing meritorious deeds is very common for He Jiaan, but after a few years, he will settle down a little bit, and when Cao Yuan will give up his position, it will not be a problem to be the Minister of the Ministry of War again.

And the most important thing is that King Ning's great contribution is waiting for him. Who doesn't know that his navy is not very far away from Nanchang. If King Ning really dares to rebel, he can arrive as quickly as possible. The credit for the rebellion is much greater than saving the emperor.

He Jiaan, He Jiaan, after all, this old man underestimates you too much.

Thinking of this, Yang Tinghe couldn't help walking a few quick steps, and when he got behind He Jiaan, he smiled loudly: "The old man owed Mr. He a meal when he was in the Xuan Mansion last time, but he couldn't catch Mr. He's shadow after he came back. It’s better to hit the sun, let’s make it today, if Mr. Cao is free, you might as well sit with him.”

"That's good. My old Cao has known Master Yang for so many years, and it seems that he has never had a guest invited by Master Yang. Today, he has borrowed all from Master He."

After hearing this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Yang Tinghe's face, and he quickly smiled and said, "Don't bring up the past, Mr. Cao. Today's meal must satisfy Mr. Cao."

After bidding farewell to the others, the three of them rode horses in sedan chairs to the outside of a unique courtyard. After getting off the sedan chair, Yang Tinghe pointed to the courtyard confidently and said, "You two adults are well-informed." People, but today the old man will definitely let you taste a different taste."

Following Yang Tinghe, the two of them entered the yard. At first glance, the yard was really the same, because it was winter, the inside of the yard also looked clear and cold, and the handymen in the yard didn't feel the same when they saw Yang Tinghe. Too much surprise, after such a simple salute, he walked away.

Yang Tinghe didn't see the outside, and led the two of them to a courtyard door. Someone had already opened the door in front, and when the three of them entered the main room of the courtyard, a wave of heat came from inside. .

"Hey, Master Yang actually knows such a good place?" Cao Yuan was not polite, and walked in on his own. After looking at the room here, he was dazed. How could this place be different from what he usually sees? Is the place different?

The layout of the building is not the same as usual. First of all, the door of this room is opened horizontally, and there are no tables and chairs in the room as usual. It is a table made of wooden boards with a layer of There are many braziers burning around the thin mattress.

"This..." Cao Yuan was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know where to sit, but Yang Tinghe laughed: "Master Cao is here for the first time, so I should not understand. I think it was the first time this old man came here. I was like Master Cao when I was there."

After finishing speaking, Yang Tinghe stretched out his hand and patted the air twice, then the side door was pulled open, and a woman dressed differently from the Daming woman came out, holding the three cushions in her hand one by one After putting it away, he knelt down and retreated.

"Hehe, it's interesting." Cao Yuan squeezed one of the cushions, and he was about to sit down, but before he could sit down, Yang Tinghe laughed and said, "Lord Cao, you're wrong again."

"Wrong again? Where is it wrong?" Cao Yuan asked with a puzzled face.

This time, Yang Tinghe did not explain, but turned to He Jiaan, and asked with a smile: "Master He has seen a lot, and he has traveled to many places in these years, I wonder if Mr. He knows the way of hospitality here? "
