Beiyang new warlord

"Old slave obeys!"

Did Wang Chengen pick up the mirror box and put it in the internal treasury?It has not yet been received by the emperor.Wen Tiren was absolutely terrific, offering bribes to the dignified emperor of Ming Dynasty, but what is enough to go down in the annals of history is that Zhu Youjian really accepted it.

After reaping the benefits, the emperor's face seemed to look a lot better. Knowing that Wen Tiren's visit this night must not be as simple as a mirror, he asked again with a smile.

"Aiqing, what is the Mao family asking for? Let Aiqing enter the palace overnight in such a hurry?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, the Mao family didn't even know that the Japanese came here by cheating tribute. They tried to catch the power of my Daming and help him fight for the power of the family. He sent someone to find the old man, and wanted the old man to serve as a tribute to the Mao family. Dredge, don't judge crimes!"

"Heh, the Mao family really has a heart!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Youjian's teeth itch, it's so embarrassing!Since he ascended the throne, the first time we met, the instigator was Mao Jue.

However, Wen Tiren seldom opened his mouth when the things were collected. This face should be given to the chief assistant. Moreover, Chongzhen hated Wu Mengyan even more. Generals can't handle things. It's understandable. They are vulgar warriors. , you literati still know how to do things?With a cold snort, the emperor softened his mouth.

"It's all right to send someone to make a decree to reprimand you."

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks it's impossible!"

"Oh?"

Chongzhen is really strange, the old guy entered the palace in the middle of the night, and even gave things to himself, not for the Mao family's intercession, or for something?

Speaking of this, Wen Tiren's face immediately turned into a fighter among cocks, and he kowtowed majestically.

"Your Majesty, in the early court today, it has been proclaimed that Toyotomi Matsumaru is the lord of Fusang, and since Toyotomi's family is a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, and since the vassals have rebellious officials and thieves and the suzerain does not care about it, how can the Ming Dynasty deter all nations in the world in the future? Everyone dares to commit the next crime?"

"But now that the imperial court is in trouble, lacking money and salaries, it is unrealistic to send out all the country like the Battle of Renchen, and this matter was provoked by the Dongjiang Mao family. Who will bear the responsibility if he does not delay it? The old minister thinks that if this is the case, the imperial court A strict decree can be issued, and Yu Da, the governor of Denglai Road, will be the supervisor, and the Dongjiang army will be supervised to conquer the Japanese country, and the payment will be paid by Denglai Road."

"In this way, the imperial court's face is saved, and Dongjiang's punishment has been achieved. Regardless of the outcome of the battle, the ministers will definitely praise your majesty as a wise king, and get the best of both worlds. What do you think?"

Not to mention, the Chinese language is really broad and profound. The same thing, let Song Xiance say that Dongjiang avoided the war, which has great benefits, but when it comes to Wen Tiren's mouth, it becomes Dongjiang to work hard, and the disadvantages are great.More importantly, it also saved the court's face!

His righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, the Emperor Chongzhen was really moved inexplicably. From all over the country, only the boss of the Wen Pavilion was still thinking about his face in the middle of the night. nodded.

"Ge Lao's words are justified! Tomorrow morning, Ge Lao will raise it in court! Let the ministers discuss it!"

This is similar to the unspoken rules of the officialdom, if you don't refuse, it's pretty close, and Wen Tiren is also very happy. In this way, Wu Mengyan's two henchmen have been kept, and he will be more popular and important in the court. What's more, taking the opportunity to teach Luo Xiaoyi a lesson, Yao Ximeng and his gang are stingy at the Donglin Party Qingliu, killing three birds with one stone!

With a sinister smile in his eyes, the old guy kowtowed heavily.

"The minister obeys the order!"

Chapter 266. Overwhelming

Politics is so fucking unfair sometimes. When you are still gearing up to get started, you don’t know that you have lost, and it’s even more frightening because you don’t know that you have lost, and you are still biting the bullet and making progress.

Although Luo Xiaoyi and Yao Ximeng belong to the Donglin Party, they are different from old foxes like Qian Qianyi and Ruan Dacheng. When Qian Qianyi is in trouble, he can ask the eunuch Cao Huachun for help. The eunuchs are in the same rank, and the capital regards them as real news.

As a result, the Great Court Meeting after Riyu had just been held, and Yao Ximeng was already the first to jump out like a cannon fodder censor, angrily holding up the memorial and knelt down in the atrium, pointing at the Honglu at the other end. Si Shaoqing Wu Mengyan roared.

"The humble official Yao Ximeng impeached Honglu Temple for dereliction of duty. It was a great achievement to lure wolves into the house! Thinking that I am in the Ming Dynasty, I was deceived by a few dilapidated children, and I was able to meet Tianyan in court, trying to deceive me. The power of the Ming Dynasty, vying for the power of his family! Trapped Your Majesty is in an embarrassing place, this teasing is really a crime worthy of death!"

"I dare you, Your Majesty, please take down this proposal and hand it over to the Yushitai Council!"

Don't look at the impassioned words of this man, this is a standard routine in the Ming Dynasty's party struggle. First take down these pawns, hand them over to interrogation, and then there is nothing wrong with incriminating them, and then he can bite the annoying political leaders of the other party in. The reason why Wen Tiren was favored by Chongzhen was that he claimed to be non-party, which made the Emperor Chongzhen who hated party struggles think highly of him. Wen Tiren bites between cronies, and he is finished!

Everyone saw how angry the Chongzhen Emperor was yesterday. He looked at Wu Mengyan with a complacent murderous look, especially mentioning Chongzhen's embarrassment was even more fanciful. He seemed to have seen the emperor's angry expression. The look in the eyes, and the sharpness of the officials attacking him together.

However, it is true that there are crowds to attack them. There are still many small officials who claim to be Qingliu censors and officials. After Yao Ximeng, they stood up and kowtowed in the middle hall to impeach. However, Zhu Youjian, who was sitting on the dragon chair, was unexpectedly calm, showing no trace of joy or anger. The emperor's face was the weathervane of the officials, and then he looked at the contented expression of Wen Tiren, a senior scholar of the capital , hesitating, the truly important ministers stopped one by one, and none of them followed up.

After letting these little officials like Shao Zhanshi yell for a long time, Ni Yuanlu, the censor of Zuodu, bit the bullet and stood up, yelling loudly.

"Presumptuous! This is the court hall, how can you allow you to roar and make noise! ​​Hurry up and be responsible, where are the warriors on duty?"

It is indeed terrifying for these officials to kneel and pout their buttocks together, and the emperor has no choice but to retreat, but in such a situation, no one cares about it, and many blindly obedient officials really shut their mouths in guilt. Yes, someone actually retreated back secretly, but now the arrow is on the string and has to be fired, Luo Xiaoyi still pointed at Wu Mengyan angrily, and growled.

"Your Majesty, please punish this crime!"

"Wu Mengyan, tell me! They impeach you, can you plead guilty?"

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen's words rang out. There was no anger as expected, but a feeling of laziness, which made the important officials who were trying to figure out the emperor's mind feel a little bit more heartbroken, and became even more sluggish.

Yesterday was a panic like a bereaved dog. He was almost sent to Yushitai to surrender, but he was chased back, and he was reminded by Master Wen near the palace gate. Now Wu Mengyan is full of confidence, walking straight with his waist straight, Confident and confident, he also went out of court and knelt in the middle hall, and kowtowed heavily.

"Your Majesty, Lord Yao's impeachment is purely a frame-up, and I can plead not guilty!"

"Shameless, if it wasn't for your incompetence in handling affairs, would you be able to be tricked into the imperial court by that rundown son of the Toyotomi family and tricked into obtaining the canonization by His Majesty, would it drag me, Daming, into this precarious situation?"

Yao Ximeng was so angry that his hair almost stood up, who knew that Wu Mengyan slapped his chest again when he straightened up and looked at him.

"Lord Yao, is it true that the envoys of Fengchen's family are the Emperor Daxing and canonize the lord of Fusang? Fusang considers himself a vassal, and my Ming Dynasty should accept it? Is it possible for the suzerain to lend a helping hand when the country is in trouble? Yongle, Jiajing, Wanli Dynasty There are precedents, how come to Master Yao, it is Wu's fault, are you saying that His Majesty is not the co-lord of the world?"

The hat was too big, and Yao Ximeng was stunned for a while, but at this moment, Luo Xiaoyi finally lost his head in desperation, and angrily held up the memorial beside him.

"Your Majesty, now my dynasty is troubled by internal and external troubles. Outside there are slaves to restrict Liaodong. Inside there are thieves who have even entered the Daming Mansion. The soldiers are short of pay and clothing. They are suffering from all corners of the country. The people are displaced and starved to death. How can you be innocent of the court's troubles, even if you are very happy to cause trouble for the court?"

"Your Majesty, please take the next dog!"

The face of Emperor Chongzhen, who had always been calm, finally turned cloudy here.

If there was no countermeasure yesterday, he would have hated Wu Mengyan to death, but this time, Wen Tiren has already offered a small plan, and he doesn't care about Wu Mengyan anymore, and he can even win the face of interfering in the Japanese country. Quite satisfying the emperor's vanity.

Unfortunately, Luo Xiaoyi came to expose his faults, exposing all the embarrassing bottoms that the emperor didn't want to mention. If he is not hated by others, who will be hated?

But whatever Chongzhen's status, even if he was extremely angry, he couldn't stand up and fight with Luo Xiaoyi. At this time, it was the turn of His Majesty's loyal horseman, University scholar Wen Tiren, to appear on the stage. But full of indignation, he knelt out of court.

"Luo Xiaoyi, presumptuous! My emperor is the lord of sages. Now there is peace in the world. It's nothing more than a disease of moss and mustard. The chaos of the court is nothing more than harmless. You are talking nonsense here, slandering your majesty, and messing with my heart. What's on your mind?"

There is no lack of heart to be a Shangguan, this scolding suddenly brought Luo Xiaoyi back to his senses, seeing the emperor's face that was already gloomy like rain, he also wished to slap himself in the face, and hurriedly kowtowed to apologize.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for speaking nonsense!"

But at this time it was hard to get off the tiger, he still pointed at Wu Mengyan and impeached him.

"However, the country's affairs are difficult at this time, and it is really inappropriate to cause more troubles. This person Wu Mengyan does not share the country's worries, but he is only making mistakes. Your Majesty, please punish this person!"

"Your Majesty, please punish this person!"

Then, another group of officials knelt and kowtowed, but this time, the momentum was smaller than last time, and the number of people was even less than half, and I don't know how many people sneaked back.

"Master Ni, what do you think?"

Emperor, cherish your words like gold! Just one sentence made the Zuodu Yushi feel like he was sitting on a brazier, and he had no choice but to stand out of the court and kneel on the ground, but this old guy Ni Yuanlu started playing Come on.

"Your Majesty, if you want to send troops to Japan, what town should you send soldiers from, and where will your salary come from?"

This question is practical enough to directly cover up the problem just now, who is right and who is wrong, so as not to stand in line on the spot, and also secretly leans towards Qingliu. If the court has no choice but to embarrass the emperor, then Wu Mengyan still has to Unlucky, when the emperor gets angry, there is no reason for it. This is a feudal society!
