Super Smuggling System

At this time, the other three cabinet ministers spoke one after another.

"That's right, Duke Wei, this will be opposed by the ministers of the DPRK and China."

"And six departments, three divisions...."

"Zen is located in the Holy Empress, and among the people there will definitely be damage to the Holy Empress's virtues, and there will be spread of the Empress' immoral remarks."

......

Zen is located in Zhang Yan, Empress Dowager Yi'an. Wei Zhongxian was also puzzled at first, why he gave the throne of Zen to a woman.

However, this is Li Mu's decision, no matter how hasty it is, it can only be so.

He is just an old slave, the Lord's decision, he can't refute it, and dare not refute it.

Moreover, he would also help to carry out the Zen Edict.

The only good thing is that in the past ten years, no matter whether it is the court or the local government, there have been many officials who have their hearts towards the Queen Mother.

Hearing the remarks of the three cabinet ministers, Wei Zhongxian got angry and patted the armrest of the Grand Master's chair, enduring the pain in his hand.

Glancing at the four cabinet ministers who stood up in front of him, he said: "I oppose, hasty, the six departments, and the three departments disagree, and the people will slander the Empress Dowager's virtue."

"Then the old man is here to tell you why the emperor wants to take the Zen seat with the queen mother."

"Empress Wu of the Tang Dynasty could ascend to the throne, why can't the empress dowager today?"

"For more than ten years, the queen mother has been in charge of the government, handling state affairs, and presiding over large and small court meetings. How is it different from the emperor? Why has she become a woman who can't take the throne now?"

"There are also folks slandering the empress dowager's virtue. Are you four cabinet ministers blind? Go and see, not to mention that the empress dowager in the capital has already given birth to Buddhas in thousands of families. How many people in Daming are thinking of the empress dowager's kindness and goodness? , How many families offer the Queen Mother as a living Bodhisattva?"

"Go and see, will the people slander the Empress Dowager's virtue?"

......

The four cabinet ministers looked at the agitated Wei Zhongxian, glanced at each other, and said in unison: "Wei Gong, calm down, we have no such intention."

Wei Zhongxian suppressed his excitement, picked up his teacup, took a sip of tea, calmed down, and said: "There is one more thing to inform the cabinet, that is, the general is back, and he is in the palace at this time, and the general also knows that the emperor Ask for Zen position, and express support.”

"For this reason, the general who just came back obeyed the emperor's order and dispatched the Jinyiwei wolf cavalry to return to Beijing quickly, and the turmoil in the Zen position has been stabilized."

"At the same time, Guan Ning's iron cavalry, who are sticking to the capital, are also put into combat readiness, in case someone deliberately plots against him when he is in Zen."

"So, the emperor's imperial edict for the throne of Zen has become a fact, and the cabinet can only act according to the emperor's will, regardless of whether the cabinet, the six departments, or the three departments agree."

"The Zen position and the imperial decree of the Empress Dowager will be announced to the world in the near future."

After finishing speaking, Wei Zhongxian ignored the four cabinet ministers and got up and left with Dongchang's entourage.

Chapter 469 The decision of the four elders

The general is back?

After Wei Zhongxian left, the four cabinet ministers were silent for a while in the central hall of the cabinet office.

a while.

The slightly younger cabinet minister asked: "Everyone, who is the general that Duke Wei mentioned, who can actually mobilize the wolf cavalry guards that only the queen mother can mobilize, and the Guanning iron cavalry."

"This......."

The gray-haired cabinet minister thought for a while and said, "That... I can't remember it for a while...."

The gray-haired cabinet minister hesitated again and again, then stretched out his hand doubtfully and said, "Could it be that..."

At the end.

The old cabinet minister took two steps in the middle hall, and thought to the three colleagues: "Everyone, if the old man thinks right, the general Wei Gong is talking about should be the one who suppressed the Jurchen rebels in Liaodong." , established a great reputation for Daming, the Hussar General, Li Mu, who disappeared shortly after the squadron returned to the court."

"Only this general has the right to order the entire Guanning Iron Cavalry into combat readiness without the permission of the queen mother, and because this general has another identity..."

The slightly younger cabinet minister asked with some doubts: "Another identity?"

At this time, the cabinet minister with two gray hairs interjected: "Yes, another identity, another identity of this general is the commander of the Jinyiwei, and he is also the commander of the Jinyiwei in Yongzhen, otherwise, it is impossible to mobilize the wolf. Rider."

The gray-haired cabinet minister recalled the memory in his mind and said: "So in the past ten years or so, Jin Yiwei has not had the post of commander. Everything is done by the Queen Mother personally inquiring about the North and South Town Fusi, and the town Fusi of various places."

"It is because of this general who has disappeared for more than ten years that the post of Commander of Jin Yiwei is pending."

The slightly younger cabinet minister suddenly realized: "Thinking about it, at that time, I should still be a local parent officer, and I should still be a small county magistrate."

The old cabinet minister laughed, and said to the slightly younger cabinet minister: "Yes, speaking of it, we should also thank the general. After all, without the inspection team, there would be no way for me to be appreciated by the queen mother later Entering the cabinet today."

Speaking of this, the cabinet minister with two gray hairs also said with emotion: "Speaking of which, there are really many legends about this general, and the reform of the military system was proposed by this general."

The gray-haired cabinet minister nodded and said: "Yes, I heard that the establishment of the Ming Dynasty Royal Bank on the basis of internal funds was also proposed by this general. Otherwise, how could the imperial treasury be so abundant? In the case of appropriating a huge amount of military expenditure, the national treasury can still save more and more every year."

The old cabinet minister thought for a while and said, "The only bad thing is that I heard that the imperial court has a 'World Support Plan', which was also proposed by this great general."

The gray-haired cabinet minister was stunned for a moment, and asked: "Are you talking about the policy that the vassal states around Ming Dynasty and neighboring countries should pay a large amount of grain, gold and silver every year and every month?"

The old cabinet minister nodded and said: "Yes, it is the tribute policy that Wei Gong single-handedly controlled. The old man just thinks that this plan is harmful to the peace of heaven, and it is not the work of a celestial kingdom."

The slightly younger cabinet minister disagreed and said: "It doesn't matter. Although my Ming Dynasty has the image of ZTE and has a strong military force, natural disasters continue. If we want to feed the people of the world, this plan is very necessary. Otherwise, the country of the Ming Dynasty will be threatened. There is the image of destruction."

Then, the conversation changed.

"The only worry is that the general is back, and according to Wei Gong's tone, the general fully supports the decision of the emperor and the queen mother."

"In this way, the edict of the Zen position will definitely be announced to the world, and there will definitely be waves in the Ming Dynasty, and the surrounding countries may take advantage of this wave to make waves."

The old cabinet minister was also worried: "The old man is not very opposed to the empress dowager ascending the throne and really taking over the imperial power. I just don't want the Ming Dynasty to be in such a good situation, because a Zen edict has become messy."

"Alas... a dilemma."

The gray-haired cabinet minister suggested: "Everyone, does the Queen Mother know about this matter? If the Queen Mother doesn't know, should I inform the Queen Mother in advance?"

The gray-haired cabinet minister hesitated and said: "Looking at Wei Gong's expression and words, it seems that the emperor made a sudden decision, and the queen mother didn't know about it."

The slightly younger cabinet minister immediately said: "Why don't I send someone to the Tiangong outside the city to report to the Empress Dowager, as for how to make a decision, it all depends on the Empress Dowager."

The old cabinet minister agreed: "It seems that this is the only way. Only the Queen Mother can make a decision on this matter, and we can't change it."

The gray-haired cabinet minister got up and came to the desk, picked up a brush, and unfolded a blank memorial from the desk, saying: "In this case, we will jointly draft a memorial for the Holy Queen."

"it is good."

The other three cabinet ministers replied together, and at the same time stood up and surrounded the gray-haired cabinet minister.
