[Ming Dynasty] I seem to know too much
Chapter 70
Chen Chuming met Zhu Chenhao on a winter afternoon, of course he didn't call him by that name at that time.
He called himself Huang Ning.
Huang Ning is a very interesting person. After Chen Chuming talked with him once in the teahouse, he couldn't forget it. A few days later, when he came out of his shift, he felt grateful, and went around to that teahouse again, and found him in his old seat.
Chen Chuming worked in the palace and was used to going in and out, so he naturally knew that Huang Ning was unusual. As a businessman, he seemed to carry too much extravagance, and he was often followed by two people who looked like Lianjiazi .
But he felt very comfortable chatting with Huang Ning, and he didn't care about it.
People always have their privacy.
What's more, Huang Ning was so angry with him, it seemed that Huang Ning could understand his thoughts in every word he said.
Moreover, regarding Chen Chuming's own face blindness, it was precisely because of Huang Ning's advice that he no longer suffered from it from now on.
Even Chen Chuming's own family members couldn't understand Chen Chuming's pain. If they hadn't watched him since childhood, they wouldn't even know what this face blindness was.
But Huang Ning understood it all at once, and even helped Chen Chuming come up with a suitable method, which made the difficulties in his daily life disappear all at once.
Huang Ning never inquired about his affairs in the palace, nor was he curious about his life as a Jinyiwei. If they met each other, they were very comfortable chatting with each other.
How could Chen Chuming be unhappy when he met such a friend without arrogance at all, and he became closer to Huang Ning.Huang Ning is knowledgeable, chatting about the world, no matter what kind of topic he can pick up quickly, and he can also make two tricks with Chen Chuming when he has nothing to do.
On the eve of his birthday, Huang Ning came to look for him, saying that he needed to leave Beijing to go home, and his home was in the south of the Yangtze River. If he went out this time, it would be difficult for him to come back to the capital again. He asked Chen Chuming what his plan was?
At that time, Chen Chuming was also thinking about this matter. The family members were planning to give him a place for activities, and they didn't want him to lose his energy by staying in the palace all the time.
At that time, he still wanted to go to the northwest or south to kill the enemy, but he was suppressed by his family. When he suddenly heard Huang Ning's question, he felt a lot more relaxed.
If the friend is in the south, it is not bad for him to go to the south.
The two chatted to the place where they started to fight and drink, and got drunk.When Chen Chuming woke up the next day, Huang Ning was sleeping next to him, and he fled in despair in the face of his shameful reaction.
Facing the burgeoning emotions, Chen Chuming was too afraid to go to Huang Ning for a long time.It wasn't until Jiao Shizhi talked to him that night that Chen Chuming suddenly realized.
It's his own business that he likes Huang Ning, it has nothing to do with Huang Ning himself, it seems good to have someone in his heart silently.As for his future, since he can be in the same place as the person he likes, that would be even better, wouldn't it?
However, Chen Chuming, who thought so, was robbed before he arrived at the guard to which he belonged.
Robber - Huang Ning.
Or maybe he should be called Zhu Chenhao.
King Ning.
Chen Chuming looked at the magnificent man in front of him, and felt that he had stepped on the darkness.He covered his face, but no tears could flow.He has already escaped so far, but he was still easily caught. If he had known earlier, he should have fought hard, and the things he knew should be spread out first...
……
But now Jiao Shizhi, who was far away in the capital, immediately started to get busy after the emperor gave an order.
No matter how "idlely" he guards the palace on the surface, he is still a member of the Jinyiwei. Now that Emperor Zhengde has mobilized the power of the entire Jinyiwei, it means that he also jumps into it and starts to get busy.
On the road from Ningxia to the imperial court, the channel of news transmission has been cut off.Now, as Jinyiwei, who are also spread all over the place, they began to play their role at this time.
From Emperor Hongzhi to Emperor Zhengde more than ten years ago, Jinyiwei has completely lost its former glory. Under the shackles of successive generations of commanders, it restrained its minions. Now that the shackles have been loosened, news from various places has continuously spread to Beijing. .After receiving the order from the imperial court, the guards near the important town also sent a small team to spy on them. If they got the real situation, they would attack immediately.
Four days later, the Northwest returned. Ningxia was surrounded by [-] troops and horses.Upon hearing this news, Emperor Zhengde angrily reprimanded the case in the court, and then threw out a memorial.
The above is the return of the guerrilla general Qiu Yue, which is the report about Ningxia.
As mentioned above, Ningxia is still under siege. Jiang Han, the general soldier of Ningxia, is swearing to resist, and the surrounding towns rush to help, forming a stalemate. However, none of the seven reports to the residence in a row responded, so he had to leapfrog the report. Relying on Jin Yiwei and some tricks of the rivers and lakes, this memorial was sent to the capital.
"The news about Qiu Yue was ten days ago. And it's been ten days since this memorial was reported. The Qing family said, whose words should I believe?" Emperor Zhengde said through gritted teeth.
The government and the public were silent, and no one dared to stand up under the emperor's anger.
"Liu Daxia!"
"The minister is here."
"Based on your experience, which one is right and which one is wrong?"
Zhu Houzhao named the Minister of War.
Liu Daxia came out and said: "Your Majesty, according to the content of these two memorials, I believe that Qiu Yue's statement is correct. If Ningxia is breached now, then the capital should have heard the news now, but the interior is still silent. This It’s not something that can be stopped by blocking the report. It’s just that the last report also has its merits. Since the salt merchants received silver in exchange for the supply of border granaries from Taicang, since then the salt merchants have no longer cared about whether the border granaries are in surplus .And the emperor also knows that it is no longer a matter of a day or two for Biantian to be encroached on. At this time, Ningxia... probably has no food."
Such a reform was done by Ye Qi, Minister of the Household Department, during the Hongzhi period.Although this move temporarily benefited the court, it caused a lot of harm.He not only destroyed the original inherent system, but also caused disputes that followed.
Hearing that Liu Daxia put all the blame on himself, Ye Qi came out to argue, and the two exchanged a few words before being interrupted impatiently by Zhu Houzhao, "I'm not here to listen to you shrews cursing. Liu Qing's family and My judgment is the same, I have ordered people to send military rations there before, if they can arrive as scheduled, they should arrive in time."
Ye Qi looked at the emperor in surprise, and said, "Your Majesty, I have not received the order." got silver.
Emperor Zhengde glanced at him, and said in a low voice: "I still don't like the little money from the national treasury. By the time you're all done, Ningxia will be breached! What I want now is speed, can you afford it?"
Everyone is speechless, if they can successfully dispatch troops and generals so easily, then they don't need the charm of the emperor.If it was the past, Zhu Houzhao would definitely argue with the courtiers for a long time, and he couldn't easily take advantage of them, but now that the matter was imminent, he would not be stingy about such matters, and secretly allocated the silver taels from the inner treasury.
As soon as the matter was over, Zhu Houzhao turned to say a few words beside Jiao Shizhi. Jiao Shizhi took the imperial decree from him, stood in front of him and spread it out and said, "To make a long story short, I want to investigate people. If there is a petty move, hurry up and clean it up." , if you are accidentally injured, I will not compensate you."
The courtiers who were about to listen to the announcement of an important event: ...
In fact, even Jiao Shizhi, who was reciting the decree, said: ...
However, the current emperor is so casual, and the matter is really urgent, the courtiers can only hold their noses and endure it.
Those who are well-informed, or those who are astute, can see a lot of things from the decree specially promulgated by Emperor Zhengde, and their hearts tremble. It seems that the emperor wants to...
No matter what Emperor Zhengde really wanted, when the second batch of food and grass was shipped to Ningxia, Jin Yiwei started to act, fiercely, just like his original reputation.
Jin Yiwei flocked viciously into various corners that had been involved in the past, and then were restrained to leave, and people were arrested one after another.Perhaps when a person is drinking tea in a teahouse, someone rushes in and takes him away, even if that person is an official of the third or fourth rank.
Emperor Zhengde firmly suppressed all dissatisfaction. Even if someone was bumped to death on the pillar of the court, he just looked at the red and white colors indifferently and said: "Even after thousands of years, it is recorded in the history books that I am Tyrant, so what? Am I the kind of person who taboos fame? I have nothing to do with the flood after his death!"
"Now you still need to thank me, thank you for not having any wrongful killings. Everyone arrested by Jin Yiwei has complete criminal evidence. If anyone has any dissatisfaction, from today to the beginning of next month, I promise You go to Beizhen Fusi to investigate, and you can check all the information except secrets. I want to see, do you still have to act for the so-called rules, or do things for me in a down-to-earth manner!"
"Besides pedantic dogma, can't you stuff anything useful in your mind?!"
Emperor Zhengde's sharp sarcasm made the courtiers very angry, but Liu Jian suppressed this wave of emotions.He looked deeply at the high-spirited emperor in the hall, and said: "The emperor's words are true. If the ministers really find out the injustice, can the emperor restrain himself."
Zhu Houde spread his hands, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "You can go if you want."
All of a sudden, Beizhen Fusi, which had never been dared to set foot in the past, became more popular, and some civil officials who had never set foot here poured in one after another. Among them were people from Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Few people are sharpening their knives and waiting to find out.
However, counting down, except for some people who have not yet been judged, in the remaining 120 three cases, the perpetrators all have confessions, and the prisoners who have not been executed are still alive and well, at least there are no scars on their bodies.When some old acquaintances come to see them, they all hide their faces and feel ashamed.
Now under the tutelage of Emperor Zhengde, he doesn't have too much restraint on Beizhen Fusi. There is only one requirement. All those arrested must be justified. If there is a problem found in the investigation, the person in charge will be buried with him.
This one and only requirement is like a sharp sword hanging around the neck, forcing the once wanton Fusi of Beizhen to act in chains, revealing order in his wanton arrogance, not daring to go beyond the rules.
Among those arrested, 23 people were involved in the Ningxia incident, and among these 23 people, [-] people were contacted by other forces.These people were dazzled by the gold, silver and jewels, and they plunged into it without even identifying the people behind the scenes. Even if they had it, so what, wouldn't it all be collected into the national treasury now?
The person who was mistaken for the mastermind behind the scenes was Jin Wang Zhu Zhiyang.This man has no ambitions, and now he is 30 years old and has no heirs. He lives more casually than Zhu Houzhao. He doesn't even know how to deploy troops. How can he be patient enough to reach out to the border?I really don't know whether I am treating myself as an idiot or King Jin as an idiot.
But actually, it's quite normal.Although colluding, it is impossible for an official to meet directly with the princes. The relationship between each other is hidden behind the scenes. Even if there is a slander in the heart, the person who comes is cautious, and all traces are carefully erased. Only King Jin can be found.This guy just likes to visit mountains and rivers, and is often not in the palace. Even if the imperial order does not allow it, he will try his best to find a way to go out and play. The first prince in history who was arrested by his own guards is probably only this family.
Although Jiao Shizhi was not directly involved in arresting people, all the news about the communication with Beizhen Fusi was passed through the hands of a few of them.Once something is found, pull out the radish and bring out the mud, and the rest will be easier than before. Through this line, a lot of things have been picked up along the road from the northwest to the imperial city one after another. Breathtaking.
Although this deed is shocking, after the ending, it is still unknown who is behind the scenes.However, those who have this ability are just a few feudal lords who have long been remembered by Jin Yiwei.Among them, Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao was once suspected by Jiao Shizhi the most, but Jin Yiwei's report about him was normal, even if Jiao Shizhi had any thoughts in his mind, he could only keep this matter in his heart.
Speaking of Ningxia, the two batches of military rations sent by the emperor did not know how to get in at the beginning.Later, according to the terrain, after struggling to get in touch with the city, some people cooperated with the inside and outside of the city, and used the terrain to drive away a large group of wild bison. They followed the bison and rushed past the destroyed Tatar army. After doing this twice, the army rations were successfully brought into the town.
This method was said by Zhu Houzhao casually after learning about the situation, but it was successfully applied to practice in the end. Emperor Zhengde was very excited when he heard the news, and wished to replace it with himself.
In fact, if Jiao Shizhi and the cabinet hadn't held Zhu Houzhao back, the emperor would have been able to conquest himself.
Jiao Shizhi used the current turbulent situation in the court to persuade the emperor, so that Emperor Zhengde suppressed his excitement.
"Shizhi, if there is no such opportunity in the future, won't I never be able to try it?" Zhu Houzhao resented very much.Jiao Shizhi, who finally came back, said: "Your Majesty, if there is no such opportunity from now on, wouldn't it be a good thing? It proves that I will never be harassed again when I go to the border."
Emperor Zhengde sneered, stretched out his hand and moved the pillow behind him, "This is as impossible as my mother's not marrying me." Jiao Shizhi looked at him helplessly, but admitted that what Emperor Zhengde said was not wrong .
Since the fall of the Yuan Dynasty, the forces of the survivors scattered by the Northern Yuan Dynasty are still not small. Even if the previous dynasties have won successive victories, they still cannot stop the successive nomads from looting.The little prince didn't know how many times he attacked during the late emperor's time, and he committed repeated offenses.
However, there is indeed a problem with the Frontier Headquarters, and what happened to Hetian is generally the same as what happened to Juntian mentioned earlier, and there is no difference.After the previous salt introduction system was destroyed, the embezzlement has become more and more violent. Zhu Houzhao is already considering pardoning the frontier tax, but this is definitely not enough.
Where there are people, there is desire, and desire is hard to curb. It is indeed too bloody to stop evil by killing. Emperor Zhengde struggled to walk at this speed.In the successive major incidents, many officials were involved. Zhu Houzhao always believed in the idea of uprooting, and he never showed any mercy. Enke was opened last year. Looking at this situation now, perhaps another needed.
However, this also gave the previously squeezed talents a chance. If they were not admitted to the Juren Jinshi, they would definitely be able to have official positions. Many positions were occupied by some noble families. Compared with them, poor families were not Not so many opportunities.Of course Jinshi is much better than Juren.
"Your Majesty, the situation in Ningxia is gradually improving, and the situation is slowly being controlled by us. However, due to your previous actions of releasing water, we have not yet caught the tail of the mastermind behind the scenes. I hope that the Emperor will make a decisive decision in the future. Don't let such a thing happen again." Jiao Shizhi pretended to forget Emperor Zhengde's words, and said solemnly.
Emperor Zhengde rubbed his chin and replied with a smile: "Yes, yes, what Shizhi said makes sense."
Jiao Shizhi lowered his head and handed the news from various places in the past two days to the emperor. Zhu Hou looked at it for a few times and then laughed again, "These people are really clever. When they saw something was wrong, they all jumped out and begged for mercy. .”
"After all, the emperor's methods during this time are ruthless, even if it is for the sake of his own family, he has to come out and try to intercede." Jiao Shizhi said.
Zhu Houzhao snorted coldly, "If they weren't greedy, how could they have come to this end? Who can blame this? Could it be that I forced them to take the money back then?"
What Emperor Zhengde said was related to what Jin Yiwei had done during this period.As mentioned before, Zhu Houzhao has been fishing for big fish for a long time. Some news that he has known for a long time has been holding back, waiting for a good time to catch it in one fell swoop. However, he did not expect that the news that Ningxia was besieged this time would be caught. To truncate, immediately uproot the handwriting that had been ambushed before.
The person behind the scenes used the name of King Jin to do things, and all the clues left behind pointed to King Jin, but it really made King Jin really miserable. Most of the officials who were contacted really mistakenly thought that they communicated with them. It is Jin Wang's people, and it is Jin Wang who wants to make trouble in that name.Those who can be recruited all have their own weaknesses, are greedy for money and lust, or have major ulterior motives. After being manipulated, they are either forced or actively join.
And most of the people who help to do things are also constantly accepting bribes. After going back and forth like this, they can't escape this circle even more.This time, Emperor Zhengde's resolute action brought a large part of the people together. His ruthless methods made people dare not act rashly. Some people hesitated and turned themselves in. Only then did they realize that all the names they knew before were false.
When Jiao Shizhi learned of this, he couldn't laugh or cry.But after thinking about it carefully, I feel that it is normal.Although many people usually have the impression of King Jin as a fool, but who knows if this is a mask he deliberately disguised? How can people in the royal family know for sure?
Even the emperor himself looks carefree and unrestrained, once he gets angry, who can think of his previous appearance?
"Shizhi, have you found the key people?" Zhu Houzhao asked.Jiao Shizhi nodded, and said softly: "The one who intercepted the news was Ningxia Governor An Weixue, who committed suicide."
"It really is him!" Emperor Zhengde said fiercely.
Jiao Shizhi sighed. You must know that the Chief Soldier and the Governor are the two most important figures in a border town, a civil servant and a military officer are matched with each other.Even the eunuchs and supervisors have to be subdued. Under such circumstances, one of them can turn apostate. If it weren't for the usefulness of the Ningxia General Soldier, this Ningxia might really be broken.
"Did you find out who contacted him before?" Zhu Houzhao asked again.
Jiao Shizhi shook his head, but said again: "I haven't found the person to contact directly, but he will go to a small temple every three days. Now that the siege of Ningxia has been resolved, although the Tatars have not retreated, our people can still Go in. A young monk died half a month ago in the small temple, and there is no other trace."
"Humph, he's dead. I'm afraid it's not a young monk, but an old Jianghu." Zhu Houzhao said, tapping his fingers slowly on the table, and said thoughtfully: "The more he is so secretive, the more I want to know Who is this person? Although this person has brought a lot of losses, he has also caused me to pull out a lot of pests. If it is not for this person's malice, I really want to thank him."
Jiao Shizhi said helplessly: "Your Majesty, please don't, and this person obviously means the throne, so your Majesty can't be merciful."
Emperor Zhengde laughed, "When have you ever seen me being merciful and soft-hearted, and now those civil servants may jump to scold me, I know that."
Jiao Shizhi is also laughing. Although he does not approve of killing to stop evil, he agrees to stifle possible harm in the early stage. Even though it may cause many casualties, compared to harming the people, it is better to let these Those who deserve it should go to jail early.
"Does the emperor have someone to choose?" Jiao Shizhi said.
Zhu Houzhao stood up and walked in the hall with his hands behind his back, and as he walked, his voice sounded, "I suspected it was a spy from the Tatar side, but this attack proved otherwise. If it is really Tatar, the news should not be cut off this time, or in other words, there should be no other actions after cutting off the news, at least there must be internal and external cooperation, right?"
"The severing of contact this time proves that this person attacked quickly and ruthlessly, creating a situation of imminent attack. In fact, this was not the case. When the court was anxious to deal with Ningxia and the traitors, it decisively abandoned the original plan. Most of the informants abandoned their pawns to save the car, and their methods were very decisive."
"If Ningxia's attack hadn't interrupted his plan, he would have been able to plan it slowly, slowly infiltrating step by step, even...by my side."
"Your Majesty!" Jiao Shizhi called out.
Emperor Zhengde chuckled, "I'm right, and it's not the first day I know that the former imperial palace is no different from a broken basket."
Jiao Shizhi pursed his lips and asked softly: "But your majesty, what does Ningxia's attack have to do with that person's plan? Why is it so involved in such a large area."
Emperor Zhengde said: "Actually, it can be seen from this incident that if he hadn't taken the sudden action to cut off the news from Ningxia to the capital this time, he would not have exposed himself like this. This means that he has very important things to do. And it just happens to be related to Ningxia. And if the Ningxia incident is exposed in advance, it will cause a lot of trouble and get consequences he doesn't want."
Jiao Shizhi pondered, "How important is it that such a resourceful and decisive person can make such a judgment?" Isn't his goal the throne?If it was really the throne, then in his mind, what could be as important as the throne?
Although Jiao Shizhi thought for a long time, he really couldn't figure out what that person was thinking, so he had no choice but to let this matter go.He closed the memorial that was opened in his hand, put it on the table again, and when he was about to say something, someone grabbed his hand before he stretched it back.
Emperor Zhengde smiled and said: "Shizhi, we haven't seen each other for so long, don't you miss me at all? From just now until now, you have been telling me about the government affairs, I am really sad." While watching Jiao Shizhi speak with a smile, even his brows looked very gentle.
Jiao Shizhi moved the held hand a little, and found that it was not easy to pull it back, so he looked at Zhu Houzhao and said seriously: "I want to."
Zhu Houzhao looked happy, and before he could speak, Jiao Shizhi said again: "I've been thinking about finding out the matter early so that I can come back and report to the emperor as soon as possible. Thinking about it this way, I can still think about the emperor several times a day." .”
Zhu Houzhao: ...He doesn't want to know the answer at all, and he is not happy at all if he knows it, okay? !
Emperor Zhengde rallied, pulled Jiao Shizhi's wrist and rubbed it twice, and now even his eyes were shimmering, and he looked at Jiao Shizhi with a smile, "I knew that Shizhi was thinking of me all the time. I’ve been thinking about it too.”
"I'm thinking about Shizhi's face, I'm thinking about Shizhi's neck, I'm thinking about Shizhi's body, and I'm thinking about..." In the middle of speaking, Jiao Shizhi stopped me in shame and indignation, "How can the emperor say such a thing?" words of ..."
Jiao Shizhi omitted the two words in the middle, but Zhu Houzhao understood it instantly.He smiled and said: "Shizhi is wrong to say that. When I think of a person, doesn't the whole person appear in my heart? In this way, I must also think of a person's face, a person neck, a man's..."
"Alright, alright, my majesty, I understand." Jiao Shizhi wished he could have an extra hand to cover the emperor's mouth, but unfortunately, in his current posture, one hand was held on the table and the other The hand was just in the opposite direction, but it couldn't be stretched out.
It's fine if the emperor speaks in the usual way, but he has the kind of deep and hoarse voice that specially lowers his voice, which is exactly the same as when he pressed Jiao Shizhi on the bed and licked kisses that night, making Jiao Shizhi As soon as he heard this voice, his whole body went numb, as if he was naked in the eyes of the emperor.This illusion was so terrifying that Jiao Shizhi couldn't help but stop repeatedly.
Zhu Houzhao just laughed, but didn't continue talking.
He held Jiao Shizhi's hand and was unwilling to let go. He led him to the window sill, stretched out his hand and pushed aside the half-closed window screen, looked at the scenery outside and said, "Your mood is too tense today, how many times?" It’s good to look at the scenery outside. We’ve experienced all sorts of things, so are we still afraid of this little thief?”
"Your Majesty, this is not a thief."
"It's just the truth, what else could it be if it's not a thief who hides its head and shows its tail?"
Just like that, Jiao Shizhi was held hands by the emperor, and the two stood by the window stupidly looking at the big tree outside the window for a long time in a daze.
Then Jiao Shizhi's mood gradually eased.
Zhu Houzhao was right, Jiao Shizhi's mood was a little too tense.Perhaps it was such a thrilling realization this time that if it wasn't for Ningxia's affairs, after they had been enjoying themselves for a few years, a big crisis might suddenly erupt.
But he, who has always been calm, suddenly feels a sense of fear when encountering things.
Since ancient times, the competition for fame and fortune has always been the most intense, and the battle for the throne as the leader among them will always set off a bloody storm every time it arises.Winners and losers, things are so straightforward and cruel.
If, if...
Jiao Shizhi suddenly grabbed his hand, no, he will never allow it!
Jiao Shizhi, who was thinking so, ignored that he was holding the emperor's hand tightly.
……
Just as the atmosphere in the court slowly returned to normal and the Tatars had just retreated, Anhua suddenly rebelled!Taking advantage of Ningxia's exhaustion, King Anhua of Ningxia ordered Zhou Ang and others to kill the general of Ningxia, guarding eunuchs, and a group of generals in charge of military power by using the capital of Ningxia that he had contacted at first.Using the name of the emperor's failure of morality, he was blackmailed and plundered, and entrusted to the princes and generals, openly confronting the imperial court!
When such news spread to Beijing, King Anhua was killed by Ningxia guerrilla general Qiu Yue before the government and the public were shaken for a few days. The army sent by the general soldier took over control.A rebellion that had just risen was put down so quickly, it was mistaken for a joke.
Beijing Central received the news that after Zhu Houzhao sent someone to take over as the Ningxia General Soldier and filled a series of vacancies, he ordered successively to appease a series of officials who were killed in this battle, and then he was so angry that he scolded his mother in the palace.It doesn't matter if King Anhua is stupid, but the group of people he killed were great heroes who just made meritorious service. The people on the front foot were hacked to death by their own people just after they resisted the Tatars, and they were still killed by such a stupid person. Very upset.
We must know that there were a lot of promising civil servants in the Ming Dynasty, but talented and loyal military officials were rare.Although the status of a military officer is indeed inferior to that of a civil official, but with the existence of an important town on the frontier, how could the emperor not remember it?Now that this has happened, it has lost a group of talents in vain.
"Such a stupid person, I would still consider him as a candidate for the mastermind behind the scenes. I must have been unable to sleep to think so at that time. How could there be such a stupid person like a pig? Oh no, this **** You can't even compare to a pig!" Emperor Zhengde was really impatient, otherwise he wouldn't have even scolded his own zodiac.
Jiao Shizhi had been listening to Zhu Houzhao scolding for half an hour, and knew that the emperor was really out of breath.Now there are very few military officers who can be trusted in the imperial court. Jiang Han is already considered a rare general, but it is really embarrassing to die at the stabbing knife of someone behind him.
As for saying that King Anhua is stupid, he is indeed stupid.It is true that Ningxia was exhausted after the battle because the Tatars had just attacked. However, this man did not expect that because of the battle in Ningxia, there were still several troops deployed not far from Ningxia. If the Tatars hadn’t withdrawn in time, You might have to do it.In such a situation, raising troops, besides taking advantage of this opportunity to kill the exhausted Ningxia defenders, what else can they gain?He couldn't even grasp the timing, no wonder Zhu Houzhao scolded him for being extremely stupid!
While comforting the emperor, Jiao Shizhi sighed in his heart, no wonder the emperor wanted to fight in person so much, even when he sometimes saw such a scene, he wished he could fight the enemy himself.
It's just that the emperor's status is noble, so he can't act at will after all.
On the second day of thinking like this, when Jiao Shizhi saw Zhu Houzhao, a bright vision flashed in his heart.
[The governor of military affairs, the mighty general, the chief military officer. 】
Just such a short thing, Jiao Shizhi thought for a moment when he saw these words, does the court have such an official name?
He called himself Huang Ning.
Huang Ning is a very interesting person. After Chen Chuming talked with him once in the teahouse, he couldn't forget it. A few days later, when he came out of his shift, he felt grateful, and went around to that teahouse again, and found him in his old seat.
Chen Chuming worked in the palace and was used to going in and out, so he naturally knew that Huang Ning was unusual. As a businessman, he seemed to carry too much extravagance, and he was often followed by two people who looked like Lianjiazi .
But he felt very comfortable chatting with Huang Ning, and he didn't care about it.
People always have their privacy.
What's more, Huang Ning was so angry with him, it seemed that Huang Ning could understand his thoughts in every word he said.
Moreover, regarding Chen Chuming's own face blindness, it was precisely because of Huang Ning's advice that he no longer suffered from it from now on.
Even Chen Chuming's own family members couldn't understand Chen Chuming's pain. If they hadn't watched him since childhood, they wouldn't even know what this face blindness was.
But Huang Ning understood it all at once, and even helped Chen Chuming come up with a suitable method, which made the difficulties in his daily life disappear all at once.
Huang Ning never inquired about his affairs in the palace, nor was he curious about his life as a Jinyiwei. If they met each other, they were very comfortable chatting with each other.
How could Chen Chuming be unhappy when he met such a friend without arrogance at all, and he became closer to Huang Ning.Huang Ning is knowledgeable, chatting about the world, no matter what kind of topic he can pick up quickly, and he can also make two tricks with Chen Chuming when he has nothing to do.
On the eve of his birthday, Huang Ning came to look for him, saying that he needed to leave Beijing to go home, and his home was in the south of the Yangtze River. If he went out this time, it would be difficult for him to come back to the capital again. He asked Chen Chuming what his plan was?
At that time, Chen Chuming was also thinking about this matter. The family members were planning to give him a place for activities, and they didn't want him to lose his energy by staying in the palace all the time.
At that time, he still wanted to go to the northwest or south to kill the enemy, but he was suppressed by his family. When he suddenly heard Huang Ning's question, he felt a lot more relaxed.
If the friend is in the south, it is not bad for him to go to the south.
The two chatted to the place where they started to fight and drink, and got drunk.When Chen Chuming woke up the next day, Huang Ning was sleeping next to him, and he fled in despair in the face of his shameful reaction.
Facing the burgeoning emotions, Chen Chuming was too afraid to go to Huang Ning for a long time.It wasn't until Jiao Shizhi talked to him that night that Chen Chuming suddenly realized.
It's his own business that he likes Huang Ning, it has nothing to do with Huang Ning himself, it seems good to have someone in his heart silently.As for his future, since he can be in the same place as the person he likes, that would be even better, wouldn't it?
However, Chen Chuming, who thought so, was robbed before he arrived at the guard to which he belonged.
Robber - Huang Ning.
Or maybe he should be called Zhu Chenhao.
King Ning.
Chen Chuming looked at the magnificent man in front of him, and felt that he had stepped on the darkness.He covered his face, but no tears could flow.He has already escaped so far, but he was still easily caught. If he had known earlier, he should have fought hard, and the things he knew should be spread out first...
……
But now Jiao Shizhi, who was far away in the capital, immediately started to get busy after the emperor gave an order.
No matter how "idlely" he guards the palace on the surface, he is still a member of the Jinyiwei. Now that Emperor Zhengde has mobilized the power of the entire Jinyiwei, it means that he also jumps into it and starts to get busy.
On the road from Ningxia to the imperial court, the channel of news transmission has been cut off.Now, as Jinyiwei, who are also spread all over the place, they began to play their role at this time.
From Emperor Hongzhi to Emperor Zhengde more than ten years ago, Jinyiwei has completely lost its former glory. Under the shackles of successive generations of commanders, it restrained its minions. Now that the shackles have been loosened, news from various places has continuously spread to Beijing. .After receiving the order from the imperial court, the guards near the important town also sent a small team to spy on them. If they got the real situation, they would attack immediately.
Four days later, the Northwest returned. Ningxia was surrounded by [-] troops and horses.Upon hearing this news, Emperor Zhengde angrily reprimanded the case in the court, and then threw out a memorial.
The above is the return of the guerrilla general Qiu Yue, which is the report about Ningxia.
As mentioned above, Ningxia is still under siege. Jiang Han, the general soldier of Ningxia, is swearing to resist, and the surrounding towns rush to help, forming a stalemate. However, none of the seven reports to the residence in a row responded, so he had to leapfrog the report. Relying on Jin Yiwei and some tricks of the rivers and lakes, this memorial was sent to the capital.
"The news about Qiu Yue was ten days ago. And it's been ten days since this memorial was reported. The Qing family said, whose words should I believe?" Emperor Zhengde said through gritted teeth.
The government and the public were silent, and no one dared to stand up under the emperor's anger.
"Liu Daxia!"
"The minister is here."
"Based on your experience, which one is right and which one is wrong?"
Zhu Houzhao named the Minister of War.
Liu Daxia came out and said: "Your Majesty, according to the content of these two memorials, I believe that Qiu Yue's statement is correct. If Ningxia is breached now, then the capital should have heard the news now, but the interior is still silent. This It’s not something that can be stopped by blocking the report. It’s just that the last report also has its merits. Since the salt merchants received silver in exchange for the supply of border granaries from Taicang, since then the salt merchants have no longer cared about whether the border granaries are in surplus .And the emperor also knows that it is no longer a matter of a day or two for Biantian to be encroached on. At this time, Ningxia... probably has no food."
Such a reform was done by Ye Qi, Minister of the Household Department, during the Hongzhi period.Although this move temporarily benefited the court, it caused a lot of harm.He not only destroyed the original inherent system, but also caused disputes that followed.
Hearing that Liu Daxia put all the blame on himself, Ye Qi came out to argue, and the two exchanged a few words before being interrupted impatiently by Zhu Houzhao, "I'm not here to listen to you shrews cursing. Liu Qing's family and My judgment is the same, I have ordered people to send military rations there before, if they can arrive as scheduled, they should arrive in time."
Ye Qi looked at the emperor in surprise, and said, "Your Majesty, I have not received the order." got silver.
Emperor Zhengde glanced at him, and said in a low voice: "I still don't like the little money from the national treasury. By the time you're all done, Ningxia will be breached! What I want now is speed, can you afford it?"
Everyone is speechless, if they can successfully dispatch troops and generals so easily, then they don't need the charm of the emperor.If it was the past, Zhu Houzhao would definitely argue with the courtiers for a long time, and he couldn't easily take advantage of them, but now that the matter was imminent, he would not be stingy about such matters, and secretly allocated the silver taels from the inner treasury.
As soon as the matter was over, Zhu Houzhao turned to say a few words beside Jiao Shizhi. Jiao Shizhi took the imperial decree from him, stood in front of him and spread it out and said, "To make a long story short, I want to investigate people. If there is a petty move, hurry up and clean it up." , if you are accidentally injured, I will not compensate you."
The courtiers who were about to listen to the announcement of an important event: ...
In fact, even Jiao Shizhi, who was reciting the decree, said: ...
However, the current emperor is so casual, and the matter is really urgent, the courtiers can only hold their noses and endure it.
Those who are well-informed, or those who are astute, can see a lot of things from the decree specially promulgated by Emperor Zhengde, and their hearts tremble. It seems that the emperor wants to...
No matter what Emperor Zhengde really wanted, when the second batch of food and grass was shipped to Ningxia, Jin Yiwei started to act, fiercely, just like his original reputation.
Jin Yiwei flocked viciously into various corners that had been involved in the past, and then were restrained to leave, and people were arrested one after another.Perhaps when a person is drinking tea in a teahouse, someone rushes in and takes him away, even if that person is an official of the third or fourth rank.
Emperor Zhengde firmly suppressed all dissatisfaction. Even if someone was bumped to death on the pillar of the court, he just looked at the red and white colors indifferently and said: "Even after thousands of years, it is recorded in the history books that I am Tyrant, so what? Am I the kind of person who taboos fame? I have nothing to do with the flood after his death!"
"Now you still need to thank me, thank you for not having any wrongful killings. Everyone arrested by Jin Yiwei has complete criminal evidence. If anyone has any dissatisfaction, from today to the beginning of next month, I promise You go to Beizhen Fusi to investigate, and you can check all the information except secrets. I want to see, do you still have to act for the so-called rules, or do things for me in a down-to-earth manner!"
"Besides pedantic dogma, can't you stuff anything useful in your mind?!"
Emperor Zhengde's sharp sarcasm made the courtiers very angry, but Liu Jian suppressed this wave of emotions.He looked deeply at the high-spirited emperor in the hall, and said: "The emperor's words are true. If the ministers really find out the injustice, can the emperor restrain himself."
Zhu Houde spread his hands, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "You can go if you want."
All of a sudden, Beizhen Fusi, which had never been dared to set foot in the past, became more popular, and some civil officials who had never set foot here poured in one after another. Among them were people from Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Few people are sharpening their knives and waiting to find out.
However, counting down, except for some people who have not yet been judged, in the remaining 120 three cases, the perpetrators all have confessions, and the prisoners who have not been executed are still alive and well, at least there are no scars on their bodies.When some old acquaintances come to see them, they all hide their faces and feel ashamed.
Now under the tutelage of Emperor Zhengde, he doesn't have too much restraint on Beizhen Fusi. There is only one requirement. All those arrested must be justified. If there is a problem found in the investigation, the person in charge will be buried with him.
This one and only requirement is like a sharp sword hanging around the neck, forcing the once wanton Fusi of Beizhen to act in chains, revealing order in his wanton arrogance, not daring to go beyond the rules.
Among those arrested, 23 people were involved in the Ningxia incident, and among these 23 people, [-] people were contacted by other forces.These people were dazzled by the gold, silver and jewels, and they plunged into it without even identifying the people behind the scenes. Even if they had it, so what, wouldn't it all be collected into the national treasury now?
The person who was mistaken for the mastermind behind the scenes was Jin Wang Zhu Zhiyang.This man has no ambitions, and now he is 30 years old and has no heirs. He lives more casually than Zhu Houzhao. He doesn't even know how to deploy troops. How can he be patient enough to reach out to the border?I really don't know whether I am treating myself as an idiot or King Jin as an idiot.
But actually, it's quite normal.Although colluding, it is impossible for an official to meet directly with the princes. The relationship between each other is hidden behind the scenes. Even if there is a slander in the heart, the person who comes is cautious, and all traces are carefully erased. Only King Jin can be found.This guy just likes to visit mountains and rivers, and is often not in the palace. Even if the imperial order does not allow it, he will try his best to find a way to go out and play. The first prince in history who was arrested by his own guards is probably only this family.
Although Jiao Shizhi was not directly involved in arresting people, all the news about the communication with Beizhen Fusi was passed through the hands of a few of them.Once something is found, pull out the radish and bring out the mud, and the rest will be easier than before. Through this line, a lot of things have been picked up along the road from the northwest to the imperial city one after another. Breathtaking.
Although this deed is shocking, after the ending, it is still unknown who is behind the scenes.However, those who have this ability are just a few feudal lords who have long been remembered by Jin Yiwei.Among them, Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao was once suspected by Jiao Shizhi the most, but Jin Yiwei's report about him was normal, even if Jiao Shizhi had any thoughts in his mind, he could only keep this matter in his heart.
Speaking of Ningxia, the two batches of military rations sent by the emperor did not know how to get in at the beginning.Later, according to the terrain, after struggling to get in touch with the city, some people cooperated with the inside and outside of the city, and used the terrain to drive away a large group of wild bison. They followed the bison and rushed past the destroyed Tatar army. After doing this twice, the army rations were successfully brought into the town.
This method was said by Zhu Houzhao casually after learning about the situation, but it was successfully applied to practice in the end. Emperor Zhengde was very excited when he heard the news, and wished to replace it with himself.
In fact, if Jiao Shizhi and the cabinet hadn't held Zhu Houzhao back, the emperor would have been able to conquest himself.
Jiao Shizhi used the current turbulent situation in the court to persuade the emperor, so that Emperor Zhengde suppressed his excitement.
"Shizhi, if there is no such opportunity in the future, won't I never be able to try it?" Zhu Houzhao resented very much.Jiao Shizhi, who finally came back, said: "Your Majesty, if there is no such opportunity from now on, wouldn't it be a good thing? It proves that I will never be harassed again when I go to the border."
Emperor Zhengde sneered, stretched out his hand and moved the pillow behind him, "This is as impossible as my mother's not marrying me." Jiao Shizhi looked at him helplessly, but admitted that what Emperor Zhengde said was not wrong .
Since the fall of the Yuan Dynasty, the forces of the survivors scattered by the Northern Yuan Dynasty are still not small. Even if the previous dynasties have won successive victories, they still cannot stop the successive nomads from looting.The little prince didn't know how many times he attacked during the late emperor's time, and he committed repeated offenses.
However, there is indeed a problem with the Frontier Headquarters, and what happened to Hetian is generally the same as what happened to Juntian mentioned earlier, and there is no difference.After the previous salt introduction system was destroyed, the embezzlement has become more and more violent. Zhu Houzhao is already considering pardoning the frontier tax, but this is definitely not enough.
Where there are people, there is desire, and desire is hard to curb. It is indeed too bloody to stop evil by killing. Emperor Zhengde struggled to walk at this speed.In the successive major incidents, many officials were involved. Zhu Houzhao always believed in the idea of uprooting, and he never showed any mercy. Enke was opened last year. Looking at this situation now, perhaps another needed.
However, this also gave the previously squeezed talents a chance. If they were not admitted to the Juren Jinshi, they would definitely be able to have official positions. Many positions were occupied by some noble families. Compared with them, poor families were not Not so many opportunities.Of course Jinshi is much better than Juren.
"Your Majesty, the situation in Ningxia is gradually improving, and the situation is slowly being controlled by us. However, due to your previous actions of releasing water, we have not yet caught the tail of the mastermind behind the scenes. I hope that the Emperor will make a decisive decision in the future. Don't let such a thing happen again." Jiao Shizhi pretended to forget Emperor Zhengde's words, and said solemnly.
Emperor Zhengde rubbed his chin and replied with a smile: "Yes, yes, what Shizhi said makes sense."
Jiao Shizhi lowered his head and handed the news from various places in the past two days to the emperor. Zhu Hou looked at it for a few times and then laughed again, "These people are really clever. When they saw something was wrong, they all jumped out and begged for mercy. .”
"After all, the emperor's methods during this time are ruthless, even if it is for the sake of his own family, he has to come out and try to intercede." Jiao Shizhi said.
Zhu Houzhao snorted coldly, "If they weren't greedy, how could they have come to this end? Who can blame this? Could it be that I forced them to take the money back then?"
What Emperor Zhengde said was related to what Jin Yiwei had done during this period.As mentioned before, Zhu Houzhao has been fishing for big fish for a long time. Some news that he has known for a long time has been holding back, waiting for a good time to catch it in one fell swoop. However, he did not expect that the news that Ningxia was besieged this time would be caught. To truncate, immediately uproot the handwriting that had been ambushed before.
The person behind the scenes used the name of King Jin to do things, and all the clues left behind pointed to King Jin, but it really made King Jin really miserable. Most of the officials who were contacted really mistakenly thought that they communicated with them. It is Jin Wang's people, and it is Jin Wang who wants to make trouble in that name.Those who can be recruited all have their own weaknesses, are greedy for money and lust, or have major ulterior motives. After being manipulated, they are either forced or actively join.
And most of the people who help to do things are also constantly accepting bribes. After going back and forth like this, they can't escape this circle even more.This time, Emperor Zhengde's resolute action brought a large part of the people together. His ruthless methods made people dare not act rashly. Some people hesitated and turned themselves in. Only then did they realize that all the names they knew before were false.
When Jiao Shizhi learned of this, he couldn't laugh or cry.But after thinking about it carefully, I feel that it is normal.Although many people usually have the impression of King Jin as a fool, but who knows if this is a mask he deliberately disguised? How can people in the royal family know for sure?
Even the emperor himself looks carefree and unrestrained, once he gets angry, who can think of his previous appearance?
"Shizhi, have you found the key people?" Zhu Houzhao asked.Jiao Shizhi nodded, and said softly: "The one who intercepted the news was Ningxia Governor An Weixue, who committed suicide."
"It really is him!" Emperor Zhengde said fiercely.
Jiao Shizhi sighed. You must know that the Chief Soldier and the Governor are the two most important figures in a border town, a civil servant and a military officer are matched with each other.Even the eunuchs and supervisors have to be subdued. Under such circumstances, one of them can turn apostate. If it weren't for the usefulness of the Ningxia General Soldier, this Ningxia might really be broken.
"Did you find out who contacted him before?" Zhu Houzhao asked again.
Jiao Shizhi shook his head, but said again: "I haven't found the person to contact directly, but he will go to a small temple every three days. Now that the siege of Ningxia has been resolved, although the Tatars have not retreated, our people can still Go in. A young monk died half a month ago in the small temple, and there is no other trace."
"Humph, he's dead. I'm afraid it's not a young monk, but an old Jianghu." Zhu Houzhao said, tapping his fingers slowly on the table, and said thoughtfully: "The more he is so secretive, the more I want to know Who is this person? Although this person has brought a lot of losses, he has also caused me to pull out a lot of pests. If it is not for this person's malice, I really want to thank him."
Jiao Shizhi said helplessly: "Your Majesty, please don't, and this person obviously means the throne, so your Majesty can't be merciful."
Emperor Zhengde laughed, "When have you ever seen me being merciful and soft-hearted, and now those civil servants may jump to scold me, I know that."
Jiao Shizhi is also laughing. Although he does not approve of killing to stop evil, he agrees to stifle possible harm in the early stage. Even though it may cause many casualties, compared to harming the people, it is better to let these Those who deserve it should go to jail early.
"Does the emperor have someone to choose?" Jiao Shizhi said.
Zhu Houzhao stood up and walked in the hall with his hands behind his back, and as he walked, his voice sounded, "I suspected it was a spy from the Tatar side, but this attack proved otherwise. If it is really Tatar, the news should not be cut off this time, or in other words, there should be no other actions after cutting off the news, at least there must be internal and external cooperation, right?"
"The severing of contact this time proves that this person attacked quickly and ruthlessly, creating a situation of imminent attack. In fact, this was not the case. When the court was anxious to deal with Ningxia and the traitors, it decisively abandoned the original plan. Most of the informants abandoned their pawns to save the car, and their methods were very decisive."
"If Ningxia's attack hadn't interrupted his plan, he would have been able to plan it slowly, slowly infiltrating step by step, even...by my side."
"Your Majesty!" Jiao Shizhi called out.
Emperor Zhengde chuckled, "I'm right, and it's not the first day I know that the former imperial palace is no different from a broken basket."
Jiao Shizhi pursed his lips and asked softly: "But your majesty, what does Ningxia's attack have to do with that person's plan? Why is it so involved in such a large area."
Emperor Zhengde said: "Actually, it can be seen from this incident that if he hadn't taken the sudden action to cut off the news from Ningxia to the capital this time, he would not have exposed himself like this. This means that he has very important things to do. And it just happens to be related to Ningxia. And if the Ningxia incident is exposed in advance, it will cause a lot of trouble and get consequences he doesn't want."
Jiao Shizhi pondered, "How important is it that such a resourceful and decisive person can make such a judgment?" Isn't his goal the throne?If it was really the throne, then in his mind, what could be as important as the throne?
Although Jiao Shizhi thought for a long time, he really couldn't figure out what that person was thinking, so he had no choice but to let this matter go.He closed the memorial that was opened in his hand, put it on the table again, and when he was about to say something, someone grabbed his hand before he stretched it back.
Emperor Zhengde smiled and said: "Shizhi, we haven't seen each other for so long, don't you miss me at all? From just now until now, you have been telling me about the government affairs, I am really sad." While watching Jiao Shizhi speak with a smile, even his brows looked very gentle.
Jiao Shizhi moved the held hand a little, and found that it was not easy to pull it back, so he looked at Zhu Houzhao and said seriously: "I want to."
Zhu Houzhao looked happy, and before he could speak, Jiao Shizhi said again: "I've been thinking about finding out the matter early so that I can come back and report to the emperor as soon as possible. Thinking about it this way, I can still think about the emperor several times a day." .”
Zhu Houzhao: ...He doesn't want to know the answer at all, and he is not happy at all if he knows it, okay? !
Emperor Zhengde rallied, pulled Jiao Shizhi's wrist and rubbed it twice, and now even his eyes were shimmering, and he looked at Jiao Shizhi with a smile, "I knew that Shizhi was thinking of me all the time. I’ve been thinking about it too.”
"I'm thinking about Shizhi's face, I'm thinking about Shizhi's neck, I'm thinking about Shizhi's body, and I'm thinking about..." In the middle of speaking, Jiao Shizhi stopped me in shame and indignation, "How can the emperor say such a thing?" words of ..."
Jiao Shizhi omitted the two words in the middle, but Zhu Houzhao understood it instantly.He smiled and said: "Shizhi is wrong to say that. When I think of a person, doesn't the whole person appear in my heart? In this way, I must also think of a person's face, a person neck, a man's..."
"Alright, alright, my majesty, I understand." Jiao Shizhi wished he could have an extra hand to cover the emperor's mouth, but unfortunately, in his current posture, one hand was held on the table and the other The hand was just in the opposite direction, but it couldn't be stretched out.
It's fine if the emperor speaks in the usual way, but he has the kind of deep and hoarse voice that specially lowers his voice, which is exactly the same as when he pressed Jiao Shizhi on the bed and licked kisses that night, making Jiao Shizhi As soon as he heard this voice, his whole body went numb, as if he was naked in the eyes of the emperor.This illusion was so terrifying that Jiao Shizhi couldn't help but stop repeatedly.
Zhu Houzhao just laughed, but didn't continue talking.
He held Jiao Shizhi's hand and was unwilling to let go. He led him to the window sill, stretched out his hand and pushed aside the half-closed window screen, looked at the scenery outside and said, "Your mood is too tense today, how many times?" It’s good to look at the scenery outside. We’ve experienced all sorts of things, so are we still afraid of this little thief?”
"Your Majesty, this is not a thief."
"It's just the truth, what else could it be if it's not a thief who hides its head and shows its tail?"
Just like that, Jiao Shizhi was held hands by the emperor, and the two stood by the window stupidly looking at the big tree outside the window for a long time in a daze.
Then Jiao Shizhi's mood gradually eased.
Zhu Houzhao was right, Jiao Shizhi's mood was a little too tense.Perhaps it was such a thrilling realization this time that if it wasn't for Ningxia's affairs, after they had been enjoying themselves for a few years, a big crisis might suddenly erupt.
But he, who has always been calm, suddenly feels a sense of fear when encountering things.
Since ancient times, the competition for fame and fortune has always been the most intense, and the battle for the throne as the leader among them will always set off a bloody storm every time it arises.Winners and losers, things are so straightforward and cruel.
If, if...
Jiao Shizhi suddenly grabbed his hand, no, he will never allow it!
Jiao Shizhi, who was thinking so, ignored that he was holding the emperor's hand tightly.
……
Just as the atmosphere in the court slowly returned to normal and the Tatars had just retreated, Anhua suddenly rebelled!Taking advantage of Ningxia's exhaustion, King Anhua of Ningxia ordered Zhou Ang and others to kill the general of Ningxia, guarding eunuchs, and a group of generals in charge of military power by using the capital of Ningxia that he had contacted at first.Using the name of the emperor's failure of morality, he was blackmailed and plundered, and entrusted to the princes and generals, openly confronting the imperial court!
When such news spread to Beijing, King Anhua was killed by Ningxia guerrilla general Qiu Yue before the government and the public were shaken for a few days. The army sent by the general soldier took over control.A rebellion that had just risen was put down so quickly, it was mistaken for a joke.
Beijing Central received the news that after Zhu Houzhao sent someone to take over as the Ningxia General Soldier and filled a series of vacancies, he ordered successively to appease a series of officials who were killed in this battle, and then he was so angry that he scolded his mother in the palace.It doesn't matter if King Anhua is stupid, but the group of people he killed were great heroes who just made meritorious service. The people on the front foot were hacked to death by their own people just after they resisted the Tatars, and they were still killed by such a stupid person. Very upset.
We must know that there were a lot of promising civil servants in the Ming Dynasty, but talented and loyal military officials were rare.Although the status of a military officer is indeed inferior to that of a civil official, but with the existence of an important town on the frontier, how could the emperor not remember it?Now that this has happened, it has lost a group of talents in vain.
"Such a stupid person, I would still consider him as a candidate for the mastermind behind the scenes. I must have been unable to sleep to think so at that time. How could there be such a stupid person like a pig? Oh no, this **** You can't even compare to a pig!" Emperor Zhengde was really impatient, otherwise he wouldn't have even scolded his own zodiac.
Jiao Shizhi had been listening to Zhu Houzhao scolding for half an hour, and knew that the emperor was really out of breath.Now there are very few military officers who can be trusted in the imperial court. Jiang Han is already considered a rare general, but it is really embarrassing to die at the stabbing knife of someone behind him.
As for saying that King Anhua is stupid, he is indeed stupid.It is true that Ningxia was exhausted after the battle because the Tatars had just attacked. However, this man did not expect that because of the battle in Ningxia, there were still several troops deployed not far from Ningxia. If the Tatars hadn’t withdrawn in time, You might have to do it.In such a situation, raising troops, besides taking advantage of this opportunity to kill the exhausted Ningxia defenders, what else can they gain?He couldn't even grasp the timing, no wonder Zhu Houzhao scolded him for being extremely stupid!
While comforting the emperor, Jiao Shizhi sighed in his heart, no wonder the emperor wanted to fight in person so much, even when he sometimes saw such a scene, he wished he could fight the enemy himself.
It's just that the emperor's status is noble, so he can't act at will after all.
On the second day of thinking like this, when Jiao Shizhi saw Zhu Houzhao, a bright vision flashed in his heart.
[The governor of military affairs, the mighty general, the chief military officer. 】
Just such a short thing, Jiao Shizhi thought for a moment when he saw these words, does the court have such an official name?
