Hidden Worries in Prosperous Times
Chapter 68:Hidden Worries in Prosperous Times
Spring is the season of all things reviving, vibrant and rejoicing.But at this time, the situation in Beijing was diametrically opposed, and it seemed extremely sad and depressing, especially the major hustle and bustle.
The city's officials and people were so, just because an old man was going west at this time.The old man's name is Yang Yu, the word Shiqi!
Yang Shiqi, Jiangxi Taihe, one of the most outstanding politicians of Daming, since the establishment of the official, after the five dynasties, officials to the Hugai Temple University, as well as the military department, the staff of the Ministry of soldiers, the minister of the staff, can be described as a very important minister.
With the help of his joint efforts with two other cabinet colleagues, Da Ming finally ushered in the first Qingming world - the rule of benevolence after decades of founding the country.At that time, because of Taizu and Taizong South to collect the north and the emptiness of the treasury, it was completely filled up, and the people lived and worked in peace, and the internal and external troubles were swept away.
And he, there are two other cabinet colleagues Yang Rong, Yang Wei is later and called "San Yang cabinet", in the eyes of future generations, this cabinet is Daming more than 200 years of unity and wise cabinet, more than the filial piety of Liu Xie Li three cabinet more exciting, Tao said the first cabinet can not be too much.
But the world's endless banquet, after five dynasties, for the court, for the people for decades of the old people finally came to the end of their lives.
Four years ago, Yang Rong died, and four years later, it was Yang Shiqi's turn.The Sanyang cabinet now only has the fruit remaining Yang Pu to support this world, but the later ones have not yet appeared.Who can take their job?
This is the question of the great world now, and it is also the doubt of the subjects of the world after knowing that Yang Shiqi died, where will Daming go after Sanyang?
Yang Shiqi's death shook the court, not only the officials and people mourned, even the son of heaven also dropped on the day, and then quickly, he declared the mourning after his death - the name of Wenzhen, to the teacher.
The March of Beijing is in mourning, but some people are excited about it, because he knows that with the death of Yang Shiqi, the mountain that weighs on himself has gone to the other, and only one Yang Pu has been old, and his day is not far away.
This person is now the first person in the Ming Inner Court, and the most favored priest of the son is the king of the Indo-Edouth!
As a companion or prince when the son grew up today, Wang Zhen has gradually emerged in the palace after the orthodox emperor sat in the big seat.After years of dormant training and painstaking management, its power inside and outside the palace has become even more alarming.
Not only does the son of heaven lean on the right and right of cronies, but also has countless party members in the DPRK.If it is not the honest man of the present court, the former courtiers with such high moral respect as the three Yangs are in the town, only for fear that the eunuch has already seized all the powers through the favor of the son of heaven, and has become a generation of power early.
But now, Yang Shiqi is dead, and Wang Zhen, who has been careful, can finally show his hands and ambitions, so that the people of the world know that he is not just a small person who can flatter!
Unlike many eunuchs before Da Ming, Wang Zhen did not enter the palace from a small age.But after adulthood, it is difficult to make a difference on the road to the meritorious name, and then enter the palace door.In fact, he also has a name for his talent.
This knowledge of Wang Zhen is actually nothing compared with the later eunuchs of the priest.But at this time, in those who do not learn, most of the commotion do not know the same kind, but it is very standing up to the feeling.So the princely prince, who came from Xiu Cai, quickly stood out, not only the son of heaven, but also the large and small eunuch in the palace, who was respectful and obedient.
In this environment, the prince's self-confidence naturally expanded infinitely, and his ambition gradually grew.Even the idea of becoming the same as the cabinet minister, let the people of the future generations praise their own achievements.
However, Wang Zhen obviously overestimated his identity and underestimated the contempt and guard against these people, so when he had just come up with this idea and had not really done anything, he had been collectively resisted and suppressed by Sanyang.
After the ambition could not be fulfilled, Wang Zhen could only vent in other ways.For example, using all kinds of means to seize financial benefits, and then continue to buy and install their own people in the DPRK and China, waiting for an opportunity to make a comeback.
Now, San Yang to go to two, the opportunity is close at hand.
@@@@@@@
Although I was very happy with Yang Shiqi's death, I would like to even go with Yang Pu's old immortality.But on the surface, the kung fu still had to be done, so when the Yangfu set up the hall and the hundred officials went to worship, Wang Zhen also followed.
However, after returning from the hall, Wang Zhen's face seemed extremely ugly, and the color of resentment between the brows was even more intense.When he returned to the priest with this face of anger, the eunuchs of his men did not even dare to breathe in the atmosphere, and were careful to be trembling.
Only Wei Zhong, the closest dry son, who was closest to him, waited a moment before carefully asking, “Dad, but those officials have offended you?”
“Hm!These are some of the bad things, sooner or later, we will let them all fall on their knees in front of me one by one!”The king, who was gasping for a moment, said with hatred.
“Don’t be angry, but don’t ruin your body because these guys are angry.They are only because Yang Shiqi is dead, so they are looking for us to sprinkle it.”
"Not only because of this, those civil officials, who have not been able to look at people like ours, how can we feel that we want to lower them."It is very funny, those who listen to them in front of your majesty, and they will decide that we will not be as good as them!"Wang Zhen was obviously holding for a long time, and at this time he could not help venting it out.
"Damn, you said that they could not compare themselves to ours near and far with your majesty.Even if you can, with your father's talents, even your majesty will call you a gentleman, how can you not be worse than those guys!"Wei Zhong was busy flattering a word.
“In the end, there is something missing from our family...” Wang Zhen’s face twitched bitterly, and he regretted his decision.But he also did not want to think that without this knife, he would not have the status he has today.
"Daddy don't have to be discouraged, we are not worse than them, the ancestors were not honored by the hundred officials in the first place?"From time to time, the people still speak of the good of his old man.”The ancestors of Wei Zhong's mouth were Zheng He, a famous eunuch of the Yongle Dynasty.
Listening to him mention Zheng He, Wang Zhen's eyes showed a look of envy: "Our family's requirements are not high, as long as we can be satisfied with the old ancestors."Tell me, what can you do to achieve this?”
This question asked Wei Zhong is a stay, he has no power to see the eunuch how can he give the answer?But the good news is that this is also a very spiritual guy, only a little bit, there has been a saying: "Dad, according to the child's father, it should be the status of the ancestors is to take a real knife and a real gun to shoot."When it was hard, the ancestors were soldiers.”
“Take the soldiers?”Wang Zhen heard the sudden eyes and said, “Good!The ancestors were honored by the hundred officials, in addition to the favor of the emperor, the military achievements made were also extremely critical.I heard that his surname was also due to the Taizong Emperor because of his war power.”Speaking of this, the envious color in his eyes is even stronger, and the name of the son of heaven is not available to ordinary officials, as far as the ancestors have obtained it, I really hope that I also have such a glorious day.
But soon, this excitement cooled down again: "Now that there is a great deal of peace, how can there be such an opportunity?"
Wei Zhong did not dare to answer, because in this matter, he had no right to speak, and could only laugh on one side.
"Oh, but it's a pity that I promised the Tatars because of the softness of my heart, otherwise there might be a chance."After a moment of silence, the king sighed.
He was referring to the fact that a few months ago, the Mongolian envoys asked the court to open the opener.At that time, those people could do things for the sake of things, but they made a lot of effort, and as the king of heaven, the people around him also gained a lot of benefits.It was also because of what he said that the matter was done quickly.
Now, however, the king has some regrets.If they do a little bit of it, the demands of the people will not be met, perhaps they will meet with the great Ming swords.And at that time, he asked for a decree with the son of heaven, and then learned that the ancestors took the soldiers to kill all these Tatars, and this army was not at hand?
Wang Zhen thought it was really good, but he obviously ignored the gap between his own ability and Zheng He, and thought that he could achieve a big victory if he went.As for how many soldiers will die in the event of war on both sides, and how many innocent people will be destroyed, all this will not be considered.
“Bringing the Tartus, the child thinks of one thing.Previously, the Datong General Army presented a local county order to please, saying that he had created a weapon against the enemy.Wei Zhong suddenly said a word.
"Oh?"And this?Go and show me that watch.”Wang Zhen suddenly came to interest and waved his hand to order.
Wei Zhong did not dare to slack off, and after a moment, he found the instrument of Hu Sui's work.This kind of table sent from the edge of the war, whether it is civil servants or court supervisors, is not too much care, so it is quickly pressed to the bottom, if not Wei Zhong mentioned at this time, it can only become a pile of waste paper.
And Wang Zhen after reading this above description, his heart is a movement: "This is called Lu Wei's Guangling County order is somewhat interesting..." But he did not mention anything, after all, the Lu County order has nothing to do with him, how can he contribute to it?It was only the name of this little county order that he had been kept in mind.
Inside and outside the court, no one knows that an idea has been bred in the king's heart, and this will be the beginning of changing the whole situation of the Ming Dynasty.
