Chapter eight hundred and fifth research

Yan Qing looked like a black man at this time, and there would be many young scholars and officials who would be excited and wish to die for the righteousness of the country at this time.

However, in this side hall, the style of Emperor Wanli would be confused. Whether it was an eunuch or a minister, everyone looked indifferently.

Emperor Wanli was only stunned for a moment, then looked at Wang Tong. Wang Tong naturally understood his attitude and intention. Wang Tong turned his head and asked:

"Mr. Yan, the imperial guards, Jizhen army, and Datong army will be killed in battle at any time when they go to the northern border. Is their actions ulterior motives or do something traitorous?"

Yan Qing snorted coldly and said:

"In order to seek his own achievements, a villain like you will not hesitate to fall into a critical situation in the Ming Dynasty. If those soldiers die in battle, it will be the sacrifice of your personal ambition. If you take the risk, you are afraid that those soldiers will be bribed by you, become hawks for you to drive, and become your accomplices."

Such words made Wang Tong feel excited in an instant. If it weren't for being in the palace, Wang Tong had the intention to move forward. He took a deep breath and said in a stern voice:

"Wang led his army out of the frontier three times, outside Zhangjiakou Fort of Xuanfu, outside Gubeikou, and this time Datong killed Hukou, the first two times were killed by two thousand, and a dignified victory. The court issued an order to praise him. This time, the northern border attacked Guihua City and destroyed Altan's troops, killing nearly 50,000 enemies, and our army was killed by only 3,000 casualties. There were great victories in several battles, and the price was so small, but there were such results. Even if Wang didn't say it, those who knew the war could see that what Wang did was confident and confident. How could he say he was taking risks? How could he say he was trapping the Ming Dynasty in danger?...

Several big victories show that Wang Tong has the ability to win, and the few casualties have brought such brilliant results, which shows that this battle is not a risk or a lucky draw, but a plan.

Yan Qing glanced at Wang Tong coldly, and said:

"A clever word is lustful, evil villain!"

Wang Tong shook his head and said again:

"Mr. Yan, you said that it is to harm the country. Wang and the Northern Expedition Army broke Guihua City and destroyed the great troubles of the northern border of the Ming Dynasty for a hundred years. Nearly half of the border towns in Daming will be peaceful. Besides, how to calculate the fertile fields around Guihua City, how to calculate the seized gold and silver, killing Hukou to Guihua City or even Hetao, how much territory has been opened for His Majesty this battle opened up for His Majesty? Is this also a disaster to the country?"

Wang Tong's voice gradually rose and he asked:

"Your Majesty's loyal and brave soldiers sacrificed their lives and fought with the sects for what? It is not for the peace of the border town of Daming, nor for the country and country of Daming. Shangshu Yan, you live in a peaceful land and above the temple, without any weapons or iron blood. You say a few words lightly and you will wipe out the merits of these soldiers!!"

"I don't need to explain anything to children like you. What I do will be fair in the world!"

"You say justice!! The army is very strict and returns to victory. But your disciples in the capital are spreading rumors and causing trouble, saying that the military discipline is corrupt and killing the people. If this army is angry by your nonsense, if the chaos really causes a disaster, how can this responsibility be calculated? Will Shangshu Yan say that this is their wolfish ambition?"

Wang Tong asked again sternly, Emperor Wanli listened very carefully. Before Yan Qing could speak, Wang Tong spoke again:

"Spread rumors and slander meritorious officers and soldiers, and incite scholars to besiege the Jinyiwei Yamen. Your Majesty, Yan Qing's actions are unpredictable and have ill-intentioned. He always said that it was for the Ming Dynasty. But he did it, but he did it, but he was in trouble everywhere. Your Majesty, the Minister of Personnel is in charge of the promotion and selection of officials. Such a key position will be plagued by such a large number of people. I would like to ask Your Majesty to stop it!!"

"Absurd!! I have nothing to do with my country and the people! You are so slandering and slandering!! Don't you know that there is still a fair and ruthless law in this world?"

"The soldiers fought bloody battles to expand territory for His Majesty, why is it unfair to the law of the king!!"

"You, a villain with horns on your head, was in the Ming Dynasty. At that time, the scholars and officials ruled the world. A martial artist like you used his extraordinary skills to please the emperor, and also gained the promotion with his military achievements, destroying this ancestral system..."

What Wang Tong said was true, but what Yan Qing said was an empty principle. Even Emperor Wanli knew the reasons. Civil and military battles for power, and Wang Tong made great contributions and was suspected.

According to the habits in the officialdom, after Wang Tong made great contributions, he would be cautious and more low-key. In the face of such slanderous rumors, he should complain privately, but he smiled on the surface, but he did not expect that Wang Tong's counterattack was so fierce and direct, or so simple and crude.

If you don’t tell you any official principles or rules, if you let someone spread rumors, I will catch the rumor. If you let someone siege the yamen, I will catch the siege, and then the court will make this clear statement.

Yan Qing was also talking nonsense, but it sounded unconvincing. After saying a few words, he was coldly interrupted by Emperor Wanli:

"Yan Qing, Lian's territory has expanded, and Lian has such achievements, are you unhappy?"

The words of Emperor Wanli immediately became quiet in the side hall. Yan Qing was the leader of Zhang Siwei's party. Just now, someone asked to come forward to help Yan Qing speak, but Emperor Wanli's cold words immediately made the entire hall know the direction of the wind.

Emperor Wanli tapped the case file presented by Wang Tong with his fingers, and said again:

"Spreading rumors and causing trouble, inciting the people to besiege the official office, Yan Qing, as a minister of the court, is this what you do for the country and the people? ...

Yan Qing was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, took off his Jinxian crown with both hands, placed it solemnly on the ground, and spoke in a solemn voice:

"I am guilty, please punish your Majesty!...

The argument was so fierce just now. After Emperor Wanli reached a conclusion, Yan Qing could clearly argue, but quickly admitted defeat. This was a bit surprising. Emperor Wanli glanced at him a few times and said:

“Since that’s the case…

"Your Majesty, please consider that Yan Qing is honest and does not hesitate to deal with it leniently. Yan Qing's actions are also due to Geng Geng's loyalty."

At this moment, the cabinet assistant Shen Shixing slowly left the line and said in a deep voice that the cabinet assistant Shen Shixing and Zhang Siwei's party had always had the same power and were quite powerful in the court. At this time, Shen Shixing came out to speak for Yan Qing, and everyone was stunned. Then Wang Lin, Yang Wei, Chen Jingbang and others reacted and walked out of the line and knelt down, all pleading for Yan Qing.

Emperor Wanli glanced down and saw Wang Tong kneeling there and his expression had not changed much. He looked back and Zhang Cheng nodded slightly. Emperor Wanli said coldly:

"Go home and think about it for a few days behind closed doors and think about whether what I did is right or wrong!"

Yan Qing really studied the law carefully, and there was no serious sin. Moreover, from Shen Shixing to all the big men in the court, they all went out to plead for mercy, so they also had to give these faces. Emperor Wanli finally made this decision.

According to the quarrels of the court, Wang Tong took out the case file and confessed the punishment of thinking behind closed doors, and the punishment for thinking about his mistakes was actually quite magnanimous. Everyone in the court could even know that the next exhibition was nothing more than Yan Qing's resignation document, and the palace asked him to retire and return home, and the matter was settled.

Yan Qing had no joy on his face, but he just bowed to the emperor in a normal manner, knelt there and glanced at everyone in the hall, then turned his head to look at Wang Tong.

Wang Tong looked indignant at this time. In Yan Qing's eyes, Wang Tong was still very young. It was easy to see whether such indignation was fake. It was indeed anger in his heart. Looking at the other people in the court, each of whom was deeply cunning and implicit, Yan Qing sighed, but kowtowed again on the ground, stood up and said:

"Your Majesty, all the dukes, Yan has done his duty and has no puppet in his heart."

After saying that, he walked out of the hall tremblingly. The atmosphere in the hall was very strange. Even Wang Tong was a little awkward. Yan Qing was so arrogant and spread rumors and made trouble, but he was so righteous. Wang Tong also understood these actions. Yan Qing had to make an attitude. He could not let Wang Tong, a military general like Wang Tong, and the emperor's close ministers climb to a high position of power, and could not let Wang Tong influence the situation of the great Ming Dynasty's civil and noble military dignity.

Yan Qing clearly did something wrong, but he didn't think he had done something wrong, and he felt that he had taken the right position for justice. This was really sad.

Wang Tong took a few deep breaths. It didn't matter how Yan Qing thought it was. He did something wrong. For the sake of his own and his own group, he would harm Wang Tong and the country of the Ming Dynasty. Wang Tong would not agree and would resolutely fight back. Doing Yan Qing's actions was only the first step.

Wang Tong went to court on the first day. In less than half an hour, Yan Qing, the Minister of Personnel, who ranked among the top three ministers in the court, was ordered to think of his mistakes behind closed doors. Although Yan Qing was about to retire and return home in the morning, it still made people feel sad. Everyone saw Wang Tong kneeling there, and Wang Xijue felt a little sneered.

When things reached this point, the court meeting could not continue. Everyone looked around and did not want to continue to discuss politics. They just waited for Emperor Wanli to disperse the court. Everyone went to the cabinet to the cabinet and the six ministries.

Emperor Wanli didn't want to continue with such an atmosphere, cleared his throat and said:

"The army entered the city in two days to offer victory. How is the capital ready to face?"

"Report to Your Majesty, all the offices in the capital have carefully prepared. I went to inspect all places yesterday afternoon. Everything is complete. Please rest assured!"

Shen Shixing bowed and said, Emperor Wanli nodded, patted the case file on the table, and was about to speak when he heard Wang Tong say again:

"Your Majesty, I have something else to do!!"

There were not many people in the palace, but there was still some commotion. Everyone was staring at Wang Tong. Emperor Wanli was stunned and said in a deep voice:

"What's the matter?"
