Chapter 303: Strong Zhengde

The scattered ten thousand words are never common these days. After all, no one is in the cabin, the literati or the supreme emperor, who is not as patient as watching a minister chatting around himself in the memorial. The time for the emperor and the boss is limited, so long stories and short words are shorter, concise and concise have become a compulsory course for every official. However, this law is obviously not suitable for Zhu Houzhao. It was time to light the lamp, and he leaned on the cold couch and a palace maid was fanning him, staring at the memorial thick as if it was a book in his hand. As he looked at it, he couldn't help laughing.

"I knew he was accustomed to setting traps, but now he was trapping Zhu Hui, the Duke of the National Guard!"

Liu Jin, who was standing aside, had already seen these things. He felt very comfortable about Xu Xun and Zhang Yong's memorials. After all, this means that the two of them agreed that he is the most essential person around Zhu Houzhao. So, when Zhu Houzhao muttered, he said intriguedly: "No? If you say that Duke Baoguo and Master Miao are too cautious, it is no wonder that the old people in the court kept urging the troops."

"They knew that if the war on the front line was so easy, how could the governor Li Jin, who was well-read in poetry, suffer such a big defeat? Leave no nonsense, I will not go to the West Gate early tomorrow morning, and call all the three old gentlemen in the cabinet and the six ministries and the people in the Wenhua Palace to discuss matters. I agreed to support Xu Xun, and I can't let them fight alone this time!"

The next morning was June 15th, which was the fifteenth day of the past. Now, due to the funeral of Emperor Hongzhi, the dynasty was still held at Xijiao Gate. The officials arranged their shifts outside the Meridian Gate early in the morning, and entered in sequence and set up in front of Xijiao Gate under the guidance of the Honglu Temple. The summer sun had already risen early. Although there was no heat, it was still not good to be sunk on the heads of people. Soon, some elderly ministers had already oozed a little bit of sweat from their foreheads. However, everyone thought that the emperor would come in a short while, but after a quarter of an hour, a eunuch was waiting for.

"The emperor has issued an order. The five things reported in the court have been submitted last night and all of them are approved. Although it is already autumn, the weather is still hot. The emperor is sympathetic to the hard work of all the ministers and is exempted from the court today. The military situation of the Xuanfu Wanquan was urgent. Three gentlemen from the cabinet and all the ministers of the six ministries and the ministers of the Censorate of the Six Ministry immediately went to Wenhua Hall to discuss matters, and the other officials returned to the yamen to handle affairs."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Jin saw the officials below in an uproar. He immediately cursed and was not tactful. He then coughed lightly and raised his voice and said, "The emperor is thinking of you waiting for hard work. Each of the fifth grade or above will give you a watermelon and a drink of ice below the fifth grade or below to relieve the heat, so that you can be more energetic to handle all matters."

With his light wave, more than a dozen small firemen immediately raised baskets of watermelons, followed by several large tea barrels. Faced with the sudden exemption of the court and the same sudden reward, the officials immediately discussed it. However, Zhu Houzhao, the young emperor of the Astronomical Palace, attended on time every time, and they could not find too many words to criticize. Although some people left in anger, more people still received the rewards according to their official positions before leaving. Liu Jian and others naturally would not care about these. Seeing many low-quality officials scrambling to get ice to relieve heat, someone couldn't help but sigh.

"This is the first day of courtship..."

"Thousands of people went to court, and even Tianyan could not see clearly at the farthest. In the past, I didn't know how many people could not escape from each other. Among them, there were nobles like Marquis of Shouning, Marquis of Jianchang, Marquis of Shouning. If they were exempted from court, they would be exempted from court. What kind of behavior do you do!" Minister of War Liu Daxia interrupted the man's feelings in anger, and then looked around everyone and said, "If you have time to think about this, it's better to think about the Ministry of Rites today, but suddenly we were summoned all of us. What do the emperor want to do!"

Yes, what does the emperor want to do?

Whether it is Ma Wensheng, the veteran of the Five Dynasties, or other elders who have been in three or four dynasties, they were in a state of confusion. In the discussions these days, Zhu Houzhao has been renovating all day long, and they need not talk about their hard work. And those small things are fine. Today, I have already talked about the complete military information of the Xuanfu, which must involve the military affairs in the front line. I just hope that the young emperor will not make any trouble.

However, fearing that something is wrong, everyone came to Wenhua Hall before they stood up. Zhu Houzhao rushed into the hall excitedly. He sat on the throne in the middle, and after everyone kowtowed and stood up, he said bluntly: "I have summoned all the ministers here today, which is about the complete military affairs of the Xuanfu. Before, the general of the Xuanfu Zhang Jun and his party defeated such a big defeat, and the court has been controversial about whether they missed the opportunity or died."

"Report to the emperor, the ministers and others have agreed that the inspector Zhili Censor Xia Shi will go to Xuanfu to investigate the general Zhang Jun's eunuch Liu Qing and others..."

After Liu Jian finished his words, Zhu Houzhao waved his hand impatiently and said, "If you are investigating, you have to do what you should do first. Baoguo Duke wrote a letter to the left gang general Shen Ying and Li Jun and others. I decided to send another 6,000 troops to reinforce, and then pick up another 20,000 people from the 12th Regiment Battalion to prepare, so that Xing'an Bo and others can practice it. If there is any change in the war, you can send it to Xuanfu at any time. And..."

This said one by one, which made the ministers' faces very ugly. Zhu Houzhao ignored their expressions at all, paused and said to himself: "There are Zhang Jun and Liu Qing who have been in Xuanfu for many years. Now they have been defeated and put it aside, which is a waste of people. The Tartars once once heavily suppressed the Wanquan Right Acropolis. Although they have withdrawn, their whereabouts have become a mystery. Xu Xun has written a letter to ask for the Wanquan Right Acropolis. He was originally the one who asked me to transfer this time. There was no investigation information but still stayed in Xuanfu. So I plan to make sure that Zhang Jun and Liu Qing are accompanying him, even if they are guilty and make meritorious."

Xie Qian argued almost without thinking: "Emperor, the world is shocked by this defeat. Even if Zhang Jun and others are not guilty of punishment, they should be arrested and investigated in Beijing, or held them accountable or not. There must be a detailed investigation process. Moreover, now the Duke of Baoguo is the general officer, and Xu Xun passed him to report the memorial, which is not immune to the military law. Moreover, the Wanquan Right Guard is the northernmost acropolis in the entire Xuanfu, and there may be enemies at any time. Xu Xun has never been on the battlefield. If he is in danger, he is utterly sent to the door. I beg the emperor to think twice."

"After I checked it out, the Tartars had already run away! After all, Zhang Jun had contacted the enemy. Liu Qing had been in Xuanfu for many years. He made them guilty and made meritorious. Even if I didn't employ people, it was to say that I didn't use them in full due to victory or defeat. It was also to see if they could come up with the same thing after the defeat! As for Xu Xun who passed the Duke Baoguo to submit the memorial, I had given him the right to report directly. Besides, he had reported the Duke Baoguo, but the Duke Baoguo was not sure. Could it be that he really had nothing to do in Xuanfu? Then what's the point of recommending him to Xuanfu at that time!"

Zhu Houzhao spoke louder and louder, and finally stood up: "You are the ones who started to urge the troops, you are the ones who transferred people to Xuanfu, and you are the ones who said he could not go without the battle formation! He just knew that he was young and had no experience, so he wanted Zhang Jun and others to defeat the generals of the Tiantian Wenxue Network to be brave, but how many famous generals have been in the world since ancient times and the present have never been defeated? Could it be that they will be gone after the defeat?"

At this moment, Zhu Houzhao completely forgot that he had cursed Zhang Jun and others in front of Xu Xun before, and even forgot about the original words on Xu Xun's memorial. Seeing that the ministers were so choked by him that they could hardly speak, he said angrily: "I have decided on this matter, this is an order, not a discussion with you. Of course, if you do not obey the order, I will go to the Censorate and the Sixth Corridor to let the censors defend their statement first!"

Since the young emperor ascended the throne, all the big guys felt that the censors who used to be used in the past have gradually become less capable now. There are a few people who are shaking flags and cheering around the emperor's decree. Although it is only a small group, it can be foreseen that they can become a large group anytime and anywhere. What's more, Xu Xun's actions are indeed unruly, but finding faults is only a problem. It is obvious that this boy who has made countless people worry in the capital has not planned to make contributions in Xuanfu.

So, after three or three, even talking to each other, Liu Jian, as the chief minister of the cabinet, finally bowed deeply: "I received the order."

Zhu Houzhao was so powerful today, just to achieve this matter. At this moment, he finally sat down with a sigh of relief, but said, "That's it. Hard work in state affairs is what should be praised. Since Zhang Jun and Liu Qing went to Wanquan Youwei together, then Governor Li Jin also let him come out to do things. Suddenly, many soldiers and horses were nearby, so it was necessary for him to come out to help the people. Also, Wang Shouren is still helping to supervise the transportation of food and grass? He, the head of the Ministry of War, is too useless, so let him go to Juyongguan! Didn't it be said that the enemy's enemy was rampant before, please increase troops in Juyongguan and Aries' mouth? It's right, the Beijing camp each sent one thousand infantry to cooperate in the defense. As for Zijing Pass and Maguan, no matter where to transfer one thousand people nearby."

Speaking of this, he saw that his head seemed to have no objection, so he stood up again and stretched his waist to relieve the fatigue of thinking about the words he said today last night, but he finally held it back and said with his hands behind his back: "After I said this, some of you are very busy next time, let's all be separated, let's part... I am an impartial person. I had hated Zhang Jun's teeth before, but now I am not talking to him, a defeated general? Some of Li Jin, a Jinshi, were from the same hometown as the same year, but Zhang Jun did not, so I have to give people a fairness to commit crimes and make meritorious contributions. In this way, I will go back first!"

Seeing that the little emperor turned his back so casually and left, Liu Jian and others who were still there even forgot to salute. Until Zhu Houzhao and those insiders disappeared completely, Liu Jian said with a cold face: "I don't care which of you is the same year as Li Jin. The state has the national law. What crime he will find next is what crime!"
