Chapter 452: The Generous Imperial Grandson(2/2)
Why do all the foreign armies follow suit? Do you, Gao Chunfeng, think that the armies of the Ming Dynasty are all disloyal and unjust? Or do you, Gao Chunfeng, think that the millions of troops of the Ming Dynasty are all people who do not respect the emperor's orders?
What exactly do you, Gao Chunfeng, want to do!"
In anger, Cao Zhen cursed angrily, and it can be said that he wanted to scold Gao Yangzhi as the biggest treacherous official in the Ming Dynasty.
Even Huixian Bo Sangjing who was beside him couldn't help but pull him away.
"pass!"
Sang Jing was a little worried, as the usual discussion of merit had become such a big fuss.
If the trouble continues, I'm afraid it will all involve civil and military matters.
Xie Jin coughed lightly, looked at the people present, and spoke softly with a smile on his face: "If we talk about military merit, whether it is the southern expedition or the eastern expedition, it has contributed to the destruction of the country, and it can be promoted to the king according to the military merit law. It is just the country
It is true that the title of king should not be given lightly. If Chang Sheng cannot be promoted to the title of king, then Li Jinglong, Duke of Cao during the Eastern Expedition, cannot be promoted alone. The fairness of the court cannot be compromised."
After finishing speaking, Xie Jin's eyes searched the crowd.
Xia Yuanji's brows twitched. He didn't know how to explain why the gentleman was targeting him.
He frowned slightly and thought about it carefully.
Finally, he looked at Xie Jin again.
Xia Yuanji Jingjin nodded silently to him, then sighed silently and walked to the front behind the officials.
"Your Highness, I have a report from Xia Yuanji, the left minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs."
Cao Zhen saw that no matter whether it was a southern expedition or an eastern expedition, he might not be able to be crowned king. Although the object of the agreement was not himself, he felt resentful in his heart.
He spoke again: "Your Highness..."
Zhu Yunxi immediately raised his head, glared slightly, and stopped Cao Zhen's words. Then he turned the ring on his hand, shook his head, and looked at Xie Jin beside him.
He chuckled softly: "Do you have anything to say, Minister Xia, about the negotiation of military merits?"
Xia Yuanji nodded, his face a little solemn.
Mr. Xie didn't want to be a bad guy, but he wanted to be a traitor among the civil servants.
Xia Yuanji knew it from the moment Mr. Jie looked at him.
Master Xie and Gao Chunfeng, the two masters and disciples, just didn't want to be seen as villains. They made the two of them lose points with the civil servants because of their meritorious deeds.
Otherwise, he would not have said anything to the noble gentry. Chang Sheng's military exploits would have allowed him to be promoted to a royal title.
What is Jin Feng?
That's because Chang Sheng was originally the founding Duke of the Ming Dynasty. Now that he has sufficient military merit, he has only been promoted from Duke to Prince.
Xia Yuanji's face was a little solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "We think that the imperial court's concerns are just that the generals in the outside world will covet military achievements and become kings in the future, and do their own thing, starting conquests and killings without authorization. As long as the imperial court makes up for this,
The millions of troops are all following the imperial decree, so this concern can be solved."
There is a traitor in our ranks!
As soon as Xia Yuanji's words came out of his mouth, countless eyes that could swallow him were immediately projected towards him.
Zhu Yunxi laughed: "How to crack it?"
Xia Yuan Ji Rumang was holding his back, but even after he had said the words, he could only bite the bullet and said: "The court only needs to decide that only the four conquerors can be crowned kings due to their merits. At that time, the concerns of Bachelor and Gao will be solved
, and naturally it disappeared.”
Throughout the dynasties of the Central Plains, there was a practice of setting up generals for four expeditions and four expeditions. Generally, large armies were sent out and the leading generals were awarded the position.
Xia Yuanji's proposal directly restricted the conditions for obtaining the opportunity to be crowned king to the extreme, but it was also reasonable.
It is naturally impossible for ordinary soldiers to reach the sky in one step and become king in one battle.
Even ordinary military generals, even if they have merit, still have a long way to go.
Only when you become a conquering general who can lead an army alone can you have the opportunity to create unparalleled military exploits and gain the opportunity to be crowned king.
Zhu Yunxi finally showed a touch of satisfaction in his eyes. He looked sideways at the chief assistant who had not spoken for a long time: "Mr. Ren Ge, do you think this is appropriate for Xia Shilang to say? Although Gu Gu absolutely trusts our soldiers and will never leave alone.
It happened, but imposing such restrictions will also comply with the rules in the future."
Ren Hengtai felt helpless.
Things have reached this stage, and it is impossible for me to be a villain and really forcefully stop Duke Founding and Duke Cao from becoming kings.
Ren Hengtai slowly bowed and clasped his fists: "What Minister Xia said is of course excellent and very appropriate."
Zhu Yunxi clapped his hands and said: "In this case, we can proceed to discuss the kingship of Duke Founder and Duke Cao."
