Chapter 513.
The atmosphere of Wen Yuan Pavilion was steeply tense.
Seeing the situation frozen.
Instead, someone else rounded up, but it was Liu Guan.
Liu Guan said, “Gentlemen, what time is it now, this is a good end, why are you still arguing? In the end which sentence, but also please show, now everyone is there, just to participate in one or two.”
Hu Guang looked very angry and didn’t ease his face because of Liu Guan’s rounding up, he just snorted coldly and didn’t comment.
In fact, he and Jin Youzi’s relationship is good, can be said to have friendship, but the more so, the more he is angry for this. Because he thought that Jin Youzi deceived himself, is the deception of the world.
Jin Youzi on the contrary appeared to be stable, see Liu Guan inquired, then said, “Among the posthumous edicts, there is a sentence …… is: the enthronement of Zhang Anshi as the king of Song ……”
When these words came out, the expressions of the crowd showed a different color.
Song Wang …… This is the title of Prince, alongside the sons of Emperor Taizu Gao as well as the King of Zhao and the King of Han.
Zhang Anshi was able to register a county king, which was already considered extraordinarily favorable.
Sort of breaks the mold.
But now comes such an addition, absolutely unprecedented.
In his life, Zhu Di, in the name of pacification, accused Emperor Jianwen of destroying the ancestral law, which made him the Son of Heaven.
Because of this, so the Yongle dynasty, no matter what to do, no matter whether or not all act according to the ancestral system, but at least, are playing the signboard of the law of the ancestors.
The only thing is that the matter of Zhang Anshi being crowned king is simply a blatant trampling on Zhu Yuanzhang’s Chengfa.
And now, it continues to add layers and layers, and is actually going to be added to the Prince.
But the ministers think carefully, it seems …… that such a grace is added, and it is also true that Zhu Di can do it.
After all …… the present day His Majesty is too special, and only he has the courage to risk universal condemnation and make such a breakthrough, and if it is the emperor of the later generations, he may not have this determination.
Combined with the merits of Zhang Anshi, as well as Zhu Di s trust in Zhang Anshi, it can be said that …… the possibility is not small.
Besides, it is precisely because it is a posthumous edict that it is so possible.
If it were any other time, Zhu Di would have issued this decree, there would have been ministers who would have advised him.
Not to mention other people, even some of the university scholars in the Wen Yuan Pavilion who were inclined towards Zhang Anshi would only feel that Enrong was too much and request His Majesty to think twice.
But the difference between the posthumous edict is that the emperor at this time are going to die, even if his last words are no longer reasonable, there will never be someone to go to him to raise the bar, and there is no way to go to ask him to take back the order.
What’s more, this posthumous edict as the emperor’s last dying account, the new emperor who succeeded the great lineage, is categorically dare not easily overthrow.
It could be argued that this was Zhu’s last word, and that questioning the posthumous edict was itself an overthrow of his own legitimacy.
Other things can be disobeyed, but not the posthumous edict.
The ministers were silent, and some people lamented …… that this Zhang Anshi …… really did not know what kind of luck he had.
There are others who are obviously keenly aware …… that things should not be so simple.
Consequently, in the midst of the silence, the crowd looked at Kim Youzi.
Jin Youzi continued: “The new king ascended to the throne, Zhang Anshi as the King of Song, his eldest son Changsheng, for the King of Song, the second son Changnian, inherited the Wuhu County King! Make it a vassal of Xinzhou, enshrine the family temple, hereditary, the end of the Ming dynasty, and the court with the rich and powerful.”
As the ministers listened, many of them seemed to understand something in a flash.
He got the title of Prince, and even his son got a county king, which can be said to be the most important person in the world, and he has no more regrets in his life.
And naturally, as a Prince, he should return to his fiefdom to take up his vassalage, just like the other feudal lords.
After all, Zhu Di’s two own sons have been feudalized, this His Royal Highness the King of Song, there is no reason to continue to stay in this capital, right?
This is definitely an extremely attractive will, and can even be said …… to be a happy situation for all.
For the Zhang family, having worked hard until now, what else is there to pursue? Why not go back to your own vassal land, endeavor to create your own vassal state, and like all the clansmen, open up the frontier, and reign supreme in that ocean of ten thousand miles of blue waves.
And for more people, if Zhang Anshi could leave the capital, how could this not be a delight?
Once Zhang Anshi left, although Zhang Anshi left behind the team is still powerful, but want to continue the depth of the new policy, is already impossible.
It’s not even …… clear that the whole New Deal came to an abrupt end.
After all, among the New Deal, the most difficult to deal with, not necessarily the New Deal this force, but in …… Zhang Anshi this difficult opponent.
Zhang Anshi was like a spiritual totem, causing many people to spontaneously gather around him.
But once we lose Zhang Anshi, the situation may not be the same.
Especially in Zhili, those people cultivated by Zhang Anshi have not yet entered the center and really hold the power in their hands.
To deal with these people, it is only necessary to draw them together or divide them, and over time, they will fall apart.
As for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, as well as the royal grandson, there may not be no way out.
All in all, the loss of Zhang Anshi’s influence, at least for the time being, can also be a source of great relief.
Immediately, a deathly silence rose in this hall.
Half a minute later, only suddenly someone said: “Jin Gong said, may not have been, in my opinion, since Jin Gong heard His Majesty’s will, others have not heard, or other two Gongs did not hear for a while. But this is after all his majesty’s holy will, if therefore this holy will be removed from the edict, if his majesty knows, must be regretful. As ministers of the people, we should respect the holy will, how can we be sloppy and careless?”
The one who spoke was Xia Yuanji, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue.
Natsubara Yoshi’s remark is not without merit.
Three people have a person to hear, then the scenario was that His Majesty when really the words were ambiguous, someone did not hear it is not surprising, but this is the holy will, can not be because someone did not hear, turn a blind eye to it.
This word out, many people will also have started nodding: “Yes also, yes also, this is a big deal, non-trivial, not to mention …… in my opinion, His Majesty loves His Highness the King of Wuhu County, and at this time still misses the King of Wuhu County, His Majesty’s heart of love is visible, if I and other courtiers, neglected to go, this …… is really ashamed of His Majesty’s generous grace ……”
With that, some people began to weep.
That’s the thing about this kind of thing, once someone starts shedding tears, it’s kind of hard to tell if the others don’t follow suit a little bit.
So the crowd wept.
Wiping the tears, someone choked and stood up, but it was Wu Zhong, the Minister of Public Works.
Wu Zhong sadly said, “If it is against the holy will, is it not a failure of the holy grace? In my opinion, this …… article should be added to the list. What do Duke Xie, Duke Yang, and Duke Hu …… think?”
Xie Jin is slow and easy to say; “I have not been in the imperial court to hear the edict, and look at everyone’s ideas.”
Yang Rong swept a glance at the crowd and said, “This one is unheard of.”
Hu Guang still tense face, attitude is the most intense: “Not unheard of, is simply not this sentence. Although His Majesty’s oracles are ambiguous, but every spit word, even if not clear, just a sentence out, what is the meaning, I’m not deaf, how would I not know? This is pretense!”
At these words, the crowd changed color.
The word “pretense” is an extremely serious matter, and it is not too much to say that it is a blatant rip-off.
After all, pretense and conspiracy to rebel is comparable, generally between colleagues, unless to the point of immortality, it is not possible to carry out such accusations, the so-called everything left a line of reasoning, that is the case.
People who can reach such a point as the University Doctor of Wen Yuan Ge are bound to be people who act steadily and can think twice before acting, and it is even more unlikely that they will take such drastic words and phrases.
Jin Youzi said, “Hu Gong’s meaning is …… Jin Mou dare to pretend?”
This rhetorical question was to the point.
Yes, this is the sealing of Zhang Anshi, he Jin Youzhi and Zhang Anshi plainly have no favor, even if Zhang Anshi is Jin Youzhi’s own son, Jin Youzhi how can he be willing to risk the risk of executing the clan to give Zhang Anshi the sealing?
At least on the bright side, the reasoning goes.
Hu Guang was obviously furious, his eyes widened and he said angrily: “Think I don’t know? This is an excuse to drive Zhang Anshi away, Zhang Anshi is certainly in the capital or not, and Hu has nothing to do with it, but Hu has not heard that His Majesty has this edict, that is, no! This kind of thing, how can you be ambiguous …… In short, this edict …… is drawn up by you Jin Youzi, has nothing to do with Hu Mou, and also has nothing to do with Wen Yuan Pavilion.”
His face swelled red with excitement, and he looked like he was going to fight someone with his sleeves pushed up.
On the side of Yang Rong frowned, gently coughing, want to signal something, but Hu Guang ignored not to say, turned his head, exasperated Yang Rong said: “Yang Rong do not have to cough, you cough when can be good?”
Yang Rong sat with a helpless face.
“Aiya, don’t argue, don’t argue, it’s this time of the day, how can you disorganize yourself? What is there to say that can’t be said properly?” Liu Guan advised from the side.
Hu Guang then said, “Then Liu Gong, you are the Secretary of the Ministry of Rites, etiquette is the great righteousness, you uphold the etiquette, and how to say?”
Liu Guan pinch beard, slowly said: “According to the old man, this one well, add into the posthumous edict can, not add can also ……”
“Bah!” Someone spat directly at Liu Guan’s face, and this person wasn’t even Hu Guang, but Jin Zhong.
Jin Zhong would have been too sad, at this time also gradually tasted something, the heart has long been blocked with panic, but also can be patient, but heard the words of Liu Guan, ultimately did not hold back, directly spit Liu Guan face spit.
He stared at Liu Guan, gasping: “Right and wrong, is this the way to discuss? Is this the way to decide what is right and what is wrong? This is a big matter, and it is possible to pass it off like this, not just like this? Since the two princes have never heard of it, then why isn’t someone using the opportunity to disrupt the public hearing? Is there another plan?”
Liu Guan is busy is woefully wiping his face, one side said, “This is like what words, this is like what words, Jin Zhong, I have no grudges with you in the past, I have no hatred, I also invited you to eat a meal, you …… you ……”
That’s when someone said, “Forget it, forget it.”
But it is the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, Jin Chun, Jin Chun said, “Pay attention to the ministerial etiquette …….”
Hu Guang exclaimed in exasperation, “This is rebellion, it’s ganging up.”
“Who did Huguang say was forming a party?” Jin Youzi stared at Hu Guang.
“Says you!” Hu Guang glared at him angrily.
Jin Youzi coldly said, “You and I are from the same hometown, I have always respected you, but you left a sentence of pretense, right a sentence of forming a party, this is what a gentleman does?”
Hu Guang looked at him with sarcasm in his eyes and said, “Whether I am a gentleman or not is up in the air, but you are a villain.”
Jin Youzi said, “You have a personal grudge with Zhang Anshi, so you have to listen to Zhang Anshi to seal the Prince, so turn a blind eye, because of private waste of public affairs, is the villain.”
“Shameless!” Hu Guang roared in a burst of anger.
“You’re the one who’s shameless!”
Hu Guang was furious and pushed up his sleeves to raise his fists to fight, but after finally raising his fists, he still held back, so he waved his fists and said, “Say one more word.”
“Shameless, what, you want to hit someone again?”
“You think the old man doesn’t dare to fight?”
“Shameless, you fight.”
“The fight is on you.”
“You fight.”
“I have to teach you a lesson today.”
“You fight.”
“I …… am a disorganized person, and everyone should be punished!”
“Go ahead and fight!”
Hu Guang finally put his hand down and hid it in his sleeve, and then said with a taut face, “I am not going to fall for your cunning plan.”
Jin Youzi said faintly, “Hu Gong is no better.”
Hu Guang coldly snorted, “These words are useless to me.”
The crowd was so dumbfounded by what they saw that their jaws were actually staring so hard that they couldn’t speak.
Just at this time, many people have realized …… that …… next …… this His Majesty may not have swallowed the last breath, or …… when the bones are not cold, a storm, has been brewing.
…………
“Your Highness, Your Highness ……”
Someone called out as they hurried to the ground and jogged to the Man Building.
Walking into the side hall, the eunuch came up for air and said, “Fight …… up, poor poor …… a little fight up.”
Zhu Gaoqi and Zhang Anshi were here to serve, and when they heard the news, they couldn’t help but be dumbfounded and say, “Who wants to fight?”
Zhang Anshi, on the other hand, looked excited and exuberant, “Who won the fight?”
When the eunuch slowed his breath, he spoke in detail about what had happened in Wen Yuan Pavilion.
Zhu Gaoqi: “……”
Zhu Gaoqi was clearly stunned.
Zhang Anshi fell back and said quietly, “So it hasn’t been a fight yet.”
He couldn’t help but have a few regrets.
The history of the Ming dynasty ministers fight a lot of things, but not many Yongle dynasty, it is not easy to be a little bit of movement, but the result is that the light thunder does not rain.
But Zhu Gaoqi was frowning, he was concerned about another matter, so he said, “The Grand Maester has a disagreement? Or is it about His Majesty’s oracle?”
He dared not speak of a posthumous decree, which would still be an oracle as long as his father’s father survived.
Zhang Anshi just remembered that he …… seems to be a prince.
But Zhang Anshi is not a fool, he, the Prince, has a price.
The Prince is more of a prize.
Obviously, it is impossible for His Majesty to issue such an oracle, then …… there is only one possibility for passing out such an oracle.
That is, there are people who want Zhang Anshi to become a vassal.
Needless to say, this hand was very powerful, as it was done in the name of doing good for the Zhang family.
How generous is it to go to Sinchow as a landlord and be a vassal for generations to come?
With his hands behind his back, Zhu Gaoqi glanced at Zhang Anshi and said, “Did this come from Father’s mouth or not?”
Said Zhu Gaoqi, pacing back and forth, looking unsure.
Because it could really be something his fatherly father could do.
Zhu Gaoqi is to filial piety, Zhu Di’s posthumous edict is bound to comply with, after all,…… he is the successor of the Ketsu Daito, if you overthrow the posthumous edict, then the posthumous edict also let Zhu Gaoqi Ketsu Daito, whether it is also to be overthrown?
Zhang Anshi, however, suddenly said, “Brother-in-law, you rest here for a while, I will go to take a look at His Majesty s dragon body …….”
Zhu Gaoqi frowned, he had wanted to have a good discussion with Zhang Anshi, who would have thought that Zhang Anshi would want to get his feet wet, so he had to helplessly shake his head and say, “Father is important, you and go.”
Zhu Gaoqi looked extremely tired, today is really too much tossing and turning, he fell into a chair, his complexion became more and more gloomy.
Zhang Anshi, however, had already entered the bedchamber in a flash.
At this time, the bedchamber, in addition to Zhu Di, will be empty, which is Zhu Di’s meaning.
So when Zhang Anshi tiptoed in, Zhu Di was still lying there, eyes closed, motionless, as if dead.
After Zhang Anshi approached a bit closer, he saluted, “Your Majesty, Your Majesty ……”
Zhu, however, remained still.
Zhang Anshi patiently called out in a low voice a few more times.
Zhu still didn’t move.
Zhang Anshi had no choice but to quietly go to the couch and mumble a few words in a low voice.
These words, like a strong heart needle, violently …… Zhu Di sits up openly.
Zhu Di’s tiger eyes gleamed as he stared at Zhang Anshi, “Is that so?”
Zhang Anshi laughed bitterly: “are going to fight, make a big fuss, how can there be a fake …… Your Majesty …… party really said …… to add the seal? ”
Zhu Di couldn’t help but roll his eyes and said, “You think I’m this stupid?”
“Ah …… this ……” Zhang Anshi couldn’t help but look gloomy when he heard it.
Zhu Di noticed Zhang Anshi’s emotions, but said, “Teach you to take the feudal …… This must be something else, actually Jin Youzi …… I really never thought… . originally thought …… it would be Hu Guang ……”
“Ah ……” Zhang Anshi said with a surprised face, “Your Majesty is even suspicious of Wen Yuan Ge ……”
Zhu Di slowly said, “The matter of the Fangshi …… is by no means a few unusual officials can be manipulated, and the people behind …… it must not be that simple. If it is really just a few small thieves in the district, a retainer, a Han Lin, I will not endure for so long, with that surname Xu around it?”
He paused and added: “I originally thought that in the Wen Yuan Pavilion, the most suspicious is Hu Guang. This person, Hu Guang, is as wise as a fool, looks like a fool, but I have always felt that he may not be so simple.”
“The second may be Yang Rong, Yang Rong this person, too smart, a person so shrewd …… to teach people to feel unfathomable, difficult to penetrate, so I have so much wariness.”
“But never thought ……” said Zhu Di deeply tightened his brow.
Obviously, the result was too unexpected for him.
Zhang Anshi, on the other hand, felt that Zhu Di’s analysis just now was very reasonable, so he subconsciously nodded his head.
Then, Zhang Anshi stared closely at Zhu Di and inquired, “Your Majesty …… what should we do now?”
After a pause, Zhang Anshi added: “On my side, the Brocade Guards can be …… used at any time.”
Zhu pursed his lips and seemed to be pondering something.
And then slowly and methodically leaned his back on the edge of the bed behind him, and then looked at Zhang Anshi with ulterior motives before saying, “Why does Jin Youzi want to pretend to be an imperial decree, and can he pretend …… to be an imperial decree that can really achieve his purpose? Now it seems …… as if …… Wen Yuange is not supportive …… of him.”
Zhang Anshi’s heart shook as he listened, and it seemed that he was also starting to come back to his senses.
