A court meeting that was originally targeted at Mao Wenlong and then completely involved in the eunuch party ended with the disastrous defeat of the instigator Donglin. In just a blink of an eye, four important Donglin officials including the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Households, and the Yushi were lost.

Several generals in the position, especially Zou Yuanbiao, the Donglin flag, were forced to take away. This was really a complete defeat.

Because Mao Wenlong jumped out, all the forces in the capital were once again turbulent. Everyone was worried and trembling. Of course, many people were eager to give it a try.

Therefore, everyone finally turned their attention to the real head of Ming Dynasty, Chief Assistant Ye Xianggao.

After Ye Xianggao dismissed the dynasty, he immediately requested to see the emperor alone, and was immediately summoned by the emperor.

At Ye Xianggao's request, Tianqi drove away all the eunuchs and maids around him, and stipulated that no one was allowed to approach within ten feet, not even the queen. Because Tianqi knew that his conversation with Ye Xianggao would definitely

It cannot be leaked. Once leaked, the consequences will be absolutely catastrophic.

In the imperial study room, it was also an imperial banquet, but Ye Xianggao was not as frustrated as Mao Wenlong. He just sat there, leaning forward to accept the dishes handed over by the emperor, without any fear or fear.

A veteran of three dynasties and the sole prime minister of the Ming Dynasty, Professor Jing Yan can be regarded as a half-apocalyptic master. He deserves such respect.

"Mr. Ye, this is the smoked rabbit, a specialty of Pi Island, that Mao Shuai brought as tribute. It tastes great. I will send someone to take you there tomorrow." Today's victory made Tianqi feel much better, so he expressed his gratitude to Ye Xianggao.

There will be more respect.

Ye Xianggao leaned forward again, looked at the extremely excited Tianqi, and said: "It's passed, it's passed."

Tianqi said proudly: "Mao Shuai gave me five cars this time, and there are five more cars. He said that he would sell them to various merchants in the capital to open up sales for his Pidao smoked rabbits and raise some money for the Pidao soldiers.

Military expenses are used to find a way out for the people of Pi Island. I have five cars to myself and I will send you one car, but, no more."

Ye Xianggao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The old minister said that what happened in court this time has been over."

Tianqi stopped giving his master Ye Xiang Gao Bucai's hand, stood there, his original excited expression slowly faded, and finally said: "Mr. Ye, you are not in the court, you don't know how much Shuai Mao has revealed

The ugly faces of officials, I really didn’t expect that the officials of our Ming Dynasty, the so-called gentlemen, had such ugly and bad looks. I really didn’t expect that they would be so despicable.”

Of course Ye Xianggao knew what was going on in the entire court today. When Tianqi said this, he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "The Ming Dynasty has been suffering from long-standing shortcomings, and political disadvantages have arisen for a long time. This is also a historical necessity. The government needs to be rectified. This has reached the point where it is urgent, but

The emperor should also understand the principle that when the water is clear, there will be no fish. Both the old minister and Master Sun and Master Yuan once told the emperor at the sutra banquet. Although those people did some dirty work, they still need to be managed.

In this country, if the emperor wants to use Mao Wenlong to knock down all the bad officials with one stroke, then who will govern the court?"

Looking at Tianqi who was still unwilling to accept it, Ye Xianggao said patiently: "Everyone in the world is a gentleman, at least not now. Not to mention others, even veterans have to receive some ice and carbon respect from their subordinates within a year.

Those who live their fifth and sixth birthdays must also receive money from filial piety gifts from their disciples and former officials. If they don’t accept it, they will not be able to live up to the same standards. That is just fishing for fame, that is self-respect, and then they are not in harmony with the group. The end result will be to be ignored by everyone.

If people reject it, then we won’t be able to do anything.”

This is Ye Xianggao's heartfelt words to this half-disciple, "Like Hai Rui, you are pure when you are pure, but you can't do anything."

Tianqi said angrily: "If you do this under my nose, do you still take me as the emperor seriously? If I don't kill them, they will still regard me as the emperor as an idiot."

When Ye Xianggao saw that Tianqi was talking indiscriminately and was talking about me, he covered his mouth and coughed softly: "Long live, please respect yourself."

Tianqi sighed: "Okay, I, ah, I'll ask Mr. Ye to teach you a lesson."

"Long live, their arrogance should be killed. I don't object to this, but going too far is not enough, and overdoing it is also a mistake." Then he asked the emperor to sit across from him, and began to enter the role of a master educating his disciples and said patiently: "I remember back then. When Fang Congzhe was the chief assistant, the "Zhejiang Party" group organized during Shen Yiguan's reign still existed and won the victory in the battle to overthrow Li Sancai. This worsened the situation in Donglin and made the veteran uneasy about his position. Only then would he be eager to resign. But the exchange conditions were acceptable to both parties. The old master was in the opposition, and Fang Congzhe came out to take charge.

However, although Fang Congzhe reluctantly wanted to remain neutral, the changes in the situation soon made him find that he had to fall into the whirlpool of party disputes. At that time, his official behavior was domineering, and Fang Congzhe was very harshly criticized, especially on the issue of voting, whether it was to defend the voting. His attitude toward power or the content of the vote were all criticized by the public officials. Under this situation, although Fang Congzhe strived to be fair, he had to rely on his own "party members" to maintain basic ruling rights. In fact, Being stuck in the quagmire of party strife and being unable to extricate yourself. As a result, you end up falling into party strife despite not wanting to do so. This is Master Fang's tragedy."

Tianqi still had an impression of Fang Congzhe not long ago, especially when he heard about the past events. Fang Congzhe and his current self were so imaginative, so he listened with an open mind to see if there was a solution.

Ye Xianggao saw that Tianqi was rarely able to sit still and listen attentively, so he continued patiently: "People have always said that Congzhe is a member of the Zhejiang Party, but this is not necessarily the case. He has lived in the capital for a long time. In addition to his disciples, he mainly organized his own personal network. Shen Guangyuan's "Zhejiang Party" such as Zhao Huan and others are just allies."

In the 43rd year of Wanli, Emperor Shenzong appointed Zhao Huan as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. Adopting Zhao Huan's opinions, each ministry appointed 4 ministers, and selected 17 additional ministers and 50 censors. They were well-known for their reputation. Dandong Lin still controlled everything. The main reason was not only the old hatred with the Zhejiang Party, but also the issue of the difference in treatment of Jinshi in the "Gengshu List (38th year of Wanli)". All Jinshi in the same year were talented people, but Zhou Yongchun, Because Han Jun was from Qi, he joined the "Qi Party" and became very useful. Several other people were also "eager for wealth" (Xia Yun's Yi language), so they were dissatisfied and turned to Donglin as the backbone, such as Qian Qianyi, Zhou Tingru and others."

"Mr. Ye, I know this. In the end, the power of the Three Parties increased greatly and they began to eliminate Donglin."

"In the end, the party dispute in the three major cases caused Donglin to overturn the situation, and now the Donglin family is the dominant one." Ye Xianggao couldn't help but feel sad, stood up and paced on the ground with his hands behind his back.

Tianqi punched his thigh with hatred: "That's why I used Mao Wenlong to prepare to completely overthrow these Donglin Party members."

Ye Xianggao turned around and said patiently to Tianqi: "Long live, you are wrong again."

"Why am I wrong again?" Tianqi asked doubtfully.

Ye Xianggao smiled bitterly, Zhu Youxiao's father had no chance of becoming the prince, because he couldn't defeat Emperor Shenzong. Tianqi was still young at this time, and the chance of his grandson taking over the throne was even slimmer, so from the beginning

In the end, Zhu Youxiao never received a systematic imperial education, and he was not even given a good private school. He and his younger brother actually learned how to read and write from the literate eunuchs who served him in the palace.

.While Tianqi is playful, he is not as good as his younger brother in studies.

Emperor's mental skills are a kind of knowledge, which is completely opposite to the knowledge on the market. After Tianqi came to power, he opened the sutra banquet and started to be taught by several masters, but it was actually too late. So at this time, Ye Xianggao
Chapter completed!
