Chapter 216: Cut the weeds and roots

"Send troops... now they can't get their trust..." Someone suggested, "The court must take action. As the saying goes, killing a chicken to warn monkeys. We can use the least strength to stop further unrest..."

"Two years ago, we still had a way to make Du Zhangman surrender... Now the arrow is on the string and has to be fired..."

"Who made you do this again? Angry the sir." The emperor on the dragon throne was furious...

"The man named Yelang is arrogant... he refuses to surrender... and is difficult to control. He often has disputes with us Han people..." The Censor Wang Hao is a war-oriented faction. He stopped the man from surrendering... As a result, the man suffered serious losses...

Zhu Jianshen was a little dazed. This was a dilemma. Now so many ministers said they wanted to attack the sects in Sichuan. The small fight could no longer be stopped. In the first year of Chenghua, he had no energy to take care of this matter, but in fact he couldn't control it. At that time, the government was in the hands of Li Xian and others, and now he had to take responsibility for it... It was really difficult to make a decision by himself... Pressing the gourd and floating up. This was called the young Zhu Jianshen's brain was hurt. There were already so many eunuchs from Guangxi in this palace. To be honest, it was useless to catch them... The customs of the sects and the Han people were much different, that's it.

The custom of knocking teeth is also out of place... But when he thought of Ji Yuanzhi... his heart trembled... She told herself that those officials deceived their superiors and subordinates, and the people who had to rebel. Whether they were Yao people, Miao people or Wu people, who would have a peaceful life, who would be willing to use their lives to fight against the court? It would be the court's injustice and bullying the people... He looked at the civil officials and generals in front of him. What they thought was how to suppress these rebellious people, and no one would pursue the cause... He used the troublemakers to explain it, and used the inability to educate as an excuse.

"The people of the Jade are not as good as the Yao people. The ancestors of the Jade people were also from the Central Plains. They were the Chiyou clan. They were defeated by Huangdi and then moved to Guangxi. However, the Jade people have been entrenched in the Yunnan-Guizhou area in Sichuan, forming a country. They once established a country in the Xuzhou (Yibin) area. They have not been educated for a long time and belong to the barbarians..." The old scholar talked with relish... Zhu Jianshen felt that what they said had nothing to do with fighting or not...

"Emperor... Please make a decision early... The attack on Du Zhangman was your decision..." Shang Lu said, "I heard that it was Huang Mingshan and others from the Imperial College insisted... Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites opposed him, he..."

"I just ascended the throne, and did not listen to the advice of Zhou Hongmo, the Minister of Rites. He is from Xuzhou... I understand the people's sentiments of Xuzhou... But now the Duzhan Barbarians are already enemies of the court... How can they be comforted and cannot trust them, so let them destroy the laws and regulations and form a country on their own?" Zhu Jianshen did not stutter and said so much in one breath, but his heart was still contradictory...

"Emperor... what we mean is to make a quick decision and not give the selves a chance to make a comeback..." The pro-war faction is still the same. They cannot give the selves a chance to turn things around. If they are pursued in the future, the responsibility will naturally fall on the heads of them. The emperor will not admit his mistakes by himself... Zhu Jianshen stares at Shang Lu... Shang Lu suddenly puts down his burden: "Your Majesty, whether to fight or not is not the old minister... I hope Your Majesty will weigh the pros and cons. If the one who takes the light is just an arrow on the string, he has to fire..."

I have to post... The situation is on the other side... Zhu Jianshen looked at these people talking, either by peace or by war, and argued endlessly. Time passed, but there was no progress. He sighed: "It's getting late, let's break up... I'll think about it clearly, and I'll discuss it tomorrow..."

When he got off the court, he came to Zhen'er's Zhaode Palace, and the little eunuch Wang Zhi was waiting at the door.

"Wang Zhi, where is your master?" Zhu Jianshen said, "I'm going to court, I'll come to find her."

"The Empress is visiting..." Wang Zhi said, "She has gone to the Empress's side... Huai'en has also gone..."

"Why are you with him again..." Zhu Jianshen said, "He...he is also too..."

"The Empress is going to send a son to the Empress, Guanyin. She hopes that the Empress will give birth to a legitimate son soon..." Wang Zhi said.

"How do you know so clearly?" Zhu Jianshen asked.

"Our Empress begged several... and they all gave it to the empresses of each palace, but the queen's honor..."

"Queen..." Zhu Jianshen said, "That's not her person yet... Does she want the women in the harem to be favored by her, but she should treat me as a pig man..."

"Your Majesty, don't think so... If you can't have a son as soon as possible, those two empress dowagers will definitely blame my empress, thinking that she is jealous... it hurts the emperor's blood..." Xiao Wang looked not very big, but he was clever...

"Have you learned something here?" Zhu Jianshen asked curiously, "Are you a Yao person?"

"The youngest is a Yao person, but the younger parents are gone... The Empress treats me like a relative... The younger ones learn a lot... It's because the Empress takes care of the younger one, so the younger ones follow a few good masters... and learns literature and martial arts, and usually serves the Empress..."

"It's interesting..." Zhu Jianshen said, "Tell me... Is this place better or your home before?"

The straight eyes rolled... and said, "My family is poor... When people think it's very comfortable to wear warm clothes and eat in the palace, but if they can be with their family, they will be happy..."

Zhu Jianshen said, "Have you ever hated the imperial army? They captured you..."

"The young man once hated him, but he was helpless... Now that he has read a few books, he knows this... this... the villagers are ignorant..." Wang Zhi said, looking forward, and he dared not look at the person in front of him. He is the emperor. If something is wrong, he can kill himself at any time.

Things always end... Zhu Jianshen wants to change... but if it can't be changed, then let it end quickly...

End... Thinking of this, he had an idea... He turned around and went back...

"The imperial edict has been issued... This time, the important officials must be used to use heavy troops... The imperial edict was issued by King Li Jin of Xiangcheng as the general of the conquering Yi and leading a large army into Xuzhou." The imperial edict was issued very suddenly. Shang Lu thought that the emperor would change his mind. Zhou Hongmo, the Minister of Rites, said that the lord did not want to be an enemy of the court, and most of the people who defected to their village were miserable. Because they lacked food and clothing, had no land, they could not survive, so they arrived at the lord's territory... It was not impossible to change the land and return to the current, but those officials had not given these leaders who were in charge of the barbarians a clear answer...

"Blood flows into a river... It's another battle..." Zhou Hongmo shook his head and left... He could no longer talk about the civil and military officials in the court... Who would object to the emperor's imperial edict?

Willfulness... Zhen'er would not interfere in this matter specifically. That's a major matter in the court... The emperor is no longer a child, so no female relatives in the palace were involved. Besides, the Queen Mother Zhou was dissatisfied with her long ago...
