Chapter 156 What kind of person do you think he is
Zhu Youjian looked at this scene and suddenly felt confused. These civil officials were still sharp-tongued, and he was deeply disturbed by it. Since he escaped from Fuzhou, Zhu Youjian's heart has painted a beautiful future. The civil and military team got along, and under his command, he fought in the Central Plains. Then today, there was a familiar quarrel first, pulling him back from his dream to reality.
Later, Hou Xuanyan's personal guard drew his sword and killed people, which was indeed beyond Zhu Youjian's expectations. Since ancient times, the court struggles have been intrigues. All kinds of insults are hidden in verbal battles, hurting people and tainting people.
Hou Xuanyan set a precedent, changing the century-old pattern of the Ming Dynasty's struggle. No king would like such a creative move. But he could not really deal with Hou Xuanyan. The shocking voices outside were on the surface, but in fact they were a declaration of force.
Zhu Youjian stared at Hou Xuanyan with his eyes, and the latter raised his head and looked straight at the emperor's scrutiny.
Hou Xuanyan was open-minded and did not dodge at all. In his heart, Fighting Qing was the first priority, not helping Ming. Everything was about to make way for Fighting Qing, including his own life. And these pedantic civil servants who were devoted to internal fighting and had all the skills and points to the mouth cannon option were the big stumbling blocks for Fighting Qing.
Zhu Youjian sighed and said, "Su Guansheng despised my prince, spoke disrespectful words, and now insulted the important officials. This hero named Hu was resentful and killed him by chance. Although he was guilty, the law was nothing more than human favors. After deducting three years' salary, he should be given a lighter reward."
Hou Xuanyan then stood up and bowed respectfully to leave. The civil servants in the hall were silent.
Under the command of Wang Xiangnian, the little eunuch who escaped from Fuzhou dealt with the body of Su Guansheng who could not bear to look at him.
Huang Daozhou died and Su Guansheng died. The civil servants who remained in the hall were led by Lu Zhenfei. Zhu Youjian waved his hand gently and signaled that they all retreat, and then asked Wang Xiangnian to leave Lu Zhenfei.
Lu Zhenfei had a complicated expression. He had a good first impression of Hou Xuanyan. This young junior was well-educated and well-educated scholar. He was originally a scholar of Shilin from Songjiang Prefecture. He and his father Hou Dongzeng were old friends. His whole family died for the country and were in the same power as the Qing Dynasty. After all, in addition to Li Chengdong, the Qing soldiers who washed away Jiading blood, there were also Taicang Qing soldiers. Later, Lu Zhenfei found that he could not see through this junior at all.
Lu Zhenfei, full of worries, came to the inner courtyard of the palace. Zhu Youjian was drinking tea. After seeing Lu Zhenfei, he put down his tea cup and said, "Come on, I'll give you a seat to Lu Aiqing."
After Lu Zhen flew, he stood up and thanked him and sat on a chair.
Zhu Youjian calmed down and said, "He did not have a big mess because of today's things. The years of ups and downs have destroyed his body and tempered his will. He pondered for a moment and said, "What do you think about today's things?"
After thinking for a while, Lu Zhenfei said, "Although Su Guansheng is my good friend, he has done too much. Hou Xuanyan holds heavy troops and wins repeatedly and defeats Jiannu's arrogant heart. It is really the general who resists the Qing army and plans to fight the Northern Expedition. However, Hou Xuanyan indulges his subordinates, kills people in front of the palace, and shows off his power, which is even more disheartening. According to my opinion, Your Majesty is dealing with it properly, and he can only do this at the moment."
Zhu Youjian was a little disappointed. Lu Zhenfei's words seemed fair, but in fact there was no content at all. These ministers were able to achieve this position, and they were well aware of the way of being an official. They were reluctant to express their attitudes easily. Although Zhu Youjian was short of fashion as an emperor, he had already deeply seen the power of these people. He went further and asked directly: "What is the ambition for Hou Xuan playing this person?"
Lu Zhenfei keenly sensed the dissatisfaction in the emperor's tone, so he had to put it away and answered seriously: "Whenever Hou Xuanyan was approaching the Qing army, he was never afraid of fighting, and he was always in front of the formation, which was enough to show his desire to serve the country. In Fuzhou, Hou Xuanyan went to the danger alone, just to summon His Majesty with a piece of paper, which showed his loyalty to the emperor." When Zhu Youjian heard this, he remembered the tragic scene in the palace and could not help but nod.
Lu Zhenfei continued: "It's a pity that he is still young and has insufficient experience, so he is inevitably a little arrogant. Killing He Tengjiao first and then killing Huang Daozhou all show that this son is immature. If His Majesty wants to fight the north, he must not use this person, but how to use it still needs to be discussed in the long run."
Zhu Youjian nodded with satisfaction. Lu Zhenfei was not like those civil servants. He began to criticize Hou Xuanyan as soon as he mentioned it. This was also the reason why he found Lu Zhenfei to discuss it.
Lu Zhengfei could see the emperor's eyebrows frowned, and knew that he still had doubts. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Chuzhou Prefecture is a small city after all. The soldiers under Hou Xuanyan's command seemed to be powerful. When we arrive at Jinling, it was the old imperial capital, and the people were deeply educated, and the gentry was devoted to the Ming Dynasty, and they would definitely support Your Majesty with all their hearts."
Zhu Youjian nodded frequently, leaving Lu Zhenfei behind, and after lunch. The king and his ministers had a happy conversation, and the discussion was nothing more than the details of how to revive the court and recruit talents when they arrived in Jinling. A minister was killed in front of the palace and turned over. The king and his ministers did not notice it at all. They had gradually accepted Hou Xuanyan's style of conduct. The world was in chaos, and the rules that had lasted for a hundred years were gradually broken, which also indicated that an era full of iron and blood had arrived.
At the same time, Hou Xuanyan also enjoyed a rare warmth and comfort. He had decided that when he arrived in Jinling, he would go to the front line of Jingxiang. Jingxiang is now like a crater that would erupt at any time. The two sides had 500,000 soldiers, and the scale had long exceeded that of Sarhu, which was rising by Jiannu. The war was about to begin, and as long as the decisive battle began, the strength and weakness were determined. So during the time he accompanied north to Jinling, he planned to accompany Huang Ying'er.
After leaving the palace, Hou Xuanyan personally arranged to take money from his treasury and rewarded Hu Bawan. He was deducted three years of salary, and Hou Xuanyan gave him thirty years, and then returned to his just-greedy house.
When he pushed the door open, Huang Yinger, who had just broken the melon, had already prepared a table of exquisite side dishes and was waiting for herself obediently.
After all, Huang Ying'er is a martial arts practitioner, and she is already in her jasper age, so she is not a weak woman who cannot bear the punishment.
Seeing Hou Xuanyan come in, Huang Ying'er smiled cleverly, looking like a happy little wife. Hou Xuanyan felt relieved. She was going to bandage the wound on her, but who knew that she was lustful and added another wound in the middle, and felt a little sad. Seeing that Huang Ying'er was fine, she felt relieved.
Although the seasonal vegetables prepared in a few exquisite porcelain plates tasted average, Hou Xuanyan's army was used to living, so he naturally did not bother to eat and never picked food. While eating, he praised Huang Ying'er, which made the little girl smile. Miao'er and Shuang'er were both gentle and urging, and a pair of twin maids were eager to drink, and soon he was drunk. Hou Xuanyan looked at Huang Ying'er's charming and pretty cheeks, and he liked them more and more. He sat up straight and patted his thighs. Huang Ying'er's face turned red and sat obediently in his arms. The two of them were sweet in front of the maid of the room, and soon Luo Shang was half-exposed and panted.
Miao'er and Shuang'er are both maids who are in the same house. They have been taught by the elderly nanny in the house. When their faces turn red, they look at each other and start to smoke incense and shop. They are so flustered when they do these things, but they are just natural in their hearts. Huang Ying'er is so shy that she will not feel embarrassed to be intimate with her lover in front of her maid who is like her sisters.
