Chapter 510: Going to war (three updates and 10,000 monthly votes please!)
"My lord, oh my lord, you are back!"
As soon as Xia Xun entered the door of the study, Huang Zhen, who was sitting neatly on the chair, jumped up and rushed to him with his buttocks bumping.【】
The steps shouldn't be too big, but they can't be too small either. In this limited space, you must have enough movement to let your boss know that you are coming at a trot, but you can't stand still. The look on your face
The smile should be kind and humble, and humble should be joyful. It clearly expresses flattery, but it should not be too obvious.
Xia Xun only took one glance and felt that Huang Zhen, an old guy, had made great progress recently. At least his flattering skills were much better than before, although he was not yet perfect.
"Xiaoguan has been looking forward to the Duke's return to the court. Maybe he has a tacit understanding. He guessed that the Duke will be back soon, so he took the liberty to visit the palace and ask. Hey, he is back as expected."
Huang Zhen ran forward, took Xia Xun's arm, and helped him in like an old man. This flattery made Xia Xun feel uncomfortable all over. He sat on the chair and smiled at Huang Zhen:
"Okay, okay, my Lord Huang, please sit down too. Why are you so anxious to find me?"
Huang Zhen has indeed been quite proud of himself recently. He put his future on Xia Xun's body, which was regarded as a success, so he successfully got into the eyes of Wu Youdao and his group. The prime minister is not allowed to be too close to Yan Guan.
It is not only the rule in officialdom since ancient times, but also the fear of the king. Therefore, Xie Jin and other great scholars, ministers, and ministers are not willing to get too close to the officials. Of course, there is also Chen Ying who treats her.
The reason is that the territory is too strict.
Therefore, Wu Youdao and his group have been fighting alone. After Chen Ying took the lead to break the rules and got very close to Qiu Fu, Wu Youdao and others also wanted to climb a big tree, and Huang Zhen, a lone ranger, had been assisting the Duke.
Once the fact that Huang was waving flags and shouting and frequently entering and leaving the Duke Fu's house came into their eyes, they naturally came to the conclusion that Huang was really a person of Duke Fu.
Wu Youdao came to visit Xia Xun several times, so he came up with the idea of Huang Zhen. Huang Zhen was no longer ostracized among his colleagues, and a group of people showed full respect for him. Now the old guy is really
There was a feeling of rejuvenation, and even Daoer felt that his whole body was full of strength, and he relied on Xia Xun for everything, so it was inevitable that he would get carried away when he saw Xia Xun.
Huang Zhen helped Xia Xun sit down, and he sat halfway down on the chair below. He smiled and said: "The Duke is the backbone of Xiaguan. The Duke is not in the capital, and Xiaguan wants to do something.
But I'm not sure yet. Now that I've met the Duke and haven't asked for advice yet, I feel that I feel particularly at ease..."
Xia Xun couldn't bear his flattery anymore, so he laughed quickly and said: "Stop it, stop it, hehe, Mr. Huang, just tell me what's going on. If my father-in-law can help you make up his mind,
Naturally, I will express my opinions."
"Yes Yes!"
Huang Zhen lifted the skirt of his robe, leaned forward slightly, and said with a bit of showoff: "My lord, you are not in Beijing these days, do you know the latest progress of the Zhejiang Navy's frame-up?"
Xia Xun picked up the tea cup, gently wiped the tea leaves on the water, and said noncommittally: "Well, I've heard about it, what?"
Huang Zhen sat up straight and said with righteous indignation: "My lord, the Navy of Eastern Zhejiang is so crazy! In order to shirk the blame, they framed their colleagues. Not only that, they also dragged you into the water, causing you to eat a lot." Bitterness. Now, once the truth of the case is revealed, both Luo Yu and Ji He will be killed immediately. What kind of cannibalism, hum, how is it possible? This is clearly a deliberate plan, using Luo Yu as a scapegoat! "
"oh?"
Xia Xun raised his eyelids, glanced at him, and asked, "So, what are Mr. Huang's plans?"
Huang Zhen couldn't help but lean forward again, and said mysteriously: "My lord, many officials now agree that Luo Yu is the mastermind of the frame-up case, and advocate that the case be closed. The imperial bachelor and several ministers, the minister Shan Ligu, , it is difficult to deal with it. A group of my colleagues in the Metropolitan Procuratorate plan to write to the court together, requesting the emperor to investigate the case strictly. No matter who is involved behind the scenes, they will investigate to the end and never let go. In order to calm the anger of the soldiers and civilians of Shuangyu, and use snow to assist them. We have contacted more than 30 envoys regarding the injustice of the Duke, but we don’t know what the Duke’s will is. As long as you nod, our memorial can be handed over to the court tomorrow morning!"
Xia Xun glanced at Huang Zhen in surprise: "When did this guy become qualified to form a clique?"
After thinking about it carefully, Xia Xun realized that Huang Zhen had never been able to join any factions. Although there were flaws in his character, another important reason was that he had no clear political demands of his own, just like his previous self. Likewise, if it is harmless to everyone, it is useless to everyone. When you stand clearly on the side of a certain political faction, there will be people like Huang Zhen who will stand under your banner.
And this power structure is like a pyramid. People who defect to his sect can naturally summon people at a lower level to get closer to him and make friends with the same political purpose. Thinking of Wu Youdao's four visits to his sect, Xia Xun Knowing that Huang Zhen's so-called contact with more than 30 imperial envoys may be a smear in his own face. The actual situation should be that Wu Youdao and more than 30 imperial envoys from his faction wanted to defect to his sect, and Huang Zhen for a bridge.
Xia Xun smiled and said, "Oh, those like-minded friends of yours are from Wu Youdao's group?"
Huang Zhen's old face turned slightly red and said: "Yes, Mr. Wu and a group of envoys are deeply aggrieved by the injustice suffered by the Duke. They have always admired the Duke, but now that there are traitors hiding evil in the court, they are all willing to do so." Together with the Duke, we will punish the evildoers and clear up the temples!"
Xia Xun ignored these high-sounding words. He pondered for a moment, put down his teacup, stared at Huang Zhen, and asked, "I'm going to ask you a few questions. Answer me seriously."
Huang Zhen quickly raised his hands and said: "Please inquire, Lord!"
Xia Xun asked: "Sir Huang, what do you think is the power and influence of the ministers compared to the great scholars and ministers of various ministries in urging the imperial court to continue investigating the suspected case of framed colleagues by the Eastern Zhejiang Navy? Mr. Huang?" "
"this……"
Huang Zhen looked a little embarrassed and hesitated to answer.
Xia Xun added: "Sir Huang, you also know that the emperor has a desire to be a prince, and the imperial military has its support for this. The case of the Zhejiang Navy has been over and over again, and it has changed repeatedly. It may not be the result of the secret competition between the two factions. Now that the governor of Luo Yu Province and the commander of Ji He's army have both died on the island, if we continue to investigate, who will be found? Do you think the emperor will allow hundreds of officials to use this matter to pursue their own selfish desires, criticize each other, and cause trouble? Is there a foul atmosphere in the court?"
"this……"
Huang Zhen twirled his beard and blinked at Xia Xun, somewhat unsure of his thoughts.
Xia Xun smiled and said: "Of course, if we can continue to investigate, I mean, if we can find out a bigger bug in the country, then even if it is not in line with the emperor's wishes, we should continue to pursue it. But, do you think that you are already in Luo Yu?"
If the emperor wants to settle the matter, what evidence can we get that would be enough for us to bring down an official with a higher rank than Luo Yu?"
"Yes, what the Duke said is that the subordinate is a little reckless."
Huang Zhen was full of enthusiasm, but Xia Xun slapped him with cold water, which made him feel a little discouraged.
Xia Xun thought to himself: "Wu Youdao said this, and this is a petition to me. He cannot refuse, and it chills their hearts. Huang Zhen is already tied to his own tree, and it is not easy for him to take the initiative.
Don’t let your enthusiasm cool down when you do something!”
Thinking of this, Xia Xun changed his mind and said: "However, you came at the right time. I have a few big things going on, and I would like to ask you, Yushi Huang, Yushi Wu and other gentlemen, for help."
Huang Zhen perked up and said quickly: "My lord, please speak. I am listening attentively."
Xia Xun said: "For this first matter, please ask a few imperial envoys to come forward and impeach Li Yifeng of the Yu family navy, accusing him of slacking off in the navy, not performing well, and not worthy of the duty of suppressing Japanese pirates."
Huang Zhen was slightly surprised when he heard this.
Xia Xun added: "Let a few more imperial envoys impeach General Chizhong of Fuzhou. The meaning is roughly the same. You can think of the wording. Haha, you have a wonderful pen, so I don't need to explain it in detail."
Huang Zhen said in astonishment: "My lord, these... these two groups of people were not recommended by the lord to the emperor personally. Why do you want to impeach them again?"
Xia Xun smiled and said: "I tell you to do it, just do it. It doesn't matter how violent the impeachment is, the prince has his own plan."
Huang Zhenwei agreed solemnly, and Xia Xun added: "Your Highnesses are fighting for the right to be the heir, and the mystery case of the Eastern Zhejiang Navy has become a battlefield. The fight is inextricable, so you adults should stop getting involved in it. The remaining
The people below all only do one thing, write a letter to the imperial court, and cancel the tribute trade with Japan on the grounds that the Japanese pirates are attacking our sea areas and harassing the people, or perhaps one tribute every ten years or one tribute every twenty years as a response.
As a punishment for the country’s failure to suppress bandits, the bigger the momentum, the better!”
When Xia Xun said this, he laughed and said: "Chen Ying and his group were very involved in the Zhejiang Navy case. At this time, you can stand up and pay attention to national affairs. You have such an understanding of the general situation and the major situation. Your Majesty."
You will definitely be happy.”
Huang Zhen had already vaguely understood Xia Xun's intention, and quickly took Xia Xun's instructions to heart. The two of them sat across from each other and chatted for a while. Huang Zhen happily left and returned to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to make arrangements.
Xia Xun drank the cup of tea in one gulp and said, "Come out!"
Behind the bookshelf is a screen. There is a small space next door behind the screen. There is a separate Arhat bed. It was originally a place for Xia Xun to take a nap. At this time, a person walked out from behind. It was Zuo Dan. Zuo Dan gave Xia Xun a nap.
He bowed and said doubtfully: "My lord, if you increase the impeachment of dozens of imperial envoys, even if it cannot damage the enemy's foundation, it can still make them scramble. Why should we abandon it?"
Xia Xun smiled and said: "Aren't the eldest prince's people doing these things! Good steel must be used on the blade. Could it be that the role of these envoys is just to make His Highness the Second Highness and Qiu Fu even more embarrassed? It's a joke to us.
What? Attacking now will not expand the results, but will make the enemy more united. If we stand still and let them not know what is real, they will cut off their own hands and feet due to their guilty conscience. Isn't this more useful than breaking the enemy's military morale?"
Xia Xun looked serious and said: "Okay, you don't need to worry about this matter. The suppression of Japanese pirates in the East China Sea is the target, and the suppression of Japanese bandits is the foundation. If we want to cure the root cause, the final battle must be on the mainland. My battlefield is not here, but
How about the deployment and arrangements I asked you to make there?"
