Cui Ying and Xin Min had a life-or-death feud. When Xin Min came to power, he was imprisoned and tortured for having an internal feud and alienating superiors. Cui Ying was forced to suffer the torture but was forced to admit it.
Li Delin, the Xinmin party leader who was in charge of the interrogation, planned to execute her. Fortunately, Zheng Sidao, who was guarding Hepu against Japanese pirates at the time, firmly opposed Cui Ying's execution, so he only reduced her rank to the third rank and above, confiscated her land and slaves, and exiled her to Yingde County...
With such a great hatred, how could the Cui family endure the fact that the son of Xin Min was sitting on the throne? The country was a hatred of the family, so under Yao Guangxiao's persuasion, he surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, which brought the Ming Dynasty one step closer to controlling the Goryeo family.
Zhu Di shook his head and said: "No need. I think Li Shuai must have meant this too. There should be military orders coming later."
"yes."
Zhu Di glanced at the generals below. There were not many of them who could really be used. The children of the aristocratic families were shy and timid. They were not the type to go to the battlefield. But there was nothing he could do. If he did not accept them, he would really be alone in Goryeo.
What's more, no matter how many children of aristocratic families there are, the family background behind them is real. Whether on the battlefield or in the Goryeo court, they can greatly benefit him.
As King Shen Tuotuobuhua, who was arranged by the Northern Yuan Dynasty, was killed in Liaodong, the situation in Goryeo began to change frequently, especially after Zhu Di also arrived.
From the original desire to sway between Mongolia and the Ming Dynasty to gain benefits, it has become a matter of whether the vested interests can be maintained and whether the family wealth can continue to be extended under the control of the Ming Dynasty.
This also caused a split in the noble families of Goryeo. Li Renren and others believed that they should support their own people. Since Li Chenggui has caught the eye of the Ming Dynasty Crown Prince, why not follow the trend? At least their interests are the same, that is Try to maintain the original order as much as possible.
The Xin Min party members controlled by Jiang Side, that is, the emerging scholar-bureaucrats, naturally have different interests from the old nobles. They also have conflicts with this decadent dynasty and want to break it and then establish it.
They hoped that the old order would be broken, so they flocked to His Highness King Qi who came from the Ming Dynasty, expecting that a new order with them as the mainstay could be established.
They also include some nobles in the middle and lower reaches. The majority of the interests of the noble families are not with them, and the family is gradually declining. Since they have nothing, they dare to take advantage of it.
It is extremely rare that someone like the Cui family is willing to fall to Zhu Di. In addition to being dissatisfied with Xin Min, the Cui family is also a political enemy of Li Renren. One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. Li Renren has the support of most noble families. But Cui Ying was unwilling to succumb to him.
Over the past year, Li Renren's personality has changed drastically, or he has been forced to change his personality drastically. The strong support from so many aristocratic families represents a strong demand. If there is no return, he will inevitably be abandoned.
When you become the leader of a force, the benefits are distributed by you, and all the credit is given to you. In the same way, you also need to bear the blame. This is the price of power.
After Li Renren came to power, he became corrupt, formed cliques for personal gain, used power for personal gain, annexed land, seized slaves, and appointed officials based on the degree of bribery, resulting in a serious problem of redundant officials.
There are farm slaves all over the country and abroad, and all the generals and ministers are out of their homes, vying for service, seizing people's fields and people, and showing no concern for state affairs. People at that time said they were promoting slaves.
All these things made Cui Ying dislike and disgust, and made him feel that if he continued to hang out with them, it would be difficult to end well, so he chose the side of King Qi of the Ming Dynasty.
In fact, if we really talk about it, choosing King Qi is really not a good idea. After all, who knows what the situation is in the Ming Dynasty and whether the crown prince will really support King Qi to take over Goryeo.
Once there is a slight change, all the investment will be in vain, and it will not be as good as Li Chenggui and Li Ren. If the Ming Dynasty wants to govern Goryeo, it cannot do without the local people.
………………
Yao Guangxiao was playing chess with the black stones, and the old man opposite him looked attentively. Four pretty girls were standing around him, and green smoke was rising from the exquisite and elegant incense burner.
The old man relaxed a little after knocking, took a sip from the teacup beside him, and said with a smile: "The Jurchens came and said they were willing to share Liaodong with me, Goryeo. Haha, a group of savages who drink raw hair and drink blood actually know how to join forces.
.”
Yao Guangxiao didn't respond. He made his moves very quickly, as if he didn't need to think, making the opponent shake his head and smile bitterly. Knowing that the overall situation was decided, he started to move casually. To eat him, it would take some tricks.
Yao Guangxiao raised his head slightly: "That's good, that's good."
Qing Qianxing said helplessly: "Master, I treat you sincerely, why should I refuse you thousands of miles away?"
"The young monk is not a Buddha. How can he respond to people's wishes? If there is something wrong with the left servant, it is better to go find Chiang Kai-shek or Li Xiang."
"It's easy to add icing on the cake, but it's difficult to provide help when the time is right. I'm greedy."
"Greetings breed worries, and greed breeds fear. If there is no greed, why worry or fear? Be aware that many desires are suffering, and fatigue in life and death all arise from greed. Only by wanting less and doing less can you feel at ease."
Kyung Cheon-heung was born into a Yangban family originally from Cheongju. He served as military judge, judge of privy affairs, and ministerial affairs minister, and other important positions. He opposed the Qi family, a pro-won power, and participated in the rebellion to destroy the Qi family. He was originally a member of the Goryeo royal party.
important member.
After Xin Yu came to power, he was relieved of his actual power and granted the title of Lord of the Yuan Prefecture of Qing Dynasty. In fact, he was sidelined. Later, he tried to conspire to overthrow Xin Yu, but was found out, punished and confiscated as an official slave.
The official slave's life was short-lived, but it was Jiang Side who took action to save his life. When Xin Meng came back after being killed, he should have been in the same party with Li Renren and others. However, Li Renren originally chose to support King Shen from Mongolia and had a falling out due to political differences.
, now Xianfu is at home.
Qing Qianxing stood up and looked at the monk opposite him coldly. His eyes were triangular and shaped like a sick tiger. Although he had a peaceful expression, it also made people feel uneasy. Such a facial expression was definitely not a kind person, and it was absolutely unacceptable.
Only Buddhism can suppress its root nature.
Yao Guangxiao clasped his hands together and looked up at the opponent slightly, until he couldn't bear it anymore and left angrily, then he lowered his head again and put the chess pieces back into the chess box one by one.
In another courtyard, Jiang Side was holding a beautiful and plump woman in his arms and teasing her. She was the legitimate daughter of the Anshan Jin family and the daughter-in-law of the Poping Zhao family. She was a serious Goryeo noblewoman, but she was just his occasional lover.
Just a plaything.
A person dressed as a housekeeper came in. Jiang Side smiled and patted the woman's round butt, telling her to go to bed and wait. The woman stood up holding his shoulders, gave the housekeeper a charming look, and then swayed away.
Got in.
Jiang Side took out his handkerchief and wiped his fingers: "Is Qing Qianxing gone?"
"We have already left the house. It seems that we broke up on bad terms."
"That's good. Let's work together to help each other. I don't want to get my colleagues' blood on my hands."
The butler sat directly opposite Jiang Side, picked up the teapot and took a sip directly, then wiped his mouth. He was clearly the former commander of the People's Liberation Army, Jiang Zhen.
"Is this monk really so capable?"
"Haha, what do you think of me?"
"Mr. Jiang is an unparalleled scholar in this country. Without you, our brothers would not be able to work so smoothly in this foreign country."
Jiang Side threw the handkerchief aside and said with a smile: "I don't dare to take it seriously. I am not afraid of Commander Jiang making fun of me. Most of my abilities are used on these women."
Jiang Wei's expression did not change: "There have been beauty traps since ancient times, and this migrant woman can also influence the changes in the situation. When I work in the Imperial Guard's Mansion, I often look for opportunities from this. As long as things can be done, there is nothing wrong with any means.
"
After talking for a while, Jiang Wei withdrew. The arrangements for the opening of the capital went smoothly and were generally completed. He was now going to meet His Highness the King of Qi. In the final analysis, it still depends on who has enough military power at the critical moment.
Jiang Side did not rush in, but got up and walked to the study to write a letter to His Royal Highness. The situation in Goryeo was unpredictable. There were too many people wanting to place bets and multiple bets. The banker was a bit short.
Either untie Yao Guangxiao, or send someone with sufficient status from the Ming Dynasty. He doesn't care who of these people can win the bet, the banker will not lose.
What Jiang Side said just now is a bit modest, but it is not completely modest. He still deserves at least four percent of the credit for his hard work on the errands he did in Korea.
Playing with women is not a simple matter. Who is playing with and how to play has to have an explanation. It has to make everyone happy. Otherwise, if you mess around, break the rules and lose your dignity, and make many people dissatisfied, His Highness the Prince will want to do it.
killed him.
But these are only three or four points of the credit. The rest must be attributed to the monk. His wisdom is far-reaching and terrifying. No wonder His Highness wants to rein in the reins.
