Chapter 1087 Royal Study Cining Palace
Chapter 1087 Imperial Study Cining Palace
"I thought Wang Tong was that sincere boy! But I didn't expect that he would become an official for so many years?"
Emperor Wanli said Lei Ran, the eunuchs of the Sili Prison beside him all lowered their heads, and Wang Xijue also bowed his body to greet him, but did not speak.
"Your Majesty is not a sincere boy anymore!"
There is indeed no way to accept this statement. Wang Tong is now the Duke of the State. How can he not be an official? No matter how sincere and simple his personality is, he has been rubbed and beaten by Emperor Wanli for so many years. He has learned some cleverness. He went straight to Songjiang from Liaoning to the time, but he can only know what these words are, but he doesn't know how to do them after saying them.
"Wang Aiqing thinks who can be the handsome guy?"
After hearing this, Wang Xijue stood up respectfully and bowed to answer:
"Your Majesty, this is a national war. Your Majesty should be judged by you. I dare not speak nonsense."
The expression on Emperor Wanli's face seemed to be a little smirk, and he said again:
"Since Mr. Wang is the chief minister and the general leader of the government affairs of the world, there is nothing wrong with saying anything or not. I am also unsure about this matter. Mr. Wang has some opinions and is also a counselor."
Since this emperor has been in the martial arts hall, he has been supported by Wang Tong to defeat political enemies. After being in power in the capital and being dictatorial, he has become more and more powerful and casual in his words and actions. He does not pay attention to any regular rules, but you have to obey.
Wang Xijue coughed dryly, dared not sit down, and replied:
"Your Majesty, the reason why the commander of the army entering the court is difficult to make a choice is because of the danger. I wonder if what I said is right?"
"Dangerous? Of course there are dangers, military affairs are dangerous, victory or defeat is impermanent!"
"What Your Majesty said is one aspect, but the Japanese pirates are fighting in North Korea, so the Ming Dynasty should do its best, at least half or even half of the elite troops in the world will be transferred to Korea. Such troops will be delivered to one person. If this person has something wrong, then the capital and Your Majesty will be in danger. Your Majesty, I wonder if it is the reason I said?"
Emperor Wanli closed his smile on his face, tapped a memorial on the table with his fingers, and said calmly:
"How can there be any wrong thoughts about the civil officials and the military supervisors of the civil servants? Master Wang is too worried!"
Wang Xijue looked up at Emperor Wanli sitting there, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. From Zhang Juzheng to now, from generation to generation, this position has become increasingly difficult to get, but when it comes to this, he can't continue. After all, the authority of the emperor is also the authority of the cabinet. Protecting this side means protecting himself.
"Your Majesty, I am guilty of being punished. Since the Duke of Liao led his troops to fight, as everyone knows today, this civil servants may not be a good thing for the internal officials to supervise the army. If you are strict, you will be restrained by military generals in everything and cannot fight a good battle. If you are not strict, then what is the use of this rule? Moreover, I have been to the army in person over the years and understand the truth. The officers and soldiers in the army all listen to the commander. What can the civil officials and the internal officials go? What is the use of when it is unspeakable?"
Emperor Wanli's voice was a little cold, but there was a smile on his face, and he said there:
"Who do you think should be handsome?"
Wang Xijue became more and more serious as he spoke. From sitting to standing up, when he talked about this, he knelt down solemnly and said solemnly:
"Your Majesty, what I said before is recognized by Your Majesty, so I will say boldly that Wang Tong should be the commander, and he is the most loyal."
Emperor Wanli was silent and did not speak out. One of the people who could consult in the imperial study was Wang Xijue. Zou Yi's position was obviously biased, and Zhao Jinliang was even more so. Emperor Wanli turned his head and asked Tian Yi and said:
"Tian Yi, who do you think is suitable?"
"Long live, the elders of the Pavilion are so cautious about this matter. How dare I speak nonsense? However, I feel that the Duke of Liao is now the most important minister and there is no reward. General Li is still diligent in the side of the General Bing. Moreover, the Duke of Liao trained the Imperial Guard and the Imperial Guard and the General Manager were all as close as brothers. This..."
Emperor Wanli looked at him coldly, and Tian Yi immediately lowered his head. Emperor Wanli glanced over Zou Yi's face, but in the end he fell on Zhao Jinliang's side and asked:
"Xiaoliang, what do you think?"
Zhao Jinliang was called "Xiaoliang" in the palace, but only four or five people could call it that way. Some eunuchs in prisons would politely call him "Eunuch Zhao" when they met. They said they were small and were now young people in their early twenties. When they heard Emperor Wanli's question, Zhao Jinliang stepped forward and said aloud:
"Honor, I feel that everything that Mr. Wansui and all the adults said is to be sure to win. Honoror just now also said that military strategists are inconsistent and victory is indefinitely determined. I think what I should think now is who can ensure that there is no mistake in the great victory, not how to deal with it after the great victory."
Hearing this, the imperial study room was very quiet. Tian Yi smiled bitterly. Emperor Wanli was also stunned. He patted his forehead for a while, and laughed out loud and said:
"Xiaoliang said it well, this is from public intention!"
Tian Yi smiled bitterly, and naturally everyone was just doing it. Whether Zhao Jinliang's words were public or selfish, Hotan Yi was a bit overwhelmed.
If it was placed on others and rashly offended the eunuch in charge of the seal of the Sili Supervisor and the head of the inner court, there would probably be a big disaster next, but it would be fine if it was placed on Zhao Jinliang. Zhao Jinliang is the current companion of Emperor Wanli and the manager of the Qianqing Palace. He spent more time with Emperor Wanli than Tian Yi and Zou Yi every day.
There is a private analysis in the palace, saying that the palace is now divided into three forces, Tian Yi is on one side, Zou Yi is on one side, and Zhao Jinliang is on one side, but he is on the other side, even though he is young and has little experience.
His words did come to the point. What he needs to do now is not rewards or worry about the balance of power, but victory or defeat. Everything must be said after victory, otherwise nothing will be nothing and everything will be nothing.
Emperor Wanli turned to look at Wang Xijue and said with a smile:
"Old Master Wang continued to say, don't worry about what Xiaoliang said for now."
"Yes, Your Majesty, Eunuch Zhao is also very opinionated. Since all the words have come to this point, I will let go. If Li Rusong is the general, there is no need to say anything. After winning, how will Your Majesty treat the Li family? In recent years, the Li family in Liao Town has been split up and Liao Town has been established as a province. This is a blessing for the country and the country. If Li Rusong wins, his sons and nephews will definitely gain power. How can the court reward you, I am afraid that the Li family will be restored in Liao Town. If it is not in Liao Town, in Xuanfu and Ji Town, there will be a situation in Liao Town a few years ago. Would Your Majesty be willing to see it?"
"I'm not that confused, either?"
"Your Majesty is naturally not so holy, but he holds a large army in Liao Town, and the Japanese pirate army is still so far away. He is just next to you in Liao Town. Will Your Majesty agree or not at that time?"
Wang Xijue's words still have nothing to do with victory or defeat. They all talk about the situation after victory. Emperor Wanli did not correct his mistake, and the two continued to answer questions like this.
"You just want Wang Tong to be the boss?"
Emperor Wanli was silent for a while before asking this. Wang Xijue kowtowed on the ground, stood up and said solemnly:
"Your Majesty, Wang Tong is known to be a great military achievements in the world. If you mobilize elite troops from various towns into the court, you must also use the various regiments of the Tiger Power Army. Who is more suitable to command?"
Emperor Wanli was silent again. When he spoke again, his voice was much smaller and he said in a deep voice:
"How did you know that what you said about Li Rusong's just now will not come true on Wang Tong?"
Wang Xijue's expression became solemn, but he sighed in his heart, "The ruthlessness is the most imperial family" and said in a solemn voice:
"Your Majesty, if you say this, I risk my life and say that if I really want to do that, the Eastern Expedition to Jianzhou is the best time for Wang Tong. Wang Tong did not do it, and he was even unwilling to make things difficult for the court, so he went south quietly. With such actions that are considering the overall situation, I think that Wang Tong is the most loyal and can be relieved."
Talking about a thousand words and saying nothing is worse than examples. Wang Tong quietly went to Songjiang to live in seclusion after the victory of Jianzhou in the Eastern Expedition. On the surface, he acted recklessly and did not give face to the court, but in fact he made everyone in the world feel relieved. Only Wang Tong did such an act, but others did not see it.
Having said that, Li Rusong has never done this before, it doesn’t mean that he doesn’t do this when he encounters such a thing, but who dares to gamble about such an important matter?
Emperor Wanli finally nodded slowly, but the opening of his mouth was a problem, and it seemed to have pulled the topic:
"What Tian Yi said just now is also a critical reason. I cannot lose Wang Tong. If he really wants him to make great achievements that he has made invincible, he is now the Duke of the Kingdom. How should I reward me? People in the world are watching, and Wang Tong is also watching!"
Wang Xijue kowtowed again and said with a strong voice:
"Your Majesty, what if Wang Tongzhen made such a great contribution, what would he be able to grant him a title? Then Your Majesty will keep him in the capital, and as before, let him be the commander of the Jinyiwei."
"Enjoying the King! Absurd! This is really... but..."
Emperor Wanli's first reaction to Wang Xijue's words was to be furious, but then he figured it out and said in contemplation:
"Stay by your side and do the errands of the Jinyiwei, this is the same as before, but it's just that there are differences in names..."
Emperor Wanli pondered there for a long time, but when he opened his mouth, he still didn't make a decision, just said:
"Wang Ge is old and has worked hard today. When you leave the palace, you can arrange a sedan chair to take it away. Let's get here first and let's go!"
Wang Xijue hurriedly thanked him. Zhao Jinliang led Wang Xijue out of the door of the imperial study room. Tian Yi called someone to come over and light the lights. After going out, he came back and asked:
"The Queen asked, Long live the meal tonight?"
Emperor Wanli was absent-mindedly looking through the memorials there, hesitated, and looked up and said:
"I haven't been to Cining Palace for a long time. I'll go to greet my mother tonight and have a meal there!"
