Chapter 780: The bones in the egg
The great martial arts performance slowly ended in the tsunami of mountains and rivers.
But the impact has just begun.
The civil and military officials of the court were arranged to leave one after another and were drinking tea in the arranged room. The group of people looked very calm, but they still couldn't hide the aftermath of shock.
The envoys from various countries went to rest for a while. His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty would hold a banquet later. This was something they had been waiting for for a long time. The great martial arts stimulation gave them was too great, and it was difficult to come back to their senses for a while. What they had originally thought of saying to the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty had to be pushed back, but for a while they could not think of the wording.
But the onlookers were excited and they were allowed to visit Jingdong Camp.
They can walk around in some venues, military camps, canteens, and training grounds.
This made countless people extremely excited. Almost no one was willing to leave and rushed in. Under the arrangement of Jingdong Camp, they went to watch one by one.
They can touch weapons, try muskets, observe cannons at close range, watch soldiers throw grenades, etc.
Everything was an eye-opener for these ordinary people, and they had a more direct understanding of the military strength of the Ming Dynasty. They were deeply shocked and were reluctant to leave for a long time.
Ordinary people are naturally extremely happy, their passion is ignited, and every word you say is full of excitement, boiling over the Jingdong Camp.
But there are always some people who can find out the "humble government" and "evil government" from it and attack it.
In a corner, three or five people gathered together, and everyone looked ugly and looked resentful.
"If there are really barbarians attacking, it depends on people's hearts and benevolence, so how can these external things be compared!"
"Yes, the sages of Donglin have long said, 'Fire tools are not helpful for success or failure'. What's the use of the imperial court investing so much money and food every year!"
"If these were to be saved by the people who were affected, I wonder how many people could be saved. I wasted on these strange tricks and tricks! Humph, those people in the court have long forgotten all the teachings of the saints!"
"I'm more worried. If these firearms fall into the hands of ambitious people, wouldn't the world be in chaos? Who can control them? What should I do?"
"Yes, I am deeply worried about this. I dare say that from now on, my Ming Dynasty will have many disasters and difficulties. After all, it will be ordinary people. Alas, the people will suffer, the people will suffer, the people will suffer, the people will suffer... it will suffer..."
"Oh, the emperor is stupid and all officials are incompetent. My country's life for more than 200 years of Ming Dynasty is probably not long..."
"Everyone understands the principle of prosperity and decline, but a group of people are blind and desperately expend the vitality of Daming. If they continue to do this, they will sooner or later cause our Ming Dynasty to perish the country!"
"Someone is coming, let's go out!"
"snort!"
These people walked out of every corner and quietly merged into the crowd, smiling like they changed their faces, singing with the people around them.
No one can tell. They were still indignant and full of complaints about the court just now.
There were also some officials of all sizes with different expressions, some were happy, some were inspiring, some were frowning, and some were worried.
Among the crowd, there were some missionaries who walked around the Ming army camp, looking at the cannons, the land of flames that had not yet been extinguished, and kept looking at each other.
Their expressions were not as vivid as those of Mingren, but it was still obvious that they frowned from time to time, occasionally gathered together with uneasy expressions, muttering and talking for a few words.
Not long after, several people left in a hurry and carrier pigeons flew to Nanzhili.
The only people from the Western Barbarians who are allowed to "reside temporarily" are Jinyin Village in Nanzhili, which is now the Shenlong Mansion, where nearly a thousand people from the Western Barbarians live. They are sending messages to some people there, and the notes are solemn.
Bi Ziyan, Sun Chengzong and other cabinet ministers, six ministers, as well as Cao Wenzhao, Zhao Shujiao, Fu Changzong, Zhou Yingqiu and others gathered together and drank tea, with a much relaxed expression.
Bi Ziyan put down the teacup, had a gentle smile on his face, and said, "Today is finally over."
Everyone nodded. Although this great martial arts performance seemed simple, it had been planned for too long and its influence was unpredictable. It was able to pass it safely, and everyone felt relieved and decided to make a big deal.
Sun Chuanting looked at the six ministers and said, "I have ordered the court newspaper to be prepared to publish a document. The newspapers of your six ministries must also follow. I attach equal importance to the holy martial arts of the Ming Dynasty, so I should promote it well."
"The equal importance of holy martial arts" has never been mentioned in the past, and even Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di would not say this. The reason why Sun Chuanting said this was also a realistic statement under the current internal and external situation of the Ming Dynasty.
The most important purpose of the martial arts performance is to enhance the morale of the Ming Dynasty, so the cabinet will naturally not let it go easily.
Zhao Han, Zhang Bingwen and others immediately responded and said, "You are here to make people prepare."
Bi Ziyan looked at it without interrupting it. After Sun Chuanting made arrangements, he continued: "The follow-up of the Great Martial Arts will be left to the people below to do. We have to discuss the matters of the 'New Policy' and make sure to come up with a complete plan as soon as possible and submit it to the emperor for the imperial examination."
As Bi Ziyan finished speaking, everyone's expressions were slightly shaking, and the pressure in his heart suddenly became like a mountain.
In the past, the emperor was stumped by a series of things such as weddings and martial arts, and had no time to interfere in the "New Deal" plan discussed by the cabinet, the six ministries, the governors from outside the capital, etc. Now that the matter is over, the emperor's attention will inevitably shift to the "New Deal". By then, with the emperor's ability and skills, their voice will inevitably be greatly compressed, and many things may not be allowed to be decided!
Fu Changzong, Zhou Yingqiu, Li Banghua, Fang Kongqiu, Zhao Pinglan, Chen Qiyu and others looked at each other quietly, and suddenly leaned over and said, "We should return to Beijing as soon as possible!"
None of them has the ability and confidence to "bargain" with Zhu Xu, and it is not possible to tie it together!
Zhu Xu is much more radical than the cabinet. If he leads the enlarged cabinet meeting, all the "New Deal" plans may be something he decides in one sentence, which is too terrible for them!
We must fight quickly!
A group of more than 30 senior officials looked at each other, and spoke in unison!
In a room specially prepared for Zhu Xu and Zhang Yun, the two changed into formal emperor and empress costumes, put on regular clothes, and sat at the table to chat.
Zhu Xu took a sip of tea, looked at Zhang Yun and smiled and said, "Are you scared?" After all, Zhang Yun is just an ordinary girl. She suddenly climbed to the high position and saw such a scene, she should be frightened.
But Zhang Yun was quite calm and leaned a little, saying, "I'm fine, I can adapt."
Zhu Xu nodded slightly. Zhang Yun's mental quality was indeed good, and said, "Well, let's take a break and we'll go to have a meal later. Just be more casual, don't care about them."
Zhang Yun was actually still worried, but with Zhu Xu by her side, she could feel at ease and respond with a smile.
As the two said, Cao Huachun came in and said, "Emperor, Dorgon is here."
Zhu Xu calculated the time and said, "Okay. Let him come in, prepare for the banquet there, Yongning and Ci Yang are all present, and explain to them."
"Yes." Cao Huachun responded.
Zhu Xu thought in his mind, his eyes were full of cleverness. None of these envoys and kings were easy to deal with, and he needed to deal with them seriously.
