I want to be built at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, and when I arrived at the time of Ming Chengzu Zhu Di, it was particularly prosperous, so I sent troops to conquer Jiaozhi (now Vietnam). At that time, the commander of the army was the late British Gong Zhang Fu. With the strength of the Ming army, they were defeated and the province of Cochin was established. In 1431 AD, the province of Cochin was revoked, and Li Li accepted the canonization of the Ming Dynasty and became the king of Annam.

This move dealt a major blow to the prestige of the central government over the southwest Tusi. Later, Shi Duo's facts proved that the negative effects caused by Xuande's "abandonment of Jiaozhi" were long-term and fatal. This incident dealt a heavy blow to the international prestige of the Ming Dynasty in the Western region and shook the Ming Dynasty's suzerainty status. The loss of Annan means the loss of the West, which Zhu Zhanji probably did not expect. Since then, Annan has been disturbing the border and encroaching on the land. Finally, there is today's insulting incident.

Zhu Qizhen went down to the court in anger, and Cao Jixiang, the chief eunuch who followed him, always looked like he wanted to speak and stopped.

"Cao Aiqing, is there something wrong?" Noticing the changes in Cao Jixiang beside him, Zhu Qizhen stopped and asked with a frown.

"When the minister dies, it is fast to say a word, but I am afraid that it will make the emperor angry." Cao Jixiang heard Zhu Qizhen's inquiry, and fell to his knees with a plop, with a panicked face.

"As long as it is for the good of the country and for the good of me, Cao Aiqing might as well tell me directly, I can forgive you for your innocence." Zhu Qizhen still has a good impression of this big eunuch who seems to be loyal to him, at least this person is dedicated to himself, and he is also dedicated to himself, which is much better than some courtiers who only know how to fight for power and profit, and it is more reassuring.

Hearing that he was not guilty, Cao Jixiang knocked his head on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the matter in Yunnan is not unsolvable, and the reason why the progress of the armies is slow and the result of the victory is because the generals in front are afraid of the enemy. As the so-called emperor is far away, no one supervises, I'm afraid that only the holy decree is not enough for them to do their best? The minister asked to send the prison army to the front line to put pressure on them, so that the emperor had an extra pair of eyes watching them, staring at them, not worrying that they would dare not do their best and dare not to sell their lives. ”

Finally understood what Cao Jixiang meant, Zhu Qizhen's brows furrowed deeply: "Cao Aiqing means to send eunuchs to the front line to supervise the army?" ”

"The minister is afraid, the people sent can arrange the emperor's henchmen, and the minister will not say more on this matter." Cao Jixiang did not admit it, nor did he deny it. He was afraid that his suggestion would give Yingzong the idea that he wanted to seize power and meddle in military power, so he didn't dare to say anything more about this meeting.

Originally, the Ming Dynasty had a system of supervising the army, and every time there was a big war, eunuchs would be sent to the palace, called the supervising army, in fact, to watch over those generals for the emperor, and then report their performance in a secret way.

Facts have also proved that with the eunuch's supervising army, the generals in front really did not dare to slack off, and some even deliberately showed a very brave appearance, in order to get a good impression in the hearts of the eunuchs, in order to be able to spread their names to the emperor's ears, and then the future is immeasurable.

But since the defeat of civil engineering, for the sake of Yingzong's reputation, everyone attributed the defeat to Wang Zhen's head, and some people even bluntly said that fighting is not child's play, how can it happen that a layman guides an insider?

Since then, the eunuch prison has been vetoed. This also makes the entire eunuch group want to survive only around the emperor, otherwise, they who have no military power may be eliminated and replaced at any time.

In order to supervise the army and seize the military power, these eunuch leaders have tried to solve it more than once, but because Wang Zhen's experience is there, it is really difficult to change.

And now, it seems, the opportunity has come. Zhu Qizhen's dissatisfaction with the battle situation in Yunnan made Cao Jixiang, who was following on the side, see an opportunity, and he said with a picture of going to death.

Cao Jixiang is completely a picture of serving the country and the people, which moved Zhu Qizhen. He also felt that the imperial power seemed to have insufficient control over the war in Yunnan, and it was not that he did not think about sending eunuchs to supervise the army. Although this move may have the drawbacks of laymen guiding insiders, it is undeniable that having eunuchs on the front line can indeed make the imperial power and emperor's will directly reach the army, and better allow the army to fight bravely.

In the past, it was because of Wang Zhen's influence and the obstruction of hundreds of officials that the example of eunuchs and supervising the army had to be stopped, but now Jiaozhi is so rampant, he proposed to send eunuchs and supervising the army at this time, presumably no one will say anything. What's the matter, everyone wants the queen to be their wife, isn't the emperor allowed to fight back?

"Okay, Daban is dedicated to the country, and his loyalty can be learned, that is, he ordered Qian Liang to be the eunuch of the Yunnan War Supervision Army, and urged the generals to fight bravely on the battlefield to kill the enemy, and if there is disobedience, they can be punished according to the law."

Zhu Qizhen finally opened his mouth and personally named Qian Liang's name. Cao Jixiang was not surprised by this, and knocked his head to the ground again, "Emperor Shengming, long live, long live, long live." ”

Who is Qian Liang? He is the nephew of the great eunuch Qian Shengbao. Qian Seng Bao thought that when he was outside the Yang family of the Northern Ming Dynasty, he was the one who wrestled with Jin Ying, and he was also an old minister who followed Yingzong. Later, he followed the ministers to Nanjing, but because of the influence of Wang Zhen, he has been very low-key recently.

Hibernation is equal to opportunity, and now the opportunity has finally come, and it has finally soared into the sky.

It seems that Qian Liang is Qian Shengbao's person, and it seems that he has some problems with Cao Jixiang on weekdays. But that's just for outsiders to see, in fact, since they came to Nanjing, these eunuchs have been unusually united, and they may also know that if they don't do this, they will have no chance of getting ahead. So on the surface, everyone doesn't like each other, but secretly the relationship is excellent. This time Cao Jixiang made a suggestion, he didn't think that he would send his own people to serve as the supervisor of the army, he only needs to have a eunuch to go, which is equivalent to achieving the goal, as for who it is, it has a close relationship with himself.

Zhu Qizhen's holy decree was then issued, and Qian Liang also left Kyoto with a group of brocade guards and went straight to Nanjing. This scene was seen by many courtiers, but this time no one spoke out against it.

If you want to blame it, the king of Jiaozhi spoke too rampantly, and if you want to blame it, these eunuchs chose to come out The opportunity is so good that the courtiers are powerless to resist.

In the Kuang Mansion in Kyoto.

Kuang Ye, who was dedicated to recuperating at home, could not leave the house, nor could he go to the court to meet the emperor. However, his position as secretary of the military department has not changed, and some major and minor events that have occurred in the DPRK and China will be transmitted to him at the first time.

When he learned that the emperor had sent eunuchs to supervise the front line in Yunnan, Kuang Ye let out a long sigh, "Has the emperor forgotten about Wang Zhen's troubles?" Don't you know that doing so might only make the situation worse? ”

After a long sigh, Kuang Ye couldn't help but think of Yang Chendong's appearance in his mind.

has been a military secretary for so many years, Kuang Ye is a person who knows soldiers and understands soldiers. The situation in Yunnan is so complicated and chaotic that it can be solved by sending a eunuch to supervise the army? I'm afraid that if these eunuchs go, not only will they not help, but they will make the situation even more chaotic. So who's going to end up solving things there? It seems that it has to be placed on Yang Chendong's body.

Regarding the treatment of Yang Chendong, it was only after Kuang Ye returned to the mansion that the result was given above the court.

It's really all the birds, and the good bow is hidden. But the problem is that there are still flying birds, and there are still a lot of them, and he can't understand why Yingzong is so anxious to hide Yang Chendong.

It's just that it has become a fact, and now it is a matter of how it will change this result, rather than investigating the cause. "Come on, take a pen and grind the paper inkstone, I want to write to Guan Ying..."

......

The temporary location of the Min Palace, the Che Li Division.

The full name of Cheli Division is Cheli Xuanwei Division, now Manjinglan, a southeastern suburb of Jinghong City, Yunnan.

This is the place that King Min chose before he declared his independence, because of the complex terrain here, and the distance from the Central Plains, it was chosen as the new land of Longxing.

This original king is now the place of the king of Minzhuang. At this time, there were heavy guards inside and outside, and men with knives and guns could be seen everywhere to ensure that not even a single fly could fly into the yard without a red flag.

But in such a well-guarded place, a man wearing a soft gauze Tang scarf, wearing a purple embroidered robe, holding a white paper folding fan, slender body, face like a crown of jade, walking graceful, smiling before speaking, elegant and noble, but the twenty-year-old son and brother walked on the stone steps in this courtyard like a leisurely stroll.

From time to time, he would look left and right, as if looking for the beauty of the courtyard.

For the appearance of this son-in-law, all the guards seemed to have not seen it, and no matter where his gaze fell, it seemed to be a very natural thing.

"Yao Gongzi, Yao Gongzi, why did you come here, but let the slaves and maids find it easily." The two anxious maids came to the young boy, panting and talking as if they were complaining about something.

"Hehe, I've worked hard for you, but is the county owner looking for me?" There was a hint of a smile on the young boy's face, and this smile alone gave people the feeling of a spring breeze.

"Yes, the county lord has prepared a new tune, just waiting for Yao Gongzi to appreciate it together." The two maids nodded incessantly. After saying this, he couldn't help but take the child's arm left and right, and walked straight to the other courtyard.

In this regard, this Yao Gongzi still maintained a smiling face, letting the two girls pull and pull, but only in the depths of his eyes, there was a faint trace of murderous intent, and he was remembering every scene in the courtyard, including how many guards there were, where they were distributed, and so on.
