"It's not that it didn't work, but Zhao Mingxing was too tough, he actually fought for his life, and ended up losing both, and the examiner judged it to be a tie!"

"That means that all the means have been broken this time, and they have not played their due role!" Xiao Sa said with a gloomy face. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

When the middle-aged housekeeper heard this, he snorted and knelt on the ground, "Please forgive the son, it is really that Zhao Mingxing is too strong, and there are people who protect him secretly, so our means have repeatedly failed, and I also ask the son to give me the opportunity to atone for the crime, and I will go and abolish that Zhao Mingxing tonight!" ”

Xiao Sa didn't say a word, just quietly looked at the middle-aged man in the housekeeper, and finally, sighed, "That's it, time is also lucky, I don't blame you!" Get up! ”

"Gongzi Xie!" The middle-aged housekeeper spoke with joy and uncertainty in his words, but he actually passed the test like this this time?

"Alright, get up! I have something to tell you! Xiao Sa said impatiently.

The middle-aged man in the housekeeper kowtowed and looked up at Xiao Sa.

"You sent someone to keep an eye on the Ming Mansion for me, if there is any movement, come and report it at any time!" Xiao Sa commanded.

The housekeeper should be gone.

"Let's find out, who is behind it?" Xiao Sa said to the air.

Be! What's even more strange is that there is a response in the air.

After Xiao Sa finished the order, he ignored it anymore and buried himself in the pen and practiced calligraphy.

Let's say that when Ma Wen appreciated this martial arts, originally, after the martial arts bow and horse test, he should have a comprehensive strategy and bow horse test to determine the person in the middle of the test, and then submitted the results to Emperor Hongzhi for him to determine the ranking, but after the bow horse test, he left quickly, and the instructors were also very confused.

But they knew that something big must have happened in the court, and Emperor Hongzhi summoned him, so Ma Wensheng didn't care about the martial arts and left in a hurry.

However, when he left, he had already instructed everyone to determine the level of candidates who had passed the martial arts as soon as possible, and wait for him to come back and talk about other things.

Not to mention that the examiners summarized the candidates' results and determined the level, and said that Ma Wensheng came to the imperial city non-stop and went straight to the Hongzhi Imperial Study.

As soon as Ma Wensheng entered the imperial study, he saw a family sitting in the imperial study.

The three elders, the ministers and ministers have arrived.

This is really a big deal! Ma Wensheng was shocked, but with many years of experience in officialdom, he had already cultivated the ability to collapse Mount Tai in front of him without moving, and took a step forward to salute Emperor Hongzhi after the Chonglong case.

"Your Majesty, Weichen is late, and I hope to forgive my sins!"

"Oh, Ma Qing's house is here! Sit down! Sit down! Hongji looked up and saw Marven rising in, and raised his hand.

However, Ma Wensheng looked at him and was even more shocked, just because Emperor Hongzhi was full of sadness at that time, his brows were tightly locked, and he looked preoccupied!

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ma Wensheng knows in his heart, this is going to be discussed! He sat down slowly, looking at the ministers with inquiring eyes.

But I saw that the pavilion elders next to him just nodded at him, continued to frown, and lowered their heads in contemplation.

It seems that something really big has happened!

"Ma Qingjia, what's going on with Wuju?" Emperor Hongzhi looked at Ma Wensheng and asked, after all, Ma Wensheng was called back by him from the martial arts bow and horse test, and this martial arts is related to the future generals and handsome talents of the Ming Dynasty, so he has to ask.

"Your Majesty, the bow and horse test has ended, just wait for the examiners to combine the test and the bow and horse test, and divide the levels, you can ask Your Majesty to ruling!" Ma Wensheng owes his body and returns.

"Really? So can the candidates for this martial arts examination have that amazing talent? When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, his face softened slightly, and he asked.

At the mention of this, Marven rose to strength, and his eyebrows flew and he said, "Your Majesty, there are really those talented people this time, and there are many of them!" In terms of strategy alone, there are dozens of outstanding warriors. As for the bow and horse test, this actual combat competition, a large number of skilled martial arts have emerged, congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, the Ming Army Lieutenant General is about to come out! ”

"Really?" Hongji's gloomy face instantly eased, and a hint of a smile appeared, "If it's really as you said, it's the blessing of our Ming Dynasty!" ”

"Your Majesty, let's discuss how to deal with it! If the matter of the martial arts candidates wants to be effective, I am afraid that it will take a while to appear, and the most urgent thing now is to find a way to stabilize the frontier and solve the earthquake! Liu Jian raised his head, looked at Ma Wensheng with displeasure, and looked at Emperor Hongzhi in return.

Earthquake? Ma Wensheng's heart was shocked, where did this natural disaster happen?

When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he smiled, "Liu Qing, the martial arts matter involves the Ming Dynasty in the future, I also have to understand the situation!" ”

"Your Majesty, this earthquake is a major matter, please be cautious, be careful!" Liu Jian said.

"I know it in my heart, I know it in my heart!" Hongzhi looked at Liu Jian and nodded.

"Elder Li Ge, what is this?" Ma Wensheng pushed Li Dongyang next to him and asked in a low voice.

Li Dongyang sighed before speaking, and said with a sad face, "Master Ma, on the fourth day of the first lunar month, there was an earthquake in Yiliang, Yunnan, there was a sound like thunder, from the southwest, from the time of the son to the time of Hai, more than 20 times in a row, the yamen, the city shop, the temple, the house shook down a few times, the dead and injured men and women were countless (one made to crush tens of thousands), the county seat is a brick city, Hongwu 24 years built at the foot of the pheasant mountain, Thursday, one zhang four feet high, the earthquake collapsed. Faming Temple also collapsed, Chengjiang Fuheyang (now Chengjiang) officials and people collapsed, and many people were crushed to death. Miserable! Miserable! ”

"There was an earthquake in Yiliang, Yunnan?" Ma Wensheng was shocked.

"Hmm!" Li Dongyang nodded with sadness on his face.

"What about the local government?" Ma Wensheng asked.

"Now the local government has organized manpower to move the people to a safe place, but the aftermath of the earthquake has not ended, and it has been shaken from time to time. Moreover, the earthquake destroyed the granary, burying the grain in the ground, and it was impossible to get out at all! Therefore, the local government urgently sent people to report to the Beijing division for 500 miles, and waited for disaster relief! Xie Qian added on the side.

"Ahh How serious is it? Ma Wensheng exclaimed.

"I'm afraid it's worse than that! If the victims cannot be resettled in time, they are afraid that riots will start! Li Dongyang sighed.

"So what are you waiting for! Transferring grain from Jiangnan for disaster relief! Send the army again to deter the bomb pressure! Ma Wensheng said urgently.

"Master Ma, you don't know, this is not the only thing!" Xie Qian sighed.

"What? And also? "Ma Wensheng is messy.

"Ma Qing, listen to the situation first! The specific methods and measures will be discussed later! "Hongji Road.

"Yes! Your Majesty! Ma Wensheng turned his head to Hongzhi and bowed.

"Xie Qing, tell me about it!" Hongji turned to Xie Qiandao.

After Xie Qian gave a salute to Hongzhi, he said to the ministers,

"In addition to the Yiliang earthquake in Yunnan, Miru in Zanyi Prefecture, Yunnan Province has an incident, and this matter must also be done easily, otherwise Miru will take advantage of this to expand the scale, I am afraid that the situation in Yunnan will be difficult to control!"

Those here knew in their hearts that they had already discussed this matter, but they had not taken it seriously.

Mirunai was the daughter of An Min of Tuzhi Prefecture in Zhanyi Prefecture (now Xuanwei, Yunnan) and the wife of Long Chang, a local judge of Pu'an Division (now Panxian County, Guizhou). Miru was expelled by Long Chang for committing a crime and took up residence in his father's house. Long Chang passed on the position to his son Long Li due to old age. And Pu'an Division has a battalion commander named Abao, who has a personal relationship with Miru, so he intercedes for Miru in front of Longli, and Longli relents for a while and welcomes Miru home. When Long Chang heard about this, he killed Long Li in a fit of rage and burned down Abao's walled city. In September of the twelfth year of Hongzhi (1499), Abao and his son Ahu attacked Longchang with Miru, but Longchang was defeated and fled to Yunnan.

The Yunnan government reported the matter to the court, and the imperial court sent someone to order the local officials to take charge of the matter! The matter came to an end.

Subsequently, the chief military officer of Guizhou, Dongning Bo Jiaojun, and the governor of Guizhou, Yushi Qianyue, went to Pu'an Division to lobby Abao, hoping that they would reconcile. Abao was forced by the government to intervene and agreed to reconcile with Long Chang.

The Yunnan government reported that the matter was resolved peacefully. The imperial court did not take this matter to heart.

Unexpectedly, after Jiao and Qian returned to Guizhou, Miru actually killed Long Chang and occupied the walled city to rebel.

Long Chang's concubine Shiwu gave birth to two other sons, and after Long Chang was killed, he avoided Annanwei (present-day Jinglong, Guizhou). Abao wants to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, and build a wall to surround its city. In addition, build three villages in Pu'an, the village where it lives is called "Chengtian", self-proclaimed "invincible king", and go in and out of Huangxu.

At this time, there was an earthquake in Yiliang, Yunnan, and the government didn't care about it at all, so it could only send the matter to Beijing along with the earthquake and ask the court to decide.

When the officials present heard about this, they weighed in their hearts that originally, Miru's matter was just a trivial matter, but if it happened together with the Yiliang earthquake in Yunnan, it would not be a trivial matter.

You know, in times of natural disasters, if there is a man-made disaster, it is a big deal! If the two are combined, I am afraid that Yunnan will make a big move and be in turmoil.

At this time, the matter of Duoyan Sanwei in the north has not yet been resolved, if there is another big chaos in Yunnan in the south, taking care of this and losing the other, the two sides of the court will fight, but I am afraid that the follow-up will be powerless!

In addition, there is still war in the northwest, which is really embattled! Therefore, after discussing with the elders, Emperor Hongzhi had no choice but to gather all the courtiers, hoping to properly handle the matter.

After saying this, for a while, the ministers fell silent.

As an old fritter in the officialdom, no matter what you suggest at this time, you can't guarantee that you will be foolproof, if this loss is caught up by yourself, I am afraid that it will be registered in the heart of Emperor Hongzhi, and it will hinder your future career, if it is serious, I am afraid that I will no longer have an inch, so you know! There was an eerie silence in the study.

Hongji looked at everyone, and he understood in his heart the concerns of these ministers, but he couldn't say it, let's not be held accountable! If that's the case, I'm afraid it will cause these old fritters to be more careful.

He couldn't help but set his eyes on the three elders.

And several pavilion elders have set their eyes on Liu Jian, the first assistant.

"Ahem!" Liu Jian saw that he couldn't dodge, so he had to cough lightly, "Everyone, at this critical moment, we need everyone to work together, after all, all parties involved in this matter!" No one is immune! ”

"Yes! Let's talk about what is the best plan and think of a way together! Xie Qian echoed.

Li Dongyang also nodded and set his eyes on the ministers.

Everyone looked at each other, but helplessness flashed in their eyes, since His Majesty and the elders had already spoken, they couldn't push the commission, but it also depends on the qualifications, who spoke first, who spoke later, there is something special about this.

Ni Yue, the secretary of the ministry, coughed lightly, attracted everyone's attention, and said, "This matter is actually not difficult!" ”

Oh! At this time, everyone turned their eyes to him, and even Hongji was also looking for him.

Ni Yue (1444-1501) was a minister of the Ming Dynasty. The word Shun consulted, a native of Shangyuan (now Nanjing, Jiangsu). He is studious and proficient in literature, and he is well versed in the affairs of the world. Born in the family of the eunuch, his father Ni Qian once served as the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, and was called Wenxi. Ni Yue was admitted to the eighth year of Tianshun (1464) Jinshi. Ren Shu Jishi, awarded the position of editor. During the Chenghua period, he successively served as a bachelor and lectured in the East Palace. In the twenty-second year of Tianshun (1486), he was promoted to the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, and he was still on duty at the imperial chair. In the early years of Hongzhi, it was changed to Zuo Shilang. Ni Yue is studious, quick in writing and thinking, and has a broad overview of the affairs of the world. Geng Yu, who was the secretary of the Ministry of Rites at the time, was a square man and upheld great gifts, so that the etiquette system had to be decided by Ni Yue. In the sixth year of Hongzhi (1493), Geng Yu was transferred to the Ministry of Officials, and Ni Yue was appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites. Later, he successively served as the secretary of the Nanjing Officials and the Second Ministry of Soldiers, and returned to Beijing as the secretary of the Ministry of Officials.

He is a burly man with a cold and serious expression, and he is good at deciding big things. Whenever the Manchu ministers discussed something and everyone had different opinions, he only said a few short words, which made the listeners happy and convinced. Moreover, he has a unique view on side affairs, but the military department has not adopted it, which is very regrettable. Then, all the things on the border fulfilled his analysis, so Hongji trusted him very much. At this time, he took the lead in saying it, and everyone wanted to hear it.

"In this time of natural and man-made disasters, reassuring people's hearts is the first priority. However, to help people's hearts, it is necessary to first let the people be fed and clothed, so the disaster relief must be carried out immediately, therefore, please also ask Your Majesty to summon the nearest food disaster relief, and arrange simple houses for them, so that they can live and have food, and they will not be agitated! will not be encouraged by people with intentions, this point, before the epidemic in Henan Jiangbei Province, the victims were forced to be diverted into Shandong Province, and the Jinan Government of Shandong Province did very well! First settle their bodies, and then calm their hearts, so that the victims can spend the day with peace of mind, so that a catastrophe will be eliminated! Wonderful! ”

Hongji nodded in approval.

The old ministers also nodded one after another, this is a serious statement!

"There is another rule, these victims must be divided, and they must also be guarded by the army or yamen, and no one must be allowed to contact them, this point must be remembered. After all, people's hearts are the most vulnerable in the face of natural disasters, if someone with a heart is slightly agitated, I am afraid that they will be impetuous, and if someone spreads rumors, it will be a monstrous disaster! ”

"That's true!" Liu Jian nodded in approval.

Ni Yue heard what Liu Jian said, and did not get carried away, but said with a solemn face, "Actually, appeasing the people of natural disasters is still secondary, the most important thing is to eliminate the incident of Namiru, so as to make Yunnan stable!" ”

"Oh, it seems that Ni Qing must have a good plan!" Hongzhi looked at Ni Yue with a smile on his face, and said secretly in his heart, alas, at the critical moment, he is still an old courtier!
