Wanli was annoyed by the sudden opposition of Shen Shixing and the ministers and didn't know what to do, when he heard Yang Zhen's words, his heart suddenly rejoiced, and he hurriedly said: "What does Yang Qing think, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"Commandment." Yang Zhen responded, and then he turned his gaze at Shen Shixing and the others, and with some calm eyes, many people were nervous, and then he said slowly: "Shen Ge Lao, but I don't know why you always have to go against Your Majesty?" ”

"We are not going to oppose Your Majesty, but for the stability of my Ming Dynasty." Shen Shixing changed his past cowardice at this moment, and looked directly into Yang Zhen's eyes and answered.

And his attitude also greatly encouraged the others, and they also responded: "Yes, the prince of the country should be the head of the country, since His Majesty is at fault, the ministers should do their best to advise!" ”

"Yang Dudu, this is the foundation of my Ming Dynasty's inheritance for two hundred years, and it is also the rule of my thousands of years of reproduction in China, how can I change and destroy it at will!"

These people have the support of Shen Shixing, and their momentum is much stronger than before, and you and I even have the meaning of accusing Yang Zhen for not understanding the rules. Indeed, in the eyes of these Chinese officials of the dynasty, a guy like Yang Zhen who relied on force and the favor of the Son of Heaven to rank in the court was indeed of low status.

In the face of such an attitude, Yang Zhen smiled instead of being angry: "It seems that it is because of the so-called ancestral rules that you are determined to oppose the Son of Heaven." ”

"If you don't have rules, you can't make a circle."

"As the saying goes, if the name is not right, the word is not good, and if the word is not good, it will not be done. From a small family to a large country, there is no exception. I have a vast territory of thousands of miles, and the people of Li are trillions, and the stakes are very important, and we cannot decide at will because of a momentary thought. Shen Shixing also expressed his opinion without hesitation.

There is a way to be upright and strong, at this moment, whether it is Shen Shixing or those other officials, they have shown this, and they are all full of energy, even if they stand face to face with Yang Zhen, they don't have the slightest intention of retreating. This is also where the confidence of the Ming officials who have always dared to oppose the Son of Heaven is located, because they think they are on the side of morality and etiquette.

It was Wang Xijue, who felt a little embarrassed at this time. Because of his silence just now, he was destined to be regarded as a traitor among the ministers, and once the matter was really finalized by Shen Shixing, he would not be able to sit firmly in this subordinate position.

Like him, there are also Yang Chen and others, and those officials are also full of apprehension, for fear that the matter will really be decided by the other party's words, so that their future in the officialdom will be completely over.

Yang Chen was uneasy, so he fixed his eyes on Yang Zhen's body, he knew that the only one who could match him at this moment was his brother.

And Yang Zhen's reaction greatly surprised everyone, only to see him suddenly look up and laugh: "Hahahaha......" as if what these people in front of him said was a big joke.

This reaction fell in the eyes of everyone, and it also made them stunned, and they were a little surprised. After a while, Shen Shixing said a little unhappily: "Why, Yang Dudu, do you think the words of our people are ridiculous?" ”

"Of course!" Yang Zhen nodded without leaving any emotion and said: "What rules do you keep talking about, what ancestors do you use to oppose Your Majesty's intentions, in my opinion, it is really ridiculous." ”

"Humph! Yang Dudu, although your status is not low, you are not afraid to flash your tongue when you say this! Shen Shixing's eyes were scorching, staring at Yang Zhen: "It is said that you are bold and reckless, Benfu didn't think so, but now he believes it completely, you don't even care about your ancestors, it's really bold!" ”

In order to suppress Yang Zhen, Wanli's biggest help and backer, Shen Shixing couldn't take care of it too much, and he had to use the greatest pressure to suppress this person. And in his eyes, there is no existence in this world that can exert more pressure on Yang Zhen than the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, this can also prevent the Son of Heaven above from favoring Yang Zhen, because those are his ancestors, how dare people who are descendants say that their ancestors are not?

Yang Zhen smiled again, then turned his face and reprimanded: "Shen Shixing, as the head of the cabinet, don't you think it's ridiculous that you dare to tell me what the ancestors have made the law?" ”

As soon as this remark came out, Mo said that Shen Shixing, everyone was stunned, and I don't know where he came from such logic. Then, someone jumped out and shouted: "Bold! Yang Zhen, you are so presumptuous, you actually insulted the cabinet chief assistant so much above the court! ”

"What? Doesn't Shousuke-sama know what his problem is? Yang Zhen ignored the man's scolding, just narrowed his eyes and looked at Shen Shixing, his eyes were shining, and there was a cold glow that made people's hearts palpitate.

Shen Shixing was also a little puzzled, and he didn't know why Yang Zhen had put on such a determined appearance. There is really nothing wrong with his own words, how can he let him grasp the handle? Is he bluffing, or stalling for time, trying to refute himself?

The more he thought about it, the more Shen Shixing felt that this judgment was very reliable. In order not to give Yang Zhen too much time to react, he simply followed the other party's words and said: "Yang Dudu's words are really a little confusing, presumably everyone in the court is not clear now, and I hope you can explain one or two." After saying this, he found that the light in Yang Zhen's eyes was another sheng, which made him subconsciously feel a little nervous again, as if he had really fallen into some trap.

Yang Zhen shook his head lightly: "Shen Ge Lao, you are really disappointing, and you ......" I saw that he kept shaking his head, with a pity on his face. Just when everyone was a little impatient and wanted to ask again, he spoke: "What rules do you claim, but in fact, the most unruly ones are the people of you, especially you, the head of the cabinet. ”

"I said that Yang Dudu has some high opinions, but it turned out to be such a lie and intimidation, which is really disappointing!" Although his heart was uneasy, Shen Shixing was still barely able to deal with it calmly.

Other officials also chimed in: "Yang Dudu, don't you want to bluff people by saying these big words, since you dare to point out Lord Shoufu, come up with decent evidence." ”

Listening to the ministers' targeted words, even Wanli was anxious and worried, he didn't know what Yang Zhen could come up with to refute the other party's words, anyway, he, the emperor, couldn't think of any tricks. And once Yang Zhen is defeated, he really can't hold up today's affairs alone.

For a moment, Wanli even felt regretful, he regretted listening to Yang Zhen's advice, and actually wanted to finish the battle, which would make him completely lose control of the matter of the prince. Originally, he could continue to use the procrastination trick again, dragging him for ten or eight years, and then there might be a turnaround. But now, there are only two results, either Yang Zhen succeeds, thus supporting Zhu Changxun as the prince, or fails, and then makes Zhu Changluo the prince......

Even Yang Chen, who had the most confidence in Yang Zhen, was full of entanglements at this time, not knowing what he was thinking, he could only look at his brother expectantly, to see what decent excuses he could come up with.

Under the gaze of everyone, Yang Zhen spoke: "The so-called rules are just the self-righteous opinions of you scholars. Let me ask you, are Tang Taizong and Emperor Chengzu of this dynasty the throne that they inherited only after establishing their heirs? Do you dare to say that they are not fit to be the sons of heaven? ”

The people who were holding back their strength and wanted to refute him were suddenly suffocated when they heard this, and they all held back the words that came to their mouths. Tang Taizong Li Shimin is a generation of virtuous monarchs, a model in the hearts of emperors in the past, and a king who is hoped to be assisted by hundreds of officials, so naturally no one dares to say no to him.

As for Emperor Chengzu of this dynasty, let alone that. Which guy dares to say that he is not, it is light to kill the head and rob the family. Moreover, these two people are really just like what Yang Zhen said, they are not the emperor who obtained the throne by the rules of establishing a successor, and this argument is quite sufficient.

But...... Everyone looked different again, looking at Yang Zhen's eyes full of strangeness, even Wanli, and they also felt complicated, and they didn't know what to think. It's just because the way these two got the throne is really hard to say, one killed his brother and killed his brother, and the other even directly raised troops and grabbed his nephew's world into his hands. Yang Zhen's analogy is really inappropriate.

Many officials secretly slandered in their hearts: "This Yang Zhen is a rough man in the end, although he has read some history books, he obviously doesn't know much about it, and he actually uses these two to show his eyes, I'm afraid that even the Son of Heaven may not accept this feeling." ”

But if you think so, it is extremely difficult to refute, which makes the scene in the court seem very silent for a while, and everyone stands in silence on the spot, not knowing what to say.

Shen Shi moved his mouth, but in the end he did not speak.

But Yang Zhen didn't mean to just forget it: "If you talk about rules, there are many rules that I have set in the past, but they have already been completely destroyed." As he spoke, his gaze swept towards everyone again, and finally fell on Shen Shixing: "Elder Shen Ge, I have something to ask you to answer on your behalf." ”

Shen Shixing didn't answer this well, so he could only nod slightly: "Yang Dudu, please speak." ”

"Where did this cabinet system come from?" Yang Zhen asked lightly.

Everyone was a little stunned when they heard him ask such a common-sense question. And Shen Shixing was also stunned, and then said: "The cabinet system of this dynasty is from the time of Taizu. Because Hu Weiyong's case showed that there were too many shortcomings in the prime minister's system, Taizu removed this system that had been passed down for thousands of years...... Then, in order to facilitate the assistance of the Son of Heaven in handling many political affairs, Taizu established the cabinet system......" Speaking of this, his voice suddenly stopped, and then his face showed a look of panic, and his eyes were full of understanding and awe of Yang Zhen.

Everyone else looked at Shen Ge Lao strangely, they didn't know why he had such a reaction, only a few people like Yang Chen showed a strange expression, they already understood the truth!
