One one

Seeing Shen Mo's humble words, Xu Jie shook his head and smiled: "Your exposition on reform is indeed old-fashioned" He said with a complicated look at him and said: "Let the old man let go of a big piece of heart" There are words in his sentence, and even Shen Mo doesn't quite understand. However, Xu Ge didn't intend to explain it clearly, he understated it, and then returned to the original topic: "The old man understands what you mean, first stabilize the upper echelons of the clan, take the middle and lower layers to open the knife, divide them, and when the middle and lower layers are completely decomposed, the few upper layers will not be afraid." ”

"The teacher is wise." He said silently: "Most people are selfish, even if a few heroes can understand it, they can't stop the rest of them from being busy, and they can't change anything." ”

"Then what do you think, what should be done with the military power of the palace," Xu Jie asked slowly.

"In the student's humble opinion, what's the matter. It should not be too anxious" said silently: "Even if it is forcibly suppressed now, it is only to make it turn from light to dark, and the top priority now is to continue to resist the east wind of victory, take advantage of the situation to solve the problem of the military system of the Ming Dynasty, and raise the combat effectiveness of the army. ”

"This is another big article." Xu Jie shook his head and smiled bitterly: "First solve the problem in front of you, and then talk about the military system." ”

"What the teacher said is, so I'm not in a hurry to attack the guards now" said silently: "Just check the number of people and order them to cut the supernumerary, as for whether it will be reduced or not, and what the effect of the reduction will be, let's wait for later." ”

Leader Xu Jie smiled: "In a word, the meal must be eaten one bite at a time, and things must be done step by step, and we can be regarded as coincident." After a pause, Xu Ge said, "Don't talk about it so far." Let's talk about how to get through this level now. As he spoke, he stroked his beard and said, "There's really no good way to stop them." ”

"Teacher, do you see if it is silent and said softly: "It's the vassal king of the world." Why don't you all come to Beijing to talk? ”

"Oh" Xu Jie's spirits perked up, but after a while, he shook his head and said: "At this juncture, they don't dare to come to Beijing." ”

"I didn't expect them to come," Shen Mo laughed: "These vassal kings only dare to bark in their own territory, but they don't have the courage to come to the capital." "The imperial court has been arresting and killing for a while, and it is clear that it wants to be tough with the clan, how dare those princes who are greedy for life and afraid of death come to the capital at this time to throw themselves into the net?

"You expected that they wouldn't dare to come," Xu Jie said with some understanding: "That's why you sent this invitation?" ”

"That's right," Shen Mo smiled, "Aren't they wronged?" Now we're going to invite them and give them something. An opportunity to speak. Come, they don't have the guts; If he does not come, he will appear in his original form; At this time, the imperial court will first reprimand, kill their arrogance, and then throw out a new version of the "Sect and Domain Regulations", which may be surprisingly smooth. ”

"You can also be regarded as this" Xu Jie laughed: "Slap a slap and give a sweet date." ”

"That's what the teacher taught me." Shen Mo fluttered a high hat and sent it over, which really made Xu Ge Boss happy.

The two were talking into the alley, when a knock on the door sounded outside: "Ge Lao, six hundred miles urgent!" ”

Xu Jie stopped talking, pointed behind the screen, and motioned for Shen Mo to avoid it, Shen Mo quickly got up and flashed to the back, "He didn't know that before him, there was only one person who could enjoy this kind of treatment.

After the silence of the film, I finally heard Xu Jie's deep voice: "Go down, and then the man answered, and the sound of closing the door came."

"Come on." Xu Jie's voice became a little muffled.

Shen Mo flashed out from behind the screen and asked softly, "Teacher, what's wrong?" ”

"See for yourself," Xu Jie said lightly, and closed his eyes after speaking.

Silently stabilized his mind, reached out and picked up the silk book on the table, which was taken out of the bamboo tube by Xu Jiewang" and looked over, only to see that it was written: "Xiaguan Xijiang Governor Wang Bengu hurriedly played: Xiaguan went to Pinghu according to the imperial court order on the 30th day of the lunar month last year to take over Hu Zongxian's military power, but the Xijiang soldiers were bewitched by Hu, not only refused to accept the command of Xiaguan, but also beat and expelled Xiaguan's guards, and their arrogance was extremely arrogant; The lower officials took the overall situation as the priority, temporarily retreated to Hangzhou, and led the main generals such as Lu Keng, the commander of the Xijiang River, and Yu Dajiao, the commander of the navy, into the city to listen to the order, but they all shirked in every possible way, supported the army and respected themselves, and all the ghost domains in the evil heart were all made by Hu, and his Sima Zhao's heart was already known to passers-by in Jiangnan. I also ask the court to make a quick decision to avoid causing a big disaster."

Before he finished reading it, Shen Mo broke out in a cold sweat, this Wang Bengu is too vicious, he deliberately put Hu Zongxian to death!

Regarding what happened in the southeast, Shen Mo knew better than anyone that "in order to take care of Hu Zongxian's face and stabilize the situation, the imperial court did not invent an edict ordering Hu Zongxian to hand over his military power, but he did hint at him several times in his writings and took the initiative to resign as the governor of the southeast; Xu Ge Lao is also very interesting, and he is allowed to retire with the title of Shangshu and Shaobao of the Ministry of War, which can be regarded as saving the evening festival.

If you know what the imperial court meant at first, it was to escort Hu Zongxian into Beijing and examine it carefully! You can see how much effort Shen Mo put into it. But he did not accept this kindness, ignored the hints of the imperial court, and refused to take the initiative to go into the wilderness.

However, in this matter, the imperial court did not give Wang Bengu a clear decree to temporarily replace Hu Zongxian, "It's just that Xu Ge Lao asked him to talk to Hu Zongxian privately in the form of a private letter to see if he could hand over the military power, and the two sides ended peacefully, but he never let him forcibly take Hu Zongxian's military power."

But Wang Bengu's stunned spirit obviously flares up again, thinking that there is nothing to talk about with people like Hu Zongxian, and only by holding high and beating hard and clearly showing his Hu someone's sin can the dignity of the court be demonstrated. So he took the initiative to attack again, deeply stabbed Hu Zongxian's self-esteem, seriously insulted the feelings of the southeastern soldiers, and made the already tense situation even more serious."

But the problem now is that Hu Zongxian doesn't go to the book to defend himself, everything is silently said here, naturally it is not convincing, even Xu Ge Lao is very serious: "I know that Wang Bengu and Hu Zongxian are quite deep, but the old man believes that in this matter, he will not joke." The harmonious atmosphere was gone, and it was clear that I didn't want to be dragged down by this anymore.

"Teacher Rongyu" said silently: "It is even more impossible for Hu Zongxian to have a heart of disobedience. One comes. He was a loyal man, and secondly, he did not have the ability. ”

"I heard that the soldiers in the southeast only know that there is Hu Dashuai, but they don't know that there is an emperor." Xu Jie said slowly.

"Teacher" silently lifted his shirt, knelt in front of Xu Jie's big case, and said bitterly: "This."

There was a big misunderstanding. If you are gullible and rashly hunt and kill, when the truth is revealed, it will make the Ming Dynasty stained."

"But you are also one-sided" Xu Jie sighed and said: "Except for your fellow countryman in the same year, his subordinate generals, who has ever said good things for him?."

Silence can't help but be speechless, everyone in the world loves icing on the cake, but there are few people who send charcoal in the snow, as soon as the Yan Party falls, they all draw a clear line with Hu Zongxian, if they don't fall into the well, they are kind, who will speak for him and provoke that commotion?

"And this matter must have been passed through the sky" Xu Jiezheng said: "Wang Bengu also has the right to play, and he must have reported to the cabinet at the same time, and he also directly sued the emperor." Saying that, he looked at Shen Mo with stern eyes and said, "Even if the emperor's temper has improved a lot in recent years, it is impossible to tolerate this kind of thing!" ”

"But the threshold is that it didn't happen at all." Shen Mo looked at Xu Jie without dodging and said: "Teacher, everything is what Wang Bengu said, Xijiang is thousands of miles away, a few days ago, what happened there, we can only rely on their report, maybe when Hu Zongxian's comes, there is another version!" ”

"If only he could go to school." Xu Jiedao: "How can things come to this point?" ”

"I will definitely go to the book this time" Shen Mo gritted his teeth and said: "If I don't go to the book, I have nothing to say."

The two looked at each other silently, and the air in the first assistant duty room seemed to be stagnant.

At this moment, a report from outside interrupted the silence of the people inside: "Six hundred miles urgent, Hu Zongxian, the governor of the southeast, is here to report." ”

There was a hint of relief on Shen Mo's face, and Xu Jie waved his hand, signaling where he was coming and going. ""One one small one small one one small one small one small one one small

When Shen Mo turned out from behind the screen again, Xu Jie had already placed Hu Zongxian's recital in front of him.

Sure enough, there is another version above, according to Zongxian, since Wang Bengu was promoted to the governor of Xijiang and in charge of the southeast money and grain, he has deducted the army in every way. As a result, many of his pre-war promises could not be fulfilled, and even the New Year's reward was only 20%, which led to low morale and unstable morale; However, Wang Bengu not only did not try to appease, but instead entered the barracks without permission and physically punished the officers, causing the troops to almost mutiny. Hu Zongxian asked the imperial court to immediately remove Wang Bengu, repay the arrears of military salaries, and send personnel to appease the officers and soldiers. to stabilize the situation in the southeast.

"I really let you say it right," Xu Jie glanced at Shen Mo and said, "Sure enough, they have their own words." It's-for-tat

"Let's just say that the two sides are fighting," Xiao Shen sneered, "I can't listen to this." ”

"You're waiting here". Xu Jie got up and said: "Two six hundred miles in a row, the old man must immediately cut the Ming Emperor." "If you don't even report this, then the emperor really wants to ask, do you use me as an ornament?

"Let's go out and wait first." Although it won't happen, "Lin Jiaotou strayed into the White Tiger Hall. But after all, this is a military aircraft powerhouse, and it is better to avoid suspicion.

"It's not for you to wait here." Xu Jie pointed to a stack of recitals on the table, "This is the recital sent by the provinces in the first month, this book is a major and urgent matter, you read them, according to your own intentions, the so-called vote draft, is to write the opinions on a small piece of paper, sandwiched in the recital." This was the source of the cabinet's initial power, but by the time Xia Yan, Yan Song, and Xu Jie were in power, because the emperor rarely dismissed the cabinet's opinions, it had been changed to directly review it with a blue pen on the fold.

Now Xu Jie asked Shen Mo to learn to read the folds and draft the handling opinions, and it was obvious that there was a meaning of cultivation, "To digress, this was only Zhang Juzheng's patent in the past, and I don't know what Xu Ge Lao thinks now."

Xu Jie's natural expression was slightly excited, and in response, he stood on the edge of the big case and began to open the first book.

Take a stool and sit down, slowly watch Xu Jie stand beside him for a moment, Yin Yin instructed: "Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, no matter if the sky falls, the person in charge can't be in a hurry, stabilize your heart, see clearly, think clearly, and make a decision cautiously" said with a smile: "For Zaifu, hesitation is not terrible. What is terrible is recklessness and hastiness, and you must remember that every decision here will affect the fate of tens of millions of people, and even the rise and fall of the country. ”

Shen Mo didn't feel anything, but when Xu Jie said this, he suddenly felt that the movement in his hand was extremely heavy, and it felt extremely laborious to look at every word.

Seeing his appearance, just like Zhang Ju at the beginning, Xu Jie's mouth hung a knowing smile, quietly left the duty room, dressed neatly, held the notebook, and went straight to Shengshou Palace.

When I arrived outside the palace, I knew that the emperor was here, and if I wanted to talk about the degree of obsession with cultivation, Jiajing was definitely at the ash level, obviously so sick that he couldn't get out of bed, and insisted on meditating at noon every day, but the time was much shorter.

Xu Jie was in the palace all day long, and he knew everything about it, and he was pinching it, but who knew that the emperor had not yet lost his work, so he couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Why is it so long a day?" ”

Ma Quan, who was waiting outside, whispered: "It seems that the work has been finished, and then the emperor called for money, which seems to be divination inside."

The little hexagram Xu Jie frowned slightly, stayed for a while, and then asked in a low voice, "Is there a report this morning?" ”

Ma Quan nodded and said, "Southern, two."

Xu Jie understood, so he kept silent, waited for the emperor to finish his work, and waited until noon, when there was movement inside, only to see the old eunuch Li Fang staggering out, arching his hand towards Xu Jie, and said: "The emperor said, you are allowed to come, and it is really like a god." ”

Xu Jie hugged his fists at Li Fang and said, "Father-in-law, can the lower officials go in to see the emperor?" ”

"The emperor is tired," Li Fang shook his head slightly and said, "I don't want to see you." ”

"Ah," Xu Jie was a little surprised, not knowing how he had provoked the emperor.

"Don't get me wrong". Li Fang said: "The emperor is really tired

"Yes," Xu Jie smiled, "Then the lower official will go back first, and come back later."

After the adults walked away, Li Fang patted his head and said apologetically: "My lord, stay and look at my memory, this is what the emperor gave you, and he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve."

Bottoming out."
