Chen Xinjia should be the next to express his opinion, but Chen Xinjia will not speak for the time being, because his opinion is similar to Zhu Youxiang's opinion, if he continues to express his opinion, I am afraid that other people will not be able to speak. Besides, the matter under discussion today is important and sensitive, and if you don't get it well, the emperor will have a lot of ideas.

Zhou Yanru is afraid of a cold situation, so he needs everyone to continue to speak, but at this time, he will not ask Chen Xinjia to express his opinion immediately, Chen Xinjia's thoughts are clear to him, the cabinet's opinion is unanimous, which is a very good situation, but the emperor's thoughts, Zhou Yanru is very clear, if the cabinet's opinions are unprecedentedly unanimous, the emperor will not be at ease.

When he first served as the first assistant to the cabinet, the cabinet discussed things, and there would never be such a situation, and the debate was very intense, and the speech did not need to be named, especially after the disagreement between Zhou Yanru and Wen Tiren, the cabinet often discussed things inconsistently, in fact, the emperor was willing to see such a situation, even if it delayed the court to deal with political affairs.

Zhou Yanru didn't speak, but looked at Qian Qianyi.

Qian Qianyi strongly asked to send troops to suppress Su Tiancheng, let Qian Qianyi express his position at this time, the cabinet will form two opinions, and eventually a consensus will definitely be formed, but the emperor will definitely be in a better mood when he hears such a report.

Qian Qianyi spoke.

"The lower officials and Lord Zhu have different views, the lower officials think that Su Tiancheng must be severely punished, the imperial court does not have any will, but Su Tiancheng led the sergeants of the Jiangning battalion to enter Fujian and Zhejiang without authorization, what is the difference between this and rebellion, if it is according to Lord Zhu's statement, the imperial court also sent a patrol to press the imperial history, wouldn't it be a weakness to Su Tiancheng. Su Tiancheng has occupied Dengzhou, Laizhou and Qingzhou, to which Shandong belongs, and at present, the entire Shandong, the imperial court is difficult to intervene, according to the development of this situation, after Su Tiancheng occupies Fujian, Zhejiang and Shandong, the next step will be to threaten Nanzhili. At that time, the imperial court was in danger. ”

Qian Qianyi's words are awe-inspiring, and they do sound reasonable, as long as they are reasonable readers, they will say this, but unfortunately such words are only said by pedantic readers, they will not consider what the actual situation is, they have determined the truth. It is necessary to insist on it regardless of everything, even if it is a lose-lose situation, and this understanding has been very controversial for hundreds of years.

Qian Qianyi has not finished speaking, he needs to have a clear reason or basis to support his own understanding.

"There are still millions of troops in our imperial court, 100,000 border troops in Liaodong, 50,000 border troops in Datong, 100,000 troops led by Liu Zeqing in Zhejiang, and 200,000 troops led by Zuo Liangyu in Wuchang. The 50,000 army led by Huang Dequan in Luzhou, Jiangxi, and the 30,000 army led by Ma Shiying, the governor of Fengyang. The 50,000 soldiers of the Beijing battalion in Nanzhili, etc., as well as the guards in various places, the Jiangning battalion led by Su Tiancheng, is not more than 100,000 people, and the momentum is even inferior to that of the liukou back then. Could it be that the imperial court could not suppress Su Tiancheng? ”

If there is some truth in the previous words, the meaning behind this is not flattering, and before others can speak against it, Zhu Youxiang, the secretary of the military department, spoke directly.

Mr. Qian said this. I don't dare to agree, the Liaodong Border Army and the Datong Border Army are absolutely not able to be deployed, the meaning of which, you all understand, if these two armies are mobilized, once there is a problem in Liaodong and the border pass, who will be responsible, as for the guards in various places, I don't want to say more, in addition, the expedition needs money and grain, the imperial court must make a dispatch, and must allocate silver taels. ”

"Lord Zhu doesn't dare to agree with the official's opinion, can he just watch Su Tiancheng rebel."

At this time, Chen Xinjia, who had never spoken, couldn't help it, he thought that Qian Qianyi was too naïve.

"Lord Qian, Lord Zhu didn't mean that he was watching Su Tiancheng rebel, but he just needed to confirm the news, and meeting each other was definitely not as simple as he said."

In fact, after Chen Xinjia opened his mouth to say this, Qian Qianyi should understand the meaning, when the two were in Liaodong, they launched a big war, and they suffered a crushing defeat, if it wasn't for Zu Dabi sacrificing his life to save him, I'm afraid the two would become prisoners of the Houjin Tartars, and Chen Xinjia also felt that Qian Qianyi didn't know anything about military affairs, Liaodong back then, if it was deployed according to Qian Qianyi's arrangement, I am afraid that the real big thing has happened, then he Chen Xinjia should not think about being able to keep Xiang Shang's head.

It's a pity that Qian Qianyi doesn't understand.

"Lord Chen, the lower officials don't understand, is it possible that the imperial court is watching Su Tiancheng rebel, the lower officials think that as long as the imperial court is united, it will be easy to exterminate Su Tiancheng."

At this time, everyone was silent, everyone looked at Qian Qianyi, and felt that Qian Qianyi said such words, he was too angry, when the Liukou rebelled, the imperial court worked hard and was not able to exterminate it, Su Tiancheng led the Jiangning battalion to exterminate the Liukou, and the Houjin Tartars entered the pass to show off their might, no army dared to confront head-on, but they were beaten by the Jiangning camp to bow down, such a fact Qian Qianyi could not see, and Qian Qianyi and Chen Xinjia led the Liaodong Border Army to launch a large-scale attack on the Houjin Tartars, As a result, he suffered a fiasco, if it weren't for Su Tiancheng leading the Jiangning battalion and taking Fuzhou and Xuanzhou and other places in one fell swoop, directly threatening Shenyang, how could the Houjin Tartars easily stop, the words that Chen Xinjia said just now meant clearly, that is, he recognized the strength of the Jiangning battalion, Qian Qianyi also said these words, and said these words when the cabinet was discussing things, which is not naïve to explain.

Feeling the eyes of everyone, Qian Qianyi was a little embarrassed.

"What I mean, Su Tiancheng's rebellion is conclusive, and the imperial court always needs to deal with it."

Zhou Yanru spoke, and his words were very peaceful.

"Lord Qian is dedicated to the consideration of the imperial court, and what he said is also good, since it is a cabinet discussion, if you have any ideas, just say it, everyone will make a decision together and report it to the emperor."

Zhou Yanru said this, in fact, he wanted the rest of the people to express their position, Zhu Youxiang and Chen Xinjia's attitude was clear, don't attack for the time being, after conducting an investigation, if you have conclusive evidence, you can crusade again, or take other ways to deal with it, Qian Qianyi's attitude is very clear, and he will not hesitate to use the strength of the whole country to exterminate Su Tiancheng and Jiang Ningying.

Liu Zunxian and Zhang Guowei expressed their positions separately, among which Liu Zunxian supported Qian Qianyi's views, but not as extreme as Qian Qianyi, Liu Zunxian believed that Liu Zeqing, who was stationed in Zhejiang, could move to see what Su Tiancheng and Jiangning Battalion would do.

Zhang Guowei's attitude is the same as Chen Xinjia's, thinking that it is still necessary to get conclusive evidence.

The one who has not expressed his position is Fan Jingwen.

Don't underestimate Fan Jingwen's attitude, because in the imperial court, Fan Jingwen's prestige is very high, and in front of the emperor, Fan Jingwen also dares to fight on the basis of reason.

Zhou Yanru looked at Fan Jingwen.

Fan Jingwen's face has no expression all the time, everyone has expressed their position, and Zhou Yanru also looked at him.

"Your lords have said so much, it is nothing more than two opinions, one is to crusade against Su Tiancheng, and the other is to crusade after confirming the situation, I have to ask a few questions, Lord Qian's so-called crusade, thinking that the Jiangning camp is vulnerable, so these years Jiangning Battalion exterminated the Liukou, conquered the grassland, and fought the Houjin Tartars did not dare to enter the customs, are they all lucky victories, if you ask Lord Qian to lead the army to crusade, if you can't win, you will be punished, I don't know if Lord Qian can pat his chest and agree."

"Lord Chen's so-called crusade after confirming the situation is actually a crusade, but it is just a matter of delaying time, so that our cabinet can be stable for a while."

"My view is very clear, don't avoid this issue, don't act rashly, I am willing to go to Fujian or Zhejiang, on behalf of the imperial court, and talk directly to Su Tiancheng, if Su Tiancheng insists on rebellion, hard persuasion to no avail, I support the crusade against Su Tiancheng, even if it is a misery."

Zhou Yanru breathed a sigh of relief, Fan Jingwen said such words, it can be said that he found the step, in fact, everyone understands, Su Tiancheng will definitely rebel, the situation is very clear, Fan Jingwen can represent the imperial court, go directly to find Su Tiancheng, and make some persuasion, this is the best loss, as long as Su Tiancheng does not clearly express his rebellion, even if he makes his own claims in the south, supports the army and respects himself, and has nothing to do with the imperial court, the imperial court can be temporarily maintained.

Everyone expressed their positions, and Zhou Yanru finally spoke.

"Today's discussion, you are all from the bottom of your heart, this official will definitely report to the emperor truthfully, this official agrees with Lord Fan's suggestion, until the last resort, don't talk about the matter of meeting the soldiers for the time being, the border army of Liaodong and Datong is absolutely impossible to deploy, although it is said that the Houjin Tartar has surrendered to my court, but the barbarians have always been treacherous, if they take advantage of the danger of our court, secretly do it, the situation will be worse, as for Liu Zeqing, who is stationed in Zhejiang, can properly contact the Jiangning camp to understand the true meaning of the Jiangning camp, If Su Tiancheng blindly rebelled, the imperial court must have a clear attitude, even if the jade is burned, it must completely exterminate Su Tiancheng and Jiang Ningying. ”

After Zhou Yanru finished speaking, everyone's expressions were different, but everyone understood that once the emperor knew about this matter, he would definitely be furious, and according to the emperor's temper, he would never compromise, and even as Qian Qianyi said, he would do whatever it took to exterminate Su Tiancheng.
