Yang Sichang is indeed out of his mind, he knows the situation of the court very well, and he understands the emperor's thoughts, but in Su Tiancheng's letter, Yang Sichang completely agrees with the points of view, he feels that he must say all the points of view, as for what kind of decision the emperor will make in the end, it is not something he can control.

The brutality of the Houjin Tartars and the pain caused to the people in the Beizhili area, Yang Sichang will not forget, even if Su Tiancheng has a bad intention, but for so many years, Su Tiancheng has never caused harm to the people, and from this point of view, the imperial court cannot easily let go of the Houjin Tartars.

In fact, Yang Sichang has such an idea, it has been a long time, his father Yang He used to be the governor of the three sides, but he was helpless to suppress the bandits, the decision-making was wrong, he was convicted by the imperial court, and put into prison, although he was released, but since then he has been depressed, and he has been depressed, Yang Sichang wants to rely on his own ability, raise his eyebrows, and complete his father's unfulfilled wish, and finally got Sun Chengzong's recommendation, and ascended to the sky in one step, becoming the first assistant of the cabinet, but unfortunately he is the first assistant of the cabinet, not to mention how aggrieved he is, there are Tang Shiji and Zhu Xianxuan in front, There is Zhou Yanru in the back, but the emperor likes to play balance, deliberately restricts the power of the cabinet chief assistant, and attaches importance to the role of the cabinet assistant, so that he has almost no time to be happy.

When it comes to major affairs in the imperial court, many times Yang Sichang is unable to make a decision, and after a long time, the resentment in his heart can be imagined, and Yang Sichang paid special attention to what Su Tiancheng did, and he still had some sense of identity in his heart. Of course, Yang Sichangjue did not approve of Su Tiancheng's rebellion, but he still insisted on the line of relaxation, and Su Tiancheng made his current posture, in some respects, the emperor and the court are responsible.

Yang Sichang is clear. Just relying on such a reason, it may not be able to convince the emperor, and even if he says more reasons, the emperor will insist on peace talks, but as the head of the cabinet, he will not continue to be silent.

Zhu Youzhen didn't speak, and Zhou Yanru continued to speak.

"There is some truth in what Lord Yang said, but the lower officials think that the Houjin Tartar has encountered a predicament. With the meaning of bowing down to the ministers, the imperial court must seize such an opportunity, once the Houjin Tartars bow down to the ministers, you and I, as cabinet ministers, should think of ways to limit the strength of the Houjin Tartars, rely on the cabinet and the Manchu civil and military, and weaken the strength of the Houjin Tartars. For the emperor's worries, do you have to meet each other? Can we completely eradicate the Houjin Tartar? ”

I have to say that Zhou Yanru's reaction was very fast.

After Zhou Yanru finished speaking, Chen Xinjia spoke.

"Your Majesty, the minister shouldn't be talkative, but the minister has a personal experience, and he fought with the Houjin Tartars in Liaodong and suffered defeat. The minister was deeply ashamed, the cost of meeting each other was huge, and the minister thought that it would be better to think of other ways to weaken the strength of the Houjin Tartars. In this way, we can reduce the burden of the people and show the wisdom of our wisdom. ”

Chen Xinjia had just finished speaking, and Qian Qianyi also spoke.

"The emperor is merciful and considers the people wholeheartedly, and the ministers agree to negotiate peace, and weaken the Houjin Tartars through other methods, so that the Houjin Tartars will be subjugated to the emperor."

Only Liu Yuliang didn't express his position, in fact, in this situation, it doesn't matter much whether Liu Yuliang makes a statement or not, but it's a pity that Yang Sichang, who has a single heart, will not give in.

"Your Majesty, all the lords agree with the peace, but the minister still disagrees, and I implore the emperor to let the minister finish the reason."

Zhu Youzhen didn't speak, and snorted inside his nose.

Seeing the emperor's attitude, Yang Sichang was much more relieved, if the cabinet ministers all understood like this, it would be okay if the cabinet chief assistant didn't do it, everyone said that after the Houjin Tartars surrendered, they tried to weaken their strength, but they didn't put forward a practical way, which is equivalent to not saying, that is, there was no way at all, in this case, once the peace was negotiated, the burden was still on him, the head of the cabinet, and when the time came, I couldn't think of a way, so that the Houjin Tartars got a breather, and the strength grew again, I'm afraid it's not as simple as resigning as the head of the cabinet.

So Yang Sichang had to finish all his words, even though there was little hope of turning the situation around.

"As the first assistant of the cabinet, the minister once specialized in the study of the Houjin Tartars, the study of Huang Taiji, the minister found a very strange situation, when Nurhachi rebelled, he was very unkind to the people of my Ming Dynasty, burning, killing and looting, doing everything, and even taking the way of slaughtering the city, after Nurhachi's death, Huang Taiji also adopted such a strategy at the beginning."

"If the Houjin Tartars always use such strategies, the ministers are not nervous, but the people of my Ming Dynasty suffered, but then Huang Taiji changed his strategy, began to prohibit the Houjin Tartars from burning and looting, and began to envelop the hearts of my Ming people, Huang Taiji also launched the imperial examination in Houjin, and began to envelop the Junjie among my Han people, what is even more disturbing is that Huang Taiji is particularly generous to the traitors who took refuge in the past to my Ming Dynasty, seeing these situations, the minister thinks that Huang Taiji has great ambitions."

"As for the development of Houjin over the years, the minister said before, I don't want to repeat it."

"The reason why the minister has repeatedly emphasized these aspects is that he thought of it, according to Huang Taiji's approach, will he easily surrender to my Daming, even if the court agrees to the peace talks of the Houjin Tartars this time, and temporarily restricts the Houjin Tartars, can it guarantee the long-term, just now Lord Zhou, Lord Chen and Lord Qian have all said that the imperial court should find a way, after the surrender of the Houjin Tartars, find a way to weaken the strength of the Houjin Tartars, and don't meet each other, but unfortunately the minister has thought about it for a long time and has not thought of any good way."

"If the method of civil governance can be adopted, the minister thinks that he will be able to surrender the Houjin Tartar a long time ago, but after so many years, my Ming court always relies on conquest to be able to exterminate the vitality of the Houjin Tartar."

"The minister remembers the attitude of the court towards the Liukou, and it used to be mainly appeased, and the minister's father once strongly advocated the appeasement of the Liukou, but what was the final result, there was no effect at all, when the Liukou first started to make the law, there was no ambition, nothing more than thinking about glory and wealth, the leaders of those Liukou, once they had an army in their hands, began to spend all their time drinking and drinking, and began to enjoy, it is said that such a non-ambitious Liukou can be appeased, but the strategy of the imperial court to appease has repeatedly failed, what is this for, the minister thinks, This is because the appetite of the rogues is too great, and the court can not be satisfied, and it can even be said that in the process of rebellion, the ambitions of the rogues have gradually grown, and the requirements have become higher, touching the fundamental interests of our Ming court. ”

"Liukou is still like this, not to mention Huang Taiji, the imperial court has failed to recruit Huang Taiji, can you recruit Huang Taiji, Huang Taiji's ambition is very obvious, the establishment of the Qing Dynasty, the subjugation of the Mongolian steppe tribes, the formation of the Manchu Eight Banners, the Mongolian Eight Banners and the Han Eight Banners, step by step encroached on the territory of my Ming Dynasty, repeatedly entered the customs and plundered, and brutalized my Ming people, and this time Huang Taiji's so-called submission, according to the minister's opinion, did not put forward much substance at all."

"What the court is most worried about is the strength of the Houjin, that is, those Houjin Tartars, as for the Huang Taiji to go to the emperor, the court did not recognize the Qing Dynasty, whether the Huang Taiji removed the emperor is not a condition at all, in addition, the emperor Taiji said that he let his son come to the court as a hostage, which is even more insignificant, put a son here, let the court believe him, ignore him, this kind of deal, is really cost-effective."

"The key places mentioned by the minister, Huang Taiji did not touch on any of them, how to deal with the Manchu Eight Banners, the Eight Banners of Mongolia and the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, whether to stay in Houjin, or dissolve on the spot, or to submit to my Ming court, become the army of my Ming Dynasty, what to do with Shenyang and many other places occupied, whether to withdraw and return to the previous place, since the establishment of Jianzhou Wei is restored, whether to let the imperial court send troops, preside over the affairs of Jianzhou Wei, and govern Jianzhou Wei, these things, the minister thinks that is the key."

"The minister dared to say, these conditions, I'm afraid that Huang Taiji will not agree to any of them, and will try to shirk it, of course, the minister may also be unfounded, maybe Huang Taiji will agree to all the conditions." ……

Zhu Youzhen's face is very ugly, he is clear about what Yang Sichang said, but now the situation is different, Su Tiancheng is already a huge threat, at this time, the Houjin Tartar can be put forward to bow down, and the court can remove Su Tiancheng's military power, and he can slowly weaken Su Tiancheng's strength, as for giving the Houjin Tartar time to breathe, that is, giving the court time to breathe, such a simple truth, Yang Sichang should understand.

Just when Yang Sichang made a generous statement, Zhu Youzhen had doubts in his heart, for what Yang Sichang understood these truths, but gritted his teeth and insisted, could it be that there was a connection with Su Tiancheng, could it be that he secretly defended Su Tiancheng, if there were such signs, Zhu Youzhen would definitely not be able to tolerate it.

Letting go of Zhu Xianxuan before, Zhu Youzhen regretted it a little, and lost the best move to control Su Tiancheng, if the envoy of Houjin Tartar came to the capital earlier, he would never let Zhu Xianxuan go, and there was no need to make that will, and made the contradiction public, at that time, Yang Sichang was in favor of letting Zhu Xianxuan go.

After Yang Sichang finished speaking, Zhu Youzhen spoke expressionlessly.

"What Yang Aiqing said is reasonable, but I think that the Houjin Tartars can really bow down to the ministers, and I still want to give people a chance, this matter, I have already decided, agree to the peace of the Houjin Tartars, such things, don't discuss them again in the future."

When Yang Sichang left the Heart Cultivation Palace, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart, but he would never have thought that because of his previous speech, he had been suspected by the emperor, and another storm was coming soon, and this storm was directly aimed at him.
