Wang Tong said impassionedly, and he was very sure, but the side hall was quiet, except for Zhao Jinliang who looked and looked on the left, the rest of the people were pondering. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Emperor Wanli and Zhang Cheng and Zou Yi were quite friendly with Wang Tong, but at such a status, personal relationship is one thing, and the overall situation of the world is another.

What Wang Tong said is not much false, there is no problem in the grand strategy, this premise has been decided, and the next thing is Wang Tong and the Huwei Army, the Huwei Army has been established for less than six years, and there is very little involvement in all aspects, and the same is true for Wang Tong, he has not been in command for ten years from the lowest Jinyi Guard Captain to the current commander, except for the inner court, he has nothing to do with the outside court.

Such a lonely minister and a lone army go to the outside of the Saiwai, if they win, they will naturally be happy, if they do not win, then the court will not suffer any losses, and even the responsibility of making a motion does not need to be borne.

After the current Wanli Emperor is in power, Wang Tong's loyalty and support are not indispensable, several bigwigs present, Zhang Cheng, Zou Yi, and even Zhao Jinliang, have now gained a firm foothold in the palace, whether there is Wang Tong as an ally or not, it will not change their status quo.

To put it meanly, if Wang Tong is not there, the huge foundation he left behind will give benefits to these people, naturally this is just a heart-wrenching word, and how everyone in the side hall thinks about it will naturally not be said explicitly, but after being quiet for a while, everyone's eyes turned to Emperor Wanli.

In the past, when Wang Tong knelt on the ground, Emperor Wanli would not let him kneel for too long, and would say, "Do something kneeling, stand up and reply", but today he did not say this, because the emperor fell into deep thought.

Everyone knows that the emperor is weighing the pros and cons, and everyone is waiting for this result, but no matter how the others weigh it, they can come to a conclusion that the advantages of sending troops out outweigh the disadvantages, and it is far greater.

"Stand up."

Emperor Wanli said in a muffled voice, his hand was on his knee and moved to the armrest, back and forth several times, after Wang Tong stood up, Emperor Wanli still muttered there for a long time, and after a while he said in a muffled voice:

"Even if it's not a war to pour the country, it's troublesome to provoke the border, marching and fighting, the cabinet, the military department, the household department, Datong Town and even Xuanfu and Yulin and other towns have to move, I'm afraid the court can't pass, just noisy, I don't know how long it will be noisy, what's more troublesome is that things can't be done, I'm afraid that in the end, you will have to get involved."

Emperor Wanli said this, everyone in the palace knew that there was a conclusion, the Son of Heaven did not say that there was anything wrong with this battle, but said, what was wrong with the war, that is, the general direction agreed to Wang Tong's consideration, and now it is the details to consider, Zhang Cheng and Zou Yi exchanged glances, and looked at Zhang Whale again, the three of them bowed their heads slightly, since Wang Tong took the initiative to ask for battle, and the Son of Heaven had such an attitude, everyone still should not speak.

"Your Majesty doesn't have to worry, this matter is not in a hurry at this time, it is also possible within a year or two, although the soldiers will be slack off in peacetime, but there is no need to worry about this within three years, in these three years, you can always find an opportunity, and then ask Your Majesty to agree."

Emperor Wanli nodded slowly, there was nothing in the side hall for a while, and it was quiet for a while, and Emperor Wanli pointed to it:

"What is discussed today, don't spread it, otherwise those mouthy Qingliu will definitely stare at this matter and not stop"

Everyone bowed down together to receive the order, and there was nothing to say at this time, Emperor Wanli returned to the palace, Wang Tong also said goodbye and left, Zhang Cheng naturally went to accompany Emperor Wanli, Zhang Whale went to the duty room of the celebrant supervisor, but Zou Yi followed.

The little eunuch who led Wang Tong out knew what kind of character Wang Tong was, and Zou Yi's status in the palace naturally didn't need to be said.

However, Zou Yi and Wang Tong were also silent for a while, and Zou Yi spoke first:

"Brother Wang, I really don't know how to say it, now that the border is too peaceful, Qi Jiguang is willing to say such bold words, let him go, brother, why do you care so much, lead the army out of the fortress, hanging alone outside the border wall, a slight mistake is not only ruined, you can't come back when the time comes, why are you suffering?"

"Although Your Majesty asked me to wait for the secret, I'm afraid that the three of Lord Shen may not be able to keep it, and some of them have made trouble in the past few days."

Wang Tong didn't answer Zou Yi's words, just said with a smile, hearing him say this, Zou Yi didn't speak anymore, just sighed.

The Son of Heaven summoned the right person in private, not on official occasions such as court meetings, the cabinet assisted Shen Shixing, Zhang Xueyan, the secretary of the military department, and Shangli of the household department, even if they wanted to set off public opinion to attack, or target someone, they had to be scrupulous and not too blatant.

And the Wanli Emperor did not explain the source of this incident, and everyone was not easy to speculate on themselves, without the target of the attack, they could not always go toe-to-toe with the Wanli Emperor, so from the end of May to June, the Son of Heaven was so happy that the news of opening up the territory was only circulated in a very small circle, and when the ministers went to the court, they often talked about the deeds of Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who were reckless in their military efforts and great achievements, which led to national turmoil, so as to satirize.

Every time he said this, although Emperor Wanli was quite impatient, he didn't react, but he didn't understand, and everyone felt bored.

By June, the Jinyi guards who wore neat and straight clothes and armor and walked on the street in pairs had become a scene in Beijing, and outsiders would always be startled when they saw it, and then they knew that this was the rule under the feet of the Son of Heaven.

Cracking down on it so far, petty theft has been extinct from the streets and alleys, and the people who set up bureaus to deceive and burn incense and set up altars are also extinct.

The first month of cleaning provided a large number of laborers to several farms located in the north of Weibei, Tianjin, many people were idle, never did farm work, and some people were brave and ruthless, and in the past, they did not even dare to take care of the errand servants in Shuntianfu, and after this cadre was placed in the farm, he really couldn't do any farm work.

But just a month has passed, and everyone who has been arrested, no matter what identity or temperament they had before they came, they are honestly obedient and work there.

No matter how idle you are, no matter how brave and ruthless you are, in front of the soldiers of the Tianjin Weihu Army, the Security Army and the Jinyi Guard, they are just pigs and sheep, and they don't listen to discipline on weekdays, they have sticks and leather whips, and if they want to make any trouble, there are swords, and even armored cavalry will appear.

Every Zhuangzi has a fort, a three-pound cannon mounted on it, no matter what thoughts, when you see this cannon, I am afraid that you are afraid to tremble, and honestly work to atone for your sins.

Jinyiwei arrested people, Shuntianfu decided the case, there were too many people arrested, and the cases were all short and fast, and there were precedents for all kinds of crimes, as long as they were not the kind of people who had to be sentenced, they were generally served with whips and boards, and then sent to the farm to work and be detained.

Nowadays, the Jingshi teahouse and wine shop quarrel, and the street gangsters scold, there is a new word "If you are so noisy, be careful to send you to Tianjin Wei to do good deeds", which is what is said about this "good labor", the income from the work in Tianjin Wei is supplied to Tianjin Jinyi Wei and the yamen on the spot, and many yamen are ready to do this method, saving them from being detained in prison, and they will spend money to raise them, and they will have to bear the burden of raising them if they die.

The public opinion that Wang Tong has been worried about has not appeared, because now that all parties have reported to his side, it is not easy for Jingshi to incite public opinion no matter who wants to incite public opinion, the reason is very simple, originally these things are inseparable from the activities of Li Sancai and Gu Xiancheng, and the two of them are tied up, so it is naturally difficult to agitate.

However, this also made Wang Tong have a new estimate of the abilities of Li Sancai and Gu Xiancheng, two characters who are not high-quality, can actually have such great energy.

If you don't make amazing words, I'm afraid there will be no chance of promotion in this life, and there will always be people who want to speak out and get out of position.

Wei Yunzhen, the imperial history of Shanxi Province of the Metropolitan Inspection Academy, said four things in the seventh day of the first month of June, the first thing said that the use of civil and military affairs should abide by the public recommendation, civil positions such as Jiuqing, military positions such as the general army, should be promoted by many officials according to the system, the second said that the imperial examination should be fair, should not be changed because of the candidates' family and backers and the request of rich and noble people, the official of the science and road should be named and played, the children of the auxiliary ministers are Chinese, the court examination paper should be avoided according to the routine, the third thing is that the selection of Taiwan advice should be cautious, and the choice of the middle and imperial history must be selected to be talented and conductive, People who are upright and upright, practice world affairs, learn the rules of the dynasty, and are loyal and knowledgeable, the fourth is to say that the war should be cautious and not talk about the war lightly.

The first and third of these are just talking about the big truth, but the fourth thing is obviously based on recent rumors, but it is the second thing that everyone in Jingshi is concerned about.

Since Zhang Juzheng has been in power, Zhang Juzheng, Lu Tiaoyang (the second assistant at the time), Zhang Siwei, and now Shen Shixing, their sons' scores in the examination are all high school, and they are all heirlooms of poetry and books.

If the children of the powerful occupy one, they will have one less step to enter the body, which is the most unbearable thing for them.

The cabinet center did not respond to this matter, but Emperor Wanli quickly made a reply, and Wei Yunzhen "was reckless and selfish, and talked too much", demoted Jingshi, and went to Xuzhou to make a general judgment.

Now everyone's attention is not on Wang Tong's side
