Obviously, after receiving the imperial order, the ministers of the ministry made full preparations, closely followed the testament of Emperor Taizu, quoted scriptures, and moved them to reason, which well resolved the core argument of the officials that 'going to Jinling lightly and violating the ancestral system'. On the other hand, after all, the officials lacked the heat, and they thought that they had the chance to win, so they were obviously not fully prepared, and they were steadily suppressed by the other party in terms of reason.

However, debate is like a quarrel, it is never said that whoever has a reason will have the upper hand, and if there is no reason, it can be used to force words, and no matter how reasonable the other party is, it can also be regarded as a deaf ear, because although the officials are at a disadvantage in the arguments, their voices are far higher than those of the ministers of the ministry, and their voices are far stronger than those of the ministers, and in the ears of the layman, they can steadily suppress the old people on the other side......

The prince on the tower of the city gate, but his heart gradually cooled, in fact, he knew that no matter what the outcome of today's debate was, it could not change the fact that the relocation of the capital was a foregone conclusion. The Yongle Emperor, who was sitting on the dragon chair with a tepid expression, just wanted to use this way to show that he was a Ming Jun who listened to him and to reduce the resentment of his courtiers......

Even if he disagrees with his father, the crown prince has to admit that the Yongle Emperor, who has calmed down, is still the most skilled politician in the world. After the fire in the three major halls, such a serious disaster that shook the community, Zhu Di's crisis handling was as perfect as a textbook!

First of all, it is a sin against oneself. If such a thing does not happen, the emperor must issue an edict to punish himself, but Zhu Di has obviously realized that all kinds of incidents before have accumulated great dissatisfaction between the government and the opposition. Some of this dissatisfaction is directed at the imperial court, and some are simply directed at him, the emperor, no matter which, in the final analysis, will converge on the high throne and crush the seemingly indestructible regime. It is precisely because of this that Zhu Di chose to issue an edict to himself, and he wanted to use this crisis to vent the emotions between the government and the opposition and ease the contradictions in all aspects.

Secondly, it is the timing of the issuance of the edict of guilt. If the edict is issued after the fire, the first time to issue the edict, it will undoubtedly make the world believe that this fire is God's punishment for the emperor, thinking that the emperor has provoked the anger of heaven and people! Far from alleviating the contradictions, this will make the courtiers more and more disrespectful to the emperor, and then intensify and take advantage of the situation to force the emperor into an even more embarrassing situation. Those careerists lurking between the government and the opposition will also be ready to move......

Therefore, the emperor did not issue an edict immediately, but waited for two days, and only after the investigation of the case was clear and it was determined that it was the arson of the White Lotus Sect, he issued the edict on the third day, so that it became a noble attitude of 'although it is not my responsibility, but I still blame myself', and suddenly put the situation that was somewhat out of control back in his hands. The emperor first let people speak freely, but he killed Xiao Yi, the bold and outspoken head of the Ministry of Rites, firstly, to deter those opponents and let them weigh their heads before saying anything. The second is to limit the number of people who are discussing the relocation of the capital to the scope of speech officials. If you either dare to talk nonsense, or you are arguing about moving the capital, then Xiao Yi's fate is a lesson from the past!

This hand-to-hand salary is very spicy. Of the thousands of officials who were kneeling outside the palace gate, there were now less than 200 of them, and they were held in the form of debates at designated places and times. In this way, all discussions are within a controllable range, and the high-ranking officials of the ministry and hall cannot convince the officials that it doesn't matter, and if it doesn't work in one day, it will take two days, and if it doesn't work in two days, it will be three days, and in this way, it will slowly grind down day by day, and everyone's fire will be worn out, and the voice of opposition will gradually disappear.......

Everything in the capital has nothing to do with Wang Xian for the time being. On the day of the debate in the rain, he left Beijing and went south to the Shandong border under the escort of Lingxiao, Gu Xiaolian, Zhou Yong, Shi Wan, Deng Xiaoxian, Hu Sandao, and two hundred brocade guards......

At this time, it has been handed over in February, the river is open, the wicker is green, the peach and plum are picturesque, and the spring is like wine. This made Lingxiao, who had been stuffy in the bare city of Beijing for a winter, extraordinarily happy, riding a horse and galloping in front, bursting with laughter and singing, adding a bit of joy to the large army that followed behind.

'Mu Mu is blowing the breeze and blowing my clothes. The green robe is like spring grass, and the long strips are comfortable with the wind. On the beam of Dengjin, the clothes look at what they think. Anderson holds the pillar letter, and the sun is bright for a period of ......'

Wang Xian listened intently to Lingxiao's singing, and went back to five or six years ago in a trance. When I first saw her on the river, in a blink of an eye, the former girl had grown up, and people had to sigh that the years were like knives. Gu Xiaolian, who was following aside, saw Wang Xian sighing softly, and said like a flower: "The official is thinking about the future of Sister Lingxiao?" ”

"Yes." Wang Xian nodded, Gu Xiaolian was thoughtful and wholeheartedly for his sake, many times, Wang Xian regarded her as a military advisor. "She's already a big girl, and she always follows me like this, it's really unreasonable." He looked left and right, and saw that everyone was hiding away with interest, so he asked Gu Xiaolian, "What do you say I should do?" ”

"The concubine wants to ask first, my lord......" Gu Xiaolian was tactful, and swept Lingxiao with his afterglow.

"Absolutely not." Wang Xian shook his head categorically and said, "For so many years, I have long regarded her as my own sister......

"That's easy," Gu Xiaolian smiled slightly: "Just let it be." ”

"Go with the flow?" Wang Xian was stunned for a moment, and said in a very unhappy tone: "How can it be done, ordinary girls, so many of them are mothers!" How long will it be delayed? Wang Xian's thinking has been completely assimilated by the times, although Lingxiao is not yet in her twenties, he feels that she is about to be unable to marry.

"That's what the officials said." Gu Xiaolian covered her smile and said, "But the question is, is Lingxiao a girl from an ordinary family?" ”

"Of course not, but girls have to marry after all." Wang Xian said with a sense of responsibility: "Sun Zhenren and Xianyun entrusted her to me, and I have to take responsibility." ”

"There is a problem with the official's words," Gu Xiaolian laughed softly: "Sun Zhenren is Lingxiao's grandfather, Xianyun is Lingxiao's brother, this kind of life event, they should be in a hurry." ”

"Here's the problem, they're just not in a hurry! How do you say? Wang Xian said helplessly: "It's not in tune, it's too out of tune......

"Sun Zhenren is the leader of Taoism in the world, and the emperor is the national teacher, if you hear the officials evaluate you like this, will your nose be crooked?" Gu Xiaolian giggled, and after laughing, she said softly to Wang Xian: "They are Taoists, Taoism is natural, Sun Zhenren and Xianyun want to let Lingxiao girls experience a period of red dust freely." ”

"It seems to be true...... Wang Xian obviously listened, and his tone was not so anxious: "Then what if this girl is delayed?" ”

"Everything has a fate, where a person goes in the future and what the outcome will be, it is all predestined." Gu Xiaolian replied a little distracted.

"This is the Buddhist family again," Wang Xian's heart knot was untied, and he couldn't help but laugh: "Little pity on you." ”

"The concubine was originally a disciple of the Buddhist family...... Gu Xiaolian glanced at Wang Xian coquettishly, and said in a soft voice: "It's just that I unfortunately met the demon star in your life......"

"Hehe......" Half of Wang Xian's body is crispy, this charming white lotus demon girl provokes people, and even the gods can't stop it.

The two were talking and laughing, and smoke and dust rose from the official road in the south, and several horses galloped over. The guards immediately became nervous, and the originally loose formation turned into a defensive formation in an instant. But when they saw the people coming, they relaxed again......

When the number of flying horses approached, the knights immediately grabbed the reins of the horses, turned over and dismounted, and knelt in front of Wang Xian and the others. The leader was a young man with an unremarkable appearance and an ordinary figure, and said in a deep voice: "Zhou Dare, a thousand households in Jinyi Weishan, came to greet the governor and meet the governor!" ”

"Haha, Zhou Kang, hurry up!" Wang Xian's love for his confidants has always been more casual, beckoning Zhou Dare to get on the horse, walking with him, and Gu Xiao followed behind with interest.

Wang Xian looked at Zhou Dare and said with a smile: "I have lost a lot of weight, it seems that I have suffered a lot this time." "Jinyiwei has thousands of households in all provinces, and after Wang Xian took office, he took care of the north and south towns in Beijing, so he naturally wanted to use the knife against the thousands of households in the provinces, clean up the old party of Jigang, and replace it with his own people. Shandong is Ji Gang's hometown, and he was naturally Ji Gang's henchmen up and down before, and he was intertwined with local forces, and it was the most difficult province to deal with.

The thousand households sent by Wang Xian before spent a year, and all their energy was focused on internal cleanup, and as for the intelligence collection in the jurisdiction, they naturally had to be put in the back row. However, in the winter of last year, Wang Xian and the prince paid a private visit, and saw the dangerous scene of white lotus everywhere and imminent civil unrest, so they naturally wanted to ask him to ask clearly, but the thousand households did not know very well, and some of the situations were not even as much as Wang Xian and the prince, so that Wang Xian lost face in front of the prince, and the official hat of the thousand households naturally could not be kept......

As for the successor, Wang Xian, after careful consideration, decided to let Zhou dare to take on this important responsibility. Zhou Dang is the best of the gang of fast catchers cultivated by Zhou Xin, shrewd, strong, loyal and keen, and followed Wang Xian to fight in the south and the north, and never let him down. Changing generals on the spot is actually a big taboo, but Wang Xian has to do it! Zhou Dang was ordered to be in danger, and he didn't come to Jinan for a long time, so he had to unify the internal affairs and focus his main energy on the monitoring of the White Lotus Sect. The Lantern Festival's 'Heavenly Fire Burning the Three Great Palaces' made him feel extremely pressured, and he felt that he couldn't hold on anymore. At this time, when I saw my own adult, I felt that I could breathe freely again...... Finally, a tall one is here, so you don't have to carry it yourself.

Seeing the incomparably complicated expression on Zhou Dang's face, Wang Xian knew how tormented this guy had been before, patted him on the shoulder, changed the topic first, and said with a smile: "Unexpectedly, you actually ran to the Hebei border to greet him." ”

"No, it won't work," Zhou Dare calmed down, and said with a wry smile: "Shandong's capital, cloth, and press the three directors are already waiting for your lordship at the provincial border!" ”
