Chapter 201: Imperial Court
There was a huge debate on the issue of the Ming Dynasty being Liaodong.
Among them, a group of ministers led by Yuan Chonghuan and even Sun Chengzong believed that to defend Liaodong, the Liao people should be the ones who defended Liao territory.
The people led by Xiong Tingbi believed that the Liao people involved too many benefits in Liaodong, so the Liao people were not reliable and the influence of the Liao people should be removed.
Of course, the Liao people here do not refer to the people of Liaodong, but the gentry of Liaodong.
To put it bluntly, Yuan Chonghuan and Sun Chengzong meant to win over gentry, grant them official positions, and give them full trust to curb the founding of slaves.
Xiong Tingbi was completely different because as the Jiannu people continued to invade cities and land, they also began to recruit Liao gentry, which made many Liao people stand on both sides. After all, they made them resolutely fight against Jiannu, but their own land was still occupied by Jiannu people. Once the Jiannu people began to recruit, their will to resist was no longer firm.
Of course, with Xiong Tingbi's conviction, the court finally decided to follow the strategy of the Liao people defending the Liao territory.
A large number of Liao gentry were granted various official positions, allowing them to recruit village warriors, and even provide various financial and grain subsidies. The Liaodong Governor's yamen was filled with people from various gentry backgrounds, giving advice and formulating strategies for them.
Many strategies formulated by the Ministry of War take the Liao people very seriously, so what Wang Xiong said is not unreasonable. The court has paid so much, but you took away such righteous people directly. Now I don’t know whether it is death or life. So... Is the Liao people still going to defend the national policy of Liao territory?
If Emperor Tianqi did not treat it carefully, do you believe that all the Liao people would join Jiannu?
Li Zhenglong's resume is obviously very perfect. Wang Xiong is confident that he dares to protect him like this.
"Your Majesty, you must release Li Zhenglong immediately, and then... let Zhang Jingyi compensate for the losses."
"Don't he like to be a county magistrate after he has been laid off his post as a hundred households? Let him be his county magistrate."
At this time, Chengyibo and others also started to make trouble.
Emperor Tianqi was a little annoyed and said, "Okay, what a big deal, you have to shout and kill."
When Master Li Kongzhao heard this, he wanted to bow his breath and said, "Your Majesty, that's not what he said. My friend... was beaten like that. What a big deal?"
Emperor Tianqi looked at Li Kongzhao with a bruised nose and a swollen face and was speechless for a moment.
But at this moment, an eunuch came in and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
Emperor Aoki looked up and said impatiently: "What happened again?"
"Your Highness Changsheng...he...he..."
"What?" Before the eunuch could continue to say this, Emperor Tianqi was so scared that his face was tragic, and suddenly he said, "What's wrong with him?"
"Your Highness Changsheng doesn't feel good to eat milk today, and he always gets convulsive when sleeping..."
Emperor Tianqi suddenly felt dizzy, his eyes turned black, and he said in panic: "Where is the imperial doctor? Have you ever seen it?"
"I went to invite you, but there is no conclusion yet, but... it's just that Concubine Zhang..."
Emperor Apocalypse said anxiously: "What did she say?"
"Empress Zhang said that it may be that His Highness Changsheng entered the palace and had never seen his uncle. He missed him very much, so he was unwilling to eat and couldn't sleep at night."
Emperor Apocalypse: “…”
As a parenting expert, Emperor Tianqi, he suspected that Concubine Zhang was lying to him. He knew nothing about such a young child. He didn't even know who his father was. He knew where his uncle was.
but……
These words obviously had a great effect.
Emperor Aoki calmed down and waved his hand and said, "You go down."
So he looked at the crying ministers calmly: "I know what's going on. Be harmonious among ministers. Don't always shout for beating and killing, hitting people by mistake, and sealing shop by mistake, and taking ten thousand steps back. Even if you take someone by mistake, so what? What do you want to do? Do you want me to kill Zhang Jingyi? This is what you want?"
Wang Xiong and Li Kongzhao felt that His Majesty's words were a bit unreasonable.
Emperor Tianqi looked at Wei Zhongxian and said, "Parent Wei, what do you think?"
Wei Zhongxian actually knew that his son had been beaten and was already panicked.
He also pointed at Wei Liangqing to pass on the family lineage to the old Wei family. He was confused for a moment. When he heard Emperor Tianqi ask, he shouted, but looked at Emperor Tianqi bini.
Emperor Tianqi said angrily: "I ask what do you think?"
Wei Zhongxian didn't listen to a word just now, and asked him what he thought?
He calmed down and said carefully: "So what does Your Majesty think?"
"I'm asking you." Emperor Aoki gritted his teeth.
Wei Zhongxian said: "I think...this...this...this...everything should be discussed for a long time. The ancients said..."
Emperor Tianqi interrupted him: "Forget it, you don't have to say it, I will ask you, did Li Zhenglong do it in detail?"
Wang Xiong quickly swears: "Your Majesty, is it right?"
"What's this?"
Wang Xiong said: "I said he is because as long as the person falls into the hands of the Jinyiwei, it is not what the Jinyiwei says? I said no, because I know this person, who is loyal and courageous, and is loyal to the court. Whenever I mention the Jiannu people, I grit my teeth and wish I could eat raw meat!"
"If such people are meticulous, then I will not have loyal ministers in the Ming Dynasty. Please release Li Zhenglong immediately. As for Zhang Baihu, he is eager to make contributions, and I can understand it. But what should I do if I frame the loyal and kind people like this?"
Seeing that Wang Xiong was so serious, Emperor Tianqi was not willing to give in to the concubine, Cheng Yi Bo, and the Ministry of War. He didn't know how to appease him!
People... must not be let go easily. After all, I don’t doubt people, so I don’t doubt people! And maybe it’s really a detailed work?
At this moment, Wei Zhongxian said: "Your Majesty, why not go to the hundred households to see it?"
Emperor Apocalypse: “…”
Wei Zhongxian was really anxious. He had to find a way to see his son in order to be at ease!
Zhang Jingyi's dog is lacking in great virtue. If you have anything to do, come to us. Can't we crush you like a grasshopper with one finger? What a good man to fool our son!
As soon as Wei Zhongxian said this, Wang Xiong hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, go in person. I am afraid that the Jinyiwei will be scolded. Then..."
In the past, Emperor Aoki was going out, so everyone insisted on stopping him.
Today, everyone encouraged him to go out, which was also considered as the sun hitting the west.
Emperor Tianqi had to reluctantly say: "It's good, but now Changsheng's health is not good, I..."
"Your Majesty, Your Highness Changsheng knows that Your Majesty is going to see his uncle, so Your Highness will be at ease." Wei Zhongxian said.
Emperor Aoki had no choice but to say, "Is that so? OK."
At this time, Wei Zhongxian finally breathed a sigh of relief and could finally meet his son immediately.
Wang Xiong also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as His Majesty goes, Zhang Jingyi will not be able to do the punishment. If he doesn't do it, it depends on what he does.
Take a step back and say that even if Li Zhenglong is a detailed work, now everyone is involved with Li Zhenglong so deeply, can you stand by and watch? Let’s talk about him, one of his concubines was given to him by Li Zhenglong! Li Zhenglong has really become a rebellious, and he is afraid he will follow him to bury him.
He is really not afraid of doing things carefully. As long as he does not act, Li Zhenglong is also a smart person. He knows that there will naturally be someone outside who will try his best to protect him. As long as he bites him to death, he will not be able to deal with Li Zhenglong! And he, Zhang Jingyi, is afraid that he will not be able to take care of him at that time.
What is wrong with black and white? Wang Xiong felt in his heart that only those ignorant people would divide loyalty and treacherous people. As long as he is a minister of the Ministry of War, no matter who he is, aren’t they all good people in front of him? Which one is not smiling and respectful everywhere, thinking about what he thinks, and worrying about what he is anxious about?

Shunzhen Palace.
At this time, an eunuch was hurried into the bedroom here, and then he heard the cry of His Highness Changsheng.
As soon as he entered, he saw Concubine Zhang holding the child, patting her gently with one hand, and whispered: "Don't cry, don't cry, Changsheng won't cry, uncle will come tomorrow, uncle will show you a monkey show tomorrow."
When he saw the eunuch coming in, Concubine Zhang said, "What, have you reported to Your Majesty?"
"It's reported."
Concubine Zhang nodded, and did not ask His Majesty what his subsequent reaction was. She just said lightly: "Okay, that's your fault."
The eunuch knelt down and said, "Why dare I call myself a laborer when I serve the empress? This is what I should do."
Concubine Zhang pursed her lips and said with a smile: "After that being said, serving is the official, and you have a private relationship. I was in this palace for the first time and I didn't have anything to reward you, but... My third brother was afraid that I would not have a good life in the palace a few days ago, so he sent some golden leaves. Meier, go and get a leaf."
After hearing this, the female official nodded and left slowly.
The eunuch was flattered and said, "Qingpingbo is so bold."
Concubine Zhang just smiled and continued to tease Changsheng.
Changsheng pouted, looking unhappy, and opened his mouth and wanted to cry again, but Concubine Zhang gently patted his back, as if he had made him feel more comfortable, so he yawned. In his cradle, he crawled into Concubine Zhang's arms again, struggled a few times, and then snored again.
…………
Emperor Tianqi and his group rushed to Qingpingfang.
Emperor Tianqi has always been familiar with this place. This place is the center of Xinxian and it looks very good.
But I heard that... the Xinxian County Government may be relocated, but I don’t know whether it is true or false.
Emperor Tianqi usually does not interfere with the matter in Xinxian County, and only by Zhang Jingyi's nature is.
Emperor Tianqi's money is much better than Chongzhen in history. He can tell who is boasting, but once he decides to appoint who he will never be suspicious.
At this time, there were no people outside Xinxian County. Emperor Tianqi came out in a concealed manner and did not bring many people. Naturally, no one was allowed to report first.
