Chapter 98: Ke Chuan Gong Ye, Fragmentation and Disintegration(1/2)

The emperor's words were completely beyond Wang Chonggu's expectations and also made him confused.

Enter the cabinet!?What does the emperor mean?

Trustworthy?

Wish it?

play off?

Wang Chonggu was inexplicably in his mood, intertwined with complex emotions such as surprises, surprises, vigilance, and exploration.

His thoughts were flying and he racked his brains, but because he didn't know much about the emperor, he was not sure.

Wang Chonggu came to his senses a little and wanted to speak but stopped - Japan was in a dilemma these days, and before the matter came to an end, another even more difficult thing happened.

He was so helpless that he was pulled into the hall by the emperor.

Zhu Yijun looked at Wang Chonggu's expression and body movements without any trace. Seeing that his expression was still a little wary, he knew it.

He didn't give Wang Chonggu a chance to answer, and kept saying: "Yang Qing has been driven by the three dynasties for more than 40 years. He is my confidant minister of the Ming Dynasty. Although I have tried to keep it several times, no one can disobey the Spring and Autumn Period."

"But, Yang Qing went to the generals and ministers, and was a civil and military strategist, and was the one who relied on the world to be safe. In this unity, there was no such high-level official in the cabinet and familiar with military affairs."

He looked at Wang Chonggu: "I tossed and turned last night, and after thinking about it, I thought of Wang Qing! I'm afraid there is no more suitable person to take over the military affairs of the cabinet."

As he said that, he asked the eunuch to give Wang Chonggu a seat and let him eat with him.

He picked up a bowl of Tremella Soup and ate it directly with Gui Shunzhai's pastry.

Wang Chonggu was silent for a while, but did not sit down, and slowly spoke: "Your Majesty, the person who is now in charge of cabinet affairs on behalf of Mr. Yang is my nephew."

"Your Majesty has already been kind to you when you are in court at the same time. You have not avoided suspicion. How can you have any extravagant hopes to let Your Majesty bear the reputation of being too doting?"

It is false to say that you are not moved.

After all, he is the auxiliary minister of the cabinet and the head of all officials, and no minister can remain indifferent.

His grandfather Wang Xin was just learning from the right place, while his father Wang Yao was a low-ranking businessman. It was not until his generation that he could finally shine on his family and enjoy the county annals.

What is placed in front of him now is the pinnacle of his ministers and the ultimate glorious ancestors.

Xuan Ma worships the minister!

But Wang Chonggu was not confused and agreed directly - although he had been in the frontier for a long time, Wang Chonggu's most basic qualities were still not lost.

The fact that nephew and uncle entered the cabinet at the same time must inevitably cause suspicion.

Even if the emperor trusts it, the courtiers will be impeached like crazy.

Therefore, the emperor could not let their nephews and uncles enter the cabinet together no matter what.

He said this, just to retreat as an advance, and to listen to the emperor's attitude - the emperor raised himself high and sent him to the cabinet. It is hard not to think that he was playing the method of "two peaches and killing three soldiers".

Do you really need him, or do you want to use this to provoke the Jin people and throw them away after using it?

After Zhu Yijun swallowed the food, he said, "Don't mention your nephew, even Yuan Fu, Gao Ge Lao, Lu Ge Lao, etc., have never governed the local area and the governor has passed the Jiubian."

"Now I need an important official who understands local affairs and understands the dangers of the border towns. For me, I can draw on the nine border military affairs in the cabinet."

"Who can anyone do this except Wang Qing?"

He didn't go to take over the slightest bit of Wang Chong's ancient words, and what uncles and nephews entered the cabinet together? There was nothing to do!

Speaking of these people from the Jin Party, Zhang Siwei is the most selfish and cunning.

It would be fine if you can clearly mark prices for big merchants and write epitaphs.

It is his personal nature to accept bribes and do things to others.

Promote the township party and support Shanxi merchants to embezzle state-owned assets.

However, after hearing about his actions in history, almost no disgust arises.

At that time, when Zhang Juzheng was in power, Zhang Siwei flattered him first. After Zhang Juzheng died, he immediately counterattacked and was aware of his behavior.

That's fine. If Zhang Xinpi can continue to innovate after counterattack, it may be a character.

But the man asked the new law to be abolished on the grounds that the gentry had suffered too much damage, which made them all "lost their desire to live happily".

Then he stopped clearing the land and abolished the examination method, restored the two-tax system, etc.

How can such a person who only has selfishness and no ideals and beliefs enter the cabinet?

Zhu Yijun has opened his eyes, but he still lets such people enter the cabinet. Isn’t that deliberately making him feel uncomfortable?

In comparison, Wang Chonggu still has some help.

Zhu Yijun read all the memorials during the Longqing period of Wang Chonggu.

Whether it is the governor of Ningxia or the governor of Shaanxi, at least Wang Chonggu is still conscientious in his job.

Especially Wang Chonggu's positive attitude towards Altan's tribute was revealed, when Hetao Ji Neng was reluctant to give him tribute, Wang Zhigao was reluctant to push and resist, and showed the former's ability.

Although he has selfish intentions, he is also a useful person.

The emperor's words were reasonable, and Wang Chonggu could not find any fault.

Compared to his nephew, Wang Chonggu is indeed more suitable to take over Yang Bo's position.

Just talking about the understanding of the enemy's enemy on the nine borders, it is not comparable to others, not to mention that the Tuman Khan has recently invaded the border, and the emperor wants to rectify the military preparations, etc.

The most important thing is that my nephew is still young!

This may be the last chance for my career!

The only thing worth worrying about is that this may be detrimental to the unity of the Jin people.

If I met the emperor, I would squeeze my nephew away and enter the cabinet by myself. How would I think about this kind of thing in the eyes of the villagers and my own marriage?

Moreover, my nephew is not a good-looking person. What if he gets resentful?

Wang Chonggu did not answer easily, but instead began to think about it.

Zhu Yijun waited patiently, but he did not forget to signal Wang Chonggu to sit down and have breakfast together.

He is naturally very confident.

After all, Xuanma was the prime minister, and few ministers could withstand this temptation.

What's more, the relationship between uncle and nephew is not very close.

This kind of traders all use interests as an alliance, and relatives are at most considered as a hub.

Zhang Siwei's fourth brother Zhang Sixiang first married the daughter of the merchant Wang family. Less than a month after Wang's death, Zhang Sixiang married the daughter of the more prominent merchant Fan family.

Wang Chonggu's brother Wang Chongyi was a Changlu salt merchant. Because he had business disagreements with Chen Tingzhen, his eldest sister's husband, and he also broke up and sued him in the yamen.

Nephew and uncle? If you can get promoted and make money, I don’t know how many people would rather die with your wife than care about your nephew and uncle.

Seeing that Wang Chonggu was still hesitating, Zhu Yijun added another fire: "Nine-side Chou Gu, Xuanda, Shanxi has Altan tribes, Ji Neng tribes, Ji Liao has Tuman tribes and Huangtai Ji Branch."

"Although the Western Lu claimed to be a sub-money, the dogs and sheep were deceiving, it was unpredictable."

"The scoundrels still live in the West Sea, but they are afraid that they will return east in spring and pass through the mainland to follow the plan of false paths."

"The Eastern Barbarians have repeatedly seen the border. Dong Huli, Chang Ang, and others have not gained profit for a long time. If the pigs are in trouble, it is better to be prevented early."

"Wang Qing, I have also heard of your long-cherished wish, to destroy the enemy and stabilize the nine borders. Now that the country is in trouble, how can you bear to refuse?"

People are complicated, and Wang Chonggu is no exception.

Even if he is selfish, he cannot deny his desire to quell the enemy.

Wang Chonggu was already a little moved at this time.

But hesitated and said: "Your Majesty, I am the Minister of War. I mean the preparation of military equipment. It is my duty to do it. I may not need to enter the cabinet."

"Besides, I just entered the capital and decided to break the central secret, and it may not be as good as Zhang Siwei. I'm afraid the court officials will be surprised."

Zhu Yijun nodded.

He naturally understood Wang Chonggu’s concerns.

I just entered Beijing, but the foundation was still unstable, and the kindness I gave in the Jin Party was not as good as Zhang Siwei.

This is not because I am afraid of surprise from the court officials, but because I am afraid of causing trouble within the Jin party, which will not lose the rice and damage the foundation of the village party.

Zhu Yijun said nothing: "You have also said that the Ministry of War refers to the painting of military preparations, and the cabinet is the key to making decisions. How can it be equivalent to it?"

"At that time, you can make a decision in the cabinet, and the Ministry of War will take over with Shi Maohua, and cooperate with Wang Qing."

This is for Wang Chonggu to show kindness.

The Ministry of War was under the control of these people, so he didn't care about upgrading Shi Maohua to another level.

As long as you can block Zhang Siwei from the cabinet and then turn Wang Chonggu into your own use, it will be worth it.

Wang Chonggu nodded immediately when he heard the strings.

"As for the court officials' surprise, there is no need to mention it."

"Wang Qing, I will tell you bluntly."

"As long as you enter the cabinet, don't be afraid of impeachment by the censors. The court officials are surprised by this. I will make the decision!"
