Chapter 199 Observing the Government
Chapter 201 Observation of politics
The appearance of the crown prince in the morning court is not worth making a fuss. There seems to be nothing strange about this morning court, but no one dares to be careless in this morning court.
Although Mao Xiang was killed some time ago, the Jinyiwei seemed to be less powerful than before. But many people also know that it was just an illusion. The emperor was still using the Jinyiwei to supervise all officials, but those emperors were not as domineering as before.
The power is not as great as before.
The Hu Weiyong case seemed to have come to an end. There seemed to be no major case in the court, but the officials still did not dare to be careless.
The Hu Weiyong case is closer, the empty seal case is farther away, and the Guo Huan case are all lessons of the past. Once Emperor Hongwu made up his mind, it is normal that all the officials in charge of the six ministries were killed. This is not completed since the Six ministries’ Secretary.
You can see the clues.
Now it is stable, but it is difficult to guarantee that the emperor will not settle the score later, or that he is implicated because of some things. It is really difficult to be an official in the Ming Dynasty. Many civil officials dream of returning to the Song Dynasty, which did not kill civil officials.
Goryeo envoy Li Xun's expression was serious, and he was finally able to accuse Li Chenggui of his crimes in the morning court of the Ming Dynasty, the sect leader.
As soon as this Goryeo Hongru entered the hall, he kowtowed hard, "Goryeo envoy Li Yu, kowtow to His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty!"
Lao Zhu had met Li Xu before, so he also knew that Li Xu knew some Chinese language, but he was not fluent and not very standard. He studied in the Imperial College during the Yuan Dynasty and still had some understanding of Central Plains culture and so on.
Lao Zhu said at this time, "You are an envoy of Goryeo, and you are an envoy of a country, and you should have the temperament of an envoy. When you enter the hall, will you kowtow? Is there no one in your court in Goryeo?"
Lao Zhu's words were not concealed by his jokes and jokes about Goryeo, which also made many civil and military officials in the Ming Dynasty lower their heads and laugh. Perhaps the status of the Han people was low during the Yuan Dynasty, but now it is the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty also has the upper country of the Celestial Empire.
It's imposing.
Li Xu was so sad and angry that he could only say, "Return to His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the king of our country had accepted the title of the Ming Dynasty in the 18th year of Hongwu, and Goryeo was originally a vassal of the Ming Dynasty. The king of our country was interested in the Ming Dynasty, and he once asked for his clothes and clothes. Previously, his envoys were envoys.
Zheng Mengzhou was envoyed to the Ming Dynasty six times and worshiped His Majesty the Emperor three times."
Lao Zhu was happy and then asked again, "Oh? I admire Daming? I am a vassal of the Ming Dynasty! I have heard that you, King Goryeo, raised more than 100,000 troops last year, wanted to attack Liao. The vassal state wanted to attack the sect leader. What is the reason?
Third, I have not been able to wear clothes with you for a long time, so I can see through your innocence! Last year, the Greater Ninth Year name was abandoned, what is this?”
Li Xu felt even more distressed. The king of the country was angry and raised his troops, which was also arguing. Not only did Li Chenggui's rebel thief almost usurp the throne, but he was also not a human inside and outside the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty seemed to be extremely disgusted with Gao Li.
This vassal state that does not surrender.
The prince Zhu Biao also went out to work at this time, singing and saying, "Father, my son thought that there were still traitors in Goryeo, so that such a thing happened."
Li Xu was sad and angry, but at this time he could only beg, "The Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty is wise, please ask His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty to give a clear view. What he did before was deceived by the traitor Cui Ying, and now he has been rectified."
Cui Ying, this is also Wang Feng's confidant. This great man who was a general and a prime minister in Goryeo led troops to attack Japanese pirates many times, went to Jeju, cleared up Lin Jianwei, and was even transferred to the Jianghuai area of the Central Plains by the Yuan Dynasty.
, participate in the suppression of the peasant uprising at the end of the Yuan Dynasty.
It was also this big man who was tough on the Ming Dynasty and advocated sending troops to attack Liao, causing Weihua Island to return to the army, and also let Li Chenggui kill him.
Originally, Cui Ying and Li Yu were both royal guards, but now in order to calm the Ming Dynasty, they can only let Cui Ying bear the reputation of a traitor who harmed the country and the people. Otherwise, the Ming Dynasty would definitely not be able to send troops, which is also for Goryeo to attack.
Liao is looking for a scapegoat, and someone really needs to be responsible for this.
The Goryeo king naturally failed, so he could only bear all the sins of Cui Ying, who advocated the attack on Liao.
Lao Zhu just snorted coldly, there was no need to pursue some things too much, otherwise he would not be very good at planning for the next few. So now I will introduce Cui Ying, even if it is a dead person, it seems reasonable.
Politics, sometimes it is not absolutely black or white, and many times everyone has a tacit understanding and is rarely confused.
Li Xu began to accuse Li Chenggui of the rebel traitor who returned to the army to attack the capital, forcing the Goryeo monarch to abdicate and was exiled to Jianghua Island. He also made the nine-year-old prince the prince the king with the traitor Cao Minxiu, and took charge of the national affairs with some traitors.
In fact, Li Xu had no objection to Wang Chang becoming the king. This time he came to the Ming Dynasty, he was to restrain Li Chenggui's power and maintain Wang Chang's status. In order to prevent Li Chenggui from usurping the throne by taking advantage of the absence of the Prime Minister, Li Xu also asked Li Chenggui to hand over it.
One of his sons accompanied him.
This time, the clerk of the Goryeo Mission who came to the Ming Dynasty was Li Fangyuan, the fifth son of Li Chenggui. This was also Li Chenggui's most capable son. In the future, he could do something to kill his brother and imprison his father and become Taizong of Korea.
/p>
With Li Xu's accusation, many civil and military officials seemed to have a sense of unity against the enemy. Because some of Li Chenggui's actions reminded people of Cao Cao and Sima Yi, and those traitors who usurped the country.
But everyone knows it in their minds that it is a matter of Goryeo, especially the vassal state of Goryeo has been flirting with the Mongolian Yuan before, which is obviously a taboo for the emperor.
It is obviously not a good deal to send troops to such a vassal state, and everyone knows this.
So we must find a more convincing reason. It is obvious that Goryeo cannot afford to pay at any price. In fact, Li Xu is also very clear about this. It is estimated that his little king Wang Chang also understands these principles.
Goryeo was always influenced by the Mongols back then. Whoever the queen was, the Mongols had to nod. If the Wang family wanted to protect the country, they would definitely be prepared to be deeply influenced by the Ming Dynasty.
/p>
At that time, we will inevitably become a true vassal state, rather than being as treacherous as before.
Although the Ming Emperor did not issue an order to send troops immediately, all this also gave Li Yu more hope. The reason is very simple, that is, the monarch and ministers of the Ming Dynasty finally took Goryeo's affairs seriously and did not refuse indifferently as before.
Li Xu must be excited. Keeping Wang's family is his task, and this is what he, a minister, should do. He is a minister of Wang, obviously not a minister of the Li family's rioters. He knows this position very well.
But.
Zhu Biao seemed to be more sympathetic to Goryeo, which also made Li Xu even more excited. He had known some of the situations of the court during his time in the Ming Dynasty. The Prince of Ming really had the power to decide the major affairs of the world.
p>
As for the crown prince, Li Yu noticed it, but the young man always stood aside and didn't speak. But it didn't matter. As long as the crown prince was willing to send troops to help Goryeo, this was enough. The crown prince's weight was not enough.
As the court approached, Lao Zhu spoke, "The prince was in charge of handling Goryeo affairs, and you all must do your best to assist you."
The civil and military officials in the court had no objection, and they were not surprised at all with such arrangements, because this has been the case over the years, and the Crown Prince had already handled all kinds of things very skillfully.
Lao Zhu glanced at his grandson who was resting with his eyes closed and said, "Tripley grandson, follow me to Wuying Palace, I personally teach you how to deal with the national affairs."
Zhu Xiongying, who had closed his eyes and rested, opened his eyes wide in an instant and looked at Lao Zhu in a bit incredible way. This was not a surprise, because Zhu Xiongying was held in his arms by Lao Zhu when he was very young, listening to Lao Zhu talking about the national affairs.
In fact, many things have already come true. The crown prince has begun to participate in the government affairs, and many people know it.
But the emperor said this in the court, which is an obvious signal. This is the sign of the prince's official view of politics!
Looking at Zhu Xiongying's incredible eyes, Lao Zhu couldn't help but feel proud. This matter has also been discussed. His grandson is good at everything, but he is a little slippery. He is doing what the crown prince should do and is also participating in the government.
, but I don't want the reputation of observing politics.
Now that he has cut off his retreat, everyone in the world knows that the crown prince has participated in the national affairs under the guidance of the emperor. These things seem to be extremely important to Lao Zhu.
This is the case. Lao Zhu not only values the actual situation, but also pays attention to some reputation, especially the reputation of his own son and grandson. This is an extremely important matter and he cannot help but be careless.
Many people can see the emperor's happiness, and they don't quite understand the dissatisfaction and depression that the emperor's grandson seems to show. Of course, what is needed is to pay more attention to the prince's expression. The grandson's observation of politics may weaken the prince's power.
.
But the prince also looked very relieved, which made all the civil and military officials feel at ease and felt more and more different from the Ming Dynasty.
In the past, the emperor trusted the prince without reservation, which was already incredible. The prince, who was in his prime, did not care at all about the grandson's participation in national affairs and did not care about the power that might be weakened.
It seems that in the Ming Dynasty, the battle for the throne was completely gone. As long as the emperor's eldest son is destined to inherit the throne.
The depressed Zhu Xiongying followed Lao Zhu weakly. He felt that he had been cheated because he was officially pushed to the front stage. It would be impossible to make a fortune in silence.
Leaving the sight of all civil and military officials, Zhu Xiongying chased Lao Zhu in three or two steps, "Grandfather, today comes this time, I have to observe politics, but I have to observe politics if I don't observe politics. What's this?"
"It's just to let you observe politics! You have the mind and means, and my father and I are happy to see you in power. What's the use of you keep ruling?" Old Zhu grabbed Zhu Xiongying's ear and emphasized, "You do it now."
The thing is to observe politics, it only adds a reputation.”
