Longevity Begins with Jinyiwei

Chapter 206: The Son of Heaven's Default

There is no need to distinguish black and white in the world.

Li Xiu always thought so.

It is useful to him and can be used by him, and it is enough to satisfy these two points.

But nowadays, looking at the ministers of the dynasty, there are actually not many who can achieve these two points.

Today's court, after so many storms, has long since been completely reshuffled!

The former battle between Donglin and the **** is a thing of the past.

The reformists, headed by Sun Chuanting, were the mainstream of the civil servants in the court. The so-called reforms actually meant that in the face of Li Xiu's repeated oppression and deterrence, the civil servants gathered together for warmth and began to cater to the emperor. To a certain extent, it should also be considered. For the imperial party.

Of course, there is another faction that cannot be ignored, and that is the pure voice of the Son of Heaven. If Sun Chuanting’s faction still maintains a basic demeanor, these people are pure underdogs. What the Son of Heaven says is what it is, completely and completely. dog legs.

As for Donglin, under the deliberate suppression of Zhu Youjian and Li Xiu, his power was naturally greatly reduced.

As for the eunuchs, as a faction that could support the Son of Heaven in the early days, Zhu Youjian was quite kind, and he never suppressed them deliberately.

Today, although the Donglin Eunuch Party still exists, its influence has been greatly reduced.

Of course, there is still a force in the court, and no one can ignore that unreasonable military force headed by Li Xiu.

It's just that the pure military power that once was, seems to have changed now.

The courtiers found that in the current court, many officials have begun to speak for the Zhenbei Hou, and many officials actually stand under the banner of Zhenbei Hou.

Obviously, you don't need to think about it to know that the tentacles of Zhenbeihou have already crossed the taboo line and spread to the court!

Powerful minister!

Such a situation made these two words appear in the minds of many officials almost instantly.

Immediately, a strong sense of crisis came to the hearts of many officials.

The eunuchs gained power and coerced the court because the emperor was manipulating them behind the scenes. The eunuchs and eunuchs were just puppets and could be destroyed at any time.

But the Marquis of Zhenbei in front of him, although he was also introduced by the emperor, obviously, there is a gap between heaven and earth from the **** who has gained power!

Hundreds of thousands of troops are his foundation. If you add the court...

Then... this Duke of Zhenbei...

Throughout the history of the Ming Dynasty, he will be a powerful minister that has never existed before!

In fact, Li Xiu was indeed walking in the direction that the civil servants were worried about.

There are many factions in the court, which gave him the leeway to win over one party and attack the other.

If Wei Zhongxian left, suddenly lonely and frightened, the **** officials could kneel in front of a eunuch, and naturally wouldn't mind kneeling in front of him, the Marquis of Zhenbei who could give them more protection.

Master the honors, win over the eunuchs, maintain general cooperation with the reformists such as Sun Chuanting, and then suppress Donglin. Of course, the most important thing is to maintain a tacit understanding with the emperor.

This is the way Li Xiu began to change his mind after Zhu Youjian entrusted the orphan, and he moved forward step by step above the court.

The concerns of the courtiers, Li Xiu's undisguised actions, all of which naturally fell in the eyes of the emperor Zhu Youjian.

It can be said that the current state of affairs has been fiddled with by him, the Son of Heaven.

How to master it, he has a gully in his heart, but the only difference is that Li Xiu broke the tacit understanding between the two of them before, and blatantly expanded his power in the court.

Although, all of this is in his tacit consent.

But to say that there is no fear at all, it is naturally impossible.

but…

From his ascension to the throne, although he maintained a tacit understanding of the military and politics with Li Xiu, every movement in the court and every turmoil had to be discussed with Li Xiu.

He clearly understood Li Xiu's aspirations, and also had an indescribable resonance for Li Xiu's aspirations.

He knew that he was not a majestic emperor, and without Li Xiu's existence, he might still be involved in endless court battles.

Where can there be the power of the Son of Heaven, who is now determined by one word.

Li Xiu's ambition is also his dream.

But now, he can't do it, and his dream has not been shattered.

He believes that Li Xiu... will go on step by step, he also has the capital and the ability, so that the mountains, rivers, sun, moon, and sky will have a new look!

However, if he is afraid, if he is suppressed, or even do everything in his power to hide his bow, no one will go on for his dream.

In this world, no one can suppress it.

As for counting on the Minister of the Manchu Dynasty...

If in the past, he still had great hopes, but now that he has been on the throne for so long, it is enough for him to see clearly the minister of the Manchu Dynasty, the turmoil in the world, and the destruction of the country that can be seen everywhere. The view!

Zhu Youjian has no doubts that if the young master ascends the throne, the situation that he has now mastered with great effort, and the national situation that has only improved slightly, will collapse in an instant!

At that time, the world will return to the control of this group of people, even if there are many people of insight, but in this chaotic environment, nothing can be done, and it will only continue to be the same as before, with endless disputes...

Daming, whether it can last until the day when the young master takes power is a matter of little hope.

He can't be afraid, and he can't suppress...

He should choose to believe, choose to believe in his own vision, and choose to believe in Li Xiu's behavior...

In the Marquis of Zhenbei's mansion, a group of civil servants and courtiers who should not have appeared here, but at the moment are having a feast with Li Xiu, and the courtiers are also full of compliments.

It was not until night fell, the guests were full of joy, and the noisy Zhenbeihou Mansion gradually returned to peace.

"Have you acquiesced?"

Watching the backs of the courtiers leaving, Li Xiuyi suddenly muttered to himself, but suddenly smiled, seemingly helpless and disappointed, of course, more, seemed relieved...

"Master Hou, Xuan Fu has a letter."

Some soldiers rushed over and respectfully handed an envelope to Li Xiu.

"Xuanfu..."

After taking the envelope and opening it at will, Zhou Yuji's words came into view clearly.

"Mongol invasion?"

When he saw these words, Li Xiu's expression suddenly condensed, and then, a cold killing intent also disappeared in a flash!

"Get ready, I'm going to go to the palace to meet your majesty."

"As ordered!"

The soldiers led the way, but Li Xiu's eyes were still fixed on the letter in his hand.

There is no doubt that the group of Shanxi merchants have made another moth.

More than 10,000 iron cavalrymen from Mongolia knelt on the side, and the reason was that the mutual market was interrupted.

Border trouble is a major event, and there is no doubt that those who cause the disruption of the mutual market will bear the inescapable responsibility.

I have to say that the energy of Shanxi merchants is really not small.

From the local Shanxi, to the capital court, to the grassland tribes, they all follow their hearts!

And this is just an interest group limited to one place. If you can see the leopard in the tube, you can see that if the tax reform is really implemented and the interests of the gentry in the whole world are affected, what a stormy scene it will be!

While thinking about it, another hurried footstep sounded.

"Master Hou, Jin Yiwei is here, saying that there is an emergency military intelligence report."

Hearing this, Li Xiu also raised his brows and subconsciously glanced at the letter in his hand: "Bring it in."

"Master Hou, Shaanxi Emergency News!"

This man in Jinyiwei obviously just got the news and came in a hurry. When he spoke, he was a little out of breath.

"Master Hou, Shaanxi Emergency News!"

Hearing the word "Shaanxi", Li Xiu was also taken aback~lightnovelpub.net~ took the military intelligence report from the man's hand, and Li Xiu's expression changed again with the report.

Although he tried his best to look at the energy of Shanxi merchants, it seemed that he still underestimated the determination of these people to safeguard their interests, and underestimated the spread of their tentacles!

From Shanxi local, to the capital court, to Mongolia, and even Houjin, these are not their limits, and their tentacles have even spread to Shaanxi!

Jinyiwei reported that there were several pirates in Shaanxi. Recently, a large amount of ordnance and forage of unknown origin had been obtained, and there were signs of activity in Shanxi.

Obviously, this matter is absolutely inseparable from Shanxi merchants.

After all, as soon as he took office, it would lead to internal and external troubles in Xuanfu, and it would also destroy the big strategy of mutual market. In the past, no one could keep Zhou Yuji, not even the Son of Heaven!

Combining several tricks, the thunderous move was obviously intended to completely kill Zhou Yuji, while at the same time deterring all those who intended to touch their interests.

It's just that they obviously underestimated him, Li Xiu, and didn't make it clear that he, Li Xiu, didn't want their interests, but their lives!
