Back to the main hall,

Li Dongyang picked up the teacup and took a sip. Yan Chengjin had no tea at his hand, so he would not drink it even if he gave it to him.

"Tell me, what's the matter with me?"

Yan Chengjin was used to Li Dongyang's appearance of not being a fan of him: "The officials came to the mansion to retire for Wang Yue."

He thought this son was here to propose marriage, Li Dongyang breathed a sigh of relief: "I know that I have a good relationship with Wang Yue and want to help him retire, but Your Majesty does not allow you, you are in the court."

Although Wang Shouren's victory was remarkable, Wang Yue repeatedly attacked the Tatars. With him in the court, he could shock the Tatars, which Wang Shouren could not compare to.

This is the profound meaning of Your Majesty.

Yan Chengjin said, "The emperor wants Lord Wang to retreat and build academies and teach people how to practice martial arts."

"Why do you need to know my official position when doing martial arts?" Li Dongyang was puzzled.

As early as the Song Dynasty, martial arts were found in the public, especially during the reign of Emperor Huizong of Song, various states established martial arts for the children of gentry to learn archery and horses.

Like Zhu Houzhao, Song Huizong was a genius who was delayed by the emperor.

He is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, writing poetry and lyrics, and is also good at building gardens.

He has a very high attainment in the literary world, but unfortunately, he was accused by a few people of not doing their jobs and being called a foolish monarch.

Yan Chengjin shook his head and said, "What the officials said is not just as simple as bows and horses, but Lord Wang teaches the experience and strategies of marching and fighting."

Li Dongyang held the tea and was slightly surprised: "Do you know why there is no such a college in the world?"

If you are a general, you can teach the experience and strategies of marching and fighting, it is understandable.

But the college recruits students from all over the world. What do you think if they occupy the mountain and confront the imperial court and rebel?

Yan Chengjin nodded: "Of course I know that the court is afraid that someone will recruit troops to rebel."

Li Dongyang said angrily: "I know you still mentioned it! It's okay if you mention it with me. You must not mention it in the court, nor should you mention it with the prince."

After all, he is his own disciple. Although this son is abominable, if he does not become a son-in-law, he is still one of the few good officials in the court.

Yan Chengjin said: "Mr. Li should know that it is only a matter of time before Lord Wang retires. Although my father is civil and martial, he can guard the three sides, there are still heroes in his late age. If no descendants come to inherit the court, Hetao will be lost again."

Although my father has some strategy, he is far from being a famous general.

The Hongzhi Dynasty lost Hetao and its troops were almost the same, but the military generals in the court were much weaker than those in the Tatars.

Although Emperor Hongzhi worked hard to govern, he was not an emperor who was good at fighting like Zhu Di.

The disadvantages mentioned by Li Dongyang are inevitable in later generations. After mastering the skills, the few people are involved in evil.

After weighing the pros and cons, the pros and cons are big.

Moreover, the army was in control of the court, Emperor Hongzhi was very popular with the people, and refugees were placed in the northwest border. Even if there was a large-scale rebellion, it would soon be quelled.

"I naturally know that there is no good general in the court to succeed." Li Dongyang continued: "It is better to have a lot of battles than to talk about wars on paper. Can you cultivate generals in this way?"

"Of course, Lord Li doesn't have to pay attention. Someone can invite you, but Mr. Li doesn't object." Yan Chengjin believed that because there was a school that taught people to fight in later generations, named Huangpu.

Li Dongyang narrowed his eyes slightly: "Have you convinced others?"

"Yes, Lord Wang of Zhan's Mansion."

Li Dongyang looked at Yan Chengjin in shock.

Yan Mansion,

Wang Hua narrowed his eyes slightly and was displeased: "It's almost an hour. When will your young master come back?"

Chunxiao lowered his head slightly and made a tea ceremony: "I have sent someone to Li's house to report to the young master."

Wang Hua touched his chin. Could this guy know that I was coming and brought the rescue in advance?

Another cup of tea has passed.

Yan Chengjin walked into the main hall calmly and saw Wang Hua supporting his forehead with his hands and taking a nap on his back.

"Do you have to open a room to sleep?"

Wang Hua was confused. When he saw this familiar face, he suddenly became energetic.

"I'm asking you to argue! Why don't you keep your promise?!"

"The people of Liaodong were captured by 300 people. Brother Bo'an would not go north, and more people would be captured. Lord Wang was in the Eastern Palace, so he should not know that the situation was critical." Yan Chengjin said to Wang Hua.

Zhan Shi's mansion only cared about the prince's study and ignored the rest. Wang Hua's face calmed down: "Is there no general in the court?"

"I have a way. Perhaps, in the future, Brother Bo'an will not only not have to leave Beijing, but also stay in the capital."

This son often fools the prince, and Wang Hua won’t be fooled: “Tell me, let me see.”

"I and Lord Wang advised His Majesty, and ordered Lord Wang to retire, open a prefecture in the capital, and teach you the experience and strategies of leading troops."

Seeing Wang Hua silent, Yan Chengjin continued: "If there is a general like Wang Yue in the court, Brother Bo'an can also go on a civil servant career or even enter the cabinet."

The Ming Dynasty is not as good as the literary one.

Wang Hua always hoped that his son would go on the career of civil servants like himself and become a famous scholar in the world.

"Have you told Mr. Li?"

"Well, Mr. Li agreed."

Wang Hua showed suspicious expressions. Yan Chengjin's words were the same as the prince, and he could not believe them, so he could only prove Li Dongyang.

He decided to go to Li's mansion.

...

East Warm Pavilion,

Emperor Hongzhi saw Wang Yue’s remarks asking for retirement again.

"Now the north is not yet determined, I cannot let the Wang Qing family retire."

Xiao Jing bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Wang is outside the hall."

I was afraid that Your Majesty would not allow it, Wang Yue personally sent a memorial.

"Wang Qing's family is fifty, right?"

"Your Majesty, it's seventy..."

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Xiao Jing in surprise, and Wang Yue's body was strong and he could not see it.

The seventy-year-old general was indeed a little older when he went to the battlefield to fight. Xiao Jing couldn't stand it: "Your Majesty, why not let Wang Yue retire, right?"

"You think I don't want it, but who else in the court can resist the north?" Emperor Hongzhi wished he could lead the army in person like Emperor Wen.

Seeing that His Majesty was a little angry, Xiao Jing did not dare to answer.

Outside the hall gate, not only Wang Yue, but also Yan Chengjin came.

"My dear nephew, do you think Your Majesty will let Uncle retire?"

"It depends on Lord Wang."

Yan Chengjin couldn't figure out Wang Hua's temperament, and didn't know if he would come.

Wang Yue had long been determined to resign from his master, and this time he was determined to resign from His Majesty. Out of Wang Yue's long-term protection, Yan Chengjin would of course help him once.

Soon after, the little eunuch came out and declared: "Two sirs, Your Majesty summoned me."

Emperor Hongzhi looked at the hall gate suspiciously, and unexpectedly Yan Chengjin would meet with Wang Yue.

"Yan Qing's family is also here to persuade me to let the Wang Qing's family retire?"

"There are two things that I have come to meet the saint, and this is one of them."

The higher the merits, the harder it is to retire in the court. It is not only the Hongzhi Dynasty. Therefore, officials are often appointed by the emperor and die in their careers when they take office.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Yan Chengjin: "You said."

Yan Chengjin hesitated for a moment before saying, "The court is not careful to set up an institution like the Imperial College to teach the experience and strategies of war in order to cultivate generals?"
