Chapter 114 Clan Regulations
Chapter 114
"Room," the thunder made a loud noise.
The flash of lightning shone on the hall and on Jiajing's face. It makes people unable to see it clearly. I don't know if it is a problem with lightning, but it looks bloodless. When the lightning light flashes, it returns to the candlelight and then there is a hint of rosy color.
Jiajing said: "That's all."
Zhou Mengchen said: "I have said everything I see. I dare not hide it at all."
Jiajing said, "Okay. What do you think?"
After the blood splashed in the palace gate, in just about half an hour, the Grand Secretary of the Three Guards of the Cabinet, Lu Bing and Huang Jin, had all arrived. As an eyewitness, Zhou Mengchen told the situation in a simplified manner. At this moment, he stepped aside, which made him secretly relieved. This trouble may not affect him.
Yan Song first spoke, kneeling on the ground with a "splash" and said, "As a Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, I cannot assist the king, and I will not appease the royal family, and even today's affairs. I ask you to surrender your crime."
After hearing this, Zhou Mengchen thought secretly: "Is this thing really done by Yan Song?" The reason why Zhou Mengchen thought this way was that he felt Yan Song's words. He seemed to be stopping him from his crimes, but in fact he secretly fired a secret arrow to Xia Yan.
Xia Yan arrested the case of the royal family. Yan Song had no room for intervention. At this time, what crimes did he ask for? All he asked for were Xia Yan's crimes. He said it nicely, as if he wanted to be punished on behalf of Xia Yan, but in fact he confessed his guilt on behalf of Xia Yan.
What a smart person Jiajing was, and when he looked at Yan Song, he felt a little hesitant, but he didn't say anything.
After all, Jiajing has always acquiesced to the fight between ministers. Although this time it was a bit too much, it made Jiajing feel a little angry. But he still had to look at the changes in the situation to determine whether Yan Song did this.
After all, there is nothing in the court, so there is no need for the masters of power and scheming.
Zhou Mengchen's understanding is the most superficial understanding. However, more possibilities are extended here in Jiajing. For example, Xia Yan's bitter plan, such as having a third method to provoke the struggle between the two and profit from it, such as Zhang Zhi, a Grand Secretary who just gained a foothold in the cabinet.
So when encountering such a thing, Jiajing always takes a steady look, and does not make a conclusion easily, and is worried that he will be used as a gun.
He didn't say anything to Yan Song, but looked at Xia Yan.
Xia Yan glanced at Yan Song. No matter whether this was done by Yan Song or not, Xia Yan knew that it was not the time to deal with Yan Song. He said, "Mr. Yan's words are wrong. The great principles of heaven and earth are the most important. Emperor Taizu did not avoid the royal family. Now the crime of King Lu is too numerous to write, and it is in heaven. Your Majesty is dealt with impartially. What crime is there? If the court acts and is forced by one or two rogues to death, it will be shaken, which will damage the majesty of the court. I think the case of King Lu has been closed. There are also seventy-three cases in the royal family, all of which have been closed. It is just because the criminals have special identities and are in prison. I think the court should deal with this matter with thunder and declare to the people of the world that the imperial court will not violate the majesty, no matter who it is?"
Seeing this, Yan Song immediately said, "Your Majesty, no. The vassal kings in various places were enfeoffed by Taizu, and used to protect the imperial family. They are the pillars of the country and the barriers of the court. Now, there are minor mistakes, and I am so merciless. I think that the emperor hurts Your Majesty's virtues and the subordinates' hearts of the royal family. I am afraid that the friendship of the relatives will not be there. Xia Yan's move will not be known where to take Your Majesty?"
When Xia Yan heard Yan Song’s accusations, he felt a little crisis in his heart.
Because Yan Song has been obeying his advice this year.
Although Xia Yan did not put aside his vigilance against Yan Song in his heart, he was also a little negligent in preventing him. Now that he saw Yan Song suddenly changed his mind, he immediately became alert and said to himself: "Yan Song endured for more than a year, and he must have made big moves. Now that he is doing this, isn't he ready?"
"What did he prepare?"
Xia Yan is a bit rougher, not as secretive and cautious as Yan Song. But it does not mean that Xia Yan is a weak hand in the way of power and plotting. However, Xia Yan is better at suppressing people with power, just like dealing with Wang Gao, upright, moving like thunder, and not thinking about so many things.
I can only say that Yan Song and Xia Yan have different styles in this regard. It is hard to say who is stronger and who is weak.
However, a person's energy is limited. He has more in other aspects. He has less in other places. Xia Yan is focused on the reconciliation. In order to reconcile, he has to promote the regulations of the royal family and cut the knife on the head of the royal family, which is a lot of trouble.
The attention to Yan Song was much less.
Therefore, Xia Yan felt sensitively that something was wrong. However, he had no more judgment on Yan Song's further plan.
Xia Yan's thoughts in this regard were changed, but he immediately counterattacked: "Your Majesty, time has changed, and now the vassal kings in various places are no longer the pillars of the country and the barriers of the court. From the crimes of the vassal kings, it can be seen that the vassal kings have become a major cancer of the Ming Dynasty. The people in the world hate it to the core, which greatly hurts Your Majesty's wisdom. This is also to correct the origin, to make up for the sheep and to make up for the bribes. Eliminate the bad horses, and to truly make the royal family a pillar of the country and a barrier of the court."
"This is what His Majesty expects."
Jiajing heard the two of them. But after pondering for a while, he made a judgment and said, "In accordance with Mr. Xia's opinion, what should we do?"
As soon as Jiajing said this, Yan Song felt aroused in his heart and said to himself: "It seems wrong."
Yan Song made this incident, which seemed to point directly at Xia Yan, but in fact, it was a test of Jiajing's attitude. In his words, he particularly favored the role of the Ming vassal kings in the guardianship of the imperial family. In fact, how could Yan Song not know that there was almost no good bird among these vassal kings, let alone that the power of the Ming vassal kings was completely exploited.
He has no ability to protect the imperial family.
He mentioned this point in fact, in fact, to remind Jiajing that Xia Yan did this, which was actually a threat to your throne. If the matter was set on the expected development of Yan Song, wouldn’t Jiajing’s suspicion of Xia Yan be rising? At this time, Jiajing always reveals it a little.
Yes, Jiajing's performance was beyond Yan Song's confidence.
Yan Song lowered his head slightly, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, and he thought to himself: "Why is this? Is there something happening around the emperor that I don't know? Or, who has changed the emperor's will."
In fact, Jiajing did not fail to notice Yan Song’s hint, but Yan Song was not sure about two points.
First of all, Jiajing is still hesitating in his heart, not knowing whether the statement of disaster is correct or not. This is why Zhou Mengchen has spent so much verbal effect on Jiajing.
Secondly, Jiajing was very impressed by Zhou Mengchen's math problems at the beginning.
When Jiajing thought that the growth rate of the imperial family had almost doubled in twenty years, he was a little breathless. In fact, the court is already owing the royal family's wealth and rice. He is already a little overwhelmed. If this continues, Jiajing can see the future financial collapse of Aming.
Therefore, the priority of this matter is very high.
Before this matter, Jiajing could still put other things on.
But others may not be able to do this, but Jin Xia Yan did it. Then let him finish it.
When Xia Yan heard Jiajing's question, he immediately understood and said, "Your Majesty, I think the royal family has committed many crimes, but it is because the court gives me the salary, restricting the military, official, business, etc., so that these people can have no worries about food and clothing and do nothing, so that they can do things now. I think that it is decent for the court and the long-term consideration of the royal family. I should reorganize the royal family regulations, so that these people can support themselves and serve the court, and be of different ways with the court and those with them."
After hearing this, Jiajing said, "Does there be a charter?"
Xia Yan took out a stack of memorials from his sleeve and said, "I have already drafted the charter."
Jiajing said, "Come on."
Huang Jin immediately stepped forward, took the memorial with both hands, and handed it to Jiajing.
Chapter completed!
