Chapter 471 Game of Thrones

Author: There are dragons in Nanshan

Since he has broken up, Yang Dan has nothing to hide.

"The King of Yan once passed the imperial edict to enter the capital. Moreover, it was transferred by Emperor Taizu using military talismans before his death. Unfortunately, Emperor Taizu died without waiting for the King of Yan!"

Hearing this, Zhang Yi suddenly felt that he was in a bad mood.

If what Yang Dan said is true, then King Yan Jingnan raised an army, is it really not a rebellion?

Isn’t the word Jingnan a gild on your face and a high-sounding reason for rebellion?

Wait a minute, it seems something is wrong...

Zhang Yi suddenly reacted and asked, "If what you said is true, all officials support Emperor Jianwen, why would there be a Jingnan?"

Yang Dan said: "This is what I want to tell you. If you want to do big things, you must not monopolize them. You must be able to get the best of both. The success of King Yan Jing was because Fang Xiaoru, Huang Zicheng, Qi Tai and others did too much. They formed cliques and suppressed dissidents, and did not leave a way out for others, and finally they were backfired!"

"This is your one-sided statement, there is no evidence!"

"You want evidence?"

Yang Dan shook his head gently and said, "Yes, I have no evidence. Who would record these shameful things? I will only ask you one thing. If there is no support from the court, how do you think King Yan can successfully rebel with his eight hundred troops?"

"The first time the imperial court went on a war, the 130,000 troops disappeared within ten days. What's even more bizarre is that there was no number of casualties in such a battle, and they were all missing. Do you think it's normal?"

Zhang Yi was silent again, his forehead was covered with sweat.

A conversation tonight completely changed his views.

Yang Dan looked at him contemptuously and continued, "So, who can be an emperor depends on the meaning of the ministers. As long as we unite, what's the difficulty of changing to an obedient emperor?"

Zhang Yi's eyes were empty and he shook his head repeatedly: "No, it's not like this. We are ministers, who eat the king's fortune and be loyal to the king..."

"What is the salary of the king?"

"Where do you get the salary, money and food?"

"After all, isn't it the world's wealth and money cream?"

"Why are all the property in the world belonging to the Zhu family?"

"We are working hard and getting a little salary, and we must be loyal to the emperor... it's ridiculous!"

Yang Dan asked a series of questions directly puzzled Zhang Yi's question.

By this time, he no longer knew what was right and what was wrong.

The ways of the monarch and ministers and the rituals of sages that have always been adhered to have all collapsed at this moment.

Yang Dan pushed the box with the land deed and said, "The emperor is extremely cruel in treating us scholars. What new policy should he do? He would rather put the world's money and grain into the pockets of those mud legs. Brother Zhang, these tens of thousands of acres of fertile land in your family are the savings of your hard work throughout your life. Are you willing to give up someone like this?"

Zhang Yi looked at the wooden box and the land deed inside, and was dazed and dazed.

I have studied hard for more than ten years, just to soar to the sky. From then on, I have to worry about fame and fortune for several lifetimes.

Some of the hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land were bought by him for money, and some were donated by local people. In short, they were all wealth accumulated by themselves with hard work.

When I sold it, I was really reluctant to let it go, but there was nothing I could do!

To take a step back, even if the land was sold, his income did not shrink.

Just put the obtained money into workshops, trade and other industries, and the profits are still considerable.

Seeing that he was silent, Yang Dan said again: "I will talk to you alone tonight because of your brotherly relationship. As long as you can accomplish this big thing, you will be the chief minister of the cabinet in the future. Below one person and above ten thousand people. With our support, what you say is the imperial edict!"

Zhang Yi felt cold sweat on his forehead and asked slowly: "Are you going to kill the regicide?"

"No!"

Yang Dan waved his hand and said, "The emperor will die at the hands of the Tatars. After all, it is no wonder that others are. As the king of a country, he often runs out and is at fault first. He deserves to die!"

"Then what?"

"Then the prince ascended the throne. Now His Highness is still young and does not understand the government affairs. Naturally, the major affairs of the country need to be explained to the cabinet."

"You have harmed the emperor. Will the prince let you go when he grows up?"

Yang Dan sighed and said, "It seems that Brother Zhang still doesn't understand!"

Zhang Yi snorted coldly and said, "You can explain it clearly!"

"good!"

Yang Dan's eyes suddenly became vicious and said, "Do you know how the late emperor died?"

"What did you say?"

Zhang Yi almost jumped out of the chair. He never expected that Emperor Xuanzong's death was not normal!

Yang Dan looked calm and cold, and said, "The late emperor wanted to go to the West to re-election and compete with the people for profit, so he naturally would not live long."

Zhang Yi looked dull and didn't say anything.

During the Xuande period, he was just a Hanlin editor, and his daily work was to study history.

In the third year of Zhengtong, he was promoted to a compilation. Nine years later, he became a bachelor's degree. In the fourth year of Zhengtong, he joined the cabinet and participated in the civil service.

During the entire Xuande period, he was not an important senior official. If there was a conspiracy in Emperor Xuande's death, it would be normal that he would not know about it.

San Yang was an important official at that time. For the three, there was no secret in the court.

Even if there is a secret, it was created by the three of them, and they hid it from others.

Zhang Yi had no doubt that Yang Dan could say this tonight.

Yang Dan didn't seem to want to explain too much about this matter, but said: "When Emperor Xuanzong passed away, the emperor was only seven years old, and all government affairs were handled by the cabinet. Over the years, the world has been peaceful and the people have lived and worked in peace. However, after the emperor became an adult, everything has changed!"

"If news comes out of Mobei, the emperor dies and the prince Lingqian succeeds to the throne, the government will still be controlled by the cabinet, and everything we have lost can be taken back!"

The more he listened, the more horrified Zhang Yi's face became.

Yang Dan was definitely not on a whim to dare to say this, they must have been prepared long ago.

He slowly raised his head and asked, "Who is your helper?"

Yang Dan asked back: "Brother Zhang has decided to join?"

"You can only consider whether to join if you say it truthfully. Besides, if I don't join, I will still not be able to get out of this room!"

"Yeah, that's right!"

Yang Dan nodded and said, "It's okay to tell Brother Zhang. The main ones involved in this major event were the gentry in Jiangnan. Their wealth route was cut off by the emperor, and they had been dissatisfied for a long time."

Zhang Yi shook his head and said, "You have to tell me who there is so that I can decide!"

Yang Dan was silent for a moment, and then said, "Yang Tai, the commander of Jianning Guard, is responsible for Jiangnan!"

"On the capital, Yang Hong, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of War, can mobilize troops from all over the world."

Zhang Yi asked again: "Where is your identity?"
