Volume Four, Volume 4, Chapter 29, Dark Fight

When the Japanese pirates in the southeast rose again, Yang Cong was so angry that he wanted to scold Yan Song in person, because he knew that Yan Song must have done this matter.

Unfortunately, he was just the Minister of Rites, while Yan Song was the chief minister of the cabinet. In terms of power, he was not qualified to teach Yan Song a lesson at all. Yan Song was almost the same as teaching him a lesson.

Nowadays, the high and low are very clear. If he scolded Yan Song without hesitation and whether he was right or not, Yan Song could cure him by offending Shangguan.

The chief minister of the cabinet is the leader of all officials. If you want to teach a lesson, only the emperor of the current dynasty can teach a lesson.

So, what did Jiajing think? Will he teach Yan Song a lesson?

What Jiajing thinks, it depends on what others say. He doesn’t know what the Japanese pirates are. What a joke to teach Yan Song a lesson?

He thought he was wise and powerful, and seemed to know everything and do everything. In fact, he was just a puppet. Everything he knew was heard from others, and everything he could was accomplished through other people's hands.

Generally speaking, Yan Song will teach him whoever he asks him to teach, because he usually asks Yan Song to find out the situation, and he rarely listens to other people's words.

Yan Song was a master who fooled Jiajing. It was basically difficult to let Jiajing teach him a lesson.

This time, he used a series of plans. The resurgence of Japanese pirates in the southeast was just the beginning. Immediately afterwards, the memorial of Zhao Wenhua, the governor of Zhejiang, arrived.

Of course, Zhao Wenhua would not tell Jiajing that he arranged all pirates and Japanese pirates. What he said was not the case at all. In his memorial, he kept complaining that General Tang Kekuan and Qi Jingtong were not obeying the command, so that he could not mobilize troops and eradicate the pirates and Japanese pirates!

It is not entirely true that this matter is all lies. Tang Kekuan and Qi Jingtong are Yang Cong’s confidants, and these two people really don’t obey his command.

However, because Tang Kekuan and Qi Jingtong did not obey the command, he was unable to eradicate the pirates and Japanese pirates. This is a fart.

This guy, Wang Zhi, has become a good person. There are pirates and Japanese pirates in the southeast. Are these pirates and Japanese pirates made by him?

Jiajing didn't know this, and he didn't even know that the Japanese pirates in the southeast had resurrected, because he was concentrating on practicing and didn't care about the court at all.

He only found out about this matter by Prince Zhu Zaiji himself.

There was another Japanese pirates in the southeast. Crown Prince Zhu Zai-ri dared not make decisions about such a big deal, so he could only come to Jiajing with a bunch of memorials.

Most of these memorials were memorials from Suzhou Prefecture and Yangzhou Prefecture to urgently report, but there were also memorials from Zhao Wenhua to Tang Kekuan and Qi Jingtong.

When Jiajing saw Zhao Wenhua's memorial, he frowned immediately. When he looked at the bill attached to the memorial, his brows were even more frowned.

Yan Song naturally added fuel to the fire. He directly wrote on the ticket plan: How can the governor eliminate pirates and Japanese pirates be wiped out according to what Zhao Wenhua said, and it is recommended to replace the generals Tang Kekuan and Qi Jingtong.

This means that the reason why the Japanese pirates in the southeast arose was not that Zhao Wenhua was incompetent, but that his soldiers did not obey the orders!

Jiajing saw it, how could he not frown?

The resurgence of the Japanese pirates in the southeast is already a headache, and it is even more troublesome to have a general and a general.

So, will Tang Kekuan and Qi Jingtong be replaced?

He decided to find Yan Song to find out the specific situation before talking about this matter.

He waved his hand directly and ordered the Crown Prince Zhu Zai to retreat. He then ordered someone to summon the cabinet chief Yan Song to come and meet him.

After the monarch and ministers met, he picked up the memorial in his hand and asked lightly: "Youzhong, what do you mean, is it true that this general Tang Kekuan and Qi Jingtong do not obey the orders?"

Yan Song was so obscene that he didn't say whether it was true or false, but said sinisterly: "The emperor forgives the crime. Is this true or false? I really don't know much about it. After all, I haven't been to the southeast in recent years. I dare not say nonsense. However, I heard that Tang Kekuan and Qi Jingtong were both generals of the "Yang Family Army". It is indeed very likely that they would not listen to the orders of Zhao Wenhua, the governor of Zhejiang Zhizhi."

When Jiajing heard this, his brows frowned even more.

"Yang Family Army"?

Of course he knew who the Yang family army refers to, and that must be Yang Cong, the former governor of Zhejiang Zhizhi, and it could not be someone else.

Yang Cong really formed cliques, and even the southeast army controlled?

He really didn't believe this, because Yang Cong almost retired to the mountains and forests. If he hadn't been recruiting again and again, this guy would probably still be taking care of his children in Yuyuantan. How could such a person have such great ambitions?

He was a little convinced if Yangming's lineage controlled the southeast army.

He thought about it and said hesitantly: "Tang Kekuan and Qi Jingtong have both made great achievements in combat after all. If they were removed based on just a few rumors, it would probably be a bit too hasty. I have to think about this matter again, so you can go down first."

This is indeed very reasonable. What a joke? It’s too ridiculous to remove two second-rank generals just by just a few rumors?

Yan Song also understood that it would not be so easy to remove Tang Kekuan and Qi Jingtong. If it was really so easy, he would have removed these two guys long ago. However, it would be good for Jiajing to consider replacing it at this moment, and he was not in a hurry, because he had a series of plans to follow him. In short, these two guys will definitely be replaced in the end.

He was not in a hurry, but Yang Cong was a little anxious because Zhang Bangqi told him about Zhao Wenhua's report.

After a long time, Yan Song sang this song to remove Tang Kekuan and Qi Jingtong!

If this is the case, the trouble will be great.

Because at this moment, the elite troops of the Southeast Tunwei and the navy warships were under the control of these two people. With these two people, it was almost impossible for Zhao Wenhua to use the power of the court to deal with Wang Zhi and Hong Tiezhu.

Once these two people are removed, Zhao Wenhua will definitely replace his confidants. At that time, this guy will definitely command the imperial army to encircle and suppress Wang Zhi and Hong Tiezhu. The consequences are simply unimaginable!

What to do?

Of course, we have to convene everyone to discuss this matter.

That night, officials from Yang Cong's lineage, as well as Dukes and Queens of Yangming's lineage, Xu Yande and Cui Yuan and other Dukes gathered in the Yang Mansion again to discuss countermeasures.

Yang Cong was not long-winded, and everyone gathered together, so he said directly: "I believe everyone has heard about the Southeast. Zhao Wenhua has reported that he wants to remove Tang Kekuan and Qi Jingtong. Yan Song's purpose has been clear. This old fox is to use the power of the court to deal with Wang Zhi and Tiezhu. If he really succeeds, our wealth path will probably be cut off. How to deal with this matter? What are the good ways for everyone?"

When everyone heard this, they were all angry.

Yan Song is really too greedy. Before he could take over the power, he took away all the benefits of salt. At this moment, he even wanted to seize the interests of maritime trade. Are you wrong?

Are you trying to make any money, how can others survive?

However, if you are angry, if you want to play conspiracies, no one here is Yan Song's opponent except Yang Cong. After Yan Song's series of plans, everyone was helpless.

When Yang Cong saw that everyone was not yelling, he could only sigh helplessly: "No one can do anything, right? It seems that this time I can only be tough with Yan Song. However, before that, we can also disgust this old fox first. Brother Yu Cheng, don't you often refine medicine for the emperor? Tomorrow morning, you can do this and disgust Yan Song first when you go to the emperor and go."
