Chapter 1698: Your heart is too big
Looking at Li Dongyang's obvious confidence and a little proud look on his face, Liu Jin looked at Li Dongyang with a little disgust. . The fastest update
Li Dongyang naturally saw Liu Jin's face, but seemed calm and composed.
Or, this is also something that both sides are incomprehensible. Li Dongyang despised Liu Jin because in his opinion, Liu Jin was stupid and not a man. But he always had a noble excuse for his own behavior.
He can always find a reason to defend himself in this classic and history, such as... Duke Zhou, who wants to be a person like Duke Zhou, wants to return to the world and eliminate evil policies, should be like this; and Huo Guang... After all, there are too many people in this world who have practiced such things, and it is not a big deal for him. He thinks that everything is for the right way in his mind.
But Liu Jin's contempt for him lies in his unscrupulous means. Of course, Liu Jin himself is not a good thing, and he has done a lot of dirty things in the past. In fact, if it were someone else, he would not care at all. His heart had become cold for a long time, in order to live in the palace better, and his blood had not been hot for a long time, but it was involved in His Majesty, the master he had been with for many years, and then he began to have a different reaction.
Both sides had their eyes intertwined, and they were both thinking.
In just a moment, Liu Jin said, "Mr. Li, your heart is too big."
Li Dongyang smiled and shook his head and said, "I must be a big heart, but just look around and the whole world is full of scars. If I want to make things right, I must do this."
Liu Jin felt that it would be meaningless to continue talking, so he just smiled and couldn't deny it.
At this time, an official finally came to greet him, an official from the Ministry of Rites.
This man quickly stepped forward to salute the Grand Secretary Li Dongyang and Liu Jin and said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince heard that the second prince was in the capital. He was presiding over the court in Chongwen Hall. Please ask the two to enter the palace to see the emperor quickly."
Liu Jin and Li Dongyang were very familiar with the rules in the court. Calculate the time. Today is not the time for the court to discuss, but at this time, the court discussion must be something that happened to the court. Just after thinking about it carefully, you can understand that Your Majesty is stubbornly trying to stay in Qinglong, and the news that the new army is wiped out has also been heard. At this critical moment, the court must have held a court discussion every now and then.
Li Dongyang cheered up and said, "Since that's the case, then Eunuch Liu, you and I will come to the palace to meet you as soon as possible."
The two hurriedly entered the palace from the Meridian Gate and rushed to the Taihe Hall. Sure enough, they saw that all the civil and military officials in the court had arrived.
The prince Zhu Zai was only nine years old and could not sit on the imperial throne, so he added a small dock next to the imperial throne. In order not to lose his majesty, the dock was the size of an adult. Zhu Zai sat on his head helplessly, but his legs were hanging.
As soon as you enter the hall, whether it is Liu Jin or Li Dongyang, you can feel the anxiety filled the hall.
A new era is about to begin.
In the past, the Ming Dynasty actually maintained some advantage over all ethnic groups on the grassland, except for the heavy damage from the Tumu Fort. This was not only because of the division within the Mongols, the Oirat and the Tatars attacked each other, but also because the Ming Dynasty sowed the disagreement on it on the one hand, and at the same time occupied many passes outside the pass and the development of Liaodong.
But now, these advantages have been destroyed. Due to the Tumu Fort Incident, the Ming and the Oirat had an irreconcilable hatred. Therefore, the balanced policy was changed to unite the Tatars to suppress the Oirat and beat them. As a result, the Tatars became the lord of the desert, and the Oirat had been embezzled by the Tatars.
Because of the Ming Dynasty's policy of leaving the pass to herd horses, all the focus was on Qinglong. Now, the new army's defeat, it became a matter of course to change hands. By that time, Liaodong was in danger, and not long after, Liaodong was afraid that it would fall into the hands of the Tatars.
What's even more terrifying is that Your Majesty is still outside the pass, which means that his former advantages have turned into disadvantages. So many people have become slaves to the Tatars, and a large amount of wealth will change hands. The strength of the Tatars will become unprecedentedly powerful. This threat is enough to make Daming unable to breathe, just like a spell on the stage. It is completely imagined that from then on, most of the Ming Dynasty's taxes will be placed on the Tatars.
And your Majesty...
Your Majesty is so ignorant that he actually stayed in Qinglong, but he asked Li Dongyang and Liu Jin to come back.
Looking at the two Grand Secretary and the eunuch who appeared to be dusty because of the rushing journey, everyone did not show joy, but was silent.
Liu Jin and Li Dongyang bowed to Zhu Zai. Zhu Zai looked very lonely and looked very depressed.
The bad news about Yafa finally realized that even if he was as strong as Yafa, there would be times of failure. This person who once made him feel friendly and respectable will never be seen again. He felt very uncomfortable, but he had nowhere to vent. His father actually stayed in Qinglong, and his life and death were uncertain in that place, which made him even more unable to sleep or eat.
Zhu Zai took a deep breath before saying to Li Dongyang and Liu Jin: "Father ordered you to come back, but did you leave any words?"
Liu Jin was about to speak, but Li Dongyang took the lead and said: "Go back to Your Highness, Your Majesty has indeed left a message. Your Majesty said that Your Highness is young and now he is in charge of the country. He needs good ministers to assist you. Be careful. Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh food. Now that the country is in danger, your Highness should be like walking on thin ice and never act irresponsible."
Liu Jin glanced at Li Dongyang, and his heart was already confused...
Your Majesty has never said such a thing...
But he stumbled for a moment, but in the end he did not expose Li Dongyang!
Liu Jin knew better than anyone else that Li Dongyang was lying, but Liu Jin knew very well that Li Dongyang dared to say this because he was not worried that His Majesty would come back alive. At the same time, he also knew that if he was exposed, he would be like a deceiving the king and a serious crime. But what else can't be said for a person who has already suffered a serious crime? If he shakes everything out, Liu Jin will not be able to live well.
But these words are obviously of profound meaning, because only Li Dongyang and Liu Jin are testifying. If His Majesty had an accident in Qinglong, then this would be like a will. The right to explain these words is obviously only in the hands of Li Dongyang and Liu Jin.
If you need the assistance of a good minister, then who is this good minister? Is it Wang Hua or Li Dongyang? Be careful, what should you be careful? Don’t act voluntarily. What is considered an act of being voluntarily? Everything here is worth pondering and savoring.
Some people with intention seem to have heard something, but people with no intention really don’t care about this.
