Liu Jin looked at Zhu Houzhao who tried hard to restrain his emotions but was full of worries. He stood up slowly with his eyebrows down, but did not leave. He knew... the real good show was about to begin.

So Liu Jin stood aside, carefully observing Zhu Houzhao's every move, and countless thoughts had changed into his mind.

Although Ye Chunqiu's death made him happy, the court situation after Ye Chunqiu's death was what he expected the most.

Next…what should be done?

Not long after, Liu Jian and others came in with a worried look. In fact, after receiving the report, the entire cabinet was completely in an uproar.

The rebellion of King Anhua, Ningxia is a border area. The rebellion of the border troops was an extremely serious incident because they were the barriers of the Ming Dynasty. Once these people rebelled and were not properly handled, the rebellion could not be quelled immediately, which means that these riots were very likely to collude with foreigners.

The Hexi Corridor is the Dinghai Shenjian in the northwest. If the rebels contact the foreigners or even the Tatars, the consequences will be unimaginable, and it may even cause the court to completely lose the Hexi Corridor, making Guanzhong and even Hanzhong a front line against the enemy.

In order to consolidate the Hexi Corridor, the imperial court spent a huge amount of money over the past hundred years. Not to mention the number of border troops raised every year, it had to build forts and strengthen city defense almost every year, and countless money and grain were invested in it.

Once this place is lost, the entire Ming Dynasty will have to start to establish Hanzhong and Guanzhong into military centers in the future. And this...not to mention spending money and grain, this large-scale grain producing area faces the threat from the enemy directly. How serious will the consequences be?

And the biggest hidden danger is not just these. The most important thing is that if the rebels support Anhua King Zhu Ai, that would be a serious problem.

Most ordinary rebellions are routines of officials forcing the people to rebel. They have almost no political program or long-term goals. They just have no way to live and livelihood, so they raise their arms. As soon as the official army arrives, it is easy to not clean up.

Now, not only does the rebels have the royal family of the Ming Dynasty as their target, but their political program must be clear. Moreover, from the manifesto, the other party obviously used to clear the monarch, which is an old routine, but this old routine is the real terrible method, because clearing the monarch is easy to bewitch people's hearts, and it is difficult for ordinary people to sympathize with rebellion, but clearing the monarch is different. First, they fight against corrupt officials and do not against the emperor, which won the sympathy of people oppressed by the government in various places, and even some frustrated scholars may participate.

This is obviously the most serious rebellion that occurred in the Ming Dynasty since the Jingnan Campaign. If it is handled improperly, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Liu Jian understood that the rebellion must be quelled as soon as possible, otherwise the longer it delayed, the worse the consequences would be.

However, there was something in the manifesto that made him feel sorry for, and Ye Chunqiu was actually dead.

Wang Hua and Xie Qian heard the news and almost fainted. As soon as Ye Chunqiu died, the situation in the court would change. He felt regretful and worried about Ye Chunqiu.

The reason why the former notorious Eight Tigers have been suppressed in the past two years, or that they dare not be as domineering as before, to some extent, Ye Chunqiu has made some contributions. Now Ye Chunqiu dies...

Why……

Liu Jian was the leader, and the rest were Xie Qian, Wang Hua, and Li Dongyang, with pale faces, and Zhang Cai, then the Tianguan of the Ministry of Personnel, would never have expected such good news. It was like suddenly winning the first prize. Ye Chunqiu was originally a thorn in his and Eunuch Liu's eyes, and a thorn in his flesh. Now that the matter is ready, the matter is solved all of a sudden. Once Ye Chunqiu died, a big rock fell into the ground.

The censor Liu Yu followed Zhang Cai, and his face couldn't help but look happy, but he wanted to pretend to be sad. If it weren't for Ye Chunqiu, he might have entered the cabinet and was the most powerful minister. Unexpectedly, he fell into a severe case in the end. Now Ye Chunqiu is dead, which can be regarded as a revenge for himself. He desperately wanted to hide his joy, so he had to lower his head, forcefully frankly, and follow everyone into the warm cabinet.

When everyone saw Zhu Houzhao, they knew the little emperor's mood at first glance, their lost appearance, and the tears that were not wiped clean on their faces all told the little emperor's sorrow.

Everyone gave a big gift, but Zhu Houzhao didn't respond. However, when Liu Jin saw it, he looked sad and said, "Your Majesty is ill, everyone should get up."

Then he asked someone to give him a seat, and everyone sat down, with their own thoughts.

Zhu Houzhao suddenly said, "I want to lead the army in person!"

The emperor personally commanded the army!

This was Zhu Houzhao's first thought, but this time, he no longer had the same playfulness as before. He wanted to tear Zhu Liu into pieces. This time, Zhu Houzhao wanted to avenge Ye Chunqiu with his own hands. Once this thought emerged, it was like opening Pandora's box.

Liu Jian and others looked at each other, and then Liu Jian hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, King Anhua has only gathered tens of thousands of people. Your Majesty can send effective ministers to send troops to clear them. How can you work your Majesty to be condescending yourself? What's more, the people in the country are suspicious and all officials are uneasy. Your Majesty should stay in the capital to calm the hearts of the people. I think that Yang Yiqing, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, can take this position. During his tenure, Yang Yiqing built border defenses, and his subordinates are willing to rely on him. Now Ningxia rebelled, and many of the rebel generals were Yang Yiqing's old subordinates. If you want to quell the rebellion, Your Majesty can use Yang Yiqing's general military affairs to quell the rebellion with the general Shen Ying, and appointed Zhang Yong as the general general. At that time, the rebels will surely be in chaos and the rebellion will be settled in an instant."

Liu Jian mentioned Yang Yiqing at this time. On the one hand, Yang Yiqing had some friendship with him. On the other hand, Yang Yiqing was indeed the most suitable candidate. When Yang Yiqing was appointed as the governor of Gansu and Shaanxi, the military affairs of the three towns, but because he refused to rely on Liu Jin, he begged for his elders to retire and is now idle in the capital. Taking advantage of this opportunity to use Yang Yiqing is a good choice for Liu Jian.

Liu Jian even vaguely felt that with the grudge between Yang Yiqing and Liu Jin, once the rebellion was quelled, there would be many articles to do at that time, which was also a layout after Ye Chunqiu's death.

What's more, although Yang Yiqing was a civil servant, he had been in the border town and was a rare general in the Ming Dynasty. It was the most suitable for him to quell the rebellion.

As soon as Liu Jian finished speaking, Li Dongyang immediately echoed: "What Liu Gong said is very true, and I also think that Yang Yiqing is the best candidate."
