Chapter four hundred and thirty seventh: wise and divine
Chapter 437: Wise and Divine Martial Arts
The Zhengxin Palace each had a ghostly ulterior motive. At the Meridian Gate, Liu Chengfeng arrived. His face was full of fatigue and he said directly to the guards: "After a notice, he said Liu Chengfeng asked for a meeting."
The guard looked at Liu Chengfeng and did not dare to look down on him. He personally joined the twelve guards. The assistant of the Jinyiwei was now at the peak of the sky. One of the strong men of the flag bearer guards said with a smile: "Sir, Your Majesty has said before, saying that if the Marquis of Lianzhou arrived, he would enter the palace to meet immediately, and there would be no mistakes."
Liu Chengfeng nodded and thought to himself that the emperor must have expected that he would come, so he greeted him in advance, so he immediately walked into the palace quickly, and asked the eunuch to report, then walked into the Zhengxin Hall, and bowed to him: "My minister Liu Chengfeng, I have seen Your Majesty, Long live my emperor."
"Get up and talk." Zhu Youzhang calmed down at this time and nodded to Liu Chengfeng.
Liu Chengfeng got up and saw Li Dongyang, Liu Jian and Liu Ji were all there. Liu Chengfeng didn't feel any surprise. It was normal for the chance that the cabinet ministers would enter the palace to negotiate. Liu Chengfeng said: "Your Majesty, the whereabouts of King Shanggao have been found out. Now he is staying at the Sihai Commercial Store in Yingchunfang."
After saying that, he continued to shake out many of the latest news: "King Shanggao entered the city from Chaoyang Gate, and then went directly to the Shishi Archway and entered the inner city. Then he went directly to Yingchunfang. After arriving at Yingchunfang, he seemed to have been shopping around, so he stopped at Sihai Business Store and took him with him. After Sihai Business Store, many people visited him."
"There are many powerful people, Qingliu, and many famous scholars. They have seen Shanggao King, but they have not yet come out. The Weishi asked the Minister of the Honglu Temple to inquire about the words of Shanggao King. After Lord Zhao entered the Sihai Commercial Bank, he found that there were hundreds of people in the Sihai Commercial Bank, including a single guard. Three steps and five steps, each whistle. All the celebrities from the capital were waiting for Shanggao King to see them. When Lord Zhao met Shanggao King, Shanggao King said that the Honglu Temple was too small and dirty, and he could not trust the people in the Honglu Temple, so he planned to stay in the Sihai Commercial Bank..."
Liu Chengfeng suddenly said all the information he had inquired urgently. When he spoke, he spoke clearly and his language was straightforward, which made Li Dongyang and Liu Ji, who were sitting on the side, look at him with their hearts and thoughts: "It is not accidental that this person can get the holy family. Now all the yamen are in a mess, and even the cabinet cannot find a solution. Liu Chengfeng silently asked for everything and then went to the palace to report. These news is very important to the emperor. The earlier he knows, the easier it is to make a decision.
Zhu Youzhang was obviously shocked by the news, celebrities... Although the specific names of these celebrities have not been listed yet, Zhu Youzhang believes that these people must be important figures in all aspects of the capital. As soon as King Shanggao arrived at the capital, he was like an imperial envoy, and immediately attracted so many people to see each other. What does this mean?
Liu Chengfeng continued: "This Sihai Commercial Bank has a very high credit in Jubao Building. It is a member of the gold medal. The owner is Zhou Yan. However, Weichen believes that the real owner behind Zhou Yan should be Ning Wang. Weichen has searched the records of Sihai Commercial Bank. Sihai Commercial Bank has strong financial resources in the capital and has had several records of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver transactions. In the entire Jubao Building, it ranks one of the top ten commercial banks. It employs thousands of workers and has a huge area of operation. There are all their warehouses and shops all over the country."
Zhu Youzhe frowned. The Sihai business is not simple, and there are several transaction records of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, which is enough to surprise people. This means that the Sihai business has enough cash, which can be hundreds of thousands of yuan. Doesn’t this mean that the Ning Wang Mansion has made sufficient preparations for rebellion. Isn’t this mean that the Ning Wang Mansion has made enough preparations for rebellion, but it is afraid that the silver can be used by King Ning. As the saying goes, before the troops move, food and grass will be used first. Only with money can there be food and grass, can the warriors be recruited, and the daily supplies can be consumed. Now, the Sihai business that King Ning secretly set up has thousands of people, and the wealth it has saved is afraid of as much as one million. It would be strange if Zhu Youzhe is not worried.
More importantly, the capital was originally under the feet of the emperor. Logically, King Ning must have penetrated a lot of strength in Tongzhou, Jiangnan and other places in the north and south. Once the rebellion is rebelled in the future, these people can cooperate inside and outside. But I didn’t expect that even the capital has such huge energy, so there is no need to mention other places.
The King Shanggao just had such a move that revealed countless information. King Ning's strength was probably even stronger than Zhu Youzhang imagined. The King Ning's line, since he was fooled by Emperor Wen, was afraid that several generations of people would be resentful. After several generations of people managed it, its strength had reached such a level.
At this time, Zhu Youzhang had made up two decisions. The first was that the Ning Wang family had to be cut off and could not be left to his descendants for treatment. He was confident that he was still a wise ruler. If he had done it, at least the possibility of withdrawing the vassal state was the highest. If it were later descendants, they might not have worked hard like him.
As for the second determination, it is that within two years, King Ning must not be moved. The reason is very simple. The court has no preparation now. At this time, with the strength of the tip of the iceberg that King Ning has shown, it is enough to provoke trouble everywhere in the world. If we contact Washu, Tatar, and King Ning gather 100,000 people in Jiangxi, then the world must be in chaos.
If the move of King Gao had not been made, Zhu Youzhang might have been furious, and there was a possibility of using force. But now, Zhu Youzhang became extremely calm. He met his biggest opponent since he was in power. This opponent has not yet estimated the strength of the opponent. The deeper he understood, he realized the terrifyingness of King Ning's strength. The more he did, the more afraid Zhu Youzhang would be. At least in the eyes of the three cabinet ministers, what His Majesty is thinking now is probably no longer treating King Ning as a scar. I am afraid that the removal of King Ning will become one of the important national policies of the court in the next two years.
Zhu Youzing narrowed his eyes and said, "Those officials who went to greet King Gao must carefully touch their details. The Jinyiwei will do this. Let's pass the order. Zhao Yifu, the Minister of the Honglu Temple, neglected his duties and was transferred to the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple in Nanjing to serve as a warning to others."
Everyone was not surprised after hearing this. The situation is that the emperor would never attack King Gao again. Not only that, he should comfort him so that he can get enough time to prepare. Now that such a big scandal has occurred, someone will definitely take the blame. King Gao cannot take it, so naturally it is Zhao Yifu who will take it. Once he is transferred to Nanjing, Zhao Yifu's career will be ruined.
Li Dongyang's eyebrows couldn't help but frown deeply, and he seemed very unhappy, but at this time, he could not make a sound.
However, a smile appeared on Liu Ji's face. Taking advantage of the trouble of King Shanggao, he had already laid a secret chess. Then the next step should be to let Li Dongyang suffer a little.
Zhu Youzhang glanced at everyone with a serious expression, and then said slowly: "The country has traitors. Sooner or later, the imperial court will fight against Nanchang and fight against each other. It is not my wish, but King Ning has a ulterior motive and has already secretly recruited troops and has revealed his ambitions. It is only a matter of time before the imperial court suppresses the rebellion. Because the cabinet must be prepared, and the matter of creating a new army mentioned at the beginning must also be prepared as soon as possible. This new army is still the same as the student army, with the prince as the commander, followed by Liu Chengfeng. The court must do its best to pay the weapons and food required. What I said is, do you understand?"
Zhu Youzhang's words have revealed his determination. At least before quelling the rebellion, these things will become the focus. The three cabinet ministers would not understand the emperor's meaning and hurriedly said: "I obey the order."
Zhu Youzhang continued: "In addition, the road construction matters of the imperial court going to Jiujiang, Jingdezhen and other places must be completed within one year. The roads must be completed on time. For this matter, let Xie Aiqing arrest you, and Xie Aiqing don't let me down."
Xie Qian was actually irritable, but he was not a fool. These two paths were the foundation for suppressing rebellions in the future. Once King Ning rebelled in Nanchang, the court must ensure that it responded as quickly as possible. With these two paths to Jiangxi, it would be possible to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Xie Qian said: "I accept the order."
Zhu Youzhang continued: "In addition, the Jinyiwei must also inquire everywhere. In Jiangxi, I will inform Mou Aiqing about this matter."
"Okay, if I think of something again, I will know you. I am tired of it. Three dear friends, please go to the cabinet office to work."
He sent Li Dongyang and the other two away, leaving Liu Chengfeng alone. He must have something to explain to Liu Chengfeng. However, Zhu Youting obviously did not have the intention to talk to Liu Chengfeng directly. Instead, he called a eunuch with a stern face and said, "Immediately send someone to the Sihai Business Company, Xuan Shanggao King enters the palace, and take Princess Longting to the harem as well. King Shanggao came from afar, and it was very hard. I wanted to set up a banquet in the palace, which could be regarded as a welcome to King Shanggao King. The Ning team and his team were stationed in Nanchang and took over Jiangxi for our Ming Dynasty. It is said that they have worked hard and made great contributions. I must treat it well."
He glanced at Liu Chengfeng and said lightly: "Master of Lianzhou should stay here to accompany you. Speaking of which, you and King Shanggao are also old acquaintances, so it's better to gather together today."
