With the emperor's words, they can walk out of the inner palace with their heads held high.
Having completed their major historical mission, they have proved that they are not just idlers and can face all the courtiers with pride!
Just at this exciting moment of celebrating, a discordant voice that sounded suspiciously like Lin Tailai's voice suddenly sounded:
"To announce such an important state matter simply by conveying heaven's instructions orally to a few cabinet ministers would be unreasonable.
Please also ask Your Majesty to personally send out the jade edicts and deliver the edicts and policies to China and foreign countries, so that the officials and the people will know about them.
In addition, I boldly requested that when I was enthroning the East Palace, I would also ennoble the third son of the emperor as a prince."
Emperor Wanli: ""
Damn it! Why didn’t you shut up this little bastard just now?
After Lin Tai finished speaking, he looked at his nose, nose and heart.
What he was betting on was that the emperor was deceiving people!
Historical records clearly record that the dispute over the country continued from the 14th year of Wanli to the 29th year of Wanli.
In other words, Emperor Wanli spent fifteen years with his ministers on the issue of the crown prince before he had no choice but to "give in."
And this year is only the 18th year of Wanli. How could the emperor, who was still very "fighting", compromise easily and agree to make concessions on national issues?
So Lin Tailai's judgment is that it is a delaying tactic and a lie!
As for linking national issues with Lin Tailai's serious crimes, he may be trying to use Lin Tailai's popularity to distract the attention of cabinet ministers.
At this time, the elders suddenly fell silent, waiting for Emperor Wanli to respond to Lin Tailai's call.
They hoped that Emperor Wanli would be furious, push Lin Tailai out of the Meridian Gate, and then further refine the promise!
But after waiting for a long time, I didn't hear any new words from the throne.
Facing the eyes that gradually lost trust, Emperor Wanli had no choice but to forcibly redeem himself and said:
"There is no need for the edict for now. It only needs to be transmitted orally. Your cabinet will just remember it. In the spring and summer of next year, you will start your own preparations."
As a result, the effect was counterproductive. After saving his respect, the cabinet ministers were shocked! Instead, their trust in the emperor completely disappeared.
The emperor didn't want to leave any written evidence, he just wanted to verbally deceive him first, and then find excuses to repudiate the bill!
As a person who enjoys supreme privileges, who can force the emperor to fulfill his contract?
The key point is that the emperor even refused to promise to ennoble the third son of the emperor as a vassal king!
That shows that the emperor still has the idea of ​​establishing the third son of the emperor as the Eastern Palace! Concession on the national issue is a lie!
What's even more ridiculous is that they, a group of old bureaucrats in their fifties and sixties, were actually deceived by an emperor who was less than thirty years old!
Could it be that he was deceived by the professional filter of the emperor and subconsciously felt that the emperor who spoke well would not lie openly?
Ridiculous! The emperor can lie openly, this Ming pill!
Thinking of this, Mr. Wang Sige couldn't help but lose his composure and angrily scolded: "Lin Tailai is a bastard!"
Lin Tailai: "?"
It was the emperor who deceived you, and you were deceived by the emperor!
You either blame yourself or slander the emperor, but why are you scolding me, Lin Tailai? Where is your face?
So Lin Tailai stopped being polite and retorted directly: "Wang Si! It was you who betrayed me, you who convicted me, and now you are insulting me in turn. What's the point?
As a prime minister, you have no ministerial qualities, and you are simply a disgrace to the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty!"
Shen Shoufu, who had stayed out of the matter and had not spoken for a long time, suddenly became active again and shouted to Lin Tailai: "Stop talking!"
As an old politician who was able to sneak into the position of chief minister, he had to admire Lin Tailai, and admitted that Lin Tailai's talent was superior to his own, and he grasped the entry point very well.
In fact, the person they hate the most in the hearts of the elders is not the emperor, but Lin Tailai.
Because Lin Tailai, this bastard, is too talkative!
Even if the emperor deceived them, so what?
If Lin Tailai didn't talk too much, even if they knew they were being deceived by the emperor, they could just pretend not to know!
Then they can continue to pretend that they have made significant progress on the national issue and announce to the outside world that the dispute over the national issue has been initially resolved!
This way you can still get flowers and applause, and you can still be praised by officials all over the world!
As for what happens a year later, the responsibility lies with the emperor's change of heart, you can't blame them!
Anyway, they had already got the flowers and applause, so they made a profit and no loss!
As long as you don’t think you are being cheated, you are not being cheated!
But the possibility of self-hypnosis was exposed by Lin Tailai!
Lin Tailai directly broke all illusions and exposed the emperor's deception, making them unable to even pretend.
If everyone is drunk and you are awake alone, then you are the most hateful person!
What's even worse is that what they wanted to betray Lin Tailai was the emperor's concession on national issues!
If the emperor's promise turned out to be a lie and a joke, how would the world view them if they betrayed Lin Tailai but got nothing in exchange?
Shen Shoufu, who stayed out of the matter, was a little unsure about this situation. He could only say that it was Lin Tailai who was able to be scolded by both sides.
