Wang Dazongbo's humorous words made many civil servants burst out laughing, but the atmosphere at the general's side was not so good.
Many people frowned, and Yang Jian even had black lines on his head.
Who has nothing to do to pick out the words in these long and smelly etiquette? These civil servants are really weird!
"This is the opinion of corrupt scholars!"
Zhao Kuangyi couldn't see Wang Mang being so proud, so he couldn't help covering his nose and said in a feigned disgust: "It's unrealistic to only talk about historical records! Wang Zongbo's rotten spirit can overflow the Qianyang Palace!"
"The Yellow River floods are serious and the victims are homeless. The top priority at this time is to provide disaster relief and rescue the people. How can we do such a flashy thing!"
Unexpectedly, the word "furu" was like poking a hornet's nest, which suddenly made many elders unable to hold their nerves.
You are a rotten scholar when you step on a horse, and your whole family is a rotten scholar!
"The true etiquette is ruined! If you read poems and books, you will be called a rotten scholar if you are full of knowledge, but the barbaric behavior of being ignorant of Chinese characters can be seen in the palace!"
"General Zhao keeps saying that he is pragmatic, but he is just a short-sighted person! At this time, the disaster has just passed the Yellow River floods, and the people are worried, so His Majesty will swear an oath in the southern suburbs to calm the hearts of the people with His holy grace..."
Zhao Kuangyi also read books and was considered to have strong fighting ability among the generals.
However, strength also depends on the situation. Faced with the siege of a group of civil servants who have been involved in quarrels for a long time, he will not be able to get away with it.
Before he could even reply a few words, he was so reprimanded that he couldn't open his mouth. If there wasn't a road between the civil and military parties, the saliva from the civil officials would have been sprayed on his face.
But the military generals could not see their own people being besieged, so they also joined the battlefield one after another.
Although they can't outshine the civil servants in their reasoning, they are all strong men with strong energy, loud voices and stronger stamina.
The civil servants were all out of breath, and they hadn't finished warming up yet.
Li Qian was watching the farce from above. Although he enjoyed watching it, now that the heat was on, he couldn't let them continue arguing.
"Big companion."
Li Qian called out softly, and the old eunuch immediately understood, stood up and shouted loudly: "Quiet!!"
The civil servants, whose voices were almost hoarse from shouting, immediately stopped speaking. They were not stupid.
The generals had no opponents and had to stop fighting.
Li Qian looked around at the ministers below. He already had an idea in his mind, it would be better to go there.
"I already know your thoughts."
"However, the Wu State rebelled against the order and acted as a traitor. The loyal soldiers of the imperial army forgot about themselves and rebelled against Wu. I will go to the southern suburbs myself to show that I am with all the generals."
Upon hearing His Majesty the Emperor's decision, the civil servants were overjoyed, but the faces of the generals were not very good-looking.
Li Qian then asked: "Prime Minister Yan, has the army's food and grass been allocated?"
Yan Song hurriedly handed over his hand and replied: "Your Majesty, the Ministry of Revenue has already begun to allocate food and grass. Although there are a few more imperial guards for this expedition, they will be completed within three days."
"good!"
Li Qian's eyes lit up: "Then we will swear an oath in the southern suburbs in three days, and I will personally encourage the officers and soldiers of the Imperial Army!"
Three days later it was the day of the morning court. I could go to the swearing-in ceremony and escape the morning court, which was perfect.
"Your Majesty, Holy Ming!"
The civil servants hurriedly stood up and praised him. When the generals on the other side saw the situation, they had to hold their noses and accept the result.
"Your Majesty, Holy Ming!"
"Is there anything else?" Li Qian glanced at the officials below.
No one responded.
"Retreat!"
Li Qian wanted to stand up, wave his sleeves and leave gracefully, bringing a perfect end to this morning meeting.
But he forgot that his muscles and bones were still soft. With a sudden force, he almost lost his balance and saw that Li Qian was about to fall. He was fortunate to become the emperor who died in the most bizarre way in the history of Daqian.
Fortunately, the old eunuch next to him had quick eyesight and quick hands, and he helped the Emperor.
Li Qian's expression remained unchanged, as if nothing had happened, and he let Wei Zhongxian support him and walked towards the back of the palace.
Well, as long as I'm not embarrassed, you will be the ones embarrassed.
Fortunately, most of the ministers kept their heads down and were busy with their own business, and only a few people saw this scene.
…
Behind the Qianyang Palace, the sky is clear and the red palace walls are majestic.
"Your Majesty, are you going to the Ziwei Palace or the Harem?" The old eunuch helped Li Qian get on the shoulder carriage.
"Come to Ziwei Palace!" Li Qian waved his hand and leaned against his shoulder.
He was quite satisfied with the outcome of today's court meeting.
At the end of the court meeting, the generals didn't want him to go to the southern suburbs to take the oath, probably because they didn't want him to appear in front of the forbidden troops.
Although the Imperial Guards were under their command, they were still nominally loyal to the emperor.
When the late emperor was in power, he was considered a homebody and rarely appeared in front of the Imperial Guard.
As time passed, the soldiers only knew about the generals, but not about the emperor.
Now if Li Gan showed up in front of those people and led them to swear an oath, it would surely reawaken the dormant understanding of the emperor in the hearts of the Forbidden Army soldiers.
This was the idea of the military attachés, but those civilian officials continued to support Li Qian in going to the southern suburbs, which surprised him.
You must know that the civil servant group in the previous life was the emperor's biggest opponent, especially during the Song and Ming Dynasties. On the surface, they used the slogan of respecting the imperial power, but in fact, their actions subconsciously restricted the imperial power.
They reduce the emperor's power, restrict the emperor's personal freedom, accuse the emperor of moral stains... Emperors with a slightly softer temperament or slightly inferior means will be PUA by them.
Not every emperor can be an old Taoist priest in Jiajing.
However, at the court meeting just now, the civil servants continued to support Li Qian in going to the southern suburbs to swear an oath and let him appear in front of the imperial army.
Li Qian hadn't fully understood the reason behind it in Chao Shang, but after coming out and wandering around in a carriage for a while, he gradually understood it.
The difference between Daqian and the previous Ming Dynasty is that the noble generals in the middle and late Ming Dynasty were all trained to be obedient by the civil servants, but the generals in Daqian were all coaxed.
This time I set out to conquer Wu, I knew with my butt that I would not lose.
Once the war is over, the military commanders who return in triumph will surely have a great reputation.
At this time, the power of the civil and military parties will inevitably become unbalanced, which requires the imperial power to intervene and share the authority of the generals.
Winning this battle depends on the prestige of His Majesty the Emperor, and it is not all your fault!
Looking at the majestic red walls and yellow tiles in the distance, Li Qian sighed quietly. It turned out that it was not just himself who wanted to play balance, but the civil servants were also playing balance.
"Your Majesty, Ziwei Palace has arrived."
After leaving the carriage, with the support of the old eunuch, Li Qian came to the political hall again and made up for his breakfast.
"Fengxian, I will go to the southern suburbs to swear my oath in three days. I'd better reduce my strength these days."
The swearing ceremony has to be done, and it is best not to interrupt Baduanjin. Li Qian is still looking forward to the effect of this practice.
"Yes, foster father."
Lu Bu patted his chest and said, "I will definitely not delay my adoptive father's business!"
Seeing him like this, Li Qian suddenly became curious: "Fengxian, do you want to go on an expedition with the Forbidden Army and make meritorious deeds?"
When Lu Bu heard these words, his heart suddenly moved.
It's time for me, Lu Feng, to express my loyalty.
"Father!"
Lu Bu's face was heavy, and he suddenly raised his hands and said: "A man should make great achievements in his life, and since he has made great achievements in his life, Bu is more willing to serve at the knees of his adoptive father and fulfill his filial piety."
