Chapter 2741 Gui Scroll: Burning fire and stacking fuel
"Then Ziying, what are you going to do? Well, so you're going to..." Lian Guoshi felt a little out of breath.
He has not paid much attention to military affairs.
In his impression, the army seems to be very docile and obedient. Whether it is Feng Ziying or Sun Chengzong, they seem to be able to command the army very well. From countering the rebellion to conquering Jiangnan to confronting the Jianzhou Jurchens, the border troops and even the Beijing camp seem to be
There were all orders and prohibitions, but after hearing the unfinished meaning in Feng Ziying's words today, Lian Guoshi realized that the situation did not seem to be as good as imagined.
The scene of the Ningxia rebellion more than ten years ago slowly echoed in my mind.
At that time, I had just entered the official position, and the battle was thrilling.
The entire northwest was rotten. The three sides and four towns were in ruins except Yulin Town, which was controlled by Feng Ziying's father Feng Tang. The two towns of Gansu and Ningxia were all rotten, and Guyuan Town was abandoned.
If the imperial court had not been so resolute, Chai Ke, Yang He and Feng Tang would have joined forces to suppress the war, and even proactively contacted the Tumote people outside the Pass to cut off their foreign aid. In the end, they had to resort to recruiting troops to win the war.
And now the commander-in-chief of Shanxi Town, Liu Dongyang, and the commander-in-chief of Jiangbei Town, Liu Baichuan, were the two leaders of the rebels at that time. The thought of practicing state affairs here made my heart tremble.
At this time, Feng Ziying suddenly mentioned it, which made Lian Guoshi realize that the Great Peripheral Army has never been a good person, but it seems to have become much more peaceful in the past ten years.
That's because the border troops are constantly expanding. Even if Gan-Ning merged with Guyuan and was abolished, Denglai, Dongjiang and Jiangbei towns were added. In fact, the number of troops was still expanding.
Now it is suddenly said that hundreds of thousands of soldiers will be laid off. Those are the leaders and subordinates of these soldiers. Faced with this situation, can they enforce the orders and prohibitions as before?
"We are in a dilemma. Disarmament is necessary, but we must have a strategy and a comprehensive plan. We also need to make proper arrangements for those who have been laid off. But now it is obvious that neither the government nor the opposition have this consensus, even on the issue of Zixian (Xu Guangqi)
Shangdu all agreed with Zishu, Zishu and the others, while others clamored for immediate abolition." Feng Ziying spread her hands with a wry smile.
This must also be because of his close relationship with the army. Feng Ziying is also very aware of this, but he is unwilling to point it out, which is meaningless.
"So you plan to use troops to resolve Mongolia?" Lian Guoshi gradually understood.
"That's okay." Feng Ziying clasped her hands together and rubbed them, her eyes a little deeper, "I don't want to cause war to break out because of disarmament, but from now on, I don't seem to be able to suppress Zi Qiang and them.
There are strong calls for disarmament, so finding a suitable solution may be acceptable to everyone."
Lian Guoshi shook his head, "Ziying, you are taking a gamble. Don't worry about whether you can satisfy them and agree to it. If you use troops against Mongolia hastily and hastily, once you are frustrated and disadvantaged, public opinion will backfire, and they will be even more..."
It’s hard to describe national affairs in more intense terms at this time, it’s too hurtful.
"What's not good to say? Isn't it just forcing the uterus?" Feng Ziying smiled, "Sometimes I feel that it has only been a month, but the situation seems to have changed drastically. There was a lot of laughter and laughter at the court, and everyone was happy.
A month later, the situation was raging, and opposition continued. I really wanted to never hide my own views. I never hid my views in the government, reformed the imperial examinations, promoted industry and commerce, promoted the promotion of new crops, and opened up new territories to the outside world.
This is my point of view to avoid taboos, why is it now the target of public criticism?"
Lian Guoshi lowered his head and clicked his tongue for a while before saying: "Ziying, maybe many people agree with some of your views, but some of them will think that you are trying to be new and different to attract attention, and they may not actually implement it, or they may not implement it at all.
Being so radical, who would have thought you would actually fulfill it..."
"Hey, it seems that some people still don't understand my personality and regard me as Liu Ji Gong?" Feng Ziying laughed dumbly.
Gu Bingqian's characteristic is that he easily goes back on his own words and changes course when encountering some pressure. At best, he follows the good and accepts advice with an open mind. At worst, he follows the wind and lacks determination and opinion. Even Feng Ziying
They all took advantage of this characteristic of Gu Bingqian.
"Then Ziying, do you really want to use troops against Mongolia? If so, I'm afraid there will be another disturbance in the court." Lian Guoshi reminded: "They may combine other things to attack you. By then, I
I'm worried that Mr. Ziqiang, Zishu and Youfu may not all support you firmly."
"I also expected this, but what if it doesn't happen like this?" Feng Ziying nodded, "Actually, no matter how good it is, there are always gains and losses. In addition, in this way, we can better distinguish who is the real one.
Our allies, who are the ones who adapt to the wind, and who are our enemies!"
"Have you decided?" Lian Guoshi took a deep breath and asked attentively.
"Although there are thousands of people, I will go." Feng Ziying smiled.
As Lian Guo Shi expected, when the Ministry of War announced the intelligence that Mongolia might face drastic changes and the countermeasures the imperial court was preparing to take, it immediately caused an uproar.
When one side is overwhelmingly questioning the imminent disarmament, they suddenly want to use weapons against Mongolia. This is undoubtedly a disguised way of delaying the disarmament process.
"Why, even Ming Qigong (Huang Ruliang) and Tang Binyin have backed down? Didn't they want to row for Han Jing and Xu Xie? Now I feel that I have become the target of public criticism. I am afraid that it will be hot, and I still feel that I can't hold on.
Already?"
Feng Ziying took a moment to take a sip of tea.
"Haha, maybe there are some. There are too many disputes between North Korea and China. I'm afraid Xu Xie and Han Jing themselves feel that it is better to observe the situation. Huang Tang and Huang Tang naturally feel that they should wait." Wang Wenyan was also very calm.
The foundation of our family has never been on these fallen scholars. As long as the frontier army and the Beijing camp do not fall, as long as the businessmen firmly support them and have guns and money, what are they afraid of?
Besides, there seems to be a lot of noise in the DPRK, but only those people can afford to jump in. More people still question whether the timing is appropriate and how it will affect disarmament.
What's more, it has only been more than a month since the Great Court Meeting. This was decided by a formal vote. If you want to overthrow it, it will be five years later, unless the emperor...
"Hmph, let them make a fuss." Feng Ziying said innocently.
"Ah?" Wang Wenyan was surprised. Doesn't this mean that the cabinet is out of control? "Sir, are you just going to let them do this?"
"What is nonsense? They are all expressing their opinions reasonably. Now there is no consensus within the cabinet. What can we do?" Feng Ziying was very indifferent.
"The problem is that they have now begun to criticize the reform of the imperial examination and the examination law. This is not just an issue about the use of troops and disarmament in Mongolia, but also against the policy agenda of the entire cabinet." Wang Wenyan reminded: "My subordinates feel
This group of people is running around, intending to stir up a bigger storm..."
Feng Ziying's eyes were distant, and after a long while she said in a deep voice: "Perhaps they think they can handle these things better?"
Feng Ziying is ill, seriously ill.
It is said that he had a dispute with the ministers in the Wenyuan Pavilion, and then he had a quarrel with several ministers at the regular meeting of the Central Government. He was so angry that when he returned, he tried to vent his anger on a certain concubine, but he accidentally ended up with it.
I caught a cold and fell ill all of a sudden.
Several cabinet ministers came to visit him. He had a severe fever, his forehead was hot, his face was flushed, and he even talked nonsense.
The imperial doctors from the imperial hospital visited him three times for consultation. They all found that the internal evils were mixed together. In addition, the body and bones could not bear the torment for a long time. There was also internal fire and external cold, so he fell ill all of a sudden.
.
According to the estimation of the imperial doctor, Xiao Feng has rarely been sick for so many years, so this illness is quite severe. It is estimated that he will need to take good care of himself. It will take at least one or two months to slowly recover before he can recover. During this period, he cannot bear any pain.
When you are in a hurry, you cannot worry about fatigue, so it is best not to interfere with court affairs.
Everyone is sick, so all matters should not be taken too seriously, but for the time being, the cabinet affairs are jointly presided over by Cui Jingrong, Chai Ke and Xu Guangqi.
I don't think it's really difficult until I have this whole mess of court affairs thrown into my hands.
Cui Jingrong is in charge of the civil service department, and is responsible for the promotion of the imperial examination. I originally thought that this would be discussed at the court meeting, and both Cui Jingrong and Lian Guoshi agreed very much. They just need to implement it. Unexpectedly, Feng Ziying now
As soon as he fell ill, all kinds of noise began to emerge. Not only were there constant objections within the official department, which believed that some measures were too idealistic and some were too practical, and needed to be studied and readjusted, there were also constant doubts from the outside.
It was believed that the local gentry was treated too lightly, depriving the gentry of their right to participate in local affairs, which would affect many affairs.
Similarly, the imperial examination reform that Cui Jingrong and Wang Yongguang were responsible for encountered greater opposition. A group of people headed by Han Xu, Sun Juxiang, Sun Dingxiang, Li Banghua, and Zhu Guozhen jumped out directly at the regular meeting and resolutely opposed the imperial examination reform and the general
Investigating things, financial accounting and laws were included in the future scientific examination content, and it was even proposed that the proportion of current affairs should also be reduced, and that classics and meaning should still be the main focus.
This was not to mention a reform, it was almost reversing course, and it made Cui Jingrong, Wang Yongguang and others even more angry.
Similarly, Chai Ke and Sun Chengzong were responsible for disarmament. Chai Ke had originally intended to delay the matter temporarily, but he never thought that Han Xu, the Sun brothers, Li Banghua, Zhu Guozhen and others were trying their best to encourage it and demanded that it be started immediately.
, the twelve towns were built into three theater clusters, but the military strength was reduced to less than 600,000, and the use of troops against Mongolia was not even mentioned.
The situation on Xu Guangqi's side is slightly better. He is developing industry and commerce and promoting new crops. This has not encountered much resistance at the local level. However, there are still people in the DPRK who are criticizing his Western religion, which has spread to another Westerner.
This also aroused Xu Guangqi's anger.
The first update is asking for votes! It’s the last few sessions, try to finish it in these two days, and I’m asking for some votes at the end!
