Chapter 913 The meaning of the Son of Heaven
After Song Pu finished speaking, there was silence in Hanyuan Hall. The ministers were silent and each organized their own ideas.
For example, Wei Hong, a senior secretary of Wenhua Palace, is a group of people who react faster.
Today's discussion: Wei Qihou attacked Qi Chi and brought out Jia Huan. When Zi asked a question today, Hua Mo explained that Song Pu used this to attack Zhang Anbo and Jia Huan and tied up the two. I was afraid that the emperor would have a view in his heart.
Emperor Yongzhi sat high on the imperial throne, slightly hunched, looking down at the ministers and patrolling his eyes.
Emperor Yongzhi had been the emperor for many years, and it was impossible for Song Pu to attack Zhang Anbo to do whatever he wanted. Otherwise, the political struggle of the Yongzhi Dynasty would be too simple and had no technical content at all!
When the political level of Zi is not so low today, he will be at peace when the ministers fight. Is it necessary for him to rush to be a knife for Song Pu? Emperor Jiajing of Ming Dynasty was a monkey slip for his ministers in his later years, and he was unwilling to do so!
Although Zhang Anbo disliked him, he would not have been demoted. This man was indeed a loyal minister. As for Jia Huan, he would execute him before his death. Such a person, both civil and military, would definitely not be able to suppress him. Jia Huan's actions in the Western Regions were tied to Qi Chi, so he was temporarily inappropriate to fight.
He is not a foolish monarch. Qi Chi made such great contributions: Ding the Western Regions and pacifying the North of Mo, would he still hold him accountable? He was in a dizzy mind?
Emperor Yongzhi's eyes finally fell on Song Pu and he said slowly: "I understand."
Song Pu did not say more. He said, "I ask Your Majesty to be careful", rather than "I ask Your Majesty to punish you severely."
This is normal. How can a political struggle be sued in one complaint? For example, Hua Mo seems to be a writer who defeated Ji Xingsheng, but how long did the two fight before? He only needs to plant a deep thorn in the heart of the emperor. There will be a day when it will work.
Emperor Yongzhi said again: "My intention has been decided. I will be promoted to the left censor Zhang Anbo as the Minister of Works. He promoted Qi Chi, the governor of the Western Regions, to the left censor, to the Duke of Wei, and to the wife and son. All the generals under his command have their own rewards.
Duke of Qing, Shen Cheng, was a hero of the family. His eldest son died in the Western Regions. His second son, Shen Qian, took over his brother's ambitions and served the country. He was appointed King of Xincheng and transferred to the position of the General of the Governor of the Five Army. Shen Qian was appointed General of the Cavalry. Shen Yu, the famous general of the State of Qiao, should not disappoint me."
Hua Mo led his ministers to shout, "I obey the order!"
The ministers were a little surprised and had different ideas when Emperor Yongzhi's will.
Regarding Zhang Anbo's position adjustment, it was somewhat unexpected. First, some time ago, Zhang Anbo caused trouble for the emperor on the Holy Birthday Day. At this time, Song Pu reported the matter again, but it still had some effect.
Secondly, it can be seen that the current emperor has no intention of punishing Zhang Anbo, but he has already shown an impatient attitude.
What surprised the ministers was that the emperor rewarded the Western Regions with very high standards! What is the title of Duke of Wei? The descendant of Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan in the Ming Dynasty, was the title of Duke of Wei. This was a commendation for Qi's achievements in pacifying the Western Regions and pacifying the Mobei North.
Duke of Qing Guo Shen Cheng was a native of the capital, and his ancestral home is from Xincheng County, Baoding Prefecture, Northern Zhili. This time he was named the king and the title was his ancestral home. He glorified his ancestors! It shows the emperor's intentions.
In addition, Shen Qianwusan official was the second-rank general of the cavalry, which was the official position of Huo Qubing, a famous general of the Han Dynasty. Both were young and famous generals! They were all over the grassland! It can be seen that the emperor’s expectations for him! His official rank was the second-rank general, and on the one hand, he was awarded his father, and on the other hand, he probably also wanted to avoid being unable to be granted in the future.
This person is very popular in the future!
Chen Qian will marry the third girl of the Jia family on the 20th day of the first lunar month. The potential of Chen Qian has long been seen by the officials in the capital. They will give gifts. However, now, many important officials have considered changing the gift list and giving a heavy gift!
After the matter was discussed, in just a moment, Emperor Yongzhi on the imperial throne had already shown fatigue. The three great scholars were conscious and led all the important ministers Shankhou to leave the hall.
News from Hanyuan Hall spread throughout the capital later.
…
…
Zhang Anbo was transferred to his official position, Qi Chi was transferred to the capital, Qing Duke was granted the title of king, and Shen was promoted to General of Cavalry.
Every piece of information is enough to stir up the capital, let alone release it together? The public opinion in the capital was in full bloom on the morning of the 13th day of the first lunar month!
The person involved, Qi Chi's mansion, can be imagined. There is no need to express gratitude at this time. The official reward meeting was announced at the Lantern Festival. There were many visitors from both mansions and firecrackers. The family members and housekeepers of the Chen Mansion were discussing the replacement of the door plaque: Shen Mansion is now the royal mansion!
As for Zhang Mansion, the Wendao Academy learned the news, you can imagine how dim the news was!
Near noon, the soft winter sun shines on the West Garden, with water pavilions, strange flowers and grasses, and mottled light and shadows. It has a quiet and lazy smell.
Qi Chi, the governor of the Western Regions, was not in his mansion, but in the class room outside the Xiyuan Imperial Study, waiting for the emperor to summon him. He sat in the chair, drank the tea presented by the eunuchs, and leisurely looked at the beautiful scenery of the Xiyuan.
This is the casual mentality after the war.
…
…
After Emperor Yongzhi summoned all his ministers, he came out of Hanyuan Hall. The eunuch general manager Xu Yan asked someone to prepare a carriage sedan and carried the emperor away from Hanyuan Hall and into the imperial study.
Emperor Yongzhi rested in the soft couch in the study for a long time, drank a bowl of ginseng soup before gradually regaining some vitality, sat in the dragon throne, and said, "Xuan Qichi comes in."
"Xuan Qichi's visit!"
"Xuan Qichi's visit!"
The eunuchs listed in the various ceremonies of the Imperial Study Room were listed in groups of eunuchs from the Imperial Study Room to outside the hall. After a while, a little eunuch took Qi Chi into the Imperial Study Room.
Qi Chi was in his fifties, wearing a second-rank civil servant's robe, square face and long beard, kneeling on the golden brick, shouting long live, and bowing to Emperor Yongzhi.
"Qi Qing is flat!" Emperor Yong Zhi held the dragon chaise and looked at Qi Chi with envy, unable to help but ask, "How old is Qi Qing?"
Qi Chi was stunned and replied, "I am fifty-four years old this year."
Emperor Yongzhi sighed, "Qi Qing is a few years older than me. But his body is much stronger than me." Without waiting for Qi Chi to flatter him, he waved his hand. Life and death are destined to be destined. He could not take it lightly. He directly got to the point: "Just just now, Hanyuan Palace has decided to discuss matters, and I have transferred Qi Qing as the left censor and granted Duke of Wei."
The emperor gave his kindness, how could Qi Chi not cooperate? He immediately knelt down and expressed his loyalty, saying, "I thank Your Majesty for your kindness!"
Emperor Yongzhi looked at Qi Chi, smiled and said, "Qi Qing went out of the capital that day and said that if he did not destroy the Hulu, he would not enter Yumen Pass in this life. Now that he has pacified the Hulu, why should I beg for rewards? But, I have something unknown, why would Qi Qing deceive the emperor and not repay Jia Huan's merits? In Qi Qing's eyes, is I a fool who rewards and punishes the uncle who is unknown?"
Qi Chi knelt on the gold brick, not knowing how to answer for a while.
In winter, I don’t know if it was because the imperial study was warm and there was a little sweat on my forehead. The emperor’s turn was a bit abrupt. It was impossible for the Jinyiwei to report the matters in the Western Regions, but the emperor questioned him in person, which was a bit stressful.
After a while, Qi Chi confessed: "I dare not. I am guilty. I am selfish. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."
Frank confession is also an art. It doesn’t mean that you have to admit whatever the emperor says is a crime. Those three heads are not enough for the emperor to cut off. Of course, Qi Chi would not admit it. He just felt that the emperor would not reward Jia Huan.
Jia Huan made great contributions in the Western Regions, with his current mean temperament, he could find a crime and write an edict to kill Jia Huan.
His friendship with Jia Huan sold Jia Huan's favor in Jinman that day. At that time, he was of course "resisting" in front of the imperial court to protect Jia Huan. He has great achievements. It is not a big mistake to admit that the credit for occupying subordinates.
Emperor Yongzhi looked at Qi Chi with a smile, and the eyes were filled with cold sweat on Qi Chi's back. This is the power of the emperor!
Emperor Yongzhi passed away for 21 years, and this was a mature emperor. Of course, it was a very oppressive feeling to his subordinates.
Emperor Yongzhi thought: If he had been talking nonsense in front of him in ten years, Qi Chi would have been in the center of power for only five years. Unfortunately... he could not help himself! Qi Chi made great contributions, and he would definitely not be able to move Qi Chi within one or two years.
Otherwise, who would still serve the country? On that day, Emperor Wanli of the Ming Dynasty confiscated the home of the emperor Zhang Juzheng, resulting in none of the ministers behind him dared to take responsibility! Zhang Juzhengluo, who died of tiredness for the country, would he be willing to work for the country?
In other words, he had to recognize Qi Chi's explanation today.
After about half a cup of tea, Qi Chi felt that his body was almost wet. Emperor Yongzhi said: "Qi Qing has made great contributions to the country, and I will not pursue some trivial matters. Jia Huan has a lot of ideas!"
Qi Chi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I obey the order!"
He passed this time. However, looking at the emperor's comments, it seems to be very unfavorable to Jia Huan. He is in the middle of the capital, so it is difficult for him to interact with Jia Huan again. Moreover, he has to consider helping Jia Huan talk. The emperor's thugs are very obvious.
