Chapter 518 Did you sleep well last night?
The emergence of the Central Imperial Guard of the Ming Dynasty made the forces of all sizes in the capital suddenly confused.
When did this army appear?
It's a thief!
I said that Cao Wenzhao has disappeared during this period and there is no movement at all.
It turned out that I went to train troops!
But the biggest problem is here.
Where does the food come from? Where does the military capital come from?
It’s okay to say that it’s hard to find a toad with three legs in the Ming Dynasty, but a person with two legs is really worthless.
It can be said that as long as you can afford to pay, you don’t even need to pay. As long as you can afford to pay food and give them a full meal, how much do you want to have that person?
So the only question in the minds of those people came, where did the food come from?
Where did Your Majesty get the food?
After counting, they found that there were more than 40,000 people and horses, and the war horses were at least 25,000. How much food did this man need to eat horses? Such a large amount of food was transported there without knowing it?
How did this be done?
The gods descended to earth?
This method is really scary, and no one knows how Zhu Youxiao did it.
So the capital city, which was just surging undercurrents, immediately calmed down.
No one of the officials is a fool, and no one can tell what the emperor means.
He was showing off his military power naked, and before he knew it, the emperor had already mastered so much military power.
In the Cao family's mansion, Zhou Yanru and Cao Sicheng were drinking tea together.
"Mr. Cao, we have all misread Your Majesty..." Zhou Yanru took a sip of tea and looked at Xingchen outside the sky and didn't know what he was thinking.
"Yes, who would have thought that such a large army suddenly appeared in His Majesty's hands?" Cao Sicheng also drank tea in a daze.
"It seems that we are all wrong. Your Majesty's ambition is beyond the comparison of the late emperor." Zhou Yanru smiled and shook his head.
"Yes, Your Majesty's ambition is beyond the comparison of the previous emperor." Cao Sicheng also shook his head and continued to speak as Zhou Yanru's words.
But Zhou Yanru did not see the glimmer in Cao Sicheng's eyes. If he saw it, he would doubt this old boy. He must have hidden something important from them, and this matter would definitely cost them their lives.
"What should we do next?" Zhou Yanru put down the teacup, and the water inside was already dry.
"Your Majesty is powerful, and you can only leave without moving your troops." Cao Sicheng also put down the teacup, and the water inside was also dry.
"It's just a pity that the Ministry of Rites. In this way, Meng Shaoyu lost all the value of utilization. What a pity that Meng Shaoyu sent the Ministry of Rites to His Majesty!" Zhou Yanru slapped the table, and his face instantly became very ferocious.
This expression went from being as light as water to being excited to transform in an instant, and it was really faster than a dog's turn against each other.
The six divisions are basically controlled by His Majesty now. How could Zhou Yanru not be excited?
Xu Guangqi is now devoted to following His Majesty, and his relationship with them has also been cut off. From then on, the Ministry of Works has nothing to do with them anymore.
There is also the Minister of War Wen Tiren, who is simply a dog raised by His Majesty. As soon as he took office, he suppressed their people in the Ministry of War and transferred all their people from the critical position.
Zhou Yingqiu, the Minister of Personnel, is a standard eunuch party. They do not expect Zhou Yingqiu to listen to them. This is the person they must defeat, but unfortunately there is no chance now.
Originally, they wanted to force His Majesty to make concessions and kill Zhou Yingqiu through Meng Shaoyu's lead, and find a way to get the Ministry of Personnel. At least they had to put their own people in the key position of Wenxuan Department.
This position is really important. Even in their eyes, the Minister of Personnel may not be of this position, because it is related to the appointment of local officials.
Since the doctor of the Wenxuan Department was controlled by Zhou Yingqiu, they have become increasingly feeling that the difficulty of mobilizing officials has increased exponentially.
Officials above the fourth rank have too big goals, so they basically have to discuss with the court, and the Minister of Rites cannot make a decision. However, officials below the fourth rank have too great operability. As long as they are obtained from the Wenxuan Department, will the officials in Jiangnan be arranged by them?
Hateful! It's so hateful!
Zhou Yanru picked up the cup irritably, but failed to drink water and threw the cup on the table.
However, Cao Sicheng poured water for himself and drank leisurely.
He is not as urgent as Zhou Yanru. On the contrary, he has been very leisurely recently, thanks to his temporary wisdom, who defected to His Majesty before he was pulled into the water.
Now he is considered an insider, so the stronger His Majesty's power, he won't worry about anything.
But the only bad thing is that I didn’t agree to resign from the superiors twice.
But this is nothing. Anyway, you can read it according to the script given by His Majesty every time.
Sometimes it is also a very good thing to be a puppet that you don’t have to think about anything.
If he hadn't been able to go back to his hometown now, he would have really wanted to tease his children and grandchildren.
"Mr. Cao, you don't seem to be in a hurry at all?" Zhou Yanru looked at Cao Sicheng with a strange look.
"I have something to worry about? If it weren't for you, I would have gone back to my hometown to tease my children and grandchildren." Cao Sicheng didn't care. He did not hide his feelings, because hiding it would reveal himself. To be honest, it would be great.
Sure enough, Zhou Yanru didn't think much about it. It was true. Cao Sicheng had nothing to be anxious about. He had already made all the money he should have, and he had no ambitions now.
The situation is not conducive to our side. It seems that we can only retreat temporarily recently. Let’s wait for Mr. Han to make a decision after returning to Beijing.
However, it is quite possible that the Ministry of Revenue’s key Qingguansi are still in their hands.
As long as these Qingye Departments are not moved, there will be no problems with Jiangnan money and grain. There is also the key Shandong Qingye Department, and the national salt tax cannot be lost.
It's so annoying!
Zhou Yanru felt that his head seemed to explode.
"Sweep~~~~"
Before dawn, the officials were already shrank their necks and waiting in front of the palace gate.
The atmosphere among the officials today was a little nervous, especially those who participated in the quiet kneeling in front of Chengtian Gate, all of them felt as if they were silenced.
Today's court meeting is not here, so this was specially added by Your Majesty. Why? It's not for liquidation.
Who is liquidating?
Who else can there be besides them?
When the time comes, the civil and military ministers entered Fengtian Gate in an orderly manner according to the process.
"Long live my emperor!"
After a long time, Zhu Youxiao started.
You can't say that he is not sleepy at all today, but he is very energetic, very good-looking.
In the past, you were all here to fight me, but now the feng shui changes. Today, when I come to my house, I should be proud of me now.
