The Secret History of the Ming Dynasty: There are different opinions on how to open the horse market when the cunning princes and ministers are at a loss.

In the Ming Dynasty, Anda, the leader of the northern ethnic minorities, led a large number of troops to Beijing, plundered along the way, and set an anonymous fire to burn all the houses outside the capital. The people were homeless, fled east and scattered west, and most of them were killed. When they met robbers, they were either killed or captured. Half of them are slaves of this class, except for ugly aging. Qiu Luan is afraid of An San. Because he listened to Shiyi and Hou, he courted the court and reluctantly joined the aid, that is, went to the capital. How dare he hit Anshan? Had to still send Shi Yi and Hou Rong, and then to intercede. When I arrived at Anda camp, I saw Anda sitting on a Hu bed, accompanied by several women, all ready-made trophies and temporary wives. They don't care about honesty at all, so they have to knock on their knees. I replied, "What are you doing here? I think it will be difficult for you to be kind to your master if you send me gold coins again. " Shi Yi said, "It is not difficult for your majesty to ask for gold coins, but he went deep into Gyeonggi and shook the palace. He was afraid that my emperor would get suspicious, but he refused to give it to them. " I replied, "I don't want to take your capital. I only teach mutual tribute, and I can withdraw my troops if I get some benefits every year. " Shi Yi said, "It's easy. I want to report to you. " The two men went back to revenge Luan, and Luan heard that the emperor was interested in the main battle, but he did not dare to smell it at the moment. Anda stayed for three days without any news. Instead, he sent a patrol to Dongzhimen, entered the royal stable, robbed eight jailers and returned to Luying. Anda didn't kill him, but let him all go and said kindly and soothingly, "I'm sorry to bother you to deliver the book." I have a book, and I give it to your Lord. " Then he took out the letter and gave it to eight people. Eight people got their lives, paid their bills, ran back to Dongzhimen, went to town to see Sejong, and submitted letters. The theme of the book is nothing more than seeking mutual exchange, please pass on the tribute, and don't regret it if you don't follow it at the end. Sejong read it, went to Xiyuan, summoned Yan Song, Li Ben and Xu Jie, senior minister, and sent a book and asked, "What do you think?" Yan Song read a book and made a lot of threats. He doesn't think it's easy to solve. This is neither suitable for him nor for him. At this moment, he frowned and began to say, "I wrote back and asked for a tribute, which is related to the Ministry of rites." Your majesty can ask the Ministry of rites in detail. " Xu Jie, the minister of rites, secretly scolded, "Old thief! Are you going to frame someone else? " As soon as I thought about it, I began to say, "Although the minister is in charge, I must also report to the holy judge." Sejong said: "It matters a lot. Everyone is familiar with the business. " He pondered for a long time, then said, "Now Kou is in deep trouble, which has alarmed the Ling Temple, but I am in a dilemma, so I can't make a move. It seems that I should allow it when I am in power, so I can talk about it in a hurry. " Sejong said, "What a pity if you are willing to retire." Step replied, "if you only spend a little money on pearls and jadeite, why not?" But I'm afraid he has to make progress and push his luck. What can he do? " Sejong frowned and said, "Your concern is far-reaching, but how can you let Kou ride in the suburbs now?" "I have a plan," said the soldier. When An Shan came to write a book, it was all in Chinese. I only said that it was hard for him to trust China people, and there was no reason to threaten to pay tribute in the city. Now it's time to step back, don't leave it as a model, and let Datong Chen Shou play it for him before you can allow it. If he really retreats, I will send reinforcements quickly and gather in Gyeonggi. At that time, if allowed, allowed, I will fight with him, not to embarrass him. "Sejong nodded and said yes, and ordered it. & gt& gt Since the imperial edict has been delivered, the heirs must answer it accurately and make 3,000 people pay tribute, otherwise, they will send more troops here and swear to break the capital. Seeing this book, I first called a meeting of officials to announce that Anda had come to the book. The officials were dumbfounded and dared not speak. Suddenly, a man shouted: "I want to fight the main battle, there is no need to make peace." When Xu Jie saw that he was the son, he asked, "What's your master's plan?" ? "Zhen Ji said," if you are allowed to pay tribute today, he will choose three thousand elite riders and enter the city immediately. Yang said that tribute was paid, and Yin Tu had to be attacked inside and outside. How can you resist the enemy? It will make him truly understand that there will be no unexpected changes. It will also be Enemy at the Gates, opening China and humiliating the enemy. I would rather die of shame! " Looking back at Mao Qi's interface, he said, "Who doesn't know the main battlefield? But today, if you want to fight without capital, you have to bring it up temporarily, invite you to do a blockade, and then discuss the combat readiness. " Zhen Ji said angrily, "If you want to fight, just fight, why hesitate! The situation is very cunning. Will you listen to me? " Xu Jie saw two people quarreling, knowing that he couldn't make up his mind, so he just got up and went to play by himself. & gt& gt is a big fire outside the city at dusk, and the more it burns, the fiercer it gets. Desheng and stability are unified into scorched earth. Sejong looked west, only to see smoke soaring into the sky and staying up all night. He couldn't help scratching his head for help. The chamberlain also whispered to each other about the court discussion during the day, and Sejong heard it and asked for details, even though Zhao Zhenji was declared correct. Zhen Ji was ordered to arrive, and Sejong gave him a pen and paper to express his opinions. Zhen Ji immediately sent a letter to Zhishu to the effect that: "We should fight with Kou to ride the mausoleum. Today, Your Majesty should personally serve the Imperial Gate of Fengtian, make a letter to himself, and reward Company Commander Zhou, so as to encourage Bian Shuai, release Shen Shu from prison, clear the way and defend the city with * * *, and announce that all the soldiers in each battalion have made meritorious deeds. Sejong was very moved by this, so he appointed Zhuo Zhenji as Zuo Yude of Zuo Chunfang, also supervised the Henan Road Imperial History, and sent 52,000 pieces of silver to the Ministry to announce troops. However, Zhen Ji's invitation to pursue various articles has not yet been held. At that time, Anda had plundered for eight days. After expecting too much, he adjusted his trench and set off for Aries. Qiu Luan was ordered to pursue, but Luan was helpless and sent his troops to chase after the enemy. Unexpectedly, the enemy soldiers returned to the pool, and Qiu Luan hurried back. The soldiers also dispersed in an instant, and when the enemy soldiers turned around, they slowly made up for it, and then counted the casualties and checked the numbers, which had caused more than 1,000 casualties. On the way, Luan rebelled and beheaded the corpse, and got more than eighty grades. He only said that Lu's head was cut off, which contributed to the good news. Sejong believed it, gave him an excellent letter of condolence, added Luan Taibao, and gave him a generous gift of gold and silk. & gt& gt Beijing officials heard that Kou Zhong had retreated and celebrated each other. Unexpectedly, there was a strict order, so senior minister Ding Rukui was arrested and imperial envoy Yang Shouqian was put in prison. Originally, in the northwest of Beijing, many courtiers' gardens were built. Since they were set on fire by bandits, they were inevitably burned. My minister joined the WTO, saying that Ding and Yang were restraining the generals and were not allowed to go to war. As a result, the flames spread to the whole suburb, which surprised my emperor and begged them to be punished for the future police. Sejong was furious and immediately ordered them to be arrested and bound. Yan Song-educated oil sunflower ordered the battalions to call a truce. At this point, he offended, hurriedly told his family and asked Song for help. Song Yulai said, "I'm still alive. I won't let Ding Gong die." Come here. Thank you. When Song Chi went to see the emperor and talked about Ding Rukui, Sejong flew into a rage and said, "You are ungrateful to me and you can't thank your subjects if you don't kill you." These words scared Yan Song, so he had to go out without saying a word. To abandon the city and tie Wei Xiao and Shou Qian to the altar, Wei Xiao said, "The thief wronged me! The thief misunderstood me! " Words didn't say that finish, and a knife is light, the head is divided into two points. Shouqian also beheaded in turn, needless to elaborate. & gt& gt A day later, another decree was issued to try to arrest Zuo Liangyu de Zhao Zhenji. The reader heard! It's too much for this Zhao Zhenji to play a symmetrical theme. How could he offend out of thin air? First, after the discussion, Zhen Jiting was arrogant, but it was no longer a problem. Zhen Ji is angry with people. He said that he was deliberately making things difficult and quarreling. Suddenly a man came in and said with a smile, "What's the first step?" Military is important, just think about it slowly. Zhen Ji thought it was Yan Song's adopted son Zhao Wenhua. "。 The official bowed to the general political envoy and couldn't help resenting: "It's like waiting for the door of power to be a running dog. How much do you know about the world? " Then I walked away. Wenhua didn't argue with many people, so she laughed and immediately informed Yan Song that Song hated him. After retiring, Anda said, "Zhen Ji talks big and has no plan. She only lobbied and vilified Zhou and Shen Shu. " This sentence aroused Sejong's anger again, so he ordered Zhen Ji to be detained for a long time and gave him a beating, which is called History of Libo. & gt& gt During the main battle in Zhen Ji, courtiers stood by and disagreed. Only a small official died the most lowly. "Said Zhao Caiqing voice, right? Prime Minister Xia Bangmo stared at Zhang Mu and said, "What kind of official are you talking here?" ? "The man immediately replied," don't you know that jinyi experienced Shen Re? I have to say, the public minister has nothing to build. Why does Rhenium hate the absence of a country, which leads to rampant bandits? If we use 10,000 horses to protect the mausoleum, use 10,000 horses to protect the salary of Tongzhou, and then unite with more than 100,000 diligent kings to defeat the bandits, we will surely win. Why do they keep vacillating? Bang Mo said, "Listen to the emperor yourself." We're just incompetent. You don't have to tell me for nothing. "Li Yi was so angry that he went into battle with his watch, but sejong completely ignored him. Rheum was unhappy and pretended to be drunk. One day, I went to Shang Baocheng's Zhang Xunye's office for a drink, chatted with each other about state affairs and talked about Yan Song. Rheum stopped for a drink and cried bitterly. Because I came back to my apartment late, I hated it and sighed, "Who hasn't died since ancient times?" Why don't I write a letter to the sore spot today when traitors are in power and loyal ministers are desperate and speechless? I am willing to die. "When I made the plan, I studied the ink and made a statement, saying: Last year, I broke the rules and your majesty wanted to take the opportunity to explore the north. This article was written by Wu, and so was my boss. However, we must count the enemies first, destroy the evil spirits in the world with temples first, and then the foreign invaders can be leveled. Yan Song, a great scholar today, worried about the humiliation of the minister, did not listen to the extension of his visit to Xianhao, but asked for advice. But when he is with his son, he makes plans at his own convenience, and the loyal plans are drawn in many ways. He asked for bribes, buttered up officials and made friends. The court rewarded one person every day, fined one person and fined me one day. Gu listed the crimes committed by this person: accepting bribes from the general and making waves in the border areas; Hidden by the kings, the second is also; The right to take the suggestion, although the state and county petty officials, are borrowed, so that the official is bad, three also; In the Sophomore era, for example, one company undertook the same business, while Yan Yan's wealth was cut every day, and four companies also; Hidden admonition officer, so as not to tell, five also; Be jealous of talents, care about death, and six; Zongzi accepts bribes, which collects the grievances of the world, seven also; Returning home in clothes, there is no empty day in the month, and the road is coquettish, eight also; Those who have lived in * * * for a long time, abuse power and harm politics, nine also; If you can't work together for the sky, you will worry about your father. Knowing what the minister said, it will not be a blessing to make an enemy and rape the right, but it is better to die loyal than to rape the country by mistake. Punish Song for thanking the world today, and kill Xie Song tomorrow. Although I am dead, I will hate it. & gt& gt At this point, I read it once, and then said to myself, "Xia Bangmo Cha is hateful, too, so I hit him illegally." Then he continued to write a few words, nothing more than Xia Bangmo, the official department minister, flattering the goods and asking for punishment. The next day, I went in, just think about it! It's no use for a Royal Guards to unite with a university student and an official minister to let you write with a dragon and snake in your hand and smoke. Besides, Sejong relies heavily on Yan Song, how can he tolerate it? With harsh laws, he was accused of slandering ministers, plundering dozens of names and appointing security guards. At the same time, Xu, a doctor of punishments, and Wang Zongmao, an imperial censor in Nanjing, successively offended Song and jointly offended Song. Learning poetry and chopping books, Zong Mao demoted officials. There are also three officials who study poetry in the same department, all of whom were condemned for illegally slandering the Song Dynasty, and they were called the four remonstrances in Shangyu. In addition, all officials in the Song Dynasty should be tried by the Beijing Inspectorate and condemned with all their efforts. This is a complete sweep, and there is a legacy. & gt& gt However, the Qiuluan Party is attached to Yan Song, and the more it invites its favor as soon as possible, the more it asks Wang Bangrui, the official assistant minister in charge of Ministry of War affairs, to put it in order for a long time. He said briefly, "At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were no fewer than 700,000 to 800,000 battalions in Beijing, from three battalions to twelve regiments, and then to two Guanting, gradually reducing the merger and having more than 380,000 troops. With the accumulation of military equipment, the current membership is only140,000. This is still a nominal reimbursement. In recent years, coach rode deep into the camp, with only 50,000 to 60,000 people, but he was still weak and useless. Since then, there have been policemen. Who will fight? "Why don't you send a well-fed official? Sejong recited a letter to abolish the regimental headquarters and the two battalions, and still restored the old system of the Third Battalion, creating Rong * * *, making Qiu Luan the governor and Bangrui the deputy. Luan not only took the military power, but also wanted to control the frontier generals. Because he let Yi buy three auxiliary gifts, Xu Jue, the company commander of Datong, was stationed in Yizhou, Ren Xu was awarded the company commander department of Datong, and Li Fengming, the company commander of Yuji Town in Fu Xuan, was also equal. And choose the border soldiers to join the guard, was transferred to Beijing camp. If there are policemen in traffic jams and the border does not accept them, they must report to Rong Ming * * * and dispatch them as appropriate. Sejong Zhun, the original play was sent to the Ministry of War. Wang Bangrui thought it was impossible and tried his best to persuade and reprimand. In addition, Qiu Luan was specially given a seal, so that the seal was sealed. All the answers were made by the internal wholesale line, no less than the Ministry of War. Bangrui argued repeatedly, angered Sejong, and even cut his post. After Bangrui's return, Qiu Shuyi was even more unscrupulous, threatening to invade the north on a large scale, ordering the Ministry of Housing to send envoys to Du Nan and other four places, and urging taxes over the years as soldiers' salaries. Xu Jie, a minister of does, took a short break and went to bed. & gt& gt Then came the news of Anda's invasion. Luan was busy ordering righteous men to fill the vacancy, earning gold coins, bribing Anda's adopted son, and was willing to pay tribute to each other without moving troops. I am glad to know that I said this, that is, I sent a letter to inform the Taishou Su, also called Qiu Luan. Luan and Yan Song decided that every spring and autumn, the goods that Anda came in were nothing more than horses beyond the Great Wall, so it was called the horse market.
