Chapter 63: 1 Snow Dragon Riders brought shock! Wang Yangming was stunned!
Wang Yangming said this very calmly and casually.
It seems that entering the celestial realm is no big deal.
But Zhu Houzhao was not an ordinary emperor, his aura could see through everything.
It can also be seen that Wang Yangming's life span was shortened by at least several years.
This is exchanging life for the realm of celestial phenomena!
The reason why Wang Yangming did this was very simple. It was just to enable himself to deal with all crises of the Ming Dynasty more calmly.
If he had not entered the celestial realm and was merely a civil official, he would have let down His Majesty's kindness.
If you treat me like a countryman, I will repay you as a countryman!
...
Zhu Houzhao was also able to sense the meaning behind this.
He said seriously: "If everyone in the Ming Dynasty were people like you who are willing to die."
"Why wouldn't the Ming Dynasty prosper?"
"It's a pity that there are so few people like you in the Ming Dynasty!"
"Most of them are parasites lying on the Ming Dynasty! They only know how to suck the blood of the Ming Dynasty."
"But nothing was done!"
As soon as these words came out.
Wang Yangming also understood how His Majesty wanted to arrange the six ministries in Nanjing.
He even vaguely foresaw the drastic changes that would take place in the officialdom of Jiangnan in the near future.
"Your Majesty is going to suppress the rebellion of Prince Ning."
"To rectify the Jiangnan officialdom, or even to thoroughly clean up the six ministries in Nanjing?"
"If that is the case, I would like to advise Your Majesty to be cautious!"
Wang Yangming was well aware of the shortcomings of the six ministries in Nanjing and the officialdom in the south of the Yangtze River.
But these six ministries in Nanjing and the officialdom in the south of the Yangtze River cannot be easily touched.
Most of the Ming Dynasty's taxes came from Jiangnan and were also concentrated in the hands of the Nanjing court.
If the news that Your Majesty intends to take action against Nanjing gets out.
Wang Yangming couldn't imagine what these people would do.
Should we select a vassal king to quell the rebellion?
Or just set fire to the stockpile?
A case of no evidence after death?
but no matter.
Jiangnan will inevitably fall into complete chaos.
Even the entire Ming Dynasty officialdom will fall into turmoil!
...
Wang Yangming said sincerely: "The evils of Nanjing are not caused by one official or one person."
“Rather, the bureaucracy in Nanjing and Jiangnan has a big problem.”
"These people have formed cliques and colluded with each other to form an enormous group!"
"It is a huge bureaucratic group headed by the Minister of Personnel Xia Yan and the Minister of Revenue Zhang Cong!"
"It is also a group of interests formed by the aristocratic families and powerful people in Jiangnan!"
"Your Majesty, when dealing with these people, you need to be slow, not hasty; you need to be gentle, not hard!"
In fact, in a sense, Wang Yangming himself is also a member of the Jiangnan Group.
Or.
As long as there are scholars who graduated from Jiangnan, who can jump out of this huge net?
Why was the Donglin Party, which was mainly composed of scholars and officials from Jiangnan, able to dominate the court for nearly forty years in the late Ming Dynasty?
And how could such a huge party be formed? !
Could it happen overnight?
Of course not!
Instead, the foreshadowing had already been laid during the reign of Zhu Di.
The great Ming Dynasty actually had two courts and two six ministries!
What a ridiculous thing this is.
And under such ridiculous facts, the Nanjing court had already secretly developed an extremely powerful force.
They pushed their own people into the cabinet and even to become prime ministers, and they also opened academies and recruited disciples.
Some of these disciples were from aristocratic families, and some were powerful men.
But whoever it is.
As long as they entered the Jiangnan Academy, they would become members of the Jiangnan bureaucratic system.
Zhu Houzhao certainly has a strong background, but he should not act rashly against these people.
The counterattack that would be triggered would surely be extremely fierce.
.....
Zhu Houzhao knew this of course, and he even understood what these people would do in the future better than Wang Yangming.
He chuckled and said, "Sir, your worries are not without reason."
"But so what?"
"What about the turmoil in the imperial court? What about the collective rebellion of the Jiangnan bureaucrats?"
"The Ming Dynasty has never lacked upright scholars, nor scholars who want to become officials!"
In the historical Ming Dynasty, these people might be difficult to deal with.
Even in this comprehensive martial arts world, these people are somewhat difficult to deal with.
After all, they have controlled the court in Nanjing for many years and have long since taken root in every aspect of the Ming Dynasty.
There are plenty of their people in the court!
It is the same in the martial arts world!
Even the captains in the army may be their men.
But so what? !
Zhu Houzhao didn't need to mobilize any imperial guards or local troops to attack them.
There is no need to use any court political means.
He relied on the great sage Wang Yangming and the nuclear warhead of Beiliang Xu Yanbing.
There are also tens of thousands of snow dragon riders in the system space!
In the face of absolute force, in a situation where all nine clans are in danger.
Are these people really so united?
Do you really dare to go against the will of heaven?!
...
Wang Yangming looked at Zhu Houzhao with a suspicious expression: "What does your Majesty rely on?"
He could naturally feel Zhu Houzhao's confidence.
But Wang Yangming couldn’t figure out what Your Majesty was relying on?
Three thousand great snow dragon riders?
That is certainly a good foundation.
But how could these people alone wipe out the entire Nanjing!
"Yangming, did you see the Snow Dragon Rider on your way to the palace?"
Zhu Houzhao had a smile on his face: "How many troops would be needed to shock the entire Jiangnan region with this?"
How many troops?
Wang Yangming hesitated for a moment and said, "At least ten thousand!"
This is still his estimate.
We want to make those people settle down.
I'm afraid it's not just a military deterrent, but also requires a sharp move like the Western Factory.
"How many more Western Factory guards are needed?" Zhu Houzhao asked again.
"That doesn't take much."
Wang Yangming gradually understood, but his expression became more suspicious: "I'm afraid that as long as the Western Factory Supervisor goes there, those people will be trembling. Although they form a huge interest group, as long as Your Majesty does not want to completely destroy the entire Jiangnan Group, they will not do anything against the will of heaven."
There is no Donglin Party in Nanjing at present.
Even the Donglin Party in the late Ming Dynasty had internal factional struggles!
This is also what Wang Yangming said just now. He was just advising Your Majesty to deal with these people gently and slowly.
Rather than letting these people go.
"I will give you 10,000 Snow Dragon Riders and 1,000 Western Factory Troops!"
Zhu Houzhao said calmly: "If ten thousand Snow Dragon Riders are not enough, then twenty thousand!"
As soon as these words came out.
Wang Yangming's previous conjecture came true in an instant.
He couldn't hide his inner shock: "Twenty thousand?!"
"Are they all the great snow dragon riders that I saw before?!"
Not to mention twenty thousand.
Even if there are 10,000 Great Snow Dragon Riders, the Ming Dynasty shouldn't have them!
It was beyond everyone's expectation that the late emperor could hide three thousand Snow Dragon Riders.
How can they hide 20,000 Snow Dragon Riders? ! !
Zhu Houzhao smiled but said nothing: "Come with me to see your Great Snow Dragon Cavalry."
Wang Yangming was willing to force himself into the master of astronomy for the sake of gratitude.
Zhu Houzhao naturally didn't mind revealing a little bit of his background!
