After giving them silence during the matter, Lin Yuezhi said again: "In my fool's opinion, within a few days after the new emperor ascends the throne, he will be on a massive northern expedition."
One of the staff stood up and said, "Liuzhou Huang Xiwen."
"Master." Chang Yuan whispered: "Isn't this person Huang Xiwen the nephew of the Peixian county magistrate? Juren who was in the same department as you back then..."
You Miao nodded, signaling Chang Yuan to listen carefully.
Huang Xiwen: "Brother Lin put it lightly, the six prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River have just been settled, my army is exhausted, and there is no food and grass, so what should I use to go to the northern expedition? The 400,000-strong army only escaped 30,000 when the capital fell, and now there are only 5,000 led by General Nie. The army is stationed in Pei County, and it is necessary to recruit troops. It is impossible to accumulate the strength of the Northern Expedition without ten years. If we start the war rashly, I am afraid that it will easily provoke civil revolt.”
Lin Yuezhi said: "In your opinion, how many people are needed for the Northern Expedition?"
Another pointed at the incident: "At least 100,000 soldiers and horses, three years of food and grass."
Lin Yuezhi said: "Brother Huang has a vision, but the current situation is the best time for the Northern Expedition. First of all, General Nie Dan was victorious in the first battle. With less than 10,000 troops in Yupei County, the Xianbei Army's 20,000 troops and horses were destroyed. At the time of entry, the troops each had 20,000 cavalry, but now General Nie’s battle at Peixian has completely wiped out the Xianbei people.”
"The morale is high today, and the recovery of the homeland is just around the corner." Lin Yuezhi said solemnly: "Leading by General Nie, the Jiangnan area will recruit troops and transport food and grass. As long as the whole country is united, why not worry about things? The situation, over time, will definitely lose the aggressiveness!"
Tang Bo got up and said slowly: "Have you ever asked if the people of Jiangnan are willing to do their best to assemble a large army and go to the north for a battle?!"
"Can't fight!" One person shouted, and the others responded.
"In the past few years, we have collected grain and tax, collected wages and trained troops." Another humane said: "A year ago, 100,000 Jiangnan recruits were sent north and handed over to Tang Hui and others. How many people died in battle? How many people returned to Jiangnan alive? What's the result? Jiangdong's children didn't come back.
You Miao only felt that the public anger in the south of the Yangtze River seemed to have reached its peak. Someone below spoke up. Immediately, many people were angry and opposed to the immediate northern expedition. As for Lin Yuezhi, Tang Bo and the others, they were silent on the stage, and when the voices subsided, one of them coughed a few times and made a gesture.
"Whoever has a high opinion, might as well come to the stage and talk about it." That said in the matter.
Immediately, there was no sound from the audience, and Chang Yuan sneered: "It's all shrewd people."
You Miao smiled, indicating that Chang Yuan should not say more, Tianqi would not kill literati after the founding of the country, but if he said that he would not kill, no one knew the temperament of Xinjun, and even if he did not kill, he would be charged with a crime, just like in the past. Nian Sunyu was exiled and sent away like that, so as not to be blamed in front of the emperor, it was also helpless. Except for Lin Yuezhi, everyone didn't know the attitude of Zhengshitang, so they didn't dare to rashly act as a leader.
After making everyone quiet, he stood up and said, "My surname is Lin, Lin Mai, and Brother Lin are from the same family."
Lin surnamed is also a big family in Jiangnan. Lin Yue looked up and down the man and nodded. You Miao secretly said that the two might be the same family. How many people can you feed with grain and rice in the south of the Yangtze River?"
Lin Yueyi laughed and said, "It must be enough to raise Tianqi for three years and five years. If the Hu people fight Jiangnan one day, will Xiongtai still stand here and talk about it?"
The literati were clamoring again, and another person came to the stage and said, "No, no, two brothers Lin... But listen... I... Brothers said, don't go to war."
The man walked up and bowed his hands to everyone. At that time, the weather was very hot, with three poles in the sun, and everyone was sweating like rain. You Miao took a look, and recognized that it was the second place in the list that Enkeqin named when Zhao Ming was in power. Qing, couldn't help but laugh.
Chen Qing: "Yesterday when His Majesty ascended the throne, the night before... I was watching the stars at night, and I got another hexagram, it was... Shang Liu!"
Everyone was speechless, Lin Yuezhi's mouth twitched, and everyone in the Political Affairs Hall looked at Chen Qing together.
Tang Bo said: "Deputy supervisor, in my opinion, it's not as good as..."
Chen Qing waved his hand again and motioned to everyone: "Let... let this official speak, finish speaking..."
You Miao put her hand on her forehead and couldn't bear to see him. A familiar voice from the side laughed and said, "This fellow ran very fast at the beginning, and he became the deputy supervisor of the Sitian Superintendent."
You Miao looked back and saw that it was Lin Luoyang, the minister of officials, and said in surprise, "You're here too? Not working today?"
Lin Luoyang put one hand on You Miao's shoulder and explained, "The Ministry of Officials is nearby, come and take a look, now, look over there."
You Miao followed and looked around, and saw three more people standing on the other side of the arena, one was Minister of War, Pingxi, the other was Qin Shaonan, servant of the Ministry of Housing, and one who had never met before.
The Ministry of Household holds the power of food and money, and the Jiangnan forces are never willing to let go. In the past, the Yangzhou prefect recommended a local official surnamed Xie to serve as the minister. Presumably Zhao Chao also gave in, but the following was the minister. The waiter arranged for those who fled to the south.
The Ministry of War is in charge of the military, and must be led by people from the north. Ping Xi was in charge of the Ministry of War in the past, and the post of Shangshu was none other than him. Lin Luoyang was in charge of the personnel department. Nod in greeting.
Lin Luoyang said to You Miao: "His name is Xie Quan, he is the nephew of the Minister of the Ministry of Housing, and he is similar to you. He also grew up in Beijing and does not have a good relationship with the clan. He didn't come when you entered Beijing. When he returned to Jiangnan, he happened to be in Beijing. When you went to take the exam, he went back to his hometown for his father's funeral, and he just missed it. He is the best friend of us."
You Miao understood, what Lin Luoyang meant was one sentence, three words: one's own person.
"Li Yan didn't come?" You Miao asked.
Ping Xi brought the two over, and Lin Luoyang said, "He doesn't show up."
Pingxi was sweating profusely and asked, "Where's Your Majesty?"
You Miao shook her head slightly. I don't know when Zhao Chao came over, but Qin young man pouted in the political affairs hall and said, "Have you not seen that many guards are arranged inside?"
You Miao immediately understood, so Zhao Chao was probably listening in the wall, maybe Sun Yu was drinking tea... At this time, everyone laughed, thinking that Chen Qing on the stage didn't know what to say.
Chen Qing stammered: "What are you laughing at? This is the teaching passed down by the ancestors... You don't understand the lesson. Every place changes, and God must feel it. In the sixth, the dragon fights in the wild, and its blood is dark yellow. At this time, there was a disaster of swords and soldiers, which was very ominous, and the new emperor ascended the throne..."
"How long are you going to let this fellow talk?" Ping Xi said helplessly.
