The tenth collect the four hundred and ninety-ninth chapter
Chapter 499
After listening to Zhang Zhe's impassioned speech, Tang Yin was a little dumbfounded. He put the teacup he had just picked up back down and secretly sighed in his heart. He still underestimated the superstitious psychology of people in this era. In the hearts of most people, they all believe in
National line, and Yancheng is undoubtedly the national line of Feng State, so moving the capital is like touching the lifeblood of some people, and these people are the most loyal and loyal ministers of Feng State.
Tang Yin thought about it for a while, then he took a long breath and said to Zhang Zhe with a smile: "I understand what Mr. Zhang means, and I will consider it carefully. Mr. Zhang, please go back first!"
Zhang Zhe didn't want to leave now, so he said seriously: "Your Majesty, the person who tempted your Majesty to move the capital is actually a vicious thief who brings disaster to the country and the people. Your Majesty, you must not underestimate him, let alone tolerate adultery. He must be severely punished and dealt with strictly according to law.
To serve as a warning to others..."
The more he spoke, the uglier Tang Yin's face became. Ah San and Ah Si beside him couldn't stand it anymore. How could Zhang Zhe be so straight? He couldn't even observe his expressions? Didn't you see that the king's face had turned blue? I'm afraid.
If Zhang Zhe continued to be verbose, Tang Yin could strangle him to death. Ah San walked forward in good faith and said with a smile: "Master Zhang, the king is a little tired. The king will definitely handle this matter properly, Master Zhang."
Don’t worry, go back quickly!”
Zhang Zhe still wanted to speak, but Ah San had already pulled him out with persuasion. As soon as Zhang Zhe was pulled away by Ah San, Tang Yin, who was full of anger, slammed down the table and said angrily: "Ignorance!
Extremely ignorant! What’s the lifeline of Gale? The lifeline of Feng Country will only be in the hands of Feng people, not tied to a bullshit capital city! I’m so angry..."
Tang Yin picked up the teacup, raised his head, and drank all the tea in the teacup. After breathing for a while, he turned back to Ah Si and said, "Ah Si, come to Zong Yuan."
In his opinion, Zhang Zhe did not understand his own thoughts, but Zong Yuan was the best at understanding people's hearts, and he would definitely support his decision. As a result, Tang Yin was wrong again. Zong Yuan, like Zhang Zhe, also opposed moving the capital.
Zongyuan was honest in front of Tang Yin and said truthfully: "Weichen bought hundreds of acres of land inside and outside Yancheng. At five hundred taels of silver per mu, that is more than 100,000 taels of property, and it is also Weichen's entire property. Once
If the capital is moved, the land purchased by the ministers will become worthless and all their money will be lost."
His words also represent the psychology of a considerable number of people. Among the many ministers of the Feng Kingdom, which one has not placed all their belongings in Yancheng? If the capital is moved, what will happen to these assets? Not only will they depreciate, but they will also bring losses.
Don't go.
Later, Tang Yin successively called for the governor of Su Neishi, Zhang Xin, Sikong Jianglu, Sikou Wangzuo, Zhang Xiu from Lingwu Academy, Lei Zhen from Duwei Camp, Gu Chong from Lieutenant Mansion, Gu Chen's uncle and nephew, and other civil servants and generals.
The answers were roughly the same. Everyone believed that relocation was inappropriate. To put it lightly, it would cause unrest in people's hearts and make Feng people lose their cohesion. To put it more seriously, it would damage the national destiny of Feng country and put Feng country into an irreversible danger.
If only one or two people objected, Tang Yin could still forcefully implement the plan to move the capital, but all the ministers opposed it, and as a monarch, he felt powerless.
After the court dismissed in the morning, Tang Yin began to receive the summoned ministers one by one. He was busy until late at night. Not only did he achieve nothing, but he was also very angry. He was not in the mood to have dinner, so he sat in the small garden near the room.
Pacing back and forth.
At this time, Ah San came to report and asked Cai Gui to see him. Cai Gui was not from Feng, but from Ning. It didn't mean much whether he was in favor or against the move of the capital, so Tang Yin didn't summon him. Now Tang Yin was in a bad mood.
Jia, when he heard that Cai Gui was coming, he didn't think about it at first, but then he thought about it. Cai Gui had always been resourceful and might be able to help him with some ideas on moving the capital. Thinking of this, he raised his head to Asan and said, "Let him come over."
!" As he spoke, he walked to the pavilion in the center of the courtyard and sat down.
Not long after, Cai Gui was led by Asan and walked over quickly. When he came to Tang Yin, he bowed and saluted and said, "I am here to see you, your Majesty!"
"Getting up Yin waved his hand and motioned to the seat opposite him.
Cai Gui bowed again to thank him, and then sat down on the stone bench opposite Tang Yin. He said he was sitting, but in reality he was just sticking his buttocks to the side. Sitting down was not as comfortable as standing up!
He first asked: "I heard that someone was admonishing the king about moving the capital."
Tang Yin was amused and asked with a smile: "What? Mr. Cai also came to persuade me not to move the capital, and to kill those who tried to dissuade me?"
As soon as he heard the meaning between the lines of Tang Yin's words, Cai Gui had already guessed his intention, which was consistent with his judgment. He hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, no, no! Weichen never meant this."
Tang Yin talked to so many ministers about moving the capital, and the news had already spread among the ministers. It was not surprising that Cai Gui heard about it.
He specifically went to inquire about the opinions of the ministers who were summoned by Tang Yin, and received unanimous responses. The ministers were all opposed, and they also expressed their thoughts in front of the king. Through this, Cai Gui had basically concluded that
The king actually supports moving the capital.
If the king is also opposed to moving the capital, there is no need to go to all the trouble to summon so many ministers. You only need to summon one or two important ministers. It is precisely because the king actually supports the move of the capital and has not received satisfactory answers from the ministers that he has to keep summoning them.
Go on, hoping to hear like-minded voices.
If Zongyuan is good at understanding people's hearts, then Cai Gui is undoubtedly better. He was keenly aware that the opportunity for his performance had come, so he went to the palace at night and asked to see Tang Yin.
"On the contrary, Wei Chen believes that moving the capital is the way to strengthen the country in line with development." Cai Gui said seriously.
"Oh?" Tang Yin's eyes lit up. It was really rare. After listening to the objections all day, he finally heard the voice of approval. It was a pity that Cai Gui was from Ning, and in the court of Feng Kingdom, Feng talents were
is the subject.
Tang Yin remained calm and asked Ah Si to prepare two cups of tea as if nothing had happened, and then asked Jiutian Literature Network to see why you think moving the capital is feasible."
"Yancheng is located in the northeast. In the past, there was nothing wrong with it. But now our country's territory has nearly tripled, with large areas in the west and south. Now, Yancheng's location seems too remote and too remote.
It is inconvenient. Moving the capital to the southwest will be more conducive to the court's control of Ningdi and Modi nearby, and it will also be more conducive to the stability of our country's situation. As long as there is no internal chaos in our country, no matter how powerful a foreign enemy appears, it will not be able to defeat our country.
"Cai Gui analyzed with a serious face.
Tang Yin nodded while listening. Cai Gui's words hit the point and hit his mind. After Cai Gui finished speaking, Tang Yin couldn't help but sigh softly and said: "What Mr. Cai said is reasonable, but...
Many ministers don’t think so!”
Cai Gui burst into laughter and asked, "Your Majesty, those who oppose moving the capital should all be Feng people?"
"That's right."
"Actually, this is easy to understand. Feng people have too deep feelings for Yancheng. Wei Chen can guarantee that in the hearts of most Feng people, the national line of our country is in Yancheng. Once we choose to move the capital, we will damage the national line and ourselves.
Not to mention the fate of the country, many ministers have their property in Yancheng. Once the capital is moved, it will undoubtedly be like losing all their wealth, so whether it is public or private, it is inevitable that the ministers will oppose it." Cai Gui analyzed calmly.
"Yes, in the eyes of many ministers, Yancheng is like a piece of heart that is difficult to let go..." Tang Yin sighed sincerely, and then he raised his eyebrows again and looked at Cai Gui. Tang Yin was not a fool. Cai Guineng came late at night.
It is absolutely impossible for him to say such words in front of himself that they are meaningless.
He looked at Cai Gui for a while and asked with a smile: "Master Cai has already made plans to move the capital?"
Cai Gui smiled calmly and asked: "What does the king think is the biggest obstacle to moving the capital?"
Tang Yin rolled his eyes, thought about it seriously, and said, "People believe that Yancheng is the national bloodline of my Dafeng."
Cai Guida nodded and said: "Your Majesty is wise. Our country's national blood and national destiny are all tied to Yancheng. This is the most high-sounding reason to oppose moving the capital. As for the family property, it is a private matter after all and cannot be used as an objection.
An excuse to move the capital." After a pause, he whispered again: "If continuing to set the capital in Yancheng is like damaging the country's connections and its destiny, then moving the capital will become inevitable."
Oh? Tang Yin didn't fully understand the meaning of Cai Gui's words. He said, "Let's talk about it in detail..."
Cai Gui looked left and right, then stood up, walked to Tang Yin's side, bent down, and whispered in his ear. Tang Yin's brows were knitted into a knot at first, but gradually, his frown became
Stretched out, when Cai Gui finished speaking in his ear, Tang Yin's face showed a smile, he put his hands on his hands and laughed: "Okay! It's really a good idea! I just... want to get what Master Cai said.
, it’s not easy!”
"Tia can make it." Cai Gui reminded in a low voice.
"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded and said, "That's right! It seems that I have to send a secret envoy to Tia." As soon as he finished speaking, Cai Gui volunteered and said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to send you a secret envoy.
Past!"
"this……"
"Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance and must be kept secret. It is best for only the king and the minister to know about this matter. It is most appropriate for the minister to go there," Cai Gui said.
"Okay! Mr. Cai, I'll give you a hard trip this time." "It's hard work to do things for your Majesty!" Tang Yin was happy, patted Cai Gui on the shoulder, and said: "If this thing comes true, I will
I will make you a bachelor."
"Thank you so much, Your Majesty, for your kindness!" Cai Gui was shocked when he heard this. Without thinking, he knelt down and kowtowed to Tang Yin. Before the matter was revealed, Cai Gui began to thank Tang Yin. It seemed that
, he is already confident.
