Zongwu: On the first day of my accession to the throne, I signed in to the Heaven-shaking Law

At nightfall.

The whole city of Nanjing was brightly lit.

Especially the Nanjing Ministry of Revenue was in a panic.

There were voices of discussion everywhere.

"What? Ning Wang's rebellion was quelled?"

"Ten thousand Snow Dragon Cavalry rushed to Nanchang in three days?!"

"Can cavalry attack a city?!"

"Is the Grand Master of Astronomy really so exaggerated?!"

"This..."

Facing the news from Jiangxi.

No official in the entire Nanjing Ministry of Revenue dared to believe it.

In their previous cognition.

Whether it was Ning Wang's rebellion or Zhu Houzhao's suppression of the rebellion.

At least it would take several months, or even one or two years.

This is why these officials were not in a hurry before.

Because of such a long time, they can deal with everything calmly.

They can even take advantage of the chaos to gain some benefits.

But now? !

Ning Wang's rebellion was quelled in less than three days? !

Even if we don't count the time spent on the raid along the way.

It only took Xu Yanbing and Wang Yangming a few hours to quell the rebellion? !

Is this a joke? !

That's the Ning Wang!

The Ning Wang who has dominated Jiangxi for decades! ! !

.......

Not only these officials couldn't believe it.

Even Zhang Cong couldn't believe it. He sat sluggishly on the armchair.

His mind was blank: "Really just half a day?!"

"Grandmaster of Astronomy? How ridiculous!"

"How exaggerated!"

In fact, as early as this morning.

Zhang Cong already knew that the Ning Wang was going to launch the Jingnan Uprising in Nanchang.

He even sent people to find Wang Yangming's whereabouts, hoping to contact Wang Yangming as soon as possible.

Then discuss the Ning Wang's Jingnan!

After all, Jingnan is different from rebellion, not to mention that there are Mongolians beside the Ning Wang.

This is treason!

They also want to overthrow the Ming Dynasty!

These officials in Nanjing may not care who is the emperor, but they cannot tolerate the entire Ming Dynasty no longer existing.

They cannot tolerate the Mongol Yuan occupying the territory of the Ming Dynasty. This is not because they are loyal to the Ming Dynasty.

It is related to their vital interests.

If the Mongols occupied the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

Or the glorious Ming Dynasty no longer exists.

What are they? What are their second-rank and third-rank official positions.

What will happen to the thousands of acres of fertile land in Jiangnan? !

Under the imminent overthrow of the Ming Dynasty, these parasites can only tremble and panic.

....

But no one could have thought of it.

The document of Ning Wang's uprising and pacification has not yet arrived.

The news of Xu Yanbing and Wang Yangming's suppression of the rebellion came.

The moment this news came.

Zhang Cong was completely dumbfounded.

He also knew that he had done something wrong.

Xu Yan's soldiers were able to act so quickly and to resolve the Ning Wang Rebellion so quickly.

This is certainly a great thing for the Ming Dynasty.

But what does it mean to these Nanjing officials?

They knew about the Ning Wang Rebellion but did not report it!

They were of no use to Your Majesty in suppressing the rebellion.

So what if they were there or not?

In addition, the means displayed by Zhu Houzhao in suppressing the rebellion were even more shocking.

Xu Yan's soldiers were able to rush from the Forbidden City to Nanchang City in a few days and suppress the Ning Wang and his 100,000 troops.

Then who in the territory of the Ming Dynasty has the strength to threaten Your Majesty?

Even all the vassal kings and all forces will be under the deterrence of Your Majesty.

....

In the Ministry of Rites.

Yan Song was also horrified when he heard the news.

He said in a heavy tone: "Zhang Cong and Xia Yan are completely finished!"

No matter what Zhang Cong and Xia Yan thought before.

But the facts are here.

They did not write to His Majesty to show their loyalty.

They also did not actively prepare to suppress the rebellion after receiving the notification from the Six Gates.

There was no movement to mobilize troops to deal with the rebellion of Prince Ning.

They even just perfunctorily took out 100,000 silver taels to give to Wang Yangming.

Of course, Nanjing used to treat the Forbidden City and the previous emperor in this way.

But the situation is different now.

After Zhu Houzhao showed such thundering means to suppress the rebellion of Prince Ning.

Who in the six departments of Nanjing dared to despise this young king.

Who dared to disobey the order of His Majesty!

"Sir Shangshu, what should we do?"

The assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites was also a little panicked.

Although they had planned to stand on His Majesty's side before.

But they haven't stood up yet?

Even the mobilized resources were not used at all.

Yan Song frowned and asked, "Has the memorial been delivered?"

Yan Song had already sent the memorial to the Forbidden City the day before.

But Nanjing is still far from the Forbidden City.Some distance.

It is impossible to use the black eagle that can travel thousands of miles a day at will.

"According to the time calculation, I am afraid it has not arrived yet." Someone whispered: "But there is a date on the memorial, and it will arrive tomorrow with the news of the successful suppression of the rebellion in Jiangxi, right?"

"Your Majesty should also know our intentions."

After hearing the news, Yan Song stood up and walked back and forth in the hall in deep thought.

After a long time.

He slowly said: "Not enough!"

Not sincere enough!

Although Yan Song had submitted a memorial to His Majesty, and even expressed his desire to surrender to Zhu Houzhao.

But this is still not enough!

Just because he was a member of the six ministries in Nanjing, he did not do anything really substantial.

A memorial does not mean anything.

"Didn't Yu Huatian from the West Factory arrive yesterday?" Yan Song said coldly: "Send someone to contact him quickly and give him all the evidence we have collected from various officials over the years."

"Tell Yu Huatian if there is a need."

"I, Yan Song, can also go and arrest people myself!"

This is a true pledge of allegiance!

It is also the decisiveness of a treacherous minister like Yan Song.

After facing such a shocking change.

Yan Song quickly came up with a solution, and even offered his pledge of allegiance at all costs.

It doesn't matter even if he offends the entire Jiangnan bureaucracy for this.

As long as Your Majesty can trust him.

With Yan Song's accumulation over the years and his intelligence.

He will surely be able to serve as an official in the court in the future.

He can even rise to the top and become a cabinet minister in one step.

"This?!"

When the ministers under Yan Song heard this, they were suddenly horrified: "Is this too much?"

They all wanted to follow Yan Song to surrender to Your Majesty before.

But it is not like now, almost tearing up with the entire Jiangnan and Nanjing bureaucracy!

They have lived in Nanjing for a long time.

They know how exaggerated the power of these people is.

"I would rather die than die!"

"If you want to gain the trust of your majesty, you must do this."

Yan Song said with a cold face: "If you dare not, pass this news to those people!"

He didn't believe that these people would dare to be grass in the corner.

With the power of your majesty now.

As long as Yan Song does not die, he will be prosperous in the future after offering such a pledge of surrender.

Whoever betrays today.

Will face Yan Song's reckoning in the future.

These assistant ministers are obviously not fools: "We follow the Shangshu!"
