Not only Zhao Nanxing, but also Zuo Guangdou and the others looked terrible.
Even Zhu Youxiao from Xi Sect did not look good.
He had agreed to Zhao Nanxing's suggestion.
Li Xian's words were equivalent to putting him in.
Wang An finally witnessed Li Xian's capabilities today.
It was just his first day in office, and he had already caused such a huge incident.
It could be said that all the civil and military officials in the court were shocked.
After saying all this, Li Xian's goal had already been achieved.
However, he wanted to stab these people at the most critical point.
"Your Majesty!"
Li Xian turned around and bowed to Zhu Youxiao."
"Your Majesty, the person who came to propose marriage is Nurhachi's second son, and Princess An Le is Your Majesty's younger sister. I don't know if all the officials in the court know the meaning of seniority.”
"If Princess An Le really married the Second Prince of the Jin Kingdom, what would His Majesty's status be in front of Nurhachi?
Therefore, I implore Your Majesty to punish these incompetent officials for deceiving the emperor!”
Li Xian cupped his hands and said.
Everyone in the Great Harmony Hall was stunned.
Li Xian's words
They had never considered Li Xian's words before.
He was right.
If the emperor's sister married the son of the Jin Kingdom's prince, wouldn't the Jin Kingdom's emperor, Nurhaha, become the elder of the Ming Dynasty's emperor?
"Zhao Nanxing, my Ming Dynasty has been wise for three hundred years, but it was almost destroyed by you people.”
Ye Xianggao pointed at Zhao Nanxing and the others who were standing in front of His Highness.
Some of the generals also flushed.
From the very beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Taizu had set the ancestral precepts.
No marriage, no tribute, no ceding territory.
Chengzu even said that the emperor guarded the country gate.
Today, they had to marry a small border country to resolve the diplomatic conflict between the two countries.
This was a great humiliation for a soldier.
"Your Majesty, we are willing to defend our territory with our lives and respect the teachings of our ancestors. We will not marry, cede territory, or pay tribute. We will never let the Jin Kingdom take a step into the territory of our Ming Dynasty!”
With Xiong Yanbi as the leader, all the generals knelt down and shouted at the same time!
Zhao Nanxing and the others looked at the scene in front of them.
They were the ones who jointly impeached the newly appointed supervisor of the East Branch.
How did the wires turn into sycophants who brought disaster to the country and the people?
"Your Majesty, this old servant also thinks that Li Xian is right. If we really want to marry through marriage, then our Great Ming Dynasty will indeed lose face!”
Xi Zong and Zhu Youxiao were already at a loss.
If it was about woodwork, perhaps he would have some insight.
However, the civil and military officials had already left him at a loss.
However, he was certain of one thing.
Li Xian did not do anything wrong.
If he really married the Jin Kingdom, he would become an emperor who would always be cursed.
And at that time, he didn't respect his master.
"Alright!"
Zhu Youxiao said coldly.
"Zhao Nanxing, Zuo Guangdou, Yang Lian, and Gao Panlong will be punished for one year.”
"The commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, Luo Sigong, has been investigated for dereliction of duty.”
"Li Xian!"
Zhu Youxiao glanced at Li Xian.
"Although Li Xian has made great contributions, his methods are too arbitrary. He will be punished for half a year. As the position of Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards is temporarily vacant, Li Xian will take over temporarily.”
On the surface, Li Xian had been punished along with the Donglin Party, but in reality, Li Xian had truly been promoted this time.
Although Zhu Youxiao did not like matters such as court politics.
He didn't know any policy advice.
But he was not stupid.
He could still tell who was helping him.
"Also, don't mention the marriage alliance anymore and don't spread it to others. Just pretend that it never happened and chase the Jin Kingdom's envoys out of Shangjing!”
Zhu Youxiao waved his sleeves.
"Zhen is tired, all of you can leave!”
After saying that, Zhu Youxiao turned around and left the dragon throne without waiting for the others to say anything.
As for why he was punished for a year.
First of all, the Dong Lin Party was powerful, and they had put in a lot of effort when he had just taken over the throne.
If they were to make a move on the Dong Lin Party at this time of internal and external trouble, it would be very bad.
At that time, the court would be shaken, and it might even backfire.
A spectacular farce ended just like that.
"Humph!"
Zhao Nanxing, Yang Lian, and the others walked out of Taihe Palace with cold faces.
"Lord Li."
An old voice called out from behind Li Xian.
Li Xian turned his head and saw that it was the old man who had spoken up for him earlier.
He remembered that this old man seemed to be the chief assistant of the cabinet. His name was Ye Xianggao.
"Lord Chief." Li Xian bowed slightly.
"You're too kind, Lord Li. Now that you're in charge of the Brocade Guard of the East Chamber, I hope you can contribute more to the country. Although I'm old, I still have some connections. If you encounter any problems, just report your name to me.”
Ye Xianggao smiled at Li Xian.
Behind Ye Xianggao were Xiong Yanbi, Sun Chengzong, and some other generals.
These people had a good impression of Li Xian.
One was that Li Xian had rubbed the Donglin Party's momentum, and the other was that every word Li Xian said was the heartfelt thoughts of these generals.
Today, Li Xian said what they did not dare to say.
"Since Lord Chief has said so, I will definitely disturb you in the future!”
Li Xian also responded with a smile.
