After saying this, he respectfully handed over the memorial with both hands.
The navy was also part of the Wei army.
Generally speaking, ordinary memorials must naturally go through the Ministry of War.
In addition, he is currently the Minister of War and also the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, so this memorial should indeed be presented by him.
Wei Yunyi frowned after hearing these words. He had heard about the pirate incident before, but he didn't care much about it.
After all, those pirates threaten the coastal areas every once in a while. But now, looking at the memorial from my brother-in-law, the situation is worse than I imagined.
Even the evil desires of the royal family of the previous dynasty were involved, and it was obvious that a big move was brewing.
These people have always been a thorn in the side of the Wei Dynasty.
Although not very strong.
But after all, they are left over from the previous dynasty, so they must be eliminated no matter what.
Wei Yunyi felt that the remnants of the royal family of the previous dynasty had become increasingly powerful after more than a hundred years of development overseas, conquered many pirates, and then launched repeated attacks on the inland of Wei over a long period of time.
Although none of them were successful, they still caused great disasters.
You must know that they are pirates who do all kinds of evil.
Countless people along the coast were massacred.
However, the remnants of the previous royal family hid in the rear and did not really come out.
As for the reason, it was very simple. Because those people always hoped that one day they could counterattack the Central Plains.
If we are associated with the reputation of massacring civilians, it will have a great impact on our future plans.
Of course, no matter what, Wei Yunyi has to do now.
That’s how to solve this kind of thing.
In fact, if he wanted to be a tyrant, he could just ignore it. But the problem was that those pirates were extremely cruel, and he couldn't drag the people into it just to curb the fortune of the Wei Dynasty.
Therefore, after a rough thought, Wei Yunyi spoke up and said, "Then let Zhao Jiguang pay close attention to the pirates' movements. At the critical moment, he can decide whether to send troops!"
In fact, he knew very well why his brother-in-law submitted this memorial.
What we want is the power to start a war at any time.
Because in the military system of the Wei Dynasty.
Except the southern and northern borders.
The market needs to defend against foreign invaders, and a major war can be launched at any time.
Other garrisons, including the navy, must obtain permission from the court before they can take the initiative to use troops in combat.
This can prevent some rewards from launching wars at any time and place, and it can also be regarded as curbing the power of military generals.
Pirates are active now, and there are signs that they will attack coastal areas.
He made this decision to protect the people.
certainly.
Wei Yunyi knew it very well.
My brother-in-law has just taken office as the commander-in-chief of Haizhou.
He spent almost the first half of his life on the plains, fighting against the grassland armies.
Even if you have some experience, it would be difficult to gain the upper hand at sea.
That is why Wei Yunyi agreed to his fight against the pirates.
I wonder, even if a fight breaks out, how serious can it be?
Is it possible to directly destroy the pirates?
And his expectations for his brother-in-law.
It can only prevent pirates from coming ashore and prevent the people from suffering unnecessary disasters.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The Minister of War Lin Yuansong, who was standing next to him, had no objection to this.
Pirates have always been a major concern for coastal areas, and they would come ashore to plunder every once in a while. Unfortunately, the navy was not strong enough to completely suppress the pirates.
He thought that Zhao Jiguang was now in charge of the navy, and hoped that he could change this situation.
After the matter of the Ministry of War was finished, Wei Yunyi was just about to speak.
But unexpectedly at this time.
Wang Lun, the Minister of Rites, suddenly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have a memorial here too, submitted by Chen Xuance."
Chen Xuance?
When these words were spoken, everyone present was stunned.
It was not until this moment that they remembered that this was the first new top scholar of the Tianqi Dynasty.
His Majesty had previously sent me to Tiandu Kingdom to ease the relationship between the two countries.
Counting the days now, we should be reaching our destination soon.
really.
Wang Lun continued, "Chen Xuance said he has already entered the territory of Tiandu. He said that this time, he will definitely live up to Your Majesty's expectations and restore the friendship between the two countries. However, he also said that this may take some time."
Although Tiandu Kingdom is adjacent to Wei, the distance from the capital is still very far.
And we have to cross several snow-capped mountains, so the conditions can be said to be extremely difficult.
After hearing Wang Lun's words, everyone couldn't help but sigh.
He was originally the new top scholar.
Moreover, he is the first in this dynasty, so his future can almost be said to be limitless.
But who would have thought that he would speak up at the court meeting that day and eventually be appointed as an envoy.
This experience makes people feel helpless.
But look at the tone of the other party's letter.
Several university scholars present, except Song Gongwen and Zhang Zhengming, could not help but shake their heads.
The relationship between the two countries has been deteriorating for decades. Can it be improved by just sending an envoy?
Especially King Ali, who was tyrannical by nature and had great ambitions towards Wei. It seemed impossible to ask him to withdraw his troops and continue to build friendly relations between the two countries.
This is too arrogant.
As for Wei Yunyi, after hearing this.
I think so too.
Of course, what he hoped was that Chen Xuance could make the relationship between Dawei and Tiandu Kingdom even worse.
