Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 155
Hearing the voice behind him, all the officials turned their heads, seeing that it was Marquis An Guo, they all sighed.

Marquis of An Guo had a feud with Duke Cheng, and everyone standing in the court hall was a human being, how could he not know.

Three or five imperial censors were planning to come out to fight (fall) righteousness (well) hold (down) words (stone), but they all shrank back after looking around.

Can't be bothered, can't be bothered!

"An Guohou, what do you want to say?" Chongzhen glared at Liu Hongjian, implying that you should be honest and don't cause trouble for me.

"Your Majesty, I think Duke Cheng is only half right!"

Staring at me, I have to say it too, otherwise I will make Lao Huang dirty, and I may be sent to the north to drink cold wind, how can this work?
Loyal words are harsh to the ear, how can a big (stirring) loyal (shi) minister (stick) like Lao Tzu be taken in by lust and power, and be obedient?
"Oh? Are you saying that Cheng Guogong is self-absorbed and self-disciplined, and he is strict with himself?" Hearing what Liu Hongjian said, Chongzhen became interested.

"No, no, the emperor misunderstood this humble minister.

What I mean by this minister is that it is true that Duke Cheng's mind is dull, not only dull, but also thick-skinned, thicker than the city walls of our capital! "

A joke, he self-denials?Be strict with yourself?It's like someone who never spits ivory out of their mouth, it's pure bullshit.

"An Guohou, don't you want to spit blood!" Hearing Liu Hongjian's words, Zhu Chunchen, who had been crying on the ground just now, stood up suddenly.

"Your Majesty! The old minister is fifty-two years old. He has spent half his life working for the court without merit or hard work. Now he is humiliated by a young boy like this. I ask the emperor to make the decision for the old minister!"

Zhu Chunchen was still filled with righteous indignation just now, and when he turned to face Chongzhen, he seemed to have been wronged by the sky, and the speed of changing his face was fast enough to make the little fresh meat of later generations feel ashamed.

He was not stupid, he knew how important Liu Hongjian was to the emperor, so he didn't dare to be presumptuous, so he had to put on a pitiful face and kick the ball to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, although An Guohou has made great contributions to my Ming Dynasty, but why did the Duke of the country not sweat for my Ming Dynasty? Now in this court, An Guohou is actually uttering vulgar words and swearing at each other. It is really unfair. I am Da Ming Wei Yi.

As the minister of the Ministry of Rites, I complained for the Duke of the country, and the emperor should punish the crime of lying in the country! " Ma Shiying played out of class.

"Master Ma's words are very true. The ministers and others seconded the proposal, and they should punish the crimes of the Marquis of the State!"

As if they had received a signal, three or five censors finally couldn't hold back the prehistoric fire in their hearts, and collectively came out to impeach Liu Hongjian.

"An Guohou, you went to Menglang! Can you be convicted?" In the court hall, after you sang, I appeared on the stage, and Chongzhen sat on the dragon chair with an unhappy face.

"Back to the emperor, I just said a few words of truth, what is the crime?

I have a document in my hand, and I implore the emperor to read it out in the hall. If the emperor still thinks that I am talking nonsense after reading it, I will be guilty of it! "

Liu Hongjian took out a neatly folded rice paper from his pipa sleeve.

"Your Majesty..." Zhu Chunchen's years of intuition told him that there was murderous intent!This kid must be stopped.

"Read!" Chongzhen stopped Zhu Chunchen from speaking with a wave of his hand.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"According to the investigation, in the third year of Chongzhen, Zhu Chunchen, the Duke of Cheng, invaded and occupied 28 hectares of farmland in Shigezhuang, Changping County.

In June of the fourth year of Chongzhen, Zhu Chunchen, the Duke of Cheng, embezzled 18 shi of relief food in the name of disaster relief, causing tens of thousands of people in Henan to starve to death due to lack of relief.

In March of the sixth year of Chongzhen, Zhu Chunchen accepted a bribe of 2 taels of silver from Feng Tianhua, the head of the Nanjing Household Department, and won him the post of deputy envoy of the Salt Envoy Department.

In the seventh year of Chongzhen, Zhu Chunchen took advantage of the position of the left governor of the Central Military Governor's Mansion to occupy 700 vacancies in the Beijing camp, and this continued until the 14th year of Chongzhen.

In the ninth year of Chongzhen, Zhu Chunchen invaded and occupied 49 hectares of cultivated land in Baiyangzhuang, Tongxian County. Xu Erhe, a villager in Baiyangzhuang, was beaten to death by a slave in Cheng Guogong's mansion because he lost his land and went to Shuntian Mansion to report to the officials.

The 11th year of Chongzhen...

12...

......"

Liu Hongjian stood in the Hall of the Emperor, with a high-pitched voice and a calm tone, as if he was reading a beautiful essay.

Cheng Guogong Zhu Chunchen knelt in front of the palace, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead from time to time, and the gentle words behind him were heard in his ears, like a snake and a scorpion.

"Enough!" Chongzhen finally couldn't bear it.

"Zhu Chunchen! Did Marquis An Guo slander you?"

Chongzhen's hands trembled a little. Among all the nobles, the one he relied on the most was Zhu Chunchen, the Duke of Cheng.

The crime Liu Hongjian read just now was like a knife piercing into Chongzhen's body.

What kind of injury is the most painful, the most chilling?

It's not directly stabbing with a knife, but the person you trust, the person you rely on, the knife that turns back to you is the most painful and chilling!

"The emperor...the emperor Rongchen...argued."

"Your Majesty, this list of crimes has been repeatedly verified by Jin Yiwei, and each crime has human and physical evidence! There will be no mistake."

Liu Hongjian submitted the letter to the eunuch Wang Erxi, and Wang Erxi passed it on to Chongzhen. Chongzhen quickly scanned it, and saw that it was the same as what Liu Hongjian read, and his expression became stern in an instant.

"Since I inherited the Great Tradition, I think I have treated you well. If I remember correctly, in the past ten years or so, I have given you 120 hectares of Zilitian in the lineage of Duke Cheng.

And you?How did you repay me?Occupying fertile land, disregarding human life, corrupting ink, what else are you afraid to do?you say! "

Chongzhen's eye circles began to turn red again.

Those who are familiar with Chongzhen's temperament will know that the emperor's eye circles are red, either because he is moved or angry!
In the current situation, it is obviously not the former.

In Chongzhen's mind, encroaching on some acres is not a big offence, what disappointed him the most was the shortfall.

In the battle of defending the city at the beginning of the year, which was about the survival of Ming Dynasty, if there were [-] more soldiers from the Beijing camp, the defense would not have been so hard.

"Your majesty, I... I am guilty! I am confused for a while... I hope the emperor"

Bean-like cold sweat kept breaking out on his forehead, Zhu Chunchen was not stupid, and there were all the witnesses and material evidence, which showed that An Guohou came prepared, and he dared not rely on the old to sell the old, so he could only pray to Chongzhen to forgive him for the sake of his ancestors.

"I was confused for a while, huh, you have been confused for more than ten years, your shame is really thicker than the city wall, Your Majesty, are you right?" Liu Hongjian laughed back angrily, and directly interrupted the incoherent Zhu Chunchen. .

"Your Majesty, I dare to plead for the [-] soldiers who died unjustly in Huaiyin Mansion..." Huang Degong lifted up his official uniform and knelt down to plead for the unjustly killed brothers.

"My minister agrees."

"My minister agrees."

The Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Officials all echoed it. It has always been their bounden duty to suppress generals, not to mention that Zhu Chunchen's crimes are simply too numerous to write down and full of crimes.

"Decree, Zhu Chunchen, the Duke of Cheng, invaded fertile land, neglected human life, embezzled and accepted bribes, and withheld military pay. These crimes are unforgivable.

I am so disappointed that I have been punished for several crimes, and Zhu Chunchen was removed from the post of Zuo Dudu in the Governor's Mansion of the Central Army, and Cheng Guogong's lineage came here to expel the title.

Confiscating the income from corruption over the years and returning the land to the people, Zhu Chunchen was demoted to the common people.

Thinking of the kindness of my ancestors to Daming, and leaving his mansion and original fields, this is my admiration! "

With his back to the courtiers, Chongzhen issued an imperial edict. There were already eunuchs around him who wrote vigorously, drafting Chongzhen's will without changing a single word.

"Thank you, sir." Zhu Chunchen's face was ashen, and his clothes were soaked in cold sweat in the cold weather.

"Let's do it for ourselves! Retire!" Chongzhen flicked his sleeves and left the Huangji Hall without looking back.

These crimes are enough for ordinary people to die seventy or eighty times. Alas, the emperor's heart softened. Liu Hongjian shook his head and prepared to go back home.

"An Guohou waits for a step!" Huang Degong got up and caught up a few steps.
