Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 458 The Crazy Chongzhen (Third Update, Add Reward)

"Fengtian carries the emperor, and the decree says:

Anguo Gong Liu Hongjian, since he was ordered to be the supervisor, has driven out the Tartars without any victories, regained the lost land, and promoted the prestige of our country. He has made outstanding achievements.

Reward a thousand pieces of gold, five pieces of python clothes, and a house in the former Cheng Guogong's mansion.

Appreciate this! "

The decree was written very briefly, and it was still an old acquaintance Wang Erxi who came to deliver the decree.

This fellow is already the eunuch in charge of the chief inspector of ceremonies, and it stands to reason that the chief inspector of ceremonies is the pinnacle of the eunuchs, and he is not needed for trivial matters such as passing orders.

But everything depends on the person, not to mention the relationship between Chongzhen and Liu Hongjian, just Liu Hongjian's recommendation and kindness of rescue are enough to make Wang Erxi happy.

"My lord, long time no see, our family misses you very much!" Wang Erxi said after reading out the decree.

Liu Hongjian was promoted to the county king and Wang Erxi was not surprised at all. They were all discerning people. If there was no Liu Hongjian in Ming Dynasty, it would have been defeated by the Chuang army a year ago, let alone the Northern Expedition to destroy the captives.

"Xiao Wang, you are free. I have suffered a lot outside the customs! Let's go and chat in the room." Liu Hongjian took the imperial decree and creaked it to the left, with his right hand on Wang Erxi's shoulder, and went to the room. walk.

It took Liu Hongjian less than a year and a half to rise from a commoner to the county king. If he was an ordinary person, he would have gone mad with joy like Fan Juren, but Liu Hongjian seemed to be fine.

What earl, marquis, duke, county king, just changed to a more noble title, how much is fame and fortune enough?

It is enough to be able to buy what he wants, eat the food he wants, and meet all the needs of his family. He has never thought about fighting for money in his life. He only wants to let his family live a happy life. On An's birthday, I only think that the people around me can also have enough food.

And everything else is incidental.

"My lord, let's talk about the old days later, the Lord Long Live is still waiting for you in the palace! Hurry up and enter the palace with our family." Wang Erxi frowned slightly, as if there was something hard to say.

"What's the matter, what happened in the palace?" Liu Hongjian pretended to be confused, he didn't want to get involved in this matter, but Uncle Chongzhen has done a good job recently, and he is quite like his ancestors.

"Oh, the palace is in chaos now, let's chat while walking!" Wang Erxi waved his hand to signal a group of Huangmen to hand over many things that Chongzhen rewarded to the servants of the Duke's Mansion, and then went out with Liu Hongjian.

However, it is said that since Chongzhen came back from outside the customs, it was like a different person. Only on the night of the sixth day of August, 58 courtiers were arrested, and even Prince Ding's mansion was destroyed.

Prince Ding Zhu Cijiong himself was also imprisoned in Jinyiwei's Imperial Prison, Prince Ding's Mansion is still surrounded by soldiers from the Beijing camp, and all the guards have been escorted to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

In the early morning of the second day, Chongzhen questioned all the officials, but none of the officials dared to speak up. Jin Yiwei tortured him all night, and Chongzhen began to engage in mass murder.

After several interrogations, what Chongzhen didn't expect was that Zheng Sanjun, a veteran of the three dynasties, Minister of the Ministry of officials, and chief assistant of the cabinet, turned out to be the instigator of this incident.

Chongzhen was almost stunned by anger, and the chief assistant of the cabinet was equivalent to the prime minister of the later generations of the State Council. Except for Chongzhen, Zheng Sanjun was mainly involved in political affairs.

The Ministry of Officials is the head of all officials, whether it is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials or the Chief Assistant of the Cabinet, they are all top officials in the imperial court.

This old man can be regarded as having a breeze in his sleeves, otherwise the raid last year would not have been spared.

Chongzhen was so angry that he directly threw Zheng Sanjun, the chief assistant of the cabinet, and the minister of the Ministry of Rites into the imperial prison.

The Censor of the Procuratorate and the Six Divisions were almost wiped out. In three days, half of the people in the court were lost. This situation only happened five times in the 300 years of the Ming Dynasty.

The first four cases were all from Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Whether it was the Kongyin case, Guo Heng case, Hu Weiyong case, or Lan Yu case, the number of people killed in each case was more than [-].

The fifth time came from Zhu Di, the son of Zhu Chongba. This guy is also a ruthless person, because he killed thousands of palace ladies in the harem with one sentence, and they were all Ling Chi!

Whether it is Zhu Yuanzhang or Zhu Di, these two are the emperors who hold the military power immediately, even if they kill the sky, no one can do anything about it.

Otherwise, Chongzhen is now more and more like the ancestors. When he came back from the Northern Expedition, the first thing he did was to attack the courtiers. In three days, more than 280 officials at all levels were arrested, plus the family members and entourage of these officials. There are more than 4000.

But Chongzhen is very domineering in arresting people. The problem is that whether it is Zhu Yuanzhang or Zhu Di, in addition to killing people, they are also very good at employing people. Hundreds of officials have one radish and one hole, and whoever is missing can immediately find a suitable candidate to replace them.

But Chongzhen can't do it. It's true that he has soldiers in his hands, but soldiers can only kill people, and government affairs depend on civil servants.

If he had this ability, he wouldn't have changed forty or fifty cabinet ministers in 17 years, and he hasn't done anything yet.

For so many years, Chongzhen probably also knew that he had a problem with his vision. After arresting so many officials, the court was almost paralyzed. Only then did Chongzhen finally think of Liu Hongjian.

Thinking that this Zhuzi had been idle at home for three days, he immediately ordered Wang Erxi to summon him, and brought along the Jinjue's edict by the way.

"It's good to catch it, so that the national treasury can be filled again." Liu Hongjian said quietly after listening to Wang Erxi's rambling.

Although most of the remaining officials were poor after the last raid on their homes, it is inevitable that some of them slipped through the net, and even if these officials were poor, their relatives were not necessarily poor.

Don't you hear that one person attains Taoism and ascends to heaven?

Liu Hongjian was noncommittal about torturing officials, as long as he didn't torment the common people, everything was fine, he could do whatever he wanted with soldiers in hand.

"Oh, my lord, this is an important matter for the country, why do you still think there is no chaos in the court!" Seeing that Liu Hongjian didn't take it seriously at all, Wang Erxi couldn't calm down.

Not only the court, but even the harem are uneasy. Ding Wang Zhu Cijiong and Zhu Cihong's mother compatriots, their son was arrested by his father, and Queen Zhou would definitely not do it.

Empress Zhou went to intercede for Zhu Cijiong, but Chongzhen was determined to kill relatives righteously, but refused.

Now Chongzhen has been in the Nuan Pavilion alone for three days, except for being angry at the court, he is angry in the Nuan Pavilion.

"Oh, the emperor is so pitiful, Xiao Wang, you have to take good care of the emperor, and the medicine can't be stopped." It's useless to be anxious, seeing Wang Erxi getting angry, Liu Hongjian accelerated his speed.

When he arrived at Qianqing Palace, Chongzhen had already been waiting here. He had just left the early court, and his anger was still there.

"Your Majesty, although state affairs are complicated, you still have to pay attention to your health!" Liu Hongjian said as he entered the hall in a hurry.
