Chapter 620 Sending the Princess Out of Beijing

The first order was passed very smoothly. After all, Shibazhi didn’t have much interest in the imperial court, and they couldn’t intervene even if it was a little bit, so the emperor could do whatever he wanted, and no one came. Even Lan Tian's eyeliner in the court would not jump out against it, after all, they knew that they had no objection, and they might become the target of the court princes.

The first order is complete.

For the second order, Chongzhen waved his hand, and Wang Chengen said: "The second issue today, Your Majesty is grateful for the loyalty and bravery of Li Chaosheng, the magistrate of Lantian County, for his dedication to the country, and now he is going to personally send someone to send the eldest princess to Lantian to comfort him. "

As soon as the imperial decree came out, all the ministers below looked at each other in dismay, each with a very strange expression. They had also heard about Lan Tian's resignation, and they thought that the emperor would be better off after being so humiliated. I've arrived in Lantian, isn't that a bitch?

After all, the eldest princess is a princess of a country, representing the face of Daming. Now, in order to curry favor with a courtier, when he clearly expressed his unwillingness to marry the princess, he sent the princess to his territory again to express his condolences. It's so shameless.

This is the princess of Ming Dynasty, not the singer in Goulan, how could she be so humiliated?

Thinking of this, an old man with a white beard came out from the group of officials, knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, no, the princess is the face of Daming. It is already a treasonous act for that boy from Lantian to openly refuse His Majesty's marriage. Didn't the princess send the villain's arrogance up, and even put Daming's face on the ground, let Xiaoxiao's generation trample on it? Your Majesty's doing this is worthy of the ancestors of Daming, and can stop the people of the world Youyou's mouth."

"If Your Majesty insists on doing this, then Daming will become the laughing stock of the world, the authority and strictness of the emperor will be wiped out, and in the end the country will be destroyed!"

After hearing what the old minister said, Chongzhen took a look at the old minister. His face was familiar, as if he belonged to the Imperial Academy. In practice, the imperial court used them to set up archways. It was precisely because these old Hanlins regarded themselves as a moral benchmark, so at this time, seeing that the emperor didn't want to face Li Chaosheng, he quit immediately and knelt down to oppose the emperor's continued progress. A matter of humiliating Daming's face.

Chongzhen's face was a little red when he was told by the old man, but before he thought of how to refute the old man, Zhou Yanru, the chief assistant of the cabinet, stood up directly, pointed at the old man and cursed: "Old man!"

Zhou Yanru gritted his teeth when he called the old man, which made the old man tremble all over, and then looked at Zhou Yanru in surprise, thinking that the old man was sick, his voice almost scared him to death.

At this time, I saw Zhou Yanru staring at the old man with red eyes as if he was about to breathe fire, and scolded: "Old man, how dare you insult your majesty like this. For the sake of Ming Dynasty, your majesty, at the expense of face, let the princess go on an envoy to calm the thief's heart. This is eternal. What a famous monarch can do is comparable to the ancient Han Xin, who can endure the humiliation of his crotch, but you old man, who is used to doing it in the imperial court of the Qing Dynasty, only knows how to gain fame. Do you know how difficult the Ming Dynasty has reached? You dare to reprimand Your Majesty in public, this is a capital crime, and I am willing to ask Your Majesty to punish this official for his crime of disrespect!"

After Zhou Yanru finished speaking, he bowed to Chongzhen. Chongzhen didn't say anything when he saw this. At this time, Chen Xinjia directly came out and said: "The minister echoed the words of Zhou Ge, Your Majesty has worked hard for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, and even tolerated the rude demands of Lantian children. Seriously. I am moved by heaven and earth, but today this old man dared to utter wild words to His Majesty, it is simply unreasonable, Your Majesty, please issue an order to kill this dog's head, as a warning to others, so as to save the incompetent people in the world from barking and disturbing people .”

"You, you!"

The old man almost died of anger, trembling at this moment, stretching out his fingers, pointing at Zhou Yanru and Chen Xinjia, but he couldn't say a word.

At this moment, Zhou Yanru looked at the old man and thought to himself, this incident was originally brought about by himself, with the purpose of sacrificing a princess in exchange for the stability of Ming Dynasty. Apart from the embarrassment of the royal family, this incident did not damage the interests of the court princes in the slightest. , But what do you mean when you come out to object, an old gangster? When did the court need an old gangster like you to come out and do something.

So Zhou Yanru directly disregarded his identity, jumped out and yelled at this old guy. The first appearance of a boss of Zhou Yanru's level represented a signal that there was no room for negotiation on this matter. All Zhou Yanru's faction Officials can carry out the most cruel rounds of attacks on this person.

So after Zhou Yanru and Chen Xinjia came to the conclusion of this matter, the rest of the civil and military officials all came out to criticize the old Hanlin in the cruelest verbal and written terms. Hanlin's beard trembled wildly, and he didn't fall over in one breath, and fainted on the court hall.

Seeing this scene, everyone knows that this old Hanlin is finished, what good will he end up with after he has wicked so many princes and ministers in the court, and his reputation among the people is also over, at least he is a person who seeks fame The name cannot be taken off, but the old Hanlin is not afraid of offending the emperor.

Offending the emperor's civil and military ministers will make him famous. If the emperor is killed, it will be even more serious, and he will be praised by the civil and military ministers.

But if he offends the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, that's the end. He used to be a member of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty. Of course he knows how the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty deal with a person. The emperor holds the power of life and death, but if they kill them, they will How many people dream of becoming famous and leaving a name in history.

So the ministers are not very afraid of the emperor, but the ministers are very afraid of annoying most of the officials who are ministers in the same palace. If they are isolated by these people, then they may not lose their lives, but the reputation that they cherish most in their lives is not good. up.

You must know that the public opinion of the world is in the hands of these civil servants. They are powerful above the court, and their disciples are all over the world. Moreover, they are top-notch families in the local area. For the local people, the county magistrates may take turns. However, these aristocratic families will remain unchanged for a long time, and they will rule them forever.

An official represents the local forces in this place. Now that he offends the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, basically all the aristocratic families in the world will know that he is a person who is trying to gain fame, so his life is over?

All the ministers were the ancestors of the wind and the rudder. Seeing Zhou Yanru speak at this time, he immediately said that this old Hanlin is a person who is trying to gain fame, and the old Hanlin was immediately dizzy. In this case, it is definitely better for him to be dizzy than not to be dizzy, so he will be dizzy even if he is not dizzy.

"Your Majesty, this old thief has fainted!"

At this time, someone saw that Old Hanlin had fainted, and he couldn't bear to remind Chongzhen. Only then did Chongzhen wake up from the state of watching the excitement. Before this group of bastards were so excited, they still dealt with themselves. Don't have fun.

"Well, what you said is very true, Mr. Zhou Ge, how do you think this official should be dealt with?"

Zhou Yanru heard the words and looked at the old Hanlin who was pretending to be dizzy on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, according to the regulations of the Ming Dynasty, disrespecting your majesty is a capital crime, but your majesty, if you think about it, you are old and weak, and you have been an official for many years. There is suffering without merit." Lao, why don't you dismiss this guy from his post and drive him back to his hometown, never to be hired again."

After hearing this, Chongzhen nodded and said: "Well, it makes sense. Then, according to what Zhou Ge said, this official will be dismissed from office and never hired. Come in and drag him out."

"Yes."

Soon the guards standing guard at the gate dragged him out, and the old Hanlin dragged him away. Chongzhen looked at Zhou Yanru, and Chen Xinjia said: "You two think it is right or wrong for me to send the princess to Lantian again?"

After hearing this, Zhou Yanru said directly: "I think that your Majesty's move is really a blessing for Ming Dynasty. For the sake of Ming Dynasty, His Majesty is willing to let the princess marry Lantian and reward the pillars of the country. This is what Ming Jun did. I think that His Majesty's move is very right, compared with personal honor, the eternal state of the Ming Dynasty is what His Majesty should consider."

"Your Majesty seconded the proposal. It took great perseverance for His Majesty to allow the princess to marry Lantian for the second time regardless of personal honor and disgrace. I believe that what His Majesty has done is truly a model of a famous monarch through the ages. If you can really exchange the princess for Lantian's loyalty, it is absolutely The good fortune of Ming Dynasty is the good fortune of His Majesty."

At this time, Chen Xinjia was also flattering on the sidelines, and he wanted to be as explicit as possible, almost to praise Chongzhen, and Chongzhen didn't think there was anything wrong, after all, he sent his daughter out, so he endured the humiliation. You still don't say a few good things about me, it's really hard to say.

To put it bluntly, Chongzhen is now moved by himself. When a person is moved by himself, he dares to accept all unrealistic compliments from others.

Because he feels that he has endured humiliation, he should have a good result, just like Chongzhen now, he feels that he has let go of his self-esteem and gave his most beloved daughter to Li Chaosheng again, Li Chaosheng should be very moved If you feel that the emperor's kindness is mighty, you should be willing to let Chongzhen drive away, and you should help Chongzhen conquer the world.

After all, he gave up his dignity for Li Chaosheng, and also dedicated his most precious thing to Li Chaosheng. Why didn't Li Chaosheng accept it?
At this moment, Chongzhen was like a licking dog dazzled by love, thinking that he gave all his good things to the goddess, and the goddess would be moved, just like being with him.

In fact, they don’t know that women never come after you. When you are good enough, women will chase you on poles. And when a man regards a woman as a goddess, he will unconsciously dwarf himself Now, gods can only be with gods, how can they be with ordinary men like me.

So whether it’s chasing women or working, the most taboo is to be moved by yourself. It’s like at work, you are smart and work overtime for the boss, thinking that the boss will definitely see what you have done, and will definitely repay you in the future. .

But in the eyes of the boss, you are just a useful labor force, and you work overtime voluntarily. If you want to increase wages and get benefits, wait for the next life.

So self-improvement is the most advisable, and the emperor is the same. When Chongzhen was self-impressed, he felt that he had done a lot. If you Li Chaosheng refused once, would you refuse the second time?
My majestic emperor of the Ming Dynasty is so humble, you shouldn’t be so moved, you can’t wait to bow your head, even if you don’t accept your head, you should marry my daughter, obediently be my son-in-law, and be honest In Lantian, thank the emperor for his great grace, don't give me a moth at this time.

Therefore, Chongzhen also feels that he is quite great, not only great but also bears the burden of humiliation, comparable to Goujian of the Ming Dynasty, who suffers from hardships, and one day, he will lead the army of the Ming Dynasty, wipe out the Northwest, capture Li Chaosheng alive, and let him know the shame of today. The best emperor in the world is himself.

Chongzhen, moved by himself and praised by civil and military officials, issued a second decree, ordering Cao Huachun to lead three hundred brocade guards to escort the princess to Lantian to condolences to Li Chaosheng, the respected leader of Lantian County, and to bring some not very valuable royal gifts from the emperor things.

After all, the valuable Chongzhen was ready to rush into the inner treasury to solve Daming's financial problems, but he didn't have spare money to reward Li Chaosheng, and the reason why he asked the princess to bring something to Lantian was mainly because Chongzhen felt that Zhu Wei, a girl, was too sensible. I should bring something for my daughter, otherwise I will be underestimated by Lantian when I arrive in Lantian.

Therefore, Chongzhen gritted his teeth and asked Princess Changping to bring some things to Lantian.

The imperial decree was issued, the princess prepared in one day, and left the capital in two days. After two days, accompanied by the eunuch Cao Huachun, Princess Changping Zhu Yuxi left the capital for the first time.

In the Forbidden City, Empress Zhou held Aimee Zhu's hand and refused to let go, as if she wanted to send her daughter to the execution ground.

"Mother, the time has come."

Auntie Zhu looked at Empress Zhou's eyes dim with tears, and Empress Zhou wept silently when she heard the words: "Daughter, be careful when you go to Lantian. I heard that Li Chaosheng is a cruel person. Many big families in Lantian have their properties confiscated." , the land was kicked out, if there is any disagreement, you will be beheaded, you must be careful when you go this time, don't offend the murderer, if you can't do it, run back quickly, don't think about anything You have to remember the thought of him dying together, you always have a queen mother."

Auntie Zhu said: "It's the queen mother, I know, then I'll get in the car."

"Aimu, sister!"

Aimee Zhu turned around and wanted to get into the carriage. At this time, Empress Zhou yelled again, and the two little princes also yelled. Aimee Zhu smiled and said, "Okay, you all go back, and you two, study hard, don't worry about it." Make your mother angry, you know?"

"understood."

Zhu Cihong and Zhu Cijiong responded at this time. After saying this, Zhu Yuxi looked back at the palace where she lived and the father she wanted to see, but today the Emperor Chongzhen did not come to see her off. Zhu Yuxi was disappointed and blocked the carriage curtain. Cao Huachun said: "Eunuch Cao, let's go."

"Yes."
