I will be the prince at the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 139
In the Forbidden City, Ciqing Palace, Prince Zhu Cixuan sat in the middle, Qingchan and Qingyu stood behind him on one left and one on the right.

Zhang Huangyan, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, Chen Gong, a guest of the crown prince, Zhang Liao, the commander of Longxiangwei, Gao Shun, the commander of Longxiangwei, and Cai Jiuyi, the commander of Longxiangwei.

The former Minister of the Ministry of Punishment Wei Zhou Zuo, Minister of Industry Li Wei, Minister of Military Affairs Hu Shian, Minister of Rites Jiang Hede, Minister of Housekeeping Cheng Kegong, and Minister of Officials Jin Zhijun were divided into hatchbacks.

Just listen to Zhu Cixuan saying: "Wei Zhouzuo, Li Wei, Hu Shi'an, Jiang Hede, Cheng Kegong, Jin Zhijun, etc. can be convicted?"

When Wei Zhouzuo and others heard this, they hurriedly knelt down on the ground and said: "The guilty minister is guilty."

Zhu Cixuan stared and said: "You still know that you are guilty! Thanks to all of you who have read poetry and books, but you are wholeheartedly serving as slaves to the Tartars and oppressing us Ming people.

I won’t say anything about you two, Li Que and Jiang Hede, because Li Que, you were a candidate in the second year of Shunzhi. The Tartars single-handedly trained you. "

Li Kui's heart tightened, and he lowered his head.

Zhu Cixuan went on to say: "As for you, Jiang Hede, you are a Confucian scholar chosen by Emperor Taizong Huang Taiji when he conquered Zunhua. It seems that the word Hede was given to you by Huang Taiji!"

Jiang Hede touched his head to the ground and said, "His Royal Highness is wise."

"If the prince remembers correctly, your original name should be Jiang Yuanheng, Jiang Jiuzhen, right!" Zhu Cixuan said calmly.

Jiang Hede's forehead was sweating, and his heart was pounding. Didn't the prince just arrive in Yanjing?How can I know everything from more than 20 years ago, I can't help but feel fear.

"In the future, you should change back to your original names Jiang Yuanheng and Jiang Jiuzhen! The name Jiang Hede makes me uncomfortable just hearing the name."

"The criminal Jiang Yuanheng kowtowed to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for restoring the original name of the criminal." "Boom, boom, boom" kowtow three times in a row.

Zhu Cixuan ignored him, but turned his attention to Wei Zhouzuo, Hu Shi'an, Cheng Kegong, and Jin Zhijun and said, "Wei Zhouzuo, Hu Shian, Cheng Kegong, Jin Zhijun, you four, let the crown prince say something about you?" okay.

Wei Zhouzuo, you were a Jinshi in the 16th year of Chongzhen, Hu Shian, you were a Jinshi in the first year of Chongzhen, Cheng Kegong, a Jinshi in the 47th year of Chongzhen, Jin Zhijun, you were a Jinshi in the [-]th year of Wanli, and you are the right servant of the Ministry of War.Can you tell me what you have done all these years? "Zhu Cixuan slammed the table in front of him.

Cursed: "Everyone is full of poetry and books. Where is your loyalty, integrity, and shame? Have you been eaten by dogs? Where were you all during the tenth day of Yangzhou and the third massacre in Jiading? Your own compatriots, aren't you!" Zhu Cixuan said with emotion.

Wei Zhouzuo, Hu Shi'an, Cheng Kegong, and Jin Zhijun were dead, and kowtowed incessantly, saying: "The guilty minister is guilty, the guilty minister is guilty."

"You guys are so guilty, I think you all have forgotten your ancestors, and it's annoying to see you."

Cold sweat dripped from the foreheads of several people. It seemed that the prince was going to settle accounts after the fall. They only felt the darkness in front of them.

"Wei Zhouzuo, Li Wei, Jiang Hede, Cheng Kegong, Jin Zhijun, you all follow Zhang Huangyan and Zhang Shangshu to stabilize the order in the city for the prince. Anyone who takes the opportunity to make trouble, loot around, or insult women will be executed. The Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Rituals, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of Officials have resumed normal operation. If something goes wrong, the crown prince will ask you to settle the score again, so go away."

The former Minister of the Ministry of Punishment Wei Zhou Zuo, Minister of Industry Li Wei, Minister of Rites Jiang Hede, Minister of Households Cheng Kegong, and Minister of Officials Jin Zhijun kowtowed tremblingly and followed Zhang Huangyan out of the main hall of Ciqing Palace.

After leaving the main hall of the Ciqing Palace, these officials who had been up and down in the officialdom for decades realized that they had passed this level and their lives were saved. All they needed to do was to stabilize the situation in the city and do things with all their heart.

A few people looked at me and I looked at you, shaking their heads and smiling wryly. The young prince, His Royal Highness, turned out to be just beating them, telling them to come down and work hard, and had no intention of killing them.

They couldn't help admiring this young His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. They had only heard that this His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was not simple. When Nanming had only Teng Yue's land left, he tried his best to turn the tide and brazenly killed Ma Jixiang, the commander of Jin Yiwei, the powerful minister.

Afterwards, he rectified his troops and commanded [-] troops to support Li Dingguo. In a battle at Mopan Mountain, he used [-] remnants against Wu Sangui, King of Pingxi, Zhao Butai, General of Zhengnan, Doni, King of Duoluoxin County, and Luo Keduo, King of Duoluoping County. Dorobel Duran, the governor of Jixihageyi, the deputy governor of Manggutu, Fuka, Kexingge, Gushan Erzhen Shalibu, Zu Zerun, Fuguo Gonggantu, Zakana and other generals led The most elite fighters of the Thirty Thousand and Eight Banners.

Under the First World War, the elite army of the [-] Banners was wiped out, and these generals were also killed on the spot.From then on, it was out of control, winning consecutive battles, and finally broke into Yanjing City. The little emperor Xuan Ye fled in a hurry, and went back to his hometown directly.

However, these have nothing to do with them anymore, and now they have turned back into ministers with the voice of guilt, so let's do our best!Don't be caught by the braid by His Royal Highness the Prince.

oh!By the way, the braid, this rat braid can't be kept anymore, they hurriedly borrowed a few steel knives from the soldiers of Long Xiangwei, and cut off the braid.

Hu Shi'an in Ciqing Palace turned pale with fright at this time, Wei Zhouzuo, Li Wei, Jiang Hede, Cheng Kegong, Jin Zhijun and others, although they were scolded by Prince Ming in front of them, they seemed to have passed the test. If you stay by yourself, you won't want to chop off your own head, Hu Shi'an panicked.

"Hu Shi'an."

"The guilty minister is here." Hu Shi'an suddenly heard the crown prince above calling his name, and replied quickly.

"You go down and cooperate with Zhang Liaozhang to rectify the [-] green battalion soldiers. There must be no mistakes, understand?"

"The guilty minister understands that he will definitely assist Commander Zhang to rectify the [-] green battalion soldiers. Please rest assured, Your Highness."

"En!" Zhu Cixuan nodded, and then said to Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and Cai Jiuyi: "Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and Cai Jiuyi, you three will rectify the [-] green battalion soldiers, eliminate the old and weak, and the thorns in the army. We only need soldiers who obey orders. , go!"

Everyone kowtowed and exited Ciqing Palace.

A few days later, the armies of Jin Wang Li Dingguo and Gongchang Wang Bai Wenxuan also arrived in Yanjing. At this time, Li Dingguo's Huben Army and Bai Wenxuan's Wuxiang Army had a strength of over 12.

After deliberation, Zhu Cixuan sent Jin Wang Li Dingguo to send troops to recover Liaodong Town, Jizhou Town, Xuanfu Town, Datong Town, and Taiyuan Town.

Gongchang Wang Baiwenxuan sent troops to recover Yansui Town, Ningxia Town, Guyuan Town and Gansu Town.

After resting in Yanjing for three days, Zhu Cixuan strengthened each of Li Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan with 1000 Mauser 98K rifles, 10 new artillery pieces, supplemented ammunition, and allocated 300 million silver dollars. Li Dingguo and Bai Wenxuan led the army to set off.
