Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

Chapter 233
Through the recent taxation sit-in in Chongwenmen, and some of the ripples caused by the Yuan case, Emperor Chongzhen realized more clearly the intricate network of relationships in the Ming Dynasty.

Different from the early days of the Tianqi Dynasty, the Donglin Party of the Chongzhen Dynasty has many officials in Beijing, but they are not as firmly in control as before.

Hidden under the edge of the Donglin Party today, there are many factions. These groups that can be officials in the court all represent local gentry and landlord groups.

The imperial court and place of the Ming Dynasty seem to be two separate areas, but with the extension of multiple relationships such as teachers and students, disciples, former officials, in-laws, etc., can't they weave an intricate network of relationships?

As long as it is a living person, there will be corresponding needs, whether it is spiritual, physical, or material, it is inevitable that they will get closer together.

In a sense, the confrontation between the power of the monarch and the power of the ministers is a pure conflict of interests. If the emperor gets more, they will get less accordingly.

"Wang Qing, step back first." Seeing Wang Qia and the others look worried, Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "Properly resolve all the existing matters in the military aircraft department."

"...The minister waits to leave."

Wang Qia and other officials from the Military Aircraft Department bowed their hands one after another, and then left with their own thoughts, but their intuition told them that the emperor would not simply deal with this matter.

"Those officials kneeling at the Meridian Gate, do you remember clearly who they are?" After Wang Qia and the others left, Emperor Chongzhen looked at Li Fengxiang and said, "I don't want to make trouble for them, but instead make trouble for me one by one. "

"Your Majesty, the servants have all written it down."

Li Fengxiang hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "Some ministers in the outer court always ignore the emperor's benevolence and want to provoke the emperor's bottom line, the servants in their hearts..."

Listening to what Li Fengxiang said, Emperor Chongzhen showed a playful smile. This Li Fengxiang in front of him is not a good guy. If he is released, he will destroy Daming's house thief Shushuo, but staying by his side as a vicious dog is still Feasible, the big deal is to kill it at the end.

"Go, find some well-built eunuchs from the Supervisor of Rituals." Emperor Chongzhen looked at Li Fengxiang with a cold expression, and said, "You are in charge of this matter, and Jin Yiwei is responsible for the prison sentence, and beat me severely. Dare to say such words of disaster and chaos, I want to see if their butts are tough, or the court is tough!
Everyone wants to gain fame with this, okay, then I will satisfy them, don't beat them to death, I want to keep them alive, I want them to watch themselves ruined, but there is no way.

After this matter is done, you go to Jinyiwei personally, and ask Luo Yangxing to check the list of officials you know. Who are these officials relying on. "

"Slave order!"

Li Fengxiang's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly clapped his hands in response, with an excited look on his face, his royal lord entrusted him with such important errands, if he can do it well, he will definitely be reused in the future.

It's just that how could he know that in Emperor Chongzhen's heart, he had already entered the cold palace, and he simply used it if he could use it, and killed him if he couldn't use it.

The current atmosphere in Ming Dynasty is very bad. Whether it is an official in the court, an official in a local area, or generals in various places, including the factory guard forces, they have all kinds of calculations in everything they do.

Things that are beneficial to them, all of them are extremely positive, otherwise it is another situation, this is the aftermath of party struggle.

That is to say, the current Emperor Chongzhen had done various things before, which greatly deterred the forces of the factory guards, so that at this stage, the inner court and Jin Yiwei did not dare to have any hidden selfish deeds.

"Han Zanzhou, Wang Daban, is there any news about what Wang Daban is planning?" The somewhat tired Emperor Chongzhen rubbed his temples and said to the silent Han Zanzhou.

"Go back to the emperor, I haven't heard from the eunuch Wang yet." Han Zanzhou leaned slightly and said, "Should I send someone to ask Wang Banban?"

"There's no need to ask."

Emperor Chongzhen sighed softly: "Send someone to tell Wang Daban that the errands set earlier should be completed as soon as possible. There are still many things to be resolved later."

"Here!"

A batch of family property that had just been confiscated by the Inner Factory and the West Factory, had not yet warmed up in the arms of Emperor Chongzhen, and most of them had to be taken out to solve the problems encountered by the military aircraft department.

Although the team led by Zhou Yuji rushed to the area of ​​Zhangjiakou to deal with the eight major Shanxi merchants, they would steal an astonishing fortune.

Including the current side of the capital, some people who are secretly scheming will not escape the fate of being arrested, but the money obtained from the ransacking of the house cannot compare with the continuous source of income after all.

In the Ming Dynasty, there was a problem with the structural framework. If only the house raids were carried out continuously, it would inevitably go to the other extreme. If it was serious, there would be serious riots in various places.

Therefore, if we want to solve the problem fundamentally, we must grow as soon as possible. The state-owned economy led by Neichang will complement each other and move forward in order to stabilize the basic order of Ming Dynasty.

"You treacherous eunuchs, let go of me quickly. What do you want to do? Don't think that I will be afraid of you if you speak out to deceive His Majesty."

"Your Majesty, don't you really deny loyalty and traitor?"

Just when Emperor Chongzhen was thinking about the various plans to be carried out in the future, the team of eunuchs led by Li Fengxiang in the important place of the Meridian Gate at that time captured the group of imperial officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate who wanted to gain fame with this.

In fact, since the Ming Dynasty, there have been many powerful civil servants. In order to gain fame and achieve certain political demands, they would anger the emperor and fight in court.

In the eyes of the emperor, court battles are a means of righteousness, but in the eyes of court officials, it is a kind of tyranny, but it is also a good place to gain prestige.

"The emperor has a decree to severely beat these treacherous ministers who disturb the court!" The feeling of being glared at and scolded by more than a dozen censors made Li Fengxiang anxious, and he immediately shouted in a deep voice: "Dare to speak out the truth of the overthrow of the society!" Literally, you guys are really disgusting."

"Snapped!"

"what……"

Just when these civil servants who were pressed on the long bench wanted to scold Li Fengxiang angrily, those eunuchs who were holding the board smashed down one by one with restrained anger.

There are a group of eunuchs in the inner court who know how to punish life and death with sticks. Killing life and killing them are all in their minds. Don't look at Li Fengxiang's words, but before coming to the Meridian Gate, Li Fengxiang deliberately explained to these eunuchs who executed , Court battles are fine, but these civil servants cannot be killed.

Looking at the screaming officials in front of him, Li Fengxiang, who was standing with his hands down, had a slight smile on his face, couldn't they scold each of them?
OK!

Our family asks you to scold well one by one!
