Chapter 3 Edict: Fight the chaos and save the country

Chapter 3 Edict: Fight the chaos and save the country

"Grandson."

Wang Chengen held the decree in his hand, handed it to Sun Chengzong respectfully, and said, the performance of his own emperor just now made Wang Chengen guess in his heart that Sun Chengzong would be reused.

It's better not to offend a veteran minister like this.

"Thank you, my father-in-law."

Sun Chengzong nodded slightly, then lifted the sleeves of his robe, took Zhongzhi with respectful hands, and looked up at Emperor Chongzhen.

"Sun Qing, take a look first."

Emperor Chongzhen smiled slightly, and stretched out his hand to signal.

"The old minister leads the order."

Sun Chengzong bowed his head and saluted, then looked down, but what was written in the imperial edict caused Sun Chengzong's eyes to open slightly, and an incredible expression appeared on his face.

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, ruled: Since I was in the imperial court, I was afraid that the second lieutenant of the Ming Dynasty would make a mistake, and I would lose the emperor and the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty. I open my words and accept advice, and I will be an eunuch in the Qing Dynasty, and I will work hard to govern the country...

However, the abuse of the Jian captives in Liaodong has become the heart disease of Ming Dynasty.Today, Huang Taiji, the chieftain of captive slaves, led the establishment of the Eight Banners of captives, and the various tribes of Mongolia, avoiding the Jinning line of defense built by the imperial court, circumventing Mongolia, and invading our Daming territory.

From the frontier troubles to the capital, the courtiers, Jingqing, officials and censors, etc., have been arguing a lot. Although I want to remonstrate, my words are uncertain, and the foundation of the country has been touched. Therefore, I am determined to issue an edict to fight chaos and save the country...

He ordered Tianjin, Denglai, Dongjiang and other places to inherit the imperial edict, recite the root of the Ming Dynasty, read the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, and I will always be a sharp soldier of the Ming Dynasty, and go to King Qin of Beijing to rescue him.

The cabinet, upon hearing the imperial edict, immediately issued an edict, and admired this. "

"Your Majesty!! This edict must not be issued!"

Sun Chengzong couldn't hide his shock, he held Zhongzhi in his hand, opened his eyes slightly, looked up at Emperor Chongzhen, and said anxiously: "Although the Jiankui have the intention to wreak havoc on the capital of our Ming Dynasty, the imperial court is not without a chance to relieve the siege.

However, how can the theory of fighting chaos and saving the country be said so easily!
Once this edict is announced in the court, it will definitely cause great disturbances in the court, and it will also encourage Jianlu's arrogance.

And Tianjin, Denglai, Dongjiang and other places under the imperial edict led their troops all the way to help Gyeonggi, but they couldn't quench their thirst!

This edict is not a good thing for the country! "

Sun Chengzong wondered why the wise and wise Emperor Chongzhen issued such an edict. Once this edict is announced, it will undoubtedly be a big earthquake to the current Ming Dynasty.

"Sun Qing, I understand everything you said, and I have thought of it."

Emperor Chongzhen stood with his hands behind his back, and said calmly: "This time, the Jianlu invaders are raging on the important areas of Gyeonggi, and if we want to defeat the main force of the Jianlu Eight Banners, we still have to rely on the frontier troops guarding the Guan Jinning land.

But this time, I don’t intend to fight against Jianlu. The general’s confidential affairs will be handed over to the Ministry of War, or the cabinet will decide arbitrarily. They will disappoint me too much. "

Thinking back to the beginning and end of the Jisi Change, how many times before Da Ming's eyes, the battle that could end this catastrophe ahead of time was finally ruined due to the situation between the court and China, or personal will.

Emperor Chongzhen knew in his heart that if he wanted to reorganize the dilapidated Ming Dynasty in the future, the first thing to do was to withdraw the military power!
Daming, with endless party disputes and corrupt officials, wants to make changes, but he has no military power in his hands, so he is an empty emperor, and Emperor Chongzhen must take action to solve this.

Power grows out of the barrel of a gun.

Whether it's rectifying the court, reshaping the officialdom, or increasing income and reducing expenditure, etc., if you don't have military power in your hands, and you don't have the highest military decision-making power, then everything you do is in vain.

"Your Majesty, since you understand this, you should also be aware that in the current situation, the main focus should be to stabilize the situation and call back the border troops to help."

After hearing this, Sun Chengzong held the Zhongzhi in his hand and stepped forward to persuade him: "If the court situation is unstable, it will definitely affect the trend of this battle. If Jianlu is really called to seize the opportunity, it will lead to a more serious crisis.

This is definitely not a good thing for Daming and Sheji!

In my opinion, this edict must not be issued lightly, otherwise..."

"Sun Qing! Why don't you understand what I'm thinking?!"

Emperor Chongzhen sighed softly: "Is it just a simple disaster for Daming to build a border with captives and bandits? This is a catastrophe for my Ming Dynasty!
But it is also a chance to be reborn from Nirvana!

If I miss this opportunity and fail to take back some authority and create a new government office in the Chaotang, it will not change the status quo of Ming Dynasty at all!
Sun Qing, I just want to ask you, if you are asked to take charge of this battle, even if the situation in the court is turbulent, can you guarantee our Ming Dynasty to win the final victory! ? "

"minister……"

Sun Chengzong hesitated, with a worried look on his brows, and looked at the resolute Emperor Chongzhen. After thinking for a moment, he said seriously: "If your majesty trusts your ministers, you will be able to ensure this battle, and my Ming Dynasty will surely win!"

"Okay! It's good to have such determination!"

Emperor Chongzhen tossed his robes, looked at Wang Chengen and said, "Wang Daban, take this decree immediately, go to the cabinet, summon the officials from the Six Ministries, Branches, Taoists, etc., and read this edict to them.

I am in Qianqing Palace, waiting for them to come to see me! "

"The slaves obey the order."

Wang Chengen stepped forward immediately, saluted Emperor Chongzhen respectfully, then walked up to Sun Chengzong cautiously, and took the decree with both hands.

"Ah~"

Looking at the Zhongzhi taken away by Wang Chengen, Sun Chengzong sighed softly, but he was thinking in his heart, why the emperor insisted on issuing this edict!

"Cao Daban, send someone to Shangshan Bureau to prepare some simple meals for me and Sun Qing."

Seeing Sun Chengzong like this, Emperor Chongzhen looked at Cao Huachun, and said calmly: "In the past few days, I have been worried about the border war situation, and I have no appetite at all.

Now that Sun Qing is here, I feel a little more at ease, and I have some appetite. Sun Qing, you have been exhausted all this way, and you haven't eaten well, have you?
Wait a moment, let us monarchs and ministers fill our stomachs first, and there are still important things to do later. "

"The old minister kowtows to the emperor for his kindness!"

Sun Chengzong hurriedly bowed his head and saluted, waiting for Cao Huachun, then bowed his waist and left the main hall, went to arrange eunuchs outside the hall, and passed the meal to the imperial dining room.

"Sun Qing, there is no need to be so polite."

With a smile on his face, Emperor Chongzhen stepped forward, pulled Sun Chengzong up and said, "Because there is nothing to do, I will tell you about the difficulties I will face when I issue this edict.

When the officials are agitated and want to persuade me, I still need Sun Qing to help me. "

Ok?
Just now the emperor said that he was going to take advantage of the situation to take some power and create another government office, but how could he help the emperor?

Right now, the Dongdong Forest Party is powerful, and there are many ministers trusted by the emperor, but the emperor has said this to himself, so what he wants to do is not small.

Sun Chengzong secretly figured it out.

"Sun Qing, you have been at home all these years, have you ever thought in your heart that you will involve the urgent military affairs of the Ming Dynasty, avoid the cabinet, the Ministry of War and other government offices, and extract them from the political situation of the Ming Dynasty, so that I can make a quicker decision? "

Emperor Chongzhen talked about his thoughts while observing the changes in Sun Chengzong's expression.

After all, what I have planned will inevitably cause shocks in the court, and even lead to the theory of the so-called ancestral system, but if you want to seize power, put down the troubles of bandits and build captives, this is the way you must go.
