Haisheng Mingdi

Chapter 522 Upright Dare to Admonish Hong Chengchou, Resolutely Fight Qian Qianyi

The emperor decreed.

Shengdeng Prefecture is Tokyo Fengtian Prefecture.

All ministries and offices of the Nanjing court were also moved to Fengtian, Tokyo, and a set of six Nanjing ministries remained in Yingtianfu, Nanjing.

The decree will also cheer up the soldiers and civilians in Shandong, because it means that the emperor will not leave, and the emperor is required to guard the gate of the country.At this time, Dengzhou is already the front line, which is especially important. It goes out of Bohai Bay to connect with Liaodong, connects North Korea and locks Beijing and Tianjin, and goes down to Huaiyang to connect to Jiangnan.

Such a strategic location, the emperor directly promoted Dengzhou to Tokyo Fengtian, and he was firm.

Among the three cities of Dengzhou, Shuicheng is the emperor's palace city, Fucheng is the imperial city, and the previously added Shacheng is the capital city.

In the yamen of Jianyuan in Zhenhaimen in the north of Yuanfu City, Hong Chengchou, a doctor of Zuo Jianyi, sat on duty, urging all the subordinate officials of Jianyuan to work.

Under the leadership of Hong Chengchou, this newly established Jianyuan is now in the limelight. Especially with the support of the emperor, those five-rank officials in scarlet robes are selected in an eclectic manner.

It is no longer necessary to be born as a Jinshi as before, just like the dean Hong Chengchou was a traitor who was demoted to an official position, the second, third and fourth ranks of these admonitions and righteous words are not selected step by step, just the dozens of six subjects of the fifth rank. , as well.

This group of Feipao Lang from Jianyuan came from Jinshi, Juren, and even Gongsheng. What is even more amazing is that some of them were just ordinary people before entering Jianyuan.

Some even transferred from military positions to civilian positions from the imperial battalion and other armies.

There are young people in their twenties, as well as gray-haired old men in their [-]s and [-]s. Here, they don't look at whether the articles are good or not, and they don't look at the list of Jinshi, and they don't look at the background of teachers and friends. Word.

So there are Koreans, Annans, and Mongolians here.

There are wild students from the Eastern Zhejiang Uprising, scholars who abandoned their pens and joined the army, soldiers from tenants who joined the army, even tainted officials who had surrendered captives like Hong Chengchou, and former rebels like the former rebels who were born in Shunying. Venus.

As Li Zicheng's number one military adviser and prime minister, Niu Jinxing took his son Niu Quan to surrender to captives after Li Zicheng's defeat in Huguang. After Huaixi was surrendered to the city, the father and son were summoned to Beijing and sat on the bench for a while. Now Niu Jinxing is also appointed as the counselor of the court.

There is also Song Xiance, another military adviser of the Shun Army who was once squeezed out by Niu Jinxing. After he and Liu Zongmin were captured by the Qing army, he saved his life with a single mouth. The Jianyuan.

At present, there are more than 70 people in the six departments of Jianyuan. If you distinguish the origins of these official fifth-rank officials in scarlet robes, you will find that their composition is very complicated, including Jinshi, Juren, Xiucai, Jiansheng, and Gongsheng. , There are also martial arts, military officials, and even civilian gentry, as well as peasant army backgrounds, and even foreigners.

There are former eunuchs and Donglin.

There are former court officials and peasant rebels.

There are those who have surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and those who have surrendered to the Shun Dynasty, and many of them revolted against the Qing Dynasty in various places, and there are even those who were born in the Zheng family in Fujian and the Jesuit Catholic Church in Macau.

In short, it's like a hodgepodge.

But it was such a group of people who were appointed by the emperor's imperial decree, and after being specially appointed as officials, under the leadership of Hong Chengchou in the admonishment court, they were still quite powerful.

Accept the copy of the manuscript, cancel the reference of the science, remonstrate with the emperor, and offer advice and suggestions.

Participate in the deliberation of government affairs, all important events are discussed by the court, ministers are pushed by the court, and the judgment of the prison is involved.

They even participated in the evaluation of officials, imperial examinations, and major judicial cases. A large part of these people should have been liquidated in the new dynasty. But now they are appreciated and reused by the emperor.

So everyone is like beating chicken blood.

It should be said that although most of the remonstrance courts have complicated identities, they are indeed more capable.

For example, Niu Jinxing Song Xiance, Niu Jinxing himself was born in Juren, and he was selected as a scholar at the age of 20. His family is also a scholarly family in Henan. Many of his family were officials. It is the official of Prince Lu.

When Niu Jinxing was young, he lived a very good life. He was a family of officials, a scholarly family, and his family was still a landlord. After being elected, he opened a museum to teach apprentices. Familiar with war strategy.

Later, because of quarrel with relatives in the village, he was framed, and he was dismissed from his fame and served as an official in the army. Later, Li Yan introduced him to vote for Li Zicheng. Venus also contributed a lot.

Niu Jinxing must be responsible for Li Zicheng's collapse and failure. He may not be a good prime minister, but if he is used as a fifth-rank to give things, it must be more than enough.

After all, in the turmoil of the late Ming Dynasty, this was also the core decision-maker of the Dashun Dynasty, and he had experienced enough training.

Even Jin Shouheng, the grandson of Kim Sang-heon, the leftist politician of North Korea, is very knowledgeable, and because he is young, he worships Ming Dynasty, he is also very upright, and he does not show affection.

As for those Yuan Cong heroes who joined the emperor's army, it is even more serious. Some of these people used to be just scholars, and some used to be farmers, tenants or even servants, but most of them had experience in the imperial camp and army. Passionate and loyal.

Some people were even the leaders of slave rebels in various places in the late Ming Dynasty, such as the nose-shaving class in Jintan, Jiangsu, the Lirenhui in Macheng, Hubei, and the White Turban Army in Taihu Lake. At first, they just fought against oppression and fought for freedom. Later, Zhu Yihai raised his troops against the Qing Dynasty, and some slave-turned-army leaders took the initiative to respond to the anti-Qing Dynasty. Therefore, some slave-turned-army leaders who were former servants also became generals and officials of the Shaotian Dynasty. Some of them were even arranged to join the Jianyuan to do things.

Dengzhou is very lively recently.

The imperial edict established Fengtian Mansion, the eastern capital, and various ministries moved here. The population increased greatly, and even the garrison increased.

Although the emperor's intention to move the capital was opposed by many ministers, they felt that it was too risky to directly move the capital to Dengzhou before Jinan was captured.

However, at the court meeting held, Zhu Yihai emphasized the emperor's intention to guard the gate of the country, and even guarded Dengzhou himself to ensure the stability of this strategically important area, and once again let the people of the world understand that he will not negotiate peace with the Tartars , no matter how the Tatar seeks peace now, he will not agree.

Not to mention using the new Yellow River to demarcate the border, promising to give Daming both Henan and Shandong, even if they give Shaanxi, Gansu and Hanzhong to Daming, it won't work.

Daming must reap the entire customs inside and outside the customs, and will not give up an inch of land.

At that court meeting, Zuo Admonisher Hong Chengchou spat bloody heads one by one on the officials who dared to say that they wanted to negotiate a peace, with reasons and evidence, various rebuttals, a firm attitude, and fully supported the emperor's will.

Liu Zongzhou, the No. 1 censor of Zuodu, who is usually the No. [-] censor, was caught off guard, and the thirteen censors under him also moved a beat slower, allowing the six departments of the Jianyuan to steal the limelight.

It was also this time that everyone discovered that they thought that the Jianyuan was a mob, but who knew that they were all talented people.

That Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance can push people to the sky.

Jin Shouheng, a stick boy from North Korea, who can quote scriptures and refute people is speechless. Even a few Mongolian strong men shouted that whoever dares to talk about peace will splash blood on the hall with him to eliminate harm for the king.

Qian Qianyi, the leader of Donglin who used to be the leader of surrendering captives, is now an admonishing doctor from the right. Voice.

Obviously these people used to be surrenderers and traitors, but now they have become the most determined main fighters.

Things are often so strange, when the emperor sits there, he doesn't even need to open his mouth during the court meeting, and the group of people in the remonstrance court rush forward like wolves, biting and tearing anyone they meet.

If one is not good, it will be so gentle that it will lose all dignity.

Hong Chengchou and Qian Qianyi took the lead in the charge, and they had no scruples, but they were officials, so they could say anything.

In the past dynasties, officials were selected based on three things: first, they did not love wealth and honor; second, they cared about reputation;

But today's admonishment court is very perverted. Most of the people in it are famous. For example, Hong Chengchou and Qian Qianyi are all famous big traitors. Niu Jinxing and Song Xiance used to be the prime minister of Dashun. The traitors accounted for more than half.

However, these smudged guys now have no fear or worry at all. The past is the past, and now they have started again, supported by the emperor, and ordered to tear people apart.

That's called tearing the one who has no scruples and is unscrupulous.

Even these people are more capable than each other, such as Qian Qianyi, the former Donglin leader, who has many years of experience in party struggle, is very good, and Hong Chengchou is even more incredible. He is an all-rounder.

With Zhu Yihai's current prestige and control over the court, in fact, many things can be resolved directly, whether it is the selection of cabinet ministers and commanders, the governor-general, or the selection of ministers and ministers. It is enough to teach, and important military affairs are also a matter of one sentence.

But now the emperor has started to pay more attention to the system and pay attention to the procedure instead.

At first, some ministers thought it was a good thing, and finally they could avoid the emperor's dictatorship again. Who knew that the emperor built a remonstrance house, filled it with a bunch of strange people, and then made them speechless.

The four sons of Fushe are now also awarded to Shizhong, and by the way, their Fuxing newspaper is also included in the name of Jianyuan, and a new newspaper is even launched, called Jianbao.

Not only will they tear you up in court and court meetings, but they will hang you up in the newspapers after they finish tearing it up. These people are all excellent at speaking and writing. .

It took a very short time for Jianyuan to become famous in the government and the public.

Now the government and the public have specially arranged a list of the latest Jiuqing, Dr. Zuo Jianyi is ranked No. 1, above the Ministry of Officials.

Behind the doctor Zuo Jianyi of the Jianyuan, there are six ministers, then the censor of Zuodu, and then the minister of Dali Temple, and the general governor falls out of the traditional nine officials.

"Dean!"

The official officer in a scarlet robe came in, "This is the typesetting of this issue's Remonstrance News and Fuxing Daily, please review it by the dean. In addition, His Majesty has decreed that a court meeting will be held tomorrow."

"What are you talking about?"

"Discussing etiquette, discussing military affairs, discussing ministers, discussing official system, discussing titles, discussing finances, and discussing disaster relief. Officials of the fifth rank and above in Beijing from the temple, the imperial camp and other ministries will all participate in the court discussion together!"

Hong Chengchou was stunned for a moment.

Put down the pen in your hand. Under normal circumstances, even if a court meeting is held, only one matter will be discussed at a time. In addition to the main ministers, some officials from the corresponding departments will be called to participate.

Now there are seven major issues to be discussed at one time, and each one is so important.

He keenly sensed something was wrong.

It's already August, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. At this time, where is the big event happening?

"Pijiang, is there any new news coming to Beijing recently?"

"No, Shandong is still in chaos after the disaster. Henan and Beizhi provinces are also involved. Li Jiyu and Xu Dingguo in Henan, Tu Guobao in Beizhi are still in trouble, Jiang Yu in Shanxi, and Wang Yongqiang in northern Shaanxi. , Longyou He Hongqi, Mi Layin, etc. are still fighting against the Qing army. Even Zhang Xianzhong in northern Sichuan has already passed his adopted son Zhang Dingguo to Hanzhong via Yinping Road, and then Zhang Kewang took the road to capture Dingjun Mountain. , while Hauge and Wu Sangui were returning to Beijing, they surrounded Li Guohan at Yangping Pass, but the winner has not yet been decided!"

Hong Chengchou frowned, then why are there suddenly seven major issues being discussed?
　Thanks for the friendship of time and time, and the reward and support of Mingyue Buzhou, thank you!
