Haisheng Mingdi

Qian Qianyi suddenly passed out at the meeting of the Prime Minister's Office in the Hall of Martial Arts, and even became incontinent. Benefits were carried out.

Zhu Yihai was very upset when he was tricked.

Geng's second child committed suicide in Phi Island, which made him dissatisfied. He originally wanted the various divisions to interrogate and settle Geng's second. The drunkard's intention was not to drink, but to deal with some internal instability before he ascended the throne. factors, and even some chaotic trends of thought.

But he committed suicide.

Even Jin Yiwei couldn't stop it. I have to say that Geng's second son turned his back on him again until his death. Zhu Yihai's treatment of him and the Geng family in the palace has always suppressed his anger. He died too easily. It failed to achieve the typical role he wanted.

As a result, Qian Qianyi, the predestined model, made such a move again.

Zhao An, the servant, came in to report.

"How is it, is Qian Qianyi awake?"

Zhao An bowed and replied: "Qian Qianyi has woken up, but started talking nonsense, like crazy."

Zhu Yihai snorted coldly.

The emperor hates courtiers guessing his own mind the most, but Qian Qianyi is jealous of guessing the holy will, and even let Liu Rushi enter the palace to seduce him, is he still crazy now?

He never believed it. When he was in the hall, he suspected that Qian Qianyi's coma and incontinence were actually faked on purpose, this old guy.

In order to survive, all the bad tricks were used.

In vain, he was also known as the leader of Donglin, the master of the literary world, but this person regarded himself as a Qingliu, but he was extremely keen on fame and fortune. He was superficially sanctimonious, but flattered the eunuchs to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. He was by no means a loyal and patriotic generation, just a repeat An impermanent person.

He was a prodigal son when he was young, an enthusiastic politician in middle age, a traitor who surrendered in his later years, and even in the past few years, he was a courtier who blindly flattered and flattered the king without a real ministerial attitude.

A lifetime of ups and downs, no position, no national integrity, nothing but fame and fortune, although the scholars all respect him as the suzerain of articles, saying that he has no other for a hundred years, but no matter how talented, this is not a righteous plan, what else?
Although this is also a common problem of countless literati and bureaucrats since the late Ming Dynasty, for Zhu Yihai who almost started to rebuild the Ming Dynasty, especially when he was about to abdicate, he had to treat Qian Qianyi, a civil servant who was repeatedly selfish, Carry out a vigorous rectification of Geng Zhongming, Wu Sangui, the kind of traitorous warriors who support the soldiers and self-respect, who slaughter cities and loot the people for nothing, and who have no imperial power and no country in their eyes.

Even if it is overkill, it is necessary.

Before he retreated, he did what he had to do, even if he slashed and killed a little bit harder, it would be a good time for the new emperor to show his kindness.

Otherwise, if everyone still has the same old thinking since the late Ming Dynasty, even if the Ming Dynasty recreates it now, it may not prosper for long.

Basically within a hundred years, there will be no real foreign enemies in Eastern Ming Dynasty.

But strong fortresses are often breached from within.

Zhu Yihai's liquidation of Geng Zhongming, Qian Qianyi, Hong Chengchou, Wu Sangui and others now feels like crossing the river, demolishing bridges, dismantling mills and killing donkeys, but he has to do it.

If he was given another 30 to [-] years, he could use more gentle methods to slowly reverse the unhealthy trend since the late Ming Dynasty, but he ran out of time. …

The prince is still too young to have really experienced that chaotic era, and he also lacks sufficient means to control those people.

He can't take risks.

Since he didn't have time, he would cut the mess quickly, even if he would bear some infamy, but he didn't care, the emperor was not a saint, and governing the country was not like treating guests to dinner.

At that time, the situation forced us to compromise and give in. Now that we have the conditions, of course we have to settle the old and new scores together.When there are no conditions, even if you are supported by these rebellious officials and thieves, you can’t help yourself, even if you are tied up and surrendered to the enemy, you can only lament the bad fate. What they want, they can only give. King, even the ancestral graves were dug up by the thieves, but at the critical moment, they had to be made princes to unite them.

But once you have the conditions and the capital, who will let go of the chance to kill the other party?

It is like the small imperial court of the Southern Ming Dynasty in history. Although they recruited Shunying, they later united with Xiying. Li Dingguo, Sun Kewang and others in Xiying who were once life and death enemies, and Li Guo and Yuan Zongdi in Shunying, faced the great enemy of the Manchu Qing. , and can only be combined temporarily.

But their alliance is nothing more than their own calculations. In history, even if they are under the pressure of the Manchu Qing, they still have internal strife whenever they have the opportunity, and they have not stopped this kind of calculation and internal strife until their demise.The small imperial court of the Southern Ming Dynasty always wanted to kill these traitors, and Sun Kewang was actually just temporarily borrowing the banner of the Ming Dynasty, even to avoid being attacked by the enemy. How could he have any real respect for Emperor Yongli and the imperial court? Manchu Qing, even if they were able to separate the regime in the south and stabilize half of the country, I am afraid that they would kill Emperor Yongli and abolish the decorative court immediately.

Everyone knows it well, but sometimes they have to compromise to get what they need.

Compared with other emperors, the difference between Zhu Yihai and other emperors may be that he has a clearer understanding of these things, without the slightest twitching, and when necessary, he directly goes to join forces to appease them, and he can even really unite them and give them enough trust. It is also reserved.

Those small imperial courts in Nanming, no matter whether they were against Shunying or Xiying, or even those who surrendered anyway, no one really trusted them, and they always wanted to annex them by internal strife, but Zhu Yihai was able to unite and use these people very well, and first concentrate on the Northern Expedition The great work is done until now.

It is too late to take action now, and the current liquidation is relatively restrained, only targeting these people themselves, and even discussing their merits in the end to leave a legacy to their descendants.

They are all thousand-year-old foxes.

It's not that they don't have small plans, but they have never had a chance and they don't have enough chips.

But at the time of life and death, I still want to struggle.

Geng's second brother directly looked for an opportunity to get rid of Jin Yiwei and committed suicide, thinking that he would kill everything and save the family's wife and children.Qian Qianyi pretended to be crazy and foolish, trying to get away with it.

"Send the imperial doctor to treat him well, and also send Jin Yiwei to protect him, so that he will not accidentally fall into the water or die." Zhu Yihai said angrily.

What he wants is to publicly and formally judge these people, and to lay out their merits and demerits, especially those who have repeatedly jumped, betrayed their country and led the way, etc., as a model, not just want him to disappear . …

It is very easy for the emperor to kill a person, but what he wants to kill now is Qian Qianyi, Wu Sangui and other civil servants and generals who once held high positions and held real power, and even the so-called Qingliu celebrities and scholar leaders. Your thoughts.

It is necessary to kill a group of typical representatives of this kind of thinking, in order to truly have a deterrent effect.

Of course, it also cleared some obstacles for the new emperor who was about to ascend the throne that he could not control.

Geng Zhongming's plot failed and he committed suicide, Qian Qianyi's palace passed out and became insane, and the city was full of storms for a while. These news were very shocking.

In Sijiu City, there were officials of honor and relatives all over the place, and there were many well-informed people. Soon all kinds of rumors spread, even the news that the emperor was going to give the throne to the crown prince.

There is a rumor that is getting stronger and stronger.

It is said that the emperor is seriously ill, and time is running out. In order to maintain the stability of the imperial power of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Shaotian wants to punish the heroes to protect the country.

It is also said that Zhu Yihai will be Zhu Yuanzhang's second, and the heroes will be hard to protect.

Jin Yiwei and Dongchang reported the detected information to the emperor in secret. There was indeed someone fanning the flames behind these rumors. Zhu Yihai looked at the lists and just smiled without saying a word.

Before a storm comes, it is normal for wild animals to scurry in the forest.

Qian Qianyi was still insane, and even poured the food he brought, and then grabbed shit in the bowl and put it in his mouth to eat.

In terms of an actor's self-cultivation, Qian Qianyi is already a master.

I have to say that he spent half his life in the brothel Chuguan, and he has learned a lot of acting skills on the spot, not to mention his superb acting skills, especially if he can survive.

Facing such a guy who refused to cooperate, Zhu Yihai had no patience.

Wu Sangui and Hong Chengchou are also on their way to Beijing.

This time the factory guards sent a lot of people to watch them overtly and secretly, and the generals of the imperial guards went to pick them up in person to ensure that there would be no second Geng Zhongming.

Faced with Qian Qianyi's lack of cooperation, Zhu Yihai sent someone to summon Liu Rushi directly. Among all the rumors recently, there was also a scandal about Liu Rushi entering the palace and being blessed by the emperor. The people were very excited about this news. But there is no bad comment, on the contrary, it is very gossip. After all, it is generally recognized that today's emperor is romantic. These concubines of the six palaces often promise hundreds of emperors with more than 80 sons and daughters. Can they not be romantic?
Especially the matter between the emperor and Wang Sangyu from Shandong in the past, people talked about it even more, and Concubine Ruan Gui, didn't she stay with the emperor before she got divorced?
Everyone thinks this kind of sexual affairs, especially the emperor's such sexual affairs, is very normal. After all, it is not a matter of oppression and coercion. It is very different from those emperors of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

The factory guard found out that the rumors were secretly spread by the Qian family.

When Liu Rushi received the order at home, she felt complicated.

She didn't talk to Qian Qianyi again after she went home that day. Her husband thought that the emperor had favored her, but she didn't explain or deny it, and even deliberately didn't explain it. This made her feel a little bit revenged on her husband.

She returned to the manor in Xishan early the next morning after that day, and within a few days her husband fell into a coma in the Hall of Martial Arts. She also sent someone to visit him, but the emperor left him in the Imperial Hospital and could not come back. …

She was also worried these days, and she had trouble sleeping and eating for several days. Later, she learned from Qian Yangxian, who came back from visiting her husband, that her husband was pretending to be crazy. angry.

This made her inevitably recall the scene of being mercilessly rejected and even humiliated by the emperor.

However, her husband secretly instructed Qian Yang to spread the scandal first, which made her even more sad.

These days, she feels as if her days are like years.

The emperor suddenly called her into the palace, and she was stunned for a long time before calling the maid to dress her up. Looking at herself in the mirror, her face was still so beautiful, and her skin was still so shiny and delicate. It was the most mature and beautiful time, why did the emperor just Indifferent?
Now suddenly come to call, but change your mind?
What should she do if the emperor has such thoughts after meeting?Reject or accept?

Head full of confusion.

Qian Yang first heard that the emperor had summoned Liu Rushi, so he hurriedly begged to see him, dismissed the servants, and confessed in a low voice.

"Please ma'am, the master and the Qian family are all counting on Madam."

Liu Rushi's exquisite face was full of shame and anger, she pointed at Qian Yang and cursed, "You bastards, how can you be so dirty, you have to rely on a woman for your business?"

"Ma'am, please think about the master and the family, even if you think about the young lady."

"By selling out your wife?"

Qian Yang knelt down and kowtowed to her first.

Liu Rushi angrily smashed her beloved tea set, and even her favorite pot of jasmine tea was knocked to the ground. She went out in shame and annoyance, and finally got into the carriage arranged by Qian Yang. Also added makeup.

In the emperor.

The prince came to pay his respects to the emperor, brought up some rumors that were raging in the capital, and even asked some unbearable instructions, since Qian Qianyi was so crazy and stupid that he would eat his own shit, should he just let him go.

Zhu Yihai smiled.

He gave a four-word reply, "The kindness of a woman!"

"You don't have to worry about these things, you just take care of the rest, and I will take care of these things myself."

The crown prince still doesn't quite believe that Qian Qianyi is actually pretending. How could the dignified leader of Donglin, Wenzong of the world, do such disgusting things because he was afraid of death?
But Zhu Yihai told him, did Qian Qianyi do too many disgusting things?The water is too cold and the scalp itches, isn't it enough?

Zhu Yihai saw Liu Rushi in the imperial garden, which is also called Gonghou Garden, behind the Kunning Palace, it is the first of the four gardens in the Forbidden Palace, and it can directly connect to the East, West and Sixth Palaces.

The imperial garden is very elegant, and there are many colorful pavilions in the garden.

"Your Majesty summoned Madam at Wanchun Pavilion, please."

Liu Rushi was a little dazed along the way, thinking wildly all the time, and even couldn't help but think of some charming scenes with the emperor, her face couldn't help but flushed, and the servant thought she was unwell.

Hearing to be summoned at the Wanchun Pavilion, I began to wonder if there was any special meaning, otherwise why did I choose this, the word Wanchun always seemed to have an allusion.

Could it be that the emperor really wanted to..., but what was the emperor's attitude that day?
"Ma'am, here we are."

The servant's voice brought her back to reality from her wild thoughts. …

A servant called out loudly to announce, and the voice of calling came from inside.

"Ma'am, please."

Liu Rushi touched his hot face, hesitated for a while, but finally stepped into the moon gate.

The Wanchun Pavilion in midsummer is still surrounded by flowers and green leaves, and the emperor is in the pavilion.

She bit the bullet and went over, bowing and saluting.

Zhu Yihai nodded to her: "Sit."

"Qian Qianyi and I pretended to be crazy and foolish. I was very unhappy, so I called my wife here today, because I wanted my wife to convey a few words to him. I can't stop what should come. It's better to let nature take its course. If I can cooperate wisely, I will also Reminisce about the past."

"I'm giving him two ways now, one is to continue pretending to be crazy with me, and the result is that Qian Qianyi and Qian's family will be killed. This is the end of deceiving the emperor."

"If he can cooperate, then I will only deal with him alone. The three generations of the Qian family will go to Annan, and the rest of the nine clans will go to the Western Regions, Heilongjiang and other places to cultivate. Give them one hundredth of their property back, so that they can resettle in the exile, except for the three-generation restriction that they are not allowed to take imperial examinations, serve as military officials and cannot move back to the mainland, and the rest are not limited, and they are still registered citizens.”

"Choose one of the two, and I will have the result today."

Liu Rushi didn't expect to call her here for this, she was a little dazed, and asked after a long time: "Is there anything else your Majesty needs my concubine to do?"

Zhu Yihai said bluntly to her: "I was in the same age as you, and I know that your background was not easy, and half of your life was hard. In the end, it is considered unkind to follow Qian Qianyi. I heard that when the Tartars went south to cross the river, you took Qian Qianyi there. You threw yourself into the lake, but you fell into the water, but he said the water was too cold and dragged you back. Just because of this, Madam deserves my respect.

I know that Qian Qianyi wants to sell his wife for safety, but I respect my wife. "

"I will pardon my wife and daughter, and leave you a house and a farm from Qian's property..."

After Zhu Yihai finished speaking, he got up and left.

Leaving Liu Rushi alone in Wanchun Pavilion, sitting in a daze, the cranky thinking and all kinds of entanglements when he came here were all in vain, but this time it didn't feel as humiliating as when he was rejected for the first time, on the contrary, he felt a little more. Very relieved, even grateful and respectful.

Under the escort of the guards, Liu Rushi went to the imperial hospital and met Qian Qianyi. He was disheveled and smelly all over, and even grabbed feces with both hands and scribbled on the wall...

Seeing him like this, Liu Rushi frowned, suddenly hating this bad old man very much.

When she stepped forward, Qian Qianyi saw a flash of surprise in her eyes, but then pretended not to know him, and continued to pretend to be crazy.

She was far away, and the general of the Imperial Guard directly called the other guards away.

There are only two people left.

Qian Qianyi was still pretending, Liu Rushi watched it quietly for a while, and finally stepped forward a few steps, and stopped a few steps away.

"I just went to meet the saint."

Qian Qianyi stopped his hands, his eyes were full of grief and indignation.

"The sage knew that you were pretending to be crazy, so I'll give you two choices!" Liu Rushi said in a cold voice, and the stinking old man in front of her was once her eyes full of love.

"Everything can't escape the eyes of a sage, and it's not an option for you to pretend to be a fool."…

Qian Qianyi stared at Liu Rushi, the most talented and beautiful woman on the ten-mile Qinhuai River, but now she stood away in disgust.

Sure enough, he climbed another high branch.

"We have shared the same bed for more than ten years, but they are no match for the second spring breeze. When you have a new love, you forget the old one. Are you so eager to ask me to die?"

"Don't you have any old love in your heart?"

Liu Rushi didn't want to explain.

"Your Majesty said that our daughter will stay with me, and we will also leave a house and a farm."

Qian Qianyi got angry, he raised the dung in his hand and threw it at Liu Rushi, Liu Rushi screamed and fled in a panic, and ran away without looking back.

Qian Qianyi angrily chased after him with hands full of dung, but was stopped by the guards at the gate of the courtyard.

The general of the Imperial Guard who sent Liu Rushi held his knife and yelled angrily, and restrained him, "Qian Qianyi, do you want to choose?"

Qian Qianyi stayed on the spot, trembling uncontrollably, and finally kneeled on the ground with weak legs, sobbing, and extremely desperate.

Looking at Liu Rushi who was avoiding him from a distance, Qian Qianyi, who was devastated by everything, had to choose the first option in the end.

"Have you chosen?"

Qian Qianyi nodded.

"Then please go to take a bath and change clothes, and then move to Dali Temple for interrogation, and cooperate with the investigation."

Qian Qianyi lowered his head, his eyes lost any color. At this moment, he almost went crazy.

The general of the Imperial Guard did not sympathize with him at all, "Mr. Qian was born with a good heart, and Shandou is famous all over the world. The country is broken and the official is still the old Donglin." The general said this with sarcasm A poem, the old guy should have been liquidated long ago.
