Be the emperor from the postman

Chapter 887 Intersection (Two in One)

In order to expand the demand for military talents, Chongzhen personally promoted Wang Qia and Liang Tingdong.

As a result, one died in the third year of Chongzhen. Because of the incident of the later Jin Tartars ravaging the capital, he, the minister of the Ministry of War, could not play the role Chongzhen wanted, and was sent to imperial prison.

Liang Tingdong was asked to take the blame and resign because of the Battle of Dalinghe, but Chongzhen still promised him to come back.

He was also given the position of Xuanda Governor, and it is still difficult for him to resist the Qing army.

This time Azig led the Eight Banners of the Qing Army to wreak havoc in the capital, and Liang Tingdong was not far from death.

Chongzhen only felt a headache, there are so many talents in the world, why is there no one around me?
Only Uncle Jingliao can reassure me a little.

Of course, this was Wu Guojun's appearance, Chongzhen was most proud of promoting Lu Xiangsheng.

He is young and resolute, and he manages the army well. He has shown his extraordinary talents in the past few years and is recognized as one of the courtiers with the most military talents.

Especially after Gao Yingxiang was captured, Chongzhen's favor for Lu Xiangsheng soared.

Previously, he wanted to transfer him to help the capital, except for his disappointment with Zhang Fengyi.

Also strengthen the defense of the northern important towns, and the Qing army must not be allowed to enter and exit at will.

There is also the intention to further investigate Lu Xiangsheng, so that he can preside over the affairs of the Ministry of War in the future.

But when Zhu Youjian calmed down, he felt that Lu Xiangsheng was not suitable to be the Minister of the Ministry of War, and he should be on the spot at the front line, not in the court.

Chongzhen has been thinking about who to use to replace Zhang Fengyi.

Zhang Fengyi is already 87 years old. This time he invited himself to resist the Qing army, and he was seriously ill.

No good news came, and Chongzhen was extremely disappointed with him.

But after thinking about it, he couldn't find a suitable one.

At ten minutes after sunset, Zhu Youjian suddenly thought of someone.

Yang Sichang!
He was a Jinshi in the 38th year of Wanli, and he was the son of Yang He, the former governor of the three sides.

Yang He was rescued by the hammer bandit He Jinzhao, and this matter has always been in Chongzhen's heart.

After all these years, I don't know if Yang He died of old age.

Yang He was arrested for the failure of the peasant uprising and sent to prison.

Yang Sichang, who was serving as a soldier in Shanhaiguan, successively went to Shu to ask to be punished on behalf of his father. Chongzhen exempted Yang He from the death penalty and sent the border guards to serve as troops.

But Yang He was intercepted by the hammer bandits halfway, and the matter was left alone.

But from the point of pardoning Yang He's death crime, Chongzhen had a personal favor to Yang Sichang, and Yang Sichang was very grateful for this, and he was loyal to Chongzhen.

Yang Sichang is knowledgeable and memorized, and has many years of military experience, and he has also worked at the grassroots level.

He has his own set of opinions on military strategy, and he is excellent in writing and eloquence, and is good at expressing. He was very appreciated by Chongzhen when he discussed the strategy of pacification many times and called for statements.

So Yang Sichang was promoted one after another by Chongzhen, and he didn't plan to let Liang Tingdong become the governor of Xuanda so soon, that position was reserved for Yang Sichang.

However, Yang Sichang's stepmother died at home, and he returned to his hometown to observe the funeral according to the custom. He was supposed to be called back by the court after three years.

But Daming has always advertised that he governed the country with filial piety, and the matter of "seizing love" will arouse great criticism.

Even the power minister Zhang Juzheng was attacked because of this incident.

The trolls can be sprayed from any angle, because Daming's trolls are just for spraying.

Chongzhen thought about the consequences, and decided to take Yang Sichang's love. He deeply felt how the talents under his command were withered.

After sorting out some things, Chongzhen slept more peacefully.

By the early morning of the next day, the good mood was gone.

Chongzhen probably didn't know that his temper was getting worse and worse, and his behavior was getting more and more irritable.

The imperial brush, the teacup and so on were thrown to the ground.

Zhang Zongheng, the former governor of Xuanda, and Xu Dingchen, the governor of Shanxi, successively made memorials.

Yan hammer bandit He Jinchao is willing to exchange Jin Wang and Lu Wang for the life of the intruder Gao Yingxiang alone.

In Chongzhen's view, this matter was Chi Guoguo's provocation.

He congratulates that Jinzhao is also worthy of negotiating conditions with me!
On the contrary, some cabinet members said that they could consider it, and first coaxed He Jinzhao to replace the second king.

"I have already appointed the new King Jin and King Lu." Chongzhen looked at the crowd and said, "That postman still wants to deceive me?"

As soon as Zhu Youjian opened his mouth, Wen Tiren immediately closed his mouth.

He hasn't been having a good time these days.

It was not because of Zhang Fengyi's failure to win the battle, the noble groups inside and outside the capital who had suffered heavy losses began to impeach him.

Every time Chongzhen was about to die, he was angry and reckless, but the courtiers hesitated to say anything, and it was up to the emperor to make decisions, and they didn't even mention any advice.

Such a political situation directly stepped on the gas pedal to the demise of Ming Dynasty, and continued this style to the end of Ming Dynasty.

Because the emperor doesn't want to stick to the blame, are the ministers under his hands willing to take the blame?
Even if it is Sun Chengzong, he is determined not to take the blame. After retiring from Liaodong, he can live to enjoy a few years of old age.

In the past, the people in the capital were full of jingles and sent Wen Tiren.

As the Qing army once again ravaged the capital, whether it was the ministers of the court or the civil gentry, the voices against Wen suddenly reached a climax.

Dissatisfied with Wen Tiren, the subconscious is more and more dissatisfied with Chongzhen.

They didn't dare to scold the emperor like He Jinchao's gang of rebels, they could only scold the emperor's dog leg, Wen Tiren.

Proper stand-in literature.

The courtiers blamed Wen Tiren for every bad policy of the court, in order to tarnish his reputation.

Didn't Wen Tiren value his own reputation?

Then I will stigmatize you.

As long as the speech officer reprimands Wen Tiren, and even dares to openly oppose him, he will get the reputation of being strong and loyal.

Wen Tiren had to pinch his nose to admit even the examinees sarcastically sarcasm him on the imperial examination paper.

The most important thing is that a mother who was treated by Wen Tiren as the magistrate traveled thousands of miles and came to the capital with the help of others.

Every day on the street, he waited for Wen Tiren's sedan chair to pass by, and then smashed his sedan chair with bricks and dog feces.

And he yelled loudly, the scolding was extremely ugly.

An old lady insulting the chief minister of the court in the street naturally became a spectacle in the capital.

Chongzhen also knew about this, and specially sent fifty guards to Wen Tirenzeng, and he was unwilling to go to war with a rambunctious old lady.

Wen Tiren even had to send someone to secretly protect the old lady, lest she die, and others would say that he appointed her.

After all, at this time, the mud fell on the crotch, and it was either shit or shit.

But fifty guards are useless, the mop is stained with feces, as if Lu Bu was reborn.

Dozens of tall and mighty men can't do anything to a spoiled old lady.

There is also a minister from Nanjing, who specially brought a coffin to Beijing to participate in Wen Tiren, saying that if he fails, he will become benevolent.

As a result, the "people" of the capital rushed to fill his coffin with poems (chicken soup) encouraging him on his way into the capital, so that the new poems covered the old poems to stick to the coffin.

As a result, he was severely punished by Chongzhen for grandstanding and hitting the court stick in public.

Regarding the words of these officials, Chongzhen, who has always advertised himself as a sage, had to listen to the farts of the officials.

Then a new path was found out, the court battle, and then border guards.

It is said that the onlookers invited various monks and Taoist priests to him to perform exercises to strengthen his body, hoping that he would not be beaten to death.

The emperor didn't want him to die, so he got this good name, and with a little finger, he was sent to Liaodong to guard the border.

As the most important minister of Ming Dynasty, Wen Tiren was treated like this, which can be said to have made him lose face.

Chongzhen didn't care about this, and also vaguely figured out that Wen Tiren somehow meant that he was wronged on his behalf.

Seeing that Wen Tiren was silent, Wang Yingxiong opened his mouth and said:

"Your Majesty, just pretend that this never happened, Gao Yingxiang must die!"

"Hmph." Chongzhen shook off his sleeve angrily: "He Jinzhao wants to negotiate terms, so if you have the ability, come to the capital to talk with me.

Did Xu Dingchen and Zhang Zongheng also vote for the Hammer Bandit and speak up for him? "

Several cabinet elders stopped talking.

The matter was left alone, but it intensified Chongzhen's desire to kill Gao Yingxiang, and to watch the execution in person.

He Jinzhao, he has nothing to be arrogant about.

After killing Gao Yingxiang, we will focus on you!
A small postman is also worthy to run rampant in front of me?
After Chongzhen was furious, he sent someone to urge Zhang Fengyi again, and he didn't even think about changing the commander-in-chief.

After Azig entered Daming this time, there was no resistance at all.

Daming didn't have the slightest power to resist, he just hid in the city and watched them slaughter and plunder.

Huang Taiji reckoned that the time was almost up, so in order to relieve the Ming army's pressure on Azig, he also sent people to support him.

March towards another army towards Shanhaiguan to contain the Ming army.

Those who were ordered to perform the task were Dorgon, Prince of Heshuorui, Duoduo, Prince of Heshuoyu, Yuetuo, Hauge and many Beizi.

Huang Taiji still retained his own strength. After the two red and two blue battle strengths were damaged, the two white flags had become the main force.

The two yellow flags will not act rashly until the last moment.

Dorgon led the right wing to enter from the middle, and Duoduo led the left wing to enter from Jinzhou.

After Chongzhen got the news, he was even more anxious.

Why did these Qing troops come and come back wave after wave?

But he really didn't have the strength to expel these Qing troops, so he could only wait for them to loot enough before leaving the capital.

Just when he was extremely anxious, Ni Yuyi, the censor of the cavalry patrol, impeached Liu Rongsi, the governor's servant of the river, for deceiving others and delaying work.

The reason is that the water transportation is blocked, and Liu Rongsi allocated 50 taels to build a new river for more than [-] miles, so the boat cannot go.

Liu Rongsi forced them to travel along the Xinhe by military law, but the boats traveling along the Xinhe felt that the river was too shallow to travel southward, and there were many resentments.

Was framed for embezzling 20 taels of silver!

He actually dared to covet the money I gave him to repair the water transport, he really had the guts.

Chongzhen was so angry that he directly ordered his arrest and imprisonment.

In fact, Liu Rongsi built water conservancy projects, was diligent in administration and loved the people, and was an upright official, because it was too early to consider the impact of Luoma Lake on the river.

As a result, the newly built Xinhe can only be used normally after a few years, and the people only think of him well.

But it has long been of no avail!

On the way Jingliao Bo Wu Guojun escorted Gao Yingxiang to the capital, He Jinzhao also led more than ten thousand people to the capital.

Wait for the opportunity to rescue Gao Yingxiang, and cut out some spoils from the Qing army by the way.

Lu Xiangsheng also received Chongzhen's instructions, and became more and more concerned about the matter of appeasement.

However, with the arrival of Hong Chengchou and the arrest of Zhang Quanchang, the commander-in-chief who had surrendered to the bandits, news spread.

Many rebels became hesitant again.

Especially Scorpion Block, who had a close relationship with Zhang Quanchang before, after all, everyone will eat in the same pot in the future.

Both of us are not considered "innocent" background, will we not get along well in the future?
Not everyone wants to give up the power in their hands and become a rich man with peace of mind.

The scorpion block heard that Zhang Quanchang was going to be held accountable, would it implicate him?

Especially when Hong Chengchou came, would he just find an excuse to kill him?

These are all uncertain things.

Scorpion Kuai was originally keen to be appeased by the court, but because of a turning point, he began to hesitate about the amnesty.

His confidant Huang Chao repeatedly persuaded him to betray him.

So the contract was inevitably broken, and Scorpion Kuai took his subordinates and ran away directly.

Lu Xiangsheng was caught off guard.

But he also ambushed his ultimate move earlier, and personally sent someone to spread the word.

He asked his soldiers to surrender secretly, killed Xie Zikuang at night, and also captured the person who bewitched Xie Zikuang alive.

After the rebellion of Xie Zikuai subsided, Hong Chengchou began to persuade Lu Xiangsheng that there was no need to keep such rebels for appeasement.

They will only backtrack and eventually make you break your promise in front of the emperor.

Lu Xiangsheng did not follow Hong Chengchou's words, choose a group of people to kill, and deter the rest of the rebels, but came forward to appease Zhang Miaoshou.

The tens of thousands of powerful scorpion blocks were completely disintegrated by him.

Not only that, even Li Zicheng's fellow subordinate, Gao Jie, who was said to be taking over the Chuang Wang banner!

He brought Li Zicheng's daughter-in-law and a large group of people to ask for comfort.

One is because Lu Xiangsheng was able to fight and Gao Yingxiang was caught.

The second is that the two of them passed in private too frequently, and they were afraid of being discovered by Li Zicheng, so a confidant and a bedside person came to seek refuge with a large amount of money and soldiers.

Lu Xiangsheng welcomes such people to join him, even though he looks down on them from the bottom of his heart.

Because such thieves generally have no turning back.

Not only did they mess with the boss's woman, but they also took the boss's money, food and soldiers to defect to the army. This kind of person would not be tolerated if he returned to the ranks of the rebel army.

Therefore, Lu Xiangsheng was sure that Gao Jie would be able to serve the court with all his heart, so he did not ask him to donate any property.

It was just that Gao Jie was sent to attack the rest of the peasant uprising army, in order to prove that he was extremely loyal to Daming.

In particular, it is necessary to look at the heads of many peasant rebels as proof.

The effect is the best.

Gao Jie could only nod his head in agreement, it was entirely his own choice to get to where he is today.

It is impossible to go back now!

The rebel army had no chance of winning against the imperial court.

Even Gao Yingxiang was arrested, how will they fight in the future?
Could it be possible to join the hammer bandit He Jinzhao?

Gao Jie didn't dare to think about this kind of thing, not to mention that he himself couldn't stand the strict military discipline of the Hammer Bandits, he just relied on the friendship between Li Zicheng and He Jinzhao.

Gao Jie felt that He Jinzhao would not reuse him at all, and might even hand him over.

Especially in the matter of him robbing Li Zicheng's wife, he didn't take it seriously.

After Li Zicheng learned that Gao Jie took his beautiful wife Xing Shi and fled to join the army, there was no smile on his face.

Gao Jie is someone he relies on and trusts a lot, and besides the Xing family, he has not taken any other concubines these years.

They did it too!

Li Zicheng clenched his fists in anger. After all, the first daughter-in-law was killed by him because he had an affair with someone.
