Win the Ding 1617

The capital, the Palace of the Emperor. (top) (dot) novel

Except for holding various ceremonies sometimes, the Huangji Hall is rarely used in the court. The emperor of Ming Dynasty handles political affairs, and usually puts them in Fengtian Gate, Qianqing Palace, etc., while the real core of power is in the cabinet and Dongnuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace.The Huangji Hall, like the platform, only holds some ceremonial ceremonial activities.

However, there has been a constant flow of people in Huangji Hall recently, and frequent court meetings are held here again and again.

Those dressed in red and blue robes, embroidered on the chest with the patches of cranes, golden pheasants, unicorns, and xiezhi, with jade-inlaid belts and rhino horn belts tied around their waists. There are different expressions on the face, but in the mouth, it is in strict accordance with the etiquette regulations to pay respects to Chongzhen who sits on the throne.

Emperor Chongzhen watched with a blank face, watching the whole set of strict system of etiquette of shouting long live, worshiping dust and dancing performed by the officials below.This kind of unnutritious thing made him quite bored, and he deeply realized why the emperor Shenzong, the emperor, was unwilling to face this group of ministers. Apart from attacking each other and fighting for power and profit, few people could take it. An effective solution to the problem.

There was sadness in his heart: "This is my servant."

After some etiquette is over, the monarchs and ministers take their places.Generally speaking, Comrade Chongzhen is very numb to the court. He just keeps arguing and arguing every day. He is too lazy to listen or take care of it.

But today, as if he had opened up the five sense organs and seven orifices, he felt extremely keen. Although the officials hadn't spoken yet, he could feel a strong smell of gunpowder.

really.Soon someone fired the first shot: "Your Majesty, I impeached Uncle Ning Yuan, and ordered the governor of Jimen, Tianjin, Shandong, Denglai, etc. to send troops, horses, money and food. He was plundered, his life was ruined, and he insulted my Ming majesty. Your Majesty, please take him to prison and hand him over to you for questioning!"

Chen Xinjia, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard this.Repeated battles and repeated defeats.Abandon the city and lose the land.Lost lives?If this can be convicted, it is estimated that the local officials and the leading generals of the Ming Dynasty would have to die several times each!

Unexpectedly, today the censors seem to have already communicated with each other through voice, this person just said that.Immediately several people came out to support the discussion: "The ministers seconded the proposal. Uncle Ning Yuan, Li Shouhan, has always been arrogant and rude. He thinks he is strong and strong, has plenty of money and food, and has no ruler and father. And he is under his rule. The laws, cultural relics, and legislative system are all different from those of the Ming Dynasty. The wolf's ambition is obvious. uncover."

"My ministers also agree. Li Shouhan is not only ambitious, but also accustomed to plundering people's wealth. Under his rule, he has cleverly set up a name, and there are endless levies and miscellaneous taxes. All merchants who enter and exit goods must be taxed heavily, so that the people are struggling to survive."

Just when the Donglin crowd was attacking Li Shouhan with great interest, there was a cold snort of disdain.All the officials couldn't help but looked in the direction of the sound, and couldn't help being a little annoyed. It turned out that it was Zhu Chunchen, the backstage of the Beijing dandy, the noble leader of the court, and the old dandy Cheng Guogong who was snorting coldly.

The censor who took the lead in attacking the attack had his hair stretched.His eyes were wide open, and his voice was like a bell: "May I ask Duke Cheng what's his opinion?"

After Zhu Chunchen saluted Chongzhen on the throne unhurriedly, he said: "I also agree that Li Shouhan should be killed. However, before killing Li Shouhan, I ask your Majesty to kill Hong Chengchou, Fu Zonglong and others who are the same sinners as Li Shouhan. Then Sending these lords to attack the thieves again, if it is a disgrace to the mission, then kill these lords. Anyway, these lords have great powers and important identities. If you want to come to Guangning, a hundred thousand braves are no more than a feather, and Nanzhong armored soldiers are no more than a speck of dust. The rebels in the Central Plains are all local chickens and dogs, and the rebels in Liaodong are all swarming with ants. These adults flicked their sleeves, talking and laughing, telling the world that there is peace after death, and that the Ming Dynasty is expected to prosper, so why let the above-mentioned traitors misuse the country Harm the people?"

"You..." Several censors didn't expect Zhu Chunchen to say such words, they were immediately smothered, blushing, tongue-tied, unable to express even though they had thousands of words and beautiful articles.I didn't expect Zhu Chunchen to use such a rogue method to deal with those who have always played hooligans!Because the facts are very clear, as Zhu Chunchen said, now Daming's life is in Li Shouhan's hands, but you don't know how to impeach him, what do you want to do?If you want to die, let the emperor give you a ride.

Seeing that several censors were speechless for a while, Zhu Chunchen said mockingly: "Don't think that you are the only ones who can impeach. Those bastards in the Beijing camp also have something to say." Have you ever read the recent report of the Beijing camp. I have relatives who are loyal to His Majesty in the three thousand camp. Victory, Jiannu heard the news and was forced to hide from them. If Shandong officials can join forces to resist the enemy, if any city can hold on for three days, [-] battalions will surely arrive. Unfortunately, until today, there is no city in Shandong that can hold on for two days. So much so that the relatives of Weichen taunted that Shandong officials, who are about to collapse at the touch of a button, are the top brave, those who hear the wind and flee are the middle brave, and those who flee after watching the wind are the low courage. Officials are incompetent, they are dragged thin by the fat ones, and dragged to death by the thin ones."

Zhu Chunchen's words changed the expressions of Chongzhen and all the ministers. In fact, everyone knew a lot of things, but they always felt that it was inconvenient to reveal them. Now Zhu Chunchen insisted on piercing the window paper, so that everyone could The light and the dark things were all exposed, and everyone felt very embarrassed for a while.

Of course, the most embarrassing thing was the gang of censors who impeached Li Shouhan just now, but now that they have reached this point, they can only be stubborn to the end.

"Your Majesty, I learned from the family letter of the Three Thousand Battalion that the soldiers under Uncle Ningyuan marched day and night to ensure the safety of Jinan. For several days and nights, he never got off his horse and left the saddle, and ran for hundreds of miles straight to Jinan. If there were no soldiers under Uncle Ning Yuan's command and the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp to fight so bravely for the king's affairs, I'm afraid that Jinan would be reduced to hell again!"

"Your Majesty, don't listen to Cheng Guogong's one-sided words. Most of the Beijing camps are his relatives and old friends. These people have benefited from following Li Shouhan. Of course, they speak to Li Shouhan. Shandong officials are of course responsible for the ineffective defense of the city, but the root cause is Li Shouhan's move. Improper, so that Abatai crossed Shandong, as if entering a land without people."

This was no less than poking a hornet's nest, and there was a buzz of discussion in Xungui's queue.

"Uncle Ning Yuan's actions are not in line with other people's actions? Did Wang Gongbi have a strategy for defending Jinan? Countermeasures?!"

"The Liao thieves entered the bandits three times before, which one was not like entering a land without people? Should the other leading generals be punished?"

"Back then, Yuan thief Chonghuan bewitched Sheng Cong and talked about the five-year pacification of Liao Dynasty. Whoever recommended Yuan thief was punished in the slightest? Zuo Kunshan plundered counties, slaughtered good people, and saw the thieves run away. Respect yourself. Recommend this person Yes, have you ever been punished?"

"The Beijing camp has benefited? The biggest benefit is that the emperor has obtained an elite army capable of defeating the Liao bandits!"

These discussions undoubtedly strengthened Zhu Chunchen's momentum and represented the opinions of the entire honorable group.They have been suppressed and bullied by the civil society group for many years, and they have long been full of resentment.Now there is such an opportunity.How not to come out and smash black bricks and punch cheaply?After listening to these.Zhu Chunchen had a smug smile on his face, and just as he was about to speak, someone suddenly jumped up and cursed: "Zhuzi speaks nonsense!"

Everyone took a closer look.It was Li Guozhen, Uncle Xiangcheng who was speaking. Seeing that Uncle Xiangcheng's beard trembled wildly and panted like a cow, and he showed his arms and rolled up his sleeves as if he was about to beat someone, everyone hurriedly stopped him. The court was not turned into a boxing ring.Seeing that he couldn't beat people directly, Uncle Xiangcheng angrily said to the censor who took the lead: "When the court is over, the old man will kill you as much as possible." Do not go to the Ming Dynasty version?)

After finishing speaking, he said to Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, I think you also know that among the bastards in Shenji Camp and Sanqian Camp, how can there be any family who lacks money? All of them have eyes above the top and are rebellious. The tyrants in the capital Jia Duo is as hairy as a cow, who do you see can make them submissive? All of them pretend to be knight-errants, drinking alcohol and drinking pheasants every day. For an actor and prostitute, these bastards can beat people to death. The old man is in charge of the Beijing camp. Speaking of these things, I can really piss off the old man. But since they followed Uncle Ning Yuan to Shandong, these bastards are all promising. The old minister just heard that this group of monkey cubs can break tens of thousands of monkeys together with Uncle Ning Yuan's subordinates. The bandits were still skeptical. But then there was news of the victory of the powerful army under the defeated slave chief Abate, claiming to have beheaded more than [-] ranks and seized countless armors, weapons and horses. At first, the old officials didn’t believe it! So the old officials sent powerful confidants The people of Shandong went to see for themselves what kind of virtues these bastards in Shandong have achieved. The results were incredible. The bastards of the Shenji Battalion could walk thirty steps without breaking up, and the boys of the Three Thousand Battalion rode horses and lined up like a wall. , that look, even Cheng Zuye's three major battalions and Qi Shaobao's Zhejiang soldiers are no more than that. The people I sent saw this situation and told me that if Jiannu dared to fight these bastards, beheading three hundred would be cheap If you miss them, count them as fast.”

After finishing speaking, Uncle Xiangcheng said to the censors: "I would like to ask my lords, which one of you can guarantee with me that in such a short period of time, these monkey cubs from Shenji Camp and Sanqian Battalion will be trained like this?" Elite, let the emperor have an elite army in his hands. If any of you can guarantee to do it, how much food do you want, the old man will go bankrupt and sell the pot and sell iron? You slandered loyal ministers and good generals, and framed the soldiers of the Beijing camp."

For a while, the censor had nothing to say, but he couldn't just admit defeat, so he had to bluff and say: "Who knows whether the head of the beheaded army was given by Uncle Ning Yuan, anyway, Uncle Ning Yuan doesn't care about these hundreds of Jiannu Head."

But soon, the person who said this knew one thing, some things, he dare not say nonsense.

Before he understood what was going on, he felt that his body was slightly vacated, and then a huge fist flew towards his face, knocking him a foot away with just one blow.What's even more ingenious is that when he landed on the ground, he kicked five feet at the same time.But fortunately, the quasi-head with three feet is basically close to the footwork level of the national football team, and he missed the kick.But the remaining two acupoints kicked him firmly, making him scream like a beaten wild dog.

Although it shows that it is not uncommon for the court ministers to fight in the court hall, even killing people, but after all, it is really embarrassing in front of the emperor.However, perhaps because of the creation of a democratic atmosphere in the cabinet and the imperial court, and the creation of a coordinated government structure of a small government and a large society, like other Minzhu regimes that we are familiar with, when there is a disagreement during the discussion, there will be a dispute between each other. It is also normal to have a heated debate from the body to the soul.Chongzhen on the throne.He actually looked at all this with a normal expression, like a spectator watching a boxing match, and there was even a hint of schadenfreude at the corner of his mouth.

"My son had a bloody battle with Jiannu, and he was wounded in many places, but he devoted himself to serving the country, wrapping up his wounds and fighting again. What are you?!"

"That's right! Hit! Hit this dog crow hard!"

From time to time, there were angry shouts, fists and kicks among the crowd beating the censor.

In the next minute, the envoy fully understood what ring kicking and selling teammates are.Needless to say, kicking in the circle, seeing the emperor's expression, the other imperial envoys immediately looked at their eyes, nose, mouth, mouth and heart.Watch this wonderful circle kick with a serious face.It's like beating just a wild dog, it's really cold in the world.

After kicking around happily, the group of nobles who beat people were crying bitterly.An old man knelt down and cried bitterly towards Chongzhen who was on the throne: "Your Majesty! You have to be the master of the old minister. The old minister's useless son was cultivated by the emperor and sent to Ning Yuanbo's command. The former fan fought bloody battles with the Jiannu elite. There were four arrow wounds all over his body. Two knife wounds, one burn wound, and one of the arrows pierced through the armor. Fortunately, he only shot through the shoulder and did not hurt the internal organs. But he was grateful for His Majesty's kindness, broke the shaft of the arrow, wrapped the wound and fought again. One person captured the heads of three Jian slaves, and was unable to move for a few days when he came down to the battlefield. My son did not ask for high officials and generous salary for His Majesty, but only for His Majesty's worries, for the imperial court, and for the Ming dynasty. In the end, he was falsely accused by traitors The old minister wants to live too, the old minister begs His Majesty to agree, the old minister will kill this beast for my Ming court, and the old minister will pay for his life at worst!"

Before Chongzhen could smooth things over, another person said: "Your Majesty, this person has always been hostile to the soldiers of the Beijing Camp, and has personal grievances with the soldiers of the Beijing Camp. I heard that before he left the army in the Beijing Camp, he relied on the power of the censor to bully men and women in the market. In the end, a few Beijing camp officials Zuo Ren chivalrously stepped forward to stop him, and this beast never succeeded. There must be resentment in his heart, so he used the public weapon for private use to provoke and retaliate in front of His Majesty."

All the people present, from the cabinet ministers to the six ministries and nine ministers Han Zhan Kedao, had a lot of expressions after hearing this.Silently translated these words into standard human words: Our sons and this guy used to fight for the top card, and this guy has a grudge because of it.Today's incident was clearly caused by this guy who came here to take revenge by relying on his authority as a censor!

Seeing that it would be shameless to ignore it any longer, Chongzhen said: "Don't be angry, Duke Cheng and Uncle Xiangcheng, you two are my ministers, and the pillars of the country are highly respected. How can you be as knowledgeable as these people? Come on, Get rid of this loyal and traitorous person who can't distinguish between good and bad. Ask Beizhen Fusi Haosheng to find out what his purpose is, whether he has colluded with the Liaodong rebels, or was entrusted by an adulterer to accept bribes and casually frame him here. My loyal minister and good general?"

After being beaten half to death, Yu Shi, who was beaten half to death with more breath and less breath, was carried out like a dead dog by seven or eight generals. The commander of Jin Yiwei, Xu Xianchun, quietly confessed to a doctor who followed closely from the official department: "The emperor's Do you understand what it means? Go back and tell your officials, you all know what to do, so I don’t need to say more?”

"There are also those from Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice. You must ask this guy for accepting bribes from traitors, and casually falsely frame Uncle Ning Yuan and the loyal and brave soldiers of the Beijing camp. This is also to protect the reputation of your lords."

"My lord's kindness, we all appreciate it. Also, please end this person early, and don't make any more troubles!"

After dealing with the censor, Chongzhen said to Cheng Guogong and Xiangcheng Bo: "Although I dare not call Ming Lord, but the bloody battle in the Beijing camp has worked hard, I know it in my heart, and anyone who dares to speak rashly will have no father. But you two are not right, the court is a place for discussion, how can you fight at will, if you don’t make an example, let’s forget it this time.”

Cheng Guogong and Xiangcheng Bo hurriedly pleaded guilty, and all the ministers also pleaded guilty one after another. Chongzhen waved his hand and said: "Okay, there is no need to be like this. These are trivial matters. The urgent task now is how to assist Li Aiqing to solve Abate quickly. Do you have a good strategy for this matter?"

These adults and gentlemen have always been quick-witted and brave in party struggles for the sake of their wives, wealth, and children. speechless.The court hall suddenly changed from the pig slaughterhouse just now to an ancient tomb in the deep mountains.

Seeing that no one spoke, Chongzhen said to himself: "I have made up my mind to support Li Aiqing with all my strength. Since Shandong officials are afraid of the enemy but not me, what use do I want them to be? Those who avoid the war will be killed, and those who communicate with the enemy will be killed. Regardless of whether you have any objections, I will issue this edict to all cities in Shandong, Denglai, and Liaodong! In addition, if Shandong officials cannot fight the enemy desperately, I will send their entire families Returning to the west, all the family property will be used as military pay for the Beijing camp, Ning Yuanbo's subordinates, and Shandong officers and soldiers!"

This time, Li Shouhan, who was far away in Shandong and was troubled by traveling around, unintentionally became the deadly enemy in the eyes of civil servants and Donglin gentlemen.

This decree of Emperor Chongzhen completely cut off the possibility of reconciliation or even collusion between him and the civil official group. (To be continued..)
