ps: Happy Dragon Boat Festival everyone!

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there has been no peace, no land, no compensation!How can such a thing as a peace negotiation be accepted by the government and the opposition?I really can't get over my face!As for how much loss Lizi will bring, only the adults and gentlemen know for themselves.The so-called big river has water and the small river is full, and the big river has no water and the small river is dry.

But these people are so relentless for their own self-interest, don't they know that what I have done is just to follow the example of Gou Jian, the king of Yue, who tried his best and tried his best?

It should be noted that although my Ming Dynasty did not cede land, make peace with relatives or pay compensation, since Chengzu, there has been a habit of rewarding the surrounding vassal states with land, property, money and food.

Then Li Chenggui, who came to the throne after the mutiny, was not justified in the first place.However, in order to prove that his name was justified and that his destiny belonged to him, Emperor Chengzu moved Tieling Guard to the north, rewarded North Korea with the land that was originally my Ming Dynasty, and ordered Li Chenggui to know the state affairs of North Korea.Turned the Yalu River into the border between Ming Dynasty and North Korea, a vassal state.

The Ming court was so lenient to Li Chenggui, who usurped the throne, and Chengzu was even more fond of Duoyan Sanwei, who fought the world with him and contributed a lot to the battle of Jingnan to seize the throne from his nephew.Not only to give official positions, but also to allocate a large area of ​​land to Duoyan Sanwei.The Great Ning Guard was abolished, King Ning, who had originally enshrined the country here, was moved to Jiangxi for resettlement, and a large area of ​​land outside the side wall was rewarded to this group of Mongols.

Later, after Zhu Di died, a group of emperors who had been educated by literati came up, and they came from far away from Huaide, and they asked for anything from the various Mongolian tribes on the border.

Among the emperors of all dynasties, only Ming Wuzong, who was scolded by all literati and historical records, had the style of ancestors, and led troops to Yingxian County, Shanxi to fight a battle with the little Mongolian prince. Although according to historical records, he was only beheaded A few extremely poor heads were lost.But the emperor himself cut off one!Moreover, after such a battle without much loss, the little prince's troops dared not commit internal crimes for several years, and I don't know why!

But in the Jiajing year, it will be different!

In March of the second year of Jiajing, Yisi, the captives made a big move.[-] cavalry invaded Datong.

In October of the seventh year of Jiajing, Xin Chou took [-] cavalry captives, and was sent to Xuanfu by Dabaiyang border bandits.

In the first month of Yiwei in the 20th year of Jiajing, [-] cavalry were captured, and they were captured from Datong Pingping and entered Jingping to attack Lianhuayu... In August Jiazi, I answered [-] to [-] cavalry, and invaded Shiling Pass, Taiyuan, Pingding, Shouyang, and Meng in Shanxi. County, Zhending, Bauhinia, Jingxing.

In the 24th year of Jiajing, the first month of the first month was ugly, and tens of thousands of horses were captured.Kou Datong was avant-garde, and in September Bingxu, tens of thousands of cavalry offended the middle road of Datong.

On the fourth day of the first lunar month in the 31st year of Jiajing, I first paid [-] horses as tribute and traded [-] horses. At night, I led a crowd to recapture the traded horses, invaded Datong, and plundered people, animals and property... On the ninth day of February.Once again invaded Datong, plundered Dayong and the fortresses.

In August of the 33rd year of Jiajing, Yihai.More than [-] horsemen were captured, and then divided into plundering Datong Pingluwei and other places... In September of the first year of Longqing, Yimao, I answered the northern captives, and tens of thousands of riders entered Datong Jingping, Piantouguan, Laoyingbao, and Donkey Skin Cellar in Shanxi everywhere.

Until Altan Khan was conferred the title of King of Shunyi by the Ming Dynasty and built Guihua City.The Ming Dynasty rewarded the Hetao area to the Mongols, and since then the defense line or the actual control line has been extended to the Great Wall.

At the same time, tribute trade and border mutual market were carried out.This form has given the Mongols a lot of benefits.

My Daming is indeed a typical example of the emperor guarding the gate of the country without cede land, pay compensation, or make peace!

At most, my Ming Dynasty rewarded Al Da Khan with [-] silver coins every year, how could it compare to the old coins of the Song Dynasty? !

"I'm just following the example of my ancestors and making room with the Tartars for a while. I can also free up my hands to deal with the Central Plains thieves. What do you know about a group of rotten scholars?!" Chongzhen looked back from afar, under the lights of the desks in the palace, the shadows could still be seen. I can see several baskets of inscriptions sent by the Supervisor of Rituals, and it is obvious that they are all written against the peace talks and threatened to kill traitors and traitors.

Chongzhen didn't even bother to look at this kind of writing that was not in charge of the family and didn't know the price of firewood, rice, oil and salt. It's a pity that those high-quality papers were filled with impassioned but empty words, and even went to the toilet to think he was black.

I'm just seeking truth from facts, but I see you are so sloppy!Chongzhen cursed in his heart.Liaodong has been separated from the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty since the emperor's ancestor, so that the Ming court continued to lose troops and generals, and a lot of money and food were continuously filled into this bottomless pit!I didn't pay tribute to become a minister, but simply recognized Huang Taiji's jurisdiction over Liaodong, gave him a title, and then started border market trade with him.He neither gave him a reward in the nature of old coins, nor lost anything.

But you guys are making noise there, what do you say about losing power and humiliating the country, but do you have the ability to move mountains and fill seas and change Feng Shui dragon veins?Literacy can command thousands of troops!It is true that there is a way to completely exterminate the Tartars without cede land or pay compensation, but if you really do that, you will have to send me a bunch of complaint letters.

If they really have this thought, they will all go to Li Weiru to take the initiative to pay the government and gentry together, which will save worry.

(The unkind author is here again. Some time ago, when the South China Sea was undergoing uncanny workmanship of nature, when Sister Hua accused the senior management of the Bald Eagle’s family of destroying the South China Sea’s feng shui, the author was very excited to share this matter with someone .Hoping to save him from the ranks of quasi-public knowledge. As a result, the guy replied that his house was occupied by others, and then expanded the earthquake shed next to him! So, the author decisively removed him from the Deleted among friends. It turns out that the Donglin Party and the current public knowledge are both a patriarch and have the same bloodline. However, the difference is that the current public knowledge still has the genes of the beautiful father.)

"Your Majesty, there is a lot of talk among the nobles of the court and Chinese military. Some people threaten to destroy their families and fight the Liao thieves to the end!"

At some point, Chen Xinjia, who was ordered to come to the prelude to the king, appeared behind Chongzhen with a pale complexion.The verbal attacks in the past few days have caused him great mental stress and physical and mental exhaustion. His originally well-maintained description has become haggard, and he looks more than ten years old.

"Destroying the family to relieve the difficulties?" Chongzhen sneered, "Chen Aiqing, don't listen to their nonsense, let alone destroying the family, letting them work together as a errand and pay for food is like digging their ancestral graves. A mere act of peace negotiation is just to make them lose Some money and bribes. Just pretend like this, if you really let them destroy the house, they will come to destroy me."

"I heard that there are already people in the court who are in liaison, saying that the ministers should donate some money to rectify the Beijing camp to train the new army. The news of the minister is blocked. But I also heard a little bit that hundreds of thousands of silver dollars have been raised. Some of them are palace officials. Donated by the big and small fathers-in-law!"

"In addition, a few nobles who have children serving in the Shenji Camp and the Three Thousand Battalion have already said that if the court negotiates a peace, they would rather go to Liaodong with their sons to fight Huang Taiji to the end!"

Threat! This is a naked threat!Ministers, nobles, eunuchs, plus Ning Yuan Bo Li Shouhan who is in Tianjin at this time, these forces are unprecedentedly twisted into one strand to deal with the protests and actions!

"At present, the thieves are still alive, and the Central Plains are rotten. North of the Yangtze River. Locusts and droughts are plagued everywhere, hungry people gather everywhere, and thieves and local bandits are everywhere. All these, as the central task, you know very well. Right now, the crowd is raging. If there is a peace negotiation, there will be changes in the DPRK and China, but if there is no peace negotiation with the eastern barbarians. The barbarians are strong, and Hong Chengchou's tens of thousands of horses may not be able to continue. Internal and external difficulties, what can we do!"

Chen Xinjia knew that the emperor came to him today to discuss peace, so he quickly kowtowed and said: "As a soldier, I can't fight for your Majesty's peace, and I really deserve death. Temporarily negotiate with the captives. Seek peace for a while, so that the court will fully deal with the crisis in the Central Plains and wipe out the intruders. There is no other good plan. Ma Shaoyu has met with Lao Han to discuss peace talks. It is said that the progress is quite smooth, and Lao Han himself also wants to surrender as soon as possible The imperial court. The minister is willing to guarantee with his wealth and life that Ma Shaoyu will be able to defeat the imperial court this time and fulfill his mission. I hope that the emperor will wait in peace and don't need to worry."

"What I'm worried about is that the peace talks haven't come to fruition, and the situation is out of control." Seeing that Chen Xinjia couldn't understand his intentions for a while, Chongzhen couldn't help feeling a little angry, and raised his voice a little.

"On the Henan side, the officials have followed the order and urged Zuo Liangyu and other military units to rush to aid the suppression. Be sure to encircle and wipe out Cao Cao in the city of Kaifeng! It is said that these two thieves are busy clearing up the treasures in the city of Kaifeng, and they don't want to occupy Kaifeng for a long time. After the army learned that the bandits had fled back to the east and west of Henan, they were all joyful and eager to fight. As for the eastern captives, the minister was worried that the rewards that Lao Han expected were too extravagant. In order to inspire his desire for transformation, we should also consider the overall situation of our country at present, so we might as well compromise a little bit. The minister also told him that the emperor meant that as long as the people of the land did not lose too much, he could do things cheaply in Liaodong; at present, Mrs. Hong This person is wholeheartedly obedient, and I think there will be good news about peace talks in the near future, and once there is an agreement, I will quickly report it to my ministers to explain the holy thoughts."

Chen Xinjia has probably been scolded for being confused these days, but he hasn't noticed that Chongzhen's attitude has changed until now.No more negotiations!

Others are easy to say, I just ignore it, at most let them call me a fool every day.But there is one person you can't ignore even if you want to, and that is Uncle Ning Yuan Li Shouhan.He has soldiers and money, so he fights whenever he wants, and makes peace when he wants to. The base is thousands of miles away from the capital, and the court itself depends on him to continue its life.Now he is the one who is most active in shouting and beating, this is my serious problem!

"Chen Qing, I told you clearly when you proposed to negotiate peace with the slave chiefs. I want to be the master of Ming Dynasty Zhongxing, not a cowardly king of the Song Dynasty. If the captives demand too much, I will never agree. As long as The people in the land have not lost much, so you might as well make a quick decision and submit it to me for a ruling, and then take an oath and abide by it together, so that our subjects outside the customs can temporarily relieve the suffering of the military. Ling Qing and Ma Shaoyu deeply understand my difficulties and will settle the matter. Don't overdo it. Do you remember?"

Hearing Chongzhen's words, the tone was wrong, Chen Xinjia couldn't help but tremble, it's over!The emperor is afraid that he will find a scapegoat to take this huge blame!

Chen Xinjia kept kowtowing and said, "Yes, yes. Your majesty is wise!"

"I also told you that these matters should be kept extremely confidential. If there is a secret report coming to Beijing, you must not reveal a word." Chongzhen's tone became colder and colder, so cold that Chen Xinjia felt like he was in the cold winter in this early spring. middle.

"I have repeatedly told you that every time I give Qing a handkerchief, I will pay Bingding after reading it. You must not be negligent! However, there are rumors abounding in the capital, Qing, how should I deal with myself? How should I let me deal with myself? How can I face the leisurely mouths of the world's subjects?"

This point has been said, and Chen Xinjia can't understand it anymore. Then he was born in a normal way, and he has climbed the officialdom for a long time to the position of Minister of the Ministry of War and the position of cabinet boss. Isn't it a waste of time? "I am a blunt person, and I am grateful for the kindness of knowing you. I only hope that the emperor will become the king of ZTE. Therefore, all the emperor's secret decrees should be burned as soon as they are read. Not even a single word will be left in the world. However, within the capital How did the news get leaked, but it's beyond my comprehension. Could it be that the Liao bandits got wind of it?"

According to Chongzhen's original intention, Chen Xinjia stood up and took up this matter. He, the emperor, could just step down with dignity, so he had to put Chen Xinjia in prison and dismiss him from office.Avoid this limelight for now, and then, like Sun Chuanting, find a chance to use it again. (This trick is the same as what the headmaster said back then. If two people are in the same boat, if there is a storm, they will drown. It is better to go down one person first. If you save one, you will also save the other. But, Chen Xinjia is not Zhang Hanqing.)

But this guy is so ignorant!

"Sir, go out. If there is news about the military situation in various places, I will know it immediately!"

The next day, Chongzhen announced in the court hall that under the guise of the holy will, Chen Xinjia ordered his subordinates to leave the pass to negotiate peace with the slave chieftain Hongtai. I didn't know anything about it.Order Jin Yiwei to capture Chen Xinjia on the spot and put him in prison.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"Your Majesty's move is like cutting off Wei Yan back then!"

I saw Chen Xinjia, who advocated and presided over the peace talks, be imprisoned.The peace negotiation with the Liao thieves must have been aborted, above the court.The civil servants and nobles praised the emperor's wise, wise, decisive and resolute actions in unison.

Before the court was over, the impeachment texts given by various departments flew to the court hall in flakes.

Fang Shiliang, Ma Jiazhi and others took the lead to impeach him. "Since Xinjia took office, although he has small talents and knows side affairs, he can't be honest. He has a lot of debts, and he is deeply attached to the nobles for help. Externally, he can't be humiliated in Liaodong. Internally, there are thieves. Luoyang, Xiangyang, and Kaifeng all fell into the vassal clan, and King Fu died. King Xiang died for his country, and King Zhou lost his country. This is all the fault of a new leader! However, it is not as good as the slaves who secretly negotiated peace with thieves."

With such intensive artillery fire, it would be difficult for the emperor to let him go.However, what the officials said about making friends with middle officials is not false.Chen Xinjia had a deep friendship with Wang Dehua, the eunuch who took the palm seal from the Supervisor of Rituals, and there were also many generals in military towns outside who had contacts with him in private.Therefore, when Chen Xinjia received a decree from Emperor Chongzhen in the imperial prison, ordering him to understand the replay according to the impeachment text given to us, he was confident.

"Shangyi advocates harmony, and you are lucky not to talk too much."

Although his words were tough, he still did a lot of work to survive in private.

He ordered his cronies and confidants to bring a lot of money to run under the doors of the big shots in the cabinet, and at the same time ordered people to plead with Wang Dehua and other eunuchs.During the incident, Liao Guolin, Yang Zhiqi and others cleared the way for him in front of Xu Shiqi, the servant of the Ministry of punishment. University scholars Zhou Yanru and Chen Yan also tried to rescue him in front of Emperor Chongzhen. "The emperor said: "Let's not talk about him, killing and humiliating my relatives, Qiqi, is no worse than Bocheng?" dead, this crime is not more serious than the enemy soldiers coming down to the city?!) then abandoned Xinjia in the city.

Chen Xinjia's head fell on Caishikou, and the political turmoil caused by the peace talks seemed to calm down.The officials sent their troops back home, those who should listen to the music listen to the music, and those who should hug the young man should hug the young man.He completely forgot the impassioned speech performance he made in front of the crowd and on the badge to the emperor a few days ago.

It's okay for others to forget, but Chongzhen couldn't help thinking about the tens of thousands of people in Liaodong himself.

"Big Companion, what's the situation in Liaodong Army?" He helplessly asked Wang Dehua, the chief eunuch on duty.

Although Wang Dehua was Chongzhen's confidant domestic slave, handling government affairs was not his strong point. It took him a long time to get the latest news from a few young eunuchs and report to Chongzhen.

This scene made Chongzhen feel melancholy again.Chen Xinjia, who had just been beheaded, was recommended by Yang Sichang.The talents, ideas, and ways of doing things of these two people are very similar.During his time in the Ministry of War, there were frequent exchanges of military letters, Xin Jia could immediately answer the questions, and when the prelude was correct, he could not answer the questions to describe his grasp of the military situation in various places.

"Alas! It's a pity that he doesn't know the truth that if a minister doesn't keep secrets, he will die." He doesn't know how to keep secrets, and he doesn't know that the emperor's scapegoat must have a minister who will recite it for him without hesitation. This is the truth that Chongzhen must kill. The reason for dropping him.

However, the military situation everywhere made Chongzhen even more irritable.

"My lord, the guarding eunuchs in Liudu and the weaving eunuchs in Suzhou and Hangzhou have played a secret concert. The two towns of Nanyue Army under Uncle Ning Yuan's command, about [-] to [-] elite soldiers, have been divided into several routes and entered Jiangxi, Zhejiang, and Hunan from Fujian and Guangdong. , and now they are going northward with light soldiers. There seems to be a large group of people following behind. All the states and counties are in great fear, lest the army will disturb the people."

"What about Ning Yuan? Didn't Wu Sangui want to take back Jinzhou? Didn't Uncle Ning Yuan send two brigades of troops as reinforcements?"

"My lord, the general of Ningyuan has an army report. It is said that the slave chieftain Mergen, on behalf of Qing Dorgon, led his slaves to attack frantically. His troops and horses repeatedly competed with Dorgon's troops for the road from Songshan Fort to Jinzhou. The loss has been heavy, and we are now joining forces with the reinforcements of the Southern Guangdong Army, hoping to defeat the enemy in front of us in one fell swoop!"

"Hmph! They're all a bunch of damned things! You've achieved your goal, and you'll deal with me there! I dare say that Wu Sangui's troops are sleeping in Songshan Castle!" (To be continued...)
