Ming politicians

(Thanks to the three real people who voted for the precious monthly tickets, and thanks to jesonshers for the reward, thank you.)

Dorgon withdrew his troops from Dengzhou and Laizhou, Daishan also withdrew from Mongolia, and the Ming army who attacked Montenegro also withdrew to Dalinghe City. Everything came to an end for the time being. Except for Dengzhou and Laizhou who were wailing everywhere, no one I will remember these things that happened, the court did not publicize them, and it is impossible for ordinary people to know about them.

But this incident dealt a great blow to Su Tiancheng. He felt that although he was a time traveler, he was not omnipotent. There are still heroes in this era. Huang Taiji is a great figure, far stronger than Li Zicheng. , Zijinliang, Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai, etc., and Huang Taiji's subordinates have many capable people, and Huang Taiji can put down his body and listen to opinions from all sides patiently. Jin will definitely develop greatly, but what Qu Qingze said is also true. There are many capable people around Huang Taiji, and it is not such a perfect thing. These capable people all have ideas. Once Huang Taiji dies, who will To control these capable people.

Withdrawing troops from Montenegro, many people could not understand. Su Tiancheng could not publicize the reasons for this, and the frontier troops who participated in the battle could not understand, let alone the ministers in the court. For a while, Su Tiancheng was very worried. I always feel that the matter is not over yet, and I am afraid there are still some twists and turns.

the capital. [

Tang Shiji, the second assistant to the cabinet, personally participated in the interrogation. Of course, this interrogation is still very secret up to now. Someone from Houjin defected to the capital, that is, betrayed, and brought a copy of Huang Taiji A handwritten letter, the content of this letter is mainly to request a peace negotiation with Su Tiancheng, and the two sides will not invade each other.Huang Taiji also said in the letter that Su Tiancheng captured Dalinghe City, which really admired him, everyone is a hero, don't hurt each other.

The letter mentioned a very crucial thing, that is, Dorgon's withdrawal from Dengzhou and Laizhou, including Daishan's withdrawal from Mongolia.It was an agreement between Huang Taiji and Su Tiancheng, in exchange for Su Tiancheng's withdrawal from Montenegro. From then on, Huang Taiji would not invade Daming for the time being, and Su Tiancheng also had to guarantee that he would not cross Dalinghe City.

this matter.It is in line with the actual development. It is very strange that after the post-Golden Tartar turned his back on the water, he handed over Huang Taiji's personal letter. The fact is exactly as stated in the letter. Dorgon and Daishan withdrew their troops. , Su Tiancheng also withdrew his troops from Montenegro.The two sides really have a tacit understanding.

The people who turned against the water also said that Ningyuan was heavily guarded, and he did not dare to deliver letters there. In the past, any contact between Huang Taiji and Su Tiancheng was through the capital, or he brought messages to Su Tiancheng's mansion, and passed through Su Tiancheng. Pingyang and others conveyed it, or through merchants traveling in Liaodong.Pass on all the news, but this is the first time to write a letter. Su Tiancheng wrote a letter to Huang Taiji before, but Huang Taiji did not reply.

Ordinarily, such a whistleblower contained too many doubtful things, and it could be said to be a childish, brain-dead whistleblower, but it just caught Tang Shiji's attention.To ask Dali Temple to start an interrogation, the details must be clarified. If Su Tiancheng and Huang Taiji had contact in private, it would be fine.Isn't it going to harm the entire Daming?

Even the officials interrogated in Dali Temple didn't believe this. If Su Tiancheng came into contact with him, he would not send such unreliable people to do things. Therefore, during the interrogation process, Dali Temple didn't care at all.

But all of this, with Tang Shiji's attention, began to become confusing.

After several days of interrogation, Tang Shiji obtained a large amount of materials and went directly to the emperor.

A very secret discussion started between the four of them.

In front of Zhu Youjian, stood Sun Chengzong and Tang Shiji. One of them was the chief assistant of the cabinet, and the other was the second assistant of the cabinet. Standing behind Zhu Youjian was the eunuch Wang Chengen.

This discussion is top secret, no matter what is said, it cannot be leaked.

Tang Shiji took out the interrogation materials, which reflected the situation in detail. After several days of interrogation, all the details were processed, and it seemed to be a perfect material.

There was no expression on Zhu Youjian's face, which was also a noncommittal attitude.

The debate first started between Sun Chengzong and Tang Shiji. This time, Sun Chengzong didn't show any favors. It was a matter of Daming's future, so he would never be polite.

Sun Chengzong first got angry at Tang Shiji.

"My lord Tang, this officer is strange. As the second assistant of the cabinet, this should have been done by Dali Temple. What are you doing in it? If this officer understands, do you just want to get these confessions, my officer There is also a strange place, the confession cannot be formed at one time, this is the basic truth, there will always be repetitions in the interrogation of criminals, the confession materials you provided are complete, even the details It is so clear, including when Hou Jin Huang Taiji wrote the letter and what he said, it is all clear, but this Hou Jin tartar who took refuge in my Daming is just a head of the Ministry of Households, so I don’t know Understood, is it possible that Hou Jin's Huang Taiji, such a virtuous and virtuous corporal, must tell the head of the household department what he did in such a secret way?"

Tang Shiji blushed a little, and began to defend himself.

"My lord Sun, I did participate in the interrogation. As for the circumstances my lord mentioned, I don't know. I don't know why this post-gold tartar who took refuge in my Ming Dynasty knew these things. I just don't know. With a responsible attitude towards the emperor and the court, I participated in this interrogation, and the lower officials did not say that Mr. Su must have done these things."

Sun Chengzong will not stop there. [

"Oh, then I'm going to ask Mr. Tang, what do you mean by bringing these things? What do you mean when you keep suggesting that you want to investigate extensively? You even mentioned that you want to arrest Su Pingyang, yes Trying to figure out what's going on, if you rely on a letter from the Houjin Tatars to go to war like this, then I won't dare to protect myself, maybe one day, Huang Taiji will also write a letter to me , sent people to the capital to rebel, wouldn’t this official also be investigated.”

"Your Excellency said so, and the lower officials do not agree. Now that we have grasped such a situation, we need to investigate it clearly. Otherwise, if such a situation really exists, wouldn't it be dangerous."

A sneer appeared on Sun Chengzong's face, ignoring Zhu Youjian beside him.

"Master Tang, I'm telling you very clearly that if such a situation really happens, I'm afraid you won't have the chance to stand here. Don't talk about you, I'm afraid I'll lose my head. As for the following words, The officer doesn't want to talk about it."

After saying this, Sun Chengzong knelt down to Zhu Youjian, he didn't need to kneel down.

"Your Majesty, I am old and infirm, please resign from the position of Chief Assistant of the Cabinet."

Zhu Youjian's eyes are very complicated, and his heart is also mixed.

He didn't know how to judge such things as Huang Taiji's letter and the rebellious Hou Jin Tartar. Seemingly simple things always brought back some memories when he came to him. Yuan Chonghuan back then was If such a problem arises, of course, Yuan Chonghuan has other things.

But Zhu Youjian knew very well that if Sun Chengzong resigned as the chief assistant of the cabinet and Su Tiancheng was wronged, there might be a huge crisis in Ming Dynasty.

But Sun Chengzong's actions made him feel angry, how could he threaten him like this.

Seeing that Zhu Youjian didn't speak, nor did he intend to ask Sun Chengzong to get up, Tang Shiji spoke again.

"My lord Sun, I think it's wrong for you to act like this. Isn't this blackmailing the emperor?"

Sun Chengzong's face was flushed, and he also felt that he was abrupt. At such an old age, why couldn't he calm down when encountering things, and said softly, but he had to take such drastic measures. Of course, the emperor actually wanted to Discussing such things is inherently absurd. The huge threat of the Houjin Dynasty is still in front of us. If you think about crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, you want to destroy yourself. The Ming Dynasty may not be saved.

At the critical moment, Wang Chengen spoke.

"Your Majesty, this servant thinks it's better to be more cautious. Mr. Sun is also in a hurry."

Even Wang Chengen spoke, and Zhu Youjian could not remain silent.

"Sun Aiqing, get up quickly, I just want to hear your opinions."

Sun Chengzong didn't insist and got up immediately.

Since Wang Chengen opened his mouth, of course he would not stop, otherwise he would know the emperor's temper. As a great eunuch, he is very sensitive and sees problems deeply.

"Master Tang, our family has a few questions, please ask Mr. Tang to clarify."

"Father, please speak."

"This is the first question. Why did Huang Taiji go all the way through the capital to contact Mr. Su? Could it be that Mr. Su wants to rebel and involves his family members? Our family really doesn't understand. The second Question, since Huang Taiji's contact with Mr. Su is always kept secret, the identity of the person who knows about this matter must be unusual, and many confidential events will never be leaked to outsiders, this informer, why? Knowing so clearly, it seems to be a roundworm in Huang Taiji's stomach. The third question is also the most critical one. If the emperor disposes of Mr. Su, it seems that I will not get much benefit from the Ming Dynasty. On the contrary, Huang Taiji is happy. The frontier was shaking, the Jiangning camp was in turmoil, and the frontier army was unstable. Look at Houjin, he got rid of his confidant’s serious troubles, and he can even raise his glass to congratulate him. Please ask Mr. Tang to help solve these problems.”[

Tang Shiji's face turned pale. The question Wang Chengen asked was very critical. There were too many things that didn't make sense. It's not that Tang Shiji didn't know it, but he had no way out after the matter reached this point. Answer the question raised by Wang Chengen , which is obviously impossible. (To be continued.
