Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 130 As long as His Majesty and this official are still there, Jiangshan Sheji will be there (fourth more)

There is no need to elaborate on how the people in the inner court spent an afternoon with Zhu Youjian.

How did the author know how debauched Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youjian was in his harem.

I only know that when it is half past unitary hour and dusk falls.

Zhu Youjian woke up in Kunning Palace disheveled.

Zhu Youjian sniffed the freshly inserted red plums in the vase, and ordered to Empress Zhou:

"Now Zuo Liangyu's soldiers are suppressing the border, and the slaves and thieves are followed by the oriole. Officials in the north spend New Year’s Eve together, you are the mother of a country, and you can meet hundreds of officials at the same time with me, and the emperor and empress are in harmony, which is also a sign that the current situation of the court is not bad, and it also helps to calm people’s hearts.”

As Zhu Youjian said, he ordered people to dress Zhouhou according to the quality, and he could no longer be as frugal as he is now.

Empress Zhou naturally obeyed her orders happily. The hairpin rings were different from the black temples, and the wreaths were clasped between the peepers. She still had red makeup, which added to her mature and charming demeanor. With the phoenix crown, Xiapei and bead curtains, she also supported her. Mothers who go abroad should not be desecrated.

Zhu Youjian was also dressed in black gown, and came to the Hall of Martial Arts with Queen Zhou in a sedan chair.

At this time, outside the Hall of Martial Heroes, thousands of tables were placed around the short tables of the Hall of Martial Heroes, and everyone from cabinet ministers to ordinary guards officers and soldiers had gathered here.

The lanterns are endless, and there are endless officials coming and going. The tortoiseshell feast is opened, the black yarn is like a cloud, and the red robes and boa robes are shuttled among them.

The guards officers and soldiers from the north did not expect that His Majesty really kept his word, and asked them to spend New Year's Eve with His Majesty and have a New Year's Eve dinner with a group of high-ranking officials.

Zhang Tongchang, who is now an officer of the Guards Army, came after Zhang Juzheng. On New Year's Eve, he did not return to Huguang Jiangling, but came to the Forbidden City in Nanjing with his comrades-in-arms Xie Qian from Shandong and Wang Li from Beizhili.

Just like other officers and soldiers of the Northern Guards who came to the Forbidden City together, the three of them were full of excitement at this time.

When Zhu Youjian and Empress Zhou appeared on the high steps outside the palace and waved to the officials, the people below even shouted long live.

"Today is New Year's Eve!"

"Most of the people present here are homeless people like me. In this case, let us welcome the first day of Chongzhen's 18th year together in Jinling City, on this New Year's Eve!"

After Zhu Youjian finished speaking, he lifted the aluminum cup into the air: "Toast!"

Empress Zhou also held the aluminum wine glass together, smiling without showing her teeth, looking gracefully at the countless officials in front of her.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The officers and soldiers below all raised their gold and silver cups and drank them all in one gulp.

"Just sit down," Zhu Youjian said, and then led Queen Zhou to sit on the high platform outside the hall, and the officials and guards officers and soldiers below also sat down.

Zhang Tongchang, Zhang Huangyan, Xie Qian and others also sat down. They were only in their twenties at this time, and they all looked at Queen Zhou curiously, wanting to see the sky.

But because the lights are dim and you can only look up, you can't see clearly. You just feel elegant, dignified and elegant.

At this time, Zhu Youjian continued to recall the past with several important officials from the north who were from the north. At the same time, he also lamented the difficulty of Taizu's business and the hard work of his brother Zhu Youxiao in maintaining the community.

This New Year's Eve convened northern officials and Guards officers and soldiers to spend the New Year's Eve together. Zhu Youjian's purpose was to continue to draw closer to these people, so as to form their absolute loyalty to himself, the king, and become a planner for resisting attempts to disrupt the court. The mainstay of Donglin Party officials who set off party disputes.

Zhu Youjian is good at exaggerating and citing extensively. He compares himself with the northern officers and soldiers as homeless people, and uses the concept of family and country to emphasize the recovery and revitalization of the northern heart countless times. It is important to resist foreign captives and realize the unification of the world.

"Whether Zuo Liangyu rebels or not, next year will Li Zicheng and Dorgon directly attack our Ming Dynasty? Everyone, we must not be chaotic! The decline of any dynasty begins with internal divisions. I know that today's There are still factions in Ming Dynasty. There are divisions between north and south, merchants and landlords, and gentry and commoners. But no matter how we divide, we are all members of Ming! We all have the responsibility to defend our homeland and recover the northern capital. !"

After Zhu Youjian finished speaking, he raised his wine glass again: "Defend the homeland and recover the northern capital!"

Officials from the northern department and officers and soldiers of the Guards shouted, and even officials from the south such as Shi Kefa followed suit.

Only Gao Hongtu, Zhang Shenyan, Liang Yungou and others didn't react, and only shouted a few words embarrassingly after a while.

Zhu Youjian and Wang Chengen saw all this in their eyes.

Zhu Youjian even came up to Gao Hongtu in person and asked Wang Chengen to pour wine for Gao Hongtu: "Gao Aiqing, I know you are a member of the Donglin Party, but I still say the same thing. I don't hate the Donglin Party. Those who can be used, whether Donglin or Eunuch Party, who can contribute to the great cause of the revival of Ming Dynasty are all my talents! Just like you, an old man with a clean sleeve, loyal and honest, and good at civil affairs, I cannot do without you! !"

As he said that, Zhu Youjian patted Gao Hongtu himself: "Bring the wine, I want to toast with Mr. Gao Ge personally!"

Gao Hongtu was already a little uneasy because Zhang Shenyan forcibly tied Zuo Liangyu to the rope, but seeing that His Majesty did not share a drink with others, but treated him so courteously alone, he was even more ashamed and frightened.

Zhu Youjian then walked up to Zhang Shenyan and Lu Zhenfei, and also expressed great courtesy and respect.

Although Zhang Shenyan was puzzled in every possible way why His Majesty suddenly treated them, the cabinet ministers of the Donglin Faction, so much, he still pretended to be panicked on the surface, not even daring to say anything.

"Your Majesty, pay attention to the body of the dragon. Don't drink too much wine. This glass of wine is fine for me, but please don't drink it, Your Majesty!"

Lu Zhenfei poured a glass of wine into his mouth as he spoke, but the one who doesn't drink much could not help coughing, so he could only smile wryly: "I can't do Liu Ling after all."

Next, Zhu Youjian walked up to the officials from the north and the officers and soldiers of the Guards to encourage them or say some words of blessing.

Even Zhu Youjian sang a song with these officers and soldiers who depended on him as his confidants.

"When the wind blows, the clouds are flying, and the Vega will return to the hometown. And the warriors will guard the four directions!"

"If you don't see it, the water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky. It flows to the sea and never returns. If you don't see the mirror in the high hall, your hair is sad and white. It's like blue silk in the morning and snow in the evening."

……

From Dafengge to Li Bai's Jiangjinjiu and Man Jianghong.

A series of heroic songs were sung by thousands of men, which added a touch of warmth and heroism to the cold New Year's Eve.

Here, the Empress Zhou also came over calmly and magnanimously, and smiled with several cabinet officials, senior officials of the ministry and hall, and court dignitaries in front of her:

"The son of heaven is the father of the world, and this palace is the mother of the world. No matter how the world changes in the future, please remember, as long as your majesty and this palace are still there, the country and society will be there, and your home will be here! Now the monarch and his ministers are having fun together, let's all have a drink together!"

As a queen, she is naturally different from an ordinary woman. Although the harem is not allowed to engage in politics, it is just a banquet now, so there is no need for the Zhou family to taboo when they see and speak with foreign ministers.

The officials even felt the royal confidence in controlling the people from Zhou's elegant and calm demeanor.

"'It's good that your Majesty and this palace are here, the country is here, and your home is here', although these words are plain, they are full of the hearts of all officials!"

Gao Hongtu secretly sighed, and seeing His Majesty Zhu Youjian who laughed heartily at Li Banghua and others talking about all the embarrassing things on the way to the south in the past, his heart was even heavier, because what he seemed to see was not a The end of the Ming Dynasty, but a vigorous Ming Dynasty.

　The king of France used aluminum cups. What kind of cups did the kings of Ming use better than gold cups?
