Rule the Ming Dynasty Alone

Chapter 72 Aftermath 4

In Dongjiangmi Lane, all the government offices have turned into a mess.

Throughout the ages, what civil servants feared most was mutiny. If you encounter civilian officials planning a mutiny, it's okay, because your own people will be reasonable after all, but if you encounter such a stubborn military leader or peasant, you will probably be boiled.

"Who led the rebellion?"

"I heard it's Fenwu Camp, but there's already blood in the camp!"

"The latest news I got is from the martial arts training camp. They seem to be trying to help the king seize the door!"

"Is it possible that the brains of these grandsons have been caught in the door? Back then, the late emperor really wanted to abolish Chu, but a slave could stop it?"

"This news is wrong. How can King Xing be qualified to seize the throne? I heard that he dared to rebel, and now he is killing people on the street!"

Due to the variety of sources of information, it is inevitable that there will be exaggerated and imaginary rumors, causing officials who originally turned pale when they heard "rebellion" to tremble with fear.

Rebellion, murder, war, burning, looting, massacre...

Bad words kept flashing through, tormenting these imaginative civil servants.

Although they usually show off their military power, they often regard themselves as military strategists because they have read a few military books. But when they learned that there was a military disaster in Beijing, they immediately thought of how to run away.

"Don't listen to the wind, it will be rain. Let all the officials in the department go back to the government offices!" Fortunately, the senior officials in each government office were relatively calm, but they all stood up and took charge of the overall situation.

Li Yu, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and Du Ming, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, vaguely guessed what was going on, so they personally stepped forward to restrain the officials in their yamen, resolutely pretending that nothing had happened.

Just facing the senior officials who came out to stop the rumors, some officials with eyes and ears muttering: "The Ministry of Rites has already disappeared!"

Ni Yue, the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, was thrown into the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, while Huang Jing, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhou Hongmo, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, had returned home to live idle because of their involvement in spreading rumors of abolishing the reserve. The officials of the Ministry of Rites, who had lost their restraint, fled back home to avoid trouble.

As the city gates of Beijing and the Imperial City were closed one after another, and it was true that no rebels were seen killing people in the streets, people from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division had already maintained order on West Chang'an Street, and many officials gradually calmed down. Come down.

Although the rebels are very scary, this is the imperial capital after all. Even if someone really wants to lead a rebellion, the city of Beijing and the imperial city here can be regarded as iron walls, and the loyalty of the soldiers of the Beijing army is the highest.

As long as it is handled properly, just like Cao Qin's mutiny, there will be no disturbance at all.

"The rumors stop with the wise, this time the commanders of the three capital camps were dissatisfied with His Majesty's eunuchs sent to take over and caused trouble!"

"Trouble? As far as I know, someone has killed the eunuch sent to take charge of the army. What is this if not rebellion?"

"If you don't follow the imperial edict, I think some people in the army have already rebelled. The Beijing army needs to be punished!"

"If we want to rectify it, I think we should rectify the twelve wine bags and rice bags. All twelve of them went home to catch up on their sleep after the morning meeting!"

Many officials had slowly calmed down, and after confirming that it was not the cauldron they imagined, they immediately pointed their fingers at the rioting commander of the Beijing camp and the twelve military-honored admirals.

Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace.

"I respectfully greet you for your humble duties!" Zhu Ji and Mou Bin came in to meet the saint together and saluted Zhu Youtang respectfully.

Zhu Youtang rarely had contact with Jin Yiwei, so he went straight to the point: "Honor, Holy Gong! Today the Lianwu Camp, Guokang Camp and Yangwei Camp are resisting the imperial decree. The little commander will not be so rampant. Your Beizhen Fu Division will immediately investigate and trace these three As someone who has close contact with the commander, I will definitely find out all the masterminds behind the scenes!"

this……

Zhu Ji and Mou Bin secretly exchanged glances, but they knew that if they started with these three commanders, the fire would probably burn into the intricate network of relationships within the civil service group.

Throughout the Ming Dynasty, there were only general soldiers who offended civil servants and were demoted or beheaded. We have never heard of a general soldier who died for offending a military official.

Now the generals of the Beijing army are not stupid, so they naturally want to embrace the thickest thighs, and Wu Xun, who cannot protect himself, cannot bring them promotions and titles.

Zhu Ji was already in his fifties, and after all, he had experienced many years of ups and downs. Naturally, these first things had to be left to young people to handle, so he gave Mou Bin a wink.

Mou Bin is a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He also had a glimpse of Zhu Youtang's little thoughts, so he tried to dissuade him: "Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, the 12th Regiment and Battalion have always been personal guards and have absolute respect for your Majesty. Loyalty! This time it seems that some senior generals in the battalion were upset because they resisted the eunuchs' command of the army. I'm afraid there is no culprit behind this!"

Liang Fang frowned, but silently looked at this unfamiliar Jinyi Wei Qianshi.

"Mou Qianshi, when did you join the Jinyiwei?" Zhu Youtang asked calmly, looking at this decent-looking face with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

Mou Bin's eyes flashed with pride, and he responded truthfully: "Reporting to Your Majesty, my humble position is that I joined the Jinyiwei in the 21st year of Chenghua, and it is hereditary for hundreds of families!"

"In three years, I was promoted from Jinyi Baihu to the fourth rank. The road to the imperial palace was too smooth and too hasty. On the contrary, I no longer know how to kneel! When you return to the position of Baihu, you will be a good person. Walking around, I hope that when we meet next time, you can remember to lower your head, I won't like it!" Zhu Youtang did not feel angry, but gave serious advice.

Liang Fang turned to look at Zhu Youtang, her eyes filled with tears, and she realized that the new king was slowly transforming into a real emperor.

Is the road to Yuqian too smooth?

Another good walk?

Remember, if you lower your head lower, I won’t like it?

Cold sweat broke out on Zhu Ji's forehead, and he seemed to swallow carefully, while silently lowering his head further.

According to earlier intelligence, this wardrobe prince is a very tolerant person. Not only does he never punish the people around him, but he will listen carefully to the suggestions of others.

It's just that all the previous intelligence was invalid at this moment. Even the previously arbitrary Emperor Chenghua had a tolerant side, but this new emperor ruined Mu Bin's camp and the efforts of the people behind it just because of Mu Bin's words.

The dignified fourth-rank Jinyi Wei Qianshi was recognized by everyone as the most powerful candidate to succeed him, but now he was shaken back to his original shape by the new king's words.

What would have been the result if I had just spoken?

With this thought, he no longer dared to think about it anymore, knowing that it would also have a very terrible consequence, and the new king in front of him was simply a bird of prey.

Mou Bin's mouth opened slightly, but he quickly summoned up the courage to say: "Your Majesty, Wei Chen is not convinced. Wei Chen's journey is... to accumulate military merit and promotion, not to gain from cheating and cheating. Please take back your life!"

"Your Majesty, it is true that he was promoted to the position of Jinyiwei Qianshi just because of merit. Wynn personally asked for credit for him!" Liang Fang reminded him with a smile as if he had thought of something.

Mou Bin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he nodded hurriedly: "That's right, Wei Chen is investigating the theft of Eunuch Huai's house!"

Zhu Ji lowered his head, this time not because of Zhu Youtang's words, but because he didn't expect that the person kneeling next to him was a pig. Fortunately, the group of people had been pushing this person to succeed him.

"Commander Zhu, your head is too low!" Zhu Youtang was not interested in how Mou Bin got up, and reminded Zhu Ji, whose head was almost touching the ground.

When Zhu Ji thought that the new monarch had hidden so much in the past, and felt that the officials who despised the new monarch had been harmed by his own intelligence, he couldn't help but feel the hair on his hair stand on end and said: "I'm scared, I'm here!"

"My patience with your inspection is limited! If you can't handle such a small matter, there are hundreds of thousands of Jinyi Guards, and I don't believe that I can't find anyone who can handle it!" Although Zhu Youtang doesn't plan to remove Zhu Ji, But choose to go for a banging tunnel.

Zhu Ji knew that the new emperor would be ten times more difficult to serve than the former emperor, so he bravely expressed his stance: "I obey, let's go and find out who is behind this rebellion!"

"Stand back!" Zhu Youtang waved his hands nonchalantly as he didn't want to waste too much time on these two people.

The Forbidden City is already on alert, so entering and exiting the palace is very complicated.

Mou Bin's spirit and elegance disappeared, and Zhu Youtang's words just now kept echoing in his mind. When I look back at the palace I walked through, I saw that I had walked through it just now, but this palace road has become so far away.

"Let's go!" Zhu Ji saw that the palace door had opened and reminded Mou Bin who had been demoted back to the Hundred Households in Jinyi.

Mou Bin looked back at the palace road leading to Fengtianmen with nostalgia. It was obvious that this palace road was already so far away from him, but he wanted to walk on it again - because this palace road was indeed the longest in the world. Beautiful palace passage, the emperor at the end of the palace passage is the most powerful king in the world.

It was Xiangwu, and the entire Meridian Gate Square was shrouded in sunlight.

"Brother Shang De, what did your Majesty just say?" Yu Zijun, Minister of the Ministry of War, has been waiting here for news. When he saw Zhu Ji coming out of the interview, he pulled aside and asked.

Zhu Ji knew the value of a minister of the Ministry of War, so he immediately chose to save him and said: "Your Majesty wants to investigate the officials who have close contacts with the commander of the third battalion. You'd better pay attention and don't have anything to do with these three people!"

"I will deal with this matter immediately. I will never thank you for your kindness!" Yu Zijun immediately made a decision in his heart, and patted Zhu Ji's arm gratefully to show his intimacy.

Zhu Ji knew that Yu Zijun could definitely save himself, so he invited with a smile: "Your Majesty is watching now, and after this matter is over, let's get together again!"

"I will be the host at home then, and I will definitely make my brothers happy!" Yu Zijun knew that he could escape this disaster, and patted Zhu Ji's shoulder again and said happily.

At this moment, a fast horse came from far away, and the man on the horse looked very happy and said: "Master Yu, save me!"

Yu Zijun was excited that he had found a way to successfully escape this disaster, but when he saw the person coming clearly, he suddenly felt a hundred grass and mud horses galloping past in his heart.

The family had a chest piercing operation, so they went to the hospital for care today. This update was delayed. This is the chapter for this afternoon. The chapter for the early morning will be moved to tomorrow daytime.
