Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 292 The Three Year Event of Chongzhen
On the night of the Ming Dynasty's [-]th, Emperor Chongzhen, who was so busy years ago, finally had time to watch this conversation with Huang Taiji while watching the year.

To be honest, this made him a little suspicious, could it be the luck brought by time travel?

I just received Lu Xiangsheng's secret melody yesterday, and I want to know if the imperial court can find out the whereabouts of Master Man Qingshui.No, Huang Taiji had already said that Master Man Qingshui was in Jinzhou.

But thinking about it carefully, it seems that knowing the news of Master Man Qingshui is actually inevitable.

Shanxi merchants were wiped out, separated by Shanhaiguan. When there were no ships before, it was normal for the Manchus to have no idea.But now that they already have ships, it is natural to think of doing business by sea.

And to do business by sea, there must be ships.In this way, Huang Taiji will talk about his navy sooner or later.

At the first moment, Emperor Chongzhen's idea was to tell Lu Xiangsheng the news, and it didn't matter how many Qingshui masters there were. Anyway, it is impossible to have more ships than Zheng Zhilong, and it is impossible to beat Zheng Zhilong. Man Qingshui division wiped out the whole army!
However, he just stood up, before he asked for pen and ink to serve him, he suddenly froze.

Empress Zhou, Concubine Tian Gui and other concubines, as well as the crown prince, who were accompanying Emperor Chongzhen, all stopped their movements when they saw his move, and turned to look at him.

It can be seen that the emperor is definitely thinking about something, his expression is very focused, and he even frowns for a while, and looks happy for a while.

This made them all curious, wondering what the emperor was thinking?
"Hey, what are you doing looking at me like that?" Emperor Chongzhen came back to his senses, suddenly a little strange, and said to them with a smile, "It's New Year's Eve, just have fun and don't look at me like that!"

Hearing this, Empress Zhou knew that the emperor must have figured out something, and it was a good thing, so she smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I don't know what's happy, tell me so that everyone will be happy too?"

As soon as he heard this, Emperor Chongzhen knew why they were looking at him. After thinking about it, he sat back and looked at the curious eyes of the pairs. He smiled and said: "Don't look at Jianlu who seems to be very powerful. I just thought of a way, even if Jianlu can't afford it, he will be crushed by the Ming Dynasty in just a few years."

Upon hearing this, no matter if it was the concubine or the prince, all of them immediately showed joy and complimented the emperor.

On the contrary, Empress Zhou, who was the head of the harem, frowned. Although she didn't speak, it could be seen that she was actually a little worried.

Emperor Chongzhen was in a good mood. Seeing Empress Zhou's expression, he couldn't help but smiled and said: "This is not the court, and today is the New Year's Eve. Our family is watching the year. If you have something on your mind, just say it and talk freely. avoid!"

After finishing speaking, he pointed at Empress Zhou, and said with a chuckle: "How about it, my queen, just say what you have to say, I still know the truth of honest words that are harsh!"

When the others heard this, they couldn't help but immediately turned their heads to look at Queen Zhou, somewhat surprised in their hearts.But looking back, it seems that the queen seems to be such a person, and in this harem, only she is qualified to remind the emperor.

When Empress Zhou heard the emperor's words, her heart moved, she probably knew that the emperor had a good idea in her heart, and she really wanted to take this opportunity to talk about it in front of everyone.

So, she satisfied Emperor Chongzhen's wishes, and said to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, although I, Ming, defeated Jianlu once in the Battle of Tianjin, Jianlu still looted countless people and animals from the pass, and there is nothing I, Daming, can do. And for so many years, Jianlu has fought countless times and won many battles. From this, it can be seen that Jianlu's strength is not just talked about casually, and I hope that Your Majesty will not underestimate the enemy!"

Hearing this, the others couldn't help but nodded.Even women and children living in deep palaces have heard of Jianlu's prestige.In particular, Jianlu entered the customs several times, but in the end, Jianlu actually evacuated after being full of plunder.

Therefore, they were very curious, did the emperor underestimate the enemy, or did he really come up with a good way to defeat Jianlu?

Thinking this way, after listening to Queen Zhou's advice, they turned their heads to look at the emperor again, to see what he had to say?
After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen was really not annoyed, he just smiled, then glanced at the eyes staring at him, and said slowly: "I didn't just talk about it just now. The most important factor in the future is that I will pass the prisoner At least in a short period of time, it is basically impossible for Jianlu to buy what they want from Daming. In this way, Jianlu’s daily consumption cannot be supplemented by outside, so he can only consume The materials produced in Liaodong. And Liaodong is barren, so it can be seen that Jianlu's life will become more and more difficult."

When he heard him say this, the prince seemed to want to speak, but he was still afraid of the majesty of the emperor, so he looked at his mother.

Queen Zhou saw it and guessed what her son was thinking, so she encouraged him with her eyes.

When the prince saw it, he opened his mouth and said: "Father, what should I do if the Jian prisoner enters the pass again to snatch it?"

Emperor Chongzhen heard the sound and looked at it, but he didn't expect him to ask such a question, but he changed his mind a little bit, so he nodded and answered him: "This question is a good question. After all, Jianlu used to enter the customs to plunder before, and gained a lot of money. Less supplies..."

When the prince heard this, he couldn't help but smile, very happy.After all, he is only a ten-year-old child, and he is much happier to be praised by his father, who has always been afraid, than all the times he was praised by his mother before.

However, Emperor Chongzhen then changed the subject and said: "But marching and fighting, there has never been a saying that you will win. Jianlu will have to pay a heavy price if he wants to bypass Mongolia from Liaodong to enter the customs. If the plunder is not enough Supplies, or not being able to enter the customs at all, or even losing the battle, will have a great impact on the morale and strength of Jianlu. No matter what the slave chieftains are, they will definitely weigh the gains and losses before sending troops..."

What he said was easy to understand, and all the women and children listened attentively.

"...In the past, there were Shanxi merchants as their internal response. Knowing the truth and reality in the pass, the slave chieftains were very confident that they could enter the pass and plunder enough supplies before Jianlu would enter the pass. But now, Shanxi merchants Having been destroyed by me, Jianlu has become deaf and blind, ignorant of the real situation in the pass, and there are many uncertain factors, the slave chieftains will definitely not dare to enter the pass again at will. This is one of them!"

"Secondly, in the previous battle in Tianjin, no matter whether the Jianlu were careless or not, the Jianlu were defeated anyway. This also gave them a warning. It shows that our Ming Dynasty does not have no army to fight. Of course, I personally conquered Hetao before. The affairs of the Tartars will also put pressure on the slave chief. These things combined will make the slave chief afraid to act rashly."

Speaking of this, he looked at the crown prince and said: "All these things, the slave chief has no choice but to take risks. After all, although my Daming lost Liaodong, it would not have much impact, but if the slave chief loses a lot, it is very likely that he will never recover. Therefore, what I thought of just now is to boil the frog in warm water. Let Jianlu feel that I am powerful, but I can still deal with it. Then, I will consume Jianlu's strength unconsciously. When Jianlu finds out, But I found that my strength has been greatly reduced, and I am unable to take the initiative to launch a large attack.”

"It turns out that this is the case, my son understands, the father is really amazing!" The prince listened and played back with admiration.

After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen shook his head in his heart. In fact, he just gave a general idea.This prince, I don't know if he pretends to understand, or he is too young to understand more?
But on the surface, he didn't reveal what he thought in his heart, just be happy when it's New Year's Eve.After another conversation with his wife and children, Emperor Chongzhen still left, took a few personal servants, and carefully sorted out what he had just thought, and then asked someone to send it to Lu Xiangsheng the next day.

After finishing this work, Emperor Chongzhen returned to his wife and children and continued to watch the year, but in fact, he was checking his eavesdropping seeds.

Today, Emperor Chongzhen has a total of six Grade A eavesdropping seeds, respectively in Hong Chengchou, Governor of Xuanda, Lu Xiangsheng, Governor of Baoding, Chen Qiyu, Governor of Five Provinces, Wu Zhong of Jinyiwei Hundred Households, Gushan Erzhen Turge of Xiangbai Banner, and Zhang Yushi, the Southern Patrolling Censor. Pu's body.Among them, Zhang Pu's Grade A wiretapping seed was recovered from Liu Yue, a thousand household of Jinyiwei.

The two second-level eavesdropping seeds were on the bodies of Sun Chuanting, governor of Jiliao, and Li Ruolian, commander of Jinyiwei.

There are more Class C eavesdropping seeds, and most of them are placed on the capital's side.

After checking this, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help being a little dissatisfied with the system, he was too stingy, and only gave such a small amount of eavesdropping seeds!
At this time, he has already tasted the benefits brought by the wiretapping seeds, so he is eager to have more wiretapping seeds, the better!

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard his concubines and children cheering. It turned out that the 13th year of Chongzhen had arrived!
At this moment, in front of Emperor Chongzhen's eyes, lines of words that only he could see were slowly displayed.

"In the 12th year of Chongzhen, the host expelled Jianlu from Guannei, set up the Daming Royal Bank, seized the Shanxi Merchants Group, seized Hetao resources, wiped out the thieves, and laid a solid foundation for Daming Zhongxing. After the system evaluation, the host performed excellently, especially Reward a Grade A eavesdropping seed as a reward!"

After reading it, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help being overjoyed, completely forgetting that he had complained about the system before, and wished he could kiss the system.Do whatever you want, don't be too nice!

After being happy for a while, Emperor Chongzhen fell into the trouble of happiness again: Who is it more useful to give this Grade A wiretapping seed?

In the 13th year of Chongzhen that has come, what big things are there to do?Emperor Chongzhen secretly analyzed it in his heart.

First, the promotion of bank notes must continue.Undoubtedly, this point is mainly due to the fact that the provincial branches must speed up their progress;
Second, the establishment of the local Metropolitan Procuratorate must continue. Not only must it be fast, but the choice of the local censor is also very important.This is related to local government officials, so it must not be sloppy!
Third, disaster relief, disaster relief, construction of water conservancy and other things in various places must be persisted and given enough attention.

Fourth, the verification of the quota for preferential exemption for officials and gentry, and the collection of owed taxes are the focus of Chongzhen's 13 years.This one is actually related to the third point. The most important thing is to look at the progress of Zhang Pu and Wu Changshi in the Jiangnan area.If successful, it can be rolled out nationwide.If it doesn't go well, then it has to go well.When necessary, I don't mind killing chickens and scaring monkeys!
When thinking of this, Emperor Chongzhen took this point seriously, and then continued to think about the next thing.

Fifth, the reconstruction of Dongjiang Town is the biggest military goal of Chongzhen in 13 years.In order for the Dongjiang army to firmly stand on Phi Island, it is best to take down the adjacent islands and land, threaten the flanks of the Manchus, and crucify the Manchus in Liaodong.This matter is also very important and must be focused on.

Sixth, the Northwest War should not be taken lightly.The rebel general Chai Shihua was based on the Urad tribe and borrowed troops from other tribes. It is unknown how much impact it would have on the southwest region.

Seventh, the Southwest War, even though Qin Liangyu and the Baigan Army were sent there, it may not be possible to wipe out the Tusi Rebellion, and it is still unknown.If it cannot be wiped out, the chieftain rebellion cannot be allowed to expand.

……

After thinking for a long time, Emperor Chongzhen probably figured out seven major events in Chongzhen's 13 years.Of course, whether there will be unexpected things later, Emperor Chongzhen himself can't know, and can't predict, so I won't talk about it.

After thinking about these seven things for a long time, Emperor Chongzhen ordered Lan Tianbao, who was waiting by his side, to say: "Tomorrow morning, I will bring my oral order to Dengzhou, saying that Zheng Zhilong took the initiative to bring food to the north last year, and solved the problem." A small trouble. I am very pleased, and specially approved him to come to the capital to reunite with his son for half a month."

Others naturally don't know, these are actually excuses, the real reason is that Emperor Chongzhen decided to reward Zheng Zhilong with the newly obtained Grade A wiretapping seeds.Therefore, this Zheng Zhilong will be a key figure in the future, and it is also related to the strategy he wants to implement against Jianlu.

Fifteen days later, the angel rushed to Dengzhou.

Lu Xiangsheng attended the secret concert before, but he didn't have much hope, he just wanted to try it out.He didn't expect that the emperor actually knew where Jianlu Navy was.

He was overjoyed by this, and said to Zheng Zhilong: "Now, it is known that the Jianlu navy is in Jinzhou, so there is no need to spend too much effort to investigate."

Speaking of this, Lu Xiangsheng showed a strange look on his face again, and said in surprise: "It's just the emperor's request that you can't go all out, and you can't wipe out the Jianlu navy at once. I don't know if this is What's the meaning?"

Zheng Zhilong is also unclear, although it is not difficult for him to do what the imperial decree requires.But why did the emperor do this?No trouble?

Just as he was thinking, he heard Lu Xiangsheng ask him: "Since you are going to the capital, then go to meet His Majesty and ask what's going on?"
