Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 53 Zhou Yuji

"The last general Li Ruolian has met His Majesty, long live long live long live!"

Just as soon as they met, Li Ruolian paid a respectful visit. Obviously, he was also very disturbed.

What surprised him was that Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said to him: "It's not a grand court meeting, so there's no need to be so polite, let Li Qing be flat!"

This attitude was something Li Ruolian never expected.

You know, on weekdays, he doesn't have any real power at all in the Jinyiwei yamen.

Because those with power are all Luo Yangxing's confidantes.And he and Luo Yangxing couldn't urinate in the same pot.

He still felt apprehensive, but he already had a little more surprise and anticipation, but he couldn't understand why Emperor Chongzhen treated him so well?
Li Ruolian believes that pies will not fall from the sky for no reason!

So what is it that makes the emperor treat him so well?
Unable to understand, he naturally kept his words low!
Emperor Chongzhen looked at him. After all, he had been emperor for so many years. He could see what Li Ruolian was thinking, so he smiled and asked, "What kind of factory guard does Li Qing think is a qualified factory guard?"

Li Ruolian was a little surprised when he heard it, and looked up at Emperor Chongzhen involuntarily.

He wasn't stupid, Emperor Chongzhen recruited him, he had a good attitude, and even asked such a question, it meant that there was a big opportunity in front of him!
However, Li Ruolian also knew very well that if the emperor could not be satisfied, then there would be no great opportunities.

After brainstorming, the first thing he thought of was naturally Luo Yangxing, the former commander of Jinyiwei who had just been arrested.

Thinking about it this way, he probably had an idea in his mind, as long as he followed Luo's way of cultivating nature, it should be almost the same.

Therefore, Li Ruolian hastily made a generous statement: "The general thought that the factory guards should be His Majesty's eyes and ears, and he should report to His Majesty what happens outside, and what he has in his heart can only be His Majesty!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen was quite satisfied with the answer.Thinking about it again, according to Liu Weichao, Li Ruolian died in battle when he entered the capital as a thief.

So, he smiled again, nodded and said, "If that fellow Luo Yangxing had Li Qing's understanding, why did I let Xichang take him down! It's really a waste of my trust in him and a leapfrog promotion." He is ungrateful!"

Li Ruolian didn't dare to speak after hearing this, but just lowered his head and listened to Emperor Chongzhen's lecture.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at him, and after being silent for a while, he suddenly said: "In the future, can you take care of Jin Yiwei for me?"

It really is a big opportunity!

Li Ruolian was ecstatic in his heart, and quickly expressed it, immediately knelt down on one knee and played back: "The final general will definitely live up to His Majesty's entrustment, the future Jinyiwei will definitely not be the previous Jinyiwei!"

"Okay, okay, okay!" Emperor Chongzhen nodded happily, and then explained, "So, you have three things to do now!"

"Your Majesty, please make an order!" Li Ruolian raised her chest and cupped her fists, meeting his gaze, and said firmly.

Emperor Chongzhen looked into his eyes, and immediately ordered: "First, rectify Jinyiwei, don't be compared by the East Factory and the West Factory!"

"The general obeys orders!" Li Ruolian immediately agreed forcefully.

"Second, during the current period of time, Jin Yiwei accepts prisoners from Xichang and verifies their crimes. Xu Xichang can send someone to observe and report the results to me!"

Hearing this, Li Ruolian was a little surprised.

The emperor's request is tantamount to weakening Xichang's power in a disguised form. What does this mean?
Before he could figure it out, Emperor Chongzhen went on to make the third request: "Thirdly, although the court has never been convicted of crimes by words, what the government and the public are talking about are mainly things. You have to think about it and how to control it." this matter!"

For this request, Li Ruolian was a little surprised.

"For example, in order for the common people to be vaccinated against smallpox as soon as possible, I demonstrated in public in the Wenhua Palace." Emperor Chongzhen felt a little angry when he said this.

After finally making up my mind, I did something that I had never done before. For such a big event, no matter what, I have to leave a mark in the history books, right?
Fortunately, those civil servants were all busy impeaching Xichang, and few of them talked about the cowpox vaccination!

It's really unreasonable!
Do they have their own father in their hearts?
Thinking of this, he said with a bit of anger in his next words, "But according to reports from Xichang, there is very little talk about this outside. Such a thing that is beneficial to the country and the people, hurry up to vaccinate, and there will be fewer people." A person who has smallpox, you think, shouldn't he be the first to tell the world?"

Hearing this, Li Ruolian immediately grasped the meaning of Emperor Chongzhen's words, and immediately replied: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the general will know what to do!"

"Okay, let's do it!" After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "Now the situation in the court is critical, and the time is not waiting for me, so I won't keep you!"

When Li Ruolian heard this, he naturally left immediately.

When he was walking out, a servant missed him in a hurry and reported to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, the deputy general of the Yongwei Battalion, Zhou Yuji, has returned to Beijing with an order, and is now waiting for the order outside the Meridian Gate!"

"Hey, didn't you just send it out, why did you come back?" Li Ruolian had sharp ears, and when he heard it, he was a little curious, but that's what he thought, and he hurried to do his own thing.

Emperor Chongzhen was naturally very happy when he heard this, and immediately ordered Zhou Yuji to have an audience.

Not long after, the servant led Zhou Yuji to rush there.

To be honest, Zhou Yuji was quite puzzled.Not long after he left the capital, the emperor rushed him back to the capital with [-] li. He was so scared that he thought something serious happened to the capital, so he led his troops back day and night.

As a result, before and after entering Beijing, he found that the capital was normal and there was nothing critical, so he was a little puzzled.

At this moment, just as Zhou Yuji was receiving the ceremony, Emperor Chongzhen actually left the throne, walked up to him quickly, supported him personally and said, "Zhou Qing has worked hard for the country wholeheartedly!"

Liu Weichao sent him the introduction of Zhou Yuji. For such a military general who devoted himself to serving the country, especially at such a difficult time, the Emperor Chongzhen was of course very moved and cherished him.

Of course, Emperor Chongzhen was also very emotional, if not for Liu Weichao, he would never have found such a good courtier!

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yuji couldn't help but be very moved by this courteous reception from Emperor Chongzhen, and quickly replied: "The last general is just doing his duty faithfully!"

Hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen was even more relieved. Looking at the sweat on Zhou Yuji's forehead, he sighed: "If all the generals can do their duty as faithfully as you, would I still use the edict of guilt?"

Hearing this, Zhou Yuji was a little panicked, and quickly wanted to say something.

But before he could speak, Emperor Chongzhen took a step back and said seriously, "Zhou Yuji listens to the order!"

When Zhou Yuji heard this, he knelt down on one knee and waited for the order.

"Qing fought for the country, worked hard and made great achievements, and also has a heart of loyalty to serve the country. I am very relieved. I specially designate Qing as Zhongwu Bo, and the number of troops in the army has doubled. This is my honor!"
