Chapter 518

Chunnuan Pavilion, the place where the emperor works, has cornices and tassels on the outside. The huge palace looks majestic and solemn, but there is still a feeling of lethargy that cannot be dissipated. I walked into the palace under the leadership of the princess. Chongzhen had been waiting inside for a long time, and there was a young man beside him, Zhou Tingru, who felt angry when Zhou Tingru saw him, Xiao Chuan.

Xiao Chuan just knelt down to see His Majesty, this process is already smooth and smooth, Chongzhen looked at Xiao Chuan with inexplicable eyes, for him, he was entangled, and he helped him up, the vicissitudes of his face showed the tangle of middle-aged him. Some are old and their yellow robes are already very worn out.The eunuch Wang Chengen on the side and Zhou Tingru no longer have the tacit understanding and harmony with Wen Tiren.

"Aiqing is here, and so is Yan'er." Chongzhen looked at the princess with a hint of kindness. This daughter made him very happy. Sometimes he even thought that it would be better if she was a man. She is more suitable to be a prince than Lang'er. The inner factory has been managed by her in such an orderly manner, and its efficiency is still higher than that of the east factory, west factory, and Jinyiwei.

"Sit!" Chongzhen pointed to the side and said that Xiao Chuan couldn't bear it when he saw Zhou Tingru, and said, "Master Zhou, why did you send the Yi soldiers to besiege Zhang Xianzhong? You must know that the Yi soldiers themselves were excluded because of the extravagant Chongming rebellion, and they felt resentful." , In this way, it is like sending troops to the traitor Zhang Xianzhong!" The princess beside him took Xiao Chuan by the arm and hoped that he would stop talking.

Zhou Tingru snorted and said, "Because of this, let the rebels trap the rebels, and those who die will be disloyal people, and there will be no loss to my Ming Dynasty at all, how about it? Master Qin, you are thinking too much. These Yi soldiers Put them in other places and they will rebel instead. Letting them deal with Zhang Xianzhong just proves our trust in them and makes these barbarians feel grateful. At the same time, even if something happens, the loss is only a group of people with rebellious hearts.”

"You know that Zhang Xianzhong is very likely to directly recruit these Yi soldiers, you idiot" Xiao Chuan understands why there is a record in the history of the Ming Dynasty, Ge Lao is furious, all his teammates are idiots, watching Zhou Tingru's self-satisfied Look, don't know what to say.

"You are joking, General Qin, the Yi soldiers speak a language that even Zhang Xianzhong can't understand how to recruit them? Besides, there is a bandit and a Ming soldier. Although the Yi soldiers are disobedient, they are my ministers of the Ming Dynasty. Your Majesty forgive them." How did they join forces with the thieves in their crimes?" Zhou Tingru snorted and laughed.

"Don't quarrel! It's not expensive to be friendly," Wang Cheng'en said on the side, Chongzhen's face was full of helplessness, Zhou Tingru just left, and Xiaochuan was invited to a banquet at night, but Zhou Tingru was indeed not invited, Chongzhen looked outside the room and said, "He is the leader." Fu, I am also very helpless." Xiao Chuan said this very strangely, what do you mean you are helpless when he is the first assistant?
"The Donglin Party is full of wings. It runs through the officialdom in the south of the Yangtze River and the soldiers and horses in various towns are connected with them, especially the Guanning Army." Qi Jiguang who was stationed at the border of Jimen, it was Qi Jiguang who gave Zhang Juzheng the right to cover the sky with one hand, a lackey Xiao Qi brought Zhang Juzheng the most elite army of Ming Dynasty, and the Donglin Party is inextricably linked with the Guanning Army. His inextricable relationship with Liaodong's military expenditure is doomed to his unshakable status.

"Your Majesty, you know," Xiao Huan said strangely. He thought the emperor didn't know that Chongzhen said with helplessness in his eyes, "I have done a lot of wrong things. I dismissed Mr. Sun Ge, appointed Yuan Chonghuan, and killed Wei Zhongxian. Although Wei Zhongxian was hateful, he was there. , there wouldn’t be the Donglin Party, which is ten thousand times more hateful!”

Since you know the East Neighboring Rebel Party, you still listen to Zhou Tingru's words!Xiaochuan slandered in his heart, and Chongzhen said again, "This time you saw Yang Guozhu, Hu Dawei and others, and you saw Xuan Da's soldiers and horses?" He said.

"They are brave and good at fighting. Xuanda's troops are as good as the Qingzhou Army." Xiaochuan replied. He did see that Chongzhen's eyes were a little red. He recalled something and said, "I'm sorry for Lu Xiangsheng, and I'm sorry for Xuanda," he said. With a sense of loneliness and regret, Lu Xiangsheng died in battle, an extremely useless death.

"Your Majesty, Xuanda has only loyal ministers to His Majesty" Xiao Chuan said very seriously. It is true that Xuanda's soldiers and horses are loyal and capable of fighting, but his relationship with him is indeed more than the sun and moon flags on their heads. This Chongzhen seems to be unaware that his crown prince has relied on His own indifference dispelled Xuan Da's loyalty, and their relationship with him became stronger.

After hearing this, Chongzhen sighed leisurely and said, "I have been sorry to many people in my life, Sun Chengzong, I let him live in his old age, Sun Chuanting, I have re-enabled him, Mao Wenlong?" Thinking of this name, he shook his head and felt sour in his heart, "Dongjiang The town soldiers fought a bloody battle with the Qing army in the hinterland of Liaodong. It’s all my fault that I didn’t see the situation clearly that day. Yang Zhaoji, Mangui, and Zhao Shujiao died miserably.”

"Lu Xiangsheng, supervisor!" Chongzhen said here with tears, Lu Xiangsheng's death was a heroic battle, the bloody battle against the giant deer, Guan Ningjun refused to save him, he was looking for death, and buried his ideal Ming Dynasty, and he did not When you show your twilight, at least you won’t be disappointed or sad if you die early in battle, and you won’t feel the kind of distress because of the demise of the dynasty. The Ming Dynasty is dead, and Lu Xiangsheng will die with him. He doesn’t want to see his belief again. Slowly collapsing, different from himself, Xiao Chuan does not have this kind of belief in his heart, only friends and people he likes happily guarding that piece of paradise is what he wants.

Thinking of Lu Xiangsheng's death, Xiao Chuan's eyes were a little moist. That middle-aged man whose face was full of toughness was always like a piece of steel, giving people fortitude and tenacity. His death dealt a great blow to Xiao Chuan. He had a sore eye feeling after not shedding tears for a long time.

Chongzhen raised his head, with a sadness on his face, sitting with Xiao Chuan, talking about the past, Chongzhen just said quietly, quietly talking about his childhood, I don’t know why, he spoke very slowly , Xiaochuan listened carefully, and kept hearing him talk about the wrong things he did after he ascended the throne. He didn't understand why the emperor would express such emotion.

"Father, drink tea." The princess on the side handed a cup of tea, and Chongzhen laughed and said, "You, General Qin is here, so be good, haha!" He laughed, looked at Xiao Chuan again and said, "Do you think I am very strange today, I have talked so much for no reason, and I am also very strange, but I feel much better after speaking out, and I feel much more comfortable." He laughed loudly, and Wang Chengen showed a kind of relief at the side. Every time His Majesty sees General Qin, he always Will have a good laugh.

Chongzhen touched his beard and saw that Xiaochuan was not so entangled. He seemed to be a lot less concerned. This is not a relationship between a king and his ministers where the master is weak and the servant is strong, but an exchange between friends. It is too cold to be in high places. Chongzhen, who became the emperor, discovered at this moment , Standing on a high place like myself to experience the cold is not only me alone.
