Chongzhen Chat Group

The imperial edict was drawn up one by one, and Hu Guang read it one by one. If he was not satisfied, he immediately asked for a rewrite. I was busy until noon before I finished writing a few imperial edicts.

Hu Guang's body has been working hard for days, and he stayed up all night last night. Although he is young, the accumulated fatigue is not fake. By noon, my stomach was growling.

As the saying goes, people are as good as rice and steel. Only when they have enough food and drink, and good health can they have revolution...the capital of being an emperor. Hu Guang thought in his mind, and immediately patted his butt and left.

"Farewell to Your Majesty!" The ministers headed by Chief Assistant Han Xu bowed and saluted. Everyone felt relieved in their hearts.

"Ding, the achievement value is +1, from the first assistant Han Xu!"

"Ding, the achievement value is +1, from the second assistant Li Biao!"

"Ding, achievement value +1, from cabinet minister Qian Longxi!"

"Ding, the achievement value +1 comes from the minister's fate!"

"Ding, the achievement value is +1, from the cabinet minister Zhou Yanru!"

"Ding, the achievement value is +1, from the Minister of War, Shen Yongmao!"

Hu Guang was walking when he heard the continuous pleasant "ding-ding" sound and saw the achievement value: 56 in the lower left corner of the chat group. He couldn't help but feel very happy.

But he didn't expect that this wasn't over yet, and the system's beep sounded immediately again.

"Ding, achievement value +5, from eunuch Cao Huachun!"

"Ding, the achievement value is +1, from the eunuch Xiao Lizi!"

"Ding, achievement value +1, from eunuch mustache!"

"Ding, the achievement value is +1, from the palace maid Qiuyue!"

"Ding, the achievement value is +1, from the palace maid Chunxiang!"

"..."

Hu Guang quickly looked at the lower left corner of the chat group and found that the achievement value finally stopped at 76. It's surprising that the eunuchs and maids serving on the platform this time were all shocked by his performance.

Thinking of this, Hu Guang couldn't help but regret deeply. If he had known this, the pomp should have been bigger. There were about ten or eight eunuchs and maids standing beside him. Even if each of them was given a little achievement point, they would have hundreds of points. What a mistake!

While summing up his experience and lessons, Hu Guang went to have lunch with a little regret.

But here, none of the civil servants paid attention to the military commander Man Gui, and under the leadership of the chief assistant Han Xu, they silently returned to Wenyuan Pavilion. No one was in the mood to eat, they were all thinking about Emperor Chongzhen's words and deeds. The clerk's office and other cabinet staff saw something was wrong, so they did not dare to speak out and tried to reduce their presence as much as possible.

For a long time, a long sigh suddenly sounded in the quiet cabinet. When everyone looked, they found that the chief assistant, Han Xu, seemed much older. After sighing, he reached for the brush.

When Qian Longxi saw this, he quickly stood up from his seat, strode over and asked with concern: "What are you doing?"

Han Xu raised his head and glanced at him. He didn't know what was conveyed in his eyes. He seemed to say dejectedly: "I am old and have low energy. I will write a resignation now and plan to retire and return home!"

Upon hearing this, everyone in the cabinet, regardless of their position, looked at him in shock.

Second Assistant Li Biao's expression changed even more. He suddenly stood up and shouted at the clerks: "You all get out!"

In this case, everyone knows the inside story. However, no one dared to keep it even if they had a burning desire to gossip, so they hurriedly responded.

As soon as these people left, Li Biao immediately walked up to Han Xu and said with a sincere face: "The Prime Minister's words are serious, the cabinet cannot do without you!"

Although he covets the position of chief minister, Emperor Chongzhen just made a series of decisions that shocked the court. As a cabinet minister, he will definitely be under pressure from civil and military officials, royal relatives and nobles. In particular, the chief minister of the cabinet is the first to bear the brunt. After all, let Han Xu be the scapegoat first. After blocking this wave, it won't be too late to take over. Therefore, he immediately spoke out to persuade him to stay.

His thoughts were unknown to the sophisticated Han Xu. The reason why he wants to retire now and return home is because he knows that his position as the first assistant is not guaranteed, so why should he take the blame. Don’t you, Li Biao, want this position? I’ll just give it to you.

Zhou Yanru, who is thirty-seven years old here and has just joined the cabinet, is the youngest. Although he also hopes that all the cabinet ministers who are above him will get out, but this is an extraordinary period and he has no confidence at all, so I don’t want these big guys to leave at this time.

He heard the meaning of Han Xu's words. He should be resentful of the emperor calling him an old man, so he quickly followed up and advised: "Your Majesty also made an unintentional mistake. Please don't mind it, the chief minister, put the state affairs first, and spend time together." Trouble!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Qian Longxi's body suddenly swaying, and then he put his hand on his forehead as if he was dizzy, which attracted the attention of others.

"Mr. Qian Ge, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Yanru was beside him and asked quickly and concernedly.

Qian Longxi waited for a while and then slowly replied: "I am not feeling well, and I have been holding back. It was just..."

When he said this, he paused and said with regret: "I'm old. It seems I need to rest for a while."

As he said that, he slowly turned to his seat and wanted to write something. He was obviously going to take leave.

Cheng Jiming watched from the side, feeling very contemptuous in his heart. Among these cabinet members, he is the eldest, seventy-one years old, but he did not say that he was too old to be used anymore, but two people used this reason to take leave or return home.

In fact, he knew very well that the emperor's decision in the morning, especially to let those with merit and fame also participate in the defense of the city, otherwise they would have to pay and pay for food, which would definitely offend too many people. Han Xu and Qian Longxi were already worried about being implicated in Yuan Chonghuan's case, so how could they offend more people.

If they retreat in order to advance, the emperor will have a hard time, and the other person will also have a hard time. With this thought in mind, he turned his attention to Jisuke.

Sure enough, when Li Biao saw that Han Xu and Qian Longxi did not listen to the advice and started writing, he couldn't help but sighed and said: "The emperor is still too young, and his impulsiveness has made his ministers discouraged. Such things, Biao is trying to be If you are punished, you must also write to the chief assistant to ask for an explanation. Otherwise, you will be ashamed of being the second assistant."

When Cheng Jiming saw it, he sneered in his heart. He didn't say anything, just watched what happened. If three cabinet ministers are suddenly vacant, the emperor will definitely be in trouble.

No matter what, the emperor didn't know what was going on, but he suddenly became so aggressive and arbitrary. It is also good for them to do this to let the emperor understand some truth.

Besides, Cao Huachun silently followed Emperor Chongzhen towards the harem. Having more time to think about it made him feel a little panicked.

The task assigned to him by Emperor Chongzhen was very heavy, and he made it clear that if this matter was not handled well, not to mention that the positions of eunuch Bingbi and admiral of Dongchang would not be preserved, and even their lives might be lost. But this fact is really difficult to handle. If you just immerse yourself in it without saying a word, you are likely to make things worse. Moreover, it is a bit too much for you to bear the pressure of civil servants, military generals, royal relatives and nobles alone. How should you handle it?
