Before the people arrived, the voice came first, Li Yongzhen looked a bit feminine but had a hearty laugh and came first: "Our family came uninvited, and I hope the Duke will forgive me."

Xu Hongji laughed and led Li Yongzhen into his seat, and ordered someone to prepare tea, then he said with a smile: "I said that there were magpies chirping in the yard early in the morning, so it turned out that some distinguished guests came to the door."

Li Yongzhen waved his hands with a smile and said, "What kind of distinguished guest, except for what you Wei Guogui said, no one else would treat slaves as evil guests."

After finishing speaking, he laughed again, Li Yongzhen turned his attention to Xu Wenjue, and praised: "The young master has changed a lot in the past few years in the Beijing camp."

Xu Hongji said with a smile: "Finally, he has made some progress, and he is no longer the playboy he used to be."

Li Yongzhen said: "This is a good thing."

Without waiting for Xu Hongji to say a few more polite words, and without avoiding Xu Wenjue, Li Yongzhen said directly: "My lord, this servant is coming back to ask about military equipment."

Xu Hongji picked up the tea and took a sip, then smiled lightly and said, "Why is Eunuch Li so anxious? Our net has already been laid, and now we are waiting for these fish to jump up."

Li Yongzhen sighed: "Our family is afraid. We are not afraid of the Duke's jokes. These guys are jumping out now, and they are really doing it. Our family is not afraid. We are afraid that they will poke some monsters behind their backs to scare people." .”

Xu Hongji said with a smile: "As for those cowardly people, even if they borrow a little courage from them, they can't make any big waves."

Li Yongzhen said: "Master Guo, do you still remember the tombstones of the five people?"

Xu Hongji narrowed his eyes, and said coldly: "Of course Xu remembers, but Eunuch Li can see the second generation of Zhang Pu and Zhang Cai?"

Hearing what Xu Hongji said, Li Yongzhen felt relieved, but still worried, took out a few pieces of paper from his sleeve and handed them to Xu Hongji, with a smile uglier than crying and said: " Grandpa, look at this first."

After Xu Hongji took the papers and flipped through them for a while, an angry look gradually appeared on his face, and he slapped the papers on the table with a bang, causing the trembling teacup to tremble.

Li Yongzhen struggled and said: "Grandpa saw it, these bastards are still the same as before, but the people they pushed out were not very useful, this time these bastards came forward in person."

Xu Hongji said coldly: "Then let them jump, I want to see what they can jump out of!"

A few days after Xu Hongji saw those papers, the original memorial was placed on Emperor Chongzhen's desk.

The Ministry of Household Affairs in Nanjing, the Ministry of Officials in Nanjing, the Ministry of Industry in Nanjing, the Ministry of Rites in Nanjing, the Ministry of War in Nanjing, the Ministry of Punishment in Nanjing, the Yushitai in Nanjing, the Cabinet in Nanjing, and other departments all wrote letters from different officials.

This time the formation of the book is much bigger than before, from the first rank to the sixth rank, basically all are in order.

Emperor Chongzhen watched with a gloomy face for a long time, and the good mood brought about by the pregnancy of Concubine Yi and others who entered the palace later was suppressed.

Wouldn't it be good to live well?The fucker jumps out and dies!

Sweeping aside a pile of memorials in resentment, Emperor Chongzhen ordered with red eyes: "Tell Xu Xianchun, Ma Shi, and Cao Huachun to come over!"

Wang Chengen shuddered in his heart, and hurriedly ordered someone to go to Xu Xianchun and the other three, and then persuaded: "The emperor calm down, it's not worth getting angry about these things now."

Emperor Chongzhen gave Wang Chengen a sideways look, and snorted coldly: "Calm down? Look at what these bastards said in the memorial? Don't tell me, you, the eunuch with the palm prints of the chief inspector of ceremonies, don't know what's going on here." thing!"

Seeing that Emperor Chongzhen's anger tended to spread towards him, Wang Chengen hurriedly bowed and said: "The emperor calms down, Wei Guogong must have a way to deal with it, why should the emperor get angry again?"

After a word of persuasion, Wang Chengen didn't know how to persuasion.

According to Da Mingming's system, not only he knew the content of these memorials, but also Xu Hongji, Duke of Wei, Wen Tiren, the chief assistant of the cabinet, all the bigwigs in the cabinet, and many leaders of the factory guards must also know.

In addition to the nonsense that your majesty should take care of the body of ten thousand gold and rule by hanging down, it is vaguely saying that the people in the south of the Yangtze River are declining, and now they are showing signs of collapse. Should your majesty be more relaxed about Jiangnan?

Moreover, it was not just one or two officials who submitted the letter this time. The civil service system in Nanjing's officialdom was included in six out of ten.

If another emperor looked at this matter, he might have compromised—six or seven out of ten officials wrote a letter together, which is already equivalent to forcing the palace.

As long as the emperor doesn't want any turmoil immediately, or if he doesn't want any disharmony between the monarch and his ministers, he may have to compromise with so many officials.

Relying on this trick, these officials successfully settled ten generations of emperors including Renzong, Xuanzong, Yingzong, Xianzong, Xiaozong, Wuzong, Shizong, Muzong, Shenzong, and Xizong.

It is precisely for this reason that the emperor of Ming Dynasty had to push the eunuchs to the front desk to fight with these ministers.

However, there are always winners and losers in things like tearing and forcing, and no one can always win or not lose—and the eunuchs of Daming basically never won.

Even if the eunuchs won, it was basically temporary, and it would not be long before they were suppressed by the counterattack of the civil servants.

It was only in the Chongzhen Dynasty that Emperor Chongzhen relied on the political legacy left by Tianqi and his black-hearted and thick-skinned characteristics to truly grasp the military power and popular support, and achieve the goal of suppressing the civil society.

It’s just that the bastards in the south of the Yangtze River are not dead, and now they plan to form a group to force the palace—Wang Chengen can even foresee that in a few days, the officials in the capital will follow suit, and some people will even jump out to say agree.

But was Emperor Chongzhen the same as other emperors?Is this kind of game of forcing the palace useful to Emperor Chongzhen?

While Wang Chengen was thinking wildly, Xu Xianchun and others hurried into the palace.

Seeing Emperor Chongzhen's gloomy black face that could squeeze out water, Xu Xianchun secretly said badly in his heart.

After the ceremony, Emperor Chongzhen didn't mean to talk nonsense at all, but pointed to the memorial that Wang Chengen had just sorted out on the table and said: "Every one of the people above is counted as one, and I want to know their crimes. "

After finishing speaking, Emperor Chongzhen ordered Wang Chengen again: "Order people to bring the tables and chairs over, let them copy these names for me now, and go back to adjust the files for me, Jinyiwei, East and West Factory, whatever you have Call me here!"

Xu Xianchun bowed and said: "Think twice, Your Majesty, so many ministers are writing together? Why not let me do it?"

With a snap, the teacup in front of Emperor Chongzhen flew towards Xu Xianchun: "What are you? What does it have to do with you? Can't see the real purpose of these bastards or are you pretending to be crazy with me?

I'm telling you, don't play with such fancy things in front of me, and do what I've told you to do well!roll! "

After exiting the palace, Xu Xianchun wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Have you both heard your Majesty's order clearly? I'm going to adjust the staff at Jinyiwei right now. I hope you two will help each other a lot." yes."

Cao Huachun smiled sadly and said: "If you want me to say, you shouldn't have said those nonsense today, it will only annoy His Majesty in vain."

Xu Xianchun said: "What do I want to say? It's just that I want to use my humble body to relieve His Majesty's worries."

Cao Huachun shook his head and said: "No need, Eunuch Wei is now living in Zhongguan Village, isn't he living a good life? Doesn't Your Majesty still have things to reward from time to time?

Let's take care of the errands, Your Majesty doesn't need us to take the place of the dead, and he won't push us out, don't worry. "

After Xu Xianchun hummed, he bowed his hands to Cao Huachun and Ma Shi and said goodbye to each other.

But Ma Shi asked curiously: "Eunuch Cao, what did Lord Xu mean just now?"

Cao Huachun glanced at Ma Shi, and said with a smile: "Sixty-seven out of ten officials in Nanjing have collectively signed the letter, plus officials from the capital city will definitely join in the fun, but it has never happened before.

After Xu Xianchun served as the commander of Jinyiwei for so many years, he did not know how much blood was stained on his hands, and his reputation has long been like you and me, with a strong reputation.

He is thinking of using his own life to cover up the letters of these officials for His Majesty, you idiot. "

Although he repeatedly scolded Xu Xianchun as an idiot, Cao Huachun still said appreciatively: "But, he still underestimated our Majesty, and underestimated those officials too much."

Ma Shi asked suspiciously: "Eunuch Cao, our family comes from the army, so we don't know much about these things, so I hope you can give me some advice?"

Cao Huachun gave Ma Shi a sideways glance, and patiently explained: "During the Zhengde period, Emperor Zhengde was under pressure and drove Liu Jin back behind closed doors, and then there was news that Liu Jin wanted to rebel, and then Liu Jin He was hacked into pieces.

But what happened to Emperor Zhengde later on, don't you know?

When the first emperor was in power, due to folk rumors and the pressure of the ministers, the Hakka family was expelled from the palace. Even Eunuch Wei was not in the palace for a while. What happened afterwards?
