Back to the Ming Dynasty to be a tyrant

Several other internal and external ministers, on the other hand, agreed with their own group.The foreign ministers tended to follow Wen Tiren, while the internal ministers mostly followed Wei Zhongxian.

Chongzhen saw the tendency of the two groups to quarrel again, although he secretly felt that the two groups could not be together, but now was not the time for them to quarrel.

Chongzhen patted the court case and said: "Enough! Don't quarrel!" The few people who were fooled hurriedly pleaded guilty.

Chongzhen's face became a little better, and he said to everyone: "Since Jiannu wants to come to the capital, let them come! I want to meet Huang Taiji in the capital!"

Hearing Chongzhen's words, the two groups stopped arguing and unanimously pointed their spearheads at Chongzhen. Wen Tiren knelt down and played: "Your Majesty, no! Since ancient times, the son of a thousand gold, don't sit in the hall! Your Majesty's body of ten thousand gold, how can you take risks?" Such a big risk? In the opinion of the old minister, let Lin Danhan intercept the Tartars in Mongolia, and at the same time, the Guanning Army will also go east, put pressure on the Tartars, and force the Tartars to retreat!"

Wei Zhongxian also knelt down and said: "The emperor must not do this! It is the incompetence of the old slave that caused the emperor to suffer such a great humiliation. This matter can be done by Guan Ningjun. The emperor must not be so risky!"

Chongzhen said angrily: "I called you here because I had a perfect plan, so you don't need to say more!"

The color slowed down, and Chongzhen said to Cui Chengxiu, Shangshu of the Ministry of War: "Call Sichuan Qin Liangyu and Ma Xianglin to bring white-armed soldiers to Beijing. Let them go around day and night, avoid places, so as not to be noticed by the Tartars. However, they must arrive before the end of the month. Capital!"

Then came a series of commands:

"Order the governor of Denglai and the military preparation office to cooperate with Liu Xingzuo and Mao Wenlong to withdraw the coastal defense for [-] miles. If Liu Xingzuo raises troops to attack, we will only shoot at the sky, and we are not allowed to fight with him!

After the Tartars raised their troops, Jin Yiwei sent someone to inform Lin Danhan to make way for Huang Taiji, and when Huang Taiji came over, he blocked the Tartars' retreat and ambush!I let him come!

In addition, organized by Wen Aiqing and the Ministry of Household Affairs, Dongchang and Jinyiwei fully cooperated to relocate the people around the capital to the city as much as possible, and those who refused to be relocated were forced to relocate!Tell the people, bring money and food, and set everything else on fire!In the future, I will use internal funds to supplement the people!Dongchang and Jinyiwei keep records, and will be dealt with severely if they discover false declarations of family property! "

Then he turned his head and said to the Minister of the Ministry of Industry and the eunuch of the Bureau of Military Warfare: "After you two go back, immediately check all the weapons in the warehouse! If you find that they are unqualified, return them to the furnace immediately and rebuild them! I don't care about your previous bullshit. Son, but this time, if there is a problem with any soldier's weapon on the battlefield, I will not only want your heads, but none of your nine clans will be left!"

After reprimanding the two, the flames turned on Cui Chengxiu, Minister of the Ministry of War, who was known as the No. [-] running dog of the Eunuch Party: "After Cui Aiqing returns, immediately count how many capable soldiers there are in the Beijing Camp and the Fifth Army Supervisor's Mansion! Before the slaves come, gather in the capital in the name of my military parade!"

After arranging everyone properly, Chongzhen said again: "Cao Huachun, investigate the palace. Anyone who dares to communicate with the inside and outside will be killed with a stick! Everything today, if it is exposed and affects my major events, no matter who it is, it will be punished. ! The number of nine clans is less than ten clans!"

After all the officials left the palace, Chongzhen thought, just in time, take this opportunity to collect money first.This matter must be settled first Zhou Guozhang.Thinking of this, Chongzhen said to Wang Cheng'en again: "Send the Kunning Palace to the Queen's place."

No.17 Chapter Jin Yiwei handles affairs, and white soldiers enter Beijing

Chongzhen went to Queen Zhou's place at night. As for how he talked with Queen Zhou, I don't know. According to Queen Zhou's statement: "Since ancient times, when a woman marries and obeys her husband, and a concubine marries into the Tian family, the interests of the Tian family should be the most important. The emperor is embarrassed by something about her natal family, so the emperor can deal with it ruthlessly!"

What happened between the very happy Emperor Chongzhen and the Empress Zhou who was dedicated to the country? Many words are omitted here, which belongs to the indescribable part...

As for the several internal and external ministers who received the order to leave the palace, they suffered from headaches to toes.This time, whether it was the ministers of the Sixth Ministry of the Cabinet or the eunuchs of Wei Zhongxian, the behavior of Emperor Chongzhen allowed them to see the shadows of the founding emperor Zhu Yuanzhang and Chengzu Zhu Di.

Zhu Yuanzhang was cruel and ruthless, and he frequently punished the nine clans. The corrupt people were often stripped of their skins;

Now the Emperor Chongzhen is so bold that he wants to let Jiannu into Beijing and close the door to beat the dogs. If he is a little careless, he will die and the country will be destroyed.

Since everyone's objection was invalid, they could only honestly follow the wishes of Emperor Chongzhen.Now the cabinet is more and more like the cabinet at the beginning of the founding of the country. It is more for the emperor to fill in the gaps.

For Emperor Chongzhen, Ming did not need democracy, let alone a vain monarch like a constitutional monarchy. What Ming needed most was a dictatorial emperor with arbitrariness.As for anyone who dares to oppose him, the factory guard will tear them up like a mad dog.

As for the collusion between inside and outside, making Chongzhen die like the previous emperors is unclear?Chongzhen, who asked Wang Chengen and Fang Zhenghua to secretly reorganize the inner guard factory on the second day of his enthronement, said that everything in the palace is under control, and whoever dares to make trouble will have to kill the whole family!

In the capital and its surrounding areas, the factory guards and the cabinet were in constant motion, which can even be described as jumping around.As the relocation of the area near Beijing proceeds, the factory guards are also gradually moving outwards, striving to relocate the undefended open areas around Beijing except for the places protected by the city wall, all of which are secretly carried out at night, with the village as the unit, etc. When Jiannu came, he burned it all, so that Jiannu could not get supplies on the spot.

Limited to the reputation of the factory guard, even if there are people who don't want to, after smashing it, those who don't want to move will have to move.

However, after walking too much at night, I finally encountered ghosts. When relocating in a village called Zhanggezhuang outside the city, some landlords were unwilling to relocate, so Jinyiwei carried out "forced relocation". With the cries of adults and children, some people finally jumped He came out and stopped Jin Yiwei and his party.

The man who stopped Jin Yiwei had only one eye, but he was handsome, bearded, and mighty. He was dressed in silver armor and held a white wax pole with a bladed hook on the pole. At the bottom of the pole was a The iron ring is frightening to look at.Behind him, there is obviously a marching team, which is boundless at a glance, about tens of thousands of people, all wearing battle jackets and holding white wax pole weapons.

The man saw Jin Yiwei relocating the people at night, so he thought it was the factory guard who came to harm the people again, and angrily said to the leader Xiaoqi: "The factory guard is so bold, the emperor dares to be so rampant at the foot of the emperor, do you have the king's law in your eyes?!"

The little flag sized it up and said to the man: "Aren't you a white soldier? Don't misunderstand, I am waiting for this trip to follow orders and move all the people here to enter the capital. You must not make mistakes, if there is any problem, a certain I took you to find the general banner of my family, and you can ask yourself."

The man pondered for a while, then said to Xiao Qi, "That's very good, please lead the way."

The local Xiaoqi heard this, and took the man to look for the general flag, and the general flag rushed to his superiors, and finally found the commander of Jinyiwei who was stationed here.

The commander knew the matter well, and he and the man checked each other's suitability and found out the identity of the other party. After greeting each other, they said: "This matter was ordered by the upper peak. Recently, the Tatars want to knock on the gate, so all the people will be moved into the city. If If there is a loss, I will also register it and compensate for it later. So General Ma doesn't have to worry about it."

That one-eyed man is Qin Liangyu's son, Ma Xianglin, the major general of the white-armed army, he clasped his fists and saluted after hearing this: "So, Ma is reckless. Ma's trip, I hope it will be kept secret."

The commander said: "Don't worry, General Ma. You wait for the team to follow a certain relocation team. Along the way, someone arranges people to clear the street and go directly to the Beijing camp. After the station is completed, someone will take General Ma there See my lord commander."

Ma Xianglin said happily, "It's so good, I have something to do with you, my lord." Dang even went back and reported to Qin Liangyu.

The villagers and gentry who were relocated saw that Ma Xianglin joined forces with Jinyiwei after he came back, and even helped Jinyiwei carry food and other things.

After the food and valuables were packed away, the little flag leading the team yelled: "Let's go!", and the group went straight to the capital.

After joining several other moving teams, a long line went straight to the Beijing camp.Along the way, Jin Yiwei showed the prestige of Jin Yiwei again. If anyone in the city dared to look at it, he immediately shouted: "Jin Yiwei is doing business, get out!" If someone peeped through the crack of the door, they would probably smash the door to warn.Even though Qin Liangyu and Ma Xianglin were dissatisfied with Jin Yiwei's actions, they knew it was to prevent Jiannu spies from prying eyes, so they kept silent and just hurried on their way.

When they settled down in the Beijing camp and it was almost midnight, the man knew the pros and cons of the matter, and he didn't care about letting Qin Liangyu and others rest, so he took Qin Liangyu and Ma Xianglin straight to the Fusi Yamen in Jinyiwei North Town.

Qin Liangyu and Ma Xianglin didn't know how big the relocation was until they arrived at the Yamen of Fusi in Beizhen. They saw that the clerks, thousands of households, and hundreds of households in the Zhenfusi were in constant communication. The lights were brightly lit, and it was busy all night.

Entering the hall of Beizhen Fusi, there is a person sitting in the middle, it is Tian Ergeng, the commander of the Jinyiwei, and two Jinyiwei colleagues are also sitting below, the three of them are discussing something.

After the commander who brought Qin Liangyu and Ma Xianglin in was notified, he brought the two in, but Tian Ergeng had already stood up from his seat and greeted Qin Liangyu.

After some greetings, Tian Ergeng waved Tongzhi, Qian Shi and others to retreat, leaving only Tian Ergeng, Qin Liangyu, and Ma Xianglin in the entire hall.

Tian Ergeng knew that Emperor Chongzhen attached great importance to the Baigan soldiers, so he made a full posture at the beginning, and said to Qin Liangyu: "This time, Your Majesty ordered the two generals and the Baigan soldiers to enter Beijing, and my spies from Jinyiwei sent them to Liaodong." According to the top-secret information, Jiannu will make a detour to Mongolia at the beginning of next month. It is inconvenient for Tian to say more about the strategy for the extermination of Jiannu that His Majesty has decided. He will bring the two of them into the palace to face the saint after the court ends tomorrow. At that time, the two generals know all about it.”

Chapter 18 Liu Xingzuo rises up

These few days, the court seems to be calm, but in private, it is turbulent and extremely treacherous, making people confused.

First of all, Emperor Chongzhen would occasionally show a strange smile when looking at the courtiers, which made the courtiers below unable to figure it out;

Secondly, all the memorials of Yushi's impeachment of Jinyiwei and Dongchang for disturbing the people were kept in China.

There are also frequent movements in the Beijing camp. The empty pay that was cleared first, and the lack of soldiers due to the empty pay were quickly made up.

And the Weapons Bureau under the Ministry of Industry, the War Bureau of the Internal Supervisory Bureau, and the armory are checking the weapons in stock like crazy. From time to time, it is reported that a certain lord even interrupted his own nephew because the quality is not good enough. Rumors of the legs.

For the old fox who has lived in the imperial court for a long time, even if the news is tightly sealed and there is no relevant news from the cabinet and other ministries, judging from the frequent movements in the capital, it is likely that there is going to be a war.The strange thing is that I didn't hear about where the fight started beforehand. Could it be that the emperor wanted to conquer Liaodong by himself?First there was Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Qizhen, and now there is Zhu Youjian. Why does the emperor of the old Zhu family like this tune?There is no one to worry about!

Chongzhen didn't care what the officials thought, what he wanted was officials who could do things according to their orders, and he didn't need others for the time being; what Ming needed was not democracy and harmony, but iron blood and dictatorship.

When the boring court meeting ended, Chongzhen hurried to the harem.Before going to court, he learned that Qin Liangyu, Ma Xianglin and his wife Zhang Fengyi were already waiting for an audience in the palace.

It was the first time I saw the old general Qin Liangyu in the Nuanxin Palace, I saw her gray hair, but she was meticulously groomed, her face was graceful, and her spirit was bright;

Then look at Ma Xianglin, known as the "little horse super", dressed in silver armor, full of beard, more than seven feet tall, with a tiger back and a wasp waist, ape arms stretched close to his knees, he is really majestic and majestic, although he is one-eyed, But it added a touch of evil spirit out of thin air, making people dare not look at it.Chongzhen secretly said, "What a great general!"

Chongzhen looked at Ma Xianglin's wife again, and saw that she was taller than ordinary women. Although she was not as strong as a strong woman in the army, she had a delicate face. A bit heroic.Even though she couldn't compare to the stunning beauty of Shen Yuluoyan, it still made people feel that this woman was really extraordinary.

Helping up Qin Liangyu and Ma Xianglin, who were kneeling to pay their respects, Chongzhen praised Qin Liangyu: "Good! Good! Good! The sons and daughters of the Ming Dynasty are so ambitious, they don't like red clothes and they love armed forces! You are waiting here, so I don't have to worry about it!"

When Qin Liangyu heard this, he hurriedly bowed and said, "Your Majesty is so honored, I am ashamed and dare not take it!"
