Of course, for some serious or even small-scale "civil uprisings", the local garrisons have to take action to suppress and deter Xiaoxiao.

The division of land in the three northern provinces was vigorous and vigorous, causing an unknown number of disturbances, and all kinds of criticisms were raging.

These criticisms are not only among the people, but also in the court.

As the main executive agency of this land division operation, the Ministry of Household Affairs is under especially great pressure.In particular, all kinds of problems that occurred were blamed on the Ministry of Household Affairs and Shangshu Li Banghua.

In less than a year, Li Banghua's hair turned gray, and he often went out for ten days in the yamen of the household department, and the lights were kept on all night.

House servant Lou Qing came in, looked at Li Banghua's haggard appearance, sighed, and said, "My lord, it's not an option to go on like this, you have to combine work and rest, or your body will collapse."

Li Banghua looked up at him, his face was exhausted, his eyes were bloodshot, and he said, "What happened again?"

Lou Qing handed over a letter, which was of the secret type, and said: "A secret letter from the Governor's Council said that someone from the Governor's Council colluded with the surveying team and concealed three reports in the three provinces of Beizhili, Shandong, and Shanxi. A thousand hectares of fertile land."

Li Banghua has accumulated countless hostility these days. He heard the words without looking at them, and directly said murderously: "Transfer it to the Anti-Corruption Bureau and the Law Enforcement Bureau. If necessary, kill another batch!"

Lou Qing smiled wryly, and said: "It's okay for the Anti-Corruption Bureau to say that they only arrest people. When they go to the Dali Temple, there is always a saying that can stop the outsiders. Wang Zhou is already the target of public criticism. I don't know how many people want to send him away. Go to prison, if you kill him again, I am afraid that our court will not be able to suppress it."

Li Banghua waved his hand and said: "He is doing such dirty things, so there is no need to think so much. There are so many things that come up, it is impossible to investigate them one by one in detail, and one size fits all. Anyone who dares to disobey advice and reach out will be punished." The important thing is that there is no chance for them to regret it!"

Lou Qing could only nod his head, and then said: "The cabinet is preparing a set of land distribution plans and supporting laws and regulations. The relevant institutions may be presided over by Mr. Zhou Ge to lead the various institutions."

A "Qingtian Special Team" is obviously not enough to deal with the current situation. The cabinet needs to concentrate on dealing with it, and it needs to integrate the human and material resources of various departments.

Li Banghua was not surprised. He took a sip of strong tea and said, "Well, I will go to the cabinet meeting in the evening. You sort out the recent problems and how to deal with them. I will summarize and report them to the meeting and focus on promoting them."

Lou Qing responded, looked at Li Banghua's expression, and persuaded him: "My lord, you should pay attention to rest, I heard that Tao Shilang of the Ministry of Officials has fallen ill, and the imperial doctor said that he is still very sick and needs to rest for a month. "

Li Banghua is not young, so if he continues like this, sooner or later he will not be able to hold on.

Li Banghua picked up the pen and wrote something, without raising his head, he said: "There are so many things to do, how can I have the mind to rest, I heard that the emperor didn't sleep a few times in a few months."

In terms of desperation, the number one in the Ming Dynasty is His Majesty the Emperor of the Qianqing Palace. These years have been almost day and night.

Lou Qing gave a wry smile, without any further persuasion, raised her hand and turned to go out.

The cabinet building was brightly lit, and Sun Chuanting and other cabinet ministers, ministers of various ministries, and officials of some related agencies held meetings all night.

The Dongnuang Pavilion of Qianqing Palace has not turned off the lights, and Zhu Xu is deliberating various proposals sent by the cabinet, not only reading, but also pondering and revising.

Standing not far away, Liu Shimin had already refilled his tea several times. Looking at Zhu Xu's bowed waist, he frowned. He didn't know how to persuade him. He thought to himself that he had to go to Kunning Palace tomorrow, please. The queen empress came to persuade.

Until the sky was getting brighter, Zhu Xu still had no intention of resting. He took a sip of tea and warm wine, and continued to read and write.

At this time, a carrier pigeon suddenly flew into the palace, and the inner eunuch sent it to the translation room, and then it was quickly sent to Liu Shimin.

Liu Shimin glanced hastily, his expression changed drastically, and he sent it to Zhu Xu.

Zhu Xu put down the pen, took it over and glanced at it, his eyes flashed sharply.

This secret letter was sent by the Military Intelligence Department, and the content is: Dorgon has secretly left Edo, and his whereabouts are unknown!

Zhu Xu put down the letter, leaned on the chair, closed his eyes, and rubbed his temples.

Dorgon is a heart disease of the Ming government and the public. The Ministry of War has been trying to restrict him, and some people even want to question him.Sun Chuanting and others also tended to think this way, but they didn't express it because of Zhu Xu's introduction.

As Dorgon has continued to grow in Japan in the past few years, the ruling and opposition parties have more worries and louder voices.

If anyone fears Dorgon the most, it's not Zhang Guowei or Sun Chuanting, but Zhu Xu, but he has enough confidence to control Dorgon!

Judging from this secret report, Dorgon, who has been keeping a low profile for several years, can't bear it any longer.

Zhu Xu rubbed his head, cleared his mind for a while, and said in a flat tone: "Decree to Dorgon, first, order him to select 30 elites, send them to Taiwan, hand them over to Xiong Wencan for training, and form a Suihai Fleet. Second, order him to call up all the troops trained in these years, gather [-] troops within half a year, send [-] to Vladivostok, [-] to Gansu Town, and [-] to Phnom Penh. Tokugawa Akihide will take over. Fourth, Dorgon is required to quell the Japanese rebellion as soon as possible, and pay taxes as scheduled next year. Fifth, the recruit training camp cannot stop, and continue to recruit and train, waiting for the imperial court to order."

Liu Shimin wrote down one by one, his face was expressionless, but his heart was clear. If Dorgon had a different heart after these several imperial decrees, he would be hard to hold back.

It's just that if Dorgon really rebelled, and the imperial court is simply unable to conquer the Wa country again, what should it do?

Liu Shimin didn't say much, turned around and ordered someone to send it to the cabinet's imperial court.

The Cabinet is in charge of the Cabinet. Once it is drafted, the Cabinet must know, and the cabinet's reaction may already be predictable.

Sure enough, in the early morning of the next day, Sun Chuanting, who had not left the classroom, looked at the several imperial edicts passed on, frowned, fell silent for a moment, then got up and walked into the Qianqing Palace.

Chapter 1533

Sun Chuanting looked at Zhu Xu who looked more tired than him, and swallowed back the words on his lips.

Zhu Xu could guess it, stood up with a smile, and said, "Let's go, have something to eat with me."

Sun Chuanting responded, the emperor in front of him always makes people ignore his age.

The two sat facing each other in Ruantao, and they ate appetizing porridge and side dishes, which were slightly salty.

Sun Chuanting couldn't eat after a few mouthfuls, and said, "Your Majesty, I think it's too early to test Dorgon at this time, if two years later, I can lure him to the capital to be executed with a little trick. "

What Sun Chuanting said was that after the "New Deal" was largely completed, at that time the whole Ming Dynasty not only had energy, but also ability, so it was inevitable that Dorgon would not obediently submit.

Zhu Xu took a sip of porridge, but he didn't have any appetite, put down his chopsticks, and said, "I know what you mean, but there is news from the Military Intelligence Department that Dorgon has left Edo, whereabouts are unknown, and whereabouts are mysterious."

Sun Chuanting's face changed suddenly, and he immediately became deep in thought.

Dorgon basically controlled most of the Japanese country, and the recruit training camp was allowed by the court. Over the years, he has vigorously recruited soldiers. 30 soldiers are no problem, but secretly, no one knows how many there are.

Now that Dorgon is leaving Edo, where is he going and what is he going to do?

With so many troops in his hands, doing anything casually can cause a headache for Daming, who has no time to spare and his national strength is extremely weak, and it is difficult to check and balance.

Sun Chuanting thought for a while, and said: "Your Majesty, I still feel that it is a bit risky. Dorgon has endured it for so many years. Once it is launched, it must be a big deal. We still need to prepare early."

Zhu Xu wiped his mouth, and said with a light smile: "Don't worry so much, let alone we have arranged so many things in Japan, even if we don't do anything, I believe that Dorgon doesn't have the guts to oppose me! "

Sun Chuanting was startled for a moment, but immediately understood.

In the entire Ming Dynasty, except for those tender-headed youths who don't know how to live or die, who dares to really rebel, the higher the position, the more they understand the horror of Qianqing Palace!

For so many years, he has always been relentless. Whoever opposes him will end well?

Sun Chuanting's worried mood suddenly eased, and said: "The minister will focus on the reform, and leave these matters to Marshal Qin to worry about."

Zhu Xu leaned on the chair, nodded, and then said: "There are so many disturbances outside, all kinds of strange things, what we have to do is to calm down, do things well, and do things in a down-to-earth manner. For the voices outside, listen rationally and look dialectically. Don't be disturbed."

Sun Chuanting's current reputation is mixed, and opposition is raging. The entire cabinet seems to be in turmoil, and it may fall at any time.

Sun Chuanting seemed unaware of this, and said, "Yes, I understand."

Zhu Xu looked at him, was silent for a moment, and said: "I heard that the people from the Political Yuan have made a lot of trouble recently?"
