Super Smuggling System

In addition to working hard in Jinyiwei, since Sun Chengzong was suggested to be used as the governor of Liaodong, the imperial court has not stopped the military pay for Liaodong.

From the time when the apocalypse passed away to the first year of Chongzhen, the Liaodong frontier defense presided over by Sun Chengzong has been safe and sound. Why did Jin Yiwei suddenly send him the Liaodong battle report today.

Looking at the contents of the memorial with doubts, after seeing the information Jin Yiwei presented to him, he closed the memorial and placed it on the dragon case, closing his eyes slightly.

Seeing this situation, Wei Zhongxian, who stood with his hands hanging aside, asked in a low voice, "Lord, what trouble is there in Liaodong?"

Li Mu turned a deaf ear to Wei Zhongxian's concern, and waited for a while before opening his eyes and said: "Wei Gong, go and see if there is any battle report from Liaodong in the Ministry of War. If there is, tell the Queen Mother that you need to read it, and bring it back."

"Old slave understands." Hearing Li Mu's order, Wei Zhongxian knew that something must have happened to the Liaodong frontier defense, so he didn't dare to stay any longer, and after bowing and leaving, he quickly left the Humble Administrator's Hall and went to the Ministry of War.

After Wei Zhongxian left, Li Mu swept to the Yingwei standing under the dragon case, waited for a long time and ordered: "The Yingwei will record the order."

"No." The Yingwei standing under the dragon case replied in a deep voice.

As for whether this eagle guard is suitable for recording orders, Li Mu can guarantee that the [-] eagle guards in the palace are the best messengers, and they are also his most trusted direct subordinates in Jinyiwei.

Looking outside the main hall, Li Mu slowly ordered: "The first order is to order the northern governor who is in charge of disaster relief in Shaanxi to allocate 100 million dans of grain to Liaodong. For safekeeping, don't allocate it to the Liaodong Frontier Defense Force for the time being."

"The second order, the former Liaodong Jinyiwei deploys all the Jinyiwei. After receiving the order, it will be fully integrated immediately to form the Northeast Governor's Division. After the formation, the Northeast Governor's Division will be directly under the management of the Jinyiwei Command and Envoy Division."

Speaking here, Li Mu paused, and then ordered: "Send one hundred Eagle Guards who are supervising the disaster relief of the Northern Governor's Division in Shaanxi to escort the food to Liaodong. It is the power of the internal inspection of the Northeast Governor's Department, and can take action to protect the Northeast Governor's Jinyiwei personnel when necessary."

After finishing speaking, Li Mu lowered his head and thought for a while to see if there was anything missing. After pondering for a long time, these orders should be enough before seeing the detailed battle report from the Ministry of War.

Just at this moment, Wei Zhongxian quickly entered the Humble Administrator's Hall, Li Mu waved his hand and said, "Go down."

"Promise." After the Yingwei finished recording the order, he bowed and brushed past Wei Zhongxian, exited the Humble Administrator's Hall, and passed on the order Li Mu had mentioned.

Wei Zhongxian didn't care about slight negligence towards these guards in Jinyi and Yingwei. When they passed by, he smiled slightly in return.

As a person who survived by observing words and demeanor, Wei Zhongxian understood the status of these eagle guards in Li Mu's heart very well. It can be said that it was more important than his status.

Knowing this, when Wei Zhongxian faced the Ying Guards in the palace, he never ignored them in the slightest, unlike how he casually scolded the maids and eunuchs who served people in the palace.

With a smile on his face, Wei Zhongxian took the Liaodong memorial that he had just taken from the Ministry of War, held it to Li Mu with both hands and said, "Lord, this is the battle report that the Ministry of War just received from the Liaodong frontier defense."

"Yeah." Li Mu reached out and took the battle report from the Ministry of War, opened it and glanced at it. The content was almost the same as the battle report submitted by Jin Yiwei. The extra content was a detailed introduction to the battle that took place on the Liaodong frontier defense.

After reading it, Li Mu had a general understanding of Liaodong's frontier defense. He closed the war report of the Ministry of War on Liaodong and told Wei Zhongxian, "Notify the Ministry of War and the cabinet. Tomorrow, I will come to the Humble Administrator's Hall to discuss the small court meeting. I will tell the Queen Mother to listen to it." There is a resolution on the Liaodong War."

"The old slave understands." Wei Zhongxian bowed to accept the order.

As for why the small court meeting was held tomorrow instead of today, after all, the battle in the Liaodong border must have something to do with Jurchen, and Jurchen was one of the main reasons for the demise of the Ming Dynasty at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

If Li Mu wants to save Daming, he must always pay attention to the movements of the Jurchen, and cannot relax in any way, at least not ignoring the existence of the Jurchen clan.

In this way, all affairs related to the Jurchen clan should be the most important thing.

Of course, for the original Ming Dynasty, it would indeed be a bit tricky to meet a Jurchen who claims to be less than ten thousand and invincible.

It's just that the evaluation of Jurchen was in the past, not the Ming Dynasty under Li Mu's control.

Besides, judging from the battle report submitted by Jin Yiwei, the war in Liaodong has subsided. Combined with the merits of the Liaodong frontier defense sent to the Ministry of War, at least there is no war in Liaodong now.

Li Mu didn't have to rush to hold a small court meeting just because of this trivial matter, that would be too much for the Jurchen clan, as a man who knows how to love women, he wouldn't bother Zhang Yan who was hurt so much.

Tomorrow's Xiaochao meeting Li Mu has another purpose.

Chapter 255 Abandoned Emperor's Conjecture

Wei Zhongxian was asked to inform the Ministry of War and the cabinet about tomorrow's small court meeting, so Li Mu left the Humble Administrator's Hall and wanted to go back to Renshou Palace to see if Zhang Yan was awake.

I don't want to, but on the way, I ran into Princess Zhou and her party who were returning from a walk in the Palace Garden.

Concubine Zhou, who was carrying Zhu Cihong to the West Nuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace, saw Li Mu approaching, she was taken aback for a moment, and then said with a smiling Wanfu: "Commander Li, I didn't expect to meet here, the emperor's sister-in-law is not around ?"

After speaking, he looked around, as if to see if Zhang Yan was nearby.

"Princess Zhou Jin'an, the queen mother felt lack of body shortly after leaving the palace, so she went back to Renshou Palace to rest."

Li Mu didn't expect to meet Princess Zhou here, it looked like he had just returned from a walk in the Palace Garden.

When Princess Zhou heard that Zhang Yan had returned to Renshou Palace earlier, she hesitated for a while, and carefully handed Zhu Cihong, who was sleeping in her arms, to a palace maid, and softly instructed: "You should take your majesty back to the palace first, and be careful on the way. Don't wake Your Majesty."

The maid nodded her head lightly to express her understanding. Under the watchful eyes of Princess Zhou, she walked towards the West Nuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace. On the way, she wanted to salute Li Mu, but he stopped him with a wave. Wake up a sleeping child.

Seeing the maids leaving, Li Mu stood there and looked at Princess Zhou. He knew that Princess Zhou must have something to say by asking the maid to take Zhu Cihong back first.

Sure enough, after seeing the maids walking away, Princess Zhou said to Li Mu with a faint smile on her face, "Can Commander Li compensate me for walking away?"

Without waiting for Li Mu to nod his head in agreement, Princess Zhou rolled her hair at the temples with a smile, and then walked towards the opposite direction of Renshou Palace, not caring whether he would follow behind her or not.

Looking at Princess Zhou who was walking away alone, Li Mu wanted to turn around and leave, but when his eyes caught sight of the slightly thin delicate body, he shook his head softly, sighed softly, and then followed.

No matter what, Li Mu always feels a little guilty for letting such a beautiful woman who is less than 20 years old be a widow, especially if he is the chief culprit.

Without his existence, Princess Zhou would at least have a complete family, and would still be the Empress of Ming Dynasty, enjoying the respect of her mother in the world.

It won't be like now, where only one Zhu Cihong was born, but she was also deprived of the qualifications to be a mother.

It has to be said that Princess Zhou is a tragedy that Li Mu single-handedly directed, a tragedy that he didn't want to see, and a tragedy that he wanted to redeem.

Maybe Princess Zhou knew that Li Mu was following, or she didn't know, so she walked forward slowly, looked at the front and said softly: "Commander Li, do you think the throne is really important? Because of the throne, I I have lost the qualification to be a mother to Cihong, and indirectly lost the only child."

Li Mu, who was behind, heard what Princess Zhou said, and didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only follow behind silently.

Concubine Zhou didn't seem to be annoyed when she didn't get a response, and continued, "I don't know how long Cihong can sit as the emperor, maybe a few years, maybe only today."

Ever since she learned that the new emperor had sinned against her due to the severe drought in Shaanxi, Princess Zhou had this idea that Zhu Cihong's throne might not be guaranteed, otherwise the court would not ask a baby emperor to bear this responsibility.

What a big joke.

There was a severe drought in Shaanxi, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty had no choice but to push all the crimes on a child, a child who could not speak clearly.

Princess Zhou's words stunned Li Mu, who was following behind, and stepped forward to ask, "Did someone tell you something, Princess Zhou? Or was that maid talking too much?"

I really didn't expect that Princess Zhou would conjecture like this when talking to him alone, and all of Princess Zhou's words revealed that she was guessing the meaning of the court's abolition of the emperor, which had to be said to surprise Li Mu.

"No one told me, and no court lady dared to tell me that, I guessed it myself." Zhou Wangfei looked into Li Mu's eyes and shook her head and asked back.

"Commander Li, do you think anyone in the palace dares to tell me that?"

Li Mu was taken aback by Princess Zhou's rhetorical question, and then said lightly: "Since no one is talking nonsense, then stop thinking about it, Zhu Cihong has already ascended the throne as the emperor of Ming Dynasty, then he will be the master of this country, at least Daming exists When the time comes, he will be the emperor."

Although he didn't reveal what he meant by the abolished emperor, Li Mu's words were almost the same as talking about the abolished emperor, it depends on whether Princess Zhou can hear it or not.

"Can Commander Li promise me one thing?" Princess Zhou was a little emotional, and took out the silk handkerchief in her arms to wipe away her tears.
