Chapter 870 The Carpenter Emperor 125

Cui Jingrong took Yulinwei's great victory report to find several cabinet ministers, and found that Fang Congzhe and others were as ignorant as himself.It was Ye Xianggao who came forward and summoned the remaining ministers, Zuodu censor, and Gu Ming ministers who stayed in the capital, including Yang Lian.

Then Ye Xianggao read Governor Zhang Zhihou's memorial first, and Cui Jingrong read Du Wenhuan's victory report melodiously.When thinking that His Majesty Du Wenhuan left all the captured horses for the Yulin Guards to equip the cavalry, everyone's faces twitched, thinking in their hearts:

When the emperor left Beijing, he only took half a month's food and grass with him forty thousand troops, but he took a month's food and grass with him when he left Yulinwei. With so much food and grass, where is the emperor going to lead the army?

Wang Yingjiao saw that everyone's expressions were very serious, so he joked: "The emperor has brought enough food and grass for a month. Wherever we go, we don't worry that the army will run out of food and starve the emperor, right? Besides, count the [-] A war horse, the court has made money this time.”

Han Yu followed up without hesitation, "Shangshu Wang, don't count the money because he made a loss. The most important thing now is where is the emperor? When he left Beijing, he said he was going to Dongshengwei to drive away those occupying Tumo. The Mongols in Sichuan, the military report back became the Mongols in Tumochuan, and more than 3 cavalry went to Yulinwei to besiege the emperor. More than 3 cavalry!"

Even though Han Yu had never led an army before, he knew what the 3 Mongolian cavalry meant to the [-] Imperial Guards of the Ming Dynasty.

Wang Yingjiao turned her head to pretend she didn't hear it, and the little girl Han Yu was really uncute.

Ye Xianggao looked at Duke Ying and Duke Ding. At this moment, they were the only ones who might be able to guess a little bit about the emperor's movements.

Duke Ying avoided Ye Xianggao's gaze, Duke Ding coughed lightly and said, "Your Majesty won't tell us where he's going, because he doesn't want anyone who cares to know where he's going?!"

Ding Guogong's tone was doubtful, but the expression on his face firmly showed that his thoughts were just like this.

"Why didn't you let us know?"

Fang Congzhe asked with confidence.

Duke Ding looked at Fang Congzhe as if he was looking at an idiot, and answered him angrily: "Your Majesty said it when he analyzed the reasons for Saarhu's failure. Yang Gao's marching plan was published by the mansion newspaper half a year earlier. Therefore, Jiannu was able to accurately ambush Juniper. Could it be that the mansion is reporting the emperor's whereabouts this time? Who knows?"

Fang Congzhe's face immediately turned red and purple. Salhu's defeat in the battle was a sore in his heart that would never heal, and it was bloody when he touched it.He fell back and forth without falling in one breath.

Fortunately, there is not much space, and the standing is very close.Ye Xianggao who was beside him gave him a pull, and Han Yu reached out and grabbed his arm in time to prevent him from falling to the ground.

Yang Lian rushed over to help Fang Congzhe together with Han Yu.Among the people Huang Kezuan pinched Fang Congzhe hard, Wang Yongguang called Liu Shimin to hurry up and ask the little eunuch to call the imperial doctor, and everyone in the Hall of Mental Cultivation became busy immediately.

Duke Ying looked at the noisy Hall of Mental Cultivation, turned to Duke Ding and said, "Why are you doing this. He is at that level."

"Don't tell me why I am. If Juniper hadn't been ambushed, why would our five-army governor's mansion be so stretched? 10 troops were routed, more than 300 generals died in battle, and more than [-] guns and guns were lost. We lost nearly [-] mules and horses. The mules and horses to deliver supplies to His Majesty for the third time have not yet been fully prepared."

Zhang Wenda saw that Fang Congzhe hadn't come to his senses yet, and the civil servant's inherent clique consciousness prompted him to open his mouth to choke with Ding Guogong.

"The whereabouts of the Son of Heaven are uncertain, but the mules and horses have been assembled, where will the third batch of grain and grass be sent?"

The Duke of England immediately helped the Duke of Ding: "Datong. Send the grain and grass to Datong. No matter how your Majesty changes the itinerary, he will not go to Hanzhong."

Zhou Jiamo saw that Zhang Wenda was confronting the Dukes of the Two Kingdoms, so he stretched out his hand to hold Zhang Wenda to prevent him from arguing with the Dukes of the Two Kingdoms.

"The most important thing now is to send people to Yulinwei quickly, and ask Zhang Zhihou and Du Wenhuan where the emperor is going. The rest of the supply will also be sent to Datong with mules and horses."

Wang Yingjiao let out a long sigh, "It was originally planned that the mules and horses that came with the emperor would carry the third batch of grain and grass there after returning to Beijing. Alas, the plan has been disrupted now—"

The British official was displeased that the lack of mules and horses was being pushed to the responsibility of the emperor, so he interrupted Wang Yingjiao and said: "If it wasn't for the loss of too many mules and horses in Sarhu, how could the mules and horses in the capital be so nervous?!

Regardless of whether His Majesty has received a month's supply of food and grass from Yulinwei, the shells that should be sent in the third batch still have to be sent.Don't wait for Yulin Wei's answer, send it to Datong Mansion as scheduled.His Majesty will contact Datong Mansion. "

The words of the British public are choking, but they are very local.But what he said next sent chills down the spine of the courtiers in the room.

"The Son of Heaven brought only 3 troops. After the Yulin Guards were cut off in this battle, the number of forbidden troops around them was only more than [-]. If there were not enough shells, the old example of Yingzong would be a precedent."

Zhou Jiamo immediately turned his face, ignoring that the British Duke and himself had the same goal of sending supplies to Datong first, pointed at the British Duke's nose and scolded, "British Duke, what dirty thoughts are you thinking? Why can't you think that His Majesty has a little How are you, son? Even if you don’t want to marry a daughter, you don’t have to curse the Son of Heaven.”

Zhou Jiamo has served three generations of kings, but only from the body of Emperor Tianqi, can he feel the grace of Mingjun, feel that his efforts will not be trampled on, and see the initial results of all his efforts.How frustrated I was at the time when I was returned by the emperor again and again to fill the six servants, how happy I am now.He is even more beautiful when he sees that the six powerful ministers who have been supplemented almost neatly after repeated consideration have all played irreplaceable roles in various important positions one after another.

He has seen that all cultivated fields are taxed, all merchants and mines are also subject to mandatory taxes, and the initial effect of people recuperating for a year.In his heart, he has always hoped that he can live a long life, that he can watch the young man he escorted to the throne of God, and that Daming can restore Zhang Taiyue's vitality before his death.

Anyone who wants to say that the emperor is not good, or miss a sentence or a half of unlucky words, is stepping on his painful feet and breaking his taboo.In an instant, he can change from a stable old man of seven or eighty years old to a hot-blooded young man of seventeen or eighteen who wants to fight.

In an instant, two camps stood in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Duke Dingguo desperately grabbed Duke Yingying who was aroused and wanted to quarrel with Zhou Jiamo, and kept saying, "Be careful to get him overwhelmed with anger. He is not much better than Fang Shoufu. It depends on him to stabilize the court." Bureau."

He looked at Cui Jingrong and Li Banghua again.Although these two belonged to the Ministry of War, they were also from Jinshi background and belonged to the group of civil servants.

Outnumbered.

So he turned his eyes to shift the direction of the debate: "Could it be that someone wants to tell the world about the emperor's great victory in Yulin, so that the whereabouts of the emperor will be known by the Tatars?"

Zhou Jiamo continued to yell like a fighting cock, but fortunately Huang Kezuan was clear-headed, stepped forward to hug him, grabbed his hand and shook it vigorously.

"Mingqing, Mingqing, first think about how you can get enough mules and horses to send cannonballs to Datong. The emperor will definitely use a lot of cannonballs in Yulinwei."

Ye Xianggao narrowed his eyes at the British Duke, "Yes, yes, let's gather enough horses and mules to send shells to Datong."

The Duke of England never thought that Zhou Jiamo's madness would be aroused by his own words. Now that the civil servants were divided, Huang Kezuan and Ye Xianggao were all facing him, so he stopped arguing with Zhou Jiamo, and sat down resentfully, shaking his sleeves and refusing to speak.

Fang Congzhe finally woke up faintly before the imperial physician came.It took him a while to gather his mind from the slack-eyed state.

"The old man will submit his official post now."

Zhang Wenda then said: "Where is the emperor? Where do you send your papers for official appointment? Don't you wait for the emperor to criticize you, 'If you want to use the cabinet to govern, you want to put down the pick?'"

Fang Congzhe's cloudy old eyes immediately became moist. He was silent for a while, then turned his head and shook his fingers, and said to Ye Xianggao, "Jinqing, you shouldn't have returned to your hometown ten years ago."

Ye Xianggao understood that what Fang Congzhe said was that he should not have recommended him in front of Shenzong ten years ago, and should not have brought him to the cabinet as a backup.But the recommendation of Fang Congzhe at that time was also the result of a compromise between the various forces in the court.Seeing that Fang Congzhe was so sad, Ye Xianggao was filled with guilt, and he patted Fang Congzhe on the back to comfort him.

"Brother Zhonghan, it's my fault. You should calm down first. Sigh. Let's pretend that we haven't seen this brochure and battle report. Every family in the capital has mules and horses. If five out of one is not enough, three out of three One, it's important to send shells to the emperor first.

In addition, the supplies of Yulinwei depended on the capital. The emperor took a month's grain and grass from Yulinwei. "

Wu Jinzhong was dumbfounded when he saw the gold medal in front of him. This was his confidant servant who met the emperor's army head-on. More than a dozen people were taken to the emperor's camp, interrogated to the bottom, and then escorted by a group of imperial soldiers. When he came back, the hundred households of the Imperial Army still held the emperor's gold medal and asked him for Du Hongyu and Li Chengzuo, and sent him to the camp to see him.

He felt like he was dreaming.Rubbing his eyes, rubbing his eyes again, the emperor's gold medal is still in front of him.

The emperor really came to Ningxia town.

This is really killing me.

He asked Du Hongyu and Li Chengzuo to come over, bent over and said with a smile: "Master Hou, Kaizhi, this is my fault. I really didn't expect the emperor to come to Ningxia."

Du Hongyu hurriedly stepped forward to support Wu Jinzhong.

"Uncle Shi, you are an elder, it's strange that my nephew only brought the emperor's oral order, and didn't ask the emperor for an imperial edict."

Li Chengzuo saw Du Hongyu's appearance, the stinky face of being locked up for a day and a night, and smiled in front of him that was uglier than crying.

"Don't blame Zongbing Wu, it's because the two of us are too young. The Marquis of Xining went to Yulinwei to deliver the decree, and Zongbing Du believed it."

Wu Jinzhong knew that the Marquis of Fengcheng was dissatisfied with being placed under house arrest, so he followed his words: "If your father, the old Marquis of Fengcheng, came to pass on oral instructions, it would be different."

Li Chengzuo's mouth was blocked, he blinked and couldn't speak.

Du Hongyu hurriedly smoothed things over.

"Uncle Shi is right, we are a little younger. In another 20 years, the civil servants and military generals of the Manchu Dynasty will know what kind of people we are, and we will not be questioned even if we falsely pass on the holy edict."

Wu Jinzhong slapped Du Hongyu in a slap in the face, "I dare to spit out anything. Let's go, and go to see the emperor to receive punishment. I will take everyone who knows that the emperor is coming, and the news will be leaked."
