Chapter 521: Wang Zhizheng is building the city of Mongolia

Wang Zhizheng Chahar won a great victory, the military strength of the Ming Empire was pushed to its peak, Emperor Chongzhen never thought that Zhongxing was such a mess, it turned out to be so casual!

But he didn't expect that among them, Wang Zhizheng, Hong Chengchou, Yang He, Wu Sangui, Sun Chengzong, Zhang Fengqin, Wu Xingfang, Zhang Pu and others worked hard and went through a lot of hardships to reach this situation.

Emperor Chongzhen was suddenly full of confidence, he sat in the court very confidently, and felt for the first time the treatment he should receive as an emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

After receiving the congratulations from the ministers, Emperor Chongzhen said: "Since I became the emperor, the situation of the country has been very worrisome, internal and external troubles, natural and man-made disasters are frequent, the people's lives are in dire straits, the society is shaken, and the program is often corrupted, and my heart is very painful! Since I implemented the commercial tax reform, trained a new army, and sent the king of Saibei to repair the border defense and build a defense line, one great victory after another, and the fight was very happy! It is also difficult for the Jianzhou Emperor Taiji to plunder the Guannei! I am very relieved!"

The ministers congratulated again.

Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said: "Although the border fortress is temporarily stable, the situation has still not reached the time when the world is peaceful.

Wen Tiren, the first assistant of the cabinet, came out and said: "The emperor must be too worried, although the situation at the border is tight now, and the people in northern Shaanxi are in turmoil one after another, but with the emperor's grand plan and vision, and the concerted efforts of all the princes, we will definitely be able to exterminate Jianzhou, quell the civil unrest, and reorganize the mountains and rivers!"

Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said: "What Aiqing said is exactly what I want to say, and now I can make military progress, thanks to the concerted efforts of all Aiqing." The king's contribution is indispensable, and the princes in the court are also indestructible! I have drawn up a holy decree to seal and reward the soldiers at the border gates!"

So he beckoned, and Wang Chengen hurriedly took out the holy decree and read:

The prince of Zheng Guo was rewarded with 10,000 taels of silver.

Counselor Jiang Nai, a reward of five thousand taels.

The king of the prison army was rewarded with five thousand taels.

Wu Sangui, the chief soldier, was rewarded with three thousand taels, and waited for Xibo.

The general soldier Wang Zhiqi was rewarded with three thousand taels and sealed the border uncle.

The chief soldier Zuo Liangyu was rewarded with three thousand taels and sealed the North Bo.

The general soldier Huang Zongxi was rewarded with three thousand taels and sealed the North Bo.

The old man of the cabinet was Wen Tiren, and he was rewarded with 10,000 taels and was named Marquis.

Wu Xingfang, the old cabinet minister, rewarded 5,000 taels and sealed the Marquis of Anping.

Zhou Yanru, the elder of the cabinet, rewarded 5,000 taels and sealed the Pinghou.

The cabinet elder Cheng Yuanke rewarded 5,000 taels of Puhou

Chin this.

After thinking about it, Wu Xingfang glanced at Wen Tiren with some displeasure, who knew that Wen Tiren actually stood up first and said: "Enlighten the saint, how can Wen Tiren be virtuous, and he is uneasy to receive such a reward......

Chongzhen smiled slightly and said: "Pavilion Elder, during this period of time, you have bothered to coordinate the grain and grass, and you are fighting with the army, and you have also made great achievements, and you should be rewarded." ”

Wen Tiren hurriedly said: "Weichen, please move the reward to Wang Zhizheng, Zheng Guogong has worked hard this time, and the reward should be increased!"

Emperor Chongzhen's face suddenly became a smile and froze on his face, and his muscles twitched a few times unconsciously.

Wu Xingfang looked bad, and said in his heart: "What is this guy singing?" At this time, Wang An of Chongguo hurriedly knelt down and said: "Please take back the emperor's order, the reason why this battle was a complete victory is that the soldiers in front fought bloodily, and secondly, the cabinet is in the middle of the dispatch, in addition to the emperor's heavenly might, it is the credit of the soldiers and the cabinet, how can Wang Zhizheng receive this reward?"

Chongzhen's smile continued to spread all over his face: "Uncle is too worried, Wang Zhizheng is a marshal, of course, he has the greatest credit!

Wu Xingfang thought to himself: "It's still the father of the family who reacts quickly, Wen Tiren, the traitor, is going to put Wang Zhizheng on the stove to roast it...... so he quickly knelt down and said: "Wang Zhizheng is already meritorious, but the soldiers are even more meritorious, Weichen suggested that all the soldiers who participated in the war be rewarded with ten taels of silver!"

"Ten taels?!" Wen Tiren turned to stare at Wu Xingfang and asked: "Do you know that one person has ten taels, and the sixty thousand soldiers who participated in the war are six hundred thousand taels, and now that the treasury is tight, where can so many silver taels be freed up." Hehe, if you want a reward, let Zheng Guogong ask for money from Chahar to reward that!"

Wu Xingfang thought to himself: Wen Tiren is really vicious this month, this is to bring up the matter of Wang Zhizheng's robbery of Mongolia?

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "What is 600,000 taels? I took out 600,000 taels from my private treasury and rewarded the soldiers ahead!"

When Chongzhen said this, Wen Tiren's face was a little unbearable, and he said with a somewhat embarrassed face: "Your Majesty, Weichen is not saying that he can't take out 600,000 taels, it's just that Wang Zhizheng has a way to collect money in Mongolia, and he doesn't need to use the emperor's private treasury!"

Wu Xingfang couldn't hold back any longer, turned to stare at Wen Tiren and sneered: "At that time, when Wang Zhizheng sent troops from Xianbeilia Fort to pursue Mang Gurtai in Jianzhou, on behalf of the cabinet, you said that you couldn't take out the silver to make Wang Zhizheng pursue, Wang Zhizheng's soldiers and horses chased to Chahar, and there was not a penny, how can you let the soldiers live if you don't rob Mongolia? In this way, Wang Zhizheng is looting, you play the emperor, Wang Zhizheng is tied up with ropes, and he will be punished by the Beijing master!"

Emperor Chongzhen listened to Wu Xingfang's words, and was originally angry at Wang Zhizheng's plundering of Mongolia, but suddenly it dissipated again, yes, when Wang Zhizheng's food and salary were stopped, Wen Tiren advocated it, and it was I who ordered not to provide military rations! Now it seems that he is really guilty, and the sin is bowing!

So Emperor Chongzhen said loudly: "Wu Ge Lao, Wen Ge Lao did advocate not to pursue Mang Gurtai, so he cut off Wang Zhizheng's grain and grass, which is also his responsibility, since I talked about this matter today, then I will express my position, I also used the seal, and I made an edict against myself!"

As soon as Emperor Chongzhen's words fell, Wen Tiren stared at Wu Xingfang angrily and said, "Lord Wu is too much, you actually forced the emperor to make an edict against himself?!"

Zhou Yanru also scolded sharply: "Wu Xingfang, your sin is unforgivable! The emperor's decision naturally has a deep meaning, why do you force the emperor to make an edict against himself? Do you only know that Wang Zhi is your son and daughter, and you don't know that the emperor is your master?!"

At this time, Shen Shaoxian, who was speechless, suddenly turned around and stared at Zhou Yanru and sneered: "Okay, you Zhou Yanru, Wu Ge Lao just said a word, you actually fabricated charges like this, the emperor ordered the arrest of Wang Zhizheng, that was the emperor's decision, what face do you have to draw conclusions instead of the emperor." !?”

Zhou Yanru was about to be distinguished, and Emperor Chongzhen Long Yan was furious and slapped the chapter of the table case: "Shut up for me! I made an edict against myself, no one forced it, this is my attitude, Wen Tiren is an advocate, and he will be punished for three months!"
