Chapter 999: The Emperor of the Two Blades

The convoy turned from Dingfu Street to Deshengmen Street and then went south along the Huangchenggen road, Chang Yu seemed to be smiling in the carriage, and Xu Yunzhen, the Duke of Dingguo, had an indescribable expression: "Chang Gonggong is so good at this time wandering the streets?" ”

"You guess" Chang Yu smiled, Xu Yunzhen just couldn't see his harmless smile, pretending to be your sister's innocence, selling your sister's Meng, if it was someone else, he would have slapped it earlier, I guess your uncle.

"Dongchang has always acted out of the blue, and the old man really can't guess it" Xu Yunzhen couldn't bear the disgust in his heart and smiled slightly, but everyone could hear the sarcasm in his words.

Chang Yu didn't care, shrugged: "The long night is long and unintentionally sleeping, walking to the vicinity of the Dingguo Mansion, seeing the laughter and laughter in the wall, curious, I climbed over the wall, and listened to the half-night just came out for a while, hehe, just now our family thought that the grandfather of the country was chasing it, and the scared people were careful of the liver puff and puff!" ”

Holding the grass, Xu Yunzhen was disgusted and really wanted to kick it down, but after all, he didn't have the guts, this little eunuch has been in the limelight recently, and the government and the opposition have all praised you, even when he heard that the Ming army had won many victories, he had to admire his extraordinary achievements in military affairs.

is such a big celebrity, and he is also a big man in Dongchang, if he really steps down, I am afraid that even the prince of the country will not be good.

Yes, this is a bad luck, it's best to stay away.

But the little eunuch is cheap, if you don't provoke him, he will have to tease you, looking at Xu Yunzhen, who rolled his eyes and didn't want to pay attention to him, he said softly: "Grandpa Guo, there is a big business that is very profitable, are you interested in joining the gang?" ”。

Xu Yunzhen pursed his lips: "With such a good thing, can it be the turn of the old man?" Well, the old man who has a hot hand in your East Factory doesn't have the ability to make money."

"Look at what you said, this is not to make money from Dongchang, it's a real deal, do you want to listen to it?" Chang Yu suddenly became serious, which made Xu Yunzhen a little curious and a little tempted.

The reason is very simple, no one wants to get along with silver, let alone a noble like him who has just been plucked: "Father-in-law Chang said come and listen, the old man will see if it is a fire pit or a silver pit"

The carriage went all the way south along the root of the West Imperial City, and when it reached the Daming Gate, there were already many sedan chairs, and the car stopped here, and some ministers were tidying up their appearances, and then they would pass through the Thousand Steps Corridor into the Imperial City to participate in the early dynasty.

Xu Yunzhen got out of the car, his brows were solemn, and he couldn't help but look behind him, and the little eunuch waved his hand to him in the crowd not far away and disappeared.

At the same time, in the Qianqing Palace, Empress Zhou and the palace maid were helping Emperor Chongzhen change clothes: "The emperor's spirit is very good today, and he slept very well last night."

Emperor Chongzhen laughed: "People are in good spirits when they are happy!" ”

Queen Zhou smiled lightly: "What kind of happy event to say to the concubines to be happy."

"Recently, there has been a lot of good news, this is a great happy event, it's not enough for you to be happy" Emperor Chongzhen smiled, clenched his fists and waved it vigorously, as if to cheer himself up.

Knowing her husband and wife, Queen Zhou thoughtfully asked: "Is the emperor going to make a big move in the court today?"

Emperor Chongzhen snorted and spread out his palms, it was a note written by Chang Yu, and on it was a list of exemptions, Deputy Capital Yushi Shi Bangyao, Yushi Wang Zhang Chen Liangmo Chen Chunde, Meng Zhaoxiang, the right attendant of the Criminal Department, Lang Zhongchengde, a member of the Military Department, Jin Xuan, the left governor of the Metropolitan Governor, Wenyao, and the governor of Shuntian, Yang Yi...... Exempt, Wang Wenji, the governor of Jiliao, and the right deputy capital Yu Shi Li Yutian

Empress Zhou glanced at it and couldn't help but be surprised: "So much, the cabinet ...... The emperor really has to stabilize today" said and asked suspiciously: "Then Wang Wenji will be exempted from the responsibility of negligence, didn't Li Yutian just be transferred from Liaodong?" ”

Emperor Chongzhen smiled: "Chang Yu said that he was a corpse vegetarian, I seem to be always staring at Chang Yu and biting, Chang Yu is annoyed!" ”

Queen Zhou couldn't help laughing: "Chang Yu is not the kind of person who takes revenge for personal gain, didn't he always hear Li Yutian say that he was not in good health and yelled to return to Beijing because of the bitter cold outside the Guanwai, maybe it was really as Chang Yu said......

Emperor Chongzhen snorted: "If it weren't for this, how could I really exempt him just by listening to what Chang Yu said, since he was disgusted with the bitter cold in the north, and it happened that several provinces in the south were suffering from the disaster of war, so I let him go over there to warm up."

"This list was submitted by Chang Yu?" Empress Zhou reacted at this time, and then sighed: "It's been two days since he returned to Beijing, but he hasn't seen him yet, it's really hard for this kid to be busy like this!" The love was overflowing, and Emperor Chongzhen patted Empress Zhou and reassured: "At the moment, whether it is the military, civil affairs or cleaning up the officialdom, I need his help!" ”

Empress Zhou nodded: "Thanks to this child, he can help the emperor share his worries, and the concubine will reward him with a delicious meal."

"Then you have to be able to catch others, I heard that the prince has been jumping up and down for the past two days, and he hasn't found a chance to meet with Changyu."

Queen Zhou couldn't help but laugh out loud when she heard this: "Cihong, this kid is good friends with Chang Yu, and every day I think about him going back to Beijing earlier to talk about the battlefield, hey, I'm afraid that this kid will have no intention of studying in the future, and he will think about fighting and killing every day."

"The world of our old Zhu family is achieved by fighting and killing, thinking about this matter will not forget its roots, but there is nothing wrong" Emperor Chongzhen rarely stood on the side of the prince to speak, and even Queen Zhou was surprised: "He will also inherit the respect of the emperor in the future, Chang Yu and him are of the same age, and they will not be unhappy if they befriend the emperor."

Emperor Chongzhen's expression was a little complicated: "If it was in the past, I might have been disgusted, but recently I have figured it out, as long as the Ming Dynasty is immortal, the world will be merciful sooner or later, and he will not have the courage to usurp the throne when I am alive, even if there is Chang Yu, he will not agree, queen, do you say it."

Empress Zhou hurriedly said: "That's naturally, how could Ci Hongzun filial piety do that great rebellion" said and smiled slightly: "What's more, his heart is flying to the world of flowers outside the palace now, maybe he doesn't want to sit as the emperor."

"I can't help him if I don't do it" Emperor Chongzhen smiled slightly: "I will naturally give it to him when I don't want it, and I must sit on it if I give it to him, of course, I don't give it to him, he is not allowed to take it, and he can't take it away!" ”

"That's natural, the prince is not a merciless person, if the emperor says that Chang Yu is there, he will not be allowed to act nonsense." The queen hurriedly reassured: "Chang Yu is absolutely loyal to both the Zhu family and Da Ming, and he will not allow such a thing to happen."

"Yes, even you can see that Chang Yu is loyal to our old Zhu family, but countless people regard him as a thorn in his side, before he was outside with troops to fight, it was okay, but he had just returned to Beijing for two days, and there were not a hundred or eighty ...... to join him" Emperor Chongzhen snorted, these people impeached Chang Yu made him a little angry, but he was willing to see this situation, after all, putting Chang Yu on the opposite side of the courtiers would make him more loyal to himself.

But Queen Zhou is really angry, you must know that she is most grateful to Chang Yu, and she is not like Emperor Chongzhen who is suspicious and guarded against containment and suppression while using it, she sincerely loves this little eunuch who has the grace of rebirth for his old Zhu family, so after hearing this, she said: "Those people in the court have always been incompatible with the people in the inner palace, they are nothing more than jealous of him, and they can't see the good of our Zhu family, and the emperor must not be succeeded by them."

Emperor Chongzhen sneered: "No matter how stupid I am, I will not do anything to destroy the Great Wall, if this is very good, we will ...... it early tomorrow Hehe, if they want to bite, they bite hard, and I will make their eyes red" said suddenly and mysteriously to Queen Zhou: "Do you know who stabbed the most in the back?" ”

Empress Zhou was slightly stunned: "The Li Yutian that the emperor just said? ”

Emperor Chongzhen shook his head.

"That's the second assistant Wu Fu, the concubine once heard Wu Mengming say that this person is against Chang Yu everywhere!"

Chongzhen laughed and shook his head slightly: "But this person is Wu Mengming!" ”

Ah, Empress Zhou was stunned for a moment, and then came to her senses: "It was the emperor who asked Wu Mengming to stare at Chang Yu."

Emperor Chongzhen did not deny it: "Although Chang Yu is loyal, but after all, he is young, I am afraid that he will go the wrong way, so let Wu Mengming stare at him" said and said softly: "Say something that surprises you, you would never have thought that Chang Yu, this kid, also made a lot of oil and water in private."

"Ah, the emperor is saying that Chang Yu is corrupt...... This, if this handle falls into the hands of those people...... "Queen Zhou's first reaction turned out to be worried about this.

Emperor Chongzhen shook his head: "He is not corrupt, at most he gets some hard errand fees, but it is not a small amount, not to mention that he does not use this hard money for personal use, almost all of it is used in the equipment of the fourth battalion of the East Factory, so I just pretend not to know."

Empress Zhou breathed a sigh of relief: "This kid is not a selfish person at first sight, and he is also equipped with the four battalions under his command to guard the ancestral business for our family...... Hey, although this Wu Mengming is staring at Chang Yu by order, I heard that he has a good relationship with Chang Yu before, how could he ......?"

At the moment, this is not enough friends.

Emperor Chongzhen sneered: "They are all my knives, when they use them, they will make each other feel that each other has value for each other, and when they don't use it, they have to stare at each other, do you think I only let Wu Mengming stare at Chang Yu, do you know how much black material Wu Mengming has collected from Dongchang!" ”

Hey, Empress Zhou smiled bitterly and shook her head, she didn't want to know, she just felt that Chongzhen was not tired of calculating like this, but she thought that it was easy to be an emperor, and the art of the emperor was like this.

"And Chang Yu has a lot of unauthorized power in addition to taking it privately" Emperor Chongzhen snorted: "Although the East Factory can call on the power of Jinyiwei, but Jinyiwei is not under the jurisdiction of Dongchang, and it is very owned by Yu, which Chang Yu has indeed done."

"Your Majesty, this is an extraordinary time, Chang Yu is also known for his extraordinary means to do things, maybe it is a little too careless, you can't erase his credit because of this, and blame him, will this chill his heart......" Queen Zhou was a little anxious when she heard this.

Emperor Chongzhen laughed: "Now is the time to employ people, how can I chill his heart, but I also have to remind him"

In fact, in addition to impeaching Chang Yu for his abuse of power, Wu Mengming also secretly played that his influence in the army was too great, so that Emperor Chongzhen could take precautions, but Chongzhen was very relieved about this, first of all, he knew that Chang Yu was extremely loyal to himself and Daming, he would never rebel as an emperor as a eunuch, and secondly, the warlords of the Ming Dynasty were self-respecting and even he could mobilize very little, he needed Chang Yu to re-concentrate the military power for him little by little and then hold it, he even wished that Chang Yu was now rolling in the army every day, and the more warlords he chose, the better.
