Chapter 284: The Nobles of the Capital Must Be Soft (First Update, Ask for Subscription)

In fact, if you want to say that the incident of the prince of the German domain killing the lord in Nanjing shocked anyone the most, I am afraid it is still the honor of the Jingshi! When the news came, they felt both panic and indignation.

These families of meritorious heroes, the so-called "noble families", never imagined that one day someone would do this to them. While feeling incredible and indignant, it is more of a heartfelt panic. They understood that since that lord could attack the lords of Nanjing in Nanjing, he would definitely dare to attack them. If you don't want De Shizi to attack him, there is only one way - ask the ancestors for their blessing, he won't fight!

Therefore, those nobles in the capital expressed sympathy and anger for the nobles of Nanjing, and in addition to anger, unlike the civil officials who called the son of De Shizi a rebel, they hoped to solve this matter as soon as possible, and it was best to make a big thing a small thing and a small thing.

Only God knows why they think thatβ€”they know that relying on the army of the imperial court may not be able to stop him.

Since the imperial court can't stop the Dongyu, it is unlikely that it can stop the tiger and wolf army that can defeat the Dongyu. Therefore, they don't want to force that kid into a "martyrdom".

No one wants to get involved in the affairs of the old Zhu family, but they are really afraid. Taking advantage of the fact that there is still room for redemption, hurry up and work in the middle, so that everyone will tear their faces in the end.

As for how long it can be delayed, no one can say clearly, and if it can be delayed for a day, it will be delayed for a day.

So after a nervous secret connection, these nobles and royal relatives in the capital recommended four people to enter the palace to resolve the matter. Among them, the highest class is Ran Xingrang, the son-in-law of the Wanli Emperor, who is over sixty years old and has hair like silver. The second oldest is Empress Yi'an's father, that is, Chongzhen's sister-in-law, Taikang Bo Zhang Guoji. He has always been cautious, neither asking about foreign affairs nor daring to travel too much. This time, it was also because I was afraid that the killing god would enter Beijing, so I entered the palace hard.

Although everyone is not familiar with the killing god who "kills like the second ancestor", they all know that Chongzhen is short-tempered and very suspicious, so when the four of them were waiting in the Wenhua Palace, their hearts were up and down, and they were nervous. In fact, if there is a clan in Beijing, they will definitely not come out of this, but the Ming Dynasty is different, except for their relatives in Beijing, what kind of clan is there, and the clan is divided into various places.

After the four emperors saw the car, Chongzhen naturally sat down first, and then asked them with a straight face what they were doing in the palace. Before they entered the palace, it was presumed that the old concubine Ma Ranxing would speak first, but when he saw that the emperor's face was grim, he didn't dare to make a sound for the time being. However, Gong Yonggu, the commander of the horses, is Chongzhen's brother-in-law, not only the youngest, but also relatively straightforward, and is very favored by Chongzhen on weekdays. Seeing that everyone was looking at each other and didn't dare to speak, he couldn't help but stand up and play:

"The ministers came to the palace for nothing else, but I beg Your Majesty to see the friendship of the clan, the prince of Xu Defan......"

Chongzhen cut off his words.

"The matter of Zhu Ciying of the German Domain, I have my own opinions, and I don't need to say much."

Gong Yonggu hurriedly said again.

"The emperor is sage, since this matter is out of interference, the ministers should naturally not say much. But thinking about the friendship of the clan, I still have to take care of it......"

Chongzhen sneered.

"I knew you were going to mention your friendship! This country is not only my country, but also the country of the German domain and the country of our ancestors. Even if I don't know about my suffering, my ancestors will know everything. If it weren't a last resort, how could I forbid the younger generations of the clan to be on the high wall? ”

Liu Wenbing said boldly.

"Your Majesty has worked hard for the country, and the ministers know it very well. But today's situation is difficult, although the prince of the German domain is arrogant, but it is always meritorious to the country, the emperor is too responsible for it, who in this world does not know that he has repeatedly performed miraculous feats, so it is forbidden to be high in the wall, who in the world does not avenge his grievances? ”

When Liu Wenbing said this, although he was a little annoyed, Chongzhen still shook his head and said.

"I really don't know. Don't say this to outsiders, in fact, don't I know that Zhu Ciying made a contribution to the country, and at that time he was forbidden to be in Zhongdu because he killed officials, but when the decree was issued, he ...... Hey, in short, there are many misunderstandings, it's not that I blame him too much, it's really ......"

He looked at the four royal princes, sighed, and continued.

"If there are prisoners outside the border, and there are rogue gangsters running rampant inside, the ancestors blessed the clan and finally came out with a general, I should calm the world, how can I bear to do this? Although there was a misunderstanding in the middle, Zhu Ciying was also very domineering, when she went south, she first killed officials to ask for food, forcibly asked for people's daughters, and when she arrived in Nanjing, she used the excuse of dedicating the city to kill the lords and kill the civil officials, this, this is simply tyrannical! ”

As soon as he said this, several royal relatives stopped talking, and the prince of De Shizi was indeed extremely tyrannical!

But their silence, in Chongzhen's eyes, he was the blockage in his heart!

You see, as soon as he is mentioned as tyrannical, no one dares to speak, let alone these royal relatives, even those who are usually impeached at every turn, after the news of the killing of civil officials in Nanjing came by the prince of Deshizi, they were also silent!

Don't they admit that their bones are hard?

Why don't they speak? Can Zhu Ciying's knife still reach Beijing?

Chongzhen wanted to ask why those people didn't speak and didn't impeach, but he didn't dare to ask, he didn't even want to think about it, and promised to make him sad, because those people were really afraid that Zhu Ciying's knife could reach the Jingshi! Of course, there are many officials in Nanzhili who are also afraid, his knife can't reach the Jingshi, and it may cut off the heads of their family members!

Okay!

The tyranny is so that they don't speak one by one.

The only thing that makes Chongzhen happy is that Zhu Ciying is so thirsty for killing, I don't know how many hearts she has lost!

The officialdom offended him again, and the lord let him offend it all!

But why, do these people still help him speak?

But Chongzhen didn't want to know the reason, because he knew that the answer would definitely make him more frustrated, maybe they were worried that after Zhu Ciying crossed the river, the army of the imperial court would not be able to stop him, and when he reached the capital, he would kill them like the lords of Nanjing.

For a while, the four of them didn't dare to speak anymore, they didn't dare to say, what if it reached the ears of the killing god according to the emperor's words? If you don't obey the emperor, you will definitely not be dispatched. Looking at everyone, Chongzhen asked:

"What else do you have to say?"

Everyone stood up and looked at each other, but they did not dare to say anything. Gong Yonggu touched Ran Xingrang with his elbow, and seeing that he didn't respond, he had to take two steps forward by himself, holding the wat board and playing:

"The minister didn't dare to intercede for Zhu Ciying, but he just thought that now that I am in the Ming Dynasty, internal and external troubles are like this, and the court is the time to employ people. Can Your Majesty be extra gracious and ask him to continue to do his best for the country, so that this matter can be brought to an end as soon as possible? ”

On this issue, Chongzhen has also thought about it repeatedly. He also understands that it is not easy to beat Zhu Ciying now, he controls Nanjing and Yangzhou, and he is just stuck in the salt tax and grain of the imperial court, and there is no food and no salary, what to fight?

But he was unwilling to give in immediately, not so that De Shizi would know how powerful he was, but that he didn't know how to end.

"Meritorious service!"

Sneering, Chongzhen said.

"Let him make meritorious service, you can talk about it, what kind of meritorious service, come and talk about it."

As soon as the emperor asked, everyone became dumb again, and the meritorious service was just a rhetoric, as for how to wear a law that could satisfy both sides, I'm afraid it's really hard to say, could it be that the emperor would let him stay in Nanjing temporarily! I'll pick him up when I'm free.

But what about the grain?

But what about the tax silver of Nan Zhili?

Is it difficult to give it to him?

As soon as these words came out, it is estimated that the emperor must suspect that they and De Shizi are in the same party!

Seeing that they didn't speak, Chongzhen smiled reluctantly and continued.

"I know that I am worried about state affairs, and you have done your best. I am mentally tired today, and there are many hardships that I cannot tell you in detail. Let's go. ”

Everyone silently withdrew.

When they withdrew, Chongzhen once again took out a notebook from Fan Fucui when he left the capital, stating his thoughts.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ According to Jinan in the north of the German domain, stealing Yangzhou in the south, there is a slight change, both can cut off the lifeline of the north and south of the grain, and according to Nanjing, the soldiers of the south of the Yangtze River are now subdued, although one is gathered in Huai'an, but it is a soldier who has not been trained for a long time, and it is by no means the opponent of the tiger and wolf of the German domain,...... The only way to do this is to use the means, slowly try it, and make an order to comfort it, and then let it build a tooth in Lushun, one can make him leave the hinterland of Nanzhili, so that the imperial court can regain the tax source and grain of Nanzhili, and second, he can make him attack each other in the east, vent his spirit, and when he is calmed down, he will do Xu Xutu's ......"

Emperor Chongzhen read this piece twice, sighed deeply, but did not speak, and after another moment, Chongzhen said to himself with some melancholy.

"Slowly, slowly...... I'll put up with you today! ”

Then he commanded the imperial eunuch.

"Invite a few ministers to come over and discuss the matter!"

When he invited the ministers over again, Emperor Chongzhen's heart was so depressed.

He even wondered why that kid couldn't be as obedient as King Tang? Tang Wang didn't just go to Zhongdu with a holy decree, and this kid was better to carry it with himself.

However, Emperor Chongzhen also knew very well. In the case of King Tang, the vassal kings of the world are already full of complaints, if such a virtuous prince who has made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty is now locked up in the high wall of the central capital, it is estimated that those vassal kings will not only be full of complaints.

Although those vassal kings had no rights, if they felt threatened and went to the book together, what would happen then?

Moreover, there is also the public opinion of the people of the world. Hey, trouble!

Thinking of this, Chongzhen couldn't help but have a headache, but the headache was more from the heart. I really can't understand how it got into my own hands, and why there are more and more troubles in the world......

Annoying......
