Chapter 40: A Complete Break
Speaking of this, Liu Kongzhao himself felt aggrieved, since Empress Zhang lived in the Chengyi Uncle's Mansion, his family status of the Chengyi Uncle has become lower and lower.
It turned out that the real master of the family was his old lady, don't look at Liu Kongzhao who rolled up his sleeves and prepared to fight when he didn't agree outside, but in front of his mother, he was a filial son who obeyed his words.
But after Empress Zhang stayed in the Sincerity Mansion, Mrs. Tai felt that this was an unprecedented honor for the Sincerity Mansion, obviously several rounds older than the age of Queen Zhang, but every two or three days she came to visit Queen Zhang, for fear of wronging Queen Zhang in food, clothing, housing and transportation, and Queen Zhang also did everything possible to satisfy Mrs. Zhang.
Mrs. Tai originally disliked Ma Chaocai from Qinglou very much, but since Empress Zhang praised Ma Chaocai twice in Mrs. Tai, Mrs. Tai immediately changed her mind and welcomed Ma Chaocai into the door as soon as possible.
And since Ma Chaocai was born in Qinglou and knows how to serve people, he quickly established a very good relationship with Mrs. Tai and Empress Zhang after entering the mansion.
Although Ruan Dacheng didn't notice Liu Kongzhao's little grievances, he knew how to dig a pit: "Uncle Sincerity, are you only here for a little beauty like Li Xiangjun this time?" ”
Ma Chaocai had already explained before coming, and Liu Kongzhao immediately replied: "Zhang Niangniang has said a lot of good things for you before, but how to interpret it depends on your performance later!" ”
Ruan Dacheng immediately asked, "How does Niang Niang want me to behave?" Please rest assured, we are all pillars of the country, as long as the mother explains the matter, we will definitely do it, and we will never let the mother down! ”
Before going out, Ma Chaocai had already explained clearly to Liu Kongzhao: "The first thing is to appease Tian Futai, now Tian Futai is not a headache for Gao Jie, Huang Degong, Liu Liangzuo, and Liu Zeqing, Niangniang has already figured out how to subdue the four towns!" When the time comes, please contact you in the center!"
Liu Kongzhao continued: "And Niangniang has already said that the country is eventful, and the amount should be used to avoid the past, and we should not care about some old things that are old and rotten, so that everyone can have the opportunity to do their part for the cause of Daming Zhongxing." ”
Liu Kongzhao's words made these so-called "eunuchs" present clench their fists excitedly, and Zhang Jie even shouted: "Niangniang Shengming!" ”
Of course, this also means that there is a more fierce battle in the court.
In Ruan Dacheng's heart, as long as Empress Zhang's statement is spread, it is guaranteed that Donglin Dog jumps off the wall in a hurry, after all, Donglin is in a hurry, but anyone dares to scold, Wanli Dynasty and Tianqi Dynasty even make a big fuss about the emperor's harem privacy at every turn, and all the pressure will be concentrated on Empress Zhang at that time.
But no one expected that Empress Zhang's sentence "The country is eventful, and the use of people should be used is not to blame", although it set off a lot of waves and even received a lot of scolding, but everyone's attention was immediately attracted by another earth-shattering event.
That is, Liu Zongzhou's letter to the "reckless lonely minister" has been spread all over the southern capital for the first time, in which Liu Zongzhou not only suggested that the Hongguang Emperor drive the expedition in person, but also believed that Lu Zhenfei, Gao Jie, and Liu Qingze, the two marshals, should be engaged in military law.
Although Liu Zongzhou and Donglin gentlemen do not read much, but there are not a few scholars in Nanjing, and soon someone pointed out the inappropriateness, Sun Qi abolished Sun Liang and Sun Xiu and called himself "Cao Mangchen", Liu Zongzhou is to represent Donglin to do the abolition of the matter?
As soon as the word "abolished" was mentioned, everyone couldn't help but think of Empress Zhang and the three chapters of the covenant between her and King Fu, and everyone wondered if Donglin and Empress Zhang had reached a consensus with Empress Zhang to abolish Emperor Hongguang and establish a new monarch.
Now the civil and military officials, whether they support Donglin or oppose Donglin, are suddenly full of respect for Empress Zhang.
After all, she may have the right to abolish Emperor Hongguang in her hands, and the current court is too unpleasant, and a piece of gossip is still circulating everywhere, saying that Lu Zhenfei, the former governor of Huaiyang, said it himself: "When the law was about three chapters, Zhang Niangniang once said that I can set you up and abolish you!" ”
Although someone asked Ma Shiying Xiangguo, who was present at the time, Ma Shiying repeatedly denied that there was such a thing, but Liu Yongxi, who was also present at the time, was flustered and didn't know how to answer.
This makes everyone think that Empress Zhang did say so, and although Zhang Niangniang did not object much to King Fu Bingzheng, she has been living in the Chengyi Bofu in the name of "provincial relatives" and refuses to return to the palace.
Everyone thinks that Empress Zhang is now too upside down, but she is outside the palace and has the support of Liu Kongzhao, the sincere uncle, and Sun Fan, the king of imperial history, but the court is so perverse, but many civil and military officials have illusions about Empress Zhang.
No matter how angry King Fu is, everyone can ask Empress Zhang to abolish him!
It's just that Liu Zongzhou's series of shocks have not yet come to an end, and the political dispute between the DPRK and China has become more and more intense.
First of all, Ruan Dacheng led His Majesty to see the Hongguang Emperor change, although Ruan Dacheng was not officially reinstated, but everyone felt that this was a harbinger of Ruan Dacheng's recovery, so many officials besieged it.
This also includes Wang Sunfan's note, but because Ruan Dacheng had already seen this note in advance, he didn't take it too seriously.
Then Zuo Liangyu sent Hubei to patrol the imperial history Huang Shu and Chengtian garrison eunuch He Zhikong into Beijing, and it was a big scene of scolding in front of the emperor. ”
Emperor Hongguang had no experience in controlling the scene at all, and even asked Huang Shu who was the traitor in his mouth, and Huang Shu immediately used all his means to cry and scold, pointing out that Ma Shiying was treacherous and misleading the country.
He first said that when Li Zicheng broke through the capital, Ma Shiying did not move, and never refused to send a soldier and a soldier to the king, and then said that Ma Shiying, as the governor of Fengyang, gave up the ancestral tomb of Fengsi and led the soldiers of the four towns to the south when the policy was decided, and scolded "Shiying is an unloyal thief, and the emperor is the son of unfilial piety, and there is more to kill!" ”
Ma Shiying didn't dare to open his mouth to refute, but Huang Shu still scolded endlessly, not only saying that "Shiying doesn't learn and has no skills, and is not a prime minister", and even said that "Shiying has Zhang Xianzhong's puppet official Zhou Wenjiang silver 8,000 taels of silver to confer the general, and the crime can be beheaded", Emperor Hongguang reacted at this time: "If there is such a thing, why not rectify it when the first emperor is in charge!" ”
But Huang Shu still scolded Ma Shiying, and He Zhikong, the eunuch of the Chengtian garrison, also stood up and testified with Huang Shu that Ma Shiying's crime was extremely evil, and it was impossible to end it, but the eunuch Han Zanzhou stood up to stop He Zhikong from scolding Ma Shiying and controlled the situation by the way: "The public opinion is in the outer court, and the internal officials have no court to insult the cabinet ministers!" ”
Huang Shu completely had the upper hand in this imperial summons, but in this way, Ma Shiying, an early peripheral member of the Restoration Society, was completely torn apart from the Donglin Restoration Society.
