Chapter 20: The Little Eunuch's Advice

"The small one is just a lowly eunuch in the Internal Affairs Office, what can I do, I won't send the small one to the front line to resist the thief army, don't say that the little one doesn't have that ability, even if there are two of them?"

"This palace can recommend you to my father......" Zhu Cihong blurted out.

"No"

Gong Yonggu and Chang Yu said in unison, the prince is still too young, and he never knows how deep and dark the political water is, not to mention whether he will be cut by a demagogic prince if he pushes Chang Yu to Chongzhen, even if Chongzhen believes what he said, what can he do? Chang Yu only knows some historical events, how the thief army should attack or how to attack, who to send to resist, and how to resist is still a problem.

Some people will say that it is always good to drag out those generals who surrendered and did not resist, as well as traitors in the DPRK and China, and cut them down!

Awesome my brother!

What about the evidence, if it didn't happen, you can know who the future refers to to killing by your sentence? Emperor Chongzhen believes,

Take 10,000 steps back Emperor Chongzhen believed, but could he do it? Only the affairs of the court are controlled by the ministers on weekdays, not to mention that if you want to kill those courtiers, I am afraid that Chang Yu will be detained by those courtiers with bewitches and so on.

Moreover, who those generals killed, how to ensure that those new ones would not surrender, and the most important thing is that at this time, the generals were very dragged, and Emperor Chongzhen didn't even dare to say a hard word.

Therefore, Chang Yu can't be withdrawn from the table, as long as he shows his face, he will be killed by those ministers, and it will 100% affect the prince's mansion, and then all kinds of conspiracy theories will be overwhelming, and Zhu Cihong will have to peel off his skin even if he doesn't die.

Zhu Cihong also knew the stakes instantly, immediately shut up, and then suddenly wailed and cried again: "Do you want to watch my Ming Dynasty die like this!" ”

Gong Yonggu was silent, and Chang Yu lowered his head in contemplation.

"It's about my Ming Dynasty's fortunes, so naturally I can't sit idly by" Chang Yu suddenly said: "The little one and the two masters are powerless, the emperor is constrained by the ministers of the court, and it is difficult to have no soldiers, no generals, no pay, and the general trend is almost difficult to reverse, but we can only make many preparations for the time being, maybe things will take a turn for the better."

Chang Yu has been thinking about this matter for the past few days, how could he not have a plan in his heart, the excuse just now just made the atmosphere more solemn and nervous, so that he could sell it at a good price.

Sure enough, Zhu Cihong and Gong Yonggu, who were in a trance, looked anxious: "What preparations, what can you think of?" ”

"At present, the best way is to persuade the emperor to move south to be unprepared, the little one knows that the two are light-hearted, but he also knows that there are also ministers of the humerus in the court, such as Li Mingrui in the East Palace Zuo Zhongyun and Li Banghua in the inspector Zuo Du Yushi, they are all in support of the southward move, of course, the court is more small, and the most disgusting clown is the soldier who can give the light in the matter."

"Grandpa Chang actually knows Li Zhongyun?" Zhu Cihong was a little surprised, Li Mingrui was an official of his prince's mansion, and he often talked to him about the affairs of the DPRK and China!

Chang Yu nodded lightly, and suddenly smiled: "The little one still knows that Li Zhongyun's backstage is Li Banghua, but Li Yushi hasn't surfaced yet."

He said this by looking at Gong Yonggu and saying it, and sure enough, this concubine was surprised, because at this time, Li Zhongyun had just proposed the matter of moving south, and it was the kind of whispering with Chongzhen, and he didn't take it out of the table to discuss, because although Chongzhen had a heart, he didn't dare to say it clearly, he had to release the wind first to see the reaction of the cabinet, and as for Li Mingrui's whispering, only a confidant like Gong Yonggu knew about it, but he broke it with a word, and even pointed out the big guy behind it! At this time, Chongzhen didn't know that Li Mingrui was coming to visit the emperor's mind for his teacher Li Banghua.

The two glanced at each other, and they believed Chang Yu a little more in their hearts.

"Light Shiheng ...... this person"

"Guang Shiheng is extremely filthy, and the little one can't wait to kill this dog" Chang Yu interrupted Gong Yonggu's words with a look of disgust: "Behind him is the incompetent waste of Shoufu Chen Yan"

It is true that once the son of heaven and a courtier, the change of dynasties cannot simply determine who is a bad person by who surrenders, but there is still a big difference between a bad person and a shameless person, and in this period, there are really a lot of shameless courtiers with no bottom line among the ministers of the Ming Dynasty!

One by one, the small eunuchs of the Internal Affairs Office actually scolded the first assistant of the court by name, which made the prince and the concubine feel extremely strange.

Seeing the expressions of the two, Chang Yu continued; "Taking advantage of the fact that the opposition between the DPRK and China is not very strong, the two need to try their best to win over some courtiers to cheer for the move to the south so that the trip can be completed."

"In addition, in order to prepare for the occasion, we must also prepare forces in private to escort the prince south when necessary, as long as the prince is in the Daming Foundation, where is it the turn of those cats and dogs to fight" Speaking of this, seeing Zhu Cihong's eyes a little puzzled, he said: "After seeing the prince killed by the Tartars when the little soul was out of the body, the princes and princes of the various domains rushed to be the first to claim the emperor, regardless of the Qinggou going south, and the people lived or died, but they only cared about who was orthodox in the internal fighting, and the shameless even wanted to unite with the Tartars to fight the opponent."

With a bang, Zhu Cihong slammed a fist on the case next to him, with an angry face: "They are also worthy!" ”

Chang Yu was stunned in his heart, not to mention the disgusting behavior of these people, your family is dead, how can people not deserve it, it seems that the royal family is really wary of those vassal kings, and the disgust is extreme.

"What do you mean by the power of preparation? Private soldiers, this is absolutely impossible, the inner relatives do not hide the armor This is the iron law of this dynasty" Gong Yonggu finally said this famous sentence that he has passed down for hundreds of years, but he said it to Chang Yu.

Chang Yu also had an indescribable strangeness when he heard this, and thought to himself, what you are saying now is categorical, but you know how much remorse and helplessness you have when you say this in history.

"Since the inner relatives can't hide the armor, it's not the inner relatives" Chang Yu said softly, and then woke up Gong Yonggu: "Then, then you must always find someone who can be trusted!" ”

"The little one is willing to do his best to go to the soup for the prince, and the horse master doesn't have to come forward, he just needs to help the little one a little conveniently, even if the two of them are never involved" Chang Yu knelt down as he spoke, looking at the two with firm eyes.

Zhu Cihong's eyes became hot, staring at Chang Yu and staring at Gong Yonggu sideways!

Gong Yonggu was also a little excited, and silently finished his head, and couldn't leave the news: "Otherwise, you and I are in danger of being killed, and even the prince will be involved."

"The little one naturally knows that it is powerful" Chang Yu breathed a long sigh of relief, and then said: "These are all backup measures, but the most important thing at the moment is the matter of the thief army's crusade, the small one has two important clues, and the two masters must try their best to send them to the Holy Front, if they are adopted, they may also change the current situation."

"What clues?" Zhu Cihong and Gong Yonggu asked in unison.

"First, the original intention of the thief army's eastward expedition was never to attack the capital, but to expand the battle line out of Shaanxi in order to protect Xi'an, and second, the thief army only had more than 60,000 troops, and the so-called million was just blowing the atmosphere" Chang Yu looked at the two seriously and said.

There was a joke in later generations, saying that Li Ziyuan originally wanted to set up a roadside stall to make extra money, but he didn't want to be forced to enter Beijing and become the emperor.

Although it is a joke, it is also a fact, Li Ziyuan really had no intention of entering Beijing, and he did not have the confidence and ambition to hit Beijing at that time, and there were two reasons why he went eastward, first, he had just been proclaimed emperor in Xi'an, and he wanted to drive the Ming army around him outside, otherwise he would have no sense of security around the door every day.

Second, that is, the family is too poor to go out to earn some extra money, and driving away the Ming army can make money, which is a matter of killing two birds with one stone.

Then he sent troops, and then he was surprised, happy and depressed, he didn't think that his so-called million army plus a press release sent before departure immediately scared the Ming army, and everywhere he went, he either surrendered or ran, and in a blink of an eye, he took several cities and received tens of thousands of surrendered soldiers.

After the surprise, it was depressed, because there was no money and no food, and now there were tens of thousands of mouths, so what should I do, so I had to drive the ducks to the shelves to continue the crusade, and then it snowballed, and more and more troops were lowered, and later than his original strength was several times, and there was no way at this time, if you don't fight the return journey, how to feed so many people, those soldiers can turn against him at any time, if you kill it, so many kills can't be killed, if it is spread out, it will be very unfavorable to him, so it has become a dead cycle.

It was looped until he came to the city of Beijing, he didn't even want to go in, and sent someone to negotiate with Emperor Chongzhen, you give me one million, cut Xi'an and let me be king, I will leave, and help you fight Tartar!

However, Chongzhen is also a brainless donkey, in a word, go to your uncle's idea of beauty, so ......
