Chapter 159: Moving South (Seeking the First Order, 1/10)

Zhou Kui was originally just Jiading Bo, and when Emperor Chongzhen raised funds and helped him, did he want the old father-in-law to come out to save face for himself, so he was promoted to the Marquis of Jiading, and he stood quite high among the ministers.

At this moment, Zhou Kui's face was like opening a dye shop, black, red, white, and green, constantly flashing.

This person is the most stingy, and he is one of the people he hates the most in the heart of Emperor Chongzhen.

Shameless!

The queen has a dignified temperament, and Emperor Chongzhen has always been satisfied, but how can there be such a hateful person as her father?

And although Zhou Kui is stingy and loves money and is very dim, he has no problem with his brain, and he can still understand his words. The meaning of Liu Wenbing's words is very transparent and straightforward, it is impossible for him not to understand it, and it is precisely because he understands it that he is now acting like this.

Because he was afraid, he was uneasy, he was terrified. With the useless honor, Zhou Kui is not a useless thing to Li Zicheng.

has no courage and no strategy, no wisdom and no wisdom, and even his reputation is very stinky, but it is only because he has a good daughter that he can be knighted. What does Li Zicheng want him to do?

If Li Zicheng used his family property to reward his generals after entering the city, not to mention that it would be impossible to keep this silver, even the lives of the Zhou family would not be guaranteed.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty......" Zhou Kui screamed, just like a cat or dog being stepped on by its tail. frightened the Wenchens who wanted to stand up and impeach Liu Wenbing.

"The old minister is willing to donate three, no, two ......" Zhou Kui, who came out, was really like a tiger, so he was not mighty, and he would open his mouth to give half of the family's silver. Liu Wenbing's words made him feel a huge sense of tension in his heart.

It all made him feel that this was specially said to him.

But in the next moment, a huge feeling of distress rushed to his heart like a surge, and he only felt that his heart was like a knife, and the 100,000 taels of words behind the word 'three' could no longer be spit out.

The whole person seemed to be unable to speak, and stammered on the spot.

"Puff......" Gong Yonggu burst out laughing. Whether it was the courtiers or the nobles, the ridicule was endless.

Who can't see what Zhou Kui thinks, but as soon as he figured it out, he felt sorry for the silver, and the emperor had such a father-in-law, and it was also amazing.

The joy in Emperor Chongzhen's heart also dimmed by three points, Zhou Kui slapped him in the face too much, such a performance, it is better to shrink to the side and say nothing.

"The old minister is willing to donate 100,000 taels to help ......"

Even the subsequent sound did not make Emperor Chongzhen happy.

These 100,000 taels of silver would only make Emperor Chongzhen even more annoyed.

What does Zhou Kui's 'three' mean at the beginning? Who can not understand?

It's not 300,000 taels, does he dare to donate 30,000 taels or 3,000 taels at this time? Then he wouldn't have to act like that.

And as soon as he opened his mouth, he could donate 300,000 taels, and his financial resources could be imagined. But at the beginning, he only donated 10,000 taels, no, 8,000 taels. Emperor Chongzhen felt that he would never forget this incident for the rest of his life.

After reading the joke, the civil officials couldn't bear it, from Zhou Yanru to some sesame petty officials, but they should be Kedao officials, and they jumped out one after another to impeach Liu Wenbing.

What is the difference between Korean Chinese martial arts and Xungui? What does it mean that Li thief always wants people to rule the world? They are all like disloyal and unfilial ministers. Even if they really wanted to be a second minister in their hearts, didn't Li Zicheng's army have yet to enter the Beijing Division. This Yanjing City is still the world of the Ming Emperor, and they are naturally still the great loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, no one knows what they think in their hearts.

"If there is indeed something inappropriate in Xin Lehou's words, he will be fined for a year." Emperor Chongzhen let it go lightly.

Zhou Yanru, Chen Yan, Wei Zaode, Jiang Dejing, etc., can only give up, otherwise? Forcing the emperor to punish Xinlehou severely? That's because the emperor doesn't suspect them, isn't it?

"The minister is willing to donate 10,000 taels of silver to help the country fight the chaos." Wu Changshi ran out to arrive. But he received a look from Zhou Yanru.

"The minister is willing to donate 20,000 taels and 20 family members to help His Majesty and save the country."

Gong Yonggu donated 5,000 taels before, and now he has to make up 20,000 taels, which is also the extreme.

Emperor Chongzhen nodded with satisfaction, Gong Yonggu, what kind of family is this brother-in-law, he is not unclear.

"However, the minister is only worried that the thief is strong, and the Li thief has an army of 500,000 people, and the morale is bound to be extremely strong. If the Beijing division is surrounded on all sides and attacks from all sides, it will be difficult for the soldiers and civilians in the city to parry. The minister dares to ask His Majesty to move south quickly! ”

Gong Yonggu is not afraid that his future will be ruined, he is the master of the old Zhu family, and his real future has long been gone. He raised his hands in favor of the southward move as early as when the matter of moving south was hotly discussed, and now it is up to him to bring it up, and Gong Yonggu said that there is no pressure.

"For today's plan, only by moving south can the society of the imperial court survive. The southern country has the Yangtze River natural danger to rely on, even if the north falls, you can also rely on the advantage of the sailor to hold the Jianghuai, follow the example of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty to protect half of the Ming Dynasty. In addition, the six departments of the southern capital are complete, and there are taxes in the south of the Yangtze River to recruit soldiers, and the northern land is left to compete with the Li thief and the eastern captive. In this way, it only takes a few years to accumulate strength, and then you can return to the Northern Expedition, fight the Central Plains with Li Thief, and restore your homeland. There is the story of the Southern Song Dynasty in front of you, and Your Majesty can follow it. ”

The officials in front of the emperor's gate were in an uproar.

"Are you really going to move south?"

"Li Zicheng has an army of 500,000, and once the Juyong Pass is broken, how can this little soldier and horse in the city be able to resist? If you don't move the capital, you will die. ”

"Gyeonggi is where the temple is located, and the ancestors have won a hundred battles, so do you really want to give up?"

"If you don't lose the temple, you will die in the Ming Dynasty, and the two powers will harm each other, so you should take the lesser of them."

"Your Majesty is going south with the princes, kings and hundreds of officials, there must always be someone left in the capital, who is willing to stay in the cabinet?"

Whether it is a hundred officials or nobles, all the discussions have risen at this moment, and the matter of moving the capital to the south has not been mentioned once or twice, I'm afraid it is not so easy to finalize, right?

Emperor Chongzhen cleared his throat, "Silence! Wang Chengen stood up and shouted.

"On the sixth day of my first month, I ordered Wu Sangui to give up Ning Yuan and transfer the Ning army to Weijing Division. In this way, the imperial court only has less than 10,000 troops left in Shanhaiguan, and if the eastern captives take the opportunity to attack, how can Gao Di stop it? At the same time, Datong and Xuanfu to the north of the Beijing division are not guaranteed, and even the passes of Juyong Pass and the Great Wall are also in danger, and the imperial court to the west of the Beijing division has no soldiers. Even if the imperial court relied on Zheng Zhilong and the Guanning army that came to the aid to repel the thieves, it was unable to defend the Shanhaiguan Pass and the Great Wall, and it was impossible to recover the lost territories in Xuanda Mountain and the Central Plains of Shaanxi. ”

"Besides, Li Zicheng's partial divisions have all penetrated the Central Plains and entered Qilu." Hong Chengchou has few soldiers and is short of food, so it's just enough to flee without a fight, what about Liu Zeqing? Frightened when he heard the wind, as soon as the thief army entered Dongchang, he abandoned Linqing and fled to Yanzhou.

Take a deep breath, calm your mind, calm your mind. Emperor Chongzhen reminded himself not to be angry, and the top priority was to finalize the matter of moving south. Slowing down his voice and continuing: "In this way, Jingshi is already alone. No matter how entrenched the imperial court is, it will not be able to make the situation repeat. "There is no money and no food, I'm afraid that the Guan Ning army can't hold it. The only use was to isolate Li Zicheng from the Manchu Qing, and the two would never fight until the Ming Dynasty ended in Yanjing.

"Sticking to the policy of the Beijing division is not good in the imperial court and in the community. It is inevitable to abandon the Jingshi! The voice dimmed a little, and Emperor Chongzhen was also very depressed in his heart.

"What the Captain of the Horse said is very true. The stakes are clear, and how to make trade-offs is self-evident. To this day, if there are still people who say that "the ancestral inheritance should not be abandoned", they are trapped in the society and killed, and their hearts are unpredictable! ”

Emperor Chongzhen looked at the civil and military officials and the lords in front of him, and he couldn't scold him, and these last two sentences could be regarded as making him angry.
