Chapter 048: Upheaval in Shaanxi!
July of the first year of Chongzhen.
After more than half a year of changes, this has also made the current Ming dynasty have great changes compared with the Apocalypse Dynasty, and the situation of the four parties in the DPRK and China has become a basic general trend, and at the same time, this corresponding authority has been consolidated.
Because Zhao Zongwu and Zhang Weixian were the auxiliary princes appointed by Emperor Chongzhen, in order to further strengthen the authority of the auxiliary princes, they spent so long to temporarily transfer the power of approving red that originally belonged to the inner court to the powers and responsibilities of the auxiliary princes.
Because the emperor was young and unable to control the government, and at the same time, in order to avoid the situation of eunuchs interfering in politics, he took down the right to approve the red.
The power to vote is in the hands of the cabinet, but at this time, the cabinet has become a subordinate office of the auxiliary government and the government.
To put it simply, from this moment on, the auxiliary government is the most powerful existence in the Ming Dynasty!
If the authority of the four auxiliary princes is summed up into one person, then he will become the regent in the early Qing Dynasty.
Because of the situation of the four parties standing side by side, Zhang Weixian and their peers finally formed a new political system after half a year of game and running-in in order to consolidate their own power.
Three times a month, a large-scale court meeting is held, which involves all officials in Beijing, and the purpose is to obtain the corresponding rights through repeated games in the process, of course, no one has taken advantage of it at this stage.
In this way, the Great Court Meeting was held in early July.
But it is destined that this time the court meeting will not be so peaceful.
"Dingguo Gong, the silver salary you talked about for the Beijing army, after this Gong has been summarized, it can't be allocated to you so much, according to the initial plan and deployment, just the garrison army reclamation in Beizhili can completely meet the needs of the Beijing army, and now you have reported to the imperial court such a large amount of silver to buy grain and grass, I'm afraid it will ......" Zhu Chunchen was wearing a red robe, standing at the head of the hall, looking at Zhao Zongwu opposite with his eyes like a torch, and spoke in a subdued voice.
What is the Great Court discussing?
It is all about decision-making.
During this period, the main objects of discussion were Zhao Zongwu, Zhang Weixian, Zhu Chunchen, and Xu Xi, who analyzed their behavior to each other according to their respective authority.
In the face of Zhu Chunchen's difficulties, Zhao Zongwu had thought of it from the beginning, and said about it: "This duke made it clear as early as the beginning that the rectification of the Beijing army is divided into three stages, and now it is in the third stage of rectification, so the silver salary required by this duke is reasonable!" ”
Because each of them has a huge force behind them, this also makes them-for-tat when arguing.
Half a step back means that you have less power.
Zhu Chunchen said: "Dingguo Gong! If everyone is as potentially concealed as you, I'm afraid the court will ......"
Originally, Zhu Chunchen also prepared a lot of rhetoric, saying that he would also kill more than half of the silver salary reported by Zhao Zongwu, after all, letting Zhao Zongwu control so much silver salary, even if it was a disguised increase in Zhao Zongwu's power, this was absolutely unbearable for Zhu Chunchen.
But the original majestic court, at this time, broke into a general, who was entrusted by the governor of Shaanxi Hu Tingyan on his deathbed, and reported to the court!
"Report! ...... of drastic changes in Shaanxi"
Because the outer defense line of the inner court was led and controlled by the Jinyi Guard's personal attendants, when he learned that Shaanxi had undergone drastic changes, he was on duty with the Jinyi Guard's personal attendants Qianhu and let him in.
This point was explained by Zhao Zongwu at the beginning, no matter what kind of emergencies were encountered when he was on duty, and no matter what the inner court was doing at that time, as long as it involved local stability, it must be released as soon as possible!
Hence the scene of Fang Cai.
The hysterical roar made the ministers of the DPRK and the central government instantly attracted to it, and even Zhu Chunchen's face was full of displeasure, because he finally seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and Zhao Zongwu was getting up, and at this time there was a change, do you think he can be happy?
After all, he was scolded by Zhao Zongwu before, and he was called miserable!
And Zhao Zongwu was shocked in his heart after hearing the roar, 'Shaanxi drastic changes?!' What a situation! ’
I saw that the general looked haggard, and came in with the support of Jinyiwei, regardless of the ministers who were talking, his eyes looked ahead in a trance, and said: "Shaanxi has changed drastically!" The two thieves and kings of Baishui County raised their banners to rebel, gathering people to attack the filial piety of Pucheng and Zichuan Town of Hancheng. Jiayin, the king of Fugu, and Zuohang, the king of Yichuan, took advantage of the situation to attack the castle and kill the officials...... Hu Tingyan, the governor of Shaanxi, was shot by a rebel stray arrow and died unexpectedly. ”
The dialect with the Shaanxi dialect filled the entire hall, and when he finished speaking the words and half-took out the sealed document from his bosom, he passed out......
What the?!
No one could believe what they had just heard.
Has there been a civil change in Shaanxi?
And listening to what he said, its momentum has become more and more intense.
That's not a good momentum!
Zhao Zongwu frowned, took the sealed document handed over by Jinyiwei, and opened it in public and looked at it, but it doesn't matter if you don't look at it!
On the territory of Shaanxi, a vigorous peasant uprising has already broken out!
Zhang Weixian, who was standing in place, walked to Zhao Zongwu's side at this time and asked, "Dingguo Gong, what's going on?" ”
Although it is said that the general who passed out in the past has told the most basic situation, Zhang Weixian, Zhu Chunchen, and Xu Xi still have some doubts in their hearts, especially Zhang Weixian, who is in charge of people's livelihood, and they can't believe that all this is true.
After all, not long ago, he got the exact news from Hu Tingyan that the famine in Shaanxi had been completely eradicated, and the people in the territory were all grateful to the emperor.
Why is it that in less than a month, there have been such drastic changes in Shaanxi?
It's impossible!
After listening to Zhang Weixian's inquiry, Zhao Zongwu didn't say much else, but handed the song in his hand to Zhang Weixian, and said simply: "Half of the prefectures and counties in Shaanxi have messed up the system. ”
Zhang Weixian had suspicion on his face, and took the note handed by Zhao Zongwu, but the expression on his face became more and more gloomy after seeing it.
Zhao Zongwu never thought that he would have such a big impact, even with the peasant uprising that broke out in Shaanxi at the beginning, it was originally just a small fight, but because of the changes in the imperial court, with the public auxiliary government of the four countries, the local government in order to curry favor with Shangguan, for some actual situations to adopt the strategy of bullying and suppressing the bottom, which further made the original place of constant grievances completely become an erupting volcano!
Wang Jiayin, Wang Ziyong, Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng and other rebels at the end of the Ming Dynasty all appeared!
