Although Cui Chengxiu felt that the power of the military department had been greatly weakened, it was not necessarily a bad thing when he thought about it.

You know your own business.

Cui Chengxiu clearly knew how much shit he had on his ass When the Emperor of the Apocalypse was in power, he was not less greedy with Wei Zhongxian's power.

Now that Emperor Chongzhen has ascended the throne, although he said that he would not dispose of himself, it was nothing more than for the sake of Wei Zhongxian's face, or because he knew how to advance and retreat, so he could mix in peace and stability until now?

In short, to say that following such a master as Emperor Chongzhen on an errand would say that he was not afraid of it would be false.

Nowadays, although the power of the military department has been weakened, the corresponding responsibilities are much less.

For example, Liaodong and Shaanxi.

Even if Yang He and Mao Wenlong suffer defeat, this board will not fall on their heads in the future, and the unlucky one will most likely have to be the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies that has been re-erected.

As for who is unlucky, is it Zhang Weixian or Zhu Chunchen, Cui Chengxiu said that it is his own business?

It's just that Emperor Chongzhen still can't do this kind of thing just by hitting the board and not giving benefits.

After thinking about it, Emperor Chongzhen continued: "Cui Aiqing, don't think that you are really relaxed. ”

Seeing Cui Chengxiu's puzzled look, Emperor Chongzhen smiled again and said: "In the future, all matters such as the declaration of war by the Ming Dynasty will be decided by me and the cabinet, and the soldiers will announce it to the outside world.

Also, Cui Aiqing's name as a young master and a prince should also be moved. ”

Hearing Emperor Chongzhen's words, it was obvious that he wanted to give himself benefits, Cui Chengxiu was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen." ”

After Emperor Chongzhen hummed, he continued to say to Wei Zhongxian: "Zhongxian, tonight is calm, I'm afraid that tomorrow will be turbulent." All the precautions in the harem, you have to do a good job with Fang Zhenghua, and everyone who has two hearts and wants to betray the Lord and seek glory will be disposed of. ”

Wei Zhongxian immediately bowed down to receive the order.

Emperor Chongzhen then looked at the British Duke Zhang Weixian: "Zhang Aiqing, tomorrow will be a success, whether the Ming Dynasty will be a country for ten thousand years or a beacon of smoke, it depends on Aiqing." ”

Zhang Weixian coughed twice and then bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister has already ordered the Beijing camp to take over the city defense of the capital, and all the gates are sealed, Your Majesty should not disturb." ”

Emperor Chongzhen snorted, and then looked at the magnificence of the scholar's study: "Tomorrow, if something is not harmonious, immediately order someone to summon the officials in Nanjing to go to the post station, and rush six hundred miles into Beijing to fill the vacancy." The affairs of the court should not be suspended for a long time. ”

Fang Zhuang bowed down, but Wen Tiren said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the ministers in the court don't need to worry, but the ones who are worried are the state and county officials in the world."

If there is a villain who spreads rumors, then the state and county officials in the world will resign, what can they do for it? ”

Emperor Chongzhen sneered and said, "If you resign, you will resign." Those who resign from the county order, the corrupt are killed, and the non-greedy are all allowed, and no one is allowed to go out of the three clans and five generations, and they are not allowed to join the army, and the county is promoted on the spot, and the county is promoted to the main book.

The case of the same county in Sanzhou. Whenever the governor of Zhili Prefecture resigns, he will immediately order the adjutant to replace him step by step. ”

After finishing speaking, Emperor Chongzhen sneered again: "Huanghuang Daming, thousands of people, I don't know how many people are scholars, and there are not a few people who can't be officials, and there are really no people who can't run without them?" ”

After laughing, Emperor Chongzhen pondered for a long time and then suddenly waved his hand and said, "You Aiqing will rest in the palace tonight." Tomorrow I will go to court with me. ”

After speaking, Emperor Chongzhen ordered Wang Chengen to prepare a resting place for the ministers in the palace.

Now it's completely right. After the palace ban, the palace was originally not allowed to enter and leave at will, but now even the possibility of internal and external communication has been completely cut off.

After all the ministers went down, Emperor Chongzhen headed for the queen's bedroom.

waved away the palace maid who was waiting on the side, looked at the eldest daughter Zhu Jingxue's little face that had gradually grown and looked pink and tender, stretched out his hand and pinched the baby fat on the little face, Emperor Chongzhen said to himself: "Good daughter, look at how Daddy gives you a peaceful and prosperous world, so that you and your mother will be safe and happy for the rest of your life." ”

Although Zhu Jingxue was asleep, she still felt the discomfort on her face, muttered a few times, and then stretched out her little hand to pull Emperor Chongzhen's big hand.

Emperor Chongzhen chuckled lightly and ordered: "You are waiting for the princess, if you are on a business trip, be careful of your head." ”

Empress Zhou, who had already been awakened, looked at Emperor Chongzhen's appearance and chuckled: "Your Majesty can be spoiled, don't be unable to marry in the future." ”

Emperor Chongzhen smiled: "Joke, my eldest princess will not be able to get married?" Isn't the queen laughing at me? It's time to fight! ”

Dodging Emperor Chongzhen's big hand stretched out to her buttocks, Empress Zhou chuckled and said, "Don't you dare to concubine, Your Majesty spares your life." ”

Emperor Chongzhen no longer teased Empress Zhou, but got up and copied Empress Zhou.

Empress Zhou struggled to no avail, and finally had to let Emperor Chongzhen carry her to the bed.

Since Zhu Jingxue had not yet come out of the full moon, Emperor Chongzhen could only regret that he had slept with Empress Zhou all night, and he couldn't do anything.

Waiting for the next day's court meeting, Emperor Chongzhen looked at the officials in the court hall and said with a smile: "You Aiqing must know about last night's incident?" ”

The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were all confused, what happened yesterday, the news that the Manchu Dynasty got was that Emperor Chongzhen personally tried the case, and in a fit of rage, he asked Yin Liu Zongzhou of the Shuntian Mansion to get out, and the city gates were all blocked, and the rest was not clear.

Just looking at this posture, as long as you are not a fool, you can know that something big must happen, not to mention these elites in the court?

Seeing that none of the ministers came out to speak, Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "Wen Aiqing, you can tell you about yesterday's case." ”

Wen Tiren bowed down, and then recounted what happened to the wife of the soldier Wang Zongguang and the verdict of Emperor Chongzhen.

It's just that Wen Tiren just finished talking about Emperor Chongzhen's verdict, and Su Maoxiang, the secretary of the Criminal Department, came out of the class first and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has a play." ”

Emperor Chongzhen hummed and said, "Aiqing can be said to be as good as it gets." ”

Su Mao bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, the minister wants to impeach His Majesty for trying the case in the Shuntian Mansion, and also impeach Your Majesty for changing the Da Ming Law without permission."

The ancients had a cloud, the son of a daughter does not sit in the court, and His Majesty's body of ten thousand gold participated in a civil brawl, which was already inappropriate, and His Majesty overstepped his authority and tried civil cases without permission.

His Majesty said before that there is a law that must be followed, but His Majesty himself regarded the law of the Ming Dynasty as nothing, and he should have been hanged, but he should be sentenced to palace punishment and beheading.

I hope Your Majesty will think twice about these two items. ”

Emperor Chongzhen snorted, but said: "I already know, if Su Aiqing has nothing to do, I will talk about it later." ”

Su Maoxiang really wants to say something about this fucking or a trivial matter? Lao Tzu's dignified criminal department is like this, uncle, you can't change your character?

If Emperor Chongzhen knew what Su Maoxiang was thinking, he would definitely tell him that he couldn't.

Since Su Maoxiang does not belong to the eunuch party, nor does he belong to the Zhejiang party, the Chu party, and the Donglin party, he is a loner, and he never forms a gang, this kind of official is most valued by Emperor Chongzhen, so even Su Mao wants to impeach himself.

Seeing that the other courtiers didn't jump out to speak again, Emperor Chongzhen simply said, "Declare the decree." ”

Today's Emperor Chongzhen has been constantly reminiscing and imitating, and at this time he has more and more momentum as Kang Mazi played by Chen Daoming.

When Wang Chengen heard this, he took the holy decree, took a few steps forward and unfolded it, and said loudly: "Your Majesty has a decree, and the hundred officials will listen quietly."

Fengtian carried the emperor, and said: I have heard that the world is governed by literature, and the chaos is fought by force. I also heard that the way to govern the country lies in the combination of civil and military rule. In the past, there were clouds in the "Sima Law", although the world was safe, it would be dangerous to forget the war.

He ordered the re-establishment of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies and the re-establishment of military law. Since then, regardless of all cases involving the military and civilians, all matters involving soldiers on duty will not be subject to the Ming Law.

Emperor Taizu Gao said: The power is not dedicated to one division, and the matter is not left in the shadows.

According to his order, the military department no longer has the right to transfer troops to war, and it is under the command of the five military governors.

Chin this. ”

The effect of Wang Chengen's recitation of Emperor Chongzhen's will was tantamount to dropping a depth charge into the water.

Chen Bingjun, the imperial historian, went out first and said: "Your Majesty, Chen Bingjun, there are also clouds in "Sima Law", although the country is big, it will die if it is warlike.

If it has been peaceful for a long time, and the people are at peace, His Majesty has returned to the military power in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and no one can control its power, then the world will be in turmoil. ”

Zhu Zhicheng also came out of the class to give the matter: "Your Majesty, the ministers also think it is inappropriate, the warriors are warlike, their power is too great, and the disaster of the Tang Domain Town is born." ”

The right governor Yu Shi Xuduan also bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the minister also thinks it is inappropriate."

The minister knew that His Majesty was for the affairs of Liaodong and Shaanxi, and wanted to re-establish the governor's office of the five armies, but once the five armies were out, it would be easy to give birth to the cauldron of the feudal town. Even if there is no cauldron of the feudal town, there is also the risk of strong Han warlords fighting endlessly. ”

The officials of the fourth and fifth grades jumped out three at a time, and the bigwigs behind them were still waiting.

This matter can't be done by Emperor Chongzhen in any case, otherwise, once Emperor Chongzhen, who dares to expedition to Mongolia only by relying on the Beijing camp and the new army, has secured military power, it is estimated that the matter of tax collection should be brought up again.

In other words, if Emperor Chongzhen had tried to do business taxes, these ministers would definitely fight back, but the intensity of the attack would not be as great as this time.

From the imperial history, to the six departments, to the Inspectorate, there have already been little minions jumping out, and all the adults who don't have the first or second grades have come out to speak, but they are just trying first.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at the ministers coldly and said, "Who else?" Who is in favor? Who is against? ”

As soon as he heard the coldness in Emperor Chongzhen's words, coupled with the fact that he had communicated early last night, Wen Tiren immediately went out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the division of civil and military rule is in line with the way of yin and yang."

It is inappropriate to use martial arts, but to use literature to imperial martial arts, there are also lessons from the former Song Dynasty. ”

Liu Xingzuo, who was named the Marquis of the North, came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, the minister also agrees." Now there are wars in Liaodong and Shaanxi, and the re-establishment of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies is at this time. ”

As soon as Liu Xingzuo's voice fell, Chen Bingjun, the imperial historian, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the minister impeached Liu Xingzuo, the Marquis of Dingbei, for bewitching the people and bewitching the king, with the intention of rebellion." ”

When Emperor Chongzhen heard the impeachment of this imperial history, his eggs hurt very much.

You say that if you impeach, you will be impeached, and Lao Tzu will not take it seriously anyway.

But can you be reliable when you impeach? Conspiracy? If Liu Xingzuo can rebel, that is a big word.

Liu Xingzuo was able to go all the way from Jiannu to give up the high-ranking official Houlu and return to the Ming Dynasty, for which Liu's mother committed suicide by hanging herself.

If you can force such a person to rebel, then you, the emperor, have to do a lot of fucking things to do it?

Chen Bingjun didn't know what Emperor Chongzhen was thinking, so he just bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the minister impeached the Marquis of Dingbei, everything is true."

First, the devil confuses the people and deceives the king.

Liaodong is only a disease of scabies, and now there are North Korea and Dongjiang Town in the east. In the north, there is the Xibe Department of the Duke of Huguo, and to the west, there is the Shanhaiguan defense line.

At the same time, Liaodong is a bitter cold place, and within a few years, Jiannu will inevitably be destroyed.

As for Shaanxi, there is a trilateral governor Yang He and Shanxi and Sichuan and other places to jointly defend and defend, plus the harvest in the coming year, the land of Shaanxi will inevitably be pacified.

In this case, why is it necessary to rebuild the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies? In vain wasting the treasury.

Second, the intention is to rebel.

The Marquis of Dingbei practiced every day in the army, and invited people to buy people's hearts, and his backs have been revealed. ”

After listening to the impeachment of Chen Bingjun, Emperor Chongzhen stood up from the dragon chair and applauded while laughing: "Okay, that's a good point." Talking about Aiqing not writing some words or something, I really wronged Aiqing. ”

Seeing Chen Bingjun's ugly face, Emperor Chongzhen didn't care about it, and asked: "Chen Aiqing's impeachment of Dingbeihou for his intention to rebel, is there any evidence?" ”

Chen Bingjun bowed and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen is the imperial history, and it is the responsibility of the imperial history to hear about it, as for collecting evidence, it should naturally be done by the factory guard." ”

Emperor Chongzhen laughed and said, "What a rumor!" Good!

As soon as you Lord Chen talk nonsense, I'm going to send a factory guard to investigate the Marquis of Daming?

If there is evidence that he is plotting to rebel, if there is no evidence, how should Dingbei Hou feel in his heart? Could it be thunder and rain and dew, all of them are Jun'en?

Moreover, the Marquis of Dingbei returned from Jiannu for thousands of miles, and Liu's mother also committed suicide because of this, if he is loyal, can he Liu Xingzuo rebel?

Just, even if he wants to rebel, who will he communicate with? How much does it cost? When to do something? ”

Seeing that Chen Bingjun was speechless, Emperor Chongzhen opened his mouth and asked: "According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, those who make false accusations will be given a hundred rods and will be imprisoned for three years." Chen Aiqing is ready to go. ”

As soon as Emperor Chongzhen's words fell, the Jinyi Wei Han general in the main hall stepped forward and dragged Chen Bingjun towards the outside of the hall.

Chen Bingjun struggled, but he was so angry that he shouted: "Since ancient times, there has not been a person who has been convicted for his words, why is Your Majesty so harsh!" ”

Emperor Chongzhen smiled and said, "You will set this precedent for the ages!" ”
