Chapter 049: The government and the opposition are shaken

"It can't be! It's absolutely impossible! Zhang Weixian looked at Zhao Zongwu with a gloomy expression, but said in a very firm tone: "Not long ago, this prince ordered Yousi to deal with the drought in Shaanxi, and Hu Tingyan also swore in a letter that he would handle all matters in Shaanxi. ”

As the competent state minister in charge of the people's livelihood, there was civil unrest in Shaanxi at this time, and even the wind of riots had swept away.

No matter what you say about this, the main person who is responsible is him Zhang Weixian.

Zhao Zongwu listened to Zhang Weixian's words, frowned slightly, glanced at the ministers who were talking, and then forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and said: "Today's court meeting is over, and the cabinet is on duty to organize the follow-up. ”

After talking about this, he ignored the ministers, walked in front of Zhang Weixian and the others, frowned and whispered: "Don't talk about this here, go to Wenyuan Pavilion to distinguish the truth from the false!" ”

Although it is said that there are many contradictions between the four of them as auxiliary politicians and princes, it is not the time for such a big change in Shaanxi at this time, otherwise they will be targeted by many people.

Don't think that the current court is peaceful, but there is a turbulent internal current, and there are too many people who want to overthrow the state and auxiliary government and return to the model of the peak of civil service.

It's just that due to the current general trend, I can only temporarily lie dormant in the shadows, and I can only seek opportunities to ensure that I can kill with one blow.

Zhang Weixian, Zhu Chunchen, and Xu Xi, who were originally standing in place, quickly reacted after hearing Zhao Zongwu's reminder, especially Zhang Weixian!

The four of them were speechless all the way, and walked towards Wenyuan Pavilion with serious expressions.

As soon as he arrived at Wenyuan Pavilion, Zhang Weixian, who had a serious expression, turned his head and said to his relatives: "Look outside the door, don't let anyone approach!" ”

And Zhu Chunchen and Xu Xi are also like this.

"Tell me all, what do you think?" After entering Wenyuan Pavilion, Zhao Zongwu preached straight to the point: "This prince first declares that now is not the time to shirk responsibility, there is such a situation in Shaanxi at present, I am afraid that no one dares to joke about it."

What's more, Hu Tingyan, the governor of Shaanxi, has died, and he himself will not make such a joke, once this matter is said to be a big trouble, as an auxiliary government and a prince, no matter what position I am in, I am afraid I will not be able to get out of it! ”

Although Zhao Zongwu is the prince in charge of the Ming Dynasty's military power, due to Zhang Weixian's jealousy in their hearts, Zhao Zongwu did not really control the military power, and everything went naturally.

Therefore, there was a civil uprising in Shaanxi, no matter how much this matter was bypassed, it could not be bypassed by him Zhao Zongwu.

Hearing this, Zhang Weixian, who had thought of a lot of rhetoric in his heart, stopped talking, because he knew what Zhao Zongwu meant by saying these words.

If we say that we adopt an ostrich mentality on this matter, it is the kind that does not admit it, and I am afraid that the scale of the popular uprising, which should not be underestimated, will develop in a larger direction, and it is nothing to disturb a Shaanxi alone, if it delays the counterinsurgency and spreads its momentum to the entire Guanzhong, then it will be a big trouble!

Zhang Weixian nodded and said: "What Ding Guogong said is right, it is true that this father has done something wrong, and he should not shirk his responsibility as soon as he comes up."

In any case, the civil uprising in this land of Shaanxi is inextricably linked with this father.

According to the news that Fang Cai Bengong saw, there were many thieves in Shaanxi at this time, among which the more powerful ones were Wang Er, Wang Jiayin, Wang Ziyong and other thieves, all of whom had a tendency to advance to the Fugu area.

The current governor of Shaanxi, Hu Tingyan, was killed by a stray arrow in the process of suppressing the civil unrest, which also made Shaanxi a mess, which also gave the Shaanxi thieves an opportunity to spread their power quickly. ”

What the hell is an old oilman.

Since it is said that the matter has happened, and since the matter can no longer be shaken off, it is better to have a frank showdown and discuss with Zhao Zongwu and them how to solve the matter.

As for the current emergency situation in Shaanxi, no matter which prince of the country is, he cannot stay out of the matter.

Since he holds the top authority of the Ming Dynasty, now in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, there are unstable factors that want to overthrow the rule of the Ming Dynasty, which is definitely not allowed!

It's about their legitimacy.

If they don't take it seriously, I'm afraid no one cares about their power.

Everything in this world is relative.

Zhu Chunchen frowned and said: "The top priority now is not to talk about these things, we need to be clear at present, what should the imperial court do when such a situation occurs in Shaanxi?"

Not to mention anything else, since Shaanxi has sent such an urgent document, I am afraid that the local soldiers and horses in Shaanxi are overwhelmed, but if the imperial court transfers soldiers and horses from other places, how should we deploy them? ”

Because no one can stay out of the matter, this also made Zhu Chunchen, who is in charge of finance and taxation, and then Zhang Weixian's words began.

This is not a good family, I don't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive.

Although Zhu Chunchen relied on this authority, he placed many descendants in, and also obtained a lot of benefits in the process.

But since this work has been done, then at least to ensure that the Ming can be maintained, but the Ming is too big, he has a large number of political envoys, as well as a lot of guards, border troops and other complex military systems, plus a huge post station system to maintain, although before this Zhu Chunchen he has abolished some unnecessary post stations, the so-called streamlining of the Ming Dynasty's huge post station system, but there is still a big financial gap......

It is also because of this practice that some post guards who rely on the imperial grain to survive cannot survive.

According to Zhao Zongwu's understanding, Li Zicheng, the famous king of Chuang in later generations, was only because the post station was streamlined and he was abolished, so he joined the vigorous peasant rebel army in the late Ming Dynasty.

originally thought that Zhu Youzhen did not ascend the throne and became the emperor, I am afraid that Li Zicheng will not have this opportunity to devote himself to the vigorous peasant rebel army in the late Ming Dynasty, so that there will be no vigorous love with Chen Yuanyuan, let alone Wu Sangui's anger at the crown.

Of course.

In this life, because of his appearance, Wu Sangui has been in the Liaodong athlete's camp, receiving brutal training and education, and being with elite teenagers such as Cao Bianjiao and Cao Dingjiao.

But what he never expected was that because of the separation of powers between the public and auxiliary governments of the four countries, Zhu Chunchen would actually carry out the proposal of abolishing and streamlining the post stations, which also made many post station systems in the Ming Dynasty have been greatly impacted.

As a result, Li Zicheng, who was on an errand at Yinchuan Station, probably still had to join the vigorous peasant rebel army at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

At least when Zhao Zongwu sent people to look for them, the result was that Li Zicheng and them were not found.

The corrective nature of the general trend of history is indeed very strong.

After listening to Zhu Chunchen's words, Zhao Zongwu understood what he meant, "Cheng Guogong, not to mention anything else, just this time the Shaanxi people are in turmoil, and the imperial court's allocation of silver salaries is an indispensable existence."

In this special situation, don't think about how difficult it is for yourself, and think more about how to quell this riot as soon as possible!

Shaanxi is thousands of miles away from the capital, even if it is a quick horse, I am afraid that this time it will also delay a lot of effort, and the situation mentioned in this document may be more serious at this time. ”

Analyzing the battle situation with three ordinary people who had never fought in the war was a very uncomfortable thing for Zhao Zongwu, because they didn't understand what earth-shaking changes one day would bring, not to mention that there were many days in Shaanxi, once the army rose, it was enough to cause devastating destruction.

Why is the status of Daming in the hearts of the people declining step by step?

The most fundamental reason is that the Ming Dynasty's control over the place has reached the weakest time, and many times it is the gentry who control and oppress the place, which also makes the peasant uprising during the Chongzhen period, that is, the more suppressed the more powerful, the more people who participate in the uprising!

And this creates a very bad cycle.

Xu Xi questioned this: "Dingguo Gong, don't think that we haven't fought, we don't know about the war, even if the thieves have some power, my Ming soldiers and horses in Shaanxi are enough to resist for a while, you can't say that the thieves have rebelled, and my Ming local army will not have any reaction, right?!" ”

Ignorance......

What worries Zhao Zongwu the most in his heart still happened, what he was most disgusted with was this kind of questioning, he thought he knew something, he felt that there were big loopholes in what professional people said, but he kept firmly believing in what he said in his heart......

At the same time, when Zhao Zongwu was discussing in Wenyuan Pavilion, the officials of the imperial court, although they said that they left under the persuasion of Li Guo, a scholar on duty in the cabinet, but this person's mind was impossible to break after all, and a civil uprising broke out in Shaanxi, which was the most important thing for them.

"You say that the civil uprising broke out in Shaanxi, what is the root cause of this time? It can't be because the British didn't pay attention to the famine in Shaanxi, right? ”

"I can't say for sure, but anyway, the governor of Shaanxi, Hu Tingyan, has died, which also reflects the scale of the civil uprising from the side!"

"Alas! What happened to Daming in the past two years, why does the sky always rain so many catastrophes, and the big explosion that occurred the year before last has made the old man feel palpitations! ”

"Who's to say it isn't? In recent years, there have been one after another situations in the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that the heavens are going to come down with some revelations......"

Because of the drastic changes in Shaanxi, the ministers of the DPRK and China also discussed this, and many small forces gathered together to discuss such a thing, and in just half an hour, the news of the outbreak of the civil uprising in Shaanxi spread throughout the capital.

In the inner circle of the capital, there are no secrets that can be passed on from one to another, because there are microphones everywhere that can transmit messages, and because of this, the people of the capital are also in shock.
