Of course, nothing can be as beautiful as Yuan Chonghuan thought, and it is impossible for everything to be based on Emperor Chongzhen's ideas. Just when Chongzhen was about to sharpen his knife to Yuan Chonghuan, a letter from Ma Weiqiu, the prefect of Xi'an, directly pushed Chongzhen's heart to the bottom.

"The minister of Xi'an, Ma Weiqiu, risked his life to worship His Majesty: In March of the first year of Chongzhen, the whole Shaanxi sky was as red as blood, there was no rain in the drought, the people's hearts were fluctuating, and the poor harvest of grain was a foregone conclusion. The minister is incompetent, but please Your Majesty to deal with it as soon as possible. ”

Looking at Wen Tiren, Shi Fenglai and other ministers and the leaders of the factory and the guards in front of him, Chongzhen motioned to Wang Chengen to pass the fold to Wen Tiren and the others, and then said: "All Aiqing will talk about it first, what kind of charter should be made for this matter, and Ming'er will discuss it in the court, and how to deal with it if it is decided earlier." ”

Wen Tiren said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that you can first transfer some grain to the past, and then the local government will organize the people to dig wells and get water to save themselves, and it will be okay." In addition, His Majesty can exempt Shaanxi from paying taxes for three years, so that the people can know that His Majesty loves the people. ”

Chongzhen asked Shi Fenglai: "What do you think of Shi Aiqing?" ”

Shi Fenglai said: "Your Majesty, the minister also agrees with what Lord Wen said. It's just that this exemption from taxation still needs to be considered. ”

Chongzhen heard this, but he was a little curious. Later generations have seen a lot of behaviors in TV dramas that are exempt from taxes and buy people's hearts, why did Shi Feng have to consider it when he came here? He immediately asked, "Why?" Isn't the three-year tax exemption an act of love for the people? ”

Shi Fenglai said: "Your Majesty, this tax is inevitable, the people below have to collect it, and the collection belongs to the state, so it will not be persecuted too much." If this tax is exempted, the income of the people below will fall into their own pockets, and it will inevitably be taken advantage of by some petty people. ”

Chongzhen sighed, but remembered the Chang Ping arranged a year ago and asked the Nanyang countries to pay tribute and trade grain, so he asked: "What happened to the Chang Ping arranged a year ago?" Shaanxi is full of regular positions? ”

Wen Tiren replied: "Your Majesty, according to the situation reported below, it should be full." It's just that there is water in it, but it's hard to say. ”

Chongzhen turned his head to look at Xu Xianchun and asked, "Where is Jinyiwei?" ”

When Xu Xianchun heard this, he bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, judging from the feedback from hundreds of households in various places below, the positions in Shaanxi are often closed, and there are full, and there are more dissatisfied. Most of them were resold privately. As for the whereabouts, they are being traced. ”

Chongzhen laughed and said, "It's good." What did I say a few years ago? The treasury used the money to buy the food for the people to prepare for emergencies, and they dared to resell it like this? Just to make money? What a big dog guts! ”

Wen Tiren, Wei Zhongxian and the others hurriedly bowed down and said, "The emperor is angry. ”

Wen Tiren said: "The emperor is angry, this matter, the ministers and other ministers are not effective in supervision, and they are also responsible, and the ministers will organize people to go down to investigate, and they will definitely give Your Majesty and the people of the world an explanation." ”

Chongzhen sneered: "There is no need to check. Xu Xianchun. ”

When Xu Xianchun heard this, he bowed down and said, "The minister is here." ”

Chongzhen sneered: "Sort out the list of these bastards, and arrest people according to the list, the three clans." One less, I'm the only one you ask. Tian Ergeng. ”

Tian Ergeng also hurriedly bowed down and said, "The minister is here." ”

Chongzhen continued: "Let me keep an eye on the civil affairs in Shaanxi, let the people over there be careful, and report anything wrong immediately." I allow you to enter the palace late at night and play right. ”

Tian Ergeng said: "The minister obeys the order." ”

Chongzhen didn't look at Tian Ergeng, and looked at Wei Zhongxian again: "The people and horses of your West Factory will also be scattered." Keep an eye on Shaanxi, whether it is the lawlessness of Jinyiwei or any disturbances among the people, they will report it to me. If it's wrong, watch out for your dog's head. ”

When Wei Zhongxian heard this, he also hurriedly knelt on the ground, showing his loyalty: "The emperor can rest assured, the slave and maid will definitely be staring at the death, if anyone dares to commit it, the slave and maid will definitely report back to the emperor as soon as possible." ”

After some arrangements, Chongzhen said: "Ming'er has arrived at the court, and then I will discuss what kind of charter should be made for this Shaanxi disaster relief." I have one request, I can't let a common man starve to death in Shaanxi, let alone make any trouble! ”

It was only at the court meeting the next day that Chongzhen deeply realized the shamelessness of the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty.

As soon as he finished talking about the drought in Shaanxi, Yu Shi immediately jumped out: "Your Majesty, the minister risked death to admonish." The minister thought that since His Majesty's reign, there have been many killings, and even the nine clans have been punished at every turn, which is a warning from God to His Majesty. ”

Chongzhen was laughed at angrily, warning your uncle, a little natural disaster is thinking about deducting shit basins on the emperor's head, right?

Although Chongzhen was furious in his heart at the moment, he still smiled and said: "Then according to Aiqing's opinion, I am guilty of self-edict at the moment?" ”

As soon as the three words of the guilty edict came out, Hulala knelt down in the court, and the ministers all shouted under the leadership of Shoufu Wen Tiren: "The ministers are waiting for ten thousand deaths." ”

Chongzhen didn't shout flat, let the ministers kneel, and sneered: "Heaven warns? Does this mean that I have lost my morality? ”

When the imperial historian heard this, he took off his official hat, put it on the ground, and kowtowed: "The minister doesn't dare." It's just that the minister thinks that His Majesty should be the heart of heaven and reflect on himself, so that the wind and rain can be smooth. ”

Chongzhen sneered: "I will never give an edict, is it because I have lost my morality?" I retired Jiannu, is it a loss of morality? ”

When the ministers heard this, they said in unison: "Your Majesty is wise and merciful, long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”

Chongzhen ignored the sycophants of the monarch and ministers, and continued: "The place where I lose virtue is that I have killed too many people? Then my Imperial Master came to tell me, which one is not worthy of death? Is he Zhou Yanru not deserving to die? Or don't those two people who are harvested and tortured deserve to die? Or is he Zhang Pu not deserving to die? ”

Then how is Yushi a fool? How can you not hear the murderous aura in Chongzhen's tone? Immediately, he said: "The minister is guilty, and the minister is afraid." ”

Chongzhen continued: "What are you afraid of? If I give you the scepter today, I'm afraid that you will be able to gain a reputation for being a blunt offender tomorrow, right? You can't see the drought in Shaanxi, you can't see the corruption of officials, but you can see how many damned people I killed? In that case, I have fulfilled you! ”

After speaking, he ignored the frightened expression of the imperial history, and said directly to Wei Liangqing: "Pick up his official uniform, drag it out, and the court staff is eighty." ”.

What kind of good thing is Wei Liangqing? As the son of Wei Zhongxian, he had already cleared the door of figuring out the intentions, and immediately received the order: "The minister obeys the order." After saying that, he brought a few Jinyi Wei Han generals and dragged this imperial history out.

After a while, Wei Liangqing came to report: "Your Majesty, Lord Yushi has already gone after being punished." ”

Chongzhen looked at the ministers who were still kneeling on the ground and said, "Zi is silent, strange and confused, have you forgotten?" Since I have been appointed by Heaven to be the Son of Heaven, and I have no immorality, will Heaven blame me well? Think carefully about how to get the things I have told you to do properly. Whoever dares to pull something about what they don't have, be careful that this is an example! ”
