At this time, the Forbidden City was already white tiles with red walls, and Lu Yuan seemed to have entered a glass world as soon as he entered.

Lu Yuan always felt that the snowy Forbidden City was the most beautiful.

If you can stop under the red plum on this vermilion wall and watch the snow on the jade fence, it is simply a very elegant thing.

It's a pity that Lu Yuan knows that he is now in the Ming Dynasty, or on the eve of the fall of the Ming Dynasty, he is destined to be unable to calm his mind and watch the snow scene of the Forbidden City.

It didn't take long for Lu Yuan to see Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youzhen sitting on the dragon chair again.

Lu Yuan knelt in front of Chongzhen.

Shang Kexi also knelt down.

After shouting long live, Chongzhen stood up, came to Shang Kexi first, and asked: "Shang Kexi, you were originally my Ming general, but you rebelled and surrendered, can you be guilty?" ”

"Shang Kexi is guilty!"

Shang Kexi replied.

Chongzhen snorted: "I won't kill you!" Moreover, I still want to use you, I want you to make meritorious deeds, and let your master take a good look at how his King Zhishun treats him. ”

Shang Kexi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and hurriedly kowtowed again: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing!" ”

Chongzhen sat back on the dragon chair, he hadn't been so happy for a long time, and seeing the person who was reused by Huang Taiji trembling in front of him made him finally have a feeling of dominating the world again.

"Let's talk about it, why did Huang Taiji reuse you and crown you king, in your opinion, Jiannu has the heart to seize the world?"

At this time, Chongzhen asked again.

Lu Yuan raised his eyes and glanced at Shang Kexi, thinking that he had guessed correctly, this Chongzhen saw that Shang Kexi was going to ask about Jiannu.

Shang Kexi had already received Lu Yuan's instructions before, and he also knew that he now wanted Emperor Chongzhen to know Emperor Jiannu's ambitions.

So, Shang Kexi hurriedly replied:

"Back to Your Majesty, Jiannu has been suffering from the thick walls of my Daming City, and can not easily knock on the pass, the small and Kong Youde, Geng Jingzhong and others were the generals under Sun Yuanhua before, and they know the art of concocting cannons in the West, and Jiannu is in order to get us to cast cannons, in order to conquer my Daming Pass in the future, and seek to seize the world, so he was sealed as the king of the inferior class!

In addition, Huang Taiji intends to build the Eight Banners of the Han Dynasty, in order to use the Han people to unify the world in the future, so he reuses the ministers, etc., and the purpose is also to do it to the Liaodong Guanning Army, in order to occupy the land of Liaodong without a fight in the future, and then imitate the Yuan Dynasty to destroy the Southern Song Dynasty, and use the Han Dynasty to destroy my Ming Dynasty, such as Zhang Hongfan who was not sent to the Yuan Dynasty, after all, it is not enough to swallow the whole world with the people of the Jiannu clan, and the Huang Taiji wants to be the co-master of the world, so he naturally intends to use all ethnic groups in the world. ”

The more Chongzhen listened, the more ugly his face became, and for a while the iron fist was clenched very tightly, and he said coldly: "You mean, he Huang Taiji wants to be Kublai Khan?" ”

Shang Kexi sensed Chongzhen's dissatisfaction, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Your Majesty is angry!" The little one is also telling the truth, he Huang Taiji has been called the emperor, and the founding name is Qing, this is the proof! ”

"Humph! He Jiannu is just Hu Lu wants to be my lord of China, it's just wishful thinking! My Ming Dynasty is not a corner of the Southern Song Dynasty! ”

After Chongzhen spoke, he said and looked at all the civil and military officials present: "I heard it, this Huang Taiji wants me to be the king of the dead country, let you and others be the ministers of the dead country, this person's ambition is really not small, Liu Aiqing, if Jiannu really wants to enter the customs again, how should he be crowned?" ”

Liu Yuliang hurriedly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the reason why Jiannu dared to enter the customs and plunder: first, Jiannu has now conquered the Mongolian tribes, so he can make a detour through Mongolia to enter the customs, so as to avoid the Ningjin defense line;

Second, since Phi Dao, Denglai and other places did not set up camps, resulting in no longer the power to contain Jiannu, in the past, Jiannu did not dare to enter the customs for fear that the troops of Phi Dao and Denglai would attack and disturb their rear;

Therefore, the minister believes that on the one hand, on the one hand, it is necessary to stir up the contradictions between Manchu and Mongolia, and on the other hand, when the coastal defense battalions are re-established in the area of Denglai and Phi Dao, once the Jiannu enter the customs and plunder, they will quickly send elite troops to attack and harass their rear! So that Jiannu had to return to his rear. ”

Chongzhen nodded after hearing this, and looked at Yang Sichang again: "Yang Aiqing, what do you think?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister just thought about it, although Jiannu is more threatening than the thief, but the minister still advocates peace with Jiannu, although Jiannu has the ambition to seize the world, but now I have the people's livelihood in the Ming Dynasty, the treasury is scarce, I can only negotiate peace with Jiannu first, in order to seek a period of stability, restore the people's livelihood! Recharge your batteries! Only after completely eradicating the thieves can we stabilize the rear and fight a decisive battle with Jiannu! ”

Yang Sichang replied at this time.

Lu Yuan didn't say a word after hearing this, but he had to admit that Yang Sichang was still more accustomed to paying attention to dealing with thieves, maybe it had something to do with his father's death because of the thieves, but he also felt that Yang Sichang was also reasonable.

Lu Yuan felt that it was not a way to deal with Jiannu and free hands to deal with domestic thieves first, but the problem was that Jiannu was obviously not willing to negotiate peace with Daming, if he was Huang Taiji, he would definitely prefer to enter the customs from time to time and let Daming's blood go, unless you Daming can afford to send enough money and food to the population, but then the court will still raise energy and fart, which is no different from letting Jiannu enter the customs and loot.

Chongzhen noticed Lu Yuan's disapproving expression, so he asked, "Lu Qing, what do you think?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister is a military general, he doesn't understand this, he only knows how to kill the enemy and kill the general, but just now I heard what the two elders said, the minister knows that the court will have to fight with Jiannu sooner or later, and it is okay to negotiate peace, strengthen the defense of Denglai and Phi Dao, and the minister should be diligent in training as a military general, so as to resist Jiannu in the future!"

Lu Yuan replied.

"Good!"

Chongzhen was very satisfied with Lu Yuan's answer, and hurriedly praised: "I have made up my mind, pass on the decree, reward Lu Qing with 10,000 taels of silver, and praise his Jinzhou merit!" The military department discussed its merits, and the reward was generous, Yuan Fu, according to your opinion, where should Shandong add a battalion? ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that when the Pingshan battalion should be added, in order to defend Caoyun, if Jiannu enters Jiannu Shandong, there will be Jiama Camp in the north, Pingshan Camp in the south, and Linqing will have Linqing Deputy General Soldier Yizheng Barracks, just Gongwei Shandong Section Caoyun!"

Liu Yuliang replied.

"Quasi-play! The military department immediately inscribed the script, added the Pingshan battalion, and landed the Pingshan battalion in Yuanzhang! ”

Chongzhen said.

Lu Yuan also hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

Then, Chongzhen looked at Liu Yuliang again: "Ai Qingyan strengthens the defense of Denglai, how to strengthen it?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the Wendeng camp should be re-established, as far as the minister knows, the Wendeng camp was set up to prevent the Japanese, and now it is just used to prevent Jiannu from attacking from the sea, and at the same time, it also happens to strengthen the coastal defense between Wendeng and Weihaiwei."

Liu Yuliang replied.

"Quasi-play! According to Qing, who is in charge of the He clan in Wendeng Camp? ”

Chongzhen asked.

Liu Yuliang glanced at Shang Kexi: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister has the courage to ask Your Majesty to enable Shang Kexi, although this person is a general, he has offended Jiannu, and this person was from Mao Dudu in his early years, and he knew about the battle to disturb Jiannu's rear!" ”

Chongzhen glanced at Shang Kexi, and finally couldn't think of an inappropriate point: "Quasi-play!" ”
